A massive hub located in the center of the map the '''''Mega Base''''' supports a variety of functions.
= Description =
The '''Mega Base''' is a super-sized [[Starbase]] added in Galaxy Beta with 100k Shield, 30k Hull, and 75% Damage Resistance. It is where players spawn upon entering a server or when their own bases are destroyed, go to build ships, access their [[Warehouse]], and buy or sell materials at a steady price. The Mega Base is unarmed and neutral to all player factions. If it is somehow destroyed (e.g. [[Aliens]]), the server will shut down.

Mega Base follows similar docking rules to [[Factions|Faction]] Starbases, allowing [[:Category:Miner|Miner]] or [[:Category:Freighter|Freighter]] ships to become invulnerable while safely docked, though this invincibility wears off when the respective ship becomes undocked or engages in combat. Ships of any class cannot be spawned at the Mega Base except for ships under [[:Category:Battlecruiser|battlecruiser]], and although non economy-related ships may still dock, they do not benefit from any sort of invincibility.
<h1>Description</h1>
The '''Mega Base''' is a super-sized [[Starbase]] that was added in Galaxy Beta and is located in the center of the map. It is where players spawn upon entering a server or when their own bases are destroyed, go to build ships, access their [[Warehouse]], and buy or sell materials at a steady price. The '''Mega Base''' used to be entirely invulnerable and had an inordinate "1e22" (10 sextillion) health. However, as of version .73f, the '''Mega Base''' has 75% [[Damage Resistance]] and 50,000 [[shields|shield]] and [[hull]] health. The '''Mega Base''' is unarmed and neutral to all player factions. If it is somehow destroyed (e.g. [[Aliens]]), the server will shut down.  


The Mega Base follows similar docking rules to [[Factions|Faction]] [[Starbase]]s, allowing [[:Category:Miner|Miner]] or [[:Category:Freighter|Freighter]]-class ships to become invulnerable while safely docked, though this invincibility wears off when the respective ship becomes undocked or engages in combat. Ships of any class cannot be spawned at the '''Mega Base''' except for ships under battlecruisers''',''' and although non economy-related ships may still dock, they do not benefit from any sort of invincibility.
Mega Base's [[Ores and Materials|ore]] storage, [[credits]] and prices are linked across all servers, even [[Galaxy Private Servers|private servers]]. Mega Base Credits fluctuates between positive and negative meaning in times of debt any Ores/Materials cannot be sold resulting with "Base does not have enough credits to buy this." and combat rewards are not paid fully due to "insufficient funds".


The '''Mega Base's''' ore storage, credits and prices are linked across all servers, even private servers. This also means that the [[credits]] at the '''Mega Base''' often fluctuate between positive and negative totals; during times of debt, players cannot sell any items from their warehouse to the base and are alerted with the message "Base does not have enough credits to buy this."

'''Mega Base''' has a total of 5 terminals (A, B, C, D, and E), A total of 18 docking ports (3 docks in terminals A-D and 6 in  E), and in each terminal a second floor: '''LIBRARY''', '''SALES FLOOR''', '''UNE SUPPLY DEPOT''', and '''AUDITORIUM''' respectfully (Terminal E does not have a second floor rather it has the "core" of Mega Base). At the center of each terminal is a pad that teleports players to the main hub.
<h1>Interior</h1>
The '''Mega Base''' has a total of 16 terminals and 5 "sub-terminals". Each sub-terminal has either 3 (if on the main floor) or 4 (if on the lower terminal E) docking terminals in it. In the center of each of these is a pad that teleports players to the main hub. On top of terminals A-D are rooms labeled on blue signs.


In the center of the '''Mega Base''' is a room known as the hub, which is the location of the [[Galaxy VIP Lounge]], a glassy building with a sign saying "VIP Lounge". In the center of the hub is a pillar with some teleporters which all take players to the "sub-terminals". One, however, leads to an upper observatory. The pillar itself contains 4 screens which all have some sort of message on them.
The main dome of the Mega Base is decorated with flora, "beaches", and pillars designed similarly to tree trunks without leaves or branches. It also houses the [[Galaxy VIP Lounge|VIP Lounge]] between terminals A and B a glassy 2 story building with a "VIP" sign above the second floor door, between terminals A and D sits the alien embassy at the bottom floor with no stairway or sidewalk leading to it, and at the very center on a floating island lies the community boards, teleporters to each terminal, a physical icon set in stone, signs floating above each terminals catwalk, and a sidewalk around the perimeter. A teleporter behind the physical icon labeled observatory teleports the player to a small glass room floating above mega where it overlooks all of mega and the surrounding space. A holographic tree sits on top of a pile of stones below the floating island. The ceiling consists of a semi transparent glass covered in recognizable constellations.  


Above the [[Galaxy VIP Lounge]] is the Admin Lounge. It contains images of all the [[Galaxy Staff|Admins]] doing a pose and has some chairs and tables. Players can get there by using the ladder to the right of the Lounge.
There is a large sign that cycle through different "ads". Players may use robux to purchase their own ad slot to display any roblox group/place they choose (within the limits of roblox filters). Ads may be displayed on rotation for 1 day (50 robux), 3 days (100 robux), or 7 days (200 robux).

There are also two large signs that cycle through four different "ads". Players may use robux to purchase their own ad slot to display any roblox group/place they choose (within the limits of roblox filters). Ads may be displayed on rotation for 1 day (50 robux), 3 days (100 robux), or 7 days (200 robux). These were formerly used only by game staff or developers to launch their own game-related messages or ads, which included ones for the Galaxy Group, Case Clicker, Sean's Empire, and Xeiron Industries. The Case Clicker ad read "Come play the best Sci-Fi game around!". This was probably based on [[rcouret]] complaining that Case Clicker is categorized as a Sci-Fi game.

'''SAD-OS''' is an NPC character located next to the [[Quests|Smith]] NPC in the '''Mega Base'''. It appears to be an unusable red teleporter on top of a crudely-made potato. Upon interacting with it, it will speak:

On top of the fact that this is a very blatant reference to the character PotatOS from [[wikipedia:Portal_2|Portal 2]], there is nothing more to add.

As is commonly known, if you warp perfectly, you can enter '''Mega Base'''. It takes some practice, but it gets pretty easy over time. But, two players named [[User:FRJRyanYT|FRJRyanYT]] and '''Parzi3l''' have found a new way to get inside. Where the terminals connect to the Mega Base, there is a small, rhombus-shaped, hole that is just big enough to fit, maybe 3 [[Wasp|Wasps]] going through at once. All testing to enter using '''Frigates''' has shown us that most '''Frigates''' are too big to enter using our area, but to be honest, we only tested two Frigates. Photos of the entrance will be shown below.
