KSP Time Control Mod. Contribute to ntwest/TimeControl development by creating an account on GitHub. TimeControl is without question the most flexible timesheet system on the market. In virtually every aspect of TimeControl's design, flexibility is a primary goal. TimeControl's hallmark is the ability to deliver a different aspect of a solution to different parts of the organization - in other words - being able to adapt to many conditions. TimeControl Speeds up or slows down Mindustry. Supports x0.25 x16. Some buttons can be pressed twice to alternate between different modes. The following tables describe the node properties. The column headed M indicates whether the property is mandatory (marked with an asterisk if you must enter a value when no default is defined); the column headed C indicates whether the property is configurable (you can change the value when you add the message flow to the BAR file to deploy it).

Long name (short name)	Argument types	Properties
animCurveNames(acn)	boolean
When 'showKeys' is not 'none', querying this flag willreturn the names of all the animCurves for which keyframeticks are being displayed. Query returns string[].
animLayerFilterOptions(alf)	string
Specifies whether a filter is to be applied when displaying animation layers.If so, the options can be 'allAffecting' (no filter), 'active' (only the activelayers on the object will be displayed) and 'animLayerEditor' (the settings willbe taken from the animation layer editor).
animLayerShowWeight(asw)	boolean
Specifies or queries whether weights are to be shown when displaying animation layers.
annotation(ann)	string
Annotate the control with an extra string value.
backgroundColor(bgc)	[float, float, float]
The background color of the control. The arguments correspondto the red, green, and blue color components. Each component rangesin value from 0.0 to 1.0. When setting backgroundColor, the background is automaticallyenabled, unless enableBackground is also specified with a falsevalue.
beginScrub(bs)	boolean
Set this widget up for sound scrubbing.Subsequent changes to current time will resultin 'sound scrubbing' behavior, until the'-endScrub' command is issued for this widget.
currentFrameColor(cfc)	[float, float, float, float]
This flag is used to specify the rgba color of thecurrent frame overlay rectangle in the timeControl.
defineTemplate(dt)	string
Puts the command in a mode where any other flags and arguments areparsed and added to the command template specified in the argument.They will be used as default arguments in any subsequentinvocations of the command when templateName is set as thecurrent template.
displaySound(ds)	boolean
Turn sound display off. Query returns int.
docTag(dtg)	string
Add a documentation flag to the control. The documentation flaghas a directory structure.(e.g., -dt render/multiLister/createNode/material)
dragCallback(dgc)	script
Adds a callback that is called when the middle mouse buttonis pressed. The MEL version of the callback is of the form: global proc string[] callbackName(string $dragControl, int $x, int $y, int $mods) The proc returns a string array that is transferred to the drop site.By convention the first string in the array describes the user settablemessage type. Controls that are application defined drag sources mayignore the callback. $mods allows testing for the key modifiers CTRL andSHIFT. Possible values are 0 No modifiers, 1 SHIFT, 2 CTRL,3 CTRL + SHIFT. In Python, it is similar, but there are two ways to specify the callback. Therecommended way is to pass a Python function object as the argument. In thatcase, the Python callback should have the form: def callbackName( dragControl, x, y, modifiers ): The values of these arguments are the same as those for the MEL version above. The other way to specify the callback in Python is to specify a string to beexecuted. In that case, the string will have the values substituted into itvia the standard Python format operator. The format values are passed in adictionary with the keys 'dragControl', 'x', 'y', 'modifiers'. The'dragControl' value is a string and the other values are integers (eg thecallback string could be 'print '%(dragControl)s %(x)d %(y)d %(modifiers)d')
dropCallback(dpc)	script
Adds a callback that is called when a drag and dropoperation is released above the drop site. The MEL version of the callback isof the form: global proc callbackName(string $dragControl, string $dropControl, string $msgs[], int $x, int $y, int $type) The proc receives a string array that is transferred from the drag source.The first string in the msgs array describes the user defined message type.Controls that are application defined drop sites may ignore thecallback. $type can have values of 1 Move, 2 Copy, 3 Link. In Python, it is similar, but there are two ways to specify the callback. Therecommended way is to pass a Python function object as the argument. In thatcase, the Python callback should have the form: def pythonDropTest( dragControl, dropControl, messages, x, y, dragType ): The values of these arguments are the same as those for the MEL version above. The other way to specify the callback in Python is to specify a string to beexecuted. In that case, the string will have the values substituted into itvia the standard Python format operator. The format values are passed in adictionary with the keys 'dragControl', 'dropControl', 'messages', 'x', 'y','type'. The 'dragControl' value is a string and the other values are integers(eg the callback string could be'print '%(dragControl)s %(dropControl)s %(messages)r %(x)d %(y)d %(type)d')

Returns string representing the currently highlightedrange visible on the time slider. A range from 10 to 20would be returned as '10:20'. When there's no rangevisible on the time slider, the query returns a rangespanning the current time: for example, '10:11'. Thesevalues are in the current time unit.
rangeArray(ra)	boolean
Returns a float array representing the currently highlightedrange visible on the time slider. A range from 10 to 20would be returned as { 10.0, 20.0 }.
