Oh no, it's the SOPA/PIPA black-out!

My mistake, I didn't move the image out of the quick facts box (which does not display them anymore). I corrected both and will do a QA run across the other pages that use the template to catch others where I also forgot to move the image.

Edit: done. There were quite a few, in the majority of cases it seems that I only moved the images when there was e.g. a ship info box to put them in. :oops:

zarkov, one way to find where you put the Nuit stuff may be to use your OS's search feature, look for files with Nuit-specific names, like e.g. docknuit.dat, then you will should have found the oxp's model folder. One folder upwards should be the Nuit-folder.

On some systems that proofs to be difficult. On the mac are oxps seen as single files and the content is not indexed for the default search mechanism.

What does work perfect is the terminal and using the 'grep' command.

Code: Select all

$ cd [your AddOn's folder]
$ grep -r -i -l "[search string]" *
That will list all files matching the search string (and hence identifies all the OXPs containing the string).
-r - recursive (Omit to search only current directory)
-i - ignore case (Omit for case-sensitive search)
-l - only show matching files (Omit to show matching lines)
(Thanks Micha for above tips about grep)

First set the search path to your addOns folder. On the mac, just type 'cd' and than drop the addOns folder on the terminal window. (That adds the correct path for you).
Than with grep look for an unique as possible string of which you know it should be in the oxp (like a ships name) and put that between the "".

I think grep works on all platforms. Maybe an idea to put it in the frequently asked questions as more people might look for specific stuff they can't find.

That will find all files containing the search string inside them. To find all files with a particular name, you'd want

Code: Select all

find [your AddOns folder] -name [filename]
(on Linux, anyway, but I think it works also on Mac command lines)
With OXP structure being what it is, any distinctively-named file in an OXP will of course be mentioned by name within the OXP, so grep works, but find will be significantly faster than grep because it doesn't need to look inside any files. (And also, if one OXP depends on another OXP, find will tell you which OXP contains the file rather than which OXPs depend on that file)

Neither works on Windows, sadly, unless you've installed the software separately, but the standard windows search is good enough for basic work. (Windows XP does have a

Code: Select all

FIND
command, which confusingly is more like grep than find, but isn't very useful as a replacement for grep: stick to the GUI search)

That’s not entirely true. File names aren’t (always) indexed, but ship IDs are. However, the preferred AddOns location, in ~/Library/, is excluded by default. To search there, you have to add the search criterion “System files” “are included”.

wow, this cross-platforming is really affecting much more than I would have thought.
grep

on my windows XP, only when I install and use un*xutils, or mingw, or some such.

You are right. Because the standard search never returned a plist file with the content, I thought it didn't find it. But looking better I see it returns the oxp itself as result because its seen as one file. Searching for specific strings inside plists or js scripts shows that they are indexed after all and thus found instantaneously in most cases. Even comments I put in scripts and not only the ship IDs.

Including system files helps of cause, or the oxps in the library they were skipped altogether. I'll remember to include them in a search next time.

Many thanks to everyone for your time and advice. It was the Nuit station despite it's absence from the log file, but reinstalling system redux and its update has removed it from the screen. The log file looks cleaner (to an extremely inexperienced eye - and I have removed several OXPs), but there remains a consistent failure to connect to the debux console. Would I be right to assume that this could be due to firewall interference and is it important that this connection is established?

Here's the log file....

I've just noticed reference to "oolite-cloaking-device" Is this a handy piece of kit I can access in the heat of battle :D

Yes, once you've got it, which you will only in a higher galaxy.

Not unless you’re trying to use it, although it is a bit odd for a firewall to stop a computer from connecting to itself.

I just swapped from Norman AV suite (inc firewall) to M$ Essentials and Windows firewall, and the first time I ran the game afterwards I had to OK the use of the debug console with the firewall.

Remembering that you can have the console on a different machine to the one the game is on, it's perhaps not so odd? It's defined as an inbound rule under the firewall (Win7 Home Premium).

Thanks again - I wouldn't know what to do with a debug console so I'm happy to leave it well alone.
