Oolite Bulletins

changed escape capsule role to:
Still using the old one.

Must I use a like_ship reference ?

Hmmm, nothing else in the log... here is the complete escape capsule shipdata.plist: { "HPC_escape_capsule" = { aft_eject_position = "0.0 0.0 -2.0"; ai_type = "oolite-shuttleAI.js"; cargo_type = "CARGO_SLAVES"; energy_recharge_rate = 2; exhaust = ( "0.0 0...

Hm I am having a little issue with this: In the shipdata.plist of an NPC cobbie I have this line: escape_pod_model = "escape-capsule-deluxe"; in the shipdata.plist of the escape capsule I have this line: roles = "escape-capsule-deluxe"; reading up on the wiki: escape_pod_model Wi...

Ok thanks Cim,

Would you reckon Cim; that this would cause framerate or other issues, when done this way ?

Or would you be safe to assume that although it is not in any way elegant it should not pose any significant issues?

This is probably not rocket science, but for those of you who compile their own game and would like to have different laser colors depending on Laser installed, I would like to share this with you: Download the source and open PlayerEntity.m in notepad ++ at line 5321 you will find this code block s...

Hey Redspear, This is some cool stuff. HeadUpDisplay.m - line 1088 - for that full "scoop, scoop, scoop..." experience Quote: double factor = ([stellar isSun]) ? 1.4 : 1.0; There may be better values but these seem to work with suns and planets/moons of various sizes. And (for the meantime...

Thanks Solo, It was not easy, but getting there slowly. Release of the pirate version coming very soon. A little busy with RL at the moment, but finding the time here and there to work on it. I think the new features look and play nice, so will continue along the same lines. catch you all later Dert...

Both craft fully functional and out of Beta.

Sidewinder Pirate version up next and then it's time for Solaris Station.

Enjoy.

Further craft will now simply be added to the pack. Stay tuned for more and enjoy the release.

thank you Cim, will try that out.

Edit: works well thx.

Since it is impossible to damage passenger berths, how can one query if one is installed or not ?

since this is not possible
what is the alternative ?

A little update video on the Cobra Mk 3 Player ship which shows the visual feedback depending on the purchase of new equipment while undocked, which basically adds new subentites to the ship. If damaged or sold it will be removed from the model too. At the moment, fully functional - Witchdrive fuel ...

Okido,

It looked so very good on the player ship. Ah, well, we'll just settle for the straightforward method then.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Cim, I was experimenting with the code you wrote for engine trails. The one that Zirael used for his enginetrail oxp. It works well for the player ship, but is there any way to have it for NPC's as well. I like this one, since it gives you absolute freedom regarding length and dimentions of the trai...

A.M.A.Z.I.N.G

They are moving along a path as well.

Very cool Griff, downloading now and keeping them.
