2) I'm not sure what "cut off" means in this context. You can check market.hasCondition(Conditions.HOSTILE_ACTIVITY) or something similar to see if it has the condition, or you could check its accessibility if you care about it in a more general sense.

im attempting to refer to what happens when you try to interact with a object on the map, and you cant because there is a hostile fleet nearby. it says something about there being 'a hostile fleet tracking your movement nearby' (or something like that), and talks about how you cant do anything well there is a hostile fleet right next to you.

also quick question because its bugging me, do you happen to know were the class/function 'TooltipMakerAPI.addSkillPanel(person,pad);' is implemented? i want to edit the code to work with admin skills, but am unable to find it anywhere in starsector core, for some reason.

and thank you for your responses. understanding a program can be hard sometimes and the answers i receive on this tread help a lot.

Re: nearby hostiles - ahh, I see! Generally that's checked in rules, using the HostileFleetNearbyAndAware command. If you wanted to check this in code, you could create a new instance of it and call its .execute() method. The problem is that it's not *guaranteed* that this is all that's checked for; a specific interaction may be checking for something else, and there's no general flag that's set for this state. So whatever you do would likely need to be on a case-by-case basis, checking what the rules do in that specific situation.

Re: TooltipMakerAPI.addSkillPanel(person,pad) - it's outside the API, in core vanilla code that's not (easily) mod-accessible, so you're kind of on your own there.

Is there any way to prevent hostile activity from counting a fleet towards its "Hostile Fleet Destroyed" counter? Certain things become easy to farm nearby player colonies and it breaks the system entirely.
So just looking for a way to blacklist a fleet from the system.

Is there a way to turn off certain combat messages completely (e.g. combat readiness warnings)?

You could try setting HostileActivityEventIntel.FP_PER_POINT to some very high value situationally (i.e. when the battle about to be reported is one you want to exclude). It'd still net at least one point, though. (Also: changes to the HA system will I *think* make this mostly moot in the .1 release?)

I don't think so, but you could turn off the sounds by setting their volume to zero in data/config/sounds.json.

If I want to disable d-mod removal from the Hull Restoration skill, I can just treat the .skill like a .json and remove these lines right? (level2, level4A, level4B)

Code

{
	"id":"hull_restoration",
	"governingAptitude":"industry",
	"compressHullmods":false,
	"scope":"FLEET",
	"effectGroups":[
		{
			"requiredSkillLevel":1,
			"effectBasedOnLevel":false,
			"effects":[
				{"type":"FLEET", "script":"com.fs.starfarer.api.impl.campaign.skills.HullRestoration$Level1"},
				// REMOVE {"type":"ALL_SHIPS_IN_FLEET", "script":"com.fs.starfarer.api.impl.campaign.skills.HullRestoration$Level2"},
				// REMOVE {"type":"FLEET", "script":"com.fs.starfarer.api.impl.campaign.skills.HullRestoration$Level4A"},
				// REMOVE {"type":"FLEET", "script":"com.fs.starfarer.api.impl.campaign.skills.HullRestoration$Level4B"},
				{"type":"ALL_SHIPS_IN_FLEET", "script":"com.fs.starfarer.api.impl.campaign.skills.HullRestoration$Level3"},
			]
		},
	],
}

When writing a save, does the game have anything that would serialize a variant with source REFIT as a STOCK variant?

Context: Been trying to confirm the origin of a bug where a ship, having been transferred from player fleet to an NPC fleet, loses its variant after save/load.
(The NPC fleet had fleet.setInflated(true); and fleet.setInflater(null); called after the fleet members were added to it; all the variants also had their sources set to REFIT and tagged as no_autofit)

Assuming those are the right effect levels in the skill's java class, that should work yes. (Note that Starsector uses '#' for JSON comments)

I'm sorry about the delayed response! Been plugging away at stuff and, in all honesty, just forgetting to check this thread often enough.

Ah, hmm, it will do that - if variant.getOriginalVariant() returns non-null, the game will set the ship to that when it deflates the fleet prior to saving. I think calling variant.setOriginalVariant(null) in addition to what you were doing should sort it out.

Edit: found the solution for my question so nvm.

[alaricdragon]

hello once again my fellow life forms. i have returned with another set of questions
1) is there any way to run code right after a player founds a market, like some type of 'market founded listener'?
2) how do i grey out options (so you cant click on them), like what happens with 'establish a colony' when in a system with no hyperspace accuses?
once more i thank all you kind people for answering all of my previous of my silly questions. its very kind of you all.

1 - Add a PlayerColonizationListener with Global.getSector().getListenerManager().addListener()

2 - OptionPanelAPI.setEnabled()

How can I let all ships naturally accelerate past the 600 speed limit?

How can I let all ships naturally accelerate past the 600 speed limit?

You can't, it's a hardcoded limit. Part of the reason it exists is for collision reliability etc; I'd imagine things start breaking down visibly at some point after that's exceeded.

There is a cool hull mod that creates mines using engine.spawnProjectile(). It passes in null for the weaponAPI parameter and creates a "mineLayer1" projectile. I wanted to change it to create a "sabot" projectile. However, that projectile has an OnHitEffect that has projectile.getWeapon().get.... which results in a null reference exception.
How can I pass an appropriate weaponAPI to spawnProjectile() so that any other script calling getWeapon on the projectile won't be null?

[Alex]

You can use CombatEngineAPI.createFakeWeapon(shipId, weaponId) to create a sabot (or whatever) weapon and use that.
