What is Pooz Space Race? A Space Age game built around surviving on space platforms, gathering resources from asteroids, and racing to the Shattered Planet.

What do I need to play? Factorio 2.1.7 or newer, with Space Age, Quality, and Elevated Rails enabled.

Can I play solo? Yes. A team can contain one player or several friends.

How do I create or join a team? Choose when you first join, or open the team window with /platformer-team. Use /platformer-team list to see existing teams.

What do teammates share? Players on the same team share research and platform ownership. Different teams progress independently. The team window does not currently offer self-service switching after joining.

Where do I start? Your team receives a home platform above Nauvis, stocked with basic machines, solar panels, an asteroid collector, a crusher, and foundation.

Why can’t I add another platform? Ordinary platform creation is locked. Each team receives one home platform.

Can I land on planets? No. Planets remain as orbital travel points, while production takes place on your platform.

How do I obtain planetary resources? Gather asteroids and use orbital recipes. Radioactive, organic, and salvage asteroids provide additional routes to uranium, Gleba materials, scrap, and components.

Are Corrundum or the companion mods required? No. Corrundum adds optional orbital progression; Space Platform Chests (2.1 Fork) adds hub logistics; Pooz Platformer Storage adds larger storage and longer pipes.

When does a race start and finish? It starts when a platform leaves the Solar System Edge directly for the Shattered Planet and finishes on arrival.

What if I stop before the finish? That run ends without a leaderboard result. Return to the Solar System Edge to try again.

Where can I see the leaderboard? Click Race or use /platformer-race. It shows live runs and completed times, plus asteroid kills, kills per second, average speed, and peak speed.
