Oolite Bulletins

I don't know which 8-bit version you remember but the Speccy was just a unfilled circle IIRC. That's not to say it wasn't rotating, it was just kinda hard to tell.

I've used Stellarium on Windows and OS X, great program. Along with Celestia. Both excellent for Space enthusiasts.

sorry, I couldn't resist. It won't happen again! shoot, who am I kidding... it will happen again.

It certainly gives you something to aim for...

"Nah, I don't think 100cr is nearly enough! Muwahahaha!"

who's the "original dev" team? Is Winston still around?

crap, I'm derailing my own thread now.

I think you're thinking of monkeys or chickens... and there's no spanking or choking going on here. *shows hands*

Thanks for calling attention to my unfortunate mistyping.

I get nervous whenever I see the word "probe" in a subject, but this sounds like a great idea. I think adding random, potentially unusual encounters like this helps to add to the depth of the game. The Wiki would probably be the best place to search for existing OXPs like this. I don't thi...

I take heart when I see games like Planeshift which is...

That isn't necessarily a bad thing.

That's a very nice thing, it gives me hope for humanity!

Praise well deserved Smivs!

Let's not turn this into an Oolite wish-list thread people, that wasn't my original intention. :P Nor is it an Oolite 2 thread either. Ships named after snakes are out. Forget canon, think outside the Coriolis. :roll: To stick with Oolite for just a brief moment and to add further to the whole "...
