Oolite Bulletins

Thanks for the heads up. I’m not able to debug this at the moment, and won’t be in a position to do it for a couple of weeks. So if you could keep a copy of the log and the save game so I can get a copy later that would be awesome.
Thanks again!

Thanks for the report. To make a full log accessible would normally require using a 3rd party hosting site, but in this case I can already see the important parts of the log. There was no clear reason why the ship failed to spawn, but my initial thought was some sort of OXP conflict. Unfortunately I...

I’m going on a family holiday and won’t have access to do debugging until the end of the month. I will look at this more closely then.

OK, PR merged. New nightly will be out shortly.

Just got word that Terrastorage is going down - most likely permanently - in the next few days

Ah, that's going to be a problem. Is there an easy "just-repoint-the-script-to-new-site" solution?

Trunk has the final check ins. A Pull Request happens before the final check in, allowing changes to be checked and validated first. This PR is probably ok to check in, given no logic or code is changing, but still. Alternatively, I could check it in, allow the nightly to create a new distribution, ...

Before I attempt to merge this PR, it would be great to hear from a couple of users who might be in a position to test it out, you know, kick the tires, that sort of thing. Theoretically there should be no gameplay or visual issues, as I've made the addition a simple drop-in replacement of the origi...

Can you post the edited shipyard.plist file from the Morrigan OXP, and we can check to ensure everything is correct.
Also, can you check your latest.log file and look for any errors? Or you could post it as well and we can have a look.

With thanks to Cmd. Cheyd for releasing his buoy model under the same licence as the rest of the Oolite textures, I have just created a PR in the main code branch which adds this into core. Notes on differences between implementation and original: 1. I resized all textures to 1024x1024 to match othe...

How do I do that? This is the part where I make a suggestion, while looking at the back-stage area for someone more knowledgeable to come forward and offer a more definitive reply. Is just changing the license statement/declaration in the script good enough? It would certainly be good enough from m...

Welcome back, Okti!

I need to to catch up what is the version now and what is changed

Quite a bit has changed, so enjoy the process of re-familiarisation!

I definitely want to see this happen! Let's do it! From my reply in another thread: I think the only thing, licence-wise, is for the buoy to be released under a standard Commons Creative Attribution-Non Commercial-Share Alike License version 3.0, which is what the rest of the models and textures are...

I created a new commodity

Just a quick check: you need to put your commodity definition inside another set of braces, like this: You might be doing this already, and just copied the definition code, but it's worth checking.

I think this might be a Mac-specific issue, as I've never seen that sort of message on any instance of a Windows release. The Mac build has some integration with iTunes for using song-lists in some parts of gameplay (eg docking). AFAIK, this is the only Mac-only component in the source, and to my mi...

Also, there was talk of replacing the native nav buoy with mine (if I changed the license). I'm still open to that and am willing to turn nav bouy over to whatever license is required if there's interest from the core devs. The fad of folks gumballing other dev's work seems to have died away, so I'...

Does Aldiss's Greybeard count? I'll allow that one. It was triggered by a bomb, but not during a war. So that's two. The Wind from Nowhere That's three. World War Z Triggered by a virus, so that's in. Four. The Whilte Plague by Frank Herbert? I'm not sure this one counts, as the virus only hits 3 c...
