Seriously this is a lot of fun. It is absolutely a Bethesda game through and through. Not sure what people were expecting. I’m glad it’s not like No Man’s Sky because that game bored the shit out of me almost immediately.

Thoughts?

    Question to those who may know: I swapped my crew habitat for one of the 3x1 habitats last night, and noticed afterwards that the new habitat did not have a research station. I tried switching it to the engineering version of the hab, but no luck. Anyone know how I can get it back?

      Try going to different shipyards as each have different habs to choose from, this also includes different planet cities’ landing zones where you can talk to a technician.

      There are habs, for example on Mars’ moon Demios’ shipyard, that are specifically for research.

        Awesome! I was wondering what I was missing. So you buy your different stations and whatnot at vendors, and that’s not in the build screen, right? I assume there’s some kind of fabricator that I can also buy and add to my ship, but they don’t really do a great job of explaining any of that haha.

          Sort of. So like when you land at New Atlantis, there is a terminal to your right when you are walking away from your ship and into the city. There is usually a guy standing here with a hard hat and a vest on. He’s a ship technician or something like that title. If you speak to him, you can select the option to view/edit your ship and in that menu, you can make edits to your ship and that’s where you will find the different fabs to choose from.

          When you are on the habs, do take note that on some of them, you can cycle to the left and right to access more options. So like a 1x3 hab has the option for an All in One access, the next is a Research hab, the next is a science hab, the next is armory, and so on and so forth.

          Each city will have a technician like this you can speak to and make these changes. But you can also go to shipyards like the one on Mars’ moon Deimos where a space station is in orbit and talk to the guy to either buy new ships or make changes to your ship just like the technician from earlier.

          Keep in mind that every city and space station shipyard have different options to choose from. So you may like the habs from Deimos but you like the landing gear selection in Neon.

      I had this all down pat yesterday because I looked up a guide just on what all the pieces look like on the inside and what extra shit they have that the game doesn’t tell you on the build screen, and now I can’t remember which one it said had all of the things in it… 😩

      One of the 2x1 hab modules has basically everything in it, while the rest have nothing, and it’s not available to buy at every port.

        I’ll have to try some other ports out! I’m still pretty early in the game, just thought I had missed something somewhere lol. I’ll add glad hab back onto my ship!

          Yeah; but that’s not the one that has everything. 😮‍💨 It has a nav table, a bed and some crew seats. The “workshop” hab has the weapon, suit and fabrication table, while the “science” has the pharma lab, research lab and a galley. With those two, you should have everything as far as extras go that do anything super useful.
