I'm curious what little neat things you guys have found or adopted while playing.

Could be for base building, finding ships or multitools, or whatever.

What's your favorite?

Edit: I recently found out you can shut down Sentinels on a dissonant world, but the dissonant resonators stay up, so you can run around whacking all of them without retaliation. Lots of frolicking from group to group picking up loot from dead Sentinels and unarmed dissonant resonators.

It also completes all the Autophage "kill 8 sentinels" quests in one go if you've stacked up on those.

Melee + jetpack. If timed right flings you forward. Very useful.

I am min maxing my jetpack to make this travel more viable than sprinting, it can launch you up steep mountains super fast.

I kind of hate how this janky combo is basically necessary to navigate the terrain at any decent speed. And sprinting is almost worthless because the tiniest bump disables it. Movement in the game is kind of garbage IMO.

Useful how?

Asking b/c I think my play style is different from yours, so the advantages aren't immediately coming to mind for me.

It creates a burst of speed allowing you to move faster than you otherwise could.

I won't do it justice via a text description, but there are YouTube videos that include it as a tip.

YouTube's been bitching about adblockers recently, so I've low-key been avoiding them :: insert howling wolf-cub meme here ::

I imagine with some fooling around I can figure it out now that I know it exists.
