Effect: Write to log on failure

EffectNo. 9229

Synopsis

Same as Effect: Write to log, but it only adds the entry when its stack's conditions are not met. Useful to find out why a stack is not doing what you expect without showing anything to players.

Step by step

Log a failed condition

Boxes you need

  1. TriggerTrigger: Say something
  2. ConditionCondition: User on object
  3. EffectEffect: Write to log on failure
  1. Stack “Says something” (“log”) and this effect, along with “User on object” selecting a walkable object A.
  2. Select INFO and enter “Off A”. Leave delay at 0 and save every box.
  3. Say “log” while not standing on A. Open /circuits → Log, refresh and find the text.
  4. Step on A, say “log” again and refresh: no new warning entry should be added.

Result: The log records only the branch where the condition fails.
