OXCE Support Y-scripts / [Solved] Script access to builtInWeapons.

« on: August 09, 2021, 09:18:28 am »

Continuing this discussion:
https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,9992.0.html

I managed to create an item, which represents shield power. It is built-in in armor, and updates each turn.
But now i want to update it each time the unit is hit. And i can not gain access to this item from "hitUnit:" script hook.

Is this even possible?

OXCE Support Y-scripts / [Solved] Skill script question.

« on: July 14, 2021, 06:21:39 am »

Hi. I am stuck with a question.
I have psi-amp for skills:

Code: [Select]

  - type: STR_WEAPON_2
    battleType: 9
    ...
    tags:
      IS_SKILL: 1 #mentaland soldier skill, based on that item:

Code: [Select]

  - type: STR_STOP_SKILL
    tags:
      SKILL_ID: 17
    costUse:
      time: 5
    targetMode: 14
    compatibleWeapons: [STR_WEAPON_2]
    checkHandsOnly: falseWhen i use

Code: [Select]

    tryPsiAttackUnit:
      - offset: 15   #Always success for inspiration etc.
        code: |
         ...
            skill.getTag skill_id Tag.SKILL_ID;
         ...i get skill_id=17.
But later, when i use:

Code: [Select]

   
    hitUnit:
      - offset: 7   # for scripted items(Fright, Inspiration)
        code: |
          ...
          skill.getTag skill_id Tag.SKILL_ID;
          ...
i get skill_id=0

Question: WHY?

OXCE Support Y-scripts / [Answered] key pressed script hook.

« on: July 13, 2021, 08:54:58 am »

As written, it will be useful to have possibility to use script-based keyboard actions.

First, it was an idea of some kind of report about unit shield power. If it can not be done by some bar or number in stats/mine screen/inventory, then it must be done with flash messages.

But then i found it very potent in other cases.

What do you think?

OXCE Support Y-scripts / [Example] Random fuse time.

« on: August 29, 2020, 10:49:37 am »

Is there any combination of
"fuseType", "fuseTriggerEvents" and "specialChance"
, that will allow to create grenade, exploding in a random turn? Like throw and maybe it will bang in your hand or maybe after 10 hours. Or at least that can explode or not explode after timer runs out.
All i can get now is a grenade, that explode immediately after throw with random chance.

OXCE Support / [Solved] No mana experience on shield hit?

« on: June 10, 2020, 11:26:43 am »

Like i see, damage dealt to unit's shield brings no expirience. Because of final damage=0, i think. At least no mana expirience. Dont know what can be done here, though.

OXCE Bugs / Maybe bug with manufacturing.

« on: April 13, 2020, 02:24:18 pm »

No bug reporting theme on a whole forum, so put it here. Too lazy to register  on github, sorry.
If one want to produce a craft, using another craft as material (in a mod, of course), like craft upgrade or something, will need two hangars to start manufacture. Then one hangar will go empty again.
