@Spektor What does this do?: <event_param nonstop="0"></event_param>

EDIT: Do I need it for my event?

EDIT: Do I need it for my event?
When a ship enters a sector, that sector get's a flag - EVENT HAPPENED, so that if another ship(your friend's for example) enters the same sector right after you, another event will not happen.
Because when his ship enters the sector, a check is made - does this sector have a flag EVENT HAPPENED, if yes - no sector event is applied.

But if that event that was applied when your ship entered the sector, had nonstop="1", then that flag is not set on the sector, and when your friend's ship enters the same sector, can trigger another sector event there to be applied.

This flag is suposed to limit the amount of event's happening at nearly the same time.
The flag is dropped when that sector is unloaded from memory.
Sector is unloaded from memory when it has no players and no ships with AI = LEVEL_LOADER in it, for 2 minutes(this timeout is configured in the server.cfg file).
So the next time this sector is loaded, another event can happen in it.

I guess the easiest way to send me the footage would be to either post the stuff in this forum or you could share via google drive. (email is cheezybug98@gmail.com)
Ill record my own clips to fill in bits I need. Also if there's any specific list of things for me to mention, tell me.
I can start work on it on Wednesday.
Add me on skype(kcd.Spektor) so we can discuss this in more detail.
Anyone else can help with the trailer?
I'm asking because Perogie again asked, and dissapeared...

Reset my Microsoft account 3 times and made 2 new accounts and still can't get Skype working. Is there another way to do this? Also I stated I can begin using my editing software on Wednesday so I've been waiting till then. I feel cursed with technology but if you still want me to create it on Wednesday I still can.

Edit: 4 resets, 3 accounts, 2 hours wasted on skype.

Wow... They grow up so fast;

Yeah, I've been busy with some things in my life, but anyway, I'm back now.

We're putting together a trailer now? Woah!

Is there still anything I can do for the project, or has it all been squared away?

@Spektor I tested this and I didn't work, where did I go wrong? Am I testing it wrong?
Do you think you could make a guide on the wiki: How to create an event?

Code: Select all
