All language subtitles for 71. Improving the Meta Upgrade Card

We have a couple more things to do to get our meta progression upgrades working properly so we need

Add a cow

To the upgrade card

I've how many times you've acquired to upgrade

We need add a button to go to that upgrade screen from the main menu and we need to

Probably drop the player into the upgrade screen after either winning or losing

So

Let's get all of that done

In this lesson

The first thing I'm going to do is let go ahead and go to Armada upgrade card

Open up that scene

How many to find a place to put the count

And I think what we can do is this

Progress label right here

Let's change it so that way it is horizontally online

To the la

And then let's create an H box container under

TV box container

And make that the first child and then

Put the private label as a child of the age box contain

We compress knowledge for you!

Ok

And then

Let's Create another label underneath that aid box contain

And we'll call this the

Counter label

Right-click

Quick access

Unique c names

And we want to

Put something like

X0 in there or something

And let's change the theme type variation on this count labour

Two blue outline logo

So we want discount label to appear at the end of the 8th box contain

So select account label

And scroll to the container sizing which is

Just before Midway down the list

And change the horizontal container sizing to shrink and

And then make sure to click expand

So this is a little bit confusing

You would expect

And to make it go to the end of the 8 box container

Because that's the full width of the Xbox

But

The problem is that

Gearbox container aligns items one right after another

And so it can't do that

But

By clicking accept and essentially what you're saying is

I want this label

To take up the rest of the space within the 8 box container

And then because it's taking up all the rest of that space

It can be play

At the end song

Really this label is basically being told

To take out the remaining space in the age box container and then we can align it over to the right

The other option you have is you can change this horizontal

Sizing to fill and expand

So if you have full set

And then click expand

That tells us to go to the end of the container

Then you can go up to the text and you can change the horizontal alignment to right

So I'll leave it like that so I've sent it to fill with expand and horizontal alignment right but if you have the other way the initial

I showed you that is perfectly fine as well

Let's go to the murder of Greg card here

And we got this update progress function now we're going to also at into here

Line of code that would change the text

That shows appear based on how many of that upgrades that we have

Jonas update progress

I'm going to get reference first to the counter label at the top

So drag it over hold control and drop

So now I've got an account level

And

Update progress I'm going to say counter label

Start

Text is equal to

No I'm going to use string formatting again we used it once before

And again I will link the docs to string format

In a way that string formatting works is essentially you take one of the placeholder format options in Ark

We want to do an integer

So we do this

We can do x

This is not part of the string format but this

Percentage

So why am I pulling

X is because that's

The indicator that's the number of times we have this up

So the axis

The X-ray

So there's nothing special about The xx

However

This present d represents a placeholder and what that says is

Whenever the first argument we provide as the string formatting argument should be formatted as an integer

The way we do that is outside of the string we do a percent

And then we need to grab an integer

Any integer we need

Is in a meadow progression saved

So I'm going to copy this meta progression save data

Put it there

And then let's take a look at this evening

Ok so we need the key metre upgrades and then upgrade ID and in Quant

So that's what we're looking for

So

Let's keep that metal upgrades like sell

Then

We want a person the operator ID remember we have upgrades stored up here

And then we want to read

Quantity

So this is an integer right

Working in the quantity of the upgrades that this card represent

This is an integer this one line

Percent tells it ok replace

The string format

Directives in here

Or placeholder

With

The integer here so this present d will be replaced

That integer

The string formatting can get very complicated

And a little bit confusing

Definitely recommend that you take a look at the docks that I've

Ok so now let's open up our Meadow menu

Go to the team let's go ahead and run the current scene so we're on the menu

Did you see that

Depending on how many times you

The purchase button

This now shows up as

X 9 in my case

This will probably be more than 0 in your case

Ok so now that we've got done

Let's do one other thing real quick

And it's one thing that I don't want to over

And that is we don't want the purchase button to be enabled if we already have them

Right

So let's grab this quantity here

And I'm going to

Store that is a variable laptops and use a current quantity

Is it go to that

Let's replace this line

Crank wanted

And now we need to set our progress button disabled if percent is less than 1

Or

So

Double pipes here for us

Current quantity

Is equal to with double eagle

Upgrade dart

Max

And we're going to change the purchase button text as well if the upgrade is at the max quantity so

