Its a pleasure Sir, would you please update your links to Baakili Far Trader and Z-ships so that I can upload them as well ? :wink: BTW, do you intend to do future modifications yourself or would be it be more convenient if I maintenance them ?

Does anyone have a copy of cim's Galactic Misjump? The wiki page only links to his old site, which is dead.
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!

And, I stumbled across this: https://app.box.com/s/3nd49c88697vss81iqen Antient Aliens: Archaeological Ruins by Stormrider (an old mission, so probably broken). He last logged in in May 2019.

Does anybody know anything about it?

First time that I saw it. After I checked the code it looks like a WIP to me, when I installed it the game crashed on startup (unresolved subentity). I will fix the startup problem, so I could have a look at the station, maybe parts of the OXP could be used as eye-candies in combination with alien artifacts and some useful equipment once in a while available in the ruins. :wink:

Opening it up, there is a requires.plist and two folders. The Scripts folder is empty. The Config folder has 2 .plists and a script.js file.

Should not the script.js file be in the empty Scripts folder?

NB: link on Galactic Misjumps wiki page now updated.

I haven't had a chance to look at it yet, but 'twas only a tester and is not guaranteed to still work.
And thanks for updating the wiki page link - saves me blundering around.

Thank you Cody and Cholmondely,
after the file transfer is working we should upload to the expansion manger as well.

Most of the time yes, the only exception is if you intend to use it like a worldscript.

script.js should stay where it is. The game knows what to do with it.
