@HookDev

Is it possible to, instead of money, for the hook to addcargo as different items?

Such as for every X of Y you bring, you get A ammount of B. For example bringing something to, say, Core (More than, say, 3000 units at a time) would result in being given one or two Nomad BS remains.
Or perhaps bringing X of seven set commodities of metalic nature can result in being given 1 MkVIII armor upgrade at a production facility.

Why not make a leaderboard for deliveries with trade events, logging the names of ships who make the deliveries? The top 3 could get an extra credit reward or something.

@Dev What if the event is over and you still have your original cargo in hold?

Passengers die of starvation, food rations rot, fluorine... well, it's fluorine... Why, what did you think?


RE: Event System Part 1 - Oldum - 12-07-2015

the system is already busted, I sold the passengers on Cambridge and was told this : http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu23/oldum/screen88_zpsp0fj3yco.png

You don't look like the dev who wrote this, however if the event has ended and you are still logged to the event (like he mentioned you would, after you have logged out due to RL duty and log back in) there is a way to totally abuse the event system.

Absolutely correct but he also stated that

Quote:but something comes up in RL and you need to leave. Well fear not! As long as you still have the passengers from the original destination, when you return you will be informed you are still able to complete the event:

So does it mean, once it reaches max capacity it will only count up to that, let's say I sell 4920 cargo and the event only has space left for 3000 - do I get the full 4920 or only 3000 as it reaches max capacity by then?


RE: Event System Part 1 - Thyrzul - 12-07-2015

The system looks like it's setting a flag on your ship once you bought the correct commodity from the correct base with the correct ID, basically flagging you as eligible for bonus. Now when you log back in it fires a msg about your status. Unless it either ignores whether the limit has been reached or not or just totally overwrites that, there should be a check for eligibility based on event status. HookDev knows only what he coded into the plugin, but we'll see anyways once one of the events is done.
