My in game view is that any assassin with their salt would be hiding or not have ship names.

Probably true - but if all other ships have names, they identify themselves by not having them.

As assassins yes. But not who they are. They remain faceless killers.

What's quite interesting is that although I have "Random Ship Names" enabled, none of these guys get one. Definitely sounds like assassins - there is a tweak available for RSN that will give them names. My in game view is that any assassin with their salt would be hiding or not have ship ...

The best thing about Oolite is the ability to customise the Ooverse to personal tastes through the OXP/OXZ system. Introducing these into core would destroy this. I would not like to see any of these introduced (even the ones I use) as I don't believe they are in any way core, and they are easy to i...

Definitely not a boffin

but when I changed it to the cat swaps ship.

You need to do it for each 'cat'

Neither does a Mamba

However just because you could fit a passenger cabin don't mean you must

And anyway it would be a challenge to do passenger runs without it. Sitting and waiting for a ship going the right way.

After getting over the first shock of early encounters I really like to new AI and difficulty when starting from new (my 1.8 Ooverse is different from 1.77 so I'm not using old ships). A few things I found are: Running away is always the best option. :lol: Judge the odds, even with pulse lasers 3-4 ...

Thanks Spara,
that's the other good thing with this thread, great advice on code that's beyond my understanding

I'll give it a try, although I kind of like that the bar can disappear, I see it as the criminals who attack the bar as having won and destroyed it.

I think this is a great thread, and have adopted some of the changes already mentioned, so I'll add some of my own small changes to Random Hits -which I think is a great OXP but found that the Seedy Space Bar a little unbalancing to the game. Similar to the post that started this thread, I changed l...

I to have been running as a miner for a couple of days, makes for a totally different game. Having asteroid storm and ore processor adds to the fun. New Cargoes is also fun. It sometimes changes your minerals to special minerals that you can sell at the special cargoes market. Does not work on mine...

Also in my set up I have replaced the easy start - which I don't want - with an escort start giving a sidewinder which will be my next start.

@Spara. Thanks.
Looks like that's fixed it-
No errors in the logs.
Will head out to enjoy it.

Downloaded 1.3 but it doesn't seem to be working for me :( Getting this log info, (removed all other OXPs): Opening log for Oolite version 1.77.1 (x86-64) under Mac OS X Version 10.9.1 (Build 13B42) at 2014-02-28 15:40:17 +0000.

Welcome Venator Dha! (...I opted not to use your initials :mrgreen: ) I'm an old BBC B Elite pilot, who's just found Oolite a month ago. Ahh, so you're one of the originals :) I started on the Spectrum and was seriously envious of all the extra ships you had on the BBC... but now with Oolite, I get...

I'm an old BBC B Elite pilot, who's just found Oolite a month ago. I have spent the last month relearning to fly. And building my own Ooniverse from the OXP's - almost as much fun as playing the game :D A big thanks to all the Devs and OSP'ers. Anyway, must rush, I've a passenger to get to Edreor, A...
