Factions

Factions are a vital part of the game. Most of the parts you can come across are made according to faction orders and designs. Each faction controls one sector of the galaxy:
 * United Research Alliance always has the most high tech and light modules, but alas they aren't very durable. Controls core worlds.
 * Industrial Conglomerate has everything designed for sheer strength, tensile strength too. Controls industrial sector.
 * Junkyard Finally if you're low on cash you may find some old pre-warp modules in questionable conditions but the price is unparalleled. Controls outer rim.

There are a few other factions planned to be added ranging from Twinblade Riders, the petrolheads of space, to unknown parts of alien origin.
