An Outer Star Base (OSB) is very similar to a Private Space Station / Inner Star Base (ISB) with exceptions.

An OSB:

  • Costs 80 Stellar Credits to set-up, 0 Stellar Credits if set-up in the orbital proximity of your colony and linked. Has a monthly cost of 40 Stellar Credits if not linked to a colony.
  • Can be set up almost anywhere in outer space except the inner systems.
  • Is not restricted to 100 rings. A 200x200x200 proximity is reserved for the OSB (each square unit can contain one star base module).
  • Has no Galactic Market
  • Has no Open Warehouse menu button (you can have warehouses, but you need to fly close to them)


Contents

Starting an OSB

Fly to the location you want a star base and use the computer command: gg.planstarbase


Attaching an OSB to your Existing Colony

Go to your colony warp-in point. Follow the Stock Market laser up and away from the planet (at least 100km above the planet). Use the computer command: gg.planstarbase

If successful, the Autopilot should show your colony and your OSB together like this:

Linked Colony and Starbase


OSB Modules

The OSB uses the same modules as an ISB.


OSB Construction Guidelines

The first building to be constructed should be a Shipyard on location (0,0,0) since the building has a large protruding configuration.

Warehouses need water (H2O), so import water from a colony and store in the warehouse. The water won't be consumed, but used by the warehouses and satisfy the demand requirements.

Although the OSB reserves 200x200x200 for your starbase, the actual accessible construction range is described as a 1/8th sphere where (0,0,0) is the center (picture not to scale).
