getTokens() getting Objects?

[Tanthos]

Been struggling with the conditions on the getTokens() function so that I can get tokens from the Object layer as part of a looting macro. Unfortunately, no matter how precise I am with my json conditions, it never works. Is this broken, or is there some trick to it?

Code: Select all

[h:cond = "{}"]
[h:cond = json.set(cond,"layer",json.append("","OBJECT"))]


[h: rawList=listSort(getTokens(",",cond),"A")]
[h:tokenList = ""]
[h,FOREACH(token,rawList), CODE:
{
[if(hasProperty("Items",token)==1):tokenList = listAppend(tokenList,token)]
}]
[r:tokenList]

I've tested your code to get the token name:

Code: Select all

[h:cond = "{}"]
[h:cond = json.set(cond,"layer",json.append("","OBJECT"))]


[r: rawList=listSort(getTokens(",",cond),"A")]

and it did work fine (I had placed one object on the OBJECT layer, and it's ID was displayed on the chat). As a general troublshooting step, if you think a specific function is not working as expected, remove the rest of the macro and set the suspected function to show some output (like I did "[r: rawList=listSort(getTokens(",",cond),"A")]")

So the problem does not come from getTokens(), but from the code you've placed afterwards. Maybe the objects you have placed do not have the Items property ?

Hope that helps.

Btw ... you sort a list of token Ids ... why? I suppose you want to use Wiki: getTokenNames()?

Haha! You're right. I accidentally leftover the sort from previously when I used Names.

Also, it works now. I don't know what I did, but I just dropped a token into object like you guys said and ran it again. I think that updating the property type containing the property Items may have done it. It's the only thing I did differently.
