One suggestion: You could probably easily modify this script to create a new command that drops several laser turrets near jumpgates automatically. Assuming Ego fixes it so turrets stay put when placed

Heh, Gazz I wouldn't expect him to return to X-series to mod for a loooooong while since he's employed by The Fun Pimps for 7 Days to DIe.morbideth wrote: ↑Wed, 19.

Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.32
Sorry I could not get it to run.
I put this mod like every other mod into gamsfolder/extensions .
There it has its own folder sectorsatellites and inside are content.xml, ext_01.cat and ext_01.dat.
After your answer I moved ext_01.cat and ext_01.dat directly into gamsfolder/extensions and left content.xml in gamsfolder/extensions/sectorsatellites .
Is this correct ?
In the game I don't get the behavior.
Do you check conditions on the ship that are not met ? Of course I bought some sats before
And the ship was of type S.
And I use the German verision, there was no readtext error.
Thanks for help !

Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.32
v0.33 Another minor update
There are no requirements for the order.
- Fixed error spam in the search for new sector/collaboration code.
That is all you need to do. But the folder is SatNetwork NOT sectorsatellites, that's a different mod.

Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.33
Oh I'm really sorry. I downloaded both and mistook the foldername in my extractet folder.
Shame on me ...
Thank you for the answer!

Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.33
good evening would it be possible to have the uncompressed mod because I can not put it in french, the command is replaced by readtext-1042-303

Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.33
Make sure you install it in your game directory\extensions and you should not have that problem, it has the language files for all of the languages (at least I think it is all of them). If you still want, you can uncat it with https://www.egosoft.com/download/x_rebi ... wnload=589o-papaya-o wrote: ↑Thu, 20.

Thank you, yes, I saw that the mod had the files, but not translated, and the message in the logbook, here it is 100% French, I like your mod, really, very good job, I continue to to follow its development.

Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.33
So does this have issues in later game, or is it just mine? I have a few mods installed and this mod just flat out died. It laid satellites for like 70% of the galaxy, and I'm using the Sector Satellites mod, with Advanced Satellite Range submod. After this point, i had to keep fiddling for extended periods to get it to run, to the point it took 20 minutes to even start laying satellites in 1 sector, which only lasted 3 runs, then died completely. I had to manually lay the last 7 sectors of satellites because this mod literally wouldn't work at all. I played with the settings in SETA for 15 minutes and the ship assigned never moved again unless I told it to, which led me to doing the rest manually.
It was so bad that I had the ship is Pious Mists (which it wouldn't lay satellites for), told it to explore The Void, which it docked at a station for no reason and then docked at the Antigone Memorial Equipment Dock, flew back to Pious Mists, then back to The Void, laid satellites in The Void and stopped again. I managed to keep it going for 2 more sectors after this point by sending the ship to a sector and laying a satellite, then it would run, but then even that stopped working, which led me to manually completing the process.
Is this incompatible with other satellite modes, which broke my scenario? Or is it a long term issue?

Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.33
In my game I managed to cover 90+% of the stations on the map with just 2 ships, so it does work. Calculations take longer the fewer stations need sats, as it keeps looking until it find one. It also waits 5-10 mins after finishing a search. And finally, all waits are in real time SETA has no effect on how fast it performs the calculations nor how long it waits afterwards.ranykt wrote: ↑Sun, 23.

As far as compatibility goes, I don't use sector satellites in my game but, as I understand it, it does some kind of fake reveal of the stations? The game may not consider the stations it reveals as known to the player. Or it could be that you are just not leaving the ships alone long enough to finish their calculations.

Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.33
Hows performance handling? especially with the map open as we all know the games FPS tanks to horrible with the map open.
Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.33
Well, I left my game running in the background while I watched an episode of Legends of Tomorrow. This ship never moved in that entire time. When i was able to move it, such as increasing the range, it started moving 3 seconds after i changed it, which is the example I gave in the original post. For the most part, it was usually under 1 minute for it start. The process was to tell it to fly to a sector, and it just sat there. I deployed a satellite, it still sat there. I then set it to Hold Position then switched it right back to Deploy Satellites and it took off in 3 seconds.morbideth wrote: ↑Sun, 23.

Regardless, you were able to get to near completion, which means that it is likely one of my other mods. This is a brand new game with 1.5, so there was nothing that should've interfered other than the mods.
Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.33
You can run the game with -scriptlogfiles, and it will output the file sattest.txt to My Documents\Egosoft\X4\<some number>\logs, that will tell you exactly what it is doing.ranykt wrote: ↑Sun, 23.

Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.33
Heya, gonna fire up your mod next week once i finally have some time to actually play the game again.
Also stumbled over your lua discoveries, thanks for doing this. I'm hoping egosoft will lend us a hand here once they've fixed the games immediate problems so we won't have to default to nasty interface injections.
Also noticed this part:

Also noticed this part:
Just to give some clarity about this, Sector Satellites doesn't do any "fake reveal", some sats spawn a type of satellite at stations in the current sector that stay there for about 1-2 minutes, until the stations are discovered. No fake reveals, no usage of <set_known/> of any kind. However i'm currently making the whole thing configurable, so if this is a dealbreaker for your mod in case you are checking for undiscovered stations instead of stations that don't have a sat nearby, then users can disable sats from detecting stations soon.morbideth wrote: ↑Sun, 23.

Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.33
Are you using sats with modded range? The range is hardcoded to the vanilla values. If you've not modded the sats, then you just got a bad roll. Probably something like the sat in the lower right wasn't a guess value for fewer sats so the check failed. You can use my collect deployables mod to pick up the sat and try again.kohonac wrote: ↑Sun, 23. Dec 18, 12:46so im just curious if this looks right. seems like a lot of overlap to me

Re: [MOD] Satellite Network v0.33
nope no modded sat ranges and yeah i saw your collector script and have it. guess this is a good reason to try it now . just wanted to make sure i wasnt missing something and they were supposed to be like that. ty again for the great mods
