Oolite Bulletins

Guess it would make sense it have very big ships Q-bomb proof, but I think this is a game code issue rather than an OXP issue. Currently, the game code causes the Q-bomb to destroy anything except a station.

I think it should!

According to the F3 screen, the Q-bomb works by doing somthing very nasty to a ship's witch drive causing it to blow up. So a Q-bomb shoudn't destroy a space station (as they don't have witch drives), but should destroy any ship with a wich drive, however big.

On AOL (and yes they do suck)! Rang them on Sat when I kept getting the page cannot be displayed error message. Call Center claimed it was an OS problem with "socket settings" and refused to help. Downloaded and ran Registery Mechanic (250 problems found and fixed). Connection now good. St...

Proberbly noticed a lot of my posts are doubling. I'm not doing it on purpose, there is just somthing odd with my browser settings that I can't fix, which often causes my posts to be uploaded twice, but only on this site. Could someone tell me how I delete my posts, so I can clean up as I go along? ...

PS: Don't install the bandersnatch until you have a decent ship preferabley with shield boosters and military shields. It's a great OXP, but without a good ship you'll find yourself blown to bits before getting anywhere near the station. And don't go to Galaxy 2 until you have a good ship, there are...

Make sure you check out Oosat1 (link is up on Ossat2). Not all the mods have made it to Ossat2 yet (eg Imperial Courier - you've got to try one of these!) I think when I found the mods I spent the best part of a day, downloading unzipping and installing every one! Download and install everything for...

Only joking! I have tried docking by buying much smaller ships and I still blow up most of the time without making contact with the Coachwhip, so I think it probabley is a bug in the game code in 1.65. I've seen this problem discussed on the boards and there are problems docking with the Behomoth or...

There gonna need a bigger slot to attract the more well-healed customer!

Had a go at the ship with my lasers and it fought back big time. Did destroy it but only after it had taken up my shields and half my equipment!

Was trying the right end!

Have now managed to dock. I think it is just that i'm in an Imperial Courier (updated version), which is so huge it only just fits in the port!

Looks great fun.

I've just downloaded the OXP, but I blow up when I try to dock.

I have the 1.65 (beta) for PC and the collison detection in this version is a know bug, as you somtimes blow up when near a station.

Don't know if this is a problem with the OXP or game code.

Could we have a spotlight as equipment (should be faily cheap)?

Ships are hard to make out, but a powerfull searchlight would make them easy to see, whilst mainting the old-elite feel.

Like the crew manning the turrents idea. I remember buying turret ships in FFE, but the turrets were useless as the player had to control them. Computer controlled crew maning the player's turrets would be great. But the NCPs would have to get turrett gunners too.
