Issue Identified:
The main issue was that the floater was showing 0 as the player's pick even after they made a selection, and the correct pick was not being reflected in the float.
Steps Taken:
Improved Data Synchronization: We ensured that the picksData list, which holds player choices, was properly updated and synchronized across all parts of the system.
State Serialization: The game state, including updated picksData, was serialized correctly using the serializeGameState() function. This ensured that the floater was aware of the new state whenever a player's pick changed.
Immediate Float Updates: After updating a player's pick, we immediately sent the new game state (gameSync) to all linked objects to update their floats, ensuring the pick was reflected in the UI.
Key Modifications:
Main Peril Dice Controller: We improved the way we updated picksData and immediately synchronized this update with the floater using MSG_SYNC_GAME_STATE.
StatFloat: Adjustments were made to handle receiving and displaying updated pick data, ensuring that picks were displayed correctly on the float after each update.
Dialog Handling: Proper dialogs were shown to players for pick choices, and feedback on their picks was sent back to update the floats in real-time.
Outcome:
The game now correctly updates and displays the player’s picks on their respective floats immediately after making a choice.
The picks are reflected in the logs as well, with the correct updated pick being shown rather than 0.
Final Result:
The issue of picks not being displayed correctly has been resolved, and the flow of data between the scripts (game state synchronization, float updates, etc.) is working as intended.
