 :''By in large I am extremely happy with Oolite the way that it is. While I find a number of "faults" in the Vanilla game these are almost all fixed by OXPs. My remaining issues are:''
 * Oolite only offers '''2-dimensional''' F6 charts with exactly '''256''' systems in each (thanks to Pleb for working on this one). Ahruman started fixing the 2D thing [https://github.com/JensAyton/OoliteGalaxyExtruder back in 2011] - [https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=9642 3D galaxy prototype] & [https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?p=191913#p191913 GG Shinobi's collection] of 3D possibilities for an F7F7 screen (2013) And some analysis here: *[https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=17032 3D F6 chart screen?] (2014)
-* '''Maps of the System''': the ability to map the current system one is in usefully and describe where a station or a Rock Hermit is. Or display it on a F7F7 screen. See [https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=12841 Alternative compass implementation] (2012)

 * More '''NPC interaction''' (family, friends, Academy chums, engineers, lovers ''etc''.)
 * More to do '''outside the ship''': [[Life in the Frontier]] starts addressing this, but has a long way to go!
-* More realistic '''dockings'''/launches - including mooring ''outside'' the space stations on pylons (as [[Nuit Space Station OXP|Nuit]] theoretically offers on the lower struts)

-* More '''control buttons''' for OXP equipment. For OXP equipment we just have Tab/0/N & ctrl-N to select the equipment; n & b to activate; and the four "controlled" colons to operate MFDs. Personally speaking, I really need another 2 equipment priming buttons and for Autolock & ILS to be made primable rather than automatic and suicidal.

 * The ability to add a second player helping run one's ship. See the discussion [https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?p=274564#p274564 here] (uses for a second monitor) and [https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?p=275198#p275198 here] (things to do en-route from Witchpoint to Station).
 === Issues for others ===
 [[User:Cody|Cody]]: The day-night terminator line on planets is blocky when clouds are present in the vanilla game. This issue disappears when planet texture oxp's are loaded. This has been true for a decade or so (See [https://bb.oolite.space/viewtopic.php?p=286729#p286729 here]).

 === Ideas ===
 Inspired by PAGroove's Famous Structures OXP concept, I think that it would be an idea to create first wiki categories and eventually meta-OXPs for the Eight galaxies.
