Install Cloaking Device

[JB2005]

Hi, long time no see!

For those who don't remember me I was a little bit active on these boards up to about 2013. I recently re-installed BC and started playing about with a few ideas I've had. I'd like to present something I'm quite proud of:

This is a small script which adds a cloaking device to any player ship (which doesn't already have one - if you have one, it will crash the game!)

It's rather simple and hopefully elegant. It loads a second hardpoint script over the top of the existing hardpoint, to add the new components and is made up of two scripts, as follows:

Script 1:

Code: [Select]


import App
import MissionLib
import Bridge.BridgeUtils
import Lib.Ambiguity
import QuickBattle.QuickBattle

pBridge = App.g_kSetManager.GetSet('bridge')
BridgeType = App.BridgeSet_Cast(pBridge).GetConfig()
g_pBrex = App.CharacterClass_GetObject(pBridge, 'Engineer')
pBrexMenu = Bridge.BridgeUtils.GetBridgeMenu('Engineer')
GOTO_ENGINEERING = App.Mission_GetNextEventType()

pGame = App.Game_GetCurrentGame()

pPlayer = pGame.GetPlayer()

def init():

        # Create the Button (Bit of an elongated way of doing it, but I'm a sucker for nostalgia!

        if (pBrexMenu != None):
            event = Lib.Ambiguity.getEvent(GOTO_ENGINEERING)
            g_pBrex.AddPythonFuncHandlerForInstance(event, __name__ + ".AddCloakingDevice")
            pButton = QuickBattle.QuickBattle.CreateBridgeMenuButton(App.TGString('Install Cloaking Device'), event, 0, g_pBrex)

        #BCS:TNG Solved this issue a long time ago with The Beginning. This is my own solution, like theirs it adds the button below Brex's Menu
            pBrexMenu.AddChild(pButton)

def AddCloakingDevice(pObject,pEvent):

        #Loads our new Hardpoint on top of the existing hardpoint - use once only!

        pPropertySet = pPlayer.GetPropertySet()
        mod = __import__('Custom.QBautostart.CloakingDevice')
        mod.LoadPropertySet(pPropertySet)

        pPlayer.SetupProperties()

        #Reload the Player Ship - fully integrates the new component!

        pGame.SetPlayer(pPlayer)



Script 2: (The New Hardpoint)

Code: [Select]


import App
import GlobalPropertyTemplates

#################################################
CloakingDevice = App.CloakingSubsystemProperty_Create("Cloaking Device")

CloakingDevice.SetMaxCondition(3000.000000)
CloakingDevice.SetCritical(0)
CloakingDevice.SetTargetable(1)
CloakingDevice.SetPrimary(1)
CloakingDevice.SetPosition(0.000000, -2.947170, 1.100000)
CloakingDevice.SetPosition2D(64.000000, 92.000000)
CloakingDevice.SetRepairComplexity(7.000000)
CloakingDevice.SetDisabledPercentage(0.750000)
CloakingDevice.SetRadius(0.550000)
CloakingDevice.SetNormalPowerPerSecond(1000.000000)
CloakingDevice.SetCloakStrength(100.000000)
App.g_kModelPropertyManager.RegisterLocalTemplate(CloakingDevice)
################################################

def LoadPropertySet(pObj):

        prop = App.g_kModelPropertyManager.FindByName("Cloaking Device", App.TGModelPropertyManager.LOCAL_TEMPLATES)
        if (prop != None):
                pObj.AddToSet("Scene Root", prop)



I'm conscious that last time I just left suddenly (change in circumstances etc. etc.) and I don't want the community to miss out again - so please feel free to use / adapt this to your hearts content (just give credit!) I'm currently planning a small script which will simulate a commando raid on an enemy ship to 'steal' a cloaking device for your own - watch this space!

[Morgan]

Very cool concept!  I don't see in your description where one would install these things, though.  Does script 1 go into the autoload folder and script 2 into the hardpoints folder for example?

[JB2005]

Sorry should have made that clear! Both go in QBautostart (simple reason being the file path was at the top of Script 1 when I was writing it!

I've updated the Code a little bit and removed 'Ambiguity.py' as a requirement.

[Tethys]

I am particularly interested in your Commando Team; I can think of many things to steal from enemy ships in addition to a cloaking device ;)

Do you plan to add a chance for failure/success to the script?

