Hooks

Hooks let you override the behavior of a function entirely

Info

Every hooks are async which means wait() is available

Level::createCampaignMission

This function is triggered when we join a station with a mission marker in, it can be a freelance mission or a campaign mission

Args

ctx is the MissionContext context

HookFunction("Level::createCampaignMission", function(ctx)
    print("createCampaignMission has been called !")
    ctx:call() -- calling real function (you can remove the ctx:call() if you want to override the hooked function entirely)
end)

Level::createMission

This function is triggered when we join a station without any missions, it can be really misleading due to of the function name being "createMission"

Args

ctx is the MissionContext context

HookFunction("Level::createMission", function(ctx)
    print("I'm in a new station !")
    ctx:call() -- calling real function (you can remove the ctx:call() if you want to override the hooked function entirely)
end)

Globals::init

This function is triggered when we start the game, this is really different from the EarlyInit function because EarlyInit is the modding api init and Globals::init is the game init

Args

ctx is the GlobalsInitContext context

Warning

Removing or calling ctx:call() will do nothing because if you were able to override Globals::init entirely the game would crash

HookFunction("Globals::init", function(ctx)
    print("Hello game")
end)
