[exotic spruce]

that sucks Cerauno

[olive valve]

I just put the parts I had down at the time I might make a second and really try to replicate something or just make something nicer but it does it’s job

[agile wave]

I submitted the report. I'll miss Argonaut's Fortress.

[olive valve]

I couldn’t think of what to name it so I asked my friend to give me a name

[shadow heron]

lol i play with all the parts turned on so i dont worry about grinding the parts

[olive valve]

Do you want to play sometime

[olive valve]

I got mine in about 30 minutes because I came across a planet with salvageable scrap so I got all but one part from that

[uneven mirage]

I'd never gotten that until literally 2 minutes ago. It started spinning and I thought "oh, so that's what they've been talking about"

[agile wave]

If you corvette goes invisible, DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT switch to another starship or it WILL fully vanish from existence.

[exotic spruce]

yeah, I've heard conflicting reports its decals / furnature inside the ship, to decorations outside of the ship causing it. I don't know if anyone has nailed it down yet or not - I haven't tried troubleshooting it on my end as I started a new game after completing the expedition and I'm just enjoying the shipbuilding

[dark juniper]

For me, the spinning out issue was fixed in experimental, hopefully that will be true for all instances of that issue

[agile wave]

My settlement also vanished when the bug appeared, but the settlement was fixed by going to another settlement.

[exotic spruce]

Preston Garvey strikes again

[uneven mirage]

I'm finding the interiors pretty tight. I've gotten too used to the wide open spaces you can make in freighters so all the rooms feel small. I hope HG makes the habs merge-able. Also, not being able to put modules on the front or back, just the sides, of habs is annoying.

[agile wave]

My settlement needed my help...

I came here just to warn people about the vanishing corvette issue.

[simple elbow]

another settlement needs your help, here I'll mark it on your map

im sorry it was right there i had to

[agile wave]

Annoyed power armor noises

[uneven mirage]

after 10 of those "ahh, they'll be fine"

[exotic spruce]

lol

[agile wave]

So... he does genuinely run out of settlements after a while btw.

[sharp sentinel]

Very specific but landing gear having to be at the 2nd layer. Trying to build a observation floor at the bottom of my corvette but you can’t see anything because the views obstructed by loads of structural blocks supporting the legs

[uneven mirage]

that would be nice, especially since those landing gears can extend a LONG way down.

[sharp sentinel]

Yeah exactly

[open bolt]

So....
Anyone else have all their pieces of their corvette disappear in the tech inventory? Like I built one, have reactors and other upgrades that occupy the tech slots....but it all disappeared now, only leaving the core items (hyperdrive, proton cannon, pulse drive, ect) and the upgrades I put in. Sans like 3 pieces

[agile wave]

Reload save

[tacit cape]

my walkways are all sealled shut

i cant access the ship at all

[agile wave]

If the whole ship vanishes, try to get to a space station without switching starships and try to edit it. I never got to try that unfortunately.

[uneven mirage]

Looking at the experimental branch and reading this makes me laugh

Fixed an issue that could cause a corvette to fly off when outside of the ship.

[open bolt]

Ok cool that worked, but they are all randomly placed now...after I spent easily 20 minutes organizing them.
Is this gonna be a common issue? Lol

[agile wave]

It happens a lot.

[open bolt]

....Soooooooooooo adjasentsy bonus be damned? Lol

[agile wave]

I have one free open spot to I could organize it everytime

Had*

[still basalt]

best parts to trade for other part?

like throwaway parts thats easy to come by

[pallid bramble]

Has anyone found ballast tank or any other hull connectors? I haven't found any since the update. Iv spent days digging up gold salvage crates as well as derelict missions

Starting to think they don't exist lol

[bronze shoal]

hi

[dusty sigil]

When you teleport, does everything in your Corvette refiner delete?

all my condenced carbon i was making is gone

[subtle prawn]

Hahaha, gee willickers, thank you sooooo much HG... I sure love the expedition, where I'm forced to build a corvette that can't even land on the planet that the expedition requires me to land on in order to continue, because yes.

[uneven mirage]

I think I just read that's fixed in experimental, so should be pushed out sometime in the next few days?

[still basalt]

thoughts?

[dusky thicket]

Maybe I’m going to wait a little before trying NMS again… seems like the feature I’d be coming back for is a little too buggy atm.

[golden tundra]

Hey all,
First time playing NMS, only 60h in, all I wanted was a Class S ship, I ended with a container full, ~80% in one day, of corvette parts and a Class A ship 😆
I am loving this game, I need to continue my corvette parts farming ( I didn't know it would turned out to be a farming), it is missing some parts I think.
I need to start putting things together.... slowly.

[jagged sigil]

Not bad at all. I haven't yet used those wing thrusters you've got there.

[tacit cape]

what do the cargo racks do?

[blazing spoke]

Same thing as the base storage

[dark juniper]

They allow you to access your storage container inventories I believe

[exotic spruce]

There, just have to decide what side looks best left / right (since I'm not a asymmetrical ship liker)

(why no, never seen this movie you call ALIENS before, why do you ask?)

[sharp sentinel]

That looks good. I love the dome pieces aswell

[sharp sentinel]

Looks very smooth

[exotic spruce]

Agreed Argo; if there were more fiddly bits I may go crazy overboard but then I haven't gotten too crazy with using camp decorations for the outside of the ship outside of a few vine wrapped ships I "crashed" into the hull during the expedition (like those crazy people in Firefly/Serenity)

[sharp sentinel]

Hopefully they’ll add more parts at some point

[lofty summit]

what are those two items on the bottom right

they arent greyed out

[dark juniper]

There's no reason for them to be greyed out, storage containers support all items

[lofty summit]

the corvette storage? mine are greyed out tho.. and they are non-corvette items at that

[dark juniper]

One fun thing is that you can place all of your corvette parts in the Corvette Workshop Cache to save space! (object on the left)

[lethal flicker]

are there any ways to considerably improve maneuverability aside from reactors thrusters and wings?

[dark juniper]

Yes, regular items do not belong in the corvette workshop cache.

There isn't supposed to be any way without save editing to place non-corvette module items in there

[dark juniper]

I believe wings do not affect maneuverability at all, at least from my testing

[dark juniper]

Only thrusters and medusa reactors/cockpits, of which you can have 3 of each become technology

plus the pulse engine upgrade modules

[lofty summit]

thats not true. the items in my corvette storage are not from save editing. they were bugged in there, unless you're talking about the new player who also showcased their storage with non-greyed-out non-corvette items

[dark juniper]

The other player was showcasing their regular storage container, regular items are able to be placed in regular storage containers

whatever you experienced was not intended, I would advise making a bug report regarding it https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[lofty summit]

yup i made a bug report two days ago but no contact. just hoping it gets fixed as i could use the slots

[dark juniper]

it's weird how you can't extract illegal items from the cache too

they may just make it so that you can do that

Though they have 150 slots and there are only like 100 parts so far

[lethal flicker]

from my testing they add anywhere from .1-2
also from my testing, medusa and azalthine (i don’t know how to spell it) reactors add the same amount but without needing to be placed directly on a hab or support part (habs and supports subtract abt 10 maneuverability), and can be placed on eachother instead. the first 3 reactors add abt 10-30 maneuverability and then everyone after that has the above effects. i just discovered this like 10 minutes ago and am curious what else i can do to take it further

[dark juniper]

Hmm I wonder why they raised it /j

[dark juniper]

That would make a lot more sense, though it's interesting how invisible this is

[still basalt]

is there a way to glitch defensive systems without them showing on your ship? or not as much

not glitch but somehow exploit

[oak rock]

i really hope they add droppable bombs

[still basalt]

like this deflector shield looks silly

[short fable]

What I have been working on via my permadeath save

Its having issues flying tho

and I am trying to figure out why

[lethal flicker]

i believe you can place them on the edge of a hab and it will clip inside

[short fable]

I have had the inner hulls dissapear several times

[lethal flicker]

you can also clip it into some decoration i’ve done it before

[safe kraken]

this was the corvette i ended up with during the expedition, a small, sleek little plane

now, i have her older sister

[exotic spruce]

permadeath is too scary for me especially as many times as I got stuck in space station walls in the Expedition

[still basalt]

how can i clip it inside a edge of a hab?

