Oolite Bulletins

Count me in, although I would find a "Current System" option (maybe hit F7 twice?) more useful than "Next System." It's usually the planet description of the current system with which I'm interested.

Wow, that was fast. I downloaded and can confirm (for what it's worth ) that all is well with LMSS after a respray.

I think there might be a conflict/hitch with LMSS and Ship Respray. If I have LMSS and lasers installed and then respray, I get the following effects: 1.) LMSS Dockside configuration unavailable in the menu unless you launch and re-dock. (Unsure if save/reload returns the LMSS Dockside Configuration...

I didn't think it terribly important, so I didn't ask, but having done a search of the board and wiki and can't find out what the colors represent. (An oxp that changes laser colors comes up in the search results, but I don't know if that color scheme is what has been added to core.) My military las...

Officially *DEADLY* for the first time... yep, I dig the stars which surround my rank. :) Ridiculously, my jump from 1.77 to 1.80(a couple of months back), and now 1.82, is the first time I didn't begin again with a brand new pilot... so no killing the Constrictor for a fifth or sixth time, but at l...

Like the topic says. I figure there are simple considerations that can be shared by those in the know for us non-developer types. :) For example, some oxp equipment might now be redundant, but not saleable; savegame editing the only option? Will old trader/parcel/special oxp reputations hold or is s...

Thanks cim, spara's nailed the culprit. Anyone interested in a great explanation can find it here (in the [wiki]MarketObserver[/wiki] thread): https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=13336&p=237213&sid=9e372317c1e3de38b0dd22cacef24842&sid=9e372317c1e3de38b0dd22cacef24842#p237170

Nice catch and great report :D . Here's what happens. You take the contract and the game adds the goods to your cargo hold. These are not noted by the Galactic Traders Association (GTA) as it's not trading. Then some cargo is lost and new is bought. Now that is noted as it is trading as it's a stan...

I perhaps made a mistake thinking the problem was with [wiki]DisplayReputation[/wiki], but it might be with [wiki]MarketObserver[/wiki] Hey, I recently completed a really huge cargo contract for gold. I go from 240,000 or so creds up to 420,000, but my Trader rep goes from Magnate(better than 300,00...

DisplayReputation just display the reputation values handled by the core game, uninstalling it does not change anything but you will not see your values. Thanks for the info, although I'm still perplexed by what happened. :lol: If I incurred a loss that dropped my trade figures to -500,000 then I s...

Hey, I recently completed a really huge cargo contract for gold. I go from 240,000 or so creds up to 420,000, but my Trader rep goes from Magnate(better than 300,000 profit) to -(that's MINUS!!!)500,000 profit and the discrepancy is bothering me. I lost part of the gold consignment to damage en rout...

Extracts of the Tre Clan is already in ship's library format. It's on the expansion manager.

Sorry, I was unclear. I meant I would write an original Oolite story, but likely after reading some other stuff (including Tre Clan, which I can tackle while mass-locked).

Thanks for the explanation. I'd volunteer to do Ship'sLibrary grunt work, but then I wouldn't get to read the stuff in my new preferred format. :mrgreen: I have a vague notion of adding to the body of Oolite fiction, which I will pursue after finishing at least the Oolite Saga. I'll probably first r...

Thanks Norby. I use [wiki]VariableMasslock[/wiki], but didn't notice it turning off Torus for asteroids in [wiki]TorusToSun[/wiki] 1.4 (also the Rock Hermits themselves). I will give TorusToSun 1.5 a try in the unlikely event I reload [wiki]RealisticStars[/wiki], which I uninstalled to "cure th...

Finally reading Status Quo, and thanks to Ship'sLibrary(not listed on the OXP list?) I've been able to read several pages each time I'm mass-locked. Has saved a couple of honest traders from vaporization; I'm sure they're hoping Mutabilis becomes available before I'm finished.
