I Play Oolite (v1.82)

Oolite-Screenie.png
I command the Scarlet Tambourine. Not your ordinary Cobra Mk. III; it is, in fact, the XT conversion, which made it a wee bit tougher and faster. 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:
2086430: A very brief stay in chart 6 (Solans), heading for a Rock Hermit in the Soesgera system (image above). From there making for Inesbe, a tech level 12, Rich Industrial world, to have a Galactic Hyperdrive installed. Soesgera is a good example of the beautiful, procedurally generated planets native to the core game. The Rock Hermit is my own creation, but most of it was borrowed from Anarchies OXP where it served as a salvage station. It is one of only a few objects in my ooniverse that was not made by Griff Industries. It rocks!

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-1 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 bundled edition 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 bundled edition combining ZygoUgo's Asteroids and his Cinematic Skies & Nebula OXP's. These are available separately from the BB.
