Bugger it. I'm out of date already. When I've searched for the story I'm coming up with newer stories of the project being shelved (again!). :(

Cool! The route back across is easy enough to find.
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!

Dudes, hello again!

Good news is I'm back cruising the Ooniverse and cleaning up the space lanes.

Bad news is that my old laptop died fatally and with it went my 2000 kills and my iron-assed Cobra.

Ah well. I'm back on the trail and I'm up to 606 kills again and counting.

My son has just laughed at me as I sat here flying around and commentated on a dog-fight. "Only 5 of you? And you still want to go? Well OK but the 4 of you won't fly away from this you know. None of the 3 of you are good enough. Not you or your one remaining mate. Yeah go on! Run if you like, solo, but you'll still.......BOOM! 5-nil to Nellers! Will you never learn?"

Backups, man.. backups...

A simple method is to have your oolite-saves folder auto-synced with Dropbox. Then you'll never lose a gamesave again.
Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied

<nods sagely> Aye, and in triplicate - I stash saves regularly, both on my NAS, and in my Box.

Lesson learned, guys. The good thing is, though, that being a lower ranked pilot but with more experience I've been able to rack up the kills pretty quickly.
