Default Re: Is Multiplex Tracking broken?

Conventional wisdom is that the planet has built-in multiplex. Clicking on the planet will let you know exactly how many. IIRC, it was 99 targets. People have observed that it may peter out after 3 to 5 targets. Bases with multiplex 5 have likewise been known to stop after 2 or 3.

This part of the game may be a little buggy as yet. Since walling in your planets with weapon platforms and warp points with bases was not considered an important (useful?, efficient?, sporting?, successful?) tactic, it may not have been tested as much.

Now wth new mods that make defending your planets more important, its becoming a problem.
