Captain's office; Separate captain's dorm; Captain's WC
The CIG interior artist documents separate captain office, sleeping room and WC. These are physical layout references from the 2020 production portfolio; no present private-storage, hygiene or command bonus is claimed.

2 × size4 top remote-turret guns, default pilot-slaved
CIG Alpha4.1 explicitly names the Carrack top remote turret as slaved by default; current matrix supplies its2size4guns. Zero fixed-gun objects does not mean unarmed. An occupied operator station can change control; no blanket remote-turret inference.
Depends on configuration · Current published reference
One pilot can fly; separate crew stations and away-craft roles remain separate
Default pilot-slaved top guns do not let one person simultaneously staff the three manned turrets. Park safely before leaving the pilot seat; launching a Pisces leaves no pilot aboard unless another person takes over. The 2019 Q&A considered automatic recall, without establishing a delivered autopilot.
Depends on configuration · Current published reference · Not verified in current gameplay
Three manned turrets, each with two size 4 CF-447 Rhino repeaters; One remote turret with two size 4 CF-447 Rhino repeaters
Eight fitted guns: six on the rear, left and right manned turrets, and two on the remote turret. CIG describes default pilot slaving for the top remote turret; an operator can change control. These are not eight pilot guns. Access routes and handoff controls have not been retested.

None documented in this fitted configuration
The recorded Carrack weapon inventory contains no missile, torpedo or bomb mounts. Flare and noise countermeasure launchers are separate systems. This describes the recorded fit, not every possible future or modified loadout.

C8 Pisces; URSA Rover
Standard Carrack and Carrack Expedition are listed with C8 Pisces and URSA Rover; explicit w/C8X variants instead list C8X Pisces Expedition and URSA. These are parent-hangar, non-stacking loaner entitlements, not proof that any in-game purchase includes them. Retrieve through ASOP; claim the secondary craft before the parent when recovering both.

2019 design intent: refuel a correctly landed Pisces from Carrack reserves
The Pisces designer Q&A promised hangar refueling in future tense. This historical statement does not establish that Carrack can currently refuel ships. Current ground-vehicle restock provision is recorded separately; carry enough fuel for the return trip.
Planned specification · Dated design reference · Not verified in current gameplay
Ground-vehicle restock provision
Alpha4.8 describes Carrack and600iExplorer as meant to restock ground vehicles that fit. This is not refueling every carried fighter or proof of a particular maximum fit.
Depends on configuration · Current published reference
Assigned imprint + functioning bed + MedGel + within range
Interact with the bed to assign regeneration; Carrack listed T 2 means minor/moderate treatment, while severe injuries need T 1 or hospital care. Stay within 8,000 km of the functioning bed and maintain MedGel. Destroyed bed, depleted supplies or excess range sends regeneration home. This is not an 8,000 km healing beam.

URSA in rover garage (reported); C 8Pisces family in upper hangar (reported)
URSA in the separate rover garage and Pisces-family craft in the upper hangar are documented examples. Fit, ownership and service support are three separate checks. No largest vehicle, doorway clearance, safe loading margin or universal variant fit is established.
Latest known value · Current published reference · Not verified in current gameplay
Depends on actual parent entitlement / pledge
Check the exact parent entitlement: ordinary Carrack and explicit w/C8X variants differ. Included secondary craft need not appear in the pledge item list, do not stack and are lost when the qualifying parent is upgraded away or reclaimed. A physically fitting craft is not automatically owned.

Crew medical facilities; Crew repair facilities; Habitation corridor; Captain's office and dorm; Mess hall; Social room; Crew quarters
The 2020 CIG artist identifies habitation and medical rooms; the matrix also lists crew repair facilities. A room name does not demonstrate functional repair, drone operation or every exploration system. Current room-by-room access has not been retested.

Main vehicle-garage ramp for reported ground boarding
An April 2026 owner report identifies the main ramp as the ground-level entrance. The garage and upper ship hangar are different spaces. This is not a complete EVA airlock inventory or a measured stretcher route; check the open ramp and receiving route before carrying an injured player aboard.

While parked, identify the actual landing access, crew route and medical bed. Agree a short rendezvous and what happens if either craft cannot return.
Ready when: Both pilots can describe the receiving location and a safe point to stop the drill.
The 2019 Pisces Q&A described a Carrack mothership role and future servicing ideas. It is not evidence that current automatic refueling, drone support, remote recall or every small ship fit is implemented.
Have the receiving medic report the bed’s actual tier and supplies. Assess whether the patient needs a hospital, then coordinate a clear transfer without abandoning flight control.
Ready when: The crew distinguishes a recovered shuttle from a patient who has actually reached adequate care.
The current matrix mentions onboard medical facilities, not a guarantee that every injury can be cured aboard. Check the current medical guide and keep a hospital alternative.
Check people, stored equipment, remaining fuel and the carried craft’s condition; plan a separate service stop before the next sortie. Before considering bedlogging, read the current carried-ship issue.
Ready when: The crew has an explicit next-session and craft-recovery plan rather than assuming everything will persist.
The 4.10.2 carrier bed-log report names Idris, Polaris and Tyilui; it does not establish a reproduced Carrack bug. Our recovery check is a precaution, not proof that this hull is affected. An old mothership-service promise also does not verify current servicing.
Selected community reports, checked 2026-10-20. Confirm the current price and availability at the terminal before spending aUEC.
No dated offer included for this hull yet. This does not mean it is unavailable.
Rentals are temporary access, not ownership. The PU rental timer continues while logged out, and rented component loadouts cannot be customized. Daily rates above do not establish discounts for longer rentals. RSI rental rules (updated 2026-04-28).
In-game purchases are distinct from pledges and may be affected by Alpha resets. RSI in-game purchase guidance.
Pledge availability and real-money prices have not been checked in this snapshot. Official ship information. An in-game offer does not establish pledge availability or that a game package is included.
Start with the Carrack’s own short route. Leaving in an away craft leaves no pilot aboard the Carrack. Do not treat the ship’s expedition role as a following autopilot or automatic rescue service.
6 advertised crew. This is an advertised crew reference, not a solo recommendation or passenger-seat count.
Record my Carrack setup and resultsKeep a pilot on the Carrack and name the away pilot and receiving medic. Confirm who opens access, who accounts for the returning people and craft, and who handles a failed pickup or medical escalation.

The current reference gives T3: 50 km, T2: 8,000 km and T1: 750 million km. A failed or out-of-range bed sends you home.
Select the bed and check its actual tier, range and status. All three tiers support regeneration; old no-respawn advice may be obsolete.

Regeneration costs 100 cSCU. Capacity is T3: 200, T2: 400, T1: 600 cSCU; treatment also consumes supplies.
Carry spare 200 cSCU canisters and refill the bed port. Count supplies before accepting another rescue.
