Stupid "Any Edible Bone" bug

[sand vapor]

I meant a "base local teleporter"

[junior flint]

Anyone wanna let me hitchhike for the mission?

[sand vapor]

better check in the #nms-expedition

[junior flint]

Ah sweet

[lost stratus]

Is it better to use less parts so you can have more stuff like S class modules?

[tardy shoal]

just hop in someone's corvette at the anomaly and stowaway

[junior rose]

i think its more clever to first install upgrades for your corvette because they are stronger then the corvette parts?

[junior rose]

if that makes sense

[junior rose]

whats the technology of it looking likev

[harsh lichen]

corvette engines (atleast big ones) in my experience were better then upgrades directly. but then again you should fit most of your stuff in the slots if its a smaller corvette

[lost stratus]

What happens if you then put parts which exceed the tech limit?

[shut ingot]

Anyone noticed how having two hatches on the same corvette completely breaks the open and close function half the time?

[sand vapor]

when you place multiple engines, which ones will be set in the tech slots ?
any idea?

[lusty ravine]

I think you aren't getting the concept of the elevator

[junior rose]

they become cosmetics

[harsh lichen]

thats just hatches in general for me

[shut ingot]

All of them

[sand vapor]

I think I did, you have 2 levels on your corvette and you use the elevato to go up and down between those levels, right ?

[junior rose]

i mean the hub gives me additional slots but i dont need them really

[tidal flint]

I'm having issues with walkways rn, i really don't know what's causing this...

[sand vapor]

if I add 10 engines i'm certain there is only like 3 of them in there

[lusty ravine]

Yeah kinda. Then what's is the telaportor better for? How would it do the same thing

[shut ingot]

I have five on mine and they all appear inside of the technology tab

[abstract crow]

Completely redid my smaller interceptor design and gave it different "wings". I think it looks much better than my first design. Certainly considering more designs with a similar wing setup. Maybe bigger.

[sand vapor]

jsut the same thing but allows you to teleport between 2 connected teleportes

[lusty ravine]

I think im confused then bc i dont get how you can set telaportes in your ship. You only have the beam down to ground thing i thought

[sand vapor]

give me a moment i'll show you

[harsh lichen]

unless you glitch teleporters in (which they wont work due to lack of power) idk how you would make it work

[lusty ravine]

How to

[abstract crow]

You can use a mod to put a base teleporter. But there's also the other type of teleporter that allows you to go from point A to point B inside the ship.

[lusty ravine]

I dont mod. Only glitch

[bitter canyon]

Do you guys have any name suggestions?

[lusty ravine]

Blue myth

[sand vapor]

this is my corvette and these are my tecs ... I only have 3 in there

[tough token]

hey, im going for a sleak "arrow" kind of design, but struggling to find the right parts to cleanly expand the ship as it goes backwards. any ideas? for the roof for example, I want something which slants on both sides but I can't find anything

[bitter canyon]

ah its completely black actually that piucture looks blue

[high pivot]

Hey guys i need your help, I built my corvette ship last night and today I wanted to modify it a bit and I removed a walkway from the ship and now I cant build anything on the ship, I cant add new parts and if I remove core components like the reactor I cant add it back in. how do I fix this?

[shut ingot]

Did you increase your tech slots after building the engines?

[hollow lotus]

some anime mass slaughter magic looking

[lusty ravine]

Completely black myth

[signal flare]

lmao yeah it looks like third impact

[sand vapor]

dont think so, but dont remember

[tardy shoal]

aaand the issue is back. This is my sign to go to bed. Hoping for another hotpatch soon.

[near sand]

Hello everyone, returning player here and was wondering if its worth it starting to build a corvette or if i should just do normal ship hunting like before? i mainly like the hauler ships but they seem to be a money pit

[shut ingot]

Yeah this update has a lot of issues...

[hollow lotus]

atlas is tweaking a bit
simulation aint simulating

[silent stone]

AN absolutely masterpiece

[harsh lichen]

you can store ALOT on corvettes since it can have cargo mods

[lusty ravine]

The vacuum

[shut ingot]

A lot of this I have zero idea how they were not caught and fixed before the update was released

[tardy shoal]

oof.

[harsh lichen]

going from no playable ship interiors (for actual flyable ships) to have modular ones is a pretty big challenge i imagine

[shut ingot]

Yes, but this happens on every corvette 90% of the time when trying to return after beaming back on them at a freigther

[near sand]

i see, i mainly meant looks not necesarily space but knowing that its a plus

[sand vapor]

thank you 😅 not that special I think but gave me some work.
you can see the whole thing here if you like
#nms-showcase-corvettes message

[shut ingot]

How that would have been under their radar is astonishing

[harsh lichen]

i personally havent had it happen to me luckily

[hollow lotus]

im betting on lots of issues being dependent on population

[harsh lichen]

haulers and corvettes have similar shapes anyways

[near sand]

also i am playing normaly so thanks for the insight, i dont think i will sink money into haulers and will make a corvette then

[hollow lotus]

you dont have handfulls of ppl running around on testing

at same time at least

[sand vapor]

this is what I was refering to. But it seems it's bugged and you cant place the connecting cables ...

[harsh lichen]

i hope they fix alot of the issues (and maybe some qol changes) and maybe more corvette parts in a future update would be cool

[shy void]

anyone had any luck finding the sentinel multitool, my log keeps telling me a distant system no matter how many times i reset it so im unsure where ive went wrong

[lost stratus]

Is it reccommended to put all of the tech (like economy scanners) you want on the corvette before all the parts?

[hollow lotus]

autophage ones ?

[harsh lichen]

gotta find a dissonant planet

and search for harmony camp (i think its called)

[harsh lichen]

probably yeahg

[shut ingot]

Why am I doing backflips in the anomaly

[hollow lotus]

go to dissonant system then whack some corrupted sentinels for echo locator

[harsh lichen]

or that

[hollow lotus]

that will get you to the camp with tool to take

[shy void]

ah right ok, lemme try that

[hollow lotus]

it will be either shotgun looking one or drill mixed with mauser and horizontal drum mag lodged in it

[lusty ravine]

Thats crazy I must have overlooked this ive never seen these parts

[shy void]

is this the thing?

[lusty ravine]

Resonate

[harsh lichen]

thats a base only part iirc and shouldnt work on corvettes intentionally

[sand vapor]

you can uplock them in the Anolamy (first level on the back)

they are base building parts but it seems you can use them in the corvette too

[lusty ravine]

Interesting

Maybe possible to use in my podracer build

This one

Would that be possible?

[tardy shoal]

The Atlas is definitely tweaking.

[shut ingot]

Lovely weather

[pseudo charm]

okay what the french! Have any of you tried to land on a planet. get out of your corvette then summon your freighter above? your corvette disappears! AND it was off the summon list! WHOA thank god for reload from earlier! Almost lost my baby!

[tardy shoal]

I had that. the corvette just gets yoinked to the freighter

[shut ingot]

In multiplayer groups you can also yoink your friends to your freighter by spawning it occasionally

[lusty ravine]

Never happened

[raw wraith]

So close to being complete.

Anyone here with aviation knowledge have any suggestions where to put those red/green lights?

[proven bramble]

How do you get it to be so long?

[raw wraith]

Glitching.

There's a split second between transitioning from a green location to a red one. Click in that window and you snap to the red one.

[tardy shoal]

I think so far the list of notable bugs/issues they need to address with corvettes includes:

• Corvette parts getting turned into edible bones in player inventory when removed from a corvette
• Corvettes spawning on top of/clipped into bases when player arrives via teleporter
• Corvettes at settlements spawning on the normal landing pad
• Corvettes get yoinked to freighter when freighter is first summoned to a planet
• Corvettes do not consistently stay docked at freighter when player warps the freighter to new system.
• Corvette Ambasador habs lose thier doorway when connecting to other habs front to back. Side to side doorways unaffected.

And that's just what I could think of off the top of my head.

[proud dune]

its so difficult to make ships looks luxurious i wanna make a cruise ship

[pseudo charm]

it scared the crap outta me. I didn't wanna lose my baby after two days of construction!

[hollow lotus]

eat bones

make use of em

dont let em turn to waste

[silent stone]

really sick

[tardy shoal]

I just sold them since they can be sold as one stack. faster than consuming them one by one.

