This page is my rough draft for a shuttle building wiki
Guide to Shuttle Building
Custom shuttles give you the ability to create custom ships that can navigate across z-levels very easily and conveniently. These can take lots of time and effort to build, so be prepared to start on one of these bad boys.
How they function
Custom shuttles function quite differently than normal generated shuttles, but a big difference is that they can be built at anytime, rather than needing them spawned.
