Base Ship Yards & Satellite Layers- Am I being Stupid...?

Submitted by Grimlock on Fri, 2007-11-30 20:57. Space Empires V General

Do BSYs need cargo holds when they are above a planet with lots of cargo space?

Previously i didn't have them but i didn't think they were building the units. So now i put cargo holds on them, but this is such a pain to micro manage transferring the cargo out when it gets full?

Do they need cargo holds if they are building ships?

I'm presuming its not possible to put 2 space yards on 1 BSY..

Satellite Layers:
I keep launching satellites and then finding out later (when they get into a fight) that there is no supplies... when satellites pick up satellites, do they take their supplies off them? I know when you add supplies to a sat layer, they are added to the satellites 1st.

Cheers

All produced units go into cargo of anything with free cargo capacity in same hex (sector).

So base with SY does not need cargo capacity if its over planet.

Ships and bases are buildt directly in space, so to build them cargo containers are not needed.

You can change SY component to allow more per ship, but normaly limit is 1 per vehicle.
