Starport -> Starport Synopsis Paragraphs

Starport Code	Starport	Remarks
-	does not have a starport. Space and starships must find unprepared landing areas.	No remarks.
A	has an excellent quality starport. A Class-A Starport Facility has very well developed shipyards and is capable of producing first rate starships. This facility has many very skilled personnel who can perform not only major repair work, but overhaul work as well. This facility has advanced refueling and refining infrastructure. One may purchase practically any kind of refined fuel here. Almost every starport of this class possesses both a Lowport and a Highport. Sometimes multiple ports of each type.	For a mainworld only.
B	has a good quality starport. A Class-B Starport Facility has not very well developed shipyards and is only capable of producing spaceships. This facility has many very skilled personnel who can perform not only major repair work, but overhaul work as well. This facility has advanced refueling and refining infrastructure. One may purchase practically any kind of refined fuel here. Almost every starport of this class possesses both a Lowport and a Highport. Such ports rarely have more than one of each kind of port.	For a mainworld only.
C	has a routine quality starport. A Class-C Starport Facility has minimal if any shipyards and can only perform extremely limited repair work. This facility has many very skilled personnel who can perform major repair work. This facility has refueling infrastructure and limited refining capabilities. One may purchase unrefined fuel here. Starports of this class rarely have both a Lowport and a Highport.	For a mainworld only.
D	has a poor quality starport. A Class-D Starport Facility has minimal if any shipyards and can only perform extremely limited repair work. This facility has many skilled personnel who can perform minor repair work. This facility has refueling infrastructure and limited refining capabilities. One may purchase unrefined fuel here. Starports of this class very rarely have both a Lowport and a Highport.	For a mainworld only.
E	has a frontier quality starport. A Class-E Starport Facility is a very limited facility. This facility has no shipyard and can only perform extremely limited repair work at best. This facility has refueling infrastructure and limited refining capabilities. One may purchase unrefined fuel here. Starports of this class are usually a Lowport and a Highport would almost never be found.	For a mainworld only.
F	has a good quality spaceport. It does not have the facilities to handle interstellar starship traffic, only stellar system spacecraft. A Class-F Starport Facility has minimal if any shipyards and can only perform extremely limited repair work. This facility has many skilled personnel who can perform minor repair work. This facility has refueling infrastructure and limited refining capabilities. One may purchase unrefined fuel here. Spaceports of this class rarely have both a Lowport and a Highport.	Not for a mainworld, for a secondary world.
G	has a poor quality spaceport. It does not have the facilities to handle interstellar starship traffic, only stellar system spacecraft. This facility has no shipyard and can only perform extremely limited repair work at best. This facility does have some skilled personnel who can perform superficial repair work. This facility has refueling infrastructure and limited refining capabilities. One may purchase unrefined fuel here. Spaceports of this class rarely have both a Lowport and a Highport.	Not for a mainworld, for a secondary world.
H	has a primitive quality spaceport. It does not have the facilities to handle interstellar starship traffic, only stellar system spacecraft. This facility has no shipyard and can only perform extremely limited repair work at best. This facility has no refueling infrastructure and can provide no fuel. Visiting craft must seek their own fuel supplies. Spaceports of this class very rarely have both a Lowport and a Highport.	Not for a mainworld, for a secondary world.
X	does not have a starport. The world has no shipyard and no facilities to for repair. This facility has no refueling infrastructure and can provide no fuel. Visiting craft must seek their own fuel supplies.	Not for a mainworld, for a secondary world. Class X ports are interdicted and not generally available to off-worlders. They may be restricted to government traffic or private. Regardless, class X ports should be considered without facilities.
Y	does not have a spaceport. Space and starships must find unprepared landing areas. This starport designation has no facilities at all: no shipyard and no repair work capacity. This facility has no refueling infrastructure and can provide no fuel. Visiting craft must seek their own fuel supplies. Spaceports of this class have neither a Lowport nor a Highport.	Not for a mainworld, for a secondary world. Class Y indicating that a spaceport doesn't have facilities.
