================================================================================
Introduction

For a long time Oolite players have been receiving mission screens that array themselves as an email message. This makes sense in-game, as you would imagine a lot of communication between the player and NPC's in the game world would take place inside the bounds of an email system. However, while the conceit of an email system has been present, many other aspects of a true email system are lacking. In particular:

1. The ability to re-read emails after you receive them
2. The ability to analyse the trace of an email (ie, the path the email took to reach the player).

The Email System OXP attempts to address these shortcomings and provide (as much as possible) a true, in-game email system.

Big thanks go to Wildeblood who pushed me not to compromise on functionality. Thanks to Norby who is always willing to contribute valuable ideas to any project. Thanks to Disembodied for some wonderful suggestions on new parts of the system. Thanks to Astrobe for his help with the escape pod emails. And huge thanks to cim, who is an amazing help with any and all technical questions relating to Oolite.

********************************************************************************
Standard Operations

The OXP adds a new option on the "Interfaces" (F4) screen called "Email system". The number of unread emails will be displayed here.

After opening the email system, the player will see their inbox, sorted with the most recently received email at the top. The inbox view shows the senders name or email address, the date the email was sent, and the subject line of the email. A "!" symbol beside the email indicates it is unread.

At the bottom of the screen are the functions the player can select. They are:

	Go to next page: If the inbox flows to multiple pages, this option will go to the next page.
	Go to previous page: If the inbox flows to multiple pages, this option will go to the next page.
	Mark all items read: This option will remove the unread "!" flag from all emails in your inbox.
	Delete all read items: This option will delete all emails that have been read and are not waiting for a response from the player.
	Delete all items: This will delete all emails that are not waiting for a response from the player.
	Exit email system: This will exit the email system and return the player to the Interfaces F4 screen.

To open an email, use the up and down arrow keys to move the highlight bar to the desired email and press enter. Opening an email will automatically flag it as read.

When an email is opened, at the top of the screen will be the senders name or email address, the date the email was sent, and the subject line of the email.

Below this is the content of the email.

At the bottom of the screen are functions the player can perform on this email. They are:
	Close email: This will close the email and return the player to the inbox. The email will now be flagged as "read".
	Close email and open next: This will close the current email and open the next email in the inbox.
	Close and delete email: This will close the email and delete it from the inbox if there are no response required by the player.
	Show trace: This will open the email trace, which will display the path the email took to reach the player.

Some emails can require the player to make a response. When an email requires a response, there will be additional options below the "Show trace" option. The format of these options will be "Send 'option' response." For instance, an email could ask the player "Do you want to join our team?". In this case the options might be:

	Send 'Yes' response
	Send 'No' response

The player can select either of these options and press enter to send the response.

When an email has previously had a response sent, additional text will be added to the email body, similar to an email trail. Continuing the example above, if the player has response "Yes", the email display might end up looking like this:

	From:	   Commander Curruthers
	Sent:	   2084504:05:16:02
	Subject:   Request for assistance
	-----------------------------------------------------------------------
	Commander Jameson,

	Her Majesty is in need of your assistance. Thargoid incursions are on
	the increase, and we need your help in the battle. Would you be willing
	to join us in the fight against this rising tide of evil?

	-----------------------------------------------------------------------
	Reply sent: 2084504:05:29:42
	Reply:

	Commander Curruthurs, it would be an honour.

********************************************************************************
External Interfaces

Other OXP's can make use of the email system by calling the $createEmail function.

================================================================================
** $createEmail**
The $createEmail function accepts a single object, that can have the following properties:
Required fields:
	sender				(text) Name of person sending email
	subject				(text) Subject line of email
	date				(time in seconds) the global.clock time the email was sent
Optional fields:
	message				(text) Body text of email
	sentFrom			(int) ID of Planet that is the source of the email. Defaults to the current planet.
						If the optional stopTrace flag is set, this ID will be the last planet in the trace.
	isRead				(boolean) Setting this to true will add the email to the inbox as if its been read by the player.
						This might be useful if you have displayed the message to the  player using "addMessageToArrivalReport" or a mission screen,
						and want to add  a corresponding email, which, because the player has seen it, should be flagged as read.
	expiryDate			(time in seconds) The time this email will expire and be deleted (if no expiryText is set). Alternatively, use the following params
	expiryDays			(int) number of days past the current date when the email will expire
	expiryHours			(int) number of hours past the current date when the email will expire
	expiryMinutes		(int) number of minutes past the current date when the email will expire
	expirySeconds		(int) number of seconds past the current date when the email will expire
						Note: the above expiry options can be combined: to expire an email 2 hours and 30 minutes in the future, use expiryHours:2, expiryMinutes:30
	expiryText			(text) Text to display in the header when the email expired. If this text is not supplied, the email will be deleted when it expires.
	expiryOptions		(csv text) The response option numbers to display when the email expires.  eg "3,4" would mean that option numbers 3 and 4 will be visible when the email expires.
	allowExpiryCancel	(boolean) Indicates whether the option to cancel the expiry notice will be avaiable to the player. Defaults to true if not supplied.
	stopTrace			(boolean) Indicates that the routing ticket is corrupt and a trace is only partial. The trace will terminate at the "sentFrom" planet. Defaults to false.
	traceRoute			(csv text) Allows the trace route information to be fully specified. If not specified, the route will be all planets between sentFrom and the current planet using the fastest route.
	forceResponse		(boolean) Indicates that the player must select a response before the email can be closed. Defaults to false.
	option1				(object) Response option 1
	option2				(object) Response option 2
	option3				(object) Response option 3
	option4				(object) Response option 4

The Response options have the following format:
Required fields:
	display				(text) Text to display to the user. Shown as "Send 'displayText' response".
	reply				(text) The text to be appended to the body of the email as the reply from the player.
	script				(text) The name of the worldScript where the callback function resides
	callback			(text) The name of the function to call
Optional fields:
	parameter			(object) The object to pass to the callback function.

********************************************************************************
Examples

In is most simplest form, sending an email is done as follows

	var w = worldScripts.EmailSystem;
	w.$createEmail(
		{sender:"Captain Solo",					// senders name or email address
		subject:"I've got a bad feeling about this",		// subject line
		date:global.clock.seconds,				// the time the email was sent
		message:"I thought they smelled bad on the outside."	// body text of the email
		});

In this form, there is no response required by the player. Also, the email trace will show that the email was sent from the current planet. To expand this example, lets add a longer trace.

	var w = worldScripts.EmailSystem;
	w.$createEmail(
		{sender:"Captain Solo",					// senders name or email address
		subject:"I've got a bad feeling about this",		// subject line
		date:global.clock.seconds,				// the time the email was sent
		message:"I thought they smelled bad on the outside.",	// body text of the email
		sentFrom:14						// id of planet from which the email was sent.
		});

Now, when the player opens the email trace, the system will show all the planets between planet ID 14 and the players current planet. We can force a particular trace on this email by adding in a comma-separated list of items into the traceRoute parameter.

	var w = worldScripts.EmailSystem;
	w.$createEmail(
		{sender:"Captain Solo",					// senders name or email address
		subject:"I've got a bad feeling about this",		// subject line
		date:global.clock.seconds,				// the time the email was sent
		message:"I thought they smelled bad on the outside.",	// body text of the email
		traceRoute:"Lave,Isinor,Endor,Tatooine,Hoth"		// csv list of items to appear in the email trace.
		});

The trace is ordered from the last to the first. That is, the end point of the trace (where the player receives the message) is at the start of the list. Note that we don't have to include planets - we can include anything we like in the trace when entered like this.

We might want to make it appear as though the trace is corrupted, which might be useful in some circumstances. To do this, set the stopTrace flag.

	var w = worldScripts.EmailSystem;
	w.$createEmail(
		{sender:"Captain Solo",					// senders name or email address
		subject:"I've got a bad feeling about this",		// subject line
		date:global.clock.seconds,				// the time the email was sent
		message:"I thought they smelled bad on the outside.",	// body text of the email
		sentFrom:14,						// id of planet from which the email was sent.
		stopTrace:true						// the trace is now corrupt
		});

What this will do is show the trace from the players current planet to planet ID 14, but the message "Routing ticket corrupt" will be displayed, which would indicate to the player that there was more to the trace but it's now hidden.

