script dont work

[jpcordovae]

I take a script (unit_nuke_antinuke_mark.lua) and add markers for nuke and antinuke units, but I cant find the script ni Zero-K widget list.

I save the file in directory (windows 7 btw):

C:\Users\Juan Pablo\Documents\My Games\Spring\LuaUI\Widgets

As I understand, Zero-K should take the lua script and show it in the list by himself, right ?

May be a mistake in the code can be the reason why the widget can't be loaded in widget list ?

the script is this one:

zero k blocks user widgets by default to avoid conflicts. you need to turn that on again: http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=21922

That widget might now work as good in zero k, it was probally made for xta or ba: The hardcoded names of the nuke launchers, antis etc might be different in zerok ("corsilo" etc)

[jpcordovae]

Thanks you for the post, help me a lot, but I can't find the hardcoded names, I search in spring files, but no results.

[jpcordovae]

I found hardcoded names in few scripts, you can check at http://code.google.com/p/zero-k/source/ ... n957&r=957

Anyway, I cant load any new widget.

Are you sure the new widget works?
Should try it in ie BA to be sure.
Keep asking in #zk until someone tells how to enable user widgets.

[luckywaldo7]

That widget you linked to does exactly what you are trying to do, so your effort is quite redundant :S.

It is already enabled by default so there should be no work required.

The script I show it's mine, the original is a bit shorter, but make almost the same., I think is the best way to learn, take another and add stuffs.

I Already make it work, I use another 'template' script :D, that script just don't work, I don't know why.

Read infolog.txt, hopefully there'll be an error message.

[jpcordovae]

I make it works, the problem was between kb and screen: me, like almost the time, if you see in posted code, I never put the word then after the if. Anyway, spring don't say anything about error or something like that.

I've disassembled the mod and I find all I need to make any script. It isn't clear for newb's that the mods make all the definitions of units throw .fbi files... and inside that mods you can find all you need to make any script. Probably this will help to somebody like me.

Thanks to all who help me.
