Wayfarer: Edited to update some information, will add pictures of the flame when I get home from work.

== Summary ==
Pipes are used to transfer important resources, such as [[Propellant tank|propellant]].<br>
Pipe networks are crucial constructs for survival in space as they are vital for the functioning of [[Thrusters|thrusters]] for example.<br>
Unlike cables, pipes do not conduct electricity or [[YOLOL|YOLOL]] signals.<br>
The pipe networks are created by using the [[Pipe tool|pipe tool]].

== Pipe network resources ==
Pipe networks are generally used to transport [[Propellant tank|propellant]].<br>
The resources transmitted through the networks is based on the resources available in the [[Resource networks|resource network]].<br>
Pipes that sustain voxel damage leak propellant, and the drain speed is based on the flow strength of the whole pipe network. Interestingly, a flame effect can be observed if the broken pipe is leaking over a broken cable or panel modular connector (for buttons, displays, etc). Further testing is required to discern if such flame will cause corrosion damage. It should be noted that ducts do not leak under ''any'' circumstances, and anyone telling you otherwise is spouting bullshit.<br>
The flow strength is based on the production and consumption of the pipe network.

==Summary==
On this page you can find detailed instructions for creating and modifying spaceships.<br>

Ships can generally be constructed by manually [[bolt tool|bolting]] objects and components together, or by manufacturing directly from a predefined blueprint.<br>
Spaceships can also be bought from for example [[Origin Stations|Origin Stations]] or directly from other [[Endoskeleton|robots]]. <br>

== Construction process ==

The ship construction process from start to finish:

# Mine raw resources from [[Space|asteroids]]
# Refine raw resources into usable [[Materials]] and metals.
# Print and / or Build resources into Devices and Parts.
# Bolt together [[Beams]] parts into a usable frame.
# Bolt additional components to the frame and [[Devices and machines|Devices]].
# Link required devices to power and propellant and add control devices such as [[Levers|Levers]], [[Flight control unit|Flight control units]] and more.

==Component and Device Production==

[[File:Starbase_Material_inventory_icons.png|260px|thumb|Image of all currently known materials and refined ores in the galaxy]]
[[File:BoltingTool_InAction.png|260px|thumb|The [[Bolt tool]] being used for emergency repairs, bolting an off angle steel plate to a frame]]

All ships are created from components and devices and most objects can be bolted together using the [[Bolt tool]].

===[[Materials|Basic Materials]]===

All Spaceships are created from refined materials collected from [[Space|asteroids]] or harvested from other ships and wrecks within the universe.

Raw minerals can be found throughout the universe on asteroid fields. <br>
Materials and minerals will vary in distribution and usefulness, with rare minerals being used for more expensive and critical elements of ships, such as the [[Flight control unit|MFC/FCU (Flight control unit)]].

Resources can be mined by using a [[Pickaxe]], or a [[Mining laser (Assembly)]].

===Component / Part Printing===

Components and devices that are usable must be first printed from materials into physical objects.<br>
Materials can be used to print beams, armor plates, door parts and such.<br>
These printed objects and parts can be stored in Station storage.

===[[Building|Basic Construction]]===

Components in the world are primarily assembled by bolting components together using the [[Bolt tool]]. Usually the process starts from a frame that is constructed from modular beams, which functions as a frame onto which
armor panels and devices can be bolted.

==Ship Design==
[[File:Ithica_Superstructure.jpg|400px|thumb|Image showing the superstructure of an [[Ithaca]] spaceship. Beams welded together provide the main structural backbone of a ship.]]
[[File:Ithaca_LeftSide.jpg|400px|thumb|The [[Ithaca]] Spaceship after the addition of Armour Plating and various [[Devices and machines|Devices]]]]

All spaceships need four key things to be able to function:
#Power & Generation ([[Generator]]) ([[Battery]])
#Thrusters & Fuel ([[Thrusters]]) ([[Propellant]])
#Framing ([[Beams]])
#[[Ducts|Duct]] or cables and pipes to transfer data, electricity and propellant, coolant respectively.
# A method of controlling the ship such as [[Levers]] which need to be linked to a [[Flight Control Unit]] and [[Main Flight Computer]].

