Meteor Core

Meteor Core

The glowing block at the centre of a crater — the meteor's "box" of loot.

Overview

Every fallen meteor seats a Meteor Core at the bottom of its crater (see Meteor Events). It holds the meteor's RNG loot, rolled once when the meteor lands and then fixed, so the contents are identical for everyone who reaches it.

Obtaining

Not craftable. A Meteor Core is placed by a meteor impact. Break it to claim the loot (break-to-loot): the stored stacks spill out where it stood — a handful of Alien Fragments plus weighted bonus rolls of raw ores and the rarer Alien Tech Scrap / Alien Core.

Use

• Smash it open for the meteor's contents — the jump-start of alien materials and off-world ores.
• The alien items feed a future scanner / upgrade system (see Roadmap).
