Oolite Bulletins

Specular is the amount of light reflected, gloss is the sharpness of the reflection or, in other words, how concentrated the light reflection is. Refer to the second image in the first post for an example of what 75% specular looks like at various gloss levels. The cause of the diffuse color reduct...

I switched ubuntu-latest to ubuntu-22.04 in the github autobuild script. The release should be out shortly. Please test if you get a chance and let me know if it's now OK.

I still reckon if we're going to bundle libraries, they should all be figured out during build, so current versions get bundled, not stale ones. Whatever it is that needs to be done we'll need a contribution (PR, documentation or something like that) from someone who knows what they're doing with L...

Looking at the github build logs, I see that build 5e1c242 was built on Linux with libgnustep-base1.28, while today's build was made with libgunstep-base1.29. I think the problem is not related to the JS memory change, but most likely to the github runners' gnustep version change.

Does build Oolite 1.91.0.7647-241230-5e1c242 run OK on Linux?

Oh wow. Any logs from the crashing build? If we cannot sort it out, I'm afraid we'll have to revert the change and return to 32MB JS runtime size.

Might that be a partial solution to the applemac sound problems? I found that that Getafix’s last offering seemed to work just fine in a “strict game” but crashed with my usual OXP cocktail. I don't think that's the solution to the Mac sound problem, but it is easy to test it. Just add the "js...

New v1.91 build with 256MB default JS runtime size has been published, available to download from https://github.com/OoliteProject/oolite ... 14-3e14af8

And there we have it: 03:43:23.709 [script.javaScript.error.outOfMemory]: ***** JavaScript error (BountySystem_MostWanted 0.16): out of memory ... 03:48:48.370 [script.javaScript.error.outOfMemory]: ***** JavaScript error (StationDockControl 1.1.28): out of memory ... 03:48:58.782 [script.javaScript...

I think your problem might be realted to memory allocated to the Javascript engine running out due to having 534 OXPs installed, which is why I am asking for Latest.log after a crash. If this is indeed the reason, there will be an entry to that effect at the end of the log. Copy/pasting the log is f...

Can you please post the Latest.log immediately after a crash?

I think you asked me that earlier. I'm abit of a noob sometimes, and might need step by step instructions. Sure, here is what you need to do: 1. Go to C:\Oolite\oolite.app, and right click on the oolite.exe file. https://i.postimg.cc/44zvMd1s/image.png 2. Select Properties. You will see this dialog...

BTW, have you unchecked the Windows 8 compatibility from oolite.exe's file properties? You don't want that checked if you are on Windows 10.

SO should I have found that necessary? Only if you liked the way it looked. But if you believe this to be the reason for your crashes then you did well to remove it. For the record, it is very unlikely that this was the culprit. I have been using Zygo's OXPs for years and I never had a problem beca...
