Oolite Bulletins

Hello everybody! As you may or may not know, February is reading month (at least here in Manitoba) so I'm putting up some links to really good sci-fi books including Drew Wagar's Oolite Saga ! Drew Wagar's Oolite Saga is based off the game Ooilte, and can be found here: http://www.drewwagar.com/book...

So long I'm happy with the 4000Cr. jobs :-) Yeah, right now I'm sticking to the 4000 Cr contracts and lower. Any above 4000 Cr and I've found it particularly damaging to my paintwork, but that is another story... Also when you take on a contract it says that the guild doesn't want you to use weapon...

I also have some questions about the Random Hits OXP. If you take on a contract that's about 7000 Cr, what can you expect to be facing? I tried one of the 4000 Cr contracts, and the target had a whole bunch of hired goons. Can I expect to face more of them and for them to be better equipped?

Thanks for the help, cim!

You have no idea how much this frustrated me. After my second attempt, well... let's just say that the pilot wouldn't be going home anytime soon.

And while you're waiting for someone in front of you to park their car you think "Hurry up and dock".

I've had a problem with one of the RRS missions. It's the one where you have to recover an ejected pilot with the high danger level. It's the one where the pilot hasn't contacted the station but they "hope it's a communication malfunction". Do any of you know how to complete this? When you...

Hey, I just grabbed whatever was handy. If I actually grabbed a book to read I wouldn't move from the spot for a couple a hours, because when I start a book I have to finish it.

I have something to say. It is possible to have to much Oolite. On the weekend I was playing for a couple hours non-stop and decided to take a break to eat. I got my food and started flipping through a farm equipment catalogue to keep myself occupied (yes, I admit it, I read while I eat) and ate my ...

Well... I may have accidently fired at the main station while taking part in a brawl, and then there was this civilian I hit while trying to get out of there, I may have pushed the wrong button and accidently released a quirium mine that I had on hand.... Yeah, it could've been any of those things....

Last not least, being one of the random hits bounty hunteres requires you to be clean. You get no job otherwise and approaching a Space Bar can be your end. Tell me about it. After being attacked by at least five different ships at the same time while approaching a Space Bar, I've learnt my lesson....

I just delivered an important parcel, and am on my way back to Quandixe. After jumping to a nearby system, I decide to start cruising to the main station to buy some cheap food. About halfway their I notice some pirates approaching me. No sweat, I can easily take them out , I think. They start firin...

Should low-bounty offenders be attacking you if you're a higher bounty fugitive (250 Cr)? If this is normal I might decide to give up my life of crime because those little < insert curse of choice here > are even worse than boyracers.

Thanks, Cody. Also, I was wondering about the Explorer's Club OXP. How do you know which worlds are the "Lost Worlds" or any other type? Can you tell which worlds you have to visit in order to complete a milestone, or do you just have to visit all the worlds?

During the holidays I was playing Oolite non-stop (because what else is there to do?), and it made me think a bit (uh-oh!). I have a few questions I'd like answered if that's alright. What is the difference between a Fer-de-Lance 3G+(t) and a Fer-de-Lance 3G+(t) (ex-police)? I don't think there is a...

While I was getting new equipment, I saw that there were some Quirium mines. It got me thinking. Not that I WOULD do this, but still... Is it possible to destroy a station by using a Quirium mine? Sure, it would be dangerous, but would it actually work? Also, what would happen if you launched multip...
