Con-stores

Post by Lysander »

Advice please on "con-stores" or "constations"recommended by some as trading posts. I cannot find an oxp for constores or con stations, do they exist on certain planet types only. I am on v1.72.1 with Randon hits oxp loaded, still no luck.

10 days in now looking good after all your good advice, good missions and trade, but need the cash to get those dream ships you have been suggesting. A million credits each? Sorry guys I don't want to go to the Black Monks for that!

The OXP you need is Your Ad here plus it's add-on packs (at least one of them). Although it's under revision at the moment to replace the Con Stores with the much prettier trading outposts. When added they appear in non-anarchy systems near the witchpoint.

You can grab the original version via the wiki, the new one is in progress but a beta I think is available. See the threads in the expansion pack forum.

BTW, you can install more than one OXP at once ;)

The Con Stores also need a planetary population of 4 billion+ before they show up – you don't get them everywhere.

Glad of that, when I look at my addon folder, I have to scroll to see them all. Have started to be more selective now. So created a folder just under the Oolite folder. "Extras" and store them all in there for easier chopping and changing.
This really makes Oolite the best game ever.
Many, Many thanks to all you bright guys that know how to write code.
Fraid I'm just a dumb joy jock. :D
