Escape Pod

The Escape Pod is where you start your journey. Upon beginning a new run, most Survivors fall from above in escape pods (MUL-T and Acrid spawn without a pod). Before gameplay can begin, the pod must be exited by pressing the interact button, which jettisons the door and allows the survivor to leave.

Fuel Array
Beginning in the Scorched Acres Update, the back of the pod can be interacted with to expose the Fuel Array, which can be interacted with again to take it. The Fuel Array is necessary to unlock REX.
