[PoB] Triggering WPs by sum of damage

[darkwind]

Would be great if you could also create a new defensemode that lets all ships of a certain faction dock regardless of name tag, but not other factions.

it should be not a problem to make it.
pob plugin already has all necessary code parts in /baserep operation

a small problem can arise only if the difference for the code will be big between official and indie factions.
i get it that /baserep goes through IFF of player to base
I wonder if IFF for official and indie factions of the same group is the same one

I think they match each other, and if they don't, checking through 1.0 reputation will do the trick.
although with those dockings there is another important bug that needs to be fixed.

Well my opinion is that this should apply to all IFFs, making WP only a defense tool against sieges instead of disrupting player interactions!

...

I don't get how platforms help you much as a transport
- you can simply dock and keep trading, if the pirate lets you get to the base he already lost. Now the shields won't be up at all as they can't tigger them with a CD = good for transports that have docking as main defense.
WP only help combat classed ships avoid fights without docking and pvp deaths

I will clarify that shield is rised from CD and will remain being rised by CD after the change is applied.
this game mechanic is important to prevent smugglers docking when you are lawful
and transports docking when you are pirate.
I do not change it.

Both official and indie factions belong to the same IFF. The only difference they may have its IDs what is not equal to IFF

great. then comparing IFF of base and players will be enough for the new defense mod.
