Hyperdrive

2026-07-16T11:28:15Z

Twille: values

'''Hyperdrives''' allow a starship to enter hyperspace and travel vast distances quickly. They can be detected with the sign text [hyperdrive].

Two [[chetherite]] must be in each hopper of the hyperdrive to jump. The chetherite is consumed upon a successful jump. If there is not enough chetherite, the ship will fail to jump.

Larger hyperdrives consume more chetherite (as they have more hoppers), but also have a faster travel time in hyperspace. Hyperdrive warm up times can be reduced by owning [[Claimable System|Claimable Systems]].

A [[Navigation Computer]] is required for most ships to enter hyperspace.

Starship Weapons

2026-07-10T16:43:54Z

Twille: changed heavy turret stats to reflect latest dominion update

'''Starship weapons''' are used to deal damage to other starships, players, and entities.

Light Weapons are fired by left clicking with a controller. Multiple light weapons can be fired at once if you are not using [[weaponsets]] and [[nodes]] to control which weapons fire.

Heavy Weapons are fired by right clicking with a controller after a brief charge-up delay. Only one type of heavy weapon can be fired at a time, so ships with multiple heavy weapons must control them using weaponsets and nodes. Attempting to fire more than one weapon will jam the systems.

Turrets can fire in any direction that they have line of sight in. All turrets except for the [[Tri Turret]] are light weapons. Tri Turrets and [[Point Defense Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>. Point Defense Turrets are light weapons and cannot be fired manually.

Some weapons such as [[Plasma Cannons]], [[Interceptor Cannons]], and [[Torpedoes]], can only fire forwards. The direction of fire for these weapons is the opposite direction of maximum thrust.

Players take 5 hearts of true damage when hit with any starship weapon.

Ship weapons can be hidden under a block of armor and still fire. That is, if say a gunship has a phaser hidden behind a block of terracotta, the phaser will still be able to fire through that block.

= Tech 1 Light Weapons =
Light weapons have a comparatively high fire rate and low damage. Fire by left clicking with a clock. These weapons are used by Tech 1 ships and the Tech 2 [[Interdictor Gunship|Interdictor Gunships]], [[Interdictor Corvette|Interdictor Corvettes]], [[Interdictor Destroyer|Interdictor Destroyers]], and [[Black Ops Frigate]].

'''Plasma cannons''' are the best primary weapon for small ships; they deal great damage and have a good fire rate. However, they can only fire forwards, and are limited by range and poor arcs of fire, making ships that can only mount plasmas (like Starfighters and Tackle Gunships) very vulnerable to fast adversaries armed with turrets or pulse cannons.

'''Pulse cannons''' can only be used on [[Gunships]] and [[Corvettes]] and are excellent against [[starfighters]] and other small, fast ships, thanks to their incredible arcs and accuracy. They pair up very well for anti-fighter duties alongside Heavy Lasers.

Their drawback is a lack of raw damage output. This is usually made up by superior arcs compared to plasma and laser cannons, but in a head-on engagement a gunship will have trouble against a starfighter.

'''Heavy turrets''' are larger turrets that excel in ship-to-ship combat with larger ships with its dual projectiles. The lowermost sponge block (where the sign is attached) may be any block. Heavy turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret]. They do not automatically fire and must be manually controlled with weapon sets, which are accomplished with node signs placed on the turret signs.

Despite their name, they are classed as light weapons, and fire with left-click.

'''Quad Turrets''' are capital-grade manual weapons that deal devastating damage to both shields and blocks. They fire once every three seconds, and the projectiles travel very slowly. They deal crippling damage to most ships they hit, however their slow speed allows for smaller ships to dodge their fire. Quad Turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret].

'''Ion turrets''' are unique manual weapons that disrupt systems in an 8x8 cube around where their shots impact. This disruption disables thrusters in the area for 5 seconds, reducing cruise speed for a time. This mechanic has no effect on ships using direct control. Ion turret projectiles are very slow and also deal a modest amount of shield damage, and minimal hull damage. Ion turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret].

Ion turrets require [[Charged Shell|Charged Shells]] as ammunition.

Heavy weapons are weapons operating on an alternate weapons system. Hold right click to activate. Most heavy weapons consume ammo from a [[Magazine]].

You cannot fire more than one heavy weapon at a time. Attempting to do so will jam the ship's systems and prevent all heavy weapons from firing. Circumventing this issue is done with node signs.

'''Tri-turrets''' are hefty artillery pieces that deal great damage. Due to the projectile's slow speed, they are most useful against the largest ships.

The lowermost sponge block (where the sign is attached) may be any block; sponge is used as a placeholder. Tri-turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret], just like any other turret.

Tri-turrets can be noded with signs to fire automatically or manually. This is done by placing a [node] sign on the turret sign.

= Tech 2 Weapons =
Tech 2 Weapons are an addition in the [[Dominion Update]], which are used on most Tech 2 ships. The only Tech 2 ships not mostly or entirely using Tech 2 weapons are the [[Interdictor Gunship]], [[Interdictor Corvette|Corvette]], and [[Interdictor Destroyer|Destroyer]], and the [[Black Ops Frigate]]. Most Tech 2 weapons have a higher damage than similar Tech 1 weapons. On top of that a number of these weapons provide different status effects, and there are even some that actually heal ships, called logistics weapons, which can be outfitted on the [[Logistics Corvette]] and the [[Logistics Cruiser]]. 

== Tech 2 Light Weapons ==
Tech 2 Light weapons work the same way as Tech 1 Light weapons, although some may require ammo and therefore a [[magazine]] to fire, in the same way that the Tech 1 Quad Cannons and Ion Turrets, as well as most heavy weapons do. In addition to traditional offensive power, many of these weapons also provide certain status effects to the ship you hit, and there are even logistics weapons that heal ships. All Tech 2 ships use some form of Tech 2 weapon with the exceptions of the [[Interdiction Destroyer]], [[Interdiction Corvette]], and [[Black Ops Frigate]].

=== Light Weapons List ===

* [[Scram]]
* [[Gauss Cannon]]
* [[Light Logistics Cannon]]
* [[Autocannon]]
* [[Assault Turret]]
* [[Light Missile Launcher]]
* [[Rapid Heavy Missile Launcher]] 
* [[Heavy Logistics Cannon]]
* [[Anti-Capital Turret]] (ACAP Turret)

== Tech 2 Heavy Weapons ==
Tech 2 Heavy weapons are the heavy weapons for Tech 2 ships. Being heavy weapons they have to be charged up before use, with some having lengthy charge up times. All Tech 2 ships use some form of Tech 2 weapon with the exceptions of the [[Interdictor Destroyer]], [[Interdictor Corvette]], [[Interdiction Gunship|Interdictor Gunship]], and [[Black Ops Frigate]]. The only Tech 2 weapon that can be fitted on Tech 1 ships is the probe, which is explained in its section.

=== Heavy Weapons List ===

* [[Advanced Probe Launcher]] (on a technicality)
* [[EMP Missile]]
* [[Neutralizer]]
* [[Artillery]]
* [[Webifier]]
* [[Command Burst]]
* [[Heavy Neutralizer]]
* [[Arsenal Missile Launcher]]
* [[Thermonuclear Missile Launcher]]
* [[Capital Command Burst]]
* [[Doomsday Laser]]

== Defunct Weapons ==
Weapons that no are in operation after updates (as of July 2nd 2026, most were from the [[Dominion Update]] and it's aftermath):

* [[Light Turret|Light Turrets]]
* [[Missile Swarm Launcher]]
* [[Interceptor Cannon]]

Starship Weapons

2026-07-05T20:26:37Z

Twille: With the release of Dominion Laser Cannons were changed to the values now listed. Finally updating these

'''Starship weapons''' are used to deal damage to other starships, players, and entities.

Light Weapons are fired by left clicking with a controller. Multiple light weapons can be fired at once if you are not using [[weaponsets]] and [[nodes]] to control which weapons fire.

Heavy Weapons are fired by right clicking with a controller after a brief charge-up delay. Only one type of heavy weapon can be fired at a time, so ships with multiple heavy weapons must control them using weaponsets and nodes. Attempting to fire more than one weapon will jam the systems.

Turrets can fire in any direction that they have line of sight in. All turrets except for the [[Tri Turret]] are light weapons. Tri Turrets and [[Point Defense Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>. Point Defense Turrets are light weapons and cannot be fired manually.

Some weapons such as [[Plasma Cannons]], [[Interceptor Cannons]], and [[Torpedoes]], can only fire forwards. The direction of fire for these weapons is the opposite direction of maximum thrust.

Players take 5 hearts of true damage when hit with any starship weapon.

Ship weapons can be hidden under a block of armor and still fire. That is, if say a gunship has a phaser hidden behind a block of terracotta, the phaser will still be able to fire through that block.

= Tech 1 Light Weapons =
Light weapons have a comparatively high fire rate and low damage. Fire by left clicking with a clock. These weapons are used by Tech 1 ships and the Tech 2 [[Interdictor Gunship|Interdictor Gunships]], [[Interdictor Corvette|Interdictor Corvettes]], [[Interdictor Destroyer|Interdictor Destroyers]], and [[Black Ops Frigate]].

'''Plasma cannons''' are the best primary weapon for small ships; they deal great damage and have a good fire rate. However, they can only fire forwards, and are limited by range and poor arcs of fire, making ships that can only mount plasmas (like Starfighters and Tackle Gunships) very vulnerable to fast adversaries armed with turrets or pulse cannons.

'''Pulse cannons''' can only be used on [[Gunships]] and [[Corvettes]] and are excellent against [[starfighters]] and other small, fast ships, thanks to their incredible arcs and accuracy. They pair up very well for anti-fighter duties alongside Heavy Lasers.

Their drawback is a lack of raw damage output. This is usually made up by superior arcs compared to plasma and laser cannons, but in a head-on engagement a gunship will have trouble against a starfighter.

'''Heavy turrets''' are larger turrets that excel in ship-to-ship combat with larger ships with its dual projectiles. The lowermost sponge block (where the sign is attached) may be any block. Heavy turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret]. They do not automatically fire and must be manually controlled with weapon sets, which are accomplished with node signs placed on the turret signs.

Despite their name, they are classed as light weapons, and fire with left-click.

'''Ion turrets''' are unique manual weapons that disrupt systems in an 8x8 cube around where their shots impact. This disruption disables thrusters in the area for 5 seconds, reducing cruise speed for a time. This mechanic has no effect on ships using direct control. Ion turret projectiles are very slow and also deal a modest amount of shield damage, and minimal hull damage. Ion turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret].

Ion turrets require Charged Shells as ammunition.

'''Tri-turrets''' are hefty artillery pieces that deal great damage. Due to the projectile's slow speed, they are most useful against the largest ships.

The lowermost sponge block (where the sign is attached) may be any block; sponge is used as a placeholder. Tri-turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret], just like any other turret.

Tri-turrets can be noded with signs to fire automatically or manually. This is done by placing a [node] sign on the turret sign.

= Tech 2 Weapons =
Tech 2 Weapons are an addition in the [[Dominion Update]], which are used on most Tech 2 ships. The only Tech 2 ships not mostly or entirely using Tech 2 weapons are the [[Interdictor Gunship]], [[Interdictor Corvette|Corvette]], and [[Interdictor Destroyer|Destroyer]], and the [[Black Ops Frigate]]. Most Tech 2 weapons have a higher damage than similar Tech 1 weapons. On top of that a number of these weapons provide different status effects, and there are even some that actually heal ships, called logistics weapons, which can be outfitted on the [[Logistics Corvette]] and the [[Logistics Cruiser]]. 

== Tech 2 Light Weapons ==
Tech 2 Light weapons work the same way as Tech 1 Light weapons, although some may require ammo and therefore a [[magazine]] to fire, in the same way that the Tech 1 Quad Cannons and Ion Turrets, as well as most heavy weapons do. In addition to traditional offensive power, many of these weapons also provide certain status effects to the ship you hit, and there are even logistics weapons that heal ships. All Tech 2 ships use some form of Tech 2 weapon with the exceptions of the [[Interdiction Destroyer]], [[Interdiction Corvette]], and [[Black Ops Frigate]].

=== Light Weapons List ===

* [[Scram]]
* [[Gauss Cannon]]
* [[Light Logistics Cannon]]
* [[Autocannon]]
* [[Assault Turret]]
* [[Light Missile Launcher]]
* [[Rapid Heavy Missile Launcher]] 
* [[Heavy Logistics Cannon]]
* [[Anti-Capital Turret]] (ACAP Turret)

== Tech 2 Heavy Weapons ==
Tech 2 Heavy weapons are the heavy weapons for Tech 2 ships. Being heavy weapons they have to be charged up before use, with some having lengthy charge up times. All Tech 2 ships use some form of Tech 2 weapon with the exceptions of the [[Interdictor Destroyer]], [[Interdictor Corvette]], [[Interdiction Gunship|Interdictor Gunship]], and [[Black Ops Frigate]]. The only Tech 2 weapon that can be fitted on Tech 1 ships is the probe, which is explained in its section.

=== Heavy Weapons List ===

* [[Advanced Probe Launcher]] (on a technicality)
* [[EMP Missile]]
* [[Neutralizer]]
* [[Artillery]]
* [[Webifier]]
* [[Command Burst]]
* [[Heavy Neutralizer]]
* [[Arsenal Missile Launcher]]
* [[Thermonuclear Missile Launcher]]
* [[Capital Command Burst]]
* [[Doomsday Laser]]

== Defunct Weapons ==
Weapons that no are in operation after updates (as of July 2nd 2026, most were from the [[Dominion Update]] and it's aftermath):

* [[Light Turret|Light Turrets]]
* [[Missile Swarm Launcher]]
* [[Interceptor Cannon]]

Starship Weapons

Twille: With Dominion, Pulses were changed to the values now listed. Finally got around to updating

'''Starship weapons''' are used to deal damage to other starships, players, and entities.

