Will we be able to buy parts of ships as well, so that we can build our own ships from them? Specifically the non-human ships that we can't buy from a storefront and have had no luck capturing in the wild.asked by Jasticus
TL;DRPlayers won't be able to build ships from parts at the start, though they can buy and add equipment, possibly adapted alien items; the future is uncertain.
That's an interesting question. Really the way the ships work is that you sort of buy a hull and then you can customize it, add different items and equipment to it. But we're not really right now set up to sort of buy, I don't know, a rear wing and then a fender from a different ship and put them all together and make some hybrid ship. So I'm not sure if we'll be able to build ships from parts. Not at the beginning. We definitely won't be able to build ships from parts. Who knows down the road? But you certainly will be able to buy different equipment and items and add them to your ship, and some potentially could be an alien item that you would have to have adapted to work on your ship. So maybe sort of a small combination of this, but not to the extent that you can build a ship wholly out of just sort of junk parts.
