Quests are an optional system introduced to create a linear progression of the modpack. The modpack is heavily focused on automation, so following the quests is highly reccommended in order to progress. The quests can be accessed in the top left corner of the screen after opening your inventory.
There are several sections within the quest system such as Welcome, Bulletin Board, The Market, Shipments, Overview, Metallurgy, and Lifesavers.
Welcome[]
The welcome section functions as a tutorial for submitting quests, there are no requirements for each task and provides a summary of the modpack.
This pack is for you. We hope you have a good time with it.
Modpack Description: The sandbox has been turned upside down - be ready to invent your best Create Contraptions yet. (Or the First, if you are that brave!)
About fifty inventions lie between you and the moon. Thausands of components will flow through the ever-growing sequence of your machines, providing the means to explore the next level of technology.
Your entire factory will be put to the test as final products flow into the Data Centre, programming the Guidance computer of your Spaceship. Every step is different, some may even differ depending on the generation seed of your World.
Tired of the grind? Fund the operation with coins provided either from various errands, or your chosen professions. Automatically ship produce from your farms or gather other players to aid you in your mission. Then you can purchase all manner of resources, artifacts, and building blocks from the market, making your life just a little bit easier.

- The Section on Metallurgy gives an overview of the ways to turn your ore into refined metal. Different paths yield differently.