[hollow lotus]

habs loosing doorway is not limited to ambasador habs
it also happens with other ambassador parts and that entrance elevator one

rotating em tends to help

[tardy shoal]

rotating?

[raw wraith]

There's a good chance the only reason it's in the menu is as a leftover from them trying different ways to beam players up.

[stray heart]

finally done i think!

[raw wraith]

Very nice.

[hollow lotus]

pressing rotation few times on both parts

like this one i had to rotate the middle part to link to right side

[pseudo charm]

did you use the Defiant as inspiration? Because I love it!

[stray heart]

no didnt use any specific inspiration

just tried to build something that looked good with the available parts lol

[olive dust]

I had that issue, when I placed a space heater near the transition between two sections. Once removed, the issue was resolved. Try removing anything near that transition.

[pseudo charm]

it looks AWESOME 🙂 That's why I ask.. thats my corvette from planet side 🙂

[tidal flint]

I found the problem was a positron cannon I installed below phased through the floor, causing me to be about a few pixels higher hence the trouble going through 😅

[bitter canyon]

do these keep disappearing for other people too?

[mossy cove]

Hello Games, My hangar is full and I still have so many Corvette build ideas and I am an admitted spaceship hoarder. At one time I had over 80 ships in that other spaceship building game that shall remain unnamed. cough cough Starfield.

[small plaza]

Meh.

Also finally got the photo mode to work properly

[scenic hearth]

Okay, so, now I'm literally soft locked inside my escher painting of a Corvette merged with my base. Can't reach the teleporter any more. A little afraid to try loading the game again

Aha! I managed to climb ontop of something to get to the teleporter.

[hollow lotus]

hear me out
place landing pad somewhere nearby

the fancy one not the square one

[scenic hearth]

I do.

Not the fancy one. lemme try that

[hollow lotus]

for some reason they dont snap to square one

but ive been noticing em snapign to fancy one

at least after teleport

[scenic hearth]

I'll give that a shot. I'd like them to just "hover" over the base and let us build a teleport pad that lets us beam into our active corvette.

[hollow lotus]

sometimes lands sometimes hovers above idk whats the rule for that

[pseudo charm]

that looks stupendous!

[cloud junco]

I hope they add an option to disable the gravity orientation when landing the corvette
I'm starting to feel queasy thanks to the vertigo it causes

[small plaza]

Really? It's very basic

[eager sky]

Have you stored some of your ships?

[uneven mirage]

on the corvette? yes, after i placed mine initially it looked fine, then after getting the carbon it went empty and has stayed that way ever since, even though i can still get the carbon from it. doesn't look so great in my corvette garden.

[bitter canyon]

Thoughts on my storage/plant area

[bitter canyon]

yeah same

kinda sucks

[small plaza]

I like these engine bays. I'm gonna use it on larger corvettes

[hollow lotus]

not enough geknip

[uneven mirage]

i assume it's a bug and will likely get fixed eventually. I'm guessing cosmetic bugs aren't as high on the team's list right now

[bitter canyon]

yeah probably

[hollow lotus]

where is the gek nip noah

[bitter canyon]

hope to see it fixed tho someday

[hollow lotus]

where is it

[sterile garnet]

anyone help I cannot find scrap on the planets that say salvageable scrap in the description...the target sweep in analysis visor just points me in the direction but i search for hours with nothing

[hollow lotus]

yellow wifi symbols are the scrap

[proven bramble]

How should i make the front of this? Kinda stuck here ngl

[sterile garnet]

yeah i know...there arent any on any salvageable scrap planet i land on...nothing

[hollow lotus]

sometimes it do be like that

waterworlds especially are wonky with digup stuff

[proven bramble]

Only some planets have it, you gotta look for the ones that say that it has it

[hollow lotus]

can say it is there but tbh thats a lie

[lost stratus]

Has anyone figured out the best tech layout for a corvette?

[hollow lotus]

too bugged to consider trying

hab pieces still dont update properly after placing

[lost stratus]

I'm still really early game, would you reccommend just not messing with corvettes until they're fixed?

[hollow lotus]

do what you want and worry later

corvettes are quite easy to make if you have time to spare lookign for parts

[lost stratus]

What's actually bugged about them other than hab pieces? Also wdym they don't update properly

[lost stratus]

Already did, I have tons of parts

[scenic hearth]

Did not work for me. Still in an escher painting after teleporting

[hollow lotus]

ouch

[hollow lotus]

yolo it is then

[lost stratus]

I just don't know what ratio of modules and things like economy scanner, to physical parts I should do

[cerulean bobcat]

What do we think boys

[hollow lotus]

enough physical parts to have room for normal ones

[half fjord]

Way better then my ugly ship

[hollow lotus]

pieces tend to tweak out either way in tech inventory so bit of trial and error will be present

[hollow lotus]

red that means fast

[scenic hearth]

Welp, I'm just gonna not teleport home for a while I guess. Or just remember to swap to a Starship before I do. Annoying. Hope this gets fixed sooner than later.

[lost stratus]

Do people generally use ALL of the normal ones (except weapons, ig people pick 2 or 3), and do you reckon I use all of the normal pieces? Like all of the scanners, illegal deflector thing, etc?

[hollow lotus]

for me scanners are pretty much optional on corvette

just teleport reciever and some warp range modules

and this for style points

[scenic hearth]

Depends on what you're using your ship to do. I use it for trade a lot, so definitely want the economy scanner. Though not being able to land on Trading Outposts is kind of annoying.

[hollow lotus]

placing teleport gate somewhere farther away is also an option

cant lodge into base if its far away enough

[buoyant loom]

what do u think ?

[scenic hearth]

Meh. Then I'd need to build a short range teleporter to get from the "teleport spot" back home, etc. Doable, but can't be arsed in the short term.

[hollow lotus]

im seeing ship amongus in this ship

[hollow lotus]

i wish we had trains

like small bullet trains

would make railway network between settlement and other bases

[scenic hearth]

Ziplines would be a similar, smaller solution that would probably fit with existing code around the "power lines" and the like.

[hollow lotus]

astroneer kind of trains would be nice

[buoyant loom]

Hihihha

[hollow lotus]

single rail train

would fit well with some corvette landing pad space

big ships big space needed, probably distanced for comfort of locals reasons like irl airports

[scenic hearth]

Kinda runs into the 300 diameter problem before too long.

#nms-showcase-corvettes is where to show off your corvette »

[hollow lotus]

what if rail parts are same category as portables just limited in number to prevent spam

that way we could have corvette landing spot as separate base

[scenic hearth]

Would be difficult to code around the fact that it's not attached to a specific base for teleport shennanigans, but theoretically possible I imagine.

[pseudo charm]

thats where the best things begin. From there you can only go UP

[scenic hearth]

So, I tried moving my base computer and I got a different escher painting. One that I could escape from. So I'm gonna see if moving my base computer down the hill makes a difference.

[pseudo charm]

I thnk you are ready for battle 🙂

[hasty hound]

People make building a ship like this way to easy, but I feel its hard.

[late minnow]

I’m brand new and REALLY want a corvette. Is there a way to get the parts for free? I heard you can go to planets to salvage

[hasty hound]

is the any items on a corvettee that have no limits? or does it all have limits.

[scenic hearth]

It did not. Back to the unescapable escher painting. Drat.

[hasty hound]

@late minnow yep you need to find the salvage plants, it be the golden salvage ones, not the white/gray

planets*

[scenic hearth]

It'll say "Salvagable Scrap" from the scan. Like this:

[orchid orchid]

does anyone know if you can land your starship on a corvette without making it phase through it when you pilot the corvette?

[scenic hearth]

As in, carry your starship around inside your corvette?

[orchid orchid]

On, not inside

[scenic hearth]

I don't think you can carry it inside or outside, if that's what your asking.

[orchid orchid]

i alredy landed them on it but, when i pilot the corvette they phase through

[orchid orchid]

i mean, landing a starship on a bridge of a corvette

[hasty hound]

@scenic hearth thanks, I was about to find a planet witht hat on.

