Player Tips
It is worth trying for some of the upgrades as soon as possible.
Recommended are:
-Drive Engine 1 (allows sustained flight, which is faster than walking, but consumes more energy)
-Mecha Core 1 (increases maximum mecha energy storage)
and
-Universe Exploration 1 (displays symbols for resources and their yields across the planet)
as these upgrades do not use matrices, but regular components.
