Is there any way to start in space on the Star System scenerio?

Starting on the planet is awful because of how long it takes just to find basic ore like iron.

Also, do beacons not working properly on planets? I created one, powered it, and set it's range to 50k and after I died it never showed up on my hud.

Start it in Creative mode, fly out into space on unlimited fuel, save, change the setting for the save from Creative to Survival, load, there you go.

I figured as much. That's pretty lame.

If that's too lame for you, start on the moon then?

Because there is no option for such, hence why I asked if there was.

There is, it's called "Moon Easy start"; the moon is orbiting the Earth-like planet so you can make landfall later if you wish.

I do not want a station to start with.

Sometimes you need to setup your gamemodes by yourself, this game is a sandbox after all, i am kinda pissed too, i want to start on a pink planet with banana trees but there's isn't any....KEEN make gamemode with pink planet with banana trees plx.

Yea I know, but flying around space and setting up planets and astroids yourself takes forever. I was just hoping there would be an easier way.

If you want to go straight into space on starsystem map do as follows ...

1. commit suicide after spawning and then select to respawn in the yellow ship (respawn ship is default name)
2. as soon as you spawn angle the ship so that both the rear thrust and lower thrust is pointing towards the planet e.g at about a 45-60degree angle.
3. push forward and lift at the same time, the combined thrust from the 6 engines will slow you and then push you out into space ! can take a while to slow you down.

down side is that you burn through a fair bit of your uranium during the escape burn so once your free of gravity just turn off al non essential systems like refinery and assembler and oxy generator as well as grav gen, then turn off your dampers and coast to the nearest asteroid and hope there is a uranium deposit there. hope that helps ...
