The Backpack also contains the Research Catalog, which the player uses to unlock new crafting blueprints. The Terrain Tool, which also has three slots that can be used for storage, hangs from the side of the Backpack when not in use. The Backpack functions as the player's inventory and HUD, with two quick-use slots, eight storage slots, a basic 3D printer, a small internal power supply (shown by a column of yellow segments), and a built-in oxygen tank (shown as a horizontal blue bar). Other than the Terrain Tool, the Backpack is the astroneer's main tool. The astroneer also has the option to research and craft upgrades to the Terrain Tool, which can be plugged and unplugged at will. Certain resources, such as titanite or clay, can be smelted or combined into more advanced materials. These stacks can then be snapped into slots on the astroneer's backpack, storage units, research chambers, etc. Resources, such as organic material, quartz, lithium, ammonium, and resin, are neatly packaged by the Terrain Tool into convenient stacks.

As of the game's full release, an " oxygenator" is required to provide extended reach of oxygen when tethering.Įvery astroneer has a Terrain Tool, which allows the player to gather resources and reshape the landscape. When low on oxygen, the astroneer recharges by staying near craftable tethers, which can be chained over long distances to prevent suffocation. For example, ammonium can be converted into hydrazine fuel for an astroneer's spacecraft, or used in its raw form to create a limited-use thruster. The player controls an astronaut (called an astroneer) who navigates on foot, by rover, through teleportation, or by spacecraft.Ĭraftable items include rovers, buggies, tractors, spaceships, storage silos, atmospheric condensers, research chambers, component smelters, batteries, generators, turbines, and solar panels. Its open world planets, wherein terraforming can take place, are subject to procedural generation, with the exception of some planet specific resources.
