Scenarios

A scenario is any default or custom game world designed as a starting point for either freeform or scripted gameplay.

Default Scenarios

The game offers several default scenarios for both creative and survival mode. When started in survival mode, the player will always be equipped with basic hand tools: drill, welder and grinder. These scenarios have no predefined goals, and allow the player(s) to play the game however they wish.
