Now that the wonderful [[D.T.T._Custom_Ship_Designs|DTT Heart of Gold]] has been has been added to the game, would anyone like to try my Improbability Drive OXP? It doesn't - at least reliably - allow travel (it's not an ''Infinite'' Improbability Drive, after all); rather, when activated it makes unpredictable strange things happen.

The download ([https://app.box.com/s/moreq536ht here]) includes a save file - called 'A NJ' - of a ship that has both the Improbability Unit and the tea brewing equipment that you need to activate the unit.

However, you will need
* to have the [[Cup of Tea]] OXP installed (it's that OXP, by Smivs, which grants the necessary tea-brewing ability), and, to use the save file,
* have the [[Fer-de-Lance 3G OXP]] installed (since, as it happens, the ship referenced in the save file is one of those; if you don't use that save file, you'll need to find a TL 13+ station selling the Improbability Unity - and have the Cup of Tea equipment).

== Overview ==

To activate the ''Improbability Unity'', use the shift-N method!

Note that activating the unit depletes two energy banks.

Note also that some of the stuff I have planned for the unit, including changing nearby ships into other ships/things, are not presently implemented. Have a look at the code to see both what is possible at the moment and some of what I have planned. At present, mostly, the Unit does fairly subtle things . .

=== Dependencies ===
Oolite v1.82 or later. No dependencies on other OXPs.

You will need to juggle the version of [[Oolite]] which you are using with the version of [[Tea maker]] to get all this to work!

=== Conflicts ===
Certain OXPs will conflict or interfere with the Improbability Drive. The exact identity of these is of course improbable.

=== Instructions ===
Unzip, and just move the .oxp file into the AddOns folder of your Oolite installation.
