Overview

Mr Gimlet.png

Please note:   The calculations will change for v1.7.1, resulting in more precise and higher values and faster processing time. The documentation reflects the current status of changes. By the time of writing only 1 OXP is affected (Vector). The values below are subject to change.


This is the main class for the OXPStrength with its members and part of the Cabal_Common_Library.

It is a helper tool specially for mission OXPs to check the environment and helps to determine the players strength. The script is meant for OXP developers only.

The underlaying API calculates a checksum (coef) for entities. This checksum can be gathered by scripts for specific entities (Player and NPCs). Factors are:

  • Accuracy (v1.7.1)
  • Distance to the hotspots (MainStation,WP and lanes WP,WS,PS)
  • Equipment
  • Escorts / Defense ships
  • Laser
  • Mass (v1.7.1)
  • MaxEnergy
  • MaxPitch (v1.7.1)
  • MaxRoll (v1.7.1)
  • MaxSpeed
  • MaxThrust
  • Missiles
  • PrimaryRole
  • ShieldRechargeRates
  • Subent laser
  • Turrets

Functions

All profiled times are only for gathering infos for a fully equipped player ship.

checkPower()

worldScripts.Cabal_Common_OXPStrength.checkOXPStrength.checkPower( entity, logging, coef, location );
Profiler
Native 0.001295s
Extension 0.000488s
JS 0.000807s

Checks entities and returns the gathered coefficient. This is the main entry point for OXPs.

For NPCs the standard range is <500, but OXP entities can have a lot higher value based on their settings. A standard Cobra MkIII has a value of ~100 in the beginning and gets up to >500 if fully equipped with standard weaponry, missiles and other standard equipment. The Boa Class Cruiser has even a bit more.

Parameters:

entity
Entity. If specified only this entity will be checked, otherwise all entities in the system (except the player).
Optional.
logging
Boolean. If true a verbose list will be logged to Latest.log. This is useful while writing OXPs.
Optional.
coef
Number. If specified the minimum threshold for returned coef. Unused if entity is specified.
Optional. Default 400.
location
Number - Bitmask. If used distance calculations are based on set bits.
Optional. Default 7.
Values:
  • 1 - Main Station, default
  • 2 - Witchpoint, default
  • 4 - Lane W->P, default
  • 8 - Lane P->S
  • 16 - Lane W->S

Returns:

coef
Number. Calculated coefficient.
If entity was specified the value for this specific entity, otherwise the highest value in the system.


checkEQs()

worldScripts.Cabal_Common_OXPStrength.checkOXPStrength.checkEQs( entity );
Profiler
Native 0.000423s
Extension 0.000032s
JS 0.000083s

Returns weighted sum of installed equipment.

Paramerters:

entity
Entity.

Returns:

value
Number. Summed value for all installed equipment.
Every equipment adds based on tokens
  • 35 - naval, military, jammer, laser
  • 30 - energy, shield, boost, cloak
  • 25 - turret, missile, mine
  • 20 - hide, eeu, rack
  • 10 - ecm, target


checkMissiles()

worldScripts.Cabal_Common_OXPStrength.checkOXPStrength.checkMissiles( entity );
Profiler
Native 0.000168s
Extension 0.000064s
JS 0.000124s

Returns weighted sum of pylon mounted weapons.

Parameters:

entity
Entity.

Returns:

value
Number. Summed value for all mounted pylons.
Every pylon mounted missile or mine adds based on tokens
  • 5 - naval, boost, military, cascade
  • 4 - harpoon, intercept, nuke, law, frag, bomb
  • 3 - mine, stun, override, jammer, drone, guard, field
  • 2 - hard, ecm, rack, launcher, ams
  • 1 - otherwise


checkSpaceLane()

worldScripts.Cabal_Common_OXPStrength.checkOXPStrength.checkSpaceLane( entity, location );
Profiler
Native 0.000550s
Extension 0.000260s
JS 0.000545s

Returns array with distances to the main station, witchpoint and lanes (witchpoint->planet, planet->sun, witchpoint->sun).

Parameters:

entity
Entity.
location
Number.
Optional.

Returns:

array
Array with the format [ID,distMS,distWP,distLWP,distLPS,distLWS]. Distances >50000 will be -1.
ID is
  • -2 - Nova system
  • -1 - Interstellar space
  • 0 - standard system
  • 1 - interstellar space, entities close to [0,0,0]
  • 2 - standard system, entities close to checked locations

checkWeapons()

worldScripts.Cabal_Common_OXPStrength.checkOXPStrength.checkWeapons(entity);
Profiler
Native 0.000176s
Extension 0.000067s
JS 0.000152s

Returns array with values for weapons in standard weapon slots (forward, aft, port, starboard).

Parameters:

entity
Entity.

Returns:

array
Array with the format [number of slots, sum, typestring]. typestring is concatenated string of sum (e.g. "5311").
sum is the sum of all weapons
  • 1 - Pulse Laser
  • 3 - Beam Laser
  • 4 - Mining Laser, Twin Plasma Cannon
  • 5 - Military Laser
  • 8 - Thargoid Laser


checkSubWeapons()

worldScripts.Cabal_Common_OXPStrength.checkOXPStrength.checkSubWeapons( entity );
Profiler
Native 0.000180s
Extension 0.000077s
JS 0.000132s

Returns array with values for weapons in subEntites.

Parameters:

entity
Entity.

Returns:

array
Array with the format [Number of Turrets, Number of slots, sum, typestring]. typestring is concatenated string of sum, but exclusive turrets (e.g. "1111").


Properties

CCL_OXPStrength

The script can set a property to be used for strong entities.

worldScripts.Cabal_Common_OXPStrength.CCL_OXPStrength = 5;

Main purpose is to prevent the spawning by the populator. OXPs can use it in condition scripts. Default is 9.

Suggested classes:

  • 1 = coef < 300
  • 2 = coef < 400 - This is the default threshold for entities if logging is used.
  • 3 = coef < 600
  • 4 = coef < 800
  • 5 = coef < 1000
  • 6 = coef < 1500
  • 7 = coef < 3000
  • 8 = coef < 5000
  • 9 = otherwise, default setting for CCL_OXPStrength.


scriptInfo

ccl_missionShip

Missionships can also use a script_info key to indicate that this entity has to be handled with care by other scripts.

script_info = {ccl_missionShip = true;}


Table of Player Ships

A short overview about the values for native Oolite player-ships if fully equipped. OXP equipment and weaponry may add to the values and changed native ships (like in replacement sets) may change these values as well. The table is meant as rough orientation if OXPs want to base decisions on players strength.