[signal flare]

also found out to never install windows until after finishing the corvette

[short fable]

Gotta love parts sticking threw your walls as well XD

[lethal flicker]

there’s the outer edges and then the part that has the copper-y door shaped entrance part. for me i just hover my cursor over that coppery part and move around a little until i get the angle right and you will see a green dot for valid placement but no projected shield

[signal flare]

because installing them after the fact means you can go past the complexity limit

[signal flare]

cover them in hanging wires and stuff ;p

[exotic spruce]

interestin @signal flare !

[lethal flicker]

things might be different depending on the platform but i’ve had it work many times

[exotic spruce]

let's hang out on top of the reactor, I'm sure it's safe. Perfectly safe. And warm.

[lethal flicker]

table with very awkward seating

-# side effects may include

[pliant spade]

wtf my corvette has no modules anymore?

[dense bobcat]

To be fair
it's more like a train then a cargo ship

[exotic spruce]

one of those japanese sitting ont he floor tables, press a button and the rusty table pops up for you to toast your feet next to the fusion reactor.

[dense bobcat]

but I have to agree

[alpine wing]

offa work, time to fly around for 2 hours finding parts :(

[pliant spade]

wheres my parts bro

[short fable]

Yes that fills the space much better

[alpine wing]

scroll down in the tech?

[exotic spruce]

that rug really brings the room together, Lebowski.

[marsh ferry]

I wish we could make large open rooms in our corvette instead of just being corridors. I wanna make a space yacht

[marsh ferry]

Nice pun. Filling space

[pliant spade]

nothing there

just the normal modules, no corvette parts

[short fable]

Yea that just looks better

[wild wolf]

Is there anyway to get a better corvette class other than doing the regular upgrade?

[wild wolf]

what habitation module is that?

[short fable]

You gotta go to new planets and the parts have rarities

[fiery trellis]

is there a way to open and close doors while piloting

[lethal flicker]

are you using the right inventory?

[wild wolf]

so is it just based on rarest part?

[lethal flicker]

while piloting no but you can use autopilot

[short fable]

Its a trick add onto your corvette next to your base

[fiery trellis]

also why do my doors open after warp

[short fable]

I use ambassidor habs

[wild wolf]

oh so its a base wall on a corvette? neat

[lethal flicker]

idk they just do

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

[lethal flicker]

happens to me too

[wild wolf]

is this from the highest rarity part? or an average?

[lethal flicker]

the landing bay opens and all my thruster lights go off and then it sometimes goes right back if it’s having a good day

[short fable]

you can get s class parts yes

[wild wolf]

and that makes the ship s class? what are the benifits to that?

[short fable]

Just like s class ships

just overall better

[wild wolf]

any bonus tech storage? i am realizing that with big biulds its hard to have space for tech bonuses

[short fable]

Ever hab adds +1 storage but you don't really even need that just have like 3 or 4 storage modules on iit

thats plenty of space

[dark juniper]

Corvette parts do not have variable rarities

well each part may have different "classes" assigned to the tech they place, but those are meaningless and all of the same type are the same class I believe

[wild wolf]

i dont mean for items i mean for stuff like warp drive, engine and weapon upgrades

[dark juniper]

and they don't vary within the same part at all

None of them are S-Class

[dark juniper]

You can increase cargo and technology inventory space at any Starship Outfitting Terminal using either Storage Augmentations or tons of Units

[dark juniper]

The only way I believe to have a corvette higher than C-Class is to manually raise the class of an existing one at a Starship Outfitting Terminal using nanites

[short fable]

Yea you gotta upgrade your corvette to make it S class threw the Starship outfitting terminal

[alpine wing]

what yall think of my internal heating

[exotic spruce]

that is a comfy tanning bed

[tropic locust]

Hey, who was making all the Elite Dangerous ships earlier?

[rancid sedge]

Prometheus (my version)

[flat wyvern]

when you're modifying/adding parts, and trying to remove them... how do you see the name of the part you have selected?

[alpine wing]

click it, should be on the right

[flat wyvern]

like, how do I know what this is without memorizing what exactly each part looks like?

click what?

[alpine wing]

hope

click the part

itll only show it when the item is in placement mode

[exotic spruce]

I've been picking them up when I forget... a lot

[flat wyvern]

ah so I need to move it

thanks

[candid cargo]

I call it the Milano Mk. II, thoughts? Absolutely loving this update

[junior current]

Is this a good front profile?

[prisma matrix]

Came out decently well I’d say

[exotic spruce]

colors look amazing Smoked; Only you can tell if it feels right @junior current

[signal flare]

looks very industrial

[alpine wing]

whats this piece

[prisma matrix]

It’s called something light thruster, one of the side engine pieces

[wild wolf]

i dont recall how to get storage augmentations, how do i get them?

[dim osprey]

bruh did you take that screenshot on like a nokia or something why is it so small lol

salvaging ships, derelict freighters, completing missions

@wild wolf

[still basalt]

i hate when you remove windows and the game doesnt refund you silver properly

[short fable]

Think this will make me crash XD

[dark juniper]

Usually from salvaging starships, frigate expeditions, crashed freighters, explorer guild envoys at a high rank

[alpine wing]

ambassador sublight thruster??

[dark juniper]

That is the Ambassador Sublight Thruster, yes

[prisma matrix]

Yes that’ll be the one

I thought it was ambassador but I wasn’t 100% sure

The only part name I have memorized is azimuth reactor

[fathom vessel]

I tried searching on the discord for the answer but couldnt find it. If i have a filled storage on my corvette and want to change the module to like titan. if i remove the module with my sotrage will the storage items be deleted?

[tropic locust]

How many sides of the small walkway can you build on?

[dark juniper]

Storage Container contents are not tied to the base object used to access them, they are save and accessible from any other storage containers in other bases, including freighter bases and corvette interiors

[fathom vessel]

where does the storage go? it will show back up if i place it back down?

[alpine wing]

anyone know how this nose was accomplished?

[prisma matrix]

Just the storage module, the storage unit within it is shared with boxes on planetary/freighter bases

[fathom vessel]

wait but my corvette is my only storage

[dark juniper]

When you place the storage thing back down, you will be able to interact with it and see your storage again

[fathom vessel]

okay thanks

[prisma matrix]

Long triangular pieces placed underneath perhaps (I forget their name too)

[alpine wing]

yea its centered on the cockpit tho

it wont let me put 2 there

[prisma matrix]

I think they have to be placed where that hab is

[alpine wing]

yes but it wont lock to the other side of the hab so i can fit 2 on it

[short fable]

They have it behind attached to side peices

[still basalt]

which front should i go with?

[short fable]

Let me go make a new one to show you

[still basalt]

[patent fern]

Would there be a chance that hello games adds standalone turrets as a module for the corvettes? My friend is new to the game and wanted to operate one while I flew. I thought it was a cool idea.

[short fable]

these peices click

[still basalt]

hopefully they will release corvette Presets

[short fable]

and are buildng blocks

Thats what they used

how you get max stats?

actual ship parts or just modules?

[alpine wing]

whats the name of it victor?

[short fable]

I have s class modules on it

[alpine wing]

the side piece

[still basalt]

oh ok

[wild wolf]

cool! thanks for explaining it

[short fable]

Let me see if I have any extras

Swept castings

[alpine wing]

is it a place the casing then the aerofoil, then delete the casings or do i need 4 casings

[still basalt]

been designing this ship all day

[short fable]

Remember you can tightly pack peices to and overlap them to make hulls

You don't need your ship hub to always be out

[alpine wing]

can you attach the casting to a hub off to the side so i can see how it attaches, i still cant seem to do it

[still basalt]

that shit looks cool

where even is ur cockpit

[short fable]

When I make my ships I am always in 3rd person anyways so i put my stuff hidden

On the bottem inside is the cockpit

[still basalt]

so u fly in 3rd?

