Save file

2023-03-08T23:55:43Z

Phydaux: /* Items Inventory Codes */ Add more items and their id codes

Save files for the game are stored in <code>%LOCALAPPDATA%\Introversion\LastStarship\saves</code> on Windows and <code>~/Library/Application\ Support/LastStarship/saves</code> on Mac. They are stored in a plaintext format and end in a <code>.space</code> extension.

== Common modifications ==
=== Add items to the Trade screen ===
If you are stuck in a system with no Trade screen or the Trade screen is missing an item you need:

# Save and close the game.
# In the directory listed above, find the <code>.space</code> file corresponding to the saved game and open it in a text editor.
# Search for a line containing <code>TradePossible</code>. Set that to true.
#: ''Note:'' There may be multiple Trade sections in the system archive save file. Make sure to use the base section that is not indented.
# In the <code>TheirStock</code> section below, update or add the desired line using the item code from the table below. Spacing is important, so make sure to match it. The number can be adjusted to the preferred amount.
# Save the changes, run the game, and load the save.

=== Add items to a shuttle ===
Some items, like hull breaches, are technically just like any other items, but they cannot be purchased from the Trade screen, even with the trick above. In this case, it's necessary to modify a shuttle's inventory as it delivers cargo.

# Purchase something or initiate a mission delivery.
# As soon as the shuttle appears, save and close the game.
# In the directory listed above, find the <code>.space</code> file corresponding to the saved game and open it in a text editor.
# Find the section for your ship. It should be the first section beginning with <code>BEGIN Layer</code>. Find the line <code>BEGIN Deliveries</code> inside that section.
# In the the <code>Trade</code> section below, update or add the desired line using the item code from the table below. Spacing is important, so make sure to match it. The number can be adjusted to the preferred amount.

=== Refill a fuel tank ===
If your ship runs out of fuel, but you have a fuel [[tank]] installed:

# Save and close the game.
# In the directory listed above, find the <code>.space</code> file corresponding to the saved game and open it in a text editor.
# Search for a line containing <code>Resource Fuel</code>. Spacing is important.
# Ensure that the line belongs to a tank and that the tank belongs to the correct ship. Player-owned ships are listed as <code>FriendlyShip</code> type.
# Update or add the corresponding <code>Quantity</code> line to add fuel to the tank.
# Save the changes, run the game, and load the save.

Phydaux: Add missing rating category

'''Ratings''' keep track of the player's progress in various categories: Combat, Industry, Humanitarian, Logistics and Criminal.

As the player performs various actions, their ratings increase and open new opportunities for [[Contract]]s.

Habitation Deck

2022-07-24T18:52:34Z

Phydaux: Update links to crew member and civilian

Habitation is where [[Crew member|crew]] and [[Civilian|passengers]] live, it produces [[sewage]], which needs to be disposed of via a sewage system

<section begin=sewage system/>

All parts of the system can be linked to [[Tank|tanks]] via [[Pipe|pipes]] for storage

Sewage is extracted from Habitation via a [[Sewage Pipe|sewage pipe]] the player must installed below habitation.
This is then connected to a [[Waste Treatment Machine|waste treatment machine]], then to a [[Water Purifier|water purifier]].

At this point it can either store water in a tank for passenger use, or be piped into an [[Oxygen Maker|oxygen maker]] to generate O2

<section end=sewage system/>

Water Purifier

2022-07-24T18:46:45Z

Sewage Pipe

2022-07-24T18:30:37Z

Phydaux: Create sewage pipe page

A '''Sewage Pipe''' transfers [[sewage]] from the [[habitation deck]] to the [[Main Deck|main deck]].

It must be constructed below the habitation deck to extract sewage. It can be connected via pipes to a [[Waste Treatment Machine|waste treatment machine]] or a [[tank]]. Separate habitation decks require their own sewage pipe.

Deuterium

2022-07-24T18:18:52Z

Phydaux: Add category

'''Deuterium''' is a dark blue liquid that is used as the fuel in a [[fusion reactor]].

It is purchasable via [[trade]], and can be [[Pipe|piped]] and stored in [[Tank|tanks]].

Fusion Reactor

2022-07-24T18:16:03Z

Phydaux: Add infobox

Fusion reactors may be found on [[Derelict Ship|Derelict Ships]] when salvaging via [[Logistics drone|logistics drones]]. They require [[Deuterium]] as a [[fuel]] source, which may be bought from [[Trade|traders]].

{{Infobox object|image1=|caption1=|image2=|caption2=|name=Fusion reactor|grid_size=5 x 5|inputs=[[Deuterium]]|outputs=500Mw|fuel_consumption=5 deuterium (at max power generation)|power_consumption=|base_cost=}}

The deuterium requires a [[loader]] to be transfered to the fusion reactor, and can be stored in [[Tank|tanks]]

A fusion reactor requires 100 power to spin up, but charges like other equipment. After spinning up, it begins to intake deuterium. Once powered, they remain powered if fueled

Fusion reactors generate upto 500 power

Fusion reactor

2022-07-24T18:14:46Z

Phydaux: Redirect to existing page

#REDIRECT [[Fusion Reactor]]A '''fusion reactor''' generates power for the ship. It requires a supply of [[deuterium]] to generate the power. Initially it requires external power to load the deuterium.

Tank

2022-07-24T17:09:56Z

Phydaux: List everything a tank can currently hold

[[Tank]]s provide storage for [[oxygen]], [[CO2|CO2]], [[water]], [[fuel]], [[sewage]], [[waste water]], and [[Deuterium|duterium]]. They can be used to provide a stable supply of resources to equipment e.g. fuel to reactors. [[Crew member]]s will refill tanks from [[canister]]s using set up [[Loader|loaders]] when necessary.

The crew can repair damaged tanks. When a tank is destroyed, all contents are lost and irrecoverable. Currently, only small tanks and medium can be purchased. Large tanks can only be looted from [[Derelict Ship|Derelict Ships]].
