![]() ![]() It would probably still work with RT if it were developed, there are certainly times when I have omni's I would rather not talk to each other (I would prefer my space stations not act as a relay), but it just isn't as necessary. As I said, it's still abstracted in RemoteTech, in the real world you have communication frequencies so you can make even more detailed constellations, and I think that is what that mod aims to do. The reason that mod seems necessary is because in ComNet, everything is omnidirectional which means everything in range talks to everything in range. So you typically have satellites aimed at different bodies and thus, constellations. If you have a directional dish aimed at Duna, it's not likely to be able to communicate with Moho or Eve for very much of the time. Constellations are almost inherent, maybe not as much as the mod adds, but they are there. Combining antennas isn't entirely accurate either (though this is a thing IRL, called antenna arrays).įrom what I'm reading about Comnet Consteallations, I don't think the feature is as necessary with RemoteTech because of the directional antennas. What isn't realistic is having dish antennas behave as omnidirectional, having your antennas more powerful because you upgraded the ground station, and having "partial control" (seriously? What is this, analog computing? It's all or none, it either gets a actionable message or it doesn't.). Just to add, what I mean by little reality, of course it has antenna communications and signal occlusion, that is realistic. That makes the whole thing insanely confusing (at least for me who has a small amount professional experience working with real radio systems, I suppose results may vary).Īs for your mods, I have no experience with any of those so I can't really provide a good opinion either way there. ![]() Yes, it works, but it is a completely made up rule set based on little reality. This is where ComNet fails, RemoteTech is an abstracted form of real communications while ComNet is fiction. ![]() I hate to cry "realism" but a certain degree of realism can help with understanding of a concept. I prefer RemoteTech because quite frankly, it makes sense so it's easy to understand. ![]()
