Oolite Bulletins

Within the oolite universe you can't tell market prices until you are docked. You also can't tell market prices in neighbouring systems. What about target a system on the map, and market prices reflects a prediction of prices at the targeted system. Also when no system is targeted, targeting a dock-...

After I had docked at a station I was asked if I would like to by an outpost for 750000Cr + 250000Cr tax. I have been searching the system yet I can't find my station. Promises of free fuel sounded nice but have I been ripped off for 1000000Cr by some dodgey interstella con artist? I am now 'Jamerso...

Added spoken feedback, and list the commands with "what can i say?"

Just found out each key press in a macro needs a 100ms delay to work. Save position now works, working on the rest!

I went to Maplin Elcteronics and bought myself a micro sized bluetooth earpiece for £6.95 and got that working with my PC as a sound device. Fired up glovePIE and ran my script as is...... and it works really nicely. Now I havn't even lookled at calibrating the windows 7 VR yet but I'm flying and ab...

Yeah, that's a glovePIE licence issue. GlovePIE is a nice piece of code however and easy to program.

I think I should maybe develop the Sheepdog flight control system v1 for those pilots with a damaged joystick!
