Use Instructions
1. Create a source of power for the antenna(s).

2. Change the antenna name(s) to one of the above (you can have multiple antennas with different names)

3. Select everything on the grid and change ownership to "Space Pirates."

Prepare to get droned.

You're welcome. I need to dig out and add the "trigger" distance.

Thanks! I've been looking for this.

You bet! I'm glad you found it useful.

Awesome Guide! 5/5 thxthxthx

You should be able to highlight the grid and change ownership to SPRT. I've never had a problem.

I'm having difficulty changing ownership to SPRT/Space Pirates. Doesn't show up as an option, and I don't seem to be able to add it as one. Does this method not work in survival mode, or am I an idiot for other reasons?

I agree.

Thanks! Rox is always helpful from their posts I've seen. I wonder what else there is like this almost nobody knows about? This is the kind of stuff people have been complaining is missing in the game for years. It's there. They just haven't told us how to access and use it. Lol

I dug into the data files to get all this information. Rox was a big help pointing me in the right direction. She knows everything about this game.

Is this something the default game does you found somehow or did you create it?
