STORY
3130 MGMT - GalCop begins a programme of retrofitting out-of-date communications equipment on older vessels. At the same time, satellite and comms buoys are upgraded.
- source: Encyclopedia Galactica
And communications companies popped up like mushrooms, offering dubious and sometimes very expensive services,
each trying to grab the biggest slice of this new market, swept up by a goldrush fever. Only a handful of news agencies survived the ensuing 'War of Information' - an orgy of mergers, acquisitions, lawsuits and the occasional little bit of terrorism and sabotage - to create today's stable news market that we know and love.
And Snoopers brings them to you. Directly onto your screen, through your eyeballs and into your brain.
CHANNELS
Snoopers
Rooters
The Tionisla Chronicle
FEATURES
Snoopers gives players some nice and well-thought screens to learn a bit more about the Ooniverse brought to you by all established news agencies. News can be accessed via the SYSTEM DATA SCREEN (F7), when any important news are available.
- Four established news agencies
- Sound and Music
- Designed screens
- Useable for other oxps
- Configurable (by editing or OXPConfig2) and selfconfiguring (v1.74+)
OXPConfig2
Snoopers can be adjusted via the following properties...
| this.logging | Boolean | Internal logging |
|---|---|---|
| this.audio | Boolean | Music on missionscreens and sound for commsMessage |
| this.extraA | Boolean | Background pic and rotating logo |
| this.sliderA | INT | Chance factor for a newsflash |
| this.sliderB | INT | Max pause in days between newsflashes |
| this.sliderC | INT | Adjusts the brightness of the rotating logo |
USAGE FOR OTHER OXPS:
Snoopers has a inbuilt feature to implement news. This gives other worldScripts a platform to add even more flavour
and to integrate own stories. The standard syntax is:
worldScripts.snoopers.insertNews( this.name , message : String);
this.name is the name property of the calling script (e.g. 'ups_container'). Snoopers stores a checksum to scatter the messages a bit more on every start.
message is a string (text) to be implemented in Snoopers buffer. This message can be a simple string or a keyname pointing to descriptions.plist or missiontext.plist.
Both parameters are required. More infos about usage and returned values can be found in the Readme.
