Introduction to the Game

Please refer to this video to get a summary and introduction to the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8s0qxAhqUME

The video will have a more well rounded explanation about the background and bigger picture of what's going on.

The sections below outlines some of the key points, please note this will be a work in progress page.

Selecting a server
Unless you're spending money, once a server has been open for more than a few weeks, you will greatly struggle or not be able to catch up to other players.

Once you've completed the tutorial follow this guide on how you'd transfer server: How To Transfer Servers

If the server population is medium or higher, I would strongly advise waiting for a new server to appear before starting the game.

A new server will appear around 3 days after the newest current server reaches "Very High" population

Initial Focus
Two of the main ways you'll be developing your floating base, is buildings and research.

You should first focus on growing your population, this increases your EC (Energy Credit) income, the main currency in the game.

Buildings to Focus:

 * Population → Residence
 * Resource → Organic Farm

Research to Focus:

 * Station → Population → Labor
 * Station → Population → Technician
 * Station → Population → Researcher
 * Station → Population → Expert
 * Resources → Basic → Organic Farm Maintenance / Food Production

Side Quests
When you tap on the quest(shown below) you'll see a list of side quests. Some of them will have an icon that looks like a person. This increases your population.