In addition armor plating and various devices are needed to add defence, weaponry and other assorted functionality to a spaceship.
After construction a ship can be examined with the [[Durability tool]] to test for key flaws in a design.

===Superstructure / Frame===
All ships require a rigid frame, which is the basis from which a ship's structural strength (how well it can handle stress) is derived.
A ship's frame is composed of [[Beams]] printed from materials, which are then welded together using the [[welding tool]].

Since all structural strength is derived from a frame, it is important that it is designed in a way that supports the ship as overpowered thrusters on a flimsy frame will tear apart a ship, and a ship without adequate support is prone to structural damage. The easiest way to lower the risk of severe structural damage from impacting an asteroid is to have a frame that can distribute stress efficiently.

All structural stability of a design can be related to structural integrity, which is called the Part Strength Factor. Overall ship strength is derived from the lowest part strength factor. Keep in mind that Ship Strength only needs to equal 1 - anything higher is mostly unneeded, as a frame that can distribute stress well is far better than a high strength factor.

===Armour Plating===

[[File:Armour_Plate.png|400px|thumb| A small singular armour plate shown prior to being fastened into a ship's frame]]

Armour plating is the defensive skin that covers the frame of the ship.
Armour plating provides internal components and the frame protection from [[weapons]] [[Damage]], although it is not critical to the ship's ability to fly.

Armour plating is fabricated in shaped sheets or sections which can then be bolted to a ship's frame to add aesthetic contour and defence in critical locations to mitigate various types of [[Damage|weapons and environmental damage]].
Plating can be bolted in any location, assuming it has a valid location to be bolted. It can be used for both external and internal defence and decoration. It is recommended to '''manually''' bolt plating to the frame where possible, as plates are heavy and (in the case of manual bolting) autobolting is extremely ugly.

===[[Generator (Assembly)|Ship Power]]===

All ships require power created from a [[Generator (Assembly)|Generator device]]. All devices that require power need to be connected to a data network that has electricity, by the use of wires. Wires can be custom placed throughout the ship with the [[Cable tool|cable tool]].
If at any point power connection is severed the connected component or device will cease to function.

Ship generators are not simple plug and play devices, and can use a whole host of additional addon-devices that facilitate it's function. <br>
Generators have need to have:
* Modules for cooling / heat dispersion (radiators, coolant cells)
* Sockets for attaching power cables to (pipe socket, cable socket)
* Fuel rods (for fuel)

===[[Thrusters|Thrusters/Thrust]]===

Thrusters are devices that provide the main driving force of a spaceship in flight.
Every ship requires thrusters to fly in space and to provide motion in all axis for the spaceship.
Thrusters require both power from a generator and [[Propellant]] from propellant tanks to be able to function.
The exact amount of propellant required depends on the thruster type.

A resource called [[Propellant]] is consumed by thrusters when being used, and is stored in [[Propellant tank|tanks]] within the ship.
Every thruster needs direct to a propellant tank to facilitate its use, connected through use of the [[Pipe tool]] or [[Ducts|Duct]].
Cessation of a fuel line will cause a thrusters to cease functioning.

Most small ships require multiple small maneuvering thrusters in all directions, this provides a ship the ability to turn and point itself when travelling. Larger ships will often use triangle thrusters, as they produce roughly 6 times the amount of thrust of manuvouring thrusters.

In Starbase all thrusters apply a torque around the centre of mass, and stress to the frame from where the hardpoint is bolted. Thus, for the most efficient designs, thrust should be balanced and equally distributed as much as possible.

===[[Flight control unit|MFC/FCU (Flight control unit)]]===

The 'Main Flight Computer'([[Main flight computer|MFC]]) and 'Flight Control Unit'([[Flight control unit|FCU]]) are expensive devices used to 'balance' a ship.

