Created page with "You press key key letter p in space that gives you a building block in space which is aligned "centered" to "0" or spawn, best to align you space craft with the key letter c..."

New page

You press key key letter p in space that gives you a building block in space which is aligned "centered" to "0" or spawn, best to align you space craft with the key letter c. This way your straight in space and aligned and everything is centred, you want to construct your building fast, you the player can be attacked, so best to come prepared ! With ample construction materials, need a faction block, a plexanator, shop. Set the faction as in name, set this your "home" invulnerable and claim the sector of space as yours in your map will show that your sector is now owned by your faction. The plexanator is a re-spawn point upon death, you now will spawn at "home", the shop allows trading and storage, may show a symbol on the map.

A derelict station can also be made a home by pressing key p it will show the cost of turning all the blocks back from "scrap" to normal, does not repair the station from existing damages that are artistic, big blast holes etc.... cost is generally around 83 million and up, next is 127 million will have turrets and power, shields etc... you can claim them under faction, but there open to attack and not immune unless you declare it "home". You're only allowed one home. it will have the HP as scrap unless you buy the repair which fixes all the blocks . this way any blocks you do use on the construction will be viable. Putting blocks down on a derelict station will turn to scrap and only recovered will result in scrap. Why "repairing" is required.

Either option works, also best to place a "build block" down makes construction much faster in build mode. also good to have a docking mechanic down so your ship is attached to your station home, so it too becomes immune, when you're off playing around or off line. Your station "home" will have a slight lighter faction color, like a lime green vs a dark green like your ship has. The size of your faction home can be small to start off with, but do allow for some room to expand a bit like for your storages and factories

+Stations offer a number of benefits not available to ships, primarily in that the blocks listed below may be placed on a station. Stations may also be claimed by a faction as their homebase, rendering that station invulnerable, as well as any entity docked to the station. Homebase locations are, however, publicly listed, and this should be kept in mind. A summary of the key functions offered by station-only blocks is as follows:

+==Station Acquisition==
-[[Category:SpaceStation]]
+In most cases, a player will wish to build a station from scratch to suit their needs; this process is detailed directly below. However, a number of existing stations in the universe are "derelict": abandoned by whatever entity may have owned them, and claimable by a player, if they can afford the refurbishment fee. The process of claiming a derelict station is detailed below the relevant heading.

+The hotkey to spawn a station is {{K|Spawn station}}. Spawning a station costs 50,000 credits by default, and causes a single block of Grey Standard Armor to appear near the player. This is the "center" of the station, and is where the navigation diamond for the station will always appear. A station's Y-axis will always be aligned with the axis of the player who spawned it: therefore, care should be taken that the player spawning a station is not at an unnatural angle. Pressing {{K|Align}} while aiming into empty space will ensure that the player is aligned to the galactic normal, and therefore that the station is too.
