The Outlands are made up of hundreds of connected nodes. Nodes must be powered or activated using Energy Cells before that location can be scanned for connected space lanes. Additionally, a node must be activated before the node's station facilities can be accessed. | |||
== Node Tech Level == | |||
Each node has a tech level. Levels range from None to Advanced. | |||

=== Supergate === | |||
Supergates are extremely powerful space gates that only connect to Nodes with an advanced tech level. Pilots may travel between connected super gates only if they have discovered both nodes. | |||
==== Travel Time ==== | |||
Standard travel time between supergates is 60 minutes. Ship's [[Engine Efficiency Attribute|engine efficiency]] [[mods]] do not affect supergate travel time. | |||
[[Nesellium]], the rare Allegiance-based energy source can be transferred to each node to reduce supergate travel time. One Nesellium reduces travel time to the supergate by 1%. | |||
=== Mod Cache === | |||
Many nodes will randomly have [[Tier III mods|tier III mods]] that can be claimed. Every 10 minutes there is a 25% chance that a node that can potentially store a mod will receive one. | |||
=== Advanced Mod Cache === | |||
There are a limited number of nodes that contain advanced mod caches. These mods are on extremely long cool downs. These are [[Tier IV mods|tier IV mods]]. | |||
