nms-corvette-discussion

[primal flare]

me when i apply "yeah, engineers irl would do smth like this" and completely deviates from original idea

[raven rover]

still tryna figure out the tail

what do yall think

[scarlet mason]

The tail looks really good ngl

[raven rover]

does it fit with the overall design or does it look like shi

[scarlet mason]

It’s a bit out of place

But not too out of place

[hasty shale]

should be 12 regardless of player owns a freighter or not (freighter is only really needed for ship archiving, which afaik we cant archive corvettes)

[raven rover]

Yeah im still figuring it out

[primal flare]

i fw that tail

[raw wraith]

I'm personally not a fan of too many thrusters. But the tail itself looks pretty good.

[scarlet mason]

What if you remove the gun placements on the tail?

[raven rover]

Oh right, so by default a player can have 12 ships (not corvette) without a freighter right?

[raven rover]

Thanks

[unreal fossil]

Idk why that reminded me of a Guardian from Halo 5

[raven rover]

Oooh right, yeah

[raven rover]

The 2 thrusters?

[raven rover]

Probably because of the sticking out parts

[unreal fossil]

Definitely

[scarlet mason]

Yeah, thought those were turrets lol

Might make it blend in more

[candid oak]

how exactly do i add decorations to my ship? i open the menu but nothing is there

[raw wraith]

Good use of part rotation too

[raven rover]

i had em blended in before, but its in the way of the big thrusters

Lemme tweak it some more

[raven rover]

Thaaankss

[primal flare]

wait now that i look at it how did you make it rotate like that

i havent delve into the black magic in the editor

[raven rover]

@primal flare

may i enlighten you with the black magic

[primal flare]

WTF

i was joking with the black magic

that is indeed black magic

lmao

[median shard]

is that a full custom freigther?

[hasty shale]

fwiw, this should be fixed next public patch (on steam experimental teleporting in to a base will have the ship floating above, landing pad at the base or not

[raven rover]

its still a corvette

[primal flare]

just realized you can freely build with free craft settings

But its almost the size of a frigatw

[primal flare]

mfw been salvaging every bits and pieces

[hasty shale]

sorry for late reply, and yep

doesn't look like it

[median shard]

ye ik but still

[ember ocean]

Has anyone had a SDF Destroyer from COD infinite warfare yet?

[raven rover]

my megachonker

[rancid lichen]

how do i attach the short range teleporters with teleport cable in the corvette? i cant seem to attach the cable anywhere on the teleproteers

[olive kestrel]

Do yall like my corvette?

[quiet vale]

What's it look like from the front?

[zealous osprey]

Just had my corvette replaced with my friends in multiplayer. Was still like that in singleplayer

[tropic locust]

What do you guys think?

[olive kestrel]

Amazin!

[olive kestrel]

The little 2 wings at the front stick out in front of the cockpit

[random finch]

How do y'all get your parts?
Do you farm the crap out of the Salvageable Scrap or Buy/Trade em all?

Or is there another way I dont know about

[tropic locust]

Many hours drifting over the surface of a planet with Scrap

[random finch]

Ah okay

Is it worth having Multiple Corvettes?

[soft yoke]

I have 7

[random finch]

Have you different uses for different Corvettes? And if so, which ones?

[ornate ridge]

Does anyone know how to use the adjacent glitch to enlarge an object if it is not adjacent? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Yd8K9GZmr0 I don't understand how this guy is doing an enlarged version of the "asymmetrical sails" and the "offset sails". The only thing that is adjacent to something that is resizable is the "full sail"

[soft yoke]

I have a main one others where just to test different designs

[random finch]

Ah okay

Thanks!

Also, is it worth having a Freighter? Cuz ngl, looks very cool but idk what the usecase is for them

[raven rover]

1 is enough tbh if you want only the usefulness

[raven rover]

You NEED one

Its that good

[random finch]

Please elaborate

[raven rover]

Starship storage, so you can have 30 starships

Mobile base

Planetary probe, when you warp to a system

It can just scan all of the planets in that system

So you dont have to check 1 by 1

Can summon your exocrafts without the need of their bays

Storage, and A LOT of em

Also theres no downside of owning one tbh

First one is always free

[random finch]

How so?

I can only buy them

[raven rover]

When you defend em from a pirate attack

The captain will give it to you for free

Only the 1st time

[random finch]

I've not seen one on this character 😅

[raven rover]

Well, have you progressed the story?

[random finch]

Kinda not really

[raven rover]

Its tied to a quest but i forgot which one

[random finch]

Ah oke then I'll do the quests

[raven rover]

anyways do the story, its just a glorified tutorial tbh

And a good read if you like that kind of stuff

[random finch]

Yeah I actually did my first 10 hours... But accidentally deleted the save...

[raven rover]

Ooooooof

Big sad

[random finch]

Ye suppah stoopid

[candid oak]

what do i need to decorate my ship? i wanna add stuff inside but i cant figure out how

[raven rover]

exit the ship builder

Go in your ship on foot

Press Z(the build menu)

[candid oak]

ty!

[raven rover]

Np, have fun

[ornate ridge]

Are there any other resizable things that I haven't unlocked the blueprint to, which will allow me to apply the adjacent glitch to the other flags?

[solemn birch]

How come some of the modules i put on my corvette are missing pieces of wall?

[raven rover]

yeah common bug

try relogging

[solemn birch]

ah so just visual bug for now that will fix it self?

[spring glade]

how we lookin

[solemn birch]

first attempt at something decent. Went ok. Not perfect

[spring glade]

or this?

[steel herald]

i have question about it.. it is always B class on 1st encounter or it is depending on luck?

[lament abyss]

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

[raven rover]

Luck

You can just reject it

Its still free next time

[solemn birch]

I havent accepted a freighter yet. Waiting for the small chance of an S class before i do it

[raven rover]

This tbh

[abstract crow]

Can't wait to get home to finish my latest corvette design. Redesigned my previous favorite, and added elements I learned how to make from two other designs.

[fervent grove]

my corvette got sent to the shadow realm with me in it; after reloading save it appears to be spasming and clipping outside the skybox. has this happened to anyone else?

[solemn birch]

cant you just summon another ship and re summon it

[steel herald]

So, accepting the B is decent but can be much better.. ;d

[raven rover]

Yupp

[tardy sun]

This was my expedition corvette.

[fervent grove]

from inside?

[tardy sun]

Now, modified into this.

[solemn birch]

ahh a lil more difficult yeah

[fervent grove]

the entire area I'm in is an invalid position for building and summoning

[solemn birch]

im so sad i didnt know how the corvette expedition worked so the corvette i transfered had like 7 parts on it in total.. sohuld have put EVERYTHING on it

lost so many parts

[steel herald]

There is a way to get Living-Corvette?

[abstract crow]

You can put plants and stuff all over it.

[tardy sun]

Your impression about this thing? I want to hear that

[steel herald]

🤣 I mean, a livingship, like zerg/tyranids ships ;d

[abstract crow]

No. Mechanical with plants at best.

[urban nexus]

yep, nice guide I found for it

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/yv7r6v/my_personal_guide_to_completing_the_starbirth/

[steel herald]

I know about a living starship, and im in charge to get it but i ask about corvette type livingship :/

[urban nexus]

ah, sadly we don't have it yet, hopefully the encorprate that into the future tho

[steel herald]

I guess devs read it.. xD

[abstract crow]

That's pretty tame compared to some of the ones I've seen posted in #nms-showcase-corvettes

[signal flare]

oh god, imagine sentinel corvettes

[celest snow]

Are the medi pod and grow modules currently broken? The medi pod cant be interacted with and neither can the plant wall.

Are they just decor?

Wait, I finally figure out the living wall atleast. You have to build plants seperately.

Still cant get the medi pod to work though.

[spring glade]

how we lookin

[opal crown]

Sunsets are so beautiful

[ruby cave]

can i buy all the corvette pieces? or do i need to always search for them on salvages to get duplicates or new pieces?

