Station Interface

The station interface offers a variety of menus for managing your cargo. The Buy menu will be of primary interest for pilots who need to configure their ship and get out into combat quickly. The Cargo menu is convenient for traders or scavengers, as you can unload and sell cargo directly from your ship's cargo hold. The Sell menu will let you sell anything in the station's cargo hold, including your ship, provided the ship's cargo hold is empty and no addons are attached. The Character Info screen contains, among other things, a listing of all the cargo and equipment you have stored in stations all over the galaxy.

Detailed information on some of these menus follows.

Buy Menu

Items that are for sale at a station can be viewed on this menu. Ship addons (for which you have sufficient standing and license levels) are listed first, with trade goods following. Any addons that are purchased are automatically fitted to your ship, assuming an appropriate port is available.

For more information, visit the trading section of this manual.

Cargo Menu

Selling cargo is very easy. Select the "Cargo" tab from the top of the menu to see what is currently in your ship and station cargo holds. "Ship Cargo" can be unloaded to your station inventory, or sold all at once. "Unloaded Cargo" can either be sold to the station or loaded onto your ship. Clicking any of the cargo will also display its description on the lower-right part of the panel.
