Re: Navigation Beacons MFD

Wiki page now up

The icons/quick facts section is included and seems correct to me, but is currently "blanked out".

Re: Introduce Yourself.

Looking forward to sharing time & Oolite queries with you. How goes it? And have you tried Phkb's latest yet? PlanetFall2.oxz - v2.5 The guts of the mod. PlanetFall_Resources.oxz - v1.0 All the images and textures. FeudalPlanetFall.oxz - v1.1 Update for Feudal Systems (there's no change in this...

Re: Station sizes on the wiki vs the dat files

https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Dodecahedron_Station_(Oolite) - written by Murgh (our beloved wine-wallah) in 2006 https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Dodecahedron_Station_(classic) - written by Dr Beeb in 2010 Seems you are spot on. It makes good sense that the more expensive stations (subsidised b...

Re: Lave OXP

Some thoughts on the above. The initial quite from Disembodied is crucial to what I feel is the core of the Ooniverse. That massive gap between the planetary societies and the spacefaring community. I think most worlds are probably unaware that there is a functional space society milling about abov...

Re: 1pm 7th July 2024 - Oolite Anniversary Party (London)

Daddyhoggy is interested in finding out more and popping back into the forum, but he registered here with an email address that lapsed a few years ago. Do we have any administrative staff that could help him change his email address to a new one? I can provide contact details if necessary. Murgh ha...

Re: A question of lore

... apologies for the resurrection of an old conversation Personally speaking, many of the old conversations here are quite fascinating and could well do with a decent resurrection. The only person who seems to have cared muchly otherwise was dear old Smivs, who's sadly not been around for quite so...

Re: A question of lore

The two well-developed versions of the lore - Selezen's & Cim's - both imply that the inhabitants of the Eight came from elsewhere. Neither seem to discuss the GS's - but Selezen's views would have been historically tinged by his wish to incorporate Frontier From what I recall of Selezen's acco...

Re: Planetfall 2.0 (probably)

I'm prepping to add this to the DM. However, I'd value some input on the best approach to take. At the moment, I've kept the identifier from the original Planetfall ("oolite.oxp.Thargoid.Planetfall"), so the new version is a straight upgrade to the old one. However, I've made some radical...

Re: Science Fiction Trivia

Does this count? From Sector1/Digebiti - look under "fiction" Other failed exports include the silk top hat, the tricorn and the pith helmet. Whilst hat-wearing is all the rage on Digebiti itself, and hats are worn by gentlemen of all ranks and none (not to mention the ladies), the particu...

I am wondering whether it is possible to 'replay' your situation.

What is your OS? Version of Oolite? Installed OXPs? And can you share your savegame?
Installed OXPs are given above - the lo-o-o-ong post!

Re: Hull damage

changing your save file's <key>ship_trade_in_factor</key> following value to <integer>100</integer> really does not fix it?

Re: 1pm 7th July 2024 - Oolite Anniversary Party (London)

Surely participating in such a party would be an unparalleled experience (for me). But it takes me near three months (ideal) only to get a visa... But I don’t give up on this idea - besides, one pilot invited me to visit for tea ;) How about organising a "Roolite" do somewhere closer to y...

Re: oolite.space on web.archive.org

One presumes that there is only so much space for stuff at web.archive.org

The archived sites which I've accessed tend to have too little information to be worthwhile - Oosat 2 (only the one page) & Dizzy's backup site.
