I don't know what it's called but I need help with it

I was writing code for a game of mine, and remembered the code used for Brendan's chat themes I want to know how to access the information within those types...

Yoo thank you guys so much! This helps a great ton!
Unfortunately, my dumb little brain isn't quite able to grasp what's going on in Varrience's examples, but hopefully I'll be able to understand it later. Still, it means a lot, thank you guys!

Varrience

Mellow ah i see... well you should be able to grasp my example by putting in into a new project or basically almost any JS interpreter and start playing around with what I've got (make sure you use the 2nd iteration of my example as that one you can run), my 2nd example is basically like Ack's... I don't think its that much more of a stretch of a concept or just go off of what Ack said as well if you plan to learn more on your own, Good Luck!

INTERNECION Number one thing not to do when you don't want to sound pissed is to not use all caps. All caps 99% of the time mean that you are shouting, and if you're shouting, it's going to be assumed that you are indeed angry. It especially does not help you when you combine a warning with all caps. It comes across more as an angry threat than a warning. Instead, use italics when you want to put emphasis into a certain part. (yea I used caps for 2 words that one time then remembered the tilted I was a thing so 👍)

INTERNECION

Mellow Well I usually use all caps for emphasis and not for yelling. I mean what will I yell at the screen for? It isn't like it just booted up my i.p. adress from out of nowhere. Haha

Mellow

Oh and, using words that refer to the offender is also usually unhelpful. For example, you should say
"This goes against our rules, please don't do that again"
Instead of
"You are breaking our rules, don't do that again"

Mellow

INTERNECION eh fair, but it's still best to not use all caps, as long as there are ways to emphasize in other ways. (if there aren't ways to emphasize, I usually a d d s p a c e s in between my words, but that's annoying so it's fine if there's no options)
And the controversy
Uh
~~many words, yes~~

Oh also also-
Full sentences with all caps are worse than single words with all caps, cuz then you're going to look like you're really pissed off. plus if I were to emphasize an entire sentence, its just kinda... a normal sentence looking different, rather than it actually putting any emphasis in
Though it can work for much shorter sentences
emphasizing long sentences doesn't do much

INTERNECION

alright then. But did you see my explanation about the controversy as well?

Mellow

ackvonhuelio uh it looks like the for loop isn't quite working, I'm testing it with hidden achievements and it just shows as 0, even though there's a few

Varrience

Mellow well did you format it properly? the way Ack show it is object array and i'll give a smaller demo of what he did that way it should be followable

// This is a DEMO please read comments if your stuck or confused
var accomp = [
  {
    title: "new world", // a title of the achivement optional properties like description can also be added
    unlocked: true // the property to look for if we unlocked the achivement
  }, // , <= is important since this is an array
  {
    title: "pro",
    unlocked: false
  },
  {
    title: "gamer",
    unlocked: true
  }
];
// here we are going to count how many achivements we have left
console.log(accomp.length) // <= this will give us how many achivements we have
var unlocked = 0; // keeps track of the current achivements we have
for (var a = 0; a < accomp.length; a++) { // here we iterate through the array
  if (accomp[a].unlocked === true) { // === true doesn't need to be there if's already look for a boolean outcome
    unlocked += 1; // we add here how many is unlocked
  }
}
// here is something more complex we know how many achivements we unlocked and how many we have,
// but how do we show that as output since "-" statements are illegal in console.log statements
var achivementsLeft = accomp.length - unlocked; // this makes it so no () are needed
console.log("You have " + unlocked + " achivements so far\n There's " + achivementsLeft + " left go get em champ")
// this is how it would be done given that you didn't want to declare a variable for a result
console.log("You have " + unlocked + " achivements so far\n There's " + (accomp.length - unlocked) + " left go get em champ")

Mellow mellow do you know where fluffy at because I message him

Mellow

Varrience I see what I have done wrong and am fixing it, thank you!

person

yeah none of us can actually understand varriance but just go with whatever he's saying its probably right.

ackvonhuelio

Mellow
for loops are suuupeeerr useful, so definitely take the time to actually learn how they work and don't just copy and paste

INTERNECION

INTERNECION lol really what did i do because all i type was

2kChubz Disrespectful??? nah bro went to far

INTERNECION

2kChubz Alright since a one day suspension wasn't enough for you to not start any problems. then I will just give you a three day. At this point and time all you do is instigate and that is a problem. You have done nothing to help anyone since the day you came on this forum. I will not deal with your shenanigans again. So now that you understand what you're doing is ban worthy, a three day suspension should suffice. Come back when you actually have the competence to have a decent conversation and not causing problems for no reason. Here cool off for the moment
