Let's catch up a little bit with what has happened lately in Oolite. In the last few months, we' ve had:
- Implementation of the [-]-help command line option, which brings up info about the available command line switches.
- OXZs in the in-game manager can be now filtered by category. Use
c:
as the filter.
- Mouse sensitivity is now user configurable. Use the "mouse-flight-sensitivity" key in the user defaults file, range is 0.005 to 1.0. Default is 0.95.
- For the Windows port, we now have color gamut expansion in HDR for more vivid and saturated colors when necessary.
- For the Windows port, we now have a new HDR screenshot format which allows us to save screenies in expanded colorspaces like DCI-P3 and BT2020. (Sorry no example available for the last two because you would need an HDR display to be able to view it properly).
- New wormhole effect (best viewed animated in-game):
- New ECM effect (does not look great in a static image, best viewed animated in-game):
This is the effect you see whenever an ECM blast is triggered, be it originating from the player or from an NPC. If you don't want it, it can be disabled by setting the key"ecm-visual-fx"
to NO in the user defaults file.
