Unlocking the Pet Feature
Your journey with a pet begins after successfully completing the "Smithy Start-up" mission (one of the early home station quests). Then, you'll get a new quest, "Loyal Friends," guiding you to acquire an ENCLOSURE, the key to accessing your pet companion.
About the Enclosure
The Enclosure, purchasable at the Market for 100,000 coins, is a special building at your home station that unlocks the pet feature. This building requires no construction. You can have only one enclosure. While you can store it, remember, storing deactivates your pet.
