A 5 ton cargo pod?

Post by davcefai »

I scooped a container and the text "5 tons narcotics" flashed up on screen. Pressing F8 revealed that I had, truly, increased my inventory by 5 tons of narcotics.

Bug or feature? I've never seen (or at least noticed) this before.

Sounds like the product of an OXP ... what do you have running?

The washington State Pot Growers Association has reported that they have "lost" 5 tons of Pot and that they would like it back.
The State of Washington Tax Auditors are investigating this "loss" as an evasion to pay proper taxes on a consumable item.

[wiki]Towbar[/wiki] has the same (but maybe not so exclusive) feature.

Read my post again ;)

I'm still lurking when I can, but nowhere near as much as before and with no time for doing anything more constructive than the occasional post. The OXP library is still open for anyone who may wish to take them over.

Perhaps you could put up a post similar to the one I made for Svengali?
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
