The Medic Alter — The Alters Walkthrough

Master The Alters with our comprehensive beginner's guide. Learn about base building, resource management, crafting, and keeping your Alters happy to ensure your survival.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Objective: Evacuate the planet before the sun rises and emits deadly radiation.
  2. 2
    Core Mechanics: Manage time wisely, gather resources, craft essential items, and maintain the well-being of your Alters.
  3. 3
    Base Building: Access the building menu via the Command Center terminal. Modules must be placed adjacent to existing ones. Areas for placement are highlighted in green. Modules add to base mass, requiring more fuel for travel. Modules can be moved or deleted, but some are fixed.
  4. 4
    Base Mass & Fuel: Each module increases base mass, demanding more Fuel (Organics) for inter-timeline journeys. Upgrade storage capacity and the Organics Tank limit. Locate Organics deposits using the Scanner and connect them via Mining Outposts and Pylons.
  5. 5
    Tiredness & Exhaustion: All actions consume energy. The Energy Bar indicates remaining hours before tiredness. Tired characters perform tasks slower, leading to exhaustion. Exhaustion bleeds into the next day, reducing available awake time. Prioritize essential tasks.
  6. 6
    Crafting: Schedule crafting in the Workshop Queue via the 'TAB' menu and 'Production' option. Select the workshop and item, then craft at the designated Workbench using the 'E' key. Crafting consumes significant energy.
  7. 7
    Alters: Alters are alternate versions of yourself. Keep them happy by monitoring their mood, health, and thoughts in their respective tabs. Unhappy Alters can become dangerous. Prioritize High-Quality Meals, build the Social Room, play Beerbong, and watch movies to maintain their happiness.

Crafting Recipes:

  • Workshop: Mining Outpost (x30 Metals), Pylon Component Package x3 (x30 Metals), Suit Battery (x40 Organics), Drill Cartridge (x20 Metals), Repair Kit (x10 Metals), Radiation Filter (x10 Metals, x40 Organics), Qbit Chip (x20 Metals, x20 Minerals, x1 Damaged Chip).
