Station Defense Minigame

I'm trying to learn about coding oxp's and I had an idea for one. Essentially, there is a research station in the middle of nowhere (perhaps behind the sun) that the player can dock with. Then, a mission screen comes up, saying that you must launch and defend the station from pirates/political enemi...

Re: The Honourable Guild of Test Pilots

Yeah... The thargs that spawn (at least for me) were shooting the asteroids. I don't think that was supposed to happen.

Re: Longtime lurker, first post

I have always wondered though, what's on the other side of Riedquat? Friendlier boards still?
Ah, you have never heard the tale of Raxxla's boards...

Re: The Honourable Guild of Test Pilots

It is convenient, but does unbalance the game a bit, especially for a new commander. For example, he might find a good trading deal in an anarchy. However, he is not equipped enough to fight his way through. So, he buys a game of asteroids, jumps, and bam, he is at the main station. Edit: Just remem...

Re: The Honourable Guild of Test Pilots

With the asteroids game, if the player witches out, it will automatically dock them at the main station of the system they just entered. It certainly would make it easy to avoid pirates and such. I am pretty sure that this is a bug. It just doesn't seem right.

Re: Oolite 1.76.1

What are the differences between this version and the last? I don't see anything major.

Re: Why does Elite still matter?

I don't know McLane, I use yaw a lot. For example, I manually dock with constores and rock hermits. I fly beside them looking out my side window, and when my ship is aligned, I yaw around and fly in. Removing yaw would change that technique. It wouldn't ruin it by any means, but it would be more tim...

Re: A Sub forum @ Spacesimcentral.com?

Reddit is mostly a social news site (users can share links), but one can also create a subreddit. This is like creating a new forum on the reddit site.

Re: A Sub forum @ Spacesimcentral.com?

Ok. I was kinda wondering if that would be the case. On the internet it seems that you will find a large group that does reddit/4chan/whatever, and then another group that doesn't.

Re: A Sub forum @ Spacesimcentral.com?

I know I posted this before, but it didn't get much attention. I created an oolite subreddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/oolite. Maybe you guys could check it out?

Oolite subreddit

I was wondering, what would you guys think about having an Oolite subreddit? It might be good for people who are already on reddit and don't want to make another account (more passwords to remember).
