Hi,
I'm making a program for Halo PC, Phasor. Phasor does some stuff internally (hash rcon, more rcon commands etc) and does some other stuff externally, via scripts (Lua). I wanted to make an infection-style mod, but I wanted to let people customize it. That's where the script system comes in.
Phasor implements scripts either locally or globally. If a script based on the current map/gametype isn't found then a global one is loaded. The scripts have various exported functions that get called when certain events happen. The scripts can also call exposed Phasor functions. This is how I'm implementing Infection, it's a way of introducing the scripting interface.
Anyway, I'm posting here because I want ideas. What kind of things do you want to be able to do? Below are the functions that are done. Post ideas. Please.
Events (done):
[list]
[*]void OnScriptLoad(processid) - Called when the script is loaded. Process id is the parameter.
[*]void OnScriptUnload() - Called when the script is about to be unloaded.
[*]void OnNewGame(map) - Called when a new game is starting, the map name is passed.
[*]void OnGameEnd(type) - Called when a game "ends". Type specifies the event, 1 is the game just finished (still ingame F1 menu displayed), 2 is the post game, 3 is when quit shows up in post game.
[*]int OnTeamDecision(cur_team)- Called when a player is being assigned a team (as they join). cur_team is their current team and the return value is the actual team they are to join.
[*]void OnPlayerLeave(player, team) - Called when a player leaves.
[*]void OnPlayerKill(killer, victim) - Called when a player kills another player.
[*]bool OnTeamChange(relevant, player, team, dest_team) - Called when a player is changing teams. Relevant specifies whether or not the return value is considered. If relevant is 1 the return value is used to determine whether or not the player can change team.
[*]bool OnWeaponPickup(player) - Called when a player attempts to pickup a weapon. Return value determines whether or not they're allowed to.
[*]bool OnVehicleEntry(player) - Called when a player attempts to enter a vehicle. Return value determines whether or not they're allowed to.
[*]bool OnWeaponReload(player) - Called when a player attempts to reload. Return value determines whether or not they're allowed to.
[*]bool OnAmmoPickup(player) - Called when a player attempts to pickup ammo. Return value determines whether or not they're allowed to.
[*]bool OnGrenadePickup(player) - Called when a player attempts to pickup grenades. Return value determines whether or not they're allowed to.
[/list]
Planned:
[list]
[*]void OnPlayerSpawn(player) - Called when a player spawns, just after their object is assigned. You can change ammo and have it sync if done HERE.
[*]bool OnFallDamage(player) - Called when a player experiences fall damage. Return 0 to stop the fall damage.
[/list]
Exported functions that scripts can use:
[list]
[*]void hprintf(char* msg) - Writes text to the server console
[*]void changeteam(DWORD player) - Changes a player's team
[*]DWORD getteam(DWORD player) - Returns a player's current team.
[*]void setspeed(DWORD player, float speed) - Sets a player's speed (default is 1.0).
[*]void say(char* msg) - Sends a message to the server. (atm multibyte is passed and coverted into unicode, idk how to do unicode in Lua).
[*]void privatesay(DWORD player, char* msg) - Sends a server message to a specific player
[*]void registertimer(DWORD id, DWORD delay, DWORD userdata, char* callback) - Sets up a timer that calls the function 'callback' when the delay runs down. The callbacks return value is 0 or 1, 1 indicates the timer should repeat, 0 deletes the timer.
[*]char* getname(DWORD player) - Returns the multibyte representation of a player's name.
[*]char* gethash(DWORD player) - Returns a player's hashcode
[*]int getteamsize(DWORD team) - Returns the size of the specified team
[*]void svcmd(char* cmd) - Executes a server command
[/list]
Planned:
[list]
[*]void setdmgmodifier(DWORD weapon, float modifier)
[*]void sethealthmodifier(DWORD player, float modifier)
[*]DWORD getweapon(DWORD player, DWORD order)
[*]DWORD getcurrentweapon(DWORD player)
[/list] |

Maybe because some people, who aren't lazy, want to customize how the server runs. Just a thought.

Hmmm... I didn't totally understand the scripts themselves... but you sound like you know what you are doing so.. I'll leave this up to the leader.
I hate lag |

Eh, I've been wanting a server tool to help control the server for zombies when there are noobs, but that's up to Slimy to get it or not.

Random guy who made a zombie server scripting tool and is, from the sound of it, offering it to us by asking us what we want in it.

Oxide is a halo programmer, once in SS. ive known & used his products for a while now. also, show some respect for alot of the tools that we use (more so me on behalf of you) are designed & made by oxide |

respect oxide. is that really how halo is programmed? I get the booleans and voids and stuff because I know a tiny bit, but does the code really look like that?

no, hes using a diff system. lua in fact is most famously used with video games like Garry's Mod. but its also used heavily in many applications. |

Halo is programmed in C++ (like Phasor), the above code is some C++ function declarations. Well, tbh they're not really C++ declarations as I didn't include the argument types. Below is a C++ function.. Well more C as C++ is object oriented.
// This function gets a player's object data
LPBYTE GetObjectAddress(int mode, DWORD reqData)
{
// Make sure request data is valid
if (reqData == -1)
return 0;
WORD hi = (reqData >> 16) & 0xFFFF;
WORD lo = (reqData & 0xFFFF);
LPBYTE lpObjectList = (LPBYTE)*(DWORD*)UlongToPtr(0x744C18);
if (lo < (*(WORD*)(lpObjectList + 0x20)))
{
LPBYTE objPtr = (LPBYTE)ULongToPtr(*(DWORD*)(lpObjectList + 0x34) + (*(WORD*)(lpObjectList + 0x22) * lo));
if (!*(WORD*)objPtr)
return 0;
LPBYTE finalPtr = 0;
if (!hi)
finalPtr = objPtr;
else if (hi == *(WORD*)objPtr)
finalPtr = objPtr;
if (!finalPtr)
return 0;
if (mode < (1 << finalPtr[2]))
return (LPBYTE)*(DWORD*)UlongToPtr(finalPtr + 8);
}
return 0;
