Stranded: Alien Dawn - Resources
Plants
When starting a new game your first priority should be to find and observe these plants:
- Bright-leaved flower = Clothblossom
- Tall leafy plant = Graincob or
- Tall grass = Grain grass
Next observe any plants that produces food:
- Berry plant = Beefberries
- Orange mushrooms = Glittercap
- Peculiar bush = Fruit bush
- Squash-like plant = Buttermelon
- Tube plant = Heptagonia
Third priority is to observe these plants:
- Densely-leafed plant = Chew root
- Pointy red plant = Siliconleaf
- Twisted plant = Skinbark
- Wide-leafed plant = Smokeleaf
Finally observe trees, bushes and grass:
- Big broadleaf tree (30 wood)
- Broadleaf bush (sticks)
- Evergreen tree (20 wood)
- Giant grass (hay)
- Small broadleaf tree (20 wood)
Notice: Most plants should be planted in Loam soil in order to gain 100% harvest. Heptagonia is an exception as it prefers Gravel soil, which can be found near rocks or mountains.
Beefberries Berry plant | Produces Beefberries (food). | |
Clothblossom Bright-leaved flower | Produces cloth used for crafting clothes at a Tailor bench. | |
Glitter cap Orange mushrooms | Produces Glitter cap (food). | |
Graincob Tall leafy plant | Produces grain which can be used for food but is also important for crafting Antibiotics in a Fermentation barrel and Vegetable oil in an Oil press (which can then be turned into Liquid fuel at the Workbench). | |
Grain grass Tall grass | Produces Grain like Graincob. It is green in the early spring but then changes color to orange/yellow as it becomes ready for harvest so either look for tall green or yellow/orange grass to observe. | |
Chew root Densely-leafed plant | Produces Chew roots (food). | |
Buttermelon Squash-like plant | Produces Buttermelon (food). | |
Fruit bush Peculiar bush | Produces Bushfruits (food + wine). | |
Siliconleaf Pointy red plant | Produces Silicon used for crafting Electronics and CPU cores at a Soldering bench. Low priority when starting a new camp but become important later. | |
Skinbark Twisted plant | Produces Veggie leather that can be crafted into clothes at a Tailor bench. | |
Smokeleaf Wide-leafed plant | Produces Raw smokeleaf which can be used for Smokeleaf tea or it can be dried at a drying rack into Dried smokeleaf and then used for creating Smokeleaf pipe at a workbench, which improves Happiness. | |
Heptagonia Tube plant | Produces Sweet Syrup (food). Plant in Gravel soil which is located near rocks or mountains. | |
Blade grass | Can be cut into Hay. Blade grass is green in early spring but get yellow/orange later. | |
Giant grass | Can be cut into Hay. | |
Bushes | Can be cut into Sticks. Can be either Big or Small. | |
Evergreen trees | Can be cut into Wood. Can be either Big or Small. | |
Broadleaf trees | Can be cut into 30 Wood. Can be either Big (30 wood) or Small (20 wood). |
Animals
Notice: After you kill an animal you also have to butcher it to retrieve the raw meat. Also remember to collect the hides from Ulfen and dry them at a drying rack in order to create leather.
Bonecrusher | Raw poultry meat + Hide Peaceful carnivore. | |
Bonepicker Red-feathered bird | Raw poultry meat | |
Drakka Flat-head Animal | Raw red meat. Peaceful herbivore. | |
Explosive Skarabei | Raw insect meat | |
Glutch Bloated insect | Raw insect meat. Peaceful omnivore. | |
Gujo Flightless Bird | Raw poultry meat | |
Hummingfly Flying insect | Raw insect meat. Peaceful carnivore. | |
Juno Horned insect | Raw insect meat. Aggressive carnivore. | |
Overgrown Skarabei | Raw insect meat | |
Pancoth Small flying lizard | Raw poultry meat. | |
Scissorhands | Raw insect meat. Peaceful Omnivore The Small starving mantis is a Starving hatchling. | |
Shrieker Spike-tailed insect | Raw insect meat. At their nest you can encounter both Shrieker Hatcling and Nesting Shriker. | |
Skarabei Overgrown insect | Raw insect meat | |
Ulfen Big horned animal | Raw red meat + Hide. Peaceful herbivore. |
Minerals
You can mine Stone, Ore, Silicon and Carbon Nanotubes from these resources:
Nest Formation | Carbon Nanotubes. Be careful – the nest will be protected by aggressive animals! | |
Ore Deposit Interesting rock | Ore – can be smelted into Metal alloys ; however you can ignore this if you have planty of Scrap metal. | |
Silicon Deposit Shiny Rock | Silicon – however it is easier to farm Silicon from Siliconleaf. | |
Small rock chunk | Stone |
