Oolite Bulletins

I get an error after downloading. The log file says:

21:20:12.457 [gnustep]: 2016-03-09 21:20:12.457 oolite[4516] Attempt to use SSL/TLS without support.
21:20:12.457 [gnustep]: 2016-03-09 21:20:12.457 oolite[4516] Please reconfigure gnustep-base with GNU TLS.
21:20:12.754 [oxz.manager.error]: Downloaded OXZ does not contain a manifest.plist, has been left in C:\Oolite/oolite.app/GNUstep/Library/Caches/org.aegidian.oolite/Oolite-download.oxz

I checked the download links of all oxzs in the Expansion Pack Manager and it seems that Stashes is the only one that has an https:// download address. It is most likely because of this that the download cannot proceed. The current gnustep we use on Windows is not configured for secure connections - not sure what the situation is with the other two ports on this matter.

I would recommend you download this OXZ manually from the Oolite website, OXPs page: http://www.oolite.org/oxps/.

Oh, thank you. I was also curious for this addon and had the problem with the download. I wasn't aware of this way to get it. Worked.

To install manually, save the downloaded package in C:\Oolite\oolite.app\GNUstep\Library\ApplicationSupport\Oolite\ManagedAddOns (assuming you kept the default installation path).

OXZs will work from the AddOns folder too.

What does this actually do? There's no description on the Wiki.

See in the stashes topic.

That sounds interesting - thanks, I'll give it a try.

Think I ran into one of these tonight. Two pirate ships that apparently came from inside two very close asteroids, and one of the asteroids disintegrated into dozens of lumps of alloy when lasered?

This interesting-looning OXP - 'Stashes' - still will not install via the in-game manager. I had to downloaded it manually and put it into my managed AddOns folder. After that - judging by the log - it seemed to operate OK.
