The HWS Garage is a one-of-a-kind feature offering access to extremely rare and powerful ships. These ships are available only in special locations and for a high credit cost. They’re built with unique features like Alien Cores, CV components in SVs, or HV drills in SVs — things you won’t find anywhere else in the galaxy.
This video shows the previous HWS Connect. The screenshots below show the current site.

You can still buy in game with ts:buy:<ID> (the ship ID is shown on the grid cards).
How It Works

- Sell your ship with
ts:sell:<price>while you sit in it inside an Elemental Garage Zone (0cancels the listing), or with Sell ship to Garage in the Structure Commander - Selling a ship costs a 10% fee
- Keeping your ship listed costs 1% per day
- DNA Cost =
(Number of times bought) * 10 HWS DNA- Example: Buying a ship for the 3rd time = 30 HWS DNA
