SALVOR ADRIFT gameplay guide and player questions

Our guidance
How do I manage my frame's weapon systems during combat?
Firing weapons generates heat, and reaching the limit disables them. You must vent heat before you can dock, cruise, or jump. Prioritize venting to keep your frame operational and mobile during intense combat encounters.
What is the primary objective when encountering a system's resident machine?
To control a system, you must defeat the resident machine holding the well. Once the resident is killed, you can take the station and build your own yards, hubs, or citadels across the chart.
How do rival salvors interact with my progress on the chart?
Fourteen rival salvors occupy the chart, building and holding ground. You can choose to finish them or make peace. If you take their stations, they pay you, or you can outbid them to turn their guns.
