FGU: Extension not working?

[Weltenbrand]

I'am writing an extension for a ruleset I'am developping.
I want to join (or replace) the script for a window control.

Code in the ruleset:


<root>
<windowclass name = "window_talente">
[...]
<sheetdata>
[...]
<windowlist name = "liste">
<anchored>
[...]
</anchored>
<class>liste_normaletalente</class>
<sortby>
<control>name</control>
</sortby>
<script file = "campaign/character/talente/scripts/script1.lua"/>
<allowdelete/>
</windowlist>
</sheetdata>
</windowclass>
</root>

I want to join or replace the script of the window list in the extension:


<root>
<windowclass name = "window_talente" merge = "join">
<sheetdata>
<windowlist name = "liste">
<script file = "campaign/character/talente/scripts/script2.lua" merge="join"/>
</windowlist>
</sheetdata>
</windowclass>
</root>

This seems to do nothing. "window_talente" behaves like so ruleset verion.
For a test I tried to delete the window_talente with:

<windowclass name = "window_talente" merge = "delete"/>
Which should produce a class not found error in my understanding, but the original window is loaded.
This makes me guess that the extension is not loaded correctly even if no error/warning is shown.

extension.xml:

<root version="3.2">
<properties>
<name>Addon: Talentlisten</name>
<description>Talentlisten für das DSA4 Rulseset von der DZ</description>
<ruleset>
<name>DasSchwarzeAuge4DZ</name>
</ruleset>
</properties>
<version>0.1</version>
<base>
<incluefile source="campaign/character/talente/window_talente.xml"/>
</base>
</root>


Any idea what I'am doing wrong?

* Have you loaded the extension on the launch screen for your test campaign?
* Are there any errors in the console?

When I'm not sure if a script is loading, I will usually add a global script with a Debug.console() statement in the onInit function in order to verify loading.

I get no errors in the console and get the extension loaded message.

This code gets executed:


<script name="Test">
function onInit()
Debug.console("Extension loaded")
end
</script>

In window classes, the merge attribute is meant to be usedor specifying at the windowclass level, and at each control level; not within the controls. The one you have on the script tag for the windowclass merge will just be added to the existing control (which means that it gets layered, I believe). So, the underlying script functions will still be there, but can be overriden by your script.

Layering the script would be great. But this does not happen.
Only the original script is executed für the windowlist.
Basically nothing happens if I try to merge windowclasses or windocontrols.

Without an example extension that I can use to step through and test, I don't know what is happening or not happening.

I'm not familiar with DSA nor can I speak German; is there a way to make a sample for CoreRPG that has the same issue?

It is not specific to DSA.

In my understanding these files should draw a box over the charsheet.
But nothing happends.

Two typos:

1) extension.xml: <incluefile source="campaign/box.xml"/> should be includefile
2) box.xml: <backcoloer>#FFFFFF</backcoloer> should be <backcolor>

Oh ...
I will look at this when I get home.
If this is the error I am really sorry.

... several days for finding a d -.-'.
