Parts

Parts are the components of an Exocraft, and have various functions depending on their class. Additional parts you do not want to use can be stored, which can be done in the Hangar.

## Obtaining Parts

* They can be obtained by spending Gems and Credits in the Hangar.
* They can also be found while excavating Mines and Shipwrecks.
* They can be found in Supply Drops, though you have no outcome on what you get so it is not advised to use this as the main method to obtain Parts.
* Special Leviathan themed Parts can be obtained from a Leviathan Core
* Obtained from making offerings at the Offering Well.

## Part Classes and Costs

There are currently 5 different Part Classes.

#### Pilot Pod

* 25,000 Credits and 750 Gems when purchased.
* 12800 Credits and 150 Gems when sold.

#### Drone Bay

* 2,500 Credits and 100 Gems when purchased.
* 1275 Credits and 20 Gems when sold.

#### Cargo Hold

* 2,500 Credits and 100 Gems when purchased.
* 1275 Credits and 20 Gems when sold.

#### Crew Cabin

* 2,500 Credits and 100 Gems when purchased.
* 1275 Credits and 20 Gems when sold.

#### Miscellaneous Parts

* 1,000 Credits and 50 Gems when purchased.
* 500 Credits and 10 Gems when sold.

With two exceptions, when Parts are sold at the Salvage Yard you will obtain 1,275 Credits and 150 Gems. Pilot Pods however net you 12,800 Credits and 150 Gems, while Miscellaneous is 500 Credits and 10 Gems.

*If a Part has a tile multiplier such as 2x, 4x, etc. Then the cost multiplies by that much, so a Drone bay with 2x would then cost 5,000 Credits and 200 Gems.*

## Part Classes Explained

All Parts have a base health of 100, this can be increased directly by clicking on the Part in the hangar and going down the the bottom left hand corner and clicking the button with the arrow, this allows you to upgrade Parts. This can also buff Parts other stats, such as damage and defense.

### Pilot Pods

These are the all-purpose Parts of an Exocraft, like the Drone bay they boost Drone attack. They are also indestructible, the basic one tile version can carry 1 Drone, 1 crew member, and twice the space of a single tile Cargo Hold. You can have a maximum of 11 Pilot Pod tiles on your Exocraft at once, for each 5 tiles used on your Exocraft, there should be no more than 1 tile of Pilot Pod.

They can either be 1 tile in area or two tiles in area.

The Pilot Pods with 2 tiles carry 2 drones, 2 crew members, and 4 Cargo Holds worth of Crystals.

 When an Exocraft is attacked the Pilot Pod will not be targeted unless all other parts have been destroyed. When a Pilot Pod is attacked it does not take damage, making it so you can never 'lose' the game.

### Drone Bays

Drone Bays allow your Exocraft to hold more drones, unlike Pilot Pods, they are destructible. For each tile the Drone bay has it can hold another drone. All Drone Bays boost drone attack damage just like Pilot Pods.

### Cargo Holds

Cargo Holds store cargo, with the largest being 9 tiles big with 4 connection points.

### Crew Cabins

Crew Cabins allow you to assign extra crew onto your ship, they also come with the added benefit of increased defense. For each tile a crew cabin has it can store 1 extra crew member.

### Miscellaneous

Miscellaneous Parts are the cheapest parts to buy and only boost defense, for every extra tile they have they add more defense onto your Exocraft.

***Please note that thrusters are only cosmetic and do not increase speed.***

## Upgrading parts

*This section is in progress.*

In the Cost / Benefits column, the cost to upgrade is on the top, and the improvement is listed below. For example, the cost to upgrade the Cargo Hold from level 1 to 2 is 1100 **c**redits, 40 **g**ems, and gets boosted 40 HP and 27 cargo space.

## Trivia

* The current biggest part in the game is the x9 Cargo Hold.
* The default part color is red.
* Pilot Pods are the only indestructible type of block, it is depicted as infinite health, although it can be destroyed if other parts connecting it to another pilot pod gets destroyed.
* Pilot Pods is considered to have 0 health when viewed in the sum of health inside the Hangar.
* There is only one Pilot Pod that is 2x horizontally, the rest are vertically 2 tiles.
* The biggest Pilot Pod is a 3x vertical, and can only be obtained from Supply Drops and Party Drops.
* If you are running out of storage to store your parts you may want to buy another ship for your fleet and level it up. A fully leveled ship can hold a maximum of 50 parts. Alternatively you can increase your storage, but this quickly gets expensive and is not as useful as having another ship in your fleet. You can also sell your unwanted parts to make room for more parts.
* If you pick up a part from the ground it goes into your ship's storage. If you are full on crystal you may need to dump some crystal to make room. If the parts storage in your hangar is full you won't be able to store the part your ship is carrying. Additionally if you do not want to keep the part you may drop it for someone else to pick up instead.
