There are two sub-sections of the Manage section of the Ship window of the Station Interface: the Select Ship sub-section, and the Configure Ship subsection, which is further divided into the Addons and Groups displays.

Select Ship

As suggested by its title, this panel allows the user to select a ship from their ships stored in the current station's docking bay. The left display is a 3D model of the currently selected ship. The upper-right display lists the ships available for selection- double-clicking on a ship here will make it your currently selected ship, as will single-clicking on it and pressing the "Select Ship" button. The lower-right display provides the statistics of the currently selected ship. Furthermore, there are buttons on the left for purchasing ammunition.

Also of note are the "Set Preset" buttons. Vendetta Online allows you to store your favorite ship configurations as presets. To store one, simply select a ship and press the appropriate "Set Preset" button.

Configure Ship

This tab is actually divided into two sub-tabs: the Addons tab and the Groups tab:

Addons

This interface allows you to attach addons to your ship. The various ports of your ship (small ports, large ports, powercell ports, etc.) are displayed on the model of your ship to the left, and the addons available in your station hold for attaching are displayed in the list to the left. To attach an addon, first select the appropriate port on your ship, then either double-click on an appropriate addon in the list to the right, or single-click on the addon to the right and click "Equip".


Groups

This is where you set up the firing groups for your weapons. There are six different configuration groups available, which map to the keys 1-6 on your keyboard. By default, the first firing group ("1") is selected. In each of these firing groups, you can bind your weapons to three triggers, which are conventionally mapped to your left, right, and middle mouse buttons. To bind a weapon to a trigger, first select the trigger in the pane to the right, then click on the weapon on the model of your ship to the left.
