OXP giving me a reason to leave galaxy one

Post by Teschnertron »

Hello,

I'm in search of the ultimativ Oolite-feeling. Is there any OXP giving me a true goal to visit all 8 galaxies? Reading the official list of OXPs I've come to the conclusion most of them are made for galaxy one. I found "Explorer's Club", but is there anything else which give's me a true goal? Something like finding a special planet where I can find a special usefull item, i.e. a laser-cooler or somemething else? Just anything I can't get at the normal stations?

There are several epic mission OXPs that start in other octants (not to mention the native Oolite missions, of course).
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

<nods> Certain OXPs require the player to have completed all (or some) of the native missions first.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned the Assassin's Guild yet :twisted: (it's missions take place in G7 ;))

G7 is interesting. But I've been never in the mood to play a nagatv character. Sorry. I don't have to compensate something.

I'll try it. Thank you for that note.
My next 'quest' is giving version 1.77.x.x.x a chance, the last nightly version is running on my Mac. :D

I'm afraid of some time for updating but I think it is worth to do this.

Update finished one and a half ours later. I hope.
