Oolite Bulletins

I wonder if you may want to have some script in the oxp, so that there is always at least one rock hermit ? Here's a suggested ship-script for the zeke-transporter-miner-player ship (Thanks to Wyvern_Mommy on IRC for pointing out a ship-script would be much better than a global script). http://past...

Hey Rustybolts,

Your Mediafire site seems to have disappeared. Are you hosting your OXPs anywhere else?

Cheers,

Just tested out the unfolding buoy - very pretty.

Might -almost- make sense for the Armadillo to tow the folded-up buoy all the way to the deployment spot, and for the buoy to only start unfolding after it's been deployed. Ditto for the Witchspace buoy.

How did you fix it?

Is the buoy repair ship jumping into the system now to deliver the new buoy (or launching from the GRS Station if there is one in-system), or did you work out a workaround for the port size?

Damn! The Galcop police has agents everywhere these days!!

Right On Commander!

Cooperation might be in order to tackle some epic hits - If the mark was, let us say, a Black Monk VIP hidden inside a Monastery, surrounded by a minefield and a couple dozens BM Gunships expecting for trouble, and with a bounty in the 5 digits order... But I get your point - you'd rather keep thin...

I too would prefer Random Hits to stay the way it is. The core game is you as a lone-wolf trader (/bounty-hunter/pirate) pitted against the Ooniverse. While I don't begrudge people wanting to play more epic scenarios they are catered for with certain OXPs to do just that. So I'd personally prefer th...

So we need to pre-order the buffet stuff, but we can order the main-menu stuff on the day? I'm inclined to just go for main-menu; specifically, the Turkey Sunday Roast it being christmas and all :) OTOH if there's an overwhelming majority for the buffet, I'll tag along with that. Thanks for all the ...

One of my co-workers solved it without cheating (he says).

It occurs to me that simply requesting a way to set a ship to be a hulk via JS would be the way forward, instead of doing all sorts of weird things in JS?

Obviously only after MNSR...

Do you have the OXP? I tried to find it several times to no avail, would very much like it if it's sitting on someone's dusty virtual shelf..

How about restricting TAF from 0.25x to 4x when in "mass-lock" conditions? The NPC AI seems to work ok even from TAF 0.06x to 4x on my computer . Good idea. Well, that is precisely the problem. The faster your computer, the higher the TAF at which AI will (sortof?) work, and vice-versa. H...

Somehow I didn't even think of the potential 'learning mode' option that sdrubble is using, but it's something I'll bear in mind if we get another 'docking is too difficult' topic... :D I've actually made a 'precise controls' patch for keyboard (since I'm a keyboard Commander) for my own use - I ca...

May I just point out that everyone plays the game differently. Not everyone wants a fast-paced non-stop action-fest getting to "Elite" with a gadzillion credits in an evening of gameplay. Might as well just play an arcade shooter for all the immersion that provides (IMHO). Personally I qui...
