Question is : can we repair this station?

For the moment, nothing important to be reported. But what do you think ? Are you enjoying Hermitage? Does it add to your game? That, surely is what is really important - not my wittering on about red lights... I wouldn't have installed Hermitage if I'd find it useless. On the contrary, it adds a l...

For the moment, nothing important to be reported.
Besides, Cholmondely is doing a great job, in that matter:

I archived ManagedAddons and deleted Jadeshadow and Hermitage from AddOns.

Jadeshadow? What is it? What does it do? Where did it come from?

OOPSIE...
It's a Ship you can get in the Wiki OXPs List.

FINALLY! (About time, dammit! :x ) This time, I decided to build a proper installation. I archived ManagedAddons and deleted Jadeshadow and Hermitage from AddOns. And I installed the next version. And I proceeded category by category, tested between categories until I get to the Ambience Gategory. ...

Back to the "JiCey is cursed" thing Thinking the problem had some conflicting relationship with RandomShipsNames and Random Ship/Player name, I removed them from the game. The messages I obtained, when back to the Menu, were like "they are part of Norby's Ambiance Collection" an...

It was supposed to be easy, right? The "easy" part is in reference to how easy it would be to run the Hermitage (Abilama has 12 nearby systems, meaning there would be a lot of traffic, and it's TL12, meaning easy access to hi-end equipment). But I'll issue a patch shortly that will move t...

met a few ships on the run, they ignored me, for that I was grateful, and I arrived in the sun's vincinity after a loooooong jump... *cough* (hum-hum!) I spent about half an hour, my eyes glued to the screen in hope I could find this bloody rock, searching and searching... ... and I decided I neede...

ABILAMA take #4 This time, I chose to fly to the 2 buoys. They were close to each other and it wasn't long until I found them. The thing was they were "pointing" to the very same Rock Hermit. The informations I had from it were it was called "Carly's xsomethingx when out in space and...

ABILAMA take #2 Before leaving, I saved a second time my player's datas and... ...like in #1 , I left the station without hesitation. Once in space at full speed and flying to the Sun, I use the Compass. The first Rock Hermit that appeared was near the Sun. As I suspected, there has been someone lo...

After a proper re-installation of Hermitage and an update of all the OXPs I had, I decided to test it seriously. So, this time, I chose not nto cheat and take the easy start . (...and now, I'm wondering what phkb means when he thinks : "Easy". I am even suspecting he is a sadistic mind in ...

Progress: I found a scenario with the installed equipment where I was allowing multiple copies of something to be installed (in this case, energy units). What I hadn't catered for was the need to individually identify and work with all those items. I'd being using the equipment key I'd defined, but...

Progress update: I've implemented a slightly deeper processing system. Previously, if an item required regular commodities in order to operate (eg the reactor), those commodities were required each day. I've now extended this so that one batch of processing commodities can run the device for a vari...
