== Anchoring timer (a.k.a. time to build) ==

~~With that complete your citadel~~ will ~~begin a~~ '''~~24 hour anchor timer~~''' ~~that it~~ is ~~invulnerable throughout with~~ the ~~citadel slowly being constructed~~, ~~while anchoring~~ the ~~citadel will appear on~~ the ~~overview~~ and ~~directional scan~~.

After Deployment, anchoring will not start until an initial '''15-minute vulnerability''' has passed. Once the Anchoring is in progress, the structure cannot be attacked until the anchoring completes (usually 24 hours), at which point another '''15-minute vulnerability''' timer must pass before the structure’s normal vulnerability schedule activates. As the structure is not fully repaired at this point, it cannot be fitted yet and must be defended by other means until this vulnerability window completes.

~~Once anchoring completes~~ the structure ~~will enter~~ a ~~15 minute~~ repair ~~window where the citadel has no shields or armour~~. ~~During this period the citadel is [[Vulnerability States#Vulnerability States|vulnerable]]~~ and can be destroyed~~. Until this initial repair window finishes it is not possible to fit any modules~~ or ~~rigs to the structure. Once completed the citadel will now be fully operational and begin to follow the vulnerability times that have been set~~ at ~~the time of deployment~~.

If the structure is attacked during any of these timers, a normal repair timer will start, and standard vulnerability mechanics occur. Structures that come under attack before their anchoring process starts will not have any reinforcement cycles and can be destroyed within a single attack, as no armour or shields are present at this stage.