[scenic hearth]

Yeah, I don't think you can carry a starship with the corvette. Would be a neat idea but I don't imagine it works that way. Based on your apparent testing, it seems not

[orchid orchid]

sadly, but cool screenshots can be made if you don't move the ship

[scenic hearth]

True enough. Smallest ship class that has landing pads for starships seems to be frigates. The biggest Corvettes are still smaller than most frigates. But who knows, maybe we'll get there.

[orchid orchid]

my mini freighter can carry 2 starships and be completely ok but, i can't since they phase through

[golden bear]

is there a known bug concerning the "ambassador" hab with the mission terminal? you can glitch into the side of it very easily and just walk through the wall, lemme see if i can record it

[scenic hearth]

Maybe they'll adapt the corvette feature to be able to buidl custom frigates with landing pads one day. That'd be neat.

[orchid orchid]

freighters are not my type of ship, too much limited

[hasty hound]

Trouble is, the Corvettee not really made to be a freigher, least at this time, who knows in the future.

[small plaza]

Made a big beefy version of it. I have strict internal space requirements since I want a pretty much fully functional flying base, and this is about the minimum size

[small plaza]

Looks nice

[orchid orchid]

it can be, it just needs the starships to be fixed on it

when piloted

the only need

[scenic hearth]

Freighter != Frigate. There are combat frigates, exploration frigates, industrial frigates, etc. already in the game. Just not player pilotable.

[orchid orchid]

the point is, i wanna pilot it, take it through systems while im inside of it and fully customize it

[scenic hearth]

There's probably a lot more to it than you realize, but I'm sure the devs would love the ability to add hangerbays eventually.

[orchid orchid]

Ik but, i dont want new content on it, just the possibility that the ship just fixes to the corvette when it lands on it

[harsh bear]

For real lol

[scenic hearth]

None of the landing pads "move" so moving one ship when another ship moves is "new content."So to speak.

[fervent mist]

hey, does anyone here have those resonant shard decoration pieces from expedition 10? i need em to complete stuff. i just need to come in and pick up one each

[orchid orchid]

#nms-lfg-or-trades

[fervent mist]

i hath asked there, good sir. i am just a bit desperate 😢

[hollow lotus]

if i had a nickel for each time ambassador parts were tweaking i would have handfull of em

which isnt alot but its not as little as 2 either

[golden bear]

looks like the entire terminal just issnt there x)

[viral pumice]

some screenshots of my flying garden

[woeful comet]

Are staircases the only way up within corvettes?

[ebon torrent]

Oh! Oh my! How does she handle?

[hollow lotus]

and currently tweakign teleporters

but nothign we cant wait to get ironed out

worth the time

[woeful comet]

Damn I still need to unlock teleporters then lol

Also is there no way to place wall features on the breadth of habs?

Like here

[pseudo charm]

that ALSO is looking stupendous! How is the manuverability?

[small plaza]

Not great, but I also don't have anything apart from what the modules give, around 550

[small plaza]

This is in creative so I haven't bought any tech upgrades

Can probably get it up to 1k easy

[pseudo charm]

yeah we work with what we have on hand. and I bet there's stuff on the horizon

[small plaza]

Played around with it, didn't like the AEW&C module up top

Now it got 3 zenith reactors, and a base jump of 1200

[pseudo charm]

I tell you creative is a good way to get started. I am now having completed the construciton of my ship turned creative off and am enjoying scavaging for parts with teammates 🙂

[small plaza]

Exactly my plan, got the build and the parts list figured out and I'll go back to my normal save and start scavenging

This is common practice for most building games anyway

[haughty sage]

can any1 tell me why the stats are much lower after i upgraded to A?

[mild stratus]

Finally finished my autophage tech ship will probably add external decorations when I know they won't make my ship spin

[small plaza]

Damn nice

[viral bear]

This is sick!

[loud coral]

Okay, I totally suck at building a corvette. I have a design in my head but I dont get it correctly build.

How on earth do people build beautiful ships? D:

[marble cipher]

How can I get other cannons for my corvette and how do i trade for ambassador pieces ?

[mild stratus]

Thank you 😊 took me ages to get everything aligned perfectly and have a more curved outershell

[pseudo charm]

still its an adventure

[late minnow]

I am on a planet with salvageable scrap but i dont know what to look for

[severe cedar]

icons look the same as the ones that give scavanged data, but then gold/yellow

[marble cipher]

?

[late minnow]

Ok thank you

[late minnow]

ARe they the same as buried technology moduels because thats all i see where i am

[river herald]

is making this possible?

[quiet vale]

It would be very challenging

[severe cedar]

yes they are but in fewer quantities

[abstract crow]

Lightly slanted sings would be almost impossible. Either no slant, or hella slant.

[loud crown]

fixed some details on my railgun ship

[abstract crow]

I guess a slight slant would be possible if you used the right amount of diffusers and those triangle-like pieces and progressively used smaller sized ones as you went.

[ashen sparrow]

This last update turned out pretty good. :3 Finally, limitless creativity is possible and we can design our own ships. :3 For the joy of it, I even tried to copy the little ship icon from the editor. 🤣

[sharp garnet]

I have a few landing bays on my ship, how do I set one to be the one that I beam up to so it doesn't keep sending me to the wrong one?

[silver thicket]

Hey everyone i maybe stupid but im not seeing any guides online on how to get corvette ship parts. I can buy the few in the store but there's pages of parts how do I get those ?

[slate cosmos]

what happens if I make alot of changes to a corvette, instead of applying changes I save it, then I go to a new landing pad and resume changes then save? will first ship get changed?

[quiet vale]

Look for a planet with Salvagable Scrap, then dig up the scrap containers buried on the surface

[sharp garnet]

you either trade for them using pasts you have or find a planet with buried technology, find the gold wifi symbol

[woeful comet]

I did me best

[final kraken]

why cant i see other player's corvettes, and they cant see mine?

[quiet vale]

Once you have a corvette you can speed it up by exiting your chair mid flight and scanning for them inside your ship, then shooting them with the photon cannon

[white night]

so how do i get more modules im confused

[hollow lotus]

⛏️

[silver thicket]

Thanks so I just dig em up and when I go back to corvette console ill just randomly have more ships parts to use ? Or you i have to make the scrap into something somewhere ?

[hollow lotus]

gotta dig em up from salvage scrap

[quiet vale]

When you break the scrap containers it gets added to your inventory

[silver thicket]

Ah interesting thanks

[abstract crow]

Spend a few hours going crazy digging up parts, figure out what parts you really want/need, and trade the ones you don't in for more of what you do.

[quiet vale]

There's a storage container for ship parts next to the console so you don't have to carry all of them at once

[woeful comet]

with one of the landing bays, you can create a functional transporter room

[static summit]

my current build

[toxic basin]

Here is my 3rd design I made

[somber sparrow]

If I have a stack of cockpits, is it randomized when I finalize the build if any of them are going to be higher than C tier?

[toxic basin]

I change my ship level like any ship in the game from tier C to S, but I like to have more a color choice like in the outfit

[somber sparrow]

the modules all have their own tier though

[toxic basin]

true I was thinking the same higher ones needs to be more different then the lower tier

[tropic locust]

Is it worth it to set up a bare-bone corvette while I'm scrounging for parts?

[late minnow]

I dont want to sound like a beggar but does anyone have any spare core moduels so that I can get my first corvette

[junior rose]

how do you build room to the side?

like i dont know how i can make my ship wide

[olive eagle]

I wonder if I can move the entirety of my ship?

[harsh bear]

Battleship anyone?

[olive eagle]

Idk personally I just put rooms and they connect by themselves

[junior rose]

gotcha thanks!

[late minnow]

How do i get reactors and stuff

[ocean coyote]

Anyone had an error when reediting their Corvette where it says all modules must be connected?

I wanted to update my Space 1999 Eagle Transporter but this happens...

Tried moving and resnapping everything...

(Interior is decorated)

[olive eagle]

Go into the corvette building central and check "Basic modules"

You need at least 1 reactor for it to be able to take off

[late minnow]

What other required stuff is there

[olive eagle]

If you want Advanced modules, you need to look for planets with "Salvageable scrap"

[olive eagle]

A cab, a cockpit, a thruster and a weapon

If I remember correctly

Besides the reactor, of course

[late minnow]

Ok

Do i need wings?

