Hangar Module FAQs

The Hangar Module is currently a game mode found in Star Citizen's Alpha Universe that provides you with a private area to view your fleet and display your hangar flair.

What do I need to access the Hangar Module?

To access the Hangar Module, you must have a Roberts Space Industries (RSI) account and a pledge package which includes a ship, a digital download of Star Citizen, and a hangar.

If I only have a stand-alone ship, will I be able to access the Hangar?

Access to the Hangar requires a game package that includes Star Citizen Digital Download. If you've only pledged for a stand-alone ship or stand-alone Squadron 42 pledge, and not a package with game access, you will not be eligible to access the Hangar.

What is the minimal package necessary to access a Hangar?

At this time, there are multiple starter game packages available and we expect to add more in the future to give our players a wide variety of starting options. You can purchase any of the game packages through the RSI Pledge Store.

Where can I find my Hangar?

Players can access the hangar module from the Main Menu. The type of ship in your game package and standalone ship pledges determine the tiers of hangar available to players. Larger ships tend to have larger hangars. Currently, you will have access to the highest tier hangar included in your pledges and all hangars below that tier.

To access a Hangar, select Universe from the Main Menu, then select a hangar from your available hangar list and click  Visit Hangar. 

How do I spawn a ship?

Moving around your Hangar, you'll see small blue nodes in certain places on the ground.  Each dot has designated size that informing you of what size ship you can summon at that location. Click the node to bring up your mobiGlas and select a ship from your inventory.

Upon selecting a ship, move aside to allow your ship room to load in.

What types of Hangars are available? 

Hangars come in four tiers:

• Self-Land ( The most basic hangar) 
• Aeroview 
• Revel & York 
• VFG Industrial Hangar (built into an Asteroid ) 

Will I be able to upgrade my hangar to a higher tier?

There is not currently a way to gain access to a specific hangar type or size.  However, if you pledge for a standalone ship that will require a larger hangar, you will be upgraded to that tier of hangar to support that ship size. 

Can friends visit my hangar?

Currently, there is no multiplayer access to the hangar module. Only you can access your hangar and configure ships and flair in it.

How many ships can I store in my hangar?

Each hangar has a limit to how many ships it can house at one time. Certain hangars also have certain limits to how large of ships they can house. The following list shows: the slot size of ships (x how many can be placed).

Self-Land: 

• Size 1-2 ships (x 3) 
• Size 1-2 ship (x 1) + Size 3(x 1) w 
• Size 3 ships (x 2)  
• Size 4 ship (x 1)  

Aeroview:

• Size 1 - 2 ships (x 3) 
• Size 1 - 2 ships (x 1) + Size 3 (x 1)  
• Size 3 ships (x 2) 
• Size 4 ship (x 1) 

Revel & York:

• Size 1 - 2 ships (x 6)

• Size 4 ships (x 2)  
• Size 5 -6 ship (x 1) 

VFG Industrial:

• Size 1 (x 4)  vehicle pads 
• Size 1 - 3 ship (x 1)

If we reclaim or gift certain ships, do we lose that hangar?

If you reclaim or gift a ship package containing a hangar, you may lose access to that tier of hangar. However, if you have pledged for a standalone hangar upgrade from the RSI store in the past, you will have access to that tier of hangar regardless of which ships you own, or changes in the game. 

As mentioned above, these specific hangar upgrade options are no longer available on the pledge store.

Where will my hangar be located in the ‘verse?

When the full version of Star Citizen releases, your hangar will be physically located at a particular starting location of your choice. Currently, hangars exist in a private instance, only accessible to you.
