Tip 11: Change your Gravity battery when your docked.. your powered when docked so gravity doesn't drop. Tip 12: Your below 15% battery's can be fully drained by putting them in the Mag or core slots.. you got 2 and only need one,so you can switch one out and drain what's left.
@MozheBoy dead ass I just sat here for 3:35 thinking "this is a really nice montage of tips, music slaps pretty hard too." Changed from right side to left side ear bud and started hearing a voice 😂
You don't need to switch off the suit charger. It only charges the suit after use. The mag lock is one of the slowest energy consumers. Next to your suit charger. I normally don't run with gravity, gravity generator is one of the most power-consuming system. Just take your storagebox put them on the shelf and then open them and they will not float
Just to be safe I turn everything I am not using off :) it is good in practice if nothing else. I have made a habit of always turning the lights off now as well as adjusting the climate control too!
Having to put all the stuff back on the shelves is so dumb. How long would it take a spacetrucker to put netting or bungies in front of those shelves? The actual space station has storage solutions for zero G. Heck planes have solutions to make sure cargo doesn’t shift.
To be fair lads, it is launch. I am honestly suprised at the upgrade on the top tree (won't spoil) didn't expect to be given that. Though I do agree, I'd really prefer to see it added as an upgrade for way later on. Just something to really tack on the QOL stuff for late game. The netting is definitely a good idea
Hey, if you're having trouble with space debris. Here are two great tips. 1. Slow down, damage and loss of time is not worth driving quickly through a debris field. 2. In first person, there is a debris signal on the dash. Right of the Speedometer. It will light up when debris is on course for your truck. Navigate accordingly, and you will be fine. Happy truckin', my fellow longhaulers!
Another tip: Always keep an eye out for Salvage beacons (they are marked as a little eye when you pass near them or later with the scanner) You can find a lot of good stuff there that can help you as you are beginning, like a ir filters, gas tanks and good batteries and they are always charged at 100%
thats the easist one to find.. Big icon that flashes.. so i dont think its true that you have seen new players having trouble with that.. However i do belive that YOU having trouble finding that!.. Next time just be honest
I was hoping more for truck tips like saving gas, I was super low once and had to make a delivery a few miles away, I turned one engine off and auto pilot to try and glide as far as possible and make it to delivery then shop for gas 😅
On the map screen, that little window in the top left has a drop-down button that will expand to show you the fuel prices, trade goods prices, and what particular contraband is illegal in each sector. Super useful
Yes it sure is! I may do another video because there are a ton of useful things to know that just aren't introduced in the tutorial. I also have an idea for a video on the specifics of trading commodities as I make more money doing that than hauling the actual freight.
Nice tips bro, can I suggest lowering the music a bit so I can hear you voice. My tip is avoid the lighting storms, those lighting static buffers I got don't last long. I prefer to drive around the storms and avoid docking when the storm is near them. At least till I fully upgrade that part of the space truck.
I'm mostly deaf in my left ear, I had to crank the headphones and the music in the right ear was very distracting. But those were all very helpful tips, thank you.
These tips were very helpful thank you! I will say a tip of my own for video making, when you gave tip number 2 and said you can't really show it here, instead you could have just kept explaining and then after recording that part, you could have later driven to a spot with some debris and recorded that footage for 30 seconds so you could give a visual example about what you're talking about and edit it into the video. It will make the video much more professional and less awkward and be more helpful for people who don't get what you mean.
I'm really struggling with the design constraints of making the ship like a truck, and my own sense of good engineering and design. There should be velcro and duct tape everywhere, ideally in those easy cut spool holders. All the batteries (presuming they would even be required in the first place, as that'd be the first focus of my own iterative design process) would be centralized and ideally in reach of the seat. The central storage needs work too. Strategic use of Neodymium or electromagnets (or both) or at least cargo-straps (a staple of trucking, btw.) are obvious upgrades. That said, there's a lot to like, too. The cabin is wide open, and would be easy to navigate in zero G. The mag-coupling system is intuitive and easy to use, and would, if possible, be an ideal system to use IRL. [brain took a space off moment here, and invented a system which would work in a similar manner... 3 hours lost to invent something I'll probably never get to prototype, much less produce!] All told, I'm torn. I'm hoping QOL and balance updates will alleviate a lot of the issues, but I'm feeling like cutting into 'good practice' (like requiring station owners to clean their local space up a bit) in favor of providing gameplay elements doesn't turn out to be as fun as if those elements just worked right on their own. It always feels less like getting ahead, and more like catching up... Just wondering if anyone else feels the same way about this title that I do.
Turning off Maglock Controls is useless for one simple reason : when they are not actively being used (as in towing or being docked), they do not draw any charge on their respective power cells.
Maglock only drains when you're pulling trailers, when you're docked the station provides power to all your systems so there's no drain on the maglock batteries. So turning off the maglock controls is genuinely useless.
