Tethering allows players with permission to dock in the citadel to remain in space without being targetable, essentially making them invulnerable. While tethered the structure will also repair any damaged modules fitted to your ship and drones currently in your drone bay. While you can move around as long as you stay close to the structure, several actions break the tether as well as stopping you from tethering to begin with.

Engineering Complexes are a new type of structure introduced during the Ascension expansion (Nov 2016). These structures, and the service modules that came with them, are intended to replace research and manufacturing functionality currently available in Outposts and Starbases.

Size variants

There are currently three different sizes of Engineering Complexes; the medium Raitaru, the large Azbel and the extra-large Sotiyo.

Anchoring an Engineering Complex

Main article: Anchoring structures

In order to anchor an Engineering Complex you'll need a ship with an appropriately sized cargo hold or fleet hangar, the right roles and a suitable spot to anchor your structure. After that the whole building process, while automatic, takes 24 hours.

Tethering

Main article: Tethering

Tethering allows players with permission to dock in the citadel to remain in space without being targetable, essentially making them invulnerable. While tethered the structure will also repair any damaged modules fitted to your ship and drones currently in your drone bay. While you can move around as long as you stay close to the structure, several actions break the tether as well as stopping you from tethering to begin with.

While tethered, you'll see this icon on top of your HUD.
You'll also see a faint cyan-coloured effect coming from the citadel, while you're tethered.
Damage will be repaired while tethered, indicated by a repair icon over your HUD and a very noticeable translucent effect on you entire ship.
