Oolite Bulletins

OK, now I'm confused. I didn't get any log record when I put an log call in the function. I thought, "Ah, so it's not getting called at all.". Then I thought, just as a test, I'll put a log message into the function I know *is* getting called. And still no message in the log! It was going ...

It's just a string, not an array. I'll try putting the log entry in.

I'm having trouble reseting some variables when the player launches from a station. This is what I have: this.shipWillLaunchFromStation = function() { this.$commsList = ""; this.$page = 1; this.$updateMFD(); } I'm trying to reset $commsList to be an empty string, reseting the $page to 1, a...

I did hear there might be cookies...

Right, commsMessageReceived, primable equipment scroll...
Wait, what?
Are you suggesting I actually (cue dramatic music) write my own customisation?

Gulp.
Err... okay... this may take a while...

Actually, I have that installed and I agree, it's brilliant. It does mean, though, that I can't just skim the comm channel anymore. I have to read each entry, and thus my post about a Comms MFD.

To the devs: Thank you so much for all your effort in putting together v1.80. I've only had a few runs so far, but already I've seen more varied flights and interactions than ever before. I'd gotten comfortable flying into Anarchy systems - now I have to have my wits about me! I love the new way of ...

Saw this situation soon after installing 1.80. I was on my way into the station from the witchpoint marker. Came across an Adder, flagged as an offender. I waited to see if they were hostile, but instead they put out a call for help. Into view flew a formation of GalCop Vipers, who were firing on th...

Hopefully this is a quick question. Is it possible to get all in-flight comms listed in a MFD? I find that comms take place too quickly in some circumstances, and repeatedly hitting the "`" key to show recent comm messages is awkward.

Yes, the save file snippet was after the incident.
It was a mid-level mark.
Yes, the mark used an escape pod.

I think I found a bug in RandomHits. I'm running version 1.7 (which I believe is the latest) in Oolite 1.77.1. I'd just finished a hit in Gal 5, at Divees. I'd docked, unloaded some cargo, picked up some new stuff, then jumped out to Arzaquar. When I arrived in system, there was another ship at the ...

Hmm...in that case it would be *really* useful to have some sort of flag/display element showing on the manifest that part of your cargo space is taken up with precious metals. Should I post this in the "Suggestions" area? I imagine it would be a simple OXP type job.

Just to make sure I've got this straight... If I scoop gold (or gemstones or anything that would normally go in a safe) it shows in the manifest as if it's in the safe, although it's actually in a cargo canister that I can select for ejection. (I didn't realise this - I'll have to test!). Basically,...

Seriously, there does appear to be an issue here somewhere... If I scoop up gold, two things are happening (1) a spare spot in my cargo bag is taken up, and (2) the random amount of gold in the container is added to my gold already in the safe. Technically, these are just two variables in my current...

Ooookay, right, so I'm flying this you-beaut, top-of-the-line, fully-kitted-out Cobbie MkIII, with a tin foil safe that can hold hundreds of kilos of gold that "magically" expands when exposed to space?

Sure, that sounds feasible.
