Oolite Bulletins

Looking forward to it. Been following your 7 Days to Die play-though and it got me into it. The latest version of Galactic Almanac (should) be compatible now with all OXZs (including planetary compass). Would you mind taking V0.9 for a playtest?

Update to Version 0.9 (Download from the Wiki Page or from the Expansion Pack Manager in-game) Updates in Version 0.9: Updates the OXZ to be compatible with the Planetary Compass and In-System Cargo Delivery OXZs. Improves the names used by the automatic naming feature. Increases the pool of names u...

I'll replace it with a warning for V0.9, but you've just got to add the \\ The manifest ends like this: "conflict_oxps" = ( { "identifier" = "oolite.oxp.Thargoid.PlanetaryCompass"; "description" = "Conflicts with Planetary Compass as both OXZ name moons. ...

The almanac duplicates the code in Planetary Compass as this OXP only names moons (but not planets or stations), so you don't really need both as the Almanac will deploy all of Thardoids names to moons but in addition names the other objects in the system. You can play with both installed if you nee...

Converted to OXZ format and now available on the Expansion Pack Manager.

Full Version 0.8 - 07.07.22. This version converts the expansion to OXZ format, fixes a compatibility problem with the Interface Reordering OXP (solution by PHKB) and corrects some typos and spelling errors.

@Cholmondely Just travel about a bit. Shortly after you watch a news broadcast mentioning a bungled investigation by the Tionisla Chronicle, you will receive an email from the Scribe asking you to meet him at the Zadies main station. (Requires the Galactic Almanac V0.7 and GNN News to be installed)....

Lave, Zadies and quite a few of the above feature if you feel like helping out Petty Scribe Dors Venabili.

Made the changes to the Almanac script (thanks for the line numbers). Given it a quick test and it seems to work fine with the Re-Ordering OXP. I'll put a v0.8 on the manager over the weekend hopefully, but I'm still having a problem uploading a file to the Wiki, as if I try to upload a ,oxz file it...

The conflict is unavoidable really as Planetary Compass will name all the planets with the name of the system ie: Lave II, Lave III etc and you can't really have two packs naming the planets and moons. Although In System cargo delivery has planetary compass as a requirement, this is only because it'...

I have a log-in but:-

1) I cant seem to upload a .oxz file to the wiki as it will only accept .png, .jpeg etc.
2) How do I put a URL in the Manifest folder, when I don't know the url until I've uploaded the whole file including the manifest?

Update to V07. This is the final completed version of the OXP and adds 7 more News Broadcasts and an optional non-combat mission. I haven't worked out how to use the expansion pack manager, so if anyone is able to add it to the Manager then please feel free to do so. I will update to a final V1.0 in...

Unfortunately, the Galactic Banks refuse to deal with fiddling small change.

The game's code always returns distances in game meters. So you just need to know how many meters are in the unit you want to convert the number returned in meters into. There are 2.08641 meters in 1 Cavezzi, 1609.34 meters in a mile and (obviously) 1,000 meters in a KM. As the Almanac uses user-sel...

Update to Beta 1.6 Beta Version 1.6 - 07.05.22. This version adds automatic naming to any Station OXZs released after the Galactic Almanac. Additionally: Fixes a bug where with Planetary Systems installed moons and planets added by any other OXZ had their orbital positions mis-numbered. Adds names t...

Added naming arrays for the extra stations. Still doing the code to auto-name stations released after the Galactic Almanac though. Test below shows 4 of the stations appearing in the same system... http://i.imgur.com/ZODInTq.png http://i.imgur.com/LC9beNe.png http://i.imgur.com/STsXqm4.png http://i....
