Only use landers when you can fill them with crew (they last longer) 2. Always keep your finger on the escape button so if you start taking damage you can get out quick!! Quote How on earth do you make new landers? See previous answer from Novus Quote what is the recommanded number of lander to carry around? I always carry 2 landers. Nothing worse than having to fly all the way back to earth in the middle of a 'harvest'...accidents happen. The maximum you can carry is nine (or is it ten?) but that's overkill really!

Also, avoiding planets with hostile lifeforms is probably a good idea too. There are plenty of planets out there with good minerals to get you started, you just gotta look around and be careful!
I've never needed to carry more than 2 landers. |
