Beyond These Stars Beginner Guides: Choose Your Next Task

Use these Beyond These Stars beginner guides to keep a settlement working in PC 1.0. Start with power when a consuming building stops; start with Kewa’s health and happiness when the biome, travel or mood becomes the problem.

Choose by what you see

Your next task	Guide and what you will learn
Get a power-consuming building working	Power and production: verify output, range and connection before relocating a whole district.
Improve Kewa’s wellbeing	Kewa health and happiness: check separate signals, improve the biome and avoid staying too long in excessive heat.
Understand an apparently valid placement	The placement checks explain what Hotfix 3 changed.
Handle a Kewa conversation with no choices	The conversation boundary distinguishes a stuck save from a care decision.

Plan production and the living landscape together; a larger district is not useful if its supply chain stops.

Before following a route

Check the installed version and use your actual building panel when a recipe or requirement differs. These pages cover the full PC release through Hotfix 3, released 18 October 2026. Exact generator radii, hidden mood thresholds and unsourced resource costs are not substituted for the values shown in your game.

There is no separate Wiki here: each guide supplies the context needed for its task and links to the next relevant action.
