Dyson Sphere Program is a game about making automated production lines to create resources. With the right materials and configurations, you can make just about anything you want. Eventually though, you’ll run into a bit of a resource issue. You see, Dyson Sphere Program doesn’t make it easy to get titanium, an otherwise easy-to-mine mineral that you’ll not find on your starting planet.
This is a problem, because titanium is required to make the materials needed to research any object that needs structure matrices. You’ll need to get some key upgrades to make your first venture into outer space, set up a small mining colony on that planet, then find a way to bring back your newly mined resource.
So in order to help you out with this slightly complicated learning curve, we thought we’d give you all the information needed to learn how to mine titanium in Dyson Sphere Program, how to get into space in the first place, and what steps you can take to automate the process of transporting this valuable mineral between planets.
Since this is a space game, you’re soon forced to find new items on other planets. It’s highly likely that the planet you start the game at will not have any titanium. Your first task is to research how to fly to the stars beyond. You’ll need the following upgrades to fly to space and efficiently grab your first batch of titanium:
We also recommend upgrading universe exploration up to level two. This requires ten electromagnetic matrices to show all the veins in your current planet, then 200 electromagnetic matrices to show the vein reserves in your current planetary system. This will give you an idea of which planets have titanium on them.
After all the preparation is done, double tap, then hold the space bar down until the perspective shifts. You’ll now be in soaring mode. This can be a bit tricky to control, but the key thing to remember is that every time you press a button, you’ll consume power. Here are all the controls for soaring through outer space:
You’ll be looking to land on the nearest planet that has titanium on it, which tend to be planets that have their distance measured in astronomical units, or ‘AU’ for short, rather than light years. Landing on a planet requires you to slow down to at least 200 metres per second, which you can do by holding alt while in the planet’s orbit.
How to transport materials between planets in Dyson Sphere Program
The big downside for now is that, for the time being at least, you’ll need to manually transport titanium from one planet to another. This is as simple as picking up the item, flying to the other planet, then dumping the item in a storage container. Doing this can get tedious and you’ll want to automate this process as soon as possible.
Once you’ve constructed an interstellar logistics station on both planets, lay down some conveyor belts and a sorter to begin loading items into the station. To transport items between interstellar logistics stations, you need to assign the material you want to obtain in the interstellar tower as ‘remote demand’.
