PILOT REFERENCE
Component fabrication and research
The 24 components form four tiers of six functional families: frames, control, power, thrust, weapons and fabrication.
How to use it
- Choose the component in Industry > Fabrication and inspect its recipe.
- Acquire its master with the listed credits and research archives, then copy production licenses.
- Gather, refine or buy the missing materials. Use the recipe-card purchase review if needed.
- Build with a license and fee. Research material or cycle efficiency when the savings justify the archive and credit cost.
Field notes
Master acquisition, copying, optimization and manufacturing are separate actions. Researching a master does not grant a finished component or free inventory. The 76-material catalog links each component to its exact inputs and output.
