Can I suggest disabling rescaling in the trunk .. [wreck rescaleBy: scale_factor] .. or wherever is considered most efficient. Most players building from trunk won't want to experience the rescaling problem .. anyone else could simply re-enable rescaling. Personally I see little benefit from rescali...

In suggesting fuel drop-tank functionality in the game core my intent was not to detract from the contributions made by authors of other fuel related OXPs. In fact having used the fuel tank OXP and found it so invaluable I never investigated or downloaded any other fuel related OXP. Having done so n...

Hi _ds_ The patch which I have reverted locally is "OOMeshes are now dynamically sized". I'm not a C programmer so you'll have to help me out here. those changes Ahruman made look to me to be to accomodate rescaling. the rescaling of wreckage seems to be in ShipEntity.m ( rev 2122 ) line 4...

To be honest I don't think this error is down to Ahruman. Firstly .. he's read a previous post on this .. https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?p=72049&highlight=#72049 Secondly .. I can't find any relevent mention of rescale, wreckage or wreck in the SVN log back as far as 23/5/07 and Ahruman i...

Is it planned to integrate extra fuel tank functionality into the game core ? Plane pilots have had this functionality since WW2. paraphrasing from the OXP authors site .. the Fuel Tank is fitted on a ship's weapon pylon and holds 3 ly of witchdrive fuel that may be transferred to the main tank. Thi...

Has Anyone got any console working on Vista 64 for use with Debug.OXP ?

Awesome Screet ! Assuming the problem is not in OXP flasher definition strings .. maybe Ahruman or one of the other devs could look into this as flashers are defined in the source code. Constitutions have 250 flashers which would mean that each one consumes approx 1 MB ( and 1 MB each seems excessiv...

where can one download the RS/OSE OXP for testing ?

The problem could equally well be in a legacy script.plist, if it's something like ship creation/texture useage or similar which is leaking. Your suggestion of just hacking out js files by rename will lobotomise most OXPs which use them for worldscripting (your Kestrel/Falcon above is a ship-script...

Please allow me to restate my naive question: How exactly does this happen, if it does? https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?p=73981&highlight=#73981 Oolite uses a JS engine from Mozilla. one potential problem would be an infinite loop ( exit condition never fulfilled ) here's a link relating ...

@ Thargoid The problem may be within a large number of OXPs installed. similar results should be had by locating the OXP dirs containing .js files then renaming them temporarily to *.OXP_ I certainly did not suggest randomly doing anything. any changes made are easily reversed. if temporarily disabl...

Would you mind explaining for a complete noob in those things how exactly javascripts could cause the memory problem on Vista and how renaming scripts might help? I had a look following the link you provided but didn't manage to get those two informations out of there I don't know of another way to...

javascripts in OXP .js files may cause memory problems. to check rename .js files in AddOns and subfolders using Rename Master. http://www.joejoesoft.com/cms/showpage.php?cid=108 I don't know if this will 'disable' affected ships .. if it doesn't it should rule .js files in or out as the possible pr...

If its a minor problem then its not this one
