well this event prompted me to install just that - and FTZ & HoOpy Cas'o both pretty cool.. edit: it all happened before I knew there was an Oolite Bulletin Board, or AddOns, or anything else except that there were a few missions available (the native ELITE missions) which I was working through,...

Early days

..there I was, ambling along with some ethically obtained furs, happy slaves and those very interesting alien items. They'd be easy to unload at Beenbeor, I was sure of that. And if they disputed the willingness of any "indentured labour" to be transferred across stellar systems (in some p...

There is a great "external view" looking out of the scoop, which is located underneath the PythonClassCruiser (you can see it in pictures of this model for example at http://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Python_Class_Cruiser).

Yes, in between the nav. buoy and the space station. It's never happened before, as far as I know, but as I'm usually a fugitive, I don't really check status much - or try docking computers. Unless I know I'm OK..

I have a Caduceus saved but have never been able to get the plasma turrets to work. Weapons, whether lasers or plasma things, are not available to purchase for side mounts. edit: just took a quick test flight to try plasma turrets again, and in order to attract some targets at Lave, inadvertently sh...

OK that sounds alright.

I take it, then, that there is no code that i can't see, containing stuff written by someone else, that I'd be failing to acknowledge.
