Be careful pirates and other factions will attack randomly and can destroy/damage your buildings so turrets are a must
Does that include Earth? All I want is a Red Rocket and Earth seems the best spot because no ever goes there.
@@chadharger9323I hope they don't go to earth that's my main base with all my stuff
Wow this sounds cool cant wait 👍
All I know is they will come and attack I was 15/20 mins in building my first base on mars and a small elliptic sqaud attacked me it was cool but not easy to defend and I had to fully repair some stuff it was actually pretty cool
Good, I’d be boring if nothing ever happened there
Little tip, when you're hitting resources with your cutter, right click to make the focus smaller and you'll zap resources in a fraction of the time.
Wait really.
I gotta try that
You're kidding me?! No way?!
What?!
@@NOTWxOUTCASTx tested it. He's right. I feel stupid
LT for Xbox. It focuses the beam
As a follower of your Satisfactory content and fellow anticipator of Starfield outpost building, I'm very excited to see a TotalXclipse outpost guide. Can't wait to see your further videos.
Ditto to this!
Thanks for this, either I somehow missed a tutorial in game or the game doesn't explain ANY of this. Helped a lot.
Wayyyy you’re doing Starfield. Been watching you because of satisfactory. Glad to see you’re making these videos.
I've been flying from system to system, scanning worlds, landing on various planets just to find the right planet to build on. I'm super picky, the world has to look just right, not baren, would prefer having it on an ocean coast or a forest, found a nice snowy mountain area on the coast that I finally think feels right. Really look forward to modders making planets more full, would like some dense forests on some
A feeder outpost won't need to be visited once you set things up.
@EvanFox3 they are different for all of us. I found a great planet that's got some heavy forest, bit it's got a lot of aggressive creatures :(
@@EvanFox3 Nesoi in Olympus-System and Jemison in Alpha Centauri-System are nice!
You are not flying. You are fast traveling. There is no space flying or exploration.
What planet did you find the snowy mountain on the coast on?
Outpost building goes more in depth than i thought holy this is gonna take hours if not days
one thing i learned from building outposts is that it takes two He3 extractors in order to make a self-sustaining loop using the He3 fueled generator. Tried it with only one and the system ran out. Im thinking you can probably sustain 2 generators with 3 extractors if you need more power. My tank rests at 63% running what i have now. Thanks for the video, cant wait to learn more.
You just need one - just pipe it into a storage container instead of outputting directly into the generator.
The game has some weird interactions when you go direct from extractor to processor. Extractor > storage > processor is definitely the happy path they went for when they built everything
@Drick10 oh sweet. I'll double check my outputs and adjust as ness.
I've been waiting for a video like this. The other youtubers who tried to make them were confusing so I was waiting on a video from a fellow Satisfactory man to post a good outpost video. 😂
Thank you thank you! This was so helpful!!
Fantastic guide, thank you!
I loved settlement building in Fallout 4, so I am excited !
In the overhead building mode you can zoom in closer to your buildings by moving the mouse up for down
Thanks bro I was holding off in case there was a quest to go along with it, but now I know there's not, I can start building !
You are the best youtuber at explaining these outpost fundamentals, thanks very much 💯🙏
Only 10 hrs in and he figured out way more than I could. Bravo good sir, bravo
😂😂I was wondering why my scanner lit up and said gold but I couldn't see any gold to drill anywhere now I understand 😂
good video. just what i needed :)
Just a tip I found helpful, when using the laser cutter to gather resource nodes hold the right click and it charges the cutter making it about 4x quicker to extract resources
Omg... Thank you for this tip!
@@mem0ryfoam of course!!
the fact people don't realize this after picking up the cutter is astounding.
Quick tip, if you need a lot of iron fast, you can farm tons by shooting asteroids. The lumpy looking ones are usually water the concrete looking ones are usually iron and sometimes platinum palladium and other resources. Be careful though because you can get rocks permanently stuck around your ship when doing this so save before and check for any random rocks after just in case.
