[Index] X4: Foundations Tools, Tutorials and Resources

[alexringess]

Sorry if this mod was suggested yet, I didn't read all the thread, but I think this one worth to be on the submission list because it's the very first X: Rebirth ship added on X4: Foundations after all.

I would like to promote my Visual XML Editor as a tool for supporting modding in X-Rebirth.

It is Open Source via github, written in C# (Microsoft .NET 4.5), and supports plug-ins. Will formally document the plug-in API at some point but the source code - with an example plug-in is available on github.

I am going to be looking at writing some simple X4 related utility plugins for plan import export management at some point.

3. The ? maps the value to binary, i.e. 0 or 1. if it does not exists or if it does, respectively.

4. The @ maps the value to a Boolean, i.e. false or true, if it does not exists or if it does, respectively.

This has been bugging me, as I don't think this is accurate. 0 or 1 is the script's version of boolean. ? returns 1 if the value exists (is not null), and 0 if it is null. @ returns 0 if the value is null, 0 if the value exists and evaluates to false, and 1 if the value both exists and evaluates to true.

Code: Select all

set $var = null
$var? == 0
@$var == 0

set $var = false
$var? == 1
@$var == 0

set $var = true
$var? == 1
@$var == 1

set $var = ware.energycells
$var? == 1
@$var == 1

my Infos are different from that. but can't currently confirm in-game.

? is for checking whether a variable is set at all (initialized), an will return true if it is (even if it's value is null), and false if not (either by being not set yet or by using remove_value )

@ is for suppressing error in case the following property chain is invalid or the variable is not set. Both cases still evaluate to null, but would also write an error to the log without the @. in any other case it results in the value the expression evaluates to.

Can we add a note next to link "Dynamic Debug Logs":
1. that it links to instructions on how to create a batch file?
and
2. that a simpler method is to add launch options in Steam or to create a Shortcut to the game with the options: "-debug all -logfile debug.log"

If someone wants the luxury of Visual Studio on Linux there is a similar IDE.
The IDE is commercial but has a free open source community edition (no registration required).

IntelliJ IDEA

It's made for Java/Android etc, but it handles XML just like VS including all the bells and whistles.
