Player Run Cities Guide

 So you want to setup your own city some where.  To do this you will need certain skills
I would recommend getting to Master Politician.
 
 
With a politician who is also the mayer that has the skill of Civic Policy I can use the
command /installmissionterminal to install either one of the following mission 
terminals within the city limits.
 
You must have Martial Policy IV to place faction terminals. 

The different mission terminals you can place with in the city limits are

General Missions
Artisan Missions
Entertainer Missions
Scout Missions
Imperial Missions
Rebel Missions
 
Now when you get to Civic Policy II  on the politican tree you can use the command /recruitskilltrainer 
to place trainers within your city limits.

Commands in SWGEMU for creating items

 So there was a file a long time ago on a Google Drive called "Commands V2 - Sorted.pdf" 
I still had a copy of this file on my hard drive now the version 2.  The links no longer worked on them so 
I have updated them and called this Commands V3 - Sorted. PDF.

The latest Commands file can be found at the link bellow

Now a back up of the Information found on the Google Spreadsheet for the Lair Template
can be found at the link bellow.
 
If you want to look at the TRE files or edit tree files 
Sytner's  IFF Editor (SIE) 3.7.0.95 can be found at the link bellow
 
 

This was orginally found at  https://modthegalaxy.com/index.php?resources/sie.1/

 

Disguise your character and other characters

 
If you want to disguise your character hit F1 to target yourself or select who or what
you want to disguise first.
 
The command is 
 
Darth Vader
/setPlayerAppearance object/mobile/shared_darth_vader.iff -target
 
Battle Droid
/setPlayerAppearance object/mobile/shared_death_watch_battle_droid.iff 
 
Dark Trooper
/setPlayerAppearance object/mobile/shared_dark_trooper.iff 

Battle Droid 2
/setPlayerAppearance object/mobile/shared_death_watch_s_battle_droid_01.iff

Dressed Rodian Male
/setPlayerAppearance object/mobile/shared_dressed_rebel_scout_rodian_male_01.iff

3CP0
/setPlayerAppearance object/mobile/shared_3po_protocol.iff

I have uploaded a list of the shared objects here that should work I won't guartee that
they all work.



 Now there are a few restrictions here as to what you can use this command on it MUST start 
with shared_ if it does not you can not use the /setPlayerApperance on it. 
 
Reset Apperance 
 
To reset yourself or whoever it is you have set as another item just target that player or if 
it yourself hit F1 and type in /setPlayerAppearance.
 
If you just type in /setPlayerAppearance with nothing after it then it resets the appearance. 
 

There is a really good website about some of the commands located at 
 
Warning: Some of this information on this site seems to be out of date. 

 

Creating Tanigable Objects 
 
So if you want to spawn an item say a Blue Frog to carry with you type the following. 

/object createitem object/tangible/terminal/terminal_character_builder.iff
 
Speeder Bike
/object createitem object/tangible/deed/vehicle_deed/speederbike_deed.iff

Here are some of the other Vechicles 

/object createitem object/tangible/deed/vehicle_deed/jetpack_deed.iff
/object createitem object/tangible/deed/vehicle_deed/landspeeder_av21_deed.iff
/object createitem object/tangible/deed/vehicle_deed/landspeeder_x31_deed.iff
/object createitem object/tangible/deed/vehicle_deed/landspeeder_x34_deed.iff
/object createitem object/tangible/deed/vehicle_deed/speederbike_deed.iff
/object createitem object/tangible/deed/vehicle_deed/speederbike_flash_deed.iff
/object createitem object/tangible/deed/vehicle_deed/speederbike_swoop_deed.iff
/object createitem object/tangible/deed/vehicle_deed/vehicle_deed_base.iff
/object createitem object/tangible/deed/vehicle_deed/vehicular_prototype_bike_deed.iff
/object createitem object/tangible/deed/vehicle_deed/vehicular_prototype_deed.iff


A list of the different tanigable objects can be seen at 
 
A list of create objects can be see at: SWGEmu object createitem Command Reference


Spawn a character builder AKA Blue Frog at your curent location

Now a bit of a different command if you want to spawn a Blue Frog at

your current location type in /object characterbuilder 

Warning:  This will spawn the Blue Frog terminal where ever you are standing in fron
of you so be sure you are standing in the right position prior to using this command.

