Satellites

Overview

This OXP adds satellites to the main planet, plus any secondary planets that may be available through Additional Planets.

Satellite Types

There are 4 different types of satellite that can be added to a system.

Surveillance Satellites

These satellites are designed to map and scan planetary regions, down to a very fine detail level.

COM and COMLR Satellites

These satellites aid and facilitate intra- and inter-planetary communications.

Satellite Telescope

These satellites are designed to scan deep space for anomalies (like Thargoid invasion craft or rogue comets and asteroids).

Version History

1.10

• Fixed small bug that was preventing 2 satellite types from having their beacons hidden on secondary planets.

1.09

• Fixed bugs with Library interface.

1.08

1.05

• Added check if mainplanet is existent, in case of nova system... and corrected versions in scripts.

1.04

• Added AI-code by Dr.Tripsa, that will let spy-sats work as police, and reduced texture size with Optipng thanks to a tip from Shipbuilder. Cleaned up the shipdata.plist, as well.

1.03

• ...and if you change the texture names, you should change the names in the model.dats as well... and I should probably test before I release a "fixed" version. Sorry.

1.02

• --and deleted a paste and copy error...

1.01

• Changed the roles, models , textures etc. to more unique names to avoid compatability issues, thanks again to Eric Walch. Corrected the demoship.plist, so that all 4 satellites can be seen...
