Because of how the fueling station spot gets placed, we had to make the actual size of the launchpad and the moon rocket different than the texture which makes this process a bit awkward. To select the rocket, you need to click the middle of the space ship. To select the launchpad you will need to click one tile to the left of the middle. This is where you fuel up the rocket.



We recommend using these mods:
- Save our Ship 2 to add the space environment on our planets. You can land the SoS2 ship on the moon. (Put RimNauts right under SoS2 in the mod order)
- My Little Planet will help with performance on the world map.

Known issues:
- Any mod that adds a custom biome might have our moon rocks spawn in them. You can check this in the terrain tab on the world map and then avoid those tiles.
- SRTS shuttles might not reach the moon (depends on the location of the moon on the world map)

There are no hard incompatibilities as far as we know.