[spring glade]

well if you only buy them... then it wont be impossible but highly unlikely that you can exchange for better aprts, salvaging will both get you better parts and allow you exchange better

[formal turret]

Yo these are some crazy nice shots

[frosty harbor]

hve you guys put save point in corvette and then it make your ship cargo looks like seperate?

[frigid moat]

I like the design with great views from the windows!

[shadow steppe]

why is it making me trade all 4 of them instead of just one?? bro ive been giving up stacks of items not even realizing its been doing that what the fuck i just grinded these for like 2 hours

[candid oak]

im trynna copy this build but i CANNOT find these parts (the circled ones), its infuriating me, anyone know?

[opal crown]

Photo mode is so cool in this game

[opal crown]

Thank you!

[opal crown]

There needs to be a way to separate them

[runic bluff]

Internal Cockpit?

[cursive lark]

I think that's the firebox fairing

[opal crown]

Yeah I tucked it away in the center of the build

[cursive lark]

You should fly in first person

[opal crown]

🤣

[runic bluff]

@opal crown
Cockpit went from canopy to reactor observation chamber

Lul

[candid oak]

it was! thank you holy shit thats been annoying the hell outta me

[raw wraith]

Mm... Had an idea... this should be doable, I think...

[blazing beacon]

Living wall works fine for me

[lime fractal]

You can decrease the number in the trade

[shadow steppe]

how

while ur fucking draggingggggggggg itttttttttttt brooooo

these fuck ass menus

[lime fractal]

Was confirming. When you select what you want to trade, but before you place it in one of the slots, you will see options to split or change stack size

Just like with moving stacks in storage

[shadow steppe]

i didnt know u could do that at all so i didnt even consider it an option, by far the weirdest way of splitting a stack ive ever encounteded

[rich canopy]

Hey idk if this question has been asked before but i just reset the atlas and my corvette was fully destroyed and when i want to repair it i cant bcs i cant Even call it or find it anywhere ? What do i have to do ?

[lime fractal]

Fully destroyed?

[rich canopy]

Like i have to repair all the parts on it and on my gun too

[lime fractal]

But you cannot find it. Its been awhile since I did the atlas stuff. You cannot find or summon it?

[runic bluff]

Smaller UNSC ships when they discovered only MAC's and nukes worked on Covenant warships

[kindred chasm]

Questions: Is there anyway to make a level of accessible Habs that are at the same level as the landing Gear instead of above it?

Alternatively, any way to make doors that are on the second level?

[rich canopy]

Oh wtf nvm idk why but now i can call it when im on the ground but i couldnt before but anyway thx for the help and sorry that i took a bit of ur Time for nothing 😭😭

[lime fractal]

No problem. The game is quite buggy right now

[rich canopy]

Ik i have a few textures bug when there are dialogues but anyway it’s not a big problem

[undone jasper]

do we have any idea when my landing fans are actually gonna light up on all 4 corners

[exotic egret]

Can you make circle type shaped on Corvettes? I wanted to make a flying saucer

[undone jasper]

they have big radar dishes you could probably finagle

[rotund zephyr]

Speedbird

[north hatch]

I was playing around with some ideas last night and discovered something

[exotic egret]

Finangle?

Can you elaborate? I'm not very familiar with building techniques

[north hatch]

Ik I'm probably not the first to do this but you can just have an open deck with a second airlock
https://medal.tv/games/no-mans-sky/clips/l4XlAdVQog1C-9tv8?invite=cr-MSxVQVAsMTI1NjY1MTI&v=23

It's a little janky

But it works

[undone jasper]

finagling something is just using it in a clever way for a different result than intended

[north hatch]

Finagle is an american slang term for making small, repeated adjustments to something until it works

[exotic egret]

Oh ok

[north hatch]

U typically hear it in the Midwest

[exotic egret]

I cant disengage the snap for a lot of Corvette parts though, so how does one manage that?

[north hatch]

if u find out tell me

[exotic egret]

Ok lol

[north hatch]

Gonna be recreating this in my permadeath save because it is so genuinely cool man

Idk what I'm gonna put on the deck but I'll figure it out when I get there

[narrow grove]

Omg space forklift hahahahaha I love it

[north hatch]

How'd you get grass like that?

[zinc ember]

is it normal
for my corvette refiner to stop working and delete everything in it when i warp? shit is annoying

[candid oak]

whilst trying to decorate the exterior of my corvette, putting a light for example, how would i offset it from the wall so it doesnt merge?

[tropic locust]

Is there a way to make the corvette turn faster? My boi is kinda clunky

[safe kraken]

this happens to me all the time, no fucking clue

[safe kraken]

increase maneuverability via pulse engine tech + medusa reactors

[raven rover]

Yep

Very annoying

[zinc ember]

glad i’m not the only one at least annoying as fuck

[tropic locust]

Question: since you can't remove corvette modules from the tech menu, is it even worth installing some of them?

[halcyon geyser]

I filed a zendesk bug report, but is anyone else losing their corvettes when planetside and you warp your freighter in for the first time? Another ship on my freighter becomes my default. I can call my corvette back down easy enough, but I was a little mad when it happened the first time.

[woeful whale]

where to report nms bug?

[fiery trellis]

dih

[rapid skiff]

I would like that, especially since i like building bunkers. dont want my ship to be dug 30m underground every time i come home via portal

[raven rover]

!hg

[lament abyss]

Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[rapid skiff]

i was hoping it would at least be "at level" because my portal was in my basement, but it spawns underground even after i moved it to my top level 😕

well, all ships really, not just the corvettes

[devout pumice]

I just spent the last 2 hrs trying to find a star wars droid gunship corvette build on reddit with no avail. Guess ill just build one myself. Alot of amazing builds out there tho. Especially the space stations, omg.

[tropic locust]

Can't wait to see the ship. People are getting real creative with the parts

[devout pumice]

It'll be a few days I think, I suck at building lol

[rapid skiff]

have you checked out corvette showcase? may be things there that arent on reddit. though they may be harder to find

[devout pumice]

Idk where the showcase is so I haven't seen it

[rapid skiff]

https://discord.com/channels/146101654981312513/1410859645433811055

under the vc channels

[devout pumice]

Ok, tysm. Ill definitely take a look.

[rapid skiff]

meh, i need to get more parts 😕

off to the grind i suppose

[mild stratus]

Finally took a decentish pic of my ship

[zenith gale]

Can’t get my damage potential any higher

[rapid skiff]

damage potential is... difficult. it IS possible, but you have to have multiple weapons almost fully kitted out

[copper cove]

@mild stratus looks pretty dope

[rapid skiff]

shot gun seems to have a lot more value than others, much like multitools

[zenith gale]

Idec about damage potential I just can’t get the modules to do the same damage as on my other ships

Maybe bc they’re sentinel ships and fighters

But the same positron ejector config does like a 5th of the damage as it would on a fighter

[rapid skiff]

i mean, those ships are essentially mobile turrets, DESIGNED to be fast and fk things up 😛

[zenith gale]

And it seems to be capped at 175 for my ship, any other configs or add ons don’t change the stat

[zenith gale]

Yeah but you’d think with how large the corvettes are they should be able to do more damage

[rapid skiff]

try, boarding and piloting the ship, that seems to change my values when im editing

[mild stratus]

There's also a bug with corvette stats atleast for me sometimes my corvette has 3k maneuverability other times it goes down to 2400

[rapid skiff]

i dont know if it adds the standard mod value or what

yeah

[zenith gale]

I think their caveat should be that they’re less maneuverable overall but faster in a line, have better shields and health, and do massive damage

[zenith gale]

I’ve seen that too

My ship goes from 4k to 3.5 with no mods edited or anything

[rapid skiff]

this is the highest ive been able to get mine

but thats also because my weapons are charged, not my engines or shields

[mild stratus]

I prefer having a faster ship considering space combat is meh in nms

[zenith gale]

Space combat is meh but not unavoidable

I had to help my frigate fight some sentinels and it took so much longer than it would in a fighter

[steel herald]

It is not mine, i just ss other ppl ship

[raven rover]

@hard fjord

if youre curious about the angled stuff

[zenith gale]

The corvettes also seem to not have much more health than regular shops

[rapid skiff]

i dont like having the super fast ships, i have trouble controlling them

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

[zenith gale]

Overall I think corvettes have quite a bit of work left to be done, they don’t seem to have too many benefits over just using a fighter and a freighter

[tropic locust]

Does the rocket launcher not get any special mods?

