Oolite Bulletins

Don't know about "non colour adjusted" but NASA call this a raw image:



I presume some post-processing has gone on, but I ain't an expert.

Awesome!

Lestradae's meta-oxp was a bit like Marmite, and caused some friction.
Personally, I prefer (crunchy) peanut butter on my toast.

Excellent! [twangin' guitars] That's torus drives, energy units, and blowing plasma sorted. What's next?

I like that!

… a small tokamak fusion reactor...

Which is toroidal, of course.

The Perpetual Motion Machine takes in stuff from space (Dark Matter, Hydrogen, anything else you might prefer).

To quote Giles: phlogiston!

...can you even have the extra energy unit while also having a naval energy unit?.

I've always thought that the NEU replaces the EEU. Any boffins about?

We DO NOT disembark our Ship when we are working on the Rock Hermit facilities. I tend to conduct my business with rock hermits in their inner sanctum, usually in a comfy chair with a glass of whichever liquor I happen to be selling. Aside from being an interstellar courier, my mission in life is t...

Is this quote correct... Yeah, pretty much. The stock Cobra MKIII has four energy banks (mine has five), and the better the energy unit, the faster your energy banks will recharge. The EEU doesn't replace energy banks. Your current understanding is correct. Now I need coffee! <worships at the shrin...

Welcome aboard, Commander! I'm a Win7 holdout, so I can't help - but Oolite should work on WX.
You could try disabling your AV, perhaps - but hopefully someone who knows will be along soon.

<grins> And on a small planet such as Ereddive, the surface gravity would be what - 0.2 standard? Something like that?









I blame lockdown!

Thanks again, amigo!

Top five systems sorted from longest planet_distance:
Aatenbe (1 63)
Onenceve (4 121)
Arazaes (0 92)
Aesarge (6 138)
Ontilain (6 36)

All of which are large planets. Is the largest planet in the Eight among them? Aatenbe, perhaps?

Another question: I know which system has the second-longest WP/station run (Ontilain), but which system has the longest?

Three klicks, eh? It was close. Thanks, stranger!
