Hi all. I was wondering about this code that i put in the area script place:

#include "events_h"
#include "wrappers_h"
#include "utility_h"
void main()
{
    event ev = GetCurrentEvent();
    int nEventType = GetEventType(ev);
    switch(nEventType)
    {
         case EVENT_TYPE_AREALOAD_POSTLOADEXIT:
         {
             object OHero = GetHero();
     DisplayFloatyMessage(OHero, "loaded", FLOATY_MESSAGE, 16777125, 30.0);
       CreateItemOnObject(R"item.uti", OHero);
            break;
         }
    }
    HandleEvent(ev, RESOURCE_SCRIPT_AREA_CORE);
    }

i was hoping that this would display a floaty message and create an object on the player after i loaded the module in the game but nothing happens. the functions are activated from conversation so i'm not sure what's wrong here.

Hold on a second.



You said you put this in the area script place, and it looks like an area script, and then you said you wanted the item to spawn when you load the module.



Do you want the item to spawn when the player enters a specific area? Or do you want to make the item appear if he enters the game with the module loaded?



Ciao, muh!

yes the latter i want the item to appear when the player enters the game with the module loaded.

Ah-ha!

Then you don't want an area script, you want a module script. There's actually a really good and simple tutorial on how to do just that here:

It will also make sure that you get only 1 item, and not an additional copy every time you load a game.

Ciao, muh!

well the point was to see if EVENT_TYPE_AREALOAD_POSTLOADEXIT was working or how it was working.

If you just want the code to be executed when the module is enabled, you can just use something like this inside your module script:

void main()
{
event ev = GetCurrentEvent();
int nEventType = GetEventType(ev);
if ((nEventType == EVENT_TYPE_MODULE_START ) || (nEventType == EVENT_TYPE_MODULE_LOAD ))
{
//Put the code you want to execute when the module is activated here
//If you want the code to only run once for all, use a plot or a variable to store/check for the handled state.
}
}

It only works if your script is attached to the area (and both the script and area export successfully). It's also important to note that if you already entered the area in your game, then changed the area script, you will need to reload a game where you hadn't yet entered the area or the area list.

What I was wondering...



If I have a save game where I've already entered an area from a module, then load that savegame with the module disabled, save again, and then reenable the module - does the "dirty" data from the module persist in the game, or can I effectively erase everything I ever did in a module by loading a game without it?



(what a sentence O_o)

What will remain is the eventual change you've made to existing core/single player datas.
But any data defined in your module such as variables, plots, items,etc will be gone.
