Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

==== Variable Modules ====
==== Launch and Recovery Sequence ====
Select Armaments -> Give Flight Sortie Command -> Arm -> Traverse -> Launch -> Return to Base -> Traverse -> Disarm -> Repair -> Store

==== Arming/disarming time ====
A Craft must be readied before it can sortie from a carrier. This includes loading fuel and ordinance onto the Craft. The duration to complete the readying operation depends on the the size and ammunition loaded the time that. This ranges from arming a vehicle without armaments with virtually little to no time to a significant amount of time such as your bombers.

When a craft returns, any unspent ordinance must be removed and returned to stores, this occurs before the craft is repaired.

Some Carriers have bonuses to Arming Speed, and the Gear Deck Locker can increase the speed as well.
==== Deck Traversal Time====
Deck Traversal is similar to the Arming/Disarming time above. However it occurs after the craft has been fully armed and positions the craft on the launch pad.

A similar amount of time occurs when a craft is recovered before it is sent to be Disarmed.

Some Carriers have bonuses to Arming Speed, and the Flight Deck Traversal System can increase the speed as well.
==== Craft Repair ====
Any damaged Craft are repaired after their armaments have been removed but before they are available to be selected to launch from the Hangar.

The number of slots that a craft can repair at is equal to the number of small and large launch pads on the selected Carrier. For example the Levy has 2 Large and 4 small pads while the number of pads for the OSP is directly related to the number of Bank Hangar's installed.

This number can be increased with Spacecraft Repair Station, this will allow additional craft to be repaired in addition to the ones that can be armed on the launch pads. For example, a Levy with 2 Spacecraft Repair Stations can repair 4 Claymore Torpedo Flight at the same time and launch them much faster than they would otherwise

==== Preflight Slots ====
The number of slots that a craft can armed is equal to the number of small and large launch pads on the selected Carrier. For example the Levy has 2 Large and 4 small pads while the number of pads for the OSP is directly related to the number of Bank Hangar's installed.

This number can be increased with Spacecraft Strikedown Station, this will allow additional craft to be armed in addition to the ones that can be armed on the launch pads. This will allow craft to instantely traverse to the launch pad after the previous flight has been returned or sortied. For example, a Levy with 2 Spacecraft Strikedown Stations can arm a 4 wing Claymore Torpedo Flight at the same time and launch them much faster than they would otherwise

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

==== Variable Modules ====
==== Launch and Recovery Sequence ====
Select Flight/Armaments and give Sortie Command -> Arm -> Traverse -> Launch -> Return to Base -> Traverse -> Disarm -> Repair -> Store

==== Arming/disarming time ====
A Craft must be readied before it can sortie from a carrier. This includes loading fuel and ordinance onto the Craft. The duration to complete the readying operation depends on the the size and ammunition loaded the time that. This ranges from arming a vehicle without armaments with virtually little to no time to a significant amount of time such as your bombers.

When a craft returns, any unspent ordinance must be removed and returned to stores, this occurs before the craft is repaired.

Some Carriers have bonuses to Arming Speed, and the Gear Deck Locker can increase the speed as well.
==== Deck Traversal Time====
Deck Traversal is similar to the Arming/Disarming time above. However it occurs after the craft has been fully armed and positions the craft on the launch pad.

A similar amount of time occurs when a craft is recovered before it is sent to be Disarmed.

Some Carriers have bonuses to Arming Speed, and the Flight Deck Traversal System can increase the speed as well.
==== Craft Repair ====
Any damaged Craft are repaired after their armaments have been removed but before they are available to be selected to launch from the Hangar.

The number of slots that a craft can repair at is equal to the number of small and large launch pads on the selected Carrier. For example the Levy has 2 Large and 4 small pads while the number of pads for the OSP is directly related to the number of Bank Hangar's installed.

This number can be increased with Spacecraft Repair Station, this will allow additional craft to be repaired in addition to the ones that can be armed on the launch pads. For example, a Levy with 2 Spacecraft Repair Stations can repair 4 Claymore Torpedo Flight at the same time and launch them much faster than they would otherwise

==== Preflight Slots ====
The number of slots that a craft can armed is equal to the number of small and large launch pads on the selected Carrier. For example the Levy has 2 Large and 4 small pads while the number of pads for the OSP is directly related to the number of Bank Hangar's installed.

