Transport in the Star Citizen universe plays a crucial role in the interstellar economy and in gameplay. Spaceships are not only used for simple passenger transport, but also for cargo transport, salvage missions, and much more. Players have the opportunity to use different ships, from small and agile transporters to large freighters.
The trade routes and transport missions offer the opportunity to transport resources between planets and stations, creating a dynamic economic system. Choosing the right type of ship and planning routes are crucial to make a profit while also facing challenges of space, such as pirate attacks.
Transport in Star Citizen is not limited to just cargo. Passenger transport missions also allow players to transport people from one place to another, with passenger comfort and safety playing a role. The variety of transport options available gives players the freedom to shape their own career as a spacefarer and define their role in the universe.
