'''Abilities''' (or powers) can be activated (powers usable/clickable in the tray) in [[space combat|space]] or on the [[ground combat|ground]]. They come in four major groups; ==Player abilities== :''Main article: [[Player ability]]'' Player abilities are innate, clickable abilities unlocked by the character by [[rank|leveling up]], slotting certain [[trait]]s, or by gaining [[Diplomacy|diplomatic/marauding XP]]. Examples include; * {{ability|Evasive Maneuvers}}: Granted when a character reaches level 2, this is a manoeuvrability and speed boost in space. * {{ability|Miraculous Repairs}}: Available to [[Career_path#Engineering|Engineers]], this is applies a major instant heal in space. * {{trait|Nerve Pinch}}: A trait-based ability, this allows [[Vulcan]]s to stun a ground enemy. ==Bridge officer and kit abilities== :''Main article: [[Bridge officer and kit abilities]]'' Bridge officer and kit abilities are interlinked. An ability of a bridge officer on the ground is often paralleled by an equivalent [[kit|kit module]] for your captain. For example, {{ability|Turret Fabrication}} can be applied to your bridge officers via [[Training Manual]] or to your captain via {{item|Engineering Kit Module - Beam Turret}} Space abilities are unique to bridge officers, however. To be available, the bridge officer has to be assigned a station. An example is {{ability|Beams: Fire at Will}}. Bridge officer ground and space abilities differ in quality (I, II and III) linked to rank. Every bridge officer can only have one ability per rank (Ensign, Lieutenant, Lieutenant Commander and Commander) active at any one time. ==Ship abilities== :''Main article: [[Ship abilities]]'' A few ship abilities are common to all ships, for example {{ability|Full Impulse}}, but most are tied to a particular ship or type of ship. For example; * {{ability|Sensor Analysis}} is only available on [[Science Vessel]]s and a handful of others. * {{ability|Tachyon Detection Grid}} is only available while flying a [[Nebula Class Science Vessel]] or its [[Terran]] counterpart. ==Item abilities== :''Main article: [[Item abilities (space)|Item abilities]]'' Item abilities are abilities granted by having a specific [[item]]. In most cases the item must be equipped but a few rare examples can be activated from your [[inventory]]. * [[Auxiliary Battery]] is a consumable which provides a boost to [[Auxiliary]] power. * {{ability|Fireworks}} is a non-combat [[emote]] device. * {{ability|Deploy Repair Platform}} creates a repair drones to heal your ship.
