A Landing Pad is a facility or marked area where ships can dock. Upon landing at a Landing Pad, a ship's landing gear is locked in place and the pilot can access the local port's services interface. Accessing the Commodities Market, Mission Board, Passenger Lounge, Universal Cartographics, Contacts, GalNet, Refueling, Restock, and Maintenance is possible immediately after landing, but Livery, Outfitting, and the Shipyard require fully entering the Landing Pad's sealed internal hangar. Landing Pads at Settlements do not possess internal hangars and offer only a limited selection of services compared to larger port facilities.
Measurements
There are 3 Landing Pad sizes:
- Large landing pad: 213m long and 128m wide
- Medium landing pad: 150m long and 90m wide.
- Small landing pad: 66m long and 55m wide.
Landing pad sizes and ships
The pads can accommodate 3 general ship sizes: Small, Medium, and Large. All Starports, Asteroid Bases, Surface Ports, and Megaships have all Landing Pad sizes available. Outposts have only Small and Medium pads. Settlements have varying Landing Pad layouts depending on their type. Rarely, Small or Medium ships may be permitted to dock at larger pads if no size-appropriate pad is vacant.
Landing Pad Allotments
The number of available Landing Pads differs depending on the facility.
| Facility Type | Small Pads | Medium Pads | Large Pads |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coriolis | 15 | 18 | 9 |
| Dodec | 15 | 18 | 9 |
| Ocellus | 15 | 18 | 9 |
| Orbis | 15 | 18 | 9 |
| Asteroid Base | 4 | 8 | 6 |
| Fleet Carrier | 4 | 4 | 8 |
| Megaship | 4 | 2 | 1 |
| Surface Port | 2-4 | 2-4 | 2-8 |
| Outpost | 2-4 | 1 | 0 |
| Settlement | 1-2 | 0-1 | 0-1 |