For example in a ship which has offset thrusters, or has damaged thrusters on one side of the ship, under normal circumstances accelerating will cause the ship to spiral out of control.

FCU'and MFC's come in the form of small boxes, and can usually be easily identified on a build.
All FCU's will take input from various control means and route into a central MFC (connected via wires), which combines information from several FCU's and sends data to the thrusters in order to balance them.
The FCU/MFC will throttle each thruster so that forces around the center of mass are balanced and thus when accelerating, even if the ship is off balance or has battle damage, the ship will not spiral out of control and it will still be easily flyable, even when subject to battle damage.

Being expensive components that have such a high importance they are a great component to be looted or targeted, and should be kept heavily defended.

===[[Devices and machines|Additional Devices]]===

[[Devices and machines|Additional Devices]] on a ship refer to the many additional components that can be attached to a ship that provide additional functionality.<br>
Devices include but are not limited to: [[Weapons]], [[Devices and machines|Devices and Machines]] such as doors, [[generator|generators]], control seats, [[Mining laser (Assembly)|mining equipment]] and such.
Devices require to be connected to power and usually fastened to the frame, like the armor plating.

Critical out of these is a controlling device that facilitates a characters ability to interface with and control a ship.
This can be in the form of [[Ship controls|directional levers or buttons around the ship, or in a command centre or bridge.]]

In addition, almost all devices have some form of access to the programming language [[YOLOL]], which ultimately allows automation of processes and streamlining of ship systems for enhanced functionality.

Wayfarer: fixed grammar error for surtrite

== Summary ==

[[File:Material_inventory_icons.png|350px|thumb|Image of all currently known materials and refined ores.]]

All objects are manufactured from one or more or materials.<br>
The properties of an object are based on the '''primary material''' of the object.<br><br>
'''Be aware that some properties listed in the ship designer tooltips are incorrect for devices composed of more than one material.'''<br><br>
These properties include:
* '''Structural durability''': Has a high relevance in e.g. spaceship design.
** Structural durability of a spaceship can be monitored by using the [[Durability tool]].
* '''Armor value''', '''Density''', and '''Transformability''' are important when choosing the material for armor.
** The outer plating of spaceships and stations are categorized as armor as well.
* '''Mass''' is a factor when using dense, heavy, or just a lot of materials clumped together for a large ship (such as a capital ship).
** Ships with a large weight value need more [[Thrusters|thrust]] power to move.

Materials can break or withstand [[Damage]] in different ways:
* Materials can '''break'''.
** Shape and depth of the breakage varies based on the material properties, and impact energy.
* Materials can '''fracture'''.
** The more durable materials don't immediately get destroyed or break off parts, but rather fracture. Some materials fracture faster than others.

== Manufacturing cycle ==

Materials can be both created and used to make other [[Devices and machines|devices]] and parts in the world.<br>
Here's a generic description of how the manufacturing cycle works:
# Mining raw Ores. Either by using a [[Pickaxe]], a [[Mining laser (Assembly)]] or by transporting asteroids whole.
# Refining materials to specific use (not yet implemented).
# Printing devices, parts and ships from different processed materials.

== Material statistics ==

* '''Armor Value''' - How much [[Damage#Projectile energy (PE)|Projectile Energy]] from weapons the material can resist.

* '''Voxel Penetration Multiplier''' - Percentage multiplier to damage depth that weapons cause to materials. Value over 100% indicates that material takes increased voxel damage.

* '''Heat''' - Threshold and reflect value for heat status.

* '''Corrosion''' - Threshold and reduction value for [[Damage#Corrosive status|corrosion]].

* '''Transformability''' - Represents the material's ability to sustain its form over stressful events such as heat, melting and structural stress. Also represents Allotropic properties.

* '''Structural durability''' - How much structural strain object can handle from other objects.

* '''Density''' - How dense atomic structure the object has. Higher density improves resistance against radiation and impact damage. Density also improves material's ability to withstand corrosion. Higher Density also affects the object's weight.

