The outpost is a small station that processes raw materials. It holds a Smelter, a Refinery, a Mixer and a Dock, which together make plates, glass, fuel and concrete.
Construction
The hull builds it from iron and silicate ore, so it needs no made goods. A Constructor can build one too. The Workshop, which makes parts and ships, is the only other station the hull builds.
Power
A new outpost has no power until a generator is built. Its generators burn fuel from its hold.
Dock
Its dock takes ships up to a frigate. Larger ships, such as the excavator, tanker, hauler and deep miner, dock at a station with a larger dock, such as a Port; ships larger than a cruiser, such as the flagship, dock only at an Anchorage.