This number can be increased with Spacecraft Strikedown Station, this will allow additional craft to be armed in addition to the ones that can be armed on the launch pads. This will allow craft to instantely traverse to the launch pad after the previous flight has been returned or sortied. For example, a Levy with 2 Spacecraft Strikedown Stations can arm a 4 wing Claymore Torpedo Flight at the same time and launch them much faster than they would otherwise

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

==== Variable Modules ====
==== Launch and Recovery Sequence ====
Select Flight/Armaments and give Sotrie Command -> Arm -> Traverse -> Launch -> Return to Base -> Traverse -> Disarm -> Repair -> Store

==== Arming/disarming time ====
A Craft must be readied before it can sortie from a carrier. This includes loading fuel and ordinance onto the Craft. The duration to complete the readying operation depends on the the size and ammunition loaded the time that. This ranges from arming a vehicle without armaments with virtually little to no time to a significant amount of time such as your bombers.

When a craft returns, any unspent ordinance must be removed and returned to stores, this occurs before the craft is repaired.

Some Carriers have bonuses to Arming Speed, and the Gear Deck Locker can increase the speed as well.
==== Deck Traversal Time====
Deck Traversal is similar to the Arming/Disarming time above. However it occurs after the craft has been fully armed and positions the craft on the launch pad.

A similar amount of time occurs when a craft is recovered before it is sent to be Disarmed.

Some Carriers have bonuses to Arming Speed, and the Flight Deck Traversal System can increase the speed as well.
==== Craft Repair ====
Any damaged Craft are repaired after their armaments have been removed but before they are available to be selected to launch from the Hangar.

The number of slots that a craft can repair at is equal to the number of small and large launch pads on the selected Carrier. For example the Levy has 2 Large and 4 small pads while the number of pads for the OSP is directly related to the number of Bank Hangar's installed.

This number can be increased with Spacecraft Repair Station, this will allow additional craft to be repaired in addition to the ones that can be armed on the launch pads. For example, a Levy with 2 Spacecraft Repair Stations can repair 4 Claymore Torpedo Flight at the same time and launch them much faster than they would otherwise

==== Preflight Slots ====
The number of slots that a craft can armed is equal to the number of small and large launch pads on the selected Carrier. For example the Levy has 2 Large and 4 small pads while the number of pads for the OSP is directly related to the number of Bank Hangar's installed.

This number can be increased with Spacecraft Strikedown Station, this will allow additional craft to be armed in addition to the ones that can be armed on the launch pads. This will allow craft to instantely traverse to the launch pad after the previous flight has been returned or sortied. For example, a Levy with 2 Spacecraft Strikedown Stations can arm a 4 wing Claymore Torpedo Flight at the same time and launch them much faster than they would otherwise

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

==== Variable Modules ====
==== Launch and Recovery Sequence ====
Arm -> Traverse -> Launch -> Return to Base -> Traverse -> Disarm -> Repair -> Store

==== Arming/disarming time ====
A Craft must be readied before it can sortie from a carrier. This includes loading fuel and ordinance onto the Craft. The duration to complete the readying operation depends on the the size and ammunition loaded the time that. This ranges from arming a vehicle without armaments with virtually little to no time to a significant amount of time such as your bombers.

When a craft returns, any unspent ordinance must be removed and returned to stores, this occurs before the craft is repaired.

Some Carriers have bonuses to Arming Speed, and the Gear Deck Locker can increase the speed as well.
==== Deck Traversal Time====
Deck Traversal is similar to the Arming/Disarming time above. However it occurs after the craft has been fully armed and positions the craft on the launch pad.

A similar amount of time occurs when a craft is recovered before it is sent to be Disarmed.

Some Carriers have bonuses to Arming Speed, and the Flight Deck Traversal System can increase the speed as well.
==== Craft Repair ====
Any damaged Craft are repaired after their armaments have been removed but before they are available to be selected to launch from the Hangar.

The number of slots that a craft can repair at is equal to the number of small and large launch pads on the selected Carrier. For example the Levy has 2 Large and 4 small pads while the number of pads for the OSP is directly related to the number of Bank Hangar's installed.

This number can be increased with Spacecraft Repair Station, this will allow additional craft to be repaired in addition to the ones that can be armed on the launch pads. For example, a Levy with 2 Spacecraft Repair Stations can repair 4 Claymore Torpedo Flight at the same time and launch them much faster than they would otherwise

==== Preflight Slots ====
The number of slots that a craft can armed is equal to the number of small and large launch pads on the selected Carrier. For example the Levy has 2 Large and 4 small pads while the number of pads for the OSP is directly related to the number of Bank Hangar's installed.

This number can be increased with Spacecraft Strikedown Station, this will allow additional craft to be armed in addition to the ones that can be armed on the launch pads. This will allow craft to instantely traverse to the launch pad after the previous flight has been returned or sortied. For example, a Levy with 2 Spacecraft Strikedown Stations can arm a 4 wing Claymore Torpedo Flight at the same time and launch them much faster than they would otherwise

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

==== Variable Modules ====
==== Arming/disarming time ====
A Craft must be readied before it can sortie from a carrier. This includes loading fuel and ordinance onto the Craft. The duration to complete the readying operation depends on the the size and ammunition loaded the time that. This ranges from arming a vehicle without armaments with virtually little to no time to a significant amount of time such as your bombers.

