    Improve crew auto-assigning: Overstaffing

    in Suggestions & Idea Voting

    Posted

    For example I have something like this on my ship:

    Crewmen: 1 unassigned

    Engineers: 122%

    Mechanics: 128%

     

    I don't think that auto-assigning shop keep it this way. Especially when it unassignes this 1 crewmen from his nice and comfortable job as an Engineer. I think it should assign this guy to the Engineers to get the most profit:

    Engineers: 130%

    Mechanics: 128%

    Improve Capitan AI: "Support" command

    in Suggestions & Idea Voting

    Posted

    Currently if you'll place repair turrets (even if they're auto-turrets) on the ship with capitain, ship will not fire them. I tried giving all commands with no luck.

     

    So, maybe add new command "Support"? Maybe it should be some kind of semi-command. I mean you should be able to command "Wait here and support" or "Follow me and support" or "Patrol and support".

    Scrapyard: improve faction AI

    in Suggestions & Idea Voting

    Posted

    Currently if pirates/xsotan are attacking sector and you're trying to defend scrapyard, you will lose some relations when you destroy enemies, because as parts of their ships fall off you attack them for a second or two and without license it's prohibited.

    Same with full ships remains after enemies death.

     

    Maybe just make some 1-3 seconds delay, for example attach timestamp to the remains of the ship if it was destroyed on scrapyard. Or something more elegant.

    How to register Galaxy callback for a namespaced mod?

    in Mods

    Posted

    I'm a bit confused with this new system of namespaces. I'm trying to change vanilla files as less as possible and trying to use namespaces at the same time.

     

    I read others code and see that working with Entities or Sector is still similar - just do as usual and it will work:

    addScriptOnce("path/to/your/namespaced/mod.lua")

     

    However there is no way to attach script to the Galaxy. So I'm seeing 2 variants:

     

    1. Just put everything in vanilla server.lua - Obviously bad idea

     

    2. My current way, which is not working:

    server.lua

    package.path = package.path .. ";data/scripts/lib/?.lua"
package.path = package.path .. ";data/scripts/server/?.lua"
require ("factions")
require ("stringutility")

package.path = package.path .. ";mods/mymod/scripts/server/?.lua"
require("MymodServer")

function onStartUp()
    Server():registerCallback("onPlayerLogIn", "onPlayerLogIn")
    Server():registerCallback("onPlayerLogOff", "onPlayerLogOff")
    Galaxy():registerCallback("onPlayerCreated", "onPlayerCreated")
    Galaxy():registerCallback("onFactionCreated", "onFactionCreated")
    
    MymodServer.init()
end

     

    MymodServer.lua

    package.path = package.path .. ";data/scripts/lib/?.lua"
require ("galaxy")
require ("utility")
require ("faction")
require ("randomext")

-- Don't remove or alter the following comment, it tells the game the namespace this script lives in. If you remove it, the script will break.
-- namespace MymodServer
MymodServer = {}

function MymodServer.init()
    print("Mymod: init")
    Galaxy():registerCallback("onAllianceCreated", "onAllianceCallback")
end

function MymodServer.onAllianceCallback()
    print("Mymod: alliance created")
end

     

    As a result I get "Mymod: init" but no "Mymod: alliance created" when I create an alliance.

     

    Can someone give me a hint?

     

    UPD: I understand that I can just make onAllianceCallback in the server.lua. But why my way doesn't work?

    umbilical docking

    in Suggestions & Idea Voting

    Posted

    Until the real docking will be implemented (I doubt that this will happen soon), there is an idea of using the same docking port that we use for stations. And if you have it installed just trade using this "transport beam", which is currently used for trading with NPC ships.

    Wasting an upgrade slot doesn't feel like a good idea.

    Drone emerging when ship is completely disassembled or destoyed

    in Suggestions & Idea Voting

    Posted

    (Link to original thread)

     

    [*]Please return old behaviour that when you completelly disassemble and delete your ship in "Build mode", you'll just emerge in your drone.

    What is happenning now is that you will be teleported in your home sector like you was completely destroyed. This makes no sense and renders whole 'delete full ship to get all resources back' almost useless.

     

     

    [*]Also I suggest to emerge drone when your ship is destroyed, instead of teleporting you in your spawn sector right away. This happens sometimes, usually when you crash into the asteroid, but most of the times it's like it destroyed a moment after for some reason.

