I wasn't sure about including all the links. Let me know if you want them.

Summary of recent Oolite activity

An update to "Summary of recent Oolite activity for January 2024"

1) English Bulletin Board
This started suffering problems (due to old software) and was taken down. Timer (bless his cotton socks!) was good enough to migrate it over to his new oolite.space website, where it now resides.

This means that most of the old references to Oolite which are sprinkled around the world-wide web (Oolite.org/aegidian.org) are now misleading. Only our wiki is still at the original location.


2) OXPs

2a) Revamped old favourites (almost all by Phkb)
Another Commander (a_c) has been relentlessly improving the graphics in Oolite. Griff (and Killer Wolf) have incorporated this in their newer OXPs, but ships and stations in other old OXPs now look poor. Therefore many of these have been updated.
- Armoured Transport Type 1 - retextures this 2005 ship OXP and adds in armoured viper escorts for it
- Astrofactory has finally had "Revolutionary Astrofarms" added for the "agricultural Dictator juntas" (the original idea as proposed back in 2007!)
- Auto Skim OXP has been updated to work with newer oolite versions (for sun-skimming for fuel)
- Coyote's Run (mission in G5, based on the Oolite novel)
- Deposed (mission in G4)
- Fuel Tweaks had many extras hidden inside. These are now more apparent. And, one has the option to now refuel only at a fuel station.
- In System Trader now works!
- Jaguar Company has been updated for the newer versions of Oolite
- Lave OXP has a new planet texture with city lights and replaces Murgh's low poly ships with Griff equivalents
- Riredi OXP has a new planet texture with city lights & lore-based landing sites, as well as a new commodity for New Cargoes OXP
- SW Economy has finally had mining worlds economies tweaked to make agricultural goods more expensive there (but not yet Oxygen & Medicine)
- Ship's Library MFDs are now free and are more usable
- The Assassins Guild Rebooted (Littlebear) updates the missions - and G7 too!
- Tionisla Orbital Graveyard - Memorials (v2.2) - Now includes Commander Vasig, Requiscat In Pacem.

2b) New OXPS
Another Commander (a_c)
- WOOT-Attack! Causes some NPCs to attack you if they notice that you "target" them with your weapons on-line

Cholmondely
- Start Locations Variety Pack - start in G1 Velete, or in G2-G8.

Captain Beatnik
- CB-HUD Mark III

DGill
- Feudal States Extended, Feudal States Images, Feudal States Ships and Feudal States Tibecea - this is still a Beta, but extends Ramirez's 2012 original to G7/8, adds in many more missions, provides images for Feudal landing sites (especially Aronar, Digebiti & Tibecea in G1), is the first OXP to really use the P.A.D. in Library.oxp and the facilities of PlanetFall2, and allows grants of land downplanet and the experience of running them.

Griff
- Griff has added another SpecGloss texture for the core ships - the Moray, which makes 7 so far.

Killer Wolf
- a new Nuit MkII station (this has not yet had "External Docking" added to it).
- Cobra Mk IX

Littlebear
- The Assassins Guild Rebooted

mlewissmith
- Ship Energy Containment Unit - a "cheat" improving survival in combat

Redspear
- Pilot License - start in an adder, and get better ships/equipment with better Elite ratings/rankings
- Rise of the Hunter - weaker police, stronger bounty hunters
- Alien Systems has been further developed

Phkb
Phkb is more and more adding Library's "Config for Addons" to his OXPs to allows easy tweaking.

Improving the core vanilla game
- Adjust Primable Equipment Manager - retitles these F4 Primable Equipment pages to make them more comprehensible (in English!)
- Loadout by Category - reorders the equipment lists on the F3/F5 screens, adding in equipment categories
- Lave initial shipyard - tweaks the shipyard to allow downgrading your Cobra Mk3 to a Cobra Mk1 or an Adder, and then spending the extra money

- Anaconda Cruise Liners - adds in cruise liners from different companies to different galaxies (this is for a future Corporate States OXP)

Retextures ("Facelifts")

- Retextures for Deep Space Dredgers
- Retextures for Fuel Stations
- Retextures for Pit Viper MarkII (Coluber)
- Retextures for WildShips - also works for Stranger's World Orbital Stations
- Wireframe Ship Images - now needed for newer Vimana-X HUD
- Silicone Sealant (plugs fuel leaks for a time) - vital for Stranger's World!

Strangers World
- Commies Orbit Update (changes position of SLAPUs/CZGFs so that they orbit the sun in Stranger's World)

External Docking and PlanetFall2
- External Docking system - allows External Docking at Extra Rock Hermits and at Nuit (MkI) stations. Needed for Planetfall2
- Extra Rock Hermits - new models of Rock Hermits, some with External Docking ports
- Nuit Space Station (Nuit MkI) - Phkb added a retexture, external docking & externally docked liners to Killer Wolf's OXP.
- Planetfall2 - now has a different mechanism. You fight your way through turbulence to elevator points just above the planet surface which take you down to separate docking stations connected by a train-line. So far, only DGill's Feudal States rejig does anything with this.
Note that "Landing sites" are not added to "Stranger's World "moons and secondary planets because they orbit. They are added to moons/secondary planets in the "Additional Planets" suite (which do not move).
- Planet Rotation Cosmetics - slows down planet's rotation as one approaches to land
- Feudal PlanetFall Customisations/Feudal PlanetFall2 adds Feudal landing sites to feudal planets
- Navigation Beacons MFD lists the closest beacons (including those on Planetfall2 sites)

Oolite v.1.91 (currently not for AppleMac/Linux)
- ConsoleLogMFD (needs Oolite v.1.91) - adds in a log for console (non-"communication") messages
- Contextual Help (needs Oolite v.1.91)

OXP Developers
- There are several other OXPs written to help other OXP developers (see his wiki page for details)

Switeck
- Galactic Navy OXP - a new version of the original OXP with only 2-3 bases in each galaxy and a progression in toughness as one moves from G1-G8

Wildeblood
Some of these are designed to teach Javascript programming, focusing on just one small change in the game.
2025:
DistantSpace.oxz (Meta OXZ, requires Distant Realms and Distant Locales.)
Distant Locales.oxz (Gives F7 screen titles to everything including non-regional systems!)
Distant Realms US.oxz (Apparently they spell centre 'center'.)
Dynooverse.oxz - a dynamically changing Ooniverse, with changes to populations, economies, et cetera
Smart Home Control.oxz (boils your smart kettle from inside Oolite!).
Throbtastic Crosshairs.oxz (Crosshairs throb whenever weapons are online)
Very Advanced Space Compass.oxz (aligns your ship with your compass selection)
Visits.oxz (System Visits Counter, an alternative to Explorers' Club.)
Wildeblood Manor.oxz (places picture of Manor on F7 screen for G1 Vetitice)
Witch Bank.oxz (bank taking deposits)
World Builder.oxz (modify the system/s of your choice)
2024:
Demo Screen Backgrounds.oxz
Distant Realms.oxz (Update: Names the Galactic Regions on the F6 map - now expanded to G3-G8)
Docked_HUDs.oxz (Update: much improved and now gives prompts for new players)
Free the Slaves.oxz (They will nag you if you accidentally buy slaves at a Galcop station.)
SEX Drive.oxz (It's even got a wiki page, so it must be good: SE-X Drive.) - cheat teleporting to the station from the witchpoint beacon
