Oolite Bulletins

Ok, what Draco_Caeles explains with x-tension is a bit different than what you are speaking of in oolite. I explain : In hardwar, you have 1 place. Everything exists all the time, all fights or movement or collisions are resolved in the same way wether you close or not. In the X-series there are 1 o...

Well, more precisely a game which ahd a hive of extension activity since the company which released this game got bankrupt. At first we have been hacking and upgrading things whithout any help of the developper. It is true that last year an original developper showed up and released an updated versi...

An exemple of not player centric game : Lets have a look at hardwar, a game a bit like elite, but base on Titan. There is a limited number of places to go (you fly between 6 craters, there are 200 buildings, and 50 AI. When one AI dies, an other respawns. The economy is real economy (the buildings a...

I am with Odo987 : Lasers should be top and bottom. In this case, they would really become very usefull.

Maybe in the OXP should there be an option to tell where should be the laser mounting (and thus which direction we should look at with the F1 to F4 keys)

! Nice !

As some other said, we would go quicker to list what is not on your TODO list !

Maybe it would be good if there was a generic screen in stations for OXP. Any OXP can had any new entries in it : By pressing F4 (if F4 is the key to that screen), you get a screen with a few choices given by the oxp. You can select any. Then it wil bring the screen you want. For exemple, the screen...

@milinks : Sorry. After re-reading my post (and even befor reading your answer) I thought : "Oh my god, he is gonna believe that I am TELLING him to do it." Sorry again. I was here speaking to myself. I mean : I should stop requesting things. :oops: The things you are trying to do are allr...

Yep.

So many suggestion to do... At least for my part, I should stop requesting and start messing with the code.

Yep, something to seriously consider...

Okay for the comm system (you already told that it was on your todo list. sorry to have you to repeat yourself :oops: ) This stuff I am suggesting is at the same time much more simple, but potentialy cuase of much more mess : - It simply deals with intercepting when one key is pressed, and all the h...

Yep. For example, you could get a device somehow. When meeting special craft you press "e" and you exchange some of your goods with his... While flying pressing a key you can drop a specific object in space (for example a nav boy where you've destroyed a pirate, to come bakc get the loots ...

Is it possible to have event in OXP triggerd by key press ? (which would be defined in the oxp)

That could be way to add new functionalities to your ship, or create some more interface in stations...

good job !!

Hey ! Thank you for all your hard work everybody.

Ok

The sound system currently doesn’t do loops. (The workaround used for the afterburner is kinda scary.) Loops, variants and other coolness are kinda on the drawing board, for some time after a random flash of inspiration exposes the current random buggering-everything-up bug. Maybe is it useless or ...
