Oolite Bulletins

I get a message that the station doesn't accept fugitives or something like that. Fully appreciating the irony, I manually dock and get slapped with a 5,000 cr. fine. Ouch. :D I'm aware of that problem, unfortunately there's nothing (AFAIK) that I can do to fix it. Also, in a somewhat related vein,...

Latest stable on linux.
It doesn't bother me all that much, just a curiosity.
I don't know if it's related but I also get stars in front of large objects like planets and space-stations.

I get that too. It's not spacedust, I can see the background stars through the planet.

Not even worth a single reply?

Just some requests to improve the handling of cargo in scripts: Changes to existing methods: awardSpecialCargo: <amount> <description of cargo> Awards the specified amount of the specified cargo if it exists in descriptions.plist. This method would require some way to specify the weight of the speci...

That would involve writing internet connectivity into Oolite. I that really necessary?

Having a list of the OXP's installed would be easy enough, seeing as the stderr.txt file lists the ones installed during startup.

Something that I have noticed is that there doesn't seem to be a repeat on the Stock Market screen for when you're buying/selling goods. Could one be implemented, or even a way (Ctrl-crsr, perhaps) of buying/selling all the stock available, to the limit of one's cargo hold? My wrist is getting tire...

Sweet! It's lookin' good, Murgh!

Using shift-c to dock with carriers now makes you dock sideways.

I can access it fine.

Maybe instead of having a completely different shipyard there could just be an extra column that has the year of manufacture.

Just make sure you link to the OXPs page on Oosat2 not the file. That way when someone updates their OXP we don't have to go and change all the links on the wiki.

(I actually do think the ability to add factions might add to the game - as long as those clamouring for them realise that other, wider, priorities exist, that will probably come first.) I for one, certainly do recognise that this is nowhere near being top priority stuff. The main reason I posted t...

I don't really understand that logic. If it's more fun to let your imagination fill in the gaps, then why bother with things like legal rating? If a ship attacks you and you never attack anyone, then it must be a pirate, etc. Why bother with the game at all? Just kick back and daydream. Factions are...

Disclaimer: This idea would require quite a few changes, so it's not exactly a request but a discussion about a possible future direction. The way I see it, not everyone in the ooniverse is going to be a freelance pirate/trader/hunter. What I think would be cool is if there were a standard (non-OXP)...
