Yes, Inside the package that is the Oolite app. I suppose I don't use the word vanilla enough. Can't make myself do it.
You made me flinch and rush to check.
I'd never realised just how ambiguous "no" can be, when used by a verbose Englishman. This might be the third time that I've managed this on these boards.

Sorry - you must mean the summaries on the top-right of the Ship Library/Ship Specifications page.

Not to my knowledge, there are some specifications in the core game while others were designed by authors.Cholmondely wrote: ↑Wed Jun 29, 2022 8:32 amSorry - you must mean the summaries on the top-right of the Ship Library/Ship Specifications page. I'd not realised.
They are not used for anything else then?

In my copy of your oxp (17th April, b3 1024), "diligent" was incorrectly written as dilligent. Hence my multiplication of the ll's.
For transports and freighters, the cargo space is relevant, for most other ships, as Cody said. Please keep in mind that they are designed for the core-ships, some OXP ships don't fit in any of them. A reason why earlier today I suggested more categories and summaries so that not every author is creating new ones and earlier or later the entire shiplibrary will be more confusing than helpful.Cholmondely wrote: ↑Wed Jun 29, 2022 11:02 amDoes anybody have any idea what the differences are between light : medium : heavy?
Is it mass? Size?
And where are the cut-offs?

Are these relevant? Category:Drones

description = "Cobra modified for mining with much more cargo space but rather less energy and fewer missile/laser mounts ";
ship = "cobra3-miner";
summary = "Miner";

)I would say so, Griff Robotic Cargo Loader probably fits as well.
