OXPs

Be aware that in some cases Redspear placed a major essay in his threads explaining the justification for eg Re-imagining Laser Combat or Redistributing traffic.

Ambience (done with collaborators: Spara etc)

  • Additional Planets SR Base Redspear, Spara, PHKB The in-game mechanism providing the base for the following texture packs.
  • Additional Planets Redux Pack Redspear, Spara and collaborators Textures from the old Redux pack
  • Additional Planets Demux Pack Redspear, Spara and collaborators Textures from the old Demux pack
  • Additional Planets SR Demux Volcanic Pack Redspear, Spara and collaborators More Demux textures.
  • Additional Planets SR Others Gas Giants pack Redspear, Spara and collaborators
  • Additional Planets SR: Alien Worlds Redspear, Spara and collaborators
  • Additional Planets SR: Earthlike Redspear, Spara and collaborators
  • Additional Planets SR: free bitmaps dusty Redspear, Spara and collaborators
  • Additional Planets SR: free bitmaps icy Redspear, Spara and collaborators
  • Additional Planets SR: free bitmaps rocky Redspear, spara and collaborators
  • Additional Planets SR: Ocean Worlds Redspear, Spara and collaborators

Equipment & Weapons

  • Laser Combat Reimagined: pulse laser gets longer range, several new laser types, not all ships can carry all lasers.
  • Missile Combat Reimagined: higher tech, fragile ECMs & 3 types of missile
  • New lasers 21 new lasers: availability depends on which species inhabits the planet!
  • Weapon Laws means that the government system now affects availability (not just the TL)

Mechanics

  • Equipment by Ship Class: Size of ship, tech level and grade all affect equipment performance
  • Escape Pod As Standard
  • Hyperdrives: size, tech level & equipment (eg the EEU) all affect countdown time & maximum distance of witchspace jumps
  • Indestructible Injectors
  • Masslock Compensator: passive (neutral) masslocks are less inhibitory than active (combative) masslocks.
  • Power To Engines: 50% speed boost when weapons are off-line
  • Star Fuel: speed bonus for fuel scooped from larger stars
  • Traffic Redistributer: changing the speeds of different ships helps reduce mass-lock

Ships

  • FdL Lightspeeder: a sleeker, faster, Fer-de-Lance

Experimentation

Redspear has been working with Diziet Sma in trying to rescale the sizes in Oolite to come out with something that is more realistic - but also playable.
