[SCRIPT] [2012.01.21] Automated Satellite Network v2.00

[NeiroAtOpelCC]

I've spent the last hour trying to make this thing work.
I've tried putting the files in the x3tc and the addon subfolders, tried restarting the game and what not. Tried downloading the 2.05 version again just in case.
No matter what I do, I can't see the option in the special commands menu.
I've tried on a wing of 62 kestrels, on a single kestrel and on a buster.
They have both the special commands and the explorer software installed, but nothing shows up.

What's the likelyhood that the latest update from December broke something?

I just tested the v2.05 version in the latest X3AP version (3.3), and the command shows up in the Special Commands section of a Kestrel and a Buster just fine. (The Explorer Command Software is the only extension which is needed.)

Check that you installed the script to the proper directory (main X3TC directory for X3TC, addon folder for X3AP) and to the proper game installation, if you have more than one. Also make sure that your game is set to *modified*. The script won't load otherwise.

IAlso make sure that your game is set to *modified*. The script won't load otherwise.

I haven't seen any place where this is mentioned, nor do I know how to do it. But an old version of a plugin manager enabled modified mode and it works now.
Somehow it's not working properly though.
So far after many hours of gameplay (including significant use of seta) it has still only placed one satellite in the top right corner of each sector. dunno if it does 8 passes or if it was meant to do 8 in each sector one sector at a time.
I've ordered 62 kestrels to deploy, and have not yet run out of money.

Anyway, thank you for the reply.

Thanks for this.

You probably have set 'prioritise 1,' which prioritises having 1 sat in each sector before populating them fully.....i think.... strangely enough

Mind you I only started using this 10 mins ago so i am no expert.

[alphalvr]

Actually you are correct, I had prioritise 1 sat set and 8 point config, but once every system has a sat they stop work telling me every system has a sat and will keep checking if they need replacing.

I am using LXRM which also has other sat scripts so may be an issue, or I just do not understand it properly. I am going to turn off prioritise 1, maybe that setting is supposed to override the other totally.

I'm having issues as well. None of the menu options are showing up. I tried installing with the plugin manager, could that be the issue. Also there is a 2.05 version, do I have to use the google docs link?
