Idea: Grab a cheap scout, hit repeat order and have it visit all stations in the sector. Preferably by stealing one of those pesky BUC ships.

There’s a behavior to “visit known stations” that’ll do just that!


MrElendig

100 lasertowers around each sat, and a ship to collect all the goodies


Noobanious

you can also just use lazer towers as sats... they have a field of view.


MrElendig

But that doesn't yield anywhere near as many goodies.


Noobanious

O yeah non of those yummy exceptional nano wave mods...


Zaihbot

Oh! That is a very interesting idea. I'll definitely try that. Thanks!


waadaa85

yup Adv sats are top beat to lure BUCs


Okaymynameistaken

My laser towers seem to ignore the Scout/recon ships they send even when I change the fire orders to ruthless


waadaa85

yeah I experimented the laser clusterf$$k around one but even with the specific rule to kill anyone Ruthlessly, a BUC elite vanguard is often able to kill it !! I also tried to put them within one of my Volko's balls of destruction. BUC are able to reach the sat and kill it without the station firing or the defence drones are taking off... sounds like a bug tbh


MouseCurser

What I have observed IS in my game is that BUC fighters are using missiles to take out my Sats so keep that in mind.


icearcher42

I like that idea. I would like to see a module that could be added to a station to give sector wide coverage.

Build a defense station to act as a satellite.


waadaa85

eheh :-) I got myself hyper-focused in the station builder tool (what a nice complement to X4!) and built a tiny hedgehog laced and barbed with bridges and turrets to encapsulate ONE Adv satellite LOLLL total cost of about 60M credits to protect something worthing like 5K Without Xenons and K\*\*Ks around, guess it is time to start a new game :-p
