Basic drone controls

Step

In short Mouse and keyboard together give you full three-dimensional control over your drone.

As soon as you enter the game your drone is ready to fly. You steer it with the mouse to look around and WASD or the arrow keys to move. Adjusting your altitude lets you reach high spots and distant areas that you simply cannot get to on the ground.

Move the mouse look in any direction to aim your drone's path.
Press WASD or the arrow keys push the drone forward, back, left, or right.
Adjust height climb or descend to explore the world in three dimensions.

Reading the open world map

Tips

In short Checking the map before you move saves a lot of wandering in a world this large.

The game includes a map that shows the layout of the entire sandbox. Use it whenever you feel turned around or want to plan a route to a specific area.

Tips worth knowing

Open the map to see the full terrain and how different areas connect.
Pick your destination on the map before you take off so you fly in the right direction from the start.
If you get lost mid-flight, pull up the map to reorient rather than guessing.

Destruction and explosions

Warn

In short Where and when you trigger an explosion changes what happens next, so pay attention to positioning.

Parts of the sandbox world can be destroyed, and certain elements let you set off explosions.

Worth watching out for

Look for destructible objects in the environment.

Explosion placement matters the same blast in two different spots can produce completely different outcomes.

Watch how the environment changes after a destruction event before moving on.

Air defences

Tips

In short Understanding where air defences operate lets you choose when to push through and when to go around.

Air defences are a core mechanic that affects how freely you can move through certain parts of the sky.

Tips worth knowing

Some areas of the sky are defended, restricting straightforward flight paths.
Routing around a defended zone is a valid tactic.
Your drone's manoeuvrability can be used to push through a defended area.
Watching a defence pattern before committing to a path is an option.
