Starmancer was released a few days ago and we have prepared this article to show you how to build and destroy, so let's get started.

What is Starmancer about?

The title corresponds to the construction and management simulation video game developed by Ominux Games and released by Chucklefish on August 5 for Linux, macOS and PC users. Considering that it is a construction and development management video game, it is very important that you know how to build and destroy, so read on to find out how to do it.

How to build and destroy in Starmancer?

The first thing we will tell you about how to build and destroy in Starmancer, is that we have divided this guide into two main parts, the first one is about building and the second one deals with the destruction part, in both we cover in detail each process including the use of the menu.

How to build and destroy in Starmancer? - Construction

The first thing you have to do is press the Build button, located at the bottom right corner of the game screen. This will allow you to access a menu at the bottom of the screen, where you can select what you want to build.

At the beginning of the game you will find that after building a couple of objects, many of these options are grayed out and disabled, which will prevent you from being able to select them. In order to select them, you will need to have enough Zipher to build them. This is the only resource requirement for building.
When you select what you want to build, the characters will prioritize when to build it, according to what you have set in the Construction task of the character menu.

When it comes to obtaining Zipher, you can build a trading post and sell resources, your first post will be free, so after that, you will have to save up to build another one. Another thing you can do is to build a cryptominer, for which you will have to have at least 10,000 Zipher, as well as a constant source of energy.

After choosing something to build, you will see a hologram of the selected object that will follow the mouse and let you choose where to place it. Some of them will have green silhouettes at the ends and correspond to the points on the object that allow the characters to access them, this is very important to keep in mind to be able to use them later.

How to build and destroy in Starmancer? - Destroying

To destroy something you will have to select the option Destroy > move the mouse over the screen and select the object or objects to destroy. You must keep in mind that the controls do not select things within their mouse area, but the objects within a Build Grid area that are within the boundaries of the mouse selection.

Select individual objects to destroy by clicking to highlight and destroy them. In case the object causes noise, it could affect the happiness of the character, so we recommend you to place them where you don't have so many effects on the character. Now that you know how to build and destroy in Starmancer, we recommend you avoid destroying things that you don't really need to destroy, because you might regret it later and it will be too late, you will have destroyed the item and lost the Zipher previously invested.
