Station Trading

Station trading, buying and selling, resolves the instant you confirm it, no tick wait, and hauling ore from more dangerous space pays more at the counter.

Buy low, haul far, sell high; the market never waits on a tick.

The Instant Market

Dock at any station and the market opens immediately. Sell your hold at the mineral's going price, buy what you need, and walk away with the difference; every transaction settles the moment you confirm it, with nothing carried over to the next tick. The same danger-tier premium that rewards a deeper extraction run pays out again here.

More Than a Counter

Stations do more than buy and sell ore; they stock ships for sale and post the contract boards that fund your next hull. A single dock can be the start of a new mining run, a new escort, or a new job entirely.

By the Numbers

  • Settlement time — Instant
  • Value per danger tier — x2
Buying and selling at a station resolves the instant you confirm it. No tick to wait out; credits and cargo update immediately.
