Hi all!

I started a new game, I generated a few manageable ships editing the starting options, one militar and other from android faction. One of them was just a derelict, empty. The other I could not enter bc it wasn't have a pressure door for my shuttle. Even, I tried a space walk from one derelict to another, but the astronauts hit an invisible wall (they cannot linger far away from starting derelict).

How can I get inside that derelict? If it is not explored, I cannot scavenge it... Do I have to scan it with an antenna? (Should I build one in my base or in the new ship?) I even tried to build a pressure door on it... Can't do.

Cheers, spacefarers!

You can use a shuttle to dock in empty space near a hole or damaged section of a derelict ship. The shuttle will create a platform for where it'll dock and manage crew and cargo. Your crew can then can be ordered to space walk/fly from the platform to the hole. You should be able to find some floor to stand on and start exploring.

When you draft a shuttle, you should see a new button show up next to the draft button. Use that dock button to show where you can dock a shuttle near derelict ships. Pick a spot, and the shuttle should head over and make a dock platform there.