[olive eagle]

Then you take these parts, and you can trade them

[olive eagle]

No, it can just be a flying box

But you know, its fun to build a "ship-looking" ship

Or do whatever you want, thats what NMS is for

[wild cloud]

Are there any build guides explaining the mechanics of corvettes?

[hot moat]

yeah I think some of the engines/reactors need to be attached to something besides each other

[olive eagle]

100% sure there is

[late minnow]

It says i need an entry way thing

[olive eagle]

Oh yeah my bad, you also need a landing gear and a entry bay

[sand vapor]

not yet. Its not clear (I beieve) how things work
but is there anything in particular you would like to know ?

[ocean coyote]

Mine are attached to the rear of the habitats

[wild cloud]

I was looking for charts explaining how different parts add to the ship's stats, like how many enginge you can have.

[crimson wigeon]

@ocean coyotefinally a man of culture

[ocean coyote]

Oh you mean engines not attached to reactor

[crimson wigeon]

space 1999

omg

10/10

[ocean coyote]

Tnx

[gritty glade]

landing gear

[sand vapor]

Yeh.. trying to I understand it myself. 😢

[gritty glade]

oh you mentioned that after, mb

[crimson wigeon]

just saying

[late minnow]

Ok I need 4,750,000 credits fast

[wild cloud]

fYeh. I know where to go for like, Helldivers or Soulslike datamined stats but I'm new to NMS

[wild cloud]

Dig up more corvette parts

[somber sparrow]

I somehow ended up with non-corvette parts in my corvette workshop cache. Any way to get them out? They're grayed out

[olive eagle]

No problem

[ocean coyote]

I think you use them to trade for new parts

[somber sparrow]

These are not corvette parts. Like ancient keys.

[ocean coyote]

Oh just sell

[somber sparrow]

I can't

[novel plover]

when i try to save my ship it doesnt let me and says all modules must be connected

[crimson wigeon]

sadly my thunderbird 2 corvette has comeltly dissapered summoning it just makes the ship decal appear but nothing is there

[wild cloud]

Definitely make a bug report

[olive eagle]

There must be a part like the torpedo launcher that isnt mounted correctly

[crimson wigeon]

when i went to a station to see it in there in the edit option nothing was there no parts nothing

[ocean coyote]

Nope still same error 😔

[olive eagle]

Call your normal ship, leave the station, go back, and call your corvette again

See if that works

[olive eagle]

There must be a red outlined part somewhere there

[hasty hound]

mostly ends up the guns for me.

check your guns.

[olive eagle]

^

[hasty hound]

the rocket one is always an issue.

[crimson wigeon]

@ocean coyotei know what your issue it

i bet its the landing legs

sometimes they disconnect

even thopugh you place it first lol

[real cosmos]

Ladies and gentlemen - I present to you; The Ebon Hawk v2.1

[icy kraken]

I want to make an outlaw-escue modified shuttle corvette, but I just can't wrap my head around what shape I want for it, oof

[crimson wigeon]

check the mag landing gear i normally have issues with them after ive placed stuff or maybe moved stuff

[olive eagle]

Try some muscle cars inspirations, like the hot wheels twin mill

Those fuel rods look insane

If you can make a ship with that

[novel plover]

it was a invisible part that was just floating after removing some stuff it showed up

[ocean coyote]

Must be a bug... deleted & replaced them and same.
I can quit out and still fly ship 😆 just won't let me refinalise it

[olive eagle]

Nice

[crimson wigeon]

@ocean coyotetheres a building technique for corvettes so you can have gaps inside your builds ect using this pic as an example feel free to delete

[hot moat]

damn, I did have to basically rebuild mine

check whether anything else is attached weird underneath

[olive eagle]

Wtf this is a singular ship?

[gusty ether]

is there a web guide for a good ship? and what all the parts do etc

[crimson wigeon]

@olive eagleyea

[olive eagle]

Goddamn

[icy kraken]

I'm torn between making my corvette look like a modified mining ship or a modified hauler

[crimson wigeon]

@olive eaglei can explain the method

[olive eagle]

For me, I just put stuff and thought "man, it looks good"

[pseudo charm]

oh wow. the mission computer on your ships SHARES the mission with whomever is in your group!

[olive eagle]

Would be cool

[gusty ether]

same here

[gusty ether]

beautiful

[pseudo charm]

oh in the fourth picture is that the BACK with the engines? ohh nice

[real cosmos]

Yes sir!

[crimson wigeon]

@olive eagleso in regard to this ship id built extra blcoks to connect each ship so i could finalise the great thing is that after finalising move to another pad infron oyour new corvette and create a new one, you can then delete parts off your other corvette from that location making it save ect

[ocean coyote]

Even tried deleting all 4 legs & landing gear & putting one gear underneath to see if error disappeared.
I am beginning to think its an error carried over from the internal decorating

[pseudo charm]

lookin fantastic and a GOOD use of the rounded part!

[crimson wigeon]

@olive eagleits as easy as that

[olive eagle]

Oh cool

I accidentally did that

[icy kraken]

Alright y'all, I need y'alls help.

Do I make my ship an, A, modified mining ship or B, modified hauler ship

I'm going for a "Nomadic outlaw" vibe with it

[crimson wigeon]

@olive eagleonly downside is you cannot delete further back slots from the middle corvette building area

if you had mutlple players in the same station you could maybe work around that

[raven rover]

Mining would be cool

[quiet vale]

Which cockpit looks better in your guys' opinions?

[raven rover]

Thunderbird all the way

[olive eagle]

1

[sly oak]

Is there a comet/meteor/natural looking build out there? I like the idea of aliens disguising their ship as something natural and am curious if anything has come up yet. I am on the Swtich so I can’t find out myself.

I really like the ones that end up like space jungles too.

[quiet vale]

Thunderbird it is, thanks

[raven rover]

https://youtu.be/UmcrRQCy0DU?si=KszzYXk-2JUJSdRQ

[raven rover]

@sly oak

[toxic crown]

did anyone elses corvette turn into a starter ship?

[raven rover]

is that what youre looking for?

[raven rover]

No?

Thats concerning

[toxic crown]

I will try to scrap it to see how much its worth

[icy kraken]

Yess. Mining ships are always so damn cool

[olive eagle]

😭

[static summit]

wierd glitch

[raven rover]

this is my take on mining ships

[icy kraken]

Ooooh that's a clean one

[raven rover]

But its hella unusable

Crashes into thin air every 3 secs

Bcs of the robot arms

Hoping it gets fixed

[icy kraken]

See, I gotta decide now.

Should my mining ship have its thunderbird landing bay (the elevator) be centralized, or more towards the front or back

[olive eagle]

Hoes does a mining ship work

You mine stuff with it?

I mean, thats obvious, but how?

[icy kraken]

It's just based on mining ships in sci-fi media

Stuff like asteroid miners and the such

[olive eagle]

Ohh neat

[viral pumice]

my 2nd corvette so far, would logve to make it even more bigger and add more details but this thing is at 100/100 complexity so guess i have to wait for mods and/or patches

[raven rover]

elevator is broken af

[daring heron]

how to determine corvette position when teleport to the base? like when i teleport to my base, it block my way out

[tepid badge]

Tried a super mini TIE Interceptor build. Guide if you want one ---> https://youtu.be/k6nRA1k-PTI?si=LH77pKlmOL9ih0ER

[raven rover]

thats sick brotherman

[icy kraken]

I love the elevator, honestly

It's my favorite entrance

[raven rover]

Yeah i like it too

But man half of the time it just wont closs

[tepid badge]

Makes it super easy to get a nice profile in flight

[static summit]

my habs are not connecting properly its wierd

[olive eagle]

Any reason for my camera to be slighty offset to the left just like gta IV?

[tepid badge]

Thanks! I'm having so much fun making different builds

[static summit]

no doors are appearing and internal ladders are bugged

[raven rover]

relog

I had that problem tok

Too

See if that fixes it

[ocean coyote]

Folks I found what was causing the module error.... there was a random teleporter floating right up by the ceiling.
After deleting it, it removed error.
Sorry about that.
@crimson wigeon @olive eagle @hot moat

[wraith quiver]

is your cockpit off kilter

[olive eagle]

No, its in the center

I think

Lol

[wraith quiver]

Lol i had this issue when i built a ship off center from the pad

but only when i landed. was fine with flying.

but i hated it to i rebuilt

[olive eagle]

Entirely?

[tawdry topaz]

where can I report the issue with Ambassador windows?

[wraith quiver]

yeah entirely, but i wanted to rebuild it anyway

[raven rover]

!hg

dang

Gunter hg

[olive eagle]

Welp im not doing that lol

I will wait for a patch that allows the movement on the entire ship

[wraith quiver]

lmfao yeah id just keep it and wait tbh

[ocean coyote]

Feel silly not looking up for floating parts now lol

[acoustic salmon]

Is Deadeye Cannon glitched?

Because the description says that it's a single rifled barrel engineered for precision deep space combat.

And then it's an augment for the Positron Ejector... A shotgun...

[static summit]

fixed thanks

[inner berry]

2 qustions:

Can you augment Corvette's for more technology slots?
What does upgrading the class do?

[harsh bear]

Yes and class upgrade is better stats and more slots you can get

[inner berry]

Does the corvette at C-class start out with max technology slots for its class? Aka: Do I need to upgrade it's class before I'm able to augment it?

[harsh bear]

No you can upgrade it right away

[inner berry]

Time to farm augmentations then

[alpine wing]

when i make a new corvette should i fully delete the interior on the old one first?

[acoustic salmon]

You can have multiple Corvettes.

[alpine wing]

but the first ones kinda... fugly

[gaunt harbor]

Sorry I suck at building but it’s my firstish design with the knowledge I’ve gathered. She’s gonna be designed for comfort then I will design something more exotic later

I’ll fix the mismatched pieces later and come up with something. I am hoping to build an X-wing design, but I don’t think I can comprehend how to do it atm

[raw wraith]

So the octagonal locker makes for an awesome railgun chamber

[alpine wing]

how do i know what modules to exchange to get the ones i want

[proud dune]

i love how the bar on my cruise ship is turning out

[late minnow]

My first corvette! Its not much but I love it

[acoustic salmon]

Cosmetics are low %, useful things are high %.

So weapons, landing bays, cockpits etc are good for trading. But wings, radiators, antenna are useless.

[alpine wing]

and whats the difference between the difference class interiors?

[sand vapor]

what item/piece is that? (octagonal locker)

[acoustic salmon]

Aesthetic and cargo size.

But once you've maxed out the cargo capacity from Habs and Walkways, it's just aesthetics.

[tawdry topaz]

do your connected windows do this?

[late minnow]

Update on my first corvette: Closed hatch while walking out and am now stuc

[acoustic salmon]

Either call in a different ship, use a teleporter, or just try and jump and activate the hatch from the outside (sometimes you can use things through walls if you're close enough.

[late minnow]

I edited it and it opened the hatch

]

[wraith quiver]

i really hope they give us a curved Hab/walkway for the fighter style cockpits

[late minnow]

Problem fixed

[icy kraken]

Question,

does the placement of the weapons on a corvette change where I see the lasers come from and such?

Like, can I SEE my guns firing?

[last mountain]

hmmm anyone figure what the Ceto-Class reactor links upo with on corvette dosent seem link other reactors or shields ??

[uneven mirage]

I wish. It's one of my top requests for corvettes. Along with merge-able hab and that 2x1 habs could be rotated 90 degrees. I'm sure some are on the to-do list but current bugs come first.

[last mountain]

looks and will change how some other things inside look like the storage and live walls

[tropic locust]

Can I save a corvette design without overriding my ship? I got an idea cooking that I want to workshop

[last mountain]

what do you mean by override ?

[tropic locust]

Can I just work on a design without editing what I already have?

[alpine wing]

gonna be flying around in a half finished ship until i get the parts i need smh

[runic bluff]

The first two weapon systems you place will be the only two that fire

[last mountain]

if ya have enough parts can make as many corvettes as ya want by selecting create new if ya need the parts from old ship im not so sure

[weak quiver]

Need help getting Modules.. I'm a newbe where can I find them?

[tropic locust]

Look for planets with Salvageable Scrap

[alpine wing]

salvagable scrap planets

you get random stuff you have to trade in for stuff you want if you dont get it while youre searchign

[last mountain]

can also get at end of derelict freighters and sometimes rare pirate drops or attack freighters cargo pods that just say cargo has a chance as well

[weak quiver]

OK thank you

[mossy cove]

did they patch out floating parts?

[icy kraken]

That's not what I asked. I'm asking, will where I place them change where I see the lasers actually fire from, and will it be visible from the cockpit.

[tepid badge]

It will change where they fire from only in third person view

[last mountain]

probaly onmly if you can see them from cockpit otherwise will need be in overhead view to see where shots coming from since all aim at crosshairs

[fallow cargo]

anyone else have the issue where the corvette spins out randomly after leaving atmosphere?

[last mountain]

sometimes but more when i enter or exit the space station anomaly or my freighter

[icy kraken]

Pain, ah well

[dark juniper]

Yes, this seems to be solved in experimental for me

[raw wraith]

It's a decorative piece. The furnitures tab.

[fallow cargo]

how long before experimental updates to main normally?

[dark juniper]

We never know

[tawdry topaz]

My connected hab dorway has disappeared, and replacing the hab is not fixing it.

[dark juniper]

we can only assume the next few days since it's been a short bit since a public update

[fallow cargo]

when i had this happen reloading save fixed it

[tawdry topaz]

Didnt work for me. Did you fully reset the game?

[fallow cargo]

i did not.

[eternal ice]

this is exactly the type of corvette ive been trying to build lol

[last mountain]

is it fully connected or is there maybe something between em ? sometimes can be 1 square off and not know depending whats around it

[fallow cargo]

i also think i read somewhere it's more likely to happen to certain habs but i can't find it now

[alpine wing]

damn i can only have 1 cockpit :(

[tawdry topaz]

Its fully connected. I have been decorating the inside since yesterday.

Just deleted all habs and replaced them, and now it works. But rip to my decorations.

Thankfully most of my work was on the floor above this one

[gaunt shale]

Does this look any good? I'm trying to go for the Admech-Autophage industrial style but it's my first looks+function bulid ever

Sorry for interrupting a convo btw

[idle dawn]

THE FLYING FOREST IS GONE, IT TURNED INTO A NORMAL STARSHIP, WHYYYYY I SPENT SO MUCH TIME ON IT

[alpine wing]

is there a way to remove walls between hab units or am i stuck with a lot of doorways i dont want

[wraith quiver]

people losing their Corvettes is scaring the hell out of me

[idle dawn]

WHY IS THIS HAPPENING, MY BABY IS DEAD 😭😭😭😭

[olive eagle]

How the hell do I use this vertical bay???

[wraith quiver]

im hoping they come up with a fix for this soon.

[fallow cargo]

can't remove walls, can remove doorways

[wraith quiver]

stairs

[alpine wing]

you can cover the doorways but i dont think theres a solution besides that

[idle dawn]

ill never sail with the flying forest again…all thats left is a picture of its memory…

[tawdry topaz]

What effects corvette SC slot placement?

[olive eagle]

Nevermind I got it

[fallow cargo]

SC?

[tawdry topaz]

super charged slots

[icy kraken]

psst,
I'd love to see y'alls takes on asteroid mining ships

[tough token]

hey, i added the necessary parts to my corvette and finalised it, was half way done. i can't find it in my ship list (only the one I already had) and the parts are gone. how can I access these? cheers

[gaunt shale]

As someone wiser than me said: "don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened"

[frail furnace]

is it safe to leave parts in the corvette workshop cache inventory?? i figured that was a designated storage for corvette parts so they're not eating up your regular storage/invo, but i keep getting a tooltip to "reclaim parts from unfinished corvette design" or something along those lines

[tardy spoke]

You know what the corvettes are missing? A scanner room

[fallow cargo]

i get that all the time too, but no parts have disappeared from my cache afaik

[gaunt shale]

Agreed

[frail furnace]

ok cool. then i'll continue using it to store my parts for now, thank you!!

[tawdry topaz]

I created 3 corvettes in the same station, so it appears to be just randomized?

