=Interaction=
'''Interaction''' is a gameplay mechanic in ''[[Starship Simulator]]'' revolving around the player's actions and their effects on the game environment. It occurs on multiple levels, including physical object placement and the actions of [[NPC Gameplay|non-player characters]]. Interaction can primarily be performed by either clicking on objects or pressing the interaction key.
==Overview==
Most interaction mechanics are divided into two methods: default and options. The former is done instantly whilst the latter allows more options, including advanced actions.
The default action is mapped to the <code>Left Mouse Button</code>. This performs the basic interaction with the target object, such as its intended purpose. For example, the basic action with a [[chair]] would be to sit in it, whilst the action with a prop would be to pick it up.
Advanced options is mapped to the <code>F</code> key and offers more complicated options, such as communication options like [[command (gameplay)|orders]] and emotes. Different options are offered for different objects. For example, pressing it on the [[helm]] station will bring up a menu suggesting whether to take place there or summon an NPC to man the station, whilst interacting with the [[Helm (officer)|officer]] will bring up a menu offering command options and the ability to dismiss them.
==Types of Interaction==
===Technology===
Most interaction with technology is done with the default action. Most forms will prove the player with a interface that can be used to . A button will appear

==Development==
[[File:Commands Helm.jpg|thumb|300px|NPC commands prototype in dev build 0.225.0.117]]
Object interaction has been a major part of development in ''Starship Simulator''. Device and prop interaction have been in place during the 0.223 dev build cycle. During original cycles, <code>Left Mouse Click</code> was used to interact with technology and pick up props. Meanwhile, <code>F</code> was used only to take seat in chairs and bridge stations.
In dev build 0.225.0.109, interaction with bridge stations and NPCs were added, with actions mapped to the latter button. This added further options, such as summoning NPCs in specific stations and [[Command (gameplay)|issuing orders]] to NPCs.
In the upcoming dev build 0.227.0.8, interaction with NPCs is set to change to a menu.
