For a moment there, I thought you'd found the mythical system of Snusowt.
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

For a little moment in the preview, I thought I should add a space, but I liked the look
'do we have binary systems in oolite?'

Alas, no - more's the pity!

The enhanced nebula/star .oxz make for wonderful photo-ops, but navigating makes me a bit nauseous.
Lovely pictures ... but
which enhanced nebula/star oxz?

Good question! I use two:
KeeperSky.oxp
and a modified
ZygoSky 1.3.oxp
, and I ain't too sure which does what anymore, or if they compete with each other. Looks pretty good though. I also use the
star_count_multiplier
in my
planetinfo.plist
(also modified).
Which one cbr uses, I've no idea (though the nebulae look like Zygo's)!
The best nebula I've seen was definitely Zygo's...

Engineering trouble in cloudcity
Rebuilding cloudcity with prefab stations
Would be nice to limit traffic from the cloudcity satelites to shuttles between them, main cloudcity station and planet
(do npc with destination planet blow up while landing?)

Liberators? I recall an episode wherein a whole fleet of Liberators turn up (though that might've been the radio series).

The
BBC (among others) - and well worth a listen.
Blake's 7 had such excellent characters, a cut above other sci-fi series.
