Big Landing&Repair Pad

Big Landing & Repair Platform (for planets and space)

<<< ** UPDATE ** >>>
Changed configuration to 4x T3 Fuel Tanks + 2x T2 Fuel tanks.
Added solar panels to the maximum of 15, more capacitators (4 in total)
Added Small Generator.
New position of the airtight compound to allow leaving platform while repair takes place.

<<< ** UPDATE ** >>>
Added missing ammo box.

------------------------------------

Same platform layout taken from the compact platform 'Landing_Repair Platform', only much bigger with

61x24 Landing Area.

Made of concrete blocks
Easy access ramp for HVs
Airtight compound with repair console, Repair Bay installed
Landing area with guiding lights
1 O2 Station
4 T3 Fuel Tanks, 2 T2 Fuel Tanks
2 small O2 Tanks
1 Large, 1 small Generator
15 solar panels, 4 capacitators
4x turret platforms for defense (Turrets not included)
1x Ammo Box

Repair instructions:
Fuel is only needed for repair sessions, otherwise the platform is self-sufficient even with a gravity generator in space, the battery will fill near to maximum and you'll have 6000 fuel (4x 1500) before your fuel tanks are required.
Make sure to position a larger vessel so that no parts of it overlap with the railing borders of the platform, otherwise you get a message from the repair console that the repair is impossible. During repair, leave the platform through the ramps outside of the console compound, do not enter in contact with the green repair zone (see screenshot #3).

Tactical Note about CVs and other vehicles on the platform:
Be aware that CVs on the platform will be landed but not be docked and therefore will NOT be protected from attacks! It's good to activate the CV mounted projectile turrets (canons+miniguns) if an attack occurs so the CV will defend itself. SVs and HVs will instead be docked and safe in case of attack except from bomber drones in the RE and PE scenarios (and in vanilla too if these bombers are in the game).

Installation:
When placing the blueprint on planets make sure all orange pylons are buried underground and all solar panels are free from terrain materials. Because of the big lenght of the platform, make adjustements with the console to elevate or sink the platform. The console command to do this is:
setposition [ID] y+1 (= elevate by 1 block).
setposition [ID] y-1 (= sink by 1 block).
Repeat if necessary (hitting space bar will insert the last command, hit enter to execute.)

In space, add a Gravity Generator where it's marked GG.
