Overview
This oxp adds the equipment: Ore Processor.
Don't accept lousy pay for mined minerals! Cut out the middle men.
This piece of equipment is sold at high tech shipyards and is every miner's dream.
The Ore Processor extracts any valuable material from scooped asteroid splinters.
Minimum requirement Oolite 1.65
Why this equipment
You want to strike it rich and don't like the ore refineries taking all the big profit from your mined ore. With this equipment installed you can process your own ore. And when it contains gold, it is really yours!
Usage
The Ore Processor attaches to the fuel scoop and extracts valuable materials from mined asteroid splinters. Buy a Mining Laser and disintegrate the asteroids in the usual way. Boulders will break up into all kind of splinters. An experienced miner can tell valuable splinters apart from worthless ones just by examining their textures. Scoop up the ones you are interested in, or just scoop the lot if you have cargo capacity to spare.
After scooping up splinters the processor will start automatically when it detects something of value and in a few seconds it will have processed the ore and add whatever it contained to your cargo. During processing it will consume a small amount of energy. Splinters are processed one by one. When scooping up splinters faster than the Ore Processor can process them they are placed in storage and processed in turn. When there is not enough energy for processing, the splinters are put into your hold in unprocessed form.
Availability
This equipment can be purchased in all high-technical systems (12+) for the sum of 3500 Cr.
Download Link
Ore Processor 1.58 Updated version with textured splinters, prepared for the new cargo handling in Oolite 1.74. (Updated 8 Jan 2011).
Ore Processor 1.52 Original version without textured splinters.
Version Notes
- Versions up to 1.52 are written in old scripting system.
- Versions 1.53 and higher are written in java script and need Oolite 1.71+ to make use of all this new stuff. When used with Oolite 1.65, the equipment will still work but than it will use the still present old scripting system of version 1.52 and you won't get the new textures.
- Version 1.54 does not try anymore to add stuff to the cargo bay when the hold was filled during processing.
- Version 1.55/1.56 uses the new cargo handling introduced after Oolite 1.73, but also works on older Oolite versions.
- Version 1.57 fixed a problem with scooping sound sometimes staying on.
- Version 1.58 Added compatibility with Griff Asteroids.
Installing and Playing
To play the OXP, unzip the download file. This will create a folder named "Ore Processor". Open this folder and you will see a folder named "Ore_processor.oxp" and a readme. Move the Ore_processor.oxp folder to AddOns. As with all OXPs, its the folder ending .oxp that you need to put in Oolite's AddOns folder, otherwise Oolite will not read it.
