Re: Command Relays

is this a bug report topic?

New: Buildings can only be placed within the network construction range of terminals (1-1.5 km depending on tier). Also, you are not allowed to connect any abandoned building to your network that is outside of this range. The exceptions from both of these rules are: mining outposts, energy wells, accelerator strips, and command relays.

Re: Command Relays

Confirmed command relays can not be placed in a red zone.

Re: Command Relays

You guys are talking about 2 different rules... Ville is talking about placing command relays into the red areas, and Anni is talking about the ability of placing buildings outside of a terminal's range.

Re: Command Relays

It's not a bug but I'm not sure why we didn't include an exception for command relays in the case of red areas.

maybe because you thought "red areas are 2km, command relay connection range is 2.5km, which should sufficient for any spot. (I see some areas on solarfield that may not fall under this rule)
