This is an article containing advice about how to play Waste of Space.
The tips
Be careful when using the hammer tool on vehicles
Be VERY careful when using the "drag tool", as most ships have a singular, big hull holding everything, and dragging it might unweld and shatter the whole ship. This can circumvented by assembling multiple, smaller hulls reducing or neglecting possible damage. It is recommended to put a VehicleSeat on your base and have a radar on your ship so you are less likely to forget where your base is. Please note that other people are more likely to find your base if they have a radar, but it is slightly safer than beacons.
Backup space stations
Having a space station with your CloningBay, a backup ship and materials and in the middle of nowhere near a star is a great way to not get yourself stuck on starter planets again.
Custom boilers
Using custom boilers is a great alternative to normal boilers, because some planets don't have coal to run a normal boiler. They can be much faster and can quickly turn ice into steam without use of a reactor or coal, just electricity. Some custom boilers can even be faster than a reactor!
Teaming
It is highly recommended to team up with other people because other people might have skills and knowledge that you don't have. Starter planets are the easiest places to find players to recruit since they are usually filled with players. It's always great to have another pair of eyes watching over the base while you are away! Note that this could increase resource consumption and larger factories might be needed to support building projects that group members might start. (idk how to fix this part) also be wary of some people when recruiting, because some people might leech off your base's resources and power, and they might sabotage your base, so be careful of who you are recruiting.
possibly tips?
Use mining lasers
Replacing extractors for mining lasers might not be a bad idea. That's if your base can support it, and if you have the materials. This is because mining lasers don't need to be 50 studs away from each other, unlike extractors. They can increase the amount of resources generated which might help resource shortage problems. However, they will also increase the power required to run the factory.
