(Confirmed through personal experience - crashing shuttles do not always land at beacons. While it's possible they might have a higher chance of doing so than landing elsewhere, I highly doubt this is the case.)

Found at Empire faction bases (though it will rapidly fly away it is possible to kill it), used in quests and called by the Call Shuttle permit. A shuttle called by permit will transport colonists, items, and animals on a one-way trip to anywhere you like within 70 world tiles. The shuttle can hold a total of 1000kg when loaded on a colony map, but as of 1.2.2900 it ignored this weight limit when called for a caravan on the world map.

When killed it drops Uranium 50 uranium + Plasteel 50 plasteel + Component 4 components + Steel slag chunk 4 Steel slag chunks.

If there is a functional landing pad, set out with 4 Ship landing beacons placed in at least a 9x9 area, shuttles will attempt to land on that pad if possible. This does not apply to crashed shuttles.

Version history

  • 1.1.2563 - Now avoids landing on crops.
  • ? - Plasteel yield incrased from 35 to 50. Possibly also in 1.3.3066
  • 1.3.3066 - Shuttles leave 50 uranium instead of 100 steel when killed. Refactored shuttles into generic Transport ships. These ships follow a series of jobs which can be controlled by quest logic, UI, and Lords. Transport ships are tracked while flying, loading, unloading, etc.