[zenith gale]

They have loads of cool gimmicks but besides that they’re not very well rounded, at least in my experience

[regal copper]

figured it out, yellow works great on this

[grand lion]

Iteration 4

[zenith gale]

I’ll spend some of my afternoon tinkering with things but idk

[regal copper]

now what should i fill it with

[tropic locust]

is that the ASP

[sick ember]

So what happens with stuff built inside my corvette when I move the habs around???

[grand lion]

The what?

[tropic locust]

Is looks like the ASP from Elite Dangerous

[mild stratus]

There actually pretty good the mission board module makes it so you don't have to go to the anomaly the refiner so you can do stuff on the go plus custom ships is what everyone wanted for ever

[grand lion]

I've never seen elite dangerous

[mild stratus]

I never do anything with freighters tbh

[hard fjord]

Shoot, sorry, I didn't get a notification for this, no idea why 😕
Will experiment on this and check the build guide from this morning!

[raven rover]

the tag was just edited meant to reply tagging you but accidentally edited the post instead

[hard fjord]

Oohh ok. 😂

[sick ember]

just the fact you can beam down to surface and not deal with landing/take off is enough for me to buy into the corvette model

[idle ore]

why do corvettes have teleporter and cables, if they cant be used 🤣

[sick ember]

What happens to stuff I built inside my corvette when I rearrange my habs???

[tame oar]

It seemed to delete the part and materials when I did it. I delete everything prior to messing with the ship itself just to be safe

[sick ember]

tnx good to know and why I asked cause was afraid of that

[mild stratus]

I can't 100%say but when I deleted windows stuff that was in the window part was still there so I would assume it's the same for habs

[sick ember]

why the down vote? cause what Aracnareaper said?

[idle ore]

"bad stuff happens" 😛

[regal copper]

i would like ideas if anyone has any

besides the obvious functional things, what do you friends have in your corvettes?

[small plaza]

You're getting there

[small plaza]

Is that really within the 100 complexity limit

[small plaza]

But doesn't damage potential stat on the overview you know, not matter? Look at your weapon's dps.

[regal copper]

absolutely not

[small plaza]

Ah

[regal copper]

that thing has to be like two, three hundred parts

i would hate to be a low spec player when i pull up in the anomaly

[small plaza]

I really should get that mod

Looks damn good tho

[regal copper]

100% recommend it, i think 100 parts is far too little

[modest ibex]

Are there any star wars builds?

[regal copper]

more than you could possibly count

[small plaza]

One thousand gorillion millennium falcons

And a couple Venators

[modest ibex]

In vanilla?

[modest ibex]

GIMME

[regal copper]

yes

probably a million variations of star destroyer, add a hundred thousand millenium falcons and a gorillion x wings

[grand lion]

If we have this, then definitely there's star wars

[modest ibex]

Any v wings or naboo fighters?

[modest ibex]

🤣

[small plaza]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8ZiP8eqfvmA?feature=share

[regal copper]

naboo ships are pretty hard to pull off

think i've seen v wings

[modest ibex]

I want clone stuff

[small plaza]

Based

[modest ibex]

Tryna make a milsim

[modest ibex]

Yeah based on stuff from the clone wars era

[small plaza]

Prequels were better than the og trilogy

[modest ibex]

🔥

[regal copper]

no.

attack of the clones is horrific

phantom menace & revenge of the sith are fine

[small plaza]

Og trilogy: boring, turkish soap opera in space
Prequels: Politics, "What about the droid attacks on the wookies?"

[modest ibex]

Respectfully, shut up. Lol

[regal copper]

but attack of the clones, heeeeeeeeeeeell no

[modest ibex]

Why?

[regal copper]

don't you dare defend attack of the clones

[idle ore]

i dont like copying other designs, feels cheap and just anbother xxx-ship... i love to desig myself

[regal copper]

padme & anakin scenes are horrible

[small plaza]

I don't like sand

[regal copper]

i HaTe SaNd

wait no

yeah

i don't like sand

[modest ibex]

Don't you ever say this to any hardcore star wars fan ever lol

[cerulean trout]

ok that hilarius

[regal copper]

it's coarse and rough and irritating

[regal copper]

i would rather watch rise of skywalker than attack of the clones

[small plaza]

coarse*

[modest ibex]

I can agree, it is the worst of the three but the movie is still good

[regal copper]

whoops

[small plaza]

Okay you foking wot

[regal copper]

yes. i said what i said

[modest ibex]

That's one step too far my guy

[regal copper]

to be fair i've seen RoS once when it came out, it may be worse than i remember

[small plaza]

Rogue One wasn't too bad. Probably the only good one in the entire Disney SW

[grand lion]

There's a lot of hilarious ones

[rapid skiff]

i would rather bleach my eyes than watch any of the disney made startards

[modest ibex]

It's a great movie but it's not star wars

[regal copper]

rogue one was pretty great, the disney+ series are hit or miss but some of them are good

[modest ibex]

The sequels are more like a different timeline

[regal copper]

also rogue one gave us the hardest vader scene OAT

[regal copper]

note: live action

[modest ibex]

Anyway back on topic can anyone link me tutorials for different star wars Corvettes?

[small plaza]

Is that the car from Pacific Drive?

[regal copper]

now HERE'S my star wars take. clone wars is the best star wars media there is, by far.

[small plaza]

I mean

[grand lion]

I think its the ecto one

[modest ibex]

You mean the TV show?

[small plaza]

We like the prequels, so it would be weird not to agree

[regal copper]

is there another?

[nimble stirrup]

I like NMS, personally

[regal copper]

we do too! hence why we're here

[modest ibex]

2008 or the other one

[regal copper]

2008 indeed

i have to admit that i haven't even watched the earlier one

[modest ibex]

That show is peak

[regal copper]

rare in the fact that it gets better as it goes on

[modest ibex]

Anyway

[small plaza]

There's a Clone Wars movie and The Clone Wars tv show

[modest ibex]

And just clone wars (minus the "the")

[rapid skiff]

so guys, this is the corvette channel, im sure there are other places to drone on about starwars 🙂

[small plaza]

He even used the fucking HR smile

at any rate, are there any other photon cannon mods? since i cant get rid of it, im trying to use it to its fullest

[small plaza]

You mean like, apart from the ones you can buy for nanites at space stations?

[rapid skiff]

yeah, you can only have 3 of those, which includes pirated versions. plus the "heat sink"

[small plaza]

You know, I didn't see those X classes

At all

[rapid skiff]

you can only get them from pirate missions

[small plaza]

Sentinel upgrades

[rapid skiff]

you can buy suspicious packages at pirate stations

[dark blade]

Those look like cowlings, Speedbird maybe?

[rapid skiff]

they have those for ships? i havent found any yet

[small plaza]

No I mean my eyes didn't register them being there in the pic

[small plaza]

Weren't there

[rapid skiff]

ah

[small plaza]

Let me log in

[rapid skiff]

ive found some for multitool and exosuit, so it wouldnt surprise me, i just havent found them yet

[spring glade]

not exactly what I wanted but its good, will keep editing as needed

[small plaza]

Decent actually

[rapid skiff]

i mean, theres a guy with a tommy the tank engine running around, you do you man 😛

[north hatch]

Wait how do you dupe them

[rapid skiff]

i guess i should go actually get a freighter huh... might help with a lot of things...

[rapid skiff]

not that i would condone it, but im guessing probably the refiner trick

[shadow steppe]

suddenly i regret the titan cockpit 😭

[pseudo charm]

all good ships are evolution! Thats Great so far captain!

