I like that very much, something a story could be built around and would be cool if rock hermits were actually one of these in high tech or high productivity systems, one per system.Ross154 wrote:A city built on an asteroid
Take an idea from one person and twist or modify it in a different way as a return suggestion so another person can see a part of it that can apply to the oxp they are working on.

That really is a cool idea, but I want to know one thing. Does this asteroid have some kind of corrective thrusters? Asteroids have a nasty habit of smashing into things.......like space stations.

But it might be research laboratory. Or a ooniversity. Or a mootel. Or ...
... ready for this? ...
... a moonastery.
Sorry. I'll get my coat...

Re: Show and Tell (new ships/ ships in progress)
I thought that idea was already used with the Black Moonks oxp. 
Re: Show and Tell (new ships/ ships in progress)
Good thing its not built on a moon, or it might be a MoOonastery.

What if the monks had domesticated the lethal spotted bovines of Onrira? Then it would be a MooooOonastery.Storm wrote:Good thing its not built on a moon, or it might be a MoOonastery.

I have transferred all the pics in this post to a new Topic I started called mandoman's ships. Original, eh?

Re: Show and Tell (new ships/ ships in progress)
They all look great!
What i have seen so far is that you can make the ship in the blender. but then they go on to things added like lights and visual effects,thats a java?
i can see the nightmare of makeing 1 or 3 programs run together(<---just asked about puting a file in a file)/sigh
but how hard would it be to make sparks or lights place them properly and run them on a loop.
can all the scripts be the same for like a control c control v thing? and maby a location swap instructions?
(why is it when you guys explane its easy to understand and the text is so ??)

Re: Show and Tell (new ships/ ships in progress)
No, the lights aren't script. You can control how the lights work with Java script......I think. Lights on ships are referred to as "flashers" in the shipdata.plist. They are a subentity, like ball turrets, or making some part rotate (that looks like a nightmare to me). Scripts are suppose to work with the Oolite game, and your own personal AIs to make specific things happen in an oxp. I'm no expert at it, so I shouldn't be explaining it, but I think that's right. If not, someone chime in and put me in my place, please.jadenrayn wrote:What i have seen so far is that you can make the ship in the blender. but then they go on to things added like lights and visual effects,thats a java?

As for how you learn, or understand? That's different for every person, so don't sweat it.
