Something I'm working on to bring a little more colour into the game.

The livery is inspired by a German shipping company (example).

Stress test: 600 entities, of which about 530 are asteroids, on an i3 3GHz with an NVidia GeForce GTS 450. In this screenshot, 30fps at 1920x1080 on Extra Detail. I believe the bottleneck is on the i3 CPU.

Similar test with i3 internal graphics give 25FPS, but only 15FPS if I go outside of the asteroid field and look back to see all of them within the screen.

Unfortunately, that doesn't tell us a lot without knowing what the onboard graphics chip is, and how much system RAM it can access.
Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied

HD4000 chip with 1GB assigned RAM and a 3 years old i3-3225 3.3GHz CPU.

Today's similar cheap-and-good one is the i3-4170 3.7GHz with HD4400 and ability to handle an UHD display without additional videocard (3840x2160@60Hz).

Combat between pirates and police inside an asteroid field.

This last one was taken one millisecond before the missile vaporized the Mamba.

awesome!

I remember I had a slightly "reduced" experience in one of the early Rescue station oxp with a pirate lurking in an asteroid field where I was looking for a blackbox.

More than 6000 credits for a salvaged Vortex. The first I defeated. Got lucky he ejected and the derelict was still there when I got back.
Dredgers allow for actually making money from bounty hunting instead of losing it to repairs.

Yes, a salvage missile in Deep Space Dredger is easier, moreover the fastest is launching a pylon mounted Tug Drone.

Just playing around with Spara's asteroid tweaks, and Corona_flare and corona_hues values:

/e: forgot to mention it was a bit like flying through dense fog... quite spooky... Wondering if this could be used to make a sun flare/flicker randomly via an oxp.

Trivial; the corona values are writeable by JS and the rendering of the sun changes immediately if they are altered.
