What this is about
Your ship is not simply parked outside. You request it at a kiosk, someone brings it to a hangar or a landing pad – and you walk there.
The vehicle terminal
In game the kiosk is called fleet manager; among players you often hear the abbreviation ASOP. It stands in stations, spaceports and hangars, and you can request any ship you own or currently rent there.q1
How it works:q1
- Switch on the interaction mode and select the terminal.
- Find your ship in the fleet manager.
- Choose “retrieve” – the ship is brought to a hangar.
Finding the way
After the request the game shows a waypoint in your view. The game text says: pass through the airlock to the landing pads and follow the waypoint on your visor.q1
