Getting started
From the first loot box to your first flight. The guide walks you through it step by step.

A new pilot does not start with a fitted ship. The launcher walks you through the first steps and only then lets you into the game. Until the guide is finished, the menu is locked to the current step.
In the launcher
- Open the starter box. It holds Q-Credits and Quantium for your first purchases.
- Walk through the shop. Buy two lasers, a shield and a repair bot (RB-I).
- Buy ammo. Lasers do not fire without ammo, and normal rockets are bought separately.
- Claim your ship. The starter Nostara is free and goes straight into your hangar.
- Fit the ship in the hangar. Lasers into the laser slots, the shield into a reactor, the bot into an Extra slot.
- Look at the galaxy. You will see where your base is and where the gates lead.
In the game
On the first launch the game shows a short controls intro, then seven tutorial quests: hunting and scrap collection, a trip to the Scrap-yard, your first drone, your first upgrade, your first skill, a patrol on map x1 and buying the hauler in the Scrap-yard. Quests are accepted at the quest station of your home base. The main quest line follows.

Shield and repairs
Your shield starts recharging 6 seconds after the last hit you take. It keeps recharging while you shoot. HP is repaired only by a repair bot (RB) in an Extra slot of the ship, also starting 6 seconds after the last hit. HP repair pauses while you are shooting. Without a bot HP does not repair at all. A loadout takes only one bot.
Death and ship repair
A destroyed ship stays destroyed until you repair it. On the death screen you choose where to repair:
| Repair | HP after repair | With a kit | Without a kit |
|---|---|---|---|
| At the base | 3 % | 1 kit + 0 Quantium | 15 Quantium |
| At the nearest portal | 10 % | 1 kit + 20 Quantium | 40 Quantium |
| On the spot | 25 % | 1 kit + 60 Quantium | 100 Quantium |
Repair kits are crafted in the Scrap-yard workshop. The starter ship is repaired at the base for free. If you cannot afford a repair, you can switch to the starter ship and repair the destroyed one later in the hangar. In a galaxy gate and in the Scrap-yard only the base repair is available. A destroyed ship loses part of its cargo, which stays on the spot.
