Hey guys,

I need to write a KeyValue structure like this:

"Menu"
{
    "Category1"
    {
        "item"     "Command1"
        "item"     "Command2"
        "item"     "Command3"
        "item"     "Command4"
    }
    "Category2"
    {
        "item"     "Command5"
        "item"     "Command6"
    }
}

But all I get is this:

"Menu"
{
    "Category1"
    {
        "item"     "Command4"
    }
    "Category2"
    {
        "item"     "Command6"
    }
}

It seems that KvSetString() only allow one entry with a due name.

Is there a way to get around that!? To force it to repeat itself?

Thanks in advance.

No you can't. It's the way Valve coded the keyvalues system(The EXACT same system SM KeyValues natives use)

The sub-keys must have unique names within each key. For example itemOne, itemTwo.

Fixed?

This was intented to create a "admin_sorting.txt" file to sort my menus.

Guess I'll have to write my own function to write the file, then.

Thanks guys

admin_sorting.txt isn't KeyValues. It's in "SourceMod Configuration" (or SMC) format. While it looks a lot like KeyValues, the two aren't the same.

Oh. Didn't realize that. Thanks Powerlord.

My intention was to create a sorting file in the exact same order as the menu_custom.txt. So I've written a little function use the "files" functions that did the trick quite well. It even deletes the file afterwards. It's pretty simple and worked quite well.

Thanks to all for the assistance.
