Can you put categories within categories?
Re: Categories
Posted: 16 Jan 2019, 04:42
I guess i should add: I want to make a self created category- would I be able to put another category within that? Making a roads plugin, with various styles and options so this would be helpful, especially if road decos become too tedious or wont do what i want in some cases.

Yay, I got it to work. Seems, at least for me, easier to use separate jsons- as loaded in one json, even with category ids in alphabetical order, i could not get it it work. But with separate jsons for each category in the zip and the main category with file name "acat...." and the categories within "bcat...." and within those (kinda crazy just testing, all 3 within transport category 
) "cat...".
) "cat...".Re: Categories

I could not make my category work
After that, I tag all of my .json with
I have 1 .json for the category, and 6 other for my RCI zones.
It gives me error, stating that no such category could be found
Code: Select all
[
{
"id":"cat_neuterland",
"ordinal":0
"type":"category",
"category":"$cat_zone00",
"frames":[{"bmp":"neuterlandicon.png"}],
"title":"Neuterland",
}
]
Code: Select all
"category":"$cat_neuterland00",
It gives me error, stating that no such category could be found

Try to add 0 to category json/file name's first
Re: Categories
Posted: 11 Jul 2019, 01:38
Renamed it to 0cat_neuterland_zone, still getting the category not found error.
Did i wrote my code correctly, above? Also, my category is a separate .json and not a part of the zones .json, that will work right?

Thanks, I will try this one, where do I put this? On the each of the .json ID?
@yusuf8a684 Could you send the sample .json that you offered, I would like to take a look at it and see if I can implement it in my .json, thanks!
Re: Categories

No, you just name the category defining json with a name that TheoTown will read before any json that uses the category.
This can be folders or json file names.
Folder named 000c
File named Category.json
Folder named UsesCategory
File named UsesCategory.json
Or if files are in same folder, then:
000definescat.json
Usescat.json

Category folders should be upper from it's items. Like, red circled folder is category of the categories that shown with red arrow and yellow circled folder is category of the rails
These all folders that has 00 in the name is a category folder
