Lestradae: just bumped into you in Bemeara! I'd gone back to Oolite v.1.77 so that I can run Vector and Cataclysm. So I added in some other currently broken oxp's including this one! Despite warning messages from this one in the Latest.Log, it seems to work well enough...
Cool! Keep up the good work of repairing old stuff!
Lestradae - do you want to
add to your persona?
1)
Alnivel has added the ability to restrict your appearances to particular systems or galaxies, or after a particular event
2) You can of course have more than just the one greeting for each of the various occasions (useful when somebody bumps into you more than just the once) - and you can also say something - and then add to it a few seconds later
3) You can even now
script a conversation using Phkb's BroadcastComms MFD (see Murgh's 2022 work on his
Refugee Adders)
4) You can update your old
Behemoth to Spara's newer models with shaders
etc (and if you know how, add in specular & gloss) - and even add your own
decal (sneak a peek at some of the work on HIMSN)
5) And what should happen if somebody docks with you? (See
HIMSN &
Galactic Navy for variants on regular docking)
Fer de Lance with feudal decal
HIMSN Komodo carrier with illuminated decal
Killer Wolf's
Hathor station dock with scrolling text message (the green line at the back)
