Replace the core Oolite ships with their Frontier First Encounters equivalents. No graphics changes, only the ships' specs. Principal advantage: greater cargo capacities and, with FE Ships Player, the ability to fly the Gecko, Krait, Mamba, Sidewinder, and two Vipers. |

FE Ships transforms the core Oolite ships into their Frontier First Encounters equivalents. The result: Larger hull-capacities and an altered speed-scale across the board.
Here's the breakdown:
SHIP FE Thrust Elite LM Capacity (TC)
------------------------------------------------
Adder 18.1 0.240 15
Anaconda 6.0 0.080 400
Asp 22.2 0.294 75
Boa 8.0 0.106 700
Cobra 1 16.1 0.213 35
Cobra 3 20.1 0.267 55
Constrictor 22.0 0.292 65
Fer-de-Lance 22.5 0.298 10
Gecko 16.0 0.212 9
Krait 20.1 0.267 17
Mamba 20.5 0.272 20
Moray 14.0 0.186 45
Python 10.0 0.133 320
Sidewinder 23.2 0.308 15
Viper 24.2 0.321 25
Viper 2 25.2 0.334 30
FE Ships will, above all, be of benefit to _traders_ and _explorers_, since Frontier and First Encounters increased the cargo capacity of all the original Elite ships.
For example, the Adder FE can boast a base 15 TC cargo hold, expandable to 30 TC with Oolite's cargo-bay extension. You will find this enhancement with FE ships across the board, including the now playable Gecko, Krait, Mamba, Sidewinder and Vipers.
To fly the new lightweight ships, you will need to install FE Ships Player alongside FE Ships.
For the full FE experience, use Normal Start and sell your Cobra III pronto!
At Lave, you will find available the Gecko, Krait, Sidewinder, Adder, and Cobra I. All will have the 'FE' suffix in-game.
Recommended upgrade paths for FE Ships Player:
Hunter: Gecko, Krait, Sidewinder, Mamba, Fer-de-Lance, Viper.
Trader: Gecko, Krait, Adder, Cobra I, Cobra III, Asp Explorer, and onward...
Geckos, Kraits, and Sidewinders have no docking computers, no military upgrades, no extra cargo holds. Their successful operation will prove a challenge. Enjoy!
FE Ships and FE Ships Player are downloadable in OXZ format from the Oolite Wiki as well as through Oolite's in-game Expansion Pack Manager.
Finally, my sincere thanks to all who helped me get this - my first release - into a playable state, especially another_commander, montana05, dybal, and Commander_X.
