Appreciate the quick response. Will test tomorrow when I do salvage again and report back.

**Phil** · 2015-02-06 09:23

Worked. Thanks again

    return meleeSet

Well, this worked to a certain extent. AF3+2 body is equipped when impetus is up while TPing. Still no dice during WS.

randomly in the middle of Delve my Gearswap stopped working.

error is:

gearswap:lua runtime error: gearswap/flow.lua:295:
gearswap has detected an error in the user function precast:
... files [mywindowerdirectory]/SAM.lua:281: attempt to fix index field '?' (a nil value)

delve is a pain in the butt because it causes so many things to happen in a short time
so this could be the issue

the only things that could be the issue are
spell.type
world.day
spell.skillchain_a
or
check_ws_day[world.day]
but the only way to figure out what is causing the issue is to change

Code:

if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' and (check_ws_day[world.day]:contains(spell.skillchain_a) 
    or check_ws_day[world.day]:contains(spell.skillchain_b) 
    or check_ws_day[world.day]:contains(spell.skillchain_c)) then       equip (sets.WSDayBonus)
        end
    end
end

to

Code:

if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' 
and (check_ws_day[
world.day]:contains(
spell.skillchain_a)
    or check_ws_day[world.day]:contains(spell.skillchain_b)
    or check_ws_day[world.day]:contains(spell.skillchain_c)) then       equip (sets.WSDayBonus)
        end
    end
end

but there is a chance that it will error when this is put into your code
and if it is any of these its probably because of your client getting to many updates to fast
spell.type
world.day
spell.skillchain_a

but there is one more thing i want to ask what ws are you using??

and you can cut out the sets.WSDayBonus
i.e.
equip (sets.WSDayBonus)
by using
equip(head="Gavialis Helm")

Is there a way to launch a windower script txt file from within Gearswap? If so how?

that fixed it, thanks. I'm not sure why it was broken. I was working before, but then just randomly stopped. Even with unloading and reloading, restarting pol, and even turning on and off the computer. So strange. Thanks for the help!

I was getting the error with any WS btw. Even ones whose day didn't allign.

that wont fix the error just when it happens again it will tell you which one is causing the issue in other words it is actually no different then what was there in the first place

**Sithel** · 2015-02-07 01:29

Anyone else here using Mote/Kinematics THF.lua?

I tried adding a Mug set, which works and equips fine but doesn't do any type of aftercast. Doing a //gs showswaps shows it equipping as precast but that's it. Kinda strange since all my other JA precast sets are working fine with precast and aftercast.
Here's what the code looks like for that JA. And referencing his THF.lua looks like this is correct. https://github.com/Kinematics/GearSw...master/THF.lua

Code:

sets.precast.JA['Mug'] = {
		ammo="Jukukik Feather",
		head="Imp. Wing Hair. +1",
		neck="Moepapa Medal",
		ear1="Jupiter's Pearl",
		ear2="Pixie Earring",
		body="Plunderer's Vest +1",
		hands="Pill. Armlets +1",
		ring1="Ramuh Ring +1",
		ring2="Thundersoul Ring",
		back="Kayapa Cape",
		waist="Artful Belt",
		legs="Manibozho Brais",
		feet="Plun. Poulaines +1"}

Weird. It still fixed it. weird. Thanks anyway!

can you reupload your code??

and check and see if this works

Code:

    if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' then
        if check_ws_day[world.day]:contains(spell.skillchain_a)
            or check_ws_day[world.day]:contains(spell.skillchain_b)
            or check_ws_day[world.day]:contains(spell.skillchain_c) then
                equip (sets.WSDayBonus)
        end
    end

if it does it means that the interval between variables is just to fast for the way it was

also did you change
equip(sets.WSDayBonus)
to
equip(head="Gavialis Helm")

This is interesting. It stopped working again. Even though I did a few Delves and a high tier with it working fine. Now the error is on line 283.

Attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)

but then as soon as it turned to light day, it started working again.

ok i found the issue replace you code accordingly with this

Code:

check_ws_day = {
Firesday=S{'Liquefaction','Fusion','Light'},
Earthsday=S{'Scission','Gravitation','Darkness'},
Watersday=S{'Reverberation','Distortion','Darkness'},
Windsday=S{'Detonation','Fragmentation','Light'},
Iceday=S{'Induration','Distortion','Darkness'},
Lightningsday=S{'Impaction','Fragmentation','Light'},
Lightsday=S{'Transfixion','Fusion','Light'},
Darksday=S{'Compression','Gravitation','Darkness'},}

    if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' and check_ws_day[world.day]:contains(spell.skillchain_a)
            or check_ws_day[world.day]:contains(spell.skillchain_b)
            or check_ws_day[world.day]:contains(spell.skillchain_c) then
        equip (sets.WSDayBonus)
    end

its actually because it was Lightningday when it should have been Lightningsday my bad

**Quixacotl** · 2015-02-07 08:33

I found another way to do it. The only real difference is that the WS elements table is already written in Mote-Mappings so it doesn't need to be added to the main lua.

Code:

-- Elements for skillchain names
skillchain_elements = {}
skillchain_elements.Light = S{'Light','Fire','Wind','Lightning'}
skillchain_elements.Darkness = S{'Dark','Ice','Earth','Water'}
skillchain_elements.Fusion = S{'Light','Fire'}
skillchain_elements.Fragmentation = S{'Wind','Lightning'}
skillchain_elements.Distortion = S{'Ice','Water'}
skillchain_elements.Gravitation = S{'Dark','Earth'}
skillchain_elements.Transfixion = S{'Light'}
skillchain_elements.Compression = S{'Dark'}
skillchain_elements.Liquification = S{'Fire'}
skillchain_elements.Induration = S{'Ice'}
skillchain_elements.Detonation = S{'Wind'}
skillchain_elements.Scission = S{'Earth'}
skillchain_elements.Impaction = S{'Lightning'}
skillchain_elements.Reverberation = S{'Water'}

And here's the check.

Code:

sets.Gavialis_Helm = {head="Gavialis Helm"}

-- Run after the general precast() is done.
function job_post_precast(spell, action, spellMap, eventArgs)
    if spell.type == 'WeaponSkill' and skillchain_elements[spell.skillchain_a]:contains(world.day_element) or skillchain_elements[spell.skillchain_b]:contains(world.day_element) or skillchain_elements[spell.skillchain_c]:contains(world.day_element) then
        equip(sets.Gavialis_Helm)
    end
end

        equip(sets.Gavialis_Helm)
    end
end

thats no good because any ws like Starlight or Moonlight(which have no skill chains) will cause an error when you use them

Well it wouldn't cause any error messages only the Helm won't equip for Starlight or moonlight. You do have a good point about elemental WS's that have no skillchains. I didn't think of that. Other WS's that come to mind are Sanguine Blade and Energy Drain.

no trues me it will cause an error to occur because

skillchain_elements[-is an absolute-]:contains(-is not an absolute-)
-if something is an absolute it will error if it does not exist
-if something is not an absolute it will not error if it does not exist

I have to admit you got me there. Thanks for explaining that to me.
