Space platform foundations are used to extend the dimensions of a space platform. Nearly any building can be placed on the foundation to add to the functionality of a space platform. They are also essential components for the space platform starter pack, which creates a space platform when launched with a rocket. The starting space platform will not be large enough for other buildings, so more space platform foundations must be sent to the platform to extend its size.

Notes

  • Each platform starter pack comes with 10 space platform foundations in the inventory and 36 space platform foundations placed around the Space platform hub.
  • Space platforms cannot be built with holes in them. If the player tries to create the hole, the space platform foundation will not build and will display a warning.
  • It takes 5 space platform foundations to increase a ship's weight by one ton (200kg or 0.2 tons per platform). This is different from the rocket launch weight of 20 kg per Space platform foundation (50 tiles / 1000kg = 20kg).
  • When building a space platform from a blueprint or remote map view, each tile has a 1-second expansion animation. Each space platform foundation will do the expansion animation on its three exposed faces for 1 tile of length before repeating.
  • When a space platform foundation gets destroyed, everything not connected to the space platform hub will be destroyed.
