== Description ==
There are two categories of fuel, [[Solid Fuel|solid fuel]] and gas mixtures.
===Solid fuel===
There are currently only two [[Solid Fuel|solid fuels]] available in the game [[Ore (Coal)|Coal]], and [[Charcoal|Charcoal]]. Both can be used to fuel the [[Solid Fuel Generator]].
When burning [[coal]] and [[charcoal]] they produce the following gases.

|}

===Gas Fuel===
In order to use gases for fuel you need a combustible gas or liquid combined with an oxidizer. There are two flammable gases in the game [[Hydrogen]] and [[Volatiles|Methane]],as well as one flammable liquid, [[Alcohol]] and there are three oxygen sources; [[Oxygen]],[[Ozone]] and [[Nitrous Oxide]]. This can be done by manually [[Fuel#Making_Fuels|mixing chunks of ice]], or by using a [[Gas Mixer]] .

When using [[Liquid Fuel|liquid fuel]] some heat [[energy]] produced will be spent to evaporate [[Liquid Fuel|liquid fuel]] components.

== Making Fuels ==
Fuel can be mixed in a number of ways, by feeding the ice directly into the input of a furnace, by feeding the ice into an Ice Crusher, by melting the ices in an enclosed space and collecting the gases.

Depending on how exact the proportions of your gas mixture are you will end up with different end temperatures and pressures after ignition.

===Dirty Fuel===
A fuel that can be made easily in the early game is Dirty Fuel. It can be made by mixing Volatile Ice and Oxite at a 2:1 ratio.

|}

This is a simple ratio and will burn fairly well, but will leave some unburned Oxygen. A mixture of 45 Volatile Ice to 22 Oxite will result in an ideal Fuel to oxidizer ratio, but will still contain Nitrogen which will not help with combustion. If more pure fuel mixtures are desired the unused or undesired constituents will need to be filter out, and the fuel mixture will potentially need to be re-balanced. But Dirty Fuel will perform adequately well in the early part of the game.

An alternative recipe uses [[Volatiles]] ice and [[Nitrice]] at a 1:8.8 (5:44) ratio. Although nitrous oxide is a more energetic oxidizer, the large amounts of nitrogen present on Nitrice make the combustion reach lower temperatures and less water is produced.

===Refined Fuels===
Later in the game, or on more advanced planets, gases can be collected, filtered and combined to make pure fuel mixtures. This will require holding [[Tank|Tanks]], [[Filtration]] units, and [[Pipe_Gas_Mixer|Gas Mixers]]. On some [[planets]] gases may be collected directly from the [[atmosphere]]. This can be accomplished with an [[Active_Vent|active vent]], some [[Pipes|pipe]] and a [[Gas Tank Storage|gas tank storage]]. Depending on the atmosphere pollutants or inert gases will need to be removed from the collected gases, a [[Filtration|filtration unit]] and a [[filter]] will be needed for this. On other planets there is no atmosphere and gases will have to be collected by crushing Ices. Crushing Ices is by far the most common source for gases early in the game.

=== Collecting gases ===

This can be accomplished with an [[Active_Vent|active vent]], some [[Pipes|pipe]] and a [[Gas Tank Storage|gas tank storage]]. Raw gases can also be collected from an Ice Crusher setup or by melting them in a furnace.
===Basic Ice Crusher Setup===
A basic [[Ice Crusher]] setup will provide most of your gas collection and mixing needs. Gases can be collected by crushing Ices or by collecting atmospheric gases, if present.

====Parts required====
* 1 x [[Ice Crusher]]
* 5 x [[Pipes]]
* 1 x [[Pipe_Volume_Pump|Volume Pump]]
* 1 x [[Pressure Regulator]]
Optional
* 1 x [[Active Vent]]
With this setup you can collect gases from ices to mix later. You can also pre-mix the gases by adding Volatile ice and Oxite at a 2:1 ratio. You can then load the pre-mixed fuel in canisters in pre-measured amounts using the [[pressure]] regulator.
====Setup====
[[File:ICE_CRUSHER.png|thumb|Combination Ice Crusher, Gas collection, and Gas measuring station, Front View (Caution: Be sure to turn of the pressure regulator, and pump al the gas out of the crusher when mixing gases)]]
# Place the ice crusher
# Place a [[pipe]] facing to the right
# Place a volume pump
# Place a pipe tee facing left,right, and down.
# Place a [[canister]] storage below the tee
# Place a regulator to the right of the tee
# Place a tee facing left,right, and down, Or an elbow facing left and down.
# Place a second canister storage below the tee or elbow.
# (Optional) Place an active vent to the right of the last canister storage.
====Usage====
====Fuel mixing====
# Place Volatile Ice and Oxites in the ice crusher at a 2:1 ratio. <br> &ensp; &emsp;'''*''' You can safely fit 8 Volatile to 4 Oxites in a canister. A Ratio of 10:5 will overfill a single canister <br> &ensp;&emsp;'''**''' Be sure to pump all the gases out of the crusher into a single canister, otherwise the mixture will fluxuate as the grinder processes and outputs ices. <br> &ensp;&emsp;'''***''' Also be sure to turn off your regulator while you are collecting gases.<br>
# Pump the gases to your storage containers. <br>
# Set the regulator to the approximate pressure required to load the amount of fuel you need into the canister. <br>&ensp;&emsp;'''*''' You can check the exact amount in the canister using the [[tablet]] and the gas analyzer

====Refiling oxygen tanks====
# Purge the [[Pipe Network|pipe network]] of any spurious gases from previous operations.
# Crush Oxites in the the ice crusher
# Pump the Oxites into a canister. <br>&ensp;&emsp;'''*'''A canister can hold approximately 12 Oxites.<br>&ensp;&emsp;'''*'''You will need to use a nitrogen filter in additon to your regular CO2 filter when breathing crushed Oxites.
====Emptying Canisters====
# Place any canisters you want to empty into the far left canister storage
# Set the active vent to "outward" and turn it on.
====Collecting Atmospheric Gases====
# Place any canisters you want to fill in the far left slot.
# Set the active vent to "Inwards" and turn it on. <br>&ensp;&emsp;'''*'''Be aware that the canister will fill very quickly, be careful not to over-pressurize the canister.

==Advanced Fuel Mixing==
For cleaner and more efficient fuels the collected gases will need to be filtered and the mixture rations may need to be improved. This can be accomplished by either removing unwanted gases from a fuel mixture or by separating the gases with a filtration setup and recombining them in the correct ratios. Gases can be mixed using a [[Pipe_Gas_Mixer|gas mixer]] or by using a regulator and [[Atmos Analyzer]] [[cartridge]] in a tablet to monitor the mixture. A Pipe Gas Mixer requires that both gasses have equal temperature for a correct ratio of gasses in the output

== Mixing Fuel ==
You can easily mix fuel by adding oxidizes and fuel, which have been previously collected to a [[Pipe Network|pipe network]] in order to put it into tank storage. From the tank storage it can be pumped in to canister or directly into a [[furnace]].

=== Mixing and storing Nitro ===
Note that keeping Nitrous Oxide below autoignition temperature means condensation at pressures above 1MPa pressure, making it hard to store or mix fuel in large quantities without liquid management as the latent heat of condensation can result in enough heating for autoignition to occur. While this reaction releases the same amount of energy as the classic fuel combustion above, it does so using half the volatiles and heating waste gases with less thermal mass resulting in higher temperatures.

===Basic Canister Mixing Setup===
Once filtered and stored gases can be mixed to obtain purified fuel, these fuel will burn more completely and have fewer combustion products
====Parts required====
* 2 x [[Portables Connector]]
* 2 x [[Portable Gas Tank]]
* 1 x [[Pipe Gas Mixer]]
* 1 x [[Gas Tank Storage]]
* ''n'' x [[Pipes]]
* ''n'' x [[Cables]]
* ''n'' x [[Gas Canister]]

====Setup====
# Place both Portable Connectors
# Connect both Portable Connectors to the the inputs of the Pipe Gas Mixer
# Connect the Pipe Gas Mixer output to the Gas [[Tank]] Storage input
# Connect the Pipe Gas Mixer [[power]] input to power source.

====Use====
# Put first Portable Gas Tank or scrubber filled with O<sub>2</sub> on one Portables Connector.
# Put second Portable Gas Tank or scrubber filled with H<sub>2</sub>/volatile on the other Portables Connector.
# Use a [[wrench]] to connect both Portable Gas Tanks to their places.
# Optional: for a perfect fuel mix, ensure the temperatures of both gases are exactly the same.
# Set the Pipe Gas Mixer to desired combination (34% O<sub>2</sub> + 66% H<sub>2</sub>) Note: as the combination is a floating point number, you can also enter 0.333... or 0.666... with a [[Labeller]] to get a more precise mix.
# Turn on Pipe Gas Mixer
# Place an empty Gas Canister in Gas Tank Storage.

