What did you make of Hotrods? Another quirky oxp worth a peek is Personalities.
I like it! I'm about to install Personalities too. Thank you for the recommendation!

Re: Wormhole Effect

Looks a bit Goatse-ish, or is that just me?

Re: Opinions wanted!

Cobra Mk 3 XT. 37T Cargo Space, a bit faster and slightly more manoeuvrable than a Mk3. Basically a Cobra Cosworth GTI.

Re: Wishes, pleas, suggestions and demands!

I'll check that out, nice one! A related idea, if the number of kills in a system is tracked, you could spawn a ship next time in the system with messages saying something along the lines of "You killed my brother/sister/cousin/lover etc etc prépare to die!" If its not tracked per system p...

Re: Wishes, pleas, suggestions and demands!

A small idea. Without enhanced settings/AI etc, out of the box, at full pelt in a Cobra Mk 3, its reasonably easy to drive off multiple ships behind you with a military laser by sniping them til they retreat (unless they're those bleeping annoying Kraits). To make this have consequences, if you driv...

Re: Introduce Yourself.

Allo! I had the same problem. There's a setting in the Bounty OXP to delay bounty reception til you go to a Galcop Office. It also seems to pause the kill count too. If you go in to the OXP config via the F4 screen, switch this setting from true to false. It was mentioned recently on the "Kill ...

Re: [RELEASE] Towbar OXP v0.98

Hello Norby, Love the OXP! One thing though: I notice its possible for the Constructor (from the Constructor Hunt mission) to be derelict and mined. Towing it in to a station (like I did first time) doesn't trigger the conditions for the Navy recognising that it has been destroyed. Also it seems to ...

Re: Trunk nightly

Same thing here. I was trying to download a 103MB oxz file and the download number was freezing around 23MB and the program seemed to hang. In the last try i left it for five minutes and it completed the download although no change in the download numbers occured. The four cpu threads were not idle...

Re: Trunk nightly

Thanks, people. Some other things though: - When (on my Windows computer) downloading large expansion packs in-game, the game appears to hang - the game stops responding, CTRL-ALT-DEL says the program appears not to be responding, and ALT-TAB task switching doesn't work. FWIW, I have found that too...

Re: Introduce Yourself.

Hello all! Usual background story: placed 8-bit Elite (on the CPC) when I was a 'little un. Just recently discovered the awesomeness that is OOLite, courtesy of a FB friend. Am running it with loads of OXPs, and really enjoying it. Used to be a software engineer, although that was mainly C++/C#/Delp...
