==Getting Started== {{#ev:youtube|5dH3MA20t30|450|right}} [[File:Aegis.png|250px|left]] First, you should spend a few moments getting acquainted with your [[Grappling Hook]], as you'll be stuck in the Revival Chamber until you figure it out. The Grappling Hook is easy to get used to, simply hold down right click to aim, and release to fire. Use {{Key|SHIFT}} to reel in the line, and {{Key|CTRL}} to extend it. Use the {{Key|W}}, {{Key|A}}, {{Key|S}}, and {{Key|D}} keys to swing around while dangling from the rope. If you are suspended from the rope you can press the {{Key|SPACE}} to activate a boost that will pull you towards the end of the rope. Keep in mind that if you are standing up, even on a steep hill, the rocket boost will not work so you may need to jump before activating the boost. The first thing you should do once you exit the chamber is to find some databanks. You can use the scanning tool on your [[gauntlet]] (default {{Key|4}} on your toolbar) to gain 25 [[knowledge]] from each databank. In later biomes, databanks will give more knowledge. Alternatively, you can also scan any object on the island for a much smaller amount of knowledge. Once you have enough knowledge points you can open the knowledge tree and unlock shipbuilding. This allows you to use the multi-tool [[crafting]] menu to craft an [[Assembly Station|assembly station]] and a [[shipyard]] which are essential for building [[Ship Components|ship components]] and your first [[Ships|ship]]. Before you can begin building, you will need some [[resources]]. If you're lucky, there may be some intact assembly stations or shipyards on your island which you can use instead of crafting your own. If not, you will need to start out by gathering some [[metal]], found in rock nodes usually on the sides or underneath an island, which is used in a majority of [[schematics]]. [[Atlas Shard|Atlas shards]] can also be found in some of the metal nodes and are required for an [[Atlas Core]] which allows your ship to float. [[Wood]] is used in a few schematics and can be used to make lightweight decks for your ships. It is also essential for your first ship since [[sails]] will be your primary source of propulsion until you unlock [[engines]].
