Satellites don't move -- they sit there and other units move around them. It could also be that special code is present to handle satellites since he expected people to put PDC in them, but not for fighters because he didn't expect people to put PDC in them.

ok, now for a few facility questions...do negative numbers work for facilities (ie, happiness, resources, % increase in resources for planet or system etc).

I'd like to make forced labour camps/slave camps that either decrease happiness or 'eat' organics.

I just ran across this thread and skimmed through it so forgive me if I repeat someone. The question that I am addressing is special damage for drones. In my mod I needed to simulate radiation damage to a planet using a drone as the delivery vehicle. To do this I gave the warhead on the drone the plague level # feature and it works just fine. Is this what you meant by special damage? I see that others say it does not work, however IF (stress on if) this is what you meant I can assure you that even after multiple test there is no problems and it can be done.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I do not know about negative percent increases. But, a negative resource production does work. Negative system happiness ability does not work. Negative planet happiness ability does work. However, if there is any other happiness ability affecting it that is positive, the negative gets ignored. Unlike all other abilities, the system and planet happiness abilities are treated as the same, and only the best gets used. So, if your slave camp has -10 to planet happiness and you build a UPC I with +1 to system happiness, the planet ends up with a net +1 to happiness per turn, with the slave camp being totally ignored. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif
