[Solved]ArrayOutOfBoundsException

[Mayor Jeffrey IX]

Problem is as follows:

Plugin Error

java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: length=0; index=0

[Lobby]

Without code it's difficult to help. You probably didn't provide frames.

[Mayor Jeffrey IX]

I have all seven frames (wr1, wr2, wr3, wr4, wr5, wr6, basewindmill).

[Lobby]

It would be a lot more easy if you could paste the code directly into the forum using the

Code: Select all

-tags. Also the error message tells you where it occurred, that might be helpful.

It's most likely that there's a mistake in your image names.

[Mayor Jeffrey IX]

Code: Select all

"id": "wind_rotor01",
"type": "animation",
"frames": [
{"bmp": "wr1.png"},
{"bmp": "wr2.png"},

Man I am such a noob

[Mayor Jeffrey IX]

So do you have an idea of what could be wrong?

[BetterBear]

So do you have an idea of what could be wrong?

I think because he wrote

Code: Select all

"type": HABITANT_COUNT,

And since its a wind turbine, I should be:

Code: Select all

"type":"energy",

Still not sure

[Josh]

Or do you mean how many habitants, than instead of

Code: Select all

"type": "HABITANT_COUNT", 
"data": { 
"count": 300 

You need to do

Code: Select all

"habitans":300

[Lobby]

It looks as if it doesn't see the contents of your JSON File

[Mayor Jeffrey IX]

@BetterBear
This

Code: Select all

"requirement": {
"requirements":
[
{
"type":"HABITANT_COUNT",
"data": {
"count": 300
}
}
]
}

is a seperate line of code, and if you look at the top, you'll see

Code: Select all

"type": "energy",

I know this works 'cause I've used this in other plugins.

@Lobby
Hmmm that's odd... not sure what could cause that.

[Josh]

Do you want a certain amount of habitans to achieve this building?

[CommanderABab]

I think that he is trying to make it like the regular wind turbine.

[Mayor Jeffrey IX]

I'd like to get it to get unlocked by rank, but that's not the problem. The problem is the error message (see top).

[Mayor Jeffrey IX]

All I want to know is what the error message means.

[CommanderABab]

The width and height of the regular wind turbine is 3x3.

[Mayor Jeffrey IX]

Ok, I planned it to be 4x4. It's going to be kind of an upgrade to the current one. Not literally.

[Lobby]

You might consider to send us your current progress to info@theotown.de so we can have a look at it. The error message alone doesn't tell enough about the issue.

[Mayor Jeffrey IX]

I figured out the problem!

It turns out I need to put an actual number of frames.
For example:
I need to change this

Code: Select all

[ 
{ 
"id": "wind_rotor01", 
"type": "animation", 
"frames": [ 
{"bmp": "wr1.png"}, 
{"bmp": "wr2.png"}, 
{"bmp": "wr3.png"}, 
{"bmp": "wr4.png"}, 
{"bmp": "wr5.png"}, 
{"bmp": "wr6.png"} 
] 
}, 

to this

Code: Select all

[ 
{ 
"id": "wind_rotor01", 
"type": "animation", 
"count": 6,
"frames": [ 
{"bmp": "wr1.png"}, 
{"bmp": "wr2.png"}, 
{"bmp": "wr3.png"}, 
{"bmp": "wr4.png"}, 
{"bmp": "wr5.png"}, 
{"bmp": "wr6.png"} 
] 
}, 

That count specifies how many frames there are.

[Lobby]

That's strange, we don't read a count attribute for animation plugins

[Mayor Jeffrey IX]

Well, it works now so I'm not gonna complain
