Augments provide passive bonuses to your ship. They don't consume power but take up an augment slot. Examples include: Automated Reloader (faster weapon charge), Scrap Recovery Arm (more scrap from battles), Long-Range Scanners (reveal beacon contents), Weapon Pre-Igniter (weapons charged at start of combat). Choose augments that complement your ship's build and address its weaknesses. Some augments are unique and can be game-changing.
