Honeycomb First Base Water and Power Setup

Where should I place the first base?

Choose the safe area highlighted by the opening objectives, close to natural water and with enough room for the multi-room. The location is practical because the water pump can sit by the river while the wind turbine and indoor facilities remain within its operating network.

The Sota 7 map guide explains the route to the suggested area. Before building, gather materials with the early resource route and keep spare food from the flora guide.

How do I connect water and electricity?

Equip the drone builder and open the building menu. Place a water pump at a natural water source, then place a wind turbine nearby. When the producer is selected, its operating range appears as a green sphere; facilities inside that sphere can connect without visible cables.

The footage displays example capacity information after construction, but those values should not be treated as universal until tested in the current version. Inspect the finished structure before adding more consumers.

Which stations should I build first?

The tutorial sequence demonstrates a multi-room with a door, indoor grow bed, pollinator pipe, fabricator, multi-cooker, water dispenser, and bed. Build the minimum powered shell first, then add machines as their resource requirements become clear.

Place a locker within the station’s operating range. Nearby storage can act as automatic crafting input, reducing repeated inventory trips. For immunity planning, see the first-day survival guide.
