Oolite Bulletins

Aside from affecting the resale value of your ship does the maintenance overhaul have any other effect? Is performance affected or combat damage more likely?
If not then surely it's only worth having it done when you want to sell your ship.

It’s quite simple: edit the first post in the thread and add an option. Well, it’s simple for me… I’m assuming normal users can do it, too. Anyway, I’ve done it. :-) Cheers Ahuman, I could edit the post but there was no way to add another option. Interesting to see the majority favouring keyboard o...

Keyboard and Mouse? Hmm - never tried that combination.
I would edit the poll to include this choice but I'm afraid I don't know how.

Currently I play Oolite solely using the keyboard, but I'm debating whether or not to buy a joystick.
I'd be interested to know how many of you use each.

My problem sussenly seemd to right itself - don't know why.
Haven't tackled any of the missions or installed any yet so I don't think it's mission related.

Fuelpods

MPak
Pelamis
Cobra35
Griffin2
Python Cruiser
Old Ships
Transports
Cargo Wrex
Pirate Coves
Hoopy casino

Over the last couple of days I must have visited about ten systems, at each one when I've checked the ships for sale screen it just states no ships are available for purchase. I can't believe none of them have ships for sale, they've ranged from tech level 3 to 14, all the way from poor agricultural...

First post - can I just say how fabulous Oolite is. Minor niggle - I've been playing for some weeks with no problem. Today I installed the Cargo wrex oxp.