Azera: Fix statement on when downtime starts

[[Category:Trading]]
[[Category:Game Mechanics]]

[[File:Trader Preview.png|thumb|right|Old preview image for the trading feature showing now deprecated landing pad]]

Traders are NPC ships that can be summoned to a [[Landing Pad]] using a [[Satellite Dish]] and [[Computer]]. Each trader type carries a fixed inventory of goods to sell to the player and a [[list of items]] or resources they will buy. Prices are fixed per visit; stock quantities for bulk goods scale with the ship size.

For a step-by-step guide to setting up and using the trading system, see [[Guide (Trading)]].

= Mechanics =

== Contact Slots ==

The Satellite Dish contacts traders through one of five ''contact slots''. Each slot determines which ship type arrives, the dish [[power]] required to make contact, how long negotiations take, how long the signal remains detectable, and the downtime before the next contact appears.

The '''min. watts to appear''' is the minimum wattage that must reach the contact for it to enter the signal list and begin resolving. Contacts below this threshold are invisible to the dish regardless of aim. Utility and Basic contacts have no floor and will appear at any detectable power level. The '''contact [[time]]''' is the base duration of the negotiation phase: how long the dish must continuously transmit after pressing Interrogate before the contact is established. This is the time at the minimum required wattage; supplying more power shortens it proportionally (double the minimum wattage halves the time). The value is randomised per visit within the range shown. The '''signal window''' is how long you have to detect and successfully interrogate the contact before it disappears. The '''downtime''' timer starts when a contact's signal window expires and controls how long before the next contact for that slot appears.

{| class="wikitable"
! Slot !! Ship Type !! Min. Watts to Appear !! Min. Power to Contact !! Contact Time !! Signal Window !! Downtime !! Special Requirement
|-
| Utility || Small [[Shuttle]] || 0 W || 25–30 W || 20–30 s || ~20 min || 300–600 s (5–10 min) ||
|-
| Basic || Small Shuttle || 0 W || 25–30 W || 20–30 s || ~20 min || 30 s ||
|-
| Medium || Medium Shuttle or Plane || 20 W || 180–200 W || 60–120 s || ~20 min || 30–60 s ||
|-
| Large || Large Shuttle or Plane || 250 W || 6,000–8,000 W || 400–600 s || ~30 min || 60–120 s ||
|-
| Exotics || Small Shuttle || 100 W || 6,000–8,000 W || 400–600 s || ~30 min || 1,200–2,400 s (20–40 min) || Human [[atmosphere]] required to trade
|}

'''Utility vs. Basic:''' Both use an identical small shuttle and require the same dish power. The only functional difference is downtime: Utility traders have a 5–10 minute cooldown between visits, while Basic traders are available again within 30 seconds. [[Food]], Hardware, Consumables, and Appliance traders all use the Utility slot, making them significantly less frequent despite appearing to require the same [[equipment]].

'''Exotics:''' Requires high dish power and has the longest downtime (20–40 minutes). The Exotics slot is the only slot with any atmosphere requirement. Crucially, this does not block contact or landing; the trader will dock regardless of conditions. The atmosphere is instead checked continuously while the trader is landed to control the ship's doors: they open only when the pad has safe [[pressure]], temperature between 0°C and 50°C, low toxins, and sufficient [[oxygen]]. If conditions degrade mid-visit, the doors close and trading suspends until the atmosphere is restored.

'''One trader per slot at a time:''' Only one trader of each contact slot type (landed or in transit) can be present at any given time. A second trader of the same slot type will not appear until the current one has departed and cleared the area.

=== Landing Pad Requirements ===

Each shuttle type requires a minimum landing pad size. Plane variants additionally require a clear runway of a fixed length in the approach direction, indicated by the arrow on the [[Landing Pad Center]].

{| class="wikitable"
! Shuttle Type !! Pad Size !! Runway Length
|-
| Small (standard or gas) || 3×3 || None
|-
| Medium (standard or gas) || 5×5 || None
|-
| Medium Plane || 7×7 || 15 blocks
|-
| Large (standard or gas) || 6×6 || None
|-
| Large Plane || 9×9 || 20 blocks
|}

=== Storm Behaviour ===

During a [[storm]], regular shuttle traders (Small, Medium, and Large, including gas variants) cannot land. Plane traders (Medium Plane and Large Plane) are unaffected and can land normally during a storm. All trader types can depart during a storm regardless of ship type.

=== Bulk Scaling ===

Many goods are listed as bulk items. The quantity delivered or required scales with the contact slot's bulk multiplier. Stock and required quantities in the tables below are base values (at ×1.0 multiplier).

{| class="wikitable"
! Slot !! Bulk Multiplier
|-
| Utility || ×0.5
|-
| Basic || ×0.5
|-
| Medium || ×1.0
|-
| Large || ×2.0
|-
| Exotics || ×0.5
|}

For example, a sell item with a base stock of 800 (Bulk) delivers 400 units from a Basic or Utility ship, 800 from a Medium ship, and 1,600 from a Large ship.

== IC10 Automation ==

The [[Satellite Dish]] exposes a [[Logic|logic variable]] <code>ContactTypeId</code> that identifies the currently tracked trader type. This is a Unity [[hash]] of the trader's internal ID string and can be used with an [[Integrated Circuit (IC10)]] to automate dish tracking and contact selection. Values for each trader type:

{{Stationpedia|A container for a [[Burger]] that is both aesthetic and practical as it will significantly reduce the decay rate. Will directly allow the eating of contained food when opened in hands.}}

= Description =
The Burger Box is a single-slot container designed to hold a [[Burger]]. It halves the decay rate of any burger stored inside, making it useful for preserving [[food]] during transport or storage. Burgers sold to [[traders]] must be presented inside a Burger Box.

= Usage =
Place a [[Burger]] in the box's slot to store it. To eat the burger directly, hold the box in hand and right-click to open it — the contained burger can then be consumed without removing it first.

Traders will buy a Burger Box containing a fresh burger (at least 50% condition remaining) for 350 credits. This buy offer appears with a 25% chance per [[trader]] visit and is accepted by most trader types.

= Description =
The Large Cardboard Box is a reusable container holding up to 10 items of any type, offering more capacity than the standard [[Cardboard Box]]. Like its smaller counterpart it can be renamed using a [[Labeller]] or painted with spray paint. It does not appear in any [[trader]] buy bundles and cannot be used in the place of the Cardboard box when creating a bundle.

= Usage =
Hold an item and interact with the box to insert it. Interact with an empty hand to retrieve the top item. Large Cardboard Boxes cannot be placed inside other cardboard boxes unless placed inside of another item first.

}}

= Description =
The Cardboard Box is a reusable container that holds up to 6 items of any type. It can be renamed with a [[Labeller]] for inventory organisation. It is also the required packaging for selling goods to [[traders]] — most [[trader]] buy bundles expect a Cardboard Box containing the specified items.

= Usage =
Hold an item and interact with the box to insert it. Interact with an empty hand to retrieve the top item. Cardboard boxes cannot be placed inside other cardboard boxes. However, a cardboard box placed inside of another item such as a [[backpack]] can be placed inside of another cardboard box.

To sell goods to a trader, fill a Cardboard Box with the items the trader is buying and present the box as the sell package. Different traders accept different box contents at different prices; check the active trader's buy list before packing.

{{Stationpedia|When set to Inwards mode the [[Liquid Vacuum]] removes liquid from the world and into its internal tank. When set to outwards mode it empties its internal tank back into the world. Empty it over [[Passive Liquid Inlet]] to get your liquid back into a pipe.}}

= Description =
The Liquid Vacuum is a [[battery]]-powered handheld tool for collecting and dispensing liquids directly from and into the game world. It holds up to 500 liters internally and transfers up to 5 liters per atmospheric [[tick]]. It is useful for cleaning up liquid spills or moving liquids to locations not easily reached by piping.

= Usage =
Insert a battery cell into the battery slot to [[power]] the device. Toggle the mode using the interact menu — Inward mode draws liquid from the world [[atmosphere]] into the internal tank, Outward mode releases it back into the world. Hold the primary use button to operate the vacuum while it is switched on.

When the internal tank is full (≥99%), Inward mode will stop and show an error state. When the tank is empty, Outward mode will similarly stop. To transfer collected liquid into a [[pipe]] network, switch to Outward mode and hold the vacuum over a [[Passive Liquid Inlet]].

}}

{{Stationpedia|A flashlight with a narrow and wide beam options.}}

= Description =
The Flashlight is a [[battery]]-powered handheld [[light]] source with two beam modes: a narrow focused beam for long-range illumination and a wide flood beam for broader area coverage. It requires a [[Battery Cell (Small)|battery cell]] to operate and can be painted to customize its color.

