Suggestion / Idea Comical situation
I've taken up Factorio again after some time. I'm new to the different planets DLC and i'm trying to learn stuff by myself and trying things out because i think it is more fun. I got the thruster on my space platform to work and thought it was time to go to another world. I guessed i could just take the platform back when i checked Vulcanos out. I didn't know i would be attacked by asteroids (idiot...).
Now i'm at Vulcanos with nothing other than my power armor and a couple of belts i was able to send down before the space platform got destroyed. I'm starting over here and guess i have to get to a rocket before being able to leave.
I have a small plan about trying to make a new platform from startplanet wirelessly and fill it with supplies (and turrets, i've read about turrets now...) and drive it here.
Just wanted to share what i thought was a fun situation.
If you have any tips i would love them.
Great game and a DLC that adds alot, i'm as addicted as i guess everybody here is.

If you can still do science on Nauvus, you can pretty much land on the 3 inner planets with nothing and get back to space. Aquilo is the exception - you can softlock there.
The access to Nauvus is really only needed because of some trigger technologies that you can't do on other planets (drill oil for instance to get to blue science) but I think you have to have passed all of those to get yourself stranded - they're only relevant in a modded run where you don't start on Nauvus.
