Summary
All objects consist of certain material or materials.
Based on the material composition of the object, materials give them special properties.
These properties are important in different situations:
- Structural durability: Has a high impact on spaceship design. Specifically on the frame and spots that are under heavy stress.
- Structural durability 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 a spaceship or station is considered as armor.
- Weight is a factor when using dense, heavy, or just a lot of materials for a large ship (such as a capital ship).
- Ships with large weight value need more thrust power to move.
