A second variant with four "arms" was introduced with Cavalieri in Electra. In rare cases, a Coriolis will also feature two "arms" extending from opposite facets of the main structure, as seen with Smith Reserve in LDS 883. The exterior of the Coriolis consists of inverted skyscrapers, where penthouses provide spectacular views of space in addition to comfortable levels of gravity.

By the 3300's, although new Coriolis stations continue to be built both within the Core Systems and out in the frontiers of the Colonia Region and Pleiades Nebula, maintaining them has become more costly as parts have become more difficult to procure or manufacture. When it was first introduced by GalCop, the design had a much smaller diameter of 1 kilometer, but beginning in the 3200's the size was increased. Modern Coriolis stations are cuboctahedrons with a 2-kilometer diameter.
