Homestead

From the Star Citizen Wiki, the fidelity™ encyclopedia
Lineup of the Homestead variation D

Homesteads are an intended feature in Star Citizen, where players will be able to build and own different structures, ranging from small homes to warehouses or communal buildings. Homesteads can be built inside or outside of a Land Claim, but those built outside a Land Claim will forfeit property rights or protection by United Empire of Earth (UEE) and local law enforcement agencies[1].

Protection

Homesteads can be located in High Security, Low Security and No Security areas. High Security areas are located in UE controlled territory. Low Security areas are located in an area controlled by an independent corporation, gang or faction. No Security areas are unprotected. Homesteads located in High and Low Security areas are subjected to taxes and/or fees, whereas those in lawless areas require no official fees or taxes[1].

Structures

Players can build structures in their homesteads employing a variety of construction vehicles, ranging from the Surveyor to the Pioneer. The vehicle employed will determine which structures (Small, Medium, Large, Extra-large) can be build.

Outposts may consist of a number of different interconnected modules, each of which has a particular purpose. The owner may grant permission to access the available facilities to any individual or organization they wish.

The habitation module enables authorized users to respawn at that location. The armory is a small arms storage locker, intended to ensure that any defenders of the establishment have sufficient firepower on hand to repel intruders. The refining module allows ore to be deposited for separation into its component elements and later retrieved, such that the required storage space will have been greatly reduced and the profit margin enhanced. The hydroponics module fosters the growth of various types of organic materials for periodic harvesting. Additional storage modules increase the quantity of raw ore, refined materials, organic products, and supplies that may be held at the outpost at a given time. Finally, the medical module provides basic medical services and equipment, and is sufficient to cure most diseases and patch most injuries.
