'''Space Stations''' are built in space to provide living space for humans, and are specialized to produce certain goods. Ships can dock at them, allowing access to the station services. Station services include accepting missions, buying new ships or outfitting for ships, clearing and collecting bounty, paying fines, refueling, repairs, trading (legally and illegally). They are also equipped with their own defence systems in place to deal with criminals and smugglers. Station defences are '''very''' powerful and can destroy a medium size ship (Hauler, Cobra) in a matter of seconds.

These structures rotate to provide centrifugal force simulating the pull of gravity. The exterior appearance of a station is an accurate depiction of its specialized economic output, although there are several variants of each model. For example, towns and farms are clearly visible in agricultural hubs, or ''Orbis ''models.

Not all stations may offer all services.

==Docking==
{{Main|Docking}}

To dock with a station, pilots must first request docking permissions by accessing the navigational terminal's "Contacts" tab. Pilots farther than 7,500m from a station will be automatically denied access and asked to approach to said distance first. In heavily populated or lagging instances, all ports may be occupied and a permit will be denied. Once granted, the pilot will be assigned a landing pad number he or she should approach and land on. If the pilot does not land within the allotted time slot [usually 10 minutes], the pilot will have to exit the station and request additional permissions. Attempting to dock without permissions will trigger a lethal response within 59 seconds. This includes docking with the incorrect landing platform.

If docking control responds with a generic "docking request denied" message, then it's likely all landing pads are occupied. Logging out of the open game and into solo play will usually fix this. Once docked, you can switch back to open play.

Upon undocking from your landing platform, you will have 4:59 to exit the station before you are considered a loiterer and a 59-second hostility timer begins.

To either side of the docking port are lights coloured green and red. Pilots should approach on the side with the green lights to reduce the chance of a collision.

==Ship Storage==
Players can purchase and store additional ships at each station and switch freely between them when docked. These can be accessed from the shipyard section of the starport services screen.

==No Fire Zone==
All stations have an area surrounding them designated a no fire zone. You are notified each time your ship enters and exits this area. You will also receive a message when your ship enters this zone to retract your weapons, should they be deployed at the time. Station defences will activate and open fire on your ship if you should fire any of your weapons within the no fire zone or you will be fined. Using any scanner within the no fire zone is perfectly legitimate and legal.

Dumping any cargo within the no fire zone will get you fined.

{{quote|The Type 7 Transporter is Lakon Spaceway's medium size transport vessel. This is a new model, released in 3290. It's slow but moves a lot of tonnage for its size.|In-Game Description}}

The '''{{PAGENAME}},''' previously known as "Freighter 3", is a large and moderately armed freighter. It is one of three freighters produced by [[Lakon Spaceways]], the others being the smaller [[Lakon Type-6 Transporter]] and the larger [[Lakon Type-9 Heavy]]. While it has the potential to defend itself from small ships, the {{PAGENAME}} is not designed for combat and thus it is recommended to anyone flying this ship that they should avoid combat whenever possible.

Unfortunately due to this ship requiring a [[Landing Pad|large landing pad]], the {{PAGENAME}} cannot dock at [[Outpost]]s. For any traders who plan to dock at an outpost it is recommended that they opt to fly the Lakon Type-6 Transporter instead as it is the biggest freighter that can dock at outposts.

Repair costs on the Type-7 are low which makes trading without shields a reasonable strategy if you can avoid combat along the way.