All of these examples will add an email to the inbox, but there are no options attached. They are simple emails the player can view and delete as required. An example of an email with some options is below:

	var w = worldScripts.EmailSystem;
	w.$createEmail(
		{sender:"The Chaser",				// senders name or email address
		subject:"Something for you do look at...",	// subject line
		date:global.clock.seconds,			// the time the email was sent
		message:"Would you like to play a game?",	// body text of the email
		option1:{display:"Yes", reply:"Sure. Why not?", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$AcceptChallenge"},
		option2:{display:"No", reply:"Sorry. Too busy right now.", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$DeclineChallenge"}
		});

In this example, the player is asked if they want to play a game in the body of the email. Then, two options are configured. The first option will be shown to the player as "Yes", the second as "No."

If the player selects the "Yes" option, the text "Sure. Why not?" will be appended to the body of the email as the reply, and the $AcceptChallenge function will be called in the EmailSystemDemo worldScript.

If the player selects the "No" option, the text "Sorry. Too busy right now. And I don't play games." will be appended to the body of the email as the reply, and the $DeclineChallenge function will be called in the EmailSystemDemo worldScript.

A paramater can be passed to the callback function by using the "param" parameter:

	var w = worldScripts.EmailSystem;
	w.$createEmail(
		{sender:"The Chaser",				// senders name or email address
		subject:"Something for you do look at...",	// subject line
		date:global.clock.seconds,			// the time the email was sent
		message:"Would you like to play a game?",	// body text of the email
		option1:{display:"Yes", reply:"Sure. Why not?", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$AcceptChallenge", parameter:"mydata"},
		option2:{display:"No", reply:"Sorry. Too busy right now.", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$DeclineChallenge"}
		});

Emails can be set to expire by using expiryDate, expiryDays, expiryHours, expiryMinutes and expirySeconds. In this example, the email will expire in 2 minutes and 30 seconds. When the email expires it will simply be deleted from the users inbox.

	var w = worldScripts.EmailSystem;
	w.$createEmail(
		{sender:"The Chaser",				// senders name or email address
		subject:"Something for you do look at...",	// subject line
		date:global.clock.seconds,			// the time the email was sent
		message:"Would you like to play a game?",	// body text of the email
		expiryMinutes:2,
		expirySeconds:30,
		option1:{display:"Yes", reply:"Sure. Why not?", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$AcceptChallenge", parameter:"mydata"},
		option2:{display:"No", reply:"Sorry. Too busy right now.", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$DeclineChallenge"}
		});

An email with an expiry date will present the user with an option to "Cancel expiry". That will remove the expiry date from the email. If you want to remove that option from the player, use the allowExpiryCancel flag,

	var w = worldScripts.EmailSystem;
	w.$createEmail(
		{sender:"The Chaser",				// senders name or email address
		subject:"Something for you do look at...",	// subject line
		date:global.clock.seconds,			// the time the email was sent
		message:"Would you like to play a game?",	// body text of the email
		expiryMinutes:2,
		expirySeconds:30,
		allowExpiryCancel:false,
		option1:{display:"Yes", reply:"Sure. Why not?", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$AcceptChallenge", parameter:"mydata"},
		option2:{display:"No", reply:"Sorry. Too busy right now.", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$DeclineChallenge"}
		});

You might not want the email to be deleted, but to remain in an expired state. To do this, set the expiryText option:

	var w = worldScripts.EmailSystem;
	w.$createEmail(
		{sender:"The Chaser",				// senders name or email address
		subject:"Something for you do look at...",	// subject line
		date:global.clock.seconds,			// the time the email was sent
		message:"Would you like to play a game?",	// body text of the email
		expiryMinutes:2,
		expirySeconds:30,
		allowExpiryCancel:false,
		expiryText:"This email has expired",
		option1:{display:"Yes", reply:"Sure. Why not?", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$AcceptChallenge", parameter:"mydata"},
		option2:{display:"No", reply:"Sorry. Too busy right now.", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$DeclineChallenge"}
		});

If you have options on the un-expired email, those options will be hidden once the email expires. However, you can add response options that are only available when the email expires using the "expiryOptions" parameter. In this expiry, option 3 has been defined as an expiry option, which will only be visible after the email expires:

	var w = worldScripts.EmailSystem;
	w.$createEmail(
		{sender:"The Chaser",				// senders name or email address
		subject:"Something for you do look at...",	// subject line
		date:global.clock.seconds,			// the time the email was sent
		message:"Would you like to play a game?",	// body text of the email
		expiryMinutes:2,
		expirySeconds:30,
		allowExpiryCancel:false,
		expiryText:"This email has expired",
		expiryOptions:"3",
		option1:{display:"Yes", reply:"Sure. Why not?", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$AcceptChallenge", parameter:"mydata"},
		option2:{display:"No", reply:"Sorry. Too busy right now.", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$DeclineChallenge"}
		option3:{display:"Too late", reply:"Sorry I didn't respond to your email in time. Can I still join in?", script:"EmailSystemDemo", callback:"$TooLate"}}
		});

================================================================================
Why should you use this system?