I believe its from recording in split audio mode. It should have been in both sides but more so in the left and the gameplay audio more in the right. I am looking into better ways to record. Thanks for pointing this out!
I hate driving in 3rd person but I'm good in first person great a dodging all the little rocks, as far as I can see maglocks don't use power unless in use. Because when not in use it says 0% used an hour
When you place the boxes in the rag and open them, they will stay there when grav shut down or you crash into something. And the stuff is still protected
I read a tip that if you put those containers on your shelves and then open their lids, they are stuck there and won't go flying around if you lose gravity. Also to leave your stairs down to that lower area in the open position and that way the stuff stays in the rear of the cab if you lose gravity and brake hard. EDIT: looks like someone beat me to that first tip in another comment.
Okay…so it’s not just me? System warns me one of them is going out, followed by sudden, instant and even immediate death! Other than that, love it! Lol
The difficulty is pretty high in the very beginning, and turning down the power consumption, for example, lowers it too much in my opinion. Hopefully they will balance this soon.
@@drjekl521this is exactly my issue. 23k just debt now cause you'd be as well grabbing them out any shop you're near otherwise you'll die and it'll cost money anyway, but then all I'm doing is hauling and not making enough money to upkeep the truck 😂
Dude same! And I hate how I drive to one store only to find out they don’t have filters or only 1 battery!? Like bro you are a space store! You should have everything!!! 😂 the game is fun but I’m annoyed by how fast the cells drain
This was a very useful and helpful video and well presented but please sort your audio channels out for recording. It is really difficult to concentrate with just your voice in one ear. Especially as ive got an infection in that ear atm haha
@@hugmuffinzz6559 Awesome cant wait to see more form you. This game definately needs more guides as quite a few things are not explained in the base game. Like finding explosive which are contraband but you have to sell them at black market in some sectors
Never flipped a breaker or tripped a breaker while changing those cards. I have had oxygen issues with a filter that had run out, 3 filters fine, one was done, but oxygen wouldn't build until I removed that one.
Is the trader open right at the start? I have locked areas in Atlas station and I don't see traders. So I was thinking it's locked. I ran out of power cells pretty fast and need more. I've only done 2 hulls so far but I keep hitting stuff. Think I'm going to start over
This has happened to me once. It was while I was hauling cargo and I tried to go to a different gate than the mission. Reloading the game fixed it for me.
My only issue or complain is when driving in 1st person when you tilt your truck up the front of your truck blocks your view, shouldn't your view move up as well.
how do i find my trailer after you die?? i died in a solarstrom, can´t see it on the map. but the job still says deliver at bay something, but i dont have my trailer on my truck.
I have never had any luck finding a trailer in that sort of situation. After a certain amount of time it just becomes abandoned and you get fined for not completing the job.
I found the default FOV to be very narrow. It was at 50 degrees. That's not normal for driving sims. I put mine out to 75 and is much nicer. I can see debris just fine now. Not too mention i can see both screens.
Left voice channel only. Haha. Dude this is actually a good video after my initial fury. I thought you didn’t narrate it. But I thought to check for subtitles and boom there they were. But why did you add um’s. Then it hit me. Your voice audio is only on the left channel. If anyone is like me and only uses one earbud. Here is why.
I don't suppose you could tell me what the 'F' key would be for an Xbox player, cuz I didn't know you could switch camera views while in third person. It would make that real handy during those pesky solar flares.
I am unsure of the specific button, but while you're in the external view in the top right it should show you a "change camera" button. Thats the one you need.
@@hugmuffinzz6559 after some experimentation I have discovered that you can use the d-pad on the Xbox controller to switch camera views wild and third person I'm still unsure if you can zoom in or not but at least that's something I'm still waiting for the game devs to update their game for certain bug fixes regarding quest lines with Dusty bear and moon baby.
Anyone else having a problem with achievements not unlocking or progressing? I had done about 3 contracts for Everycrop before realizing the achievement for doing 5 Everycrop contracts was still locked and at 0%. Having the same issues with other similar achievements as well
Truck systems are all goverend by either a battery or UCC. Replace those and they will work again! Holes in the hull are fixed by getting in your spacesuit and welding them. General hull is fixed at the repair shop.
I find it odd that the low-capacity batteries give you more energy per buck than the higher capacity ones. I wonder why you would pay 200% for 150% capacity, or even 500% for a 200% capacity battery. I'd rather have 5 low-cost batteries than one high-cost battery. Anyone got a clue to the logic here? Do you all run the low-costs ones or the high-end cells? I'm struggling to make a profit hauling loads around the core systems as it is. I'm up to level 7 and still struggle to afford the airfilters... 🤨
I typically find most of my high capacity batteries as salvage at this point but if I am in a system with discounted energy I won't hesitate to buy them either. I don't mind paying a little extra for the convenience of the longer lasting battery. If money is tight I just buy the cheaper version though.
