Bases are structures similar to Capital Vessels, but can not move. Because bases are available earlier in the game and many useful items can be placed in bases, having a base is mandatory for the progression of the game. Many naturally occurring structures like wrecks at the crash site are registered as bases. The player can claim coreless bases by placing his core or create a new one with a Base Starter.

Many Alien POIs often are bases with an alien core. Interaction with these bases may depend on or have an effect on your reputation with the faction it belongs to. Note that Story POIs which may also belong to a faction often have an Admin core make them indestructible.

Building a Base[ | ]

To advance in the game it is mandatory to construct a base. Without a base, only Hover Vessels can be build. Many advanced items like the Short Range Warp Drive require at least a Small Constructor which must be placed on a base rather than on terrain.

Craft a Base Starter
Place it
Add blocks

In early game, Wood Blocks allow the player to cheaply expand the base. Note that Wood Blocks are easily destroyed and shouldn't be used in large bases.

For a base to function it needs power which can either be provided by solar panels, generators or both of them combined. For a solar setup

Add small solar panels or solar panels to your base, up to a total of 15
Add any number of solar capacitors

For a fuel based setup

Add any number of small generators, large generators T1 or large generators T2
Add any number of small fuel tanks, fuel tanks or large fuel tanks
Fill the fuel tanks with bio fuel, fuel packs, large fuel packs or fusion cells by either pressing P or walking up to one

NOTE:Generators only produce the amount of energy needed and consume fuel accordingly. This means you can decrease fuel consumption with added solar panels.

Base Attacks[ | ]

Bases owned by one or more players might be attacked by alien factions with a reputation of unfriendly or hostile and headquarters in the same sector if any player is in proximity. Destroying the headquarters' core or raising your reputation stops the spawning of new base attacks, but won't stop ongoing ones. In a base's statistics menu the approximate time of the next base attack by a faction and its headquarters can is shown.

When a base attack happens some events will trigger sequentially starting with a notification telling the player that a base attacks has started. A limited amount of enemies belonging to the attacking faction will appear. The attack ends as soon as all attackers are defeated or the bases core is destroyed and the player will get notified of the result. The strength of the base attacks depends on the size of the base, its energy use and the reputation with the attacking faction.

Note that attackers drop their normal loot, making base attacks a source of resources.

Farming[ | ]

Growing Plots can be placed as part of bases allowing for farms. Plants need to be in an oxygenated area with a Plant Grow Light above. For more information see Farming.

Bases belonging to Alien Factions can be found and visited.

-==Functional Parts ==
+== Base Attacks ==
+Bases owned by one or more players might be attacked by alien factions with a reputation of unfriendly or hostile and headquarters in the same sector if any player is in proximity. Destroying the headquarters' core or raising your reputation stops the spawning of new base attacks, but won't stop ongoing ones. In a base's statistics menu the approximate time of the next base attack by a faction and its headquarters can is shown.
-Following blocks are essential for a useful base-
-*[[Large Constructor]] to construct advance/complex items
-*[[Oxygen Station (CV,BA)|Oxygen Station]] to fill up suit oxygen
-*Oxygen Tank ([[Large Oxygen Tank|large]] or [[Small Oxygen Tank|Small]]) for source of oxygen for Oxygen Station
-*[[Food Processor]] to craft foods and medical items
-*Turrets (see [[#Maintaining and Defending Base|Defending Base]]) for defending the base
-*[[Growing Plot]] and [[Plant Grow Light]] to grow foods.
-* [[Fridge (T1)|Fridges]] for keep the perishable foods fresh.
- NOTE:All the blocks mentioned above will not be available from the start. The player need to unlock them via [[Tech Tree]]
-There are many more functional and decorational blocks for the base, which can be used to increase functionality of the base or make it look better. A complete list can be found [[:Category:BA|here]]. Parts which can be attached in a BA are marked by a '''red dot''' in the upper left corner in constructor menu.
+When a base attack happens some events will trigger sequentially starting with a notification telling the player that a base attacks has started. A limited amount of enemies belonging to the attacking faction will appear. The attack ends as soon as all attackers are defeated or the bases core is destroyed and the player will get notified of the result. The strength of the base attacks depends on the size of the base, its energy use and the reputation with the attacking faction.
-==Space Station==
-Space Stations are bases made in space. They are identical to the planet bases in every way except in space there is no gravity. There is also no oxygen inside of a Space Station, so it is necessary to have your helmet on and a source of oxygen readily available at all times. Space Stations need a {{item link|Gravity Generator}} to create artificial gravity in space.
-*Find all the pre-made in-game space stations [[:Category:Space Station|here]]
-*Space Stations are direction-locked to the sun: Always facing the sun with the same side.
+Note that attackers drop their normal loot, making base attacks a source of resources.
-==Maintaining and Defending Base==
-*The core denotes the ownership of the base. It is also the primary target of the attacking drones, so it needs to be very heavily protected. If a core is destroyed, the entire base is no longer owned by you, and anyone could re-core it to claim it.
-*Zirax base attack troopers will attempt to 'hack' your core and claim it for themselves during their base attacks, be sure to stop them! The range on this is about 8-10 meters, so tuck your core away!
-*The base needs power to function. Generators give that power and the fuel in fuel tanks supply fuel to the generator. Without power all the devices will shut down. Keep the fuel tank under close watch so they don't run out of fuel. You see see how much power time you have left in the Statistics tab of the control panel.
-*Place turrets to defend the base from attacking Drones and to clear out the surrounding area from hostile mobs.
