Universal components

Universal components can be installed in any ship room (department).

The following universal components exist in game:


 * Level Boosters - a very important component, which is why the tutorial starts you with two. It provides "system points", which your ship rooms (departments) need to go up the level. Check the room descriptions for what leveling them up does, but it is usually very good. Component names:
 * lv 1 - Level Booster
 * lv 2 - Level Booster Core, cost: 30000 plasma
 * lv 3 - Level Booster III
 * lv 4 - Prototype Z-RZ Booster
 * lv 5 - Ghost Ion Capacitor
 * Hardened Systems - Description is unclear. It states that it reduces incoming damage for the system it is installed (system presumably means the room); however the item stats state that it increases the "system health" value. Whether it reduces damage or adds hit points to the system in effectprobably reduces the amount of red in the red/white damage symbol. Component names:
 * lv 1 - Integral Protection
 * lv 2 - Inertial Harness
 * lv 3 - System Shield
 * lv 4 - Magnetic Web
 * lv 5 - Gravitic Field

Special:
 * Fusion Synthesizers acquirable during week 1, July 2014, combine boosters with hardened systems.

Strategy
While level booster seem very useful, the protection gadgets seem pretty useless in comparison.