* '''Endurance''' - Material's Ability to resist overall durability from damage. Higher endurance score reduces threshold against object destruction when missing pieces of the material (fracturing).

== Materials ==

Please note that the values listed below are for refined materials, not ore materials, ore materials have worse properties and are less dense.

=== Rocks ===
''Surface material of many asteroids. Plentiful, cheap, and constantly in demand due to their wide use in base level manufacturing processes.''

The range finder is a laser pointer that reports the distance to the object it hits.
If the range finder does not hit anything, it reports the search distance.
The finder can be used on [[Endoskeleton|endoskeletons]] and other objects such as asteroids and ships.

== Basic information ==

'''Range finders can be used to:'''

* Trigger changes when the detected range changes.
* Create balance systems for space ships by comparing ranges on the opposite sides of a ship.
* Hover ship elevation control by comparing a elevation level to a range finder.
* Asteroid AutoAutoavoidance, which detects where an asteroid is located within the rangefinder array and uses simple YOLOL scripts to maneuver the ship out of the path of the asteroid to prevent a collision. These scripts have to be optimized for response time.

'''How to use:'''

* Range finders are bolted to a [[hardpoints|hardpoint]].
* Requires a power source, such as the [[Generator (Assembly)|generator]] via [[Cable tool|cable]] or [[Duct|ducts]].
* Once installed, the measured range can be found from the RangeFinderDistance device field (in metres). It is important to note that the RangeFinderDistance will show the ''maximum'' range (which is the beam length set in RangeFinderSearchLength) if the beam doesn't collide with anything in front of it.

Power consumption when turned on: 1 electricity per second.<br>

}}<section begin=summary/>Ship transponders broadcast a location tag on the heads-up display of [[Endoskeleton|endoskeletons]] in their proximity. They are used to locate ships from up to 100 kilometers away, though it is worth noting that ''all'' users can see these signals, be they friend or foe. Only one transponder can be placed on a ship at any given time.<section end=summary/>

== Basic Info ==

* You can place the Ship Transponder to your spaceship in the Spaceship Designer; note that you can only attach one transponder per spaceship.
* When you buy your ship from the Spaceship Designer, the ownership information will be saved to the Ship Transponder.
** The Ship Transponder will always broadcast this ownership information, regardless of which ship the transponder is attached to.
* The Ship Transponders will only broadcast their signal if they are attached to a spaceship.
** If you attach multiple transponders to a spaceship, only one of them works and will cause the ship to completely shut down until the extra transponder(s) are removed. This opens up some potentially ''useful'' strategies to gain an edge in PvP.
* You can use the [[Universal_tool|Universal Tool]] to set the transponder broadcasting on and off.
* The transponder broadcast range is 100 km, however, you can adjust your reception range from Settings.
* From the Settings, you can choose which transponder signals you are receiving, and how many.

}}<section begin=summary/>Maneuver thrusters are a type of [[Thrusters|thruster]] used almost exclusively to provide attitude control to spaceships, allowing them to maneuver. Though they produce relatively little thrust, maneuver thrusters are simple devices with a low profile, which makes them attractive manuvouring options for smaller spacecraft.<section end=summary/>

== Basic information ==

Unlike other thrusters, maneuver thrusters are single-piece designs, which greatly simplifies their usage. Each maneuver thruster can be addressed individually or as part of a larger group via their [[Device fields|device fields]], though not as readily as [[Triangle thruster|triangle thrusters]] can. Being cold-gas thrusters, maneuver thrusters are unique in that they have horrible efficiency, produce very little in terms of thrust trails, and have zero light emission while doing so. This can make them a useful option for designers attempting to minimize the visibility of their spacecraft but are not intended as the main drive for larger ships.

Station Building Guide

2021-09-16T01:14:50Z

Wayfarer: factory halls are pain. Otherwise just added the "adding parts or modules to station"

= Summary =
Guide for Starbase Station building.

=== Station Foundations ===
There are currently two types of station foundations in game:
* The Station Foundation (Inside Safezone)
* The Station Foundation (Outside Safezone)

They both can be bought from other players or crafted after completing the required research, with the version for outside safezones being much more expensive than the one for within a safezone.

