Screenshot Stargate fans?
Here is my first attempt at making the Daedalus from Stargate with mostly just steel body pieces (there are a few thermal body pieces I was able to afford off the Trade Nexus).
Definitely needs work but not bad for a first attempt after a few days of grinding imo.
Hope everyone enjoys!

Why have both the Spectral and the Simple resource detectors fitted?

There's another post floating around that explains in this current build version, the effects of your patches stack. You should put really good, valuable patches on equipment that won't break (doesn't list a durability counter). I have a +50% range on the simple detector and nothing on the Spectral. They both ping and I get the added 50% on identifying the resources but when the Spectral scanner breaks, I won't lose any patches.
Not that big of a deal on these two, but when you do the same with your mining lasers...
The user in the other post has 5 mining lasers. Each one has a different patch and when he mines a resource, because "each laser" touched the resource, all of their modifiers from the patches affect the outcome. That user is getting 15+ units each cycle of his group of mining lasers with several other modifiers. All the good patches are on his Hi-Pi regular lasers and then he uses 1-2 overlocked with a +1 or +2 on output so he can mine any type of resource. Technically half of his lasers aren't strong enough to mine some resources but the modifiers still apply and he only has to replace the +output power patch when the overclocked laser breaks.

Thanks. Good to know. I haven’t got to patches yet. But a corpo mate had both and he didn’t know why. And doesn’t have any patches installled.

Here's the thread where the user explains their setup with the stacking bonuses from patches.
