Economics: New Deal
Ambience: Cloud City
Ambience: Lave OXP
Ambience: Tetiri Planet Ring
Dockables: Gsagostinho's station experiments
Systems: Galactic Navy
Systems: HIMSN

This is a collection of wonderful OXPs which any of which would change the game in a meaningful way.

But, they need TLC from somebody with a mastery of The Dark Side - or else the idea taken and incorporated into something else...

As well as needing the skills to fix one of these, there is also the thorny issue of copyright. Where a good license exists (eg Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 license), there is no issue. But where there is no license (or a poor one), one needs to either rewrite the bally thing from scratch, or write an overwrite OXP.

Activities

Economics

  • New Deal moves away from the bi-polar agricultural⇔industrial model to a more complex four-polar model. Unfinished
  • Real-life economics OXP is broken - it eliminates milk runs as something a true free market would smooth over

Ambience

  • Cloud City OXP is unfinished - cloud cities at Gas Giants
  • Lave OXP needs updating for the newer graphics - student pilots with instructors, restaurant junks, etc.
  • Tetiri Planet Ring needs work - massive planet ring at Tetiri (galaxy 5)

Dockables

  • Gsagostinho's station experiments here. (2017, unfinished).

Equipment

Miscellaneous

  • Scriptable Pause for letting the game run and then pause itself on red-alert (4 oxp's, 1st problematic: 2017, Hoqlinq & Astrobe) Problematic
  • Galactic Misjump OXP - what happens if you misjump between galaxies? By Cim (2012). Needs development

Missions

Systems

These two navies are quite different. The Galactic Navy is strong and powerful, and fills The Eight with its presence. HIMSN is based at Lave and is much less mighty - but is the navy of the vanilla game missions. Some people prefer the one, others the other. It would be super to have both as options!

  • Galactic Navy needs an override OXP updating it (for the post-v.1.77 era) as there is no license. There have been changes in AI and markets
  • HIMSN (Her Imperial Majesty's Space Navy) needs finishing. Currently in alpha stage.
