Rand alThor -> Can't stop mining station auto-retrofitting (7/12/2013 2:05:55 PM)
|
Just as the title says, I'm playing a game of DW - Shadows, 1.9.0.8, still stuck in my home system and have only a few mining stations up and running.
The wasted space on the default mining stations from the always included luxury extractors really annoys me so I've created from scratch ('add new') station designs for basic locations and luxury locations for both standard and gas mining.
I accept that this causes problems with automatic retrofitting since the A.I. can't handle more than one design for standard and gas mining so I have (as far as I'm aware) turned off ALL the options for automatic designing/upgrading/retrofitting and yet STILL my stations are automatically retrofitting. This becomes a massive pain when luxury stations retrofit to basic stations.
I've just had this thought so I haven't tested it yet, but could this be happening because when I manually upgrade my station designs (usually do them all at the same time) the old design becomes obsolete and it's this factor that causes all existing stations of that design to auto-retrofit regardless of settings? And it just happens that the next viable station in the list of designs happens to be the wrong one?
I'll try testing this when I get home by leaving my old stations as buildable designs (i.e. not obsolete) and upgrading them myself.
Thanks!
P.S.
On that note, is there a way to search through your stations/ships by design? I have a sinking feeling that this ain't possible.
