body.txt => body.ini

[NoQ]

Does anybody have an automated converter to turn 2.3/3.1-style body.txt file into a 3.2-style body.ini? If not, how was the body.ini file made, anyway?
Cause i wanted to run it on the Contingency mod to try it out on master.

If nobody has it, making a shell script for this shouldn't be hard, i could try.
Of course it has to look up the names.txt file as well.

No ! I have it, or at least I have the scripts to create the converter speedily. But I wont. The reason being : it multiply by 10x the size of the mods unnecessarily.

Asking the devs for the removal of body.ini would be faster and saner than to ask them for a script.

faster

srsly?

I repeat: i'm not asking anybody to make a script, i can make one myself, i just don't want to re-do that if it already exists.

[Iluvalar]

Per asked me to do it, so I suppose nobody have one...

I guess, diy is always faster than asking for devs .

But then, reverting to the 3.1 body reader in your master should still be easier than to write the converting script. (for .ini files that will probably be reverted imho)

[Per]

I made one out of sed, arp and grep, but I don't have it anymore.

I don't think you can just revert without losing functionality.

Ok, will have a try soon (:

If you make a converter, please let me know as I'll add links to the modding wiki.

I documented the two files a while back if that's any use: body.txt & body.ini

EDIT: Hrm, looks like I didn't actually document body.txt and just pasted in a link to some existing docs. Will try and get my docs updated in next 48 hours.

Ok this almost works. Now, how do i guess droidType? I mean, it can't be guessed, right? That's exactly what we loose when we try to get back to .txt?

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
BODYTXT="$1"
NAMESTXT="$2"

function catcmd {
	cat $BODYTXT | tr " " "_" | tr "," " " | tail -n +2 | tr -d "\r"
}

function ntharg {
	n=$(( ($1 + 1) ))
	echo ${!n}
}

function getarg {
	echo `ntharg $*` | tr "_" " "
}

LIST=`catcmd | awk '{print $1}'`

for body in $LIST; do
	echo "[$body]"
	name=`cat $NAMESTXT | tr "\t" " " | tr -s [:blank:] | grep ^$body" " | sed s/"$body"// | tr -d '()_'`
	echo "name ="$name
	stats=`catcmd | grep ^$body`
	echo "size = "`getarg 3 $stats`
	echo "buildPower = "`getarg 4 $stats`
	echo "buildPoints = "`getarg 5 $stats`
	echo "weight = "`getarg 6 $stats`
	echo "hitpoints = "`getarg 7 $stats`
	echo "model = "`getarg 8 $stats | tr " " "_"`
	echo "weaponSlots = "`getarg 10 $stats`
	echo "powerOutput = "`getarg 11 $stats`
	echo "armourKinetic = "`getarg 12 $stats`
	echo "armourHeat = "`getarg 13 $stats`
	flameModel=`getarg 24 $stats`;
	if [ "$flameModel" != "0" ]; then
		echo "flameModel = "$flameModel
	fi
	designable=`getarg 25 $stats`
	if [ "$designable" = "1" ]; then
		echo "designable = true"
	else
		echo "designable = false"
	fi
	if [ "`echo $name | grep Transport`" != "" ]; then
		echo "droidType = TRANSPORTER"
	elif [ "`echo $name | grep Engineer`" != "" ]; then
		echo "droidType = CYBORG_CONSTRUCT"
	elif [ "`echo $name | grep Mechanic`" != "" ]; then
		echo "droidType = CYBORG_REPAIR"
	elif [ "`echo $body | grep Cyb | grep Hvy`" != "" ]; then
		echo "droidType = CYBORG_SUPER"
	elif [ "`echo $body | grep Cyb`" != "" ]; then
		echo "droidType = CYBORG"
	elif [ "`echo $body | grep Person`" != "" ]; then
		echo "droidType = PERSON"
	fi
	echo
done

Invocation example:

Code: Select all

~/bin/script.sh stats/body.txt messages/strings/names.txt > stats/body.ini

upd: now this works with the current data, but guessing droidType based on some other mod's data may still be quite inaccurate.

upd: fixed some dos-style newline trouble that caused the script to fail to understand the "designable" property, which is the last one in every line.
