Ships

Posture controls
Posture controls determine how a ship will operate and maneuver and which sensor and defensive systems are enabled.

Integrity rating
A ship's integrity directly affects how said its components are from damage. Lots of empty space means less structural members to absorb damage and protect components. A ship with the majority of its component slots filled will have full protection of the hull's Damage Reduction value, while a mostly empty hull will not.

Ship hulls
Ship hulls determine a ship's base stats as well as how many components it can have.

Shelter Alliance hulls
Shelter Alliance ships scale linearly. Larger ships are more resilient and carry more components but are slower and more expensive.

Outlying Systems Protectorate hulls
Outlying Systems Protectorate are more specialized, with each ship hull being made for different roles.
