This is a third-party opportunity. (Translation: we’re not gonna do it.)

You can cheat and write OXPs quite effectively with a text editor. Specialized tools are a third-party opportunity. :-)

Just to be clear, I have nothing against an Oolite-like Frontier or FFE game, or for that matter an OXP or saved game editor. But I’m not doing it.
