Now, build them in this particular order: Remember what I said before: keep an eye on requirements and consumption and build extra power sources or water extractors if needed. With this basic setup, it’s time to start investing in the more complex/advanced buildings. Water is required, also for producing oxygen, so start with 1 Water extractor to have everything running smoothly. You will have to always keep an eye on your power consumption and add extra Collectors and even generators to keep things running smoothly. Go for both types of power early on: build a small Solar Power Panel and a small Wind Generator, then add the Power Collector to store excess energy and offer you back-up when there are no winds during the night time. If your crew can’t breathe, they won’t live.
PLANETBASE BUILD ORDER GENERATOR
You should always start with an O2 Generator and then connecting the airlock to it. Now, with that in mind, let’s start building. But I recommend being patient and waiting to have some resources before improving your base because resource collecting here is pretty slow! Since you have enough to rush through building things in Planetbase, you will usually do so. Putting them to good use and not rushing is vital early on.

You will start the game with limited resources, but enough to last you for a while.

PLANETBASE BUILD ORDER PLUS
There are different strategies one cam follow, especially in the later stages of the game, but below I have what I consider to be the best way to start your base, plus some general knowledge that you might find helpful, especially if you’re just starting to play the game. I am here to help you get started and try to avoid the inevitable failure of your new colony by sharing some Planetbase tips and tricks – a guide to build up the perfect base from the ground up and keep you playing for as long as possible. But it won’t be easy, as resources are scarce, dangers are everywhere and… well… you’re usually just about to fail.

I love the direction city building sims are going: I absolutely loved playing Banished and now I am totally enjoying Planetbase, a city/base building that brings in survival and huge levels of challenge into play, giving you the chance to colonize a new planet.
