---|---|---|---|---|---|
UI extensions | 2.00 Beta 1 | FFI: GetUpgradeSlotCurrentComponent()/GetUpgradeSlotGroup() works on non-operationals | |||
Before 2.0 Beta 1 using GetUpgradeSlotCurrentComponent() or GetUpgradeSlotGroup() only performed on operational objects (i.e. not wrecked objects or objects under construction). Since this is inconsistent with the rest of the UI functions, this was considered a bug and fixed in 2.0 Beta 1. If you require the old behavior, use the FFI function: IsComponentOperational() to check the passed object's state before making the call. | |||||
UI extensions | 2.00 Beta 1 | FFI: SetFormationShape() no longer indicates an error upon certain error cases | |||
Before 2.0 Beta 1 a call to SetFormationShape() indicated an error state to the caller in certain cases where setting a formation shape (potentially) failed. Due to a design flaw in the handling of formations, this however doesn't do any good, since the function by itself doesn't really set the formation shape in all cases. On top of that the call can fail at random. Hence, at the moment an indication of an error case that setting a formation potentially fails is no good to the caller and he has no means to distinguish that case from a real error case. | |||||
Scripts | 2.00 Beta 1 | <create_formation/> now requires the attributes: 'leader' and 'follower'. Attribute 'object' is now deprecated. | |||
This now enforces a leader and at least one follower in order to create or change a formation. Former implementation made it possible to create formations without any followers which led to issues. | |||||
Scripts | 2.00 Beta 1 | <event_player_changed_target/> now fires and returns null if the player deselects a target. | |||
For prior behavior, check for event.param being non-null. | |||||
AI Scripts | 2.00 Beta 1 | <shoot/>/<shoot_at/> attribute changes. | |||
Changed: Attribute "primary" is now optional and defines whether weapons from the ship's active primary weapon group will be fired. Defaults to true. Corrects now-obsolete assumption that primary weapon groups only contain guns and secondary weapon groups only contain missile launchers. | |||||
UI extensions | 2.00 Beta 1 | FFI: GetBuildTask()/GetNumBuildTasks() got a new "buildmoduleid" parameter. | |||
Added possibility to query build tasks of a certain buildmodule. | |||||
UI extensions | 2.00 Beta 1 | Lua: GetLibraryEntry() retrieved a new "buildresources" field. | |||
Added list of resources a buildmodule needs to build. | |||||
UI extensions | 2.00 Beta 1 | Lua: CalculateTotalHullFraction() was removed. | |||
Unused, derelict function from XR - use GetComponentData(..., "hullpercent") instead. | |||||
UI extensions | 2.00 Beta 1 | FFI: RequestDockAtReason()/UndockPlayerShip() changed their return values. | |||
Changed return value type to const char* to better identify failure reasons in Lua script. | |||||
UI extensions | 1.50 Beta 3 | Lua: GetComponentData() changed behavior of "docksizes" propertly. | |||
The "docksizes" property no longer includes internal ship storage docks. | |||||
All | 1.50 Beta 2 | Meaning of "Shipyard" was corrected throughout Lua/MD/AI scripts, so that Wharfs are not Shipyards (unlike in XR). | |||
Shipyards (formerly also known as Capital Shipyards) can build capital ships, while Wharfs only build non-capital ships. To check whether a station is a Shipyard or a Wharf, check whether the station "can build ships". Lua: Adjusted GetComponentData() and HasShipyard(), added HasWharf() | |||||
UI extensions | 1.50 Beta 2 | FFI: UpgradeGroupInfo datatype was changed. | |||
Added new "operational" field to | UpgradeGroupInfo struct.Added retrieve information about number of operational upgrades in a group, affected functions: GetUpgradeGroupInfo(). | ||||
UI extensions | 1.50 Beta 1 | FFI: Removed SetGuidance()removed useinfopoint argument useinfopoint. | |||
In X Rebirth "info points" existed (which were mainly used as interaction points to scan stations/access information about modules). These were removed in X4 but this left-over property here was missed to be removed in-time for release. It was therefore removed now in order to move towards a stable/clean UI API. The new function declaration is: void SetGuidance(UniverseID componentid, UIPosRot offset) | |||||
UI extensions | 1.50 Beta 1 | FFI: Changed return value for CancelConstruction() changed its return value. | |||
CancelConstruction() now returns if the cancellation was successful. | |||||
UI extensions | 1.32 | Lua: Removed GetComponentData() property removed the "nextdestname" property. | |||
Instead of "nextdestname", use the GetComponentData() properties "destination" or "destinationsector" to retrieve a destination component, then retrieve its "name" property. | |||||
UI extensions | 1.20 | FFI: Added GetAAOption() got a new "useconfig" parameter to GetAAOption(). | |||
The AA setting was changed to check the new setting with the user. In order to restore the old setting GetAAOption() gets the option to retrieve the config settings. |
