The Rusty Ass OXP, or fully styled Rusty Ass Corroded Metal Dark Retro OXP, is a ship retexture set expansion package by Murgh, and the dirty sister of Iron Ass OXP, utilising the original Aegidian models. When applied to the game, it adds corroded versions of the core ships in three manners of excessive rust.
Those ships that are inherently available for players may appear on the stations' ships market, but possibly at as low as 60% of the ship's normal cost, and therefore offering the brave commander an opportunity to trade upwards in ship stature, with the small sacrifice of appearing like riffraff. There is also the possibility of somewhat reduced performance and elevated maintenance costs. Nevertheless, probably worth it.
Overview
This OXP painted on top of Iron Ass OXP and therefore also primarily a derivative work of the original datFile models of our preeminent founder Aegidian, dating back to 2004–05, with inspiration and *lore* inserts drawn from the text and images from Holdstock’s Elite Space Trader’s Flight Manual “Observer’s Guide to Ships in Service”, and the retro low poly (RELOPy) OXPs of Smivs.
It is also a bit of a reboot of Young Murgh's M-pack rusties (2004-06) which had precisely the same premise though the technical limitations of its day has also left it unintentionally aged, 18 years on. This update is not premature.
Those open to a more derelict, depleted, destitute and colourfully dystopic Oolite experience may consider running this OXP.
