Mars[edit]

The thin martian atmosphere contains useful gasses for growing plants and base pressurization. Mars suffers from storms that damage solar cells and blow away loose items. The temperature is Earthlike during the day.

"A desolate dusty red ball, Mars features more varied terrain that can reach into the sky, and a chilly atmosphere that's no good for breathing, but maybe it can be used for something ..."

Loulan[edit]

DISCONTINUED (To play on Loulan click custom world underneath the description of the planet selection, and select the Loulan preset. (This is no longer possible due to the custom world option being removed.))

Loulan has a breathable atmosphere and the temperature range is not hazardous. It has ruined structures scattered across the terrain which can be scavenged for building supplies. The player starts with a Hardsuit Backpack, and a Headlamp, but without a helmet or suit and this is not a serious handicap. A Jetpack is not part of the starting equipment. Battery charging is not a matter of life and death, but without batteries the headlamp will not light your way at night.

The greatest challenge is food since seeds are not part of the starting equipment. The player must either scavenge some seeds from ruins, trade, or use an Organics Printer to create them. While the gas mix is compatible with farming, the low night temperature is not, so a greenhouse must be operated at the right temperature. The easiest way is to open up the airlock during the day with warm 20 degrees air, and close it at night.

Venus[edit]

"Unvarying extreme temperatures and ultra-high pressures make Venus no place for the faint-hearted. Only the most accomplished Stationeers will survive on our once-sister planet, now a barren rock. Dig deep, or go home."

The starting kit doesn't contain seeds, but it contains the equipment required for trading. And unlike on some other worlds, a portable water tank is also provided in the starting kit, however setting up water bottle filling will require some work.

One of the main difficulties of Venus is that it doesn't contain any ice.
