Satellite Uplink Center spin speed too fast?

[JDW]

Satellite Uplink Center rotates way too fast for it's size IMHO. It could feel more realistic if it spun at a more slower speed like that of the Cannon Fortress.

Also, has anyone seen one of those huge satellite dishes spin in real life? They take minutes to complete one rotation. However, I wouldn't want WZ satellites to rotate that slow either

I think it wouldn't be possible without automaticaly slowing down rotation speed of all other radars. Maybe with some changes to the code...
Those spin so slow because they are tracking something. A satellite to keep connection to it. This one doesn't.

Point taken. But how about comparing the speed to the size of this sensor, the current speed gives a feeling that the sensor base is very lightweight. I know it's the future and supposed to be advanced technology, but let's talk about realism here

The canon fortress has excellent work done to show how heavy it is. However, if the code isn't worth changing then I guess it's just fine.

Apart from the feasibility of implementing it, are you agreeing that it would look better with a little slower rotation speed?

Well, it really would make it stand out...

Satellite Uplink Center.

Exactly

[Tenoh]

Uplink should track the satellite isnt it? so why does it spin at all?

[MetalWarrior95]

To keep tracking all satelites and to have whole overview of the map, its radar/satelitecom/weapon/ect at the same time!

As there is no further explanation on how the Satellite Uplink Center works, only someone in the WZ2100 dev team can tell us if the Satellite Uplink Center was designed as a way of communicating with a satellite in space, or terrestrial. But the word satellite itself means something in the orbit of a planet.