Looks good!
Outpost cap with the skill maxed is 24. 8 to begin with and up to 16 from the skill.
Yeah, the skill wording is kinda weird since it gives the absolute total as you rank up instead of adding on to your max
picking up resources from 24 outposts would make me want to shoot myself
@Scrimpton the key is trying to get a good chunk of those resources from your extractors. At the other bases
@@lowaimnobrainuse cargo links to claim it all at one outpost
@@lowaimnobrainthat’s why cargo links are a thing
Your channel for “Starfield” is my favorite and extremely helpful. Subbed. 😎
Great video!
I have some Satisfactory vibes watching that !
I would love to see you building a ship. Your unique creativity talent along with your min/max strategy, I'm sure you'll create some awesome looking and fully efficient ships!
Honestly struggling with ship building at the moment, when I understand it better you can guarantee I'll cover it!
The docking bay always seems to get me
Much more if this please. Not only about outposts. It also ship building eventually if you can please as well. I’m subscribing now as I love building games and haven’t seen other doing build guides for SF which are in dearth and specific.
Just noticed you're not using the right-click laser for mining in your video clips. That makes it about 5x faster, highly recommend haha
No idea what this is
Thanks for a helpful video! Still pretty new -- trying to understand why I would need an outpost.
I definitely hope they go deeper into outpost building and polish up the UI. It’s a lot better than fall out but I’d like to see a better snap tool
I’d also like to see being able to build a trade alliance board so you can shop from your base. Maybe unlocked through a quest and needing the cargo link
You say "a better snap tool", but is there a snap tool at all? I can't seem to understand ho to build anything that doesn't look like random placed objects :D
Just wait for the mods, they're coming 😊
This is more bare bones than fallout
I dunno how that’s better
@@LecrazyMaffeThere's an aerial view but for inside placing its impossible to get stuff exactly where you want haha
Omg TotalXclipse doing factory building in space!! What a fantastic intersection!
I love the base building in this game.
I loved the settlement building of f4, especially the expansions adding resource and factory gameplay, and the base building in f76 (allthough heavily monetized) was amazing too. Hope bethesda improves on the system for starfield as it is great, allthough barebones atm. For the love of god bring back placement of any loot items as decorations, im gutted i cant have my treasure museum yet..
You can! You can drop your items, hold A. Then drag andr drop where you want it
Weapon rack, mannequins etc
pretty sure you can build a cabinet
You have to complete the research projects to unlock those types of furniture
You can drop any item and interact with said item via the build system and then place them with finesse like so.
I needed this video thank you. I didn't even realise i could drop the outpost thing. Did i miss some massive mission 🤔
Great guide. Kinda wish there was a mission to start outposts.
I'm really excited for Starfield, I'm only about 20 hours in or so and enjoying the storyline and missions. I'm excited to see how the base building/ manufacturing works out as I've made a right mess of my first base. Also looking forward to space ship design, hopefully you'll do some more videos to cover these
Hoping they add some advanced building stuff along the lines of Fallout where you can build a proper base with settlers and what not. Think the games too big to not be able to build thriving colonies
Agreed and would be good to see some proper production features put in place like foundations and conveyor belts and such like. Base building in Starfield is a bit painful right now@@blgarndogg9673
My controls are completely screwed in the outpost editor. I can only seem to move backward for some reason. However in the tab for the outpost there are not seperate bindings for movement while in that editor which is weird. Do you might have an idea under what tab I can find these?
Can you please make a dedicated, in depth video on cargo links?
It’s pretty straightforward...at first...but then it gets so damn complicated and confusing and just when I think I fixed the problem(s) i was having, like having a resource I’ve set up a dedicated extraction outpost for with cargo links and everything, not delivering the resource to my main storage/crafting outpost. I realize I’m still not receiving any of it.
