To do list
This area is a to-do list for keeping the VO-wiki up to date, and likely isn't important to anyone else
- http://vo-wiki.com/wiki/Newsletters
- Update planet, sector, and station images
- Need to ; template is Aputik_Mining **(And why is that breaking? its url to Category:Stations). considering using Armand's_Dilligence for station trade table though
- Add page regarding new scrap mechanics (first added 1.8.426) when they finish polishing it up and release it properly
- add info to stub station pages like Arta_Gateway
- Remove "Reserve item" list from stations; it isn't relevant to gameplay, and doesn't reflect actual trade routes
- Clean up Plug-ins and add link to Voupr.
- Add vo-wiki plugin installation; reduce number of outbound links.
- Fix bot listings in places like Sedina
- Change how tridents and Goliaths are listed on the Manufacturing page
- Add to Options
- Attempt to find out why accessing the Special:Watchlist breaks browsers that aren't mobile
Plugin Page Revamp
Ever since the underlying Lua interface code was opened up to VO's player base, Vendetta Online features the possibility for users to write their own plug-ins, affecting everything from the game's interface to in-game communication to game mechanics.
Installing Plugins
Installation instructions vary by platform, but in general, installing plugins involves copying files from the archive you download to <game install directory>/plugins/. If a plugin is Neoloader-compatible, it may need to be enabled in-game as well, depending on the user's configuration.
Platform | Common install directory |
---|---|
Windows | C:\Program Files (x86)\Vendetta |
Linux | /home/<user>/.vendetta |
Mac | <special> |
Android*** | /android/data/com.guildsoftware.vendetta/files |
iOS | <special> |
VR | Depends on device; usually follows android but requires headset to be connected and explorable by connected PC. |
Mac users will right click the vendetta app in their dock and explore their application files (Verify this is how it works?) iOS users need to attach their device to a computer running iTunes, and sync a plugins folder into the game. (attach link explaining this) Android users need to use an updated file manager such as NMM or X-plore on versions 12 and below. For Android 13+, pilots will need to connect their device to a computer to access the /android/data directory. This is due to scoped storage permissions.
Creating your own Plugins
VO Lua API that can be used for creating plugins can be found at [1].
Available Plugins
This page tracks many well-known plugins found across the public repositories listed below. It is not meant to be an encompassing list, but serves to track some of the most popular plugins used by many pilots.
Public Plugin Repositories:
- Vendetta Online Unofficial Plugin Repository (VOUPR) is the original plugin repository, originally maintained by Calder.
- NexusMods hosts many mods for multiple games, and includes its own section for Vendetta Online.
