No, I've used admin commands to get the 'best' mech parts. Unless I'm missing something, it seems like every planet will drain your mech energy at an insane rate, rendering you unable to use it for longer than 10 seconds.
Title. I'm playing the training mission given by the penguin, and I can't seem to get the mech to fly upwards. Is there a trick to it, or am I just …
Spawning Items In Starbound. First things first. We’re going to need to enable admin mode in order to spawn items. In a singleplayer game, you can do this simply by opening up the console by pressing the Enter key and using the command /admin 1.Enabling this mode unlocks all crafting recipes, makes you invincible, prevents energy loss and most importantly, allows us to access admin commands.
Different parts can be obtained by learning their corresponding blueprints, usually found in non-planet locations in space. They can be equipped to the mech by using the Mech Assembly Station on your space station, or in Dr. Akaggy's workshop.
Body: Affects Maximum Energy of the mech and its Defense. Also determines the resistance of the mech to planetary hazards ( Deadly Radiation, Deadly Chill, and Deadly Heat ).
Mechs will drain an additional 40 MJ of energy per second while in contact with Lava. If a mech's energy reaches 0 while it is in contact with lava, the mech will explode.
An incomplete mech build cannot operate, and will not display energy/energy usage. (If the current character has not yet completed Test Drive, 'Unauthorized User' will appear instead of 'Configuration Incomplete' until the quest is completed.)
Mech part schematics are unlocked by consuming mech blueprints, found in space encounters. The player will receive their first mech components, enough for a basic starter mech, after completing the quest Test Drive .
On planets and in sections of space encounters with gravity, the mech's movement is similar to that of the player. Left and Right inputs move the mech left and right, Jump input causes the mech to boost upward, and Down + Jump causes the mech to drop through platforms.
If the mech was brought to 0 energy by a source of damage or by Lava -accelerated passive energy drain, the mech explodes for massive fire-type damage (which is not survivable except in some niche scenarios involving general and fire-type damage reductions).
This is totally canonically the reason you never permanently die in this game.

Fortunately for space explorers, mechs provide a safe escape and an armored shell to help you in airless environments. Plus, different mech bodies give different resistances like:
When moving, the mech accelerates in the direction you choose while using jump will make it stop. Arms are activated using your mouse. Left click activates your left arm, and right click activates your right arm. Other actions: F toots your mech’s horn and the Interact command makes you exit and enter the mech.
Just make sure you have the right materials before crafting some of the basic components. Mainly, these early mech components require a lot of titanium. Future mech parts and mech blueprints will require different resources. That mech looks really stylish.
If you don’t have these bodies while navigating those types of planets, your mech’s energy will drain at a higher rate.
There are several components you can customize for your mech: body, left arm, right arm, booster, legs, and horn. Each component has varying defense stats and shows how much energy it has and its usage (except for the horn).
Mechs have their own energy reserves, which are shown as a blue bar above the vehicle. Using the mech depletes that energy reserve, but so does receiving damage and attempting to pilot a mech on a planet without a body resistant to that particular planet’s hazards; these will deplete energy at a more alarming rate.
While weapon usage does not de plete energy due to it being accounted for by a mech’s arms, you need to be careful that your energy bar doesn’t reach 0. Otherwise, you’ll be ejected from your mech where one of two things can happen. If the mech was brought to 0 energy through damage, the mech explodes.
The five known Mechs are the Human, Glitch, Hylotl, Apex and Novakid Mechs .
The mech is deployed via pressing the button near your beam up icon on the right-hand side of the screen. The mech can also be deployed from your ship (using the teleporter) directly to a planet's surface. The mech has a tiny jump and does 10 damage currently in v. Angry Koala.
Players can still take fall damage with the mech equipped. There are currently two glitches: sometimes a mech's legs will not appear to some players and the bullets will only do 1 damage. The apex mech can only be obtained through cheating as of now. A glitch mech was added in v.
