FLhook Mobile Docking

FR

BTW
M0tah’s 1.6 has some more outstanding features as

kick after beam
enhanced settings for cloaks
mount restrictions
docking restrictions
and some more (we hopefully will see as plugin).

A BIG TY 4 this great work.

And back 2 the topic:
4 the mobile docking feature
you ll need a xtra base in every system
if i understood that stuff correct.

@M0tah thanks for that saved me allot of grief hopefully it will let me get a good understanding of hook and
maby some day ill come up with a few on my own to contribute
but anyways thanks allot for that

FriendlyFire

Just saying M0tah, but maybe you would be interested in transferring your FLHook version into a set of plugins? I’m sure it would kickstart development of other plugins and it would probably be more practical for less tech-savvy server admins…

Or you can also let someone else do that job for you, too

JONG

I must say that, M0tah’s FLHook is great, hope maybe someday he can make his FLHook version into a set of plugins.

Thanks M0tah, thanks for your hard work. ;D

M0tah

I’ve actually started making some of the features into plugins. So far I’ve made a docking restrictions plugin and also have made a plugin that contains all the new functions I’ve added to Flak’s FLHook so it’ll be a lot easier to make plugins out of the features in it.

I was in the middle of making a plugin that contains improved death messages when I realized that the FLHook plugin version didn’t export an important variable used in the original code…so I posted here. w0dk4 hasn’t responded to the post and it doesn’t look like the other variables mentioned in the thread were put in the plugin version 1.5.9…and I was kinda waiting for a new plugin version to resume development on my plugins. Well, I guess I can just hold off on the improved death messages plugin until w0dk4 releases a new plugin version.

Expect a thread containing plugins based off of features from 88 Flak’s FLHook to be posted in the plugins forum in the near future ;).

@F!R:

4 the mobile docking feature

Yes, you understood it correctly. For the mobile docking you’ll need another base in every system (look in the readme for complete info). The base is where the player is actually docked when they dock with a carrier.

FLHookWString.dll why do you need that

jase240

awesome version there, im gonna try to get it working on my server, its just what i was looking for!

jase240

I do have a question though, how do you change whats displayed with the /help command, it only shows a few commands.

M0tah

The /help text is hardcoded. It should display all of the longhand versions of the commands available. You can then enter in /help <command></command>to see all the details of the command, including shortcuts.

jase240

i use some FLshell command like the restart command for templates, also btw I have made the base put ships in list for docking and still cant dock with mobile docking, can I get a step by step explain? Also is there a way for me to disable the beam kick, when we beam on our server we just normally reload char but the beam kick does a little more than that it kicks us and sometimes I myself cant reconnect.

jase240

nvm I found out in the source code how to edit all that, just cant get a DLL compiler to compile it, what compiler did you use, and how can I get it?

jase240

could not edit post hmm… well also cant do mobile docking, I assign ships right and base file ( i think) and it still says docking not allowed.

M0tah

@jase240:

what compiler did you use, and how can I get it?

Using Ultimate++, a C++ IDE, you can use the free VC++ 2003 toolkit to compile and link FLHook.
How to:
Download and install the Windows SDK and the VC++ 2003 Toolkit.
Download and install Ultimate++. In the after install config, select the directory you installed the Windows SDK to if it is not automatically detected (“C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2” by default).
There should be a Ultimate++ project file included with the source code that you can load. Note that you will only be able to build release builds because the VC++ 2003 toolkit is missing a required lib file for building debug builds. If you run into problems, check out this thread.

@jase240:

could not edit post hmm… well also cant do mobile docking, I assign ships right and base file ( i think) and it still says docking not allowed.

Make sure that you are in the same group as the other player. If you are and it still says docking not allowed, check the FLHook console window for something like “WARNING: Mobile docking proxy base does not exist in system bla”. If one of those warnings is present, you probably don’t have the proxy base named correctly. A proxy base in New York should have an entry like this, for example```
[Object]
nickname = Li01_Mobile_Proxy_Base
…

jase240

cant get the compiler to work well, it works but just not completly sure how to make it export full DLL, not just 100kb of it

I tried another method and had these errors

I even tried with the project file you had and it stilll had full list of errors

M0tah

In case you haven’t read this thread, you’ll need to add the HkCbOther.cpp file to the project file since I forgot to update it for 1.6.0.

@jase240:

I tried another method and had these errors

It looks like it isn’t linking to the Windows API correctly. I think this could be caused by having the Platform SDK library directory before the VC++ Toolkit library directory, but I’m not sure.

jase240

btw I did add that other CPP

Small idea:

I m always irritated by players spawning / undocking from destroyed stuff.
Maybe it could be a nice feature, to ‘lock’ chars, which are docked at a destroyed
solar or mobile base for a hour or 2.

Might be possible, so FL keeps you on the base, if you have no scanner ……

Hehe, I would let them get beamed to some part of the universe, maybe a special system where “dead” pilots respawn?
