Orbital Supply Stations - What do they do?

[jeputa]

I just captured MUL/INS(?) TULON in ACM mode last night and tractored the remaining enemy ships to my newly acquired station . However, the system is still bringing up a red CAS warning and I believe that it has to do with that orbiting supply station, which I tried attacking till I was blue in the face . How can I put it under TER/MIL control or destroy it to get rid of the warning? Also, what are the supply stations and how are they used in the game since they are everywhere ? Finally, TER/MIL TULON destroyed its former ODS, so how can it be replaced? Thanks in advance for any assistance provided...

Yep, its the supply station. ALL supply stations are for the treatment and rearming of Marines. Orbital supply stations are obviously for SF Marines. If you are in FP mode you can use them... much the same way you use a DJP. If there is a supply station, you can use it, regardless if its hostile or not. I think Orbital supply stations are invulnerable, but when you use an OTS missle on a MBase, they disappear (along with the rest of the base LOL) otherwise, they are invulnerable as well.

As for ODSs, I am not sure. I always destroy the hostile ones and have not been replaced so I think if they are hostile, they will die hostile

If you have not read the manual yet in its entirety, it will help a TON. So, as they say, RTFM

I have read the manual, but thought that it might be for ships or something in space. Thanks for the heads up. Say, how do you get into the Nightstar in Obsida? When I went looking for that artifact in that area and came across that ship, I knew it was there, but I couldn't find a way in and I was there by myself with just a shuttle...

ODS systems, like stations, will rebuild after a certain amount of time.

Supply Stations don't trigger the CAS

Supply Stations cannot be destroyed

Supply Stations in space are for SF marines, in much the same way that the ones on planets are for other personnel.
