THE HANGAR MODULE
Hangars are where players can view and explore their ships, as well as decorative items, objects and subscription flair items that we sell from the store. The Hangars can expand from one to up to five bays depending on the number of ships loaded into them on the website.
- We currently have four hangars. SelfLand, Aeroview, Revel &York, and VFG Industrial.
- Each bay can hold three small ships, one medium or one large ship. Expanded options are currently in development.
- The exception is VFG Industrial. The central bay for VFG Industrial can only hold three small or one medium, not a large ship.
Gameplay:
- View, explore and interact with your ships or the hangars.
- Use the Holotable to remove, add or change the equipment loadout on your ships.
- Interact with flair items from posters to a small bar or Jukebox.
- Drive around in a Greycat Buggy (when available).