[shadow steppe]

feels so visually croweded

[pseudo charm]

oh whys that?

[north hatch]

Listen I have a build I want to make and I'd rather not spend 2 hours digging to get the parts I need

[shadow steppe]

cant see much compared 2 previous is all

[pseudo charm]

oh yeah. a wee bit

[rapid skiff]

i wasn't bashing you or anything, but "i" wouldn't condone it

[candid oak]

anyone know what part this is?

[north hatch]

Ahhh ok roger that

[north hatch]

One of the structure parts, I think hardframe is what it's called?

[quiet spruce]

how do i stop my corvette landing in a stupid place when i warp to my base

[rapid skiff]

looks like the hull linkage

[north hatch]

Thats the one

[rapid skiff]

by flying there... sadly the random portal drops arent avoidable at the moment

they will try to sits where they fits, sadly they dont seem to recognize player structures when touching down

at least... not untiL AFTER you load in, which is annoying

[brazen kayak]

I don’t even land the corvette I just let it stay in the air

[candid oak]

it is indeed, thank you

[brazen kayak]

And I beam down

[rapid skiff]

im presuming they meant portaling back to base

[brazen kayak]

Oh yeah that makes sense

[rapid skiff]

i have a big basement, they stick my ship down there 90% of the time

sometimes i cant even get it out, i have to summon it

i have rechargers, so im not worried about the fuel, its just annoying

[regal copper]

any examples of people writing the name of their ship on the side? looking for inspiration on how to do it

[abstract crow]

Need some pin-up nose art for my ships.

[rapid skiff]

pretty sure there are number and letter decals in the interior build menu

[regal copper]

i don't think there's actual letters

only made up letters

numbers yes

[rapid skiff]

you use build camera, fly out of your ship, and paste them on the outside

[regal copper]

this been known

[ruby yacht]

any1 knows why i get this weird piece on the window every time i place one? it only appears on the side windows

[rapid skiff]

hmm well theres this guy...

[regal copper]

just a visual bug, doesn't actually show up on the interior

[ruby yacht]

it has to look like this? this is ugly af lol

[regal copper]

wait it actually shows up for you when you're walking on the inside of your ship?

[ruby yacht]

yeah

[regal copper]

ooookay

that's new to me

[ruby yacht]

damn

i mean the front one looks good

[sly sparrow]

Yo wash your windows man

That dirty as hell

[ruby yacht]

fr

man i really hope its not a mod issue

[sly sparrow]

What mods you got?

[ruby yacht]

only the no complexity limit

[regal copper]

i have only that + the lighting one as well so it's not that

[ruby yacht]

damn

fix it sean

[modest ibex]

Is it possible to land smaller ships (Corvette and/or non-corvette) on like a sort of landing pad and/or in a sort of hangars on Corvettes?

[candid oak]

and the forklift is done

[regal copper]

glorious

[fervent pilot]

You use mods or anything for that??

Dam that’s gnarly af ggs cuh

[pseudo charm]

I am having a derp moment. so the ORANGE in your ship stats means you are EXCEEDING what your potential is. not in the reverse where WHITE means you have not yet REACHED your potential.

this whole time I was thinkin I hadn't reached potential and yet I had been exceeding it!

[grand lion]

Similar to mine

[scenic bison]

Mc fucking scuse me that’s my damn corvette

@remote crypt

@final thistle

[grand lion]

Huh?

[scenic bison]

That is a zoomed in picture of my corvette

[hardy oracle]

How did you arrive at that conclusion? Because they're both made of corvette parts?

[grand lion]

[scenic bison]

Mettalic purple and yellow exact placements of parts

Exact lighting of the photo plus my lg tv on the bottom of the pic

Put them side by side

[hardy oracle]

It's not even a little bit similar. Unless you're counting the novel idea of putting a cockpit at the front of the ship as a similarity

[scenic bison]

Look at her picture then mine

They are the fucking exact same!

[calm tinsel]

What are you yappin about?

Let's discuss corvettes. Show off your builds. And please, abstain from drama. This George Orwell does not enjoy moderating drama on this server.

[abstract crow]

How about the corvettes, huh?

[calm tinsel]

Clutter feedback?

[hollow coral]

That's cool.

[hardy oracle]

I love the clutter! But I do want to point out that having round objects on the floor on any sort of vehicle is going to be really problematic if it moves around. I realise that's not a true concern in game but I do think such things should be taken into consideration when designing your ship. Put them in boxes!

[calm tinsel]

My farm beds and cargo bays are full of junk. All the habs and walkways use Thunderbird because it looks like a mess

[small plaza]

Insane

[calm tinsel]

Good idea. Kinda wish we had strapped down pallets of random stuff

The boxes hide too much and make it too clean, I want it to be hectic

Inspired by Star Wars

My actual cockpit is offset

[buoyant parcel]

How is this possible? i've tried to make the narcelles match the length of the habs+ cockpit, but i absolutely can't what gives !

[pliant wraith]

flip rockhopper small move half block

[hardy oracle]

I might borrow some inspiration from your back wall, that's pretty cool. Here's what I did with my cargo bay:

[calm tinsel]

Why is my camera mode so dark all of a sudden

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

[buoyant parcel]

Can you please elaborate?

[pliant wraith]

can you join voice?

basically you

Put down a hab
flip rockhopper small and put it half way on hab
move hab back
repeat

then place nacelle attatched to clipped hab and delete hab

[hardy oracle]

There are tricks you can use to move things half a tile. For example the propeller snaps weirdly to things after you flip it once and habs snap even more weirdly to a trim piece if you move things around.

[sharp beacon]

what do you think about my corvette?

[buoyant parcel]

omg, thanks so much, i got what you meant, that is greatly appreciated. ❤️

[buoyant parcel]

Also thanks bunches for the video.

[pliant wraith]

another trick as baeles said

Attatch trim to hab

delete hab
put hab back on DIFFERENT side of trim

[hardy oracle]

Thanks for elaborating, my description was way too brief. 🙂

[pliant wraith]

teamwork makes dreamwork

[hardy oracle]

I like the rear window, that's pretty cool! Seems a little bit unbalanced in terms of thrust perhaps? Those upper thrusters seem like they'd cause issues if physics were real

[hollow coral]

Have any glitches in the corvette?

.

[cursive lark]

But physics aren't real

[hollow coral]

Here's what I've been having...

[hardy oracle]

That's true, but I think ships look better if they are built with it in mind. Unbalanced is unbalanced, even if there's no gameplay effect

[cursive lark]

Yeah I've had this, only with this hab type though

[calm tinsel]

I had to use windows to ss this because the camera in the game is incredibly dark all of a sudden. You can see my offset cockpit here and some decals.
Any way to put these reactors in a better spot?

[hardy oracle]

Your ship is mostly habs so there aren't a lot of things you can push together. Maybe you could use the offset tricks to (partially?) hide your reactors beneath plating?

[hollow coral]

These are the titan class walkway

[calm tinsel]

It is a big boy, I wanted a lot of space for all cargo containers and living spaces

[lucid wraith]

Saw someone who made the bat ship (forgot the actual name) and wanted to see how well I could recreate it from one pic. Gonna delete it after, because it's not my design and don't want to steal someone else's idea. How well did I do? Mine is the spoiler pic.

[cursive lark]

Personally I like where they are

[lucid wraith]

I just noticed the auto gen name! 🤣

[calm tinsel]

Heres some of the decals on the exterior. No, 927 isn't inspired by anything, I just liked it as a number

[calm tinsel]

Really cool

[hardy oracle]

for example, this corvette has 3 zenith reactors and 2 medusa reactors, but you really only see the edges of the medusas since everything else is hidden under the shell. And it seems that adding hull parts like these actually improve ship agility rather than reduce it. Though I can't quite figure out why.

[hollow coral]

Yea I'm wondering how the bloody hell do you rank up the Corvette???

