Re: Your ship's name on your HUD (Oolite 1.81)

I say! I do rather think that the misleading entry in the Expansions Manager might need changing in the light of this! It currently reads: HUDs Data - Ship Name Wildeblood 2014-10-21 Download Data - Ship Name 1.0 Do not download this. This is a component for use by HUD expansion packs, it is NOT a s...

The enhanced nebula/star .oxz make for wonderful photo-ops, but navigating makes me a bit nauseous.
Lovely pictures ... but which enhanced nebula/star oxz?

Re: Screenshots

You could try a couple of customised views, if you want - they can get some interesting angles: { view_description = "Cinematic One"; view_orientation = "0.9239 0.0 0.3827 0.0"; view_position = "247.4874 30.0 -247.4874"; weapon_facing = "FORWARD"; }, { view_d...

Re: Oolite gaming issues

BTW, the ASC is more generous than the manual alignment. It can fly through planets or stations. Yes, you can indeed witchspace while pointing at planets etc . I never bothered to check if the documentation mentioned it. By the way, starting chipping away at your list. That index page you put up is...

Re: A Description of the Improved Lighting and Materials System

I've added a link to this thread from the old Materials in Oolite wiki page: http://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Materials_in_Oolite

Are there any other links which should be made?

Re: Liners docking

Two methods for a normal space-ship which can physically fit into the liner's dock: 1) Use docking computers. I don't think that the liners OXP needs tweaking so that they work (as Deep Space Dredgers did)! See wiki page on liners for details. 2) Use ILS. Best to manoeuver first so that you are faci...

2 options. Without ASC (Advanced Space Compass): the directions flash up on your viewscreen With ASC (buyable at TL8 for 650₢): directions shown on your ASC ASC (Advanced Space Compass) is vanilla game Standard Optional Equipment.

Re: Oolite gaming issues

How would I align the ship manually? How to know the direction to the next star system? Alignment not required - if you have a target system selected, your hyperdrive will take you there. As Cody says, but to expand a little: 1) Vanilla game: no witchspace alignment. At all. There are two OXPs whic...

Re: oolite might need more ram and gc overhead memroy since it stiil crashing

Well, gentlemen ... I eventually tracked down the preferences file and could understand very little of it - gibberish. The bits in English seemed wrong. So I just hoicked it out of the folder and restarted the game. It ran, and generated a new preferences file. I left the Coriolis at Ororqu (en rout...

Re: Oolite Wiki

I would further argue that "Cargo Scoop as Standard" does not need a wiki page. And that what there is for "Reverse Y Control" suffices. That leaves MFD - CommsLog, Rescue Stations, Assassins Guild & Heavy Metal Freight Hauler needing redirects. Do you agree? What do you sug...
