Sounds nice!
Would you like to fill in a manifest.plist file?

Then we could add it to the expansions manager. But much more important: In the manifest.plist file there is a field for you to declare the license.
Without one, or with the wrong one others would not even be allowed to download your stuff, not to speak about using it.

~ as per other threads/comments/whatever, all my stuff is freely available for people to do what they want w/; my only stipulation was, be respectful.

Thank you for the kind comments

As mentioned i'm happy for people to tinker - if someone wants to take out my Cebior-specific script and make so the station appears in, say, high tech places, that's cool ~ it's always possible that given II is a massive global power, stations would spring up in several places.

to the updates, i'm easy. i think the category could be left as a kinda "index", and the II page left too w/ the nex oxp added under "stations". i'll try and write up a bit lore to pad things out, when i get a spare few minutes. you're better at this sort of thing so, so i'm happy to trust your judgement.

cheers

i was wondering about trying to get the station to only sell II ships, but as per other posts i found too much of my limited spare time getting eaten up by fighting w/ the scripts and stuff. it was also supposed to have a little more eye candy in that i wanted random ships on the landing pads/service bays, but after the existing scripts ran my patience out i didn't want to even think about trying to add that

Now I am wondering whether we should move this forward together? It is a great start and it seems ideas are around...

Sorry to bug you

1) Are any of your OXPs not tied in with Isis Interstellar? (Steampunk HUD? Wasps? etc)

2) And is there anything we could do with the wiki which might make wrestling with Javascript any easier? I know just enough to hunt down examples and add them in here and there. And I managed to bamboozle Massively Locked into writing an introduction to it. But is there anything else which could help?

probably just some of the HUDs. the Wasps were an in-joke, II had a project to create a Witchspace Autonomous Security Probe to watch out for Thargoids and thought it would be funny to base them on actual wasps, but the AI developed a bit of unexpected waspy sentience. II to this day pretend they had nothing to do w/ them.

i think having the page as a general II info, then a link to a ship page and a station page might be enough, if that's easily doable? otherwise just have it all on one page and maybe just a jump-to link somewhere?

from my questions elsewhere, it sounded easy enough - copy some ship models and give then a unique name/role, and place them around as sub-ents, then remove random ones. not sure if you could get random different ships on a particular landing pad or such like, i think it would always be, eg a Cobra for pad 2, and it would either be there or not depending on randomicityness.
