Ship installation HOWTO

For a basic installation, create a ship script that follows this template, change the standard public variables as needed...

(function () {
    "use strict";

    /* Standard public variables for OXP scripts. */
    this.name = "yourshipscripthere.js";
    this.author = "Your Name";
    this.copyright = "© 2012 Your Name";
    this.license = "CC BY-NC-SA 3.0";
    this.description = "Ship script for your ship.";
    this.version = "1.0";

    /* Identifies this as a friendly to the 'Friend or Foe OXP'.
     * This is needed.
     */
    this.$fof_ship = true;

    /* Group name for your ship.
     * Optional/Not needed.
     */
    this.$fof_groupName = "yourgroupnamehere";

    /* Ship event callbacks. */

    /* Initialise the ship with 'Friend or Foe OXP' on birth. */
    this.shipSpawned = function () {
        /* No longer needed after setting up. */
        delete this.shipSpawned;

        /* Register this ship as a friendly. Delay it to allow the system to do it's stuff. */
        if (worldScripts["Friend or Foe"]) {
            this.$addFriendlyTimerReference = new Timer(this, function () {
                    worldScripts["Friend or Foe"].$addFriendly(this.ship);
                    delete this.$addFriendlyTimerReference;
                }, 2);
        }
    };
}).call(this);

Place the above code in the Scripts directory of your ship OXP. In shipdata.plist add a reference to the script. Rememeber to save the above code with a .js extension.

This OXP does not work for ships with the SCAN_CLASS of police due to hard-coded bounty increments in the Oolite executable. Thargoids and tharglets are also ignored.
