# Ship System

<figure><img src="/files/37eE3PNzYaVwHSd9ZAO3" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

For your starship to function, it must be equipped with specialized **Ship Systems**. These modular components are the heart of your vessel, providing critical functions from propulsion to defense.

Systems range from simple, mass-produced models to advanced technological wonders and even mythical, enigmatic artifacts. Each one directly impacts your ship's capabilities, allowing you to tailor your configuration to specific tasks—whether that's dominating in space combat or hauling heavy mining equipment.

Naturally, more powerful and sophisticated systems are more valuable. You'll need to earn, craft, or trade for the right components. And if you're exceptionally lucky, you might even salvage them from the depths of space.
