Bug of the week

Post by Fritz »

While waiting for docking clearance, I watched a launching Python with a colour scheme I had never seen before. First I suspected the "Griff Cobra MkIII Alt" OXP I had installed a few days ago of containing an alternative Python texture too.

The ship didn't look bad from a distance, but when I came nearer, it became a little strange:

Seen from the other side, the texture had some alignment issues, and the "C" decal seemed out of place...

The "C" was the hint, what had happened: As a little bonus for my "Company Freighters" OXP I had made some textures for cargo pods too, some of them based on ads from the "Station Ads" OXP. One of these was based on the real life TNT company logo:

A bug in my OXP led to the barrel texture being assigned to the "alternative" Python which usually isn't modified by my OXP at all.

Actually I am now planning to include a "C4" Python and/or Anaconda into my OXP. It was hard to imagine how it would look like, but now I know! :lol:
