Using the fast travel system in Once Human can save you significant time and resources. The alternative is riding your vehicle around the map, which consumes fuel—a rare resource that will eventually run out. While you have to discover and activate the Teleportation Towers first, once activated, you can travel vast distances almost instantly with just a loading screen.
That said, the fast travel system in Once Human functions slightly differently from those in other MMOs. You can't fast travel from just anywhere on the map in this game; you must be near a Teleportation Tower to do it. However, there is a trick to bypass this limitation, allowing you to teleport to a tower from any location on the map.
How to unlock fast travel in Once Human
You must first activate the Teleportation Towers to fast travel in Once Human. These towers are spread across the various regions in the game, and once activated, you can travel instantly between them.
It's a good practice to activate all the towers in a region whenever the main story quest takes you to a new area, as this makes future questing much more convenient. The Teleportation Towers are marked by the radio tower symbol on the map, so you can travel to them one by one during exploration.

How to fast travel in Once Human from any location on the map
A great tip for beginners, which many newcomers might be unaware of, is that while you can fast travel from one Teleportation Tower to another, you can also do this from your base.
Since you can fast travel to your base from anywhere on the map with a 10-minute cooldown, a great trick is to first fast travel to your base and then fast travel to the tower near your desired location. This allows you to circumvent the necessity to first go to a nearby Teleportation Tower on your vehicle, essentially saving you a lot of time by performing two back-to-back fast travels.
