Языки
Этой странице требуется переводOverview
Все сотрудники должны пройти обязательный уровень владения языком Galactic Common, чтобы они могли общаться с другими членами экипажа на минимальном уровне, как того требуют корпоративные стандарты найма. Тем не менее, использование других языков может быть использовано при частном общение между членами экипажа.
Если другой язык не указан или не установлен по умолчанию, все, что говорит персонаж, будет в Galactic Common. Предвидится, что все члены экипажа знают Galactic Common, поскольку это стандартный язык общения на борту станции. Помимо Галактического Общего, все члены экипажа также будут знать язык своего рода. Вся команда также может выбрать язык по своему выбору, чтобы свободно владеть им.
Во время игры игроки могут видеть, какие языки знают их персонажи, используя действие "Check-Known-Languages". Чтобы говорить на языке, который не является общим для Галактики, персонаж должен начинать свое сообщение с : ( # или . тоже работают) и букву или цифру, которые соответствуют их языку, как если бы они говорили по радио департамента. Например, чтобы говорить на Sol Common, нужно ввести :1, затем сообщение. Чтобы говорить по медицинскому каналу в Sol Common, нужно ввести :m :1, затем сообщение.
Как и ожидалось, персонаж, не знающий языка, не сможет говорить на нем или понимать его.

Tradeband say :2
Better described as universal haggling, Tradeband is a carefully crafted manner of speaking using a myriad of words from many alien languages, as well as a number of human ones. This amalgam of terms from vastly different origins results in a straight forward conversational style using universal words and talking points with clear, practices enunciation to negotiate and conclude business as soon as possible. To someone unfamiliar with Tradeband, a speaker may seem as if they are stating a series of random points with no context. Commonly spoken among shipping crews, colonists, businessmen, and long term spacers.
Can be spoken by cyborgs/AIs
Gutter say :3
Gutter is a language commonly marked as another trade language prevalent among most interspecies trade lanes and is popular among humans living further away from their species influence. Being used among traders and smugglers alike, the language is as popular among normal society as it is among criminal and paramilitary groups; making it a language often associated with behind the counter dealings. Due to how easy it is to understand, however, many aliens and humans have learned it as a second or third language for the sole purpose of communicating with each other easier.

Alien Languages
These languages are the the native language of their respective species. While most can be spoken by a person of another species (Usually with great difficulty), they're exclusive to their respective species in gameplay with the exception of station-born Diona who will be able to speak the languages of people the Diona stole blood from as a nymph (Needs testing) and Cyborgs/AIs.
Human - Sol Common say :1
A bastardized hybrid of informal English and elements of Mandarin Chinese; the common language of the Sol system
Can be spoken by cyborgs/AIs
Tajaran - Siik'tajr say :j
One of the many languages spoken by the tajaran of Ahdomai, Siik'tajr is a lowbrow tongue considered to be the most commonly encountered from this species. This language, when spoken by a tajaran, can be described as a series of various feline growls in combination with movement of various body parts, such as the tail. Non-tajaran speakers may have difficulty fully replicating this speech and may come off as stilted speech with an accent.
Unathi - Sintha'unathi say :o
Sintha'unathi is a language with many different accents and dialects, and Unathi can almost immediately tell where the other hailed from due to their disparate, clustered and widespread inhabitation of Moghes. Though they all do speak the same language. Due to the structure of an unathi's maw, similar to an alligator's, non-unathi speakers will find great difficulty in learning this language without heavy practice.
Skrell - Skrellian say :k
The Skrell language can be best described as a series of hums, warbles, or croaks that linguists have difficulty deciphering. Much of this difficulty is attributed to the range of emotion and tense a skrell is able to convey compared to most human languages. Due to the dissimilar aspects of the two languages, the vocal structure of a skrell is intrinsically different than that of a human, and as such, when learning a language such as human English, they typically adopt the accent of their tutor. Skrell have trouble expressing emotion through simple words and body language when speaking a human language such as English due to its limitations, but are naturally more capable than a human in the arts if they were to sing or play an instrument due to their use of tone when speaking their native language. However, how different emotions are expressed between different species often differ.
Slime People - Bubblish say :f
Bubblish is spoken by a certain combination of popping noises, easily understood by other slimes.
Vox - Vox-pidgin say :v
The common tongue of the various Vox ships making up the Shoal. It sounds like chaotic shrieking to everyone else.
Kidan - Chittin say :4
Their native language is a series of clicks, buzzes, head, antennae movements, and pheromones, however they can mimic human speech (barely) using clicks and buzzes drawn out into words, with antenna use for emphasis and indicating emotion, this causes Human speech to appear rather blunted to them, due to the lack of olfactory and movement use. Due to them being mostly unable to use tone, their speech appears almost perpetually friendly, dispite what they may mean to say. -- this causes Z, and V noises to be slightly elongated, as well as a general buzzy tone. S sounds are difficult to seperate from Z noises, as well as C noises.The Kidan written language consists of woven strands of fabric of various colors, which come together to form words.
Diona - Rootspeak say :q
A creaking, subvocal language spoken instinctively by the Dionae. Due to the unique makeup of the average Diona, a phrase of Rootspeak can be a combination of anywhere from one to twelve individual voices and notes.
