——————————————————————————————————-
——————————————————————————————————-
- Tech Lab : Assistant promotion
- Infirmary : Reorganization of care
- Crew Quarters : Additional Beds, Optimized quarter
- Mess Hall : Advanced logistics
- Workshop : Stanford Initiative
——————————————————————————————————-
- You must research ASAP the Assistant Promotion upgrade for the tech lab as it produce 3 science every 5 cycle ! ( A must have )
- Open ASAP your second sector, just accept the mission directly when people ask for it, then build a second docking bay and farm all you can.
- Take your time in chapter 1, you can harvest a lot of ressources, unlock tech and upgrade, and prepare your station for chapter 2
- Try to never stop to awakens humans from cryonic pods, first it will help you to improve your overall production in your station ( just upgrade or add new quarters if required ), second is about trust, keeping too much cryopods will create a lot of trouble, idk what is the first tier, but at 500+ you have -2 trust, 720 -3 trust … be carefull !
- When you want to move Tiqqun, check first by mouse overing thoose battery bar under the energy one ( the six smaller one for each sector ), it’ll show you how far you can keep it powered, you can also temporary disable your industries that’s not required to increase the range / time you can travel !
Chapter 2 ({ Falcon 74 } Falcon 74 – Business as Usual )
Performing intrusive analysis : ( Lock the location )
Setting up a temporary study center : ( Lock the location )
Etablishing infrastructure :
Chapter 2 ({ DO-G-0202 } DO-G-0202 – The Lost Sheep )
Chapter 2 DO-G-0202, in addition to determining the Sheptel’s destruction, I had the option to repair and receive the ship for free. Not sure if this option is locked behind a research option or not. ( Maybe by doing another location first ? need to be confirmed )
About the option, i think its because locked behind automatic repatriation on Science Ship.
And you should first determine the cause of destruction, then repair and reclaim the sheptel
Linear choice, just don’t leave and finish all task.
Chapter 2 ({ Fargo 39 } Fargo 39 – In the Balance ) Quest /!\
If you want to send an expedition with exoskeleton : ( Lock the location )
Recovering archived digital data from the cargo ship and return to the maxwell :
Survey the cargo ship, recover any archived data and return to the maxwell :
Recover data from the cargo ship and attempt EKP repair for the cargo recovery :
Sending a small team of specialists to the signal’s location : ( Loosing crew member with no reward )

If you have researched science ship – emergency criopods, don’t lose people, only the ship
Not sure if anyone has said this but you get a permanent -1 to stability from completing the valiant 71 objectives for discovering the fate of the protagoras
Recovering materials from the huizinga : ( Lock the location )
Attempting to recover the closest cryopods : ( Lock the location )
Attempting to recover all the cryopods : ( Lock the location, worst choice ever ! )

