easy with hook when the server restarts just destroy the bases at server start up
just make a list of time and date
when the it hits that date the base will be there again
basicly remove it from the destroy list
and when the player launches just beam them to a safe
place
or instantly beam them back to the same base
so it refuses to launch

What do you mean by that adoxa? I wasn’t asking you put that all in there merely letting my mind wander a little and see where it took me.

Ah, okay. I was just tired of people saying “a plugin can do that” with seemingly no idea of just what it takes. “Freelancer 2? Yeah, a plugin can do that!”

Hey adoxa
Is it possible to check destroyed parts of ships to?

Wrecks of ships in FL have already fuses for destroyed parts, but in multiplayer they will respawn.
Would be good to for big solars (like battleships) with destructible parts.

I think it’s time for a break m8…… a well deserved break

@Skotty: I was looking into it, but got sidetracked by my TV tuner. I don’t expect fuses will work, not sure if actually blowing them off is any different (that’s what I was about to test). For fuses, I expect the server knows its run it once, so doesn’t run it again. For the wrecks, the initial fuse should run each time, but the loot fuse should only run once. I don’t think there’s really any way to distinguish which should run more than once and which not, so that’s probably going to have to remain.

Don’t know how long I tried variation of fuses
(including fuses starting other fuses) to keep
a destroyed clanbase burning and smokin’ ……

… without success.

eh wait a sec there wee all ready have control of the fuses

void __stdcall HkLightFuse(IObjRW *ship, uint iFuseID, float fDelay, float fLifetime, float fSkip);
void __stdcall HkUnLightFuse(IObjRW *ship, uint iFuseID, float fDelay);

__declspec(naked) void __stdcall HkLightFuse(IObjRW *ship, uint iFuseID, float fDelay, float fLifetime, float fSkip)
{
	__asm
	{
		lea eax, [esp+8] //iFuseID
		push [esp+20] //fSkip
		push [esp+16] //fDelay
		push 0 //SUBOBJ_ID_NONE
		push eax
		push [esp+32] //fLifetime
		mov ecx, [esp+24]
		mov eax, [ecx]
		call [eax+0x1E4]
		ret 20
	}
}

__declspec(naked) void __stdcall HkUnLightFuse(IObjRW *ship, uint iFuseID, float fDunno)
{
	__asm
	{
		mov ecx, [esp+4]
		lea eax, [esp+8] //iFuseID
		push [esp+12] //fDunno
		push 0 //SUBOBJ_ID_NONE
		push eax //iFuseID
		mov eax, [ecx]
		call [eax+0x1E8]
		ret 12
	}
}

HkUnLightFuse(ship, iFuseID, 0.0f);
HkLightFuse(ship, iFuseID, 0.0f, 0.5f, -1.0f);

motah worked it out ages ago
thats a example of a ship can also be a base ore eny object

Does this plugin work as advertised?

I made the domes on FP9 destructible. Added in the plugin, added it to the Libraries section in dacom.ini and nothing happens. I destroy the base part, reload my character and the broken part just respawns as normal.

You just used it not as advertized.

Ok, that tells me nothing, sorry

Yep. How about destructible movable parts?

For example destructible docking ring:

Killed bay doors
They fly away
Docked
Undocked - they are in place

Think this is more fuse control than object, hmhmhmhm…

no way so far afaik((((999

@adoxa Interesting Server-Side Effect with PersistentDestructibles at Client-Side

[Object]
…
Archetype = bruh ; <-- absent archetype at SolarArch.ini
…

But side-effect is… when you go from this system by jumphole or jumpgate and then go back - the station appeared again.

Seems to be plugin does not send packets when the player comes from the other system
