Aaagh - had just made it iron ass as well (Military shields, Navy energy unit etc.) Had been enjoying playing with it after flying around in a Boa Cruiser making money. Well I suppose at least I made enough cash that I'm not that bothered about losing money trading ships at the moment! Back to a Cob...

So I've found the escape capsule sending SOS. Trouble is I'm playing in an ASP with no fuel scoop, so can't pick it up. Does this mean I'm stuck? Is it not possible to complete TD in an ASP?

Thanks - that's exactly what I did, Thargoid, as I couldn't see any other way. It's just that it seems rather clumsy and I was wondering if there was an alternative!

AI methods in JS

I'd like to code purely in JS, yet there are some methods which are seemingly only available using legacy AI scripts - eg performFlyToRangeFromDestination, performFaceDestination to mention just the two I needed to use recently. This inevitably results in having to mix scripts if you want to use the...

The beta is out - doesn't interest Thargoids yet, sorry, though that's a potential future enhancement I suppose (not necessarily that useful given how seasonal mince pies are :wink: )

MincePie.oxp

I made this as an add-on for santa.oxp - see https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?t=2671 for first announcement. Rather than totally hi-jack that thread, here's the first beta version. It does all seem to work, but this is my first attempt at an OXP, so I've probably missed something - will go to r...

I found how to tempt him out a little early. http://i608.photobucket.com/albums/tt161/a-racer/oolite-003.jpg Not that it will help anybody else, as the OXP isn't quite ready (it is my first attempt at one and I only started on Saturday!) and I think he comes out tomorrow anyway. Then again he's not ...

Sorry I've not been through the whole thread (only about 20 pages of it!), so don't know if this has already been mentioned, but I've found a bug in the OXP. I scooped the escape vessel of the hit, then as I was in an Anarchy my first dock was with a bar. When I docked I got the message that the bar...
