AyeZeeBB 8444553402 Throwdowns: the throwdown kit, so a mode is a plugin and the SDK knows no particular mode
Plugins register modes (card, replaces, order, flag, players) and publish documents through
reskate.throwdowns.ui: the setup page, the waiting card, HUD slots themed on the game's HUD_<theme>_*
widgets, the match panel, flags and match restrictions. SmokeyDawg58's native plumbing
(throwdown_menu.cpp and its .inl files) renders them and posts throwdown_ui events back. kit::flag
is the one native flag registration. General services added for it: reskate.files, reskate.ui.dialog,
reskate.skater push/hold/bone_cam, reskate.camera.pad_flight, reskate.physics competition,
reskate.session.world, reskate.tricks feed/gesture, and world entities.

His ten modes are now Lua in his plugin: the rules, referee and wire (td/rules, referee, wire), and
every page and HUD document (td/ui*.lua). Extension/Modes and reskate.modes are gone, along with
every race and 1-UP branch in the SDK. The plugin test drives each mode through kit events.

A native setup page is never written to while it closes into flag placement: its rows are not
republished, the stock page is put back once the exit is over, and the stock Players slider is left
alone while a plugin flag is out. This fixes the crashes on the Deathrace button and on 1-UP's
Confirm.

Test plugins

Two plugins that check ReSkate's plugin host (Extension/Plugins). To try one in game, copy its folder into the game's Mods folder and open the console.

  • reskate-test calls every plugin API and says what worked. ptest all runs every check, ptest <module> one module, and ptest list names them. It prints only the failures and a summary line. Each API ReSkate adds gets a module in plugin/checks/. It's also the example to copy when making a plugin.
  • reskate-hostile attacks the sandbox on purpose, one attack per command. hostile list names them with what should happen. An attack that gets it stopped is expected: plugin on reskate-hostile starts it again for the next one. Any line starting with ESCAPED is a hole in the sandbox.

Both also run without the game, in dingosdk_plugin_tests (DINGOSDK_BUILD_PLUGIN_TESTS).

Ports

Features that were built into ReSkate, as mods of their own. Each has its own checks (<command> test) that dingosdk_plugin_tests runs too, and its own page in the ReSkate menu's PLUGINS section.

  • road-rash: bails leave marks that build up, worn over the outfit with reskate.outfit. It needs the Road Rash items mod. roadrash, roadrash heal, roadrash bails 20.
  • board-break: a hard slam can snap the board, drawn with reskate.board. It ships inside the Board Break deck pack. boardbreak, boardbreak snap mid. Which deck every board has stays in ReSkate (boarddeck).
  • fpv-drone: the FPV drone, flown from the free camera with the keyboard, a pad or a radio. fpv fly, fpv follow.
  • hall-of-meat: skate. 3's Hall of Meat: bails show the bones they hurt on an x-ray of the skater (reskate.skater.xray, d:skeleton) and score a Meat card drawn with skate.'s own pictures (d:game_image). hallofmeat 0|1.
  • grind-exits: LT / RT in a grind pick the side of the pop (reskate.skater.grind_exit, reskate.input.hide). grindexit status.
