Oolite Bulletins

Aleusqu take #2 : *argh* Now, I know who/what the Black Monks are. Never tried them before. Savefile deleted too and Black Monks uninstalled. *grumf!* :lol: With the Monks you must take a pilgrimage to purify yourself from taking a loan. Not very suitable for monetizing mining industry. Unless you ...

"Why was it abandoned in the first place?"

Nah. No need to over explain these matters. Leave it to the imagination of the player.

Looks amazing!

Ok. Checked my catalog. Gas giants are not there. I only have the base package and demux + redux. That means the gas giant oxps are in Redspear's catalog.

Gas giants is very probably in my repertoire. I'll check it when I get back to my computer. Thanks for notifying.

Flying veggie?

Somebody *please* tell me how to find a Black Box - I've been flying around a system for about 6 hours trying to find one ... I've installed the "hot and cold" OXP, which seems to work, but there's nothing shows up in the scanner. It's driving me mad! :shock: :oops: :? I must confess. Without the C...

@starting with the Adder I've restarted with the Adder and to be honest I'm not finding it difficult at all. I just corkscrew to avoid pirate fire, make sure I buy things at a good price and sell at a good price. The big problem is its a long haul to be able to afford a new ship and without cargo e...

One of my favorite topics over the years is brainstorming how the game would need to be changed for the Adder start to be the default start. Try starting the game in Adder. Even with the cargo expansion hack from the Start Choices OXP, you'll notice that it's a huge effort to cumulate enough capital...

I (still) firmly believe that modding is the key to keeping this game alive. On top of constantly developing the core game of course. <grins> Don't forget the players! You can mod and dev all you want, but without us dumb pilots... quo vadis? I stand corrected, sir. :D The correct mixture is devvin...

How does the time fly :D. The previous update was from 2015! A new version which incorporates phkb:s fix is now uploaded. Thanks a lot phkb for taking care of yet another of my old oxps. And to anyone who hesitates to update or fix or modify or alter or change or whatever with my oxps, please don't....

OK, so it's effectively a way to cram more fuel into the tank. Oh ye who lack in thee faith! It might _look_ like that if you blasphemously peek at the sacred code, but be aware that Holy Fuel (tm) is in fact produced by sacred blessings in the vast halls of Black Monk Monasteries with rites unfit ...

Just a quick comment here. If someone takes this further, it should probably work so that some sort of transaction key needs to be pressed for things to actually happen. You would kind of create a list of actions and then execute it.

coriolis: 25000 What? Corolis stations can be destroyed , without special OXP funny business? I think variable strength for rock hermits would add some fun and realism. How about the following? Non-pirate hermits: energy between 1500 and 2000, with a chance of shields - via the NPC Shields OXP - of...

Good points on the default max_energy of hermits. For reference: boa2: 525 hermit: 1000 coriolis: 25000 So beefing up the hermits sounds like a reasonable idea for this oxp. Kind of like simulating shields. Don't know about the variable strength though. Sounds nice on paper, but is kind of hard to n...