[calm tinsel]

Nanites

[hardy oracle]

Only way is to pay a lot of nanites at a space station.

[calm tinsel]

It's the same way you level up any ship

[hollow coral]

ah.

[scenic bison]

Turtle 🐢

[hardy oracle]

Here:

[small plaza]

🐞

[calm tinsel]

This is how dark my screenshots are

[hardy oracle]

Hah, yeah. It really feels like the color I pick sure makes it either look like a bug or a turtle!

[hardy oracle]

Maybe you're just in a dark system? They have wildy different light levels

[hollow coral]

Ty.

[calm tinsel]

It looks worse inside the anomoly

Literally pitch black, even with the suns overhead

[runic bluff]

@hollow coral
Yeah unfortunately, Corvettes are always created as C class and need to be ranked up using the Starship upgrade and salvage terminal. Gonna run you about 85,000 Nanites

(I think I forgot to turn off reply ping, my bad)

[gentle wasp]

great decal work, been trying it out myself although I hold very little confidence in getting the numbers in the perfect angle I want lol

[static perch]

Any website to see all the corvette pieces? like how they look, so i dont have to go just by thumbnail

[small plaza]

Is the GTAO setting off?

I had the same problem and it was that option

Just put it on Standard

[calm tinsel]

That fixed it, thanks

I usually disable a ton of those graphics things mostly cause idek what they do

[calm tinsel]

Don't look super close on the 7 at the raised gun platform

I just noticed it

[spare ether]

i ended up scraping that idea, but it wasnt working, i might have been doing it wrong that time, ended up with this @rapid skiff still a work in progress tho

[rapid skiff]

nice

so did you just build off center then?

[spare ether]

nah the needle still has that trick, the other side things i removed for these new ones

[rapid skiff]

cool, glad you figured it out

[flat juniper]

I have a question how do you invite other players to your Corvette every time people join they just slip out of my ship even with the door shut

[calm tinsel]

Are they part of your group?

[celest hill]

Is it normal for projectiles to not come from the torpedo launcher? Or do i need different guns. Cosmetically it's off putting

[flat juniper]

I think it has to do with what guns you put on your ship first

[hardy oracle]

The torpedo launchers are related to the cyclotron ballista, its projectiles should come out of them

[flat juniper]

No, but I thought you could invite people through some kind of computer on the Corvette

[wary vector]

I wish that instead of an access hatch, that we could just skip the door entirely and have a teleporter room that only lets us beam in and out of ships.

[celest hill]

They don't, projectiles from the ballista come out of my cockpit

[wraith quiver]

i still havent figured out an idea for what to do with the glitch

[flat juniper]

What glitch?

[tulip zealot]

There seems to be an invisible object blocking this doorway to my cockpit

[tepid sentinel]

Spacewalk while pulsing through space.

[sharp beacon]

guys why is my starship like this it is on the left???

[wraith quiver]

whatever peopole are doing to edit the rotation n whartnart

[wary vector]

I can confirm it doesnt

[wraith quiver]

yeah my weapons come out of everything tbh

rockets just kinda seem to appear from behind me ersumshit

[tulip zealot]

Apparently it was caused by the cargo interfaces on the lower floor

[wary vector]

Yeah everything just shoots out of every turret rn, except the torpedos for some reason.

Those are basically just decorative Neutron Cannon buff items

[wraith quiver]

bugs me more than it should tbh. i just only use photon cannon now.

[wary vector]

I wish I could just get rid of the photon cannon...

[flat juniper]

Yeah, they have a lot of bugs but it doesn’t bother me too much. It is a new update so with every game that has new updates DLC‘s all that stuff come new problems so just let them know and they’ll figure it out in patches and we as players just have to be patient

[wraith quiver]

Whyyyy??

[wary vector]

Waste of a slot and I always have to cycle through it when swapping from the infraknife to he cyclotron

Its a bad weapon too

It should feel bad

I hate it

[hardy oracle]

I'd like to get rid of it too. There's nothing wrong with photon cannons but I prefer using my phase beam and cyclotron ballista. The photon is too much of a generalist weapon for my liking

[wraith quiver]

OH yeah i never worry about any issues with this game tbh. Those Hello dudes deliver well

[wraith quiver]

Thats fair. cos thats why i like it so much

I honestly didnt know you couldnt go without it though thats weird.

[wary vector]

Afaik only Sentinel ships rn can go without one

At least that was the case at one point

[flat juniper]

No, I never worry about any issues with this game those hello dude deliver well yeah yeah at first it almost seemed like they didn’t know what they were doing, but they found their mojo and they have delivered ever since I love this game I can always put it down and come back through it at any time and still know where I have left off. That’s one awesome thing about this game that I love so I give a major shout out to hello games.

[hardy oracle]

You could wreck your ship a bunch of times until the photon cannon breaks and then not repair it. That should at least fix the weapon cycling issue. Alternatively it may be possible to get rid of it with save editing, but I'm not sure I want to mess with that

[wary vector]

... I might do that once the Corvette modules become more reliably permanent

[wraith quiver]

wish you didnt have to go down into the hangar of a freighter to beam into your corvette.

[wary vector]

I worry that I'd go through the trouble of doing that only to have my modules all reset and swap around the next day lol

[hardy oracle]

At least there's a direct path between the teleporters since last patch 🙂

[wraith quiver]

yeah glad they opened that wall lol

[wary vector]

If they just let us build a Corvette beaming room in our freighter base that would be ideal

[wraith quiver]

110%

[hardy oracle]

I'm even more greedy. I want a portal in my corvette!

[flat juniper]

Yeah, I kinda think that way too, but I guess they wanted it to seem like your ship is actually docked in the hanger because I think technically it is cause if you look carefully your ship kind of rotates as it lands

[wraith quiver]

i want a system scanner lol

[wraith quiver]

yehh i feel that

[wary vector]

I've been thinking about this, and I think it might just not work

What happens when you teleport somewhere from your Corvette? The ship is gonna come with you, so you can't teleport back to it now...

[hardy oracle]

Oh yeah, that's true. You're probably right. And I'm really not particularly needing it anyway. Corvettes are already plenty awesome.

[calm tinsel]

Imagine the paradox of warping you and your ship through a portal in your ship LOL

[hardy oracle]

Yeah, you're both right. 🙂

[flat juniper]

What do you mean by a system scanner because that’s what the danger scanner and economy scanner do

[abstract crow]

Well, you can't teleport to the portal on your corvette at the moment as you need a mod to even get one inside

[wary vector]

Like the planet scan room in freighter bases

[wraith quiver]

Planetary Probe** my bad

[flat juniper]

I don’t think I’ve used that I installed it, but I don’t notice a difference. What is it supposed to do?

[hardy oracle]

The probe is awesome! It's why I often explore with my freighter if I'm looking for a particular type of planet

[calm tinsel]

Question for corvette upgrade (Really starhsip upgrades in general) do I put the main part on a supercharge, or the boosting tech? i.e. pulse engin and thunderbird thrusters

engine*

[hardy oracle]

You don't have to point and scan with the probe. You get a full list and image of all planets with a single activation.

[wraith quiver]

use it lol it shows you planet details if youre hunting for a specific planet

[abstract crow]

Also counts as exploring them, unlike scanning from your starship.

[flat juniper]

You mean like when you use a ship scanner on the planet to identify its elements

[idle ore]

its progressing xD

[wary vector]

Yeah except even more

[hardy oracle]

It depends on the item. For weapons the core part is probably always best, but for the pulse engine the S(or X) class modules are more effectively supercharged

[wraith quiver]

im wanting to use decorations to give my ship a "weathere" look. Like its been crashed for years and finally got skyworthy again

[hardy oracle]

No, not like that at all. The freighter probe gives you a system map. It's entirely its own thing, not like the other scan methods.