If you need to move the Blue Frog or any item you can use the /move and /rotate command
IE: /move forward 25
 
/move forward 1-500
/move back 1-500
/move up 1-500
/move down 1-500
/rotate left 1-180
/rotate right 1-180  

/movefurniture up 10
/movefurniture down 10
/movefurniture up 5
/movefurniture down 5
/movefurniture up 1
/movefurniture down 1 

Creating Items from the loot table. 


To create an object from the loot table you can see a full list of loot table items bellow

The command to create and object from the loot table is 

/object createloot krayt_tissue_rare 500

/object createloot krayt_dragon_pearl 500

/object createloot power_crystals 500

/object createloot color_crystals 500

Ok so how do you get the name of the items you can create? 

It is actually pretty easy I will use the krayt dragon pearl as an example. 

 So you look at the lua file  for example at this location 

https://git.swgemu.com/swgemu/Core3/src/branch/unstable/MMOCoreORB/bin/scripts/loot/groups/creature/krayt_pearls.lua

You will see a line that says something like this 

{itemTemplate = "krayt_dragon_pearl", weight = 10000000}

So your item name is  krayt_dragon_pearl 

And to create the item type in the following: 

/object createloot krayt_dragon_pearl 500

 

Or on some of the items you will see a name something like this I will use the Gurk King hide

as an example here.

https://git.swgemu.com/swgemu/Core3/src/branch/unstable/MMOCoreORB/bin/scripts/loot/items/creature/gurk_king_hide.lua

addLootItemTemplate("gurk_king_hide", gurk_king_hide) 

so you would use the following command to get the hide

/object createloot gurk_king_hide 500

 
Generating crafted Items
 
 
So if you want to generate a crafted item you can do it in the following way.
 
/generateCraftedItem <server script path> [quantity] [template number]
 
For example to generate a  refined crystal pack you would use the following command:

/generateCraftedItem object/draft_schematic/weapon/lightsaber/lightsaber_refined_crystal_pack 1 500

For a full list of the server script paths and what can be generated look at

Getting Started

This is a guide for if you are running a SWGEMU
development enviroment.

If you don't have a development enviroment
already running see the link bellow

SWG Development Enviroment Install Guide
 
This guide assumes that you already have the
enviroment compiled and up and running already.

To make yourself an admin your client must be
setup properly and your client must allow
you to also be admin.

The whole folder where I put all of the documents
can be seen at the following location.
SWGEMU Dev Help Files

In your SWGEMU directory in the user.cfg you
must put this in the user.cfg file under
[ClientGame]

[ClientGame]
0fd345d9 = true

A typical user.cfg can be found at the link bellow if
you are having a hard time with this.

user.cfg file

Now for the different admin levels for /setGodMode to set god mode
on another player you use this for the admin levels.

/setGodMode <name> <admin level> | on | off>

15 = Administrator
14 = Developer
13 = Quality assurance (QA)
12 = Community Support Representative (CSR)
11 = Event Coordinator (EC)
10 = Event Coordinator Intern (ECI)
9 = Community Support Intern (CSI)
8 = CT
7 = CC
6 = Tester
1 = Intern
0 = Non-privileged player (the default admin_level)


If this is a NEW server you need to create an account
first but NOT a character create the account log in
and create an account but NOT a a character again ONLY
create the ACCOUNT then log out and modify the account and
set it to 15 for administrator.

I would higly recommend using phpmyadmin

If you are on Debian 11 / 12 you can use the command

apt-get install phpmyadmin

If you can't and you really want to do this from the command
line this is how you will do it. 

