| + | Managing your modules may seem like an obvious topic but it not something that should be ignored. Having your modules in the correct location can save you from accidentally activating important modules at the wrong time. Grouping your weapons can assure that you're doing the most damage possible at any given time. Managing your Auto Repeat/Auto Reload can help you not waste ammo or items when your supply is limited. Overloading can push your ships limit to the maximum. Off-lining modules can allow you to fit more on your ship than originally possible. | ||

| + | ====Relocating==== | ||
| + | Modules can easily be swapped to a variety of different locations, 24 to be exact. To do this, click and hold your mouse button on the module you wish to move and drag it to the desired location. | ||

| - | **[[training:game_mechanics:weapon_grouping]]** allows you to group weapons, so you can fire them all at once and at the same target. You should pretty much always do this as long as you're sure you'll only be shooting at one target and using only one type of ammo. If you are going to be shooting at multiple targets or using multiple ammo types, you may want to make multiple weapon groups. | + | **[[training:game_mechanics:weapon_grouping]]** allows you to group weapons, so you can fire them all at once and at the same target.

| Thermodynamics, also called Heat, **[[training:game_mechanics:overheating|Overheating]]** or Overloading, is a game mechanic whereby many active modules can be overloaded beyond their normal capacity, providing greater functionality for a short duration at the cost of incremental damage to your modules. | Thermodynamics, also called Heat, **[[training:game_mechanics:overheating|Overheating]]** or Overloading, is a game mechanic whereby many active modules can be overloaded beyond their normal capacity, providing greater functionality for a short duration at the cost of incremental damage to your modules. | ||
