Released: Steam main-game progression and 14 achievement conditions · Updated 2026-10-13
Classifies onboard systems by power, movement, damage, and storage. Covers stops that fuel alone cannot solve and responses to fires.
Power and Stopping Checks
Place an object on the fuel platform and press the adjacent button to increase Energy. Push the large right-facing button for propulsion; when steam builds, vent it on the left to accelerate.
| Location / condition | What to do | Check / caution |
|---|---|---|
| Fuel platform | Place a box or similar object and press the loading button | Check the Energy gauge |
| Propulsion button | Push in to run the engine | Consumes fuel and builds steam |
| Steam vent | Press when the steam gauge is high | Acceleration and pressure relief |
| Upper brake | The dropping brake stops the ship | Use before collecting fuel |
| Sail | Open when wind is available | Switch to the engine on windless nights |
Extinguishing and Repairing Are Separate Tasks
The fire hose extinguishes flames; the repair tool restores system durability. Check durability indicators for fuel, engine, sails, and vacuum, rather than continuing repairs while leaving flames burning.
Burning explosive barrels starts fires, so prepare easy hose access before feeding one in. If an outdoor storm is causing heavy damage, first move under a roof for shelter.
Hooks When Power Is Unavailable
Pull the ship with the front or rear red hooks. In muddy water, connect the front hook to a fixed hook ahead and winch out using the onboard button. Do not keep driving while connected; detach after escaping.
Counting Cargo and Distance
Each onboard hook holds one item. Hoarder requires 15 objects aboard simultaneously, rather than a cumulative total burned.
The distance counter accumulates across multiple saves and playthroughs. Do not waste fuel assuming you must reach 9001 in one run.
