Hello,

I am a new player to STO and i am playing it now for a few days and i have a i quess a Noob question.

When my character is on the starbase and i rightclick on my chars. picture in the upper left corner (standard HUD) end i select info i get a screen with some of my chars features.
Under the name of my ship is a line called: Unspent skill points.

I can't seem to find any way to spent those skillpoints.

Can i spend those skill points?
If Yes, How?

Thanks in advance for answering this question.

Greetings,

Press U to bring up your Character screen. Then select the "Skills Tab" and you will see a window of Boxes representing skills, where you can assign points using the up arrow. There is a small guide on stowiki
