Distant Space series of OXPs.

Thargoids! The Musical (Original soundtrack album by Thargoidifier)

It's the space compass, Jim, but not as we know it.

You know it makes sense!

The original and genuine!

Special Equipment (Experimental)

Dynooverse Research really want to know how you feel.

More trustworthy than Westpac.

Album Covers

Check out my growing collection of OXP album covers floating to the right, over there ->
I am unclear what purpose they'll eventually serve. But, I'm pretty sure I'm ahead of the curve with this trend, but everyone else will catch on soon.

A.I. Assistance

My current favourite AI assistants, for use with Oolite, are GLM-4.5 and Qwen3-Coder. Avoid Google's Gemini 2.5, it will just waste your time.

A few comments

Wildeblood has produced some very innovative OXPs: have a good look at the now-broken AI Trading Assistant, and his Alternative Ooniverses OXP, Docked HUDs, Galactic Hyperdrive, MilHUD 4000, WEBS System‎ & Wide-Screen HUD. His work on HUDs seems to have been very influential - many of his ideas were taken up by others, later, and most of the "modern HUDs" include several of his ideas. Cholmondeley 2021

My "How-to" OXPs

A collection of micro-OXPs, each demonstrating a particular Oolite javaScript technique, which might be helpful to others seeking an example to copy.

• How to use the planetary "concealment" property, introduced in Oolite 1.84:

Tachyona is the fastest orbiting world in the co-operative. It orbits so quickly, you can see it move on the long-range chart.

• How to start (And, stop and clean up!) a timer, and how to randomize timer intervals:

File:Noisy Passengers 0.1.oxz

• How to start (And, stop and clean up!) a frame callback while in flight:

Bullet Drive makes the Torus Drive work somewhat more like classic Elite - no manoeuvring during flight

• How to set a station interface on the F4 screen:

Station Self-Destruction Codes self-declared winner of the competition for unbalanced oxp-uber-mega-weapons

• How to change the crosshairs, without changing the whole HUD file:

Crosshairs - Alerting shape of crosshairs depends on alert level (green/yellow/red)

• How to create the data source for a customized HUD dial:

Data - Ship Name displays the name of your ship on your in-flight HUD (needs compatible HUD)

• How to use the player buying equipment to cause an immediate reaction (in this case, changing the HUD) unrelated to the equipment:

Docked HUDs

• How to completely remove a worldScript which has outstayed its welcome:

Untrumbled does not cure existing infestations but prevents future ones

• The proper way to add a new visit recording option to Explorers' Club:

Serial Killer OXP the club will not record your visit to a system until you kill something

My OXPs

In alphabetical order:

• File:Aaaa aaron.oxz. Some dutch guy tilts at windmills. (2024)

• Destination ETA updates the ETA - and adds a spectroscope to analyse Distant Suns
• Distant Locales retitles all F7 screen page headings with region name or co-ordinates (2025).
• Distant Realms incorporates regional titles to the F6 chart (Old Worlds/Xexedi cluster/Pulsar worlds etc)
• Distant Suns moves suns further away from planets (can combine with Sensible Sun below), and changes spectroscopic qualities
• Dockside Services de-nerdifies the F4 screen
• Dynooverse - a dynamic ooniverse where the politics/economy/population of systems changes over time. (2025)

• HUD Vanisher banishes the HUD in external "v"-views: Download v.1.1
• MilHUD 4000 has variable brightness, de-emphasises police vessels and has a sniper-sight attached
• Sensible Sun moves suns further away from planets (can combine with Distant Suns below)
• Serial Killer OXP records systems where you killed something (a modification of the Explorer's Club OXP, 2024)
• Sniper Sight
• Undocumented Launch does this really need explaining?
• WEBS System‎ defense for when your shields are down
• Wide-Screen HUD does this really need explaining?

• World Builder - edit a solar system's F7 description to what you want! (2025)

In this vein

• Template for a Galactic Hyperdrive XG to reach more galaxies (2012). Probably only works with pre-v.1.80 versions of Oolite. You need to know how to manipulate the Galaxy Seeds, and rejig all sorts of gubbins.

Works in Progress (in 2015)

• Alternative Ooniverses
• Save and Jump
• OXP List (Test)

List of OXPs clobbered with System 1.80's changes

See here for list, links, and a little explanation of WEBS, Alternative Ooniverse etc.

Wildeblood

• Exhibits a morbid fascination in the Australian flag
• Wildeblood removed all his OXPs from circulation as he updated them for Oolite v.1.77 (c. 2012). A few were updated and re-released, but not all.
• Wildeblood did not provide licenses for many of his oxp's.
