TraitTagFramework

A Project Zomboid framework for adding user-defined strings correlating to player traits. Trait tags are stored in a table accessed by a module and has built-in functions.

A message from the creator

Do you really enjoy this mod, or even better want to build off of it? Please consider donating to me so I can pay my bills. I'm recently unemployed and every little bit helps!

How to Use:

Declare the module before it's needed (typically at the beginning of the file) with
local TTF = require("TraitTagFramework");
Depending on your use case, you'll want to add your tags before the player is created. To do this, make a function that gets added to the OnGameBoot event with
Events.OnGameBoot.Add([your function here])
If you're creating new traits, feel free to mingle your trait and tag declarations together, like so:
local AT_Carpenter = TraitFactory.addTrait("AT_Carpenter", getText("UI_trait_AT_Carpenter"), 2, getText("UI_trait_AT_Carpenter_desc"), false);
AT_Carpenter:addXPBoost(Perks.Woodwork, 1)
TTF.Add("AT_Carpenter", "Anthro,HabitatBuilder");

Available Functions

  • ToString()

    Returns the entirety of the table and tags in a string.
  • TagTableToString(string traitName)

    Returns the tags associated with a trait as a string
  • Add(string traitName, string tags)

    Add(s) tag(s) to the TraitTags module.
    Note: For tags, use alphanumeric symbols only, and separate each tag with a comma.
  • Remove(string traitName)

    Removes a trait and all of its tags from the TraitTags module.
  • RemoveTag(string traitName, string tag)

    Removes the specified tag from the specified trait in the TraitTags module.
  • GetTable()

    Returns the entirety of the TraitTags table as a table.
  • GetTagTable(string traitName)

    Returns the table of tags associated with a trait as a table.
  • GetTagStatistics()

    Returns a string containing each tag used, and how many times they're used.
    Note: I find this helpful for balancing purposes.
  • GetPlayerTraitTags(Player player)

    Returns a string containing each tag a player has.
  • GetPlayerTagStatistics(Player player)

    Returns a string containing each tag and the amount(count) of each the player has. This list in the string is ordered by count.
    String format: "[tag]: [count]; [tag]: [count];..."
  • PlayerHasTag(Player player, string targetTag)

    Returns a boolean, which is true if the player has the targetTag.
  • PlayerTagCountLargerThan(Player player, string subjectTag, string comparatorTag)

    Returns a boolean, which is true only if the subjectTag's count is larger than the comparatorTag's count.
    Note: This will also return false if one of the tags cannot be found (with a console print warning of a nil if debug mode is on).
  • GetAllTraitsWithTag(string subjectTag)

    Returns a collection of Traits that have the subject tag.

All Vanilla Traits put in .Add
