Latest revision as of 13:11, 22 May 2024

Thargoid is a small green furry creature from Alpha-Centuri (occasionally mistaken for a sick trumble), who in his spare time likes to wrestle balrogs, rescue dragons in distress from fiery damsels and paint dust motes in interesting but luridly invisible colours.

Some of the above may not be 100% accurate (he swears he's blue, not green).


He has also written a few OXPs for Oolite, and currently is taking a break from OXP'ing, much to the surprise of Mrs Thargoid and the little Thargons. But that doesn't seem to stop him writing and issuing them...


A selection of my OXPs can now be downloaded in OXZ format for Oolite 1.79. They are available either via the in-game OXZ manager, or via this wiki page.


Released

All of my OXPs are available from my Box.Net space.


Particularly recommended for new Commanders

  • OXPConfig compatible80px.png
    Welcome Mat - Special software upgrade and optional equipment bolt-on for the ships communications software. By locking onto the system's witchspace beacon, detailed information with regard to it's planetary biography and system safety is downloaded after connection (which can take up to 60s). However if purchased the add-on equipment automatically deals with the connection and transfer, giving instant information. Designed to be compatible and adjustable with OXPConfig.

Download - Welcome Mat v1.13. (Requires minimum Oolite v1.72).


  • Traffic Control - Adds traffic control personnel to each system main station. These welcoming folk guide the inexperienced Commander (or even old hands who've become too reliant on docking computers that they've now lost) in the delicate art of station approach and docking. Always ready with advice and a friendly greeting or parting word, just don't dally and block the approach lane of the station or else you'll feel their wrath!

Download - Traffic Control v1.11. (Requires minimum Oolite v1.72).


  • OXPConfig compatible80px.png
    Lave Academy - Introduces the Lave Academy Orbital Station to the Lave and optionally other systems. Also features three mini-games that test basic flight skills.

Download - Flight Log v1.08. (Requires minimum Oolite 1.79).

As per my retirement post (linked just above), all of my OXPs are currently orphaned. But by that post I have given permission for anyone who wishes to take over and adopt any of them for the purposes of improvement, updating, reworking or anything else that they may wish to do with them. This supercedes the licenses that are currently in the OXPs/OXZs themselves for this purpose. Thargoid 2014
