Overview

This OXZ updates two of Aegidian's early OXP ships, the Python Class Cruiser and the Python Eunectes Turbo.

They now have updated high resolution graphics and will look best with shaders enabled although this is not essential. The ship specifications have been carried over from the earlier OXPs, with just a few code updates for current Oolite versions. This expansion is intended for Oolite v1.80 or above.


Features

The Classic Super-Pythons share all the same features as the other expansions in the Classic Ships suite.

Enhanced graphics with improved detailing and normal, emission and specular mapping. The designs and colours are based on Aegidian's original work.

If an NPC is severely damaged in battle and the pilot ejects the ship will progressively become derelict. The ship loses power and the navigation strobes will stop, the lights fade, followed by the engine glow, and finally the derelict is left gently tumbling in space.

Compatibility

Although a part of the Classic Ships suite of expansions this OXP is fully self-contained, and is compatible with and should work well with the default ships and all other shipsets/ship OXPs.
