==Overview==

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 ~~that~~ 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 to any ships in the area; nevertheless, evacuating civilians can be a lucrative pastime for any independent pilots willing to risk their ships.

Before December ~~14,~~ 3303, large-scale attacks against Starports were rare. At that time, a number of stations in the [[Pleiades Nebula]] were devastated by the Thargoids. In 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 ~~castrophic~~ 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==

~~[[Starport]]s~~ 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 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

*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 to ~~hundreds~~ of millions of [[Credits]], depending on the Starport being evacuated.
