Hi!

Need integration this OXP with cargopods from Cargo Wreck Teaser and Svengali CCL OXP like external dependency?

Posted: **Fri Oct 27, 2017 7:04 am**

Who want seen working pods from Cargo Wreck Teaser OXP in the oolite 1.84(and more) download from link. It is worked in the newer oolite releases. It is temp link and not official version, may be Arexack Heretic will updated its.

Thanks, it is fixed.

Need add: is_external_dependency = yes; for shipdata from UPS Courier and Cargo Wreck Teaser OXP:
This fix will included in the next release.

If you added UPS Courier and Cargo Wreck Teaser OXP, this error not logging.

Posted: **Sat Nov 18, 2017 2:44 pm**

Version 1.42

- Added a routine for checking a setCargo by other OXPs and etc.
- Added logging condition in the pod ship.script.

Question:
1) Think, need add this feature to a missile pod?:

If you not have a free pylon. Then a missile pod will scooped as firearms. If you have a free pylon and it has been scooped missile pod to the cargo hold. If you like, so you can dumping a firearms and re-scooped for mount to pylon.

2) If player(NPC also) scooped a Bulk Container. It is should be placed in the cargo hold on the 1t-container?

Then if want drop its, then he eject a single 1t-container, rather than a Bulk Container.

3) How reset a content to emty in the cargopod with commodity. It is read-only?

The cargopod.setCargo(commodity, amount); will set the commodity type and quantity, but anything more than 1t will be reset back to 1t.

By default, cargo pods in space are designed to contain a maximum of 1t. When you launch from a station, the cargo marshalling process takes all your available cargo and puts it in your hold as 1t containers so it can be ejected 1t at a time.

It looks like the bulk containers in "Pods" are subverting this a bit, by awarding the player a random tonnage of cargo when it's scooped. The method it appears to use will add a series of 1t containers to your hold, not one container with more than 1t in it. Even if you could adjust the quantity of a cargo pod to more than 1t after being ejected, it would take quite a bit of overhead to monitor and adjust ejected pods, particularly for something that is likely a small scenario. You then also run into problems if a pod with 10t is re-scooped by the player when they have less than 10t space available? What happens to the excess?

My feeling is that trying to get around the 1t cargo pod limit is an exercise in frustration and may not be worth it. I think the only thing you need is some hand-wavium to explain why a bulk container gets broken down into 1t containers as soon as it's scooped.

... , but anything more than 1t will be reset back to 1t.

So set to amount = 0 is not possible for pod? Better removed cargo pod fully?

Ok!
Next question: If player scooped a Bulk Container with Gem-Stones(Gold), then Gem-Stones is should be placed in the new 1t-container or saved in the initial Bulk Container:

Code: Select all

// set a new barrels: scooper.manifest[type] += quantity;

or

Code: Select all

 // save a barrel: this.ship.setCargo(type, quantity);

What is correctly for kg/gram-cargo bulk barrel?

Version 1.43

- Code refactoring: released one script for Bulk container with NPC-scooping feature.
- Added a routine for checking a shipUniqueName for renew of the pod name (for cargo scanner).
- Modified the missilePod script for player-rescooping.
- Upgraded all scripts for NPC-scooping.

Gold, platinum and gems can have more than 1 unit in a cargo pod. When (say) 10g of gems is scooped, it stays in your hold as a 10g cargo pod - you can then eject it like you would any other commodity. After you dock the gems are transferred into your ships safe, so that, when you next launch, you won't be able to eject the gems any more. So, in summary, if the bulk container contains gold, platinum or gems, it can be left as is (and in fact, it's not really a "bulk" container).

I just did a test and was successful in putting 1000kg of gold in a pod, scooped it, ejected it, and it still had 1000kg (=1t). Did the same test with 1000000g (=1t) of gem stones. Anything more than those values, though, and the pod will be reset back to the 1t maximum.

Someone can help correctly write commMessege for NPC the next part:

Code: Select all

	"msg_breach" =
	(
		"Alert! Bad cargo pod!",
	);
	"msg_exploding" =
	(
		"Stop my walk ...",
		"Alert! Bad cargo pod!",
		"Scooped a dangerous good!",
		"My scoops finished, now go home station?",
	);
	"msg_jamming" =
	(
		"It is not sweet cargo!",
		"Fuel buy, repair buy in station!",
		"Damaged cargo scoop, repair bot help me?",
	);

Breach:

Code: Select all

				if (Math.random() > 0.5) {
					msg = "Who transported it is bad " + expandDescription('[pods_radioactives]') + " as " + displayNameForCommodity(type) + "?";
				} else {
					msg = "Help, it is deadly " + displayNameForCommodity(type) + "! Hull breach...";
				}

Exploding:

Code: Select all

				if (Math.random() > 0.5) {
					msg = expandDescription('[msg_exploding]');
				} else {
					msg = "It is bad cannister for " + expandDescription('[pods_firearms]') + "!";
				}

Jam:

Code: Select all

				msg = expandDescription('[msg_jamming]');

May be need edited a text and added some messages? It is messages send by NPC-ships in the scooping a Jam, Breach(planned to add) and Exploding pods. Sorry my bad English.

It is released in the Pods OXP v1.44.

Posted: **Fri Jul 10, 2020 7:08 pm**

10/07/2020 - Version 1.47, updated by Milo
- Fixed errors in the scripts for the breach pod, jam pod, and exploding pod.

12/07/2020 - Version 1.48, updated by Milo
- Fixed another error in the script for the exploding pod.

Available on the wiki, but the in-game OXZ Manager is still pointing to 1.46 because I don't have access to update it.

If Rustem comes back and wants to continue maintaining this, that's fine with me.

Pods seems to have just lost its OXP category according to my Expansions Manager downloaded list (a minute ago!).

It was "Mechanics"

Is this a problem with Pods's very own manifest.plist - or with Oolite.space?

Posted: **Thu Dec 28, 2023 1:00 am**

It’s because the manifest.plist file is missing the category element. So, oolite.space is fine.

Posted: **Thu Dec 28, 2023 11:45 am**

I've just pushed an update for this, so the issue should be resolved as soon as the catalog rebuilds.
