Well, here's my opportunity to feel mildly stupid... I had been putting OXPs in ~/.local/Oolite with all the other Oolite files, even after seeing ~/.Oolite/AddOns all the time.

A series of suggestions from a new player.

Well, greetings, Oolite community! I recently found Oolite looking for a good, free space combat trading game I could play on Linux (pining for some Flatspace, actually, but alas, it's Windows only).
