Evrett -> resupply ship design help (6/9/2014 9:49:16 PM)

I got the tech for resupply ships but no design showed up for it. I tried to create my own but the designs I made wouldn't deploy. What components are required for the resupply ship and what conditions are required in order to deploy it>? Where is the button or menu with the deploy command ?

You need to fly to the target first and then right click it with the resupply ship selected to get the deploy option.

You'll need at least one gas extractor, a cargo hold and a docking port to let any ship use it as a refueling point.

I had a the same problem as you in my previous game and a) thee was no indication anything was missing in the design screen and b) nobody here seemed to know why my resupply ship refused to deploy (it just sat there in front of a gas giant and did nothing with the deploy mission displaying and no action on the 30 second deploy bar). There is obviously some problem, however this game I designed one today in advance to test the thing out and it worked a treat, I have no idea why.

Here's it's spec. I have 400 limit and this ones exactly 500 but it still works.

1x command centre
2x fission reactor
5x standard fuel
7x acceleros engines cell
1x calists-dal warp drive
1x thrust vector
4x gas extractor
15x standard cargo bay
6x docking bay
6x hab module
6x life support
5x deucalios shields
1x energy collector
1x resource profile sensor
10 enhanced armour
2x velocity shards
2x shockwave torpedoes
3x impact assault blasters

I have no idea if this is a "good" design, only that it works. I shot for 500 build size where my normal ship max is currently 400, but again i have no idea if this is a material issue.
