Upgrading Units and Stations Since all assets are physicalized in the Underverse, it is important to upgrade your units for things such as extra storage capacity. For instance, a level 1 Harvester can only mine 1 mineral at a time.

Upgrading costs money, and each upgrade increases things such as Hull strength, Cargo capacity and Fuel capacity.

To upgrade your unit or station, select the unit, click Upgrade from the menu, check the cost, and click confirm. The level of your unit is visually represented by the number of chevrons it has as well as its new stats in the menu.

Mining an Asteroid Once an asteroid has been prospected, you can mine its minerals. The asteroids mineral balance is shown on the top left of its menu. Only Harvesters can mine asteroids, and they can only mine if they have the space. For instance, if you have a level 4 Harvester, with 2 minerals already on board, you will only be able to mine 2 minerals from the asteroid until you use those minerals or transport them elsewhere.

To mine an asteroids, ensure your Harvester is within a 5M radius of the asteroid, select the asteroid, hit mine from the submenu, and select your Harvester. Select how many minerals you would like to mine, and hit Mine.