When a craft returns, any unspent ordinance must be removed and returned to stores, this occurs before the craft is repaired.

Some Carriers have bonuses to Arming Speed, and the Gear Deck Locker can increase the speed as well.
==== Deck Traversal Time====
Deck Traversal is similar to the Arming/Disarming time above. However it occurs after the craft has been fully armed and positions the craft on the launch pad.

A similar amount of time occurs when a craft is recovered before it is sent to be Disarmed.

Some Carriers have bonuses to Arming Speed, and the Flight Deck Traversal System can increase the speed as well.
==== Craft Repair ====
Any damaged Craft are repaired after their armaments have been removed but before they are available to be selected to launch from the Hangar.

The number of slots that a craft can repair at is equal to the number of small and large launch pads on the selected Carrier. For example the Levy has 2 Large and 4 small pads while the number of pads for the OSP is directly related to the number of Bank Hangar's installed.

This number can be increased with Spacecraft Repair Station, this will allow additional craft to be repaired in addition to the ones that can be armed on the launch pads. For example, a Levy with 2 Spacecraft Repair Stations can repair 4 Claymore Torpedo Flight at the same time and launch them much faster than they would otherwise

==== Preflight Slots ====
The number of slots that a craft can armed is equal to the number of small and large launch pads on the selected Carrier. For example the Levy has 2 Large and 4 small pads while the number of pads for the OSP is directly related to the number of Bank Hangar's installed.

This number can be increased with Spacecraft Strikedown Station, this will allow additional craft to be armed in addition to the ones that can be armed on the launch pads. This will allow craft to instantely traverse to the launch pad after the previous flight has been returned or sortied. For example, a Levy with 2 Spacecraft Strikedown Stations can arm a 4 wing Claymore Torpedo Flight at the same time and launch them much faster than they would otherwise

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.

| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ RANGE (Attack Range)
|-
! State !! Anti-Craft !! Anti-Ship
|-

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

== Integrity rating ==
A ship's integrity directly affects how resistant its components are to damage. Lots of empty space means less structural members to absorb damage and protect components. A ship with the majority of its component slots filled will have full protection of the hull's Damage Reduction value, while a mostly empty hull will not.

== Ship hulls ==
Ship hulls determine a ship's base stats as well as how many components it can have.

=== Shelter Alliance hulls [[File:Alliance Roundel.png|25px]] ===
Shelter Alliance ships scale linearly. Larger ships are more resilient and carry more components but are slower and more expensive.

== Integrity rating ==
A ship's integrity directly affects how resistant its components are to damage. Lots of empty space means less structural members to absorb damage and protect components. A ship with the majority of its component slots filled will have full protection of the hull's Damage Reduction value, while a mostly empty hull will not.

== Ship hulls ==
Ship hulls determine a ship's base stats as well as how many components it can have.

=== Shelter Alliance hulls [[File:Alliance Roundel.png|25px]] ===
Shelter Alliance ships scale linearly. Larger ships are more resilient and carry more components but are slower and more expensive.

[[File:Craft Editor.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the spacecraft designer in the fleet editor.|The spacecraft designer]]
Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

[[File:Craft Editor.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the spacecraft designer in the fleet editor.|The spacecraft designer]]
Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

[[File:Craft Editor.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the spacecraft designer in the fleet editor.|The spacecraft designer]]
Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

[[File:Craft Editor.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the spacecraft designer in the fleet editor.|The spacecraft designer]]
Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-
| FOCUS || Craft will always attack the selected target.
|-
| SPLIT || Craft will always attack multiple different targets.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ SALVO (Missile/Bomb Salvo Size)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will fire as if on UNLIM against ships but will reduce missile amounts against craft/missiles.
|-
| ONE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if one missile is already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| TWO || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if two missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| THREE || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if three missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| FOUR || Craft will not fire more missiles against a target if four missiles are already in flight for that target. Resets on re-issuing attack order.
|-
| UNLIM || Craft will fire missiles regardless of missiles already in flight.
|}

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.

