How to Use the Extension Ladder

The Extension Ladder is an incredibly useful tool that will help the Ship’s crew to climb somewhere high or cross a gap. The ladder looks like a black and red box when unfolded. It has two modes of operation: vertical and horizontal.

In vertical mode, players can use it to climb up like a regular ladder. This can be useful outdoors to reach places that cannot be accessed otherwise. Vertical mode is also very helpful inside the facility to climb to a higher floor and to avoid monsters if they have blocked the stairwell.

In turn, the horizontal mode will be incredibly useful for crossing pits both inside and outside facilities on different moons. If a gap is discovered while exploring a facility, jumping over it can be extremely dangerous. Players can fall and crash, losing everything they hold in their hands permanently. To prevent this from happening, use the Extension Ladder to cross the gap safely. However, this mode has one drawback too. If the ceiling in the room where the ladder is used is too low, it will simply bump into it and the ladder will not be able to open in horizontal mode.

To use the Extension Ladder, stand in front of the elevation to be climbed or the gap to be crossed and press LMB. The ladder will be placed on the ground and then unfold vertically. If there is an obstacle in front of the ladder, it will rest on it, making it possible for the players to climb the ladder upwards. However, if there is nothing in front of it, the ladder will fall down. Also, be cautious when using it, as there is a danger of killing a player who happens to be under the ladder when it falls down.

You are a contracted worker for the Company. Your job is to collect scrap from abandoned, industrialized moons to meet the Company's profit quota. You can use the cash you earn to travel to new moons with higher risks and rewards--or you can buy fancy suits and decorations for your ship. Experience nature, scanning any creature you find to add them to your bestiary. Explore the wondrous outdoors and rummage through their derelict, steel and concrete underbellies. Just never miss the quota.

These dangers prey upon the vulnerable and lonesome, and the protection of your crew may be your only hope. You can guide your crewmates from your ship, using the radar to call out traps and using the ship's terminal to access remotely locked doors--or you can all go in together. The Company store has many useful tools for the job, including lights, shovels, walkie talkies, stun grenades, or boomboxes.

Things get dangerous at night. Communicate with your crewmates to carry all valuables to the ship before things get too dangerous, and try not to leave anyone behind.
