'''Airport terminals''' listen and respond to hail requests on the ''Trade'' [[communication]] channel. Passengers are loaded and unloaded at airport terminals. Spacecraft services are available at airport terminals, such as house keeping and extermination of vermin.


Airport terminals are essential for any [[city]], they establish a trade connection with all other cities in a solar system that also have an airport terminal.
An airport terminal is essential for any colony.


These are usually one of the first buildings constructed on a newly founded [[moonbase]], along with the [[broker]].
==Trade Connection==
An airport terminal forms a [[Trade_Connection|trade connection]] to other airport terminals in the same [[Solar_System|solar system]], this allows all [[building]]s connected to either airport terminal to [[fetch]] [[commodities]] from each other.


They allow a [[city]] to be picked up by a [[spacecraft]]'s [[sensor]] and allow the city to reply to long distant transmissions.
The trade connection even works while the airport terminal is still under construction. This allows for easy off-world colonization while there already is an established [[colony]] or [[city]] in the solar system.


For more information on trading, see the [[City Trade]] page.
For more information, see the [[Trade Connection]] page.

==Warp Signature==
The airport terminal contains a [[Sensor Station|sensor station]] which can be used just like that ones aboard a [[spacecraft]].
{{HaxusNeeded|Needs clarification on signature mechanic since patents were removed}}
An airport terminal will start emitting [[Warp_Signature|warp signature]]s in its [[Solar_System|solar system]] once ???


If an airport terminal detects an enemy [[unit]] on its sensors, it will cause the city to send out a distress [[City Report Guide|city report]].
The strength of the signature is equivalent to one warp drive engage per hour, at the maximum warp factor available to the empire. Warp technology of an empire is based on ???


=Transporter=
For more information, see the [[Warp Signature]] page.
They contain [[Transporter Station|transporter station]]s, allowing you to beam yourself up to recently constructed spacecraft. Or to the city by requesting a transporter beam on the trade channel or a city's private channel. The range of the transporter increases with airport terminal [[TL]].


=Officer=
==Sensor==
The airport terminal is one of the three buildings required for an [[officer]] to spawn. The other two are an [[university]] and a [[Spacecraft Factory|spacecraft factory]].
An airport terminal [[Building_Blueprint|building blueprint]] can contain a [[Sensor_Station|sensor station]].


=System Survey=
==Transporter==
Once a [[city]] has both an airport terminal and an [[observatory]], an automatic [[System Survey|system survey]] is completed of the city's system.
An airport terminal [[Building_Blueprint|building blueprint]] can contain [[transporter]]s. This will add an additional cost of [[Io_Tube|io tube]]s to the required construction materials.


See the [[System Survey]] page for more information.
Using the [[Transporter_Station|transporter console]] it is possible to beam oneself up to any unshielded [[spacecraft]] in range. This is especially useful to get onto newly constructed spacecraft in orbit. The console is however unmanned, so it has to be operated manually. The airport terminal can however automatically handle beam up requests sent to it via the ''trade'' [[communication]] channel or the airport terminal's private channel.
 
=System Emission=
Once a city has an airport terminal, it will start receiving [[System Emission|emission]]s from surrounding systems. The higher the [[TL]] the airport terminal, the farther away emissions can be detected.
 
For more information on emissions, see the [[System Emission]] page.

Airport terminals listen and respond to hail requests on the Trade communication channel. Passengers are loaded and unloaded at airport terminals. Spacecraft services are available at airport terminals, such as house keeping and extermination of vermin.

An airport terminal is essential for any colony.

Trade Connection

An airport terminal forms a trade connection to other airport terminals in the same solar system, this allows all buildings connected to either airport terminal to fetch commodities from each other.

The trade connection even works while the airport terminal is still under construction. This allows for easy off-world colonization while there already is an established colony or city in the solar system.

For more information, see the Trade Connection page.

Warp Signature

This section has details missing or obscure mechanics that need clarification by Haxus.
Description: Needs clarification on signature mechanic since patents were removed
If you know the answer, please edit this page or state it on the talk page!

An airport terminal will start emitting warp signatures in its solar system once ???

The strength of the signature is equivalent to one warp drive engage per hour, at the maximum warp factor available to the empire. Warp technology of an empire is based on ???

For more information, see the Warp Signature page.

Sensor

An airport terminal building blueprint can contain a sensor station.

Transporter

An airport terminal building blueprint can contain transporters. This will add an additional cost of io tubes to the required construction materials.

Using the transporter console it is possible to beam oneself up to any unshielded spacecraft in range. This is especially useful to get onto newly constructed spacecraft in orbit. The console is however unmanned, so it has to be operated manually. The airport terminal can however automatically handle beam up requests sent to it via the trade communication channel or the airport terminal's private channel.
