    Second off, you should look at the [[Planets#Planets|planet type]].
     
    If you needwant a lot of resources and don't reallymind carepotentially aboutharsh habitabilityconditions <small>(though note these can be almost as hospitable as a terra planet if you get lucky)</small>, go for a [[barren]] one. Note you will not have any [[grass]] or [[water]], and will have to obtain them using [[Hydroponic|hydroponics]] and [[Melter|melters]] respectively. On the contrary, if you just want an easy first base, a [[terra]] or [[forest]] planet would be ideal as they are almost always easily habitable and can still generate with all of the [[resources]] you'd find on a [[barren]] (except [[beryllium]]).

    [[Tundra|Tundras]] or [[Desert|deserts]] are great if you want to lower your risk of being raided and/or require a lot of space, though they offer slightly less resources than barren planets and can be quite difficult to inhabit. [[Exotic|Exotic planets]] vary, and there isn't really a good general rule of thumb for them.

    If a planet doesn't meet your requirements, going for a ring base is also an option, in this case you should look for a [[Gas Giant|gas giant]]. Do know that these can be quite difficult to set up and this guide doesn't recommend them for new players. Advanced players may also choose to enter the gas giant itself. This, however, requires a lot of preparation and requires a good power source available through [[Relay|relays]] as there is no other good way of getting power in gas giants.<blockquote>'''For a more complete analysis of each planet type, take a look at the pages under [[:Category:Planets]].'''

    Again, as with resources, if you can't find a planet with perfect conditions, just compromise on a planet with conditions hospitable enough that you think you can handle them.
     
    It's hardly likely that you'll find '''the''' perfect planet during youyour search. Finding a planet is a trade-off between time spent and the quality of planets found. It's up to you to decide how much time you're willing to spend searching. Keep in mind that you can also always move if a planet no longer suits you.
     
     
     
    Once you've found a planet to call home, <small>(assuming you aren't already there)</small> warp to it using your [[HyperDrive]], and prepare to enter it. Once you've made sure you can safely enter the planet <small>(you may need to add some [[Cooler|coolers]] or [[Heater|heaters]] to your ship; preferably on a switch)</small>, point your ship at it and turn on your [[:Category:Propulsion|propulsion]]. Once you're in planet itself, it's time to find a spot for your new base.

    '''<big>Congrats 🎉!</big>''' You've found a [[Planets|planet]] to call home! Now, you simply have to find a spot for your new, permanent base. To start, you should check whether the planet you are going to settle is already inhabited. If this is the case you may either choose to ignore the existing base ''<small>(A lot of them are abandoned)</small>'', or to look for a new planet. You may also choose to raid it and take its [[resources]], though this is up to you.
     
    A spot for your base should have resources nearby, and a lot of space for later expansion. With the knowledge you gained from escaping your starter planet, you should have no problem setting up your first base. If this is the ever case though, you can consult [[Getting Started]] again for a refresher of the basics.
     
     
     
    As Waste of Space is a sandbox game, these starter guides come to a close at this point. You're now left to your own devices to build whatever you'd like. We hope you've found these tutorials helpful as a guide through the earliest part of your journey in WoS. '''Good luck, and have fun!'''<blockquote>
