A capitol building acts as the town hall for a city. It is the seat of government for the city.

City

A capitol is used to start a city. When placing the capitol, a popup window will appear asking you to name the city. If the sector and/or solar system isn't named yet, you will be able to choose a name for them too.
Note: All these names can be changed later if so desired.

Jurisdiction

A capitol has a small radius around it that establishes its jurisdiction. only buildings inside the jurisdiction will be part of the city.

The size of the city's jurisdiction can be extended with police stations.

For more information, see the City page.

Declaring Capital

City Management

When in the chain of command of a city, it is possible to control all building manufacturing processes from the capitol building. This is done using the Building (F10) window while standing at the capitol building's site.

Managing a machine shop remotely.

This window displays all of the buildings, with their location, and distance from you. By selecting a building, a traditional Building window appears in the lower half allowing you to remotely manage the manufacturing of that building, including construction.

The refresh button in the top-right corner of the window updates the list. The bulldozer button bulldozes the selected building.

While in the top-down view, the selected building will be highlighted.

Trivia

In the past, capitols were not used to found cities, but instead the game used town squares. These were placed flags that would act as the center "building" which the city would branch off.
