Making money can be a bottleneck for general gameplay. I'll explain here how to make a good amount of money, passively.

We're going to make Circuit Boards. Those sell slightly under 1m each.

The first thing you need is the crafting recipes for the plants.
You will also need the plans for the circuit board itself. It can be acquired by developing the base or in the Anomaly.

The trick here is to plant crops on a compatible planet. For circuit boards you will need:
-Cactus Flesh
-Star Bramble
-Solarium
-Frost wort

You can get a few on a couple of planets, they are labelled on the scan.

You will also need fertiliser. Digging it can be a serious pain. But there's an alternative.

This drill will pump fertiliser passively. You will get an amount which may vary according to the class of the site.

You will need this upgrade to locate the deep mineral formations.

You will want to recycle daily production into more crops for a while. When the farms are big enough, you might be making 50m a day. Make sure to sell the circuit boards in a compatible economy region.

If all goes well, you should be looking at this.
