Start with the expensive mistakes
Learn what is lost on death before spending on equipment. Check your server before trying to meet friends. Check the remaining cycle before treating a base as a long-term investment. These decisions are easier to correct before the run than after a valuable bag or a misplaced settlement purchase.
Use the wiki alongside a guide
Guides explain a sequence; the wiki explains the mechanism underneath it. If a cargo route leaves you wondering how money becomes protected funds, open the money reference. If an item is locked, inspect the progression reference instead of assuming the solution is simply more cash.
Are the routes tested in game?
These editions synthesize official documentation. They do not claim hands-on testing or measured earnings.
Where do server instructions live?
The server hub covers changing worlds, regions and joining friends.
What if a menu has changed?
Check the dated official source and the current client. Early Access instructions can need revision.
Sources and editorial check
Checked 2026-11-11. This is an independent guide. Game rules can change during Early Access.
