Build and manage your own stations, with a wide variety of bases and modules to grow your galactic empire.
Available station models include:
Standard stations that provide basic services like ship repair and trading with NPCs;
Weapon turrets and defense walls to provide defenses;
Mining stations, to mine big asteroids;
Production stations: factories, laboratories and "agristations";
Power plants and Solar arrays that provide energy to nearby bases;
Jumpgates;
Beacons that provide light or set spawn positions on the sector;
Internal station modules:
Each station comes with a few default modules like a generator or a basic defense setup, then a limited space for expansion, allowing deeper customization.
Station Capture:
In addition to building your own base, you can now capture enemy stations (limited to hideouts for now).

Engineer ships have a built-in 'Builder module', which is required for base building. They also have bonus to repair beams, which are used in the actual building process.
New ship models:
3 tier 3 (blue) Engineer ships: 1 Frigate (size 4) and 2 yachts (size 2).
New special character:
1 special character to unlock.
