What are the consequences of the inexistence of your avatar for your own existence?

Happy Christmas, everyone!

Is it still Xmas at your end of existence?

Just to wish everybody all the very best over the festive period!

May 2026 be a better year for all of us!

You're correct, hiran, Oolite-style FTL* is ruled out, because of the mass-locking (in-game) phenomenon. The only plausible escape from a black hole, here in our universe and in the ooniverse, is via time-travel. In an environment where spatial dimensions have become time-like, the only way to back...

[Cholly, in my gut I feel this sentence, "Just as a ship sailing away from a coast on earth experiences nothing special when it crosses the horizon as viewed from a fareweller on the shore," requires two commas, but where?] Does it? Really? The punctuation is to help people parse it - and...

I'm still here, lurking without a cloaking device engaged! It would be nice to have real lurking in Oolite. If one could meaningfully "power-down" one's ship and then lurk, hiding from sight behind an asteroid and not appearing as a powered ship to the NPC scanners. Might it be OXP-able o...

Bump!

Time to try this one out!

And don't forget your Mince Pies!


Both downloadable through the in-game Expansions Manager

Maestro! Long time, no see!

How are the rigours and vicissitudes of continued existence treating you?

Summary of my stalled "Further Work" on this OXP.. I get a sense of where you left it. Colours are sometimes used in the version I have, but I haven't felt it has added anything crucial. The space given by a paragraph break would be welcome in some places though. As far as giving Hints a ...

Summary of my stalled "Further Work" on this OXP. 1) I added in some colours to emphasise the different lines in trialogues. I forget now why I did not incorporate it - but something went wrong. this.name = "Hints_Station_Bar.js"; this.author = "Cholmondely"; this.copyr...

That is Ditizaian evil juice! Well,...

Hints OXZ is just a mission screen with randomly selected contents, right? It doesn't interact with anything else? So, a Trashier Hints OXP could sit alongside it, without interference? It does not interact with anything else, as you say. I was hoping that it would be merged into Life in the Fronti...
