I think I will have everything ready to start tomorrow or Thursday.

Speaking of configuration settings, I really don't see a problem with increasing the max range of modems if you want. It's even fairly realistic to do so.
Also nothing short of almost-infinite range will let you communicate beyond loaded chunks.

By the way, immibis, the modem peripheral has lots of interfaces and such that are easily implemented by a custom modem peripheral.

You can comunicate with in infinite range to any loaded chuncks, even when there are unloaded chunks between.
But I still like the idea of satalites.

So I just read this post for the first time. My general vision of this is a relay/satellite type of block that can communicate with computers maybe using a new event, "rednet_relay" or "rednet_sat". So:
[Relay] >id Relay ID: 1 >edit receive local event, id, message = os.pullEvent("rednet_message") if message == "What is your ID?" then rednet.send(id, os.getRelayID()) end [Computer sending the message] >edit send relayID = 1 message = read() rednet.send(relayID, message) local event, message = os.pullEvent("rednet_message") print(message)This is the basic jist of the relay (Through my eyes) This definately sounds like a neat idea and I hope it is implemented soon This will make for some new interesting builds on servers. Maybe a huge database of information easily accessible by players far from the computer/database.

I like this idea. Maybe you could make Ronald Reagan's legacy if you have ICBM on your client as well.

It would be very awesome, wouldn't it?

I'd make the turtle a sattelite instead. then have it accept a protocol to allow you to send it to different coordinates at max altitude. I use repeater towers on my server, but for the high earth orbit stuff a wireless turtle would be great.

What about if this was the recipie?
S = solar panel
E = Emerald
D = Diamond
I = Iron
R = Redstone
M= modem
N = Nether Star
Wing = W
I I I
SSE
I I I
Antenna = A
INI
IMI
IRI
Satilite Computer = C
EEE
ERE
EEE
Satilite
SAS
WCW
SCS
And to launch it:
Rocket Pad:
I I I
I I I
Rocket: (N = netherack F= Flint And Steel)
I
IFI
INI
S = solar panel
E = Emerald
D = Diamond
I = Iron
R = Redstone
M= modem
N = Nether Star
Wing = W
I I I

If I see one more recipe in a suggestion post the threads concerned will be locked.
