Code: Select all
function gadget:GetInfo()
return {
name = "AIinfo",
desc = "get the performance of the ai's",
author = "prandipadaro",
date = "6/6/2015",
license = "GPLv2",
layer = -1,
enabled = true -- loaded by default?
}
end
function gadget:GameOver()
print(tostring('AIFEEDBACKSTART-AIFEEDBACKSTART-AIFEEDBACKSTART-AIFEEDBACKSTART-AIFEEDBACKSTART-AIFEEDBACKSTART'))
local allTeams=Spring.GetTeamList()
for i,v in ipairs(allTeams) do
print(tostring(i),tostring(v))
local q,w,e,r,t,y=Spring.GetAIInfo(v)
print(tostring(q),tostring(w),tostring(e),tostring(r),tostring(t),tostring(y))
if q then
local max=Spring.GetTeamStatsHistory(v)
a={}
local a= Spring.GetTeamStatsHistory(v,max,max)
print (tostring(a[1].frame))
print(type(a))
for k,n in pairs(a[1]) do
print(tostring(k),tostring(n))
end
end
end
print(tostring('AIFEEDBACKSTOP-AIFEEDBACKSTOP-AIFEEDBACKSTOP-AIFEEDBACKSTOP-AIFEEDBACKSTOP-AIFEEDBACKSTOP-AIFEEDBACKSTOP'))

because its not a widget, your lua code shows it is a gadget
use widget: instead of gadget:

Make it a widget.
In addition to placing it in /spring/luaui/widgets/ you also have to replace;
gadget:GetInfo() and gadget:GameOver()
by:
widget:GetInfo() and widget:GameOver()
There's some more differences between gadget and widget, such as what info is available, or that gadget have both synced and unsynced parts while widget only have unsynced.
Some games, and IIRC in particular ZK, disable external widgets. There may be some option well hidden inside nested game menu to allow them.

so a new little question
i have write a script in /.spring/LuaUI/widgets
i need to create read and write some file in different paths
so if i use simple:
Code: Select all
local f = io.open("example", 'w+')
f:write('hello')
f:close()
all work fine and spring automatic create file in /.config/spring
but if i try to create a file in a different path:
Code: Select all
local f = io.open('/home/p/.spring/AI/Skirmish/Shard2/dev/ai/soma.lua', 'w+')
f:write('hello')
f:close()
spring give me this error:
Code: Select all
Error in Initialize(): [string "LuaUI/Widgets/aifeedback.lua"]:78: attempt to index local 'f' (a nil value)
anyone can explane me this behavior?

Iirc you only have access to the filesystem within your spring datadir, using relative paths.

ok but the path is in the spring datadir
there are a guide that explain how to move between the folders?

relative paths = paths not starting with /
i.e. /bla/bla/path is an absoulte path, when bla/bla/path is a relative path.
so for this example
/home/p/.spring/AI/Skirmish/Shard2/dev/ai/soma.lua
this is a relative path which should work:
AI/Skirmish/Shard2/dev/ai/soma.lua
