EarthCracker: Orbital Superweapon Mod
An abandoned relic from the days of orbital mining. Many lie dormant above lost planets, their fusion cores keeping them powered for a thousand years.
Before the time of atomic material restructuring, all metals and materials were processed from raw ore. Earth crackers were the answer to ravenous galactic expansion. These massive satellites were assembled on transit to a planet or moon. Positioning themselves in orbit, their fusion cutting beam would tear through miles of rock, cutting enormous pieces from its surface that would be pulled up to orbit by tractor winches. Some ran continuously for centuries until newer methods replaced them. Too large to move and expensive to disassemble, many were deserted and forgotten.
Knowledge of their existence is kept alive by the stories told of ships who unknowingly approach arrays of dormant crackers, never to be heard of again.

I'm looking into why this occurs, but until it's solved, these steps are necessary for the game to load properly.
