List of functions

AddAsteroid
Arguments	Returns	Example
int: system_id double: coord_x double: coord_y string: type - xml id of asteroid double: scale double: resQ - resouces modifier object: rotation object: rotationSpeed	int: identifier of created object	var id = generator.AddAsteroid(1,100,100,"Asteroid01",1, 0, {x:0,y:0,z:0}, {x:0,y:0,z:0});
Description
Adds asteroid with specified parameters into game world. Asteroid contents (extractable resources), asteroid's look and other parameters can be modified only in .xml file, which is specified in this function by parameter "type".

AddBase
Arguments	Returns	Example
int: system_id double: coord_x double: coord_y string: type - xml id of base string: name (optional) object: tags	int: identifier of created object	var id = generator.AddBase(1, 100, 100, "Base01", "Station Horizon", {class: "order"});
Description
Adds space station to game world.

AddItem
Arguments	Returns	Example
int: object_id string: item_xml_id int: quantity	object: quantity - quantity was actually added type - can be "item" or "resource"	var obj = generator.AddItem(1, "SomeItem", 5);
Description
Adds item to some object's inventory. In VoidExpanse not all objects do have inventory, so this function must be applied only to those, which have it, such as ships, space stations, containers.

AddContainer
Arguments	Returns	Example
int: system_id double: coord_x double: coord_y string: xml_type string: droplist (optional) object: tags	int: identifier of object created	var id = generator.AddContainer(1, 0, 0, "Container01", "DropList01");
Description
Adds a floating container to game world. By default container is empty. Also containers, which has no contents, are unstable (self-destroyed as soon as someone will look at it's contents), so it's better not to create empty containers. Content can be added with generator.AddItem function.

AddDecoration
Arguments	Returns	Example
int: system_id string: item_xml_id vector2: position double: depth vector2: rotation vector2: rotation_speed, double: scale	int: ID of created object	var id = generator.AddDecoration(1, "Decoration01", {x:0,y:0}, 100, {x:5, y:5}, {x:5, y:5}, 2);
Description
Adds a decoration to game world. Decoration is a non-interactive object, which is used as a... decoration.

AddJumpgate
Arguments	Returns	Example
int: system_id int: system_to double: coord_x double: coord_y double: angle string: xml_type (optional) object: tags	int: ID of created object	var id = generator.AddJumpgate(1, 2, 100, 100, 20, "Jumpgate01", {sometag: "sometag"});
Description
Adds a jumpgate - an object, which allows ships to travel between systems. Every jumpgate must be paired with another one, for example, if in system A theres a jumpgate, that leads to system B, then in system B must be a jumpgate, that leads to system A.

AddNPCShipToSystem
Arguments	Returns	Example
string: npc_name string: behavior - AI-script ("brains") int: level string: xml_type - npc xml type int: system_id double: coord_x double: coord_y (optional) object: tags	int: ID of created object	var id = generator.AddNPCShipToSystem("Pirate", "PirateAI", 100, "PirateNpc01", 1, 105, 223, {class: "pirate", uniq_id: "boss"});
Description
Adds an npc ship into game. NPC's avatar and faction are set through another functions - generator.SetNPCAvatar and relations.SetShipFaction

OverrideDropList
Arguments	Returns	Example
int: ship_id array: droplists - strings array of droplists	void	generator.OverrideDropList(23303, ["DropList01", "DropList02"]);
Description
Adds specified droplists to npc's droplists list.

AddPlanet
Arguments	Returns	Example
int: system_id double: coord_x double: coord_y string: name int: seed	int: ID of created object	var id = generator.AddPlanet(1, 0, 0, "Earth", 123);
Description
Adds planet to game world. Planet's look is driven by seed, based on which planet's look will be defined by random generator. If you want a particular planet, you should either use seed with defined results (by our tool - SeedGenerator), or use another function - AddPlanetWithType.

AddPlanetWithType
Arguments	Returns	Example
int: system_id double: coord_x double: coord_y string: name int: seed string: planet_config_type	int: ID of created object	var id = generator.AddPlanet(1, 0, 0, "Earth", 123);
Description
Adds planet to game world. Planet's look is driven partially be seed, but mostly by the specified type.