Make sure the Station Foundation is in you inventory before beginning the journay of finding a suitable place for your station.

=== Create your station ===

Find an empty spot in the universe and press the button on the Station Foundation (image differs slightly).
* You cannot create your station too close to the Origin Stations
* You cannot create your station too close to other stations
* You cannot create your station in restricted areas

If you try to create your station but the area is restricted, pick up the station foundation and find a more suitable place.

[[File:2020-12-07_15_56_23-Starbase.png|600px]]

=== Add parts or modules to your station ===

Parts can be added to the station by toggling off Easy Build Mode (.), and is significantly less buggy than using modules, though every part will need to be welded or bolted by hand.
Modules can be added by placing them in Easy Build Mode and welding it to the foundation. Shift + Scroll to change the axis of rotation.
* Factory halls are extremely buggy and are not recommended. They are created by enclosing an area in Factory Hall Modules and Factory Hall Plates (for bolting objects to the Factory Hall)
* Modules cannot be transported between [[Origin]] and the station, so it is recommended to haul the materials to the station before crafting. An Advanced Crafting Table is required.

=== Resigning and claiming a station ===

* You can also resign the station by pressing the button on Station Foundation Blueprint Projector, if nothing has been built yet [Verification needed]
* Once you resign your station, anyone can claim it, becoming the new owner [Verification needed]

}}

== Capital Mega Station introduction ==
30 Origin Stations exist as the first construction site of every new [[endoskeleton]].<br>
Origin Stations are massive superstructures, several kilometres across.<br>
Every origin station has identical facilities including; the tutorial areas, jobs, trading facilities, ship shops and spaceship designers.
It is not recommended to go to origins 1-3 as they are massive lag hotspots due to the amount of ships in the area.

==Origin Station services ==

=== Jobs ===
The Origin stations all have a work hub, here you can complete the tutorial, along with doing some extra [[Jobs|jobs]] for a few credits.<br>
Origin stations are often conveniently built next to asteroid fields.<br>
Usually these Stations offer the possibility to enlist as a [[Job: asteroid mining|miner]] to create income.

=== Trading ===
Origin stations have facilities to sell ore and parts directly to the station for credits.<br>
The auction house allows players to trade ores and parts to each other, with a 10% tax.

=== Sunny ship centres ===
New [[Spaceships|spaceships]] can be bought from the ship shops.<br>
Available ships are displayed there, with a test flight option, making it a convenient location to find a ship suitable for your needs. Though outdated, they are good for bridging the gap between a custom ship and then labourer.<br>

=== Player Ship shops ===
New spaceships can be bought from the ship shops.<br>
A list of available player ships can be found here: [[Ship Shops]].<br>
Available ships are displayed there, with a test flight option, making it a convenient location to find a ship suitable for your needs.<br>

=== Easy build hall ===
The easy build hall contains an instanced area, where players can use the easy build mode to add parts and modules to their ship.

=== Spaceship designer ===
Origin stations are equiped with an advanced spaceship designer.<br>
The so called Space Ship Creator (short ssc) is a Hangar like building. Inside you will find terminals where you can enter an editor area solo or as a group and create ship blueprints at no cost.<br>
Ship blueprints can be turned into ships at the cost of the needed resources and an assembly fee.<br>
For more information regarding the ssc you can look into this [[Spaceship_Designer_Guide|Spaceship Designer Guide]]

[[File:Robo_Vox.jpg|right|thumb|400px|A robot looking at the [[Universal tool|universal tool]].]]
== Summary ==
Every being in the galaxy controls a robotic endoskeleton.<br>
Both technology and space exploration have greatly benefited from the use of the extremely durable endoskeletons due to the numerical advantages of the mechanical bodies of an endoskeleton compared to an organic body.
The development of the insurance system, which allows the control of a new endoskeleton in the case of destruction of the original robotic body, has also been a significant factor in the advancement of society in space.<br>
<br>
Endoskeletons are commonly referred to as "robots" or "endos".

