About Capt. Murphy

Capt. Murphy is a relative newcomer to the Ooniverse. He briefly visited back in the 1.65 days, before moving in permanently shortly after 1.75 was released. However he did spend many months/years as a youngster playing Elite on the Acorn Electron (no missions, 1 Galaxy, about 6 different ships) and the Amstrad CPC, and as an adult Elite TNK on his PC.

In between times he has mainly been stranded on Saturn's moon Titan in the game Hardwar where as smurph he helped make some mods for that game.

Capt. Murphy is currently flying a rather battered Cobra Mk III known as 'Murphy's Law' in Galaxy 2 and is rather...well...'Dangerous'. He is a bit of a jack of all trades, but mainly engages in Bounty Hunting, Narcotics Smuggling, Escorting NPC Traders, and buying up and freeing slaves, along with the odd 'milk run'. He is thinking of heading to Zaria to see what's up with the Ionics missions, and wondering what on earth he should do with his 'PAD' that some random NPC flyer gave him.

Capt. Murphy's OXPs

Capt. Murphy can't help but tinker underneath the hood, and often parks his Cobra for days whilst trying to reprogram it's computer. He has as a result produced (with a fair bit of help from more experienced OXP makers) the following OXPs for Oolite, all of which require Oolite 1.75.2 or above. They may work on lower versions, but you will need to edit the requires.plist.

Police_IFF_Scanner_Upgrade is an equipment upgrade that highlights ships with an offender or fugitive status in custom colours on the IFF Scanner.

Escort_Contracts_OXP allows the player to enter into short term contracts as a paid escort to lone-wolf NPC traders.

Illegal_Goods_Tweak_OXP introduces interaction with Galcop customs when docking at a main station with contraband in the hold. Also includes potential reward missions if Slaves are voluntarily handed over (released) to customs.

Breakable_'Standard'_Equipment_OXPs are a series of OXP's that make some of a ships 'standard' equipment such as the HUD/Scanner, Witchspace Drive, Torus Drive and Primary Shield Generators damageable in combat. Damaged equipment has reduced functionality until repaired in the normal way.
