Station Building Service

The Hephaistos Corporation supports the player in building stations. After ordering stations the Hephaistos Corp. will care about purchasing, delivering and building the stations as compact as possible at a desired place.

To use station building services in X3: Albion Prelude (X3AP), dock a TL class ship at a shipyard to buy a station blueprint, then take the TL to your desired sector and use the “Build Station” command from its action menu to place it on the sector map. For automated building, dock a TL at a station with a shipyard, then use the “Station Build Service” command (found under Communication) to order multiple stations at once for a higher cost.

Using the Station Build Service Mod

This is a mod for the game that allows for more automated building.

  1. Access the Build Service: In the communication menu (usually category 5), select “Station Build Service”.

  2. Order Stations: Choose the station(s) you want to build, up to the available buildslots in the current zone.

  3. Confirmation: Order the stations. Note that this service costs 25% more than building them manually.

  4. Completion: The service will build the station and transfer ownership to you once it's complete.
