Brand new player, can't connect oxygen tether to starting base.
I just got the game and played the tutorial which was easy enough.

Now I've started a new game on adventure mode. My shuttle transformed into a habitat, and I got this other building for missions, currently disabled.

I cannot figure out how to connect a tether to the starting base. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Edit: Currently I'm not able to go anywhere because my oxygen drops too fast, so I can't do anything. I managed to find a few solar panels in the debris near the base but that didn't help me at all.

Edit 2: People say that an oxygenator has to be placed in the habitat. Except it costs a ton. They also mention that it's a "free drop" in the "landing pad". Which I can't find at all.

Edit 3: Apparently all the information I can get online is outdated. There's definitely no oxygenator when you first land, and to unlock it you need something like 10 000 bits. I barely managed to make 100. I have no idea what to do.

Go to the landing pad looking thing and there's a mission log panel, click the green button to receive the reward for "planet fall" and you'll be given a small printer and oxygenator - install the oxygenator in the shelter and you can now place tethers

The mission panel is disabled, I cannot do anything with it.

Edit: Apparently it's disabled if you start a game in creative mode, which I did NOT do. I carefully selected adventure, and did not enable creative mode later on while I was playing.

So I'm not sure why this mission panel refuses to work.

playing PC or console?
PC here - I just started a new game to test this out. I can press F (Examine) or simply click on the panel and it expands on the screen and I get the options for reward on Planetfall!
At this point, I'd start a new game, might be a bug in your landing zone

PC. I'll try starting a new game I guess.

Nothing to lose at this point by doing that

Starting a new game did the trick. Apparently if you simply look at the creative menu before starting an adventure mode, it still counts as being a creative game, very weird bug but easily replicable.
