Oolite Bulletins

You see this is why I always end up coming back here. Your all a bunch of Mad Mad bastards and I love you all dearly.
Oolite has the kind of infectous technical enthusiasm, I've only really seen with arcade enthusiasts.

One does try to make life a little easier.... if you can deadicate a pure 'oolite' game keyboard then I've found spaying the overlays with a quick burst of plasticote after their fitted (and before you put the keys back on the keyboard of course!) Gives them a professional lustre and extends their u...

Not too bad AC. I'm keeping busy. I seem to remember I promised this place a trilogy.... I get easily distraced... What have I been in the meantime? Gaming and roleplaying twitch streamer by proxy. The post production career is sizable now. Heroforge for fun and profit. Taught myself to off road the...

This thread has aged like a fine wine......

Wow. Was that really over 14 years ago? I stand by the original post however and we have seen the proliferation of this ethic in other games and genres. The entire speed run industry, high scores, iron man plays, The can I survive? Genre on youtube. And lets not get started on the modding communitie...

When designing the routes we tried (and everyone helped) to go from high to low to high: high industrial to low agricutural or low industrial to high agricultural. We had a lot of fun back at the beginning finally b...

Ok I finally have news. After a massive alcoholic pay off. My editor will be releasing a fixed version of book 1 within the next week. And I will be starting to serialise book 2 "Exodus" on the forum. My editor has pointed me in the direction of a wonderful grammar program. (hey we can't a...

The gun (originally) was designed for pure accuracy.
The rainbow variation may have "messed" with this some what.
I still have the utmost faith in the variation however and it's creator.

Ever feel like your in a box, you have the key to the box but your captor wants you to give it to them before they lock it down and padlock you in. Not for any particular physical reason. It won't change your general situation, of the overall encompassing nature of your confinement. But it's importa...

Your not slothful sir! Merely fashionably late. The best way to be in all the talked about social circles.

Remember to pick up a map before you exit the station:

"Wow I thought this was like one of those votes, which like didn't matter and maybe just maybe I might be able to stick it to the man..... I didn't realise I was voting to cut my own c**k off and ram it up my a**.... I feel unsure about this now we've started dishing out the razor blades.....&q...

He has an agenda. But this isn't a corporate take over. When one commands a country one must be prepared for the unexpected coming at you from several different angles. The proof of the pudding is in the eating and the proof of this president is his reaction to disaster. There lies the test. Wouldn'...

The timeline I did was created independently of my involvement of Oolite (and might actually predate it) so the choice of Oolite fiction writers (or OXP writers) to reference it is entirely theirs. My recent thoughts on the timeline and Oolite in relation to the established "Frontier Developme...

There is method in there. Secure what matters. Increase in spending for the army and for support services for veterans. A good emperor knows that if you look after the praetorian guard, your chances of getting a knife in the back decreases rapidly. Now we just have to find a solution for all those p...

Yeah, The Dark Rainbow. I can't be too down on it because to be so, is against the ethos of oolite itself. Play, hack, adapt. The played game is not the entire game, the concept is. You start playing one, get annoyed by bits of it then begin the "master add on game". It is uber, mind you t...
