The “Exploration” page on our wiki has a few ideas.

Why Edzaar? Are you a dedicated devotee of the Church of Giles the Creator? And at a ceremony in the Grand Cathedral on Tibecea you enjoyed an epiphany on approaching the Blessed Barque, with St. Phibo of Nacci instructing you to leave your home, your planet, your galaxy and make your way to Edzaar ...

Why Edzaar?

Did you have a tiff with your inamorata who, in a state of pique, decamped, was captured by slavers and then ended up being sold to a visiting Edzaarian tycoon who returned home with her?

Why Edzaar? Did you buy some obscure raffle ticket from a traveling tout ... and then discover that you have won ... but need to go there in person to collect your prize? A collection of ludicrously luminous lobstoid kneecaps whose oldest originals predate the creation of GalCop and have been the su...

Someone asked about joystick configurations earlier in the thread. So here's mine. Thank you! I have a Thrustmaster TM4. Not enough buttons (as I find the keyboard anti-immersive), and it soon developed a drunken bias to steer to the right, but the feel of it! Nice and smooth and chunky (but light ...

Welcome to the boards! Why Edzaar? Is it the original dynastic home of your lineage from which you were cruelly evicted several generations ago? Do you seek to locate your lost relatives and view the ancestral manse? While G1 is the most expanded of the Octant (followed by G7 and possibly G8), the v...

I'm in the IRC room right now, and the topic line is massively out-of-date. Do we know who tends to run that? Umm... we're now on this website, but at the Whisky Bar end of it. That part of town took a nose dive (you would not believe how grotty it got!) and so Timer took the initiative and moved u...

I'm presuming that this "Griff's Krait" is different from the one listed on our Expansions Manager: if you haven't already got it grab Eric Walch's update of this oxp https://app.box.com/shared/i9aznk80x9/1/41129188/440935708 rather than my release - Eric's update has some amazing scriptin...

Now what? It's a lot of coding for a novelty item you'll do once. Where's the story value? Two things immediately come to mind. * Rock Hermits á la Donaldson's Gap series - you can deliver and or pick up messages/light-weight items. Or deal personally with the hermit who will then deliver goodies i...

Just musing about Anaconda Liners - and other ships with scoops fitted. And Oolite code limitations. Could one stick oneself in a spacesuit/escape capsule/cargo container with life support etc and be scooped up by and thus "visit" that second scooping ship? Reference: Astronaut Edited to A...

Greetings to all denizens of the 8 charts! Been a long-time lurker here and a sporadic Ooliter since 2014 or thereabouts. Apart from MS FS9, Oolite is the only 'game' that consistently keeps me returning to it. That's some feat on the part of the developers, and so finally I express my thanks and a...

My understanding is that the logos would be of the planetary Corporations, rather than of the planetary governments. And I'd expect to see them on stations, RHs's, trading fleets and cargo pods. But I can see the argument for your planetary logos on the local vipers. But perhaps after one has played...

Along the same lines, I mean.

G2:

LARAISSONIAN LINERS?

CEINERIAN CRUISERS?
