[1.17] Predefined Events Suggestions
|
Just a few I can think of:
OnZoneChange
I think we need this one added because packages may have classes that may need to be enabled and disabled based on the map zone. This provides a single interface instead of having to replicate the commands in every zone script in the map.
OnLoad
Possibly useful for allowing a package to adjust its configuration based on the presence of other packages, or just adjusting configuration for first time it is loaded from the package library.
OnEnable
OnDisable
Both may be useful as packages begin to interract more with each other, these would be called with information on what setting had been dis/enabled. |

Then OnEnable/OnDisable might be a tough one, since there are many ways for a setting to get enabled/disabled and this would essentially require a trap in the database to see if this field gets modified, and calling events from database "OnPost" events is probably a bad idea.
The OnLoad is easy, and the OnZoneChange *should* be easy, although I really don't like to mess with the mapper right now. |
