Large Shuttle

As a Tier 2 spacecraft in Astroneer, the Large Shuttle is bigger than the Shuttle, and is also powered by Hydrazine. It can be used to travel rapidly across a world, or to other planets more easily.

A Large Shuttle base has four large mounts on top and two small mounts underneath, which are also used to load Hydrazine from canisters into the ship's fuel tank.

Like Shuttles, Large Shuttles can land at Vehicle Bays (and they can't be moved after construction, except to launch them into orbit and doing so doesn't guarantee a Landing Zone nearby). It is advisable to craft your ground vehicles first and park them elsewhere to avoid spacecrafts from accidentally landing on them.

Usage
The Large Shuttle requires an enclosed seat (crafted from the Vehicle Bay) to be attached and fuel in the form of Hydrazine in order to take off. The Large Shuttle consumes 10 Hydrazine to fill its tank completely, giving you 20 'charges'. A single charge is consumed whenever you take off, land, or travel between planets. Pressing the 'take off' button while in orbit opens a view of the solar system, allowing you to orbit and land on planets within the shuttle's range. Some planets will be out of the Large Shuttle's operational radius, but will come into range as they orbit. If the Large Shuttle only has 1 charge and is in orbit, it will only allow you to land on the planet you are orbiting. If the Spaceship has no charges, it will be able to land for free.

Attachments
The Vehicle Bay additions (which are permanent) that can be built onto the Spaceship are:
 * 1-Seat (an enclosed version of a 1-seat)
 * 3-Seat (an enclosed version of a 3-seat)
 * Crane
 * Large Storage (If two are installed you will not be able to launch)

Printer parts that can be attached to a Shuttle include:
 * Medium Battery
 * Solar Panel
 * Medium Wind Turbine
 * Medium Storage
 * Winch
 * Seat

Other Uses

 * A Large Shuttle has two base extension umbilical ports (one on each side) that can be used to found a new base where it lands without the need for a Habitat.
 * Like land vehicles, Shuttles provide unlimited Oxygen to players tethered to them. If power storage and/or generation are also mounted on the shuttle, it will also provide power to tethered players.

Tips

 * If you attach a habitat you can use the two small mount points on the back of a Habitat to mount additional Modules or Resources.
 * Avoid leaving with little to no fuel, as you will find yourself marooned and as such softlocked once you land.
