I guess you can do use os.remove() with the name of the file before starting the logger.

aha, good plan

ive sorted the pathing stuff in the server.. i can now use self.GetFaPath() to return the fa path ...

ive used the code from the link you posted to store the install path using :

Code: Select all

settings = QtCore.QSettings("ForgedAllianceEditor", "FA Editor")
        settings.beginGroup("ForgedAllianceEditor")
        settings.setValue("app/path", path)
        settings.endGroup()
        settings.sync()

doing the pathing in the server means i can now store the "mission templates" in fapath\templates\scenid\
and i can then save the actual map to the \maps\eow_***\ folder.

hmm,

os.remove doesnt work, the server spews an error, however i cannot see the error as the window closes to fast,
how can i see errors when they occure?

Code: Select all

sverpath = os.getcwd()
    cpath = os.path.join(sverpath, "miniserver.log")

    if os.path.isfile(cpath):
        os.remove(cpath)

here is the code im using.

never mind moved that code into the _logger.py file and it now works..

ok last question,

how do i override a function in fa so it can recieve data from the server.. i need to set the fa path in fa, i guess the only way to do this is to overload
a medial function..

hi Zep,

is it possible for me to write inside the scenario table from the miniserver?

so say ive sent { me = 1 you = 2 }

how can i add they = 3 to that table in the miniserver code.

thanks.

Dave.

As they are LUA table, not easily.

I would need an actual example of a table and what you are expecting as a result.

its ok if its not an easy task, ill just add to the table before i send to the server, i was just wanting a quick and easy way
to add any kind of data to the table before it is written to disk.. so then i can just send commands like gpgnetsend(id, table1, table2) and add other things in the server, like change a table ect.. but like i say its cool i can do it in fa.

here is the the server code so far, ive umm added quite a bit, but its all easy stuff for pathing/saving/removing.

today i changed tons of code in fa, to reflect the changes made in the server code. its an ongoing process atm,
converting/saving and backing up is all changed and working now thankfully.. ive also condensed tons of other code.
its slow atm.. :/

It's possible, The lobby has a lua parser/dumper for map/mod vault and GW, but I have to check if it can run one of your table correctly.
