To perform meaningful "exploration" in Oolite requires two matters.

*Ignorance about what one is exploring!
*Game modifications enhancing the act of exploration!

== Ignorance ==
'''Ignorance''' can be achieved in one of two ways.
:*For those not yet knowledgeable about the vanilla eight galaxies, the relevant information can be hidden using OXP's.
:*For those who have know too much about [[The Eight]], one can play in other galaxies. These will ''not'' share the lore built up around the eight, but they ''will'' be new!

== Game modifications ==
=== OXP's hiding unknown parts of the galaxy ===
*[[Here be Dragons]] hides the unexplored systems on the F6/F7 pages (2012-19)
*[[Zero Map - Explore the galaxy]] hides the unexplored systems on the F6 charts: customisable (2016)
*[[Buyable map]] (2012)

=== OXP's recording explorational exploits ===
*[[Explorers' Club OXP]]

=== New Galaxies to explore ===
*[[SOTL Altmap]] - a new suite of 8 galaxies with political regions, uninhabited systems, new commodities and slightly different equipment. Unfinished but playable.
:This is a scenario oxp which prevents including other oxp's. You might wish to tweak this to allow loading some of these other OXPs as well as, say, [[Market Observer]]. See page for details.
*[[Galaxy Seeds]] - essay on creating new galaxies, link to Pleb's Oolite Galaxy Generator (Windows only)

=== New Explorational Game ===
*[[SOTL Exploration]] - no combat. Different hyperspace jump method. Locate resources for your stranded mother ship!
