    The "newline" option doesn't actually format the text in the file as a "linebreak" or "carriage return". I think KodeMonkee and myself are wondering if there is a way to format the actual output with a carriage return, since "newline" doesn't actually add another line in the output. I guess it puts a special character there for reading information back into C2, however opening the file with notepad reveals that all inputs are in a single long line. We both need something that will format the text into new lines when viewed in notepad/wordpad.

  • I happen to have a requirement for this also... calling all super-smart people!

    ~Sol

  • Sounds great man

    I will wait to see what you come up with!

  • Hi HMMG

    This is great news that you will be updating the plugin with a new version. I was wondering how progress is going so far, since I have run into new issues with the current plugin (mainly inserting rows if row 0 is selected, it seems to yield strange results).

    If there is anything I can do to help the process (make a donation?) then please let me know. This plugin has become a critical now to development, and while I can work-around most of the minor issues that have appeared... the new version sounds like it will be super-awesome!

    Thanks

  • No rush at all mate. Much appreciate you taking the time to build this wonderful plugin.

    One question I have also regarding this plugin however... If I use a "theme" for the table, then any CSS code used to style the cells or rows seems to be over-ridden by the "theme". In order to use CSS styling at runtime (to change selected row, etc) there has to be no active per-determined theme selected. Is this the intended function?

    Cheers!

    I used your plugin Version 1.3.

    It´s working nice in preview but sadly it crashes on export for Html or for NWjs.

    Error in NWjs:

    "undefined is not a function" in c2runtime

    Error in Web:

    Uncaught TypeError: $(...).tf is not a function

    If i click the c2runtime in webinspector console, it marks the following line

    (case 1:e="blackice";break;case 2:e="blue";break;case 3:e="bootstrap";break;case 4:e="bootstrap_2";break;case 5:e="dark";break;case 6:e="default";break;case 7:e="dropbox";break;case 8:e="green";break;case 9:e="grey";break;case 10:e="ice";break;case 11:e="jui";break;default:e="default"}console.log(e);$(d.g.table).tf({Du:e})}else $(d.g.table).tf().removeClass("tablesorter-default");else if(0<d.j[15]){switch(d.j[15]){case 0:e="none";break;case 1:e="blackice";break;case 2:e="blue";break;case 3:e="bootstrap";)[/code:386f49hx]

@hmmg
The option "allow sort" is the bad guy here 
if "allow sort" is true => the exported project crashes with the above error
if "allow sort" is false => everything is fine

It would be great if you can handle this

    I get this error also. Maybe once HMMG is back from his holiday he can look into it?

  • Hi HMMG,

    Thank you for the reply! I will check into it and let you know how I go. Much appreciate it. I must have overlooked the subtext option, I thought that I tried that but perhaps I was doing it wrong (I do most things wrong, lol).

    Thanks again

  • Hi HMMG,

    Great plugin, this is exactly what I need for my current project however I have a question regarding setting data to a specific cell in the table/list.

    How do I do that exactly? lol... I can't seem to figure out how to specify the exact cell I want to target to set or get data from. I can add entire rows easily enough, with columns separated by the integrated token value, but I'm not sure how to jump to a specific cell to say for example, add the values of an entire column together for output to another list, or to edit a value.

    Any help you can offer or explain will be appreciated.

    Thanks!

  • Hi Ashley, yes long time indeed! Too long in fact...

    I have decided to take the NW.JS route, as it's going to perform in a manner that will be more suited to the idea that I'm working on.

    The main issue I have with using localstorage, for this project, is that localstorage is limited and also not easily backed-up and re-distributed. The software I'm attempting to build will be for a Point of Sale (POS) system... so having complete control over data amounts and placement into folders is going to be paramount. Kinda makes me miss the old CC, but really loving the new additions to C2. You guys have come a long way, and it's just getting better!

    One question I do have related to this however... is if there are any plans or perhaps known existing plugins that would allow for a file listing (like the listbox objects from VB for example). Essentially a cross between a textbox and a combobox that I could reference individual lines, and/or interface with the individual lines via mouse input? So far it looks like I will have to build something out of dynamically created and assigned text fields and text boxes... which is going to get really messy, really fast.

    I guess being out of the loop for so long has come back to burn me!

