Re: Xeptatl's Sword

Thanks chaps. Yes, that link - the pictures of the coriolis - that's what I get. So the Intel chip set can't cope, is it? Cheerio for now. Richard.

Re: Xeptatl's Sword

Hi - thanks for the comments. Smivs From what you said I think the problem was caused by not having a GalDrivePod mounted on an active pylon at the time of making the jump It's possible but I was fairly sure I had it on an active pylon. The target is not the spikes, but the tiny red heat exchanger a...

Re: Xeptatl's Sword

Hello again. This was a good OXP - thanks! One quick query about the end of this mission, now that I've read the xeptatl's sword web page and realised I didn't quite do what was suggested in the help page. I found the Annihilator and went to it. I am not sure that it destroyed the Thunder Child, tho...

Re: Xeptatl's Sword

I did get there. In typical computer fashion, though, after I complained it worked perfectly. Who says computers aren't intelligent? I tried about ten times and went from Inbe to Edmainer then all of a sudden - after having complained - it worked out. Ta. Richard.

Re: Xeptatl's Sword

So far so good - nice mission! I do, however, have a bit of a problem. After 35 or so updates in the mission update list I get to a point where I need to be at Inbe then do a g-jump to get to . . . er, Edmainer - every time. The proper destination still has a cross on it. Actually I did manage it on...

Re: equipment randomness

Hi. Thanks for looking. I didn't remove the ore processor OXP, it was in the appropriate folder all the time, getting quite regular use. I didn't realise it wasn't on the ship until I docked at that planet (Dicege?). I also had to buy the q-drive again although as far as that goes there was a bit of...

equipment randomness

Hello. I am not sure where to put this one but it's some kind of bug - maybe. I am currently in G4 doing Deposed. So far so good but on a visit to, whatsitsface, Dicebe (TL14 on the left) the equipment shop told me I could buy, er, things I already bought. Okay . . . no, not really. I noticed simila...

Re: To Catch a Thargoid OXP

Hello again Thanks for the responses! The AI recursion error could possibly be the issue. Can you please download this file, which contains a replacement AI file and a replacement shipdata.plist file (which should fix the missile launch position error). Replace the files in question, then restart Oo...

Re: To Catch a Thargoid OXP

Thanks again. I'll try docking at a main station withough shift and see what it does. The "previous" log I posted was the one from the crash (the times are about right). I played after that so presume "latest" log was from the (no-crash) period of playing I did after the crash; p...

Re: To Catch a Thargoid OXP

Thanks Thargoid! A long post here. There's another thing I'll mention before pasting the log and answering the other points. The docking computer doesn't like the navy station in the OXP at all. Okay, I tend to do a shift-C at a main station so haven't observed its behaviour recently but it really h...

Re: To Catch a Thargoid OXP

Hello. Good so far, the OXP - nice one! Done the hunting and the defence of the station and am now off to blow up the stargate or whatever it is. Unfortunately I've run into a problem a couple of times - Oolite vanishes without a trace. It's not clear whether it's TCAT but the events coincide with m...

Re: Ionics.oxp

Thanks guys. I'll fly around a bit more. Presumably if I get fed up with it after the whole thing's finished, deleting the destination isn't a problem. Ta.

Re: Ionics.oxp

Hi. I wonder if someone can help me out, probably only a minor problem. I got started with Ionics, got the Funnelweb attack mission and killed it, got back to the station and docked, got 15 grand. All good stuff but the mission destination on Rimaza stayed there. I then went off to the Link place (n...

Re: Rock Hermit Locator add on

I noticed an issue with Rock Hermits but I'm not sure if the effect is caused by the OXP or by Oolite itself. Let's say I jump into a new system, and the Locator tells me there is a Hermit. If I dock at the main station and save, then reload the game, the Hermit may disappear. The converse is also ...

Re: Oolite vanished from the USB drive?

Hi, thanks for responding. The drive is only partly full, about 15% with 3.5 GB or so free. I agree, can't see it's oolite either but as there were a few things that were odd all at once (drive not used a lot, even newer laptop, only oolite folders affected, no apparent problems with the drive in ut...
