Beginners Tips and Tricks:
--------------------------

-=Tips and Tricks=-
1. On creating a new game, you will see the difficulty setting for the current game, 
this will be set to medium by default, it is not obvious that clicking this opens 
up a lot of other options for the game. Things like xp gain and ore abundance.

2. At some point you will build your own base. Pressing Y is the final thing you 
must do to turn your base on, this again is not obvious to new players and can be 
very frustrating, this is the same key you press to turn on and off ships. 

3. Pressing F5 spawns a remote control drone, this lets you build taller than you 
can normally reach but even better you can drill with this drone which will help 
you not get stuck inside of holes, also if you ever get killed you drop all your 
stuff, once you respawn you will be able to stay away from whatever killed you but 
use your drone to pick up your belongings from safety. 

4. Any turret in the game requires an ammo storage of some kind connected to the 
ship or base you have built. Pressing tab has a lot of menus at the top of the 
screen, one of them looks like a bunch of sliders, it's on the far right, clicking 
this lets you access all the containers and equipment in the base or ship you are 
in, additionally looking at any device (for example a light" and pressing P lets 
you access the aforementioned menu quickly and selecting "devices) from this menu 
will highlight the exact item you are looking at which will let you for example 
shut off a single specific light but this also works for other things like thrusters. 

5. Finally one of the best things that is not obvious to new players is the blue 
print factory. If you want to test a vehicle or just learn how to build a good 
vehicle you can start a new game in creative, press H to bring up the creative 
menu, build your base or ship or whatever and then press (ctrl-o or alt-o I forget 
sorry) while looking at the ship or base and this will let you save it as a blueprint.

Now back in your survival world you can press tab, (there is a hotkey but I forget) 
and select the icon that looks like a spaceship, and then select the blueprint you 
want to spawn, then select "to factory" and now there will be a box in the center 
to drop items into, all the required materials to build the blueprint and spawn it 
will be shown in that menu and you place them into that box in the middle. Once 
done there is a timer that shows how long it will take for the factory to build 
the blueprint and you will be notified when it is done.

A tip to help the factory build faster is instead of placing raw resources into 
the factory you can place whole blocks, even junk guns can go into it, putting 
already crafted items into the factory such as thrusters and generators will lower 
the time it takes to build the blueprint, this means if you loot a large thruster 
or generator you don't have to break that item down first, you can just put it 
into the factory.

-=Advanced Tips and Tricks=-
At some point you will want to experiment with weights and volume (found in the 
difficulty settings) now I propose a scenario to you, you've just cleared a POI 
you want to make sure you've gotten all the loot but you don't want to break the 
whole POI down to find all the hidden stashes, what to do? Place your own core! 
Now when you press p you will have access to all the containers in the POI (to 
access the hidden containers you use the drop down menu from inside of the non 
hidden containers). Additionally placing a core lets you use a multitool to pick 
up whole blocks instead of just salvaging for raw materials.

But Wait! You've got weights and value turned on and you've got too much stuff 
to haul back in one go, well what you can do is connect to a specific container 
(the little plug icon you see when looking inside of a container) and then drag 
those heavy items into your yellow hotbar, now open the factory and place them 
into it. Warning! Do NOT place any items into the factory you are not willing 
to part with as there is no way to get them back other than building a blueprint 
in the factory that contains those items but some items such as hand guns cannot 
be returned no matter what.

But Wait?! Why do I even want to use the connection function? well you should 
have noticed by this point that some items you need for your base are too heavy 
to place from your personal inventory, well this is where connecting to an 
inventory is needed, once you are connected pressing T switches the hotbar from 
your inventory and the connected container which will be big enough to hold the 
items you normally would not be able you place.

Repair Pad Guide:
-----------------

-=Simple Tips for the Repair Pad=-
Potential Issues and Fixes
Other Options for Repairing Ships

-=Simple Tips for the Repair Pad* 
* “Repair Blocks” function only repairs blocks that are damaged. 
  It will not replace any missing ones.
* “Repair to Template” function will only replace missing blocks. 
  It will not repair damaged blocks

-=Potential Issues and Fixes=-
* Repair block cannot be obstructed. Make sure there is not a block placed 
  on top of it covering it for example glass.
* Repair area must be clear for the entire blueprint. Make sure no ground 
  is above the repair block or structures.
* Ships have a bounding box around them that expends about 5-10 blocks beyond
  the wingtips, nose and tail of the BP.
* Make sure the ship center is above the repair pad and you have no docked ships.
* Make sure the ship has a repair template. Every time you make a change make 
  sure to hit “save repair template”. If the ship was spawned from the BP 
  factory it will be restored to that state unless you saved an updated repair 
  template.

-=Other Options for Repairing Ships* 
* Make a repair station in space to ensure no blocking objects.
* Station services (When damage is minor or you have enough credits to spare 
  this is the proffered method to repairing ships).



How to Make a POI in which You Cannot Add Your Own Core:
--------------------------------------------------------
How to make a POI without a faction (with a white name) in which you cannot 
add your own core (like Burial Chamber or Elders Tomb).

-=It’s not so complicated=-
* Build your POI (with a core).
* When you are well and truly done, remove the core.
* The final step is to use the faction command to assign the structure to 
  a non-player faction.
* Toggle the di command and use the the info panel while pointing at the structure 
  to get its structure ID, and finally.
* Use faction entity [FactionAbbrev] [StructID] to assign it to some non-player 
  faction.
