Editing Spaceport (section)

== Function ==
'''Spaceports''' (previously known as '''Commercial Spaceports''' in [[:Category:VB6|VB6]]
) are [[installations]] that decrease the load times of ships in orbit. This affects anything being loaded into [[Cargo Hold]]s, [[Cryogenic Transport]] bays, and [[Troop Transport Bay]]s. 

In [[CSharp|C#]], the loading speed benefits of a spaceport can also be replicated with the cheaper [[Cargo Shuttle Station]]. However, a spaceport also functions as a [[Refuelling Station]] and an [[Ordnance Transfer Station]] as well, at a lower combined cost than the three (3000 vs 3600). Since fuel and ordnance stations transfer their loads instantly, a colony does not need more than one spaceport, and cargo shuttle stations are preferred after the first spaceport. 

 Formula: Adjusted Load Time = Load Time / (Spaceport Level + Cargo Shuttle Station Level + 1)
