Re: [WIP] Diplomacy OXP

The oxz is available again into the game package manager. It's currently the same as the 0.11 version from july 2017. It's now hosted on sourceforge, so hopefully it won't stop again to be available because of my own servers. I will have another look at your documentation and code again, last time i...

Re: [WIP] Diplomacy OXP

I finally need to give it a test try, I guess there are plenty of opportunities to implement the System Guard Navy. Totally :D That was one of my goals, to have system flotillas warring :mrgreen: You might want to check the doc in the oxz, in particular the roadmap, which is admittedly dense, but e...

Re: JB WIP thread: several ships

Would it be possible to have a space elevator, pretty please :-) ? https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=18876 technically it is possible with some kind of tether to a satellite in geosynchronous orbit, and probably would not be difficult to model at all, but at the same token it might be...

if I can reuse your oxp, it's better
Sure, do it. The License allow it even without my response.
Thank you :P

Re: [Split] Convoys OXP

Hi Norby,

nice oxp :P

Would it be possible to generate an "army convoy" from another oxp?
I'm thinking about generating defensive and offensive armadas in warring systems :P

I had this on my TODO list, but if I can reuse your oxp, it's better :P

Re: [WIP] Diplomacy OXP

The 0.11 version is in the manager. Improvement, flavor: added a F4 Alliances Map, showing alliances between systems. Improvement, flavor: having only news for the player current system. Improvement, flavor: fixed Diziet Sma citation Improvement, code consistency: the tax script becomes the economy ...

Re: Variable jump times

I like these ideas :P I propose the travel would depend on the total mass of ships. Which means the hole initiator could be late through some other fault. Which could spark interactions :P And a hole sharer could not be sure of the time lost in the jump; free-riding should have incertitude, and this...

Re: How Does Avoiding the Spacelanes Break Gameplay?

The Thargoids could conceivably have advanced long-range scanners, allowing them to dry-gulch ships who venture off-lane. Even with a relatively low (10%? 5%?) chance of being caught, having a couple of Bug warships warp in on you when you're all alone would make people think twice … I like it! And...

Re: How Does Avoiding the Spacelanes Break Gameplay?

This thread is quite excellent. Space is big. But the space we are interested in is the space around planetary systems :) What about ships localization detection and declaration? On our old earth, we have transponders onto every (naval) ship and plane. We even have control towers. We have radars too...

Re: How Does Avoiding the Spacelanes Break Gameplay?

The beaten track would be the most perilous route. This is totally counter-intuitive to me. As commerce is essential to systems economies, they have to secure the commercial roads around them. This is done through pseudo-military means: army and police. The least costly / most efficient way to secu...

Re: How Does Avoiding the Spacelanes Break Gameplay?

For me the concept of lanes and the concept of torus drive have been a total game/immersion killer. I just can't get around the conflict in my mind about a non-player centric Ooniverse where I can drive around in god mode while everyone else drives sluggishly in nice lines just waiting to be butche...