[short fable]

I fly 3rd person yes

My cockpit is covered XD

[jagged sigil]

We don't need windscreens to see where we're going!

That looks very cozy

[still basalt]

bruh

[short fable]

Only issues I have been having with it is the moving parts tend to glitch out

[still basalt]

do putting multiple reactors stack?

same reactors i mean

[short fable]

yes

Think after 3 tho the rest become cosmetic

same with guns

after 3 they become cosmetic

[jagged sigil]

Do the spinning reactors stop or something?

[neon ermine]

I believe it tells you in the item description whenever you’ve reached the maximum boost(s)

[alpine wing]

yea im not getting this victor

im struggling lol

[short fable]

Nah they have just be straight up deleting themselves after like a few warps

not sure why

also have had my habs just vanish as well but he

I don't mind rebuilding

[jagged sigil]

Whaaaat!? Thats crazy.

[short fable]

And don't even get me started on this shit

[jagged sigil]

Do you use glitches or anything to build?

[short fable]

Yes XD so I probably deserve it

I am at 98 out of 100 parts

[jagged sigil]

I have noticed a trend that glitch building causes problems

[acoustic nexus]

how tf am I supposed to install tech if my corvette is always full of parts

[short fable]

Overlaping parts cause problems

I think what it is

[jagged sigil]

A little overlap is OK

[short fable]

Yea the only glitch build I got to work, Is I was able to build a wall in it when I landed it at my base

Still flys fine

[ember agate]

Brooo what a wooden wall? It’s literally the only thing missing in my Milano ship to make it more like the movies

[alpine wing]

victor can you build a small model of the aerofoil thing, i cant get it

[short fable]

What difficulty are you on?

I can come give you parts

[alpine wing]

i got the parts, just dont know how to place em

[short fable]

e

flip upside down

then mirror

[alpine wing]

but it doesnt snap to the right spots

[short fable]

Let me start a new one to show you

[karmic lotus]

Im hard

i meant

Uh.

thats hard

mb..

[still basalt]

nice graphics, u using reshade?

[red wasp]

Nope just good angles on a Xbox

[signal flare]

the only 'glitch' building i do is adding windows after outfitting the corvette

[still basalt]

xbox???

wtf

[red wasp]

Yessir

Not even in graphics mode

I’m on performance mode

[still basalt]

aint no way

[red wasp]

This game is sexy bro

[karmic lotus]

Xbox is the holy grail of console graphics

[red wasp]

It just is

[still basalt]

bruh im on maxxed settings no upscaling

[red wasp]

This planet is also gorgeous and I was messing with the camera aprature and lens settings

[still basalt]

graphics are meh

[rocky ginkgo]

are all corvette weapon visuals blue? as in reflections and particles?

[still basalt]

or maybe im spoiled

[steep palm]

lol fr

[rocky ginkgo]

how is it so up from the ground?

[still basalt]

magnetic landing gear

[rocky ginkgo]

it lifts it more then the regular cuz i have mixed

kinda lower then yours or am i wrong?

[harsh lichen]

just prespective i think

[still basalt]

or maybe youre using regular landing gear

[rocky ginkgo]

yes

MIXED

[still basalt]

so the game might just base the height off that

[rocky ginkgo]

as i typed

[still basalt]

or it would look silly

um ok

[rocky ginkgo]

1 magnetic 1 normal with pads

magnetic lifts it higher?

[still basalt]

around the same tbh

[wild wolf]

my habitation modules have suddenly stopped showing up in my corvette inventory. Is that intentional?

[harsh lichen]

my current fighter style ship is going well. is longer then i wanted tho due to having to have a cab

[rocky ginkgo]

hmm ill switch and check

[dark juniper]

That is not intentional

[short fable]

So as you can see here you can build inward with the part

[alpine wing]

gotcha

[wild wolf]

so its probably a bad idea to fill the newly empty slots?

[short fable]

But basicly

you can build outwards without connections with the part

Maybe, if you don't have a fully unlocked tech inventory then it will add more slots for any tech it tries to add back later

if it's at max, then idk!

[alpine wing]

gotcha

wait so attaching techmodules before adding my ship parts allows for more space? as long as its not maxed?

[runic bluff]

Federal Corvette from Elite?

[golden tundra]

Another fun thing, I learned this yesterday while watching some builds.
It was driving me insane coz few more hours and I will have another container full.
It is unfortunate tho we cannot use the cache tho, you must load the parts into the exosuit but hey, better than having containers getting full left and right lmao

[harsh lichen]

anyone know if there is a way to remove the hab requirement? so i can make my ship way smaller

[slate cosmos]

didnt use any ships to make this, I just wanted to make a long ship and it just came out like haha

[runic bluff]

Tried my hand at making a front-heavy combat interdictor

[dark juniper]

Oh that is strange, I can use parts from the cache in both building and trading

[runic bluff]

The resemblance is kinda funny and neat

[lean horizon]

how would i unstuck myself from a cruiser

[slate cosmos]

haah thats hilarious

[golden tundra]

Wait, did it change?? The videos I watched said you cannot.
I will try it later.

[slate cosmos]

its hard to make unique ships when only few parts compliment each other 🙁

[dark juniper]

Those videos may have released before the 6.03 update, which now allows you to place parts into the cache manually for use in building and trading.

[runic bluff]

I forgot this isn't showcase

Sorry

[golden tundra]

Reload the restore point??
You might have to say goodbye to some progress tho

[slate cosmos]

dude people spam photos here all time

u fine

[lean horizon]

it was 8 hours ago...

[golden tundra]

Sweet, thank you for that.

[harsh lichen]

i cant wait for more corvette parts man...

[raw wraith]

Doesn't work. As soon as you lift off, the starship phases through your corvette launch pad.

[runic bluff]

My current setup's problem, the central Ceto-class generator blocks view in First person

[golden tundra]

Think outside of the square, I have watched some videos that how on Earth did that person thought about using that piece in that angle.
Most of the badass corvettes I saw, folks are not using "normal ship building" way.

[zealous owl]

Hold up, does the wall stay at your base or on your ship?

[raw wraith]

Where is it positioned?

[short fable]

Stays in my ship

and flys around with me

[runic bluff]

I'm in Normal Diff so parts are used as they come

[zealous owl]

I tried thay yesterday and couldnt get the piece to place. Tried wire glitch and adjacent and cache. How did you do it?

[raw wraith]

I mean an engine block in front of the windshield has never stopped hotrod enthusiasts before. Haha

[harsh lichen]

i would like if size mattered in corvettes tbh

[still basalt]

is there a reason why only 2 of my weapons are shooting?

on the left side

and middle

[runic bluff]

Only the first two weapons systems you place will ever fire.

[still basalt]

the right side weapon isnt shooting

[still basalt]

oh

what about the torpedo?

[raw wraith]

We have the same tastes in design a bit.

[runic bluff]

... you know what, I've never tried ONLY having the torpedo. I dunno.

[harsh lichen]

looks like a giant space railgun

(i would like more unique weapons)

[raw wraith]

Well, that's what it's meant to be.

Based it on the silhouette of Gradius.

[still basalt]

i tried switching to it but it seems theres no option

or atleast idk how to use it

[runic bluff]

I was really hoping the Deadeye would be a new Starship gun

[runic bluff]

It's an upgrade to the Cyclotron Ballista

Which is odd to me. Might be a placeholder until they get it functional?

[harsh lichen]

me to :/

[still basalt]

torpedos definitely do not function like the ballista i think

[harsh lichen]

legit just a shotgun

[raw wraith]

Nah, for some reason we're 9 years in and rocket pods have received no love.

[still basalt]

i was hoping to be able to lock on and shoot slow moving rockets

[runic bluff]

No I'm saying the torpedo's in the tech grid are placed adjacent to the Ballista and buff it

[still basalt]

oh in tech grid

odd

[golden tundra]

Hot take question: I some some beautiful corvette but there is no much if anything for combat.
Are folks building corvette just for fun or to actually replace their ship at some point ( my goal)

[still basalt]

im never going back

[runic bluff]

They do dish out a load of damage, even late game...

