Probe mechanics
Hello Gatewalkers!
You have probably wondered how is it that the Guild has access to all those different worlds connected by the Ancient’s tunnel system. There are two ways to obtain coordinates, which work like an address you have to enter to open a tunnel to a new world. The first way is to get an exact address to a world and enter it manually at the Guild’s Portal. From time to time, you will also find coordinates during your expeditions. Such newly-found coordinates will let you travel to new places and accomplish missions (Quest worlds). The alternative way is to obtain coordinates using probes.
Probes are devices invented by the Guild’s lead scientist, Victor. Victor created probes by combining information gathered from numerous fragments of Ancient machines. After countless hours spent studying the workings of Ancient machines, he learned how to use their powers. As a result, Victor developed recipes that use Ancient fragments and a handful of additional resources to create probes. Probes are very easy to use. You send a probe through the Portal to scan the tunnels linking different worlds. Once your probe finds a new world, it immediately sends the world’s coordinates back to the Portal’s console.
To create a probe, you have to visit Victor Hemming's Laboratory and choose a recipe.
After its created, you start the probe by selecting it in your inventory.
Then, the probe flies into the Portal and finds the coordinates of a new world.
It is worth mentioning that probes are categorized into types and tiers. Depending on the chosen recipe, a probe will search for worlds of a specified type and tier; for example, a forest world with tier 6 resources or a Sky Rocks world with tier 5 resources. You must remember, however, that high-tier worlds mean not only better resources but also stronger enemies. The world with the best resources is not always the best choice!
We hope that you will enjoy the presented mechanics of finding new worlds. Thank you for being with us, and keep following us for new Gatewalkers updates.
