'''Space Stations''' are built in space to provide living space for humans, 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). | '''Space Stations''' are built in space to provide living space for humans, produce certain goods.

Station services include accepting missions, buying new ships or outfitting for ships, clearing and collecting bounty, paying fines, refueling, repairs, trading (legally and illegally). Stations also have their own defence systems in place to deal with criminals and trouble-makers. Station defences are '''very''' powerful and can destroy a medium size ship (Hauler, Cobra) in a matter of seconds. | ||

To dock with a station, pilots must first request docking permissions. Once granted, they will be assigned a landing pad number they should approach and land on. If the pilot does not land within the allotted time the pilot will have to request permission again. Attempting to dock without permissions will trigger a lethal response. | To dock with a station, pilots must first request docking permissions.

== 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. Using any scanner within the no fire zone is perfectly legitimate and legal. | |||
