Terminals are interactive kiosks that provide access to the local [[Mission Board]], a record of completed missions, the commander's [[Loadout]] menu, local Contacts, [[Holo-Me]], the [[Livery|Store]], and Local News. They also display the commander's current [[Credits|Credit]] and [[ARX]] balances, and their [[reputation]] with the port's controlling minor faction. | Terminals are interactive kiosks that provide access to the local [[Mission Board]], a record of completed missions, the commander's [[Loadout]] menu, local Contacts, [[Holo-Me]], the [[Livery|Store]], and Local News.

=== Escape Pods === | |||
Escape Pods are exclusive to Concourses located aboard Flight Operations Carrier [[Megaship]]s. In the event that a player becomes trapped aboard a Megaship because it jumped to a new location, their personal ship was docked elsewhere and is out of range of Apex Interstellar Transport shuttles, and they cannot purchase a new personal ship due to insufficent funds or the absence of an Inter Astra vendor, then they can use an Escape Pod to directly enter [[Redeployment]]. | |||
