About this build

Last Light is Cinder & Salt's exploration entry — a rare break from their combat catalog. Built around a single bright forward beacon and a soft amber interior. Where the rest of their work is silhouette-first, this one is light-first.

It's a long-range build but it's not built to be alone in. The interior is warmer than any combat build they've published. The intent, per their notes, is that this ship is what you take out when you're done fighting.

Lore

The name is Cinder & Salt's least subtle naming choice. Last Light — the ship you take when the rest of the catalog stops appealing.

It's been their most-delivered exploration build for two months running.

How to use

Click Order This Corvette and the Ferryman dispatches immediately. A short in-flight checklist appears — friend-code the bot, set multiplayer to "Anyone," be at one of the three handshake spots (a Space Station, the Anomaly, or your Freighter), and park your starter corvette nearby. Hit Ready when you're in position. The bot joins your session within seconds and builds the corvette live in front of you. Total time is typically about a minute.

If the Ferryman is busy with another delivery or offline for a moment, you'll see a quick retry timer instead — no queue, no waiting list. Click Retry when prompted.

Reminder: save your game once delivery completes. Until you save, the corvette exists only in your session and will not persist.
