How can I craft ships?

In the same manner as port lines, ship lines can also be unlocked by the faction founder for faction members to attempt to find ship recipes within. Each ship line has a specific purpose, from attack ships with damage increasing equipment to recon ships with extended scanning range. In total there are 30 different ship lines with each ship line containing 5 different marks of ship to discover.

Your faction founder can unlock a new weapon line by building ship research centre and paying to unlock a line.

To begin, deposit your ship parts into the hold of a shipwright. Once that is done, you can open the crafting window and select the option for "craft ship", this will open a recipe window, where you can place parts from the shipwright hold into a recipe in an attempt to find a viable outcome. A recipe consists of four different parts, and pressing the add button next to any part will add it to the recipe. Once the recipe as 4 parts, the "craft" button will become active and pressing this will tell you the outcome.

If the outcome is successful, you will have discovered a new ship for your faction which will be sold at all faction shipwrights. In all cases the ship parts are consumed.
