Sorting

[WhiteDragon]

I haven't tested, but having a subvariable on an array or string literal seems a bit odd to me.

Why not just use a TStaticVar?

All that would need to be changed is that getGuildList() would need to return an array of TStaticVars, rather than say account names.

Note: If you are using a player object or something though, that would work as it extends a TGraalVar and should support subvariables.

I have it when a guild registers, it sets up a ton of things like
this.guilds.GUILDNAME=members with access
this.guilds.GUILDNAME.kills
this.guilds.GUILDNAME.levels
this.guilds.GUILDNAME.deaths
this.guilds.GUILDNAME.rupees
this.guilds.GUILDNAME.ec
theres more too, just trying to pull the guilds with top 5 kills and post them in a gui with the code I posted a few before this.

so if SDE registered, it'd set up vars, like so:
this.guilds.SDE
this.guilds.SDE.kills
this.guilds.SDE.deaths
this.guilds.SDE.rupees

and say SNC

this.guilds.SNC
u get the picture. So Im trying to pull all the this.guilds.GUILDNAME.kills for each guild registered, sort it, get the top 5 kills, then say like "Guildname: Kills" line by line a gui.

PHP Code:

public function getTopAbyss(){
  temp.guilds = getGuildList();
  for (i=0; i<temp.guilds.size(); i++) {
    temp.guilds[i].kills = this.guilds.(@temp.guilds[i]).kills;
  }
  temp.guilds.sortbyvalue("kills", null, true);
  echo(temp.guilds);
} 


Jer, I think you were a little messed up with your loop and setting the variable as temp.g.kills, because based off what Chris posted you need to save it as a subvariable in the array, though I've never used array.sortbyvalue() before.

The code I posted works, as I tested it successfully.

This is basically what you'll need, you've tried enough to deserve it.

PHP Code:

public function getTop5() { 
  // Initialize Array and Kills Structure  
  temp.guildzname = getGuildList();  
  // Loop and Record Kills in the Array Member's sort variable  
  for (temp.g: temp.guildzname) {  
    temp.g.kills = this.guilds.(@temp.g).kills;  
  }
  // Sort 
  temp.guildzname.sortbyvalue("kills", null, false);
  // Loop through Sorted Data
  for (temp.i = 0; temp.i < 5; temp.i++) {
    // Determine Variables
    temp.g = temp.guildzname[temp.i];
    temp.kills = this.guilds.(@temp.g).kills;
    temp.str = (temp.g @ "'s kills: " @ temp.kills);
    // Add formatted string to data array
    temp.data.add(temp.str);
  }
  // Return the data array  
  return temp.data;  
}

Well sort by value's 3rd param, in your posted script just now, has to be true for descending value.
But anyways.

PHP Code:

public function getTopAbyss(){
  temp.guilds = getGuildList();
  for (temp.g : temp.guilds) {
    temp.g.kills = this.guilds.(@temp.g).kills;
  }
  temp.guilds.sortbyvalue("kills", null, true);
  echo(temp.guilds);
}

Note that BTK, Owner, and Poop all have 0 kills, so they can have a random order, and Wolfs has 2 kills and SDE has 22 kills.
