Happy to hear you are back! There has been a lot of wiki material added, if you want to grab any for your Roolite pages...
Have you seen these new wiki pages?
Guide to Unlisted OXPs
Brilliant but broken...
List of Lost OXP's
Synopsis of current Oolite activity:
Catalogs of oxp's:
Oolite.org:
*List on the Expansions Manager (now 700)
Wiki lists (add another 400):
*OXP List
*Guide to Unlisted OXPs
*Brilliant but broken... (some still work with older versions of Oolite)
*List of Lost OXP's (just started)
Wiki essays possibly worth looking at:
*Oolite - contains an attempt to summarise how things have changed since 2003/4
*Lore - how views about this have changed since the Aegidian Era
*Oolite Literature
*There have been some additions to the Rough Guide to the ooniverse (Isence, Qutiri, Tibecea & Zarece, the ships and the introduction)
*Church of Giles the Creator
*Cheating - how views have changed since the Aegidian Era
Current big projects:
Littlebear's Galactic Almanac (Beta) - it started off as "Random Station Names", but has gro-o-o-own.
Redspear's Rescaling Experiment (long-running, windows only) as well as some smaller oxp's
Hiran's multiplayer Oolite Communicator
Cody & Disembodied's HIMSN [Her Imperial Majesty's Space Navy] (first stage finally published).
Montana05 has a number of different projects on the go in between rescuing old ship.oxp's - he's put a large number up on the Expansions Manager.
Phkb has been rejigging the vanilla code Keyboard configuration to allow foreign Linux users a chance to play the game with a full set of keypresses - and is mulling over a new tweak for anarchy systems where pirates take over the orbital station. His most recent magnum opus is Hermitage - manage your own Rock Hermit!
I hope that this is a reasonably honest synopsis of the current state of affairs...
And... there are also several people who are busy doing their own thing and who may well never publish publicly: CSOTB's Oolite 2.0, DGill's wonderful Feudal Nirvana & Frame's work on Babylon5.
And of course, our current intrepid "poorly-playing" YouTube streamer, Arquebus... as well as Russell in Russian
