Build and manage your own stations, with a wide variety of bases and modules to grow your galactic empire.
Available station models include:
Standard stations that provide basic services like ship repair and trading with NPCs;
Weapon turrets to provide defenses;
Mining stations, to mine big asteroids;
Production stations: factories, laboratories and "agristations";
Power plants that provide energy to nearby bases;
Jumpgates;
Beacons that provide light or set spawn positions on the sector;
Internal station modules:
Each station comes with a few default modules like a generator or a basic defense setup, then a limited space for expansion, allowing deeper customization.
Station Capture:
In addition to building your own base, you can now capture enemy stations (limited to hideouts for now).
New ship role: Engineer
Engineer ships have a built-in 'Builder module', which is required for base building. They also have bonus to repair beams, which are used in the actual building process.
New ship models:
Added 2 tier 3 yachts (size 2): the Beaver and Raccoon.
New game mode: Station defense
A new game mode where you start with an engineer ship equipped with a repair beam instead of a normal weapon, and basic materials in order to build your base right from the start. Battle enemies in waves and trade with NPCs to grow your empire!