Light Weapons are fired by left clicking with a controller. Multiple light weapons can be fired at once if you are not using [[weaponsets]] and [[nodes]] to control which weapons fire.

Heavy Weapons are fired by right clicking with a controller after a brief charge-up delay. Only one type of heavy weapon can be fired at a time, so ships with multiple heavy weapons must control them using weaponsets and nodes. Attempting to fire more than one weapon will jam the systems.

Turrets can fire in any direction that they have line of sight in. All turrets except for the [[Tri Turret]] are light weapons. Tri Turrets and [[Point Defense Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>. Point Defense Turrets are light weapons and cannot be fired manually.

Some weapons such as [[Plasma Cannons]], [[Interceptor Cannons]], and [[Torpedoes]], can only fire forwards. The direction of fire for these weapons is the opposite direction of maximum thrust.

Players take 5 hearts of true damage when hit with any starship weapon.

Ship weapons can be hidden under a block of armor and still fire. That is, if say a gunship has a phaser hidden behind a block of terracotta, the phaser will still be able to fire through that block.

= Tech 1 Light Weapons =
Light weapons have a comparatively high fire rate and low damage. Fire by left clicking with a clock. These weapons are used by Tech 1 ships and the Tech 2 [[Interdictor Gunship|Interdictor Gunships]], [[Interdictor Corvette|Interdictor Corvettes]], [[Interdictor Destroyer|Interdictor Destroyers]], and [[Black Ops Frigate]].

'''Plasma cannons''' are the best primary weapon for small ships; they deal great damage and have a good fire rate.

'''Pulse cannons''' can only be used on [[Gunships]] and [[Corvettes]] and are excellent against [[starfighters]] and other small, fast ships, thanks to their incredible arcs and accuracy. They pair up very well for anti-fighter duties alongside Heavy Lasers.

Their drawback is a lack of raw damage output. This is usually made up by superior arcs compared to plasma and laser cannons, but in a head-on engagement a gunship will have trouble against a starfighter.

'''Heavy turrets''' are larger turrets that excel in ship-to-ship combat with larger ships with its dual projectiles. The lowermost sponge block (where the sign is attached) may be any block. Heavy turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret]. They do not automatically fire and must be manually controlled with weapon sets, which are accomplished with node signs placed on the turret signs.

'''Ion turrets''' are unique manual weapons that disrupt systems in an 8x8 cube around where their shots impact. This disruption disables thrusters in the area for 5 seconds, reducing cruise speed for a time. This mechanic has no effect on ships using direct control. Ion turret projectiles are very slow and also deal a modest amount of shield damage, and minimal hull damage. Ion turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret].

Ion turrets require Charged Shells as ammunition.

'''Tri-turrets''' are hefty artillery pieces that deal great damage. Due to the projectile's slow speed, they are most useful against the largest ships.

The lowermost sponge block (where the sign is attached) may be any block; sponge is used as a placeholder. Tri-turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret], just like any other turret.

Tri-turrets can be noded with signs to fire automatically or manually. This is done by placing a [node] sign on the turret sign.

Minimum block count: 3400 for warships; 9850 for trade ships

= Tech 2 Weapons =
Tech 2 Weapons are an addition in the [[Dominion Update]], which are used on most Tech 2 ships. The only Tech 2 ships not mostly or entirely using Tech 2 weapons are the [[Interdictor Gunship]], [[Interdictor Corvette|Corvette]], and [[Interdictor Destroyer|Destroyer]], and the [[Black Ops Frigate]]. Most Tech 2 weapons have a higher damage than similar Tech 1 weapons. On top of that a number of these weapons provide different status effects, and there are even some that actually heal ships, called logistics weapons, which can be outfitted on the [[Logistics Corvette]] and the [[Logistics Cruiser]]. 

== Tech 2 Light Weapons ==
Tech 2 Light weapons work the same way as Tech 1 Light weapons, although some may require ammo and therefore a [[magazine]] to fire, in the same way that the Tech 1 Quad Cannons and Ion Turrets, as well as most heavy weapons do. In addition to traditional offensive power, many of these weapons also provide certain status effects to the ship you hit, and there are even logistics weapons that heal ships. All Tech 2 ships use some form of Tech 2 weapon with the exceptions of the [[Interdiction Destroyer]], [[Interdiction Corvette]], and [[Black Ops Frigate]].

=== Light Weapons List ===

* [[Scram]]
* [[Gauss Cannon]]
* [[Light Logistics Cannon]]
* [[Autocannon]]
* [[Assault Turret]]
* [[Light Missile Launcher]]
* [[Rapid Heavy Missile Launcher]] 
* [[Heavy Logistics Cannon]]
* [[Anti-Capital Turret]] (ACAP Turret)

== Tech 2 Heavy Weapons ==
Tech 2 Heavy weapons are the heavy weapons for Tech 2 ships. Being heavy weapons they have to be charged up before use, with some having lengthy charge up times. All Tech 2 ships use some form of Tech 2 weapon with the exceptions of the [[Interdictor Destroyer]], [[Interdictor Corvette]], [[Interdiction Gunship|Interdictor Gunship]], and [[Black Ops Frigate]]. The only Tech 2 weapon that can be fitted on Tech 1 ships is the probe, which is explained in its section.

=== Heavy Weapons List ===

* [[Advanced Probe Launcher]] (on a technicality)
* [[EMP Missile]]
* [[Neutralizer]]
* [[Artillery]]
* [[Webifier]]
* [[Command Burst]]
* [[Heavy Neutralizer]]
* [[Arsenal Missile Launcher]]
* [[Thermonuclear Missile Launcher]]
* [[Capital Command Burst]]
* [[Doomsday Laser]]

== Defunct Weapons ==
Weapons that no are in operation after updates (as of July 2nd 2026, most were from the [[Dominion Update]] and it's aftermath):

* [[Light Turret|Light Turrets]]
* [[Missile Swarm Launcher]]
* [[Interceptor Cannon]]

Probe Launcher - T1 Version, can be fit on the following:

* [[Shuttle]]
* [[Transport]]
* [[Light Freighter]]
* [[Medium Freighter]]
* [[Heavy Freighter]]This is a smaller version of the advanced multiblock. This probe launcher can only use Scanner Probes, the recipe is listed below.

The Advanced Probe Launcher gets additional combat capabilities in addition to the basic scanning abilities of the Basic Probe Launcher, with the ability to fire combat probes as well. This is the T2 Version, and can be fit on the following:

* [[Barge]]
* [[Recon Fighter|Recon]]
* [[Scrambler]]
* [[Stasis Corvette]]
* [[Missile Cruiser]]
* [[Industrial Command]]

[[File:Probes.png|thumb|Image of texture of both probes]]

== Probes ==
Scanner Probes can be crafted using 1 gold nugget and 1 iron nugget in a shapeless recipe.

Combat Probes can be crafted using 1 iron nugget and 1 aluminum ingot in a shapeless recipe.

The probes are a stackable item and must be loaded into a starship [[magazine]] to be usable.

== Using The Probe Launcher ==
The first thing you need to know about using the probe multiblock, is that the multiblock itself launches probes. This means that your starship will need to be equipped with a [[magazine]]. Additionally, the launcher counts as a heavy weapon, and as such if you have any other heavy weapon on the ship (if possible), you will need nodes. To launch probes, once loaded into the magazine on an active ship, you simple use it like any other heavy weapon, by holding right click. From there after a short delay you will get info on [[Cosmic Signatures]] within a 7500(Recon)/5000 block radius in the system you're in using Scanner Probes, and other [[Starship|starships]] in the same radius if using Combat Probes.

Welcome to Horizon's End! This is an open-source community-built space-based Minecraft server, where you can build your very own movable starships. Our server is heavily focused around sci-fi ship versus ship(svs) combat, but features a robust settlement/nation system, player made factories, base defense, and economy.

[https://youtu.be/2LZNTwg5X_I COMBAT/ADVANCED PILOTING TUTORIAL] (by EloMilo)

(Please note that powermodes are no longer a feature within the game)

== <big>Your first Ship</big> ==
When you first join the server ('''horizonsend.net'''), you will spawn in the Tutorial Hub. An assistant named J.A.N.E will walk you through the basics of ship flight(shift-movement, cruise, how to insert chetherite into a hyperdrive, how to [[Jump Gate|jump]](warp) through a warp-gate into other star systems. You will then be shown how to unpilot a ship, and be given a brief overview on the 4 Core System's, Asteri, Sirius, Regulus, & Ilios.

* '''[[Asteri System|Asteri]]''' is a '''permanent [[safezone]] & the largest [[Core System]] with 5 planets, and so it is recommended for new players to live here while learning the game's systems''', as other players can not kill them or sink ships for bounty/loot/sport. '''[[Gaia Station]]''', an NPC Space Station, is located here. '''You can buy craftable unique food for credits here later on, and sell them for up to 100,000 credits a day, remember this!'''
* '''[[Sirius System|Sirius]]''' is the 2nd most active Core System, '''boasting builds and history from the earliest times of the server.''' '''[[Prometheus Station|Prometheus]]''', an NPC Space Station, is located here. '''You can sell crops here for up to 100,000 credits a day, remember this!'''
* '''[[Regulus System|Regulus]]''' is the most active of all the Core System's, filled with a plethora of space stations and the Hub of interstellar travel, being connected to Asteri, Sirius, and ''[[Trench]], the servers main Mining System'', '''almost all player pirates live here due to the frequency of travel and convenience of getting around.'''
* '''[[Ilios System|Ilios]]''' is on the fringe compared to the others, only being directly connected to Sirius. Land is scarcely contested, and '''it boasts the 3rd best ore rates on the server''', behind [[Deep Space]] Mining Systems and [[Trench]], respectively. After making your decision, you will spawn in the respective Systems '''Station Port''', where you can pick between 4 options for your first ship! ''You can always fly back to these'' to buy more ships, and will spawn here in the event you do not have a [[Cryopod]] or it is destroyed. '''You're ship options are as follows:'''
* 200C - '''Vesta''' ([[Shuttle]]). Your first ship! The first class of civilian ships, this one comes with a built in [[Item Charger]] for your [[Power Drill]] and a [[Power Furnace]] to provide power to the charger. It also has 6 sticky pistons for [[Cargo Trading]], one of the money making methods on the server, and a much safer option than the next choice. '''If you're not sure what ship you like, pick this one! You can always purchase the others later.'''
* 500C - '''Vulture''' ([[Starfighter]]). Your first (war) ship! The first class of warships, this fast & furious fighter packs a devastating plasma cannon and Proton Torpedo. Both weapons can only fire forwards, but if you're looking to live on the more dangerous side, she wont do you wrong! You have no room for cargo, so you'll have to rely on sinking AI & Player Ships for money-making alongside [[Daily Commissions|daily commissions]]. '''This is not recommended as an option for those unfamiliar with the movecraft plugin''', as combat involves a lot of snap turns and proper distance management.
* 1,000C - Ozark ([[Shuttle]]). Your first (mining) ship! Comes with a [[Mining Laser|mining laser]] & [[incinerator]], both which require no power! This is an amazing pick, as it makes gathering all the chetherite you will need early on to get around a breeze! Definitely pick one of these up sooner than later
* 6,000 - Amph ([[Transport]]) '''level 10 required.''' This big buddy will be your [[crating]] friend! '''Able to be quickly gotten from the start, this ship can be your gateway to exploring the known sectors and making cash in style with its 24 cargo slots!''' Just remember to watch out for pirates, as this ship has rather weak offensive options for its size.

== Using tools ==
The starter Vesta & Amph includes an [[Item Charger|item charger]] and [[generator]]. The generator accepts uranium, redstone (or redstone blocks), & coal into the top furnace slot and generates power which can be used to recharge your power drill, and eventually other tools such as power armor.

== How to jump to hyperspace ==
{{Main|Hyperspace}}

Put 2 [[chetherite]] in each of the hoppers of the [[hyperdrive]]

Move 1000 blocks AWAY from any [[planets]] ([[Gravity Well|gravity wells]] prevent [[hyperspace]] travel)

Make sure your direction of travel DOES NOT intersect the 1000 block gravity well radius (or your ship will fail to jump)

/jump <destination> OR /jump <x> <z>

=== How to travel to other star systems ===
/route add <destination in other system> OR /route add <name of system> <x> <z>

If you are in space and piloting a ship, your travel path will be listed on the right sidebar.

/jump auto ; repeat until you reach the destination.

/jump clear or /jump undo to cancel.

''You can also jump manually'' with /jump <planet name>, /jump <name of system> <warp gate>, & /jump <x> <z>

'''Or''', install the community made [https://discord.com/channels/916891217596395631/995366844993110066/1493162827115008061 '''CrowMap Mod''' from Diena1] . With the press of a button (X by default, it will pull up the dynmap in-game, and you can warp anywhere with just a simple right click! I highly recommend this option for newer players. It works on '''Fabric!'''

== What to do after obtaining your first ship ==
Now that you have your first shiny piece of interstellar travel, you may be thinking "This place is so big, what do I do first to have the best experience possible?"

To maximize your experience, there is one thing to keep in mind: '''When you join the server you gain a ⭐ next to your player name when chatting or checking TAB that denotes your currently decreasing 48 In-game Hour Noob Protection. This keeps other players from killing you,''' (''Enforced by 1 day Bans, if you see a star die, report it!'') as long as you stay within the 4 [[Core System|Core Systems]] listed above. If you travel to [[Horizon]], [[Trench]], or any [[Deep Space|Deep Space System]], you can be killed by other players at no penalty, as according to the [[rules]].

This follows a formula of 48^((100-X)0.01), where X is any level you reach after level 1. For example, instantly reaching level 20 upon joining the server would lower your protection time from 48 hours to 22. '''You can check how much time you or any other player has at any time with /checkprotection'''. ''You can not use this on yourself or others while in creative!''

