Widgets are Small modules that can be carried in the backpack and generally have some manner of active behavior when plugged into a widget-compatible slot. Some widgets can only function if they are placed in one of the backpack's Widget Slots, like the shoulders or on the Terrain Tool.

Function With the Widget slot

  • Small Solar Panels: Solar Panels generate power in direct sunlight at 0.5A.
  • Wind Vane: Wind Vanes generate power depending on location and wind, at 0.5A.
  • Worklight: Generates light (no longer consumes energy).

Function on any slot

  • Small Battery: Batteries store 2 Columns, or 8 Bars of power.
  • Tank: Stores Oxygen automatically, effectively expanding the oxygen reserve.
  • Power Cells: Generates 12 Bars of power before disappearing completely
  • Oxygen Filters: Provides extra oxygen for a limited amount of time.
  • Small Generator: The Generator consumes Organic material to produce a constant 1.0A of power. Can be activated or deactivated as necessary by hovering over and holding E.
