Oolite Bulletins

Had two occurrences in the last few days that have never occurred before within my visual range. The first was a Galaxy Liner that had been successfully attacked by Pirates. This happened before my arrival on the scene or there would have been an attempt on my part to prevent it. As it sat there jus...

Thought of this answer when you posted the original question but thought it a bit off as his size can be altered by himself to fit the circumstance. The answer is - Galactus, Devourer of Worlds - from the Marvel Universe of either Comics or Cinematic. Though, in my humble opinion, the comics are muc...

Correct me if wrong but are not normal maps very difficult to make without the original Wings 3d files? Managed to do so once without the original Wings3d files with a conversion program found online but it involved making detailed grayscale height maps which, for that particular project, must have ...

You are right, it should be gloss = 0.75. Some things in my Ooniverse will have to be reviewed and may need to be changed once again. Heavy Sighing can be heard In The Dark.

As long as we are on the subject there is another problem if one is using these older ship OXPs and the latest releases of Oolite. The light attribute shininess is no longer used by the latest releases of Oolite. For my own collection the change has been an ongoing, very slow, process of changing th...

Took a quick look at it and the error is indeed in the fireball_xl5.dat file. The default entries should not be there. Replacing all of the occurrences of default with fireball_xl5_auv.png in the fireball_xl5.dat file should eliminate the error leaving you good to go without the annoying errors. If ...

Mr. Latest Log is generating the following error: [script.javaScript.exception.undeclaredVar]: ***** JavaScript exception (deep_space_pirates 1.7): ReferenceError: assignment to undeclared variable i Deep Space Pirates v1.7 seems to be working as designed so why this error is being generated and wha...

The beep.oog sound used in this OXZ has the same name as one of the default game sounds. The result is that the default beep.oog sound is being overwritten by this one in every instance. The default sounds can be found at Oolite\oolite.app\Resources\Sounds. Several other OXZ's (such as Audible Docki...

ROolling StOones - Sympathy For The Witchspace Devil

With v0.106 getting the following error in Mr. Latest Log every time a ship is attached to the Towbar. [script.javaScript.exception.notDefined]: ***** JavaScript exception (towbar 0.106): ReferenceError: id is not defined Sat around attached to several ships ship for a good 15 minutes each and nothi...

As suggested the two occurrences of currentWeapon in towbar.js (currentWeapon does not appear in any of the other JavaScripts) were changed to current_weapon and the following error still appeared in Mr. Latest Log a few hundred times. [script.javaScript.exception.unexpectedType]: ***** JavaScript e...

The following errors have cropped up in Mr. Latest Log: 04:01:42.243 [script.javaScript.exception.notDefined]: ***** JavaScript exception (towbar 0.105): ReferenceError: currentWeapon is not defined This might be due to my use of New Lasers but not 100% sure. It repeats hundreds of times in the log ...

How about any part of Japan from the Godzillaverse? If you live there you know that it is only a matter of a short time before some giant something or other is going to either stomp or breathe your hometown into nothingness. Why rebuild when you can actively flee to somewhere that is not plagued by ...

My modifications to Towbar are strictly cosmetic. 1) Changed all instances of the name "Towbar" to "Tractor Beam" as the invisible part of the code is used. 2) Changed all instances of consoleMessage to commsMessage. My ship does A LOT of talking as it is easier for me to retain messages if they are...

Towbar gets used sparingly in my Ooniverse and is highly modified to fit my own needs. This requires lots of maintenance whenever a new version is released but that is half the fun of such things. The only question is: will these Towbar Payout OXP's be mandatory or will the stand alone releases stil...
