Description

This device can be used by ships or stations to anchor themselves to a fixed point in space. If the ship or station is bumped out of place, it will automatically drift back to its anchored position.


Operation

Activate the Gravitational Anchor to anchor your ship or station. The point your vessel is at when you activate the Anchor is the point it will be anchored to. While active, the Gravitational Anchor drains 50 power.


Release Information

This item was released in September of 2016 from update 065

We’ve also added a gravitational anchor device which you can use to anchor ships and stations to a single location. This will make it easier for you to create permanent bases in space. The anchor will make any ship or station function like any other generated station when activated. If the station gets bumped away it will float back to the original position where the anchor was first activated.
