Resource extraction can be optimized by using [[MiningLaser|MiningLasers]] instead of [[Extractor|extractors]]; they are 1.5x faster and can be used on the same node. Be wary of the heat they produce, though. You'll need some [[resources]] to craft these however, some of which (assuming |
Resource extraction can be optimized by using [[MiningLaser|MiningLasers]] instead of [[Extractor|extractors]]; they are 1.5x faster and can be used on the same node. Be wary of the heat they produce, though. You'll need some [[resources]] to craft these however, some of which (assuming you've been following the guide) you haven't set up yet. You should now set up all the [[resources]] you haven't already. |

[[EnergyShield|EnergyShields]] are a great way of defending your base against energy-based weapons and [[Warhead|warheads]]. An active [[EnergyShield]] will block incoming projectiles and [[warhead]] explosions, preventing damage to your parts. A good [[EnergyShield]] setup will make your base nearly [[Aliens|alien]]-proof as they only use energy-based weapons. However, [[Explosive|explosives]], [[Blade|blades]], [[Cannon|cannons]] or [[Gun|guns]] which can be used by players will not be blocked. These pair nicely with other defensive and offensive strategies. |
