Oolite Bulletins

Hi All,

I can't believe I have found my childhood joy - I played Elite on an Acorn Electron back in the mid eighties and loved it. Even with advancesin games etc I still love it.

So quick questions....

I am currently reaching 100 kills and have a fairly well equipped Cobra.
Just shuttling between tech level 13 planet and tech level 4 anarchy trading and killing any offenders.

But the whole mission thing and expansion pack idea is new to me.

What is the next step, more cash and a new ship, use an expansion pack - which are advised for a newcomer etc.

Any kind of pointers would be great.

Thanks so much

Steve

well, the wiki was made for just this:

http://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/OXP

at OoSat you could start by downloading the Longway mission, because the first native mission doesn't start until you've murdered 256 souls..

could maybe recommend this wiki article too..

char *ptr;
void *ptr;
int **ptr;

Any of those pointers any good?

I wouldn't risk a missile on anything that appears to contain that much methane...

Try Murgh's transports.oxp:

Fly real close to a quirium-tanker and then let loose with your military grade laser.
Nice fireworks.
