Re: The future for the Mac build

I've now been using this version solidly for a month. 1) No more infuriating problems with the sound 2) No crashes 3) The only minus is the frame rate diving - which happens when there are 600+ entities in the system and I'm in combat. But I'm also running a whole host of horrendously complex OXPs l...

Re: Marett Vol2 - new ships

Would anyone, perchance, have copy of this one?

Or is it all included in [EliteWiki] The Assassins Guild OXP?



And note the reference to shadering the Anaconda!

Re: Tinkerer's Workshop - OXP tweaking for fun and profit!

Finally, found some time to refresh my Gui coding and found a simple solution: this.guiScreenChanged = function(to, from) { if(to == "GUI_SCREEN_EQUIP_SHIP" && player.ship.dockedStation.primaryRole === "baakili_trader") { var options = { "01_DONE": "Sorry ...

Re: "NPC detection" range

If you get time could perhaps list the AI code needed to have a ship follow through a wormhole? Presumably lots of stuff in the old OXPs ( Resistance Commander et al - but in the old AI format). But Norby's Fighters has this fightersAI.plist (dated June 2016, just before the first version of the OX...

Re: "NPC detection" range

The code does a lot of things past scanner range. From Fighters : The King has a strong scanner with double range (50km) which keep up target lock far from the mother and at hyperjump can follow you into the wormhole from this far. The slowest fighter but a King rarely retreat and Injectors can hel...

Re: AgX - New alternative SDR tone mapper

Just to say, a_c, I'm utterly convinced that your incessant plugging away, improving the graphics over the past few years, is the main reason why there are now some several thousand people who have watched Phkb's new film on Reddit. It will be interesting to see how many downloads are generated! The...

Re: The Feudal States

Strange, I'm running 1.80 and the Prinz are a pushover. I guess it's about tactics... The duel starts at some ~5 km distance, so if you hit injectors the moment he goes hostile, the Prinz won't have time to land significant damage before you get to close range. And AI isn't smart enough to cut thro...

Re: An Ethics OXP?

Sometimes when I see someone get shot down by the cops in a Dictatorship system and bail out in an escape pod, after scooping the pod I jump systems before handing them over at a station. I figure that if they're a genuine criminal GalCop'll deal with them, while if they were unjustly persecuted by...

Re: Tutorial

There's a new Oolite video up on YouTube where the Tutorial is worked through. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEfvKmFHyM4 There seem to be one or two confusions - and it also seems to have been developed further since I did it. Might it be an idea to add in one or two of the better OXPs for beginne...