I had an issue with the video where my voice was only coming in through the left channel. You should be able to hear it much better if you use headphones.
My earlier videos had a problem with split tracks that were only in one ear. I have since fixed it so all of the newer videos(after this one) won't have that any longer.
Dude I can't even get through a warp ring. Wtf am I doing wrong? I've tried at least 20 times. What in the actual fuck? Then other truckers just fucking blast right through me when I take too long. Was loving this game until my first warp gate. FUCKING FUCK..!!??!!
I uninstalled the game after getting stuck in a death loop, repeatedly dying from a lack of air filters. I checked multiple shops, but none had air filters. Eventually got bankrupt.
Medusa Six has two shops in the same station and is your best bet for finding supplies in an emergency. I thought that the auto essentials store would have them as well. Sorry for your bad luck! You could always start a new game but fiddle with the settings to reduce parts consumption and prices just to enjoy the game without the stress.
You can actually save scum a shop to reroll what's on sale. Just save before you hit the Mag Lock, then just reload your save if whats your looking for is not available.
It doesn't take too much time to dock. If you're having trouble just drive up to it head on and spin around. Most of the time I put the port right in my left or right window and than spin from there.
This is literally the gameplay of Star Trucker, and none of these are optional hidden tips. 😂 By the way, this is tip number eleven, the only real tip of the video. 🤣 Tip #11: Disable Auto-Assessment while driving in a straight line. This way, you can travel without consuming engine fuel. ⛽
yeah my issue is i was struggling to afford air filters and power cells and died form lack of o2, and then i had 5000 in bank debt and still couldn't afford basic parts, so i tried to do a job to make some money but once again died from no O2 before i could deliver the load. so now im over 11000 dollars in debt and still cant afford parts to keep my truck running. i feel like im stuck in a loop of taking a job to pay off debt and then dying before being able to finish it.

Good stuff. Any tips on diving like connecting a trailer. I hit mine and lasted a long time till i ran out of oxygen.
You can pilot the truck with your suit on. This is useful if the O2 goes out due to batteries or filters failing.

You could always start a new game but fiddle with the settings to reduce parts consumption and prices just to enjoy the game without the stress.
You can actually save scum a shop to reroll what's on sale. Just save before you hit the Mag Lock, then just reload your save if whats your looking for is not available.
Can I play this on xbox one x?
I'm playing it on series s on game pass, should be "free" if you have game pass
@@NoahsArk999 one x not series x
2:40, that isn't the hood, but the roof.
Well that makes sense since you can't see the hood ornament! Thanks for pointing that out!
might want to check your stereo mix, random youtuber.
Thank you! I have since fixed the issue. My mono mic was recording in stereo so only the left side had my voice. I appreciate you pointing it out!
Bro please make it without the music when your talking please
Is it the game audio or the game music that was too loud?
@hugmuffinzz6559 im petty sure its the in game music, its like trying to listen to you while in a chuck E cheese birthday party
my goodness having to listen to the background music the entire time was torturous 😒 video was helpful though
For debris field, i follow the NPCs they’re pathing is good
I wanted to give this gave a try but after I spent too much time trying to dock and how the game has no strafe..It's a hard pass.
It doesn't take too much time to dock. If you're having trouble just drive up to it head on and spin around. Most of the time I put the port right in my left or right window and than spin from there.
This is literally the gameplay of Star Trucker, and none of these are optional hidden tips. 😂
By the way, this is tip number eleven, the only real tip of the video. 🤣
Tip #11: Disable Auto-Assessment while driving in a straight line. This way, you can travel without consuming engine fuel. ⛽
Most of your tips are just things that are straight up on your screen
Music is WAY to loud
Thank you for letting me know!! I have been refining the audio each and every video and I think all of my more recent uploads sound much better.
More like energy cell replacement sim
It can certainly feel like that! Lol. Once you get the energy management down and have some cash to afford the good batteries it gets much easier!
yeah my issue is i was struggling to afford air filters and power cells and died form lack of o2, and then i had 5000 in bank debt and still couldn't afford basic parts, so i tried to do a job to make some money but once again died from no O2 before i could deliver the load. so now im over 11000 dollars in debt and still cant afford parts to keep my truck running. i feel like im stuck in a loop of taking a job to pay off debt and then dying before being able to finish it.
Ouch that sounds painful :(
@@hugmuffinzz6559 idk know what to do, I feel like I need to restart the game
Did you end up restarting?
upgrade from cardboard boxes bro is broke
I kind of just collect them as I run across them but you're right, I am overdue to buy some of the bigger containers!
Dumb question is there like a cargo net thing you can buy to keep your shit on the fucking shelves
There isn't, but if you put a case on a shelf and open it, it won't fly anywhere. I have another tip video with more useful information here: th-cam.com/video/MUPIjJANxdk/w-d-xo.html
Don’t bother, game is trash.
