Oolite Bulletins

Looks like they zoomed in on someone's Christmas tree!

I don't think the coloured stars look quite right and would be better if mainly white with a few coloured ones... but as you say snork, what does that matter? Not at all.

Chaps, I've read thru the 'How to' on OXP's but it's not sinking in despite being well written... so... I doubt if I will ever produce an OXP but would like to contribute. A few years ago I messed around in Blitz Basic and came up with something that did dust motes that looked like 'smears'. I thoug...

I thought stars, regardless of type, emit white light?

The thought that I can run it all day every day for 32p per month flicks a switch (assuming a 700ma supply).

I like that

What a thought - full circle!

One OXP that changes the feel of the game dramatically without actually changing anything (gameplay wise) is BGS. Strangely it's one that I didn't load but saw running on a f...

Some great ships!

(As always that happens just after I've won a joust or something else to be proud of..) He also owns a desktop with...

You are perfectly correct SandJ, it is not missing at all. It is listed as Escort Contracts under missions - I was looking in activities I think so my apologies...

Hi, this OXP is available from the Wikki but is not in the categorised breakdown ... so I missed it first time round!

Yes! Docking gave me a planetary approach view and a view of the station whist holding :inane grin:
