Planet terraforming - foundations and power - equitorial area
Creates foundation and power poles for a planet. Also marks ideal locations for ILS towers. See reddit post https://www.reddit.com/r/Dyson_Sphere_Program/comments/uyh5z4/my_new_planet_prepping_blueprints_i_use/
This collection REQUIRES THE BlueprintTweaks mod (which does NOT disable achievements)
IMPORTANT NOTE: The mod will NOT bury ore veins/oil seeps so you must prep by flattening those otherwise power poles may not be placed. ALSO NOTE: The mod does not properly remove ground debris (trees/rocks etc) so after placement, you may need to fly around clearing up debris by hand if you want a completely clean build surface.
I had to make the prints quite small (especially the equatorial one) as blueprintTweaks gets weird and doesn't always copy foundations correctly. The smaller size helps to make placement easier (though the equatorial one can be quite tricky still)
Placement order: 1. Polar - 4 times in northern hemisphere, overlapping tower and vertical row of poles from previous paste each time. 2. tropics - 4 times in northern hemisphere matching top row of power poles to bottom row from polar poles. 3. equatorial 10 times in northern hemisphere matching top row of power poles to bottom row from tropics poles. 4 flip and place equatorial 10 times in southern hemisphere matching top row of power poles to bottom row from equator poles. 5 flip and place tropics 4 times in southern hemisphere matching top row of power poles to bottom row from equatorial poles. 6 flip and place polar in southern hemisphere.
This is for the equatorial area ( the 16 square wide region) and covers 36 degrees of one hemisphere. It will need pasting 10 times in each hemisphere. Place after placing the tropics foundations, overlapping the lower ring of poles from that print. Second and subsequent paste overlaps vertical power pole line from previous paste. The print also includes markings for ILS towers.
