*[[Image:Solar Jetman equip shields.gif|left|25px]] '''Shields''': The single most important item in the game. Always have these on unless you are carrying something. These keep bullets from destroying you in one hit and greatly reduce the amount of fuel you lose when hitting things. Your human form does not have shields. Found on [[Solar Jetman: Hunt for the Golden Warship/Walkthrough#Planet 01: Preludon|Preludon]] and can be enhanced with [[Solar Jetman: Hunt for the Golden Warship/Items & Equipment#Ship Parts|Super Shields]].

*[[Image:Solar Jetman equip tractor.gif|left|25px]] '''Tractor beam''': A short energy beam that can carry items as long as your shields are down. The tractor beam engages as soon as you are in range and don't have shields up. If you want to drop an item, just raise your shields. When you upgrade your pod you can carry different things. Equiped from the start of the game.

*[[Image:Solar Jetman equip gun.gif|left|25px]] '''Main gun''': A somewhat automatic gun that fires directly forward. Weak, but you have unlimited ammo. Upgraded pods have better firing capabilities. Always equiped, and can be enhanced with [[Solar Jetman: Hunt for the Golden Warship/Items & Equipment#Bullet Packs|Bullet Packs]].

*[[Image:Solar Jetman equip booster.gif|left|25px]] '''Thrusters''': Accelerates your pod forward. How much you accelerate depends on what direction you are going, gravity, and if you are carrying anything. Using the thrusters consumes fuel, so don't use it if you can just drift to where you want to go. Using the stronger boost accelerates you faster and may be necessary to build up enough momentum to overcome gravity, but burns fuel very rapidly. Always equiped, and can be upgraded with [[Solar Jetman: Hunt for the Golden Warship/Items & Equipment#Equipment|Boosters]] and enhanced with [[Solar Jetman: Hunt for the Golden Warship/Items & Equipment#Ship Parts|Double Strength Thrusters]]

* '''[[Solar Jetman: Hunt for the Golden Warship/Items & Equipment#Special Weapons|Equipment]]''': Equipment you can buy from the store in between worlds. These items have a limited use, but can be refilled when you go to the ship. If your pod is destroyed, you lose whatever specials you had on you.

* '''Map/Radar''': A large map of the planet you are currently on. The planet is automatically mapped, so you can see all areas, even if you haven't explored them yet. Later on you can get radar which will show you where all of the items and wormholes are located. The map is found on [[Solar Jetman: Hunt for the Golden Warship/Walkthrough#Planet 01: Planet 02: Mexomorf|Mexomorf]] and the Radar upgrade can be [[Solar Jetman: Hunt for the Golden Warship/Store|purchased]] in [[Solar Jetman: Hunt for the Golden Warship/Walkthrough#Intermission: Store #3|Store #3]].
