Oolite Bulletins

Just to drift this slightly towards the topic. The way I made my money n game, was taking on cargo contracts. This was in a large hold griffin 2. Once you've done a few runs in quick succession you start getting precious metal/gem contracts that pay in the 100k+ region. Several of those and you're l...

It took me a while to remember that you'd asked me. Anyway great work. Since I got to elite a few months back it's the missions that bring me back to playing this great game.

Thouroughly enjoying this mission so far. In fact it's the inspiration for my current burst of Ooliteering.

On the other hand it was a little surreal being greeted by my avatar the first time!

The only savegame issue I'm aware of is that you have to keep an OXP of the ship you are flying. Otherwise you can change what you like.

When my elite pilot dies it tends to be from odd things, usually collisions at high speed with other ships. I did get Q-mined the other day, and with the new renegades and pirate havens on it gets pretty dangerous. My most embarrassing one has to be forgetting to pull up slightly when leaving a stat...

Yeah, car-horns on your ship.

Of course, in space no one can hear you cursing the git that just drifted into your docking route.





Oh you mean porn-spam

Perhaps have a 'Super Galactic Hyperdrive' for 10k-20k Cr that allows you to choose in addition to the normal galactic hyperdrive.

YARR!

Perhaps it would just be better for the writers of said OXP's to add a line in their description of what level the OXP is god for.

Regarding more missions, you get out what you put in. It is possible to make your own.

Edit: apparently not at this exact address. Look at some of the later page numbers. I don't own the copyright on the image but I'm not sure the site I got it from does either.

Hope you did it the proper way, without embellishing your player files, if so - Respect! But of course. I did have to tweak it a couple of times due to OXP mission problems (spyhunter and military) and of course I've been killed and loaded the savegame. I don't think it's possible to get to Elite w...

You just get a 'Right On Commander!' and 'Deadly' '---ELITE---'
I'm not sure I really want a big fanfare, maybe a congrats message from the appropriate authorities when you next dock would be nice. Otherwise I'm happy to have made it this far.

Well I've finally got there. It took ages and I even managed to contrive doing it at Lave, where it all started. Phew!

Thanks to Giles for a great game and thanks to all the OXP writers who have added so much extra to it.

No, Deposed, currently trying, and failing, to kill the pirates

Ionics was a good mission, just took a while to fight through 150 whitetails. (It was with the narcolepticAI)

Just a minor bug. Everytime I enter a new system there is a queue of ships that enter from witchspace fly straight ahead then witchspace out again. It doesn't affect gameplay, but it's a little odd and feels like a small blemish on the game.