I would recommend some kind of subsystem installation complexity as well per race, if stealing as Borg the installation complexity would be minimal (obviously) with a high chance of theft success, if stealing as Ferengi (because we can't all be a Pakled) installation complexity would be high with a low chance of success. This would be your discretion sir of course, but if you do release updated codes... I will inevitably use and modify them extensively.

Also, welcome back. I don't think we ever met.

[JB2005]

Thanks!

Commando Team would be a bit of a 'text based adventure' I think.

I'm envisaging a little GUI which opens with Saffi's Console and updates you to the status "Away Team have reached Engineering...etc"

Just a bit of a Sideline, I trialled this with Sovvie's Slipstream Framework, works like a Gem (ignore "Add Torpedo - I forgot to rename the button!")

[FekLeyr Targ]

A belated welcome back. It's good to see you again.

All of this looks/sounds great.
Perhabs the commando team could be a fitting extension to the life support feature of DS9FX.

[Tethys]

I have been thinking, does this apply to warp cores? Instead of how Core Eject automatically reinstalls the warp core when tractor beam hits, I think I may change this behavior and require engineering to reinstall the core. This only makes sense, and I could then add a random number timer + static timer to emulate the reinstallation process.

[Mario]

A belated welcome back. It's good to see you again.

I was thinking the same thing .

[JimmyB76]

heya JB!
we have awesome initials, yeah? 
cool script you got there! 

[JB2005]

Thanks Jimmy! (For both!)

Warp Cores are a good one - it's not shown in any of the videos I've made, but I have a little script running which checks if the Warp Core has been damaged/ejected and if it has turns off the ship's lights.

I'm also working on a Side-Project which is rebuild destroyed systems (ironically rebuilding the scripts from scratch, as the ones i was working on 5 years ago died with a previous laptop!) and a lot of that code would easily adapt to reinstalling a Warp Core.

The DS9FX Crew would be something I'd love to integrate into this - but it will be a long way down the road. So far I've got a GUI working and a bit of a text window going - it scans an ship, reports the name and whether it has a cloaking device - bit of a way to get yet!

[Rob Archer]

Warp cores might be a bit troublesome as the Engineering UI is dependant on the primary power generator.

Rebuilding destroyed systems takes me back a bit

[JB2005]

Yeah - to clarify, there's no issue with rebuilding the Warp Core after it's been ejected (since from the perspective of the game it's the same subsystem)

If you try to add another system which is already on the Hardpoint (Cloaking Device, Torpedo System are the two I've tried so far) you get a fatal error and the game crashes!

I had a working prototype for a Rebuild Destroyed Systems (a few years after the New Frontier version - and I'm showing my age there!) but unfortunately it was on an old Laptop which subsequently fried! I'd like to recreate it though:

[Rob Archer]

Yeah I still have the old scripts lying around somewhere, it's a relatively straight forward script if I remember. I think at one point I had auxiliary power systems tied into the existing power system. As I wanted to do fusion reactors as warp backups, again can't remember how I implemented it

[Tethys]

Hey JB, so I added on to the Cloaking.py you initially created, and added some away team functions that you may be able to apply to you Away Mission mod GUI. What the code does is checks for a target, and if it has a target it checks if the target is close enough for transport, if it is then it checks for offline shields (right now for easy testing is set up for FriendliesGroup and bypasses target shields). After these things are checked and true, the Infiltration Team beams over to steal Blueprint/Data (right now only checks for cloaking device). The team has 30 seconds to download the data. Eventually I want to add a chance for data download failure or away team capture, both of which would end with the same result; no Data. After 30 seconds it checks the Target for cloaking device presence and if present, it adds the Data to the queue. Clicking the Data there is a 5 second delay as the Data arrives to Engineering Fabrications submenu (and it does populate the menu, but I am having trouble getting the ResizeToContents feature to work here, so you have to click the menu a few times for it to show up). Shortly after there is a transporter sound and your button becomes enabled again. Several check are included throughout to make sure you dont get Cloak Data if you already have a cloak, or if there is no cloak data available. Will post the code in a following post.

