Planetary Structures
Structures are the things that make the Darkspace Game go. Without the Shipyard, the only ships would be Scouts and Frigates. Without the Dome or the Hydroponics Farm, you could never get the population needed to build a Shipyard. Defense Bases defend your planets from invasion.
Structures are built by Engineering ships in orbit around a Planet.
