Re: [WIP] Diplomacy OXP

Hi, this is a great addon! I only have the problem that my one-day visa is always expired after jumping to the related system. So what's the point of buying a one-day visa for Zaonce, let's say in Lave, when it's expired as soon as you arrive there. I always get fined for unallowed docking. Or is t...

Re: Tionisla Orbital Graveyard 2.0

Why do you have to give it a beacon? Why can't Phineas or Benedict be right for once?

And by the way - the reason that TOGY does not exist in ED/Frontier 3 is obvious: Drew Wagar blew up his priceless piece of lore with a quirium bomb!

Re: Tionisla Orbital Graveyard 2.0

The difficulties in finding the graveyard are due to the fact that the space station does not show up on the ASC (advanced space compass). The question, of course, is why? Phineas, cousin Digby's solicitor, says that it might be something to do with a Galactic Law which prohibits the advertisement o...

Re: [WIP] Risky Business OXP

Thank you for working on the economics!

What are you doing differently from cim? Is it just a case of updating for the new version of Oolite? Or is there something more sophisticated going on?

https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=6153

Re: [RELEASE] Repair Bots v2.11

Dybal, I'm just curious (and utterly ignorant of these matters) - but roughly how difficult would it be to craft a more realistic repair system where i) you can choose what the bots repair first ii) the time taken differs according to what is damaged and the amount of damage done iii) one could hav...

Re: Recovering "Lost" OXPs

The latest update rather destroys the magic.

Re: Recovering "Lost" OXPs

All Medical Anacondas are fitted with planetary landing capability and a single forward pulse laser for asteroid protection.


The wiki entry makes these wonderful ships sound very, very saintly.

But whom are they protecting the asteroids from? Rabid jelly babies?
