Hi guys, today I have some tips for beginners in Astroneer If you haven't played the game yet and want to see what its all about then check out my lets play series linked in the description and if you enjoy this video then don't forget to hit that like button and subscribe to the channel. For now though however lets get to the tips


Take care when extending your base

When you need to make extensions to your base such as smelters and printers you can build directly off the habitat, This can cause you problems later on though as there will not be enough room to build everything you need directly around the habitat. I recommend building out a couple of times and then webbing off from there so you will always have room to expand more.

Raise the Ground

As you will know almost immediately you can destroy the Terrain with your tool. The game doesn't make it too obvious but you can also raise the ground by holding alt and level it by holding control.

Link vehicles up

In the same way that you can link your vehicles up to your base to charge you can link them to each other. Once they are linked they will stay that way meaning that you can tow a truck or a rover as a trailer. It will also share power with the driving vehicle essentially giving you an extra battery.

Save Space on your vehicle

The rear coupling on the truck can be used as an inventory slot for most items. Save space by attaching your solar panel here. On the rover the front and rear couplings can be used for this purpose.

Craft your seat separately

If you use the vehicle bay to add a seat to your vehicle it will be permanently attached. If you make the seat in the printer and attach it though it will be removable at a later date if you ever want to re purpose the vehicle for anything. Such as a trailer as we just mentioned.

Store extra resources in your pack

It you run out of room for resources in your pack and feel the need to haul a little bit more back there are 2 extra slots that can be used at the top on the sides of the pack. They can only be accessed when zoomed into the pack and are designed for solar panels and the like but they can hold any resource. You can also store a resource in the craft slot of your backpack as long as you have a recipe the requires that resource selected.

Tethers to the ceiling

When Exploring caves why try placing your tethered on walls and ceilings, this will stop them from getting in your way when you are running around.


Tether from vehicles.

You can actually Tether to vehicles in the same way you do the habitat. when you drive away the tethers will de-activate but will become live again once you bring a vehicle within range.

Dig up crashed ships

There are numerous crashed ships to find on Terran, When you find one try excavating a bit, you should find some resources and a seat that can be used on a vehicle, These ships are often home to an Unknown too.


Reusable resource veins

If you look around a bit you will find one of these resource veins. they will recharge with their respective resource over time and can be mined repeatedly. Its useful to remember where the close ones to your base are when you start exhausting the initially easy to find resources.

Astroneer is a sandbox game. There is no set storyline or necessary goal to achieve, and the player is free to explore the land and play as they wish. However, there is still a survival element; as the player has basic needs that must be met. The player's oxygen levels drop overtime, and must be replenished. A lack of this will kill the player.[2]
The game has no enemies or dangerous creatures, but there are still dangerous occurrences that will set the player back by killing them or damaging their possessions. Some of the obstacles the player will have to face are dangerous flora, dust storms, falling from high locations. The game additionally lacks player versus player combat, which means that players do not have the ability to fight and kill one another (except via use of the terrain editing tool to bury or make another player fall).[2]
While there is no mandatory goal or mission to achieve, the main idea of the game is to colonize celestial bodies and harvest resources.
