Add a better guide in-game or external to explain how to work with CommNext #29
Description
In the meantime here we go with the short tips version:
- Antennas are split between Relays (only the dish antennas, you can check it in the OAB with shift pressed while hovering the part) and normal Antennas
- Only Relays can be used to transfer signal between two vessels. Normal antennas can not forward, only receive signal from other relays (or KSC)
- Signal may be blocked by a celestial body if the planet is between the vessel and the relay
- Each Antenna has a range (indicated in meters / kilometers / etc. in the OAB). To communicate two vessels should be each one in the range of the other (you can use the Rulers in map view to check this)
- Relays should be powered (EC > 0) to be functional. This can be disabled in Mods > Settings.
- Stock CommNet has higher ranges, we are using the lower antenna ranges from KSP1. Even here, shift in the OAB to see the ranges
- Connections are limited to antennas with the same Bands. This means you can create different networks. A vessel can connect to another only if both have the same Band. You can add multiple bands to a vessel using multiple antennas or using higher level antennas. (You can check this in the OAB with shift pressed in the "Signal Modulator" section)
