Config help - excluding a section - How?

[GazCBG]

Hi,

 

I am just creating game config and am currently doing the .xml config files but would like to know how to exclude a section from the config when it is written, if a setting is picked.

 

So let say the config is like

{
 "sessions": [
   {
     "hour": 18,
     "day": 29,
     "Type": "P",
     "Minutes": 15
   },
   {
     "hour": 18,
     "day": 29,
     "Type": "Q",
     "Minutes": 15
   },
   {
     "hour": 18,
     "day": 29,
     "Type": "R",
     "Minutes": 15
   }
 ]
}

 

 

If I don't want to include the below in the config for example, how would I tell TCAdmin to not add it?

 

   {
     "hour": 18,
     "day": 29,
     "Type": "P",
     "Minutes": 15
   },

Are you building the config using the Configuration Editor?

Hi,

 

Yes I am, but can change if need be.

If you use the configuration editor, you can setup a variable. Add this variable to the editor as a checkbox. Enter this in the 'On' field:

{

"hour": 18,

"day": 29,

"Type": "P",

"Minutes": 15

},

Leave the Off value blank.

 

It will be incorrectly formatted, but that shouldn't mean anything.

 

 

Use this as your template for the file:

{
 "sessions": [
   ![MyVariable]
   { 
     "hour": 18,
     "day": 29,
     "Type": "Q",
     "Minutes": 15
   },
   {
     "hour": 18,
     "day": 29,
     "Type": "R",
     "Minutes": 15
   }
 ]
}
