Oolite Bulletins

They are banned - however I may have used missile capacity as an additional handy stat to judge a ship's general strength. Previously I tried using pitch/roll figures and any data I could get my hands on via script. I'd say the main goal of the odds generator was 1) to keep the odds at at a reasonab...

Hi all! I'm semi-retired from Oolite at the moment (too much RL to deal with) but still enjoying reading feedback on the OXPs I've made over the years. I think I may have been lazy and not scripted a distinct outcome for when you kill an opponent who's already surrendered. Instead I just re-used the...

Hiya, not been Ooliting for a long while but glad to hear commanders are still enjoying this OXP. Yeah I chose the feudal houses by taking a cut of the most high tech systems for each galaxy, but check the readme for the full list.

Great to hear you fininshed without any further issues - thanks for playing!

Ah, it's actually a bug. The question screens aren't firing properly, both in Aletius (for Yokohama) and Biraa (for Jane's). I mistakenly left in a bit of code in that I should have removed when moving the questioning mechanism to the F4 screen.

I've included a fix in an update: Iron Raven v1.4.2

Strange, you should be getting a question option when you visit the F4 screen. Have been able to ask any questions in Aletius so far? Are your save game parameters the same as they were in your earlier post: <key>mission_IR_shipment_question_key</key> <string>shipment_question_1</string> <key>missio...

That's great. By the way, if at any time something isn't happening as you'd expect, remember you can press 4 to visit the interfaces screen and view the Iron Raven mission log to read previous mission text. I've stuffed a lot of info into the mission screens and I admit it's v easy to forget some of...

Hi oolite_fan, thanks for playing! So to confirm, you're having problems when picking up the fuel sample from the shipyard in Aarzari? In theory you shouldn't be able to 'buy' the sample unless you have a free pylon as it's treated in the same way as a missile or mine. If you don't have any space yo...

Thanks, I appreciate it. Can't believe it's over 5 years now since I first started developing this OXP!

Welcome back Commander Gav.

I've found the problem - it was down to some rather inaccurate coordinates - and I've got a fix that I'll release shortly. Glad you were able to try out one of the other paths though!

EDIT - I've included the fix in a v2.5.2 available from the link in my sig.

When helping the Commies I had a separate problem. I traveled to the casino at Ergeso and Jenssen didn't appear. I didn't have the Marrett Space Corporation add-on, but since installed it and still no Jenssen. I left the system and returned and still no Jenssen. I have the Long Range Scanner instal...

Thanks both. I've subscribed to this thread so should pick up any new posts, and feel free to PM me with anything. Incidentally, the stuff in the recent Elite: Dangerous combat video is just the kind of thing I was trying to create in later parts of this mission, expect without the cool sounds and g...

OK I've looked at those specific issues and have applied a few fixes. hiasakite if you go back to Aarzari the 'back in 5 days' mission screen should trigger properly. davcefai I've tweaked the pirate conversation to make sure that first question gets answered correctly. And finally I've fixed the lo...

Sorry I've been away on holiday for a bit and out of touch with emails. I'll investigate your issues and will get back to you asap. I'll need to remind myself of the mechanics behind the OXP as I've forgotten a lot of it!

Actually I had kept the pdf and the OXP dowload separate because for some reason the pdf kept clocking in at 6MB and I wanted to keep the OXP package small. You can still get the pdf from the readme link on the website.