Also the specific problem I have at the moment is this: I have my main storage/crafting base with all three links going out to all my extraction posts. The key ones are my iron post and my tungsten post, two different ones mind you. I have the iron post and main base directly linked but since I’m already using all 3 of my links at base I can’t directly ship tungsten to it, which is a BIG problem.
So I thought ok, I only have one link on my iron base, so I’ll just build a new link there and link my iron post to my tungsten post and have my all tungsten shipped to the iron post. Then I’ll connect the incoming tungsten pad box to my main storage box(the box that’s feeding the outgoing iron pad) at the iron post and the iron pad will now ship both my iron post mats and my tungsten post mats back to main base. But I’m receiving no tungsten.
The only thing I can think of is:
A.) I don’t have enough available storage at main base so my tungsten can’t be delivered because it has nowhere to go.
B.) I’ve somehow not linked it properly but I’m almost positive I have.
C.) The transport ship the cargo link pad spawns is not fast enough? Idk.
D) It’s glitched
E.) Something entirely unknown to me.
Anybody that has any idea what to do is welcome to suggest a solution.
Do you want to see Bethesda go deeper into the outpost and factory mechanics? let me know here or join me in stream immediately after the premiere at twitch.tv/totalxclipse
Absolutely
how would you rate Starfield and is it fun
YES!!
Eventually being able to terraform a planet and create cities would be amazing.
Create a fully workable economy.
@@smitteree Someone always has to take it too far...
@@smittereemods on PC maybe 🤔
Can you make a video on how to get crew skills? I have a crew member with outpost management on a outpost but i cant use the skills.
Do your resources on your ship combine with your base resources when crafting? I’m 30 hours in and I’m just now thinking about building a base.
I'd love to see a big update to outpost building. I hope outpost defense becomes a thing where your outposts can be invaded.
Pirates and other factions can attack them
Pick the Wanted trait, and your life are not gonna be that ease anymore, be it on ground or the open space. There's a ship flying and landed on my planet, I just watch them from afar, then about 10 bounty hunters get out of the ship, try to kill me, raided my outpost and ruined every buildings lol. It's a must have trait in every playthrough.
Hello, and for ship its same? To unlock the expert skills we need to buy skills + search on the laboratory? Or just take skills
Are your crews perks able to help with research or crafting? I have a crew mate with outpost building 2
I also have Lin and Harris on my outpost and their perks seem to do nothing. I wonder if you yourself need to have the perk unlocked first before crew will "add" their perks? IDK
For the outpost, is that per planet, system or the whole game? Man I love your content bro. I watched so many of your videos for Satisfactory, so happy to see you got Starfield.
If you're asking about the outpost limit, it's for the whole game.
Building factories and fleets would be cool, but as a space sim X4 does it pretty well
give it time people will make mods and Il bet there will be a DLC
I give it about a month before we get a "satisfactory" mod for Starfield that adds foundations, belts and splitters/murgers! :)
Haha, but seriously though - the base building in Starfield looks way more in-depth than I initially thought it'd be (I'm only a few hours in so haven't touched that yet), and I'm excited to start playing with it. It's great to see resource gathering and automation as part of it, and I'm sure there will be mods that add to/improve on that.
is there a way to center the objects when playing them down i hate the Left Click or Right Click to turn left or right. xD
Is it possible to set it up so that if you land you can dump all your resources into base storage? I have been trying and failing to do this, but I’m able to dump everything in storage into my ship.
If we delete something that we previously built, do we get those resources back or saved? And if so where does those items go back too?
Is it possible to make outpost generate credits full automaticly? Like setup npc trading routes or add an NPC that sell my resources automaticl or something like that?
The complexity on this game its really good. i like it
Is it not possible to align stuff like in satisfactory? like alligning landingpads to eachother or a carpet to a doorway?
I need to try and find a safe planet with basic resources I’m assuming there has to be some near the beginning systems right?
This is the 2nd video I've seen that mentions 8 outpost but my UI always says 7. Was there an update?
I am looking forward to get as much ore as possible with miners, so I can just build anything I want with no hassle.
