[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] Inustrial replicators might be sent down to a planet first to create a foundation- or even a habitat dome prior to the ship parts landing. It would likely establish sanitation and water pumping/reclimation/irrigation basics as well. The Industrial replicator would probably become the center of "town" with initail modules arranged roughly around it. Lights and shutters ae excellent ideas- the shutters might have been heat/radiation shielding for planetary entry when in ship mode and might still serve in that capacity. Never know when that solar flare is gonna cause troubles. ;) A minor settlement shield is probably a good idea and could be made from the ship's deflector grid- nothing to stop planetary bombardment mind you, just something to keep the weather at bay during initial construction and occasional tornados/hurricanes. hmmm....I wonder if the cargo pods on those cardie freighters are made for deployment from orbit- kinda a quick colony resupply from space: just drop a bunch of cargo pods which expand the colony's infrastructure while resupplying it- the empty pods become new building materials, etc. It's also possible that the cargo/landing pods themselves are specialy designed to feed the industrial replicator(s)- possibly even with layered protien molecules in the pod's cobstruction.