Additionally, if we're using:

        # pShip = pGame.GetPlayer()
        # pGame.SetPlayer(pShip)

then we need to import all current shield hull parent and child systems globally and reload them after using SetPlayer. Otherwise, we unrealistically get free shield recharge and hull fix. Not good for linear gameplay

Code: [Select]

## Install Cloak
##
## By JB2005 & Tethys
##
## v0.2
##
## Change Log:
##
##         - Replaced Button Script (QBautostart must be installed for this script to work, Ambiguity relies on QBReplacement being installed!)
##         - Added a Check:
##                 - If a Cloaking Device is installed, the button fails and hides itself
##                 - When the Player Ship Changes, it checks if it has a cloaking device and hides / reveals the button
##                 - Added some comments to show what we've done (for the benefit of uploading this file to BCC!
##
## v0.2.1
##
## Change Log:
##         - Changed PrependChild to AddChild (Moves to the Bottom of Brex's Screen)
##         - Added Countdown Timer (def Countdown1 + def Countdown2) - each is called after 1 second and drops 1 second from a global property.
##           Once pCounter reaches 0, it adds a Cloaking Device!
## v0.2.2
##
## Change Log:
##         - Changed pCounter from 10 (seconds) to a multiplied value for installation time based upon subsystem max condition and repair complexity.
##         - Moved def AddWarpCore to keep the file organized. (It's going to get a lot longer before its finished)
## v0.2.3
##
## Change Log:
##         - Added imports for Tactical menu so we can get our Infiltration Team coded, so we can steal subsystems
##         - Added some defs for the Infiltration Team
## ToDo:
##         * Add imports for subsystems
##         * Link GetMaxCondition and GetRepairComplexity to their own descriptors
##         * Rewrite pCounter again with above imports
##         * Change name of pCounter to pCloakCounter as we will probably be adding more unique globals for p(Subsystem)Counter for each subsystem
##         * Begin writing additional defs for additional subsystems to install
##         * Change (pTargetattr.GetShields().GetCurShields(App.ShieldClass.FRONT_SHIELDS) < 800000): back to < 800
##         * Change (pMission.GetFriendlyGroup().IsNameInGroup(pTarget.GetName())): back to #GetEnemyGroup

Well done.
Have you by any chance watched "The Enterprise Incident" recently? I had to think of that episode when I saw your video. ;)

[Tethys]

Yes I remember that episode.

Updated code, still alpha, code untested

Code: [Select]

## Install Cloak
##
## By JB2005 & Tethys
##
## v0.2
##
## Change Log:
##
##         - Replaced Button Script (QBautostart must be installed for this script to work, Ambiguity relies on QBReplacement being installed!)
##         - Added a Check:
##                 - If a Cloaking Device is installed, the button fails and hides itself
##                 - When the Player Ship Changes, it checks if it has a cloaking device and hides / reveals the button
##                 - Added some comments to show what we've done (for the benefit of uploading this file to BCC!
##
## v0.2.1
##
## Change Log:
##         - Changed PrependChild to AddChild (Moves to the Bottom of Brex's Screen)
##         - Added Countdown Timer (def Countdown1 + def Countdown2) - each is called after 1 second and drops 1 second from a global property.
##           Once pCounter reaches 0, it adds a Cloaking Device!
## v0.2.2
##
## Change Log:
##         - Changed pCounter from 10 (seconds) to a multiplied value for installation time based upon subsystem max condition and repair complexity.
##         - Moved def AddWarpCore to keep the file organized. (It's going to get a lot longer before its finished)
## v0.2.3
##
## Change Log:
##         - Added imports for Tactical menu so we can get our Infiltration Team coded, so we can steal subsystems
##         - Added some defs for the Infiltration Team
##         - pCounter is now based on the MaxCondition and RepairComplexity of the ship from which it was stolen
##         - Removed (def Countdown2) and other duplicate counters and adjusted the calls accordingly (changed some names for easier searching);
##           Only one Countdown def is needed to loop back to itself until *Counter = 0
##         -
##         -
##         -
## ToDo:
##         * Add imports for subsystems
##         * Link GetMaxCondition and GetRepairComplexity to their own descriptors
##         * Rewrite pCounter again with above imports
##         * Change name of pCounter to pCloakCounter as we will probably be adding more unique globals for p(Subsystem)Counter for each subsystem
##         * Begin writing additional defs for additional subsystems to install
##         * Change (pTargetattr.GetShields().GetCurShields(App.ShieldClass.FRONT_SHIELDS) < 800000): back to < 800
##         * Change (pMission.GetFriendlyGroup().IsNameInGroup(pTarget.GetName())): back to #GetEnemyGroup