[tough token]

hey guys, sorry but just seem to have lost like 40 parts, anyone have an idea? thanks

[tawdry topaz]

Is the strat to just keep creating a minimal corvette, upgrading to S and rerolling until you get one with ideal slots?

[tough token]

maybe theres an extra storage for it somewhere?

[tawdry topaz]

Theres a cache storage next to the build terminal

[gaunt harbor]

So can I make this into a hallway piece? I used something called the Ally joint.

[tough token]

hey, yeah that hasn't changed at all

same parts I had in therre

[tawdry topaz]

oh, idk then.

[alpine wing]

i think the joints are hallways pieces without hallways so you can connect stuff without extra roooms

[olive eagle]

How can I increase my corvettes class?

[gaunt harbor]

I mean relay joint

[fiery trellis]

back of the space station there's a ship upgrade thing

under the eye looking thing

[gaunt harbor]

I see I can use the titan hallway

[olive eagle]

Why are them so expensive

Is it worth it?

10k nanites

[fiery trellis]

idk

it costs that much to upgrade anything

[tough token]

pretty sure it's just erased all of my parts

love to see it, NMS not learning from their classic mistake of releasing an unfinished game (as cool as this update is)

[alpine wing]

what happens if i jump out

[dark juniper]

You float in space

[alpine wing]

ohh i see

thats fun

if youre in multiplayer can you fly from your ship to someone elses?

[dark juniper]

Yes, you can

[olive eagle]

What yall think?

[olive eagle]

Yes

Even in the middle of the space

[ruby pendant]

What should I add to it?

[alpine wing]

thats cool as hell and i want one but idk where to start

[modest rapids]

@fiery trellis Can you post some photos of your Corvette in nms please. It looks cool & I struggle with wings like that in the ship builder. I miss the ship builder on starfield but both need reworks

[olive eagle]

Just, start building

[alpine wing]

i need more parts :(

[olive eagle]

Take some inspirations

Star wars, muscle cars, jets

[olive eagle]

Yeah ive been grinding a bit for parts too

[fiery trellis]

I don’t have any other photos and I didn't use wings

the vert stabs are a single part

[alpine wing]

anythihng you can rotate and attach under the wings to look like missles?

[ruby pendant]

Damn thats not a bad idea. Torpedos would actually work. Appreciate the idea 💡. Gonna add those now

[eternal ice]

thing is sick

[stray viper]

these are like half the stats of a personal ship

spose it makes up for in other things tho

this is the best i can get out of one

[brazen robin]

Tried to recreate the Quinjet from winter soldier, not perfect, but it's mine

[olive eagle]

Appreciate

[olive eagle]

The fuck

3000LY?

Is that S Class?

[alpine wing]

surely Manoeuvrability is a typo right

[stray viper]

its S and basically min maxed

[olive eagle]

Wait I didnt even notice that lmao

[olive eagle]

You only spent nanites to upgrade its class, right?

[modest rapids]

Oh ok. Oh those right derp

[stray viper]

think so, and the upgrade storage is the one that cost crazy cred

[olive eagle]

Yeah its absurd, 110mil for the multitool

[eternal ice]

i wish i was half as able to make a ship lol

[olive eagle]

Just start building one

I dont know shit

[alpine wing]

go spend 8 hours finding parts and then start xD

[olive eagle]

I just put pieces together and expected them to look good

[olive eagle]

Yeah this too

Not 8 hours

[alpine wing]

i spent an hour or so and was able to make almost a ship

[stray viper]

i was thinking it goes well into the billions

[olive eagle]

Some 2 hours is enough

This was ~30 minutes

[alpine wing]

i tried to make a helicarrier but its... missing some things

[olive eagle]

My ship was full too

[olive eagle]

The front is, I dont know, barebones, you know?

I really loved the concept though

[stray viper]

mine looks like a lopsided mess but it has 3x all the stuff i need

[alpine wing]

yea i need parts, didnt have anything i could trade for what i need so i paused production to go get more xD

[alpine wing]

the ceilings in these feel really low but maybe i needa shrink my character

[scarlet frost]

Can you use teleporters?

[alpine wing]

bro made a pyramid xD

[eternal ice]

windows in the front next to cockpit?

[stray viper]

i wish they let us remove interior walls to make it open space

[dark juniper]

Short-Range Teleporters are currently broken or non-functional inside of corvettes

[scarlet frost]

Damn

[lofty dome]

could you make the Zephit from Agents of Shield and send me the costruction guide?

[alpine wing]

this?

[olive eagle]

Btw, do you know how to install the teleporters? So I can transfer stuff from distance

[lofty dome]

yes

if possible

[dark juniper]

Do you mean the Teleport Reciever starship tech?

[olive eagle]

Yeah yeah, I couldnt install it on my corvette

Only on my ship

[dark juniper]

Oh, well I'm not sure what should be stopping you because I can

[alpine wing]

im assuming cargo link is just decoration?

[tawdry topaz]

Is it possible?

[rapid skiff]

Anyone notice the corvette stats being funky? There are times where adding better engines make the maneuverability go down(not over the limit) despite showing higher number bonuses.
As example, I'm curious as to why the supercharged dynamo shows higher stats than the arcadia heavy, but the mobility is the same.

[dark juniper]

You could install it on another starship, then store it and reinstall it on the corvette

[alpine wing]

i could try but i really needa farm parts for a while lol

[dark juniper]

But this is my corvette's inventory, I can install one here

[tulip thistle]

Are corvettes not on the Nintendo Switch version of the game? I cannot find the corvette builder. There are no teleporter to the left in space stations,

[olive eagle]

I see...

[olive eagle]

What about to the right

[lofty dome]

its fine when you build it could you make a video and send me the link to it so i can see how its builded

[dark juniper]

I believe the stats are random, but within the same ranges for all of the thrusters

[alpine wing]

i can do my best, i got work in a couple hours

[dark juniper]

It's like comparing regular upgrade modules of the same class

[alpine wing]

this person might be a better help tho since they already made a jet

[dark juniper]

Not an easy way to manipulate that randomness ime, and idc as long as it's an upgrade

[tulip thistle]

No, nothing. I’m going to see if my game needs updating or something.

[rapid skiff]

Hmm, random? Or bugged? There are times where I swap out an engine for a better one, and the stats go down

[dark juniper]

Random, and I believe there are no "better ones" is what I'm saying

despite the classes shown

[rapid skiff]

Huh, then why do they post numbers in the first place?

[dark juniper]

Because the numbers are just randomized for each one you glue on

[fallow cargo]

maybe this is already known, but i noticed that the random corvette spinning bug happened when i made my corvette 7 blocks wide. reduced to 5 blocks wide and it hasn't happened since.

[tulip thistle]

Odd, my software is up to date but no corvette station

[dark juniper]

kinda like how installing upgrade modules works

[rugged jolt]

is there any way to remove corvette upgrade modules without removing the part completely. So that I can swap it with a different upgrade but keep the visuals?

[alpine wing]

read the update notes maybe theres a note there or something

[rapid skiff]

Yeah... i still gont get that either... 😕

[still basalt]

is there a a sideways hull or some sort of linkage for this?

[dark juniper]

Sometimes by finnicking with those parts in the corvette edit mode, you can force some parts to be prioritized before others for that

[alpine wing]

you can use decorative modules but theyre mostly slopes

[stray viper]

ive seen them disappear in the ship menu but thats more scary than something i was looking for

[still basalt]

so theres no sideways version of a walkway or hab?

[alpine wing]

theres 1 long 1 wide and 2 long 1 wide but you cant rotate em

[still basalt]

hmm

[rugged jolt]

Thats so clunky and annoying though :(

[fallow cargo]

it's a week old feature lol

[rugged jolt]

okay?

[stray viper]

thats just rng from 1000s of seeds

[rapid skiff]

Indeed. Every time I try to make something aesthetic, the stats seem abysmal, even if the design "seems" efficient. But making box ships with a few fins placed strategically are 10%+ "better" stat wise.
Just trying to find a nice balance, and the inconsistent ever-changing numbers are driving me crazy.

