* Right click while holding onto a thing with grapple to reel it in (or you).
* Objects below 250kg are easily movable without imparting inertia onto you.
* Combine two facts above to easily tear stuff out of cockpits for example –
computer panels and such are worth a bunch of money. Hold onto a wall, grab
onto a computer until it detaches, then tap right click to make it zoop towards
you.
* Release left click to let the object float, then grab onto it when it’s got a
clear line into the barge.
* Generally speaking, objects are valued in Barge > Processor > Furnace order.
Barge’s mostly objects like machines, Processor is physical objects like panels,
and furnace is for scrap and other trash.
* You can hold onto things with Z and X (left and right arm respectively), this
is super useful for clambering around ships and such without using your
thrusters, and to throw things away from the main ship with the charged push
once you unlock it.
* Definitely grab onto something if you’re using charged push of more than
level 1.
* With the sound resynth upgrade, holding onto things lets you listen on them.
Fuel lines make a wooshing sound if full. Lines also have glowing lights on
them if they’re filled.
* Grapple “pushing” the salvaging rig or Jax can be used to throw yourself
around way faster than thrusters will let you fly. Combine this with the
grapple reeling.
* Braking is faster than accelerating.
* Press V to disengage all current tethers.
* Stinger (normal laser) sucks except for precision work – it completely
destroys whatever you point the beam at. Really useful for cutting the
useless aluminum panels lining around the Mack’ cockpit door.
* Tethers are your friends, use them a lot and just replenish them from the
supply station, they’re cheap. A single nanopanel is worth about 100
tethers.
* By the way, you can toggle scanner modes by scrolling up and down.
Useful when you don’t want to cut that fuel line.
* Suit Integrity upgrades reduce impact damage and the threshold to take it.
* Pizza cutters are a scam, just use kitchen scissors to cut your pizza.
How to Safely Dismantle the Quasar Thrusters of the Atlas Class Ships:

This quick guide explains how to access the emergency cut off switch without
ever setting anything on fire.

Getting to the emergency shut off valve without setting anything on fire
This guide is for those who are interested in doing it this way, and who are
qualified for working with coolant hazards. If you’re not interested, no need
to say it. Thank you.
* Remove the nozzle as you always do and throw it into the barge.
* Grab one of the coolant canisters located next to the nozzle.
* Without letting go of the canister, smash it against the hull of the thruster.
* The canister is now leaking coolant. Place the canister next to the 4 fuel lines
and freeze them (don’t worry, this will not damage anything).
* Make sure all four fuel lines are frozen next to their cutting points, then
throw the coolant canister into the incinerator.
* Melt the four fuel lines’ cutting points with the stinger
(unless one isn’t frozen anymore, in which case return to step 2).
* All four fuel lines are now safely cut, you can access the emergency cut off
valve without the risk of getting burned.
* Profit.