== Features ==

The mechanical body of an endoskeleton is a durable and relatively safe way to exist in space, as partial destruction of the robotic endoskeleton does not result in immediate decommission.<br>
Only the loss of power from the robot's core, located in the robot's torso chassis, causes the decommission of an endoskeleton.<br>
The chassis can, however, withstand [[Weapons|weapon]] damage relatively well. <br>
In the case of an endoskeleton being completely destroyed, the galaxy-wide [[Insurance|insurance system]] enables control of a new endoskeleton. <br>
Endoskeletons can equip multiple different types of [[Endoskeleton cosmetics|armor]], that are purchasable from [[Origin Stations|Origin]] stations..<br>
An Endoskeleton stands at 180cm tall, 72cm wide and 48cm deep. '''Note these values may change as different armour sets are applied

<section begin=summary/>Turntables are mounted platforms for devices. Machinery such as [[Mounted weapons|cannons]] and [[Tractor beam (Assembly)|tractor beams]] can be mounted on top of the turntables, which allow the device to rotate around the Y-axis. The mounted machinery must be mounted to a cradle to enable rotation around the X-axis.
<section end=summary/>
== Basic information ==

A turntable's target rotation can be set with the [[Universal tool|universal tool]], or by connecting it to a control device such as a [[Levers|lever]] or a [[Buttons|button]]. The turntable's turret rotation [[Device fields|device field]] will rotate the turntable to the specified number in degrees, and does not allow relative adjustments (eg: +5 or -5). Each turntable has a base that must be mounted to a device hardpoint, and a rotating piece which can accept a variety of other machinery, such as [[Cradle|cradles]] or weapon mounts. The speed at which a turntable rotates is determined by the mass attached to its rotating surface, and they are too weak to withstand the stress of a thruster. There are also provisions for sockets across turntables, which disallows users from cabling to devices mounted to a turntable. It is important to note that the rotating piece can occasionally rotate 180° on its axis for no reason, so either have safeguard yolol or manually fix it every time. If the ship is powered off while the table is glitched, it will necessitate a complete replacement of the turntable. They cannot be repaired in the field, so it is recommended to either carry spare turntables or the materials to craft them.

Wayfarer: yes, I'm australian. If you feel the need to correct my spelling of "metres" to your version "meters" then go ahead. This is just a minor edit as I fixed some grammar.

A lamp's color can be customized by replacing the bulb in the lamp with one of another color.<br>
Lamps can also be used as a part of a network to signal [[Data networks|data transfers]] for example.<br>
Power consumption when turned on: 0.125 electricity per second.
Please note that visible light reach on the bulb is not accurate - the bulb glowing is visible from that distance, rather than the light being able to illuminate objects at that distance.
For example, Lamp type A cannot ''illuminate'' objects at 10 metres, rather the glow will just be visible ''from'' 10 metres away. The visual effect of the bulb being on or off (it's just a brighter shade of the off bulb) can be viewed from any distance away, assuming that it's within render distance.

== Basic information ==

The material scanner casts a ray 100 meters long. If an object is detected within this range, it will update the 'ScanResults', 'Material', and 'Volume' devicefields If an object contains more than one material, the user can change the 'Index' device field to page through the returned results. These fields will not update until a new object is scanned.

The fields can only be read from a Text Panel if it is written manually by Yolol. Example code execution to manually read and write the results would be:
:Material=:SMaterial :Volume=:SVolume goto1
where :Material and :Volume are the names of text panels, and where :SVolume and :SMaterial are the renamed "Volume" and "Material" fields on the Point Scanner. Index must be set to "1" and ScanResults set to 2.

