Description

Once installed this OXP keeps track of unique systems visited and reports on the manifest screen (F5, F5) the total systems visited out of 256 in the current chart and the total systems visited out of 2048 in the whole Ooniverse. It also displays an Explorer ‘rank’. You need to visit all 2048 systems to be ranked an Elite Explorer.

In addition this OXP adds some functionality to the Long Range Chart (F6, F6) in that it can be set to different modes. To access the options go to the Interfaces screen (F4) when docked. The available options are:

1) Default - standard long range chart behaviour.
2) Long range chart shows animation of systems visited to date, in order of first visit.
3) Long range chart marks unvisited systems.

The options screen also allows you to choose when a system is recorded as visited. The options are.

1) Default – when docked at the main station.
2) Immediately on arrival from witch-space.
3) When reaching the planet's surface.

Options are persistent between sessions with the same saved game.

The options screen also gives access to two further sets of mission screens.

1) Displays a list of the system names that have been visited so far in the current Galaxy, followed by a list of the system names that are yet to be visited in the current galaxy.
2) Displays a list of mile-stones that the player has completed, or not completed, so far. Defined mile-stones are:
  • Visited all of the ‘Old Worlds’ in galaxy 1.
  • Visited all of the ‘Famous Planets’ in galaxy 1 (as per OXP of same name).
  • Visited all of the ‘Famous Planets’ in galaxy 2 (as per OXP of same name).
  • Visited the ‘Prodigal Suns’ in galaxy 3.
  • Visited the ‘Lost Worlds’ in galaxy 6.
  • Visited the systems beyond the ‘Great Rift’ in galaxy 7.
  • Visited Oresrati in galaxy 8.
  • Visited all 8 galaxies at least once.

The experimental feature to keep a photographic record of systems visited, only usable with development versions of Oolite 1.77, has been removed from this version of the OXP.

ChangeLog

Version 1.4.1 (21/10/2013) System data screen tweaked, micro-tweak to API functions, last text string moved to missiontext.plist file.

Version 1.4 (9/6/2013) Based on version 1.3.3, updated by Wildeblood. Code updated for Oolite 1.77, station interface added, photographic record feature removed, nearly all text strings moved to missiontext.plist file, new option for recording visit added, API functions added.