I'm going to create a new variable up here called is

Max

What score is man

Like that

And then I'm going to copy this current quantity is equal to

Operate Max quantity likes

And I'm going to replace that line with is mass

Ok

And then we'll say

Is Max

Purchase button

Text

Is equal to

What's the same Max if you think of better word to put there

That's fine

What does set it to Max right there

So that should handle that case

You could even instead of doing

Current quantity is equal to

You can do

Greater than or equal to excel

And just that means that

If we run the menu now I should see that button says Max yeah

Alright so that's great

And there is one other bug that you will not encounter until

You delete your save file so if I go to my

And then open user data folder and I delete this game that save

What will happen if I go into the upgrade section

It will crash

And the reason it all crashes because

The Mena progression

Will not contain

Key upgrade ID

So we need to change this slightly

So let's set the current one to d20

And I need to say if meta progression

Save data

Has

Upgrade ID

Ananda l quantity

So just like so if my progression dad save data

Mirror upgrades

Has opera lady

Then

We're going to say our current

Quality is equal to

That

Right

So we first need to check it for safety purposes

And then we can reassign our current quantity so now if you click play and going to upgrade

You should see that it's 0

And so now if you delete your save data it should be fine so if I run this

I'm going to upgrades

It'll be

Now the next thing we need to do

Is we need to add a button to take us to the menu

From the main

So let's go to our main menu scene

And let's open up that Martin contain

Let's duplicate the play button with controlled d

Let's call this metal button

Then let's call this

Upgrades

Like so

And we can rename this to upgrade button just to be consistent so also upgrades

Then let's go ahead and open up our main manuscript

And let's just copy this play button line

Stabilo

Rename

Play to upgrades like so and then on upgrades

Let's copy be on play Press

Function

And paste it underneath

Ok and

We want to call this on upgrades

And then we want to go to

Our race scenes

And I'm going to search for murder men

Again you can just start typing meta menu

Doesn't matter if your

Not referencing the exact path because good or will suggest a path for you

And then you need a clicker enter with that selector

Subtitled by
online-courses.club
We compress knowledge for you!

And that will take us to the menu

I'm going to run this I'm going to collect upgrades and we are in the main menu now you'll notice that there is no

Play to go back

From this screen

So let's go to our menu

And are back

I'm just going to in the grid container here

Instantiate

Metre upgrade card I made up in 3 of those

And

Let's do this

This is actually really useful to have for testing purposes

So

Let's do the follow

Let's open up our menu script here

In the ready function let's do this

Child in

Container dart get children

So this is how you can

The entire array of children of the grid container so that overturned all of these

Metre upgrade

Simply save child

So now what we can do is we can keep these in here for you I development

But as soon as we run this scene

They will be gone and replaced with the actual met up

Ok

Play say back button in here in the easiest way to do that

Is to add a button to the margin container

Like cell

And it's going to be huge by The Fall

But what I'm going to do is I'm going to

Select the button

And scroll down to the container sizing

Section

I'm going to say shrink begin for the horizontal and shrink begin

For the vehicle and that will put it

The top left

Then for the tax I'm going to call it back

And let's rename this button to back button

Add again let's market

Seem unique name

And then I'm going to give this button a minimum size

50

Just to give it some nice padding now what you notice

Is that

Does clipping a car

So what we're going to have to do is change the number of columns in the career

2

And now this is presenting another problem

And this problem is

These cars are now leaving our screen

This isn't actually going to be a problem

In our

Game because we only have one upgrades but as you add more upgrades

This is not going to scroll

It's just going to be

And a proper with a handle that is with a

Scroll container

Will introduce the scroll container a little bit later in this lesson

Let's get the other pieces

Done the way we need to do on so

Is back button now I'm just going to remove this last minute upgrade card

So now the back button will be in the top left like cell

And we just need to make the back but

Work

So in our case the back button will always go back to the main menu

So let's create a function

On backpack

And then we're going to call

Screen

Transition

Transition

Then we're going to away

Stream transition

Transitioned halfway

Then we're going to call get three

Start change

Seem to fail

And we want to go back

2

Main

Our main menu

Maidstone

Ok and you're not as that were repeating basically these three lines of code

Everywhere

If you wanted to you could have straight to this into a function

Like so

So let's copy these lines go to Screen transition

So again that you can control click the screen transition to go to that

Script

Let's call

What's create a function called

Transition

To seem

Let's pass in a scene pack

Which is a string

And then was peace that killed in there

But instead

The heart of string here for passing the scene

We have that

Code in a nice

Function that we can use so we can use E10

We don't need the screen transitions

Here so we can remove that and just call transition and await transition pathway

Now we go to our

Meadow menu

Instead of doing this we can say a transition underscore

To underscore seem

Copy this path

Put it in as the first argue

Anna movies order line

It's an alpha where should be able to run the game click upgrade

And then click back

We actually didn't connect the back press sing

So we should do that

So let's get a reference to the back button

Bye

Making an already very

Like so

And then in the ready method I'm going to say back button

Depressed

On back

Pressed

And make sure again not to invoke it but just a reference

Right now let's go ahead and run

Upgrade

Clickbait

And we're all good

Ok

So now let's go to her end screen

Open up the end screen and instead of restart

Let's change this button to

Continue instead

I'd like to change this quick button to quit

So rename this text to quit to menu

And the restart button

Let's call this continue

Plexal

My name is restart button to continue button

Perfect

Open up that and screen screw

And everywhere we are referencing reset button which is just here

We Gotta change this to continue one

Likes

And then let's rename this function

In what we can do as we can highlighters Henry start button pressed

Get ctrl-d to highlight the other currencies of that which there's only one of

Unless

We have a person now and we can use the arrow keys to move that cursor around see how it's moving in both places

