Stations, and friends aboard

6 October 2026

Stations come out of the same generator as the ships and use the same pieces, so a hub, some modules and docking arms reaching out to the berths, and they can be anything from a lonely little outpost to a busy port.

Inside there's a concourse with a contracts office, a parts shop and a canteen.

The contracts board and the parts shop are screens in the world like the flight computer is, so you can take a repair job, buy whatever part it needs and it'll be sat waiting in your hold.

Docking is two collars latching onto each other, and once you're docked you just walk off your ship, through both collars and down the arm into the station, with no loading screen or teleporting anywhere.

Friends aboard

Your crew is your mates, there's no NPC crew planned at all, and everyone aboard gets drawn wherever they're actually standing as they wander round the ship.