"''Why are you talking about levels so much?''" Good question! Levels decide what [[Starship|starships]] you can or cannot [[Piloting Guide|pilot]]. At level 1 when you first join, you can only use [[Shuttle|Shuttles]] & [[Starfighter|Starfighters]]. At level 10, you gain [[Transport|Transports]] & [[Gunship|Gunships]]. At 20, [[Corvette|Corvettes]] & [[Light Freighter|Light Freighters]]. And so on.

You gain levels by earning experience, either by sinking ships or killing players, or by completing [[Daily Commissions]] & Cargo Trading at Trade Cities(TCs), or from /achievements

'''So the goal is to earn as much money as possible while staying at as low a level as possible. This method will involve the player not leveling past level 10.'''

==== Daily Checklist ====

* Go to any Trade City and begin your [[Daily Commissions]] (Daily Quests), you can do up to 3 a day, and must complete one before accepting another, these earn a player 5,000 each, '''with the value increasing for each day the player has done these, up to 15,000each, for a total of 45,000 a day.'''
* Go to any Trade City and buy [[Cargo Trading|Cargo Crates]] from an Exporter. Buy an amount equal to how many sticky pistons your ship has, as you must place them on sticky pistons to travel with them. '''If you attempt to move in a ship while holding cargo in your inventory, it will alert you in chat and fall on the ground. ''You can buy crates 3 times from each city every day, so get hauling!'''''
* Once you acquire a [[Gunship]] (You can purchase a blueprint or ship directly from multiple sellers! Go to Our Discords [https://discord.gg/6r8R4AbX Trade Forum] or Ping our active sellers such as @Eyrzeke, @YourPalNova, or @SmartFlyingWarriorto to buy a blueprint for only 10,000 Credits!) You can join a fleet with other players and participate in '''AI Loci''' that spawn every few hours. You can check the spawn times with '''/encounterstatus.''' Of all the options, ignore Unknown Signals, & Horizon Transit. The former gives too little money for its difficulty(Multiple AI Capital-Class Ships with good aim, and the latter only spawns Shuttles/Transports with terrible returns. As you continue to kill AI and build a heat streak, you will eventually reach a soft cap of 50% rewards and a hard cap of 20%, but it is common to make up to '''500,000 credits''' a day alone from this feature. '''Practice in /server creative against AI before taking these on, as it is a big difficulty curve when it comes to piloting ships in combat!''' '''/warp Space Arena''', '''/aiopponent summon Dagger/Bulwark/Resolute/Reaver''' are all good choices to practice against for Aim Training, Navigation, and Survivability. Get to a level you can kill these while taking 0 hull damage and remaining above at least 60% shield before taking on Loci, and remember to bring friends!
* Run /kit starter for the materials of a [[cryopod]], as well as a basic armor and weapon kit, wrench for storing multiblocks, and workbench for creating them. (24Hour Cooldown)

=== Level 10 ===
=== After your first 3 Daily Commissions, if you bought a Vesta, you will have enough credits to reach Level 10. You need 17,002.5 Credits. Run the command (/calcxp 10) and (/buyxp 6801 17002.5.) This unlocks [[Transport|Transports]] & [[Gunship|Gunships]] to you, so remember to buy an Amph at a Ship Dealer when you acquire 6,000 Credits. ===
You can may be running low on [[Chetherite]] to jump around at this point, so buy an '''Ozark''' at a [[Ship Dealer]] for 1,000 credits, and use it to mine as much Chetherite as you can from the Core Systems (Particularly, Ilios, your best choice) '''DO NOT GO TO HORIZON, TRENCH, OR DEEP SPACE SYSTEMS TO MINE AS OTHER PLAYERS CAN KILL YOU BEFORE YOUR PROTECTION RUNS OUT!'''

'''From here, keep earning as much money as you can, and aim to have enough money to jump straight to level 60 once your new player protection runs out!'''

You can build your own ship designs, but if you need an idea on where to start, [https://discord.gg/rCTrvD248 join our discord!] There are many builds you can use as inspiration or as a reference!

== How to claim land ==
{{Main|Settlements}}

Now, you may have a few ships at this point and some ores stored in them and be wondering, "How do I get some land to store my valuables???"

We have 2 methods of land claiming for players not in a Nation:

* '''/station create''' - creates a claim in space in a defined radius within any '''Core System'''. This is usually the cheaper option and better for small groups than a Planet Settlement Claim. There is '''no activity timer, and gives you exactly as much space as you want,''' without having to clear prior land, Provided you have the funds, of course. I recommend a station with a radius of 50 to begin, a 100 block circle is more than enough to park your ships, and it only costs 4,000. '''Run the command /station create personal <name here> 50 3927 where you would like it to be.'''
* '''/settlement create''' - creates a new settlement in unclaimed land on a planet. If you like to spend lots of time terraforming and want to make a beautiful cityscape with friends, this is the choice for you! Prices vary between 1,500c and 30,000, but you get an entire swath of land you can build and mine on to your desire. '''Please note if no one logs in to a settlement for over 30 days, the land will purge and anyone can buy it again.''' You will need to either join or create a settlement to form a Nation, so group up!

== How to join someone ==
Ask in chat and/or Discord (/discord)!

Use the personal transporter tool to teleport to another player one time.

To join a settlement once you have an invite, use '''/s join'''. If you want access to a space station, the owner must run the command '''/station trusted add player (station name) (player name).'''

It is usually expected of you to learn the basics before joining others, but some nations commonly recruit those fresh faces to teach personally, to varying degrees, give them a chance!

== How to make new ships ==
You can make your own custom ship designs on the creative server with /server creative.

Once you have a new design, save it with /blueprint save.

If you built a base, you will need to detect it as a platform, run the commands '''//pos1''' & '''//pos2''' on 2 opposite sides and heights to select a boxed area, then run '''//replace gray_concrete''', pilot the platform as if it were a ship, type '''//undo''', then save the blueprint normally

You can print saved blueprints in survival with the [[Ship Factory|ship factory]].

== Nations ==
{{Main|Nations}}

Once you have a settlement, you can create a nation ('''/n create name R G B cost'''), which allows you to '''recruit other settlements, participate in sieges, and claim more territories on other planets, and even entire Deep Space Systems!''' ''It costs 20,000 to create a Nation.''

Note that many settlements are already part of nations, and that if you join a settlement you also join that settlement's nation.

=Next Steps=

* Learn how our various [[:Category:Multiblocks|Multiblocks]] work, and create small factories!
* Design custom [[starships]] on the [[Creative]] server, test them against other players or AI Ships in the [[Space Arena]], and [[print]] them to use in [[Survival]].
* Achieve higher levels to unlock larger [[Starship]] types for use in [[Survival]].
* Mine [[Ores]] on [[Asteroids]] using a [[Mining Laser]], or on planets using a [[Starship Drill]].
* Craft advanced [[Power Tools]], [[Power Armor]], and [[Blasters]] to mine faster, move easier, and fight harder.
* Sell your items on the [[Bazaar]] at [[Trade Cities]] to earn credits from other players.
* Engage in [[Piracy]] against other players, or fight as a Privateer and collect Bounties on other players.
* Form or join a [[Nation]], recruit like minded [[settlements]] and players, and engage in [[Station Sieges|Sieges]] against rival nations to gain their Deep Space Systems for yourself!
* Build a heavily defensible Space Station with Area Shields & multiple Base Defense Platforms in a Deep Space System!
* Construct a [[Trade City]] to gain passive income and a [[safezone]] for your [[settlement]] in any of the Core Systems.

Combat Probes can be crafted using 1 iron nugget and 1 aluminum ingot in a shapeless recipe.

The probes are a stackable item and must be loaded into a starship [[magazine]] to be useable.

=== <big>Your first Ship</big> ===
When you first join the server ('''horizonsend.net'''), you will spawn in the Tutorial Hub. An assistant named J.A.N.E will walk you through the basics of ship flight(shift-movement, cruise, how to insert chetherite into a hyperdrive, how to jump(warp) through a warp-gate into other star systems. You will then be shown how to unpilot a ship, and be given a brief overview on the 4 Core System's, Asteri, Sirius, Regulus, & Ilios.

* '''Asteri''' is a '''permanent safezone & the largest Core System with 5 planets, and so it is recommended for new players to live here while learning the game's systems''', as other players can not kill them or sink ships for bounty/loot/sport. '''Gaia Station''', an NPC Space Station, is located here. '''You can buy craftable unique food for credits here later on, and sell them for up to 100,000 credits a day, remember this!'''
* '''Sirius''' is the 2nd most active Core System, '''boasting builds and history from the earliest times of the server.''' '''Prometheus''', an NPC Space Station, is located here. '''You can sell crops here for up to 100,000 credits a day, remember this!'''
* '''Regulus''' is the most active of all the Core System's, filled with a plethora of space stations and the Hub of interstellar travel, being connected to Asteri, Sirius, and Trench, the servers main Mining System, '''almost all player pirates live here due to the frequency of travel and convenience of getting around.'''
* '''Ilios''' is on the fringe compared to the others, only being directly connected to Sirius. Land is scarcely contested, and '''it boasts the 3rd best ore rates on the server''', behind Deep Space Mining Systems and Trench, respectively. After making your decision, you will spawn in the respective Systems '''Station Port''', where you can pick between 4 options for your first ship! You can always fly back to these to buy more ships, and will spawn here in the event you do not have a Cryopod or it is destroyed. '''You're ship options are as follows:'''
* 200C - '''Vesta''' ([[Shuttle]]). Your first ship! The first class of civilian ships, this one comes with a built in [[Item Charger]] for your [[Power Drill]] and a [[Power Furnace]] to provide power to the charger. It also has 6 sticky pistons for [[Cargo Trading]], one of the money making methods on the server, and a much safer option than the next choice. '''If you're not sure what ship you like, pick this one! You can always purchase the others later.'''
* 500C - '''Vulture''' ([[Starfighter]]). Your first (war) ship! The first class of warships, this fast & furious fighter packs a devastating plasma cannon and Proton Torpedo. Both weapons can only fire forwards, but if you're looking to live on the more dangerous side, she wont do you wrong! You have no room for cargo, so you'll have to rely on sinking AI & Player Ships for money-making alongside daily commissions. '''This is not recommended as an option for those unfamiliar with the movecraft plugin''', as combat involves a lot of snap turns and proper distance management.
* 1,000C - Ozark ([[Shuttle]]). Your first (mining) ship! Comes with a [[Mining Laser|mining laser]] & [[incinerator]], both which require no power! This is an amazing pick, as it makes gathering all the chetherite you will need early on to get around a breeze! Definitely pick one of these up sooner than later
* 6,000 - Amph ([[Transport]]) '''level 10 required.''' This big buddy will be your crating friend! '''Able to be quickly gotten from the start, this ship can be your gateway to exploring the known sectors and making cash in style with its 24 cargo slots!''' Just remember to watch out for pirates, as this ship has rather weak offensive options for its size.[[Mining Laser| ]]

== Using tools ==
The starter Vesta & Amph includes an [[Item Charger|item charger]] and [[generator]]. The generator accepts uranium, redstone (or redstone blocks), & coal into the top furnace slot and generates power which can be used to recharge your power drill, and eventually other tools such as power armor.

== How to jump to hyperspace ==
{{Main|Hyperspace}}
Put 2 [[chetherite]] in each of the hoppers of the [[hyperdrive]]

Move 1000 blocks AWAY from any planets (gravity wells prevent hyperspace travel)

Make sure your direction of travel DOES NOT intersect the 1000 block gravity well radius (or your ship will fail to jump)

/jump <destination> OR /jump <x> <z>

=== How to travel to other star systems ===
/route add <destination in other system> OR /route add <name of system> <x> <z>

If you are in space and piloting a ship, your travel path will be listed on the right sidebar.

/jump auto ; repeat until you reach the destination.

/jump clear or /jump undo to cancel.

'''Or''', install the community made '''CrowMap Mod''' from Diena1 https://discord.com/channels/916891217596395631/995366844993110066/1493162827115008061. With the press of a button (X by default, it will pull up the dynmap in-game, and you can warp anymore with just a simple right click! I highly recommend this option for newer players. It works on '''Fabric'''

== What to do after obtaining your first ship ==
Now that you have your first shiny piece of interstellar travel, you may be thinking "This place is so big, what do I do first to have the best experience possible?"

To maximize your experience, there is one thing to keep in mind: '''The ⭐ next to your player name when chatting or checking TAB denotes your currently decreasing 48 In-game Hour Noob Protection. This keeps other players from killing you''' (''Enforced by 1 day Bans, if you see a star die, report it!'') as long as you stay within the 4 Core Systems listed above. If you travel to Horizon, Trench, or any Deep Space System, you can be killed by other players at no penalty, as according to the rules.

This follows a formula of 48^((100-X)0.01), where X is any level you reach after level 1. For example, instantly reaching level 20 upon joining the server would lower your protection time from 48 hours to 22. You can check how much time you or any other player has at any time with /checkprotection. You can not use this on yourself while in creative!

'''So the goal is to earn as much money as possible while staying at as low a level as possible. This method will involve the player not leveling past level 10.'''

