Hooking and file accessing

Hi,

are there any functions to directly access files?(that means not, savevars or whatever)
why doesnt savevars saves into levels/ and all subfolders of levels/ but the graal.wiki.net example of savevars uses levels/ ?
how to hook things?
i talked to someone and said something like "it would be nice if you could execute a script everytime a weapon is saved / so like i could make a mysql class and every weapon that gets saved gets added a join('mysql_class') at the serverside and clientside end"
he said: "that possible"
i asked "how?"
he said: "with hooks, my system uses them"
but he was working so how do i make these hooks?

Savestring + Loadstring might be what you want:

No, i search direct file access functions, so i can save things into levels/ and the subfolders of levels/
that doesnt seem to work with savestring or savevars

edit:
OT: btw is graal.net down?
doesnt load for me lol

I'm pretty sure there is no traditional hooking in gscript. but the onCreated() event is called when a weapon is saved serverside.

for every weapon? i guess only the weapon that got saved or? xD

Yay for wasting my post.

I don't know what you mean by 'directly accessing a file.'
It's possible to load the file as raw text, the way it would appear in wordpad, by using loadlines() and savelines().

All of the 'save<whatever>' functions require a full path. The syntax is save<whatever>(path,append?)
If you want to save text to a file 'zomg.txt' in levels/, you need to do object.savelines("levels/zomg.txt",false);

In the case of savelines, it expects the object to be an array. Each array member is one line.

PHP Code:


		
			
temp.lines = {"Hi","how","are","you"};

temp.lines.savelines("levels/test.txt",false);

// Output will look like:

// Hi

// how

// are

// you

In the case of savevars, it expects an object (normally a TStaticVar)

PHP Code:


		
			
temp.myobject = new TStaticVar();

with (temp.myobject) {

  this.zomg = "Hello";

  this.cat = "dog";

  this.moo = 123;

}

temp.myobject.savevars("levels/test.txt",0);

//Output will look like:

//zomg=Hello

//cat=dog

//moo=123

You don't need to define the TStaticVar in most cases, you could just do temp.myobject.zomg = "Hello"; and so on.

Finally, savestring is pretty much the same thing as savelines but it saves the text in a single line. The object it expects is just a string, float, integer, ect.

PHP Code:


		
			
temp.mystring = "Hello, how are you today?";

temp.mystring.savestring("levels/test.txt",0);

// Output will look like:

// Hello, how are you today?