But I've always wondered why they have NO upgrades other than faster tube cooling

[raw wraith]

Both.

Really, it doesn't take much to be combat effective anyway.

[golden bear]

Well the corvettes purpose surpasses combat alone. Id say its main use is that its a mobile home/base

[raw wraith]

I feel like there should be maybe increased range or lock angle. If damage is way too high then focus on utilities.

[runic bluff]

My current combat platform is a Sentinel Interceptor with enough juice pumped into the Infraknife Accelerator to kill Dreadnoughts and Sentinel Capitals in seconds

Corvette is never gonna compete with that

[harsh lichen]

just use infra on the corvette

[runic bluff]

(All the SC slots are in a neat little square and they're all Infraknife)

[molten anvil]

As of now switch havent even receive the update yet, been 2 weeks already, not even sure if its gonna drop

[raw wraith]

Lucky roll on those SC positions.

[runic bluff]

DPS on Corvette Infra is 3 times less than my Sentinel Interceptor, but the latter is a really good roll

[harsh lichen]

what is the difference causing so much damage

[minor tendon]

So I thought I remember reading about hiding shield generators inside the same space as azimuth generators but I can't find that tip now, does anyone else know about this or am I misremembering it's existence?

[raw wraith]

Supercharge adjacency

[runic bluff]

Adjacency and Supercharge compound off one another

[golden bear]

To make combat in the corvettes feel any good, we need turret guns

[harsh lichen]

can prob do the same in corvettes no?

[harsh lichen]

they are def planned

[runic bluff]

I dunno if Corvette SC slots are fixed

[harsh lichen]

the titan cockpit has a fully modeled turret pod

[runic bluff]

Like the Exosuit

[still basalt]

so yea i have a torpedo in the front and i cant switch to it, i guess HG is gonna add torpedos in the future?

even tho combat is already easy

[golden tundra]

Yeah, that is how I am looking at it. I still wanna replace my Freighter with a Class S from the pirates which is another thing apart, but I am hopping to build a flying home base corvette to depend less on the Freighter and outposts.

For now, I am having to claim base so I can use the Minotaur which is the main reason I can get corvette parts so easily or fly low, I have found countless crashed freighter and exosuit pod upgrade just by flying low, exiting and entering the atmosphere also triggers the topology to change and time after time I have landed back looking at crashed freighter.

I am hoping I can somehow have the Minotaur base in my ship.
I do have the exosuit upgrade that allows me to call the Minotaur from anywhere but I need parts that I won't have access for now, I am 60h into the game.

[golden bear]

It just feels odd that your average capital ship sized corvette, scoots around like a small fighter ship xD

[still basalt]

how you get letters on the hull

[harsh lichen]

i hope they add alot of qol with turrets/making size matter a little

less maneuverability but more cargo/maybe tech slots based on size or smth

[golden bear]

Ye, thatd be sick.

[runic bluff]

Part of my Zenith Reactor is clipping into the cockpit

[brittle sorrel]

Does anyone have cool medium size vtol looking ships that I can copy/inspire from

[waxen beacon]

anyone know how i can shift my entire corvette back by 1 block, right now the front is just out of bounds so the room is unusable

[harsh lichen]

just wish alot of parts did stuff. like the decorative wings with propellers would be cool if it added in a bonus to planetary speed or smth

[waxen beacon]

either that or how i can place stuff out of the bounds

[marsh ferry]

Would be neato if the windows didnt clip into each other

[golden bear]

Pretty sure they gonna work on that

[marsh ferry]

Im sure. Wut I really want is to make large open rooms inside the corvette so I can make a space yacht

[alpine wing]

USS Goon reporting for duty

[golden bear]

Ye, manualy adding or removing walls would be cool.

[marsh ferry]

If it was like freighter base building, that would be very juicy

[cloud junco]

Is there a module that lets the corvette carry exocraft?

[harsh lichen]

no :/

[cloud junco]

😿

I found a landing bay module from a salvage chest
That's for normal ships, right? Or visitors?

[harsh lichen]

landing bay? you got a pic by chance

[finite nexus]

fire

[slow harbor]

Guys I think my Corvette might be cooked, I visited too many planets chasing the weekend mission on a corvette(it doesnt spawn for a corvette, a bug)

[finite nexus]

the light pillar is crazy

[acoustic nexus]

guys how do I invite my friends onto my corvette

[slow harbor]

be in the same game session, resummon corvette on a planet where they can see it/are near

boom, it exists for them

[short fable]

I think she turned out fine

[still basalt]

wheres the corvette

[finite nexus]

ooh

[slow harbor]

Under the glitch corruption somewhere

[still basalt]

hmm cant see it

[ripe wing]

when I scale items, I can't place it, how fix it?

[ripe wing]

on corvette

[still basalt]

shit....

wait nvm

u can call ur recov ship

[slow harbor]

yeah don't come near ladders when pulsing

[still basalt]

even stairs?

[slow harbor]

you get yoinked by cthulhu

[still basalt]

ah

[golden bear]

YEET

[slow harbor]

basically you start experiencing space physics and stay in place, while ship is going mach jesus

[still basalt]

thought i died

[runic bluff]

Did some rearranging to add more habspace. Any idea what to add here other than the cargo couplings? looks kinda dumb now that I have them there... Didn't wanna just leave the reactors out like that.

[slow harbor]

I really need to get around to glitch building tho, i want a functional ship that also objectively visually slaps before i commit to upgrading to S-class

[slow harbor]

radiator vent, small vent, maybe something non-editored like a carpet

Also petition to make cargo link functional as a cross-ship doorway

[slow harbor]

you also could glitch in some speedbird nacelles

[cobalt flume]

so can you not walk inside of habs that are merged in half spaces?

just curious because i have so many habs on this build but the whole front red line is double stacked merged vertically so i basically only really have like 2 hab spaces in this whole thing:

[short fable]

Finished the garden bedroom, I am happy with it but it does lag me soo bad if I hit a asteroid 🤣🤣🤣

[exotic spruce]

❤️

[golden bear]

Uh, you can connect vertialy build habs with ladders/stairs. If thats what youre asking

[short fable]

The only downside to the garden XD

Can't really tell from up top tho

[west spindle]

not the most creative but i kinda like this

[green valve]

Better . Sorry about grammar

[short fable]

How do you want it to be better

[green valve]

Im trying to add more decorations but I'm worried the ship is too basic even though my intent was to build a hauler/shuttel

[wicked sluice]

In the end, it's your design - just go with what inspires you

(:

[ruby cipher]

Corvette, Little Red Corvette 🔊 !

[zinc knoll]

So. Theoretical.

We can make a halo pelican. Could we with current parts, make a halo wars vampire?

Or phantom/spirit transport?

[slow harbor]

spirit is relatively easy, but the doors cant open to the side for now

[zinc knoll]

The vampire would be doable if some of the parts were more "slim" over bulky.

Like I stare at that, then back at NMS and go "W E H." Like a Condor or vulture might be doable.

UNSC design philosophy for warships is just make flying gun, make ship out of gun if you're talking early covenant war designs or insurrectionist colonies war time period.

For the pelican its just a hover ship anyway.

[graceful cape]

(Prototype)

Peak design or L

[finite nexus]

kinda peak idea

[zinc knoll]

Cthulhu vtaughn.

[green valve]

Looks about like a human design.

Opps

[zinc knoll]

No no thats not bad lol.

Its just more often then not all we make are "bricks" pers ay and attach wings, an engine and more to modify it easily lol.

[green valve]

I didn't know im. Not supposed to showcase corvette ls here

[zinc knoll]

You may have just gave us a hint of what if ever, we get living corvette parts this is what I expect.

[ember agate]

@royal vine
nah like this is what they mean (custom) i built it myself and the interior that u can walk around they not talking about the normal starships, these have modules and they act give them stats too

[royal vine]

ah alright

[ember agate]

imagine like (walking around inside the ship, while its on autopilot) cuz that sorta stuff is what this update brings along with just alot of customization (saw someone "ship" that looked like an actual island when it laned on water)

[steady raft]

Has anyone made the Rocinante yet? 🤔

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1nbe7ri/the_expanse_rocinante/
Well, there it is

[thin jacinth]

How ?

