Dev's Limit Breaking 101 Techniques

Huhu in newest hhc mod they added the roll feature with your hack.
But now their is a bug that sometimes after you login or undock you have to press the key to activate roll or you are not able to fly in proper mouseflight. Maybe you know a way to fix it, my first idea was to make a hack to turn roll always on so I ask for such an hack

I also am looking for the dockpoint radius of tradelanes, since it is way too small for bigger ships.

I’m after this one as well

Thanks guys, I’ll get the missing Waypoint ones in. Sorry I haven’t been around much, just been busy.

Edit: I’ve added adoxa’s turret view steering fix and the waypoint offsets to the list.

Do we know why in some mods the ship exit speed from jumpgates is zero?

Can it be fixed?

common.dll	13E678	2000f = how far behind a jumpgate a player will be spawned - from this point, the player will be thrown forward at exceptional speed until he/she has reached the gate ~fox

??

Gisteron

no solution. once the player reaches the gate he again will have a velocity of zero even with previously killed engines. guess though a hack is needed to prevent that. it’s not yet on the wiki or the limit breaking however, if there is a such and if it can be found.

Gisteron

different question… is there a way to define, how many geometric meters are a “K(ilometer)” ingame and how many decimal digits the hud can show about your distance to an object?

adoxa

Can’t really do fractions of meters, and it sounds like if you want more decimals, you don’t want K, for which there are already hacks (HUD: Limits; FL Hack also has options for it).

Legion

Speaking of decimals I have a few requests if they should be possible…

1. - Allow decimals in prices for everything, also in the credits display.

2. - Make FL show cargo space with atleast one decimal. Two would be better

Alot of things in my mod is less than 1 volume unit such as 0.1, 0.2, 0.25 and so on, but when I buy a single unit of those it shows up as 1 unit being used in the cargohold!

Gisteron

what i thought of is showing distances in X.XXX nautical miles instead of X.X kilometers. so, meaning the distance where meters are shown instead of k’s to hack down to 0 and to make a k 1852 meters instead of 1000 meters… possible?

adoxa

@Legion:

1. Cash is stored as integer, so there’s no point.

```The string needs to change **%d** (both of them) to **%g** (may end up with more decimals than intended, but will remove them if not needed) or **%.2f** (always has two decimals).

@Gisteron:

Use nautical miles (1852m) for distance and knots (nm/hour) for speed.

So, what about display more than one group member location icon on map displayer? It’s available in 1.0 but disabled on 1.1. Why it been disabled? how to get it back?

You can see more than one group member on nav map with v1.0?

NeXoSE

Yes, in 1.0 without any path. You can try it yourself, it’s really…
