Oolite Bulletins

Hello, I hope I am posting in the right forum; I am trying to figure out how to remove a specific subentity from a ship, when another subentity is destroyed, since you cannot attach a subentity to another and both get destroyed in one go. I have this code that I recycled mostly from Eric Walsh'es Gr...

I have uploaded a little update, since the views were not yet optimized, also added views for new starters.

Cobra Pack Beta released, see first post for download and enjoy.

Halleluja, that worked; thank you Spara.

<thumbs up>

Yes something like that, only not when the ship dies, but only when the subentity on that ship does. Here is the javacript that I used from Eric's version of Griff's Sidewinder with the destroyable entities: It works great, but I would like to add some funtionality to it: this.name = "hpc_co3_s...

Hello all, I found this line in a script file of an oxp that I have installed, I think it is the falcon and kestrel one. this.ship.spawn("explosive_shrapnel", 6); Instead I would like it to spawn a cargo container with a random content. I just lack the knowledge to write the correct code, ...

:) 3934 Lines worth 117 kb. and since we're on the subject: here's a rundown of the files up until now: 46 unique reusable subents (around 900 KB altogether) 3 unique subents (not for use on other ships) (engines and housing) 49 Kb 1 unique hull. 796 kb The whole oxp , textures included is around 2 ...

Here's a small video of testing the ship on my onboard intel video card and also on the Nvidia. There were no framerate drops in gameplay with either of them. A test release will be somewhere tomorrow or Thursday; As you can all see this is the "bare knuckles" Cobra Mk3 without LCB and mis...

Will have a look at it later,

I also noticed that the Boolean functions in the latest version don't work as expected. So I'll share the version I use:

No worries, Stella is good at any time of day.

'Later

New screens on first post, release coming soon.

Just for curiosity sake, may I ask what your poly count is at? };] At the moment you can see the hull polycount in the first screenshot on the previous page: 2072 Faces for the hull and 1289 faces in 17 different reusable greebles. There will be a few more greebles coming, and then I will rebuild t...

Yes indeed :D , This is done in the actual real world industry too, so why not do the same in Oolite. It takes more time to create the first ship and all its detail, but once that is done, you will not need to "reinvent" detail every ship, just put some quality development time in cockpit,...

Thank you gentlemen, :wink: About processor requirements, I am not really sure, and since I am running Oolite on a pretty heavy machine, I am not really the one suited to benchmark framerates. I have however dissasembled the ship (and some of the hi-poly subentities) so I could reuse them on future ...

Awesome idea, waiting for this one.

Updated post on first page,

Enjoy.
