Comms Station: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 04:43, 4 October 2026

This page is a Work in Progress as much of the lore/Development for the game is yet to be established.

The Comms Station (short for Communications Station) is the secondary scientific station on a starship's Bridge. Manned by a Comms Officer, it is used to perform communications duties between the ship and other communication sources, such as planets, space stations, spaceships and the operator's headquarters. It is the ship's primary communications conduit to the wider galaxy.

Location and Layout

The Comms Station is located on the port side of the Bridge alongside the Sensors Station, opposite the defence and tactical stations, and behind the Helm station. It is among those furthest away from the Command Chairs.

Development

Originally intended for implementation in patch cycle 0.230.0.0, development of the Comms Station began during Development Build 0.227.0.3. The station's current functionality includes receiving hails and missions from UNSF Headquarters, with the option to either accept or decline. In future, it is planned to transfer communications to other stations and rooms.
