Revision as of 04:12, 2 December 2012

v2.2 (2012-12-02)

  • Wrong variable in the buoy script.
  • Corrected a logic check in the asteroid script.
  • Optimized the cleanup code in jaguar_company_attackers.js
  • Fewer boulders.

v2.1 (2012-12-02)

  • Thargoids and tharglets always returns true in $isHostile check.
  • There is a safe zone of 30km around the base.
    • NB: The safe zone does not extend to known attackers.
  • Took out some ship script event handlers and AI sendScriptMessage functions from the base, buoy, miner and tug ship scripts that is inserted by $addFriendly.
  • Fixed colour bug with the tracker. Didn't start off red if the target was behind the player.
  • Fixed name error for $performJaguarCompanyAttackTarget in $addFriendly.
  • Fixed sun check error if no sun exists.

v2.0 (2012-11-30)

  • First release out of WIP.
  • Moved route code fully into the main worldscript.
  • New worldscript for attackers code. Remember attackers. Even players who jump system.
    • Friend or Foe checks all ships in scanner range.
    • The first few shots are ignored as "friendly fire". Reputation can be lost!
    • You can remove the hostile mark by going to a new galaxy. This will also remove your reputation.
  • Welcome screen on docking.
  • Check for player helping. Thanks to Wildeblood for pointing out the then invisible world script event 'shipAttackedOther'.
    • There's a 10% chance of being seen in the heat of battle. A kill is always seen and rewarded highly.
    • If the player has enough reputation in combat then the communications buoy will transmit a beacon code of 'J' for the player to follow on the ASC. Wait a couple of minutes before checking, the tug pushing the communications buoy out has to reach the drop off point before the beacon activates.
    • The market for the base will change if the player has enough reputation.
  • The communications buoy will slowly rotate to point towards the patrol ships on release from the tug.
  • Black Box Tracker points to the nearest patrol ship.
    • Uses new visual effects code for Oolite v1.77 and newer, otherwise a simple invisible object hanging above the closest patrol ship that can be tracked with the Advanced Space Compass.
    • Tracker deactivates if the player is close to the patrol ships.
  • If Jaguar Company is forced out of interstellar space, they will all use 1 witchpoint exit even though they are all independent entities and not escorts or part of a group.
  • Position and name of the base is now fixed. Uses 'system.scrambledPseudoRandomNumber(salt)'.
    • Conjunction of the witchpoint, planet and sun is checked for so the base doesn't end up in the middle of the planet.

v1.8 (2012-08-09)

  • Use performFlyToRangeFromDestination rather than performFlee in the MOVE_AWAY state of patrol AI.
  • Patrol ships launch from base on startup.
  • Patrol ships dock after returning to base.
  • New AI and script for the base.
  • Added turrets to the base.
  • Stopped the rotation of the base.
    • Found out stations stop rotating when attacking and don't start rotating after.
  • Commodity pricing.
  • withinStationAegis uniform binding is actually a boolean, not a float as the wiki stated.
    • gave this 'OpenGL error: "invalid operation" (0x502) ...' in the test log.

v1.7 (2010-07-21)

  • Simplified the intercept AI.
  • Heavily commented the scripts and AIs.
  • Stray comma in pirate-victim-roles.plist removed.
  • Used Obj2DatTexNorm.py on the models and preserved the material names.
  • Modified the shipdata to use the material names.
  • Relaxed distance code to cope with battalion sized groups. (64 ships tested)

v1.6.2 (2012-07-14)

  • Bug fix for the ship script.
  • Bug fix to the waypoint AI. Never exited the stock AI.
  • Cascade Weapon detection actually works for pre v1.77
  • Took the opportunity to clean up some files and re-do the textures.

v1.6 (2012-07-12)

  • There is now no concept of leaders and wingmen. All ships keep in a group.
  • Complete rewrite of the AI to reflect the above.

  • Vertex and fragment shaders for the base.
  • Docking bay looks like a rippling pool.

  • Be more mercenary when in intercept mode.
  • Get back into formation after fighting.
  • Port and starboard flashers.
  • Moved the naming scheme into the ship script.
  • New proto base. Doesn't spawn yet.

v1.3.1 (2012-06-21)

  • Simplified the AI for the leader.
  • Reduced accuracy to 7.5
  • Added in "randomshipnames" = no, into script_info of ship data.
  • Uses OXPConfig to change logging levels. Set 'displayAll' in OXPConfig to show this OXP.

v1.3 (2012-06-18)

  • Fixed the decal rotation.
  • Added lots of new ship names. Altered one for profanity reasons.
  • Tweaked all the AI's.
