How much work would it really be to expand the 8 galaxies? Is it easily do-able - or would it constitute a major vandalisation of everything, breaking OXPs right, left and centre, and causing all sorts of unforeseen upsets? ...blah, blah, blah... If we could (i) expand the potential number of syste...

So it looks for an AddOns dir next to the .app dir?

Yes.

Visits (System Visits Counter, an alternative to Explorers' Club.) There are now a number of OXPs which depend on Explorer's Club. Zero Map - Explore the galaxy & Here be Dragons (they each blank to unexplored map, relying on Explorer's Club to tell them what to reveal). I've just been playing ...

2) Throbtastic Crosshairs™ (I'm not sure that this is describable) After I loaded it, I immediately had to launch due to a Marxist Assault on Onarmala - and my Frame Rate slowed to a crawl.

I have received a complaint from A. Person that the last version of World Builder I shared with youse doesn't explicitly list the concealment property in its menus. So, Mr Person: 1. select the system you want to hide on the chart screen: 2. open World Builder, and at the first text-entry box type i...

Open the Pod Bay doors please Adode. What an odd co-incidence. Just this afternoon, I decided to try out some different online LLMs, as I'd only ever tried ChatGPT and Qwen before. I thought, "What's a good prompt I could use to compare their output?" And, I decided on, "What does th...

If we could (i) expand the potential number of systems, (ii) not use them all (so the numbers are not a predictable immersion-breaking 512 for every single galaxy), (iii) expand the size of G1 beyond what is shown on the F6 chart, i. Unnecessary. The 2048 includes more than enough useless spares no...

How does one pronounce HUD? Like 'hood' perhaps?

Right, I'm out. Enjoy your descent into madness, weirdoes.

[In a heroic act of self-sacrifice, attempts to draw my ire away from Redspear.]

Right you. How many vowel sounds are in the phrase, "Hula girls from Hull"?

I'm from the 14th century mate.

So Yorkshire then? Where does could rhyme with HUD?
