Oolite Bulletins

I discovered this was possible accidentally while working on something else, and then decided it would make a nice extra cosmetic effect for misjumps.

To try it, install the OXP, then misjump.

[EDIT: Updated to 1.1 to fix a bug found by Switeck]

Just to check, is this right?

Not sure. I only tested on 1.7.5, and the wiki didn't have the introduction versions for the few JS methods it uses, so it might not actually work that early. I can skip it forward to 1.7.5 if that's not actually true.

Fixed that for you - 1.75.3

I'd think it's not a bad idea to stick with the version you have tested it on.

I can confirm it works on the current nightly, 1.76.0.4675.

Did a misjump and the jump tunnel rolled very nicely! Makes a misjump feel more real!

I like!

Oh, of course. I've fixed and reuploaded.

Like it. And I'm about to release an OXP for testing that's similar . .

So similar that it still says this.author = "cim"; at the top of the script.

Oh dear. Perhaps I'd better (1) change that and (2) beef-up your acknowledgement. I hope that's alright.

Fine with me! You also seem to have copied the this.license from my script (CC-BY-SA 3), and now it doesn't match the license on the license doc (CC-NC-SA 2).

In theory you should match my license; in practice since all you're actually copying from me is a JS template that I copied from the Wiki, and one if() statement to detect misjumps that I can't really claim originality for either, use whatever license you like...

The joy of sharing

I'm having a problem with this OXP -- my ship keeps shaking even minutes after having a misjump.

Are there any errors in Latest.log?
Does jumping (normally) back to real space fix it?
Does it happen on every misjump, or just occasionally?
