Hey, I stumbled upon your video and I have a few tips:

1. Powering your base – Electromagnetic generators are the best source of electricity as they run forever with no fuel input, but they are required to be placed in specific areas of planets. These can be found using the surveying upgrade for the analysis visor, which is unlockable at the anomaly in exchange for nanites. Solar power is useful for bases which are not near electromagnetic power sources, and it behaves exactly as you would expect.

2. Making money – If you set up resource collectors on deep-level mineral deposits (also found via the surveying upgrade), connect them to supply depots with supply pipes, and give them power, the collectors will automatically extract and store resources even while you’re not playing. Selling the extracted resources at space stations will net a nice chunk money. Such a setup requires a decent quantity of resources to construct, but once you have a steady income it’s pretty easy to buy most basic resources at space stations rather than mining for extended periods of time. The resources obtainable via this method on any given planet are the same as the ones available in its “normal” resource deposits.

3. Frigate missions – Try to send groups of frigates on expeditions where the star rating of the collective group of frigates being sent is at least equal to (or ideally, higher than) that of the mission (e.g., try not to send a 1-star cohort on a 2-star mission); the likelihood of positive outcomes is higher this way.

4. Misc

a. Larger refiners do not require fuel, but will draw power from your base’s generators. They also have more efficient recipes for some things; as a first guess try throwing carbon or oxygen with another mineral and see what happens.

You are nearing a hard choice. I wont spoil it for you, but be ready.

At the start of this Quest you can find the plans for the starter items, such as Biofuel reactor, on your Construction device in your wooden base. More will be added as the Base computer recovers its files. If you don't build an item the Base computer gives you it will not recover the next one. The game changes which quest you are on seemingly at random so it needs to be checked and put back onto what you want to be doing such as changing from Base computer quest to Artemis quest. You can use the teleporter between the hanger (on each of the walkways between the bays) and bridge (either side of the Admiral) which is faster/easier than the stairs. You only need the sequencer to modify your egg not to hatch it. The door isn't closing because you have no power. You need to wire the biofuel reactor to the building (where there are lightning symbols) and charge the reactor. It's been a long time since I did this as I normally skip it all on new saves. On the first save it is a good idea to follow the quest lines. Good luck in you journey and enjoy. Sorry for the huge dump of info, it is a lot more complicated than PC but after a short time you can pick and choose what you want to do.

If you are getting lost in your freighter rooms you can deconstruct and rebuild all of the corridors and rooms in the construction area into a layout that makes sense for yourself.

The Apollo Quest this is so bloody sad she has a real hard choice if you're looking for a nanites you can start doing scrap ships is go to the station talk to the category and once in a while you'll get a distress call you can actually play the ship take it up to the station and then tear it up to get car for your ship and nanites

😲The expedition team got fined😱😹Send them out again🤓The egg🥚😲Hope ur well take care n have a marvellous day✨✨🦸‍♀️🥚

You should go to a paradise planet, they usually have loads of buried tech, also look for tier 3 systems to get exotic ships and go to derelict freighters to get upgrades for your own

To help you out if you don't want to go back to your planet for your specialist you can you used to freighter once you learn to build in it easier access to them
