Rather more excitement in interstellar space!
Contents
Overview
This OXP makes much more of interstellar space/witch space, providing a wide range of encounters/adventures.
It provides a chance that your escape pod will be rescued in interstellar space/witch space.
Note that it also provides an update for the unlicensed OXP Fuel Collector as well as vigorously expanding the Missionaries OXP, but does not require either in order to run.
Requirements
- This expansion pack requires Oolite version *1.82* or above.
- Various expansion packs are recommended (but not necessary) to complement this one. See the 'General notes' section below.
General Notes
- This expansion pack makes misjumps a little more likely and, fairly often, modifies what happens when one misjumps. One can encounter only the navy, or only thargoids, or empty witchspace or ... various other things. The expansion pack also gives you a chance of having your escape pod rescued in interstellar space by any nearby behemoths or leviathans (presuming you have such ships installed). That chance increases if you have bought the 'electronic thumb' equipment.
Interstellar Tweaks expansion pack by Uk Eliter
- This expansion pack makes various uses of numerous other expansion packs, when they are installed. Most of those expansion packs are listed below. The ones marked '*' are especially recommended for use with Interstellar Tweaks.
- Armoury
- Behemoth
- Breakable WitchDrive
- BGS
- Escape Pod Locator OXP
- Extra Thargoids
- Fer-de-Lance 3G OXP
- Fuel Collector OXP
- Galactic Navy
- Generation Ships OXP (note: this OXP - for one thing - make generation ships rarer);
- Griff's shipset expansion packs (for, especially, nice looking thargoids!);
- *Interstellar help OXP* with its Electronic Thumb
- Military Fiasco
- Misjump Analyser
- Missionaries OXP
- *mPakRedux (a.k.a. 'Rusties');* - see Second-hand ships for download details
- Staer9 Spectre
- To Catch a Thargoid
- Thargoid Carrier (this will considerably increase the thargoid threat - though it can be offset somewhat via my Fer-de-Lance 3G expansion pack);
- Thargorn Threat
- Wormhole restoration OXP
- Interstellar Tweaks is compatible with Thargoid Witchspace Drive. Moreover, Interstellar Tweaks seems to work with the Wormhole drones expansion pack (that latter being, at the time of writing, a work-in-progress). Interstellar Tweaks should be compatible with cim's Galactic Misjump OXP, too.
