	During [[Avatar_Creation\|avatar creation]] it is possible to adjust the scheduled asteroid impact time. It can be adjusted between 6½ and 7½ days from when the [[avatar]] first spawns on their first [[world]]. It is recommended to select late time so you have time to react in the few critical hours prior to impact.

			The [[stargazer]] that can be found just outside a [[village]] will be able to give an exact date. '''There is currently no other way to get the exact time of impact.'''

	'''Note:''' An easy way to gather the resources needed by [[Energy_Weapon_Bay\|energy weapon bay]] and [[Energy_Weapon_Lens\|lens]] is to make small colonies on [[Orbit_Zone\|inferno and frigid]] planets of your '''starting''' system. This way you only have to put down an [[Airport_Terminal\|airport terminal]] to instantly get any resource from your main city. It makes it easier to colonize and build a decent mining colony.

	Projectile weapons, such as [[Ballistic_Weapon_Bay\|ballistic weapon bay]]s or [[Weapon_Launcher_Bay\|weapon launcher bay]]s, aren't reliable enough to be used by the NPC crew alone and might require some manual piloting to get extra close or in front of the asteroid. Therefore it is not recommended to use them against the asteroid without a lot of experience with ~~piloting and~~ the ~~game~~ mechanics of them.
