Resources & Materials

Acquiring
Many resources and materials are found throughout Hellion. You can acquire these resources in a few different ways, each providing benefits and setbacks to them.

Resources
Resources can be gathered in multiple ways.


 * They can be mined from resource nodes on certain asteroids.
 * They can be found in Raw Resource Canisters.
 * They can be taken from an existing cargo storage.
 * They can be found in Refined Resource Canisters.

Materials
Materials can be gathered in only two ways.


 * They can be found on the outside of derelicts, atop a red/orange sparking section.
 * They can be taken from storage racks.
