Oolite Bulletins

I bought this one (in other shop) and it is really good (and really expensive too) http://www.thrustmaster.com/en_UK/products/hotas-warthog-flight-stick and special keypad for left hand. But I still would like more buttons and controls, so maybe I will create my own programmable keypad based on AVR ...

Ah, I bought it long time ago, but totally forget about it

Hello, I downloaded the 0.5.8 version and once again I tried to recue the "stranded ship" in Beesor, half way between Witchpoint and Sun (so it should be like 380km from each ) and had a few problem: I took the direct way, to arrive just at time - it told me something like 10 minutes to de...

@ffutures: OK, so now it your time :) BTW: For REALLY RIDICULOUS close combat you can see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outlaw_Star where the ships literally wrestle (and do more strange things too) http://download.gilhad.cz/OutlawStar/OutlawStar1.png http://download.gilhad.cz/OutlawStar/OutlawStar2...

Under 100 meters? And not involving boarding operations? Can't think of any at all. I would have said anything under 1000 km was ridiculously close, but there I can think of a couple that qualify.

Thank you :) So what about 5 different universes, where part of normal strategy of space battle is close combat of space ships? (close as in contact or something under say 100 meters maintained for some time) Not necessary the only strategy ofcourse . Just pushing commando to fight inside does not c...

The Caves of Steel - Isaac Asimov for book?

Hello, maybe totally useless rant, or inspiration: In Elite II:Frontier (and IMHO also in Elite III: First Encounters), there was totally different mechanism in effect - normal space physic: there was Hydrogen Fuel (=civilian) as tradeable item like say food it could be traded or Fuel Scooped from s...

Not sure, if Solariss would count (while highly inteligent it is so different, that "conversation" is the problem - but the "phantoms", it creates, at least can understand humans (even if that feelss somehow like "cheating" from Solaris side) ) https://en.wikipedia.org/...

The Practice Effec t by David Brin , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Practice_Effect Thingss do not degrade if used, instead get better at the current usage. It is normally accepted as "everyday feature/magic". Main hero (normal educated and skilled human) is considered big mage, as he ...