So we can take this restart here

Highlight all of that by holding shift and

Using arrow keys

And we can instead type on continue button press and now it changes involve place

Easy way to rename everything at once

And so when the reason when the continue button is pressed

We were

2 instead of doing all of this

We want to

Change the scene to the mega menu

So in here

What's replace the strings

M on the square menu

Select that option

And this is the footpath here

Ok and the Clifton menu

We need a transition to the

Main city

So

Onclick button pressed we need to do

Screen transition

Start transition to scene

And then this is going to be right now or not getting

The

Autocomplete suggestions in wires

Godot does not recognise

At this art to be a scene pack

So we're just going to have to

To sing herself now what we can do is if we don't remember the path we can go to the filter files here

The file system search for main underscore menu

And if you write

You cancel

Happy power

Or you can hit ctrl shift c

Search copy that

And then let space that in

And there we go

So let's run a quick test

Play I'm just going to die really

Alright son Audi click continue

We should be brought to this menu here and then we can click back

An hour back at the main menu

Where we can

Go back into the game

So we got a nice look right there

No let's verify that the quicker menu is also work

And quit the menu also works

Now

Actually doesn't also work

Appears to be a problem

The problem is that we are not on pausing the game again

Unfortunately

We're going to have to copy and paste this code and the reason is because

We only want to unpause the scene tree after the transition happen

So we can I put the get 3 pause false here because then the game will start running again and we don't want

So we actually need to do an awake so even though

The transition to seem in here

Is being awaited

Right here

Where can I have to do the same so that we can unpause the tree

When a probe

So

Let's

Get rid of pores false after

That

Transition to scene line

But then let's go ahead and Away

Screen transition

Transition halfway

We can listen to this or we can await the signal in multiple places

I was just quickly verify that work

Alright that's working great

And the final thing

That we have to do is we have to make our upgrade actually work

Unless should be fairly quick

So let's go to our Vale drop component

And what is are

Mega upgrade do

Let's go to our resources

Meta upgrades experience games

Trys

And

It increases the experience dropped Chance by

10%

And so what we're going to do is essential just going to add 10% onto

The

Vial drop camper

So it's open up the volume drop component

Script

And what we're going to do as we're going to create a new variable called adjusted

Drop

Percent

Is equal to

Sharpest

And then we're going to do this work in a cheque or metal progression

Going to say if

Meta progression save data

And then the key

Meta underscore upgrades

What's the ID we want a reference

We want to reference the experience again ID so let's go out and put that in there

Now we have to do multiple levels of checks here and it might be better

If we create a function in r m progression to let

Take this out

Let's open up the metal progression

Instead of admire upgrade let's do another function called

Bank get

Upgrade

Count

Like so

And then we need to pass in the upgrades ID

Which is the type of string

What's pays that line that we had in the other screen

So

If we don't need this meta progression if save data metal upgrades

We the change this experience game key to

Has

And I'm passing the upgrade ID

Then what we're going to do is going to return

Save data

Metre upgrade

With this ID here

Upgrade ID

And then the key quote

So essentially checking to see

If we have that upgrades

If so then we can safely reference the quantity

And return

Now if that check fails

What will do

Is will Simply Be Returns

So now we can safely call this function and it will always give us a number

Price of Back In Arms vinyl drop component script let's just do this

We're going to say

Smallest screen on a variable called experience

Gain upgrade

Count is equal to

Meta progression get

Upgrade count

Experience game

Like so

And then we're going to say

Experience gained upgrades count is greater than 0

What we're going to do in that block is were going to say the adjust and drop percent

What equals 1

In this check if random greater than drops

Is a round of greater than adjusted dropped

Ok

An easy way to test

Is I'm actually going to change this is just a drop percent

From 0.1

2

1

And then I'm going to go to my basic enemy here

Open up the bass Academy go to the Vale drop on it and set the drop percent 20

And so since I have that experience game upgrade

I should see all the rats dropping vials

Every single time

Even though I've configured their drop percent to be 0

I look at that it's work

Sign in to reset the stuff I'm going to put a drop percent for the rats at 35%

And then I'm going to go back to my vale drop component

And make this adjusted represent .1 again

Alright

So that's basically our meta-regression system in place

In the next lesson it's going to be very quick we're just going to take a look at adding scrolling

To our Meadow

Upgrade menu here

So that when we have

More than 2 metre upgrades it will scroll the view

And that way we can develop more
