Oolite Bulletins

And again, while cruising about at Bien in Galaxy 4. This is three times within 5 minutes.

And again within a minute. This happened after an Adder sent messages about being attacked.

OK it just happened to me while docked at Teceteis in Galaxy 4

That frequency leads me to believe there's more going on here. There's only 3 ships that should spawn an officer escape pod when destroyed, and I thought I set it up that these ships only launch from SecComs when the player is in there area. For you to see it 5 times a session means these ships (or...

This happens a lot for me (say five times a session). I have to manually go into my saved game and remove the credits!

Is this easily fixable? What release do you think it will be in?

So... I was in Witch Space and dropped a Q bomb for a laugh and 50 odd kills. I then attacked the remaining Behemoth and received two Right On Commanders! I realised I had received 350 kills, and this was continuing as I kept pinging away at the Behemoth, which seemed to be indestructible (at least ...

As an alien item they are worth a lot more than the 50Cr for a kill, providing you know where to offload them, but I do agree that they should not count as a kill unless they are firing at you of course.[/quote] Agreed: usually my cargo bay is full anyway (I'd rather take the kill). I think they did...

Hello Automatic OXP updating was mentioned a couple of years ago in this thread: https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?t=1808&highlight=automatic+updates Did anything come of this? Is there a way to build updates into Oolite in a similar way to the way Firefox does it: i.e. a notification pops u...

By the way, people on this board seem to refer to Thargons as Tharglets or even Thargoid Robot Fighters. What's that all about?

Nice one. Love those navy ships, but still feel sorry for the Thargoids in Witch space, although as they always end up attacking each other...

Hello all I keep receiving the message 'You have scooped a navy officer' at random times while flying around and even once when docked at a station! When I dock with the station, I then am informed that I have rescued a rear admiral and am awarded 750 Cr. I have Galactic_Navy.oxp installed so presum...

The gun mounts can also be shot off. A few seconds of Mil Laser directed at the gun and take them out, leaving the ship toothless.

Really? Awesome!

Actually, it would be fine if the Thargoid Carrier simply pumped out some more ships: looking at the size, it could easily house two or three behemoths worth. Some plasma turrets would be nice too

What's also a bit bad about the Thargons going inactive is that the player can ram them for a kill and >= 50 Credits each. That is a very easy way to get kills when the Navy slaughters them all for you (hence I don't take advantage of it).
