Oolite Bulletins

Yet I am wondering why you put so much effort into the 'distribution' part. Why a wrapper script if the debug console is under your control and one or two lines in the source code could make the application load the configuration from another place? I do understand that having an icon, a readme and...

All good. Noone said it is perfect the way it is, or that it has to stay that way. You are still free to chip in all your improvements. :-) Oh, alright then :D This is for Linux x86_64. (It occurs to me the archive file names ought to reflect architecture in future). My scratchings in github arrive...

I think I spotted the issue. There's an update for Feudal PlanetFall2 Customisations in the DM now. Can you update that one and see what happens?

That's fixed it

oolite.space still has links to the older v1.6 console in the downloads page. This should be updated. The packaging has also changed. Previously we had one package for both Windows and Linux, now it is one package per platform. This has to also be updated on the website. Here's my take on that: Spe...

First thing: Active script: PlanetFall2 2.5 Version 2.6 is in the download manager. Probably won't make a difference, but worth updating. Can you add this line of code to "planetFall2_worldScript.js" at around line 984 : log(this.name, "checking condition script for " + pfKeys[i...

I'm seeing this in the debug console on loading my savegame: Exception: TypeError: tempalloy[0].script.allowSpawnShip is not a function Active script: PlanetFall2 2.5 planetFall2_worldScript.js, line 985: allowed = tempalloy[0].script.allowSpawnShip(pfKeys[i]); And this in the log: 15:59:52.519 [scr...

Delete your post! Quick! Do you have any idea at all as to what you are letting yourself in for? the Chalice of Doom? AFK last night, popped out for a drink and ended up hanging on to the bar to prevent it from leaving me. Just woke in time for tea and terror. Image prophetically deleted from origi...

- but I will accept the Avengers universe Avengers... How could I resist? :D https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/warner-bros-characters/images/5/58/Avengers-patrick-macnee-1.jpg On a more serious note: https://cdn.thedailymash.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/20190309173617/parker1.jpg Good old Parker.

I don't see any way to complete that mission. But at least a forced misjump using an energiebomb and flee, is an easy way to earn money. The respawn rate of thargoids is much too high. After killing all Thargoids with an energiebomb i have 12 Sec, before the next wave appears. Enough time to escape...

I have the mission to recover a black box between two systems in interstellar space. The question is, how can I get there? Until now I was never able to find any of the mission targets. Is the extension working at all? To get to interstellar space, set course for the other system and hit H, then, w...

One more on a similar theme. Variables leaking into email? https://i.postimg.cc/dtF9bbDj/oolite-054a.gif On accepting the mission, just like the last one of these, no "special computers" were put in my hold. I have zero tons. Of course, when I find the ship, they expect computers I don't h...

A5 is of course the likely standard for the BBC manual (as Wildeblood points out) but not for the other two on account of the Firebird box being A5 rather than the manual itself. The BBC manual won't fit inside the Spectrum or C64 boxes without suffering abuse. Back in the mid nineties, I helped a ...

I've posted further observations re: phantoms in the Telescope thread here.
