The Comprehensive Star Sonata Guide

Welcome to Star Sonata! You're one of the thousand people who have began this game and begun to enjoy it. However, like all of us from the new player in their Zebucart or the endgame Lion Berserker cruising around perilous space, you probably need help. I'm undertaking the task of writing the complete guide to Star Sonata, and hope you'll find what you need in here. Of course, since new content is added every day, this will most likely be out of date soon, so if you see and blatant errors please feel free to fix them.

Since this guide is so large, I suggest either utilizing the links below or the Control+F function that will allow you to search for specific keywords in this page. I hope you find what you're looking for, or if you don't, please feel free to throw a PM my way if I'm on.

The Beginning

The Nexus

So you're a new player. You just spawned in The Nexus and you find yourself confused with all the Ships flying around. Are you in danger? No, you're perfectly safe unless you attack them, which you will in a few moments. To move your ship around, use the A key to turn left, W key to accelerate, D key to turn right, and S key to slow down. If The Nexus hasn't been seriously modified since this guide was written, there should be a base to the upper right of where you started. I suggest docking and beginning the Mission there. Read the mission dialogue and then begin the mission. To undock you can click the "Undock" button in the upper right corner of the window that appeared when you docked. First, I suggest looking around the tabs in the top of the docking window and seeing what they do. The General tab includes Missions, a base introduction/ description, and the current status of the Emperor position. The Trading tab will show a subwindow beneath it with many different types of things for sale, but the station where you are only sells a few things. To understand what these things do, please keep reading or skip to the Ships and Fits section. The bulletin board contains player messages and top teams+ players, but this will most likely confuse you as for now, it will be out of context. The ships tab includes your docked ships and their names. Finally, the Neuro Training window will contain different skills you can train, but for now you won't have any Skillpoints as you have not gained a Level.
