Starting out
Tutorial
The ingame tutorial kinda sucks and I'm too lazy to fix it so here is an explanation of the controls and UI
Controls
- C - Cancel
- B - Delete
- Z - Zoom
- X - Pan
- F2 - Commandline
The shop
The shop is a menu on the right of your screen where you can buy buildings to place.
How to use
- Click on any building in the shop
- Move your mouse to the place you want to build
- Click the left mouse button
- Press C on your keyboard to stop placing
Deleting
To delete a building you placed:
- Press B to enter delete mode
- Click on the building
- Press C to exit delete mode
Cards
Cards are the main way of unlocking talents and buildings.
Cards can be obtained in 2 ways
- By phasing up, giving 1 Talent and 1 Building pack.
- By having the Starting Pack ability, giving 1 Talent and 1 Building pack when starting out.
To use cards
- Get a pack
- Either click to reveal a card immediately or wait for all the cards to appear
- If you have not revealed any cards, you can pay 7 robux to reroll (Depends on phase, is 7 at phase 1-50)
- When you have revealed the cards, click on any card to pick it
Money and Phase
There are 2 counters at the bottom of your screen. The Money and the Phase counter (It says tutorial at phase 0)
Money is used to buy buildings Phase is how far you are in the game
To phase up
- Gain enough money to phase up (All costs are here. The amount of money you need is how much you have earned in total that phase. NOT your current money)
- Press phase up (Clears factory, money and resets the map)
To gain money
- Place a miner on a vein
- Connect conveyors so the ore goes to the black void in the middle of the map (the sell point)
- Profit
Gears
Gears are an unfinished currency obtained by playing the game. (There is an algorithm, I don't want to explain.)
Gears save between runs.
