Oolite Bulletins

Welcome to the friendliest board this side of Riedquat, LOCI. I hope that you enjoy your stay with us.

Also, if you feel a need for speed, get Witchfuel Injectors. They'll make transit times a lot shorter, until you run out of fuel, anyway.

Hmm....try reinstalling Galactic Navy and see if that fixes the problem. If it doesn't, post the latest.log file.

Yodeebe: I've found the source of your problem. It's a bug in how the mission clean-up code is written. I've fixed it for the next version.

That's odd. Do you mind posting your Latest.log?

EDIT: Give Eric's suggestion a go, and let us know how that turns out.

Understood.

So, I'll just have to take some time to update the keys for the choices to reflect this.

Thank you.

Given that the missions choices in the missiontext.plist for Galactic Navy are sorted in the order they should appear on the screen, this seems to have been introduced some time between 1.72 and 1.74.

Of course, I could be misremembering things and they were sorted that way back then, too.

It seems to me that it was intentional, given that I read it as an abbreviation with the first two letters standing for "Docking Computers".

Can't remember what I thought the other two letters stood for, though.

It seems that in 1.74, choices on the mission screen are now ordered alphabetically based on the key in missiontext.plist rather than how they're ordered in the .plist.

This is rather odd, and quite unexpected. Are there any other OXPs affected by this?

After you destroy three Thargoid ships, you should get a message from the Navy thanking you for your help. Did you ever see this?

Also, I'm going through 5.2.3, fixing bugs and making some minor changes. Once I'm done with that, I'll release a new version of Galactic Navy.

Nice work, ClymAngus. I'm sure that people will find all of these maps to be very helpful.

Well, the latter sounds adjectival, so I'd go with that.

As far as my suggested change to the G6 route goes, it would be nice to get a cost/benefit analysis of the relative merits of the two routes.

OK adding these extra bits, as for a name I've decided upon something in honor of all the effort that Mr N has put into the routes; Spaceway 8-L1 (The Nemoricus Arc) Oh, thank you. Truth be told, it's not very hard to find these routes. I just look for long chains of green and grey, trying to keep ...

Further investigation reveals that it can also be extended. From the north-eastern terminus: Vemaed-Isaso-Orlatein-Dieranor-Arlale-Ereson-Onusra-Zaatquat-Ceenti-Quedbiqu-Querbeis-Leesusen-Edsoan-Endiqu-Tiatza-Bigexein-Orbira-Maenes You could create a loop here by going to Reusleed, but I don't want ...

It's one thing to know intellectually that that route meanders across the entire map. It's another to actually see it. Wow.

A G8 route for you. Starting in the south west corner of the map: Onatce-Ererso-Biatzate-Leater-Usmaedin-Zaonrixe-Diesdi-Qurixean-Soladiar-Xeoresce-Usreinxe-Maabile-Labirior-Biorle-Esusge-Titiridi-Esinen-Enbeza-Didilaer-Xebeis-Atmabe-Inorle-Laedat-Tetige-Ceraerar-Esusale-Reusleed-Anrasoti-Orqure-Orl...

A potential route in the isolated region: Xeonar-Esarxeve-Ribiraor-Gelesoma-Esaqube-Israa-Ataer-Sobeteve A branch off of your white route near the northwest corner: Maarbi-Sorezaan-Veis-Zalaxe-Leisinma-Xeorusge-Sobeer-Isisan A route going through the GalCenter: Cerianon-Eded-Isbianri-Gegeso-Ateslete...
