Basic Tips

Hints

Story Mode is an easier difficulty setting for players who want to focus on exploration instead of survival. It can also be a good introduction to the game’s systems if you’re having trouble.

You can pick crew members based on whose stories you’re most interested in, but crew members also have special abilities, so keep that in mind while assembling your crew.

Quests and deliveries are both good ways to earn credits.

It’s often cheaper to buy repairs and fuel than to use your resources. Therefore, you can sell your resources, especially rare minerals.

Healing items will not cure you of everything. A healing item will pick one problem to cure, so if you have multiple injuries, you’ll need multiple items.

If you’ve lost diplomacy with a particular alien race, fighting their enemies will improve your relationship again.

Getting a radiation shield will greatly help you when it comes to refueling and surviving dangerous situations.

Always make sure you have the right equipment before landing on a planet. Even once you’re protected, you should only risk landing on dangerous planets if they have rare resources.
