Description
Save and Jump is an add-on that changes the way you play Oolite. It gives you the option of saving your current game at the moment you make a witchspace jump between systems, as well as at the usual time when docked at the main station.
During the countdown to a jump, change views to the status (F5) screen, otherwise the jump will proceed normally, with no pause. Once the jump begins, Oolite will pause to allow you to save your game - you should see the current system name on the status screen change from e.g. "Lave" to "Leaving Lave for Zaonce". Simple - no buying special equipment or fiddling with the N-key menu, or other complications.
When loading a saved commander into Oolite, games saved with Save and Jump OXP can be easily distinguished because both the departure and destination system names will be displayed in the location field. When loading such a game, remember to be ready for anything because you will not be docked at a station, but in flight and immediately jumping into a new system.
