Oolite Bulletins

I found Oolite on Wikipedia too. I was actually looking for a remake of either Elite or Frontier to waste a little spare time on :lol: I hardly got any sleep the following two weeks - and then I discovered the OXPs and this BB :lol: I too found Oolite mentioned on the Elite section of Wikipedia. I ...

What's an EMP missile? does it disable the ship it hits? If so then a 'bomb' that does the same thing over a large area would still fit in. Since it would disable the user's laser it would only be a defensive weapon so would be ok being cheap. Ramirez has done an excellent OXP with some lovely new ...

I noticed that if you get your overhaul done at a planet which doesn't stock al the gear you have you have to get it done again at a planet that does.

I recently installed the renegades OXP and found that some of the renegades have Q-bombs. Now this isn't too bad as you can run away if you're fast enough (I've not managed it yet though!). But what about energy bombs? It seems that there's something stopping NPCs ever having them which seems unfai...

A few times I've been asked if I want to buy a Trumble. The sales cat seems to be a shady character. Are Trumbles a mission worth taking on or is the cat trying to con me out of my hard stolen creds?

I went to Diso just see to see the extra planets & beta station. It was very good indeed so well done that programmer!

I 'created' a 'Pulsar' for the tianve.oxp by using addPlanet, very fast rotation and a coloured texture...

Cheers,

Just finished the black baron mission so I'm off to Tianve now to take a look at your Pulsar.

Try playing someting else... Atmost that could be made into an OXP, but don't count on it to be biult-in

I can't think of any other game that's as much fun as Oolite

I suppose it could be an OXP but it would be a big job.

Just day-dreaming

The creator of the Universe must be poor as he/she seems only to be able to afford 1 star for each system! :lol: There's plenty of binary star systems around. Do you think it would be a good idea, or even feasible, to have binary & perhaps even trinary systems in Oolite? You could perhaps then h...

Cheers Commander.

It didn't crash yesterday but if it does again I'll mail the error bits.

The other day a clean Cobra MKIII turned hostile on me after I had saved his behind from 3 pirates. He turned nasty when I was scooping the pirates cargo. He didn't attack he just sat there all red & saying nasty things! Suppose I shouldn't complain as harsh words hurt my old Cobra MkII-X less t...

@GothStag: So if you perform a search for "remora torpedo" here on the board, you will find pretty much everything that has been said about it in the last few years. I had a look & it sounds very interesting. It would be a good thing to team with Ramirezs EMP missile. Knock out their ...

Gothstag - if you're referring to the Missiles and Bombs OXP, do let me know how you get on with it as I haven't had much feedback so far. I am indeed Sir! It's very good! Well done! :D I like the anti-pirate defence mine. Just let it go & let those 4 missiles chase 'em and a lot less than an e...

Not a bad idea but wouldn't it detract from the mystery that some missions have. I'm on a mission and there was mention that if I got s certain something to a certain somewhere there'd be a big battle! :D That'd be time to try out some more of the nice new missiles I've got from the new missiles OXP...

Cheers TGHC I'll give that a try.
