Latest revision as of 11:47, 10 March 2021
This is my personal opinion, however, it might be useful for players who have not yet discovered the richness the OXPs bring to the game.
NOTE: With Oolite version 1.80, many of these became available as .OXZ's from the built-in Expansion Manager.
I recommend all new (or returning) players install at least some of the mods in the first section. The other mods are just my personal recommendations.
For the .oxp's/.oxz's which Zireael wrote see here. Zireael is from Poland and allegedly started playing Oolite to teach himself English. There is a rumour that he programmed all his pirates to speak in Received Pronounciation, whilst his police vipers spoke with a cockney accent.
