Modders. RE: Sats with Combat movement.

In effect that is what I was thinking, but I hadn't worked out a good game explaination of it. Thanks.

Ideally there would be a way to keep the two seperate. But if not, it doesn't really affect game play. It's just a different picture/description.

So you think it would work otherwise? This my first attempt at ship/unit/component modding. My Trekmod was all just cosmetic changes. There is a LOT I don't know yet about this side of it.

It will get loaded on carriers and used as though it were a fighter.

That's true.

Not only would these "mobile satellites" get loaded on carriers, that's the ONLY way you could deploy them from a ship. The standard satellite bays wouldn't be able to launch the mobile satellites...

Once you have discarded the distinction between sats and fighters, you could simply give both your components the ability to launch both vehicles equally.
