1) Is there a good reason why plugins are not allowed to have their own purchase hooks? Or is that just an omission on WhiteDragon's part?
2) Again, is there a good reason why plugins cannot listen for DragonGuard events except by monitoring the SSGMlog?
3) How would I go about creating a plugin that provides services (functions, classes,...) to other plugins? Or, can plugins only use services provided by SSGM itself?
P.S. Is DragonGuard still alive and kicking? Or, did BIATCH's release pre-empt that project?

If you have trouble running BIATCH on your FDS, have some questions about a BIATCH message or log entry, or think that BIATCH spit out a false positive, PLEASE contact the BlackIntel coding team and avoid wasting the time of others.

3) Download the LuaPlugin

1) That is NOT what I am talking about. I just want to have it so that one native SSGM plugin can use functions provided by another.
2) I tried RenLua, but I got like 2-3 SFPS with it installed.

You can make purchase hooks. There just isn't an example of one.

|
You could have SSGM load both plugins and then have one plugin use GetModuleHandle to get the address of the other plugin and export functions from it. This will only work on windows though.

No.

Well, not without stomping on what other plugins might do with them.

Hacky, but workable (and I could probably do it on Linux too, it's just a matter of figuring out how).

No.

Well then, I would like to see the DragonGuard hook in SSGM either a) deleted or b) used by BIATCH.

You can have multiple purchase hooks. Unlike the player join, player leave, console output, chat, and host chat hooks which only allow one hook. That's why they were implemented in plugins like they are.

In other words, you can have as many plugins hook purchases as you want?

Yes. You can have as many purchase hooks as you want, whether they're in a plugin or SSGM itself.

Ah, that makes sense.
Since DragonGuard is dead, what is going to be done with SSGM's DragonGuard hook? Are you already planning to delete it? Or, should I talk to StealthEye about having BIATCH take advantage of it?