[tall wharf]

how small have yall made your corvettes?

[zinc knoll]

Small?

I was given 100 parts, I'm gonna use all 100.

[tall wharf]

i made one thats like a starship

[somber depot]

100 aint even enough for me dawg

most of mine got hollow sections inside

[zinc knoll]

SAME. However, I dislike wanting to brick my ship.

[somber depot]

i have to manually remove all windows and place them again after every edit lol

[zinc knoll]

I might try waiting for a complexity limit increase.

[waxen beacon]

anyone manage to setup a teleporter in their corvette?

[somber depot]

theres a mod that removes the limit but personally its kinda cheating so i dont use that lol

[steady raft]

I hope so, I hit the limit on mine the first time, so I made it again but smaller, and almost hit the limit again haha

[zinc knoll]

Since 100, I'm sure is stressful. Optimization of Corvettes further might allow them to increase the limit seeing as I can feel the duct tape, hamster, and the servers threatening to go on fire.

[somber depot]

i dont think it works right now

[slate flint]

There is a limit to parts? does that mean there is a limit to how many corvette you can have?

[zinc knoll]

100 Part build limit unless you got mods.

[waxen beacon]

tough i have to climb like 10 sets of stairs to get to my cockpit

[zinc knoll]

They don't.

[somber depot]

yeah the ODS has been down a couple times since the update went out lol

[zinc knoll]

I centralize my ladder and landing bay for a reason now lol.

[somber depot]

brother what kinda shape is ur ship lol

[waxen beacon]

let me show you

[zinc knoll]

Apparently not designed with ease of cockpit and landing bay access apparently, and I'm known to make mazes for bases and freighter bases lol.

[waxen beacon]

@somber depot

[zinc knoll]

Oh amber clad.

[waxen beacon]

its a straight stairwell doesnt take long to get to it but figured a teleporter would make it 100x quicker because stairs are buggy

paris-class

odst drop pod type thing too so i guess amber clad actually

[empty rain]

yoooo brother in arms of UNSC

[somber depot]

i just hate that theres no full width grand stairs, luxurious ship but dinky lil stepladders

[waxen beacon]

hell yeah

[somber depot]

dayum thats tuff

[waxen beacon]

t

thanks bro

[zinc knoll]

I think I made a MAC cannon on mine using the shield things as rails.

[waxen beacon]

i wish the deadeye cannon was actually a cannon and not a shotgun

then i could have an actual mac cannon

[zinc knoll]

Helps hide the ugly modules lol.

[somber depot]

are those thunderbird entrances on the sides?

[waxen beacon]

yeah

3 on both sides

[empty rain]

Imagine someone warps into a system and sees 5 UNSC ships like that launching from planet

[waxen beacon]

to simulate odst drop pods lol

[waxen beacon]

need to get a fleet together

[somber depot]

the smoke coming off looks tuff as hell

[waxen beacon]

let me take some pics inside

[empty rain]

When NMS wants to work for me and i got gamepass absolutely

[waxen beacon]

bet dude lmk

i met another dude who made a halcyon class pillar of autumn

[empty rain]

Ima send you a friend request tho

[empty rain]

helll yeahh

where about go full UNSC style

[empty rain]

If ydm

[waxen beacon]

of course dude

[zinc knoll]

I still need to make a condor.

Or an owl.

[waxen beacon]

odst ops room and mess hall

working on the medbay and engineering wing

[cunning torrent]

4th Corvette attempt so far and by far my best/favorite!

[red wasp]

Two opposing pics I took today

[waxen beacon]

thats sick

[red wasp]

Was doin a lot of planet hunting

Found some real gems

[cunning torrent]

I love how much space these things can have (this builds got the 100 part complexity limit). In this ship I have a whole floor just dedicated to plants, then I have a whole ByteBeat studio (love to make music), I have a med bay room, sleeping quarters room, crew hangout room and observatory, and a storage floor.

[red wasp]

Looks real good

[red wasp]

It’s cool how much u can really shove in there and still make it seemingly compact

[red wasp]

This ship is opposite of compact and I got it to like
2175 mobility lMAO

[cunning torrent]

Exactly! So awesome love this update...although it can be quite buggy at times but I am too excited about the update to care lol.

[red wasp]

Agreed bro

[somber depot]

how do you decorate an observatory? i have a spare room with windows on all sides and dont know what to do with it lol

[cunning torrent]

Love how tiny this thing looks in the photo despite this thing being literally about 100x my player's size.

[tall wharf]

vid of my tiny corvette and a pic of my ufo

[zinc knoll]

This be a warship.

[red wasp]

Yesssirrr

[zinc knoll]

Might steal that from you landing bay wise because mine is always at the bottom.

[red wasp]

I take it into sun orbit and I jump off, return w my smallest fighter, land on it, and then fly aback into space

Yeah the landing bay was crazy to get there I havnt seen anyone else do it yet

It’s super fun

It goes front and back

[zinc knoll]

Given, I blended UNSC design and helldivers super destroyer design.

Didn't want either tbh. Just wanted to mess with styles.

[cunning torrent]

Tmrw I will take screenshots of my interior. For the observatory, I just made it a sort of crew hangout area. So couches, a golden statue in the centre, some tables, mugs and plates on said tables, some growbeds and carpets.

[somber depot]

do you just jetpack up everytime u need to get in?

[red wasp]

Mm yah mine was mostly inspired by like real battleships and yamato and legend of galactic hero’s

[red wasp]

Yes

[cunning torrent]

Nothing crazy. Had to keep it simple to keep the glass observatory "feel" the priority.

[somber depot]

ah too bad i already have a separate crew lounge somewhere else, i dont think it will work on mine. good idea tho

[red wasp]

I love the ufo

[somber depot]

chad move

[red wasp]

Goated jet pack to get on my giant goated ship

[cunning torrent]

You could maybe make it a garden or somethin. Idk, i'd have to see the room to think of ideas lol!

[red wasp]

I like to stand on it and just watch the planets

Consoles, things that could look like dossiers/research papers and such.

When I think futuristic observatory deck, I think research computers, wires and papers scattered about.

[somber depot]

nah thats on me i made it way too big lol ive built like 4 storage rooms, an office room, a meeting room, crew quarters, crew lounge, mess hall, grow room, refiner room, captains room, command room and still have like 4 empty rooms

[zinc knoll]

Not that we can make the freighter completely useless with its scanner.

[somber depot]

already done lmaoo

[somber depot]

oh also a medbay

[waxen beacon]

Have you tried driving any exocraft onto the landing pad

Saw some dude somehow manage to mount a pilgrim on the underside of his corvette and I’m still confused on how he did it

But would be pretty sick if you could drive one up onto it

[zinc knoll]

Mods. Mostly.

Right now I'll just cope for Sentinel, pirate and living corvette parts.

[waxen beacon]

missing an armory and maybe like an engineering/reactor maintenance type room

[zinc knoll]

I don't need a landing craft.

[tall wharf]

more ufo, i love the way it flies. esp with the flight assist reduction

[somber depot]

good idea, i wanna have an armory but idk what these armor stands i saw are called, anyone knows?

[waxen beacon]

ohhh the autophage things

idk how you get them

my armory is just the gun racks and lockers and wall mounted storage boxes

and a counter with grenades and more guns

[somber depot]

please tell me its not from an expedition lol

[somber depot]

i see, will try moving things around tonight

[waxen beacon]

I don’t think it is but I’m not sure

Let me look it up and see if I can find it

[somber depot]

oh yea i dont have pics of the interior rn but the room with windows i was talking about is that part right below the cockpit

[somber depot]

would be awesome thanks

[waxen beacon]

Maybe like a briefing room type thing with that terrain hologram or the planet hologram on a light table

Could look pretty sick in there

[lament yoke]

The perfect planet for collecting Corvette modules? Paradise? No. An empty planet with no life 🤣

[somber depot]

ooh yea i see the vision

[tall wharf]

idk every paradise planet ive been too has more modules bunched together where the barren ones are far more spred out, that could also just be bad luck there on my part

[tall wharf]

that looks fukin awesome dude wth

[lament yoke]

Five at once. And that was my entire evening.

