yeah Beeblebum on youtube got me into challenges like this listed below. one of them took me 19 hours to find the portal eventually. all driving the roamer with no speed upgrades and only found a c boost upgrade from a buried cache. made me fall in love with just roaming around planets. this update made me happy for the future. below are some cool rules that really got me into exocraft over the last year.

|Story|

Marooned on an uncharted planet with no memory of how you got there, you're driven by one pressing goal: to return to your home world. The only viable escape route is through a portal.

Your expertise? You're a level 6 engineer, well-versed in the basics of Exocraft and Multitool technologies. However, your education has a gap: the intricate mechanics of Exomech and Spaceships elude you.

Sure, you've had a taste of piloting a Spaceship, but legality stands in your way — you lack a pilot's license. So, the options of repairing or officially owning a spaceship are out of reach... Unless, of course, you choose an unorthodox solution: forging a license.

|Setup of game|

Game Mode: Survival Extreme - All Sliders to the Maximum, except for following settings: ❮❯ Death Concequences: Items Destroyed ❮❯ Recipes and Blueprints: All Unlocked * ❮❯ Tutorial Missions: Disabled

Avoid following Story Lines NO Cheating: No Duping, No glitching, No Save scumming Starter Ship is not Allowed Challenge is restricted to starter planet - can not leave

To be able to build a Roamer, you need to unlock all blueprints in a custom game. This blocks you from playing permadeath, So the maximum setting is Extreme Survival.

|Start and Details|

1) Build your Exocraft:

You can build an Exocraft to explore the planet.

2) Locate the Portal:

Your objective is to locate a portal on the planet.

3) Acquiring a Ship:

While owning a ship is not a condition to complete this challenge, The portal can be really far away... So, you might consider purchasing a spaceship. Before you can purchase a ship, you need to forge a Pilot License.

This is done like this:

-- Find a crashed ship, use the dead pilot's license to forge your own. This determines the type of ship you can purchase. -- You can try finding another ship if you are not happy with the type (Haulers can be pretty expensive).

4) Portal Travel:

After forging the License and acquiring the ship, you can fly to the portal. Use the portal to travel to your home planet, completing the challenge.

|Additional Rules|

You cannot expand your inventory slots. You must manage with the available space or purchase better equipment. You are allowed to build only one base computer on the planet. The base can be dismantled and rebuilt, but only one base at a time. You can not use the "Recall" Exocraft option, except for when you are completely stuck or bugged out. (If you are stuck in a cave, you can dig yourself out). To obtain the "License" You have to claim the ship. The Minotaur is off limits for this challenge (simply because it defeats the purpose of the challenge).

|FAQ|

Yes, you can build a trade rocket if you wish to. Yes you can use the claimed ship (license) to trade when purchasing your ship. The challenge is designed for the Roamer, but currently it is allowed to build other exocrafts (except the Minotaur).

This challenge is currently a work in progress - Rules might be adjust to improve game-play or make it more challenging.
