Oolite Bulletins

Deadly on the Apple IIc.

I think I made Deadly in Oolite, but now I spend my time either authoring OXPs or playing "Broke Iron Adder" games. If you can make Elite from a Broke Iron Adder game, you've earned that title in more ways than one!

I realize we're in a freeze for 1.77, but after - How hard would it be to make the camera position readable? We can set camera position (player.ship.setCustomView), so why can't we read it? (Or can we, and I just didn't find it?)

Anyone that has his most recent OXPs, if you'd like to share them someplace, feel free. If you are worried about licensing, I can forward you a PM from him stating that "[you] can do anything [you] want with it." His made some cool OXPs, shame for the community to be deprived of them. If y...

a_c- Can you tell me what caused the CTD? I'd like to make sure there's not something I can do to prevent future issues. I know OXPs shouldn't never be able to cause a CTD, but want to make sure I didn't do something questionable. Jaz- Since this is resolved, would you mind updating the title accord...

A_C -
Would VPN access to a Win7 x64 VM be of assistance?

Okay, my final on this- Wildeblood - If you have a problem with me or my oxp, message me directly. Far more polite than bitching about it publically without giving me the opportunity to change the code. Since that was my first OXP ever, I'm not a professional or even amateur programmer, and I had ne...

Since it can obviously be implemented easily in an OXP, I'd say leave the core game unaltered. If you wish to have it in your game universe, load the OXP. Others may want to keep theirs closer to the original Elite.

Submersible is correct, it's not what I had in mind, but so long as the altered version is not distributed - I'm good with it. API is supplied specifically to allow other OXP's to control the behavior of DH-S. It's not hard to figure out from the code, but I really should get around to get around to...

For release builds, I think 2 is fine. But for the development builds, I can see the merit.

I have mentioned it before, and have tried not to for a long time... But... You should look at the code behind DH-Systems. A lot of what has been discussed in this thread was addressed in there. And before someone says that gas giants as mains were too prevenlent, I will again state that is only bec...

In Windowed Mode, yes. But full screen, no. Least not that I have been able to trigger.

I couldn't get it to tumble after flying back it's origin point, so I cheated and just told the AI to re-tumble every 5 seconds when idle. It worked, but the side effect is what you see now. Personally, I kinda liked it, as it gave the impression it was actually tracking ships, doing work, etc. If s...

Okay, I uploaded the updated version. Enjoy!

Wait for me to publish 1.1 in the next few days when I get over my busy schedule and take the time to zip and upload. You'll also get a nice AI for it that will have it pilot itself back to it's proper position if it gets bumped too far out of place.
