Anyway the binary division method will find some culprit fast

That approach is documented at Troubleshooting Oolite.

I am hoping that Mr Flibble's work on MQTT will allow external monitors to be used, which would be even more "realistic". I too wish to see ALL the MFDs. AFAIK they're not available via MQTT (yet), and I don't know of a way to get to their output via debug. For the MQTT case, I'd hope to ...

I don’t understand. They are already on the OXP list page. Times have changed. In old days a wiki page was state of the art. Then the website was extended so OXP developers could add their extensions to a database from which a catalog file was generated. This catalog is read and presented to users ...

Well, this request is solved as I was able to recover all my OXPs. I finally tried replacing the www, with app (as suggested) on the missing ship OXP links, and bingo. Thanks to those who helped me on this. :D Now it is time to polish them a bit and then register them to the expansions catalog. The...

As we already identified that the OXP is broken: The OXP manifest demands a minimum Oolite version (https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Manifest.plist#required_oolite_version) but does not specify any maximum (https://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Manifest.plist#maximum_oolite_version). With that users a...

Try this link, I've set it to not expire but we'll have to check again in a few days just to be sure. I've read somewhere that discord uses perma-invites only on community servers nowadays.

I just checked and it worked. Should be on the website in a moment.

Well, after fixing the home directory, I'm still getting this issue.

So what is in the logfile this time?

The Extension Pack Manager in Oolite 1.90 have Cargo_Contract_Mod in obsolete version 1.5 which do not work https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=13757 contains more recent Cargo_Contract_Mod version 1.64, which should fix that Hmmm. It is not about Oolite 1.90, it is about the expansion ...

So do not trust too much, especially if you have only one source of truth.
GNN may be manipulating our view to what is theirs.

Often I thought 'what if Thargoids were not bad by nature, just badly misunderstood...'

Oolite is based on the outdated SDL library.
What might help is to migrate the code to SDL2.

There should be people with more experience on that around here.

Hell in a pinch I've seen people do some fantastic work with hotwired stream decks. Honestly with 3D printing, a little bit of soldering skill and time (the one commodity that no one has) It's amazing what you could accomplish. At some point someone will map this game onto a cockpit. That's just hu...

If you want this code to be distributed via the expansions manager there is not much left to do: - wrap up your content into an OXZ file. That essentially means create a zip archive from your oxp folder such that manifest.plist is in the root directory (and all the other files in appropriate directo...
