To build a Bus Station you’ll need to unlock the recipe first. This happens when you spot one in your world.

Keep an eye out for a blue square-shaped structure with a base that sticks out. It’ll have a blue light shining from the top. You might even hear a special sound when you’re close to one.

Once you’ve found a station and unlocked the recipe you’ll need to gather some materials. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 4 Iron Bars
  • 2 Malachite Slabs
  • 6 Frostpines
  • 3 Rift Shards

Let’s break down where to find each item:

  • Iron Bars: Head to caves in the Frostlands. You’ll need to smelt Iron Ore with 2 Brightcores in a Metal Smelter to make these.
  • Malachite Slabs: Look for these on snowy mountain tops in the Frostlands.
  • Frostpines: These are trees found in the Icy Biome. Chop them down to get the wood you need.
  • Rift Shards: This is the trickiest part. You’ll need to destroy other Bus Stations to get these. But wait! You can’t just use any old tool. You’ll need an Epic Pickaxe.

Creating an Epic Pickaxe

To make an Epic Pickaxe you’ll need the following materials:

  • 8 Obsidian Slabs
  • 5 Frostpine Rods

Craft this at an Epic Crafting Station. Once you have your Epic Pickaxe you can destroy Bus Stations to get those precious Rift Shards.

Building Your Bus Station

Once you have all the materials, open your Build Menu and scroll until you see the Bus Station Blueprint.

Follow the instructions and use the markers to place your station where you want it.
