    Fastest way to do this will be to build Extractors to mine resources for you while you are playing the game.

    Make sure you build your outpost on a resource vein (use scanner to check if you are over one) then place your outpost.

    Build an extractor for the resource you are mining. Make sure you build a power source in your outpost as the extractor requires 5 power to run.

    Connect the extractor to a storage container so you don't have to come back and gather the resources every time it is full. Make sure to connect the extractor to the storage container.

    I had two extractors connected to a storage container and it filled up the storage container with about 120 lead in about an hour. If all you care about is the achievement simply take the resource out of the container when it is full and drop it on the ground. If you want to save the resource build a transfer container & a landing pad and you can transfer the resources from your container to your ship.

    Once the extractors have farmed 500 resources the achievement will unlock. Mine unlocked while I was doing other things.

    MarkoolaA minha conquista não vem de jeito nenhum, já tentei vários métodos. Alguém sabe de algum bug?

    CauseIs water vapor considered a resource? Or does it have to be a solid?

    Edit: Well my water vapor extractor is producing (go figure), water! And that is a resource I’d say, so we’ll see.

    Edit 2: Water vapor counts, fyi, achievement just popped. Took a bit longer than these guides because I was doing other stuff, but same concept.

    Purchase Resources From
    Jemison Mercantile (New Atlantis), Trade Authority (The Well), UC Distrubution Center (Commercial District), and Outland (Commercial District)On Jemison-New Atlantis

    Create A Outpost North Of New Atlantis, Still On Jemison By Science Outpost, the Science Outpost will be a landmark landing site on the planet to fast travel to, from the landing site you will be directly in position of creating an outpost with the water resource available to extract

    Build In Order

    Solar Array

    Aluminum: x4
    Copper: x3
    Beryllium: x2

    Extractor-Water

    Aluminum: x3
    Nickel: x4
    Iron: x3

    Storage-Liquid x3

    Aluminum: x18
    Nickel: x15
    Adaptive Frame: x9

    Next create cargo links from your Water Extractor to your liquid storages, then continue to play the game the way you want as it produces for you, you may have to travel back to the Outpost to empty out your liquid storage from time to time, or just build more liquid storage, if you need extra materials, travel back to the stores mentioned above after resting or waiting 48 hrs, This was by far the earliest and easiest way to knock this achievement out.

    yelowjacketsThere are two kinds of extractors, a water vapor extractor, and a water extractor, they're different what this solution requires but doesn't mention is the latter kind. I think you need to be in a location on the planet where a water resource is available. You can scan for water from orbit with LB.

    IdanSTA great guide, should also add "If you want to save the resource build a transfer container & a landing pad and you can transfer the resources from your container to your ship."

    HermesHonshappoWater extractor counts. So does time sleeping!

    I did this just a bit north New Atlantis, following the guide from Mircea Dez3

    Built 2 extractors, 2 solar panels, 4 liquid storage, and a sleeping bag on the ground.
    I build the sleeping bag since I was on the
    *** Spoiler - click to reveal ***
    , so I couldn't sleep on the ship

    Sleep 24h, wake up, empty the liquid storage and dump on the ground.
    Go back to sleep, and the achievement pops while you're sleeping.

    Once you have the resource available, it should not take more than 15 minutes
