There was talk a while back about a rotating microwave transmitter dish, so it could track the planet. What are the chances of that happening, or does anyone know whether there is a parts mod that includes something that can be used to continuously point a dish at the center of a planet, as the kethane detectors and ISA Mapsat dish does? I'd like to be able to put one of those on my orbital power stations, so I'm not shooting most of the power out into space for a little under 2/3 of my orbit, and instead direct it at the planet's surface and ships in lower orbits. I've tried using multiple dishes, but since generated power isn't divided among the transmitters it just drains the power faster while simultaneously shooting power where I don't want it to go: into space. At the same time, increasing the number of reactors and generators only increases the amount of power that goes out through the transmitter, instead of solving my power problems. I know some people are putting large solar arrays into an orbit of Kerbol and beaming power out to all of the planets, but that's not the route I want to go, because I prefer to keep the source of power close to what it's feeding in case something goes awry. So, any help on solving these issues would be appreciated. Kudos to all of Fractal, zzz and anyone who has had a hand in developing, expanding and testing this mod. It's great.