= Usage =
Toggle the flashlight on and off with right click while held. Cycle between narrow and wide beam modes using the mode selection in the context menu. When held, the beam tracks the player's head orientation.

The flashlight remains illuminated when dropped on the ground and can be toggled on or off by left-clicking on its handle. The light deactivates when placed in storage, but the battery continues to drain if left toggled on. Turn it off before storing it to preserve charge.

}}

= Description =
The Flare Gun is a single-shot launcher that fires [[Road Flare|road flares]] as aerial illumination rounds. Unlike a flare held in the hand, a fired flare deploys a parachute and descends slowly, providing sustained overhead lighting across a wide area.

= Usage =
Load a stack of [[Road Flares|road flares]] into the Magazine slot, then fire to launch one into the air. The gun has a short cooldown between shots. Each shot consumes one flare from the magazine. The launched flare deploys a parachute and illuminates the area below as it descends.

= Tips =
Unlike the flares themselves, the Flare Gun counts as a tool and can be placed inside the [[Mining Belt]] in the slot that was previously occupied by the [[Pickaxe]].

Gas Mask

| prefabname = ItemGasMask
| slot_class = SlotClass.Helmet
| sorting_class = SortingClass.Clothing
}}

{{Stationpedia|This mask will mix with the world atmosphere but filter out the gasses based on the filters in its two slots.}}

= Description =
The Gas Mask is a [[helmet]]-slot item that allows the wearer to breathe in toxic atmospheres by filtering out specific gases before they reach the lungs. Unlike a [[Space Helmet]], it draws air directly from the surrounding environment rather than a dedicated air [[tank]], making it well suited to environments that have breathable air contaminated with specific hazardous gases.

Despite not being a pressurized helmet, it shares the same suit requirement and flush behavior as one.

= Usage =

== Filtering ==
Insert up to two [[Filter|Gas Filters]] into the mask's slots to specify which gases to remove. Each [[tick]] the mask equalizes the surrounding [[world]] [[atmosphere]] into its internal pocket, then strips out any gases matching the installed filters. The filtered gases are expelled back into the surrounding atmosphere rather than stored.

Filters degrade only when they actually remove gas.

== Suit requirement ==
The mask only delivers filtered air to the wearer's lungs when a suit is also equipped. Without a suit, the wearer breathes unfiltered world atmosphere directly, as if the mask were not present.

== Flush ==
The Flush interaction purges the mask's internal atmosphere, the suit's internal atmosphere, and the wearer's lung atmosphere simultaneously, expelling all contents into the surrounding environment. This is useful after a suit breach or after removing and reequipping the suit, as the lung atmosphere may still contain contaminants absorbed while unprotected.

= Notes =
* The Gas Mask has no built-in [[light]], unlike the [[Hard Hat]] and [[Headlamp]].
* '''Caution:''' The Gas Mask is not a [[pressure]] suit. It provides no protection against low-pressure or vacuum environments.

}}

{{Stationpedia|Requires a canister filled with any inert liquid to operate.}}

= Description =
The Fire Extinguisher (Reusable) is a handheld fire suppression tool. Unlike its predecessor the [[Fire Extinguisher]], it does not carry a fixed charge — instead it accepts a replaceable [[Liquid Canister]] or [[Liquid Canister (Smart)]] which can be refilled and swapped out.

= Usage =
Equip the extinguisher and insert a liquid [[canister]] filled with a [[#Compatible liquids|compatible liquid]]. Activate to spray. While suppressing a fire the extinguisher will remove heat [[energy]] from the surrounding [[atmosphere]] and prevent reignition for five seconds after you stop spraying.

The canister must be at least 99% inert by content — spraying a canister containing [[oxygen]], [[fuel]], or any other reactive substance will not suppress the fire, and any liquid sprayed will still be released into the atmosphere.

== Spray duration ==
Spray rate is fixed at 0.25 liters per second regardless of canister type.

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Canister !! Usable Capacity !! Spray Duration
|-
| [[Liquid Canister]] || ~12 L || ~48 seconds
|-
| [[Liquid Canister (Smart)]] || ~18 L || ~72 seconds
|}

== Compatible liquids ==
The following liquids are considered inert and will allow the extinguisher to suppress fires:
* [[Water]]
* [[Liquid Carbon Dioxide]]
* [[Liquid Nitrogen]]
* [[Liquid Pollutant]]
* [[Polluted Water]]
* [[Liquid Helium]]
* [[Liquid Hydrochloric Acid]]
* [[Liquid Silanol]]

}}

{{Stationpedia|Use with Spray cans in the SprayCan slot to paint structures, cables and pipes. Much more efficient and faster than doing it with individual spray cans.}}

= Description =
The Spray Gun accepts a [[Spray Paint]] can and applies paint faster and more efficiently than using a spray can directly. It can be used to change the color of [[structures]] and most items. For setting colors on electronic displays and similar devices, see their respective [[logic]] parameters and the [[Data Network Colors]] page.

= Usage =
The Spray Gun must be toggled on before use with right click or via the context menu. Load a [[Spray Paint]] can into the [[Spray Can]] slot and left-click a target to apply paint. The spray gun's efficiency reduces paint consumption to 0.3125% per use (approximately 320 uses per full can), compared to 5% per use with a bare spray can.

It is possible to paint an entire stack of items (such as cable coils, [[pipes]], or [[Steel Frames|steel frames]]) with a single use. When stacks are combined, the receiving stack retains its color.

Each spray action releases approximately 0.01 mol of [[Pollutant]] at 294.35 K into the local [[atmosphere]]. Avoid using the spray gun inside pressurized areas where pollutant accumulation could harm occupants or [[plants]].

{{Stationpedia|The Combustion Centrifuge is a gas powered version of the [[Centrifuge]]. If a [[Recycler]] or unbalanced [[Furnace]] outputs reagent mixture rather than the desired [[:Category:Ingot|ingots]], a centrifuge allows you to reclaim the raw [[Ores|ore]].

It also refines [[Dirty Ore]] produced from the [[Deep Miner]] and [[Dirty Ore]] produced from the [[Rocket Miner]]. A combustible fuel mix should be supplied to the gas input, and waste gasses should be vented from the output.

The machine's RPMs must be controlled via the throttle and combustion limiter levers. If the Combustion Centrifuge gains, or loses, RPMs too fast it will experience stress, and eventually grind to a halt. Higher RPMs directly result in faster processing speeds.

== Description ==
The combustion centrifuge is a gas powered version of the [[Centrifuge]]. A combustible fuel mix should be supplied to the gas input, and waste gasses should be vented from the output. The machine's RPM's must be controlled via the throttle and combustion limiter levers. If the Combustion Centrifuge gains, or loses, RPMs too fast it will experience stress, and eventually grind to a halt. Higher RPMs directly result in faster processing speeds.

The throttle lever controls the amount of fuel being pulled into the machine, increasing the temperature inside the engine, and leading to an increase in RPM. The limiter lever influences the speed of combustion, and how much uncombusted gas is in the exhaust.

Ejecting ore from the Combustion Centrifuge while it is at high RPMs will result in additional stress build up. If turned off, while not stressed, the machine will automatically start to brake, and reduce RPMs in a controlled manner.
The Combustion Centrifuge can hold 3000g processed ore in its internal storage, meaning it can run continuously for multiple hours before being emptied.

The Combustion Centrifuge has a socket for an [[Integrated Circuit (IC10)|IC10 chip]], similar to the [[Atmospherics]] machine. It comes with two device ports, d0 and d1, for connecting to other devices. To change or set a device, use a [[screwdriver]] to cycle through devices found on the machine's data network.
== Processing Speed ==
Using regular [[Fuel]], the Combustion Centrifuge can reach a bit higher than 500 RPM, making it just over 5 times faster than the regular [[Centrifuge]]. The regular electric centrifuge will take about 20 seconds to process a single piece of [[Dirty Ore]], while a Combustion Centrifuge at 520 RPM will take just 3.5 seconds. At full speed, the centrifuge will take in the realm of 3-5 hours to deplete a [[Gas Canister (Smart)|Smart Canister]] filled with fuel.

The speed of the Combustion Centrifuge can be boosted significantly by replacing the fuel mixture with a [[Fuel|Superfuel]] mixture (N20 with Volatiles). Using a superfuel mixture can boost the centrifuge to ~1200 RPM, processing ore at more than double the speed. This comes at the cost of ease of use, as storing Superfuel mixtures and [[Nitrous Oxide]] itself is difficult, and starting up the centrifuge also becomes more complex.
== Throttle ==

Every [[tick]] up to 0.01 moles of gas will be pulled in to the machine from the input [[pipe]] network. The Throttle parameter linearly controls how much gas to pull in, <code>inputMoles = 0.01*Throttle/100</code>. The Throttle value is rounded to the nearest multiple of 10 when set over the Data Network.

== Combustion Limiter ==

On each tick the Combustion Centrifuge will manually combust up to 75% of the fuel mixture in its internal [[atmosphere]]. This happens on the remaining fuel '''after''' natural combustion takes place as described in [[Volatiles#Usage|Volatiles]]. The portion of fuel manually combusted each tick is <code>clamp((Limiter/10)^2 * 0.0075, 0.001, 1)</code>. The Combustion Limiter value is rounded to the nearest multiple of 10 when set over the Data Network.

[[File:Trader Preview.png|thumb|right|Old preview image for the trading feature showing now deprecated landing pad]]

Traders are NPC ships that can be summoned to a [[Landing Pad]] using a [[Satellite Dish]] and [[Computer]]. Each trader type carries a fixed inventory of goods to sell to the player and a [[list of items]] or resources they will buy. Prices are fixed per visit; stock quantities for bulk goods scale with the ship size.

For a step-by-step guide to setting up and using the trading system, see [[Guide (Trading)]].

= Mechanics =

== Contact Slots ==

The Satellite Dish contacts traders through one of five ''contact slots''. Each slot determines which ship type arrives, the dish [[power]] required to make contact, how long negotiations take, how long the signal remains detectable, and the downtime before the next contact appears.

The '''min. watts to appear''' is the minimum wattage that must reach the contact for it to enter the signal list and begin resolving. Contacts below this threshold are invisible to the dish regardless of aim. Utility and Basic contacts have no floor and will appear at any detectable power level. The '''contact [[time]]''' is the base duration of the negotiation phase: how long the dish must continuously transmit after pressing Interrogate before the contact is established. This is the time at the minimum required wattage; supplying more power shortens it proportionally (double the minimum wattage halves the time). The value is randomised per visit within the range shown. The '''signal window''' is how long you have to detect and successfully interrogate the contact before it disappears. The '''downtime''' timer starts when a contact is removed (whether it expired uncontacted or was dismissed after a visit) and controls how long before the next contact for that slot appears.

{| class="wikitable"
! Slot !! Ship Type !! Min. Watts to Appear !! Min. Power to Contact !! Contact Time !! Signal Window !! Downtime !! Special Requirement
|-
| Utility || Small [[Shuttle]] || 0 W || 25–30 W || 20–30 s || ~20 min || 300–600 s (5–10 min) ||
|-
| Basic || Small Shuttle || 0 W || 25–30 W || 20–30 s || ~20 min || 30 s ||
|-
| Medium || Medium Shuttle or Plane || 20 W || 180–200 W || 60–120 s || ~20 min || 30–60 s ||
|-
| Large || Large Shuttle or Plane || 250 W || 6,000–8,000 W || 400–600 s || ~30 min || 60–120 s ||
|-
| Exotics || Small Shuttle || 100 W || 6,000–8,000 W || 400–600 s || ~30 min || 1,200–2,400 s (20–40 min) || Human [[atmosphere]] required to trade
|}

'''Utility vs. Basic:''' Both use an identical small shuttle and require the same dish power. The only functional difference is downtime: Utility traders have a 5–10 minute cooldown between visits, while Basic traders are available again within 30 seconds. [[Food]], Hardware, Consumables, and Appliance traders all use the Utility slot, making them significantly less frequent despite appearing to require the same [[equipment]].

'''Exotics:''' Requires high dish power and has the longest downtime (20–40 minutes). The Exotics slot is the only slot with any atmosphere requirement. Crucially, this does not block contact or landing; the trader will dock regardless of conditions. The atmosphere is instead checked continuously while the trader is landed to control the ship's doors: they open only when the pad has safe [[pressure]], temperature between 0°C and 50°C, low toxins, and sufficient [[oxygen]]. If conditions degrade mid-visit, the doors close and trading suspends until the atmosphere is restored.

'''One trader per slot at a time:''' Only one trader of each contact slot type (landed or in transit) can be present at any given time. A second trader of the same slot type will not appear until the current one has departed and cleared the area.

=== Landing Pad Requirements ===

Each shuttle type requires a minimum landing pad size. Plane variants additionally require a clear runway of a fixed length in the approach direction, indicated by the arrow on the [[Landing Pad Center]].

{| class="wikitable"
! Shuttle Type !! Pad Size !! Runway Length
|-
| Small (standard or gas) || 3×3 || None
|-
| Medium (standard or gas) || 5×5 || None
|-
| Medium Plane || 7×7 || 15 blocks
|-
| Large (standard or gas) || 6×6 || None
|-
| Large Plane || 9×9 || 20 blocks
|}

=== Storm Behaviour ===

During a [[storm]], regular shuttle traders (Small, Medium, and Large, including gas variants) cannot land. Plane traders (Medium Plane and Large Plane) are unaffected and can land normally during a storm. All trader types can depart during a storm regardless of ship type.

=== Bulk Scaling ===

Many goods are listed as bulk items. The quantity delivered or required scales with the contact slot's bulk multiplier. Stock and required quantities in the tables below are base values (at ×1.0 multiplier).

{| class="wikitable"
! Slot !! Bulk Multiplier
|-
| Utility || ×0.5
|-
| Basic || ×0.5
|-
| Medium || ×1.0
|-
| Large || ×2.0
|-
| Exotics || ×0.5
|}

For example, a sell item with a base stock of 800 (Bulk) delivers 400 units from a Basic or Utility ship, 800 from a Medium ship, and 1,600 from a Large ship.

== IC10 Automation ==

The [[Satellite Dish]] exposes a [[Logic|logic variable]] <code>ContactTypeId</code> that identifies the currently tracked trader type. This is a Unity [[hash]] of the trader's internal ID string and can be used with an [[Integrated Circuit (IC10)]] to automate dish tracking and contact selection. Values for each trader type:

{| class="wikitable"

== Genetics Trader ==

Sells rare [[plants]], genetically modified crops, and fertilized eggs. Only available via the Exotics slot, requiring a human-breathable atmosphere at the station. The long downtime (20–40 minutes) makes this one of the rarest traders in the game.

|}

The trader will land regardless of atmosphere. The ship's doors (and therefore trading) will only open while the landing pad has safe pressure, 0–50°C temperature, low toxins, and sufficient oxygen. This is checked continuously while the trader is landed; if conditions degrade, the doors close until the atmosphere is restored.

The trader will land regardless of atmosphere. The ship's doors (and therefore trading) will only open while the landing pad has safe pressure, 0–50°C temperature, low toxins, and sufficient oxygen. This is checked continuously while the trader is landed; if conditions degrade, the doors close until the atmosphere is restored.

[[Category:Guides]]

This guide covers how to set up a landing pad, contact traders, conduct trades, and handle [[Gases and Liquids|gases and liquids]]. For a full reference on which traders exist, what they sell, and what they buy, see [[Traders]].

== What You Need ==

[[Trading]] requires the following items connected on the same [[power]] and data network:

* '''[[Landing Pad Center]]''': the core of the landing pad; determines approach direction (follow the arrow)
* '''[[Landing Pad Data and Power]]''': connects the landing pad structure to the data/power network
* '''[[Satellite Dish]]''': tracks and contacts trader ships; must be aligned toward the trader
* '''[[Computer]]''' with a '''[[Motherboard (Communication)]]''' installed: used to select a landing pad, target a dish, and initiate contact
* '''[[Credit Card]]''': required to complete any transaction
* '''[[Vending Machine]]''' or '''[[Vending Machine (Refrigerated)]]''' (optional but strongly recommended for bulk trades)

=== Landing Pad Layout ===

The [[Landing Pad Center]] is the tile on which the trader ship lands. The arrow on the centerpiece indicates the approach and departure direction; nothing must block this path. Plane-type traders additionally require a clear runway extending from the pad in the approach direction.

Pad size is determined by the trader's ship type. The minimum required pad area must be fully built out around the centerpiece:

{| class="wikitable"
! Ship Type !! Min. Pad Size !! Runway Required
|-
| Small [[Shuttle]] (standard or gas) || 3×3 || None
|-
| Medium Shuttle (standard or gas) || 5×5 || None
|-
| Medium Plane || 7×7 || 15 blocks
|-
| Large Shuttle (standard or gas) || 6×6 || None
|-
| Large Plane || 9×9 || 20 blocks
|}

You can build multiple landing pads connected to the same data network. Having one pad per contact slot type allows you to trade with all available trader types simultaneously. The Computer lets you select which pad and dish to use for each contact attempt.

=== Satellite Dish Power and Alignment ===

The Satellite Dish must be pointed toward the trader ship and powered sufficiently to make contact. Each contact slot type has a minimum watt requirement; see [[Traders#Contact Slots]] for the full table.

'''Alignment:''' Perfect alignment is not required. As long as the dish meets the minimum power threshold for the target trader, some angular offset is tolerated. Small shuttle traders (3×3 pad) are more forgiving of misalignment than larger traders.

'''Power budget:''' The dish has three distinct power states:
* '''Resolving''': when the dish is aimed at a contact and has enough power to detect it, the contact automatically begins resolving. The duration scales inversely with wattage delivered to the contact: more power shortens it, less power lengthens it. A contact detected with barely enough power to appear may take a very long [[time]] to resolve. During this phase the dish draws 10% of its dial setting.
* '''Interrogating''': once a contact is resolved, pressing '''Interrogate''' begins interrogation. The dish immediately draws its full dial wattage as a continuous load for the entire interrogation period.
* '''Idle''': all other times the dish draws only its base standby power.

Plan your cable and generator capacity around the full dial setting, since that is what the dish draws the moment you press Interrogate. This is especially important for large traders, where the dish must be set to 6,000 W or higher. Be careful with the Medium and [[Large Satellite Dish]]; at maximum output they can exceed the rating of low-voltage [[cables]], burning them out.

'''[[IC10]] automation:''' Dish tracking can be automated with an [[Integrated Circuit (IC10)]]. The IC10 can read and write the dish's <code>Horizontal</code> and <code>Vertical</code> [[logic]] variables directly to sweep the dish, and read <code>ContactTypeId</code> to identify which trader type is currently in range. This allows scripts to automatically scan for a specific trader, resolve the contact, and trigger Interrogate without manual input. See the [[Traders#IC10 Automation|IC10 Automation]] section of the Traders reference for the <code>ContactTypeId</code> values for each trader type.

== Contacting a Trader ==

[[File:Guide_(trading)_example_landing_pad.jpg|none|400px|Sample layout showing the minimum required components to summon a trader]]

# Power up all components and ensure they are connected on the same network.
# At the [[Computer]], select the target landing pad and satellite dish.
# Set the dish power using the dial on the dish controls (a [[Labeller]] can set an exact value). Set it to at least the minimum wattage for the trader type you want to contact; contacts below their appearance threshold will not show up in the signal list. Once power is sufficient, any contacts in range will automatically begin resolving, drawing 10% of the dial setting. The resolve duration scales inversely with wattage delivered to the contact: more power shortens it, less power lengthens it. A contact that is barely visible due to low power or poor alignment may take considerably longer to resolve than one with strong wattage. Once a contact is resolved, its details become readable.
# Align the dish toward the contact using the horizontal and vertical buttons on the dish. Alignment affects the wattage reaching the contact, which determines how quickly negotiation completes. Interacting with the adjustment buttons shows the current angle in degrees. Aim to minimise the degree offset shown in the contact details.
# Once sufficient power is reaching the target through a combination of dish settings, the '''Interrogate''' button will become available. The dish immediately begins drawing its full dial wattage as a continuous power load for the duration of interogation. Interogation speed scales linearly with wattage: at the minimum required wattage the full base contact time applies; at twice the minimum it completes in half the time; and so on. Each trader visit randomizes both the minimum wattage threshold and the base contact time within the ranges below. If dish power drops below the minimum at any point, negotiation immediately cancels and progress resets to zero.
# When negotiation completes, the option to request landing becomes available.
# Send the landing request. The trader will arrive and dock at the designated pad.

[[File:Guide_(trading)_comms_terminal_annotation.jpg|none|400px|Sample layout showing the minimum required components to summon a trader]]

{| class="wikitable"
! Trader size !! Min. watts to appear !! Min. watts to negotiate !! Base contact time
|-
| Small (Utility / Basic) || 0 W || 25–30 W || 20–30 s
|-
| Medium || 20 W || 180–200 W || 1–2 min
|-
| Large / Exotics || 100–250 W || 6,000–8,000 W || 7–10 min
|}

A trader will '''never leave''' until you click Depart in the trade window. This means you can hold a trader on the pad indefinitely. However, while a trader occupies a slot, no other trader of the same slot type will spawn, so holding one trader delays the next visit of that type.

=== Storms ===

During a [[storm]], regular shuttle traders (Small, Medium, Large, and their gas variants) cannot land. If you attempt to land one during a storm, the game will inform you that landing is not possible. Plane-type traders (Medium Plane and Large Plane) are not affected by storms and can land normally. All trader types can depart during a storm regardless of ship type.

== Trading Interface ==

Interact with the [[Trader]] (or use a connected [[Vending Machine]]) to open the trade window. The interface shows:

* Items the trader has for sale: click to purchase
* Items the trader wants to buy: present qualifying items to sell them
* A Depart button to release the trader when done

You can move with the trade window open by holding Left Alt to regain mouse control.

Multiple Vending Machines (including refrigerated variants) can be connected to the same landing pad, allowing you to pre-stock sell items or pre-configure storage space for large-volume buy orders.

=== Credits and Payment ===

A [[Credit Card]] must be accessible to your character to complete any transaction. The game searches for a credit card in this order:

# Slots of your worn [[Uniform]]
# Left hand
# Right hand

The card does '''not''' need to be in the dedicated Credit Card slot of your uniform. However, cards stored in a [[Toolbelt]], [[Backpack]], or any other slot will '''not''' be found. Always keep your active credit card in your uniform or hand.

If you carry more than one Credit Card, the '''first''' card found in the above search order is used.

'''Important:''' If you sell a Credit Card to a trader, the credits stored on the card are lost. The trader pays only the item's sell price, not its balance. Avoid selling credit cards with a remaining balance.

== Gas and Liquid Trading ==

Bulk gas and liquid trades do not place items in a vending machine; they pump directly into the [[Landing Pad Gas Storage]] via the pad's atmospheric components. You need the following additional parts for gas or liquid trading:

* [[Landing Pad Gas Storage]]: holds gas and liquid on the pad (multiple tanks increase total capacity)
* [[Landing Pad Gas Input]] / [[Landing Pad Gas Output]]: connect pad storage to your base gas pipework
* [[Landing Pad Liquid Input]] / [[Landing Pad Liquid Output]]: connect pad storage to your base liquid pipework

Each input and output module has an integrated volume pump activated by a button on the device.

=== Buying Gas or Liquid ===

When you purchase bulk gas or liquid from a trader, it transfers into the [[Landing Pad]] Gas Storage. From there, pump it into your base pipework using the appropriate output module.

Gas and liquid share the same storage [[tank]]; take care not to mix incompatible substances. Flush the tank using the output module before switching to a different gas or liquid type.

'''Temperature matters:''' Each gas or liquid the trader sells has a specific temperature. The gas will arrive at that temperature and maintain it in the insulated storage tank. Check that your base pipework and storage can handle the incoming temperature; cryogenic liquids such as Liquid [[Nitrogen]] (−220°C) or Liquid [[Oxygen]] (−200°C) require appropriate infrastructure.

=== Selling Gas or Liquid ===

To sell gas or liquid to a trader, pump it into the Landing Pad Gas Storage before the trader arrives (or while they are docked). The trader will inspect the contents during the trade.

'''Temperature requirements:''' Each gas purchase the trader makes specifies an acceptable temperature range. Hover over the item icon in the trade window to see what temperature the trader requires. Gas that is outside the acceptable range will not be accepted. Chill or heat your gas to the required range before pumping it to the pad.

'''Purity:''' Many gas trades also require a minimum purity percentage. Gas that is diluted or contaminated may not meet the trader's conditions.

=== World-Specific Gas Purchases ===

The Gas Trader's buy list varies by [[world]]. Some gases are only purchased on specific [[worlds]] where they occur naturally in the environment:

* '''Ice (Oxite, [[Nitrice]], [[Water]], [[Volatiles]])''': purchased on most worlds, but not on [[Vulcan]] or [[Venus]] (where surface ice does not exist)
* '''[[Methane]] and [[Hydrogen]]''': purchased on Vulcan only
* '''Oxygen''': purchased on [[Europa]] only
* '''[[Carbon Dioxide]] (hot)''': purchased on Venus only
* '''Carbon Dioxide (cold)''': purchased on [[Mars]] only

== Notes and Tips ==

* '''Trader holdover:''' A trader never departs on its own. If you walk away without clicking Depart, the trader will remain docked indefinitely, blocking that contact slot.
* '''Vending machine bug:''' Adding items to a Vending Machine after a trader has been requested to land (but before they arrive) can cause the trade GUI to malfunction. If the trade window fails to open, save and reload, or deconstruct the [[Landing Pad Data and Power]] to force the trader to depart, then try again.
* '''Dish power and cable ratings:''' The Medium and Large Satellite Dish can draw enough power to burn low-voltage cables. Use appropriate cable types for your dish size.
* '''Plane runway clearance:''' The runway for plane traders must be completely unobstructed. Even small [[structures]] in the approach path will prevent landing.

== Exotics Traders and Atmosphere ==

The [[Genetics Trader]] and [[Rare Items Trader]] both use the Exotics contact slot, which requires 6,000–8,000 W to contact but imposes no [[atmosphere]] requirement for landing. The trader will dock at the pad regardless of what is outside.

