Techtonica tips

General tips

1. Carefully read all instructions during the tutorial.
2. Do not forget to take with you lockpick at the beginning of the game. You won't get far without it.
3. Especially at the start of the game it is worth collecting all the resources you come across. You never know when they may come in handy.
4. If the area is too dark, you can place several light-generating objects instead of one. In many games such an action does not have a spectacular result, but in Techtonica it makes a noticeable difference.
5. A little light can also be let in by making holes in the ceiling of the dungeon.
6. If at a certain stage of the game you feel that you are lost, check the current target in the Journal.

Building tips

1. If you make a mistake while building a production line, you can press the Q key to undo the last action you performed.
2. It is useful to know the basic keyboard shortcuts that open specific options. These are: T - Tech Tree, M - Map, P - Power, Tab - Schematics and inventory, J - Journal, L - Log, B - Databank.
3. At the bottom of the screen you will find a quick access bar. Place frequently used equipment there..
4. To unlock new abilities in Tech Tree, various resources are required. Some must be placed on the ground to be recognized by the game. For example, if it is necessary to have 10 Purple Cores to develop technology and we have that much in the inventory, but in the Tech Tree they are not detected, we only need to put them on the ground.
5. At a certain stage of the game, it will be required to have quite a number of Research Cores. It is worth putting them one on top of the other so that they do not take up too much space. If you want to organize them even more, use Core Composer for this. We discuss this in a separate article linked below.
