If you want to add teams or hogs manually you have to do it here.

=== <tt>onGameStart()</tt> ===

<blockquote>This function is called when the first round starts.

</blockquote>

Can be used to show the mission and for more setup, for example initial target spawning.

=== <tt>onGameTick()</tt> ===

<blockquote>This function is called on every game tick, i.e. 1000 times a second.

</blockquote>

=== <tt>onGearAdd(gearUid)</tt> ===

<blockquote>This function is called when a new gear is added. Useful in

combination with <tt>!GetGearType(gearUid)</tt>.

</blockquote>

=== <tt>onGearDelete(gearUid)</tt> ===

<blockquote>This function is called when a new gear is deleted. Useful in

combination with <tt>!GetGearType(gearUid)</tt>.

</blockquote>

=== <tt>onAmmoStoreInit()</tt> ===

<blockquote>This function is called when the game is initialized to request the available ammo and ammo probabilities. Use SetAmmo here.

</blockquote>

== Functions for creating gears ==

=== <tt>!AddGear(x, y, gearType, state, dx, dy, timer)</tt> ===

<blockquote>This creates a new gear at position x,y (measured from top left) of kind gearType (see [GearTypes Gear Types]). The initial velocities are dx and dy. All arguments are numbers. The function returns the uid of the gear created.

</blockquote>

Example:

<code lang="lua">    local gear = !AddGear(0, 0, gtTarget, 0, 0, 0, 0)

    !FindPlace(gear, true, 0, LAND_WIDTH)</code>

=== <tt>!SpawnHealthCrate(x, y)</tt> (0.9.14) ===

<blockquote>Spawns a health crate at the specified position.

</blockquote>

=== <tt>!SpawnAmmoCrate(x, y, ammoType)</tt> (0.9.14) ===

<blockquote>Spawns an ammo crate at the specified position with content of ammoType (see [AmmoTypes Ammo Types]). Because by default settings the number of ammo in crates is zero it has to be increased to at least one with SetAmmo first, see the example:

</blockquote>

Example:

<code lang="lua">    !SetAmmo(amGrenade, 0, 0, 0, 1) -- see below

    !SpawnAmmoCrate(0, 0, amGrenade) -- x=y=0 means random position on map</code>

=== <tt>!SpawnUtilityCrate(x, y, ammoType)</tt> (0.9.14) ===

<blockquote>Spawns an utility crate at specified position with content of ammoType.

</blockquote>

Example:

<code lang="lua">    !SetAmmo(amLaserSight, 0, 0, 0, 1)

    !SpawnUtilityCrate(0, 0, amLaserSight)</code>

=== <tt>!AddTeam(teamname, color, grave, fort, voicepack)</tt> ===

<blockquote>Adds a new team. Note that this can only be done in onGameInit(), not at a later time. First argument is the team name followed by color, grave, fort and voicepack settings.

</blockquote>

Notice: This works only for singleplayers training missions for now and will desync multiplayer games.

Example:

<code lang="lua">    !AddTeam("team 1", 14483456, "Simple", "Island", "Default")</code>

=== <tt>!AddHog(hogname, botlevel, health, hat)</tt> ===

<blockquote>Adds a new hedgehog for current team (last created one), with botlevel and specified health also head.

</blockquote>

Notice: This works only for singleplayers training missions for now and will desync multiplayer games.

Example:

<code lang="lua">    local player = !AddHog("HH 1", 0, 100, "!NoHat") -- botlevel 0 means human player

    !SetGearPosition(player, 1500, 1000)</code>

</blockquote>

=== <tt>!SetAmmo(ammoType, count, probability, delay, numberInCrate)</tt> ===

<code lang="lua">    !SetAmmo(amShotgun, 9, 0, 0, 0) -- unlimited amount of shotgun ammo for players

    !SetAmmo(amGrenade, 0, 0, 0, 3) -- crates should contain always three grenade</code>

<blockquote>Sets the health of the specified gear.

</blockquote>

=== <tt>!SetEffect(gearUid, effect, true/false)</tt> (0.9.14) ===

</blockquote>

Example: (sets all bots poisoned)

<code lang="lua">    function onGearAdd(gear)

        if (!GetGearType(gear) === gtHedgehog) and (!GetBotLevel(gear) > 0) then

            !SetEffect(gear, hePoisoned, true)

        end

    end</code>
