cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/17943610

Mostly stuff we've already seen but provides the most up to date info about personal hangars.

• Chad McKinney, Senior Lead Gameplay Engineer

TL;DW:

• item kiosk have limited capacity, can only spawn smaller items (weapons, armor, food, etc)
• unwelcome guests will get a trespassing timer when entering your personal hangar, will get teleported out after it runs out
• no more Armistice Zone in your hangar, you can kill trespassers without worrying about getting a Crime Stat
• the above counts for both personal hangars (the one on your home planet) and instanced hangars assigned when landing at other landing zones
• you can place items all over your personal hangar
• hangars were expanded to provide more space to decorate them or just store items when spawning your ship
• hangars applied to some ships were increased
• when buying commodities you can select whether you want them delivered to you inventory (instant) or pack them on your ship (takes time and money)
• you can create "sell orders" which will be wait for you to deliver the accepted amount of commodity to the freight elevator on the delivery location
• you can also sell normally (straight from your local inventory)
• (un)loading times are based on the box size (smaller box = longer loading)
• search is in for local inventory (only name based for now)