==== Daily Checklist ====

* Go to any Trade City and begin your [[Daily Commissions]] (Daily Quests), you can do up to 3 a day, and must complete one before accepting another, these earn a player 5,000 each, '''with the value increasing for each day the player has done these, up to 15,000each, for a total of 45,000 a day.'''
* Go to any Trade City and buy [[Cargo Trading|Cargo Crates]] from an Exporter. Buy an amount equal to how many sticky pistons your ship has, as you must place them on sticky pistons to travel with them. '''If you attempt to move in a ship while holding cargo in your inventory, it will alert you in chat and fall on the ground. ''You can buy crates 3 times from each city every day, so get hauling!'''''
* Once you acquire a [[Gunship]] (Ping @Eyrzeke, @YourPalNova, or @SmartFlyingWarriorto to buy a blueprint for only 10,000 Credits!) You can join a fleet with other players and participate in '''AI Loci''' that spawn every few hours. You can check the spawn times with '''/encounterstatus.''' Of all the options, ignore Unknown Signals, & Horizon Transit. The former gives too little money for its difficulty(Multiple AI Capital-Class Ships with good aim, and the latter only spawns Shuttles/Transports with terrible returns. As you continue to kill AI and build a heat streak, you will eventually reach a soft cap of 50% rewards and a hard cap of 20%, but it is common to make up to '''500,000 credits''' a day alone from this feature. '''Practice in /server creative against AI before taking these on, as it is a big difficulty curve when it comes to piloting ships in combat!''' '''/warp Space Arena''', '''/aiopponent summon Dagger/Bulwark/Resolute/Reaver''' are all good choices to practice against for Aim Training, Navigation, and Survivability. Get to a level you can kill these while taking 0 hull damage and remaining above at least 60% shield before taking on Loci, and remember to bring friends!
* Run /kit starter for the materials of a cryopod, as well as a basic armor and weapon kit, wrench for storing multiblocks, and workbench for creating them. (24Hour Cooldown)

=== Level 10 ===

=== After your first 3 Daily Commissions, if you bought a Vesta, you will have enough credits to reach Level 10. You need 17,002.5 Credits. Run the command (/calcxp 10) and (/buyxp 6801 17002.5.) This unlocks [[Transport|Transports]] & [[Gunship|Gunships]] to you, so remember to buy an Amph at a Ship Dealer when you acquire 6,000 Credits. ===
You can may be running low on [[Chetherite]] to jump around at this point, so buy an '''Ozark''' at a [[Ship Dealer]] for 1,000 credits, and use it to mine as much Chetherite as you can from the Core Systems (Particularly, Ilios, your best choice) '''DO NOT GO TO HORIZON, TRENCH, OR DEEP SPACE SYSTEMS TO MINE AS OTHER PLAYERS CAN KILL YOU BEFORE YOUR PROTECTION RUNS OUT!'''

'''From here, keep earning as much money as you can, and aim to have enough money to jump straight to level 60 once your new player protection runs out!'''

You can build your own ship designs, but if you need an idea on where to start, [[Lonestar]] (@eyrzeke on discord) [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1N7DFmIFpes_ggIbgTO1JnMrmBFTW7Pc2-16fN_k6UCk/edit?gid=0#gid=0 sells the most widely used ships on the server!]

== How to claim land ==
{{Main|Settlements }}

Now, you may have a few ships at this point and some ores stored in them and be wondering, "How do I get some land to store my valuables???"

We have 2 methods of land claiming for players not in a Nation:

* '''/station create''' - creates a claim in space in a defined radius within any '''Core System'''. This is usually the cheaper option and better for small groups than a Planet Settlement Claim. There is '''no activity timer, and gives you exactly as much space as you want,''' without having to clear prior land, Provided you have the funds, of course. I recommend a station with a radius of 50 to begin, a 100 block circle is more than enough to park your ships, and it only costs 4,000. '''Run the command /station create personal namehere 50 3927 where you would like it to be.'''
* '''/settlement create''' - creates a new settlement in unclaimed land on a planet. If you like to spend lots of time terraforming and want to make a beautiful cityscape with friends, this is the choice for you! Prices vary between 1,500c and 30,000, but you get an entire swath of land you can build and mine on to your desire. '''Please note if no one logs in to a settlement for over 30 days, the land will purge and anyone can buy it again.''' You will need to either join or create a settlement to form a Nation, so group up!

== How to join someone ==
Ask in chat and/or Discord (/discord)!

Use the personal transporter tool to teleport to another player one time.

To join a settlement once you have an invite, use '''/s join'''. If you want access to a space station, the owner must run the command '''/station trusted add player (station name) (player name).'''

It is usually expected of you to learn the basics before joining others, but some nations commonly recruit those fresh faces to teach personally, to varying degrees, give them a chance!

== How to make new ships ==
You can make your own custom ship designs on the creative server with /server creative.

Once you have a new design, save it with /blueprint save.

If you built a base, you will need to detect it as a platform, run the commands '''//pos1''' & '''//pos2''' on 2 opposite sides and heights to select a boxed area, then run '''//replace gray_concrete''', pilot the platform as if it were a ship, type '''//undo''', then save the blueprint normally

You can print saved blueprints in survival with the [[Ship Factory|ship factory]].

== Nations ==
{{Main|Nations}}
Once you have a settlement, you can create a nation ('''/n create name R G B cost'''), which allows you to '''recruit other settlements, participate in sieges, and claim more territories on other planets, and even entire Deep Space Systems!''' ''It costs 20,000 to create a Nation.''

Note that many settlements are already part of nations, and that if you join a settlement you also join that settlement's nation.

=Next Steps=
* Learn how our various [[:Category:Multiblocks|Multiblocks]] work, and create small factories!
* Design custom [[starships]] on the [[Creative]] server, test them against other players or AI Ships in the [[Space Arena]], and [[print]] them to use in [[Survival]].
* Achieve higher levels to unlock larger [[Starship]] types for use in [[Survival]].
* Mine [[Ores]] on [[Asteroids]] using a [[Mining Laser]], or on planets using a [[Starship Drill]].
* Craft advanced [[Power Tools]], [[Power Armor]], and [[Blasters]] to mine faster, move easier, and fight harder.
* Sell your items on the [[Bazaar]] at [[Trade Cities]] to earn credits from other players.
* Engage in [[Piracy]] against other players, or fight as a Privateer and collect Bounties on other players.
* Form or join a [[Nation]], recruit like minded [[settlements]] and players, and engage in [[Station Sieges|Sieges]] against rival nations to gain their Deep Space Systems for yourself!
* Build a heavily defensible Space Station with Area Shields & multiple Base Defense Platforms in a Deep Space System!
* Construct a [[Trade City]] to gain passive income and a [[safezone]] for your [[settlement]] in any of the Core Systems.

After making your decision, you will spawn in the respective Systems '''Station Port''', where you can pick between 4 options for your first ship! You can always fly back to these to buy more ships, and will spawn here in the event you do not have a Cryopod or it is destroyed. You're ship options are as follows:
* 200C - '''Vesta''' ([[Shuttle]]). Your first ship! The first class of civilian ships, this one comes with a built in [[Item Charger]] for your [[Power Drill]] and a [[Power Furnace]] to provide power to the charger. It also has 6 sticky pistons for [[Cargo Trading]], one of the money making methods on the server, and a much safer option than the next choice. '''If you're not sure what ship you like, pick this one! You can always purchase the others later.'''
* 500C - '''Vulture''' ([[Starfighter]]). Your first (war) ship! The first class of warships, this fast & furious fighter packs a devastating plasma cannon and Proton Torpedo. Both weapons can only fire forwards, but if you're looking to live on the more dangerous side, she wont do you wrong! You have no room for cargo, so you'll have to rely on sinking AI & Player Ships for money-making alongside daily commissions. '''This is not recommended as an option for those unfamiliar with the movecraft plugin''', as combat involves a lot of snap turns and proper distance management.
* 1,000C - Ozark ([[Shuttle]]). Your first (mining) ship! Comes with a [[Mining Laser|mining laser]] & [[incinerator]], both which require no power! This is an amazing pick, as it makes gathering all the chetherite you will need early on to get around a breeze! Definitely pick one of these up sooner than later
* 6,000 - Amph ([[Transport]]) '''level 10 required.''' This big buddy will be your crating friend! '''Able to be quickly gotten from the start, this ship can be your gateway to exploring the known sectors and making cash in style with its 24 cargo slots!''' Just remember to watch out for pirates, as this ship has rather weak offensive options for its size.[[Mining Laser| ]]

== Using tools ==
The starter Vesta & Amph includes an [[Item Charger|item charger]] and [[generator]]. The generator accepts uranium, redstone (or redstone blocks), & coal into the top furnace slot and generates power which can be used to recharge your power drill, and eventually other tools such as power armor.

== How to jump to hyperspace ==
{{Main|Hyperspace}}
Put 2 [[chetherite]] in each of the hoppers of the [[hyperdrive]]

Move 1000 blocks AWAY from any planets (gravity wells prevent hyperspace travel)

Make sure your direction of travel DOES NOT intersect the 1000 block gravity well radius (or your ship will fail to jump)

/jump <destination> OR /jump <x> <z>

=== How to travel to other star systems ===
/route add <destination in other system> OR /route add <name of system> <x> <z>

If you are in space and piloting a ship, your travel path will be listed on the right sidebar.

/jump auto ; repeat until you reach the destination.

/jump clear or /jump undo to cancel.

'''Or''', install the community made '''CrowMap Mod''' from Diena1 https://discord.com/channels/916891217596395631/995366844993110066/1493162827115008061. With the press of a button (X by default, it will pull up the dynmap in-game, and you can warp anymore with just a simple right click! I highly recommend this option for newer players. It works on '''Fabric'''

== What to do after obtaining your first ship ==
Now that you have your first shiny piece of interstellar travel, you may be thinking "This place is so big, what do I do first to have the best experience possible?"

To maximize your experience, there is one thing to keep in mind: '''The ⭐ next to your player name when chatting or checking TAB denotes your currently decreasing 48 In-game Hour Noob Protection. This keeps other players from killing you''' (''Enforced by 1 day Bans, if you see a star die, report it!'') as long as you stay within the 4 Core Systems listed above. If you travel to Horizon, Trench, or any Deep Space System, you can be killed by other players at no penalty, as according to the rules.

This follows a formula of 48^((100-X)0.01), where X is any level you reach after level 1. For example, instantly reaching level 20 upon joining the server would lower your protection time from 48 hours to 22. You can check how much time you or any other player has at any time with /checkprotection. You can not use this on yourself while in creative!

'''So the goal is to earn as much money as possible while staying at as low a level as possible. This method will involve the player not leveling past level 10.'''

==== Daily Checklist ====

* Go to any Trade City and begin your [[Daily Commissions]] (Daily Quests), you can do up to 3 a day, and must complete one before accepting another, these earn a player 5,000 each, '''with the value increasing for each day the player has done these, up to 15,000each, for a total of 45,000 a day.'''
* Go to any Trade City and buy [[Cargo Trading|Cargo Crates]] from an Exporter. Buy an amount equal to how many sticky pistons your ship has, as you must place them on sticky pistons to travel with them. '''If you attempt to move in a ship while holding cargo in your inventory, it will alert you in chat and fall on the ground. ''You can buy crates 3 times from each city every day, so get hauling!'''''
* Once you acquire a [[Gunship]] (Ping @Eyrzeke, @YourPalNova, or @SmartFlyingWarriorto to buy a blueprint for only 10,000 Credits!) You can join a fleet with other players and participate in '''AI Loci''' that spawn every few hours. You can check the spawn times with '''/encounterstatus.''' Of all the options, ignore Unknown Signals, & Horizon Transit. The former gives too little money for its difficulty(Multiple AI Capital-Class Ships with good aim, and the latter only spawns Shuttles/Transports with terrible returns. As you continue to kill AI and build a heat streak, you will eventually reach a soft cap of 50% rewards and a hard cap of 20%, but it is common to make up to '''500,000 credits''' a day alone from this feature. '''Practice in /server creative against AI before taking these on, as it is a big difficulty curve when it comes to piloting ships in combat!''' '''/warp Space Arena''', '''/aiopponent summon Dagger/Bulwark/Resolute/Reaver''' are all good choices to practice against for Aim Training, Navigation, and Survivability. Get to a level you can kill these while taking 0 hull damage and remaining above at least 60% shield before taking on Loci, and remember to bring friends!
* Run /kit starter for the materials of a cryopod, as well as a basic armor and weapon kit, wrench for storing multiblocks, and workbench for creating them. (24Hour Cooldown)

=== Level 10 ===

=== After your first 3 Daily Commissions, if you bought a Vesta, you will have enough credits to reach Level 10. You need 17,002.5 Credits. Run the command (/calcxp 10) and (/buyxp 6801 17002.5.) This unlocks [[Transport|Transports]] & [[Gunship|Gunships]] to you, so remember to buy an Amph at a Ship Dealer when you acquire 6,000 Credits. ===
You can may be running low on [[Chetherite]] to jump around at this point, so buy an '''Ozark''' at a [[Ship Dealer]] for 1,000 credits, and use it to mine as much Chetherite as you can from the Core Systems (Particularly, Ilios, your best choice) '''DO NOT GO TO HORIZON, TRENCH, OR DEEP SPACE SYSTEMS TO MINE AS OTHER PLAYERS CAN KILL YOU BEFORE YOUR PROTECTION RUNS OUT!'''

'''From here, keep earning as much money as you can, and aim to have enough money to jump straight to level 60 once your new player protection runs out!'''

You can build your own ship designs, but if you need an idea on where to start, [[Lonestar]] (@eyrzeke on discord) [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1N7DFmIFpes_ggIbgTO1JnMrmBFTW7Pc2-16fN_k6UCk/edit?gid=0#gid=0 sells the most widely used ships on the server!]

== How to claim land ==
{{Main|Settlements }}

Now, you may have a few ships at this point and some ores stored in them and be wondering, "How do I get some land to store my valuables???"

We have 2 methods of land claiming for players not in a Nation:

* '''/station create''' - creates a claim in space in a defined radius within any '''Core System'''. This is usually the cheaper option and better for small groups than a Planet Settlement Claim. There is '''no activity timer, and gives you exactly as much space as you want,''' without having to clear prior land, Provided you have the funds, of course. I recommend a station with a radius of 50 to begin, a 100 block circle is more than enough to park your ships, and it only costs 4,000. '''Run the command /station create personal namehere 50 3927 where you would like it to be.'''
* '''/settlement create''' - creates a new settlement in unclaimed land on a planet. If you like to spend lots of time terraforming and want to make a beautiful cityscape with friends, this is the choice for you! Prices vary between 1,500c and 30,000, but you get an entire swath of land you can build and mine on to your desire. '''Please note if no one logs in to a settlement for over 30 days, the land will purge and anyone can buy it again.''' You will need to either join or create a settlement to form a Nation, so group up!

