Oolite Bulletins

The OXP I have installed is: impcourier2.oxp The ship I have flying now has little resemblance to the ones described above. It has rotating nacelles, 4 missile slots, no mil. shields. It has fuel scoops & an escape pod. :?: Where is the (navy) variant/is it a separate OXP/is it in a different ve...

wackyman465 Is there a bug with the photon torpedo? Cuz it just circles instead of hitong me. As does the military missile when I fire it at anything. The only ones which seem to work are the std. missile (unless it gets ECM'd), std hardhead, interception missile (I love this one), that's about it I...

I've experimented a bit with shipdata.plist and never "shift" start-upped.
The (very few) changes I've ever made appear immediately in my ship - if I'm flying one - and also in any saved ships of that type.

The hOopyCasino OXP (above) works fine, thank-you EricWalch for altering it. I didn't think it was particularly a bug, knowing that an F1 launch was likely to jinx things a bit, but the correct remedy of a replacement keyboard is also now completed, and in fact I have just had a major win (200 Cr) o...

Having contributed an opinion as to what the supreme choice might be, and read with interest the finely reasoned opinions of others, I am inspired to purchase an Imperial Courier and to evaluate its performance in trade and battle. I purchased a civilian model at Ersoonve, G2, and was immediately im...

Yes, there is an Oolite Saves folder. I'm not sure where it is, but will have a look there now.. 1st Edit The folder called "Oolite-saves" is created in the Home portfolio, along with various other folders e.g. "Pictures" on a Mac 2nd edit In my saved game, the following entries ...

thankyouse for the recommendations. "messages" in the form of ghostly monks haunting my terrapin and once, long ago, some interstellar hoops, are all explained. so I'll try deleteOXP/playGame/re-installHOoPY (which I hadn't done) ____________and then How-I-Will-Laugh :P as I prove that the...

Probably a minor problem, but not one that I can solve. Recently, in my usual overexcited state flailing of arms and drinking of tea and typing words on computer etc., a splosh of beverage inexplicably arrived on the keyboard. So the space-bar stopped working. For some purposes it was sufficient to ...

10.5 is DEFINITELY worth the upgrade ... ... but not if you have any files created using earlier MacDraw from AppleWorks, or even ClarisWorks: none of these files can be opened using the iWorks downgrade! But if you haven't yet disposed of your earlier hardware/software, just refuse to let the next...

well it might be if I knew where to look

I've downloaded griff_arcelite_ships.oxp

..is it in there?

The Terrapin has a blue oval scanner!

I will see if I can steal one...................

The supremest choice is of course the BoaClassCriuser, but not supremer then the pilots who fly them, all of whom recommend the vessel as of outstanding spec., one which delivers miracles routinely whilst also strangely complementing the finely honed skills of the minds that control them. P.S. I am ...
