Oolite Bulletins

Cmdr Cheyd: we're debating the name of the Devils Triangle region in G1. Can you throw any light on the issue? That was twelve years ago. I've slept at least once since then. Sorry. Re-reading through, likely it was supposed to be Devil's Triangle. (Although, in hindsite, might not be the best name...

Oh, I would note that on the DH page, the Nav Buoy is, AFAIK, the default in-game now.

Synopsis: Looks good. Sorry to hear it doesn't work anymore in 1.90 on applemac. I have some images I can share. PM me and I can probably come up with a few. Shady planets was a branch of code that looked to introduce shaders to planets rather than just basic textures. I mocked up the look of one su...

Thanks for maintaining this, phkb.

Shameless plug for ambience/equipment:

Wait a min... Is there support for shady planets now?!?
I might get lured back if there is....

How do I do that? Is just changing the license statement/declaration in the script good enough?

Okay, so what do I need to do to allow this to happen? Change the license universally? Provide a specific license to Oolite core dev?

Let's make this a thing.

Thanks for the mention of my work, Cody. And you're correct. I no longer develop my OXP's. I lost interest when the Shady Planets branch of code died, combined with a bug I'd run into with the cubemap converter (I forget the name of that tool now) that was lingering for a long time. If I ever got a ...

Sounds like a fun OXZ. Interesting to see folks still use ANC.

Also, it's been a while since I messed with it, but I seem to remember being pretty clear on the fact that the ANC OXP would change default behavior as an immersion element, and actually purchasing the ANC in-game item yielded the benefits.

Well, if you haven't already, add yourself as a contributor. You've added to it, now

To expand on that, the idea of the ANC is that the ANC computer is taking extra time to calculate your route. This is implemented by extending the jump timer. The return for this added time is a fuel savings (refund) upon exiting from WS at your destination. Pressing 'h' relies on the 'normal' compu...

Sounds like a killer extension of the ANC, man! I'll have to try playing some when I get home next month.

You guys don't know how encouraging it is to have folks still comment on these OXP's so many years later. Glad you guys like them. (And I've given phkb permission to make the EWI part of the manager.)