However, once landed, the game continuously checks whether the atmosphere at the landing pad is suitable for a human trader. The ship's doors will only open (and trading will only be possible) when all of the following are true:

* '''[[Pressure]]:''' Within safe human limits (not vacuum, not dangerously high)
* '''Temperature:''' Between 0°C and 50°C
* '''Toxins:''' Toxic gas partial pressure below the warning threshold
* '''Oxygen:''' Sufficient oxygen partial pressure for breathing

If the atmosphere is not yet ready when the trader arrives, simply wait; the doors will open automatically as soon as conditions are met. If the atmosphere degrades mid-visit (e.g. due to a leak), the doors will close and trading will suspend until conditions are restored. The trader will not depart due to bad atmosphere alone.

This means you do '''not''' need to have the atmosphere ready before contacting or landing the trader, but you do need it ready before you can actually trade. A pressurized, oxygenated hangar or enclosed landing bay around the pad is the standard solution.

[[File:Trader Preview.png|thumb|right|Old preview image for the trading feature showing now deprecated landing pad]]

Traders are NPC ships that can be summoned to a [[Landing Pad]] using a [[Satellite Dish]] and [[Computer]]. Each trader type carries a fixed inventory of goods to sell to the player and a [[list of items]] or resources they will buy. Prices are fixed per visit; stock quantities for bulk goods scale with the ship size.

For a step-by-step guide to setting up and using the trading system, see [[Guide (Trading)]].

= Mechanics =

== Contact Slots ==

The Satellite Dish contacts traders through one of five ''contact slots''. Each slot determines which ship type arrives, the dish [[power]] required to make contact, how long negotiations take, how long the signal remains detectable, and the downtime before the next contact appears.

The '''min. watts to appear''' is the minimum wattage that must reach the contact for it to enter the signal list and begin resolving. Contacts below this threshold are invisible to the dish regardless of aim. Utility and Basic contacts have no floor and will appear at any detectable power level. The '''contact [[time]]''' is the base duration of the negotiation phase: how long the dish must continuously transmit after pressing Interrogate before the contact is established. This is the time at the minimum required wattage; supplying more power shortens it proportionally (double the minimum wattage halves the time). The value is randomised per visit within the range shown. The '''signal window''' is how long you have to detect and successfully interrogate the contact before it disappears. The '''downtime''' timer starts when a contact is removed (whether it expired uncontacted or was dismissed after a visit) and controls how long before the next contact for that slot appears.

{| class="wikitable"
! Slot !! Ship Type !! Min. Watts to Appear !! Min. Power to Contact !! Contact Time !! Signal Window !! Downtime !! Special Requirement
|-
| Utility || Small [[Shuttle]] || 0 W || 25–30 W || 20–30 s || ~20 min || 300–600 s (5–10 min) ||
|-
| Basic || Small Shuttle || 0 W || 25–30 W || 20–30 s || ~20 min || 30 s ||
|-
| Medium || Medium Shuttle or Plane || 20 W || 180–200 W || 60–120 s || ~20 min || 30–60 s ||
|-
| Large || Large Shuttle or Plane || 250 W || 6,000–8,000 W || 400–600 s || ~30 min || 60–120 s ||
|-
| Exotics || Small Shuttle || 100 W || 6,000–8,000 W || 400–600 s || ~30 min || 1,200–2,400 s (20–40 min) || Human [[atmosphere]] required to trade
|}

'''Utility vs. Basic:''' Both use an identical small shuttle and require the same dish power. The only functional difference is downtime: Utility traders have a 5–10 minute cooldown between visits, while Basic traders are available again within 30 seconds. [[Food]], Hardware, Consumables, and Appliance traders all use the Utility slot, making them significantly less frequent despite appearing to require the same [[equipment]].

'''Exotics:''' Requires high dish power and has the longest downtime (20–40 minutes). The Exotics slot is the only slot with any atmosphere requirement. Crucially, this does not block contact or landing; the trader will dock regardless of conditions. The atmosphere is instead checked continuously while the trader is landed to control the ship's doors: they open only when the pad has safe [[pressure]], temperature between 0°C and 50°C, low toxins, and sufficient [[oxygen]]. If conditions degrade mid-visit, the doors close and trading suspends until the atmosphere is restored.

'''One trader per slot at a time:''' Only one trader of each contact slot type (landed or in transit) can be present at any given time. A second trader of the same slot type will not appear until the current one has departed and cleared the area.

=== Landing Pad Requirements ===

Each shuttle type requires a minimum landing pad size. Plane variants additionally require a clear runway of a fixed length in the approach direction, indicated by the arrow on the [[Landing Pad Center]].

{| class="wikitable"
! Shuttle Type !! Pad Size !! Runway Length
|-
| Small (standard or gas) || 3×3 || None
|-
| Medium (standard or gas) || 5×5 || None
|-
| Medium Plane || 7×7 || 15 blocks
|-
| Large (standard or gas) || 6×6 || None
|-
| Large Plane || 9×9 || 20 blocks
|}

=== Storm Behaviour ===

During a [[storm]], regular shuttle traders (Small, Medium, and Large, including gas variants) cannot land. Plane traders (Medium Plane and Large Plane) are unaffected and can land normally during a storm. All trader types can depart during a storm regardless of ship type.

=== Bulk Scaling ===

Many goods are listed as bulk items. The quantity delivered or required scales with the contact slot's bulk multiplier. Stock and required quantities in the tables below are base values (at ×1.0 multiplier).

{| class="wikitable"
! Slot !! Bulk Multiplier
|-
| Utility || ×0.5
|-
| Basic || ×0.5
|-
| Medium || ×1.0
|-
| Large || ×2.0
|-
| Exotics || ×0.5
|}

For example, a sell item with a base stock of 800 (Bulk) delivers 400 units from a Basic or Utility ship, 800 from a Medium ship, and 1,600 from a Large ship.

== IC10 Automation ==

The [[Satellite Dish]] exposes a [[Logic|logic variable]] <code>ContactTypeId</code> that identifies the currently tracked trader type. This is a Unity [[hash]] of the trader's internal ID string and can be used with an [[Integrated Circuit (IC10)]] to automate dish tracking and contact selection. Values for each trader type:

{| class="wikitable"

Guide (Trading)

2026-04-12T18:17:13Z

Azera: Split tutorial information out of traders article

[[Category:Trading]]
[[Category:Guides]]

This guide covers how to set up a landing pad, contact traders, conduct trades, and handle gases and liquids. For a full reference on which traders exist, what they sell, and what they buy, see [[Traders]].

== What You Need ==

[[Trading]] requires the following items connected on the same [[power]] and data network:

* '''[[Landing Pad Center]]''': the core of the landing pad; determines approach direction (follow the arrow)
* '''[[Landing Pad Data and Power]]''': connects the landing pad structure to the data/power network
* '''[[Satellite Dish]]''': tracks and contacts trader ships; must be aligned toward the trader
* '''[[Computer]]''' with a '''[[Motherboard (Communication)]]''' installed: used to select a landing pad, target a dish, and initiate contact
* '''[[Credit Card]]''': required to complete any transaction
* '''[[Vending Machine]]''' or '''[[Vending Machine (Refrigerated)]]''' (optional but strongly recommended for bulk trades)

=== Landing Pad Layout ===

The [[Landing Pad Center]] is the tile on which the trader ship lands. The arrow on the centerpiece indicates the approach and departure direction; nothing must block this path. Plane-type traders additionally require a clear runway extending from the pad in the approach direction.

Pad size is determined by the trader's ship type. The minimum required pad area must be fully built out around the centerpiece:

{| class="wikitable"
! Ship Type !! Min. Pad Size !! Runway Required
|-
| Small [[Shuttle]] (standard or gas) || 3×3 || None
|-
| Medium Shuttle (standard or gas) || 5×5 || None
|-
| Medium Plane || 7×7 || 15 blocks
|-
| Large Shuttle (standard or gas) || 6×6 || None
|-
| Large Plane || 9×9 || 20 blocks
|}

You can build multiple landing pads connected to the same data network. Having one pad per contact slot type allows you to trade with all available trader types simultaneously. The Computer lets you select which pad and dish to use for each contact attempt.

=== Satellite Dish Power and Alignment ===

The Satellite Dish must be pointed toward the trader ship and powered sufficiently to make contact. Each contact slot type has a minimum watt requirement; see [[Traders#Contact Slots]] for the full table.

'''Alignment:''' Perfect alignment is not required. As long as the dish meets the minimum power threshold for the target trader, some angular offset is tolerated. Small shuttle traders (3×3 pad) are more forgiving of misalignment than larger traders.

