Remove Equipment

[ralph_hh]

Hi there.
I've tried an OXP which did nothing, so I removed it again. However, I bought some equipment of this oxp. Having removed the oxp, the equip stays with my ship... How do I remove this? The equipment list does not allow to sell anything. The sell-equipment oxp offers to sell this thing, but this does not work either.

Which OXP are we talking about here? It would be helpful to know.

There must be some lingering file that has the equipment. Do you have both the oxp and the oxz installed? As when you normally remove the oxp that grants the equipment then it also disappears from your ship as well as Oolite has no reference to it. Also could you state what the piece of equipment is so we can track down the issue. Ta.

Misteriously, it disappeared after a while.
The OXP was something like Cargo Extension, a feature that allows you to compress the cargo to a kind of secret strorage and add some more to the normal 35t room. Well, problem solved...
I sold it about 10 times without success, the next time I had a look, it was gone... Funny thing.

Ahh.. Hypercargo..

I guess sometimes hyperspace bubbles do strange things..

Hypercargo is not designed to be removable equipment, so if another OXP is giving that functionality then it is breaking it and is in the wrong.

Removing the OXP/OXZ is the only way to deinstall it, at which point the whole lot should go as has already been mentioned as the driving scripting is also removed. If something is remaining then there's either a caching issue (cache not being refreshed when it should be) or something else either with the removal process itself or deeper within the trunk code.
