How to find and recover the Abandoned Facility generator in RoadCraft

RoadCraft's campaign explores different parts of the world, redeveloping land ravaged by natural disasters, and restoring power to old facilities to help refuel various regions. Within the game's first hour, you'll discover an abandoned facility containing a generator, with your first task being to find and recover it. There are many moving parts to this task initially. You'll need to find this generator and figure out how to bring it to the facility's main base. Here's how to find and recover the Abandoned Facility's generator in RoadCraft. Abandoned Facility location in RoadCraft You'll find the Abandoned Facility directly southeast of the Forward Base you visited earlier in RoadCraft's Precipice campaign mission. As you traveled from the Phosphate Plant to the Forward Base, you'll now find an additional quest circle south of you, past Orange Grove and a Pumping Station.

It curves slightly and has some muddy terrain, but it's mostly a straight shot down to where you need to go. If you get stuck, you can turn on all-wheel drive and diff-lock to make escaping easier. How to find and deliver the object Before you can fully recover the Abandoned Facility's generator, you'll need to deliver an object from within the area's half-built structures. As you drive into the facility and use your Object Scanner to track nearby items, you'll spot a box atop the building's western wing.

Instead, we've got a mini obstacle course to tackle, introducing you to interactive environments. Start from the wall directly west of the box, drive southeast down the dirt path until you spot a ramp. In front of this ramp is a wooden board with yellow and black tape across it, which you can drive into to access the building.

Your safest bet is to drive up the ramp, lightly tap the board without flying off the edge, then reverse back down and flip the other to create a ramp-bridge combo. You can also use your car's winch system to navigate the area or help flip your car over if you accidentally drive off a ledge.

As you turn to leave, you'll spot a fourth wooden board to your left that, when pushed, will lead you down another ramp to the abandoned facility's quest area. Once you bring the generator to the abandoned facility's quest circle, you'll complete your current objective, rewarding you with 1,200 XP and 2,520 cash. You'll also receive your next RoadCraft campaign mission, letting you learn more about the benefits of activating this particular generator.
