Introduce Yourself.

[CMDR_Lemon73]

Hello fellow space travellers.

I'm Dave, I first played Elite on my C64, then on my Amiga 500. The game is one of the pillars of my life and Oolite allows me to continue the love-in.

Thank you to everyone who has helped create Oolite and the many creative folks who have made the many fantastic OXPs which have taken the game to another level.

I have modded a few OXPs for my own in-game experience and I am here because I need some help getting a couple of OXPs to work the way I want to, namely the Ore Processor and my own modded "Temple of Groove" stations that are a variant of the "Ryan's Villa" oxp.

Hope to see you about the forums.

Dave.

Hello fellow space travellers.

Hi Dave and welcome.

Speccy veteran here but yeah, the original concept and execution were something else. Beutifully flawed in places perhpas but that too was part of the charm.

Check out the tinkerer's workshop thread (if you don't already know it) or even the scripter's cove (under 'expansion pack' section of site), both great places to ask for help as well as the thread of the relevant oxp.

More power to your energy banks,

R.

Welcome and Bienvenue! Hoping you survive the dreaded experience of the "Friendliest BB this side of Reidquat"!


What the dickens is a Temple of Groove? What does it do - and whom does it do it to? (And have you nosed around the LitF oxp? Latest alpha download is here).

Reverential to PA perhaps?

Hi - returning to Oolite after an enforced break... don't think I've ever introduced myself though..

Rob - started playing Elite on the old ZX Spectrum back in the day, got all the way to deadly but never lasted the whole course..

discovered Oolite several years ago, had it installed on my PC for a good while (Windows build).

Liking the new OoliteStarter and latest builds, have the game setup with many OXPs , currently halfway through visiting everywhere in Galaxy 1..

I have hit what i think is a bug - my kill count is stuck at same number (131) - does not increase when i dock...i get the emails on the email oxp system.

Which thread do i report it on... ?

Welcome!!

Odd. Maybe try with a newer build and see if the bug vanishes. If not, then I'd be tempted to edit the save file and increment the number by one. Either way, let us know what happens.

Welcome back!

How long ago were you Ooliting? The Aegidian era (2003-6) or more recently?

Welcome back!

On and off for about 8 years or so i would say - never inclined to get my hands dirty in OXP's , and never got beyond galaxy one - i would play for a bit then something else would grab my attention - Elite Dangerous did for a good year or so. But I always find myself heading back here - its just great catching up with old OXPs and seeing the expansions grow.

Update to kill count issue - tried saving to a different save name - same problem. Manually updating the kill count on the save file DOES work, shows up in game and on the Oolite Starter, but still no increase in the game itself... very odd. Im loathe to start again, for obvious reasons...

I wonder if I have some old remnant of OXP or something stopping it working ?? Like I said, ALL other things update fine - credits, position, cargo etc etc..
