Someone on the Twitternets concluded my asking for WebGL testers meant an upcoming Oolite web port. Maybe for 3.0… :-p

yeah well as depeche mode once said: Well don't just stand there and shout it, do something about it. If half these people were as good at doing (me included) as they are at running with a misconception. We'd have this on a tablet by now.

It's the trading engine of the original game - so no 3D graphics, just the buying/selling, moving between systems...

Have you considered just doing the obvious? Clicking on the link, and playing a little with it by just following the instructions which are printed on the very first screen you get?Zireael wrote:And no fights?DaddyHoggy wrote:It's the trading engine of the original game - so no 3D graphics, just the buying/selling, moving between systems...
If I may quote them for your convenience:
You may note that there are commands for buying and selling, but not for launching, docking, flying, or fighting. This should indicate that the game consists of buying and selling, not of launching, docking, flying, or fighting.Welcome to Text Elite 1.4.
Commands are:
Buy tradegood ammount
Sell tradegood ammount
Fuel ammount (buy ammount LY of fuel)
Jump planetname (limited by fuel)
Sneak planetname (any distance - no fuel cost)
Galhyp (jumps to next galaxy)
Info planetname (prints info on system
Mkt (shows market prices)
Local (lists systems within 7 light years)
Cash number (alters cash - cheating!)
Hold number (change cargo bay)
Quit or ^C (exit)
Help (display this text)
Rand (toggle RNG)
Abbreviations allowed eg. b fo 5 = Buy Food 5, m= Mkt
