Ship structural beam
A structural beam around which a starship can be constructed. Includes all the necessary conduits and transit pipes for communications, power, and materials transport.

The ship structural beam is a ship part that connects all other parts, transmits power, and hosts the ship cryptosleep caskets.
Acquisition
Ship structural beams can be constructed once the Starflight basics research project has been completed. Each beam requires 200 Steel, 40 Plasteel, 3 Components, 1 Advanced components, 8,000 ticks (2.22 mins) of work, and a Construction skill of 5.
It cannot be built under a roof, that is at least 5 out of the 12 squares it occupies must be uncovered. However, a roof can be constructed afterwards.
Summary
Ship structural beams allow the building of ship cryptosleep caskets. Each beam can support up to 8 casksets. They can also connect other ship parts together (though are not required to do so).
Analysis
In order to conserve resources:
- Connect as much of the ship as possible to the ship reactor (or another part of the ship). Unless terrain is a restriction, there is no need to place beams for anything else.
- Keep as much open space for ship cryptosleep caskets. Only 1 tile needs to be connected to the rest of the ship; using both tiles of the "long" side wastes a casket spot.
Version history
- Beta 19/1.0 Update - Reduced all costs to build the ship components by 30%
