As you exit your pod, walk towards the Life Support panel, look to the left, and put on the pressure suit.
Once the pressure suit is on, walk over to the Power Supply panel, on the other side of the Life Support panel. Open it and click on the solar panels, and capacitor. Within a few seconds your stations lights should come online.

Your helmet flashlight you can activate by pressing V by default. This will drain your jetpacks battery, but is rechargeable
You can also raise your helmet by pressing H

You can close any menu with either ESC or Tab

There are a few ways to go about doing this, but before you leave make sure you have your suit on and your visor down!
Start by going to the door of your choice. There will be a door latch that will allow you to force opent he door to outerspace. Hold shift next to a wall while pulling the leaver to negate the suction of space!

Your next goal is up to you! I reccomend you find your ship!
Press X to open your Visors Radar, to help you locate your ship
This ship will take you everywhere, as well as help you transport parts, and station modules back home. (Modules attach to the back of it)

Going up to any cryopod, you can click the invite button and select any player you would like to
add to your struggle, you may also click the unlock button so anyone who is on your station but started somewhere else, they can take control of a pod. Currently you can only start with one other friend, but you can expand your station with lifesupport modules, that have 4 additional cryopods each.


When hitting Esc, you can exit game or log out, once you have left the game, your character will remain in the exact same position you left in, including gear worn. I would suggest logging out in a cryopod as currently it seems to be bullet proof. YOU CAN DIE WHILE LOGGED OUT

This game is hard, very hard, and learning to dock is essential.
The first things you can dock right away are your ship, and the airlock module. If you are learning to dock, I recomend going inside the airlock, and obtaining the EVA suit first. It will supply you with oxygen and RCS thrusters for longer then the standard suit (See Suit section).

When docking you can press R to select the door of the module you are docking. T+Mousewheel will select between which module/Ship you are trying to dock too, and once selected, left and right mouse buttons will select which door on the module you would like to dock to.
If you do not see the orange ring, try switching camera views back and forth or the wrong target is selected. You cannot dock without the orange ring showing
Glitch: Sometimes the orange ring will appear very dark Blue, but will still work.

Your Jetpack has 3 stats. Power, Fuel, and Oxygen.
Power lowers the longer you have your suitlight on (V), and can be recharged at the Recharge station by leaving it on there for a little bit.
This charge station also charges Rifles, and power packs for the drill.


To fill your Jetpack's Fuel and Oxygen. Attach it to the Cargo Panel

Once attached, open the panel
There are a three tabs on the far right (Cargo | Refining | Slot 01)
Slot 01 is the object attached to the Cargo Panel


There are Three Tabs in the middle of the menu (Raw | Refined | Crafting)
While in your station you have Oxygen and Nitro in your Refined Tab
From there, you can drag Oxygen, and Nitro into your Jetpack to refill it.


NOTE: You can pull Oxygen from your life support systems, but it is not reccomended.



Using points from above, attach the canister to the Cargo panel.
Open, and select Slot 01, and press unload. It will unload into the RAW tab. From there you can select Refining, and drag the Resource into it, converting it into refined materials.
NOTE: Some people claim there refining does not work

Holding shift locks you to a close object and will also stabalize your left and right roll when not close to an object.

Q and E will roll you left and right respectively

Keep yourself at a slow pace, RCS fuel is important, and hitting an object to fast will kill you

The ships nav systems are sometimes hard to manage. Ive noticed a bug where once you warp somewhere if you do not turn off your ftl drive it will drain all the power on your ship. So make sure to turn off your FTL right after a jump or when not in use.

The buttons on the dash of the ship control its systems. Once you have Navigation open, you can warp between stations and orbits by right clicking.
Glitch: timer will set to 0 = Click swtich to parent to fix.

Once you have picked your destination, you will have to select your warp core that you would like to use (multiple for bigger jumps) and hit initalize.

You will then have to position your ship in line with the warp and click at the 5 second mark.

Pressing the scan button at the top will allow you to see more information and more ships in your console.

Glitch: If you try messaging someone while warping, it will cancel. Unless you hit tab first.
