Oolite Bulletins

Last week I noticed the custom commodity.plist did not work for the behemoth. It is probably already broken since the 2.0 release with the second ship type. I now uploaded now a corrected version as Behemoth 2.5.2. This can be downloaded from the wika at the Behemoth download page

While playing I got a message of a missing "behemoth-nimrod" in the log.

I never saw this error before, but looking in the oxp, I noticed the nimrod indeed had the wrong role. C&P error. Looking back in my originals I noticed this bug was already present in Aegidians first release that contained this ship. Strange such a bug stays that long unnoticed.

Anyhow, a new version 2.5.4 with this bug corrected is available at the Behemoth download page

I docked in a behemoth in interstellar space. And then I couldn't launch - other controls worked, but F1 did not. And I had the following in the log.

I've got Behemoth 2.5.4, and BehemothSpacewar 1.2.3.oxp, and Oolite 1.74.1.

I saw a minor log error today with Behemoth 2.6

12:00:06.941 [ai.load.failed.unknownAI]: Can't switch AI for <ShipEntity 0x7f49c8a9b7d0>{"Naval Asp Mark II-a"} from behemothFighterDockingAI.plist:NEXT_TARGET to "route1PatrolAI.plist" - could not load file.

behemoth 2.6.oxp/AIs/behemothFighterDockingAI.plist has a few references to "route1PatrolAI.plist" which should presumably read "route1patrolAI.plist"

Thanks. You probably are on linux, as windows and macs are not that case sensitive with filenames.
I've fixed it now locally and it will be in a future update.

Hey! I just had a Behemoth Type 21 without texture (the red green thing). Posted that as well on the thread for thenew OXP from spara, as it never happened before...

I can't seem to locate (a mention of) that tool. What/where is it, please? I might find it useful. Cheers.

There is a naming conflict in the oxp.

Shipdata.plist says "behemoth-Colossus" and behemoth.js says "behemoth-colossus". Changing behemoth.js to say "behemoth-Colossus" should fix it and break nothing.
Sorry for the false alarm, nothing wrong here. I must have been tired.

Error report:

Looks like a case error. Should be route1patrolAI.plist.
