Art of the Support Station from the LEGO Rock Raiders video game

The Support Station is a building in the LEGO Rock Raiders video game.

Game information

In the Windows version of LEGO Rock Raiders, the Support Station is considered an advanced building.[1] It costs 3 Energy Crystals and 15 pieces of Ore (or 3 Building Studs) to construct one Support Station.[2] It takes one Energy Crystal to power it.[3] Its layout consists of two blocks in a 1×2 configuration, with one solid block for the building base and one entrance block below that.[4]

Once it has been constructed and powered, the Support Station begins to clean the cavern air. One Support Station supplies enough air for ten Rock Raiders.[2][3] For each Support Station constructed, an additional ten Rock Raiders can be teleported down beyond the default nine. Additionally, in missions with a limited air supply, the Support Station will begin resupplying any used air for up to ten Rock Raiders.

When hungry, Rock Raiders will automatocally stop what they are doing and go to eat at the Support Station.[5]

Rock Raiders can be trained as Drivers at the Support Station.[2]

The Support Station has the following dependency in order to be constructed:[2][6]

The Support Station can be upgraded twice:[3]

Pre-release

The game's instruction manual lists a different upgrade tree for the Support Station than its functional one. The manual lists that upgrading it to Level 1 unlocks the Geological Center, Upgrade Station, and Ore Refinery, and that upgrading it to Level 2 unlocks the Mining Laser and Super Teleport.[2] In-game, the former three are unlocked by a Level 1 Power Station alongside the Support Station, while the latter two require only a Level 1 Support Station.[6] Despite the Super Teleport's changed dependency, all large vehicles still require a Level 2 Support Station to be transported, making the Super Teleport non-functional until then.[6][9]
