Oolite Bulletins

Scrap that, just realised I’ve completed it! Doh!

Good shout. I have the wormhole scanner, but not the patience to hang around waiting to hitch hike! Is there a ‘give commander more patience.oxp’ yet?

Probably something obvious, but I can’t seem to get a mission to start. Taranis oxp installed, and installed outrider oxp last night, but on docking at HQ, no screen to start a mission. I couldn’t see Navy Frigate in the manager, did I miss it or is that installed with the main oxp. Any other reason...

Fuel level was unavoidable, it was a 6.9ly jump with no alternative route.
The only thing I wondered, there was a cobra already there when I arrived, and we both survived the skirmish, but he didn’t jump out, but started shooting at me instead! So he didn’t last very long I’m afraid..!

So this afternoon, after an unplanned misjump, I found myself surrounded by the usual thargoids. My ship is ironass, so I managed to take them all out, then hoovered up about 30 thargons, before realising I had no way out. No escape pod, no fuel, no electronic thumb, no hyperdrive, empty range finde...

Time to resurrect an old thread, as one can never have enough of these anecdotes! So I’d picked up a trumble from some nefarious so and so. I'm aware the best trumbles are deep fried ones, so off I head. Not having dealt with one very recently, im out of practice and need a couple of attempts. Each ...

scrap that, sorted! Moral of story, don't rush!

thanks for this! would have taken a bit of finding! Having tweaked my OXP (Scoop Cam needed...) it doesn't seem to be loading the tweaked one. And yes, Shift held down until spinning Mk3! Do I need to uninstall it from the Managed Addons, so the only version is the tweaked one?

Returning after 4 years off, and either I'm being monumentally dumb or something has changed! So I've downloaded various addons via the Built in manager, and I want to tweak one of the shipdata.plist files. However, I can't find any! My addons folder is empty... The only shipdata file is the origina...

I'll check, but unless I upgraded by accident, I should be running standard military lasers fore and aft. it has been known for me to purchase an upgrade by accident though!

D

that would make sense, except I tested it under condition green, with no missiles or even any other ships on the scanner, and it was still reducing energy. Shields stayed at full, and nothing else was active, such as turrets, missile screen or anything else.

Its possible my vortex is a pacifist!

New to the vortex, and loving it so far - a definite step up from my Falcon! I've just noticed, and I don't recall if it always did it, that firing the lasers also reduces my energy banks, at quite an appreciable rate! Definitely not getting shot as I'm Condition Green! Shields are full and only dam...

thought i'd resurrect an old thread - I don't believe no one has been a candidate for an award for two years! Mine is not a true Darwin, as I haven't removed myself from the Gene Pool, but I have probably cost myself a small fortune! So I'm making my way across the galaxy with lots of contracts of v...

ok, that explains that - although doesn't explain where my money went, as I definitely had around 150000 credits only a couple of jumps previously, as I was contemplating buying an escort but the delivery time was too long (I'm on a delivery deadline at the moment). I can't think of anything that wo...
