Interactive Tools
Updated: v2026.02.13
Interactive calculators and design aids for Aurora C# ship design and fleet planning. All calculations use formulas and values verified against the Aurora game database (AuroraDB.db v2.7.1).
Verified data only: These tools deliberately exclude any formula or value that has not been confirmed against an authoritative source. Where unverified mechanics exist, the tools note the omission and link to the relevant tracking issues.
