ReadOnlyHyperspaceEngine

function ReadOnlyHyperspaceEngine(var id)

Parameters

id The id of the entity, must be an index of an existing entity or nil for the entity in the current script context

Returns

A new instance of ReadOnlyHyperspaceEngine

property bool blocked[read-only]
True if the hyperspace engine is being blocked.
property bool clearSpace[read-only]
Sets the hyperspace engine to "clear space", which speeds up the cooldown to avoid annoying wait times in empty sectors. This value is overridden if the engine is or gets blocked or distorted.
property string consumerIcon[read-only]
Energy consumer icon of the engine as shown in the energy tab.
property string consumerName[read-only]
Energy consumer name of the engine as shown in the energy tab.
property float cooldown[read-only]
Cooldown in seconds of the engine. Current cooldown is set to this on exhaustion of the hyperspace engine. When this value is changed, it will be overridden once the player builds, reloads or installs upgrades.
property float cooldownSpeed[read-only]
Cooldown speed factor. Default is 1, can be 0.25 (distorted), 0 (blocked) or up to 3 (clear space). If hyperspace energy efficiency is below 1, this value is adjusted accordingly.
property float currentCooldown[read-only]
Current cooldown in seconds of the engine. this is the number that ticks down over time.
property int defaultPriority[read-only]
Energy consumer default priority of the engine as shown in the energy tab.
property bool displayedCooldown[read-only]
Cooldown in seconds as it would be displayed to the player. This result varies, depending on distorts, clear space or blockage.
property bool distorted[read-only]
True if the hyperspace engine is being distorted. This is the case when a ship is under attack or when distort() was called.
property Entity entity[read-only]
property uuid entityId[read-only]
property bool isSceneEmpty[read-only]
Checks if the scene is considered "empty enough" to set "clear space" to true, and thus recharge the engine quicker. This is the case when there are only group, own faction or alliance member ships present
property bool passBlocked[read-only]
Whether or not the hyperspace engine is capable of jumping over rifts. When this value is changed, it will be overridden once the player builds or installs upgrades.
property float range[read-only]
Range in sectors of the engine. When this value is changed, it will be overridden once the player builds or installs upgrades.
property double requiredEnergy[read-only]
Currently required energy of the engine as shown in the energy tab.
property float requiredEnergyForJump[read-only]
Amount of energy in W required to do a hyperspace jump (or rather: recharge the engine)

function bool, var isJumpRouteValid(int fromX, int fromY, int toX, int toY)

Checks if a hyperspace route would be valid.

Parameters

fromX X coordinate of the origin
fromY Y coordinate of the origin
toX X coordinate of the destination
toY Y coordinate of the destination

Returns

Returns a bool (true, false), and, if false, a string containing the reason why it's invalid
