Oolite Bulletins

I was just reading an article about The Well, an online community founded in 1985, still alive, and nowadays on the web (well.com). Is anyone here using it or has any experience? It does sound like the friendliest place this side of Riedquat, just less about, well, Riedquat and the like...

Good stuff! Thanks a bunch, Cholmondely!

True, flying the destroyer is not only about piloting, it is also about commanding the escorts and fighters.

I am sure that the shuttle is manned with stoned hippies.

You mean edible poets?

I started playing Oolite a bit again

Welcome back

There is supposed to be a shuttle for docking with stations. Not sure exactly what triggers it, try targeting the station maybe? The screenshots on the Imperial Destroyer’s wiki page show the lambda shuttle. Its wiki page says it is broken on current versions of Oolite (paraphrased from the known i...

I don't have a phone, nor an app (and I only have a free box account), so that magic won't work for me. <sobs>

So is my box account, so I wonder what it is that makes it react differently yo the original link

Yep, that works! Thanks, your wizardliness!

Good. Here is the “magic” recipe: open your link on my phone, which directly opens it in the app. Copy the file to my box account. Create a link for sharing and post it. Done

Neither of us will ever get anywhere downloading the oxp. - remember the fun we both had with with Asteroids 3D last month? We need Maik to prise it open for us.

Does this link work for you? I copied it to my box account...

Very long and detailed insights, thank you! That just made the most interesting read at least of today

Hello all. :) I want to start creating my first OXP. I run OSX on my Mac and a competent blender user. I am however completely lost when it comes to encoding. :P I am also new to these forums. I wish to create a new ship as my first OXP. I was wondering if you would all be so kind as to point me in...

For cloud editing purposes

Help? What is this?

I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down, and still somehow
It's cloud illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all

How very poetic of you!

Is the Village Pump what I think it is, maik - some kinda wiki chatroom? It is more a discussion board than a chat room in that the conversation is not transient, meant for discussion of article content, style etc. I haven’t actually used it myself though, so I only just read up on it, and I’m not ...

I believe you will need to compile it from source if it is not available in the repository. The oolite.org linux version is built for Intel/AMD processors and, if I am not mistaken, the Raspberry Pi features an ARM one. This would explain the inability to run the oolite.org version and the error me...

[...]as well as my specific circumstance?[...] Alternatively, if you could define the OXZ/OXP directory, then you could have it in your transfer as well I'm not sure - is that possible? I got the impression that it wasn't, but I admit to RTFMing as far as necessary to get an acceptable system, then...
