You might look inside asteroidStorm.oxp. And more specific in the file: planetinfo.plist. There a specific station is defined for a specific system. You could do something similar to create your station.RyanHoots wrote:I would like to make a station that stays in one system and, if possible, is always there like Lave's moon in the Lave OXP. I have never made or attempted a dockable OXP. I plan to use the Dodecahedron design. Thanks.
Thanks for the tip, I'll look at those.Killer Wolf wrote:The Sothis OXP (and Wasps.OXP) has a pseudorandom seed that places a station in certain systems - it means they don't appear in every system but they will appear consistently in the ones they're selected to
And since 1.75 is scrambledPseudoRandomNumber part of oolite code and you don't need to write it yourself like Killer Wolf had to do.RyanHoots wrote:Thanks for the tip, I'll look at those.Killer Wolf wrote:The Sothis OXP (and Wasps.OXP) has a pseudorandom seed that places a station in certain systems - it means they don't appear in every system but they will appear consistently in the ones they're selected to
I presume you plan to retexture a copy of new-dodo.dat (found in ...\Oolite\oolite.app\Resources\Models) with your own texture(s)?RyanHoots wrote:How would I edit the model to use my textures?

If all you want to do is change the texture, use a material entry in the shipdata.plist entry:Zieman wrote:These are quite sel-explanatory, just change all bottom_metal.png 's to yournewfancydodecbottom.png (or whatever you have named the texture), and the same for all others.
