Hey there I'm having a hard time trying to bind a function to an UI button in chests and call the function when i click the button So far i found all the chests config files in packed/Interface/ and i know i can put lua files into scripts but how can i make the two working together ? This is what i found in one of these files : { "close" : { "type" : "button", "base" : "/interface/inventory/x.png", "hover" : "/interface/inventory/xhover.png", "press" : "/interface/inventory/xpress.png", "position" : [143, 135] } } But i don't understand how the game manage the events and make the link between the UI and the scripts when we click on UI controls Could someone experienced with this help me please ?
As far as I can tell, there are six files that do it in Vanilla Starbound, and which you can study to see how it's done: interface\scripted\ancientconsole\ancientconsolegui.config interface\scripted\cropshipper\cropshippergui.config interface\scripted\mannequin\mannequingui.config interface\scripted\mmupgrade\mmupgradegui.config interface\scripted\techupgrade\techupgradegui.config interface\scripted\vehiclerepair\vehiclerepairgui.config The tag to look for is "scriptWidgetCallbacks"; you add the names of the UI elements you want to trigger LUA functions to this list, and in the .lua file a function for each UI element with the same name as the element itself.
