And just round the corner from Forbidden Planet.

Re: Planetfall 2.0 (maybe)
Or run the risk of getting robbed/mugged/murdered on landing and if there's any kind of ground transfer done too perhaps?
Either part or all of the cargo, or even the ship itself going walkabout or getting damaged, or getting stung for additional "fees" to leave maybe?

Re: Planetfall 2.0 (maybe)
Well, I've come up with *something* for the planet-side transit system. In the following video, I'm docked at a planetary location. There are 4 sites on the planet. There's a new F4 interface screen, which opens to ... well, you can watch and see! Youtube - PlanetFall2 Transit system I can't seem t...

Re: Planetfall 2.0 (maybe)
One other thought, concerning the planetside locations. As yours are somewhat less random than mine used to be, how about adding options to travel between them planetside perhaps? Assuming of course there's some way to catch or block launching (or work around it) so you can't launch from any other ...

Re: Feudal Systems
Airports are normally landside and airside, at least around here.
Personally I prefer planetside rather than downplanet.

Re: Planetfall 2.0 (maybe)
So I mean no disrespect to Thargoid in saying that planet fall 1.0 was a marvellous proof of concept. It showed it could be done but not necessarily what to do with it. None taken, as you're entirely correct. The original of that OXP is me looking at the available events and seeing it was something...

Re: Planetfall 2.0 (maybe)
I'd have to agree that the docking tunnel is an immersion-breaker. That's why I did away with it in the original and went for the "zoomed landscape" animations instread. Would have been nice to have them move downward rather than moving towards them, but that was beyond my capabilities (a...

Being me, I would always say greentimer wrote:Suggest colors for developers and moderators - and I will make them!
Otherwise a metallic grey or somesuch perhaps?

Re: Planetfall 2.0 (maybe)
I think it's probably time to have this discussion. *Anything* we do this close to the surface of the planet is going to look wrong on a number of levels. First, unless we switch over to 8k textures for every planet, the "ground" starts to look very grainy and unrealistic. If we put some ...

Re: Planetfall 2.0 (maybe)
Not much to add technical-wise, but just to say I'm pleased to see this old OXP/OXZ is still going, and in good hands. Back in the day when I wrote it, most of what you're proposing wasn't actually possible (e.g. saving on the planet), which is a testiment to how far the game has come in the the 16...

Re: July 2024 - Oolite Anniversary Party
I am aware, and am looking forward to seeing what comes of it. Bearing in mind how long ago (and what Oolite version it was) when I wrote it, there's a lot of potential for improvements given how things have evolved. I'll have a look and see if I have Eric's landing strip version or not, but maybe ...
