Overview

The Control Station allows the player to manually fly or control a grid; It may control its movement, rotation, tools, and weapons.

Usage

The Control Station block is very simple to use. While the player may place as many as they like, only one is needed. Control Stations only take one block space, and may only be placed on large ships and stations. Control Stations function the same way as their counter parts in which they allow control over a ships systems. However, it should be noted that it does not allow for a 1st person view compared to the Cockpit or Flight Seat. When used, it only allows visibility from a 3rd person viewpoint of the ship/station.

Note

• If 3rd person is disabled, you will not be able to use the 3rd person view with this block.

Tips

• If 3rd person is disabled, you wont be able to see anything as you're forced to look at the block itself. You can still look around as if you were using the flight seat.
