Starship Separation
Starship Separation is an ability whereby a player or NPC starship can separate into two or more autonomous units. The player commands one, while the other units fight alongside the player as pets. Its name varies depending on its usage but usually relies on a special console.
If the [Console - Universal - Antimatter Spread] is equipped, the separated starship section can make use of the 
Antimatter Spread ability.
