Me Loonn · #1 May 2nd, 2003, 08:03 AM

Im just noticed bug that really needs a fix, mayby not _so_ bad, but annoying anyway; simultanious game unit launching !

Why is there NO WAY to drop only ONE sat per sector, if u want to ? If there is a way, please tell me. It's quite stupid that i MUST place minimun 4 spy sats in same sector in system, i only need ONE and i only want ONE, to monitor that system.

This is well recognized, and indeed frustrating...

The best way to do this is to use 2 ships with cargo. Move a single sat to the ship with sat launcher, and then give the orders. Clumbsy... buy gets it done.

There have been some mods that fix this, but yes unfortunatly it's never been rectified in the stock game. All it takes is the simple addition of a sattelite launching component that launches only one sat per turn. Not diifcult at all to mod.