[somber depot]

thanks man! i love urs aswell

[tall wharf]

breh my system suck then cause wtf

[lament yoke]

Empty planet: no sentinels, no Storm, no nothing. Only hidden modules for me 🙂

[drifting zinc]

is there a way to make corvettes in the anomaly load faster

or at all

half of em are invisible

or clipping into each other

[dark juniper]

Not really, other than reporting it to hello games https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[cunning torrent]

Yeah mine is stupid big and the interior still needs work.

I have a storage FLOOR, a growbed/garden FLOOR, crew lounge room, crew sleeping quarters room, med bay room, captains quarters, and a whole ByteBeat studio lmao.

My exterior is exactly at the 100 part complexity limit.

So yeah I 100% understand lmao!

[somber depot]

wait this thing?

wth it looks so cute and tiny in that pic lmao

[ember radish]

anyone have advice on how to increase hyperdrive range on corvette?

[waxen beacon]

yeah idk dude I scoured the wiki and can’t find the name of it

I saw someone a few days ago mention how to get it I just can’t remember where smh

[zinc knoll]

Part adjacency bonus and Hyperdrive modules.

Well. Tech adjacency in the menu.

[hallow mural]

My new baby lol

[somber depot]

gotchu fam, apparently its a shell assembly station and u buy it at the anomaly

will check later

[somber depot]

looks like an f1 car lol

[hallow mural]

Lmfao I was like wait what but now that you pointed it out I can see it lmfao

[somber depot]

looks fire tho lmao hella unique dont change it

[waxen beacon]

Sweet need to get it

[inland narwhal]

nice one

[waxen beacon]

I have barely any decorations rn

[hallow mural]

Thanks man

[inland narwhal]

I have seen the tie fighter floating around and decided to give it a try

[hallow mural]

Thanks!

[hallow mural]

Nice one

Lol

[inland narwhal]

trying to find all those circle parts must have been grindy

[hallow mural]

Not if you find a rich salvage planet and farm parts from your ship took me a couple days but not too bad

[hybrid forge]

The Mantis Blade XVII

[inland narwhal]

is that rick sanchez?

[ancient falcon]

Hey gang just got the game and cant seem to place the default landing gears in a space station in that newish gamemode

[tranquil cipher]

well crap

[cunning torrent]

Yup. In actuality it’s about 100x my size. I’ll get better pics tomorrow. But yeah if you look at the cockpit there just imagine me being 3 times smaller than even just that. That’s how big it is. It’s 4 stories tall.

I love how tiny it looks in that pic though. Cracks me up

[ember radish]

does reactor affect that?

[zinc knoll]

In tech, 3 S modules next to each other or adjacent. In ship building, 3 reactors that if you read, will say what stays they give. You only need 3. The rest are cosmetic.

Reactors don't care where they are, just that they are on the corvette.

Tech, and reactors in the tech menu of the ship do care if they are next to each other to boost each other in a square shape area relatively.

This goes for every tech.

[hybrid forge]

Posting an image only, starts the conversation...

And that channel doesn't show for me in the list.

[indigo osprey]

how do i open the door from outside the ship

or do i just have to summon it

[inland narwhal]

summon it or use the teleport beam

[indigo osprey]

o

i can reach the button from outside

nvm

[lament osprey]

I'm super desperate guys sorry, does anyone have a ballast tank to trade, ill trade anything

[harsh bear]

Someone help, I’ve done a lot of building these things but this is something I have not encountered before 😪

Hab appears to be glitched/ larger than it is supposed to be 💀

Nevermind I fixed it lol some reason I didn’t realize while building it, it was bugged and the entire ship was just ginormous and I didn’t notice 🤣

[untold sandal]

man, bigger rooms would be kinda rad

[harsh bear]

yeah after i fixed it i forgot how tiny they really are

I did have an odd feeling everything was MUCH bigger than what it normally was 😂

[tribal radish]

Spent an hour trying to make this ship look ok, any suggestions?

[halcyon bough]

Looks pretty good to me - I would say having the ramp at the front is also my preferred position for it, but it's inconvenient in space stations 🙂

[inner berry]

Is the turret on top of the titan class cockpit just decoration?

[halcyon bough]

Yes, at the moment

(You never can tell with Hello what they're going to do lol)

[inner berry]

Shame

Good for me ig- Titan-class looks kinda shite-

[halcyon bough]

I'm not a fan, mainly because of that spiky bit on top where the non-functional turret is lol - and while the Ambassador cockpit has excellent visibility I don't like the design of that either

AND for me at least the ambassador modules in general are a bit buggy - side attachments work fine but if you join habs front to back they don't put in the bulkheads/doorways properly

[tribal radish]

It has a ramp at both ends. Bottom floor is just cargo.

[halcyon bough]

Nice!

[inner berry]

Honestly I've never tried it, so I can' tell 😂

[halcyon bough]

I swapped most of them out, since the inside didn't match the style of the outside - it's a lot more 'Falcon' now lol

[untold sandal]

god I hate that so much

I rly wanna use the ambassador parts but tough luck

[halcyon bough]

Leaves a hole in the floor if you attach a cockpit module to it too

[untold sandal]

also first window is hella buggy too

[inner berry]

We need corner blocks to push argonaut winglet connections into a full block again-

[golden fossil]

halp is there a chat on borked corvette expos? , I have one where I have doner all but phase 1 .2 and phase 3.7,, all the rest completed

[untold sandal]

yeah it just always missing the door frame no matter what u attach it to for me

[halcyon bough]

I had a curved window attached and if you looked through one bit of the window the sea disappeared lol

[inner berry]

So that it doesn't look like this-

[untold sandal]

yet I've seen vids of ppl not having this issue

so idk

[halcyon bough]

Hopefully fixed soon 🙂

[untold sandal]

fr, I wanna try build nostromo lookalike

[halcyon bough]

You need a bigger build area lol

[untold sandal]

its gon be nostromo jr

[halcyon bough]

😄

[inner berry]

Why does the Medusa tell you you can rotate it when you can't btw?-

It's annoying me that so many modules have rotation prompts without the ability to rotate them

[untold sandal]

I ask myself why cant I rotate many things

that I would like to rotate

😔

[inner berry]

I wanna put the medusa on the back of my ship god dammit TwT

Not the front-

[inner berry]

Too real

[halcyon bough]

I kinda wish you could rotate some of the 2 x 1 ramp shaped pieces so they point out sideways

[untold sandal]

also ngl not sure about the droopy ambassador cockpit too

cant build anything under it

[halcyon bough]

I'm with you there, which is a shame, because in VR it is really good that you can see out of the bottom of it

[inner berry]

Honestly idrc- I personally find it incredibly ugly either way-

[halcyon bough]

It's possible we may get more and better components in a future update

[inner berry]

But we need stuff to fix this ugly cut-off

[untold sandal]

one could hope

[inner berry]

I wanna keep my corvettes small but functional and not ugly as hell

[untold sandal]

I rly want like... an angular version of those sloped ones

[halcyon bough]

Hello are open to this stuff - plus I had a helluva lot of fun building my corvette AND playing the expedition 🙂

[untold sandal]

so u can "connect" situations like this

[inner berry]

Look at this wasted space I could use if we had corners 😭

That's 4, or 8 slots for rooms

[untold sandal]

oh yeah I don't think I spent as much time on any of my bases as I have spent on corvette

lmao

[knotty plinth]

What do I do about my terrible back side? I'd also appreciate advice on how to access my cockpit efficiently 🤣

[untold sandal]

the worst part

is when u go to anomaly and see someone have sick design that inspires u

lol

I don't actually build bases beyond a teleporter and power for it - they're bookmarks lol

[untold sandal]

nah I need that beautiful main base

[inner berry]

Honestly- I'd just say "make it longer"?- Idrk-

[golden bear]

Wing modules and slopes are good for that 👌

[halcyon bough]

Maybe when they allow us a proper corvette landing pad part 🙂

[inner berry]

Use what you have as the tip and elongate it

[untold sandal]

but I love it when I teleport to my base and my corvette is half edged into my base

[inner berry]

I think that'll be hard since corvette's can be super small, but also huge-

[harsh bear]

Wanted a cargo style cruiser, how’d I do?

