Cache

Cache is a temporary data manager that makes cached data to persist through levels.

Cache exposes very simple public API:

• SetValue

  public function SetValue(string Key, string Value)
  
  Store a value ``Value`` under a key ``Key``.
  

• SetArray

  public function SetArray(string Key, array<string> Array)
  
  Store an array of values ``Array`` under same key ``Key``.
  

• GetValue

  public function string GetValue(string Key)
  
  Return value of the first entry matching key ``Key``.
  

• GetArray

  public function array<string> GetArray(string Key)
  
  Return an array of values stored under the same key ``Key``.
  

To obtain the Cache instance you must invoke GetCache() on the Core object:

local Julia.Cache Cache;
local string Value;
// Obtain the Cache instance
Cache = self.Core.GetCache();
// Retrieve a value
Value = Cache.GetValue("foo");
// Set a value
if (Value == "")
{
  Cache.SetValue("foo", "bar");
}

By default all cache entries are stored for 86400 seconds (24 hours). To configure global cache expiration time alter the TTL value of the [Julia.Cache] section in Swat4DedicatedServer.ini:

[Julia.Cache]
TTL=300

Dispatcher

Dispatcher is a Core asset that provides an ability to register client commands. A client command is a typical chat/teamchat message that begins with a ! (exclamation sign). The builtin commands !version and !help serve as an example to the dispatcher protocol.

To register a command you have to the following:

1. Implement the Julia.InterestedInCommandDispatched interface:

   class MyExtension extends Julia.Extension implements InterestedInCommandDispatched;
   
   public function OnCommandDispatched(Julia.Dispatcher Dispatcher, string Name, string Id, array<string> Args, Julia.Player Player)
   {
     // Handle dispatched commands
   }
   

2. Obtain the Dispatcher instance invoking GetDispatcher() on the Core object:

   local Julia.Dispatcher Dispatcher;
   
   Dispatcher = self.Core.GetDispatcher();
   

3. Register commands:

   Dispatcher.Bind("mycommand", self, "!mycommand argument1 argument2", "This command does something");
   Dispatcher.Bind("myothercommand", self, "!myothercommand argument", "This command does something as well");
   

4. Unregister commands before the object gets dealloacated:

   Dispatcher.Unbind("mycommand", self);
   Dispatcher.Unbind("myothercommand", self);
   

   or

   Dispatcher.UnbindAll(self);
   

   to unregister all commands that have been tied to a particular instance.

Once a client command is dispatched, the dispatcher expects a response from the instance that has pledged to handle the command. Dispatcher provides a plain and simple public API for handling command output:

• Dispatcher.Respond

  public function Respond(string Id, string Response)
  

• Dispatcher.ThrowError

  public function ThrowError(string Id, string Error)
  

• Dispatcher.ThrowUsageError

  public function ThrowUsageError(string Id)
  

• Dispatcher.ThrowPermissionError

  public function ThrowPermissionError(string Id)
  

All of the response methods expect an Id argument. Id is a unique command identifier that is generated upon the moment a client command is placed into the dispatcher queue.

Suppose you wanted to implement !time and !date that would display the current server time and date respectively:

class MyExtension extends Julia.Extension implements InterestedInCommandDispatched;

function BeginPlay()
{
    Super.BeginPlay();
    // register self as the "time" command handler
    // providing dispatcher with detailed usage information
    self.Core.GetDispatcher().Bind("time", self, "!time", "Displays the current server time.");
    self.Core.GetDispatcher().Bind("date", self, "!date", "Displays the current server date.");
}

public function OnCommandDispatched(Julia.Dispatcher Dispatcher, string Name, string Id, array<string> Args, Julia.Player Player)
{
    local string TimeFormatted, DateFormatted, Response;

    // A command handler is always passed the lowercase version of a registered command
    switch (Name)
    {
        case "time":

             // Display HH:MM time (eg. 19:47)
            TimeFormatted = class'Utils.LevelUtils'.static.FormatTime(
              class'Utils.LevelUtils'.sttaic.GetTime(self.Level),
              "%H:%M"
            );
            Response = "Current server time is " $ TimeFormatted;

            break;

        case "date":

            DateFormatted = class'Utils.LevelUtils'.static.FormatTime(
              class'Utils.LevelUtils'.sttaic.GetTime(self.Level),
              "%Y:%m:%d"
            );

            Response = "Current server date is " $ DateFormatted;

            break;
    }

    Dispatcher.Respond(Id, Response);
}

event Destroyed()
{
    self.Core.GetDispatcher().UnbindAll(self);
    Super.Destroyed();
}

In case a designated handler does not respond in a reasonable amount of time (defined with the constant COMMAND_TIMEOUT in Dispatcher.uc), the dispatcher removes the dispatched command from its queue.

