			Almost any item in the game can be minted into an [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-fungible_token NFT] and put into your TON wallet to be sold or handed over. And any NFT from GLOBULA blockchain can be transferred back into the game.

			Practically any component, resource, weapon, blueprint, tool or battery can be NFT'd or turned back into playable objects, apart from the first items given at the registration as a basic starter kit.

			In order to be able to create and transfer NFTs you must have a [[Registration in the Globula app#How to create a TON wallet?\|TON wallet]] bound and connected to your account.

			Open the required inventory tab and long tap an object you want to NFT.

			Tap [[Mint]] to open your TON wallet and confirm the minting (costs 0.02 TON).
			If you are using the login-password method for the app, you would also need to connect a TON wallet to perform any of the minting operations. Make sure you connect the same TON wallet that has been bound to your account.

			The transaction may take up to 5 minutes. Once it's finished, you will see your NFT'd item back in its designated inventory tab but with a special chain icon on the right. The NFT itself will be placed into your TON wallet collection.

			NFTs can't be used directly in the game. These objects are for trading and handing over only, but can be turned back into playable items if required.

			Blueprints are obtained with the help of a special tool (requires crafting). At the start of the game a 100% success rate Basic [[Blueprint Basic SO-RI\|SO-RI blueprint]] is already placed in your inventory.

			Once it’s been crafted in the Chronofuser it becomes available as one of the [[Tools\|tools]].

			The SO-RI is placed into the [[Upper Slot\|upper slot]], it also requires a charged battery in the [[Lower Slot\|lower slot]].

			The radius of the SO-RI is a lot shorter than that of any weapon. Tap the globula once it’s in the scanning light cone, then tap the SO-RI to perform the scanning.

			There are three possible outcomes of the scanning:
			– it may produce one blueprint layer (the sys log would give the name of the exact blueprint);
			– it may fail and generate no layers of blueprints;
			– it might become unavailable if the number of scanning attempts exceeds a certain number.

			The Basic SO-RI has a very low scan success chance. Besides, each globula can be scanned no more than three times. After the third attempt, the tool would signal that scanning is not available any more for that globula, and another target should be chosen for scanning.

			Each successful scanning produces just one layer of a blueprint. The number of layers already collected is shown at the top right corner of a blueprint and corresponds to the success rate for crafting. Each successful scan adds one layer to a blueprint up to 100. The 101st successful scan of a blueprint will add another copy to the inventory, thus creating a 100% blueprint and a 1% blueprint.

			Empty batteries can be charged directly via a harvester (one by one) or via the Remote storage menu (several at once), provided the RS contains enough TEUs harvested previously.

			The screenshots below show the INV menu – Remote Storage (swipe left or right to see INV menu titles). First, the empty or partially discharged battery must be removed into the inventory (long tap the lower slot). Then tap any empty slot of the RS to open the battery window and tap the battery to place it into the chosen slot.

			TEUs are required to charge weapons for hunting globulas (cryptic inhabitants of Globula).
			There are several [[Weapons\|weapons]] already available at the start.


	<gallery widths="250px" heights="250px" perrow="3">		<gallery widths="250px" heights="250px" perrow="3">
	File:First Steps 6.jpg\|~~Оружие можно использовать сразу при старте игры. Тапом по пустому верхнему слоту открывается меню~~ Tools/Weapons.		File:First Steps 6.jpg\|Tap the empty upper slot to open the pop-up tab Tools/Weapons.

	</gallery>		</gallery>

			Any weapon requires a battery equipped in the lower slot (either tap the slot if it's empty or use the INV menu – Batteries). With both items equipped the [[Capacitor\|CAPACITOR]] bar will appear on the right. The battery gradually charges the weapon as shown by the progress bar of the capacitor. Once it reaches 100% the weapon can be discharged at a targeted globula.

			Globulas are different light objects on the map. They must be within the currently equipped weapon range (shown by the radar lines) to be hunted. Move the weapon’s light cone by swiping left or right and tap the globula within it. Tap the weapon to discharge it at the globula. The globula will stay targeted unless you move completely out of range or choose another object by tapping.

	</gallery>		</gallery>

			The capacitor refills automatically while the battery holds enough TEUs. Next weapon discharge is possible only at 100% capacitor charge. It might require equipping another charged battery if the previous one runs out of TEUs before the capacitor reaches its full charge.

			The capacitor is a part of a weapon and holds the unused charge if removed into the inventory for later use.

			Damage and hitpoints of globulas are measured in TEUs. Globulas may drop different components for equipment crafting.

			'''Globulas are dangerous and will shoot back!''' When hit your EXISTENSOR will lose its charge proportional to the damage received. Once it's fully depleted, the app will restart automatically with some TEUs added to the EXISTENSOR.

	</gallery>		</gallery>

			There are two ways to recharge the EXISTENSOR.

			1. Place the Harvester into the upper slot, remove any batteries from the lower slot, and walk a bit, so that TEUs gathered charge the EXISTENSOR directly.

			2. Use the [[Resteupythor R1\|Resteupythor]]. This device allows to recharge the EXISTENSOR from a battery without having to move away from the attack point. Place the Resteupythor into the upper slot and a charged battery into the lower one. The battery will recharge the EXISTENSOR.

			At the [[Starter Kit\|start of the game]] a 100% success rate [[Blueprint Resteupythor R1\|Resteupythor blueprint]] is already placed in your inventory. You need to craft it from the components gathered from Globulas.
