Re: Alien Systems OXZ

Your first code block is the one that is causing me concern. My current thinking is that the only way to make it work is to do a long array that contains all of the Stations that the Messages should appear at. There is no equivalent for system.mainStation that would encompass all of the Stations in ...

Re: Alien Systems OXZ

Is there a way to get the Messages to appear at all of the possible Stations in a System instead of only at the Main Station? Have several vague ideas on how this might be accomplished but before the Tweaking Experiments begin would like the opinion of some better JavaScript writers than myself. My ...

Re: Witchdrive engine malfunction

If memory serves a Manual Misjump can only be triggered with the Pitch Up Keyboard Control. Pitching up with a Joystick will NOT cause a misjump. Unless that has been changed and my memory does NOT serve.

Re: BBC Classic Elite Keyboard Controls

Another alternative might be to invest in a relatively cheap Joystick. The Logitech Extreme 3D Pro has more than enough Buttons, Axis, plus a Throttle to get you going. It is also comes in fairly cheap at around $30.00 U.S. If you continue to do the homework on Oolite v1.91 and up you will eventuall...

Re: Cargo contracts

Have a look HERE and HERE. If the Library OXZ is installed along with these two linked OXZs then it may be a simple matter of configuring the proper variables via the Library's F4 screen options to have Cargo Contracts show up where you want or expect them to.

Re: Science Fiction Trivia

This is related to my previous post's attempt at humor. A quickie, single answer question, while we wait for a proper entry. Name the TV show that had an Anthropomorphic Vegetable as an adversary for a single episode. Two of the major stars of the show got written out of the next several episodes as...

Re: Help with HUD Edit

Everything you need to know should be HERE . The x and y coordinates were the hardest part for me to get my head around. Do have some notes on how they exactly work should you need them. A Development Version of Oolite might make things even easier as it might be possible to do some Console Magic an...

Re: Science Fiction Trivia

The definition being that Vegetables grow in the ground while Fruits grow above ground. Would that not make The Peanut a Vegetable? By this definition The Tomato is a Fruit and The Potato is a Vegetable. However, does any of this apply to anything defined as a Nut? Would The Coconut be a Fruit while...

Re: Ship for Bounty hunter

Bounty Hunting for a Large Profit is difficult as most Bounties tend towards the lower end of the scale. It is still a worthwhile pursuit provided you have a VERY Iron Ass Ship that allows your Elite piloting skills to take on and beat Large Pirate Groups of ten or more. Even at that level your prof...

Re: Regarding the stutter I'm experiencing (visible in my videos)

usefulMFDs can create problems as it is in a constant state of updating itself. The JavaScript coding which allows it to do this may not be optimal but that is just speculation on my part. It is Useful though (especially if you TWEAK it to show just what you want it to show) so here is the trick to ...

Re: Science Fiction Trivia

Marvel Comics are full of such things. Perhaps the best example is Jean Grey of the X-Men. While returning to Earth in a faulty Space Shuttle the X-Men are sure to die as they enter the atmosphere unless they huddle in a protected part of the ship. Problem is who then flies the Shuttle as the auto p...
