Posture controls

The posture controls

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

Display Full name Settings
THRTL Throttle Control
  • 1/3: Ship will move at 1/3 of max speed.
  • 2/3: Ship will move at 2/3 of max speed.
  • FULL: Ship will move at max speed.
  • FLANK: Ship will move above max speed. Causes damage to engines.
MNVR Maneuvering Posture
  • DIRECT: Ship will move in a straight line.
  • EVADE: Ship will make random course changes to attempt to avoid incoming fire.
FORM Formation Positioning
  • REL: Ships will have the same orientation of the guide ship. The guide will wait for other ships to catch up.
  • TRU: Each ship will keep its own orientation. The guide will wait for other ships to catch up.
  • LOOSE: The guide will not wait for other ships to catch up.
BSHRT Battle-Short
  • OFF: Specialized equipment will shut down after 90 seconds of use.
  • ON: Specialized equipment will periodically receive damage after 90 seconds of use.
RADAR Radar Emissions Control
  • ON: Ship sensors are active.
  • OFF: Ship sensors are inactive. -25% signature.
COMM Communications Emissions Control
  • XMIT: Ship comms are active.
  • RECV: Ship sensors are inactive. -10% signature.
ESUPT Electronic Support Modules
  • ON: Electronic support will display.
  • OFF: Electronic support will not display.
WCON Weapons Control
  • FREE: Ship will automatically return fire with non-missile weapons on targets that are firing at them.
  • TIGHT: Ship will not attack except when given a target.
  • HOLD: Ship will not attack. Turrets will still bear on any current target.
PDTRT Point Defenses - Turrets
  • AUTO: Dedicated point defense turrets and dual-purpose weapons will target the closest missiles.
  • DEDI: Dedicated point defense turrets will target the closest missiles.
  • MAN: Point defense turrets will only shoot at designated missiles.
PDSML Point Defenses - Missiles
  • Controls the firing of interceptor missiles. Click to open policy settings.
DECOY Point Defenses - Decoys
  • LEAST: Only the lowest-capability decoy necessary to defeat a given threat will be deployed. If the missile type is unknown all decoys will be fired.
  • BEST: Only the highest-capability decoy necessary to defeat a given threat will be deployed. If the missile type is unknown all decoys will be fired.
  • AUTO: All decoys compatible with the threat will be deployed. If the missile type is unknown all decoys will be fired.
  • MAN: Decoys can only be deployed manually via the Action Menu.
PDZNE Point Defense Zone
  • AREA: Point defenses will target all missiles, prioritizing the ones threatening the ship.
  • POINT: Point defenses will target only missiles threatening the ship.

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.
