[Leanson]

wow this is really handy. Auto complete will save alot of time and effort.

 

[Saber]

One I think could be handy in the future would be something like a /control which would allow the selected entity to be entered (assuming it isn't currently controlled) from any distance as long as it's selected. That way admin's would be able to jump directly into a core without having to travel a long distance or destroy an entity. It would also allow them to enter a ship which is glitching out and move it, without deleting it.

 

[Doomsider]

Yes, I agree that would be handy. It would also be nice to have a command that would take you to a ship by name and put you in control of it.

 

[25hz]

So this is just a copy/paste from the old commands, but it doesn't explain things.

For example, "(despawn_sector) - WARNING: this will delete the entites of a sector that start with the given pattern from the database! [ShipNameStart(String), Mode(used/unused/all)(String), ShipOnly(Boolean), X(Integer), Y(Integer), Z(Integer)]
/despawn_sector MOB_ unused true 2 2 2"

Despawn is a powerful and dangerous command. The explanation and example provided, neither explains nor gives an example.
What is the mode and what do the options mean? No explanation.
What does "boolean" mean?? If there are options, what are they and what do they mean?

This: BlockName(String), meaningless. If it's talking about the "block ID", then it needs to say "block ID". At best, copying code chunks with no explanation isn't informative or helpful, it's just laziness.

Something like this "[ShipNameStart(String), Mode(used/unused/all)(String), ShipOnly(Boolean), X(Integer), Y(Integer), Z(Integer)]" is fine for people who write code, but it is meaningless gibberish to people who don't code. Some commands are pretty much straight forward while others are not clear at all. Is there any instruction that explains how to use entity names that have spaces in them instead of dashes or underlines? No.

Do you want the game to cater to coders and elitists, or gamers willing to pay for a game?

 

[NeonSturm]

(give_logbook) - Gives player logbook [PlayerName(String)]
/give_logbook schema

(give_recipe) - Gives player recipe [PlayerName(String), TypeOutput(Integer)]
/give_recipe schema 1

I didn't knew about these. Especially the logbook one is nice

 

[Doomsider]

25z - If there are spaces in the ship name you would probably use quotes. The purpose of this post was just to carry over the information from the previous forum not to make it so everyone could understand these commands. Some of these commands are pretty much defunct at this point such as /repair_sector 2 3 4. We will be putting together a better guide to these commands in the future. I would like to see this guide included with the launcher.

 

[Mowa2]

Just a heads up, the /teleport_to command has changed(it now teleports the entity you have selected with f, and completely ingores the name you put in)

Also /kill_character crashes the server now so i would not recommend using that

 

[Choiced]

One I think could be handy in the future would be something like a /control which would allow the selected entity to be entered

Select the ship and hit Tab + F8. You can take control of any ship, including pirates, that isn't controlled by a player. Obviously, you have to be an admin.

 

[Bobby Bighoof]

This post needs to be updated

 

[Jananton]

I didn't knew about these. Especially the logbook one is nice

Hmm, /give_logbook <usedname> "ERROR: Unknown command". Oh well, it probably isn't a logbook one can make notes in anyhow.

Greets,

Jan

 

[Lukwan]

Is there a print-friendly list of these commands somewhere?. I want to edit my own 'Hot List' of regularly used commands.
Thanks.

 

[Erth Paradine]

I'm not having much luck figuring out how to work with spaces in UIDs. I've tried just spaces, substituting spaces with underscores, quoting the string, brackets, and escaping combinations thereof...nothing seems to work. Is there any way to reference UID strings with spaces in them?

 

[SmilingDemon]

enclosing them in " " isnt working either ?

 

[StarWars1981]

Wow, some massive amounts of necro going on here.
Ignore the spaces, Erth Paradine, ignore them completely and make it one block word.

 

[Erth Paradine]

enclosing them in " " isnt working either ?

Upon another run at this, enclosing JUST the string in escaped quotes does seem to work:
/change_sector_for_uid \"ENTITY_SHIP_HRMT Starter Scrapper_1463358732145\" 5 5 5
RETURN: [SERVER, [ADMIN COMMAND] [SUCCESS] changed sector for ENTITY_SHIP_HRMT Starter Scrapper_1463358732145 to (5, 5, 5), 0]
RETURN: [SERVER, END; Admin command execution ended, 0]
