A new release of the 1.62 branch of Oolite for Linux is now available - version 1.62-5. This is a minor bugfix release, and incorporates the following bug fixes since 1.62-4:
- Joystick initialization now sets initial values from the current stick positions to prevent 'zero throttle until waggled' bug on first launch of the day.
- SDL_QUIT event now handled - this means the 'X' icon on the window now works, as does sending Oolite SIGINT
- Commander name overwriting/junkification fixed
The update is available from the usual places - the project page and ftp.alioth.net. Existing players can run 'oolite-update' to get the update. Otherwise, the usual locations:
