Since we play a space trading game some of you might find this interesting. :) It's a free e-book. http://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/historical-analogs-side.jpg http://www.nasa.gov/connect/ebooks/historical_analogs_detail.html Edit: Also check http://www.nasa.gov/connect/ebooks/ebooks_archive_...

Solution is easy american keypads use the 300 series so : the left turn (#4) would be 314. the right turn (#6) is 316 and so forth .. the last entry to the key is the keypad #. easy to remember and be sure to put it in the right place and DO:NOT use notepad to configure se word pad or notepad ++. T...

Thank you. It still doesn't work for me, but I'll be trying to fix it.

WOW. Just WOW. This is really great! Thanks a lot to all the developers of this wonderful game!

Still, I have a problem. The directional keypad is dead. I have been steering my spaceships with it for a long time and now it's gone. Any ideas?

Thanks, that's something I will definitely put into use.

Edit: I'm flying a Miner Cobra and loving it.

Ten years! Wow! Thanks a lot to all of you who made this possible. What a game, what a game.

I bet you are watching the new Cosmos series. There was an episode where there was nothing on the screen, Tyson switched on some infrared camera and there was a rogue planet close by. Can we have some kind of infrared vision on Oolite? Apart from being eye candy it would be very useful to bring cont...

She got killed by her own escort just seconds into the Leesti system. While writing this I was approaching...

Hello!

I have had yet another idea for an OXP. This one would be able to track the total flying time of the commander. That would show your flying experience and give us another thing to brag about ("I got Dangerous after so many hours!") What do you think?

Nailed.

This is my second favourite "space" song:

Was there a Cobra Mk II? It would fill a gap between the couldn't-afford-better Mk I and the awesome Mk III.

Well, can it be done so it affects pirates too? This OXP would be 'bad' for smugglers (players and non-players) and 'good' for all that don't carry those goods.

What should happen when your cargo is destroyed? If it's Firearms you are probably carrying ammunition and that can explode for some extra damage to your ship, maybe like a missile hit. If your Narcotics get hit your screen may go crazy for two or three minutes, something bad in the middle of a dogf...
