Note: !!THERE IS A CV AND A BA VERSOIN OF THIS!! If you find any issues please let me know.

If you like the design, please consider taking a moment to rate it.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my work.

Classification: Space Station
Arcadia Research Station:

A multi level research station capable of placement in orbital locations or deep space.
The structure includes a 3 level docking spike.
Crew quarters, medical, and dining facilities.
The upper levels are dedicated to research facilities in open space enabling your researchers to work in comfort with enough space to accommodate visiting colleagues.
As always, weapons systems can be attached to your liking and as needed on your case by case requirements.


Dev Notes:
This is mainly a note to myself. Use with caution AND BACKUP YOUR BP!

Hex editors can make a mess of things if you are not careful. Use at your own risk. You are responsible for any issues that may occur.

That being said. For the more adventurous read on.
Blueprint conversion:
It is possible to convert BP’s between types. Thanks goes out to Steam member orb for originally posting this. It made my life way easier.
Until the Empyrion team officially adds the feature the only way I have found to convert a bp between types is to edit the HEX code.
You will need a HEX code editor and will want to backup the BP before you alter it.
In the end messing with HEX codes night mess up the BP, so as above back it up.
I use the HxD Free hex editor
Open the .epb in a hex editor
Change the code (BYTE) at offset 8 from its current number to the number you want it to be.

BA = 0x02 ( This may be read as 02, same for all the other 0x numbers below)
CV = 0x08
SV = 0x04
HV = 0x10

Example: (Your file will look different. You will want the number at offset 08 in this case 02 )

--------------------------------------------- V
Offset (h) 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F
00000000 45 52 94 78 0B 00 00 00 02 01 32 7D 69 00 00 00

Enter the following

Block types are

Hull
HullFull
HullThin
HullArmoredFull
HullArmoredThin
HullCombatFull
HullCombatThin

Hull is for designs created before 15 API 2016, and only works for full blocks. You can tell if you have these if you try to upgrade with the multitool, it says no upgrade, and the block is not combat.



No other types are supported
