This guide is copied from the old wiki and needs rewritten/links fixed The actual guide is under construction. In the meantime, here are some links to useful pages for new players.

How to fly a ship[edit | edit source]

Piloting Guide

I've fallen (from my ship) and can't get up!

Use the tractor beam at the bottom of your ship.

While standing directly underneath the glass block, hold your clock and right click or jump. You will teleport to the top of the glass block.

Using tools[edit | edit source]

The starter vesta includes an item charger and generator. The generator accepts uranium, redstone, or coal and generates power which can be used to recharge your power drill.

How to go to space[edit | edit source]

Move your ship to the world height limit (y=384).

Your ship will enter space if it passes this limit.

While piloting your ship, holding your clock and looking up, sneak (shift fly). Your ship will move upwards.

How to jump to hyperspace[edit | edit source]

Put 2 chetherite in each of the hoppers of the hyperdrive

Move 1000 blocks AWAY from any planets (gravity wells prevent hyperspace travel)

Make sure your direction of travel DOES NOT intersect the 1000 block gravity well radius (or your ship will fail to jump)

/jump <destination> OR /jump <x> <z>

How to travel to other star systems[edit | edit source]

/route add <destination in other system> OR /route add <name of system> <x> <z>

If you are in space and piloting a ship, your travel path will be listed on the right sidebar.

/jump auto ; repeat until you reach the destination.

/jump clear or /jump undo to cancel

How to claim land[edit | edit source]

/settlement create - creates a new settlement in unclaimed land on a planet

/station create - creates a claim in space in a defined radius

Settlements

How to join someone[edit | edit source]

Ask in chat and/or Discord.

Use the personal transporter tool to teleport to another player one time

How to make new ships[edit | edit source]

You can make your own custom ship designs on the creative server

Once you have a new design, save it with /blueprint save

You can print save blueprints in survival with the ship factory.

Nations[edit | edit source]

Once you have a settlement, you can create a nation, which allows you to recruit other settlements, participate in station sieges, and claim more territories on other planets.
