ATMOSFAR: get the reactor core into the Cloud Cruiser

Apog Labs calls the hatch the Cargo Lift. Players report it opens as the Hauler approaches, and that dropping the core in only puts it in the ship's inventory. One player warns that a glow means the magnet is on, not that you're carrying the core. One player uses C for a cargo camera to line up the drop; another lowers it with keys 1 and 2 instead of dropping it.

1. Pick up the core with the Hauler's magnet and check you can see the core itself under the Wasp, then fly it to the top of the Cloud Cruiser.
2. Hover over the round roof hatch until it opens and lower the core through it. Make sure the hatch closes as you fly away.

3. Land, go to the reactor inside the ship and install the core there by hand.

EA 1.0-5 fixes the core being lost after detaching from the Hauler's magnet and despawning in the ship's hopper. EA 1.0-6 fixes it staying in your inventory after installing, plus other delivery problems. Apog Labs says a lost core is highlighted after some time on 1.0-5 and should respawn where you found it.

Players still reported trouble around 1.0-6: a core that respawned each time it was dropped into the ship, one that fell through the map and left only green steam at its spawn, and, on November 1, one out of the magnet's reach in a corner at its pick-up site. Apog Labs asks players whose ship doesn't recognise the core to use the in-game bug reporter.

A second core gives the ship more power. These two spots are each reported by more than one player. Drones and turrets guard the first: players warn of drones in the wreck and of turrets if the ship drifts too close to the PACE base.
