This is the third video in a tutorial series to guide new and old players alike through Space Engineers survival from the very beginning and through to the point where ridiculous builds seem plausible.

This video shows how to expand your starting base to include a full refinery, assembler and support structures for your medical bay as well as how all those pieces fit together.

If you would like to play this exact start I've published them on both the steam workshop and mod.io and will have a short guide up on how to use them soon

mod.io/g/spaceengineers/m/splitsie-getting-started-in-survival-1

If you have any tutorial topics you'd like me to cover in the coming videos please let me know in the comments. If you've got burning questions about how to do something, ask here and I'll do my best to answer.

I have made an older series that aside from the lack of food is still accurate which you can follow along with here while waiting for the latest series to catch up youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfMGCUepUcNxUlebL3Xoc6wuI7vKqPS0D
