WARNING: STARQUEST IS UNDERGOING MAJOR CHANGES, AND THE WIKI IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Welcome to StarQuest: 3.0

You have just made it to Trinitos Alpha. New settlers, and refugees from Regalis, Digitalia, and Defalos alike, we all begin in the same place. The station that will start you off on your long, long, unique and personalized journey.

You have four choices that are immediately present the moment you join the server. Will you take a public shuttle to the land of mushrooms, Cetallion? Or how about the mountainous food planet of Loyavas? Rakuria, the tropical wool planet, and Grun, the desert mining planet are also major contenders.

To make a ship, Rakuria is obviously the planet to go to. After all, the polymer grows on trees. But some are up for more of an adventure. It is all up to you. Everything you will ever need to know about SQ is located here, from planet listings, to the list of important players, you should have no problem getting along in Starquest as long as you read the Wiki.

[Legacy Wikia Page Message] At long last, your journey has come to an end and you've reached Interstellar Station. Your colony ship has just docked. Finally, you've arrived in the solar system that is to be your new home!

From here, you have a lot of options ahead of you. You still need to aquire a ship to take you from Interstellar Station, find a new planet to build your home, and decide what to do with your new life.

Will you find a green planet to cultivate your own self-sufficient farmland? Will you find a dangerous planet to explore and conquer? Or will you arm yourself to the teeth and become a fearsome pirate warlord?

This wiki will help you with those crucial decisions and more.

Tutorials

Server Resources

There are several resources users can take advantage of to further their StarQuest experience.

You will need to decide where to live. Different planets offer different pros and cons. 

  • Mob Distribution - Most mobs are only found on a specific planet or two. This list will help you find what planet a mob resides on.

Ranking Up

Once you've established your new home on a planet, your next big choice will be what path to take with your life. You could become an honorable citizen of the colonies and make your fortune through trade. Or, if you want to strike out as a rebellious soul, you could live outside the law and become a pirate, making a living by stealing and bounty hunting. Some ships are available only to one path or the other. The choice is up to you. You can read about both paths and related info here. 

Factions, Towns, Nations, and Alliances

Once you've decided which path to follow, you need to be in a town, faction, or nation. This will help you decide how to make one, and show you a map of the existing towns, factions, nations, and alliances. You can usually find a place on the forums to apply to one of those depicted on the map.

  • Factions - shows what a faction is and how to make one
  • Space Stations - details on creating a space station (currently not allowed)
  • Alliances - shows what an alliance is and how to make one CURRENTLY A STUB
  • Political Map - shows the current political status of the server, including most groups
  • List of Political Organizations - A comprehensive list of all Towns, Nations, Factions and Alliances, grouped by planet

Shipbuilding

No matter which path you choose, and whatever profession you may become, you will need a ship. The starfighter you purchased on Interstellar Station may be serviceable for awhile, but soon enough you'll want something better. Sure, you could buy a ship from someone else, but why not build it yourself? It's not hard, and it's very rewarding to fly a ship you made with your own blocky hands.

  • Ship Types - Different ships have different sizes, speeds, and capabilities. Learn about them here.

Other Types of Building

If you're building a planet-side base or home, you'll want to make life as safe and prosperous as you can. These links can help with that

  • Space Stations - Build your outpost in space
  • WorldGuard - Defend your property against those who would break it. Can also deny PvP.
  • Advanced Machinery - How to build everything from an automatic mining machine to self managed farms.
  • Elevators - Easily create your own lifts between floors in your buildings.
