High speed dubegger

A stool where you specify a range of values and it outputs them to .txt file or console for the highspeed device pointed at.


e.g. say I'm writing stuff to ram, but its not going as I intend. So I use the stool to output values 0-100 to console or a text file.

now I can manually check what has been written without needing to wire up some form of reading device.

Could also be good with console screen and cpu.

Easily done, give me about and hour... probably less.
For the console dumping anyways. Saving files is more complicated, unless you don't care that it will only save to the server's files?

I said that, but BP says there's a problem?

I'd make it now but I'm doing other things D=

I don't know, i would use it in SP , I don't understand fully the difficulties in saving and loading server vs client. Console is probably as convenient. you can always hand copy and paste them.

I'm working on the saving loading too.
Running the first test at the moment, hopefully the console printing works.

If it does I'll release that as a working example. Then keep working on adding the .txt saving. It shouldn't be too bad if I just use file text-appending.

You're the man! ;P

Haha, I'm just here to help.
File attached, this version only dumps to console.
Toss it into the lua/weapons/gmod_tool/stools/

I might add the .txt dumping soon, I'm fed up with this computer for testing though... it's so slow so a minor syntax error is infuriating!

Updated: Now right click prints the mincell to the screen. Good for just one cell at a time.

[Whodunnit]

its working, though there are alot of "invalid" cells (dunno what is in them, maybe cpu code)

What settings did you have on?
Left or right click?
What component? Cpu?

Invalid just means it's empty.

left clicking on my cpu with code loaded values from 0 to 100 gave me only about 3 values displayed in console.
