Orbital Cargo Drone (OCD)

The **Orbital Cargo Drone (OCD)** is one of the most powerful and unique features offered exclusively by HWS. It allows you to store items securely in a virtual Cargo Box that persists across wipes—ensuring your valuables remain safe over time. You can access your OCD through **HWS Connect** or via in-game commands.

Note: You must log in for HWS Connect to stay up-to-date. Tools like Structure Commander may show outdated info otherwise.
Damaged weapons, armors, boosters inside armors, and trade commodities cannot be stored at any OCD level.

:card_index_dividers: OCD Categories

For HWS+ EU/NA:

For HWS Reforged Eden (HWS RE):

OCD works slightly differently in HWS RE to better align with the scenario’s intended gameplay. Categories differ due to block ID variations.

> ℹ️ These categories may be updated or rearranged over time.

:hammer_and_wrench: OCD Upgrades

There are 10 OCD levels. Each upgrade increases storage slots and capacity.

> ✅ Alien cores can be stored at **any** OCD level now—Level 5 is no longer required.
