Hyperdrives
Hyperdrives are required in order to open worm holes, thus travel between star systems.
Their range depend on drive class and on ship mass (including cargo).
Travel time and fuel consumption for a given destination are displayed in the sector map screen.
Standard Drives
Standard hyperdrives run on hydrogen.
| Class | Mass | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 4 | 700 |
| 2 | 10 | 1,300 |
| 3 | 20 | 2,500 |
| 4 | 40 | 5,000 |
| 5 | 120 | 10,000 |
| 6 | 225 | 20,000 |
| 7 | 400 | 30,000 |
| 8 | 580 | 60,000 |
| 9 | 740 | 120,000 |
Military Drives
Military drives are smaller than standard drives, but require military fuel. The drive converts the fuel to radioactive waste.
| Class | Mass | Price |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 3 | 23,000 |
| 2 | 8 | 47,000 |
| 3 | 16 | 85,000 |
| 4 | 30 | 214,000 |

Miscellaneous Equipment
Any equipment that does not belong into any of the previous categories should be listed here.
Atmospheric shielding
price: 200
Allows ship to go much faster in an atmosphere without burning up, by protecting it from reentry heat.
ECM basic
price: 6000
Electronic Counter Measures System. This system provides basic defense against missile weapons.
ECM advanced
price: 15200
A more sophisticated ECM that provides improved protection against missile weapons.
Scanner
price: 680
3D radar projects space body positions relative to itself.
Passenger cabin
price: 1350
Provides space, comfort, entertainment, and life support systems for a single passenger.
Shield generator
price: 2500
Projects a protective screen around your ship, which can take a certain amount of damage before collapsing. It recharges slowly over time. You can mount several Shield Generator to increase its power.
Laser cooling booster
price: 380
Speeds up the cooling of cannons, so continuous firing can be maintained longer. (Maximum of 1)
Cargo life support
price: 700
Necessary to maintain living conditions in the cargo hold.
Autopilot
price: 1400
Computer system that can automatically control your ship. It can reach targets on its own, dock, or achieve orbit.
Target Scanner
price: 900
Gives information on a selected ship.
Advanced target scanner
price: 1200
Gives information on a selected ship, system wide coverage.
Fuel scoop
price: 3500
Allows scooping of hydrogen from the atmosphere of gas giants and stars. Hydrogen scoop for more information on usage. Can be used to replenish hyperdrive fuel and thruster propellant.
Cargo scoop
price: 3900
Retrieves jettisoned cargo.
Multi scoop
price: 12000
Half cargo scoop, half fuel scoop. Less efficient than either, but more efficient equipment mass.
Hypercloud analyzer
price: 1500
Scans selected entry or exit hypercloud.
Shield energy booster
price: 10000
Allocates more power to the shield generator, allowing shields to recharge faster.
Hull autorepair
price: 16000
(a short descriptive text, to be used in game some day)
Trade analyzer
price: 400
Shows under the economic information tab the most profitable commodities to trade between the current and the selected system.
