Re: Faster approach to the station

That is exactly what am I talking about. Eyeball device does not work well without shaders, right :-). I tried to avoid word "above", because there s no up and down in space. It works great with ACS, because you can plan your route as soon as you arrive in the system. This is such a relief...

Re: Oolite - Life in the Frontier - REVIVAL (14/04/2018 - Release v0.10.0)

Happened again. Here is the log (Latest). Keep in mind that last entry written was about 80 minutes old. Perhaps freezing prevented it from writing latest information. Here it is: Opening log for Oolite version 1.86 (x86-64) under Linux 4.4.14 at 2018-08-08 19:39:49 +0200. 4 processors detected. Bui...

Re: Oolite - Life in the Frontier - REVIVAL (14/04/2018 - Release v0.10.0)

I am sorry I removed the mod in order to see if I would be able to dock at Zaonce without crash. Indeed, it worked. However, I am going to install the mod again. Just give me some time, please. Then I am going to try again and send you the logs. BTW, does your mod involve trumbles in some way ? Beca...

Re: Oolite - Life in the Frontier - REVIVAL (14/04/2018 - Release v0.10.0)

I tried again with same result. This time I was able to understand more of the message. It says "There is <something> on your ship. Then the game stops responding to the keys. The only additional OXP I have is "Utrumbled". Is there any other information I could provide ? Feel free to ...

Faster approach to the station

I have discovered a faster approach to the station. Here is how I do it. One needs to have shader graphics enabled. Try to visually locate the station while traveling to the planet, but before getting mass locked. It is nearly impossible without shader graphics. If you manage to spot it before getti...

Re: Oolite - Life in the Frontier - REVIVAL (14/04/2018 - Release v0.10.0)

I had a crash, Oolite got frozen and I had to kill my X server to clear it. It might be related to this expansion, although I might be wrong. I took a mission from BBS. A guy haven't heard from his family member who lives on Isinor system. I traveled to Isinor station and found nothing there. Then I...

Re: combat question

I am familiar with Javascript and modding, in general. I've done some Fallout 3 and Fallout NV mods on Nexus. Look for Askfor, if interested. Among those is the alternative main quest for Fallout 3, which is quite popular, given then fact that it was released after Fallout 4. I can't promise anythin...

Re: combat question

I have only Mining Laser in aft mount, but, after your post, I am going to place Military Laser there and move Mining Laser to right or left mount. However, question stands. What incentive one has to increase his/her own rating ? I might want to attack large trader ships for their cargo, but why wou...

Re: combat question

I'd say that running away is, generally, much easier than in Elite. In Elite it rarely worked, now I can pass through anarchy system without firing a shot with some tactics used. Also, Python, Boa and Boa Cruiser are much tougher. One should think twice before attacking lone ship. It requires fast &...

Re: fuel scoops question

Thanks everyone. My conclusion is that there is something wrong with my Oolite installation.
One last question. I am running 1.86 on Linux x64. Anyone else scooping with such configuration ?

Re: fuel scoops question

I exploded with heat shield installed in second test. What exactly is that triggers refueling ? It doesn't seem to be the distance alone. Because I was very close when exploded and scoops did not activate.

Re: fuel scoops question

Thanks, friend. Do you have injector installed ? If it is a bug, then it matters.

Re: fuel scoops question

Yes, I am talking about ship with no injector installed. With fuel scoops installed. I tried twice, as experiment.
Both times ship exploded before fuels scoops activated. Not even a little bit. Second time was with shield.
As if fuels scoops were not there at all.
