Take your base building to the next level with these tips:

  • Power Hotspots: Use the Survey Device to find electromagnetic hotspots. Building an Electromagnetic Generator on one provides infinite, free power for your base.
  • Mineral/Gas Extractors: Build these over mineral or gas deposits (found with the Survey Device) to passively harvest resources. Connect them to supply depots for storage.
  • Teleporters: Install a teleporter at your base for instant travel to and from Space Stations and the Space Anomaly.
  • Short-Range Teleporters: Useful for quickly moving around large bases or traversing difficult terrain.
  • Base Complexity: Be mindful of the base complexity limit, especially on consoles. Large, intricate bases can impact performance.
  • Community Bases: Visit other players' bases for inspiration or to utilize their resource farms.

Experiment with different building parts and colors to create unique and functional structures.
