Ship Cripple on Death

[Taffic]

This is a good idea, I just wonder about the strain it will place on the FLhook infrastructure if it needs to keep track of every death in a four hour period. How many server deaths are there, how many tiers of cost will there be to this (so how many times will each dead character need to be checked and amended by the plugin?), and will repairs be made automatically even if you hit respawn and then log off, rather than just logging off? Will cost/time profiles for each ship and piece of equipment need to be manually constructed, or can they be randomly generated within a certain specific band? How much time is spent overwriting information and does it interfere with other actions of the server?

Glad you like the idea :)

Whenever a ship takes damage the state of disrepair is recorded as default - this is part of the game mechanics already.
If a ship is destroyed then the server could set a repair bill (appropriate to ship class & equipment) & then all you would need to do is log time of death & log time of launch & do a sum.
I'm not a dev, but I have done games coding & believe the strain on the server should be minimal.
