Oolite Bulletins

Fixed

Have a look at this thread: 6286. It disolves into handbags at dawn towards the end but sorts itself out. It includes some interesting ideas (and not just from me).

Dropbox broke how public links are done so links to all my Oolite stuff are broken. So instead I am moving my files to my personal web site.

New URL is now: http://bit.ly/OoliteInteractiveMap

Please use this link rather than a direct one.

Yeah, noticed Quorn. I thought that was a villiage just north of my home city of Leicester and famous for the Quorn hunt. (As well as meat substitute)

The plists in Oolite are not accessed directly nor can you load an external file of your own. You can access data stored in missiontext.plist or you can put in a objects and arrays in the javascript files of your OXP/Zs The simplist is in the Javascript using Object or arrays: Objects syntax: {<prop...

Another method is the one I used use to switch between different testing set-ups and normal playing. As a Linux user I can use symbolic links via the "ln -s <source_folder> <new_folder>" command to link a folder to somewhere else at the same time as its true location. You can use this for ...

There's also Jens' 3D prototype .

Xchat2 was reasonable and ...

- to allow saving at a non-main station, that station has to be in the same place when the game is reloaded. They're positioned relative to the three main objects (witchpoint, planet, sun) so moving those objects breaks that. That doesn't make it impossible but it makes it harder - you can't simply...

1.79 now at least has a single sound library used on all platforms, which makes it practical to add new features without needing massive coordination between two or three different devs. So if you want any more features, now is a better time to ask than a few months ago was. Access to the ogg file ...

Here is a wav file with Festival's output for announcing Journey of the Sorcerer.
