I Play Oolite (v1.82)

My ship, the Scarlet Tambourine. Not your ordinary Cobra Mk. III. "I've made a lot of special modifications myself." No, I did not uberfy it. That is not my style. My ship and I are one and we make our living honestly. We are not above ferrying passengers, trading in goods or delivering other beings documents of dubious importance. This allows us to see the ooniverse and gain knowledge and experience imperative to our survival. The only jobs we no longer do is that of being a hired assassin.

Journal:
2086350: Nearly through the galactic core of chart three en-route to the outer rim worlds. Carrying contracts worth over 30k credits. Jumped from Usmaxe to Razari with the plan of making an immediate jump to nearby Maer. Lone Asp Mk 2 at the Razari WP which I suspected to be a lone assassin. Sure enough, he followed me through to Maer where he and a Cobra Mk 1 attacked. My objective with these hired guns is to persuade them that attacking me is not advisable. After they bugged out I went merrily on my way, singing a tune and rapping my tambourine. Next up: the Maer - Xeines choke point.

CaptSolo's Favourite OXP's

Background Set	Audio and video enhance the immersion factor of the game. I even recorded a couple robotized voice overs: "Red Alert!" and "Incoming!"
Camera Drones	Allow for different perspectives on the action by complementing your ship's hull-mounted cameras and sensors.
Comms Pack A	Adds a range of communications messages to NPCs using the new communications routines.
Extra Fuel Tanks	It can get nasty out there and sometimes one needs a topper for the witchspace fuel injectors.
Griff's All-In-One Replacement Shipset	My personal edition for Oolite 1.82+, maintained periodically with newer resources and insured compatibility with core AI's and roles.
Griff's OXP Ships	My personal collection originally from ArcElite, Elite 2, and Elite-A (Bug, Gnat, Griffin Mk I, Hognose, Ophidian, and Wolf Mk II).
Hyperradio	There's nothing like your favourite tunes to while away a boring in-system flight. I even like music during combat.
Navigation MFD	This piece of kit will display additional information on the ASC target. Available from the Expansion Manager.
PAGroove's Stations OXP	My personal edition for Oolite 1.82. Replaces by condition the three main types of GALCOP stations.
Random Ship Names	Gives all ships of normal roles a randomly generated name. Some are plain jane but others are quite descriptive.
ZygoUgo's Combined AddOns	My personal edition combining ZygoUgo's Asteroids and his Cinematic Skies & Nebula OXP's. These are available separately from the BB.
