Your video literally saved me from deleting this game, i downloaded last night w my cousin and in 3 hours all we got was a pillar with a windmill on top and a lot of crying this helped a lot w understanding everything

Small correction: Yields from stone are lower in the basic refinery than they are in the survival kit (which gets yields the same as a large refinery). You don't need to queue the ingots, though, and of course it can also refine ores and scrap metal.

Nice to see a new tutorial with up-to-date game mechanics.

Extra tip on progression: Just grind the existing item to below functional level, and then weld it up again.

Don't forget to grab your H2 bottle from the O2 generator at the start.. big jetpack range extension... :)
The respawn pod salvage is an epic resource!

Me and my buddy bought this game last night and played about 2 hours but didn't get anywhere because I needed to find out how to have him join my game, find him and his ship, figure out why my ship was upside down, how to get O2/H2. So we gave up for the night and figured we'd just try to look up basic info online... I found a TON of terrible info that either didn't really answer any questions or answered them incorrectly (like referring to the BEACON not the ANTENNA and no one mentioned reducing the spawn point distance), etc...

Then I found your vid right before giving up and going to sleep and within the first 4 mins literally you answered about 5 of my MAJOR questions. And your vid was easy to follow and wasn't overly flashy with crazy music or editing. Just a really well done and helpful vid. Thanks man.

#1 tip, your first ship is closer than you think at start. You can easily make the landing pod into a little flyer. If your a good pilot you dont need directional thrust, you can fly it kinda as a helicopter. However i do recommend having 1 each direction for safety. Because: PROTEC the survival kit at ALL costs.

Another beginner MP tip, as some comments hints, you can easily build your respawn ship into a flying ship. Most Servers delete the respawn ships. If you build a Hinge on your station, add the small head (3x3 head) and a small merge block, also a small merge block to your respawn pot, you can merge those and after that your respawn ship wont delete.
Its a bit tricky because some thrusters are missing but for fast progression in early game, this is one of the best solution, since you dont need to grind down all of the respawn ship

Fantastic tutorial I really like how compact your set up is, a small tip I think is worth mentioning is that if yournsurvival kit is further away from the refinery and assembler they will become the default and you dint need to worry about selecting the correct assembler on the drop down. Depending on how long you hold onto the first set up or if you get unlucky with the spawn it can be worth an extra conveyer tube. But fantastic guide

The most useful tutorial I have found, thank you 😎👌 new follower 🎉

Grind the landing gear past the blue line and re weld to learn cockpit, grind most of the interior out but leave the conveyor connected to h2o and survival kit. Get a cockpit and gyro built, take 2 of the atmosphere thrusters and put one facing back and one pointing left. Click the show hidden button and turn the other 2 on... now you can fly slightly tilted to the left and stop by leaning back (using horizon) find cobalt, iron and nickel ore found together on earth and make your base but start with a landing gear, you can turn your base into a bigger ship!

[Holey]

Wow. This is amazing. Can u please make it a series?

[DanielConstantinoS]

In 20m I learned more than my 10h gameplay and F1 videos. Insane.

[torthompson]

This is a great video man! Keep up the series there needs to be more content like this for new players!

[blob]

I love the way you explain. Thanks for this guide dude

[nathanhadfield]

Yes def agree with others, you need to start or continue with a solo series a self made story would be cool, something simple like gotta get back to the Alien planet for a hyper drive replacement.

[butchvandyk]

good video... dont stop love the beginning where you work harder than the middle game

[AndresaLiorcoiloin]

Shift+mmb to add build queue items to assembler while looking at access port if you don't want to go into the internal menu

[cryptictundra]

Great video man.... so a basic refinery when processing ores but a survival kit when processing stone? Once you have your first mining vessel you wont really need stone at all right?
Its been a while sense I have played, so I am unsure as to what has changed ... last time I played I was watching a Splitsie video on mining ships made from the drop pod.

[Raienkotetsu]

I would love to see more of this series here. :D

[bloodysath]

Nice Video. BTW the Basic Refinery actually only got 70% yield compared to the Survival Kit or the full Refinery
