Adding to Galatoni's fine list of advice.

Once you find a safe place to stop and think(!) lol

* TAB opens your inventory. In there is a small constructor which needs to be placed in a quick slot and equipped and put in place on the ground to use. Once deployed F enters the crafting page. shift-f picks the constructor up again, it's a portable device.
* Once in the crafting view, place ingredients into the middle window. The things you can make are on the right, each tab has a different category (if you accidentally filter this area then some items may not show up, clear the filter).
* Drag the thing you want to make into the Q e.g. Motor Bike Construction kit goes into the ingredient window then the motor bike blueprint into the Q. Provided all the necessary parts are in the middle window the final product will start building automatically once you......
*Switch the constructor to ON! (top right).

Other stuff:

* Come on TS before you join the server and ask if it's night or day where the clan has made camp. It's going to be easier to meet up if there is half a chance it's daytime.
* When you are hurtling to the ground on first login and land you take everything from your inventory (with the take all arrow left button), look around for a mine. If one is nearby, leg it. You can equip your drill and dig down into it to survive. From there you can compose yourself, see what's in the inventory and make your bike and some basic survival stuff. If it's a magnesium mine then your quids in, you can make bullets.
* If you die, re-spawn nearby and there will be a waypoint under 100m from you where you backpack is lying. Scout for the creature that killed you and if it's still around, lure it off into the distance and circle back and get your backpack. (You move fast but stamina will run out over time!)
* U takes off your helmet. You don't need it on the starting planet, if you do use it you will use up O2 in the system which you might need later for diving.
* J switches on your jet pack, space makes you fly (rather than just jump/ hop), you can sprint and fly in bursts to move fast away from enemies. Do this in equal measures and you shouldn't run out of stamina or jet power.
* Don't drive your bike into water, you will be thrown off (maybe not if you are wearing a helmet) and the bike will continue onwards. You'll have to dive for it and shift-f to pick it up.
* There are large white plants that look like eggs or pods of some sort. Them is good! They give you health and food but also are a poison antidote.

In addition to the excellent advice already meted out ...

Please build a base a minimum of 100m from your nearest neighbour. This is close enough to get help quickly but far enough not to fall victim of the protected area around everyone's base.

Ah I think I see where I may have gone wrong. Each time I've died I've restarted and crashed my little pod to the ground without collecting my old goods.

With regards to help, I try and shy away from other player bases. Not only do I not know what will happen, but I don't want to tread on toes. If someone is set up and then suddenly I appear and start taking resources, I'd feel a bit douchey.

Could someone please delete my data so I can start fresh. Character name is ross. Thanks!

It's actually not that difficult to start somewhere less congested with other people if you can get past the first few days and builds. And you can always get nearly 100% of your gear back each time you die anyway, just don't log off without first recovering your pack.

Mugi this is a team based survival game we are supost to survive together, there is a big lake where most people are putting there bases around. I am currently on my own on the other side of be planet and am more then happy for people to join me over there, right now I have most the resources because it's just me who lives in the area. Don't feel like your stepping on people's toes aslong as your base is about 100m minimum from another players base you should be fine to move and make a base where ever you want. Normally if we are on ts feel free to join, or use in game Chat to ask for help I am more then sure that anyone would be happy to help you.

The start of this game is the hardest part of the game so far once your set up its a bit more easier unless you go looking for a harder time. A word of warning is avoid all buildings unless your know there friendly or empty, avoid any building on the map called drone bases or skyports. When your in our faction you will be able to see all other faction players who are online on the map Aswell as people's bases. You can see the lake where everyone is set up so if you want to join them you can just stay away from the island in the middle of the lake because that is going to be a community project.

The idea of this game is survival and it's not to hard to do this when you know how. Some people will moan about this game saying its to hard but it's like anything else once you learn it then it's easy to survive. One point I have seen and heard is poisoning, if you went to a random plant and started to eat it plants ... Your probably going to get sick. If I go off to Africa and walk around eating plants I will proberly get sick but you learn what you can eat and how to heal yourself, after all is it a survival game. Sick to it and you will get the hang of this game soon, if oldie has time he might be able to reset you but always go back for your bag and the items in your drop pod you need them else you will find yourself having a very very hard time setting up

So can someone with more knowledge explain to me how I keep my fresh items from spoiling overnight?

I stocked my generator up with all slots full of Promethium Power Cells and left it powered on when I logged off.

All cells were spent when I logged on just now and all my hard earned food and other fresh things spoiled.

I'm 100% certain I was running the generator when I logged off as we spoke about this earlier (Lib).

Any clues lads?

Are you saying you want your profile deleted so you can start again?