[idle ore]

it take sages to load in 😛

[flat juniper]

They can do it is a paint job

[wraith quiver]

thats another thing im afraid of lol

[wraith quiver]

RIght yeah im using that, i mean like i have to add the grass and vines and whatnot eventually.

my ships hella small. wanted to save part space for decorations

[hardy oracle]

It looks like this. You can hover over any of the planet icons to get details:

[idle ore]

im with interior at approx 1000 pieces haha

and its a pretty smal ship tho

[ruby yacht]

guys what happens if my corvette has more than 100 pieces and i remove the no complexity limit mod?

[hardy oracle]

Just make a hard save and try it? If it doesn't work out you can just add the mod back in and load the last save.

[ruby yacht]

alr

[solemn birch]

The corvette really makes normal ships seem obsolete to me which is a little sad :/ Having all that storage and ability to leave ship without landing and scanning and such is just too good compared to others.. Only Scenarios i would pick another ship is when dogfighting

[swift bane]

After messing around a lot, and finding corvette scraps from planets, think I am happy with how this one has turned out.

[wraith quiver]

build small enough and dogfights really arent too bad in a corvette

like im trying to make different classes of corvettes tbh

[solemn birch]

Yeah i only swap to my fighter if i know i will be going hunting otherwise i also just take the fights in my corvette

[wraith quiver]

i dig it

[paper cave]

How do yall build such cool stuff? All of mine are just long boxes lol

[abstract crow]

Last I read, disabling the mod means your SOL on editing that ship. It'll say you're over the build limit. Kinda softlocks you.

[swift bane]

I just randomly put parts together and see how it looks, lol

[paper cave]

Also it kinda sucks that all the like engines and stuff take up tech slots without new slots being added

[paper cave]

I kinda like the way my tubes look, but all the engines I added have taken up everyone of my tech slots

[wraith quiver]

i played with a lot of legos as a kid.

[paper cave]

I miss being able to put tech in cargo and still have it installed

[solemn birch]

yeah this annoys me quite a bit

[hardy oracle]

I think it's interesting to have to make deliberate choices about what components we include because we can't fit them all

[solemn birch]

Isnt it only a certain amount of the components that actually count and fill the inventory? even if you make a huge ship

[hardy oracle]

Do note that corvettes also don't need all the things a regular ship needs. For example a medusa reactor replaces the need for a self-charging landing gear module

[stoic torrent]

but it's also the ugliest and least cohesive reactor part

[hardy oracle]

You can just hide it on the inside if you don't like how it looks. Though it happens to be my favorite one appearance-wise, it's the only reactor I show off on my ship, I have the others hidden. By the way, the part limit for reactors isn't shared. You can have 3 of each kind except the medusa, which shares its cap with the cockpit and therefore is limited to 2. Though apparently there is a workaround for that, but I never got it to work

[wary vector]

It sounds like it sucks at first, but they don't count towards the module limit of 3

So corvettes can get really good stats

[stoic torrent]

I hope they integrate offset building into the system in the next patch, would be tragic if they removed it

[wary vector]

Id be shocked if they remove it

[hardy oracle]

Yeah, I noticed that you can buff corvette phase beams to the point where they simply cannot overheat at all

[rapid skiff]

no its the circular one that does that. medusa is for mobility

[hardy oracle]

Uh, you may be right. I probably got them confused

[slim shale]

THAT IS FIRE

I thought it was art at first

[rapid skiff]

yeah, im no good with names, but ive got a ship that basically has everything i could fit crammed into it 😛

[paper cave]

You can?

[hardy oracle]

Yep! The phase beam arrays add heat management too, so if you stack those with S-class tech (or good X-class) you can get effectively infinite heat dissipation

[stoic torrent]

I'm more partial to the old infraknife myself

[hardy oracle]

No corvette parts for the infraknife though, at least not yet

[rapid skiff]

yeah, the problem with phase beams is they dont autotarget well. you have to manually aim them 95% of the time. but if you arent a scrub like me, then you should be fine

[stoic torrent]

yeah I'm banking on a future patch

[wary vector]

An infraknife minigun turret would be so fire

Let me make a space A-10

[hardy oracle]

The corvette weapon parts are so strong that it feels hard to justify using a weapon that isn't corvette-ified yet

[paper cave]

I am a scrub, but im also God mode so it doesn't really matter lol

[stoic torrent]

style points

[rapid skiff]

its a bit more awkward that the "missile torpedo" turret is for cyclotron and the "shotgun" turret says meant for long range precision. 😛

[exotic pulsar]

Can someone Help me

My ship won’t take the 3rd Medusa mod my previous ship was..

This one won’t, I just isn’t putting it into my starship inv to optimise, but if I place a different one it goes into the inv.

What am I doing wrong?? It’s only letting me have 2 Medusa slotted my

[rapid skiff]

you need to take off the cockpit and replace it AFTER the third medusa

[hardy oracle]

I only have a core slot supercharged for my phase beam and it shows 10590 DPS

[exotic pulsar]

Thank you, love you

[stoic torrent]

I had to rip out all of my ambassador class habs while doing interior decorating on my corvette

[rapid skiff]

medusa reactors and all 3 cockpits have the same category

[stoic torrent]

the clinical whiteness doesn't lend itself well to

well, anything

It's a thunderbird life for me

[rapid skiff]

i also like the gritty space thunderbirb

[wraith quiver]

this is the way

[paper cave]

Which hab works best for the curved windows, they dont seem to go with anything?

[stoic torrent]

Cooked up some chill spaces with the thunderbirds

[rapid skiff]

if any, probably ambassador. the round windows seem more posh, and ambassador basically spells posh 😛

[paper cave]

And you can not put them next to each other, also omfg, colorful, how?

[stoic torrent]

Coloured lights are the best thing ever

[paper cave]

I wish I was a better decorator

[rapid skiff]

you basically made a cyberpunk 2077 bar 😛

[stoic torrent]

I generally stick to panelled windows because I don't want to feel like I'm flying a fishbowl

I think the big fat windows draw the eye too much

[paper cave]

Also I wish if you pit Habs side by side they would open up into one massive area

[rapid skiff]

only windows i have on my ship are in my cockpit 😛

[hardy oracle]

I really enjoy the decal use! I should get better with that too.

[stoic torrent]

I'd be surprised if this wasn't an option later

[paper cave]

Like they did with the manual room building for freighter? Yeah, and I just like looking out into space

[rapid skiff]

i wouldnt mind being able to toggle the installation models WITHOUT changing to free place

[worthy cobalt]

How do you people manage this, placing stuff in a corvette feels like pulling teeth

[paper cave]

Ikr gov

[stoic torrent]

A lot of patience with the mousewheel. I try to rotate left, it shudders, rotates right for 90 degrees, then goes left, then starts rotating right again

It's unbearable, but I only have to do it once

[rapid skiff]

heh... thats the hope

[hardy oracle]

I tried making my cabin cozy too, but I've got nothing on Cen's style. I'll keep working at it though!

[stoic torrent]

Just get the coloured lights from the anomaly, they transform any space

[worthy cobalt]

Dang so you are just straight up rawdogging it, respect

[stoic torrent]

It does help that I grew up in a house decorated in a similar way, there was just stuff everywhere

[lone sierra]

i kinda want to make this ship from oban star racers but my first attempt sucked... kinda struggling how to do the big front pods. anyone any suggestions?

[stoic torrent]

my parents never let go of disco

[hardy oracle]

I found that it shudders much less if you go into the dedicated rotation mode, even if you're just using it to rotate it in the same way as without it

[stoic torrent]

Oh and a thing the game doesn't tell you if you're gonna use rugs

place the rugs last or everything hovers an inch off the ground

[lone sierra]

layering rugs is impossible bc of it 🙁

if the rugs are overlapping then it just raises the second rug

[hardy oracle]

Alternatively you can use that fact to avoid things clipping through the thunderbird cables on the floor. Lift your things up a tiny bit if you're going to be placing them where there's cables

[stoic torrent]

potentially arcadia wing modules?

[lone sierra]

maybe.... i will have to try. if only you could rotate it 🙁

like 90 degrees

[hardy oracle]

Layered rug?

