yeah thats correct, it only uses advanced satallites, so it wont give u that choise.

but like i said, you have to do it per sector, so if u sign up for one it will only replace satallites in that sector and not create others in different sectors

Ah, bugger, i do apologize Cycrow :\ I wasted your time.

I just found the BBS entry immediately after i installed your script and therefore was convinced it was yours. as well as the fact i don't have any others S:

Does the game have one standard/official for deploying sats?

hmm, if it was signed i would hope egosoft would have been foresighted enough to ensure it has an obvious and easy way of putting a stop to it.

Well, i came up with a work around, basically, the script waits until you get 55K, then steals it from you. So, i just divide up all my money between my stations so i always have just under 50K, this actually does a number on my freighters attached to those stations as they see the stations as having loads of profit and thus cease work a lot. (I have over 1 million so it's quite a lot to keep at each station). the majority though is at the HQ, it seems logical.

And just to keep you all updated, i'm at 66% coverage of the whole galaxy.

Hi, I've just started using this script no too long ago and it's a really cool and handy script; however, there seems to be a "bug", or unintended error =/

I am also currently using the Friendly Pirates script, hence I am on "friendly" terms with the pirates. The satellite I've assigned to detect enemies doesn't seem to think so. I've gotten warning messages from Black Hole Sun and Getsu Fune, when I checked, there weren't any enemies on the map. But there was pirates =/ The same condition was present in both sector; everytime an enemy-sighting was reported, there were only the pirates =/

It's either detecting the pirates or it's detecting things out of satellite's scanner range.

its detecting the pirates.

it doesn't actually check the enemy status of the ships just thier presents.

i'll have to look at adding these checks in so it works with the friendly pirates script

I was guessing that the script checks for "vanilla enemies" instead of relations, and I was hoping you would be kind enough to add that :):P

added in a check for enemy ships, so if u have friendly pirates, it should ignore them.

Er, maybe it's just me, but there aren't any scripts included in the package...

I just wanted to say super thanks :)

I've been trying to raise my rep with the Paranid, and having a Sat in each of their sectors has been incredible help. I don't have to manually check each sector anymore :)

Hey! Will this work on detecting Shivan Dragons that are in the XTM? They have turned evil with the newest patch and will attack anything with their Kyons. Thanks.

it depends what race they are, as it only checks for certain races.

at some point i will be adding a check for any enemy ships as well, so it should be included in that

AFAIK the dragons don't belong to any race. In XTM ver. 0.7.1 they were neutral to everyone except pirates who they attacked at every chance. Now that 0.7.2 is out the dragons attack anything; ( they now show up as red icons on the map) but the reason I wanted to know if you system detects them is the value of the scales.
I've already installed SEWN, so I'll find out sooner or later. Thanks.

Can you make it so the satellite replacement service gives out a global contract, rather than sector-by-sector? I want ALL my sats covered, cuz they get killed everywhere, especially with XTM and frequent random attacks by Xenon, Kha'ak and pirates in all sectors. If I had to wait for that rare occasion when I'm in an AI station AND the BBS message comes up, it'll take forever to get it all covered.

Also, do you need to have the 'enemy detection' coverage active all the time, or can you turn it off? I get tired of hearing "emergency signal' all the time, and that's WITH the Capitals Only setting, due to so many Caracks, Galleons, Reavers, J's, K's, and Kha'ak capitals popping constantly... It's crazy! The Rapid Response ships can barely keep up to clean them out.

Lastly, sorry, but I couldn't handle the poor English in your text file, so I made a few corrections. If you'd like a copy, send me your email and I'll give it to you. :)

i can enable a global command to enable/disable so you can only get warnings when you want instead of all the time.

u could send me the text file and i will gladly add it into the package.

being dyslexic, my spelling and grammer is not the best.

ill look into a global contract, most likly a fixed price based on the number of sectors in the game. So it'll be like 70-80% of the costs if you were to have contracts for every sector

Well it has not interfered with your skill in scripting, which is excellent.

Good idea here, I go into the sectors where I have ASats and don't always get the BBS offer. Could the contract determine how many ASats you have and adjust the fee? Some sectors require more than one.
