Overview

Who are the Weeviloids?

From the ReadMe

This OXP is by Aegidian (c.2005) and requires v1.52 or higher of Oolite.

It's an expansion pack designed to demonstrate some of the features of v1.52.

planetinfo.plist contains code for adding ships at a precise location and for an inter-system encounter in the interstellar space between Lave and Tionisla.

shipdata.plist shows how subentities can be made to rotate, fire lasers, and be destroyed individually.

The expansion adds one ship, and it's a nasty one. Triple firing lasers are not your friend.


There are two versions of this expansion, weeviloid2-PC.oxp's Config property lists are in ASCII format.

BB Comments

BB comment: It's more a demoship to show off frangible functionality (2006)

The Weeviloid Hunter is also notable, as the first of its kind and basically a design study for the use of multiple lasers and subentities on ships (Commander McLane, 2008? Great Deletion? - original post missing).
