Description
As i was bored..........
This ALP adds a new command in the "General Menu" of the console entitled "Create Gate"
This plugin will install a new EMP ware to Terran & ATF docks Jumpgate Construction Software
Costing 95k any ship capable of carrying XL cargo with 2 Units of JCS can order gate building.
Depending on the distance between the sector your starting from and the jump sector the gates take longer to build. You are also charged more the further you wish to go.
Gate construction is Expensive !!!!!!!
You can only have 4 gates per sector (or the game goes wonky) so i've blocked this, in addition if you do build a gate that you no longer require by targeting it (your aim) and running the "Create Gate" command you can destroy it.
It's that simple
Also the moment you turn the plugin off it will remove all wares and gates.
================================
Version 1.3 update
After more boredom i decided to change most of the features and removed the need for EMP and also added some fluff to the building process
As of 1.3
You MUST use a M1 or TL class ship
Gates must be created from the materials sold at race Gate Construction Centres.
A new hotkey allows opening of the menu although it is still also bound to the ships menu.
You can find the locations of the Gate Centres via this menu, in addition it will tell you how much of each material is needed to construct gates from x-y
To load up with Materials fly within 6k of one of the centres and turn on the Start Material Command by clicking it
Your ship will be loaded by the station and each transaction counts as enough materials for 1 sector, each trade costs 50k
Building gates is done the same way as before and once your route is chosen drones will now launch from you ship and build the gates for you.
Final Addition
I added some waste wares to the gate fabs which are produced during trade or production, you are advised to use the Radioactive Waste and Hazardous Waste to fill the Waste Facility that is created with the Gate Factories as they will make needed Trading Drones. It is also much safer than the fabs disposing of the waste themselves
Once a fab is full of either waste it will stop producing until the waste is traded.
====================
You are recommended to turn off the plugin and back on again to re-install (give it about 5m sets) and I've added an option so it won't nuke any gates already built unless you choose to do so.
Enjoy.