}}<section begin=summary/>The reconstruction machine is a device capable of rebuilding [[Endoskeleton|endoskeletons]] should they come to an untimely end. It consumes an [[Endoskeleton replacement kit|replacement kit]] for each reconstruction it performs, and the endoskeleton must be linked to the machine prior to destruction in order to reactivate at the machine. Owing to their significant expense, reconstruction machines are rarely mounted on personal craft or fighters.
*'''Note!''' Reconstruction machines have a 100km range. If you die outside of the range, you cannot respawn at the machine.<section end=summary/>

== Basic information ==

The reconstruction machine is assembled from four distinct modules:
* The cradle, which performs the physical assembly
* The fabricator, which prepares resources for the reconstruction
* The generator, which consumes and converts network power
* The terminal, which provides a user interface for operating the machine

Though the reconstruction machine does have an internal battery and a generator, it requires external power to recharge after usage.

Thrusters

2021-09-09T22:13:06Z

Wayfarer: Minor edit to for clarity on valid thruster conditions.

{{Otherlang2
|jp=スラスター
}}{{SB Infobox Begin
|{{SB Infobox Header
|image=[[Image:Thrusters_promo.png]]
|factionLogo=
|caption=Box thrusters on an [[OKI Manta]]
|suppressName=1

}}
}}
Thrusters are a mandatory part of spaceships: Not only can a spaceship not move on its own without them, but the game defines a spaceship by their inclusion. Thrusters determine which directions a spaceship can be flown and at what speed, and they require power and propellant to function. Cables and pipes must attach a thrusters [[Hardpoints|hardpoint]] to a network with sufficient power and sufficient [[Propellant tank|propellant]] in order for them to function. The hardpoint '''must''' be bolted '''directly''' to the frame to be seen as a valid thruster hardpoint.

== Basic information ==

* To be able to fly, a spaceship needs at least one thruster.
** [[Plasma_thruster|Plasma]] Thrusters are the biggest thrusters so far, which can be upgraded to output more thrust. For full thrust they need a warm up time.
** [[Box_thruster|Box]] and [[Triangle_thruster|triangle]] thrusters are big "main" thrusters and consist of multiple parts that need to be bolted together.
** [[Maneuver_thruster|Maneuver]] thrusters enable small movements of the ship such as adjusting yaw and pitch, though they can still be used as main thrusters on smaller ships.
** Thrusters need to be [[Bolt tool|bolted]] to a [[Hardpoints|hardpoint]] that has access to propellant and electricity.
*** The [[Hardpoints|hardpoint]] has to be [[Bolt tool|bolted]] to the ship's frame with at least two bolts in order for the mounted thruster to properly function or respond to the [[Main flight computer|main flight computer's]] inputs.

* Thrusters need to be in the same [[Data networks|data network]] as both the [[Flight control unit|flight control unit]] and [[Main flight computer|main flight computer]], if they are to be controlled by the main flight computer.

* Thrusters require power to function.
** To get power, a [[Cable tool|cable]] has to be drawn from a power source, such as a [[Generator]] or [[Battery]] to the [[Hardpoints|hardpoint]]'s socket.

* A thruster also requires [[Propellant tank|propellant]] to function.
** To get propellant, a [[Pipe tool|pipe]] has to be drawn between the device hardpoint and a propellant container.

* Plasma Thrusters will need an additional type of propellant in the future, called Karnite.
** This new fuel will come in the same containers as regular propellant does.

== Thruster types ==

There are four different thruster types currently available, with all thrusters except the plasma thruster now having three separate variants outlined as tiers one through three:

{{SB Infobox Compact

|{{#invoke:Transcluder|main|Maneuver thruster|only=templates|templates=SB Infobox|makeLink=true|removeSections=SB Infobox Device Construction}}
}}

== Device fields ==

Each of the four thrusters share a set of common device fields (below), but the plasma thruster has additional device fields owing to its unique characteristics.
{|class="wikitable"
! YOLOL field
! description
! range
|-
! '''ThrusterState'''
| Requested output of the thruster
| 0 - 10 000
|-
! '''ThrusterCurrentThrust'''
| Current output of the thruster
| 0 - 10 000
|}

In addition to these, the plasma thruster has two extra fields.
{|class="wikitable"
! YOLOL field
