Transit Lounge

A roped-off corner of the concourse with hard plastic seats and a departures board that mostly works. Faction ships can drop connecting passengers here (unload_passenger target=lounge) for other members to fly onward (load_passenger picks them up alongside the platform queue) — fares and fare deadlines carry over, and whoever completes the delivery collects the full fare. Layover passengers spend a little at the station's dining and leisure amenities while they wait, and the departures board warns your faction when anyone is about to miss their connection — a passenger whose fare deadline runs out mid-layover walks out to the public pickup queue and the fare is gone. Holds up to 20 passengers. Upgrade to a Transit Terminal (L2) for more seats and a fare-deadline extension for connecting passengers.
