(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hello NGU, I notice that in many of the menus posted on NGU, there is a lack of customization options. Most of the toggles that involve setting numbers usually only have 2 or 3 settable numbers or small range of toggleable options or preset options. I am here releasing some code for everyone to use, that can easily turn a boring 2 option speed adjustment that a coder made into a default and custom speed adjustment that the user can set. This can turn an entire submenu dedicated to providing customization into a single option with many thousands of additional options. The best part is you only need to put the big function in once, then add on to it for every function that uses numbers the tool creates. I have provided the code and an example of usage in a function from the GSC Script lists:

Enjoy Enzo

Here is a boring Double Speed function for the Host found in lots of menus. It requires a single boring toggle.

    

H2xspeed()

{

	if (self.h2xspeed == false)

	{

		self setmovespeedscale(2);

		self iPrintln("^52X Speed ^2Enabled);

		self.h2xspeed = true;

	}

	else

	{

		self setmovespeedscale(1);

		self iPrintln("^52X Speed ^1Disabled");

		self.h2xspeed = false;

	}

}

Here is the Fun code, user can go 2X, 1.91111X, 0.00001X, 9999X speed or whatever they want. There are millions of speed values that the user can go.
Only requires the toggle code and a second menu option to call the RTM tool with the Host Speed function argument.
If the user doesn't want to adjust it at all, it defaults to 2, like the original boring function. The user has far more choice, is that what modding is about?

    

init()

{

	level.hostadjustedspeed9 = 2; //Sets default value to 2 when the map loads and gives the variable a value.

}

H2xspeed()

{

	if (self.h2xspeed == false)

	{

		self setmovespeedscale(level.hostadjustedspeed9);

		self iPrintln("^5Speed Set To ^2" + level.hostadjustedspeed9);

		self.h2xspeed = true;

	}

	else

	{

		self setmovespeedscale(1);

		self iPrintln("^5Adjusted Speed ^1Disabled");

		self.h2xspeed = false;

	}

}

The GSC RTM Tool Code
Controls are as follows:
Controls on the DPA Sad Awesome

UP = add selected value, Down = subtract selected value, Left = subtract slider value, Right = add slider value
Controls else where: Melee = Applies number to variable and ends the function.

    

GenericNumberselectorRTMbase(selector) //Created by Nothingbutbread 

{

	self endon("toggledout1");

	self endon("disconnect");

	self endon("death");

	level endon("game_ended");

	self.genericnumbervalue = 0;

	self.genericnumberslectornum1 = 1;

	self iprintln("^5Welcome to the RTM Tool, Press DPAD UP and DOWN to adjust values. Press DPAD LEFT and RIGHT to chose what value you're adjusting.");

	for(;

The Black ops 2 community deserves more options in our menus, this is the easy way to do this.

Look dude, i dont want to be a dick about it because you are pretty supportive and it looks like you tried, but this doesnt really do much.
Heres a couple things you may want to note:
1: Anything that is a type of interval can be done mathematically. For example:

    

//You used if statements. Why would you do this, when... (By the way, it's obviously psuedo code)

desiredvalue = 0;

self.placevalue = 0;

if( self actionslotonebuttonpressed() )

self.placevalue++;

if( self actionslottwobuttonpressed() )

self.placevalue--;



if( self.placevalue < 0 )

desiredvalue += 1/(pow(10,self.placevalue * -1);

else

desiredvalue += pow(10,self.placevalue);





//If you want to subtract, simply have a different button do the same thing.

//Essentially, this does exactly what yours does, but in much less code. Im not sure if GSC includes a Math.pow function or not, if not, just define one.

2: The entire idea behind this is that users cannot customize as much as you think should be possible.
-The issue with this argument, is that most users are not what i like to call "power users". Simplicity is normally better for most users.

Just trying to help man, i like the idea, not the implementation. Hope this helps.

Well I understand what you mean, but at the end of the day, I'm just trying to help the community. Even if my efforts or trivial and/or misguided. I coded it simply as a base, the concept can be used by anyone and adapted for a particular menu. With how little I have seen the concept, I though it was worth try to bring it to the community. The code might be lengthy ... but it works like a charm and does exactly what I say it does.
However I strongly disagree at your point that this concept removes simplicity. Merging this concept with relative applications of it would maintain existing simplicity. The user doesn't have mess around with number creator and applier to edit his speed (in the example). He can use the init value set by creator of the menu by default. All the menu creators needs to do to implement is add section to place the edit function in the menu and define the valid parameters of the output of the number creator. What you have is the simple options along with a single button for every other possibility. Basic users are happy with simplicity, advanced users are happy with being able to define values the way they want them set.
If can't see what I trying to point out, the theme menu and theme menu creator menus of my XP lobby demonstrate this concept with a very similar function perfectly.

All the menu creators needs to do to implement is add section to place the edit function in the menu and define the valid parameters of the output of the number creator. What you have is the simple options along with a single button for every other possibility. Basic users are happy with simplicity, advanced users are happy with being able to define values the way they want them set.
If can't see what I trying to point out, the theme menu and theme menu creator menus of my XP lobby demonstrate this concept with a very similar function perfectly.

The issue is, when you release code, you cant think of it as "Well it works, just use it", because you have to remember that other users are going to want to utilize your code. This is something you learn through experience, and im trying to help you understand that if there is a better way to do something, do it. There's never an excuse not to optimize code, especially when readability comes into play. This is one of those things that make you a better coder; learn from it, use it to your advantage. It may be a bit more challenging for you, but in the end, it makes you better at what you do.

And im not sure if you will even bother, but here is a clean version of your idea: You must login or register to view this content.

This was the most optimized I was able to make the code before releasing this. Given you have suggested a different way of further reducing it, I will be looking into it and refining hard code to make the concept easier to implement. Nonetheless I still stand by my own work and look to make it even better and with it, everyone else. I appreciate the criticism though. I still think NGU is better off with this concept being known by more coders.

Why not make something like this? Where the gsc and rtm work together

I could see this idea working well with this concept. I could see this being implemented quite nicely given everyone who chooses to use this concept uses the same function name and dynamic value names.
However ... I have no knowledge in coding computer based RTM tools at this time ... and I couldn't get your proof of concept tool and GSC thing working thus far ...

How couldn't you get it working?

I injected the compiled GSC with GSC Studio you had on the downloads folder then connected your tool with tmapi in pre-game lobby, then loaded up the game, the typed in some numbers. Didn't notice anything different about the game.
