Starbound :: Part 3 :: The Erchius Mining Facility

How's it going everyone, welcome to

another episode of Starbound. As you can

see, I've done a few different things to

the area that we're working with. I don't

know what I just did. How do you--? There

we go, it's 'Ctrl', not 'C', ha. But yeah,

I've done a few different things to the

place, let me go ahead and zoom it for

you, so we can see everything.

I added in this little storage area,

it's really temporary, but I just kinda

wanted to do it someplace to put this,

you know, crafting situation. Then just

a general little storage area for like,

blocks and what not. Very much temporary,

I do plan on making this holding look

a lot better, you know. Once we kinda

progress in the game. But the forum is

doing well, as well. Check that out. Look

at all this food that we have! We have

popcorn, which I could eat. We have

pearlpeas, rice, all kinds of stuff. Like

I said - popcorn, baked potatoes, steak,

fish even, poultry, roasted carrots.

I mean we have everything right now. And

it's all growing really well. This has

been very useful, so far. But anyways,

what are we doing today? We are finally,

going to, you know, play along with the

story line of the game. If we've been up

to the ship. You should see I should

probably have, I believe I have, like 40

or so core-fragments, yes, 41. I think I

actually have more in my inventory

somewhere. Yep, 24. So we are loaded

with core-fragments, and other things.

Actually, while I'm here, we may aswell

go the furnace, which is up here, and go

ahead and get our, you know, bars here for

what we have. I've done a little bit of

caving, I haven't really done much since

the last episode. But you know, I've just

been playing the game a little bit, and

doing the grind. The stuff you guys don't

really want to see on camera. But yeah,

we're looking good in terms of ore, like

we're pretty set up. We might better do

some armour here soon, who knows? And

even with the matter manipulator stuff, or

the module stuff, I don't know. We're

doing it on that as well. But yeah, I

think we are probably going to be seeing

some new stuff today, cause I heard that

the story line is pretty different from

what it normally is. Let me see, yeah,

there we go, Two manipulator modules, and

yeah, I think that's pretty much all the

important stuff that I want to get out of

my inventory, before I go out and die. I

mean seriously, it's very easy to die in

this game and lose everything now. It's

really scary. Let me go ahead and craft

some of these. I guess we'll make like 10,

or so, why not. I mean I've got a good

amount already, but it couldn't hurt to

get more. If we go over here to the side,

MM upgrade thing, we can see, kinda like

what it would require to upgrade

certain things. And this allows us

to get, like, liquid. This allows us to,

well, it basically increases the range

or, yeah, the range by two tiles.

This one increases the quickness of it,

and this one basically affects the area,

so, I'm pretty sure, yeah, it can go

up to five tiles, we can go up to 300%

faster, 6 tiles farther than we're used to,

and, y'know, be able to get all kinds of

stuff. This is wire mode. So there's--

there's plenty of stuff that we want to be

able to unlock. I think for now

the first thing we're really going to

go for is power, or maybe even

the three tiles, I don't know yet.

But I know that what we're about to do

should, y'know, produce a good amount

of modules. [Laughs] But, uh, basically

we're gonna grab some of these

core fragments. I think we need, like

maybe twenty...? So let's just grab that

first, and let's go over to our quests,

and continue tracking. So it says

"Use the core fragments

to activate the gate." I kinda wanna

bring a little bit more just in case,

so let's bring like, 15 more...? I don't

really know what it requires, but

hopefully it's not, y'know, too much.

But yeah, while I was, y'know, away

over the past week, I did a Starbound

tutorial video for the house featured

in this Let's Play, so go check that out

if you're interested. I did mention it

last episode, so you guys probably

already know about it, but just in case

you missed it--There we go--(??)

--Yeah, ok cool. But anways, I'm gonna

walk over to the ancient gate real quick

and I will see you guys in just a moment.
