You are able to buy co-ordinates for wrecks in space at the contracts board, then warp to the co-ordinates to salvage it.
* Note - Supplies rare blueprints to use in research facility on your Space Station - no use unless you have a research facility, and plan to build ships at your shipyard.
There will be several pieces of wreckage to scan. Rare blueprints will be available only through this method.
Sometimes when you warp to a wreckage location you may not see it... use your mini radar in the top left corner to find the direction of it and move towards it until it is in view range
You use the scanning laser to detect the parts in the wreckage. Careful scanning will be required to ensure you salvage the correct parts in the correct order.
Although a larger salvage beam may be built at your space station shipyard (or purchased from other players) it will do noting to help at this stage of game development.
Some parts will by there nature hide other parts. eg the shields. Some parts may explode destroying other parts when you try to retrieve them. eg the reactor.
As long as parts are retrieved in the correct order, you will be able to collect all parts. You will need to scan first at a lower energy level to determine what it is.
Then Scan it at a higher energy to extract to blueprints of the device. Too high a level will result in no gain. The higher energy scan will most probably destroy the wreckage piece during blueprint retrieval.
Sometimes the resulting explosion will destroy other wreckage fragments nearby. The blueprints can be used on the Research facility on your space station
Information on scan results
- The Class of the blueprint refers to which ship it is used on as per the table in Space Craft
- The type should be obvious, armor, shields, computer, warp drive ect
- Partial blueprint means exactly that, you only have part of it, doing research on the partial will complete it.
- If you get the message "Already obtained", then you already have the blueprint fragment.
When you have some partial blueprints, you can research them to full blueprints in your research facility, then build them in your shipyard.
Wreck Salvaging
First, analyse what the wreck piece might be by beaming until it just turns pink.
You will get one of the following messages:
Sometimes the message is appended with 'unable to scan' meaning the emission is coming from another piece and the one you just scanned could be anything, you have to find the source and deal with it first, then rescan to find what it really is
Safe ones can be done strait up with no consequences
you will need to beam to red to get the blueprint
Beam too much and you get nothing
The computer also has the hull blueprint and if not beamed enough, you will only get the computer.
eg, if a warp drive is present it will produce leakage that stops you scanning the reactor, if you go ahead and scan the reactor first it will destroy all other bits
Messages
concentrated magnetron emissions - shields - safe
alcurbierre field leakage - warp drive - safe
semiconductor tacyon reflection - electronics - safe
antiproton containment matrix - capacitor - kills electronics
databank reflection - computer/hull - safe
toroidddal plasma confinement - reactor - kills everything
ionised partical emissions - propulsion - kills warp
gravitron partical emissions - grav gen - safe
dense carbon/metal compound - armour - safe
The results from the wreck are only blueprint fragments and need to be researched in to full blown blueprints at your research facility
Then you may build the parts at your shipyard
