Oolite Bulletins

I haven't reproduced this bug. I just noticed it with my current ship. Get a Cobra MKIII, standard, fly it to a Commie OXP SLAPO station (found near the sun in high tech Commie systems, I was at Inines in Gal 1). But a whole bunch of equipment including an extra large cargo bay and two passenger ber...

You can have a great ship and still be in trouble. If you're new, you may want to do some practice. I'm not a great fighter and have leaned on the occasional energy bomb to get my current Above Average rating. A good pilot knows how to avoid fights in the first place. fuel Injectors are your friend....

Treczoks, It's an impressive work. I'm actually ok with the recommendation of firearms as the best deal even though they are illegal. The absolutely best deals aren't legal sometimes. It's a game, it a Jameson gets himself into a bit of trouble with the authorities, he'll learn from it. Here are som...

Intelligence is one evolutionary survival stratergey, but its not neccessarily a particularly good one. Horseshoe crabs ain't too smart but they've been going a lot longer than us. :wink: For the lazy, or sedentary, you really can't beat being a tree. You sit in one space all day and 'food' is all ...

I grant the issues of time and the question of intelligent spacefaring life, I am simply saying that similar conditions should produce similar results and if they don't then something different happened.

I heard on BBC radio that something like 40% of stars are thought to have planets (or perhaps 40% of Sun like stars, it was a few days ago) I will be controversial, and say that given that many planets and that physics/chemistry/biology works the same throughout the universe, if we were the only lif...

Here's a thought, as in real life, there are never enough people to cover the entire border, so rather than have lack of a visa completely prevent entrance to a system (if that was your intent), have lack of a visa change your legal status to fugitive so you can't auto dock and vipers are dispatched...

There would have to be something really good on that planet in order to warrant paying to get there. Conversely, you would want to be careful about which systems were permitted, since putting a few systems off limits to those who couldn't pay could throw off the game. I have noticed that going from ...

On the note of the missiles, and sorry that this is a total newb question, but can you select which missile to fire? Yes, if you have bought the Multi Targeting System (vanilla Oolite equipment item). Even with out that pressing 'Y' allows you to cyle through missles in order to choose which will b...

If you rotate 90 degrees, and then go Up that's the same as going side to side. I don't have a Boa Cruiser, but I have done it numerous times with my Moray Star Boat. You have to approach it carefully. If it's not lined up, I come to a stop somewhat away from it. I rotate until it's straight up and ...

This is similar to an idea I had a while ago, about running into this pair guys who need a ride out fast One is a young guy and one is an older guy who keeps spouting mystic mumbo jumbo, and they are both need a ride to Alderan (or similar planet).

A C,
As a passenger carrier, for whom cross galaxy trips can make me 10,000 + cr or not!,
I thank you

ah but if you're miserly, you wouldn't PAY to have a computer to do it, when you could easily write it down and use that money towards buying more goods.

It's a good idea, I'm just being silly

#2 and now I know why I haven't been seeing those things. I have been looking in the wrong place.

Check the Doc folder for useful files on how to do stuff. (It's called doc in linux, maybe it's different on Windows or Mac). The quick answer is , hit F6 use the mouse or arrow keys to choose the planet you want to go to. hit f1 to get back to forward view hit 'h' and that will launch you into hype...
