Download updated, please read
readme.txt and plugin_documentation.txt

The readme.txt now also includes the admin commands for dealing with plugins.

Rather large update:

1.5.7 plugin beta (unofficial)

• included FLCoreSDK (see readme.txt in ./src/sdk/FLCoreSDK) by Skif
• added many FLHook exports (see FLHook.h in the sdk folder)
• added FLServer header files that should now be the base for further reversing development (see sdk folder)
• socket: added some security measures to further protect the socket interface from external attacks (IPs are now logged)
• socket: set the outgoing buffer to 300kb so that long messages dont get cut
• ingame chat: fixed flserver native commands “/l”, “/s” and “/g”, local chat is now blue (only if chatfont usercommand is enabled)
• ini: ReservedSlots, TorpMissileBaseDamageMultiplier and Debug added
• code: removed FLHookStart injection and unload features completely
• code: hooked IServerImpl::Startup so that advanced hooks can be installed prior to the actual server startup
• init: FLHook now forces the FLServer to load the complete universe before going live (fixes an autobuy bug and helps spotting errors in mods)
• log: all log files are now saved in “Freelancer/EXE/flhook_logs/” instead of the multiplayer accounts folder
• ping/loss: removed connection checking functionality and put them into an advanced connection plugin

Note, there no longer is a simple “Example plugin”. There are now 2 plugins of which the source code is included, they now form the “example” (also to show how inter plugin communication is meant to be done).

both, readme.txt and plugin_documentation.txt have received a major update, check them out

The source for the complete flhook plugin version is now included.

Release Notes:

End User Notes:

Please check the changes to the FLHook.ini to make sure you dont have invalid settings. There is now a new Log section which allows for a detailed setup of different logging options.
Also, the lag detection of the condata plugin has been changed, the “LagDetectionMinimum” is now a percentage value. 50% seems to be a good, balanced value. The syntax of the user commands implemented by the condata plugin has also been changed, it is now “/ping” and “/pingtarget”.
Also new is a help command, you can activate it by setting
Help=yes
under [UserCommands] in FLHook.ini

Developer Notes:

There are multiple important changes, so please read this carefully!
First, there is a new export:
extern __declspec(dllimport) bool g_bPlugin_nofunctioncall;
(in plugin.h in the sdk/headers folder)
g_bPlugin_nofunctioncall==true indicates to your plugin that the original function should not be called because either it has been called by a previous plugin, or a previous plugin wants to prevent the function from being called.
This adds a layer of compatability for plugin functions that need to be executed after certain server methods, like IServerImpl::PlayerLaunch.
Admin rights:
3 new rights have been added to be used by plugins for special commands. They are “special1”-3.
Also, check the plugin documentation for the new help-UserCommand (to insert your plugin commands if you wish to use it) and the BaseDestroyed function.
Also, there are new vars being exported now:
iDmgTo
iDmgToSpaceID (new! if an npc or other object than a player is hurt, this is very useful)
g_bMsg g_bMsgS g_bMsgU
Some words about the addcargo and rename functions. Both functions may now perform bad when used excessively. This has to be evaluated though, it is just a warning. On the other hand, they now should be completely bug-free.
