Re: OXPs - Strategic thinking!

One of my (lot) WIP's include a small fleet attacking the main planet, admiral orders, drop shuttles and bombardment included before the entire fleet is going down on the planet. The entire scenario is tested and is working. If you like, I can upload the OXP for you so that you can have a look. War...

I presume that this led to Z_U's explosions...
Explosions are nowadays very much changeable. Color, style, time ... you name it.

Re: Scripters cove

I just started playing with equipment and condition scripts. Out of convenience (or maybe it's laziness), I wrote the elements of these two right in my main script. It's working just fine as far as I can tell. Is it OK to do this (keep everything in one file) or is it considered a bad practice? Per...

Re: [Release] ADCK's Bulk Haulers

And not Jormundgad? Both the original and Murgh's retexture are dockable... My bad, you are correct. The Jormundgad is dockable as well. :oops: If this means what I think it does, super! If we can allow super-sized ships to dock at Nuit, then we can start emulating such scenarios as those of CJ Che...

Re: [Release] ADCK's Bulk Haulers

ADCK's Bulk Haulers are now available on the expansion manager. Warning !!! This is the original version from 2010 so don't expect the markets to work. If they're all dockables, should they not be categorised as such? And you could grab Murgh's Trade-goods.plist for his Jormungand (Iron Ass Vol 5) ...

Re: Mining

I don't know... All I can suggest is reading how Spara's Ore Processor OXZ works. I am currently using a simple workaround, every boulder got a small script which, on this.shipDied spawns some additional splinters. However, the question remains, why when I create my own group the initial cargo seem...

Re: RELEASE: Adder MkIII

Wait, do you mean this one: " buydesc" = "Isis Interstellar's enhanced Adder Mark III, better maneuverability and 1 additional pylon and mount in exchange for only 2 t of cargo space."; Yes, that's what confused me (it's also in the shiplibrary.plist). You are correct, I will tr...

Mining

I am aware I should know it, but I admit I was never much into mining. However, I am currently experimenting with asteroids, boulders and splinters after recognizing that my splinter roles seem to never show up. shipdata.plist offers debris_role which allows me to assign my own set of splinters, Now...

Re: Saving in-station

Also true - but that's the chance one takes if saving at a RH. Correct, same like with some OXP stations, you might find yourself at the main-station or simply get ejected. The core-game needs fixed coordinates, a RH would provide it, once again, without OXP's, however, the only object in the core-...
