A starship's '''hull''' is the protecting layer between its [[interior]] and [[space]]. As solid [[:Category:Construction material|construction material]], it is used to construct the outer shape and shell of a starship, which will be hit by [[projectile]]s and [[asteroid]]s, whereas [[scaffolding]] does not provide a protective shell. Hull can also be used for dividing the interior and does not block [[cable]]s or [[pipe]]s. Many [[weapon]]s and other [[:Category:Equipment|equipment]] is placed on the hull, penetrating the outer shell of a starship. | A starship's '''hull''' is the protecting layer between its [[interior]] and [[space]].

Hull can be constructed at a [[Shipyard]], just like the remaining construction materials. It can be rotated by pressing ''R'' to change its shape into a right triangle for all four corners. When doing so on the interior of a ship, one should place a square of interior befor placing the hull, to have a solid floor below the corner. Constructing one square of hull costs $300 at any shipyard. | Hull can be constructed at a [[Shipyard]], just like the remaining construction materials.
