Satellite Service
..: Satellite Service :..
This mod adds a new default job option for your pilots to search your universe and install satellites around stations, gates, vaults.
Default setting is to install satellites around stations, but you may add jump gates and vaults as well.
Pilot will check whether there is a player satellite in the 25km/70km range of an object to avoid duplicate installations.
Ship will receive a new module which allows them to manufacture normal/advanced satellites at a fixed 6000/60000 credit cost.
As of 1.04, there is an option now to salvage player satellites in the universe for 4800/48000 credits (80%) each. This can be used to clean up your sectors.
As of 1.09 there is a new feature to lay advanced satellites in hexagon shape (Full sector coverage). Use the slider to define how many rings to build. Your ship will travel along the path, manufacture and drop them at 40km above the horizontal plane. It is clever to resume the process, also is able to fixed destroyed satellites. It will take a few seconds to find the missing slot(s). Attached picture with 3 rings. Zero slider value will disable this feature. For this operation mode we always use advanced satellites as you would need lot more (laaag) from normal satellites.
Pilots will directly access and use player account to avoid micromanaging their work.
Blacklist will use civilian sector activity configuration.
You may uninstall this mod anytime, it won’t mess up your save files.
Enjoy.
Version 6.x compatible.
