Oolite Bulletins

... I'd rather like to switch towards an event based model, where some OXP would be telling the Debug Console about important world events. When I tried to write a simple world script handler that just forwards all events I found out that some events have additional data on them, such as `shipAttac...

Some is Telescope specific. The most often used is the last, _showProps(). _reportError() is useful in a 'catch' statement to give more context on exceptions.

cag, would you be willing to add support for OXPs to provide dynamically-generated options at runtime, or give me pointers on how to do it? I want to generate options for each primeable equipment that the player has . I've added a missionKey paramater when you registers which will allow you to pass...

Wondering: I never understood GravLock to mean anything in particular, and certainly not the way you defined it. I still don't really understand what the gravity scanner is supposed to do - or how it makes any difference to my game, other than funny sounds when I'm close to a Large Body... Might it...

Now that I have a world script running, I'd like to fire off messages to the Debug Console. ... But in both cases I can only send string values transported in packet type console output . Is there a chance to invent new packet types and send more structured items such as dictionaries or arrays? As ...

... Edited to add: the only really important issue that I have (and have had) with any of the versions of Telescope is "death by ILS". The other problems I find rather minor. As mentioned elsewhere, in my early days, I died 5 times by ILS/Telescope whilst being murdered only twice by pira...

I do think that separating lightballs from rings would be a good idea, and having the rings setting in in-flight be listed as something like "Rings in current context:" so that it's clear you're only modifying the current position in the matrix of condition & weapon status. done. http...

You must be using the in-flight config utility. Turns out that it treats MassLockRings as a toggle, not the flags in the station options :oops: (a hold over from 1.15). Nice catch. It should be fixed once you re-download (same dropbox links): Turns out, this new version appears to break the massloc...

Updated with a few bug fixes, one a memory corruption bug! (thanks arquebus)

I am noticing what I think is new behavior with Telescope 2.0. The lightball setting doesn't save between station launches. It always goes back to "ships" rather than sticking to the brighter masslock setting that I prefer. You must be using the in-flight config utility. Turns out that it...

2) there might be some conflict between your new auxiliary Telescope MFD (super idea, by the way!) and LittleBear's MFD Galactic Almanac MFD - I seem to get one or the other, but never both. Or perchance Stranger's Advanced System Data MFD |(which I also have up) has cast a plague on both their hou...

The Expansion Pack "Adds Station options to Telescope" was not loaded as it requires "Need Telescope OXP." which is not installed

Okay, I fixed the manifest to actually make sense. Links remains he same.
