Post [Solved] Adding money/gold using Lua
:oops: I feel guilty making this post because I'm certain this has been asked before but this forum's search function is nothing short of satanic. I couldn't "find" anything on the LuaDocs under keywords gold, money, or cash either.

THE POST:
I intend to make an actor of some sort generate income over time. What lua script or function could I call to add gold (the currency, not nuggets) to the game? Is there a one-liner for this or would I have to create some complicated work around to add money?

Thanks!

The functions in question should be
Code:
ActivityMan:GetActivity():GetTeamFunds(team_number)
ActivityMan:GetActivity():SetTeamFunds(gold_amount, team_number)

So you could have something like
Code:
ActivityMan:GetActivity():SetTeamFunds( ActivityMan:GetActivity():GetTeamFunds(team_number) + add_gold , team_number)


Run based on a timer or something.

Ahh... I saw the setTeamFunds function and didn't even think to just redifine it with basic math :roll:
Thank you!
