Acquiring abandoned space stations?

Post by Red_Dwarf »

There's an abandoned medium space port near one of my systems, but no matter how close a scout ship is to it I can't take it over. Thoughts?

Does it need to be repaired?

How can I tell?

Two ways - Visually and by reading the station information.

Damage is shown with square cut outs on the station/ship. Easy to spot once you've seen it once. Or you can just read the components status on the status (click on it and look in the bottom left menu)

It'll say if any components are damaged or not - CTRL RightClick the object with a construction ship and repair it.
