== Introduction ==
'''Eos Station''' is a [[Watchtower Class|''Watchtower''-class]] station that is located on the Federation-Romulan border.


Visual spam in Star Trek Online can get to be a little much. It makes it hard to see certain actions within the game, and when people are running multiple things at once, it just gets to be impossible to see. An example is the Beacon of Kahless, the flash is completely blinding and while it is active you are flying blind - not to mention the time where it takes for your corneas to shift back to looking at a dark game afterwards.
==Summary==
Commissioned in the year 2293, shortly before the signing of the Khitomer Accords, the Watchtower-class Eos Station was a military outpost along the Romulan Neutral Zone. Charged with gathering intel on the Romulans, defense of the Federation borders, and keeping tabs on our Romulan neighbors, Eos Station was the best of the best. Equipped with all the latest technology of the day, Eos Station was a shining beacon for the Federation.


Enter the console command.
Following the Tomed Incident in 2311, the Romulan Star Empire entered a prolonged period of total isolation. In that time, politics changed, people changed, and the Federation’s needs changed. Once a part of the old guard, Eos was relegated to an overequipped, unimportant outpost along a border of the Federation that seemingly no longer mattered. Over the following decades, Eos fell into disrepair due to her low priority status. 2400 was the year that changed everything for Eos Station as the collapse of the Romulan Star Empire of Rator and de facto Romulan civil war changed the landscape once again. Revived and brought back to life, Eos Station is called upon again to serve the borders of the Federation, this time opposite Romulan space from the Romulan Free State, as well as many other unknown independent Romulan factions all vying for control.


== The Command ==
==Layout==


This is all based on a command that you would have to set up. The console command is:
====Primary Hull====
Eos Station features a typical 23rd-century Federation design, consisting of a saucer-shaped primary hull with a central command tower and four main docking bays capable of servicing Constitution-class starships or smaller. Positioned halfway down is an external docking wheel, while the energy reactor housing and multi-spectrum array are located at the bottom of the station. The command tower houses the shuttlebays, medical center, support offices, and an impressive two deck operations center. Support facilities, crew quarters, and crew accommodations are also housed within the primary hull. Phaser arrays are evenly distributed around the station's exterior.


<code>dynFxExcludeFX</code>
==== Secondary Hull====
The secondary hull of Eos Station predominantly houses cargo and maintenance facilities, along with the energy reactor and multi-spectrum array mount. Maneuvering thrusters, lifeboat ports, and weapon platforms are situated on the external hull of the secondary section.


This code above is meant to exclude selected visual effects in game, either from yourself or from others. This command can use any list you want to include afterwards, but you have to know the programmed name of the VFX you want to exclude. Using this as an example:
===='''Terrestrial Enclosure'''====


<code>dynFxExcludeFX Cfx_Ships_Cp_T6_Risian_Science_Neutronic_Edides_Costumefx $$ dynFxExcludeFX Fx_Ships_Consoles_Cb21_Delphictear $$ dynFxExcludeFX Cfx_Ship_Cp_Cb27_Generate_Plasma_Storm_Costumefx $$ dynFxExcludeFX Fx_Er_Bbs_Beacon_Of_Kahless_Flash $$ dynFxExcludeFX Cfx_Ship_Trait_Temporal_Anchor_Costumefx $$ dynFxExcludeFX C1_E_Ship_Xindi_Lockboxcb15_Kemocite_Weaponry_Bufffx $$ dynFxExcludeFX Fx_Bop_Braceforimpact $$ dynFxExcludeFX Fx_Bop_Godownfighting $$ dynFxExcludeFX Cfx_Ship_Crewteam_Tacticalteam_Buff $$ dynFxExcludeFX Cfx_Ship_Sp_T6_Jellyfish_Cnidarian_Defense_Aoe $$ dynFxExcludeFX Fx_Bop_Photonicofficer_activate $$ PlayerSay Visual Spam Keybind Activated</code>
Tucked away within the primary hull of Eos Station, the biodome (as the locals call it) is a self-contained habitat. Its lush landscape is programmed to echo Napa Valley, California on Earth, complemented by an artificial sky programmable to simulate day and night. Affectionately known as "Eden," the Terrestrial Enclosure contains a thriving meadow, a high-speed tram, an athletic field, and a small commercial and residential district, among a variety of other amenities and establishments.