Chapter 2 ({ Plymouth 37 } Plymouth 37 – What Lies Beneath )
Performing intrusive analysis :
Set up a temporary study center : ( The end result is the same as above ! )
Establish infrastructure to support exploration and geological analysis : ( The end result is the same as above ! )
Chapter 2 ({ Perenti 85 } Perenti 85 – Wind Dispersal )
The game will not let you pick any options with the science ship for Perenti if you do not research deep dive.
It will allow you to leave and come back later without penalty. If you click the magnifying glass it even tells you that you can’t do anything until you get deep-dive tech so, no one should have any issues with it. 🙂
I’m not sure about this one because i’ve research the upgrade before trying to go to perenti, so it must be confirmed if the upgrade is required or not here !
Releasing micro-probes into the atmosphere :
Establishing a weather station :
Seting up advanced infrastructure for meteorological analysis and simulation :
Chapter 2 ({ Mack R } Mack R – Ice and Fire ) Quest /!\
Thawing the ice by venting the maxwell’s fuel cells :
If you choose to abandon the maxwell and declare its crew lost :
But it you choose to rescue them and burrow the proof :
Drilling through the ice and investigate the wreck using a borescope :
Setting up excavation equipment :
Chapter 2 ({ Tatra v8 } Tatra v8 – Adrift )
if you choose NAOMI PROTOCOL you will loose -1 stability permanent (but you find out some story dont know if this is relevant to the over all choices or story relevant things)
Getting close to the cargo ship :
If you choose to board the cargo ship or hailling it : ( no reward change )
And then interrogate the P.A : ( You will be able to recover the cargo just after ! )
In each case, ramming the ship will lead to :
Chapter 2 ({ Rockatansky D79 } Rockatansky D79 – Twin-Tailed Comet )
Using explosives to clear the path : ( Lead to a desaster … )
Setting up a temporary study center :
And then remotly initiate the maxwell’s self-destruct sequence : ( Bad choice again ! )
Using naomi protocol, updating the tiqqun’s crew manifest to include the new biometric data :
Establishing infrastructure to support exploration and geological analysis :
If you choose to descend to the cavity and study the sphere : ( Bad things happened, better to just leave the planet and lock the location )
Chapter 2 ({ Chevy 34 } Chevy 34 – Metallic Bracings )
It seems that to test the events on a planet behind the space thunderstorm you need to fly the station to it or to Rokatansky comet so the cargo ship will avoid the thunderstorm.. Cargo ship always ended being destroyed for me before even carrying the full load, so I’ve never finished any options outside first one.
First off, i confirmed that is better to send Tiqqun to Rokatansky to do quest and minning around Chevy ( thank to @Sleeps~Darkly~ ).
Perfoming intrusive analysis :
Setting up a temporary study center : ( End just like above )
Establishing infrastructure to support exploration and geological analysis : ( End just like above )
Chapter 2 ({ Protagoras } Meeting Protagoras ) Quest /!\
Chapter 2 ({ Deville 59 } Deville 59 – Pioneers ) Colony /!\
Establishing basic Nyokond colony infrastructure : ( Do nothing specific )
Establishing advanced Nyokond colony infrastructure : ( Maybe a bonus later ? But no reward actually )
Chapter 2 ({ Protagoras } Man is the Measure of all Things ) Quest /!\
After repairing the superstructure of the protagoras, If you meet the leders directly after :
Then research and built the “retractable telescopic pole” and continue the reparation : ( you need to put Tiqqun in orbit of Protagoras, be prepared this phase is hard ! )
After this, if you meet the elders the result is the same …
Chapter 2 ({ Deville 59 } Deville 59 – Pioneers ) Stage 2 /!\
If you take colonists home in chapter 2 you will get +10% trust.
Dont know, but if you abandoned them there you can get trust penalty
Before leaving the system you can reitreive or abandon the collonist : ( or leave them ? )
Chapter 2 ({ Protagoras } Thoughts of the Protagoras )
For Chapter 2 your missing Thoughts of the Protagoras (I’ve got a save at that point if you want me to message you the results of it along with images for the list)
you CAN do this even if you did not meet the elders.
🔒 Installing a copy of edden :

I’ve updated the map for chapter 2, again just like chapter 1, take your time to harvest as many as you can ( upgrading stockpile and uncloking the t2 will help a lot ! ) - Do not worry about the penalty in each sector of the -1 by staying too long, you can easily manage with memorials, alternative life, and later the exo-fighting drone and the hull temple ( as long as you also get the train station, that’s why you must be prepare to construct everything asap )
- As always in tech focus the Tech lab upgrade, it will help you a lot during your run.

In Tatra v8 choosing the NAOMI protocol and taking the ship back does NOT result in a permanent -1 stability. You get that -1 for finding out what happened to the Protagoras (by completing 3 out of 4 possible science missions).
You will get the -1, no matter what. I got the debuff after completing Mack8 for example. It’s part of the overall story progression and has nothing to do with Tatra v8.
Just make sure you have exoskeletons researched before doing this mission, because the crew will die if not.
In chapter 2, it is repeatedly mentioned in comments that resolving some of the events will give – 1 Happiness. This is a bit midleading as it seems you can gather a lot of unhappiness, when in truth it is all the same -1 modifier: After uncovering any 3 events, you find out DOLOS was declared Enemy of Humankind and the Protagoras hunted down by the UN. Resolving the first two events or resolving any events beyond the third does not incur the -1 penalty, only the third one does.
Good bless you, man.
Just to mention theres a typo in Rokatansky quest. Its not rock tan sky
On P-38, choosing the tank room as the first choice generates more science, no?
Going for an advanced Nyokond colony on Deville 59 actually gives you one of the best rewards ever, which is 1 science per cycle for as long as you are staying in the solar system. Getting a colony on there as soon as possible and then stay for as long as you possibly can could net you hundreds of free science.
Not sure what a basic Nyokond colony does.
Actually, it gives about 50 / 60 science and then they want to be taken back. Meh.
Establishing an advanced Nyokond colony gives about 60 science (one science per cycle). After that they want to be taken home.
Establishing an advanced Nyokond colony gives about 60 science (one science per cycle). After that they want to be taken home. The moment they conducted their tests gives you a whopping 100 science. I unfortunately cannot verify the latter, but I suddenly had 100 science to spend right after the colonists on Deville 59 were done.
