There is an easy way to stop playing Oolite - go over to the dark-side!

The problem with this is that it's almost impossible to return once you have crossed to the dark side (You being one of the very rare examples EV :lol: ).

Yep - in some ways, writing Oofic is similar to the dark-side - it eats-up playing time (and a lot of other time too).
If I hadn't got enmeshed in writing Oofic (and testing major OXPs), I'd have probably have 100 RoCs on my tally instead of 40!

Ha, yes you can't link to images on your own computer, so photobucket etc is the answer - post it there then put the link to it in the forum post.
Looking forward to seeing you and your cat :)

onno256 - Just a quick tip if you click the Img tab when creating a post and paste your link as shown below your picture will be visible on your forum post :wink:

i.e.

[img]paste_your_link_here[/img]

Easier to use the Image or Thumbnail links from the Photobucket page, and just C&P that into a post (maximum image width for the forum is 1000).

There is indeed ... and it's 25 years since the first Culture novel! I'm waiting, mantis-like, for The Hydrogen Sonata to come out in paperback.
