Centerpoint Mining Complex

Designed and built by the Weyland-Yutani Corporation, Centerpoint Mining and Refining Complex is a completely automous, high-capacity processing and production facility built to move throughout the universe strip-mining asteroids of all their usable ores, processing those collected ores and ice into useful materials, and producing parts for expansion of colonization into the far reaches of space. Mining is performed by its drone miner fleet comprised of AutoSprite miners that are controlled by the Path Auto Miner script. No mods are used, but DLC is included.

Power is supplied by 4 solar pylons, each with 24 solar panels and controlled via Isy's Solar Alignment script to maximize output. Power is stored in 28 batteries, and 12 small reactors (empty) are provided for future use when uranium is discovered and processed.

Station defenses are provided by 24 gatling turrets and 8 missile turrets.

Ore, ice, and part processing and production are provided by 16 advanced refineries, all upgraded with yield modules, 8 advanced assemblers, all upgraded with speed modules, 24 O2/H2 generators, and 8 oxygen farms. Ore is stored in 3 large cargo containers and 4 small cargo containers, hydrogen gas is stored in 5 large hydrogen tanks, and oxygen gas is stored in 6 oxygen tanks.

Station relocation is accomplished via 112 small hydrogen thrusters and 4 jump drives; the maximum jump distance is 1,151 km for an empty station, and 1,063 km for the as-spawned mass. Flight control seats are provided on Sublevel 3 (the very bottom of the station) and Level 5 (the very top of the station). Centerpoint must be reset to a "station" for the Path Auto Miner script to operate correctly. Detailed instructions are given in-game for building and operating the drone fleet.

Ships visiting Centerpoint may land at either of 2 large landing pads, each with 8 docking connectors, at either of 2 small landing pads, each with 4 docking connectors, or in one of 3 hangar bays, each with 2 docking connectors. A small ship printer bay may be used to produce more AutoSprite miners to increase ore production efficiency, and 12 drone miner docking connectors with conveyor sorters set to "drain all" are provided for docking the drone miner fleet. The drone miners are controlled at the Level 5 operations center via 6 dedicated control stations.

Crew services include full accomodations for 32 crew in 4 separate wings. Medical services includes a medical room with 4 hospital beds and a complete diagnostic suite. Centerpoint also includes a fully appointed briefing room, a crew lounge, and a swimming pool. Cryogenic services are provided on Sublevel 3 via 36 cryo chambers.