== How to join someone ==
Ask in chat and/or Discord (/discord)!

Use the personal transporter tool to teleport to another player one time.

To join a settlement once you have an invite, use '''/s join'''. If you want access to a space station, the owner must run the command '''/station trusted add player (station name) (player name).'''

It is usually expected of you to learn the basics before joining others, but some nations commonly recruit those fresh faces to teach personally, to varying degrees, give them a chance!

== How to make new ships ==
You can make your own custom ship designs on the creative server with /server creative.

Once you have a new design, save it with /blueprint save.

If you built a base, you will need to detect it as a platform, run the commands '''//pos1''' & '''//pos2''' on 2 opposite sides and heights to select a boxed area, then run '''//replace gray_concrete''', pilot the platform as if it were a ship, type '''//undo''', then save the blueprint normally

You can print saved blueprints in survival with the [[Ship Factory|ship factory]].

== Nations ==
{{Main|Nations}}
Once you have a settlement, you can create a nation ('''/n create name R G B cost'''), which allows you to '''recruit other settlements, participate in sieges, and claim more territories on other planets, and even entire Deep Space Systems!''' ''It costs 20,000 to create a Nation.''

Note that many settlements are already part of nations, and that if you join a settlement you also join that settlement's nation.

=Next Steps=
* Learn how our various [[:Category:Multiblocks|Multiblocks]] work, and create small factories!
* Design custom [[starships]] on the [[Creative]] server, test them against other players or AI Ships in the [[Space Arena]], and [[print]] them to use in [[Survival]].
* Achieve higher levels to unlock larger [[Starship]] types for use in [[Survival]].
* Mine [[Ores]] on [[Asteroids]] using a [[Mining Laser]], or on planets using a [[Starship Drill]].
* Craft advanced [[Power Tools]], [[Power Armor]], and [[Blasters]] to mine faster, move easier, and fight harder.
* Sell your items on the [[Bazaar]] at [[Trade Cities]] to earn credits from other players.
* Engage in [[Piracy]] against other players, or fight as a Privateer and collect Bounties on other players.
* Form or join a [[Nation]], recruit like minded [[settlements]] and players, and engage in [[Station Sieges|Sieges]] against rival nations to gain their Deep Space Systems for yourself!
* Build a heavily defensible Space Station with Area Shields & multiple Base Defense Platforms in a Deep Space System!
* Construct a [[Trade City]] to gain passive income and a [[safezone]] for your [[settlement]] in any of the Core Systems.

Twille: Major overhaul to the new players guide for the clown swarm!

{{Needs work|description = rewritten/links fixed}}
Welcome to Horizon's End! This is an open-source community-built space-based Minecraft server, where you can build your very own movable starships. Our server is heavily focused around sci-fi ship versus ship(svs) combat, but features a robust settlement/nation system, player made factories, base defense, and economy.

=== <big>Your first Ship</big> ===
When you first join the server ('''horizonsend.net'''), you will spawn in the Tutorial Hub. An assistant named J.A.N.E will walk you through the basics of ship flight(shift-movement, cruise, how to insert chetherite into a hyperdrive, how to jump(warp) through a warp-gate into other star systems. You will then be shown how to unpilot a ship, and be given a brief overview on the 4 Core System's, Asteri, Sirius, Regulus, & Ilios.

* '''Asteri''' is a '''permanent safezone & the largest Core System with 5 planets, and so it is recommended for new players to live here while learning the game's systems''', as other players can not kill them or sink ships for bounty/loot/sport. '''Gaia Station''', an NPC Space Station, is located here. '''You can buy craftable unique food for credits here later on, and sell them for up to 100,000 credits a day, remember this!'''
* '''Sirius''' is the 2nd most active Core System, '''boasting builds and history from the earliest times of the server.''' '''Prometheus''', an NPC Space Station, is located here. '''You can sell crops here for up to 100,000 credits a day, remember this!'''
* '''Regulus''' is the most active of all the Core System's, filled with a plethora of space stations and the Hub of interstellar travel, being connected to Asteri, Sirius, and Trench, the servers main Mining System, '''almost all player pirates live here due to the frequency of travel and convenience of getting around.'''

Trade City

2026-06-21T15:39:31Z

Twille: added deep space osts and coordinates

'''Trade Cities''' are territories on planets that have economic infrastructure.

All trade cities (player and NPC) sell standard NPC starships at a [[Ship Dealer]], sell crates for [[Cargo Trading]], and host player shops via the [[Bazaar]].

Trade Cities are [[safezones]] - you cannot be hurt while within the territory, and explosions cannot take place.

The owners of a trade city are able to take ships parked in the territory, like any other settlement.

==Trade City NPCs==
[[File:Iliusnpcs.png|thumb|A pair of cargo NPCs in the spawn territory.|200x200px]]
'''Exporter''': Buy cargo crates

'''Importer''': Sell cargo crates

'''Bazaar''': Purchase from other players on the local Bazaar

'''Commissions Droid''': Start a [[Daily Commission]]

'''Ship Dealer''': Purchase [[starter ships]]

==Player Trade Cities & Requirements==
A [[settlement]] that meets certain requirements can apply to be a trade city. For each trade city application an independent panel of players will be gathered to vote on the city. It will be judged on the following criteria, and each member will decide an overall yes / no vote. The votes will be tallied and a majority yes / no will decide the application's acceptance. [[Eden]] cannot have trade cities.
* 3 Active Members*
* Landing Areas
* Docking Areas
* Clearly identified trade building to house NPCs.
* Sufficient Cityscape
* Settlement feels like a City
* Good Building Quality
* Roads
* No excessive reuse of building designs
<nowiki>*</nowiki>Once accepted, 4 active members are required to keep the benefits of a TC

===List Of Player Trade Cities===

* [[Cicatrix]], [[Aerach]] ([[Radiance]]) at 2530x, 800z

==Trade Outposts (NPC Trade Cities)==
Similar in function to a Player Trade City, but owned by NPCs. NPC trade outposts are commonly referred to as -osts.

Starship Weapons

2026-04-23T19:49:00Z

Twille: cooldown time for missile swarm

'''Starship weapons''' are used to deal damage to other starships, players, and entities.

[[Light Weapons]] are fired by left clicking with a controller. Multiple light weapons can be fired at once if you are not using [[weaponsets]] and [[nodes]] to control which weapons fire.

[[Heavy Weapons]] are fired by right clicking with a controller after a brief charge-up delay. Only one type of heavy weapon can be fired at a time, so ships with multiple heavy weapons must control them using weaponsets and nodes. Attempting to fire more than one weapon will jam the systems.

Turrets can fire in any direction that they have line of sight in. All turrets except for the [[Tri Turret]] are light weapons. [[Light Turrets]], Tri Turrets, and [[Point Defense Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>. Point Defense Turrets are light weapons and cannot be fired manually.

Some weapons such as [[Plasma Cannons]], [[Interceptor Cannons]], and [[Torpedoes]], can only fire forwards. The direction of fire for these weapons is the opposite direction of maximum thrust.

Players take 5 hearts of true damage when hit with any starship weapon.

= Light Weapons =
Light weapons have a comparatively high fire rate and low damage. Fire by left clicking with a clock.

'''Plasma cannons''' are the best primary weapon for small ships; they deal great damage and have a good fire rate. However, they can only fire forwards, and are limited by range and poor arcs of fire, making ships that can only mount plasmas (like Starfighters and Tackle Gunships) very vulnerable to fast adversaries armed with turrets or pulse cannons.

'''Ion turrets''' are unique manual weapons that disrupt systems in an 8x8 cube around where their shots impact. This disruption disables thrusters in the area for 5 seconds, reducing cruise speed for a time. This mechanic has no effect on ships using direct control. Ion turret projectiles are very slow and also deal a modest amount of shield damage, and minimal hull damage. Ion turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret].

Ion turrets require Charged Shells as ammunition.

Heavy weapons are weapons operating on an alternate weapons system. Hold right click to activate. Most heavy weapons consume ammo from a [[Magazine]].

You cannot fire more than one heavy weapon at a time. Attempting to do so will jam the ship's systems and prevent all heavy weapons from firing. Circumventing this issue is done with node signs.

[Note: This weapon is new and subject to changes]

'''Missile Swarm Launchers''' fire nine fast missiles in salvos at short ranges. A full salvo does about 25% less damage than a phaser, but has better tracking, making it useful against smaller ships such as Gunships and Corvettes. They cannot, however damage Starfighters or Interceptors. Consumes 2 Coal blocks, 18 coal, OR 36 Charcoal per salvo (of a singular weapon, cannot mix ammo types and will only pull from stacks meeting or exceeding the required counts of ammo).

Minimum block count: 4500 for warships (10500 for two); not available for trade ships {{clear}}

'''Arsenal Missile Launchers''' fire arsenal missiles, highly accurate guided projectiles that deal massive damage to area shields. They have modest explosion damage, and minimal ship shield damage. They can be fired much like any other heavy weapon, however they require the player to select the weaponset assigned to the missiles and perform /targetposition [x] [y] [z]. They are best used to assault area-shielded structures such as ground bases, stations, and [[Base Defense Platform|BDPs]]. A node sign can be placed on the note block. Consumes 1 Arsenal Missile per shot.

'''Starship weapons''' are used to deal damage to other starships, players, and entities.

[[Light Weapons]] are fired by left clicking with a controller. Multiple light weapons can be fired at once if you are not using [[weaponsets]] and [[nodes]] to control which weapons fire.

[[Heavy Weapons]] are fired by right clicking with a controller after a brief charge-up delay. Only one type of heavy weapon can be fired at a time, so ships with multiple heavy weapons must control them using weaponsets and nodes. Attempting to fire more than one weapon will jam the systems.

Turrets can fire in any direction that they have line of sight in. All turrets except for the [[Tri Turret]] are light weapons. [[Light Turrets]], Tri Turrets, and [[Point Defense Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>. Point Defense Turrets are light weapons and cannot be fired manually.

Some weapons such as [[Plasma Cannons]], [[Interceptor Cannons]], and [[Torpedoes]], can only fire forwards. The direction of fire for these weapons is the opposite direction of maximum thrust.

Players take 5 hearts of true damage when hit with any starship weapon.

= Light Weapons =
Light weapons have a comparatively high fire rate and low damage. Fire by left clicking with a clock.

'''Plasma cannons''' are the best light weapon for small ships; they deal great damage and have a good fire rate.

'''Ion turrets''' are unique manual weapons that disrupt systems in an 8x8 cube around where their shots impact. This disruption disables thrusters in the area for 5 seconds, reducing cruise speed for a time. This mechanic has no effect on ships using direct control. Ion turret projectiles are very slow and also deal a modest amount of shield damage, and minimal hull damage. Ion turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret].

Ion turrets require Charged Shells as ammunition.

Heavy weapons are weapons operating on an alternate weapons system. Hold right click to activate. Most heavy weapons consume ammo from a [[Magazine]].

You cannot fire more than one heavy weapon at a time. Attempting to do so will jam the ship's systems and prevent all heavy weapons from firing. Circumventing this issue is done with node signs.

'''Tri-turrets''' are hefty artillery pieces that deal great damage. Due to the projectile's slow speed, they are most useful against the largest ships.

The lowermost sponge block (where the sign is attached) may be any block; sponge is used as a placeholder. Tri-turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret], just like any other turret.

Tri-turrets can be noded with signs to fire automatically or manually. This is done by placing a [node] sign on the turret sign.

'''Arsenal Missile Launchers''' fire arsenal missiles, highly accurate guided projectiles that deal massive damage to area shields. They have modest explosion damage, and minimal ship shield damage. They can be fired much like any other heavy weapon, however they require the player to select the weaponset assigned to the missiles and perform /targetposition [x] [y] [z]. They are best used to assault area-shielded structures such as ground bases, stations, and [[Base Defense Platform|BDPs]]. A node sign can be placed on the note block. Consumes 1 Arsenal Missile per shot.

Starship Weapons

2025-10-15T19:36:20Z

Twille: Corvette 3s TT was reverted back to 7s. 1984

'''Starship weapons''' are used to deal damage to other starships, players, and entities.

[[Light Weapons]] are fired by left clicking with a controller. Multiple light weapons can be fired at once if you are not using [[weaponsets]] and [[nodes]] to control which weapons fire.

[[Heavy Weapons]] are fired by right clicking with a controller after a brief charge-up delay. Only one type of heavy weapon can be fired at a time, so ships with multiple heavy weapons must control them using weaponsets and nodes. Attempting to fire more than one weapon will jam the systems.

Turrets can fire in any direction that they have line of sight in. All turrets except for the [[Tri Turret]] are light weapons. [[Light Turrets]], Tri Turrets, and [[Point Defense Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>. Point Defense Turrets are light weapons and cannot be fired manually.

Some weapons such as [[Plasma Cannons]], [[Interceptor Cannons]], and [[Torpedoes]], can only fire forwards. The direction of fire for these weapons is the opposite direction of maximum thrust.

Players take 5 hearts of true damage when hit with any starship weapon.

= Light Weapons =
Light weapons have a comparatively high fire rate and low damage. Fire by left clicking with a clock.

'''Plasma cannons''' are the best light weapon for small ships; they deal great damage and have a good fire rate.

'''Ion turrets''' are unique manual weapons that disrupt systems in an 8x8 cube around where their shots impact. This disruption disables thrusters in the area for 5 seconds, reducing cruise speed for a time. This mechanic has no effect on ships using direct control. Ion turret projectiles are very slow and also deal a modest amount of shield damage, and minimal hull damage. Ion turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret].

Ion turrets require Charged Shells as ammunition.

