Interesting... Great idea and well done for organising something so cool.
I've reached out to drew and daddyhoggy to see if they're interested.
For myself that London is a logistical problem, but if I can work that out I'll do my best to be there.

Re: A question of lore
Classic Elite lore seems to say one thing, traditional Oolite lore seems to say another... This is a key attraction to me. Elite and oolite SHOULD have different lore. I always see oolite as a spin off parallel universe, diverging sometime around 3100. Key difference up front is the influx of garag...

Re: A question of lore
I think you may have quoted the wrong thing to link to your reply. I still maintain that I haven't written anything about human colonials not being earth humans...but I am happy to be corrected. Yeah, I see what i wrote. There's quite a lot of stuff I did back in those days that could do with a reth...

Re: UPDATED OXPS: Lave 1.70 & transports 2.45(new)
Yeah, that's a big plot hole right there. No answer to that one, sorry. If I was to make something up on the hoof, I'd say potentially there could be a clandestine link to the planetary economy. Unmanned drones could be doing naughty things in remote places to ferry goods to the station? Alternative...

Re: Lave OXP
The Galactic Co-Operative means very little to the serfs tilling the fields of a Poor Agricultural Feudal planet, or the mind-numbed drones of an Industrial Dictatorship, or the Corporate wage-slaves. We, the pilots, are the lucky ones. We're out, and free: and, shameful to admit, we don't really c...

Re: A question of lore
The two well-developed versions of the lore - Selezen's & Cim's - both imply that the inhabitants of the Eight came from elsewhere. Neither seem to discuss the GS's - but Selezen's views would have been historically tinged by his wish to incorporate Frontier From what I recall of Selezen's acco...

Re: Introduce Yourself.
As for E:D, the old-timers here are the people who stayed with Oolite and avoided it (maybe after dabbling in it for a bit). There was a major outflow of community members to it when it started up, few have returned (and many seem to have since moved on to other things - such as Drew, JazHaz, Selez...

Re: Metafiction: Dialogues on the Lore of Xlite
Incidentally, do you have any ideas as to who actually developed the lore for Lave? All that stuff about the Empress living on the moon, Basta, the four continents etc . Was it Selezen himself, or does it predate him? Nope. No idea. Could the Lave lore have been developed somewhere in the Gazetteer...

Re: Tionisla Historical Society (ED)
Hey y'all. Just wanted to again raise a thread from the dead to confirm that the player group did get in touch with me and kept me up to date with what was going on. It was a good effort from the players and it was nice to get THS where it belonged for however long it lasted :) I didn't have much to...

Re: Recovering "Lost" OXPs
Hello everyone. It's been a while. I see many posts about OXPs and resurrecting old ones. For posterity I am more than happy for people to play with, update, modify or otherwise abuse anything I've created for Oolite. I'll even provide an open letter to that effect if it's a "legal" requir...

Re: Tionisla Orbital Graveyard 2.0
As I said on the original TOGY thread about two mins ago, well done on the new version. Looks good.
Did anyone put a new Lancet model together?
