Oolite Bulletins

Wow, you know what? As a ship builder, it does affect me, and others... I can't see how. As long as you know that in order to match up with the pre-existing scales, a ship needs to be in a putative range of x to y metres, what does it matter if that range is 5-20 or 50-200? Or even 500-2000? As lon...

This link from a thread in Outworld has a pretty good rundown on what's hot or not in recent cards. It's American, but a quick search on ebay for the card type wherever you may be should give you some good ideas of price.

Wow. You know what? I play Oolite. It works. I don't care if thing X is eleventy-three times bigger/smaller/more purple than it "should" be or not. I don't care if things from fictional universe A don't match up with things in fictional universe B without having to adjust their scale or sp...

The main problem is the torus drive, it's an uber device that gives the player a serious advantage over the npcs. Even when used in the lane. I'd have to disagree with this too. The only advantage I can see is when you use it to chase down a target who's running away on injectors, and you can only ...

So far, I think the best solution to the off-lane issue is to leave the mechanics as they are, and make going off-lane unpredictably dangerous via occasional pirate nets and Thargoid patrols. As for the "boring" bits, I think Capt. Reynolds is right: this is a game which requires patience...

Am I the only person here who thinks this is a non-problem? Nope. As far as I can tell, buried under the last umpteen pages is the problem of making the "boring" mass-locked inbound bits less boring for the new player. If they get put off by that, chances are they'd never stick with the g...

Oh god, if they can't tell the difference between a cargo container and a unpowered ship or similar... I now have a mental image of a Scavenger turning up for a maintenance overhaul with a derelict Anaconda jammed in its fuel scoop, the pilot saying "dunno what's wrong but the handing's gone to...

Good luck, and never stop fighting.

Thanks for this, it's brilliant!

I can feel a much-needed shift from Tier 21 to Tier 9 coming on after the seasonal chaos subsides...

Solution: bought Thrustmaster T16000M Looks like a good piece of kit - shame about the Cyborg X but I don't think Saitek exactly did themselves any favours with that one, judging by what I've seen online. I've just switched to a Saitek X52 setup and have to say they're not half bad, even if the ide...

Apart from cost, how would this vary from Military Fuel Injectors?

To be fair, I've not even looked at it.

It's weird that this thread should materialize just when I'm thinking something vaguely similar... I was thinking how cool it would be to have missile con-trails, generated in the same way as the aforementioned fuel leak but less diffuse, maybe fading out after 15-30 seconds. Locking up several targ...

I do believe you might be needing the Scanner Targeting Enhancement - only 450Cr from your nearest Tech Level 12 system!
