Hash Tables and Arrays Playmaker actions

[tankun]

Hi,

I'm making an adventure game with an inventory system using Playmaker & Array Maker.

I can't see any actions for saving and loading arrays or hash tables.

Am I missing something or are they not included in the Playmaker action pack?

Thanks a lot in advance,

Hi tanktun,

Easy Save can only support the variable types natively supported by Playmaker. Because Arraymaker is an addon not provided with Playmaker as default, we cannot support it.

I hope this helps.

I see,

Saving hash tables with scripting seems simple.

Isn't it technically possible to call this script from Playmaker then?

What sort of work around would you recommend?

In the end, there must be a way, right?

Hi there,

It may be possible to call this script from Playmaker, but as we have no control over this, we can't give any advice on doing so.

The documentation and examples will show you what methods are called when scripting normally, so this may help you when calling them from Playmaker.

Regards,
Joel

Ok,

I'll look into this.

Thanks a lot.

Is it possible to include this type of interaction in the near future for EasySave? I'm also working on a Arraymaker heavy playmaker project and really need the ability to save and load those arrays.

I'm afraid because Playmaker doesn't natively support arrays itself we don't currently support it. However, we'll look into adding Arraymaker support.

All the best,
Joel

ArrayMaker can be used with Easy Save 2 and Playmaker via a third party package available at https://hutonggames.fogbugz.com/default.asp?W715
