Re: Suggestion: no peace for cop-killers OXP

Might you call it the Ice_COob.oxp?

You could even have a tie-in with the explorer's club, where you can keep track of how many systems you've killed cops in.

Quick question, does anyone know which oxp makes a "Python Commander" player ship available for a few 100 Cr?
Honestly, if you've ever flown a Python, it's still a bit overpriced.

Re: Problems with 'effectiveTechLevel'

Hm. I just discovered that my cloaking device, if broken, gets auto-repaired free of charge as soon as I dock. Even when I'm docked, change its status to "EQUIPMENT_DAMAGED", and press F5, it appears yellow again. Some taking-out-OXPs reveals that this seems to be caused by Assassins.oxp....

Re: Tales from the spacelanes...

Hmm, yes, when I'm hunting fugitives I'll often ECM police misiles (I'm not about to let those donut munching punks in blue steal my bounties), and never had that turn me offender.

Re: Debian, not really a bug, not sure where to post this.

Well, it could be a stray signal from your hardware, though that Apple junk is purported to be fairly good stuff, or it might be a driver issue. Do you even have a joystick driver installed? (I dunno if Debian ships it in kernel or as a module, honestly) I guess you could try building a custom kerne...

Re: Torus space stations' sphere of influence

fronclynne states there are double ring Torus stations and that blew me away. Have not see one. Yes, there are. If memory serves me well, there are three or four different type of toruses, an at least one is double ringed. Generally Torus stations are found in the highest tech systems only. Therefo...

Re: Torus space stations' sphere of influence

Could debris around a Torus station also be caused by NPCs trying to fly through the wheel and failing (because they're too slow for the turning wheel and are cut in half or something)? I don't know about anyone else, but I've never seen a NPC try to fly through the spokes. Might be a hoot to add i...

Re: Torus space stations' sphere of influence

Wanted to post this in appropriate thread but can't find it. Love the Torus station! Love injecting between the spokes both on arrival and departure. But some space faring NPC commanders seem to have trouble either moving about or docking with them. Every time I have arrived have either witnessed c...

Re: Science Fiction Trivia

Alright, then.

Your clue is: a knight and a robot team up to behead a communist giant. Then the knight gets kidnapped by amazons and forced to sew clothes while dressed in drag. His girlfriend has to save him.
