Oolite Bulletins

Wohoo! I just received my ebook from Fantastic Books. Great! :D Congratulations, Drew, for going through with this, and finishing marvelously! I thoroughly enjoyed following you on this exciting ride, I'm happy for you, and—last but not least—I wish you many, many, many readers for Elite: Reclamatio...

Quite. Not like there was a link in the wiki entry suggesting that killit missiles might be complementary with this weapon anything.

Ah! I wasn't aware, because the Wiki was down yesterday when I posted this. In fact, klicking on my own link was how I found out that it was down.

The Elite Wiki seems to be down. Does anybody have more information?

Yes, in this way: ship.explode();

Technically this oxp is a joke which was born because it was so simple to made. A good background story for this weapon need more effort than the whole code.

 Sounds familiar.

It's touching to see the Flying Dutchman getting some love.

… whilst we're talking about planets and the ASC can we not add extra spawned planets to the ASC? I know there's an OXP that does this but I think this should be part of the core game as well, I'm not so sure about this, because the core game doesn't have extra spawned planets, and I'm not too keen...

Former US President George W Bush, who has said he is admittedly "not a great painter", will open a public exhibit of his works on Saturday. What can I say! Perhaps something along the lines of: "What a coincidence! He isn't a great president, either. The public exhibit of that can s...

Everyone is talking about eating them... Does that mean they turn into food?

Now there's a thought - a possible modification of the Ship's Cat OXP to deal with trumbles?

Nope. Trumbles cannot be removed by script/OXP (and that's deliberately so).

Is it just me or is there influence from Griff's Coriolis in the Frontier's station exterior design? My first thought was that Griff's actually looks better I wouldn't necessarily assume a direct influence. If you take the Elite Coriolis, stick with the basic shape, and ramp it up by putting lights...

How are those?

I think "rather dark" is an apt summary.

I also think I'm gonna pass on this one. For me Oolite is a visual game. Making things only barely visible kind of defeats the purpose. (Personal opinion only.)

I think Oolite and the people involved with it is the solution....tell me I am right! I think you're wrong, and for more than one reason. The challenge invites game designers to envision an interactive experience that encourages space exploration and at the same time captures comprehensive real-wor...

1) Stop the navy offering amnesties every ten or so jumps Amnesty offers aren't made after a certain amount of jumps, but in certain systems (and in those systems only). To be precise: the offer is made in 5% of all Anarchy systems and 2% of all non-Anarchy systems (2% of all non-Anarchy systems me...

Hi, SARR, and first of all welcome to The Friendliest Boards This Side Of Riedquat™! :D There is a slow turnover in the shipyards, and it is possible to have an empty shipyard. In this case I'd suggest you fly around a little, visit some other high TL systems, and when you come back to Ensorus in a ...

You're welcome!
