Title: Interface for in-game stats ?
Post by: Askahain on August 07, 2014, 06:15:21 am

Hello,

i have a question about Diaspora (Freespace2).

I have build a "flight simulator" for BTRL a few years ago.

Pictures: http://www.larptech.de/index.php?S=viperbau (http://www.larptech.de/index.php?S=viperbau) , http://www.twelve-colonies.de/galerie_tc1/041%20dradis.html (http://www.twelve-colonies.de/galerie_tc1/041%20dradis.html) , http://www.twelve-colonies.de/galerie_tc1/045%20countdown.html (http://www.twelve-colonies.de/galerie_tc1/045%20countdown.html)

I like to add more instruments to the simulator. For example a ammo/missile counter, the actual speed, .. many things that the hud shows.

Is there a interface where i can get these values or a text file where these values a written every second ?
If not is it possible to implement a function like this ?

Whit kind regards

Askahain

It's pretty easy to write a lua script (http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Scripting.tbl) that can output that data.
