Terrain manipulator?

Your terrain manipulator can pretty much let you go anywhere underground...and get you out of a cave if you can't find an opening.

[pazartesi_gorusuruz]

you simply need to dig yourself out sir

[Mr Crowley]

I can dig it. Can you dig it?

I just wish there was some power hungry weapon system, base shield, ship cloaking device or something that would gobble up all that silicate I always wind up with.

You can use it to recharge the terrain manipulator, or you can refine it into glass.

Players like me whom may need a lot of glass from time to time wish we could strip mine the stuff with a low and slow transport ship.

Preferably with operating refiners on board.

We have paper knees & it’s very dangerous for us to walk let alone crouch!

What else explains the fact that you can fall from like 6 feet with full shield & 3 health stars and still experience that wonderful black quote screen?

A 'world' of glass.🤪

I can`find my way out of a cave, how to use this manipulator tool?

[Hexalotte]

ok I found it, but still no way out of that cave...

The terrain manipulator uses I think silicon dust and or Ferrite dust to refuel it among other things. If you have no ferrite dust or can not find any, use a melee punch or your mining beam on any rocks close by, then you can use your exosuit refiner or portable refiner to refine other resources into ferrite dust. Also rusted metal will refine to ferrite dust and some other basic resources you may have with you.

Once you get even just a little ferrite dust you can add it to the terrain manipulator to get it working, then blast around you collecting lots of Silicon Dust from the terrain. Refuel it completely with the Silicon Dust (which is everywhere) and you can escape by blasting a hole in the terrain.

Switch to the Terrain manipulator (check Options -> Controls -> Remap Controls) then hold down the left mouse button and aim at the ground (up/down/left/right) where you want to burrow a hole.

Unless you are digging down into Minecraft like bedrock (yes it's in this game too) you can ALWAYS dig your way out and are never 'stuck'

Oh and A++ on your search abilities

Thank you, the matter had already been resolved. I found the way out again a short time. Nevertheless, I'm going to uninstall the game though, it's too extensive for me, too many menus and you spend way too much time grinding and converting resources. Everything is too big and sprawling and there isn't really a story mode to follow. I'm going to unsubscribe from this discussion now. Thanks and have fun
