Oolite Bulletins

Hello phkb. Sorry , I copied too much . That is a stray because its the end of the previous interstellar space section. I'm just going to have to get used to the stupidly large and indeed bright Suns. I love the game too much not to accept the little irritations in it. Shame about Box being all Fort...

Indeed I did. This is how it looks . }; "universal" = { sky_color_1 = (0.75,0.8,1); sky_color_2 = (1.0,0.85,0.6); stations_require_docking_clearance = no; sun_distance_multiplier = 50; }; I did start with your original editusining "Word Pad ++" adding it just below line 17 ( crea...

I have tried your recommendation Cody and as luck would have it, It doesn't seem to work at all.

I am looking for either Far Suns or Sensible Suns OXP both of which seem behind The Box's Paywall sadly .

If I might add to the clamour. It is my contention that any OXP/OXZ created under a creative commons license ( free to use ) should be readily accessible and not buried. Norby , that old link died. If yo can find another way of sharing what you have, there would be a heck of a lot grateful souls her...

Thanks Cody ,

You could add sun_distance_multiplier = 5; to the "universal" section of your planetinfo.plist (adjust that number to taste).

I'll give it a go. Anything is better than the big bright white Suns on these old eyes

Hi there, I have no idea what happened to Box Downloads. They seem to want us to pay to download anything from them. That having been said theres a fair few oxps that are desirable and I would really like to get of the old far suns oxp. These great big modern ones hurt my old eyes . If anyone has a ...

Yes, that was it , Ascension is back now . Thank you

Thanks Cody, I'll have a look see

I was enjoying Oolite, as you do, but got a new laptop and did a reinstall of my favourite open ended space saga. I distinctly remember that near where Sori is in the bottom right extremity of Galaxy Chart 1 was the Planet Ascension with a very impressive tech level of 16. My guess is that Ascension...

Arguments in favour of or against Markets on dockables other than main stations have always been and remain very much a matter of personal game play preference. Among the many attractions of Oolite , A Major one has always been the "Your Game, Your Way" aspect. The purists of the old Elite...

Hello phkb, The issue regarding my losing an extra station seems to have been caused by my having both versions of Liners from the Manager, having removed the older version, the situation seems to have resolved itself. With regard to Commodities , it may be worth having them priced at a level commen...

Thank you phkb, At long last , Liners now have a Market. They did way back when, but for some reason the Markets disappeared with subsequent releases of Oolite. Two small points of note from play testing the Markets thus far, and when I say small, I really do mean small, because previously Liners we...

I still play Oolite Probably more so than ever , since becoming a Widower in February this year, I have and continue to grow old disgracefully with Oolite . If Money was not an object, I'd be buiried in a physical representation of my Cobra Mk III "Saint or Sinner" A Derelict floating in t...

As useless an excuse as any I suppose, Much like the Liners oxz which also have no markets...Eye Candy alone then

They seem to have a market that sells nothing and every commodity has zero value. aside from that , this is an architecturally beautiful feature
