Could the rules with regard to power and power transfer be clarified with respect to large planets taking up 2 orbits?
At the moment it only speaks of the power input of a large planet taking up 2 orbits (it gains power from both orbits).
But how does this work for a moon in orbit around the large planet, or for power transfers through the large planet's 2 orbits? Does the large planet count as a single orbit for purposes of power calculations other than natural influx, or should we count them as two distinct orbits for everything other than natural influx (and if so, how do power transfer stations and moons work?)

I will update about this matter this week (not sure exactly when, will try today, but might not be until the end of the week).

A large planet takes up two orbits. For all purposes those orbits are merged into a single orbit, with double power production. That means a large planet in hot orbit around a Main Sequence star functions as a single orbit with 160 base power. It can be transferred to orbits on either side as normal and moons of the large planet share in the available power.
A Large Planet that takes up one orbit due to Heavy Gravity World gets power for one orbit only and operates like any normal planet / orbit in every regard.