__TOC__
</div>

[[File:Craft Editor.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the spacecraft designer in the fleet editor.|The spacecraft designer]]
Spacecraft (or craft for short) are aircraft-like small vehicles that can be launched from hangars on larger ships. They can perform a number of roles, including scouting, electronic warfare, anti-missile and anti-craft fire, and anti-ship strikes. Their ability to receive orders after launch makes them more flexible than other tools such as cruise missiles.
<div style="clear: both"></div>

== Spacecraft Mechanics ==
=== Controls ===
==== Right-Click Commands ====
Craft are controlled similarly to ships, but with context-sensitive actions depending on the item the cursor is pointing at when right-clicked. Where multiple valid controls exist, additional commands may be accessed by holding Shift.
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Right-click commands
|-
! Object clicked !! Modifier !! Requirements !! Action !! Explanation
|-
| Space || || None || Move || Opens the dial widget to allow movement. Holding Shift will allow placement of waypoints as normal. May also be opened via the ship 'move to position' hotkey.
|-
| Friendly Ship || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target ship. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the ship's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Ship || Shift || Landing Pad || Land || Craft will line up and attempt to land on the target ship. It will orbit the ship until a landing pad is free and the ship is within flight quarters speeds.
|-
| Friendly Craft || || None || Guard/Orbit || Craft will move into a holding pattern moving around the target craft. If it has anti-craft/missile armaments, it will be slaved to the craft's PD controller and will attack incoming threats.
|-
| Friendly Craft || Shift || Target of same craft type || Merge flight || Craft will join with the target craft/flight to form a unified flight.
|-
| Enemy Ship || || None || Attack Ship || Craft will move towards the target ship and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm ships when given an attack ship order.
|-
| Enemy Ship || Shift || Craft has standoff illuminator/Jammer/EO module || Designate target for Illumination/Jamming/Scanning || Craft will move into range of the target with its module and enter a holding pattern, attempting to keep the target jammed/illuminated/scanned.
|-
| Enemy Craft || || None || Attack Craft || Craft will move toward the target craft/flight and attempt to attack it with appropriate weapons. Behaviour is dependent on the craft's set stance toggles. Craft will automatically deauthorise weapons that cannot harm craft when given an attack craft order.
|}

==== Stance Controls ====
[[File:Craft Stance Controls.png|thumb|alt=A screenshot of the in-game craft stance control board.|The craft stance controls]]
Spacecraft behaviour is controlled by toggling behaviors in the craft stance control board, similarly to ship postures. Spacecraft launch with the default stances shown on the right. The stances are:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ HBURN (Engine Hard Burn)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| OFF || Craft will fly at their cruise speed, using the regular amount of fuel.
|-
| ON || Craft will fly at their hard-burn speed, (usually 1.5x cruise speed) and increased fuel consumption (XXXX%)
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ FORM (Formation Type)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| WEDGE || Craft flights will fly in a wedge-shaped pattern, pointing in the direction of travel.
|-
| LINE || Craft flights will fly in a line-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| CROSS || Craft flights will fly in a cross-shaped pattern, perpendicular to the direction of travel.
|-
| ECHE || Craft flights will fly in an echelon (diagonal line) shaped pattern.
|}
Craft not in formation will speed up faster than their top speed in attempt to form up; this includes when swapping formation.

{| class="wikitable"
|+ MNVR (Maneuvering posture)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| DIRECT || Craft will fly straight towards their destination, and remain still when loitering.
|-
| JUKE || Craft will constantly make small directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|-
| EVADE || Craft will constantly make large directional changes as they fly or loiter.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ STNCE (Stance)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| PSV || Craft will follow orders normally, unless dogfighting AI is triggered due to an enemy craft.
|-
| AGRSV || Craft will receive an attack order on craft and missiles in close proximity.
|-
| EVASV || Craft will run away from nearby enemy craft.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ WRTB (Return To Base, by Weapon Status)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| SKOSH || Craft will automatically return to base once all missiles in the flight are expended.
|-
| WINCH || Craft will automatically return to base once all ammo, including guns, in the flight is expended.
|-
| NEVER || Craft will not automatically return to base.
|}
{| class="wikitable"
|+ COHER (Combat Coherence)
|-
! State !! Behaviour
|-
| AUTO || Craft will attack multiple different targets if assigned to attack a craft/missile but will attack the selected target if ordered to attack a ship.
|-

* The following rules about craft behavior applies for all craft launched with missiles; craft launched only with guns will follow old behavior (i.e. always closing to the range of the shortest range weapon, which is the gun).
* Craft ordered to attack other craft will now loiter near their missiles' maximum range, or the range they were at when ordered to attack, and fire missiles at the enemy group.
* Craft will not automatically close with the enemy group to use guns, even when out of missiles.
* Craft will only dogfight with guns if the enemy has approached to within gun range, or they were already in gun range when the attack order was issued.

==== Launching Craft ====
=== Craft Stats ===
(Size, HP, Threat Size, etc.) 
Tanto/Pike/Barracuda each achieve cruise and Hburn speed 1 m/s faster than their stat screen indicates. The 33% top speed penalty brings them to their old speeds, the 17% top speed penalty is generated when a fighter's loadout is 1.0 weight, such as when equipping jam pods and no other weight.
