As well as explore the universe and combat pirate factions that are scattered throughout a galaxy. In sandbox mode, the player can build ships, stations, and other structures through collecting resources. Each factory is useful for creating blocks on each of their tiers there are three tiers in total. There are three tiers of factories, Basic Factory, Standard Factory and finally the Advanced Factory. More advanced blocks/materials require multiple items to craft and a player can work towards creating factory and mining systems that can support and create more advanced blocks. Once a player has created a simple ship, they can venture out into the universe collecting resources from asteroids, planets as well as through salvaging defeated/abandoned ships and stations. Basic weapon systems include 'Salvage Modules', which are used to mine blocks from a spaceship and "Cannon Barrels' which are blocks that shoot a simple laser projectile, essential for combat. These blocks are required to power thruster modules, weapon systems, factories and other technology. "Power Reactor Modules' which are used to generate power for any system built in StarMade, including spaceships. Basic ship blocks include 'Thruster Modules' which are a propulsion block spaceships require these blocks to be able to move (however, ship cores do have some inbuilt thrust by default). 'Build Mode' provides players with useful building tools such as 'undo,' block placement size, symmetry building planes, block orientation and more. From here, the player can hop into the block and switch to 'Build mode' (default hotkey: SPACE) where they can build the ship from inside the core block. When spawned in a singleplayer world, the player is given a 'Ship Core' block, which can be placed down (default hotkey: X). The player can build a number of objects, such as space stations and spaceships. Like in many other block based games, the game revolves around collecting these blocks and other resources for either crafting or building purposes. These materials can be used to build spaceships, space stations and other structures in the universe. A player must collect resources such as ores and crystals to craft into other useful material and technology. The universe consists of planets, asteroids, space stations and NPC spaceships. The player (an astronaut) is spawned next to a trading guild shop, with minimal resources to produce a small space-faring craft. Universes are procedurally generated in StarMade, the world is effectively infinite, approximately 9 Quadrillion Galaxies exist in the game - taking a player 10,000 years to reach the end of the universe. StarMade has a well-established community, mainly located on the official forums and steam.