'''Power budget:''' The dish has three distinct power states:
* '''Resolving''': when the dish is aimed at a contact and has enough power to detect it, the contact automatically begins resolving. The duration scales inversely with wattage delivered to the contact: more power shortens it, less power lengthens it. A contact detected with barely enough power to appear may take a very long [[time]] to resolve. During this phase the dish draws 10% of its dial setting.
* '''Interrogating''': once a contact is resolved, pressing '''Interrogate''' begins interrogation. The dish immediately draws its full dial wattage as a continuous load for the entire interrogation period.
* '''Idle''': all other times the dish draws only its base standby power.

Plan your cable and generator capacity around the full dial setting, since that is what the dish draws the moment you press Interrogate. This is especially important for large traders, where the dish must be set to 6,000 W or higher. Be careful with the Medium and [[Large Satellite Dish]]; at maximum output they can exceed the rating of low-voltage [[cables]], burning them out.

'''[[IC10]] automation:''' Dish tracking can be automated with an [[Integrated Circuit (IC10)]]. The IC10 can read and write the dish's <code>Horizontal</code> and <code>Vertical</code> [[logic]] variables directly to sweep the dish, and read <code>ContactTypeId</code> to identify which trader type is currently in range. This allows scripts to automatically scan for a specific trader, resolve the contact, and trigger Interrogate without manual input. See the [[Traders#IC10 Automation|IC10 Automation]] section of the Traders reference for the <code>ContactTypeId</code> values for each trader type.

== Contacting a Trader ==

# Power up all components and ensure they are connected on the same network.
# At the [[Computer]], select the target landing pad and satellite dish.
# Set the dish power using the dial on the dish controls (a [[Labeller]] can set an exact value). Set it to at least the minimum wattage for the trader type you want to contact; contacts below their appearance threshold will not show up in the signal list. Once power is sufficient, any contacts in range will automatically begin resolving, drawing 10% of the dial setting. The resolve duration scales inversely with wattage delivered to the contact: more power shortens it, less power lengthens it. A contact that is barely visible due to low power or poor alignment may take considerably longer to resolve than one with strong wattage. Once a contact is resolved, its details become readable.
# Align the dish toward the contact using the horizontal and vertical buttons on the dish. Alignment affects the wattage reaching the contact, which determines how quickly negotiation completes. Interacting with the adjustment buttons shows the current angle in degrees. Aim to minimise the degree offset shown in the contact details.
# Once sufficient power is reaching the target through a combination of dish settings, the '''Interrogate''' button will become available. The dish immediately begins drawing its full dial wattage as a continuous power load for the duration of interogation. Interogation speed scales linearly with wattage: at the minimum required wattage the full base contact time applies; at twice the minimum it completes in half the time; and so on. Each trader visit randomizes both the minimum wattage threshold and the base contact time within the ranges below. If dish power drops below the minimum at any point, negotiation immediately cancels and progress resets to zero.
# When negotiation completes, the option to request landing becomes available.
# Send the landing request. The trader will arrive and dock at the designated pad.

{| class="wikitable"
! Trader size !! Min. watts to appear !! Min. watts to negotiate !! Base contact time
|-
| Small (Utility / Basic) || 0 W || 25–30 W || 20–30 s
|-
| Medium || 20 W || 180–200 W || 1–2 min
|-
| Large / Exotics || 100–250 W || 6,000–8,000 W || 7–10 min
|}

A trader will '''never leave''' until you click Depart in the trade window. This means you can hold a trader on the pad indefinitely. However, while a trader occupies a slot, no other trader of the same slot type will spawn, so holding one trader delays the next visit of that type.

=== Storms ===

During a [[storm]], regular shuttle traders (Small, Medium, Large, and their gas variants) cannot land. If you attempt to land one during a storm, the game will inform you that landing is not possible. Plane-type traders (Medium Plane and Large Plane) are not affected by storms and can land normally. All trader types can depart during a storm regardless of ship type.

== Trading Interface ==

Interact with the [[Trader]] (or use a connected [[Vending Machine]]) to open the trade window. The interface shows:

* Items the trader has for sale: click to purchase
* Items the trader wants to buy: present qualifying items to sell them
* A Depart button to release the trader when done

You can move with the trade window open by holding Left Alt to regain mouse control.

Multiple Vending Machines (including refrigerated variants) can be connected to the same landing pad, allowing you to pre-stock sell items or pre-configure storage space for large-volume buy orders.

=== Credits and Payment ===

A [[Credit Card]] must be accessible to your character to complete any transaction. The game searches for a credit card in this order:

# Slots of your worn [[Uniform]]
# Left hand
# Right hand

The card does '''not''' need to be in the dedicated Credit Card slot of your uniform. However, cards stored in a [[Toolbelt]], [[Backpack]], or any other slot will '''not''' be found. Always keep your active credit card in your uniform or hand.

If you carry more than one Credit Card, the '''first''' card found in the above search order is used.

'''Important:''' If you sell a Credit Card to a trader, the credits stored on the card are lost. The trader pays only the item's sell price, not its balance. Avoid selling credit cards with a remaining balance.

== Gas and Liquid Trading ==

Bulk gas and liquid trades do not place items in a vending machine; they pump directly into the [[Landing Pad Gas Storage]] via the pad's atmospheric components. You need the following additional parts for gas or liquid trading:

* [[Landing Pad Gas Storage]]: holds gas and liquid on the pad (multiple tanks increase total capacity)
* [[Landing Pad Gas Input]] / [[Landing Pad Gas Output]]: connect pad storage to your base gas pipework
* [[Landing Pad Liquid Input]] / [[Landing Pad Liquid Output]]: connect pad storage to your base liquid pipework

Each input and output module has an integrated volume pump activated by a button on the device.

=== Buying Gas or Liquid ===

When you purchase bulk gas or liquid from a trader, it transfers into the [[Landing Pad]] Gas Storage. From there, pump it into your base pipework using the appropriate output module.

Gas and liquid share the same storage [[tank]]; take care not to mix incompatible substances. Flush the tank using the output module before switching to a different gas or liquid type.

'''Temperature matters:''' Each gas or liquid the trader sells has a specific temperature. The gas will arrive at that temperature and maintain it in the insulated storage tank. Check that your base pipework and storage can handle the incoming temperature; cryogenic liquids such as Liquid [[Nitrogen]] (−220°C) or Liquid [[Oxygen]] (−200°C) require appropriate infrastructure.

=== Selling Gas or Liquid ===

To sell gas or liquid to a trader, pump it into the Landing Pad Gas Storage before the trader arrives (or while they are docked). The trader will inspect the contents during the trade.

'''Temperature requirements:''' Each gas purchase the trader makes specifies an acceptable temperature range. Hover over the item icon in the trade window to see what temperature the trader requires. Gas that is outside the acceptable range will not be accepted. Chill or heat your gas to the required range before pumping it to the pad.

'''Purity:''' Many gas trades also require a minimum purity percentage. Gas that is diluted or contaminated may not meet the trader's conditions.

=== World-Specific Gas Purchases ===

The Gas Trader's buy list varies by [[world]]. Some gases are only purchased on specific [[worlds]] where they occur naturally in the environment:

* '''Ice (Oxite, [[Nitrice]], [[Water]], [[Volatiles]])''': purchased on most worlds, but not on [[Vulcan]] or [[Venus]] (where surface ice does not exist)
* '''[[Methane]] and [[Hydrogen]]''': purchased on Vulcan only
* '''Oxygen''': purchased on [[Europa]] only
* '''[[Carbon Dioxide]] (hot)''': purchased on Venus only
* '''Carbon Dioxide (cold)''': purchased on [[Mars]] only

== Notes and Tips ==

* '''Trader holdover:''' A trader never departs on its own. If you walk away without clicking Depart, the trader will remain docked indefinitely, blocking that contact slot.
* '''Vending machine bug:''' Adding items to a Vending Machine after a trader has been requested to land (but before they arrive) can cause the trade GUI to malfunction. If the trade window fails to open, save and reload, or deconstruct the [[Landing Pad Data and Power]] to force the trader to depart, then try again.
* '''Dish power and cable ratings:''' The Medium and Large Satellite Dish can draw enough power to burn low-voltage cables. Use appropriate cable types for your dish size.
* '''Plane runway clearance:''' The runway for plane traders must be completely unobstructed. Even small [[structures]] in the approach path will prevent landing.

== Exotics Traders and Atmosphere ==

The [[Genetics Trader]] and [[Rare Items Trader]] both use the Exotics contact slot, which requires 6,000–8,000 W to contact but imposes no [[atmosphere]] requirement for landing. The trader will dock at the pad regardless of what is outside.

However, once landed, the game continuously checks whether the atmosphere at the landing pad is suitable for a human trader. The ship's doors will only open (and trading will only be possible) when all of the following are true:

* '''[[Pressure]]:''' Within safe human limits (not vacuum, not dangerously high)
* '''Temperature:''' Between 0°C and 50°C
* '''Toxins:''' Toxic gas partial pressure below the warning threshold
* '''Oxygen:''' Sufficient oxygen partial pressure for breathing

If the atmosphere is not yet ready when the trader arrives, simply wait; the doors will open automatically as soon as conditions are met. If the atmosphere degrades mid-visit (e.g. due to a leak), the doors will close and trading will suspend until conditions are restored. The trader will not depart due to bad atmosphere alone.

