# # Syntax: # FEATURE_NAME <S/C> <ON/OFF> [int-arg] [int-arg] # # Description: # FEATURE_NAME: is a unique string of up to 80 characters describing # a client or server feature. # <S/C>: 'S' indicates that the feature requires server support. Servers # that do not support the feature, regardless of how it is listed in the # .features file, will return value UNKNOWN to clients requesting that # feature. 'C' indicates that the feature is a client option, requiring no # special code support from the server. # <ON/OFF>: As stated above, if the server does not support a given feature, # this value is ignored and UNKNOWN will be sent to the client. Otherwise # this value is returned and will be honored by the client. # [int-args]: two optional integer args may be used for future extensions. # # feature packets support FEATURE_PACKETS S ON # why-dead message extra args (see vanilla server) WHY_DEAD S ON # receiver-configurable distress (see vanilla server) RC_DISTRESS S ON # multi-line macros (see vanilla server) MULTIMACROS C ON # first 8 flags of my ship sent in SP_S_YOU_SS (see vanilla server) SELF_8FLAGS S ON # send 19 flags in SP_S_YOU_SS and SP_SEQUENCE 19FLAGS S ON # warp 15 means player is cloaked (see vanilla server) CLOAK_MAXWARP S OFF # SB hours (?)

The same information for players is already included in the # original packet format. When a client requests this feature, the # average data rate to the client will increase, because the short # packet format for ships is turned off. FULL_DIRECTION_RESOLUTION S ON # Despite using short packets, show own torps beyond tactical for # players, and show all weapons to observers. The same information # for players is already included in the original packet format. When # a client requests this feature, the average data rate to the client # will increase, because the short packet format for torps is turned off. FULL_WEAPON_RESOLUTION S ON # Adds support for CP_PLANET, which is a request from client for the # server to check if the client's knowledge of a planet needs # updating. The server issues an SP_PLANET in reply if an update is # needed. Reduces effect of packet loss by enforcing state. Reduces # need for the player to request an update of planets. The client is # entitled to request updates whenever it wishes. CHECK_PLANETS S ON # Show tractors and pressors for all players' ships. Regardless of the # setting here, this will be turned on for observers. SHOW_ALL_TRACTORS S OFF # army counts next to planets SHOW_ARMY_COUNT S OFF # show other player's speed SHOW_OTHER_SPEED S OFF # show other cloakers on tactical map SHOW_CLOAKERS S OFF # allow turning via keyboard TURN_KEYS S OFF # Allow clients to show the range at which enemy ships can see you as a circle # on the galactic map. This information can be derived by the client by # mimicing the function udplayersight() in daemonII.c. SHOW_VISIBILITY_RANGE S OFF # Flag packet that sends abbreviated flags (cloak, shield, alive) for all # players every update for those who use SP_PLAYER instead of SP_S_PLAYER. SP_FLAGS_ALL S ON # Send additional p_whydead states (KSHIP2, KTORP2, KPLASMA2) to clients which # can handle those cases. WHY_DEAD_2 S ON # # # OLD FORMAT FOR CLIENTS WITHOUT FEATURE_PACKETS SUPPORT. # # INL SERVERS READ: The inl servers are using a broken version of # feature.c and no one seems to want to fix it. So ALL the # features without confirm strings WILL NOT work. YOU WILL # HAVE TO PUT A CONFIRM ON THEM. To do this for example change: # Client Of Win: WHY_DEAD to # Client Of Win*confirm:0.00.0: WHY_DEAD # # # # BRM FEATURES # # NEWMACRO and SMARTMACRO are intelligent message macro sending. For more info # look at the NEWMACRO.DOC that comes with the BRM source. # These should be disabled soon since they are now on by default and BRM2.99 # doesn't use these anymore. BerkRick Moo!confirm:2.99.0: NEWMACRO BerkRick Moo!confirm:2.99.0: SMARTMACRO # # WHY_DEAD will allow the server/client to communicate why a player died while # using Short Packets. BerkRick Moo*confirm:2.00.15: WHY_DEAD # ricksmoo 3.0*confirm:moo 3.0.99: WHY_DEAD # # # Starting with 2.99 the BRM will have SMART_MACROS on unless told not to by # the server. NOSMARTMACROS turns off smart-macros. #BerkRick Moo*confirm:2.99.0: NO_SMARTMACROS # # NO_SMARTDISTRESS is new to BRM 2.99. It disables the smart distresses when # the client recieves the string. #BerkRick Moo*confirm:2.99.0: NO_SMARTDISTRESS # # RC_DISTRESS is new to BRM 2.99pl2. It enables variable distress calls. If the # server has it then it should be enabled. BerkRick Moo*confirm:2.99.3: RC_DISTRESS # # NO_CONTINUOUS_MOUSE is to disable the ability to have auto-repeat with the # mouse.