    *EDIT*

    After looking around for a while, reading a few things and just taking a browse through the plugins section... I found this:

    Gonna check it out and see if it does the job. If so, some sort of form control illustrated in the example would be awesome to have as a more official addition to C2.

    ~Sol

  • So it seems, like usual "me" fashion... I should be really looking at NW.js options for data control, since that's going to suit what I want to do far more easily I believe.

    Thanks to Kyatric for pointing this out to me in our skype conversation.

    If anyone however, still has input or information regarding my above methods... I am still interested in seeing what options are available, as in, what is possible and what isn't. Having the data stored on a cloud service would be beneficial, but it's not critical... so NW.js may be just the solution I was after the entire time.

  • Hi guys and gals,

    It's been a long while since I've posted here on the boards, so I hope all of you are doing well.

    I have recently picked up C2 again to see how far it has come (I was a CC addict) once more, with intent on making some slightly, non-standard production to help out a friend.

    The main requirement for this project is data handling (storage and recovery) since a portion of the software will be keeping information (text/images) that need to be run-time creatable/editable, then be able to save and commit changes to disk and later recall them easily.

    I have been reading up on the new data objects such as Dictionary, LocalStorage, and the good ole Array... as well as AJAX. Like the noob that I am, I've gotten stuck with a few things. Even tutorials various people have created have left me with unanswered questions, and some of the methods that are used in the tutorials don't seem to function any more (I guess mostly due to depreciated methods and objects).

    --------------

    I have so far successfully managed to pull text data from sevel editable textbox objects and produce a JSON string from the data. I am falling over when it comes to "saving" the data, since there is only the "download" function that requires user input to path the data to a certain location (and no way to point to that same location for re-opening). It really makes me miss the way array saving/loading to plain text used to work in CC, and wonder further why this option has been removed in C2?

    I then began to look at AJAX, for perhaps uploading the JSON data to cloud storage, then retrieving it when requested... but I think I'm doing something wrong (obviously, this is me we're talking about).

    In a nutshell, what would anyone recommend for being able to store data entered in several textbox objects, display this data in a list of some sort (so you can click on it and edit/view the attached data), and obviously recall the data into the same textboxes where it was originally entered for editing/viewing purposes?

    So far I have a dictionary object, and 4 text boxes that generate a JSON string which can be "downloaded". Is there a way to either commit these strings to a local storage (specified drive and directory, NOT web/storage folder in the browser!) or to use AJAX and upload them to say, DropBox, and reliably recall them later?

    Thanks in advance... not using this software for such a long time hasn't made this any easier... but any help or general information would be greatly appreciated.

  • Thanks for the feedback clodius666 :D

    Yes you're right, the faster you go the less your tires "grip" on the front. I added this so that driving on various surfaces are achieved, but didn't spend a lot of time messing with the values to make it feel like a solid road. Kind of feels like loose dirt to me ;)

    I will be certainly working on this more, since it will be a core component of a game idea I'm working on right now with two other board members. As I add to it and improve it, I will update this example file.

    The main thing I need to do is (as you mentioned) reverse the steering for when you reverse the car, and add some variables with a label that makes some sort of sense for adjusting the driving motion easier.

    This small cap was the product of two entire days almost, of fluffing about with different ideas and techniques. I think it could be made a bit nicer using separate tire objects, but it tends to offer more problems than it's worth. I figured it would be "good enough" for most arcade feeling racing games, or games where cars are not the main focus but still need to feel "nice".

    Anyway, glad you like it and thanks again for the input :)

    Live on CC!

  • Hey tulamide :D

    Glad you like it. I'm still planning on improving it, and adding some variables that make more sense than random numbers scattered everywhere.

    I will notify the thread of any update, but will use the same link to replace the existing download.

  • Hi all,

    It's been a while since I've been active on the forums... but I've been working on some things.

    I wanted to share my custom overhead view car movement, made using the Physics behaviour and a single "body" for the car.

    You can easily tack on wheels or other parts for cosmetic reasons, and use the "single body" for all driving and collisions.

    There are a lot of numbers you can adjust to tweak the settings and general feel of the car. Sorry, there is no easy way to explain these until I eventually change them to variables with a descriptor. For now it will be trial and error if you wish to adjust anything. :)

    Controls are:

    W,S,A,D for accelerate, stop/reverse, and turning

    Spacebar is handbrake
