Launchpads have more storage than Command Centers (or even Storage Facilities) in which they can hold up to 10,000m3 of resources and products and are less expensive for exporting goods to orbit. | ||
When the first Launchpad is created on a particular planet a corresponding Customs Office is created in orbit. This orbital structure will connect to '''all''' Launchpads on the planet, regardless of location and owner. The Customs Office essentially provides a private hangar for all users and is the only way to move material down to the planet surface (import). Since there is only ever this single orbital point, it offers tremendous ambush potential. | When the first Launchpad is created on a particular planet a corresponding Customs Office is created in orbit.
