Oolite Bulletins

Hi, I was running out of things to do in Oolite, and gave this oxp a try. This is great. :) Problems I have encountered, though... When deciding to verify the galaxy map (F6, and sometimes F6+F6). The computer voice tells me to look at it, and press this key to return, etc. That's fine, but she tell...

Well, you know, following along these discussion paths, asking for "Launch Clearance" would make sense as well. Noticed a problem with the "Docking Clearance Protocol". Sometimes I get the clearance okay - power up my engines and head for the docking port - and boom - there's a s...

Hi, I got a real surprise last night: I saw 'Torus Station - Virgin'. Man, I was like, awestruck! It is huge. When you get close, it takes all your scanner screen at higher zoom levels. The station nav buoy loses 2 km, I see from the normal Coriolis stations (9 km normally, distance - while at Torus...

Thargoid, I did enjoy the fact that you gave keyboard based instructions to help someone with keyboard layout problems. :-) Ha ha! That is funny, now that I think about it. I suppose Thargoid saw that my normal letters were okay as well as that I could still (find) use the period punctuation mark, ...

but all the cargo (and passengers) were on board too!

Sounds like a bug to me

Oh ja?

Hmmmm.... I'll run some tests on that then, later on, see if I can replicate that.

My commander has since finished all his passenger and cargo contracts. So maybe take a day or two.

You see, that when you already have a certain type of commodity on board - and would want to buy more - it is so much easier to just sell everything you currently have, and then buy everything that is for sale. Try holding down Shift while pressing the "buy" arrow key. Okay.... That just ...

Hiya, I was using "Market Aide" before, but after seeing your product, I decided to try it, as it has a really good idea about telling you if you're trading shrewdly - or not. Everything seems to work fine, and this is where I see a down side for someone who has large cargo capacity (which...

Hiya, I'm getting much better at the game, and have not died (in what I consider) a long time. However, one can not afford to become complacent, in the Ooniverse, so decided to invest in your product. :) It laughed so much when I saw the Fooles System in the equipment screen. Makes sense, cause if I...

Okie... I think this oxp does not work correctly. Whenever I leave a station, I get the following message displayed on my screen: Test MV Is Currently Null. The in game computer voice also says it. I dunno what that means, but it is certainly not something I have seen as of yet, and it don't sound l...

Hey Smivs, I'm trying different stuff lately, and due to your post in my thread, decided to test fly your "Boa Clipper" . :) They must of had some overstock at Arexe, or something, cause I got one with with scoops, and a pile of other stuff already installed. Flys nice, very similar to the...

@ Deathknyte - You can definately still buy joysticks I bought one for my for my brother, (to play Oolite on), only 3 weeks ago. Any decent computer store will have some i.e. PC World, Game etc. Regarding the docking computer issue that you have mentioned you can carry out an instant dock, where yo...

JazHaz : Okay, I tried both ways you said, and I think I'll stick with that "plug in" thing from Diziet Sma. Thank you. Commander McLane : Thanks for your reply, but somehow it didn't work like that for me. I tried exactly what you said, at the time. I got so many results (I think somewhe...

Oh man, Thargoid - you're a genius! It sounds like you've changed your keyboard to that of a different region by mistake. ... There are other ways to switch the keyboard (one of which I guess you found by accident) but this should sort you out. There is a language toolbar that sometimes pops up (for...

Wildeblood : Wow, that was fast. I read the time of the update on the download site, was just like a few seconds after my post. :shock: Thank you. Tricky : Well, normally, as far as I understand things, I just right click on zip stuff I download and say Extract All. Then my computer fixes it all up...

Hi All, I see there are some real computer wizards, on these boards, perhaps one of you could be so kind to help me. I screwed up my computer somehow... :( It has to do with the keys on my keyboard when I press them. All the normal letter keys work still, but when I want to use punctuation or specia...