Heavy weapons are weapons operating on an alternate weapons system. Hold right click to activate. Most heavy weapons consume ammo from a [[Magazine]].

You cannot fire more than one heavy weapon at a time. Attempting to do so will jam the ship's systems and prevent all heavy weapons from firing. Circumventing this issue is done with node signs.

[[File:Vesta.jpeg|thumb|The Vesta [[shuttle]] is the most common [[starter ship]] used by new players on Horizon's End.]]

'''Starships''' are the main form of transportation on Horizon's End.

They can be custom built by players or purchased from a [[Ship Dealer]], and can carry items and [[cargo crates]], mine [[asteroids]] in space or on [[planets]], and engage in [[SvS]] combat with other player built ships and NPC-controlled [[AI Ships]].

== Starship Classes ==
Starships must be assigned a class which dictates their block count, characteristics, and performance at different tasks.

A ship can only be constructed using certain blocks. A list of blocks that a starship can be built with is available at the [https://github.com/HorizonsEndMC/Ion/blob/main/server/src/main/kotlin/net/horizonsend/ion/server/features/starship/FlyableBlocks.kt Horizon's End github].

==Civilian Ship Classes==
'''Civilian ships''' are used for carrying [[Cargo Crates]] and mining [[asteroids]] using [[Mining Lasers]], and can carry vast quantities of items.

Civilian ships require at least 25% of total blocks as concrete to be detected.

Indicated statistics on the table below are for a ship of the maximum size for its class. Ships that are below the maximum size for its class can carry fewer cargo crates and [[containers]], and can fire fewer [[weapons]] and support fewer [[shields]].

Light Freighters, Medium Freighters, and Heavy Freighters can fire 1 [[Heavy Laser]] in addition to other weaponry. Civilian ships have weaker shields than warships of the same size.

There is not currently a civilian ship class that is 12,000 - 16,000 blocks in size.

==Warship Classes==
'''Warships''' are used in [[SvS]] combat against other players and NPC-controlled [[AI Ships]].

Warships require at least 30% of total blocks as concrete to be detected.

Indicated statistics on the table below are for a ship of the maximum size for its class. Ships that are below the maximum size for its class can fire fewer [[weapons]] and support fewer [[shields]].

===Crate Capacity===
Warships can carry half as many [[cargo crates]] and [[containers]] as a Civilian Ship of the same size. Battlecruisers cannot carry crates. Corvettes, Frigates, and Destroyers can use 1 [[T1 Mining Laser]].

===Weapon allowances===
Warships have a maximum number of weapons that they can fire simultaneously. This is not a limitation on how many weapons can be mounted on a ship. It is only a limitation in how many can be fired at the same time. (Example: a [[gunship]] may have six [[light turret]]s mounted, three on the top and three on the bottom, but only be able to actually fire one at a time)

==Other Ship Classes==
'''Speeders''' are small ships used for quick, short range transportation. '''Platforms''' are used for detecting and [[printing]] large builds using [[Ship Factories]].

Neither ship class requires concrete to detect, and they cannot use [[shields]], [[weapons]], [[hyperdrives]], [[mining lasers]], or [[starship gravity wells]]. Both ship classes can be detected [[oversize]] without any penalties.

Speeders can use [[starship drills]]. They cannot move by [[cruising]] or by [[direct control]], and cannot leave planets or go to space. 

Platforms cannot move at all.

== Starship Systems ==
A starship's capabilities are determined by the [[multiblocks]] used in the construction of the starship.

=== Weapons ===
{{Main|Starship Weapons}}

'''Starship weapons''' are used to deal damage to other starships, players, and entities.

[[Light Weapons]] are fired by left clicking with a controller. Multiple light weapons can be fired at once if you are not using [[weaponsets]] and [[nodes]] to control which weapons fire.

[[Heavy Weapons]] are fired by right clicking with a controller after a brief charge-up delay. Only one type of heavy weapon can be fired at a time, so ships with multiple heavy weapons must control them using weaponsets and nodes.

Turrets can fire in any direction that they have line of sight in. All turrets except for the [[Tri Turret]] are light weapons. [[Light Turrets]], Tri Turrets, and [[Point Defense Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>. Point Defense Turrets are light weapons and cannot be fired manually.

Some weapons such as [[Plasma Cannons]], [[Interceptor Cannons]], and [[Torpedoes]], can only fire forwards. The direction of fire for these weapons is the opposite of the direction of maximum thrust.

Players take 5 hearts of true damage when hit with any starship weapon.

=== Shields ===
{{Main|Particle Shields}}

'''Shields''' are used to absorb incoming weapons fire and prevent explosions from damaging a ship.

The number, strength, and recharge rate of a starship's shields is determined by ship class.

The amount of damage a shield takes is determined by the [[blast resistance]] of the block a projectile impacts. [[Blasters]], with the exception of the [[Blaster Cannon]], cannot damage a starship's shields.

=== Thrusters ===
{{Main|Thrusters}}

'''Thrusters''' are the primary source of propulsion for starships, and are required to [[cruise]] and fly in [[direct control]]. Thrusters add speed and acceleration in the direction that they are pointing. Applying thrust to one or multiple sides of a ship is possible.

A thruster's exhaust path may not be blocked by any block of the active starship at any distance, with the exception of one glass block or glass pane with no space in between.

==Hyperdrives & Navigation Computers==

[[Hyperdrives]] and [[Navigation Computers]] allow a starship to rapidly travel through hyperspace.

A starship can enter hyperspace by moving into the range of a [[Jump Gate]] or by using <code>/jump</code>. Two pieces of [[Chetherite]] per hyperdrive hopper are consumed when entering hyperspace.

A starship's hyperspace travel speed is determined by its hyperdrive tier, with higher tiers traveling faster while consuming more chetherite. A starship's hyperspace jump range is determined by its navigation computer tier and starship class.

==Gravity Wells==
{{Main|Gravity Well}}

A '''starship gravity well''' disables hyperspace travel within its radius while active, and causes ships in hyperspace to enter real space when they pass through the area of the generated [[gravity well]].

The cruise speed of ships in the gravity well's area can be temporarily reduced by 20% by pulsing an active starship gravity well, consuming two [[chetherite]] items.

The range of a starship gravity well is determined by a starship's size and class.

==Mining Equipment==
[[Mining Lasers]] and [[Starship Drills]] can be mounted on starships and used to mine [[asteroids]] in space and on [[planets]], respectively.

The number and tier of mining lasers that can be used is determined by starship class.

The number of starship drills that a player can have active at one time is limited to 16. There are no restrictions on the number or tier of starship drills present on a starship.

== Starship Concepts ==
The following concepts are important for understanding starship behavior in Horizon's End.

=== Ship Computer ===
{{Main|Ship Computer}}

A '''ship computer''' is a block (jukebox) on a starship where the main controls of a ship are accessed.

===Detecting & Piloting Starships===
{{Main|Piloting Guide}}

Follow these steps to detect and pilot your starship:
# Left click the ship computer (jukebox) while holding a controller (clock).
# Click the ghast tear item to open a menu where you can select your ship class. Click the desired class.
#* Some starship classes, such as the [[interceptor]], are subclasses of other ship classes. Right click the parent class, then select the subclass.
# Left click the clock item to re-detect your starship.
# Right click the ship computer while holding a controller to pilot your starship.
# Right click the ship computer again or use /release to stop flying and release your starship.

=== Hull Integrity ===
{{Main|Hull Integrity}}
A starship's '''hull integrity''' is the percent of blocks out of 100 remaining on an active starship.

=== Crate Capacity ===
{{Main|Crate Capacity}}
'''Crate capacity''' is the maximum number of [[crates]] that a ship can carry.

=== Storage Capacity ===
{{Main|Storage Capacity}}
'''Storage Capacity''' is the maximum number of [[containers]] that a ship can carry.

=== Oversize Starships ===
{{Main|Oversize}}
'''Oversizing''' is the act of detecting a ship with more blocks than the class allows, and is often used to tow multiple ships together.

=== Blast Resistance ===
{{Main|Blast Resistance}}
The '''blast resistance''' of blocks affects the amount of damage that [[shields]] take and the strength of explosions when a shield is disabled.

=== Power Modes ===
'''Power modes''' can be used to change how power is allocated between three different systems in your ship:
*[[Thrusters]]: Acceleration (not maximum speed) in cruising and direct control
*[[Shields]]: Shield recharge rate
*[[Weapons]]: Weapon fire rate

You can change your power mode using <code>/pm (Shield Power) (Weapon Power) (Thruster Power)</code>. The numbers you input must add to 100. A system's power cannot be below 10 or above 50. You can assign these modes to a sign by writing <code>[powermode]</code> on a sign and setting the second, third, and fourth lines to your desired shield, weapon, and thruster power.

=== Weaponsets ===
{{Main|Weaponsets}}

'''Weaponsets''' and [[Nodes]] are used to control a player defined set of [[starship weapons]]. A player can only control one weaponset at a time. Each weaponset can control multiple [[light weapon]] types and one [[heavy weapon]] type.

Weaponsets that control nodes attached to [[Point Defense Turrets]], [[Light Turrets]], and [[Tri Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>.

==Other Ship Classes==
'''Speeders''' are small ships used for quick, short range transportation. '''Platforms''' are used for detecting and [[printing]] large builds using [[Ship Factories]].

Neither ship class requires concrete to detect, and they cannot use [[shields]], [[weapons]], [[hyperdrives]], [[mining lasers]], or [[starship gravity wells]]. Both ship classes can be detected [[oversize]] without any penalties.

Speeders can use [[starship drills]]. They cannot move by [[cruising]] or by [[direct control]], and cannot leave planets or go to space. 

Platforms cannot move at all.

== Starship Systems ==
A starship's capabilities are determined by the [[multiblocks]] used in the construction of the starship.

=== Weapons ===
{{Main|Starship Weapons}}

'''Starship weapons''' are used to deal damage to other starships, players, and entities.

[[Light Weapons]] are fired by left clicking with a controller. Multiple light weapons can be fired at once if you are not using [[weaponsets]] and [[nodes]] to control which weapons fire.

[[Heavy Weapons]] are fired by right clicking with a controller after a brief charge-up delay. Only one type of heavy weapon can be fired at a time, so ships with multiple heavy weapons must control them using weaponsets and nodes.

Turrets can fire in any direction that they have line of sight in. All turrets except for the [[Tri Turret]] are light weapons. [[Light Turrets]], Tri Turrets, and [[Point Defense Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>. Point Defense Turrets are light weapons and cannot be fired manually.

Some weapons such as [[Plasma Cannons]], [[Interceptor Cannons]], and [[Torpedoes]], can only fire forwards. The direction of fire for these weapons is the opposite of the direction of maximum thrust.

Players take 5 hearts of true damage when hit with any starship weapon.

=== Shields ===
{{Main|Particle Shields}}

'''Shields''' are used to absorb incoming weapons fire and prevent explosions from damaging a ship.

The number, strength, and recharge rate of a starship's shields is determined by ship class.

The amount of damage a shield takes is determined by the [[blast resistance]] of the block a projectile impacts. [[Blasters]], with the exception of the [[Blaster Cannon]], cannot damage a starship's shields.

=== Thrusters ===
{{Main|Thrusters}}

'''Thrusters''' are the primary source of propulsion for starships, and are required to [[cruise]] and fly in [[direct control]]. Thrusters add speed and acceleration in the direction that they are pointing. Applying thrust to one or multiple sides of a ship is possible.

A thruster's exhaust path may not be blocked by any block of the active starship at any distance, with the exception of one glass block or glass pane with no space in between.

==Hyperdrives & Navigation Computers==

[[Hyperdrives]] and [[Navigation Computers]] allow a starship to rapidly travel through hyperspace.

A starship can enter hyperspace by moving into the range of a [[Jump Gate]] or by using <code>/jump</code>. Two pieces of [[Chetherite]] per hyperdrive hopper are consumed when entering hyperspace.

A starship's hyperspace travel speed is determined by its hyperdrive tier, with higher tiers traveling faster while consuming more chetherite. A starship's hyperspace jump range is determined by its navigation computer tier and starship class.

==Gravity Wells==
{{Main|Gravity Well}}

A '''starship gravity well''' disables hyperspace travel within its radius while active, and causes ships in hyperspace to enter real space when they pass through the area of the generated [[gravity well]].

The cruise speed of ships in the gravity well's area can be temporarily reduced by 20% by pulsing an active starship gravity well, consuming two [[chetherite]] items.

The range of a starship gravity well is determined by a starship's size and class.

==Mining Equipment==
[[Mining Lasers]] and [[Starship Drills]] can be mounted on starships and used to mine [[asteroids]] in space and on [[planets]], respectively.

The number and tier of mining lasers that can be used is determined by starship class.

The number of starship drills that a player can have active at one time is limited to 16. There are no restrictions on the number or tier of starship drills present on a starship.

== Starship Concepts ==
The following concepts are important for understanding starship behavior in Horizon's End.

=== Ship Computer ===
{{Main|Ship Computer}}

A '''ship computer''' is a block (jukebox) on a starship where the main controls of a ship are accessed.

===Detecting & Piloting Starships===
{{Main|Piloting Guide}}

Follow these steps to detect and pilot your starship:
# Left click the ship computer (jukebox) while holding a controller (clock).
# Click the ghast tear item to open a menu where you can select your ship class. Click the desired class.
#* Some starship classes, such as the [[interceptor]], are subclasses of other ship classes. Right click the parent class, then select the subclass.
# Left click the clock item to re-detect your starship.
# Right click the ship computer while holding a controller to pilot your starship.
# Right click the ship computer again or use /release to stop flying and release your starship.

=== Hull Integrity ===
{{Main|Hull Integrity}}
A starship's '''hull integrity''' is the percent of blocks out of 100 remaining on an active starship.

=== Crate Capacity ===
{{Main|Crate Capacity}}
'''Crate capacity''' is the maximum number of [[crates]] that a ship can carry.

