All right, time to get crackin'. Remember that 'New World' button? Let's mash it!
Quickstart puts you into the 'Easy Start 1' scenario (more on this in a moment), but in 'Creative' mode (as opposed to 'Survival' mode). What's the difference? Well, similar to Minecraft's Creative mode, in this game you will get infinite supplies, instant build times and no death and that is why you will never pick it.
Select 'Custom World' and you can do whatever you want with the World settings (including all of those from Quickstart if you really want to).
Now, in the interest of getting into the bloody game, I will postpone the explanation of the Scenarios and World Options until next time. Suffice it to say for now, a great place to start is with the 'Easy Start 1' scenario with the default settings shown...
and Advanced settings changed thusly...
finally, we rename the world and give it a description...
Mash the 'OK' button, and whoila! You are somewhere out in the asteroid field on your own little outpost consisting of a mining platform, 3 small ships, and one large ship!
Press 'v' to move the view into 3rd person perspective...
hold the 'Alt' key down to move your camera around for a selfie...
then use the mouse wheel to zoom out, and...
get an overview of the whole operation. Sweet!
So, before we go, let's take a little spin around the platform and check out some basic controls...
