After the Relay's Planetary Base is destroyed, the Core Driller can be filled with [[Foundation]] and [[Soil Pile|Soil Piles]], or a [[Geothermal Power Station|Geothermal Power Plant]]. In either case, the Relay will leave and return to the Hive. | After the Relay's Planetary Base is destroyed, the Core Driller can be filled with [[Foundation]] and [[Soil Pile|Soil Piles]], or a [[Geothermal Power Station|Geothermal Power Plant]].

It is possible to destroy a Relay Station as it leaves the planet or before it lands on a planet. This does ''not'' cause the Hive's threat level to increase.[[File:Relay Stations docked .png|thumb|right|link=|416px|Relay Stations docked in the Space Hives Core.]] | It is possible to attack and destroy a Relay Station as it leaves the planet or before it lands on a planet.

The symbiotic relationship between Relays and Hives extends to their destruction as well. If the Hive is destroyed, its active Relays in the system will send back matter to quickly reconstruct its core (any Relays that were not already deployed will also attempt to settle on planets). If any Relays are destroyed, the Hive will construct new ones to deploy. To truly wipe out the Dark Fog in a system, it is necessary to destroy both the Hive and all of its Relays (although destroying the associated Planetary Bases is ''not'' required).[[File:Relay Stations docked .png|thumb|right|link=|416px|Relay Stations docked in the Space Hives Core.]] | |||
