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...

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.

Re: Metafiction: Dialogues on the Lore of Xlite
Point of interest: G1 Aona According to the Dark Wheel, Aona is underwater with only the tips of volcanoes poking out above the waves. But the three textures (Vanilla game, Povray & Stranger's FPO) show none of this. (It is missing from BPlanets) Reference: Suggestion: Aquaspace aka H2Oolite (20...

Re: Am annoyed about fixed lasers
Hiran - I'm not sure I quite understand your point. But if I do, have you tried turrets on any of your ships?
Yasen-N Turret
You will need a ship that is big enough.

Re: Physical Dimensions of "Space Trader's Flight Training Manual"?
We apparently started using metric paper sizes such as A3/A4 back in 1971, two years before Edward Heath joined the EEC. And thirteen years before Elite.
What did we use before that? Post Folio? Post Quarto?
