One of the most requested features from our community has been the ability to fly your ship. With the upcoming update, we're making that dream a reality! You'll have more ways than ever to explore, giving you complete control over your journey through the stars.
Sublight Engines
Upon arriving in a new region, you might find that you're not in the perfect spot. With the addition of new sublight engines, you can maneuver your base to a more central location to gather resources more efficiently. And when you're ready, you'll need to move far enough from any gravity wells to make your next jump.

Small Vehicles
As we previewed in our last update, the Space Exploration update introduces new smaller vehicles designed for maneuvering around regions. The video below showcases the first vehicle you'll unlock—a nimble one-seater perfect for squeezing in and out of caves and other tight spots.

Where To?
In addition to the "how," let's talk about the "where." The new environments introduced in the Space Exploration update are diverse, with vast distances between them. Using the Navigational Computer on the bridge, you can now explore new regions, identify important resources, and start charging the warp engines to jump to your next destination.
Once you've gathered all the resources from a region, fueled up your ship, and locked in your next destination, it's time to leave the gravity well and launch into hyperspace. It's wise to stay on board your ship—unless you want to risk a horrific fate!
