Event Handler Issue With Dictionary Keys and Loop
Posted: Sun May 03, 2020 10:17 pm
Alright so am having some problems working on a mod. I'm using a few event handlers as triggers for blocks of code that will run, as one would expect. Problem is, now that I have been using save-data, I have also been using dictionaries in this mod, with what i'm currently trying to do I want to loop through all the values in this dictionary and check each key and a value inside every in-game day using the "OnNewDay" event handler.
All seemed to be going fine, and I tried using an example from the C# docs for a foreach loop that only used the keys from the dictionary, but started seeing some problems with this and did a bunch of trouble-shooting with Burt both were getting the same errors.
So the event "OnNewDay" works fine, but as soon as the foreach loop is put into this example, it and other event handlers in the same script stop functioning, with what appears to be an exception like this from Unity:
However, when the code-block is changed to something like this:
It works fine. So I originally though that maybe it was the loop causing a problem, but when Burt showed me this working code, he seems to think it has something to do with how the keys are being retrieved from the custom dictionary.
So we are both not 100% sure why the first example was causing problem, but he thought that maybe somebody would know better on the forums, thanks for your time, hopefully this explains the context well enough.
