How co-op works
Online co-op assigns each crewmate to different ship systems across multiple decks of a deep space exploration vessel. Players coordinate navigation, engineering, science, and operations to chart distant star systems in a scientifically modeled Milky Way.
About this game
Starship Simulator places crews aboard a Magellan Class deep space exploration vessel to chart uncharted regions of the Milky Way. Built around a scientifically accurate galactic model, the game lets players roam freely across every deck of their starship while discovering distant worlds and phenomena.

Each ship system is fully simulated, from navigation and helm controls to engineering, sensors, and power distribution. Cooperative teams divide responsibilities, with one player managing propulsion, another tracking stellar cartography, and others handling environmental or tactical stations. Communication and coordination keep the ship running smoothly as crews respond to spatial hazards or decide which systems to investigate next.
Between missions, crewmates can gather in the bar or other social spaces to plan routes, review discoveries, or simply enjoy the view. The combination of high-fidelity simulation and open exploration gives cooperative groups long-term goals and the freedom to set their own pace through the cosmos.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does co-op work in Starship Simulator?
Players crew the same Magellan Class starship together online, with each person taking responsibility for different ship systems like navigation, helm, engineering, sensors, or power distribution. Communication and coordination are essential to keep the vessel running smoothly as you explore the galaxy.
Can I explore the entire ship freely?
Yes, you have unrestricted access to every deck of the Magellan Class vessel. You can move between bridge stations, engineering bays, social spaces like the bar, and other areas while exploring or coordinating with your crewmates.
Is the galaxy procedurally generated or based on real data?
Starship Simulator uses a scientifically accurate model of the Milky Way galaxy, letting you chart and discover distant uncharted worlds within a realistic galactic framework rather than randomly generated space.
Do I need to be actively managing systems the whole time?
Not necessarily. While ship systems are fully simulated and require crew attention during navigation and hazard response, you can also relax in social areas like the bar between missions, watch the stars drift by, and set your own pace through exploration.
