About phkb

phkb stands for "play hard, kick butt", to which there is a long and funny story - but not funny enough for this forum. phkb's real name is Nick Rogers, which is what he tends to call himself, rather than an unpronounceable acronym.

Nick first played Elite on the Commodore 64 in the late 80's, rising to the level of Deadly before his C64 was "borrowed" and then never returned. He discovered Oolite at around version 1.70, and has been playing on and off since.

Nick is currently flying a Cobra MkIII around galaxy 5, trying to visit every planet (everyone has to have goals).

Sometime after the release of 1.80 he decided to try his hand at writing his own components and customisations for the game. He now requires a constant supply of dark side cookies to feed his habit.

phkb's OXPs

BroadcastComms MFD provides a way of communicating with other ships during flight.

CommsLogMFD displays all communications received by the player in a scrollable multi-function display.

Email System gives pilots an email interface, and they will start receiving emails from GALCOP and other entities, confirming actions that have taken place.

Laser Mount Switching System (LMSS) enables multiple lasers to be installed at each mount point, and easily switch between them during flight.

phkb is also the maintainer of Flight Log OXP and the Illegal Goods Tweak OXP.
