=== Client or Server, what are those?! ===
 +
One of the most important concepts to understand while script modifying Holdfast is the concept of "Client" and "Server".
 +
 +
The "Server" is the game server which handles all players verification data, networking, chat/voip, etc.
 +
 +
Whereas the "Client" is either your own client referred to as the "Owner/Local Player" or someone else referred to as a "Proxy".
 +
 +
=== Mod Install and Load Types ===
 +
Similarly to the normal process of using the ‎<code>load_mod <steam_id></code> load type for mods, we've added a <code>load_mod_server_only <steamid></code> which loads a mod specifically only on server side (such as a custom stats tracking or auto admin mod), and a <code>load_mod_client_only <steamid></code> which inversely only loads the mod on client side (such as a ui mod or a audio replacement mod). In addition <code>mods_installed_server_only <steamid></code> was also added. The advantage of this is mods that the client does not need to join the server, the clients won't need to install the mod on their end.
 +
 +
The load order for this new feature is first all the Common Mods are loaded and than the client/server specific one's are loaded. As always, the internal order of each list, is dependant on the order of how they were typed in the config file.
 +
 +
Please note players can only load mods that the server allows on their list, so a <code>mods_installed_client_only <steamid></code> doesn't make sense, so if you're going to be making a client only loaded mod, it needs to be installed on both the client and the server.
 +
 +
=== Mod Variables===
 +
Simply put, mods can receive variables through the PassConfigVariables() method. These variables are supplied in the server config file in the format <code>mod_variable <string></code> for Global Scope (outside of the map rotations) or <code>mod_variable_local <string></code>Local Scope (inside the map rotation). Global Scope variables will always be loaded BEFORE any local scope variables.
 +
 +
Server config mod variables are received from all mods, so a pattern of prefixing your mod variables with your mod id, <code>modid:key:value</code>, is highly recommended, unless you're working on multiple mods that can share settings data.
 +
 +
=== Security Concerns ===
 +
 +
As you might be aware, we have some security related scripts that, for example don't allow a modder to gain access to the server or client's machine (ie: System.IO, System.Reflection, etc), these typically will show up as an error on the server's console with something along the lines of
 +
[UMod.Scripting.ScriptDomain]: Illegal reference to disallowed namespace: System.Reflection.
 +
 +
We've added a feature for server hosts to be able to pass a "-allowRestrictedMods" in the launch parameters of the server. This will turn off the securities on the server machine ONLY, for ALL the mods. As such, if you rent your servers, you will need to talk to your host provider to enable this if they want to support it.
 +
 +
What this will allow you to do is hook directly with IO operations and other restricted features (writing files, databases, websites api's, etc) so for development this will open major features that will be able to be done easier or that weren't able to be done outright.
 +
 +
=== Gotchya's ===
 +
It's highly recommended that most actions that a mod would do would be defered by a frame or a few ms when it comes to interacting with a player (healing, damaging, reviving, positioning, rotation, etc). If you code something, and it's logically sound, but ingame it's not doing exactly as expected or has bugs occuring due to it, after trying to delay the action, feel free to ask in mod-support.
 +
 +
Note, don't use a "static" member inside of the Interface classes. This confuses the dynamic loader of C# and it'll be bad times for you trying to figure out why.

How to create a script SDK mod

The Basic Flow

Basic knowledge of C# and Unity is required.

To start with script modding in holdfast, create a new mod and in this mod’s folder create a new script. This script should implement the shared interface IHoldfastSharedMethods.

For example, here’s a mod that’s called “LineFormer” that has the script called “LineFormer.cs” which implements the IHoldfastSharedMethods interface.

Script Modding Create Project.png

Client or Server, what are those?!

One of the most important concepts to understand while script modifying Holdfast is the concept of "Client" and "Server".

The "Server" is the game server which handles all players verification data, networking, chat/voip, etc.

Whereas the "Client" is either your own client referred to as the "Owner/Local Player" or someone else referred to as a "Proxy".

Mod Install and Load Types

Similarly to the normal process of using the ‎load_mod <steam_id> load type for mods, we've added a load_mod_server_only <steamid> which loads a mod specifically only on server side (such as a custom stats tracking or auto admin mod), and a load_mod_client_only <steamid> which inversely only loads the mod on client side (such as a ui mod or a audio replacement mod). In addition mods_installed_server_only <steamid> was also added. The advantage of this is mods that the client does not need to join the server, the clients won't need to install the mod on their end.

The load order for this new feature is first all the Common Mods are loaded and than the client/server specific one's are loaded. As always, the internal order of each list, is dependant on the order of how they were typed in the config file.

