Re: The Feudal States

That's not the fault of "No Market Notification" - that's a poor design choice in Feudal States. I have a sneaky feeling that is was not a bad design choice at the time. OXPs for the pre-1.80 versions of Oolite seem regularly to have used the F-screens for other matters. This changed when...

Re: Ship for Bounty hunter

You buy on the F3F3 screen when docked - and the selection of ships for sale varies (i) with the system and (ii) with each visit to that system.

As regards which ship is best for bounty hunting you will need advice from someone who knows more than I do!

Replicating the toughness of Oolite v.1.80

Cim’s first stable version was reputedly very tough - changes to pirate AI, etc. And this toughness was then toned down for v1.82 and subsequent versions. Is there any simple way to replicate the toughness of the original 1.80 within 1.90? Is it a simple matter of tweaking a couple of settings in th...

Re: Survey: What is your Oolite playing style?

So I do the same. Lave -> Zaonce -> Isinor <->Tionisla (with detours to Qutiri once I have partially equipped my Cobra - the profit margin is usually bigger there than in Isinor). Once I have beam lasers, energy grid (OXP) and EEU I then bounce between Ensoreus and Ararus. But I have lots of OXPs. ...

How goes it?



Have the keyboard issues sunk any chance of getting a completely audible version of v.1.90?

And are the chances of getting a working version of v.1.91/2 utterly scuppered by Apple's abandonment of "OpenGL 3+"?

Re: Kill count not increasing

I’ll turn it off by default for the next release. Just musing about all this. The bounties are given by GalCop police (presumably) for clobbering the pernicious pirates (and possibly also the Thargoids. Really? For Thargoids ? Not by the Galactic Navy if loaded, or the Galactic Co-operative itself?...

Re: Personalities.oxp

Had a most exhilarating encounter (in Oolite v.1.77.1) thanks to this oxp. Mooching about in the vicinity of Onrira (SW G1), and launched from the orbital station to witness a bun-fight going on! Captain Hesperus was being chased by a posse of Vipers, running hither and yon, crying out for help. The...

Re: Survey: What is your Oolite playing style?

I just run around Industrial and Agricultural planets, mostly between Tionsla and Isinor, for trading [and safety, a pulse laser and ECM is the only thing I have], don't know if it actually makes me money. maybe run around Bemaera to kill idiot pirates with no ECM system. In summary, I have no idea...

Re: OoliteStarter

The OXP PROHIP Xpat b1 is not in the Available list. How exactly did you install it? This link from its wiki page: https://app.box.com/s/jlhfz4sj3fipjc3i4wyy9yud1al5blsm ...and what did he do with that link? Download an artifact? Presumably. Then it sits in the browser's download folder. What next?...

I think that there is an argument for downloading and playing v.1.77.1 just to enjoy this OXP. What utter fun! Even more amazing, I can say this despite the issues it seems to have with my AppleMac (graffiti all over the F-screens and my JB_HUD, inability to type " ' ", occlusion of vital ...

Re: How Long does a Dock-to-Dock Hyperjump Cycle Take?

You can always store your new OXP on the wiki for downloaders. It can then be overwritten if you update it.

Oxps need to be stored as .zip files. Oxzs are just stored as oxzs
