Forever Skies: Quick beginner's guide

  1. Use cruise control - during a flight, you can set cruise control (lock speed) and leave the helm to move around the ship and its exterior (e.g. to add fuel).
  2. Don't be afraid of running out of fuel - if you run out of fuel, the ship will stop in the air without falling to the ground, and fuel can be produced on the ship.
  3. Explore to get new blueprints - you get them by finding storage media, mainly inside cabinets and on furniture in locations. Scan them to add information about an item to the database.
  4. Don't waste food - any spoiled food can be re-cooked to make it edible again, at the expense of quality. Food in containers does not spoil.
  5. Build and use a bed - by using a bed you can speed up the time and regain energy. In addition, by changing the time of day you can take advantage of other benefits: e.g. at night you are not threatened by photophobia.
