Jump Space Buddy Guide | Solo Companion Buddybot
Jump Space can be played fully solo, and the reason it works is because of Buddybot, your personal robot drone. This companion keeps the ship running, supplies flowing, and enemies under control while you focus on piloting and survival.
What Buddy does in solo play
Buddy is given automatically when starting a solo run. It repairs damaged systems, restocks ammo, retrieves items, and supports you in combat. It can also revive you if you get knocked down, making single-player missions possible without constant failure.
Combat support
Buddy fights alongside you with consistent aim, helping clear enemies both on board and outside the ship. Its firepower takes some of the pressure off so you can focus on piloting or using heavy weapons. Ammo is used actively, so keep resupply in mind.
Repairs and ship upkeep
When the ship is hit, Buddy patches systems enough to keep you flying. While you may still need to handle bigger fixes, the drone handles routine damage. This gives you space to stay on the helm or weapons without running back and forth.
Item retrieval and resupply
Buddy picks up dropped resources and carries them back to the ship. It also helps restock ammo so you can stay in the fight longer. This keeps the solo loop smooth without constant backtracking.
Revives and survival
If you go down mid-mission, Buddy can revive you. This safety net is what balances solo play, giving you a second chance instead of ending the run instantly.
Final Blurb
Buddy makes Jump Space solo mode fully workable. It fights, repairs, gathers, and revives, leaving you free to pilot and control the mission flow. With Buddy at your side, you can handle full content alone without missing key features.
