When a Paver is attached it allows the Crane to build terrain, but it needs a source of soil, such as a Medium Fluid & Soil Canister, to be able to place terrain.When mounted on the same Large Rover as a Soil Centrifuge, the Crane will instead send collected soil directly to the centrifuge's internal reservoir, only filling its internal inventory and then canisters after this has become full.Just like the Terrain Tool, any unfinished stacks will be stored inside the Drill Heads own virtual inventory.Tungsten Carbide Graphene Diamond Hydrazine Silicone Explosive Powder Steel Titanium Alloy Nanocarbon Alloy. It is a purple liquid inside of a Canister, with a purple ring on top to indicate the amount of Hydrazine left. Resources collected by the Crane will transfer to any empty storage slots, therefore it is highly recommended for a Crane to be used alongside a Storage module. Hydrazine is a composite resource in Astroneer.The Crane is operated by the cursor and always points toward the Terrain for easier mining.

In order to control the Crane you must sit in its own seat (not the vehicle one) located at the base of the Crane. The Crane has a Tier-2 attachment slot on the head for the Drill Head (though other things can be attached) and 2 Tier-1 slots on the side. When paired with a Drill Head, it can be used to mine Resources at a faster rate than the Terrain Tool and even dig through hard sediment that the Terrain Tool cannot penetrate. Its perhaps one of the most distinct Planets in Astroneer, with its thin foggy atmosphere and purple, sparsely forested and cratered Terrain.The surface of the moon is pockmarked with craters, much like Desolo, the other terrestrial moon. The Crane is a Large module that can be placed on a Vehicle and certain Platforms. Novus is a Planet in Astroneer.It is the moon of the Exotic planet Vesania.
