Supergate Problems
One thing I've noticed with the supergates is that if you fly a large ship with a stargate on it and try to use a DHD to activate the Supergate, the connection will fail (as in, it will say it cannot find the other Supergate).

This also appears to be the case if you have a gated large ship (same as above) and you use a DHD attached to the Supergate. Once the ship with a Stargate is moved far enough away, the Supergate can be activated.

If you're having problems with the Supergates, try making sure you do not have a large ship with a Stargate on it near the Supergate. Lets say no closer than 700 meters to be safe. I would like some confirmation on this please.

The activation issues the OP mentioned should have been fixed in a past update. It's more careful about selecting gates now.

Could we get a seperate Supergate DHD? I have a ship with a Stargate Base, and unless I deconstruct it partially I cannot activate supergates with any on-board DHD.

I suppose this could also be fixed with a code endered in like the autoclose command. But I would bet most large ships could accomidate an extra DHD somewhere.

You could even make it an airtight block so it could replace part of the hull.

I can't even place any supergate, universe gate and universe dhd works fine.
It is a bug? it don't accept the placement in any block in any place

You many need to "Start a New Station" and connect it to that block first. After the pattern has been placed you can delete the "new station" square and simply weld the supergate together.

i just tried to do that, it doesn't connect to that particular block.
And the squares are green, i don't understand

are you sure you have adequate clearance? the super gate is so large I've found it hard to be sure that there isnt' a ship or asteroid in the way.
