Oolite Bulletins

p is the number of collision checks done using a simple collision radius check, performed away from the player. c is the number of collisions using a more precise algorithm, performed within range of the player. Range is a value depending on the collision radius of objects being checked against eac...

Hutts: large frogs.

Cim's "SOTL" OXPs need to be loaded in a specific order. "Song_of_the_Labyrinth_Startup_1.1" needs to be loaded first, and then either "SOTL_Exploration_0.4" or "Song_of_the_Labyrinth_Altmap_1.0". Cim somehow managed to ensure that it would happen in just that...

What do "p625" and "c35" mean?


New wiki page:  Frame rate

I've just found the source for my repeatedly expressed conviction that Viper Interceptors are only found in Corporates. It is here: Oolite Ship Roles - Police This does not account for why I see Viper Interceptors in Anarchies. I presume it is a function of my OXP cocktail mix. Or perhaps the wiki d...

Funnily enough nothing changes - that's pretty much what I'm looking for this time round too. Sorry - I forgot to mention the (non-Feudal) Systems OXPs. But then you did have them back in 2010-1. These massively add to my game - Dictators OXP , Commies , Anarchies OXP . They give a different flavou...

Paging Aegidian! Paging Aegidian! Thy eminence! We wish to add your voice to our games! We have your ship (see just above), but you are uncharacteristically mute! Any chance of some spoken responses for some/any of the following? a list of catch-phrases for communication with the player, ordered by...

For the first (OXP loading order), see my response under SW Economy.

For the second (multiplayer capability), go and bug Hiran! He was working on Nexus which does just that.

The original Oolite was written for the AppleMac by Aegidian in 2003. In 2006 it was then adapted for Windows by DAJT and adapted for Linux by Winston. So each of the main versions is a little different - and the loading order of OXPs is one of the areas where these differences show themselves. So f...

2) Station Dock Control ... So while this OXP gives a lot of "life" into the game, it also creates a problem because it sucks having to wait for the non-planetary stations to poop out all of their ships before docking in order to avoid a collision, and there's no way to auto-dock. I used ...

Found this: In terms of style of play, I am only just beginning (although I played Elite many years ago). I guess trading to begin with. I would like any OXPs that add eye candy or improve sound. I was reminded of how difficult it was to dock manually when I first started, so I guess any OXPs that h...

A quick one: Thanks for the tip. While you are on, I have no idea as to what to do with the javascript for increasing turbulence and the javascript for changing the filters. 1) Where do they go? In the same javascript file with the landing site names, or another one or two files? 2) If in the same,...

After a long hiatus (my last post here was in 2011!) , I am back so I guess this is reintroducing myself. Mike - played Elite on C64 all the way through Frontier and FFE on PC and some similar games like Freelancer. I want to try Oolite again after such a long time to see what's changed, but unfort...

Причина есть. Я в програмировании не разбираюсь. Тексты в кодах нахожу интуитивно. Если что то начинает работать не правильно - начинаю переводить заново. По этой причине и обращаюсь к знающим людям. Если мне покажут на примере, например двух-трёх товаров, как добавить описание, по аналогии попытаю...

Есть возможность сделать чтоб "SW_Economy" при обнаружении "More_Moolah" использовала описание товаров из него? Либо добавить в "SW_Economy" подробное описание каждого товара, что думаю предпочтительнее) А то товаров куча уже, и время от времени добавляются новые. А оп...
