Oolite Bulletins

I am thinking about beginning a new game, but with a poorer ship than the Cobra you can do so here https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?p=103253#103253 Totally Brill wee beastie, only about 1.6Mill Cr. But does she fly.. M*f.. Thanks. To be be honest Ive never seen one ? supercobra 1.3.oxp is avai...

E … V … E … N … T … U … A … L … L … Y crawled up the ladder, installed an OXP or two and am now zipping around in a shiny Mosquito :D It feels great -- but because of many time constraints in other galaxies :? I can't quite remember how I made it here; I was going to try for a MorayMedicalBoat but d...

the wireframe setting in Oolite is rather nice, I use it a bit
(just hit "P" in flight then "f2" -- it's under "Game options" if you haven't already tried it)

Oh.. .. ..that looks good; love the heraldry

where is this Hunters Lodge????? and don't worry about cheating -- once you've got a reasonable looking equipment list and some extra fuel tanks Fuel Tank v2.1.oxp it doesn't take long to earn ¢ 1,000,000 from cargo contracts, and you don't need a big ship. Just keep running whatever comes up on the...

Thank-you for the suggestions -- the code to choose which object to add (depending on whether G4 sun is nova or not) works, and only one is added. The removal of "de-bug" bit hasn't affected anything. Whenever I arrive at a witchpoint the sun & planet are more or less in the same posit...

Probably use conditions as that what you have: "3 141" = { "script_actions" = ( { conditions = ("sunGoneNova_bool equal NO"); do = ("addMoon: gebiisso1_kbo"); else = ("addMoon: gebiisso2_kbo"); } ); }; OK I'll try that If I can't get all nova co-ord...

Well there are a number of things you can do at a Nova star. By flying directly away from the nova (in a negative direction along the z axis) the cabin temperature does stop climbing. Eventually it drops. That means you could land on a Kuiper Belt Object - which the game treats as a moon - and refue...

I take it that 0 0 something positive places the planet directly in front of you I would like a list of where all the planets are positioned, relative to the witchpoint, so that I can position an object in the opposite direction (after the sun has gone nova). The Nova is not exactly where the planet...

The 127t limit only applies to the f8 commodities "spot" market. f8/f8 opens up a different box-of-shims altogether (which could be thought of as a sort of derivitives market ?? perhaps ???) anyway, your main problem won't be too little cargo, but rather, deciding whether to go for a bigge...

I have located 32 objects (per galaxy) in space, in the vicinity of 32 stars. In the case of galaxy 4 stars may go nova, and when they do they move to a different position = where the planet used to be but further away (by about an order of magnitude it seems). In defining an object I am adding, its...

Poor Industrial Picture a landscape of row upon un-ending row of grey factories, smoke belching towards the skies and you have a pretty good idea of what life is like on a poor industrial planet. These factories churn out large quantities of low-grade mechanical goods, alongside the radioactives th...

i cant really think of any device which would be able to scan your hold and know what you had http://www.roadtransport.com/blogs/big-lorry-blog/2009/11/truck-x-ray-machinescan-anyone.html that will lead you to an interesting photograph which doesn't need the words to explain, but there are words th...

My escape pod has just witchspaced ..or maybe not - I think it was my ship: we were right on top of one another. (I'll try the same thing again) hmmm … … Can't get a repeat performance, but one of us hyperspaced through a shimmering wormhole immediately after escape-podding "dead slow" at ...
