====== SPACE OBJECTS ======

Each space object in [[About | FrontierSpace ]] represents one  'hull' within the simulation.  Multiple hulls can be attached  together ('linked').  A single linked set of hulls is the basic object on which the simulation operates.

Each hull has a given number of mount points, each of which may contain a space component.  Any hull can have any number of space devices associated with it, as well.  Additionally, each hull should have an associated space zone object.

A space object is simply a normal [[:object]] of type '[[:thing]]' with the [[Space_Object]] flag set and the following attributes:

^ Attribute              ^ Description                                                                                     ^
