Giant Space Pizza OXZ

Post by Smivs »

v3.1 OXZ now available. Full details are here.

This re-release expands greatly on V1.0.
This OXP is now fully scripted with lots of new features compared to V1.0, which simply had the Pizzas in solar orbit - these were just 'Easter Eggs' which you could stumble upon by accident.
However something this strange would surely be noted and exploited by the local community and it seemed reasonable that they would become tourist attractions with all the paraphernalia associated with this status.
This revised OXP still adds Giant Space Pizzas near to the Sun in thirteen systems spread through all eight Galaxies.
Each Giant Space Pizza has a Visitor Centre between the planet and the sun. Each time you dock at a Visitor Centre your visit is recorded, and if you visit all thirteen pizza Visitor Centres you will get a special award. The Visitor Centre also features a 'History of the Giant Space Pizza' presentation.
Adding the Visitor Centres also gave me the oportunity to keep a little bit of Oolite heritage alive. They are based on Dr Nil's original Constore which has now been superceded by the more sophisticated Griff model in both YAH and Taxi Galactica and was in danger of fading into obscurity. However it was ideal as the basis for the Pizza Visitor Centres and so, in an improved and up-dated form, lives on.
Pizza systems are marked on the short- and long-range charts, and the planet descriptions include mention of them. You will be reminded about the Pizza when you first dock at the main station in a Pizza System.
You do not need to visit the main station at a Pizza System, and can fly directly to the Visitor Centre if you prefer. These have a 'V' space compass legend.
You can start visiting the Pizzas in whichever galaxy you are in, and they do not have to be visited in a set order - just visit them as part of your normal travels around the Eight.
Of course if you wanted to treat this as a 'Tour' mission and deliberately visit them all in a relatively short timescale you can do that as well.

Maybe you could have mining ships from those pizza stores (or deployed from hyper-capable giant carrier ships emblazoned with the pizza store's logo) flying out to these GSPs for their ingredient harvest?

That's what I thought when I first installed it. :lol:

When Smivs asked me to test a wip he never really said what it was and not to look inside it first! As that is what ai usually do with testing.

"Just head for the star" he said
I was killing myself laughing! One of the best tests I have done in a long time :mrgreen:
Made me hungry though!!!