[lone sierra]

i couldnt make it work but maybe i didnt try enough

it just made the other rug float

[stoic torrent]

I think the back rug is slightly bigger and is anchored to the floor rather than the other rug

[hardy oracle]

Neither of these are actually anchored to the floor. They're both ontop of an extremely shrunken rug beneath each. This is because the thunderbird floor isn't flat so I had to lift them a tiny bit to avoid things clipping through

[stoic torrent]

good technique

[hardy oracle]

I used a similar trick here. Though in this case I placed the planter ontop of a minimum size pallet:

[hardy oracle]

This is just for showing how, I didn't let the pallet show:

[stoic torrent]

I wish it would allow us to offset upwards pixel-by-pixel rather than having to grapple with this system

[hardy oracle]

Sure, but this isn't too troublesome of a workaround. There's plenty of objects you can use to create a surface that is better to anchor to. You don't even have to keep the helper object after

[idle ore]

I have my own CUSTOM bytebox :3

[stoic torrent]

true, but I'd love for precision to be facilitated rather than requiring workarounds to do well

[stoic torrent]

I love this

[hardy oracle]

That's delightful 🙂

[stoic torrent]

This is the interior for Firenze, btw. My first attempt at offset building

got some lucky rolls on part trading, nailed down a pair of dynamo thrusters for 4% likelihood deals

[spiral prism]

Reminds me of the GI Joe Blackbird! I always wanted one.

[wraith quiver]

do those circles move when the hatch closes?

[stoic torrent]

How do those black hole signs behave when you close the door?

[wraith quiver]

lmfao

[idle ore]

we dont talk about it 😛

[wary vector]

A ramp room for vettes that isn't the size of a fire escape stairway would be nice.

[spiral prism]

Can’t go around talking about peoples holes

[stoic torrent]

I'd definitely appreciate a more robust staircase

or, hell, even an elevator for vettes with superstructures like Star Destroyer recreations

[wraith quiver]

do the teleporters not work?

i havent fiddled with them, but i wanted to try it out sometime

have the entryway lead to like an observatory room and then have a teleporter to the cockpit

[idle ore]

not realy cozy, but it ha ssomething haha

[stoic torrent]

We have to keep reminding ourselves that the available corvette modules are more than likely barebones at the moment

[idle ore]

nope, placeable but thats it

[idle ore]

wanna see some hidden modules? 😛

[hardy oracle]

You guys and your flying space palaces. I only have my two habs. No need for stairs if there's no second floor 🙂

[stoic torrent]

is the pope catholic

[wraith quiver]

and honestly this is quite a bit for barebones.

[spiral prism]

Looks like your character is smashed… then I realized

[wraith quiver]

i only have a walkway lol

[stoic torrent]

awesome use of this decal

tremble before Pod

[wraith quiver]

LMFAO

[regal copper]

it's beautiful

[stoic torrent]

he didn't used to need landing gear, but summoning him was buggy without it

[wraith quiver]

gotta look that up as well

[idle ore]

spot it haha

[stoic torrent]

?

[idle ore]

thats a corvette piece + deco 🙂

[stoic torrent]

very cool

despite being made of literally 3 parts, Pod has the turning circle of an ocean liner

I have no idea why

[wraith quiver]

whats that big chonky piece

[idle ore]

"ambassador" 🙂

[wraith quiver]

them thangs right there?

[spiral prism]

Might need some more pulse engine modules

[lone sierra]

what r thoseeee

[frigid moat]

I've a question.. I made a star destroyer (star wars) but with lots of habs but the backside just looks well.. cubey.. its just squares and not really nice to look at from the backside

[spiral prism]

Balls

[frigid moat]

how do you guys fix the backside of your ship?

[wraith quiver]

a light, but firm spanking.

no but what do you mean "fix?

[frigid moat]

HAHA

[idle ore]

o fck...

[frigid moat]

sorry

[little halo]

Peep the corvette

[wraith quiver]

you could always do like thrusters or some of the angly pieces and then flip them on top of one another to come to a point

[stoic torrent]

When in doubt, speedbird cowling

[wraith quiver]

^ this is the way.

[tawdry cove]

i really wish there was a paint all button for corvette customization

[wraith quiver]

dig it

[spiral prism]

Need external light options too

[stoic torrent]

And custom engine sounds based on the number of parts on the ship/type of engines

I can’t stand the “pshhh” when I’m driving a corvette the size of a freighter

[hardy oracle]

And separate inside and outside paint for hab modules 🙂

[stoic torrent]

Give me a BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTT

[spiral prism]

Internal doors

[regal copper]

yes please

[idle ore]

ITS TIME FOR ANOTHER CORVETTE xD

[regal copper]

but first, i just want blank walls

i am sick and tired of everything having to be a doorway

[wraith quiver]

theres a sound thats always in sci fi movies that almost sounds like a deep trumpet. often played when theres a big ship looming in the sky. Idk id just love to hear that sound implemented somewhere in game

[spiral prism]

Hard to decorate these walls

[spiral prism]

Bass drop and brown note

[regal copper]

it's hard to decorate walls especially when there are no walls and they're all doorways

[spiral prism]

Disappointed adjoining habs don’t make a large room

[regal copper]

this is true as well

[stoic torrent]

Multi-part structures that form single modules if built correctly

[idle ore]

hmmm. . .

[stoic torrent]

Let me build a FUNCTIONING railgun that’s half the ship’s mass

[hardy oracle]

I do think this in particular will probably happen at some point. We're still pretty early in the patch sequence for corvettes

[wraith quiver]

we've been pretty loud about that, and thats already a thing for freighters so im pretty confident in this being implemented

[spiral prism]

Droppable bombs to make a legit bomber

[wraith quiver]

you get it

[frigid moat]

and glass floor windows

[spiral prism]

Glass floors would be cool

[wraith quiver]

can always merge thrusters and wings. the scaffoldings also flip and look pretty decent too

[frigid moat]

Thats a really cool design!!

[stoic torrent]

Cosmetic build category for parts that I don’t want to have a function

So it doesn’t eat my tech slots

[spiral prism]

Definitely

Is there a way to control where you corvette lands when you portal to a base?

[wraith quiver]

thanks!

[spiral prism]

Mine just ends up inside the base

[spiral prism]

Need a beacon we can place to designate landing then

[cyan skiff]

Is there a way for other players to put base parts inside the Corvette, just like as if they had editing privileges for your personal base on planet

nope, but i can remove parts from my friend haha super weird

[spiral prism]

Recently, someone hijacked another player’s corvette

Does that count

[cyan skiff]

Bummer. Would be cool to let them have their own space

[spiral prism]

Or to blow them into space, via the airlocks

[cyan skiff]

That too

[rugged compass]

What reason would there be for a ramp and a hab not to form a tunnel? I can access my Habs from my access ramp...

[pale thicket]

How can I have my Corvette being higher than C-rank ?

[lucid helm]

Same way you rank up your other ships.

[calm tinsel]

Nanites at space stations

[pale thicket]

Oh ok I thought it was from modules

[calm tinsel]

It'll be behind the central bridge area of the station

[hardy oracle]

#nms-corvette-discussion message

[calm tinsel]

It's 85000 for S rank I believe. You can open packs of suspicious tech mods and sell them for loads of nanites, if you have patience. If you descover lists of fauna and flora, you can upload them from the discovery page for nanites as well

discover*

The slime can be refined into mould, which can then turn into nanite clusters, again with patience. You can find runaway mould on planets which can give you thousands of moulds at once

Looks like large balls. When hit, they run away

[pale thicket]

Time to farm nanites I guess

[calm tinsel]

Indeed

[pale thicket]

If I upgrade my Corvette, can I change its design and keep the rank ?

