Anyone that has his most recent OXPs, if you'd like to share them someplace, feel free. If you are worried about licensing, I can forward you a PM from him stating that "[you] can do anything [you] want with it." His made some cool OXPs, shame for the community to be deprived of them.

If you have no way of hosting it, or need space, I can make some available on DHI.com.
I have Destination ETA and Distant Suns (1-8) (some of the coolest equipment/ambiance OXPs ever).

Sorry for the dumb question, is it sufficient to move the "Distant Suns 0.5.1.oxp" folder into my add-ons folder, or do i have to put each subfolder "Distant Suns of Chart 1 version 0.7.oxp", chart 2, chart 3 etc. into my add-ons folder?

Only if you find it more convenient. It should work as well either way.

Wow this OXP is wonderful in combination with the new suns in 1.79. Tested it on PC and went on sun skimming in an M-class star. Skimming sure is a beautiful experience in 1.79. Now next on the wish list is suns dat do different things to your ship when skimming. And flares and plasma loops. 8) No just kidding (although it would be great). I'm quite content now!

TO-DO:

There is a known issue with the Naval Hyperdrive Programmer: a galactic jump to Quzaarar (SecCom 2) on Chart 4 actually arrives at Riusbequ. (Those two planets are so close to each other they have the same galactic co-ordinates.)

Minor bug report, for a very rare edge case: In G5, if you're in either Divees or Tezabi, and your target system is the other system (Divees or Tezabi), the Hyperdrive status will always say "No target system set".

I think both these systems have the same co-ordinates which is probably causing the confusion. Actually, it is rather confusing to have two systems with the same co-ordinates. Is there some hand-wavium that explains this?

It's no mystery - the two planets orbit the same star. There are a few other such pairs.
