Re: Education
Setting choices is needed for that. But it's fairly easy to do. If you want to be particularly cunning you can cross-ref to descriptions for some random descriptions of the drinks. in mission text set up some choices like this:- "bar_names_menu1" = { "1_DRINK1" = "Order [bar...

Re: Education
Having a "Visit the Station Bar" on the F4 Screen might be a way to go for that. This script would let you give a randomly picked item each time. Although you might want to also add a timer so the messages change over time. You could also add tests for Government type, economy or station t...

Re: Education
I think news broadcasts with GNN would be quite an immersive way of introducing these sort of things. Information about missions at special stations could be done with a news item reporting on the fact. Guidance on how to do cargo contracts could be given indirectly by the news reporting on the mis-...

Re: Galactic Almanac OXP - Beta 1 (Updated to B1.5 - 30.12.21)
Had a look at the code and saw you have persistent stations and some that can appear by random chance (avoiding spoilers). So if your okay with this I'll add hand placed names for the persistent ones eg. "Fort Jameson", or whatever the authors would like to suggest as fixed names. For non-...

Re: Galactic Almanac OXP - Beta 1 (Updated to B1.5 - 30.12.21)
The errors it is throwing are harmless (but are a fault with my code). Basically, both of these stations have beacons but can replace the main station and be called as an extra station orbiting an extra planet by Extra Stations for Extra Planets. As native Oolite automatically adds a beacon to the M...

Re: Galactic Almanac OXP - Beta 1
Pretty much there now with making Beta 1.5 fully support Strangers World. Screen Shots below show the OXZ running on Strangers World. 1) Detects if the Stranger's World Planetary Systems OXZ is installed and gives an Almanac Unavailable Screen until Stranger's World has set up the system. Workaround...

Re: Galactic Almanac OXP - Beta 1
Update, Beta 1.5 will be compatible with Strangers World as well as Telescope, System Redux and Orbits. I have found the problem. It is that Strangers World is using the old method of adding planets and moons in batches when the player launches and exits hyperspace rather than using the modern metho...

Re: Galactic Almanac OXP - Beta 1
I'd had a poke through Telescope's code and saw that when you appear to be targeting an object more than 25 Kms away you are actually targeting a ship called "Telescope Marker" - Cunning!. I think this is why some objects were appearing as undefined as the MFD was reporting information on ...

Re: Galactic Almanac OXP - Beta 1
Beta 1.5 (finishing off at the moment) will make telescope and the MFD computable as the MFD will now read the target markers added by telescope. As far as the Almanac is concerned, the MFD will only show objects transmitting a beacon readable with an ASC. So if you haven't added a beacon to your st...

Re: [Beta] Release of Telescope 2.0
Really like the Telescope Options add on as I prefer not to have the mass lock rings visible. I've had the same odd issue as Arquebus however, including it breaking my save file. I installed V2 of Telescope, Gravity Extender and Station Options. All worked perfectly and I used the Options to turn of...

Re: Galactic Almanac OXP - Beta 1
EDITED as found the cause of the bug wasn't what I first thought! EDIT 2 : This Bug is fixed by Cag's Version 2.0 of Telescope. I’ve been mainly focusing on optimising the MFD code and adding the ships to the database (just 10 more to check now). However, I have found the problem with Planet and Sta...

Re: Galactic Almanac OXP - Beta 1
No problems. My writing and Oolite playing time are pretty much the same thing as I've been writing the OXZ as I play. The new Jameson I started is now deadly and I've ticked off all the Explorers Club Goals playtesting with System Redux installed. Its one of those things that should really work wit...

Re: Galactic Almanac OXP - Beta 1
Rock Hermits not appearing on the ASC or the Galactic Almanac Screens is normal Oolite behaviour. Apart from some unique ones such as the Link Base, Rock Hermits do not transmit ID-Beacons so will not be listed by the Galactic Almanac or on the ASC. If however you have Rock Hermit locator installed ...
