The Scientist Alter — The Alters Walkthrough

Base Building: Access the building menu via the Command Center terminal. Modules must be placed adjacent to existing ones. Green highlights indicate valid placement spots. You can move or delete modules, but some are fixed. Ensure sufficient storage and manage base mass to prevent travel issues.

Base Mass & Fuel: Each module adds weight, requiring more Fuel (Organics) for travel. Upgrade storage and the Organics Tank. Use the Scanner to find Organics deposits and connect them with Mining Outposts and Pylons.

Tiredness & Exhaustion: All actions consume energy. Monitor the Energy Bar; being tired slows task completion, and exhaustion bleeds time into the next day, reducing available awake time. Prioritize tasks carefully.

Crafting: Schedule crafting in the Workshop Queue via the 'TAB' menu ('Production' > select workshop > select item). Crafting must be done at the corresponding Workbench (e.g., Kitchen Workbench). Crafting consumes significant energy.
