Stations, after being liberated or discovered by the player, offer a variety of services, from creating safe spaces for the player with Atmosphere Generator Stations, over creating, upgrading, storing or selling parts at Factory, Upgrade, Warehouse and Scrapyard Stations respectively, all the way up to asteroid mining at Refinery Stations, or taking mail delivery quests at Apartment Stations. F1 brings you to main menu, F2 to the map, F3 to system settings, and F4 to the help section. When used outside of a menu, the F2-F4 keys will bring you to the same menu as they would in main menu. Tab and Escape perform the same function as F1. The menu consists of the main window in the center, and all currently available inputs, the corresponding keys, and what they do down the sides of the screen.į1 will always move back up to the previous menu screen, or escape the menu if at the top screen.
