Make a Hauling Rover from Scratch

Informational Guide on the Duskwork's Hauling Rover and trivia on previous usage from the Ad Astra Landings.

Hauling rovers hold nearly the same celebrity status of the original exploring rovers save for missing the beloved cuteness factor of the rover. In the Ad Astra Landings these hauling rovers were equipped with large cargo beds and a set of four massive rock grinders. The main difference between the old hauling rover designs and the current ones are the implementation of autonomous AI. These hauling rovers are utilized in the construction of larger buildings and larger-scale mining operations.

The Duskwork's Hauling Rover functions identical to the Ad Astra Development Zone hauling rovers, except kept in the traditional yellow finish that became synonymous with the first colonization of Mars.

As a self-reliant Martian, you will have a chance to learn how to produce all the necessary materials and parts to make your rovers. At the moment, you can create two types of rovers: Hauling and Exploring.

On this page, we will look at how to get from nothing to a Hauling Rover in a couple of days. We'll overview the process and then show you the details of each step in the process.

Here is a list of all the buildings and the recipes you'll need to use to create the Hauling Rover.

Filter Water

16 Water | 4 Regolith

Recipe
Output

Any Regolith Mining Task

100-200 Regolith

Recipe
Output

Capture Carbon Dioxide

1-15 Carbon Dioxide.

Down in the Tasks section, you'll want to mining some Regolith. For Regolith Mining I, you'll need:

  • 1 Task Capacity

  • 2 Stamina

  • 20 Power

Just like in the previous step, we go down to the Tasks section and we're going to do the task: Split Water I, this will split the water and give us some Hydrogen for making PVC and Oxygen. You will need:

  • 1 Task Capacity

  • 1 Stamina

  • 1 Water

  • 10 power

In order to make the extremely important, yet smelly gas of Methane for later production of PVC, you'll need to use the Produce Methane task and have the following:

  • 1 Task Capacity

  • 2 Stamina

  • 1 Carbon Dioxide

  • 4 Hydrogen

  • 10 Power

The filtering process will take the ice that you recovered off of the Mars surface or purchased from any of your fellow settlers and filter it into pure Water. You do this process by choosing the task: Filter Water. You will need:

  • 1 Task Capacity

  • 1 Stamina

  • 40 Ice

  • 10 Power

The Cryogenic Atmospheric Distiller, will pull air out of the atmosphere, freeze it and then further distill it into its individual parts. For this step we'll be pulling Carbon Dioxide out of it. Use the Capture Carbon Dioxide task, you'll need:

  • 1 Task Capacity

  • 1 Stamina

  • 40 Power

The following ores will be necessary for the production of a Rover.

  • Aluminum Ore

  • Titanium Ore

  • Steel

  • Iron Ore

  • Copper Ore

Let's make some Aluminum ore first, you want to click on "SMELT ALUMINUM" and make sure you have the following resources. Aluminum will be used for various parts of the Rover, including Machined Parts.

  • 1 Task Capacity

  • 5 Stamina

  • 1,000 Regolith

  • 40 Power

Next, let's make some Titanium ore. You want to click on "SMELT TITANIUM" and make sure you have the following resources. Titanium plates will be used to create Structrual Parts.

  • 1 Task Capacity

  • 4 Stamina

  • 2500 Regolith

  • 40 Power

Next, we want to make iron. Click on "SMELT IRON" and make sure you have the following resources. The Iron will mostly be used to make steel.

  • 1 Task Capacity

  • 500 Regolith

  • 2 Stamina

  • 40 Power

Next, we want to make some steel. Click on "SMELT STEEL" and make sure you have the following resources. Steel, like Titanium will be used to create Structural Parts.

  • 1 Task Capacity

  • 3 Stamina

  • 10 Carbon Dioxide

  • 15 Iron Ore

  • 40 Power

Finally, we want to make copper. Click on "SMELT COPPER" and make sure you have the following resources. These are going to be used in electrical components of the Rover, specifically the Electrical Parts.

  • 1 Task Capacity

  • 1500 Regolith

  • 3 Stamina

  • 40 Power

Click on the "MAKE PVC" button and make sure you have the following resources. PVC will be used in the construction of Electrical Parts.

  • 1 Task Capacity

  • 8 Rover Wheels

After finishing the "ASSEMBLE HAULING ROVER" task, you are rewarded with a sparkling new Hauling Rover.

:

And of course, you'll need a , to complete the build and send your Rover out on missions!

For our first step in the make a hauling rover process, we'll need to dig up some regolith off of the Mars surface. You'll need to head on over to your .

Now that we've set up our , we'll go locate our and open it up.

The creates a bit of water, but we'll need more later on to create the PVC plastic for our more advanced recipes. You can head over to your to produce more water.

Next, let have our produce carbon dioxide, you'll need this to smelt steel later on:

Next, we're going to use the to smelt out various ores from the Regolith, as such you'll want a decent amount of Regolith before these next steps.

Next on our list is to make some PVC. We can do this in the .

Now that we have the required metal plates and PVCs, let's use our to make the structural and electronics parts.

And finally, to ! Here we will assemble our Hauling rover.
