Similar to landing Gear, Connectors are magnetic and can lock and unlock. One connector on each side is needed to, for example, dock a ship to another ship, or to a station. Next to Landing Gear, Connectors are your second option for docking. The combination of these two functions can eliminate the need to manually empty containers and move items by hand.
The Connector can also be used to release objects into space from a ship's inventory by selecting the 'throw out' option in the terminal, similar to an Ejector.
Players can access the terminal and inventories of ships connected to theirs in this way. Blocks within either conveyor system can then make push and pull requests as though they were one ship. The connected systems then share electricity and inventory. If the Connectors are then locked (using the Terminal or by pressing 'P') the rim will turn green and thus the connection is established. When two Connectors come within proximity, the rim will turn yellow. The primary purpose of the Connector is to form a temporary connection between the conveyor systems of two ships or stations. The Connector is a block in Space Engineers. Allows transfer of cargo between two or more grids.
