First played Elite on Commodore +4 in 1987. This was the best game in my eyes at that time.

Found Oolite in jan 2013 and enjoy not only the game but OXP programming also as a hobby which can give me the feeling of the freedom. I hope the result will entertain my sons and you also. :)


My OXPs

Equipment

  • Detectors - show your energy on the HUD and more target informations.
  • Telescope - extended targeting and scanning features, auto steering, sniper ring and more.

Misc

  • HudRequests - tech demo to make dynamic HUDs, requests for core improvements and a mini-game to earn highscores.
  • LogEvents - write messages into Logs/Latest.log using all event handlers to help debugging OXPs and review battles.

Ship

  • RocketMiner - can dock without rolling if well centered due to the barrel form (requested by my little son).
