Touch Pilot one

Bought this for FSX, but decided to give it a try in Oolite. Came across a few problems: 1: The throttle slider cannot be allocated to the throttle control - the Fuel mixture slider can though. 2: Because I use inverted controls, the sliders are also inverted. Would be nice to treat each controller ...

Re: Oolite on the nintendo DS XL ?

Just spotted this. Forget the DSXL, how about the 3DS?

Oolite in 3d. Now that'd be fun.

For me, 9.6 had no effect, even with my new 4770 card. But the new 9.7 works a treat, and the frame rate's improved. Anyway, I can now see the nebula in all their glory - again. JBV^_^ The 4770 is the weirdest graphics card I've ever owned. The harder I push it (for a given resolution) the higher th...

You must have had a BBC Electron then, or at least the Electron version of the game (I seem to remember that it could run on the Model B too.)

That version had no missions and a cut down ship list compared to all other versions (including the Spectrum and NES ones.) It was still fun though.

A dyson sphere is coll, but wouldn't a Ringworld (also by freeman dyson) be simpler? After all, you wouldn't need a hole to enter, although docking facilities on the outside would be useful (for non-aero designs.)

I still have Elite for the NES. And no, it was one of those games which wouldn't run on the SNES adaptor. The main reason is it wasn't available outside of the UK (and maybe Europe.) It was basically the same as the Spectrum48 version (ie only tribbles (sic) and constrictor missions), but had some c...

Spearhead bug

I was attacked by a spearhead. Not a major problem in itself, but the engine exhausts are missed places in such a way, it looks more like the USS Enterprise.
If there's a simple fix, let me know^_^