Event Manager

Julia provides a rich set of subscribable event handlers

• OnEventBroadcast

  OnEventBroadcast event manager provides an ability to subscribe to all types of broadcast events emitted everywhere across the native and custom game code, be it Say or AdminMsg.

  interface InterestedInEventBroadcast;
  
  public function bool OnEventBroadcast(Julia.Player Player, Actor Sender, name Type, out string Msg, optional PlayerController Receiver, optional bool bHidden);
  

  • Player is a reference to the Julia.Player player controller of the original event broadcaster (where applicable).

  • Sender is a reference to the original event broadcaster.

  • Type is an event type such as Say or TeamSay which may be any of the following

    AllBombsDisarmed

  • Msg is an optional event message, which may be altered before displaying in chat (out).

  • Receiver is a broadcast target reference (optional).

  • bHidden indicates whether the event has been hidden by any of the registered Julia extensions (optional).

  An implemented OnEventBroadcast method must return true if the extension does not wish to stop a particular event from broadcasting, or false if it does not wish to interfere with the event visibility at all.

  Consider the following example of an extension that has a sole purpose to stop player messages containing the word "foo" from appearing in chat:

  class MySillyExtension extends Julia.Extension implements Julia.InterestedInEventBroadcast;
  
  public function BeginPlay()
  {
      Super.BeginPlay();
      // Register MySillyExtension with the Julia event handler
      self.Core.RegisterInterestedInEventBroadcast(self);
  }
  
  public function bool OnEventBroadcast(Julia.Player Player, Actor Sender, name Type, out string Msg, optional PlayerController Receiver, optional bool bHidden)
  {
    // This event has already been marked hidden by some other Julia extension
      if (bHidden)
      {
          return true;
      }
  
      // Not interested in this event type
      if (Player == None || !(Type == 'Say' || Type == 'TeamSay'))
      {
          return true;
      }
  
      // Dont allow the word "foo" to appear anywhere in chat
      if (class'Utils.StringUtils'.static.Match(Msg, "*foo*"))
      {
          return false;
      }
  
      return true;
  }
  
  event Destroyed()
  {
      if (self.Core != None)
      {
        // Unregister MySillyExtension before deallocating
        self.Core.UnregisterInterestedInEventBroadcast(self);
      }
  
      Super.Destroyed();
  }
  

• OnInternalEventBroadcast

  OnInternalEventBroadcast allows you to subscribe to the Julia's internal events such as PlayerHit or PlayerArrest.

  interface InterestedInInternalEventBroadcast;
  
  public function OnInternalEventBroadcast(name Type, optional string Msg, optional Player PlayerOne, optional Player PlayerTwo);
  

  • Type is an event type that may be any of the following

    EnemyHostageIncap
    EnemyHostageKill
    EnemyPlayerKill
    PlayerArrest
    PlayerEnemyHit
    PlayerEnemyIncap
    PlayerEnemyIncapInvalid
    PlayerEnemyKill
    PlayerEnemyKillInvalid
    PlayerHit
    PlayerHit
    PlayerHostageHit
    PlayerHostageIncap
    PlayerHostageKill
    PlayerKill
    PlayerReport
    PlayerSelfHit
    PlayerSelfHit
    PlayerSuicide
    PlayerTeamHit
    PlayerTeamHit
    PlayerTeamKill
    

  • Msg is an optional event message that holds weapon friendly name (where applicable). (optional)

  • PlayerOne, PlayerTwo hold reference to players affected by the event (where applicable) (optional)

• OnGameStateChanged

  OnGameStateChanged will fire whenether a game changes its state.

  interface InterestedInGameStateChanged;
  
  public function OnGameStateChanged(eSwatGameState OldState, eSwatGameState NewState);
  

  • OldState is the previous game state code.
  • NewState is the current game state code.