[stray viper]

oh i replied to wrong msg, was meant for @rapid skiff

[modest rapids]

Id make that into a portable hover farm

[hollow cape]

Can you upgrade any corvette to s class? Or do you need certain modules first

[rapid skiff]

any

[still basalt]

wish all the decorative parts were purchaseable instead of having to trade

[hollow cape]

Sweet

[dark juniper]

They count as any other starship, so yes

[rapid skiff]

I have yet to see a corvette above c at base crafting

[alpine wing]

i want the anti grav landing gear and maybe make it thicker in some spots, i think im blending designs together in my head cause i dont necessarily love it

[dark juniper]

They always begin at C-Class I believe

[modest rapids]

Think I ran across you in the anomaly lol

[eternal ice]

i used the base from Hero's video and built off of it.

[hollow cape]

And the cost to upgrade? Is it a lot

Thats nice

[eternal ice]

i love the railgun look minus how slim it is

[dark juniper]

On normal, it is 10,000 nanites for C to B, 25,000 for B to A, and 50,000 for A to S

so yes, a lot

[hollow cape]

Sheeeeee

[stray viper]

might of got mixed up with my traveller brethren

[hollow cape]

Wow ok time to grind 😅

[dark juniper]

!faq-nanites in #bot-spam has some tips on making nanites at a rate to make class upgrading make sense

[modest rapids]

That sounds nice I was gonna put windows around it

[hollow cape]

I have built curious dep run tho so should make that in couple days

[stray viper]

traveller-xxx is just what the game calls names it cant recognize

[tulip thistle]

Odd my Switch says it’s up to date but it’s version 5.7.5 or something like that

[dark juniper]

Nintendo Switch 1 & 2 have yet to recieve the Voyagers update, prolly due to Nintendo update approval

[alpine wing]

one thing thats annoying is that most parts can be rotate around but only some can be flipped vertically

[tulip thistle]

Thanks!

[eternal ice]

whats the difference in appearance/style between Panelled and seamless windows? they seem the same when placing

[dark juniper]

!nmsversions in #bot-spam show the most up-to-date version of every platform available
#nms-news-ticker will ping when each platform recieves an update, so turn on notifs for that or grab the Switch roles in #roles to get notified when switch finally gets updated

[ruby pendant]

Huh what i miss?

[alpine wing]

they were asking me to make a jet to help them out

youve already made a jet so you might be more help

[ruby pendant]

Is it possible to trade corvettes like regular ships?

[dark juniper]

Most likely not

[alpine wing]

honestly no clue but id assume not

[ruby pendant]

Well that sucks. Id have made and given one

[alpine wing]

i did get a "swap ship" option with my regular ship when making my first one but i think they just copied the ship gui from normal ones

[dark juniper]

I believe corvettes immediately disappear upon being exchanged to an NPC, at least ime

[dark juniper]

You are allowed to exchange a new ship with your existing ship, that is a regular feature

especially in the case of being full on starships

[modest rapids]

What if Corvettes could with tech move around in a deep ocean world

[hardy harbor]

Are we forced to have cockpit in front or ship like Startrek 23 century carrier is possible?

[eternal ice]

so corvette takes up one of your ship slots?

i thought it was its own thing

[dark juniper]

You may place the cockpit anywhere on a corvette as long as it faces forward

[ruby pendant]

U can put ships into archive so u can have more then 8 ships

[dark juniper]

And as long as there is a way to enter the cockpit through a hab and an entrance (either any accessway or a ladder which opens a hole on the roof)

[dark juniper]

You may, though you cannot place corvettes into your Starship Archive

and the regular maximum for starships is 12, plus the 18 that can be stored in the Starship Archive

[hardy harbor]

we need corvette plans feature

like.. saved setup

[vital cypress]

I seriously don't understand how corvette parts work.

I move a shield generator to an adjacent spot; maneuverability drops 50 points. I move it back; I don't get those points back. I'm torn between Phase Beam and Photon Cannon mounts.

[upbeat sorrel]

it seems like jumping to a new system dumps the contents of your corvette's refiners

[dark juniper]

Yes, do not trust refiners to not do so when unloading and reloading them, which includes that

[hardy harbor]

in 3d editor? changing block can cause it be moved on the part grid. That's actually big problem as we aren't able to edit both at same time

stats are based on grid setup

so you moved it, it lost adjacency bonus by shuffling parts, and it doesn't redo that back

[vestal light]

yeah, i learned that too yesterday, im trying my best to avoid warping and summoning while there's contents in. kinda the same thing for freighters

[alpine wing]

can i scan from my corvette to find the salvage spots if im flying across the surface?

[languid pollen]

around 85k nanites ifirc

[hardy harbor]

And breaks them also..

[vital cypress]

That's what it is -- an adjacency bonus?

[hardy harbor]

But that's true to normal refiners too.

[vestal light]

True true! But just in case, perhaps try reloading a save. I had a single random incident that the contents were back.

[hardy harbor]

Yeah, losing connection may drop ship agility by alot

[languid pollen]

Yea autopilot

[vital cypress]

I think it's all back to normal...?

Is 250.7 good?

[hardy harbor]

I had weird incident where my content was gone, instead there was 9k tainted metal O.o

[languid pollen]

Lmao i just lost 1k nanites cuase of this

[languid pollen]

The refiner glitch is no taboo my friend

No need to deny it

[vital cypress]

POV: 10 minutes of grinding mold.

[glacial fjord]

Are there any System where i can find more salvage Spots?

[languid pollen]

Nah just did one of those buildings where u find the green eggs

[vital cypress]

You just need to find a planet that has Salvagable Scrap when you scan it.

[languid pollen]

Still as a new-ish player, 1k nanites is a lot

[languid pollen]

Salvage scrap + explosive rounds = profit

[vital cypress]

Once you find runaway mold, you'll be drowning in nanites.

Set up a base and just teleport between it and the space station.

[languid pollen]

Where do u find that

ive been doing outlaw station runs for nanites

[hardy harbor]

depends on stage.. mine after 4th randevous:

[hardy harbor]

rput it prbably someoneelse wasdoing it in "prallel" ship and it leaked

[vital cypress]

You can find them on any planet (I think). It'll show up as a three-star symbol that says "Curious Deposit" in your Analysis Visor. You get 400-500+ mold per one you mine, and they can be refined into nanites.

[hardy harbor]

just in solo game they are invisible >.<

[alpine wing]

isnt it 20 mold per nanite or something?

[vital cypress]

It's a 5:1 ratio (five mold for one nanite); but if you find a good deposit and force respawn them by teleporting too and from that farm, you could make thousands of nanites.

Most of the 47,000 I have is because of that method.

[alpine wing]

i love running 1200u between each salvage container

[sly sparrow]

Recolored my corvette, tho the name 'golden crusader' doesnt seem so fitting now

[junior rose]

how do you get more technology slots?

[olive eagle]

Battle Crusader

[sly sparrow]

Hmm yeah im still thinking

[hardy harbor]

it's "storage" upgrades

[sly sparrow]

Tho the recolor looks better, thats for sur

[junior rose]

oooh okay o:

[inner berry]

Why can you build things that require power into the frigate if you can't give it power?

[hardy harbor]

Blue trileaf thingy you can get from missions

Yelloware for freighter, orange - multitool?

[sly sparrow]

just tped out of my corvette man

[alpine wing]

reload save?

[sly sparrow]

No i can call it back

[hardy harbor]

summon it back

[sly sparrow]

Cant even chill on my couch 😭

[alpine wing]

can i use parts in the corvette storage or does it have to be in my inv

[olive eagle]

Yes

No need to keep them with you

Just put in the storage

You can also put Ship>Storage

[rose hatch]

Wonder why we can't flip this part

[hardy harbor]

I'm afraid I have a guess why we keep falling out of stations and ships. Devs never panned for this andour charcter moves in complex world locally, not world moving around them. THat always causes such problems

[olive eagle]

Upside down?

[rose hatch]

Yeah the opposite way

[prisma matrix]

xenoblade fans gonna like this one :D

[rose hatch]

Am working on a new build my first one was just a temp niw i am trying to go hard and it ain't fully easy lol

[hardy harbor]

what are these boosters?