This chunk of code would deactivate the VFX only for these powers:
==Promenade==
The station houses a multi-level business district, Promenade.  This area is positioned just below the docking ring and contains a assortment of businesses able fulfill even of the pickiest of shoppers. Often referred to as a city within a city, the Promenade District features some of the best shopping and eating establishments in the galaxy.


* Neutronic Eddies
====Club 504====
* Delphic Tear
[[File:Gencraft image 1710272599935-1.png|thumb|alt=|left]]
* Plasma Storm Generator
* Beacon of Kahless flash
* Temporal Anchor (the red Gravity Well)
* Kemocite
* Brace For Impact
* Go Down Fighting
* Tactical Team
* Jellyfish Defense (the AOE only)
* Photonic Officer


There is a complete list of all discovered VFX powers in game [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/13SVBAgBMC9uVSJ2SIzBapIInCrDFpWiD here]. This would take some time to go through.


Copy-pasting this into the console on every login is impractical, so there has to be a better way.


== Making a Keybind ==
Club 504, the  nightlife destination on Eos Station, is owned and operated by the mysterious Lon Tik, a Human with a fondness for the finer things in life. This club offers an unparalleled experience for patrons from all corners of the galaxy. Nestled within the crowded confines of Eos Station, Club 504 is the  premier establishment for those needing a little night life entertainment.


A keybind is well defined [https://sto.fandom.com/wiki/Guide:_Keybinds here] already, but for the purpose of brevity as that document is very long, we will go over what you need to do in order to make one for just VFX spam. This will set it so that you only have to hit F9 in order to execute the command for disabling VFX.


First, open up Notepad and copy the following text into it:


<code>F9 "dynFxExcludeFX Cfx_Ships_Cp_T6_Risian_Science_Neutronic_Edides_Costumefx $$ dynFxExcludeFX Fx_Ships_Consoles_Cb21_Delphictear $$ dynFxExcludeFX Cfx_Ship_Cp_Cb27_Generate_Plasma_Storm_Costumefx $$ dynFxExcludeFX Fx_Er_Bbs_Beacon_Of_Kahless_Flash $$ dynFxExcludeFX Cfx_Ship_Trait_Temporal_Anchor_Costumefx $$ dynFxExcludeFX C1_E_Ship_Xindi_Lockboxcb15_Kemocite_Weaponry_Bufffx $$ dynFxExcludeFX Fx_Bop_Braceforimpact $$ dynFxExcludeFX Fx_Bop_Godownfighting $$ dynFxExcludeFX Cfx_Ship_Crewteam_Tacticalteam_Buff $$ dynFxExcludeFX Cfx_Ship_Sp_T6_Jellyfish_Cnidarian_Defense_Aoe $$ dynFxExcludeFX Fx_Bop_Photonicofficer_activate $$ PlayerSay Visual Spam Keybind Activated"</code>


Once done, save the file as something easy to remember, like "fxspamstop.txt". Once done, you want to move this file to the following path: <code>Star Trek Online_en\Star Trek Online\Live</code>. If you installed the game in a custom way, you may have to look for this folder. Steam users, it would be installed in a path that looks like this: <code>Steam\steamapps\common\Star Trek Online\Star Trek Online\Live</code>.


Once that is done, click in the chat box and type in <code>/bind_load_file fxspamstop.txt</code> and hit Enter. Once this command is accepted the visual FX spam will stop working once you hit F9 on any new character load. Please note that you may have to repeat this /bind_load_file command if the game goes through updates, but it should be persistent even after quitting and reloading for the most part.
 
 
====The Quantum Brew====

Tucked away in the docking ring, The Quantum Brew is a place of warmth and comfort. The aroma of freshly roasted beans fill the air, inviting patrons to take a temporary pause from their travels. The decor is a rustic charm, with holographic displays of celestial bodies decorating the walls with traditional Bolian tapestries. The owner, a cheerful Bolian named Tuvor, is always ready with a friendly smile and a hot cup of the Nebula's Nectar, a signature blend he ''claims'' was inspired by none other than Admiral Janeway herself.

Neatly organized rows of bottles adorning the shelves behind the bar showcase a diverse selection of spirits and liquors. A charming touch of rusticity is added by the prominent display of cigar boxes atop the bar, subtly alluding to a culture of indulgence and convivial gatherings.
