Pressing down on the D-pad once in space now allows you to access the Galaxy Map. Once you have a new Antimatter Housing, you can combine it with the Antimatter to make a Warp Cell to give your starship just enough fuel for a Warp Jump - now you can finally see what the universe has to offer. If you should happen to accidentally use, drop, or sell the Antimatter, you’ll be directed back to the Space Station where the powers that be will grant you another chance by making a random lifeform give you a new one. The Antimatter Housing only requires 50 Ferrite Dust and 30 Oxygen, which is easily found no matter where you are from the rocks and red plants. Luckily, they can’t climb, so you can sit on the roof and dart to the egg clusters and jetpack out of danger.

Of course, the second you break one, you’ll be surrounded by Biological Horrors that can attack fast and viciously and rip you to shreds if you aren’t careful. Note: Before leaving the site, it’s worth knowing that the various whispering eggs can be broken open to reveal Larval Cores, and they sell for a LOT of money. The only other thing you’ll need is a place to store the Antimatter - which you’ll also get a blueprint for. Reading the log will give you a free Antimatter - a crucial component in making Warp Cell fuel. Inside, interact with the terminal and wipe off all the goop (its junk, and you can sell it as soon as you find a place to do so). Follow it to find an Abandoned Building, overgrown with really weird slime and growths, and surrounded by clusters of whispering eggs. Once you fly out into space, a new broadcast signal will appear - send out a scan pulse and you’ll get a new marker to head towards. Lucky for you, someone or something is prepared to help you out. Whichever method you choose, once you have everything you need, install the technology on your ship to equip the Hyperdrive - but of course you’ll still need fuel to be able to jump to a new star system. It’s not exactly reliable, but it can save some money while exploring. You can also randomly find Microprocessors by searching the Cargo Drops that dot the landscape (they appear as treasure chests on your scanner). You’ll have two options on how best acquire them: The most straightforward approach is just to amass a bunch of resources and return to the Space Station to buy Microprocessors using money gained from selling goods (The items you got from the Cargo Pods should come in handy here). To craft a Hyperdrive from a blueprint, you’ll need the following:Ĭhromatic Metal just needs some refined Copper, which you already have the tools to extract - you’ll just need to find one or two deposits to amass 250 Copper, and have pack plenty of spare Ferrite Dust to keep your laser running.Īs for the Microprocessors, you can’t exactly harvest them. Just make sure you leave quickly as opening pods will release a cloud of radiation that can eat up your shielding quickly.

You’ll need to use your Terrain Manipulator to dig into the earth to find these crashed pods, but each of them has a superconductive lock that only takes a bit of Sodium Nitrate to unlock, and you can get very lucrative items inside - like Unstable Gel. Note: Before leaving the crashed frigate - be sure to look around with your scanner: You’ll see icons that mark buried Cargo Pods. Look around for a pod with the transmission that was broadcasting - and request the logs to find a Hyperdrive Blueprint - the item you need to finally leave the galaxy your in and start travelling across the universe. Make sure to land in the circle that glows green when you slow down near it, as it won’t expend fuel to launch for areas like these. Heading back down to the planet, you’ll come across a huge crashed frigate, with debris everywhere. Ask around the various life forms to find one that has a mysterious message to you, sending you back to your base planet with the location of a Distress Signal.
