Right, yeah. If you do this for particle effects it can be helpful. Basically, binding a texture has a performance cost - higher for larger textures, too. So if you *can* bind a texture atlas before doing all your drawing, it can help. It helps more if you do a lot of drawing, like for a particle effect. I wouldn't worry about it too much unless you're really drawing a lot of things.

Well, so when the "binding the texture" will happen? I mean, actually starsector would bind all the textures while loading right?

How do I actually use a Janino-compiled script from precompiled code? As in, this crashes the game on start:

(Context of what I'm trying to do. Not sure if this problem surfaced in Starsector 0.95a, and don't feel like reinstalling to find out)

UPDATE: Applied a hammer to this screw.

Spoiler

Code: java

	public static void generateSystemsJanino() {
		List<String> inputList = new ArrayList<>();

How do I actually use a Janino-compiled script from precompiled code? As in, this crashes the game on start:

Hmm - I mean, this sounds like a it's probably an IDE configuration issue? I'm not seeing why it wouldn't work if the resulting class file properly refers to the Janino-compiled class (i.e. right package etc). As long as it's not called before that class is compiled. That said, this doesn't happen in vanilla, so maybe there's a larger issue here that I'm just not seeing, perhaps due to how the classloaders are hooked up.

I cannot for the life of me find the thread where it was mentioned and I don't see it in the patch notes, but - did the "Don't ever target fighters" weapon hint make it into the release?

If so, what is the hint?

(Or am I just crazy and dreamed that was going to be a thing?)

*EDIT*

Ah I finally found the thread! Looking at the discussion again I think maybe I was misunderstanding? I was going off of:

Fair enough, yeah.

Edit: added "NO_TURN_RATE_BOOST_WHEN_IDLE" weapon hint.

That plus a ignore fighters tag? Whooooo this is great, thanks a lot. Combined with a smarter autofire decision AI, it should help a LOT when dealing with ships supported by fighters.

So maybe I saw this and thought both were added to the dev version when in actuality only the specifically mentioned one was?

[theDragn]

Is the code that handles integrating an AI core officer obfuscated? I've poked around the api source and haven't managed to stumble into it.

[SafariJohn]

These seem relevant:

com.fs.starfarer.api.campaign.AICoreOfficerPlugin

CampaignPlugin.pickAICoreOfficerPlugin()

[theDragn]

These seem relevant:

com.fs.starfarer.api.campaign.AICoreOfficerPlugin

CampaignPlugin.pickAICoreOfficerPlugin()

Those are used to generate the AI core officers- but I'm looking for the stuff that handles integrating an AI core officer into an automated ship (the option that uses a story point). Specifically, integrating an AI officer into a ship blocks command transferring- even if I redo the Automated Ship hullmod to not block command transfer.

Hi, can I make the character screen wider? I tried adding a skill after tier 5, but it went off screen there, and I don't know where to find the UI files or, for that matter, how the UI works.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Is there any API method (or way, period) to make PD not target a specific missile/fighter? I'm trying to make a shielded missile (it'll be pretty hackjob, I think) but one of the potential design concerns is PD getting confused and firing at it when it shouldn't.

[Warnoise]

Hi, is it possible to modify existing ships? For example adding built in mods, modifying op, armor, etc...

[Alex]

Yeah, that sounds right - sorry

See: Misc.isUnremovable(); setting that flag is what integrating the AI core does. But the core code that does it is not directly moddable, no.

There isn't, I don't think. But doesn't it give you a scrollbar? Or does that only work vertically if you add more aptitudes? I don't actually remember.

I don't believe so, no. Well, if you set its collision class to NONE, that might do it, but that'd have other effects, too.

Hi, is it possible to modify existing ships? For example adding built in mods, modifying op, armor, etc...

Yeah - you can edit the corresponding .ship file (for built-in mods) and the corresponding ship_data.csv row for editing their stats.

No worries thanks for clarifying!

Given a float representing % bonus XP from story point use (say, 0.5), how do I determine the bonus XP amount I should pass to MutableCharacterStatsAPI.addBonusXP?

(I'm doing a thing where player can spend one SP on an action and get X% bonus XP back, then if they cancel that action they get the other (100-X)% bonus XP as a refund)

[Alex]

Ah - let me add long getBonusXPForSpendingStoryPointBeforeSpendingIt() to MutableCharacterStatsAPI.

It's a bit involved; here's the actual method. It *should* be correct - I did a pretty good amount of testing on it. But it might not handle some edge case like, say, the bonus XP exceeding a single level's total XP.

Code

	public long getBonusXPForSpendingStoryPointBeforeSpendingIt() {
		LevelupPlugin plugin = ScriptStore.getPlugin(LevelupPlugin.class);
		int per = plugin.getStoryPointsPerLevel();
		
		
		// what we want to do is figure out exactly how much bonus XP is needed to gain 1 story point
		// if the bonus XP crosses over to the next level - so part of the bonus XP is based on the XP
		// for the current level, and part for the next.
		int levelWithBonusXP = 1;
		while (plugin.getXPForLevel(levelWithBonusXP + 1) <= xp + bonusXp * 2L) {
			levelWithBonusXP++;
			if (levelWithBonusXP >= plugin.getMaxLevel()) break;
		}
		
		if (levelWithBonusXP < plugin.getMaxLevel() - 1) {
			long currLevelStart = plugin.getXPForLevel(levelWithBonusXP);
			long currLevelEnd = plugin.getXPForLevel(levelWithBonusXP + 1);
			long nextLevelEnd = plugin.getXPForLevel(levelWithBonusXP + 2);
			
			currLevelEnd -= currLevelStart;
			nextLevelEnd -= currLevelStart;
			
			float fraction = (float)(xp + bonusXp * 2L - currLevelStart) / (float) currLevelEnd;
			float fractionPerPt = 1f / (float) per;
			float fractionAfter = fraction + fractionPerPt * 2f; // * 2 because it'll be gained alongside real XP
			
			float xpForThisLevel = Math.max(0f, Math.min(1f, fractionAfter) - fraction) * currLevelEnd;
			float xpForNextLevel = Math.max(0f, fractionAfter - 1f) * (nextLevelEnd - currLevelEnd);
			
			return (long)Math.round((xpForThisLevel + xpForNextLevel) * 0.5f); // * 0.5f to undo the earlier doubling
		}
		
		int level = this.level + 1;
		level = Math.min(level, plugin.getMaxLevel() + 1);
		long neededForPrevLevel = plugin.getXPForLevel(level - 1);
		long neededForSPLevel = plugin.getXPForLevel(level);

		return ((neededForSPLevel - neededForPrevLevel) / per);

[Warnoise]

So what if, for example, I want to modify the XIV variant of the onslaught only (not the regular one), for example I want to add a built in mode for the xiv variant only, how can I do that?

I checked the .ship files and I only found the base versions of said ships, I couldn't find the xiv variants in . ship files.