[wraith quiver]

whos got that offset building tut videooooeeoeeoo

[pale thicket]

Or do I have to spend nanites over again

[hardy oracle]

As many times as you like. Editing it doesn't reset the rank

[calm tinsel]

I would think as long as the ship isn't deleted. I actually don't know how to get rid of corvettes permanently

[hardy oracle]

Only way I found is to strip it as bare as you can and then trade it for some random ship at a station. You can then scrap that ship instead

[graceful viper]

how can i deconstruct a corvette cos i want all the parts back

[hardy oracle]

I don't think you can get ALL the parts back. You can however save it as a minimally valid corvette

[pale thicket]

Good to know, thank you

[placid needle]

Can I have 2 hatches on a corvette?

[calm tinsel]

Yep

You can have as many as will fit, as far as I know. My corvette has one in the front and one in the back

[rapid skiff]

the only thing you cant have multiple of in corvettes are cockpits

[calm tinsel]

I'ma build an all-hatch, all-landing gear monstrosity

[rapid skiff]

at least, i havent seen a way to do it. the game wont let you leave the build menu with more than one

[calm tinsel]

Would be kinda cool to have a battle-bridge though

My friends need to be able to operate turrets

[rapid skiff]

yeah, but that would imply the ability to have multiple people controlling the same ship

[calm tinsel]

Or at least some sort of passtime while flying

[rapid skiff]

turrets, sure, a full cockpit? nah

[calm tinsel]

Yeah

I'd settle for a simple form of checkers or chess that we can set up, like that holographic game from Star Wars

[wraith quiver]

I like how warframe does their railjack system. something similar might be cool, but i dont feel like theres enough combat in NMS for that to be a thing to be added

[rapid skiff]

heh, the thunderbird nutrition station has that as an easter-egg 😛

[placid needle]

Thanks I was having a problem where one would stay open and wouldn’t be able to shut

[calm tinsel]

I know, I use Thunderbird because it looks so grimey LOL I love it

My whole ship is being filled with clutter

[wraith quiver]

same. i want my ship to look like a hoarders room.

[calm tinsel]

I want to make it look like a pirate-hijacked freighter

[calm tinsel]

I already shared pics of the cargo bay here, but I could show them again LOL

[unborn salmon]

What is it that determines manoeuvrability?

[wraith quiver]

pulse engine i suppose. i think size has something to do with it as well.

[calm tinsel]

Some reactors, mostly thrusters

Some reactors can also improve your boost

[obsidian grotto]

So that's another corvette done ( I spend to much time doing this I swear) I'm pretty new (35h) so how does the stats works cos I just don't understand, I have another one with less rare materials and the stats are better, how does it work ?

[hot torrent]

leatherback sea turtle!

[karmic berry]

RIP you will be missed 🙏🏼

[thorny summit]

is this a good way to put tech upgrades together?

[calm tinsel]

Somewhat envious LOL I love my ship tho

That is a wicked design tho

Where are the other ones?

[wraith quiver]

i wanna make a hidden cockpit build

[rugged terrace]

What are those red pieces on the front of the ship where the shield sphere is?

[unborn salmon]

If you do then you will be forced to fly in 3rd person.

[wraith quiver]

i like flying in 3rd anyway tbh

like to see my ship

[calm tinsel]

I'm hoping we get more moving parts. I want to see thrusters collapse and expand when landing or flying

[wraith quiver]

yes

[obsidian grotto]

pretty proud of this one yh lmao, STILL I don't understand how the stats works cos as you can see i just removed and replace 2 pieces and the manoeuvrability changed

[obsidian grotto]

here's my first one

[calm tinsel]

Awesome designs

[obsidian grotto]

I spent like 6h per corvette figuring it out

not even joking this takes a lot of time lol

[calm tinsel]

It does

[calm tinsel]

On top of the internal mods

[spiral jasper]

i dont know all of the exact details, but adding/removing parts does change the stats (specifically maneuverability). it also matter where they are placed along the length of the ship, as well as if the ship in symmetrical or not

[onyx hollow]

Could someone give me a rundown on how to make a corvette good for combat and general use? Feel free to dm it to me if its easier

[obsidian grotto]

it is totally symetrical, every piece, still i have less manoeuvrability with the one I just made which is with better parts

[faint citrus]

No.

Too much math

[onyx hollow]

Just general advice then

Like any components that are a must

[rugged compass]

S-tier internals will let you make almost any mistake in combat you want -- just like in non-corvette ships. Go for aesthetics beyond that.

[spiral jasper]

the best weapon is infra-knife, but since it doesnt have a corvette module, its harder to optimize. the deadeye cannon gives the positron emitter, which can basically one-shot anything, but has terrible range

whatever you choose, you probably want at least 1 supercharged slot dedicated to the weapon, the upgrade you can get from the anomaly, and 3 S class upgrades

[rugged compass]

Prioritize shield and 2x weapons and maneuverability stats.

[wary vector]

Honestly just invest heavily in the cyclotron ballista. Its a good gun that can work well on its own

[obsidian grotto]

seems like adding thrusters for design also decrease the manoeuvrability

[rugged compass]

Can be mitigated with good internals.

[hardy oracle]

I really like using most my supercharged slots for pulse drive upgrades, love high mobility. It's a great idea to put the core component of your main weapon on a supercharged slot though.

[wary vector]

Only the three best thrusters you have seem to do anything positive, after that any parts you add are essentially just dead weight.

[spiral jasper]

at a certain point it does, since the added "weight" of the piece has outweighs the added manoeuverability from it

[spiral jasper]

those are crazy stats. how did you get them all so high?

[hardy oracle]

I've been grinding a lot of X-class modules!

[spiral jasper]

oh, fair lol

[obsidian grotto]

well, makes sense, also for internals I don,'t have any space to add modules, how do I do then ?

[spiral jasper]

what do you mean by that?

[wary vector]

What is your top speed in low atmosphere with 3700 manouverability?

[hardy oracle]

Not sure! I'll head down to check. Is it the same on all worlds? Feels like I move slower on some.

[wary vector]

I think so?

[obsidian grotto]

I only have one free slot

[wary vector]

You just upgrade it with storage augments just like normal starships

With the terminal at the back of space stations

[raven zealot]

First try of a Corvette "Rocinante", from The Expanse. What do you think?

[spiral jasper]

oh i see. if you have the money (or if you want to switch to free purchases, since its so expensive) or if you have storage augmentation, just add more slots. you wont have an optimized ship unless you have all tech slots unlocked

[wary vector]

How many tech slots can Corvettes have anyways? I think I have 39 in mine. Is the limit higher to account for all of the component based modules?

[hardy oracle]

158 u/s while just holding W, 724 u/s while boosting. Tested flying low over an ocean.

[wary vector]

That's pretty quick lol.

[spiral jasper]

60 i think. the same as all ships

[hardy oracle]

6*10=60

[obsidian grotto]

how do I add more slots lol can't figure out where to buy slots ?

[spiral jasper]

700 is crazy lol. idk how to optimize boost like that, mine is at about 550

[spiral jasper]

at the back of the space station, on the left

[obsidian grotto]

thx a lot guys appreciate it

[spiral jasper]

upgrade starship -> add inventory slots -> whichever method you choose

[wary vector]

Its gets really expensive if you wanna do it with money. You can earn storage augments doing some missions, or if you get your trade/Merc/explorer guild status high enough they will give you free ones sometimes.

[spiral jasper]

or you can just change to free purchases. thats what i usually do, since farming the augmentations or units is not worth the time

[hardy oracle]

These don't connect with eachother for adjacency, but they all help with manoeuvrability

[wary vector]

To each their own. The only thing I've ever cheated into this game is the Frigate Salvage Modules to unlock freighter tech.

[spiral jasper]

oh, its the x class modules. i forgot lol

[spiral jasper]

its not cheating, its literally in the menu

they added it so people didnt need to waste hours farming

[hardy oracle]

X-class are pretty sweet, but it takes a really long time or a lot of luck to get ones that are noticably better than S-class

[wary vector]

Potato potato

[celest hill]

So the torpedoes give the ballista a dps boost, but the projectiles don't come from the ballista, or is it bugged? All projectiles come from my cockpit and I still don't know if that's normal or not 🙁