    As I already decribed in the original thread, this will:

     

    • Help to soften the start process for players, because in Iron-Naonite stage you will not be able to jump really far.
       
       
    • Calm players (especially new ones) down.
      I often see angry reviews in Steam like "built cool ship but then it was destroyed and I needed to fly really far to get it".
      If you'll change this mechanics, new players that die a lot in the start of the game will not be that angry, but as they progress to the core, drone will not break balance that much, because if the enemy fire is dense or it's a PvP, drone will be easilly destroyed.
       
       
    • Be logical. Captain should have an escape pod, right?)

     

    I feel like earlier the drone emerged in this sutiations - Bug or not?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I just did some tests:

    1. If you crash your ship into asteroid, drone usually emerges. But my friend reported that when he crashed, he was teleported to the home sector. Maybe it depends on Integrity field generator or if your first(core) block is destroyed, then your drone will not emerge.

    2. When you fight someone it seems that either drone is not emerging or emerging and dying at the same second. I can't really understand.

     

    Anyways, thanks for your answer, I'll just make another post in "Suggestions" then.

    I feel like earlier the drone emerged in this sutiations - Bug or not?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    First of all, if you'll turn off "Safe mode" and delete your ship, the game acts like you're dead in some way. I mean, instead of emerging the drone at the place where you deleted your ship, it just spawns you in your home sector. I definetely remember that in earlier versions it acted differently.

     

    And I also remember that earlier when you crashed into something or sometimes when your ship was destroyed by NPC, you drone emerged again. Now you just respawn.

     

    I don't feel like it's a good idea to have this behaviour. Player needs either to grind 75k with certain faction to be able to set respawn point or get 26kk to build an Alliance Repair Dock. On the one hand it prevents people from rushing towards the center.

    But on the other.. For example to get to the "ok" titanium fields now I need to make a lot of jumps. Fortunately I found a wormhole that helps. But any crash and I'm back again on spawn.

     

    I feel like it should be some kind of balance in this. Maybe emerging drone on your ship death with some chance. Because if you're under attack of several good ships (which will happen at least in trinium sectors if I remember this correctly), they will be able to destroy your drone easilly.

    But for iron-naonite sectors maybe emerging drone will make the start less painfull. Especially since pirate-NPC were buffed (at least I feel like that).

     

    So, is it normal behaviour or bug?

    [Question] How to use the drawDebugSphere() function

    in Mods

    Posted

    I tried to found some info and that is what I found:

     

    You can look at dev's 'examples' in the following files:

    data\scripts.old\entity\ai\mine.lua - line 141-147

    data\scripts.old\entity\ai\salvage.lua - line 148-154

    data\scripts.old\lib\entitydbg.lua - line 304-322

     

    They're very similar though.

    I suppose you should use this draw function inside of one of the following functions:

    updateClient()

    onPreRenderHud() - ClientSector Callbacks

    onPostRenderHud() - ClientSector Callbacks

    quick question, could you do the same thing with colour/paint?

    I'm not sure that this will work in the game. Every player has his own collor pallete which was collected during the play. And I don't think that game will allow to load colors that you don't have.

    I had some free time so.. I found errors in the new build too  ;)

     

    GET file:///D:/Downloads/.Torrents/Avorion.v0.11.7854/Mods/3lex-avorion-shiptool-ca960acd253f/src/avtool.min.js net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND

    Because there is no avtool.min.js in the src folder. There is avtool.js however.

     

    More errors:

    When you select a file and then select no file:

    avtool.js:28 Uncaught TypeError: Failed to execute 'readAsText' on 'FileReader': parameter 1 is not of type 'Blob'.
    at onDataImport (avtool.js:28)
    at HTMLInputElement.onchange (index.htm:13)

     

    Small errors:

    Then if you fix this 2 errors, after loading the xml file and after that, selecting no file, the old headers will stay. Like "TRINIUM (3)" but with no trinium parts in it. So there is no headers cleaning before you select a file.

    I haven't figured out how to fix it. You know your code better and I'm just not very good when it comes to a big amount of libraries.

     

    Anyway, there is a small hotfix with the first 2 bugs fixed. I hope you don't mind.

    You need to install it on the top of the current build.

    When I have Hangar in the ship. I looked at your code, you need to add Hangar to the blocklist.js. Hangar has blockIndex = 10.
