Orbital Defense Platforms Beta

This is my second mod for Stellaris and is still in beta, it requires Apocalypse for some elements.

This mod adds three tiers of builds which unlock the "Create Orbital Defense Platforms" decision, with the final tier unlocking the "Create Orbital Ion Cannons" decision. This can be used on planets and habitats however the final tier requires a fully upgraded capital and habitat platforms can clip into the habitat.

Tier 1: Up to 6 platforms around the planet
Tier 2: Up to 10 platforms around the planet
Tier 3: Up to 15 platforms around the planet, Up to 1 Ion Cannon
Eternal Vigilance: +3 platforms, +1 Ion Cannon
Finished Unyielding: +3 platforms, +1 Ion Cannon
This gives a total of 21 Orbital Platforms, up to 3 of which can be Ion Cannons.

The Defense Platforms have a minor buff to make them a bit more competitive with Orbital Rings, the cost of the platforms is to approximate their starbase cost but also to account for their buff, selecting Eternal Vigilance will reduce these costs somewhat.

There are some issues with repairing the platforms but they fix any position issues shortly.

Any feedback or bug reports would be greatly appreciated!

Compatibility

This mod only adds content and so should be compatible with anything else. If included with Lithoid Supremacy, then the Lithoid Supremacy buildings will supersede the ODP buildings.
