[SOLVED]Open space listening posts

Post by ajeffco »

Hello,

In DW1, it was possible to build listening posts in open space. Is this possible in DW2? If it's possible I have no idea how to do it.

TIA

No, you can only build stations near objects.

Too bad. Maybe they will bring it back.

Thanks!

Thanks for that. I for the life of me cannot figure out how. Hopefully someone will see this and post how.

Figured it out. It's in the Galactopedia ;)