Please note players can only load mods that the server allows on their list, so a mods_installed_client_only <steamid> doesn't make sense, so if you're going to be making a client only loaded mod, it needs to be installed on both the client and the server.

Mod Variables

Simply put, mods can receive variables through the PassConfigVariables() method. These variables are supplied in the server config file in the format mod_variable <string> for Global Scope (outside of the map rotations) or mod_variable_local <string>Local Scope (inside the map rotation). Global Scope variables will always be loaded BEFORE any local scope variables.

Server config mod variables are received from all mods, so a pattern of prefixing your mod variables with your mod id, modid:key:value, is highly recommended, unless you're working on multiple mods that can share settings data.

Security Concerns

As you might be aware, we have some security related scripts that, for example don't allow a modder to gain access to the server or client's machine (ie: System.IO, System.Reflection, etc), these typically will show up as an error on the server's console with something along the lines of

[UMod.Scripting.ScriptDomain]: Illegal reference to disallowed namespace: System.Reflection.

We've added a feature for server hosts to be able to pass a "-allowRestrictedMods" in the launch parameters of the server. This will turn off the securities on the server machine ONLY, for ALL the mods. As such, if you rent your servers, you will need to talk to your host provider to enable this if they want to support it.

What this will allow you to do is hook directly with IO operations and other restricted features (writing files, databases, websites api's, etc) so for development this will open major features that will be able to be done easier or that weren't able to be done outright.

Gotchya's

It's highly recommended that most actions that a mod would do would be defered by a frame or a few ms when it comes to interacting with a player (healing, damaging, reviving, positioning, rotation, etc). If you code something, and it's logically sound, but ingame it's not doing exactly as expected or has bugs occuring due to it, after trying to delay the action, feel free to ask in mod-support.

Note, don't use a "static" member inside of the Interface classes. This confuses the dynamic loader of C# and it'll be bad times for you trying to figure out why.

New RC commands specific for modding use

Make carbon player bots not do any auto input

If you plan on modifying bots position or rotation, call the following script to force bots to not auto move or rotate. Note: this is different than setting the carbonplayer forceInputAxis/forceInputRotation, since thoses ones will lock ALL the bots in the action, whereas this will allow you to individually control bots's facing rotation and movement system.

rc carbonPlayers ignoreAutoControls <true/false>

Send network trajectory info to client without showing it to players

Similar to drawFirearmTrajectories, this will send the trajectory data from server to client. Unlike the aforementioned command, this will NOT display it to the player, but the mod will still be recieving the data. Enable this only if you're planning on using the "OnShotInfo" on a client side, for server side mods, this isn't required.

rc set drawFirearmTrajectoriesInfo <true/false>

Quiet Messages

These messages will not shown to the player anywhere. The intended use for them is for a server-side mod to be able to communicate to a client side mod.

For example;

You have a mod that every time a player presses a button on your mod custom ui, you want to slap a player for 5 damage and they will be shown the message `haha you got slapped by <playername>` on their end of the mod. You are be able to do this by creating a mod that on the player's client side [ie player 3], you have a custom ui panel with a button, which when the button is pressed will send a message to the server (multiple ways of doing this, for example using rc system). This message is than read by the server side mod (could be the same mod, just need conditional logic using the "OnIsServer" and "OnIsClient" to split the mod up) and slaps the targetted player [ie player 5]. Than the server would send a quietPrivateMessage to the slapped target [player 5] informing him that he just got slapped by player 3. The client side of player 5 will than read the quiet private message (using OnTextMessage) and handle it appriopiately.

rc serverAdmin quietPrivateMessage <player_id> <message>
rc serverAdmin quietBroadcastMessage <message>

IHoldfastSharedMethods

If you hover over the interface's properties in visual studio, these can be found in the inspector too. In case visual studio doesn't link the dll correctly to inspect the data, feel free to refer to the raw cs files inside the DLL.

OnSyncValueState

The game will share an int when the mod loads. A random synchronized value (same on client and server), for example useful if you need a seed for a map generator.

void OnSyncValueState(int value);

OnUpdateSyncedTime

The game will share the current synchronized time (same on client and server) on every frame of the game.

void OnUpdateSyncedTime(double time);

OnUpdateElapsedTime

The game will return the seconds since the round started on every frame of the game.

void OnUpdateElapsedTime(float time);

OnUpdateTimeRemaining

The game will share the current remaining time on every frame of the game.

void OnUpdateTimeRemaining(float time);

OnIsServer

The game will return if the mod is loaded on a server.

void OnIsServer(bool server);

OnIsClient

The game will return if the mod is loaded on a client, if it is, you'll retrieve the current player's steam id.
