A '''Damaged Starport''' is a [[Starport]] that has previously being attacked by [[Thargoid|Thargoids]] and has became damaged. These Starports will be displayed on the [[Galaxy Map]], and these Starports can automatically updated on [[GalNet]].  
A '''Damaged Starport''' is a [[Starport]] that has been damaged in a [[Thargoid]] attack. These Starports will be displayed on the [[Galaxy Map]], and their status updated on [[GalNet]].  


==Overview==
==Overview==
Damaged Starports are normal space station can often appear outside of [[Core Systems|The Bubble]], where [[Power|Powers]] is presenting. When [[Incursion]] is occurr, one or more damaged Starports can appear in incursion [[star system]] in which [[Rescue Vessel|Rescue Megaships]] will be deployed to rescue peoples that still in this Starport. According to the [[GalNet]], The Oracle in the [[Delphi]] system began tumbling out of orbit following a recent Thargoid attack, are known as the first damaged Starport ever recorded on the [[Milky Way]] and are considered stablized by impendent Pilots who have risked their life to save peoples in the Oracle before it crashes the moon and being repaired by the Delphi's humans.     
Damaged Starports are normal space stations that can often appear outside of [[Core Systems|The Bubble]]. During an [[Incursion]], one or more Starports in a [[star system]] can be damaged by attacking Thargoids, and [[Rescue Vessel|Rescue Megaships]] will be deployed to nearby systems to coordinate efforts to repel the Thargoids and rescue personnel who are still trapped within those Starports. A Damaged Starport is a dangerous location, as catastrophic malfunctions and potentially the continued presence of Thargoids render attempting to dock extremely hazardous for any ships in the area; nevertheless, evacuating civilians can be a lucrative pastime for any independent pilots willing to risk their ships.
 
Punishment of the no fire zone is being partially reduced: no bounty is gained when fire weapons in no fire zone, through fine can still gained from firing. Turret will also not fire your [[Ship]] when shooting at the Starport, but instead [[System Authority Vessel|Authorities]] will assist the damaged Starport by destroy your ship instead.

Before December 14, 3303, attacks on this scale were apparently rare until December 14, 3303, when a number of stations in the [[Pleiades Nebula]] were devastated by Thargoids. In 24 May, 3307, [[The Oracle]] Starport located in the [[Delphi]] system being attacked by Thargoid in [[Second Thargoid War]]. This led to a castrophic failure that shutdown Oracle's thruster systems, making The Oracle falling down Delphi 5 a on literally. Very fortunately, impendent Pilots has saved the Oracle by rescue peoples that are stuck in the Oracle and make The Oracle stablized.
Before 14 December 3303, large-scale attacks against Starports were rare. At that time, a number of stations in the [[Pleiades Nebula]] were devastated by the Thargoids. On 24 May 3307, [[The Oracle]] Starport located in the [[Delphi]] system was attacked by Thargoids, being the first Starport on record to take such comprehensive damage. This damage led to a catastrophic failure that shut down The Oracle's thruster systems, destabilizing The Oracle’s orbit and threatening a collision with the moon below. Very fortunately, independent pilots saved The Oracle by risking their lives to rescue trapped personnel and stabilize The Oracle’s orbit. Titan's Daughter also experienced similar damage on a later date.
 
Further stations throughout the Core Systems have been damaged as a result of the [[Second Thargoid War]].
 
==Effects==
Starports in a system experiencing an [[Incursion]] will first enter an "under attack" state, which is marked with a red skull icon on the [[Galaxy Map]]. Starports in this state do not experience any adverse effects, but the local system will experience increased Thargoid activity. After each week in which human forces fail to repel the Thargoid incursion, one Starport in the system will enter the "damaged" state, which is marked with a fire icon on the Galaxy Map.
 
Starports in a damaged state will experience multiple adverse effects:
* Nearly all Starport services will be disabled, and the service interface will be glitched.
* An emergency protocol will be activated to evacuate remaining civilians on the damaged Starport; this takes the form of Evacuation Missions available from the Passenger Lounge.
* [[Docking Computer]] usage is disabled, forcing incoming ships to dock with the Starport manually.
* Ships that enter the Starport corridor will gain [[heat]] over time, even when docked.
* Random explosions can occur in the Starport corridor, potentially damaging and displacing ships inside.
* Some [[Black Box]]es will be available for salvage within the Starport corridor.
* A breach in the Starport's reactor core will leak radiation to the Starport's exterior, disrupting nearby ships' [[HUD]]s.
* No-fire zone punishments are partially reduced; bounties will not be imposed (though fines may still be accrued), and the station's defense turrets will not fire at attacking vessels (however, [[System Authority Vessel]]s will still defend the Starport from attackers).
 
== Evacuation Missions ==
When a Starport is damaged, the [[Mission Board]] is still accessible. Passenger missions are replaced with evacuation missions, which require one or more [[Passenger Cabin]]s to accept; these missions require pilots to carry passengers to a deployed [[Rescue Vessel]]. This mission type can reward anywhere from tens of thousands to tens of millions of [[Credits]], depending on the Starport being evacuated.
 
==Repairing==
After the system enters a [[Post-Thargoid Recovery]] state, the Starport will enter a repairing phase which is marked with an orange wrench on the Galaxy Map. During this state, the system's population will begin efforts to repair damaged Starports, which requires a large amount of materials over the course of days or even weeks. [[Commander]]s cam accelerate the progress by delivering necessary materials to the system. Once the repairs are complete, the previously damaged Starport will return to full operations.