[untold sandal]

well its obviously gotta be the max area pad, like stations

[knotty plinth]

I can't imagine any geometry other than flat that fits with my design

[untold sandal]

will be silly for smaller ones but what u gon do

[knotty plinth]

What do you have in mind?

[inner berry]

Cool, but #nms-showcase-corvettes

[halcyon bough]

I think they could if they just had a part that the corvette lands on - like a marker, and you could build a landing pad out of parts around it maybe?

[harsh bear]

Cool but, chat delay so that’s kinda annoying 😂

[inner berry]

Yeah, because it's a showcase, and not a "let's have a thorough discussion about every part of this design"

[knotty plinth]

Also if anyone has an idea for a better engine setup that'd be awesome

[golden bear]

Bit hard to explain x) but you can build nice, uh ...exhausts for your turbines with wings and slopes

[inner berry]

True that I suppose.

[harsh bear]

Maybe I wanted to? I was askin for opinions, move on it’s not that deep 🤣💀

[inner berry]

Yes nerd

[knotty plinth]

do you have a good reference photo? Sounds like a good idea

[inner berry]

Would like to say I don't like it, but I don't have anything against it really, which is surprising-

[golden bear]

Sadly im at work for another 4 hours :c but i could DM you aftet that maybe

[knotty plinth]

Bummer! Anything in star wars that looks like what you're talking about?

[halcyon bough]

I'm just not a fan of teleportation in general, but also I think it'd be cool to have a massive base with a massive landing pad on which you land your massive ship and then walk out of it to see your base before you in all it's glory 🙂

[golden bear]

I dont know xD

Ive got a few screens, but they barely show the back. But maybe it gives the idea @knotty plinth

[knotty plinth]

Ahhh I getcha. I was hoping to go for an arrowhead shape like this one

[inner berry]

Any idea what to place in here? I was thinking about moving back the reactors one notch, but I actually like how the turret it placed in the middle on the top so I don't wanna get rid of that, and adding another room up there feels wrong for some reason-

[golden bear]

Maybe you can replace 1 of the reactors ans fit the longer reactor in there 🤔 dont know its name

[inner berry]

The ceto?

[thin jacinth]

RESUMMON SHIP

[golden bear]

Perhaps xD

[harsh bear]

Thanks haha I figured it out shortly after lol wasn’t sure what was going on

[untold sandal]

I'd prolly move the reactor to it then cover the other one with the long slope or some such

but das me

[inner berry]

I mean it works- It just looks silly. I also feel like I have to replace the thrustsers- They look wrong now.

Wait a minute- I think I just cooked-

[golden bear]

Lethimcook

[inner berry]

I did cook god DAMMIT

🧑‍🍳

[golden bear]

Ye thats pretty slick

[untold sandal]

nice meal

[slate snow]

Try Arcadia blade ones for going into thrusters. They have a bit more detail

Oh, you hidden them.

[inner berry]

They feel kinda sharp

I get the vision tho

[slate snow]

Just one moment

[inner berry]

I tried the Stabilisers, they look better- Left is blade right is stabiliser

[inner berry]

Left is diffuser right is stabiliser.

I feel the left fits better mainly due to its coloring and shape

[slate snow]

Yours I feel is going to be much bigger than my "heavy bomber" ))

[inner berry]

7 length, 3 width, 4 height (2 if you take out the turret on top and the gears at the bottom

[slate snow]

Big boy ship :)

[white depot]

Hi! Was there a change to how corvette modules work? they don't show up in the technology slots for me

[golden bear]

Heavy bomber sounds very much like discovery freelancer x) (yes, i mention this game alot)

[inner berry]

It do be big

It's a shame about all the wasted space tho

We need like sloped cargo modules or smth.

[slate snow]

I meant for a size of the ship. if we assume normal ships are fighter, than my corvette would fit somewhere in that size category.

[inner berry]

I'd love to use the side for more rooms

[slate snow]

Alus's one is probably closer to real corvette

[inner berry]

And we 100% need unmirrored versions of the cockpits for 4 width corvettes that don't look goofy-

[slate snow]

I hate that if you place portable refiner into the ship it totally breaks Ambassador habs :/ Well any placeable technology for that matter

[harsh bear]

No photo dumping in here remember 😂😂😂

[spring trout]

is there a way to create a door from outside the corvette? like say I want to access a hab from thats connected to the top of the ship and i don't want stairs from inside

[inner berry]

God, I wish the Longshore Cowling had a 1-block variant- It'd be perfect to fit the Zenith reactor

[inner berry]

😂

The pain of adaptive design

[slate snow]

I mean that arches from the edges of the habs disappear and you have holes in the ship

[inner berry]

• I have nowhere to place my high-energy shield now

[spring trout]

like if i wanted to put holes/doors here

[slate snow]

clip it in :)

[inner berry]

this looks silly 😂

I wish you could free-place corvette parts

I'd place it just between the ceto and the fuel pod in the back

[golden bear]

Yea, tell em gunter

[inner berry]

Wait- I build my ship in a way where I can walk completely through it. I forgot you can just teleport 🤔

So much space I could use for reactors

[slate snow]

hiding shield emitters is an art form

[inner berry]

Just call it what it is. A massive pain 😂

Oh, how I wish BALLtm was a bit smaller, this would be so damn funny 🤣

[golden bear]

Cant wait to see how much goodies hellogames is gonna give us with this system c: so much potential

[spring trout]

is there a way to free camera build stuff on a corvette?

[inner berry]

Wait- You can clip stuff into the ceto reactor?- That's insane-

[slate snow]

you can do more than that. if 2 items are attached to 2 different hardpoints, but have to share space will be totally fine

[pliant spade]

dude i cljpped 3 reactors into a ceto

[inner berry]

Oh damn

[slate snow]

I.E. you can push top thruster into the bottom one

[inner berry]

😂

[slate snow]

all connected and working

[pliant spade]

I have 2 medusas, a Zenith, and a ceto all in a 2 block area

[inner berry]

I don't wanna go that far

I can see the ceto, so I wanna at least make it look decent

[harsh bear]

I got pretty good at clipping 💩 together 😂 once you figure it out, you can make some cool stuff work

[inner berry]

I mean- Clipping a medusa into a Ceto looks pretty decent

[slate snow]

that is impressive

[inner berry]

I just wish I had somewhere for the Zenith since I do like the hyperdrive range and efficiency

[harsh bear]

That one took me longer than I’d like to admit to get together

[pliant spade]

you can go incredibly far with the clipping, dont be afraid

[dusky thicket]

I just got the thunderbird landing thrusters are those good?

[inner berry]

Oh, ik ik- I just like having components exposed, so designing them to look good with clipping is a bit harder

[inner berry]

They're not any different from the Mag-field's so it's just design choice.

[slate snow]

I just wish they would allow to move the parts around in half the increments they currently do

[harsh bear]

Honestly it’s really just what you like. Yeah they give very slight differences in bonuses but landing gear really doesn’t matter which one you pick w these

[oblique spear]

How do you go in freighters

[pliant spade]

its somewhat just what you like

[harsh bear]

reactors and engines do make a good difference tho

[slate snow]

with teleport (the left button)

[oblique spear]

ah

[slate snow]

took me a while and an accident to get it right )))

[upper quartz]

Wayyty more parts should be rotatable

Or rotatable more

[spring trout]

whats max number of engines?

[harsh bear]

For real. If I could rotate the cowls and stuff like vertically that’d be dope

[slate snow]

Mission Radar is missing the cover part from the outside. I think Hello games need a lil bit more time polishing the corvettes still :)

[upper quartz]

I NEED a corvette part 2 update

[harsh bear]

and I hope they make the cockpits more streamlined to the habs

[slate snow]

I'm pretty sure that's coming. That is such an obvious avenue of improvement.

