== Launchpad ==

An alternative to using your Planetary Command Center (PCC) as a launching point. Launchpads have more storage than PCCs and are less expensive for moving goods to orbit (they also beat Storage Facilities in storage as of May 8th - expect changes). They connect with a Cargo Link / Customs Office in orbit around the planet, which is essentially a hangar with private slots for all users. This is the only way to move material down to the planet surface. There will only ever be a single orbital point, so it could make for a dangerous ambush spot. You can shift items to and from orbit via your launchpad controls, even from great range, but must be present in orbit to transfer items to and from your ship.
