Oolite Bulletins

If someone wants to experiment to see if RWD still is useful : in Scripts/Reduce_Weapon_Damage.js , look for for lines 11 - 13 // using separate values for player / npc for flexibility . this._rwd_player_reduction = 8; this._rwd_npc_reduction = 8; just lower the values until you find one that does w...

good catch, redspear. Astrobe : you are trying to change script.js from "Additional Planets SR Base" oxp ? Look for these lines ( linenumber 117 & 118) : //inner functions need this var max_moon = this.max_moons; add a line there like this : var orbit_mul = this.orbit_mul; In the addMoons( ) part us...

I'm working on OXPConfigV3 again and making progress. Below you see a final draft for the methods and oxp_data object. The .hide property is gone,as the new method allows defining multiple setups for one oxp and/or changing oxp_data at runtime. Currently OXPConfigV3 has 6 js-files : OxpConfigv3.js O...

Intriguing introduction.

i think you left out a word in this sentence :

Naturally, this investigation examines these ‘twilight years’ in detail, as they do signify a major in the collapse of GalCop.

After looking thoroughly into RB code I decided a redesign of RB is needed to get rid of the timers . The new design is almost completely event-driven and will allow the different rechargetypes mentioned earlier . For now it will continue to use the "RB controller first,random selected device otherw...

ShieldCycler next 1.12.2 released, small bugfixes

I'm not sure who is currently overseeing that OXZ That would be me. I have noticed that sometimes the bots get stuck. This seems to happen most often when bots are repairing something, and new items get damaged. (docking while a repair is active can have the same effect). The state of the repair qu...

In your equipment.plist there's requires_equipment = "EQ_EXTRA_ENERGY_UNIT"; but should be requires_equipment = "EQ_ENERGY_UNIT"; Good catch, will be changed in next version. But for a ship with only EEU and cobra 3 energy recharge (7.2) it's not really worth it it seems as there's often not enough...

ocz, have you looked at JSON ?

Using it you can store complete objects in a missionvariable(and retrieve them).

- after the convoy ships have been destroyed, try to pick up as many of the containers as you can. - I'm 99% sure Opponents are placed on the witchpoint - station route and between the convoy and the station. If you head that way as fast as possible (easier with extra fueltanks / fast ships ), you m...

Thanks for the report,phkb.

Personal issues keep me from doing much oxp'ing for the time being, but i'll make sure to put some time aside to upload corrected versions.

I think that there's another OXP that uses this capability for courier contracts - can't remember the name -

That would be Feudal States, you have to land on the planet to get missions.
Those missions are accessible from F8 screen, so for Feudal States planetfall markets are unimportant.

just run lscpu from command line.

The Vortex has functionality to never need maintenance overhauls as a self-repairing ship, but the Caduceus needs them. That strikes me as a bug as it's described as a self-repairing bio ship. Vortex repair system is very similar to the one used on the Caduceus (and Repair Bots oxp) . Those repair ...

can't give examples, but a few years ago the compnay i worked for got several new models of "multimedia laptops" . They did have physical keys at the locations function keys are supposed to be. Default they were assigned to multimedia functions, and the only way to use them as F1 - F12 was to disabl...
