Each system in Sov Null can potentially have a '''sovereignty hub''' (Sov Hub) anchored in it that will confer ownership of the system to the alliance that anchored the hub. The Sov Hub allows the owners to upgrade the system and erect special structures.  


Sov Hubs can be destroyed by their owner. Any director of their owner corporation can warp to them, right click the sovereignty hub, and select "Self-Destruct". If it is not canceled, it will explode and disappear, allowing players to place a new sovereignty hub. Any director of the owner corporation can warp to them to cancel Self-Destruct by right-clicking it and selecting "Abort self-destruct sequence".

==== Military Upgrades ====
==== Military Upgrades ====
These upgrades confer bonuses to the presence of [[Cosmic Anomalies|combat-oriented sites]] as well as the chance of [[wormholes]] appearing within the system. They rely on the Military Development Index, which can be increased by destroying NPC ships within the system. The Military Development Index will degrade if no NPCs are being destroyed. Alliance members are advised that it will continue to degrade over downtime and thus they should ensure they have destroyed enough pirate NPCs to cover any degradation when aiming to reach the next index level.
These upgrades confer bonuses to the presence of combat sites appearing within the system. They rely on the security status of the system with lower security systems providing more combat sites and higher security systems providing fewer sites. When a site is completed, it will respawn after a set amount of time. There are three levels of each upgrade with high-level types providing both more sites and faster site respawn times at the cost of more power and workforce.  


Available Upgrades:  
Available Upgrades:  
* Pirate Detection Array 1 - 5: This upgrade increases the number of active combat sites in the system (specifically, each level creates at least four additional sites). The term "active" means that if one site is completed, a replacement spawns immediately. Note that this is affected by the ''truesec'' level of the system, so a -0.1 system will still never have Sanctums. However, the higher-level upgrades will tend to produce higher-level sites within the constraints of truesec.
* Major Threat Detection Array; This upgrade causes more difficult combat sites such as hubs, havens, and sanctums to spawn along with their variants.  
* Entrapment Array 1 - 5: This upgrade increases the chances of DED complexes spawning in the system. (Along with the Military Index requirement, the Entrapment Array I also requires a Pirate Detection Array III installed.) {{bug|This is thought to not work, or at least provide a statistical increase so small as to not be measurable}}
* Minor Threat Detection Array; This upgrade causes sites that are usually only found in hisec or lowsec to spawn such as refuges, dens, and rally points along with their variants.
* Quantum Flux Generator 1 - 5: This upgrade increases the chance of a wormhole being present in the upgraded solar system. {{bug|This is thought to not work, or at least provide a statistical increase so small as to not be measurable}}


== Equinox Structure updates ==
One major and one minor upgrade can be online at the same time. System security statuses are split into ranges, with all systems in a given range providing the same number of sites.


With the advent of Equinox[https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/sovereignty-updates-transition-and-upgrades], systems now have more requirements to be upgrade the space around them.  This is due to go in effect "later this year"[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hyEVRcZhGw] aka later 2024.
These numbers provided by patch notes from CCP[https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/patch-notes-version-22-01].
 
The rework changes the requirements for:
* [[Asteroids_and_ore#Ores_in_null_security_space|Prospecting arrays]] are now spawning selectable ores with a long cool down.  Can fit multiple arrays per system, based on Power/Workforce.
* [[Combat_sites#Anomalies|Combat Anomalies]] are now tunable by what ones sov holders want to spawn, with lower security systems able to spawn more.  Can only fit one major and one minor.
* Several [[Navigation_structures|navigation modules]] are harder to place alongside other modules. These include the Pharolux Cyno Beacons (250 power), Tenebrex Cyno Jammer (500 power), and Ansiblex Jump Bridge (1250 power). All now have an hourly cost as well.
* [[Supercapital Construction Facilities]] are now very difficult to place, requiring 1750 power. These also have an hourly cost.
 
Where these structures can be placed is influenced heavily by three major numbers: Power, Workforce, and Security Bands.
 
=== Power and Workforce ===
Power allows a sov holder to online an upgrade based on the power of the sun.  This number cannot be changed by players (and can still be tuned by CCP as well).  A low power system, like QX-LIJ[https://evemaps.dotlan.net/system/QX-LIJ], with only 650 power, can only online the barest of upgrades, while a high power system can online more.
 
Workforce can be transferred between systems, making it a more malleable number. It uses the new [[Skyhook]] mechanics to transfer between systems.  When these structures are reffed, it can cause interruption in structures in the system they are transferring to.
 
Some of these structures consume new items called [[Superionic Ice]] mined from Ice planets, and [[Magmatic Gas]], mined from Lava planets.  This mining system uses the Skyhook system as well.
 
The most recent list of values for this new content are below, based on the latest CCP News article[https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/sovereignty-updates-transition-and-upgrades].  Later patch notes tweaked these values[https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/patch-notes-version-22-01?utm_source=launcher&origin=launcher&utm_content=en#h2-1]

==== Major Threat Detection Arrays ====
 
=== Security bands ===
 
[[Security status]] (aka True sec) create security bands split by increments.  The better bands will spawn greater numbers of rats in lower security systems naturally.  The new Major and Minor Threat Detection systems with levels 1 through 3 will greatly increase the numbers of ratting anomalies based on the low sec status in the systems.  This can be important for maintaining ADMs and having players in space.  Only one major and one minor can be per system.  The smallest systems of 650 power can only support one major 1, or one minor 1 or 2, for instance.  But no other upgrades can be used effectively there.
 
These numbers provided by patch notes from CCP[https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/patch-notes-version-22-01].
==== Major Prospecting Arrays ====
These are for all player-owned NPC Null, except for Rogue Drone regions.

== Power, Workforce, and Reagents ==
With the advent of Equinox[https://www.eveonline.com/news/view/sovereignty-updates-transition-and-upgrades], systems now have more requirements to upgrade the space around them. These requirements can be physical items such as Reagents or in-system effects such as power and workforce.
Workforce comes from temperate, barren, and oceanic planets. Workforce is "harvested" by orbital skyhooks and can be "moved" from system to system provided that the same alliance owns all the systems between the origin and destination.
Power comes from suns and plasma, storm, and gas planets. The power that the sun in-system provides is determined by the sun type. Power from planets can only be harvested by skyhooks.
Reagents are harvested from planets automatically by skyhooks. Superionic ice comes from ice planets and magmatic gas comes from lava planets.
=== System Upgrades ===
Power and workforce allow a sov holder to online upgrades. A low power system, like QX-LIJ[https://evemaps.dotlan.net/system/QX-LIJ], with only 650 power, can only online the barest of upgrades, while a high power system can online more. Power can not change; once all eligible planets have skyhooks, the power of the system is maxed.
Workforce can be transferred between systems, making it a more malleable number. It uses the new [[Skyhook]] mechanics to transfer between systems.  When these structures are reffed, it can cause interruption in structures in the system they are transferring to.
Some upgrades require the superionic ice and magmatic gas from planets to be inserted into the sov hub to be online and stay online.

To capture or disable a structure, attackers must first use an entosis link on the structure during its [[#Vulnerability Window|Vulnerability window]]. Once the link has completed its first cycle, the capture process begins and the alliance owning the structure is notified of the attack. Once the entosis link has been active and uncontested for a certain amount of time, the structure enters reinforce mode and a reinforce timer begins. The duration of this timer depends on the type of structure attacked and the Activity Defense Multiplier (ADM) of the system. These timers are all affected by [[Time Dilation]].
