Oolite Bulletins

“Thank you” for explaining! 1) Clearing up odds and ends: the Integrated targeting system is a vanilla game piece of equipment 2) Some of the oxps were produced by our game lead developers (aegidian, cim & a_c). These are very definitely not “cheats”, adding complexity and not making things easi...

More generally, how do the commie insectoids think of themselves? Insects who happen to be commie - or commies who happen to be insects? Commies are always commies first, comrade. Communist theory says that anyone who puts any other loyalty ahead of the communist party is "racist". But wh...

Thanks but I don't like mods. The only mods I've made are a dot in the middle of the crosshair and I've slightly changed the HUD. Gosh! Good for you! A general distaste of mods? Horror at finding 1,100 of them? Or a preference for classic Oolite? But the notes on avoiding the space lane and the roc...

While roaming the station any escape key was disabled

Isn’t that more realistic? While roaming my house, I have the same issue!

If stations are a possibility, then an obvious question is “do all species systems get them?”. Eg.: If a system is insectoid and communist does it get both the generic insectoid (Wasps?) and the generic commie stations (astrogulag/CZGF/SLAPU)? Or just one set? More generally, how do the commie insec...

May of the political systems have specific stations of their own (royal hunting lodges, SLAPUs, Imperial AstroFactories, etc). What about the species? There is Wasps with its own station. And PAGroove's variants which you added to SFEP. But how about lobstoid stations? And. Species has a list of all...

Couldn't resist adding some hunting lodge options, perhaps add some missions or other activities link to gossip overheard in the rooms.

When do we all get to try it out?

If you are willing to add some OXPs to your game, you will find a greater choice of ships there. (See, for example, Fastest Ships (Oolite) which is not quite up-to-date). Looking at your 2 linked YouTube videos you might find the following of interest: 1) Market Observer : adds market comparison sta...

Translator:
Maybe there are some places where you can always get an easy job?

I have maximum reputation in transporting goods and passengers, but I would like to work on parcels.

I would presume that a_c and Switeck are most likely to know the answer to this one. Sorry that I can’t help.

I like it!

How goes it?

Been trying to figure out the big maps, all 255 nodes in their x,y locations. Can not figure which attribute(s) need tweaks to get anything like the ...GalaxyO[0-7] vector maps. Niiiice. 8) Using ... -Kneato ... or maybe ... model=mds ... getting slightly legible maps with just a tiny subset eg. 0,...

As regards the decline, I'm taking the Oolite website blurb as gospel: Among the seven trillion people who are - at least officially - Cooperative citizens, you are nobody. So far, anyway. You've got a ship, some weapons, and enough spare cash to get started - and one day, you might get the fame, we...

This looks most immersive!

Finally managed to look it over. Well done!

I've a number of suggestions, but need to wait until I've a decent internet connection, Sorry!
