json.lua VS PathOfBuilding

One option might be to look at the Path of Building “Data” folder. If you need them in another format (e.g. json), it wouldn’t be that hard to write a Lua script to export them in your preferred format (using this json library, for example.

If you don't want to reinvent the wheels, you might want a json encoder to transform data into strings and back. Or bitser if you want better performance and smaller files in exchange for human-readability.

Honestly, I just went with JSON because there's a nice Lua library for it (thank you https://github.com/rxi/json.lua).

I haven't thought about the file format much so far, just the experience of writing in it as if it's the "ground truth". We all seldom open our text files in a hex editor.

JSON https://github.com/rxi/json.lua

Get json.lua from here. Put it in your project directory alongside file1.lua.

Good point. How about this? It allows you to encode/decode Lua values into/from JSON.

I like this json library and tend to use it for save files (also makes them easy to edit by hand while debugging). It gets angry if you use tables with a mix of string and numerical keys, but I'd advise against that anyway. I've also used binser, which is also effective and easy to use.

lua json module can be found from here: https://github.com/rxi/json.lua

I'm assuming you already have Path of Building Community Fork, which should be at the top of your list.

POB uses those but only those hence the issue. Before POB used to check if the support gem can support the summoning gem before checking the skilltypes on the minion skill but that caused issues as well. https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding/pull/4628

Another thing. Learn to use Path of Building and whenever you ask for advice, provide your character via the share function. PoE is complex game, and without actually seeing your character, there's no way to really help you. The possibilities are immense.

Download the current PoB. https://pathofbuilding.community/

Download the community fork of Path of Building (pob). This is a build simulator where you can theory craft and test items/passives/gems. It's probably the single most useful third party tool for the game. There's a slight learning curve but it is worth it. Plenty of good starter videos out there just for pob too, like this video from popular content creator Zizaran.

If you'd like to help out with PoB but don't have much technical expertise with coding, we're looking to improve our documentation through the use of a help file for new and existing users. You can open it in PoB by pressing F1 while hovering over blank space If you're looking to contribute, head here and have a look what still needs some documentation: https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding/issues/6093

Do you use Avast? If so that could be the cause as it has affected a large number of other users. Have a look here and see if you find a solution https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding/issues/6287
