The Admin Annex is where you will find vital game information. Without it the Director may not be aware of what is available to him, or have the data he needs.

Every two years in the Astronaut Recruiting Office prospective candidates will appear. This means a new group of recruits are available for recruiting.

The Budget Office allows you to access the data with which you can access the data that will be available to you, consisting of your expenditures by category: Satellites, Manned Spacecraft, Rockets, and Miscellaneous Hardware. Each category will show you your past expenditures. The last bit of data will offer you a history of your Agency's budget, along with your nation’s intelligence agency’s estimate of your opponent’s space budgets.

Before sending spacecraft, satellites, and astronauts into space you must first schedule their launches. All missions must be planned four months in advance.

The purchasing office is what allows you to begin new hardware programs or restock your hardware inventory. All of the various programs are useful in winning the game, but not all are needed at one time or possibly at all. Budget, price, what your opponent is doing, and your overall strategy all become factors on what programs you should develop.

This is the location for intelligence briefings on your opponent(s). As in real life, not all of the intelligence data is accurate. Even photographs can be altered for deception. Sometimes early mockups of space proposals were misinterpreted by rival intelligence agencies as primary programs.

A player starts with one operational launch pad (A) and can purchase three more for a total of four launch facilities. They will list the current missions scheduled for this month.

Once a year, your country’s leader reviews your performance as head of the space program. A successful year can bring praise and increases in funding, while failure can cause great disappointment.

This facility starts small since the player starts slowly in his research and development of space hardware. It can grow quite large during the game. Each hardware and spacecraft program will be listed. Each active program will be listed, along with the programs progress.

Payloads and rockets must be assembled for missions that are scheduled for the current month. The VAB displays a description of the planned mission. If it is a manned mission, the flight crew will be displayed.

If you have missions scheduled for this month and the GM has approved all of your orders you have issued, including the VAB configuration check, you are ready to launch.
