Re: Strange bug with station

I'm on mac, and I have both versions installed seperately if that makes a difference.

Re: Strange bug with station

Yep, just updated recently. All I've seen before is when the 'shell' disappears, which happened in 1.76.1. From this happening, I have assumed that the code for a coriolis station involves the docking part, and the big part that hurts. If so, then they were misaligned somehow this time.

Strange bug with station

Hi all, Just seen a strange phenomenon with the coriolis station after takeoff. Now sometimes the station disappears, leaving just the docking bay. I've got used to that. But what happened just now was completely different - The station was spinning at 2/3 - 3/4 of my cobbie III's max roll, and the ...

Re: Thrustmaster Warthog and RCS pedals.

Hi BeastieBoy, and welcome to the friendliest board this side of Riedquat! I'm no joystick expert, but if there was some kind of connector like a usb hub, so that the stick and throttle could use the same usb port, then they might be detected as the same device? Again, I'm no expert, but I don't see...

Re: Split: Difficulty for new players

I just had an encounter with a Mamba escort, nothing too advanced, 9cr bounty, and yet he managed to take off half of my fore military shields in a matter of seconds!

Re: Possibly the nicest bar in G2!

Nope, just forgot about it! It's because I downloaded the OXP when in G1. Oh well, I'll just have to wait!

Re: Split: Difficulty for new players

Also being able to dock at injector speed helps. Good fun, is that... as is docking at a rock hermit on torus! I like using the torus on a hacker outpost, but that needs very careful alignment! As for the difficulty, I have noticed NPC's getting a huge number of hits, and lasers with a faster pulse...

Dangerous on Oolite, I'm not old enough to have ever seen any of those early computers, but I did want one just as much ;)

Possibly the nicest bar in G2!

I just paid the seedy space bar in Cevera a visit, it's amazing! You just Witchspace straight in, next to the seedy space bar, and there's colourful gas clouds all over! So, if you're in G2 and want to stop by for a Pangalactic Gargleblaster in a star nursery, I highly recommend it!

Ouch!

I think I've just learned a very important lesson... don't shoot a time raider! Even if he's taking your loot. It hurts. The positive side is, it's fun hearing the second in command's voice overlapping several hundred times with "enemy spotted" "target lost" :lol:

Re: New(ish) commander

I always assumed NPC's already had shields... Suppose that's a must now, I've been living a lie :shock: I'll definitely try those fairer play OXP's, El Viejo, but maybe after commander judebert has payed a visit to lord giles :twisted: Smivs: glad you like it, I thought I should have a pizza my ooni...