Oolite already has mission screens with selectable options and callbacks, so why use this system?

This OXP is *not* designed to replace mission screens and their associated methods, although it can certainly do many of the same things. Instead, the intention is to provide a way to add extra realism to the game. If your mission screen sends information to the user and formats it like an email, keep doing this. But consider adding a couple of lines of code to check for the email system and add a new email item so the player has a record of the emails they have received. They can view their historic emails for reminders of mission parameters, or to find hidden clues. They can view the email trace that could help track down a target.

The Email System can provide an additional option for OXP developers for enhancing the realism in their missions.

Third Party Equipment in Maintenance Overhaul Emails
====================================================
In general, any third party equipment items will have a "Perform diagnostics" item in the maintenance overhaul email. But it is possible to include special maintenance description items for third party equipment by following these steps.

1. Include an item in your descriptions.plist file similar to this:
	maint_EQ_YOUR_EQUIPMENT_ID = ("One or more maintenance description items");

2. Include the following code in your startUp or startUpComplete scripts:
	var g = worldScripts.GalCopAdminServices;
	if (g) g._maint_known_equip.push("EQ_YOUR_EQUIPMENT_ID");

1.1.4
- Added GalCop emails for purchasing equipment, new ships, and maintenance overhauls.

1.1.3
- Remove the %R special expansion and replaced with [nom] for better random name generation.

1.1.2
- Removed arrival report message. If you really want it, you can turn it on with a setting.
- Fixed issue with the bounty report email if the player destroys a ship with no bounty. No entry will be made in this case now.
- Added an archive limit, so that emails will automatically be start to be deleted if they have 100 emails or more.
- Added an expiry date to all the standard galcop notices.
- Simplified $createEmail object parameters.
- added a zero check on expiry time
- fixed bug where number of pages wasn't updating when deleting emails.
- spelling corrections

1.1.1
- Removed unnecessary OXP folders, combines GALCOP Admin services into main OXP, ready for OXZ publication
- Fixed bug when calling $createEmail during flight (thanks to Wildeblood for the heads up)
- Removed unnecessary option on the $createMail function
- Added message to arrival report if the player has unread emails.

1.1.0
- Fixed bug with closing a long email on a page greater than 1 and opening the next email. Thanks to Wildeblood for the bug report.
- Added ExpiryDate option (thanks to Wildeblood for the suggestion)
- Reworked the response options so that there is no need for OXP's to reconnect callback functions.
- Changed the save format in mission variables to use a single value, rather than multiple values, for emails.
- Code cleanup (thanks to Wildeblood for the pointers)

1.0.1
- Changed createEmail function call to use an object, rather than parameters.
- Added galaxy number to stored emails, which will be displayed when the player is in a galaxy other than the one they received the email in.
- fixed bug that was preventing bounty email from being sent
- fixed bug that was sending a docking clearance penalty notice when docking clearance was about to expire
- Spelling fixes
- Code cleanup

	Welcome to new galaxy emails

		- List of galactic regions
		- List of galactic routes
		- GalCop HQ's
		- RRS station HQ locations
		- Superhub locations
		- Gal Navy sector commands

	Constore emails about special deals
	Space bar emails
	Emails from revolutionists, saying "Here's the details of the conspiracy"
	Emails from Hognose Evangelists telling player about their religion
	Emails containing bargains for trade (ie "trade in Furs between X and Y for a super bargain. Offer won't last!" X will be system within 7 LY of player, Y will be within 10 LY of X.)
		maybe two different emails: 1 saying nnn commodity is really cheap at X, 1 saying demand for nnn commodity is high at Y
		have an opt in/opt out functionality
		-- seems to be similar to function in NewCargoes OXP, but might be useful as an alternative (ie. if you don't want NewCargos, you can still get market bargins)
		-- also similar to functionality in BlOomberg markets
