Oolite Bulletins

I just noted that if you rename the lasers, just the name, not the key, for example rename the "Pulse Laser" to "Light rail gun", it shows up correctly in the buy Equipment list as a light rail gun, but when you have to choose the viewport it has to occupy it says Pulse/beam/mili...

In the classic Elite the cursor could move outside short range box without being re-centered each time you entered the short range chart.. I suppose the reason for this centering is in short of a "home" button that in classic Elite re-centered the cursor at the current position. It is not ...

Yes I know the setiment exactly, though I don't think ECM would have helped you in this case. Cargo pods ain't missiles as such. Though they have been known to be used as such in other instances. I think he meant in fact that one of the cargo pods was indeed a Missile, its cyan color masked by lots...

What's going on?!

To avoid showing bounties for asteroids, we discussed this a while back.. in the bounty scanner thread..

I opened urutu_main.dat in my custom model viewer for windows, and everything seemed in order in regard to the faces. My program uses a custom parser that should be less than robust for faulty dat files, so im not sure it is the dat file. My model viewer can be found here.. http://www.box.net/shared...

Hi, i know that many of you are Mac users, and my sister in law's boyfreind bought this Imac powerpc something, where upon he recently installed some OS called OSX leopard, in an effort to wipe the computer totally. I do not know any version numbers or the type of the imac. But these can be obtained...

Still working, got the flashers light just right, the dock lights to yellow still though, working on that... added positional Audio, when its to your left the sounds comes from left and right, and in front and rear.. and taking into account that the player can switch viewport this shifting his ear p...

Thanks Thargoid, i cannot however find any documentation on the wiki, nor on BB, I have slight memory of it being announced.. CommenSenseOTB: i'm still thinking, i mean, i know I have been gone for a while, but that was due to double crashing HDDs.. I mean I already gave control away for the Rock He...

Testing Framecallbacks for the polaris animated Turrets, and i noticed that the the framecallback ofcourse runs while the game is paused, however that means anything i put into a call back funtion would run while the game is paused, even turret rotating and/or tracking, even the spawning of turrets ...

almost finished with placing and rotating turrets, after that a bit of scripting making the turrets fire Plasma Pulse Weaponry, incl the animation of rotating turrets when the player is near.. conversion table is for each x,y,z coordinate X=-X, Y = Z, Z=-Y, which is why it takes so long to place thi...

Now before i go post it as a bug, is it me that is setting up the array wrong ?

Yes; it should be an array of arrays of numbers (or other colour specifiers), not an array of strings. Of course, it shouldn’t crash whatever you give it.

Edit: fixed in r4582.

I tried to use a colors array for flashers like this on 1.75.3 { type = flasher; size = 30; colors = ("1,1,1,1","1,1,1,1","1,1,1,1"); frequency = 1; phase = -10; position =(-55.161,449.19,1201.008); } That however will crash Oolite.. I Tried shifting it its position in ...

I often see problems with the cloud layer on a textured planet that does not have a cube map..(never tried a cube map yet) like here http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn180/Frame_2/th_EarthCloudLayerStarlike.png Sometimes it works and the cloud layer is generated ok... but i cannot figure why other...

On the issue of Rock Hermit Locator OXP, the cost of the equipment (15,000 credits) is really an extravagance for what you get. For the cost of 2 1/2 military lasers, you get a locator for Rock Hermits, which tend to be almost entirely along the space lane between witchpoint beacon and planet, whic...
