The ship computer core is a ship part that provides the ship's navigation and control center. Building it requires a persona core, which can only be acquired through trade or as a reward for completing world quest events.
Acquisition
Ship computer cores can be constructed once the Machine persuasion research project has been completed. Each requires 150 Steel, 4 Advanced components, 70 Gold, 1 Persona cores, 16,000 ticks (4.44 mins) of work, and a Construction skill of 8.
It also appears as part of the ship featured in the ship to the stars quest.
