Changes I made:
- Now uses Explorer Command Software so it can find new sectors on its own without cheating.
- Now shows currently active tasks. A task of "Automated Satellite Network" means it's thinking about its next move.
- No longer stalls while scanning the entire universe after deploying a satellite. Instead, it looks at the closest sectors first, then expands its scan range if it can't find a sector to deploy in.
- Tries to find a station to shelter in when it is attacked or otherwise has problems or things to consider, instead of just sitting in space.
- No longer jumps directly to undiscovered sectors when in explore mode, and flies through gates the long way instead. This should allow all sectors it discovers to be connected on the map.
- Now bypasses its safe path check if it is capable of jumping, to speed up the decision-making process.
- Illuminate Gates now works with single centre deployment, and will deposit one satellite over each gate.
- Route finding algorithm has been cleaned up a bit.