Is there a way to see how many items can be build at an outpost? I noticed that some only can have half of that what others can.
Hello, i would suggest aguide to outpost cargo link chain to craft high value xp or credits items for example the vytinium fuel rod would be greatly appreciated
thank you very much for all your help
Has anyone figured out how to use rhe ship builder on the landing pad? I have one built but the kiosk does nothing so how do i use it??
I really can't wait for mods 😮
Slightly off topic but is there a way to access your boxes in your home from your work benches? Rather than having to search through them, everything. Cheers
I’m confused about the Cargo Link - Inter-System. I have helium, beryllium, and aluminum all at 1 outpost. I want to be able to transfer all of these materials to another outpost but the Cargo Link requires helium to operate. If I link the helium to the Cargo Link (outgoing) it gets no fuel. If I link it to the fuel pod, none of the helium goes to the output crate. I can’t seem to have it link from the fuel to the output crate so I can fuel the Cargo Link while also transferring the helium. Any help would be much appreciated
Can you make a mega storage video? I.e a video on linking outpost and having storage for all base ores
I put down two solar generators. It still says producing zero power. It's super sunny currently. Any ideas what the problem could be?
i do believe its 24 as perks dont stack but get upgraded to the next tier
Hi there !
Any idea why my extractor and solar panels explod in front of me, no enemy, nothing happen except some BOOM .
Thanks
Thank you so much! Glad you found the video helpful! Hoping to get another one out tomorrow!
QUESTION is there a simple way to get all materials back say you wanna destroy and outpost and start over?
Quick and obvious question: Why is the height adjustment keys in base building different from that in ship building? They are doing the same job, no? And there are likely other differences in control scheme for otherwise identical functions.
Yes random pirates/factions will attack your bases. It doesn't say but depending on how much you've placed, seems to be how more likely you are to be raided.
I tried to build a city, came back 3 times to it damaged and spacers/crimson fleet/Scarborough running around it
holy moly, im still not that far jet, but do you mean with this video, so in fact we can play factorio kinda things in starfield?
Do they outpost zone get bigger when you get more skilles?
Not sure if you're playing on PC, but after entering the outpost building mode and pressing V to switch the perspective, you can zoom in/out by sliding your mouse forward and backward. Weird how its not indicated, I found it out while getting frustrated with how the perspective was lol
The thing that's been annoying me is how HEAVILY invested you have to be in a single aspect of the game you have to be. I have 20 hours so far and I still can't build a base on an inhabital planet because I don't have the tech unlock, I focused more on actual combat perks.
Putting points in combat is a waste of time.
@@brian8861how so?
@brian8861 i think it depends on the playstyle. But you have a point, early you cant do everything yourself (you can always buy stuff that you cant craft), so invest skill points wisely.
@@EverythingWasGreat imo they should've gave us the level 1 of core skills (eg crafting and jetpack) just so we can dabble faster.
@@devids51 i think it's great that they dont give us a wide opening. Early decisions have a direct impact on gameplay. Nothing is decided for us.
They did it!
Is there any way to auto-sell the stuff you make?
Right now, it's a nightmare finding and navigating to your outpost/s. When you land, you generate one landing area. Then you place your outpost. Then, say, you leave the planet and later on fast travel to back to your outpost. The game then auto generates a SECOND landing area about 400m away. Before you know it you've got like 3 or 4 map icons for ONE location. It's insane and I can't believe nobody picked this up in QA. Also means that your outpost map icon ends up underneath the landing zone icon. When there's no dedicated menu to view and travel to all your outposts, it's pretty rough.
Currently planning to not do any building or resource extraction. Will use a ship as a base, and buy any required resources.
To re-cap, they have somehow managed to make settlement building more frustrating than in FO4.
If anyone has any solutions or workarounds for this I would absolutely love to know!
