I've just updated the wiki entry.

Thank you to Rxke for fixing this, and thanks to Richard for the time he has put in checking these older OXPs.

Hi again. This seems to be okay with 1.80. Were the ships always that black? Rich.

Were the ships always that black?
yes they were...

it was a primitive attempt to make the ships harder to hit... Mind you, this was the first ever oxp written by someone beside Giles, so the models were mere rip-off from the basic set, the skins just a slapped together piece of junk... AI was still very basic at that time, so you had little way of finetuning behaviour etc...

I wrote/ hacked it together between two exams, in the middle of the night, heh. Basically for bragging rights, and to prove that Giles idea of OXP's was brilliant, that it was possible for people with little knowledge of scripting to add to the game.


(Sigh, all of a sudden I feel very old...)
