Overview
Some troubles finding the new resources?No problem, this small guide is for the new resources places.(Still in development).And some other basic guide for where to craft them or collect them.Some areas have many aliens around, CAUTION!
Reading coords.
Lat. will be, North (N) and South (S), and Long. will be East(E) and West (W).
Then for Lat. N will be more positive +, S more negative – , so a lat -5.2 for example will be more to the S.
Now Lat, W will be more negative -, and E more positive +, so a Lat. 3.1 will be more to the E.
Example lat. -3.2 long. 5, and if you are near center of map will be about to the SE of the map.
Any way you have always your map with lat and long in your HUD.
Surface ore Proteus 2
By deafult the resources will not respawn, if you want to respawn, press the left small icon (gear), in your saved single player game, and click customize, then encrease the respawn rate as you like. Now return to your game and voilà.
Mines Proteus 2
Lat. Long.
3.9 -4 Mine 2, Lead, silver, diamonds, mercury & cobalt. + chance to find (in boxes)
the next tire mining tool, also titanium and diamond ore. (is very large, take enought
supplies for the trip).
-4.3 -9.7 Mine 1, lead, silver, mercury, cobalt & diamonds, 1 loot box.
Geysers & Pools
GEYSERS
POOLS
For collect them
Now that you know where they are, you need to collect it.
For gas collection in a geyser you will need to use a barrel, put it in your quick bar and press de indicated button, try get many barrels for make only 1 trip. You can storage 1 type of gas in the big gas tank (some expensive to make).
For collecting from pools you need the glass container, put it in your quick bar, select it and press the marked button. And is done.
You will need hydrogen and methane for advanced products in the chem station.
Fibre, leather, fuel, rubber, alien blood, adhesive, plastic
Alien fibre
The alien fibre can get easily by harvesting the bushes, like Cactoid, Cinnafein and Large leaf plant, also some special trees can give it.
Leather
For get leather you need to craft at least the stone sword (Shard blade) in F2 menu. Different types of weapons harvest different stuff. You will need it for make better weapons at the starter table (craftable in F2 menu also, the work bench).
Fuel
You can use branches, alien parts, tree barks and uranium for fuel.
Basic rubber craft
By looting and finding scrab rubber, then crafted in furnace.
Advanced rubber craft
In the Chem Station, you need 1 carbon and 20 hydrogen for make 1.
Alien blood
You will need to craft an Botany kit, in your table, maxed upgrade.
then you need an empty water bottle in your inventory.
Now kill a creature an use the Botany kit, will storage the blood in the container.
Adhesive
You can get it by harvest Funnel leaf tree using the botany kit, some plants here lat. -1.0 long. -9.4 and lat. 4.7 long. -7.3.
You can craft more adhesive in the chem station.
Plastic
By collecting scrap plastic from loot and crafting in furnace.
Other way is by crafting in the chem station by 1 sulfur, 1 lead and 20 methane, each one.
Tools (Shears & Botany kit)
Llist of resources you can find in some trees and creatures by each tool.
Botany kit (surgical type)
* need an empty glass container in your inventory for recollection.
Shears (Extracting type)
+ With F5 you can see what have you unlocked and which resources collected. Other types of weapons can give other resource, check wepon descripcion to see what type of weapon is (blunt, slashing, sharp, surgical, extracting)
Trees
Are many trees in the map, but if you having diffcult here are some coords. (S-SW are good places for find trees).
Will be only listed as the RED (Redfern Tree), and BLUE (Fern Tree) Trees, that gives you the “red” and “blue” berries.

Old buildings-Loot
Some places you can find the scanner, pistol, ammo, broken barrel, broken circuits, broken wires, water, scrap rubber, food, soil, dirt, sand, propellant tank and starter stuff (loot is random).
The loot inside the small boxes in the old buildings respawn after you relog in your game play, so is better to leave the boxes there and not scrap them.

Habitat, Fabricator, Kitchen, Chemistry table
HABITAT
After you unlock your habitat(by building, gas tank, liquid tanq and smal solar panel; made in forge) you will want to build inside, fro make each wall you will need different resources, so depend on, you.
I build it an entrance (airlock), and finish the wall of the entrance (you will need 1 plastic, 2 zamark, 1 duralumin, per each wall;6) then build walls and roof only with cloths (alien fiber only) for the habitat, so that way will be super fast to finish it (you can lvl up later). Now will mark your habitat as pressurized.
After all that you can make your fabricator inside.
FABRICATOR
For the fabricator you will need:
2 Ferrochrome
2 Talonite
2 Wire
2 Circuit board
4 Glass
1 Electrum
1 Dymalloy
Once you place it inside, you don’t need to put other stuff before, you can start crafting advanced resources, and have 2 upgrades.
By default you can craft:
– Zirconium Circuit board
– Circuit board (advanced craft)
– Battery
– Laser cell
– Heat pistol
– Heat cell
– Charge rifle
– Charge cell
– Radar scanner
1st upgrade unlocks suit upgrades.
2nd upgrade unlocks High-Tech upgrades (Weapons).
Some “utility”, like work bench, small crate, furnace can be placed inside the habitat, haven’t checked all, by dismantel you got all the part from it (unless get bugged XD).

– Baked potato
– Streamed carrot
– Cooked orcek egg

Lvl up your mining tool
First you start with knife, that can loot only meat. So the first you need is collect stone, blue berries, alien fibre, craft your stone sword so you can collect hide.
After that you can make the basic table/working station (don’t need hide for made), in that table you can make your first mining tool (makeshift Chisel). Hardness 3.
Now make your furnace and try to upgrade it, and upgrade the table to allow repair.
For de second upgrade for your table you will need special ingots, so you will need a better tool for mine harder ore, so a better tool is need it.
For make a better mining tool (Chisel) you need a forge, but for that you need special ore, titanium, hardness 6, so you will think is an end way, and is kind XD, but no.
Now you need to loot for try getting titanium ore or next lvl tool (Chisel), hardness 6, you can found in Mine 2, coords in Mines section in this guide. Is really random the spawn in that mine (principally ore, high hardness ore also), you can find even weapons and quartz. If you have no lucky just exit your game and return to the mine for make loot respawn (single player only).
Once you find Titanium, just return and make the forge, there you can craft the next lvl tool, and the 3th tier one (Conduit bender), 8.5 hardness. You also must find in mine 2, diamond. With diamond you can upgrade the tier 2 (Chisel) in your working table to the max hardness 10.
If you find the tier 2 mining tool (Chisel) in mine 2 is better, just find diamond in same mine (by loot) and return to upgrade.
Now you can mine all the ore types in the Universe!, LOL, well at least in Proteus 2.
Good luck out there.
Exotic resources
This cover, obsidian, Zirconium and Azurnium. For this you need a spaceship. Are only 1 point of each for not stop your fun XD. (Knowing the planet you can go an search for more)
+Luthori don’t have Oxygen, so caution with that.
Notes
I’ll try to continue updating as long as i can go forward in the game XD. By fortune i found the resources scanner in early game.
Hope helps you a little in this new hard way of game play.
