OXP's

• https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_array_sort.asp is a valuable resource for better knowledge of Javascript.
• https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript is also good

Modern OXPs are written in JavaScript. Specifically oolite.jsVersion 185, an Oolite specific variant of ECMAv5 (2009). It is the same Spidermonkey version (1.8.5 - March 2011) that Firefox 4 shipped with many years ago, but it is a special build for Oolite. This is the version that we have almost always had and it has not changed between versions of the game. It is unlikely to change in the future (due to the immense amount of work involved in tampering with it!).

• Legacy Scripting gives an introduction to javascript's precursor languages (for earlier oxp's)

• Category:OXPDoc: contains relevant documentation for some of the more complex oxp's
• Category:Oolite utilities: links to utilities (including some oxp's)
