	All base facilities must be linked, either directly or via other base facilities, to the [[Access Lift]]. While you cannot dismantle a base facility that is in use or is linking other facilities to the Access Lift, it can be destroyed in the process of a [[Base ~~Defense~~]] mission. If a base facility is destroyed in this way, any other base facilities that were relying on that facility as a link to the Access Lift will also be destroyed. Any pieces of equipment, craft, or personal will, however, remain in the base (despite the lack of room).

	If you take down a facility and leave bare dirt, you will continue to pay maintenance on it. But not at the old rate; filling the hole back with dirt means it needs special attention at all times by specialists. In fact for every square of dirt you have that used to be a facility you will pay '''$80k/month'''. Thats '''$320k per hangar''' you take down.

In fact for every square of dirt you have that used to be a facility you will pay '''$80k/month'''. Thats '''$320k per hangar''' you take down.

	There are only ~~two~~ known ways to stop paying this premium: 1) completely dismantle the base, or 2) build over all the spaces that you have vacated. In fact as soon as you start building the new facility you stop paying the premium, as well as not having to pay the cost of the new facility until it is complete.

In fact as soon as you start building the new facility you stop paying the premium, as well as not having to pay the cost of the new facility until it is complete, or 3) hex edit the base.dat file in your save and change the byte that indicates the number of days until the destroyed module is complete from 00 to ff.

	'''Note:''' If you start a facility and change your mind before it is complete, after the time it would have completed you will start paying this $80k premium!
