Orbital Trade Station

Description
This is my entry for the station design competition.

It is an Orbital or Deep Space "Executive" style trade station and boasts a comfortable, pressurized atrium with a store, vending machine, ATM and contract block in the center, as well as plenty of couches to enjoy the spectacular views through the 360 degree windows.

It has 4 connectors in total with 2 docking ports for large ships and 2 landing pads for smaller ships and those with belly mounted connectors. Each port/pad is accessed though its own clearly labeled airlock, which also happens to have a view!

Finally, this station features an Executive Lounge on the upper level complete with 2 beds, lockers, a kitchen, bathroom and a board room table for those important faction meetings, all finished in rich mahogany. Classy.

Hope you like it!

Don't forget to hit the thumbs up button! It is much appreciated

Update: I have recently scrapped the station as of spending 20mil on it and getting nothing in return in days. Not even a certain visitor, and also it ran out of zone chips and fell into disrepair.

XD Well if you'd like to see just watch out I'm in a pirate faction but since it has a zone as long as you make it in that zone it's fine. Also there's been a lot of fighting going on. My ship got blew up right as I left the station's zone. Anyways keep on building!

nice! glad to hear it. i was playing on CA#1 as well and had built the MK2 version of this station for my squad although i havent logged on in some time so its probably been wiped by now.

I modified this to work on Keen's server World CA #1 and is currently orbiting the moon. I have changed the luxury lounge with a bar and added signs. The safe zone is located where the large container was and move d that down replacing a hydro tank. Thanks for responding I love this! (It won the choice of my station vs 3 others.)

Diamonder, this build was originally for Keen's trade station competition a few years ago and no safe zone's were allowed in the build. But when i use this build on servers i usually do add a safe zone either on the bottom down by the hydro tanks or else up on top. in fact i have a MK2 version that is updated with the newest DLC blocks and features a third floor with a medbay. i may post it if people are interested.

Why is there no safe zone? I think every station like this should have one for servers.

Sounds good. Thanks a bunch, I appreciate it!

Hello Meridius_IX / Lucas , sounds interesting. Yes, you have my permission to use my Orbital Trade Station in your mod so long as you credit me for my work.

Howdy! I was wondering if I might be able to use a modified version of this build (with credit to you) in an upcoming NPC mod I have in the works. I'm working on some expanded economy offerings that include shipyard controls, suit upgrades, and more as the systems expand. :D

Whenever it's convenient for you, please let me know if it's ok to use this. I won't include something I didn't get permission to use.

I built the ladder all the way down, and I don't think it interfered much at all. Just my thoughts.
