So, I am trying to organise save files for a multiple-choice game and create a table to mark which save file grants access to which scene
My goal is a table that looks something like this:
So, each row corresponds to a game-scene and each column (except for the first one) corresponds to a save-file
Each scene has separate note in a dedicated folder (and is tagged as a scene), and each save-file is similarly represented by a note in another folder (and tagged as a save-file)
Within each save-file there’re links to every scene that is accessible fom it
Is there a way to create a table like the one on the picture with dataview to show whether two files are linked via checkbox (in this case of whether a save-file note contains a link to a scene note)?
I’m not completely following your logic, but you should be able to solve your logic using comparison towards file.outlinks or file.inlinks if using Dataview.
Some example files would be nice in order to provide more concrete examples, and/or understand your user case.
The task I’m trying to solve here is that the number of event-notes and save-file notes is not stable, and I want the table to update automatically if I add either of the two.
So, even in case the save-file note doesn’t contain any links at all, it should appear as a new column in this table with all the checkboxes empty
Does that makes it clearer?
Maybe it’s easier if I describe them simply as two sets of different notes, let’s say A-notes and B-notes (so A-notes are tagged as #a and B-notes as #b)
I can query a table that will put all the existing A-notes or B-notes one after another in separate rows. But I want to align them in a way that while A-notes are added in rows, B-notes are added in columns. And then, in case B-note has a link to one or more A-notes, let’s say B3 has a link to A2, the table should reflect it:
You still don’t show any examples of how you’ve linked your files together, and are just talking about an overall structure which could implemented in a multitude of different ways. And you don’t show whether you’re tried any queries at all, or are just looking for us to do all the work.
As such, I find it very hard to help you, so good luck with your endeavours.
event notes don’t have any links inside them, they’re empty notes. Save-file notes have links to a list of events.
I didn’t include any queries because I couldn’t find anything at all similar to what I’m trying to do and I’m asking precisely because I’m trying to understand whether it is even possible.
