Jet-pack is a 1 time buy???
can I get another jet pack and double down on movement, or is it a one n done. I don't want to waste the cubes on something I don't need.

It is not a jet-pack, it is an air propulsion system that does not speed up, but slows down rapid movement outside the solid surface. And no, you will not benefit from another one.

Ok, I like how you put that, being outside the ship was very different for me. the reason I called it a jet pack because it uses the run command. I wonder if he will drift off in to space should I stray to far.. It be fun to find out if I get bored one day, but for now the game is to young to try.

No, you'll die of radiation poisoning.

To bad, so sad. it was just a passing thought anyway. BTW i now have the 2nd chip set item but don't know how to unlock, the 1st has 2 chips and all box's open. the other is closed.

You have to use neuromods to unlock more slots for the chips.

If you don't have the scope yet you can't equip that kind of chips. You'll find it about an hour or so after building the jetpack.

Actually, it is. If you are stopped in zero G, it will accellerate you. It can launch you vertically if you choose. In normal G, it will allow you to jump farther and higher in addition to braking falls.

I was able to do all those things this morning, hence the thread. So I guess it serve's a dual purpose huh./

There's a suit upgrade somewhere in the game that will let you 'double jump' a little in gravity, otherwise, it's just for zero-G maneuvering and braking falls.

and yes, the base pack you get before your first spacewalk is a one-time fabrication. It's not the only item in the game that you can manufacture which is a one-off.

If you haven't figured it out, Shift lets you boost faster in zero-G, at the risk of collision damage.
