To properly build up a base, 3 basic types of ores are required in the system:
| Name | Use case |
|---|---|
| Common ore | Building Portable Storage and Portable Refinery |
| Metal-rich ore | Building Refuge |
| Carbonaceous ore | Building Portable Printer |
All of these are required to refine for components which builds the Network Node which is the core to your base.
This means if you do not have all 3 ore types within your starting system, it would be a good idea to self destruct and land somewhere else.
| Name | Use case |
|---|---|
| Convoy debris / Mangled convoy | Easy source of salvage parts and mummified clones |
| Installation wreckage | Easy NPC to obtain Feral Data |
