You'll awaken on a hostile alien world with a damaged starship and a broken Multi-tool. Your immediate priority is survival. Follow the on-screen prompts for the 'Awakenings' quest line. This will guide you through:
- Repairing your Multi-tool: Gather Ferrite Dust and Carbon to fix your scanner and mining beam.
- Gathering Resources: Mine Carbon from plants and Ferrite Dust from rocks. These are your most basic building blocks.
- Recharging Hazard Protection: Extreme environments will drain your hazard protection. Use Sodium (from yellow plants) or Sodium Nitrate to recharge it.
- Repairing your Starship: This is a multi-step process requiring various resources like Pure Ferrite, Di-hydrogen, and Carbon Nanotubes. Prioritize getting your ship flight-ready.
Always keep an eye on your hazard protection and life support. Running out of either can be fatal.