This means you do '''not''' need to have the atmosphere ready before contacting or landing the trader, but you do need it ready before you can actually trade. A pressurized, oxygenated hangar or enclosed landing bay around the pad is the standard solution.

= Description =
The Liquid Vacuum is a [[battery]]-powered handheld tool for collecting and dispensing liquids directly from and into the game [[world]]. It holds up to 500 liters internally and transfers up to 5 liters per atmospheric [[tick]]. It is useful for cleaning up liquid spills or moving liquids to locations not easily reached by piping.

= Usage =
Insert a battery cell into the battery slot to [[power]] the device. Toggle the mode using the interact menu — Inward mode draws liquid from the world [[atmosphere]] into the internal [[tank]], Outward mode releases it back into the world. Hold the primary use button to operate the vacuum while it is switched on.

When the internal tank is full (≥99%), Inward mode will stop and show an error state. When the tank is empty, Outward mode will similarly stop. To transfer collected liquid into a [[pipe]] network, [[switch]] to Outward mode and hold the vacuum over a [[Passive Liquid Inlet]].

{{Stationpedia|Consumable battery that recharges your suit battery. If used on a HEM-Droid it will recharge the HEM-Droids internal battery.}}

= Description =
The Disposable [[Battery]] Charger is a single-use consumable that transfers 54,000 units of stored [[energy]] into a suit battery or [[robot]] internal battery. It is used directly from the hand and is consumed immediately upon completing the charge action. It can be used on the player's own suit or on another player or HEM-Droid.

= Usage =
Hold the Disposable [[Battery Charger]] in hand and right-click to charge your own suit battery. To charge another player or a HEM-Droid, use it on them directly. The action takes 1 second to complete. After use the charger's stored energy is fully depleted, but the item remains in hand and can be recycled for a portion of its material costs.

When targeting a robot (HEM-Droid), the charger will attempt to fill the robot's internal battery first. If the internal battery is already at 99% or above, it falls back to charging the robot's suit battery instead. The charger will not activate if the target battery is already at 99% or above.

| sorting_class = SortingClass.Tools
}}

= Description =
Adhesive [[Insulation]] is a consumable material used to upgrade uninsulated [[pipe]] [[structures]] to their insulated equivalents in place, preserving all existing connections. It is applied using a wrench as a secondary tool.

= Usage =
Hold Adhesive Insulation in the active hand and a [[Wrench]] in the off-hand, then use on a compatible pipe or vent structure. The action takes 0.5 seconds and consumes one unit of Adhesive Insulation. The structure is replaced in-place with its insulated variant.

Compatible structures include:

* Gas [[pipes]]
* Liquid pipes
* [[Passive Vent]]
* In-Line Gas Tanks (1×1, 1×2, 1×3)
* In-Line Liquid Tanks (1×1, 1×2, 1×3)

= Notes =

Adhesive insulation can be applied to the Passive Vent Valve, but because there is no insulated variant it instead incorrectly upgrades to an [[Insulated Passive Vent]]

The new insulated structure inherits the color of the structure it replaces. For example, a default gas pipe is yellow, and the resulting insulated gas pipe will also be yellow.

= Annoying automatic wiki links=
Dear wiki admin! Thank you for your hard work! It is a huge boon to have such well maintained game-related wiki which is not hosted on some bloated ad-ridden monstrosity like the fandom is.

However I have a little complain: more often than not when I edit a page after submitting it and checking how it looks I find out that my edit not only has my words in it, but also some random words got changed into wiki links. Those changes were not present in the preview mode, nor it was shown at ''show changes'' before final submit, but they do show in the history afterwards as attributed to me. Sometimes those automated links are legitimate (but redundant and make a page noisy), sometimes they are outright silly, like the word "time" in this page [[https://stationeers-wiki.com/index.php?title=WikiUpdate&oldid=26731#New_Admin]]. Anyways it is uncomfortable to have my edits cluttered with some unprompted and unrelated alterations even if it were of a good quality (but it is not).

Can this feature be turned off please? I looked trough my settings but didn't found anything about it. [[User:Legolegs|Legolegs]] ([[User talk:Legolegs|talk]]) 19:46, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

: I was just looking into this myself earlier today for the exact same reason as I kept seeing [[energy]] and [[time]] autolink. This is not a built-in behavior of MediaWiki and is caused by the LinkTitles plugin that's installed. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:LinkTitles
: I'm a bit on the fence as I see that as a useful feature in most cases, but on the other hand it's annoying to edit an older page for one minor correction and see six new links appear in the changelog [[User:Azera|Azera]] ([[User talk:Azera|talk]]) 20:01, 9 April 2026 (UTC)

{{Stationpedia|No amount of automation is complete without some way of moving different items to different parts of a system. The [[Xigo (Faction)|Xigo]] A2B sorter can be programmed via a computer with a [[Sorter Motherboard]] to direct various items into different chute networks. Filtered items are always passed out the righthand side of the sorter, while non filtered items continue straight through.}}

{{Distinguish|Logic Sorter}}

==Description==

'''Mode 0 (Split):''' Items alternate between output lanes automatically. The Output property switches between 0 and 1 after each item.

'''Mode 1 ([[Filter]]):''' Requires a [[computer]] with a [[Sorter Motherboard]]. Whitelisted items exit one lane, all others exit the alternate lane. When facing the output side ([[power]] [[switch]] on your right), whitelisted items exit left, rejected items exit right. '''Note:''' Some players report issues with the Sorter [[Motherboard]] interface. Consider using Mode 2 ([[Logic]]) with [[IC10]] as a more reliable alternative.

'''Mode 2 (Logic):''' The sorter waits for [[IC10]] or logic chips to set the Output parameter (0 or 1) before releasing each item. After the item exits, Output resets to -1 automatically. Your controller must set Output for every item - this is intended behavior, not a bug. See [[#Example IC10 sorting script|Example IC10 sorting script]] below for a working implementation.

'''Output orientation:''' When facing outputs with power switch on your right: Output 0 exits right (near power switch), Output 1 exits left.

The result is a machine described by some as 'the only PC likely to survive our collision with a black hole', while other, less appreciative users regard it as sharing most of its technological DNA with a cheese grater.

==Purpose==
A Blast Door is a powered [[Portal]] that will withstand extreme forces.

==Characteristics==
* It has no limit to the [[Pressure]] it can constrain.
* It has a very high resistance to [[Damage]].
* It consumes 25W of [[Power]] per [[Tick|Tick]].
* It can be used as an [[Guide (Airlock)|Airlock]] portal.
* It has a separate [[Power Port]] and [[Data Port]].
* It has indicator lights.
* If both unlocked and unpowered, it can be manually operated using a [[Crowbar]].
* If enslaved by a [[Circuitboard (Airlock)|regular]] or a [[Circuitboard (Advanced Airlock)|advanced]] airlock circuit, it cannot be operated manually.

As long as the door is both unlocked and unpowered, it can be manually operated using a [[Crowbar|crowbar]].

==User Interface==
A Blast Door provides the following user interface:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Name || Type !! Function
|-
| Lock || Indicator || Turns red when locked and green when unlocked
|-
|}

Since a Blast Door has no keypads to operate, they must be controlled by one of:
* [[Circuitboard (Advanced Airlock)]]
* [[Circuitboard (Airlock)]]
* [[Circuitboard (Door Control)|Door Control]]
* [[Logic Writer]]
* [[Logic Motherboard]] in a [[Computer]]

==Construction==
A Blast Door is constructed using 1 x [[Kit (Blast Door)]].

==Deconstruction==
A Blast Door can be deconstructed at any time using a [[Hand Drill]].

{{Stationpedia|Motherboards are connected to [[Computer]]s to perform various technical functions. The Norsec-designed K-cops 10-10 sorter motherboard permits Stationeers to control which items a [[Sorter]] does, and does not, permit to pass.}}

The Sorter Motherboard is a [[Motherboard]] that can be placed in the front hatch of a [[Computer]]. This allows the user to set a white list for the various sorters that are connected to the same data network. You can use the drop menu's to select the items you want the sorter to [[filter]] out, or choose a class at the top of the list for all of a particular item such as ore. Or you can choose a specific item from the list such as [[Iron]] Ore. This is a one [[time]] setup action. Once the sorters have been programed, you can remove the computer entirely and the sorters will remember their settings and whitelists until they are changed again.

*NOTE: There is an issue in [[multiplayer]] where the whitelist will not repopulate on the screen when a client connects to the server. While the list may be blank, the sorters will still work with their previously programmed whitelists.
