Does somebody already know how to build a orbitalstation correctly?
Maybe some Youtubes available? (I can't find any)

There is a few YT's that show a ship being built.
"Correctly" is in the eye of the beholder...lol
Just search solargene. Iv found a few to watch.
Is there any certain question about them?

In the steam community category of this game there click on guides, there watch Tobbs' video "Build a ship" and follow the steps shown there.

Normally you need enough power, some batteries, a national kitchen with enough ingredients to produce the food, some oxygen, seats and beds for every astronaut and an entertainment room with seats for every astronaut and working places for every astronaut (fx. science places), a hospital with 2 doctors assigned, 1 kitchen robot assigned in the kitchen, and a robot repair with 1 constructor assigned there and an electrical loading place for the robot and some CO2-filters that change CO2 into oxygene. That's the minimum.
Personally I find that the way I prefer to put a station together - this would be after some research so you have bigger cargo and some other mainstay items.......consolidate all crates into a single one....I normally delete all solar panels off the right one add them to the left one.....after getting basic materials in clumps of 500 or so...for the basic structures....I get the supplies delivered and start with a 2x3x2 cargo room off right to the main docking port - then swap the solars to the right side and duplicate the cargo on the left side.....once done, add the largest cargo pods inside....for me its those huge +48 ones usually get 3 per room and then 3 smaller pods with them.....after this I put hallway behind the port and follow it back eventually just ensure all is connected (I normally chop off the fuel/battery/engine) - not need right now.......once I get the hallway I delete the orginal cargo behind the docking port...replace with hallway and extend it backwards - I want to have a 5 pod liquid going back along its spine eventually it will be a 3x5x2 on the left with liquid and same with batteries on the right.....the hallway will extend one beyond the liq/battery and will have one block left/right added where I put my thrusters on the sides....the back now has 3 blocks on the bottom and one center block on top.....that is also were you put thrusters on each side and the backside....below it on those 3 blocks facing backwards, I put my Fusion Engines - that completes the basic ship bottom.....after this I add the first coupler which will go one above the current height....there I will add docking stations each side and then I add the habitat ring right afterwards....I normally now take a 4 ring basic hab.......one pod will be residental/rec, another will be hospital/industrial (repair only) and bio engineer (usually 2 vats) - both ind/eng would be a 1x3 long side........I try to keep hallways in center and put things on each side....the powerplant is on another hub and usually it is the 2x2x2 setting and I drop a nuclear reactor in the centre of it. Then my residentals are set on each side for 3 rooms hallway in middle then hallway to break up all 6 rooms and another 3 rooms after that...then hallway then residental....and so forth....normally do want many residences... I drop a bathroom with stuff either on the same area at one side or both or add a small 1x3 in another area - all the rooms are using that bed suite which is the biggest one...and has to be fit into the room just right to ensure your door matches its opening....this seems to be the only bed that you actually assign people to......hospital normally is a small 2x2 or 2x3....a few beds and the operating chair....two if I want two medics....my original station is a research station so I have a large research area with 4 researchers using the best tech I have which is some really huge looking devices that take up like 2 levels at least. The pictures are from my original research station which I have not really updated to the most recent stuff but shows a bit of the original fuddling around before you start to understand stuff a bit more....hard to get rid of stuff as you have to delete individual stuff at a time.
