A modding utility for Lethal Company that allows mods to add their own custom commands to the ship terminal.
- Mod is entirely client side and does not attempt to handle any networking logic, this should be handled by your mod instead.
- A custom interaction mode can be enabled that will temporarily disable the default terminal commands.
- Need to consolidate harmony patches into a single class.
- Add an event/callback for when user begins/ends interaction with terminal.
Download the current built .dll file in the releases and include it as a refrence in your local mod project. When packaging your mode, be sure to either include it (local play) or include it as a dependency (mod manager).
Once included in your project, inside your mod you can run the following to add a custom command.
TerminalExtenderUtils.addQuickCommand("helloworld", "Hello World!", true, (Terminal term, TerminalNode node) =>
{
// a callback that is called when the command is ran
});If you need/want to define your own keyword, node, and compatible nouns, you can add a command this way as well.
TerminalNode nodeObject = ScriptableObject.CreateInstance<TerminalNode>();
nodeObject.clearPreviousText = true;
nodeObject.terminalEvent = "helloWorldEvent";
nodeObject.displayText = "Hello world!";
TerminalKeyword keywordObject = ScriptableObject.CreateInstance<TerminalKeyword>();
keywordObject.word = "helloworld";
keywordObject.specialKeywordResult = nodeObject;
Action<Terminal, TerminalNode> callbackAction = (term, node) =>
{
// run some function here
//
//
// or if you want to take over the terminal completely for custom applications
TerminalExtenderUtils.setOnSubmit((string command) =>
{
// command will be the next raw text command that is submitted
// you can call various helper methods such as
// toggle terminal input state
TerminalExtenderUtils.setInputState(true);
// clear terminal screen
TerminalExtenderUtils.cleanTerminalScreen();
// write to terminal
TerminalExtenderUtils.writeToTerminal("Hello again, you typed in: " + command + "\n");
// play audio
TerminalExtenderUtils.playAudioClip(0);
// instead of writing, you can send a node
TerminalExtenderUtils.displayNodeOnTerminal(nodeObject);
// we are done with custom input, handle the terminal over to the game
TerminalExtenderUtils.releaseOnSubmit();
// in a real world use case, you would not run all of these at once.
// they are just here to display what can be done
});
};
TerminalExtenderUtils.addCustomCommand(new TerminalCustomCommand()
{
keyword = keywordObject,
node = nodeObject,
callback = callbackAction
