Getting Started in Space Engineers

This is the start of a tutorial series to guide new and old players alike through Space Engineers survival from the very beginning and through to the point where ridiculous builds seem plausible.

This video covers everything I do during my first day in survival. From how to get your first assembler and refinery built, how to power them to what useful items are available on your drop pod.

If you have any tutorial topics you'd like me to cover in the coming videos please let me know in the comments. If you've got burning questions about how to do something, ask here and I'll do my best to answer.
