    justi1862 suggested that the satellite blueprints be obtained from the Captain's quarters. The Captain Quarters might be made accessible at some point after the GUN is disabled, (for some reason I'm too lazy to think about,) and the databox containing satellite blueprint is sitting in the captain's room.
    how does that relate to my suggestion
    wait nvm i get it now

    Time to put a comment here.

    Weather, huh?

    Well, lets start with the basics.

    Weather has been hinted at by many sources. The Degasi crew experienced a large storm, the sunbeam mentions "Let's hope the weather holds..." and even the devs showed videos of weather on really old versions of the game, on the trello.

    Weather should function how it does normally, but multiplied by 5 considering it's a water planet and the amount of condensation. The most common should be simple rainstorms, but two types. Either a very windy, or barley windy at all. Wind would affect the waves of the ocean, as well as make the lifepods (5 and 4) and the island bob.

    Next is Thunderstorms, much less common. It's basically rainstorms but more intense, and lighting! If you get really, really unlucky (and are standing next to metal) you can get struck! Winds are around 40 km/h. (25mph) Waves are high, and can even move your lifepod (Although, it would be not able to leave the Safe Shallows, just move around it.)

    Now were getting to the really rare stuff. Next is hurricanes, basically Thunderstorms x6. They also stop for about a minute before continuing, simulating the eye of the storm. They have winds of up to 129 km/h (80mph), and are really intense.

    And then, we have the final weather event, and most likely the rarest. During a storm or hurricane, there should be a 0.001% chance of a Waterspout touching down. A waterspout is a weaker version of a tornado, but on the water. They are known to suck up small fish, which may rain down later. They also have winds of up to 161 km/h (100mph).

    I spent a whole period in class typing this, so I hope you guys enjoy this lmao.
