quick question regarding influence on planets in my system below

[[VR] Mad Mike]

Hi
Sorry i know this is probably me being thick but with the huge time sink involved (as well as the ARX i have paid naming some bases) I dont want to get this any more wrong than i already have.

my system image should be attached.
My primary starport is already added and i am building security on the 2 orbital slots of the planet farthest to the right, and planning a bar on the 1 slot to the left of it.

My Questions however are regarding the stuff around the Gas giant.

Below the gas giant there are 3 orbital slots, and then the 1st moon which has its own orbital slots.

My question is, will anything built in any of the 3 orbital slots near the gas giant also get influence from the single orbital slot from the 1st moon of the gas giant (and vice versa)


question number 2, the 6th and 7th moons of the gas giant are both landable. they have a line linking them together. i am not sure what that means... does this mean that any influence on 1 moon will also affect the other?
and if so what about the orbital slots (2 on 1 moon, 1 on the other) will these also influence both planets as well due to that line which links both moons?

question 3 moons 5A and 5B will they influence each other at all?

thanks.

No. The line indicates that the two moons are orbiting around a common centre of mass outside the surface of either (rather than a planet-and-moon relationship where the common centre of mass is inside the planet). This doesn't affect colonisation.

No.

Each body in a system has a completely independent set of slots.

Are there "quick questions" when it comes to this stuff?

They all seem to involve "long" answers.

thanks... i knew you would not let me down Ian (even tho the answer was not what i had hoped!)