  Both the OldState and NewState arguments may be any of the following:

  GAMESTATE_None              // Not in game at all, GUI only
  GAMESTATE_EntryLoading      // Currently loading the entry level
  GAMESTATE_LevelLoading      // Currently loading a (non-entry) level
  GAMESTATE_PreGame           // Level has loaded but round not yet begun
  GAMESTATE_MidGame           // Game in progress
  GAMESTATE_PostGame          // Level completed
  GAMESTATE_ClientTravel      // Client is travelling to the new map on the server
  GAMESTATE_ConnectionFailed  // Client failed to connect to the server (remote OR local)
  

• OnMissionStarted

• OnMissionEnded

  OnMissionStarted, OnMissionEnded are convenient wrappers around OnGameStateChanged that will fire whenever a game changes its state from GAMESTATE_PreGame to GAMESTATE_MidGame or from GAMESTATE_MidGame to GAMESTATE_PostGame respectively.

  interface InterestedInMissionStarted;
  
  public function OnMissionStarted();
  

  interface InterestedInMissionEnded;
  
  public function OnMissionEnded();
  

• OnPlayerConnected

  OnPlayerConnected will be invoked upon player connection.

  interface InterestedInPlayerConnected;
  
  public function OnPlayerConnected(Julia.Player Player);
  

• OnPlayerDisconnected

  OnPlayerDisconnected will be invoked upon player disconnection.

  interface InterestedInPlayerDisconnected;
  
  public function OnPlayerDisconnected(Julia.Player Player);
  

• OnPlayerAdminLogged

  OnPlayerAdminLogged will fire whenever a player logs in with admin password.

  interface InterestedInPlayerAdminLogged;
  
  public function OnPlayerAdminLogged(Julia.Player Player);
  

• OnPlayerLoaded

  OnPlayerLoaded will fire upon the moment a player gets all of the local content loaded (i.e. she is able to see chat and scoreboard).

  interface InterestedInPlayerLoaded;
  
  public function OnPlayerLoaded(Player Player);
  

• OnPlayerNameChanged

  OnPlayerNameChanged is fired upon a player name change.

  interface InterestedInPlayerNameChanged;
  
  public function OnPlayerNameChanged(Julia.Player Player, string OldName);
  

  • OldName holds the previous player name. The current name can be retrieved with a Player.GetName method call.

• OnPlayerTeamSwitched

  OnPlayerTeamSwitched will be fired whenever a player changes their team.

  interface InterestedInPlayerTeamSwitched;
  
  public function OnPlayerTeamSwitched(Julia.Player Player);
  

• OnPlayerVIPSet

  OnPlayerVIPSet is fired upon the moment a player is assigned to be the VIP.

  interface InterestedInPlayerVIPSet;
  
  public function OnPlayerVIPSet(Player Player);
  

• OnPlayerPawnChanged

  OnPlayerPawnChanged will fire upon a player Pawn change.

  interface InterestedInPlayerPawnChanged;
  
  public function OnPlayerPawnChanged(Julia.Player Player);
  

• OnPlayerVoiceChanged

  OnPlayerVoiceChanged will fire whenever a player changes their voice type.

  interface InterestedInPlayerVoiceChanged;
  
  public function OnPlayerVoiceChanged(Julia.Player Player);
  

In order to subscribe to a specific event handler you must call RegisterInterestedIn%EventType% on an instance of Julia.Core providing it with an instance of a class that implements an assotitated InterestedIn%EventType% interface.

Suppose you had to listen to all OnGameStateChanged events. To do so you would do the following:

1. Subclass Julia.Extension and implement the Julia.InterestedInGameStateChanged interface

   class MyExtension extends Julia.Extension implements Julia.InterestedInGameStateChanged;
   
   import enum eSwatGameState from SwatGame.SwatGUIConfig;
   
   public function OnGameStateChanged(eSwatGameState OldState, eSwatGameState NewState)
   {
       log("old state: " $ OldState $ " | new state: " $ NewState);
   }
   

2. Register instances of the extension class with the event handler at Julia.Core available in your Julia.Extension derived class as self.Core

   function BeginPlay()
   {
       Super.BeginPlay();
   
       self.Core.RegisterInterestedInGameStateChanged(self);
   }
   

3. Make sure to unregister from the event handler just before object destruction

   event Destroyed
   {
       self.Core.UnregisterInterestedInGameStateChanged(self);
   
       Super.Destroyed();
   }