YOU WILL HAVE TO EDIT THE COMMANDS BELLOW  this assumes
your username for the SWGEMU Database is swgemu if it is
not you will have to change that.

make sure you have mariadb already installed you should
have it installed already by this point.

If you don't install mariadb server and client

apt-get install mariadb-server mariadb-client

If you don't have a fully installed eviroment yet then
see SWG Development Enviroment Install Guide

at the command prompt type in the following to startup
mysql

mysql -u swgemu -p
Enter password: <MYSQL_PASSWORD>

Where it says <MYSQL_PASSWORD> put in your mysql
password for the database that you should already have
setup.

Now at the MYSQL prompt you will want to issue a command
like this.  DO NOT RUN this!  SOME OF THESE COMMANDS MAY
NEED TO BE CHANGED to reflect the database name and your account name.
do not just blindly copy this.
 
You need to change the database to the correct database if  you didn't use swgemu
for your database name.

show databases;
use swgemu;
select * from accounts;
update accounts set admin_level='15' where username='Your_account_name';
flush privileges;
exit

Now log back into your account and create a character if you create the
character before it will NOT get admin rights you had to do all of that
first. 
 
You should see "GOD MODE" come across your screen when you log into
your server if everything was successfu when you log into your character on the 
admin account. 
 
 
Also if you ever need to generate a new encrypted password for a user you
can do the following. I would make sure the server is shut down prior to modifying
the database like this. 
 
You need to have coreutils installed on debian 11 / 12 for this to work for sha256sum.
 
apt-get install coreutils 

So in order to generate the new password you need a few pieces of information first. 

you need your DBSECRET which is at the following location
~/workspace/Core3/MMOCoreORB/bin/conf/config.lua

It will look something like this you set this when you first installed the server or should have.

It will look like this 

DBSecret = "TheBigSecret$$$Word666;", -- Change this! This value should be unique and of reasonable length.

You will need everhing between the "" in your config.lua

Copy this to a notepad or something.

Now the SALT is a randomly generated length of characters and is in your mysql database
to get that you will need to do the following. 
 
You are going to have to change some of this to relect your database name and username  this assumes your username is swgemu and your database is also called swgemu if this isn't the case change it.

mysql -u swgemu -p
Enter password: <MYSQL_PASSWORD>

Enter your password for your mysql user when it says for Enter password. 
 
show databases;
use swgemu;
select * from accounts;
update accounts set password='password' where username='Account_Name';
flush privileges;
exit
 
at the very end it should show you the salt in the very last row. 
copy that to the notepad again as well you will need the whole set
of characters from there under salt for the specific user you are trying
to set the password for.


Now you are finally ready to generate your new password.

 
echo -n '<DBSECRET><SWGEMU_USER_PASSWORD><SALT>' | sha256sum

DO NOT put in the <> it ends up running all 3 together so it is one big line
 
EXAMPLE: 
 echo -n 'TheBigSecret$$$Word666;MYNEWPASSWORDGOESHEREcb4534ad56D0055e8083a5dd2ea411fe' | sha256sum
 
It will give you the encrypted new password for whatever you entered copy
this to a notepad or some where you will need this later. 
 
 
Then I use phpmyadmin and I can go into the accounts table and edit the
password in the accounts table


Now if you want to do this from the command line do the following again this will
have to be changed do not just blindly copy this and expect it to work unless
you used all the same information as me.  This assumes you used the username 
of swgemu for the mysql username and your datbase is called mysql.


mysql -u swgemu -p
Enter password: <MYSQL_PASSWORD>

Enter your password for your mysql user when it says for Enter password. 
 
At the MYSQL prompt enter these commands subsituting in the correct Account_Name for
the user you want to reset and the password which was generated earlier that I told you to copy
to a note pad that gos where it says password. 

show databases;
use swgemu;
select * from accounts;
update accounts set password='password' where username='Account_Name';
flush privileges;
exit