[wraith quiver]

theyre the landing pad thrusters

[hardy harbor]

there was old TV show with similar ones..

which pretty much inspired whole STarfield

[wraith quiver]

starfield? DA OPPS?

jkjk

[rose hatch]

Does anyone have any tips and ideas on what i should build so far my build is like this but still working on it

[hardy harbor]

ok, they had bulkier ones, one you have actually closer to "oops" design 😛

[hybrid atlas]

i just wana be allowed to board from the side

[rose hatch]

If only they can be turned around

[hardy harbor]

or build saucer byspinning all partsfour ways

[hybrid atlas]

it would be so cool to have a side boarding ship

[lofty summit]

anyone got a spare ship storage augmentation?

[flint plover]

hang on, are the engine trails of those landing gear engines straight now?

[sharp plinth]

is it ok?

[fervent pilot]

Lookin fire to me homie 👌

[rose hatch]

What do yous think ?

[alpine wing]

im curious how many floors you have and how you did the nose xD

[rose hatch]

Thanks am trying my best theres a serton shape I want but I am not sure if it can be done

[flint plover]

this guy was able to do it #no-mans-sky message

[rose hatch]

What how

[hybrid atlas]

if i had another engine cover this would look kinda cool

[rose hatch]

Its obviously he glitches it

[hybrid atlas]

ngl i dont wana do any building glitches cause i'm horribly fearful of what'll happen if something breaks

[flint plover]

they found a glitch where habs would snap to freeplaced interior modules. Doing that allows for habs at any angle if i'm not mistaking

[proven bramble]

@deft orbit how did you get a shovel?

[flint plover]

fair enough

[hybrid atlas]

especially if i transfer this to my permadeath save

[rose hatch]

Thats cool

[proven bramble]

what does that mean

[deft orbit]

its in the building menu

[drifting zinc]

trying to make a corvette with a very large interior room

[proven bramble]

oh one of the decorations?

[deft orbit]

yes

[proven bramble]

ah damn still gotta unlock all those

[drifting zinc]

reckon i could fit a restaurant in here

[hybrid atlas]

ll\il baby corvette

[languid knot]

unsure if i cooked or not, what do you guys think?

[hybrid atlas]

that would be awesome ngl

[flint plover]

does that work with the gravity and all?

[drifting zinc]

yes

[deft orbit]

im dealing with such precision making a shovel my crosshair that the rumble of ships taking off in the stations knocks it off-centre

[prisma matrix]

they appear straight when the pulse engine is active

[flint plover]

ooh gotcha

[flint plover]

gotta love it

this game needs a better building system imo

[hardy harbor]

never saw tht round part in center. IS that reactor or just attachment?

[flint plover]

like in planet coaster, where you can move around items with a gizmo

[drifting zinc]

radar dome

clipped half a tile down

[languid knot]

imo its not the system its the parts

[hybrid atlas]

if only i could rotate this too lol

[languid knot]

theres always a part you need/want but cant get

AND THE ROTATION

you find a part that would look cool somewhere but you cant put it there

#nms-showcase-corvettes is where to show off your corvette »

[flint plover]

exactly. Better tools would be able to precision place everything anywhere

[hardy harbor]

ah, eah, did same to shdeflectos, they kind of look cool while poking halfway

[untold sandal]

this dont seem right

[hardy harbor]

And not manypeople pay attention to bottom of ship..and it looks like lego. So parts are a little wonky

[flint plover]

come to think of it, there must be a mod for that 🤔 People have built like perfect faces and highly accurate...idk whatever structures. They must have used mods that changed the build mode into some sort of editor building CAD program

[hardy harbor]

for bases? they build in blender. there is a mod for Blender on Nexus

[flint plover]

really!? damn that's exacly what im talking about!

[hardy harbor]

with corvette..probably somethign similar, injecting projectors at correct spots

Tbh I'm traumatized by Blender 3.0 interface change so that's not mine 😛

[pseudo charm]

is that the new trail?

[flint plover]

i never got into it. Tried it once, then went back to my fav building game. But knowing this, i might get back to blender

[hybrid atlas]

lowkey wish we could have floor windows

it would be so cool

[exotic pendant]

does mine look cool?

[hybrid atlas]

yes

it feels fast too

[flint plover]

yeah that's cool

[hybrid atlas]

like i would race with that

[exotic pendant]

bet

lol

[prisma matrix]

Yeah, the ships I based it on didn’t really have a trail originally but I wanted to give it something and rainbow wouldn’t have looked right lol

[hardy harbor]

our hubs are kinda small compared to game-not-to-be-named, there wouldn't be much space.kind awish we could use front and back walls for stuff, not just sides

[exotic pendant]

the top was better before but the STUPID complexity limit sucks

[pseudo charm]

looks FANTASTIC

[hybrid atlas]

im thinking maybe we could have options like, two lines down the middle that are just glass

[exotic pendant]

guys dont you think that they should remove the walls between the hulls

[prisma matrix]

“…say that again”

[quiet vale]

Absolutely yes

[hybrid atlas]

that should 100% be an option

[flint plover]

yep

[pseudo charm]

I said.. ::enunchiates slowly:: it looks.. fan..tas.. tic 🙂

[hybrid atlas]

i would love to have the ability to edit the walls between hubs, actually

including floors so we can have very open spaces

[hardy harbor]

hmm.. might be problematic. Maybe new 2x2 hub?

[terse stump]

Saw this on Reddit who is getting in?

[exotic pendant]

ME

[hybrid atlas]

or a tall hub maybe?

[random nova]

Hello everyone. Can i share with you my first corvette?

[exotic pendant]

yeah

[hybrid atlas]

👍

[prisma matrix]

Yes but only if it’s two habs of a same type, like if it’s thunderbird and ambassador I wouldn’t mind the doorways

[exotic pendant]

yes ofc

[hardy harbor]

wider stairs , please

[hybrid atlas]

flying mansion build

[hybrid atlas]

WHOA

[exotic pendant]

nice bro

[flint plover]

cool stuff

[hybrid atlas]

dude this is sick

[random nova]

thank you

[exotic pendant]

it looks Amazing

[hardy harbor]

that's how my first SF ship looked..

[open tartan]

first corvette lmao

[hardy harbor]

I hated to build vertically thre becuase ladders

[exotic pendant]

Sick

[ancient anchor]

Is there a way to get around this “cannot build too far from base” issue I keep running into?

[open tartan]

looks a little goofy but its good for collecting more scrap

[hardy harbor]

tywm HG for not using your ladders in ship,lol

[exotic pendant]

guys there is this guy on yt who makes fantastic build

i recreated one

[hardy harbor]

calamari destroyer

[ancient anchor]

Oh boy another one

[random nova]

this is cool!

[hardy harbor]

stuff four radar domes in ther if that's possible and you get interdictor 😛

[alpine wing]

i need so many more parts than i thought smh

[exotic pendant]

eh

it looks cool ig

[flint plover]

star wars and star trek builds were bound to come in masses 😄

[exotic pendant]

They look cool though

[flint plover]

true

[hardy harbor]

leave it that way. You have the only brace-drill shaped ship

[alpine wing]

D:

[flint plover]

lol

[ancient anchor]

Gotta be like the 300th star destroyer Ive seen lol

[exotic pendant]

a small yt made this... it looks sick

[hardy harbor]

Constellation? IS that COnstellation?

[ancient anchor]

Anyone know about this?

[orchid orchid]

if i add more reactors instead of 1,do i get more far when traveling in galaxies?

[flint plover]

for land bases or corvettes?

[exotic pendant]

yes

[ancient anchor]

Corvettes

[orchid orchid]

great, ill replace a joint with a reactor then

[ancient anchor]

When I try to build some base parts in them it shows that

[orchid orchid]

i luv my explorer ship

[flint plover]

hmm then i dont know if it's possible

[ancient anchor]

I NEED to figure out how to put the industrial crane on mine lol

[orchid orchid]

get closer to the cockpit

[olive eagle]

What in the lord is this 😭

[ancient anchor]

I uh

[orchid orchid]

wth

[ancient anchor]

Maybe those are supposed to be those big mag lev thingies

[orchid orchid]

i want a freaking big circle orbiting my corvette, how do i smt like that?

oh maybe i know, the only problem is aligning it

[crimson wigeon]

thats 2 corvettes now that have randomly bugged out when on a planet not desopawning when selecting normal starship and have since deleted themselves

[rugged jolt]

idek if this is possible but it would be a cool design
