How to best deploy satellite network?

Post by Hwitvlf » Fri, 9. Sep 22, 02:51

I was trying to use a Kestrel to deploy a satellite network and it doesn't seem to be working. I have a factory with Advanced Satellites in stock, as well as the HQ - both set as 'tradable' but the kestrel will not restock. Anyone know what requirements the explorer needs to buy more satellites?

Is there a better way to deploy a network?

Since I couldn't get the Kestrel to auto-restock satellites, I tried using the Goner Ranger since it can hold lots more satellites and is decently fast. [EDIT] So far so good.

I thought the Ranger had been destroyed without leaving a message but turns out I had "Show ships type = other" turned off. Strangely, the game still shows TPs under 'other', but the Ranger (type GO) is hidden from the menus, even is 'show hidden ships' is set to 'true'.
