Oolite Bulletins

Or are you referring to a different comment? Yes. This is the comment in question. // percentage chance of equipment being fixed, for tech <9 chance = 100%, dropping 10% per level above 8. Nothing in the code relates to the tech level. Instead, all repairs have a 70% chance of being repaired at any...

saying that, box.net allows people to share one folder, maybe if L could invite, Im already a member, as I thought it could be handy, otherwise not sure how else to keep us all on the same page? If you tell me how exactly to do that I'll do. Where you see a box.net folder, click the blue dropdown b...

To remove confusion, the false comments about the repair chance being based on the tech level have been removed from this script.

The CaduceusAutorepair.js file on box.net has been updated, as well as has ose npc timer scripts.7z

Learned something new with the slice command though, although the improvement looks quite minimal ;) In terms of execution of code it is minimal, however when it comes to other people understanding the of code it adds a lot there. Sometimes improvements are about making things more understandable f...

Another update that will occur to this script is to improve the list of items that can be repaired. They need to be handled in a better way than a series of named arrays, because things easily become missing, or out of place. Case in point, the third array lists a percentage of chance for the previo...

20:30, 25 August 2009 (hist) (diff) Oolite JavaScript Reference: Timer 20:13, 25 August 2009 (hist) (diff) Oolite JavaScript Reference: Timer Are both on that list, and seem to refer to timers. It might be what Eric is referring to. Ahh, further back than a month and below the fold back into August...

From the original code, this doesn't do what's written on the tin. this.fixChance = this.eqChance[this.damagedItemNumber]; // for tech <9 chance = 100%, dropping 10% per level above 8. this.fixTry = Math.random() * 100; if (this.fixTry < this.fixChance) { this.fixItem(); } else { player.consoleMessa...

matthewfarmery, could you update pmw57's newest versions into the batch downloadable from your sig? As an advisory, the CaduceusAutorepair.js has more work that needs to be done on it. Anyone feel like deciding if the repairs should stay at the same chance of occurring (70%) as it is now, or if the...

By the way, do you think that playerWillExitSystem should be used instead of playerWillEnterWitchspace, as advised by Commander McLane? No, look at the wiki page about handlers. The wiki page about handlers seems to be light on the topic. It has a brief mention about how tickle handler might be nec...

While we are deciding, I shall adjust the code so that the appropriate term will only need to be updated in one location.

By the way, do you think that playerWillExitSystem should be used instead of playerWillEnterWitchspace, as advised by Commander McLane?

I find myself faced with a dilemma. While I have taken upon my shoulders the responsibility of being in charge of OSE scripting code, how am I to ensure that the code meets a certain minimum standard of quality? Am I to point people to the JavaScript beautifier or even better to JS Lint with careful...

@Thargoid - don't panic. I've just gone over the fuel station code (satellite & station) and there is nothing to worry about. I know that it's stressful having code put under the spotlight, but it really is for the best. The only changes have been to bring the code presentation in line with wide...