@@finkployd4658 did you leave by entering your pilot seat and "taking off" or all through menus? ill test around tmrow between shifts
Yeh It's starting to get rediculous dealing with multiple landing zones, at least let us delete them afterwards
Just create a landing pad, your ship will land on it
need resources to make things, can't make things without resources. every time i try to do an outpost im missing 1 aluminium or some other piece of trash and cant do it :^)@@tonyMosh
Is Outpost Building part of any of the Missions or completely independent?
This alot of stuff to process...I;ll come back to this video once I get some caffine!
Do you need any specific items carried at the moment to built it? Cause for me the option appears gray. Or maybe is the spot, but I dont think so since I tried many
You can't build outpost on every planet unless you've unlocked the perk :)
I'm only level 15 but I have not seen any need for components that I would need an automated factory. Is there actually a use for mass produced components?
And how do you sell this stuff? my inventory is constantly overfull without even producing a thing :(
Your voice is honey and silk. Your video is informative and entertaining.
Take. Me. Home.
I'm trying to move over large amounts of resources in one go from the transfer container but I can only move 130 at a time out of the 7k I need to move, I have to exit the cargo hold menu on my ship and go back on to get the next 130 to show up in the transfer container, any ideas?
Everytime I try to connect something it says I can’t cause it’s overlapping with something but it’s not. Is that a bug?
If I want to make adaptive frames but my base only has aluminum production, can I have an inter-outpost cargo link connect to the fabricator so then I have aluminum and iron?
In your case you'd have Iron storage at the extraction site linked to an outgoing terminal, establish the link between the two cargo links, then have the incoming terminal at your production outpost linked for construction. If your extraction site is in a different solar system you'll need to research the inter-system cargo link, and supply it with helium-3.
if you have a large ship u can still use the small landing platform you just have to turn it diagonally so ur ship can actually land i have a 39m by 34m ship and it still lands fine idk i think landing gear placement might have something to do with it too
is there a way to always spawn inside your ship whenever you land at your outpost? for some reason I always spawn outside my ship which is extremely annoying
got excited with the outpost features. BUT, it still some refining and tweaking. Expansion of mechanics wouldnt be bad. Factory DLC! lol. another aspect (unsure) that might be weak is Space trucking.
I just want to know what's the best planet, location, and order of building to get resources. Im not wanting to hang out on the planet, I just want resources for upgrades.
I won't touch any Bethesda games. But I appreciate the video and the glimpse of various aspects of gameplay so I can at least understand what people are talking about.
Please make a more indepth tutorial on how the freight link works especially across systems. Mine do not seem to work as intented. My main base is on another system and I am farming Iron and Aluminium aswell as Helium on another planet. I made it such that the iron and aluminium get shipped to the interlink which is where I mine helium. Then I connected the 2 other incoming links to the outgoing interlink (on the planet I am mining on) and connecting it to the planet I have my base on. Ships fly but my ressources do not fill up. I put an hour into trying to fix it but I just cant and getting frustrated.
any news on this? did you figure it out?
Is there a way to see a list of the created OUTPOST?
When i connect parts how i can chose side connection?
any reason why sometime the outpost icon greys out? I want to find a nice spot to place it but then I can't... anyone know why that is?
Theres going to be ao many QoL updates and additional parts to build with in both the ship and outposts. Or at least i hope so. And if im right i cant wait
Can resources be shared between outpost?
I just wanna see a huge base tour
so I found a spot with copper and Aluminium and I can craft reactive gauges , problem is I still need to carry them from workbench to landing pad and they are heavy, so even if i produce 500 of them, I need to make 5 runs up and down the landing pad and 5 runs to the shop to sell them afterwards, convince me industry doesn't suck ... Am I missing something?
The number of outposts allowed... is that number of outpost buildings or the number of outpost locations (like a dozen or so planets/moons)?
You need the planetary habitation skill to build on planets with hostile environments, inferno and deep freeze, extreme radiation, etc. it’s a great skill to have some of the most inhospitable planets and moons are my favorite.
