Did you see the new launching and docking. Upgrade of BGS.oxp?

It raises the fun again with an excellent launch tube
Bit late to this thread - you still not finding enough Thargoids, Styggron? You could pull a deliberate mis-jump - there are always a few hanging around in interstellar space. Strange things can happen in interstellar space - in certain circumstances, universes can collide and you see the strangest things:
Aye ma'am, indeed it would!
Great tool cheers Cody. I have an OXP that does a good job with that too but like you said perfect for planning.
Imagine the size of the MAP ED will have.......
Oh... would that be one of the 'cheat' OXPs that were made as OXP development tools and escaped into the wild?
Are you flying an über-ship? Or maybe you need to re-balance your game - do you have any NPC-toughening OXPs?

No nothing special but it was not an OXP as I thought it was just when I pressed is it "I" or shift-6 in the galactic map that I got the shortest path to get to a point the other thing I was thinking is pressing "I" on the screen short range chart tells you what system is what.
As for my ship...no I don't think it is too uber, it is a large ship though and has military lasers on the front and extra shield generators etc but I can still cop a hiding if there are too many pirates. Of course I do have an energy bomb but I tend not to use it unless I really have to...it was in the original so I opt for them to be in.
I have bought special thargoid tehnology missiles that sometimes help against others.................the balace I think is pretty good. I might have been lucky with my thargoid encounters perhaps.
Yeah... shift+6 in the long-range chart gets you the shortest (least jumps) route, but if you keep the '6' key pressed and hit Ctrl, you'll get the quickest (time-wise) route. The vagaries of hyperspace travel are fascinating.

Further to this, we need testers for a new Windows 64-bit SSE2 version of Oolite v1.77.1. We've never had a Windows 64-bit Oolite build available before.
