X3 AP Deploy Satellite Network

[NewtSoup]

I used to know all this stuff off by heart.

Ok I have a Kestrel for deploying a satellite network

It is equipped with:

Explorer Command
Fight 1
Fight 2
Nav 1
Special Command 1
Triplex Scanner
10 Mosquito Missiles

I've maxed out it's cargo. I stuffed it full of advanced satellites

But it's now sitting in a paranid eq dock with "command: none" and not off to resupply it's own satellites.

Anyone got a clue why? ( does it only resupply iwth standard sats? )

I should mention that there ARE satellites of both types available for sale in the wider universe that I have discovered. I'm currently in the Argon Military Sector and looking at 7 advanced sats and 12 standard ones in the trade list.

I've seen this behavior too. And sometimes they'll just keep going and going. No idea why.

And now it's just run all night and my entire map is dotted with satellites.
