It is a branch (replacing the normak Oolite Exe). Very cool but only works on the PC. The foram for it is at this link:-
https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.ph ... c&start=15
One of the authors posts on the second page has a link to download the branch.

Hi Drew,
I've just ordered my copy of "Status Quo" from CafePress. So, how many does that make?
Cheers,

Book arrived (yesterday) book read (also yesterday) - good story - pretty hectic near the end! Potential opening for a sequel I note. I also have to note that there were some funny spelling mistakes and grammatical errors still outstanding (if you ever do a reprint you might want to correct them).
Have to say that I enjoyed it very much indeed. Well done. Lots of in jokes too - I think I spotted them all!
C64 eh? So its almost a buckmeister-fullereine then (C60?)....

Glad you enjoyed it! Yes, I've spotted a few errors too, thanks for that. I'll update it at some point.
I ought to publish a list of all the 'jokes'.
Sequel.... now there's an idea!
22 copies sold. Not bad for a first venture!
Cheers,
Drew.

Hello Drew, any idea on how long a hard copy takes to come through. Ordered mine on 22nd April. Sorry for being impatient but I cant wait to get hold of a copy.
Cheers

Hi Cos,
It's showing up in my cafepress account as 'complete'. I imagine it should be with you soon. I think it was 7-10 days on average for most folks.
If you don't receive it soon, chase them via the transaction email you got - if still no joy let me know and I should be able to chase for you.
Thanks for buying a hardcopy!
Cheers,
Drew.