=== Storage Capacity ===
{{Main|Storage Capacity}}
'''Storage Capacity''' is the maximum number of [[containers]] that a ship can carry.

=== Oversize Starships ===
{{Main|Oversize}}
'''Oversizing''' is the act of detecting a ship with more blocks than the class allows, and is often used to tow multiple ships together.

=== Blast Resistance ===
{{Main|Blast Resistance}}
The '''blast resistance''' of blocks affects the amount of damage that [[shields]] take and the strength of explosions when a shield is disabled.

=== Power Modes ===
'''Power modes''' can be used to change how power is allocated between three different systems in your ship:
*[[Thrusters]]: Acceleration (not maximum speed) in cruising and direct control
*[[Shields]]: Shield recharge rate
*[[Weapons]]: Weapon fire rate

You can change your power mode using <code>/pm (Shield Power) (Weapon Power) (Thruster Power)</code>. The numbers you input must add to 100. A system's power cannot be below 10 or above 50. You can assign these modes to a sign by writing <code>[powermode]</code> on a sign and setting the second, third, and fourth lines to your desired shield, weapon, and thruster power.

=== Weaponsets ===
{{Main|Weaponsets}}

'''Weaponsets''' and [[Nodes]] are used to control a player defined set of [[starship weapons]]. A player can only control one weaponset at a time. Each weaponset can control multiple [[light weapon]] types and one [[heavy weapon]] type.

Weaponsets that control nodes attached to [[Point Defense Turrets]], [[Light Turrets]], and [[Tri Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>.

[[File:Vesta.jpeg|thumb|The Vesta [[shuttle]] is the most common [[starter ship]] used by new players on Horizon's End.]]

'''Starships''' are the main form of transportation on Horizon's End.

They can be custom built by players or purchased from a [[Ship Dealer]], and can carry items and [[cargo crates]], mine [[asteroids]] in space or on [[planets]], and engage in [[SvS]] combat with other player built ships and NPC-controlled [[AI Ships]].

== Starship Classes ==
Starships must be assigned a class which dictates their block count, characteristics, and performance at different tasks.

A ship can only be constructed using certain blocks. A list of blocks that a starship can be built with is available at the [https://github.com/HorizonsEndMC/Ion/blob/main/server/src/main/kotlin/net/horizonsend/ion/server/features/starship/FlyableBlocks.kt Horizon's End github].

==Civilian Ship Classes==
'''Civilian ships''' are used for carrying [[Cargo Crates]] and mining [[asteroids]] using [[Mining Lasers]], and can carry vast quantities of items.

Civilian ships require at least 25% of total blocks as concrete to be detected.

Indicated statistics on the table below are for a ship of the maximum size for its class. Ships that are below the maximum size for its class can carry fewer cargo crates and [[containers]], and can fire fewer [[weapons]] and support fewer [[shields]].

Light Freighters, Medium Freighters, and Heavy Freighters can fire 1 [[Heavy Laser]] in addition to other weaponry. Civilian ships have weaker shields than warships of the same size.

There is not currently a civilian ship class that is 12,000 - 16,000 blocks in size.

===Crate Capacity===
Warships can carry half as many [[cargo crates]] and [[containers]] as a Civilian Ship of the same size. Battlecruisers cannot carry crates. Corvettes, Frigates, and Destroyers can use 1 [[T1 Mining Laser]].

===Weapon allowances===
Warships have a maximum number of weapons that they can fire simultaneously. This is not a limitation on how many weapons can be mounted on a ship. It is only a limitation in how many can be fired at the same time. (Example: a [[gunship]] may have six [[light turret]]s mounted, three on the top and three on the bottom, but only be able to actually fire one at a time)

== Starship Systems ==
A starship's capabilities are determined by the [[multiblocks]] used in the construction of the starship.

=== Weapons ===
{{Main|Starship Weapons}}

'''Starship weapons''' are used to deal damage to other starships, players, and entities.

[[Light Weapons]] are fired by left clicking with a controller. Multiple light weapons can be fired at once if you are not using [[weaponsets]] and [[nodes]] to control which weapons fire.

[[Heavy Weapons]] are fired by right clicking with a controller after a brief charge-up delay. Only one type of heavy weapon can be fired at a time, so ships with multiple heavy weapons must control them using weaponsets and nodes.

Turrets can fire in any direction that they have line of sight in. All turrets except for the [[Tri Turret]] are light weapons. [[Light Turrets]], Tri Turrets, and [[Point Defense Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>. Point Defense Turrets are light weapons and cannot be fired manually.

Some weapons such as [[Plasma Cannons]], [[Interceptor Cannons]], and [[Torpedoes]], can only fire forwards. The direction of fire for these weapons is the opposite of the direction of maximum thrust.

Players take 5 hearts of true damage when hit with any starship weapon.

=== Shields ===
{{Main|Particle Shields}}

'''Shields''' are used to absorb incoming weapons fire and prevent explosions from damaging a ship.

The number, strength, and recharge rate of a starship's shields is determined by ship class.

The amount of damage a shield takes is determined by the [[blast resistance]] of the block a projectile impacts. [[Blasters]], with the exception of the [[Blaster Cannon]], cannot damage a starship's shields.

=== Thrusters ===
{{Main|Thrusters}}

'''Thrusters''' are the primary source of propulsion for starships, and are required to [[cruise]] and fly in [[direct control]]. Thrusters add speed and acceleration in the direction that they are pointing. Applying thrust to one or multiple sides of a ship is possible.

A thruster's exhaust path may not be blocked by any block of the active starship at any distance, with the exception of one glass block or glass pane with no space in between.

==Hyperdrives & Navigation Computers==

[[Hyperdrives]] and [[Navigation Computers]] allow a starship to rapidly travel through hyperspace.

A starship can enter hyperspace by moving into the range of a [[Jump Gate]] or by using <code>/jump</code>. Two pieces of [[Chetherite]] per hyperdrive hopper are consumed when entering hyperspace.

A starship's hyperspace travel speed is determined by its hyperdrive tier, with higher tiers traveling faster while consuming more chetherite. A starship's hyperspace jump range is determined by its navigation computer tier and starship class.

==Gravity Wells==
{{Main|Gravity Well}}

A '''starship gravity well''' disables hyperspace travel within its radius while active, and causes ships in hyperspace to enter real space when they pass through the area of the generated [[gravity well]].

The cruise speed of ships in the gravity well's area can be temporarily reduced by 20% by pulsing an active starship gravity well, consuming two [[chetherite]] items.

The range of a starship gravity well is determined by a starship's size and class.

==Mining Equipment==
[[Mining Lasers]] and [[Starship Drills]] can be mounted on starships and used to mine [[asteroids]] in space and on [[planets]], respectively.

The number and tier of mining lasers that can be used is determined by starship class.

The number of starship drills that a player can have active at one time is limited to 16. There are no restrictions on the number or tier of starship drills present on a starship.

== Starship Concepts ==
The following concepts are important for understanding starship behavior in Horizon's End.

=== Ship Computer ===
{{Main|Ship Computer}}

A '''ship computer''' is a block (jukebox) on a starship where the main controls of a ship are accessed.

===Detecting & Piloting Starships===
{{Main|Piloting Guide}}

Follow these steps to detect and pilot your starship:
# Left click the ship computer (jukebox) while holding a controller (clock).
# Click the ghast tear item to open a menu where you can select your ship class. Click the desired class.
#* Some starship classes, such as the [[interceptor]], are subclasses of other ship classes. Right click the parent class, then select the subclass.
# Left click the clock item to re-detect your starship.
# Right click the ship computer while holding a controller to pilot your starship.
# Right click the ship computer again or use /release to stop flying and release your starship.

=== Hull Integrity ===
{{Main|Hull Integrity}}
A starship's '''hull integrity''' is the percent of blocks out of 100 remaining on an active starship.

=== Crate Capacity ===
{{Main|Crate Capacity}}
'''Crate capacity''' is the maximum number of [[crates]] that a ship can carry.

=== Storage Capacity ===
{{Main|Storage Capacity}}
'''Storage Capacity''' is the maximum number of [[containers]] that a ship can carry.

=== Oversize Starships ===
{{Main|Oversize}}
'''Oversizing''' is the act of detecting a ship with more blocks than the class allows, and is often used to tow multiple ships together.

=== Blast Resistance ===
{{Main|Blast Resistance}}
The '''blast resistance''' of blocks affects the amount of damage that [[shields]] take and the strength of explosions when a shield is disabled.

=== Power Modes ===
'''Power modes''' can be used to change how power is allocated between three different systems in your ship:
*[[Thrusters]]: Acceleration (not maximum speed) in cruising and direct control
*[[Shields]]: Shield recharge rate
*[[Weapons]]: Weapon fire rate

You can change your power mode using <code>/pm (Shield Power) (Weapon Power) (Thruster Power)</code>. The numbers you input must add to 100. A system's power cannot be below 10 or above 50. You can assign these modes to a sign by writing <code>[powermode]</code> on a sign and setting the second, third, and fourth lines to your desired shield, weapon, and thruster power.

=== Weaponsets ===
{{Main|Weaponsets}}

'''Weaponsets''' and [[Nodes]] are used to control a player defined set of [[starship weapons]]. A player can only control one weaponset at a time. Each weaponset can control multiple [[light weapon]] types and one [[heavy weapon]] type.

Weaponsets that control nodes attached to [[Point Defense Turrets]], [[Light Turrets]], and [[Tri Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>.

'''Lonestar''' is a [[nation]] on [[Horizon's End]]. It is best known for its [[starship]] production, neutrality, and friendliness towards new players. The nation's capital is the [[settlement]] [[texas]].

== History ==
Founded on October 19th 2024 by [[SIG130]], lonestar is a large faction with a balanced economy and military. Its capital, texas, dedicated itself to recruiting and training new players. After a brief period as an autonomous member of [[Radiance]], texas became independent and founded a nation grounded in neutrality. Its current leader is WanderingOtter, a experienced factory engineer with a long history in Lonestar.

Since its founding, Lonestar has balanced itself around military and industrial growth. Lonestar forces have participated in a number of anti-piracy engagements as well as starship construction for clients ranging from larger factions to individual entrepreneurs.

On December 1, 2024, leadership of lonestar was passed to XiJinping_. He quickly began to implement sweeping reforms, most notably including a rapid militarization effort, the production of a modernized war fleet, cessation of active Texas recruitment, the initialization of a supercapital program, and the full subsidization of lonestar member settlements Aarmance and Elodia, as well as appointing Aarmance governor Gvazdika to the Lonestar Executive Panel.

On January 5, 2025, Lonestar entered into its first short-lived formal alliance with [[Ekatera]] to exchange engineering assistance on Altar Sanctorium for Ekatera's time in printing Lonestar's freighter fleets. Shortly thereafter, [[Vega]] declared war on Ekatera over the issue of a seizure of a freighter used by the Vega citizen LeMaire. Lonestar attempted to diplomatically intervene, but could not mediate an agreement between the parties. Frustration with the handling of the situation and the risk the war posed to noncombatant Lonestar personnel led to Lonestar beginning a siege of [[Kovfefe]] against Ekatera on January 7, 2025, marking Lonestar's entry into the [[Vega-Ekatera War]].

In late January, [[Sovrah]] would join Lonestar after having been a member of [[Imperial Nova]], which also resulted in the transfer of Sovrah's Repentance-class [[Battlecruiser]]. This marked the first Battlecruiser in possession of a Lonestar pilot, though it would later be scrapped on Febuary 23rd, 2025. Around the same time, the Nexus Affair would occur as part of the Vega-Ekatera War; following this event, [[Berx]] would become a subsidized Lonestar member settlement. Berx and Elodia would later merge into Olympus, located at the site of former [[Starfall]].

On February 6th, Lonestars [[XiJinping_]] and [[CursedSaturn]] would participate in [[February 6th Zealandia Manhunt|hunting Zealandia1]], a notorious pirate and assassin who had racked up a bounty of over 170,000 credits. The final assault on Zealandia’s tunnel ended with Saturn killing Zealandia with her rifle, collecting the bounty and marking one of the first times that Lonestar deployed ground troops in PVP combat.

Early in the morning on March 4th, [[XiJinping_]], [[CursedSaturn]], Abu_42069_, and Sovrah would engage in a lengthy battle in regulus against Blockbuster019 and Maidpierce, which resulted in the capture of Regulus Fuel Depot and 3 ship sinks by Sovrah. The next day, Sovrah would finalize the printing of the first home-brewed Lonestar Battlecruiser in survival, the Veyron class.

On March 19th, 2025, Chairmanship of Lonestar was transferred to WanderingOtter, and Hextagon was made advisor. Later the same day, Lonestar CursedSaturn killed server director Gutin in ground combat.

== Politics ==
Rather than a nation with a political governing body, Lonestar is an interstellar megacorporation that subsidizes small, local governments which are largely permitted to act autonomously so long as the corporation is able to bring some profit from their success. At the head of Lonestar is the Chairman, who largely acts unilaterally--the Chairman's decisions require no approval. However, the Chairman generally accepts input and advice from the Executive Panel. The Lonestar Executives in turn act largely without outside interference or requirements of approval within their spheres of influence, provided their enterprises bring profit to the corporation. The rest of Lonestar is made up of the secretariat, debt-collecting corporate enforcers, engineers, and various interns.

In dealings with the various nations of Horizon's End, Lonestar tends to act with neutrality--continuing the Texas tradition of neutrality and independence--or taking the course of action that brings it the most profit. It is even willing to engage in business deals with pirates, provided those pirates do not engage in any hostilities toward the Lonestar corporate fleet.

