set_named_object_tag_state

Page history last edited by nschlein@... 2 years, 7 months ago

The set_named_object_tag_state mission scripting command updates the tag detected state for an enemy or neutral (including bases). For monsters, instead use set_monster_tag_data. No other named objects support tags. The actual text viewable on the science console is not configurable, it is either "Tag detected" or absent.

Attribute	Valid Values	Optional?	Description
name	text	Either use name or use_gm_selection, but not both	Name of enemy or neutral.
use_gm_selection	anything (value is ignored)	Either use name or use_gm_selection, but not both	Use GM selected object.
tagged	integer	Optional	If non-zero or absent, the tag state of the object will be set to TRUE, otherwise FALSE.
tagSourceSide	0-31 (integer)	Optional	Side value that hit the object with the tag.
tagSourceName	text	Optional* (*Required test for if_object_tag_matches)	Tag source.

Examples

To set "Tag detected" to be displayed on enemy or neutral X01:

<set_named_object_tag_state name="X01" />

To clear "Tag detected":

<set_named_object_tag_state name="X01" tagged="0" />

NOTES (tested in 2.7.5)
1. Objects can only have one tag at a time.
2. Regardless of game settings, a tag renders objects visible at any range and inside of nebulae for ships on the same side value as the tag.
3. Bases can be tagged and tested with if_object_tag_matches, this status does not display on the Science screen.
