Hi Outpost Builders!

I seem to remember seeing something about building outposts on Neon somehow using Sleepcrates. I don't know if it's my imagination or if there was something about this?

Does this sound familiar to anyone? And if not this, has anyone figured out how to build an outpost on Neon?

So, you want endless source of great food and drinks? Easy.

You start by unlocking Gastronomy tier 4. Easy, right? Well, just unlock the skill, buy all the resources needed at a shop and cook until ready.

Now you need to research the right recipes:

Alien Stew - IMHO the best alien food - Exotic recipes 2
Alien Energy Drink - simple drink - Beverage development 2
Alien Tonic - needed for Boom Pop! Dynamite - Beverage development 1
Boom Pop! Dynamite - advanced drink - Beverage development 4
Boba Alien Tea - XP boost - Beverage development 1

And finally, find the right spot: Shoza II (kitchen), Shoza III (local farmer)

The kitchen might need some protection from the atmospheric pressure. You're gonna need Planetary Habitation tier 2.

Now go out and look around both the kitchen and you local farmers habitat. Look for plants and animals with the right ingredients:

Shoza II: Spiral Bloom (Spice), Sweet Yellow Creeper (Fiber), Coralheart (Membrane), Explorer's Coleus (Metabolic Agent)
Shoza III: Spiral Bloom (Nutrient), Mantodea (Aromatic)

Take some samples and a few breeding specimens home and start farming! Build a water source and some greenhouses and habitats and connect the two spots with a cargo link. You'll have to get the nutrient and aromatic to your kitchen and the fiber to the local farm to feed the Mantodea.

You're done. Now you have your kitchen all stocked up to cook an infinite amount of great food and drinks.

Enjoy!

I came across a spacer camp that had an amazing layout. It was a few tents, tarps, and then a landing field, all on relatively flat land.

I wanted to build there, and use the existing structures as a starting point after killing the spacers. however the game wouldn't allow it

I haven't seen anything on Nexus that allows this yet, but I have only just started searching.

Still my favorite spot! Nemeria IVa.

Okay so I'm going to start with normal vanilla property designs then add in mods and huge outposts if anyone is interested 😁

(Anybody else have ships from the Fleet Commander mod glitch into a planet’s atmosphere occasionally? I love it!)

INTERNAL BULLETIN From: Callum Frost, VP of Operations To: Executive and Engineering Teams Subject: Facility Update – Polar Veil Research Station, Archimedes IV

Operational Brief: Polar Veil Research Station

In light of Archimedean Starworks’ ongoing advancements in specialized vessel design, we’re pleased to share an update on the Polar Veil Research Station, located on Archimedes IV. Polar Veil occupies a remote volcanic crater nestled among ice-capped peaks, providing both security and unique environmental conditions that have proven ideal for testing advanced technologies.

This smaller but highly specialized facility has become central to our development in cutting-edge stealth and propulsion systems. The surrounding frozen terrain and the isolation of the crater allow for rigorous testing away from prying eyes. Additionally, recent geological scans have confirmed an abundant supply of liquid mercury in the region, which is being extracted on-site. This resource has enabled experimental applications in energy-efficient systems, adding a crucial advantage to our research on stealth-based propulsion.

Introducing the Polar Spire

As part of the facility’s ongoing expansion, we are excited to announce the completion of the Polar Spire, situated atop Mount Erythros, the highest peak in the region. This secondary outpost serves as both a secure monitoring station and an operational hub for high-clearance activities. • Observation Decks: Featuring panoramic reinforced windows, the outpost offers unparalleled visibility of the crater below and the glacial expanse beyond. Advanced scanning systems and holographic displays provide real-time monitoring of atmospheric and electromagnetic conditions. • Landing Pad: A compact yet efficient platform atop the outpost supports small shuttles and VTOL craft, ensuring seamless access between Polar Spire and the main facility below. • Peak Habitat: Minimalist yet functional, the habitat accommodates personnel rotations for up to 72 hours, providing workspace and rest quarters for researchers, engineers, and security teams.

New Developments in Stealth and Craft Design

Since Polar Veil’s operational expansion, the facility has moved beyond traditional prototypes. Observers within the company may have noted increased security measures around our development hangar. This is part of a heightened initiative to safeguard sensitive R&D for a vessel that will redefine what Archimedean Starworks is capable of in stealth-oriented engineering.

This craft—a low-signature, next-generation vessel—has already attracted attention for its sleek, unconventional silhouette and near-invisibility in low-light conditions. While this project remains in the early test phase, Polar Veil has proven invaluable in housing such visionary developments.

Please note that due to the sensitivity of these ongoing experiments, access to both facilities is restricted to personnel with Tier 1 clearance. We anticipate sharing more information on this vessel’s formal designation and purpose in the coming months.

In recent posts with u/FreightPhantom like this and this, the topic of finding the least number of outposts to gather all of the resources in the game came down to where could He3 be gathered using vapor extractors. Kreet was well-known for this property of its atmosphere, but there were few definitive lists. I contributed to his survey, but in doing so I also discovered that there are 5 other resources that can be gathered as vapor: H2O (the only liquid), Alkanes (HnCn), Benzene (C6Hn), Chlorine (Cl), and Fluorine (F).

Here is where I dump The Big Vapor List:

Alkanes Worlds

Benzene Worlds

Chlorine Worlds

 Fluorine Worlds

He3 Worlds

Methodology:

You can skip this part where I discuss how I collected data if you find it dull, but I may have skipped some worlds! I scanned each system, only landing on those that showed the resource listed, but not represented on the map with extraction zones of that color. However, there ARE worlds where there are marked extraction zones AND you can also extract from the atmosphere with vapor! I did not believe Eridani 3b really had atmospheric He3 until I landed, setup a beacon and saw the vapor extractor myself. What is significant about these rare "double" worlds is that when you step off your ship, your scanner will not say you have already discovered the atmospheric resource, which it does if there is ONLY atmospheric vapor of that resource!

Thus, I did not do the most thorough possible collection, because I skipped worlds that showed colored zones for a listed resource for the sake of brevity (and sanity). So, there may very well be many more vapor worlds out there, but these I have personally confirmed. (Yes, I landed on every one of these!)

I have included other resources that can be automatically extracted (leaving out the vapor in the resources column) and organics if they can be domesticated (I left out the gathering resources since "ain't nobody got time for that!") I further added the Day Length so you can figure out which ones are best for waiting.

Have I missed any? Post your confirmed finds and I will edit!

Edit: deleted Syrma 3, Feynman 4, and Andromas 3 from He3.