== Claims==
Aarmance, an under-construction city settlement located on Aerach's Tulip Shores

Olympus, a black and pearlescent city built on Qatra's Oroduin Caldera, formerly known as Starfall

Texas, a parking lot and corporate vault located in Vask's Floro Mountains

Leafside, an extremely fresh settlement of new players located on Aerach's Kran's Island Minor

Palmyra, named after the namesake ancient city filled with intact ai ships located on Aerach's Ardea Ocean

Hargeysa, a dummy settlement for the under construction HIS Magnum interplanetary war station

== Military ==
Lonestar fields a respectable military. Its fleet is composed of numerous custom-designed advanced warships, as well as the less sophisticated but more economically viable “zekeships.” Little is known or will be disclosed about it beyond this, save that it is unfazed by the loss of ships as large as destroyers. Nonstandard ships of its fleet have no prefix, but standard-issue modern warships produced at Akiba for the Debt Collection Fleet use the "A.C.S." prefix, for "Akiba Collector Ship."

Starship Weapons

'''Starship weapons''' are used to deal damage to other starships, players, and entities.

[[Light Weapons]] are fired by left clicking with a controller. Multiple light weapons can be fired at once if you are not using [[weaponsets]] and [[nodes]] to control which weapons fire.

[[Heavy Weapons]] are fired by right clicking with a controller after a brief charge-up delay. Only one type of heavy weapon can be fired at a time, so ships with multiple heavy weapons must control them using weaponsets and nodes. Attempting to fire more than one weapon will jam the systems.

Turrets can fire in any direction that they have line of sight in. All turrets except for the [[Tri Turret]] are light weapons. [[Light Turrets]], Tri Turrets, and [[Point Defense Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>. Point Defense Turrets are light weapons and cannot be fired manually.

Some weapons such as [[Plasma Cannons]], [[Interceptor Cannons]], and [[Torpedoes]], can only fire forwards. The direction of fire for these weapons is the opposite direction of maximum thrust.

Players take 5 hearts of true damage when hit with any starship weapon.

= Light Weapons =
Light weapons have a comparatively high fire rate and low damage. Fire by left clicking with a clock.

'''Plasma cannons''' are the best light weapon for small ships; they deal great damage and have a good fire rate. However, they can only fire forwards, and are limited by poor arcs of fire, making ships that can only mount plasmas (like Starfighters and Tackle Gunships) very vulnerable to fast adversaries armed with turrets or pulse cannons.

'''Ion turrets''' are unique manual weapons that disrupt systems in an 8x8 cube around where their shots impact. This disruption disables thrusters in the area for 5 seconds, reducing cruise speed for a time. This mechanic has no effect on ships using direct control. Ion turret projectiles are very slow and also deal a modest amount of shield damage, and minimal hull damage. Ion turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret].

Heavy weapons are weapons operating on an alternate weapons system. Hold right click to activate. Most heavy weapons consume ammo from a [[Magazine]].

You cannot fire more than one heavy weapon at a time. Attempting to do so will jam the ship's systems and prevent all heavy weapons from firing. Circumventing this issue is done with node signs.

'''Tri-turrets''' are hefty artillery pieces that deal great damage. Due to the projectile's slow speed, they are most useful against the largest ships.

The lowermost sponge block (where the sign is attached) may be any block; sponge is used as a placeholder. Tri-turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret], just like any other turret.

Tri-turrets can be noded with signs to fire automatically or manually. This is done by placing a [node] sign on the turret sign.

'''Arsenal Missile Launchers''' fire arsenal missiles, highly accurate guided projectiles that deal massive damage to area shields. They have modest explosion damage, and minimal ship shield damage. They can be fired much like any other heavy weapon, however they require the player to select the weaponset assigned to the missiles and perform /targetposition [x] [y] [z]. They are best used to assault area-shielded structures such as ground bases, stations, and [[Base Defense Platform|BDPs]]. A node sign can be placed on the note block. Consumes 1 Arsenal Missile per shot.

'''Gunships''' are the second smallest possible warships, ranging between 500 to 2,000 blocks, and being unlocked at level 10.

This warship class is designed to counter smaller ships, leveraging its wide arc pulse cannons, light turrets, and its tracking heavy lasers.

Gunships are countered directly by [[Corvettes]], and indirectly by [[Light Frigates]], and [[Attack Frigates]]. Gunships are a direct counter to [[Interceptors]] and [[Starfighters]].

== Subclasses ==
[[Tackle Gunship]], usually 500 Blocks. A twin of the [[starfighter]] that lost popularity since it's ability to use a [[Gravity Well (Starship)|Gravity Well]] was removed.

[[Light Gunship]], usually 1,011-1,030 Blocks. A small craft armed with Pulse Cannons and Heavy Lasers

[[Heavy Gunship]], usually 2,000 Blocks. Equipped with light turrets

Starship Weapons

2025-09-20T00:22:37Z

Twille: Edited Torpedo range to match buffed values that have existed since at least August

'''Starship weapons''' are used to deal damage to other starships, players, and entities.

[[Light Weapons]] are fired by left clicking with a controller. Multiple light weapons can be fired at once if you are not using [[weaponsets]] and [[nodes]] to control which weapons fire.

[[Heavy Weapons]] are fired by right clicking with a controller after a brief charge-up delay. Only one type of heavy weapon can be fired at a time, so ships with multiple heavy weapons must control them using weaponsets and nodes. Attempting to fire more than one weapon will jam the systems.

Turrets can fire in any direction that they have line of sight in. All turrets except for the [[Tri Turret]] are light weapons. [[Light Turrets]], Tri Turrets, and [[Point Defense Turrets]] can automatically fire on player or ship targets designated using <code>/settarget [node] [player]</code> or <code>/st [node] [player]</code>. Point Defense Turrets are light weapons and cannot be fired manually.

Some weapons such as [[Plasma Cannons]], [[Interceptor Cannons]], and [[Torpedoes]], can only fire forwards. The direction of fire for these weapons is the opposite direction of maximum thrust.

Players take 5 hearts of true damage when hit with any starship weapon.

= Light Weapons =
Light weapons have a comparatively high fire rate and low damage. Fire by left clicking with a clock.

'''Ion turrets''' are unique manual weapons that disrupt systems in an 8x8 cube around where their shots impact. This disruption disables thrusters in the area for 5 seconds, reducing cruise speed for a time. This mechanic has no effect on ships using direct control.

'''Tri-turrets''' are hefty artillery pieces that deal great damage. Due to the projectile's slow speed, they are most useful against the largest ships.

The lowermost sponge block (where the sign is attached) may be any block; sponge is used as a placeholder. Tri-turrets can be detected with the sign text [turret], just like any other turret.

Tri-turrets can be noded with signs to fire automatically or manually. This is done by placing a [node] sign on the turret sign.

'''Arsenal Missile Launchers''' fire arsenal missiles, highly accurate guided projectiles that deal massive damage to area shields. They have modest explosion damage, and minimal ship shield damage. They can be fired much like any other heavy weapon, however they require the player to select the weaponset assigned to the missiles and perform /targetposition [x] [y] [z]. They are best used to assault area-shielded structures such as ground bases, stations, and [[Base Defense Platform|BDPs]]. A node sign can be placed on the note block. Consumes 1 Arsenal Missile per shot.

'''An auto mason''' is a multiblock that will automatically execute stonecutter recipes.

==Usage==
The output of crafting is determined by a reference block, placed in the open spot in the middle of the multiblock structure. The center type will cause the input items to be searched for polished, chiseled, smooth, stripped, plank, slab, stair, wall, button, brick, pillar, cut, tile, or grate variants. The material used for the center type does not matter, only which crafted type it is. When input items are received, if there is a recipe that can be executed to create an output, for example, stairs, they will be crafted, and added to the output inventory on the opposite side of the multiblock.

==Advanced Ship factory==
An auto mason can be [[Multiblock Merging|merged]] with an [[Ship_Factory#Advanced_Ship_Factory|advanced ship factory]]. When doing this the auto mason will craft any block regardless of the block put in the center. The auto mason will do this as long as the ship factory requests blocks that can be crafted by the auto mason. To be able to merge an auto mason you have to replace the output chest and the 5 adjacent blocks with a "merge port". This port consists of 4 Netherite blocks and 2 lodestones.

'''Aerach''' is the second planet located in the Regulus system. Its beautiful hilly landscapes are blanketed by delicate cherry blossom trees. Named after the Irish word for gay, this temperate planet is based on the planet of Sakaro from Star Legacy.

== Culture ==
Being named after the Irish word for gay, the planet has come to be known as the "gay planet", and has attracted a minor following amongst some of the server's queer player base. On occasions for reasons no one is really sure of, some players, most notably [[Astralchroma]] and [[CursedSaturn]] participate in chaining/spamming "gay planet" in the server's global chat, being asked to stop by staff on some occasions.

== Notable Landmarks ==
=== Aerost ===
Aerost is an NPC [[trade outpost]] located on the south side of Aerach; it is one of twelve [[safezone]]s on the server.
 When visiting this outpost, players can interact with the [[bazaar]], buy [[crate]]s, and start [[daily commissions]].
=== Cicatrix ===
{{main|Cicatrix}}
Cicatrix is a large city in the north of Aerach, owned by [[Radiance]] and led by [[star_litty]]. Employing a fanciful, diverse building style, and leaning heavily into the pink-and-white theming of both Aerach and Radiance, Cicatrix is the capital of Radiance and the center of the nation's activity.
 Formerly named "cherrytown", the name "Cicatrix" refers to the scar of a healed wound. The name was chosen approximately 1.5 days prior to the [[Radiant Revolution]].
=== Elysium ===
{{main|Elysium}}
Elysium is a large city in the northeast of Aerach, owned by [[Praetoria]] and led by [[YourPalNova]].
 Despite largely remaining out of the server spotlight since its founding, Elysium has become a relatively large city, only slightly smaller than neighboring Cicatrix.

The Separatist-Valkyrie War is an ongoing military conflict between The [[Separatist Alliance]] and [[Valkyrie]].

== Prelude ==
Orovika's war

== Conflict ==

=== May 10 Siege ===
[[DoctorDiamond1]] of Valkyrie sieged station IliosFuelDepot from The Separatist Alliance, capturing it succesfully. TheGamingBananaV would then come to defend, resieging it succesfully. No casualities occured during this incident, however this event would mark the beginning of the war.

==== May 16 ====
[[DoctorDiamond1]] succesfully sieged IliosFuelDepot from The Separatist Alliance uncontested.

==== May 17 ====
A Separatist force consistenting of TheGamingBananaV, henryberto, Gabrielhulk10, along with their ally [[Thrawn31]] of [[The Galactic Empire (2025)]], attempted to resiege IliosFuelDepot. Valkyrie responded, sending in [[DoctorDiamond1]], [[Kingsheep3]], and WitherBlood07, succesfully sinking 2 500s, 3 1ks, a corvette, and successfully stopping the siege.

Later in the day, Valkyrieans Kingsheep3 and [[AdelieXY]] moved to siege the Separatist station GateProjectGamma, assisted by Arimfeans Lud_Bud and Wagglebee. The Separatists moved to defend their station, along with Thrawn31 and aerobar200 both piloting 12ks. Both Arimfeans, piloting 2ks, were sunk by Separatists while on their way to the siege station. Upon seeing the 2 12ks, Kingsheep3 and AdelieXY chose to abandon their siege.

Immediately after the failed siege, The Galactic Empire worked out a deal with Valkyrie, agreeing to cease hostilities between the two parties and Arimfea, providing The Galatic Empire does not provide support to The Separatist Alliance in their war.

==== May 18 ====
Separatists Gabrielhulk10 and henryberto sink Valkyriean MagicMasterRory's [[Frigate]].

=== May 20 Battle of Raxus ===
{{Main|The Humiliating Battle of Raxus}}
Valkyrie attempts to siege Separatist capital Raxus on Aret, resulting in a Valkyrean [[Starfighter]] and [[Interceptor]] being sunk.

==== May 21 ====
DoctorDiamond1 attacked TheGamingBananaV in [[Trench]], sinking the Separatist [[Tackle Gunship]]. As backup arrived for both sides, Kingsheep3's interceptor was sunk.

AdelieXY engaged with TSA forces, sinking 3 tackle gunships, 1 starfighter, and 1 1k before his own 1k was sunk. Chewywookie09 later arrived to back AdelieXY up in an interceptor, but was sunk by TheGamingBananaV.

==== May 22 ====
Valkyriean Wiitedo's [[Shuttle]] was sunk in the early morning by henryberto.

A Valkyriean [[Transport]] piloted by Snikityminecraft was sunk by henryberto.

TSA and Valkyriean DoctorDiamond1 and rogue player Twille engage around Aret. DoctorDiamond1's 2k and Twille's intercepter are both sunk, with TSA losing a tackle gunship in the battle.

Separtists engaged in a pirate attack against Twille, sinking the light freighter, "Girls Kissing".

==== May 23 ====
Vask Authority's [[Z4nityy]], supported by GriffMinester engaged against 3 Valkyrean ships, 2 9.7ks and 1 7.5k, sinking all of them. TSA forces joined near the end of the battle, helping to sink the last 9.7k and a starfighter.

==== May 24 ====
TSA forces would engage with Arimfeans, resulting in Arimfea losing a 2k and 2 [[Corvette]].

AdelieXY fought with TSA and Z4nnity, sinking a separatist tackle gunship and losing his own 1k. Z4nnity would go on to jump to Twille's Station and sink an unpiloted 2.2k Corv while she was storing blocks from the AI Hunt it had just been used for.

Z4nnity attempted an attack on a group of Carthaginians in [[Horizon]]. In response, Valkyrie sent forces in support of the [[Republic of Carthage]], resulting in them entering into an alliance with each other.

==== May 25 ====
Z4nitty sunk Carthaginian Mr_CleanCreeper's heavy freighter in a pirate attack.

Separatists attacked DoctorDiamond1, sinking his 1k.

Carthaginian epic_man_9 engaged in a skirmish in Sirius with Separatists and Vask Authority players. Vegan CZ10_XP would jump to the fight claiming they were acting as, "border patrol." The Carthaginians lost a tackle gunship and a corvette.
