The Rockomax HubMax Multi-Point Connector is a part used to connect objects in 6 different directions, often used for docking and as a space station core.

Usage

Despite the name implying that this part can be used for docking, it cannot dock with other parts without additional parts. A docking port needs to be used to ensure this part can be used for docking. Otherwise, it simply provides a point to connect objects in 6 separate directions. For large structures, the Rockomax Brand Adapter 02 can be used to attach Clamp-O-Tron Sr. Docking Ports instead of the standard Clamp-O-Tron Docking Ports.

Other options for perpendicular part placement are the smaller The Not-Rockomax Micronode and the single BZ-52 Radial Attachment Point.

Product description

When it was unveiled at the 3rd annual Rockets & Explosions festival, the HubMax Multi-Point Connector caused several patrons to die of shock on the spot. 'All my life I thought rocket parts could be placed one way - up! But Rockomax today has shattered that notion' said one survivor, who asked to remain anonymous. Needless to say, this part may very well herald a revolution in construction technologies. Docking ports sold separately.
