* UsefulNotes/ScriptingLanguage: UsefulNotes/{{Python}} definitely adds a lot of possibilities. Also, currently a ship can be launched with a special Python script AI, but only from XML mission profiles (it's too slow to have many instances all the time), but the stock hard-coded AI, as well as missiles, use XML-based behaviour scripts. Obviously, this makes the engine more mod-friendly, if too convoluted for an easy start.
* ShoutOut: Unit models are inspired by ''VideoGame/{{Elite}}'', ''Homeplanet'' (see [[http://games.gamepressure.com/view_screen.asp?ID=13511 this]], for example), ''Film/StarshipTroopers'' and whatnot. And, if you have sufficient knowledge of how to code in UsefulNotes/{{Python}} and have a good amount of experience in [=3D=] Modeling, [[GameMod you can make things based on]] ''VideoGame/FreeSpace'', ''Franchise/StarTrek'', ''Franchise/StarWars'', [[SerialEscalation or any other science-fiction work imaginable]].

[[http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/ Vega Strike]] allows players to explore a vastly dynamic universe where frontiers collide and you're just a pilot trying to make ends meet. How? That's your decision. Vega Strike is designed as a non-linear gaming experience, where you choose what action you want to take.

* StateSec: Subfaction [[http://wiki.vega-strike.org/Faction:Homeland_Security Homeland Security]] (subtle), which theoretically "exist for internal policing and control, especially in cases crossing between the jurisdictional boundaries of member states of [[TheFederation the Confederation]]". On our side of the FourthWall, it exists to feed BlackComedy with its unsubtle creepines, especially [[SecretPolice IntelSec]]. Like [[http://vegastrike.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/vegastrike/trunk/data/animations/load_screen.ani/splash_cisb.image?view=log this]] or [[http://vegastrike.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/vegastrike/trunk/data/animations/load_screen.ani/splash_luddite.image?view=log this]] (DXT images). To see the humourous part, consider that propaganda they intercepted [[http://vegastrike.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/vegastrike/trunk/data/animations/load_screen.ani/luddite_virus.image?view=log may be sent and received because of malware]] in the first place ([[EvilLuddite Luddites]] are big on HypocriticalHumor too). In [[WelcomeToCorneria chat]], they say things like "Wrong-thinkers are everywhere, keep a lookout, friend", or (almost verbatim) MoveAlongNothingToSeeHere.
