Oolite Bulletins

• Ctrl-click auto zoom: zoom out now correctly repositions the selectors.

• Zooming in and out now zooms the link lines connected to overlapping systems.
• Overlapping systems separation distance now scales with zooming in and out too.

Hey PG - have you been altering any planet descriptions? I notice that Lave is famous for its 'Lavese tree grub' - has Laveian been superceded?

switch (rep.substr(rep.length - 1, 1))

This could be easily changed back if people complain enough.

Oh I wasn't complaining, as such - I just gotta get used to Zaquessoese evil juice, is all.

Time for another bump of this very useful tool.

• There is a new Galaxy Seed button. Click on this to change or reset the Galaxy seed numbers.

• Default button has been hidden (only appears if your browser does not support HTML5 LocalStorage) and you can use the "Oolite Default" option in a new drop-down in the Galaxy Seed dialog.
• The rest of the page is disabled when in the Galaxy Seed dialog. (The Galaxy Seed button also still works.)
• You can select saved seeds by name (named seeds) in the new drop-down. I have included a few examples that have been mentioned on the Oolite Bulletin Board.
• The name of the seed (if it has one) is displayed above the top left corner of the map.
• If you select a named seed that is not "Oolite Default" you may delete it or rename it by picking the appropriate option from the drop-down.
• If you change the seed manually to a set of numbers for an new/unsaved seed you get the option to save it from the drop-down. Selecting this pops up a Save Name dialog. (Use the "x" in the corner to close the dialog if it is unwanted.)
• If the current seed is one of the named ones then the drop-down will always have that name selected by default. If the seed is unnamed then the option "Other Galaxy Seed" will be displayed in the drop-down by default instead.
• Using HTML5 LocalStorage means that seeds and their names will be saved in the browser and they will be there when you return as long as you use the same PC and browser and you do not delete cookies for the page's domain.
• I have added a set of example seeds, most of which have been mentioned in BB. These will be added the first time you use this new version. Please delete them if you wish.
