Oolite Bulletins

Cody, it is important to be clear about this matter. So: which of the following propositions are you asserting? 1) If one sends a PM, then it does get sent to the intended recipient but it remains in one's own outbox until the intended recipient reads it. 2) If one deletes a PM from one's outbox, th...

> Yep! They can of course be deleted from your Outbox.

. . without that preventing their receipt by the intended recipient, I take it. OK. Thanks, Cody.

Hi Cody, and thanks.

That thread you linked introduced me to the Oolite version of 'hooray' ('Ooray!', of course).

I gather from the same thread that, by design - yes? - 'PMs remain in the Outbox until read by the intended recipient.'

I hope I am not, er, scourging Giles's rear.

Hey Commanders



I've had trouble deleting some of my old PMs, and some of my PMs are in the 'outbox' which suggests they have not actually been sent. Also, I've not had a reply from a couple of people - people who have been on the board fairly recently. Can anyone advice? Thanks.

OK, I think I will use the 'shipspawned' event, through a worldscript . That way I can detect ships that have one of the hermit primary roles and then do some randomised increasing of any such ships' maxEnergy . This will beef up both 'un-spiced' hermits and 'spiced' ones. And it should be easy to d...

Oops. Just now I spend an hour or so staring to create a 'HarderHermits' OXP. Once I'd made a first version that I was about to test, I decide - a little late . . - to see whether any other OXP existed already that was similar. And . . there's Sparas' Spicy Hermits , which toughens up hermits, and d...

Well, we gotta have some renegade vipers, surely! Nice: .

Yes, there are those things (quiet, history) too - but that is not the sublime part.

Cholmondely,

I had not thought of cemetries as sublime, but I suppose they are, in that death is vertiginous and, at least in some ways, terrible.

Thanks, dybal. Which OXP(s) do you use that in? (I think I'll keep using 'OXP' to mean expansion pack, i.e. OXP and OXZ - for, I'm used to that term.)

Right. Thanks. Actually, I cannot remember whether I tried out a range of these values before for the Uberbuggly. I seem to remember that with some settings it wobbles around in a very silly fashion. I should have tested the change. I will try to do so within the next few days!

Er, it was 7 and it is now . . 7.2!

Ah yes, I saw that announcement.

But people being unable to administer their OXPs will only hasten the decline of the community.

I'll pm you with a bit more.

A person of culture, I see! (We'll still boom all your bases, though. . . Uh-oh, I'm turning into Mr Thargoid. I've worked with the bugglies too long and gone native.) There might be some substantive but small changes in there. For, there are signs I was tinkering with the OXP (/OXZ), some time ago,...

Right. As your suggestion post notes, under http://www.oolite.org/admin/ each person - and that includes me - can access only their own expansion packs. So I cannot do it. Did you PM one of the 'admirals', asking to be given the requisite credentials? I cannot remember whom exactly you should ask - ...
