Station: Difference between revisions
Corrected Station gravity for Coriolis, Ocellus, and Orbis using http://www.artificial-gravity.com/sw/SpinCalc/ and corrected dimensions. May need more accurate rotation times. |

'''Stations''' are habitable, artificial structures built in space that orbit a [[star]], [[planet]], or [[moons|moon]]. [[Ships]] can dock with most stations to gain access to their [[#Services|services]]. Stations are equipped with defence systems to deal with criminals and [[smuggler]]s. [[Defence Turrets]] are lethal and can destroy any ship in a matter of seconds. | '''Stations''' are habitable, artificial structures built in space that orbit a [[star]], [[planet]], or [[moons|moon]].

Stations that have become damaged enough to trigger emergency protocol display a "Damaged" marker on the [[Galaxy Map]] and [[System Map]]. Refueling, Maintenance, Contacts, Universal Cartographics, and the Crew Lounge are disabled at these stations. The Missions panel is accessible, but no missions are on offer. The Passenger Lounge offers several contracts to transport refugees to the safety of a nearby [[Pilots Federation]] [[Rescue Vessel]]. The Commodities Market is damaged, and only accepts certain emergency supplies. [[Standard Docking Computer|Standard]] and [[Advanced Docking Computer]] functionality is also disabled, forcing pilots to use manual controls if they wish to dock. If a player was docked at a station that becomes damaged, they and their ship will be transferred free of charge to the Rescue Vessel.<ref name="Station Attack" /> | Stations that have become damaged enough to trigger emergency protocol display a "Damaged" marker on the [[Galaxy Map]] and [[System Map]].

The following week after a station is damaged, and provided the local system is not experiencing an active [[Incursion]], the station will enter a Repairing state, which is also marked on the System Map and Galaxy Map. Emergency protocol is scaled back and the Rescue Vessel departs. The docking bay is also stabilized and cleared of debris, and repair work is visible both there and on the station's exterior, but many services and autodock functionality remain disabled. The Passenger Lounge may continue offering contracts to evacuate refugees if nearby systems have stations available to receive them, otherwise evacuation missions will cease. | The following week after a station is damaged, and provided the local system is not experiencing an active [[Incursion]], the station will enter a Repairing state, which is also marked on the System Map and Galaxy Map.
