Neptune Escape Rocket

The Neptune Escape Rocket is a vehicle that is used to leave Planet 4546B. It consists of five constructable parts: the Neptune Launch Platform, the Neptune Gantry, Neptune Boosters, Neptune Ion Boosters, and Neptune Cockpit. The Neptune Launch Platform can be built using the Mobile Vehicle Bay, while the other four components are built on the launch platform.

The Neptune Escape Rocket cannot be launched unless the Quarantine Enforcement Platform is disabled.

Blueprints
The Player can find the blueprints for the Neptune Launch Platform inside the Captain's Quarters of the Aurora. The door will be locked, but can be accessed using the entry code, which is 2679. Accessing the data entry will unlock the Neptune Launch Platform, Gantry, Boosters, Ion Boosters, and Cockpit Blueprints.

Neptune Launch Platform
The Neptune Launch Platform is a very large floating barge with ladders on each side. In the middle is a circular indentation where the rocket will sit. On one side is a terminal used to construct the individual rocket segments, and can be used to rename and recolor the rocket once it has been fully completed. The terminal possesses fabrication drones similar to the Mobile Vehicle Bay.

Neptune Gantry
The Neptune Gantry is the second component of the Neptune Rocket. It consists of a small metal pillar with a bridge (which eventually leads into the Neptune Rocket) and an elevator which can lift the player to the top of the gantry to access the cockpit.

Neptune Boosters
The 1st stage of the Neptune Rocket consists of a cylindrical shape with launching clamps connected to it. This portion consists of the thrusters, and serves no personal function other than to progress to the other stage.

Neptune Fuel Reserve
The 2nd stage adds more to the body of the rocket, including the hatch that leads inside, where the player can find a ladder leading up to the cockpit, as well as lockers surrounding the central column. Three levers can be found in this section as well, and it is required to pull them in order to launch. The engine is housed here as well.

Neptune Cockpit
The 3rd and final stage represents the main cockpit of the Neptune Rocket. Here the player can access the Time Capsule launcher, main CPU, life support systems, and the command chair which will initiate the launch to escape Planet 4546B.

Once the Neptune Escape Rocket has been completed, the player can "say farewell" to their Cuddlefish.

The Time Capsule can be placed in a slot, and can be edited to include various items, a picture, and a message to be found by other players. The Time Capsule will be jettisoned upon the Rocket's launch.

Trivia

 * The Neptune Launch Platform would originally require Ion Cube Matrix in order to craft the Neptune Fuel Reserve. This was later changed in version 1.0, with the craft using Ion Power Cells instead.

Bugs

 * As of 2018-Feb, you might encounter a bug where the Mobile Vehicle Bay fails to construct the Neptune Launch Platform and gives no error. One workaround that seems to be popular is to build a new Mobile Vehicle Bay and use that to construct the launch platform.
 * If the rocket is built and the player escaped the planet while in a radiation field, the radiation effects will not disappear even when the player leaves the planet's surface.
