Redspear's summary of his four Masslock OXP's (from the BB)
Masslock Compensator (2018)
- Speedboost (200%) when masslocked but cancelled by red alert
- No benefit for combat
- Significant reduction of time spent in masslock
Power To Engines (2019)
- Speedboost (150%) when weapons offline
- Useful for escaping faster opponents (if they did same then they wouldn't be able to shoot)
- Helps reduce duration of masslocks
Traffic Redistributer (2017)
- Adjusts traffic to increase frequency of slower traders (and so that the 'best' courier ships aren't also the most common)
- Station bound traffic becomes easier to overtake because it's usually slower
- Pirates, hunters and police are unaffected
Redspear's three older OXPs above are complementary and do not conflict with each other
Masslock Reimagined (2022)
- Masslock lasts for a fixed duration rather than until scanner is clear
- No speed changes to either player or average encountered NPC
- Taking fire negates the effect but possible to dodge your way out of a masslock without being the faster ship
- Likely to make Masslock Compensators obsolete if it develops as I hope
Norby also wrote an older Masslock OXP:
Variable Masslock (2015)
- Reduces Radii of masslocking NPCs by the mass of their ships (copying Classic Elite)
- Non-masslocking ships appear as a darker yellow on the scanner
- Masslock reintroduced to stop one smashing into unpowered asteroids/cargo pods etc.
