Its a Feudal State - perhaps the should be using Palanquins:Wildeblood wrote: ↑Sat Aug 24, 2024 10:17 am
That's cool, how in a thousand years time, they're still using steel rails with sleepers - none of that maglev nonsense. I wonder if Victoria will have standard gauge tracks by then?
As DGill pointed out:
Oh dear me. Wildeblood, we're talking specifically about Digebiti here, old boy.Its a Feudal State - perhaps they should be using Palanquins
...I must say that the export of luxurious hand-crafted sedan chairs and inter-city palanquins from the Cholmondeley estates in Digebiti is a matter of grave concern to cousin Digby. The market in Isinor has dried up and the promised interest (not for the palanquins) amongst the grandees in Tibecea has yet to materialise. Feudal duty to the employed families necessitates the location of new markets. (Attempts to promote their use on the main orbital station above Digebiti have been massively locked by the need to widen the corridors to allow the chairs to pass each other. Work is theoretically on-going but all seems static at the moment.)
...How do I add top hats and inter-city palanquins to the unending Digebiti.oxp as Digebitian New Cargoes?
The toppers sell well in Tibecea (0:170), Ribiso (0:115) and Raleen (0:240).
"T?","textiles","Silk Top Hats","A distinctive luxury hat, worn by the gentry and their peers. Not to be confused with the cheaper felt top hats."
The palanquins sell well in Ceedra (0:15), Reorte (0:39), Leoned (0:97) and Xeququti (0:205).
"X?","luxuries","Inter-city palanquins","Large palanquins, luxuriously appointed, needing a dozen or more chairmen to carry them."
Just because your venerated Vetitice is the home of the Parking Meter industry...Something like this:Code: Select all

Yeah, nah. Whoosh, etc. You're talking about Digebiti. I was talking about Victoria.Cholmondely wrote: ↑Sat Aug 24, 2024 9:36 pmOh dear me. Wildeblood, we're talking specifically about Digebiti here, old boy.

Ah yes. Thank you. I had vague memory of a discussion but couldn't form a useful search.Nite Owl wrote: ↑Thu Sep 26, 2024 11:00 amWhat you are looking for is PLANET ROTATION COSMETICS v1.1 which is a companion OXZ to Planetfall 2. It slows a Planet's rotation the closer you get to the surface. The Landing Site Markers will therefore visually stay over a specific surface location for a longer period of time. As for the Landing Site Markers being 1 or 2 Kiloometers above a planet's surface think of them as an entry point. Once you cross its threshold either Ground Control or your Ship's Guidance Computer takes control as the landing approach and touch down on the planet's surface are made.
Odd.

I guess some better user feedback should be available. I'll look into the double odd.MrFlibble wrote: ↑Thu Sep 26, 2024 12:53 pm
Odd.
Using the in game expansion manager I see v1.1, but attempting to download it I get "Downloading Planet Rotation Cosmetics : Unknown of Unknown", and the download never completes. Info shows tags 'null'.
Double odd.
Starter shows a size of 1.4k. I select it on the left and hit the arrow to install it. The progress 'scanner' sweeps to and fro for a few seconds, and voila! ...it silently fails to install.
