Direct answer
This hub is the fastest way to move from broad Solarpunk questions into the specific page that solves your current blocker.
If you are new, read in this order:
- Beginner's Guide
- Things to Do First
- Progression Guide
If you are already stuck, jump directly to the resource, Airship, Backpack, or platform page that matches the blocker.
Beginner guides
The first set of pages is about avoiding the most expensive early mistakes.
These pages stay close to the current official beginner guidance, especially around Soft Mode, water, the Survival Guide, crop timing, storms, and the fact that Wheat is not on the starting island.
Popular now
These guides are useful starting points when progression starts to stall:
- Backpack Upgrade — for inventory-space issues and outdated location videos
- Solarpunk on PS5 — for PS5 price, online players, PS Plus, and cloud streaming
- Transport Drones — for automation and remote-drill logistics
- Map and Islands — for players who want routes without unverified coordinate claims
Resource guides
The resource section focuses on the materials players need once the starting island stops answering everything.
- How to Get Wheat
- How to Get Copper
- How to Get Algae
- How to Get Sand
- How to Get Cobalt
- Map and Islands
- How to Get Silicon
- How to Get Paprika
- Transport Drones
- How to Get Iron
- How to Get Seeds
These pages answer important progression blockers, which is exactly why some of them remain conservative until exact route details are properly verified.
For Germany-specific platform intent, use the localized pages instead of inferring region pricing from the English hub.
Airship guides
Airship progression is where Solarpunk starts opening outward instead of only inward.
These pages separate what is already known from what still requires release-version evidence.
Backpack and inventory notes
Backpack questions are a little different from normal guides because the feature has already passed through launch-week fixes and temporary disabling.
Use that page when you want the current status rather than an outdated location video.
Farming guides
Farming becomes more important once you stop improvising and start trying to stabilize systems.
Multiplayer and platform guides
Some user questions are less about progression and more about whether the game fits the way they want to play.
Automation and late-route guides
Once you are past the starter island, these pages help with longer routes and logistics:
Recommended progression path
The short version is:
- stabilize water and crops
- learn the Survival Guide systems
- stop over-searching the starting island
- reach Airship progress
- widen your resource access
- improve farming protection and later systems
