Or perhaps a little worldscript that detects and moves them (if they have a suitable unique role)?

Or a world script that moves the player a little further away (who has a suitable unique role)? Could be easily incorporated into the YAH script:

Code: Select all

this.shipWillExitWitchspace = function()
{
    if(player.ship.position.magnitude() < 1000)
    {
        player.ship.position = [1000, 500, -2000];
    }
}
That'd be just one possible position far enough away, but with a good view to the tetrascreen.

If player.ship.position isn't yet defined during shipWillExitWitchspace (I haven't tested that yet), it could also be done during shipExitedWitchspace.

The PWEI (Post Witchspace Exit Inhibitor) - sustains the respulitron particles gathered during Witch-tunnel transit and traps them temporarily within the shield matrix.

As far as the pilot is concerned the PWEI gives the ship apparently infinite amounts of energy and is therefore temporarily indestructible (for about 5 seconds) - of course what is actually happening is that the repulsitrons are acting as a buffer between the ship and "normal" space so that even large and very solid objects seem to bounce off the surface of the ship...
Hmmm - sounds like it makes a ship almost... Bulletproof Image

I'm trying different Oolite plug-ins now that I have a video card and I must say YAH is very funny and creative. Kudos to the community as a whole.

Will the fix for nearly crashing into a billboard after jumping be out at around the time H and I roll out? It is but a minor gameplay issue for me, but when I drive on the Interstate, the local governments don't place billboards right in the middle of the road for me to avoid while going 100+ KPH! :lol:

As I was bored on the flight back from Geneva on Friday - have a little add-on OXP.

YAH Mobile

This small add-on OXP introduces ship-towed mobile ad billboards to route one of most systems (those which meet the normal YAH criteria). They just tour back and forward between the witchpoint and the planet along the main space lane, advertising their wares and generally getting in the way (just like their real-world equivalents!).

Anyway as the wiki is down at the moment, download from box.net via this link.

It requires at least one of the sets to be installed, and is compatible with existing sets A-G and upcoming sets H-J (presuming the format stays the same).

Oops, uploaded a slightly incorrect version (there's a ; missing at the end of line 7 of the shipdata.plist).

Corrected now, but can the two of you who've downloaded it either re-download or just amend the file please?

Since I don't know what else to do I can safely say that future sets will be the same.

(Apologies again for forgetting to test...)

Is it worth splitting the section about YAH Mobile into a separate thread? As more ads get made the OXP may get lost? I nearly didn't notice it myself.

I hope this is the right place for a bug report. On my Windows system running 1.76, the Oodles constore appears untextured on the side with the dock, while all other varieties are properly coloured and shaded. I'm using two AMD Radeon 6800 HD cards in a Crossfire arrangement, and as far as I know my graphics drivers are up to date.

Some screenshots I made (1920x1080 res):

It's a bug (one of several) in set G.

It's been fixed in the repackaged YAH 4.1.7 and fully updated for 4.1.7 sets A-G available from this link.

I don't know if it is the same link as you send me before, but now it is not working for me. I enter the download page correct, but, before it is completely build, I am redirected to a log-in page for skydrive users. No change to see the actual file for download.

Odd - when I sign out and then click the link I get this page. I'll clear my cookies and history and try with another browser as-well, but the link should give access to anyone to that particular folder in my skydrive.
