How to unlock the Planetesphobia achievement in Space Engineers - Definitive Guide

This is easily done through the use of the in-game admin panel, which can be opened by pressing cn_RB+cn_Y simultaneously, so long as you are the host of the game or have been promoted to admin of the game you are in. Here you will find a few settings that will make going for this achievement much easier. I would suggest the following settings enabled...

- Enable creative mode tools
- Invulnerable
- Untargetable

Then, you will play through the scenario as normal completing all tasks you are prompted with, up until you reach the planet and are then tasked with disabling the pirate facility. While doing so you must not come within approximately 50km of the planet's surface in order to remain out of its atmosphere, otherwise you will void this achievement.

What you will want to do at this point is make a backup save just in case for some reason the achievement doesn't pop. Then open the admin tools once again (cn_RB+cn_Y), and from the drop down menu at the top of the panel select "entity list". Scroll down until you see "pirate base" and hover over it so its selected, wait until the facility has fully loaded in on your screen then at the bottom of the panel click the option to "depower". This will disable the pirate facility and pop the achievement, no need to do the same with the pirate defenses.

Doing so you will also unlock the following achievements, granted you completed all tasks without dying...

Space EngineersEngineering DegreeKawiNinjaRider7The Engineering Degree achievement in Space Engineers worth 368 points(Locked) Finish all tasks of Learning to Survive scenario.


Space EngineersIt Takes But OneKawiNinjaRider7The It Takes But One achievement in Space Engineers worth 430 points(Locked) Complete all objectives without dying in Learning to Survive scenario.


And if you then proceed to complete the final task of disabling the pirate commander's ship (you can use the same method as above to disable it in the entity list) you will also unlock the following achievement...

Space EngineersPromoted EngineerKawiNinjaRider7The Promoted Engineer achievement in Space Engineers worth 399 points(Locked) Complete the final objective of Learning to Survive scenario.


That's all there is to it! Four easy achievements that can be knocked out in roughly half an hour using this method. Hope this helps :)

Awesome achievement guide.
Only change i would say is to depower it instead of remove as the game sometimes bugs and task doesn't complete

De-powering it popped the achievement for you? Tried that in the first of my two playthroughs though I believe I got too close to the planet and voided the achievement lol. If de-powering the facility popped it for you I'll definitely add it in then.

@HolloFox I have updated the solution to note that you should depower the base rather than delete. Did this again last night and achievement popped.
