Following an earlier discussion, I've tidied up the code I use to set up test fights, and given it a usable frontend. You will need a nightly build of Oolite to use this OXP.
Download Combat Arena 1.0
Fly out to the "A" buoy (not far from the witchpoint, and since this is a testing OXP, there's one in every system), and shoot it to set up a fight. Tip: don't shoot it at close range with your front laser...
All ships appearing naturally in Oolite are ranked between "Unqualified" and "Mostly Harmless", by the way.
Enjoy - and let me know how the fights go!

For the third time today... thanks, cim.

Cool! Downloading! Thank you, cim.

Re: [Trunk only] Combat Arena OXP
There are clearly attempts to drag me back into playing the game!
I think I wished for something like this many years ago - I may have suggested weaving in and out of Asteroids ala Empire Strikes Back, but nice on Cim, nice one indeed.

Re: [Trunk only] Combat Arena OXP
The perfect chill-out between stressful runs, is Asteroids - try it with the hud turned off.
This Combat Arena is a cool OXP, cim - I got nicely wiped on my first few runs - six Cobras!

Re: [Trunk only] Combat Arena OXP
Very cool cim. 
DH, I know you were wanting shield flasher effects a very long time ago so when you finally get down to playing again you may want to check out the latest Custom Shields oxp and I hope you like it.DaddyHoggy wrote:

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.

As my 11yo daughter is prone to saying "Epic" - as soon as this next batch of lecturing is out of the way I'm on it! Brilliant, well done and thank-you!CommonSenseOTB wrote:Very cool cim.
