Adjacency bonuses are a crucial mechanic for maximizing the effectiveness of your technology. When you place similar technology modules (e.g., three S-class Hyperdrive modules) next to their core technology (the Hyperdrive itself) and next to each other, they receive a significant stat boost. The border of the module will glow to indicate an active bonus.
| Equipment | Example Technologies | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Exosuit | Hazard Protection, Life Support, Jetpack | Increased duration, faster recharge, higher jump. |
| Multi-tool | Mining Beam, Weapons, Scanner | Faster mining, higher damage, increased scan rewards. |
| Starship | Hyperdrive, Pulse Engine, Weapons, Shields | Longer warp range, faster speed, higher damage, stronger shields. |
Always plan your technology layout to take advantage of these bonuses.
