Overview
========

The Nuit Space Station was originally designed by Isis Interstellar and Griff Industries as part of a GalCop project 
intended to find alternatives to the Coriolis and Icosahedron stations. When the project was suddenly cancelled the 
decission was made to finish the production of the prototype and after successful space trials, the Nuit was brought 
online as an opulent, high class spaceport.

Following the unprecedented success of the station, Isis Interstellar has moved to full production status and we are 
extremely proud to offer now these stations for sale. 

Locations
=========

Nuit Space Stations could be found in tech-level 10+ systems with a Dictatorship, a Confederacy, a Democracy 
or a Corporate State government. In rich industrial systems the Nuit is based close to the main station, 
in all other systems on the other side of the planet. 

Credits
=======

Thanks a lot to Killer Wolf for making this station available to the Oolite community.

Killer Wolf (concept, model, original textures)
Griff (shaders)

Remarks
=======

* While 4 safe docking points for oversize freighters are mentioned there is no mechanic to use them, they merely exist
  for optics.
* Beginning with V 1.50 the station is using Vampire Mark II-B fighters as defenders, these combat crafts are added as 
  GalCop police as well.
* With V 1.51 the hull paint of the station is a darker blue, the structures are more visible. 


Dependencies
============

Oolite V 1.88 or higher. Since the entire package is using shaders your graphics card need to be able to manage them.