[upper quartz]

3 functional, otherwise as many as you want

[tawny beacon]

My v24 engine design

[solemn saffron]

Has anyone got spare/duped higher tier parts for the corvette? I came back for this update to build one but don’t have the time to grind atm

[spring trout]

thanks

[inner berry]

Most sane car engine designer

[slate snow]

so Expedition just forces you to experiment? :)

[dusky thicket]

My goal is to build Serenity

[tawny beacon]

Hunna you can go into creative for infinite parts then back to survival and you keep the ship

[slate snow]

The Firefly?

[upper quartz]

Creative mode ;)

[inner berry]

It's really easy. Nothing much of a grind. You can get a large amount of parts in a short time.

[dusky thicket]

The very same

[solemn saffron]

Oh really? Damn I haven’t played in so long 😅

[spring trout]

tried using sideways palettes as a railing

[harsh bear]

I’d definitely just do creative with how glitchy the parts are 😂

[solemn saffron]

Does that count for the higher tier parts you have to trade for?

That’s what I’m after

[tawny beacon]

Yes everything’s free in creative you get unlimited parts

[slate snow]

always loved that small ship, probably more than milenium falcon

[upper quartz]

Big brain! Why do we not have railing parts in game..

[harsh bear]

like deleting parts half the time just gets turned into a edible bone, and now your parts you just grinded for are gone

[spring trout]

theres barriers at least

but i wanted more wooden looking

[inner berry]

You know the salvageable scrap? The white icon with the WLAN symbol? That but gold is where you can find 4-6 parts per marker from what I've seen.

They have high-tier parts in them too

[fringe elm]

Question fellas. If I want to get combined supercharged slots, do I need to scrap and remake a ship, or save and upgrade to S to check then reload, repeat. ?

[upper quartz]

Yeah but those are like construction site barriers, can't exactly use them in other vibes

[harsh bear]

I used them on my battleship build, they look okay on it

[tawny beacon]

Kithir I’ve heard that save loading resets

Not sure thoufh

[fringe elm]

Hmm. Figured it was like S class freighter hunting ya know?

And holy f, max cap corvette is laggy lol

[solemn saffron]

Yeah ik I looked up how to get them and the video said the grind was pretty tedious 🙁

[fringe elm]

Cyclotron….your best friend.

Just point and click

[inner berry]

They're delusional- You have at least 1 golden marker every ~800u in my experience, and sometimes there's like... Three in a 400-600u radius.

[solemn saffron]

Unfortunately with life atm I have just a little bit of time and I wanted to spending it designing a ship, my fav thing to do is base building

I’ll have a look for those planets

[fringe elm]

You could switch to free crafting for the modules

[inner berry]

I got like 24 parts in an hour yesterday roughly

[harsh bear]

Just do creative, it’s not like it actually affects anything in this game lol atleast if you just use it to build a corvette

[sand coral]

Hi all , my corvette mission disappeared from my log. but i am on a planet with salvagable scrap. because i didnt complete the tutorial before it removed itself from my log , how do i scran / make a ppoint for the salvagable scrap ?

[upper quartz]

Yeah I've been building in creative

[fringe elm]

IMO, beware, difficulty/setting change will turn normal save to custom.

[inner berry]

Hold F to open your scanner. Golden Salvagble scrap marker are corvette modules

[solemn saffron]

I didn’t realise it was that easy haha thank you. I’m assuming actual S rank parts I’ll have to grind but this is good to customise 🙂

[upper quartz]

I got a full inventory of parts once and when I realized you can't even hold all the different parts at once I gave up on "legit" building lol

[fringe elm]

Oddly enough, no s class parts

[inner berry]

There's no S. Your corvette starts at C-tier and you gotta tier it up with nanites. At least that's how I've seen it every time I made a Corvette

[harsh bear]

Exactly same here 😂

[tawny beacon]

Sonicwolf you should be able to still collect parts by going to the gold wifi symbol and mining it then maybe going to the space station corvette terminal will let you build one

Not to mention some parts I had in my Inventory it still wouldn’t let me use so

[fringe elm]

FYI, if upgrading to S, set a restore point lol, save scum that bugger

[tawny beacon]

Dompf you can now store all your parts in the storage thing by the building computer and use those while youre building

[upper quartz]

Cargo box...

[sand coral]

im on controller , which scanner module ? the starndard ? the hot spot scanner? sorry if this is a silly question but vague answers have confused me in the passt

[fringe elm]

How? Thought it was only for deconstruction of corvettes

[upper quartz]

Does the cache have enough slots for all corvette parts?

[inner berry]

Normal scanner which you use for ressources, scanning minerals, fauna, etc.

[tawny beacon]

Standard yes

Yes it has enough slots

You can now put parts in

I am on experimental maybe it’s not out for all thoufh

[slate snow]

Corvete Workshop Storage is a bin for parts, at least now. you chuck everything into there and it doesn't show up in shops (no accidental sales) and you can build out of them

[fringe elm]

🥹 grinding parts for a 100/100 cap ship was painful

[remote crypt]

Live on 6.03, everyone but switch should be running that

[tawny beacon]

Nice thank you

[inner berry]

I wish you could save and copy designs so that you can build in creative to know what you want to build, list down the parts, get the parts, and then not have to rebuild the thing in survival 🥴

[sand coral]

Thanks can you give a description of what the logo looks like ? some is a leaf some look like a diamond etc

[tawny beacon]

It’s a gold wifi symbol

[inner berry]

The normal salvageable scrap but in gold

[tawny beacon]

This is a better description lol

[inner berry]

😂

Nah, yours brings it to the point

[slate snow]

I call it golden wifi icon

[inner berry]

I call it "Wifi crown"

[shell vapor]

guys, rate this one

[tawny beacon]

Speaking of data is there any plants that have more than others because it seems to me every planet has about the same amount give or take

[inner berry]

I don't think so? Just procedual generation likes bullying people sometimes.

[slate snow]

some planets have no life on them at all

[spring trout]

lightboxes make really good scaffolding

[tawny beacon]

Okay cool some things about this game you can just never be sure of lmao

[spring trout]

got me playing minecraft

[fringe elm]

Thoughts fellas? Feels like I’m missing something….but already capped 🤷

[slate snow]

noted xD

[tawny beacon]

Nice contour and shape bro looks good

[slate snow]

wish I could throw out photon cannon out of the airlock

[inner berry]

Okay, build a corvette, enough NMS for today. See y'all around.

[tawny beacon]

Real talk

[strange fiber]

Further refined one of my corvettes, i like how it looks now 🙂

[slate snow]

you need to play tetris more, a lot of your stuff is not connected :) I.E. Zenith reactors connected (near hyperdrive) will increase your jump length even more

[fringe elm]

It is oddly enough 😄 Part glitching

🤯

[spring trout]

wish i could build on top of these things

is there a feedback board where i can just spitball ideas

[slate snow]

I was speaking about module window, he misses a lot of stat boosts just from that

[fringe elm]

Oh, I haven’t finalized it yet so lmao

[dusky thicket]

Man they really gave you a way to find the parts you want AND make money from it. Wild. What a game.

[slate snow]

oh xD

[fringe elm]

Tbf, cooking is much better at $$

[spring trout]

what if a pity system where you can track a specific part and after a certain number of collections you get it guaranteed

[fringe elm]

cough Plasma Core

[dusky thicket]

Not a bad idea

[slate snow]

You can trade for any specific part on any station at a loss to the trader. Pity system would be extremely redundant.

[neon frost]

How? I would like to understand how I do this, I want to recreate the Millennium Falcon, so I already have the Ebony Hawk.

[analog olive]

Quick question:
I am at 100/100 with my corvette building limit but i noticed i can still place interior and base parts on it? Is there a limit for those things?

[patent trellis]

she is hideous but she is mine

[neon frost]

Can u put the link here? Tks budy
