Forcing player to undock

[Alex.]

Is it possible to force a player to undock using FLHook’s plugin API? (If so, how?) Or does this require a client hook?

I think there was something like this in some server, that you spawn near the base after docking… Well, I think its Hookable.

With FlHook you can kick players, who idle @ base:

; … AntiBaseIdle: time in seconds after which a player will be kicked for idling on a base/planet, no matter
; if he’s active or not (set to 0 to disable)

I suppose, it will motivate 'em 2 undock,
if you set it low enough.

but not too low. a player should have time to calculate a destination path and economical management with trade goods, equipment and probably even the change of his spaceship.

No Gisteron, I don’t want the player to be able to use the base as anything but a bypass to the limit we have where we can’t move players across systems without moving them to a base.

[Gisteron]

well, why don’t you ask for an extension of the beam command, where the admin could define the system and coordinates. there is something like that already in use, sure the inventor could modify it like that.

I have that ftl version of the BSG FLHook, but it never worked when I tried it (about a year ago?) and didn’t include the source.
