Finding Interfaces​

Finding Interfaces

The simplest way to find interfaces, is using the FilterText option.

Finding Interfaces by visible text

Finding interfaces

The console out for the above action is below:

Current: 1477:704:14:704 Index: 4
Full path:  : 17fcdef9450 : 17fcddfe650 : 17fcddfa050 : 17fcddfe850 : 17fc69f8e10
Current IDs: 1477:704:14:704
Full IDs: { { 1477,25,-1,-1,0 }, { 1477,699,-1,25,0 }, { 1477,700,-1,699,0 }, { 1477,704,-1,700,0 }, { 1477,704,14,704,0 } }

Using Interface Values​

Using Interface Values

Now that we have an interface ID, let's see how to use the values in your scripts.

--[[
    We have to create a table of InterfaceComp5
    for every single element in the full path 

    {
        { 1477,25,-1,-1,0 },
        { 1477,699,-1,25,0 },
        { 1477,700,-1,699,0 },
        { 1477,704,-1,700,0 },
        { 1477,704,14,704,0 }
    }
]]

local customisationInterface = {
    InterfaceComp5.new(1477,25,-1,-1,0),
    InterfaceComp5.new(1477,699,-1,25,0),
    InterfaceComp5.new(1477,700,-1,699,0),
    InterfaceComp5.new(1477,704,-1,700,0),
    InterfaceComp5.new(1477,704,14,704,0),
}

--[[
    We will then call API.ScanForInterfaceTest2Get
    with the table we created.
    The first argument is a boolean which says
    if we have to scan the child interfaces or not.

    In this function, we're checking if we find any interfaces
    with the hierarchy that we requested for and
    returning true if we did.
]]
local function isCustomisationInterfacePresent()
    local result = API.ScanForInterfaceTest2Get(true, customisationInterface)
    if #result > 0 then
        return true
    else return false end
end
