Oolite Bulletins

Sorry - I should have checked. Is Star Trek on, or off, the table? "Miranda, don't go up there!" It's not science-fiction, but all this talk of rock crevices and such has put me in mind of Picnic at Hanging Rock . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picnic_at_Hanging_Rock_(film) The interjectio...

But, vis-a-vis your comment on the MFDs above, I usually have 12.

Now compatible with TWELVE (12) MFDs.

this.$sendMessageTimer = function $sendMessageTimer () { var p = player.ship; var stn = system.mainStation; var dist = p.position.distanceTo(stn.position); if (dist < stn.scannerRange) { // only send a message if the player is within scanner range if (p.alertCondition != 3) { // only send if the pl...

Nice tries, but I don't think either quite meets the prompt. I find your lack of faith disturbing. OK - That, on the other hand, would be a valid answer if you added the source... What "source"? I was merely commenting on your lack of faith. But, if I'm welcome to join in your game, I'd p...

Is this creating a variable called _alienVisa in the global namespace/scope/terminology-you-prefer, not restricted to your world script? this.startUp = function() { _alienVisa = 0; // set jump restrictions } If yes, then why? If not, then insightfulize me, please, I've apparently forgotten how varia...

So, we might have four, or five, valid responses . Well, that looks like five, and as though ffutures provided the fifth. Again, my sincere apologies for blundering into here and upsetting the smooth running of things. How do things proceed from here? Is the Golden Poisoned Chalice of Destiny a per...

I added buying and selling. You've written "right" and "left", and I think you might have them mixed up. I'm not sure. That's how it should be. You are correct, I beg your pardon. I found two more: shift + arrow to buy or sell. https://wiki.alioth.net/img_auth.php/a/ad/Trading_A...

You could add:

Buy <
Sell >

in the market screen controls.

I much prefer "Status" to "Cmnd. Profile" to describe the F5 screen.

Energy bomb on the Tab key might provoke some discussion.

All I get is a screen saying, "You don't have access to this google drive."

Can anyone tell me what a Super Cobra is and are they hard to kill - I have been reading various bits and pieces and seen them mentioned a couple of times. It's an OXP ship, so you won't see one in the basic game. From memory, :lol: it's most noteworthy feature was being faster than the normal Cobr...

8 galaxies with 200+ planets each and not all of the data is writable by scripting.

Specifically, 8 x 256 = 2048, but are we sure not every property is writable by scripting? Could you give an example?

Hello, it is I, Mr Grumpy.

Did someone just ask for a user-friendly tool and receive replies including the word "regexes"?



In your heart, you know it's flat.

On youtube, I found this one, but it doesn't loop properly:-

On your computer, it will be somewhere under the Oolite "Resources" folder, as an .OGG file. It's not encrypted in any way.
