Missionaries.OXP (549kb)

Adds a cleric from one of four faiths to some systems. There's a Happy Eye preacher, a CGC missionary, A Witchspace Lobster worshipper and a Zenarchy monk.

This is my first attempt at making a simple OXP for Oolite.

All models are unmodified from the basic game by Giles Williams.
The textures are based on the basic textures plus the ones from the mPak by Murgh.
The AIs are based on the basic game plus the ones from Boyracers and the Frog Space Rigshaw by Murgh.

And I got a lot of help by searching the Oolite BB and Wiki.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I just thought of the lack of alternative theories of intelligent designers today because of a story in the news on ID. FSM is not the least credible explanation.

Actually the CGC also has ID as part of it's dogma, as anyone who comes across one of it's missionaries soon will discover ;)

Btw: Since CGC stands for The Church of Giles the Creator, one has to admit that they're actually unto something with their claims about an intelligent designer of the Ooniverse :)

Thanks :)

Great that there's so much stuff back on Oosat2 now, that it's actually possible to miss things. http://oosat.alioth.net/?q=node/46 - you might also have passed it thinking it was M-pack since the Witchspace Lobster Worshiper pictured flies a rusty Worm.

Hadn't even noticed that function. Looks like it only works for some words :?

Would there be any interest in updating this?

This is one of the more Lore-ish/cultural oxp's.

We would need new textures, we could add to the communications, and add in to the death cries.

We could add in some new religions (Randomius Factoria for example), could make some missionaries system specific (more CGC in Feudal States for example, or zillions of Zenarchy Monks in the third Galaxy...)

We could add in monasteries or temples (á la Church of the Holy Witchspace Guard or the Black Monks).

Any other ideas?

For it is written that missionaries fly Hognoses!
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

Well, I've started a bit on it in my RELOPy fashion. Looking forward to elaborating with gems from the [EliteWiki] Church of Giles the Creator page. I figure they move about in a blessed barque..
The Happy Eye cult has become the somewhat more ominous All-Seeing Eye cult.

Having always missed a bit of robot presence in Oolite (a timid, frightened bunch so nearly driven to extinction) I've played a little with some worshipping their automaton deity, praying for better days.

Monasteries and temples temples sound cool..
I was young, I was naïve. [EliteWiki] Jonny Cuba made me do it!
