Oolite Bulletins

Sometimes, size does, in fact, matter. Especially when it comes to games that take place entirely in space, and you know, space is huge. I somehow believe that if you're playing a space game like Oolite, immersion is something quite important. And to that end, the screen size helps with immersion. I...

Escape pod? Just to touch base on this one... it turns out that if you buy the Escape Pod equipment item, the text also states "...plus some comprehensive coverage for your ship and equipment". So I installed an OXP which gives me more credits at the beginning, bought this item and let my...

Why not simply hit Alt+248 - 360°

Because that's never worked for me, perhaps?

Atom is my favorite text and code-editor, as it lets you install some mandatory plugins, such as Minimap, Symbol Outline, and remote FTP editing. So far I found it to be quite the satisfactory alternative to Sublime. Plus, it's free, hackable, and based on Node.js.

All I really need, and what I'm listening to when I'm undocking from a station:

MusicHub.fm: Vocal Trance

OK so... how playable is the Rescale branch? Can one use it for "normal" gameplay already? If so, is it based on the 1.84 tree, or does it also use the current branch with the planet shaders? I'd really like to try it out.

Wow. That looks amazing! Since its a generator, does that mean you can go very close and it will still look highres?

If I understand Perlin noise generators correctly, this is precisely what you can do.

News on the HUD... I have begun implementing it into an OXP, and this is the current result. The scanner also changes colors depending on the situation. The screens on the left will be a built-in MFD (the big one), equipped items on the smaller screen on the left, and Station Aegis on the small gree...

Thanks all for the hints, will try that

So I was just lucky enough for an Adder to show up in the Buy Ship screen in a station, base price about 82,000 CR. I selected it, and with my trade-in value I would have had about 40,000 CR left. Then it told that if I'd buy it, I have 0 CR - because I get all the other funky stuff. Is it possible ...

I know that the spinning Cobra appears to be some kind of trademark of the Elite/Oolite project and name. But maybe, for some of you, this is a little bit boring, so I decided to shape things up a little, by adding a list of the default ships to the start routine, and have it pick one, then spin tha...

I then assume the numbers for govs and TLs start at 0, not at 1. Good to know Thanks Spara.

Sorry to revive this thread from the dead... I'm just wondering if I'm completely stupid, or if I'm missing anything. So if interpret the Monasteries correctly, they should show up in TL11+ and Confederacy+ systems. I am in one, and do not find a monastery. So... is there a special criteria as to wh...
