Mission: Shipwreck Confidential (2024)

Shipwreck Confidential is a main mission.

This mission is part of Trudy's desert planting questline:

1. The Missing Leak
2. Shipwreck Confidential
3. Breakthrough New Goo
4. One Small Step for Sandrockers

Overview[]

The player must have completed The Missing Leak.

Most of the mission consists of a dive into Hazardous Shipwreck Ruins so it is recommended to have a weapon for combat and some consumables on hand. The game timer will stop while the player is inside the ruins so they can explore freely.

There is no time limit to complete the mission.

Conduct[]

The mission starts immediately after The Missing Leak. The player is prompted to wait until the next day. However, the player does not have to proceed with the mission the next day: Trudy, Mi-an, and Zeke will always wait for the player and not start their ruin dive until the player arrives.

Wait Until Tomorrow[]

The next morning the mission objective changes and the player is prompted to go to the Gecko Station Ruins.

Meet Near Gecko Station[]

Trudy, Zeke, and Mi-an are waiting near the train tracks near the Gecko Station. They greet the player.

• Ready.
• Actually, I still need to get something.

If the player does not have an Iron Pickhammer in their inventory, Trudy will send them back to bring it.

If the player agrees to help, the four of them proceed to a large submarine ruins.

Trudy points to the entrance to the ruins that is too high to reach now.

Meanwhile, Zeke grabs Trudy and throws her up to the entrance.

Zeke turns to Mi-an and the player.

Zeke throws both Mi-an and the player. He is too winded up from all the throwing to continue.

Trudy and the builders proceed to the ruins' entrance.

Trudy gives the player a Protective Suit and they are prompted to put it on.

Put on Protective Suit[]

The player cannot continue until they put on the Protective Suit. Both Trudy and Mi-an put theirs on. They approach the door.

The player breaks the door with their Iron Pickhammer and can now enter the Shipwreck Ruins.

Explore Ruins[]

The ruins are full of hostile monsters: level 24-27 Hercules 2000, Disgruntled Clean-o-bots, Starbys, Sandponies, and Maintain-o-bots. Mi-an and Trudy will follow the player and actively help them fight. The time is paused while the player is inside the ruins, and the player's actions do not consume stamina as they normally do.

The player can explore the Shipwreck ruins to pick up the Geegler Training Document and some Steel Bars and Diamonds in junk piles. The chests can contain Rosestones or Microchips; two of the chest contain Masterpiece: Dog with Bottle and Masterpiece: Altair One Space Station Memorial. A Vintage assault rifle and some Rifle bullets can be found near the firing range. The rocky patches can be mined for Magnesium Ore, Glauber's Salt, and Sulfur. The wooden boxes can be broken with any tool or weapon to get Hemostat, Strong Medicine, or Rifle bullets.

Collect Ladders[]

To proceed to the next level, the player needs to pick up three interactable Iron Ladders scattered across the ruins. As the player approaches a desk while looking for ladders, Mi-an points out a logbook:

The player can pick up the Captain's Log and a Security Guard Access Key on the desk after the conversation.

After the player has collected all three ladders, they can use them to build the ladder to the next level.

Continue Exploring[]

In the next area, the player needs to get the Scientific Researcher Access Key in a room with bunk beds; they can also take a Letter to Lover and Geegle Corp Leaflet nearby.

After the player uses the Scientific Researcher Access Key and proceeds through the room and the next corridor, Trudy and Mi-an notice something below:

Jump Through Hole[]

Eventually the player reaches a hole in the ground. This jump means a point of no return, so it is recommended to only jump after finishing exploring the actual level.

As Trudy, Mi-an, and the player enter the algae chamber they find the large robot they saw before behind a window. Mi-an notices a Starby:

The robot squishes the Starby and turns to the player.

Defeat the Caretaker[]

A boss battle with The Caretaker starts.

The Caretaker drops the crafting recipe for Vintage assault rifle and Rifle bullets. After the battle Trudy asks if everyone is alright:

Salvage Machine Parts[]

Next the player is directed to salvage the damaged hydroponic machines. Each machine drops 3 Iron Scrap and a Tempered Glass. Once the player salvages both machines, Trudy tells them and Mi-an she has found the exit.

The player is transported back outside on the ground. Zeke is waiting for them there.

This ends the mission.

Post-conduct[]

The next morning the player will receive a letter from Zeke inviting them to discuss his findings.
