nms-corvette-discussion

[dark citrus]

Tragically just like any other C class ship

[woeful ledge]

What on the upgrade terminal?

[dark citrus]

Ye

[slow harbor]

As for mine I specifically ONLY used nanites from planet exploration for that ship

[woeful ledge]

I didn't know that, I'm still somewhat new to nms

[dark citrus]

welcome 🙂

[slow harbor]

To keep with the lore

This ship has crossed Euclid twice

[sleek oasis]

Shut up Gunter, we know 😡

[dark citrus]

That's wild.

[slow harbor]

I tried doing weekend mission

it sent me somewhere

[frosty belfry]

I wish it was easier to get parts tbh

[slow harbor]

i flew somewhere

[sleek oasis]

Just turn on the setting

[slow harbor]

somewhere ended up being directly across me

[dark citrus]

I became a radiant shard enjoyer to get mine

[slow harbor]

?

[dark citrus]

They are 50 nanites each

[frosty belfry]

I like exploring, I just wish I could mine terrain in a vehicle

[dark citrus]

You can

[slow harbor]

Ah yes also i forgot we can use portals and FLEW BACK

overall the voyage took like the whole weekend

[dark citrus]

Must've been one helluva weekend

[sleek oasis]

I got a nice Corvette in progress but I'm stuck, idk what to do for the front

[slow harbor]

well it very much was

[smoky dawn]

I built a ❓ ❓ ❓

I was just messing around. wtf did I create

[slow harbor]

cos we were doing it in a team

[wraith quiver]

lol thats a fuggin UNIT

[slow harbor]

it these wiggle bug kids toys

that vibrate to move

[dark citrus]

that's a dropship, that is

[smoky dawn]

Hexbug lookin ass ship

[dark citrus]

or a nms at-at

[slow harbor]

yes this

exactly this

its actually ingeniously adorable and i love that ship

[smoky dawn]

Yknow what just for that I’m finalizing it, core memory restored

[slow harbor]

also green brothers

[smoky dawn]

Yoooo 🤝

I’ve been using wayyy too much orange so I used green instead

[wraith quiver]

i finally used gold. im not big on gold but it worked out on my little wing

[slow harbor]

Core memory restored moments are always the best

[stark harness]

I heard people are losing corvettes?
Any idea whats causing it??

[spiral prism]

Not sure. I lost one and almost another recently. All I can say is if you are on pc, back up your JSON file before playing MP.

[wraith quiver]

well im glad i havent made any friends yet

id be heartbroken

[spiral prism]

It only happens in MP, so far

[slow harbor]

I think it only happens on crossplay

[dark citrus]

Definitely report that stuff if it happens to you

[spiral prism]

For sure

[solar oasis]

Hey galactic hope you’ve been well. I lost my corvette while pulse driving and entering a planets atmosphere my game no longer registered it exists

[dark citrus]

For crazy stuff like that, they like it if you attach a copy of your save

[spiral prism]

Can you reload from an earlier save or restore point?

[solar oasis]

Nope the game updated my save as soon as my screen went black and threw me into space

[spiral prism]

Both the restore and auto save?

[smoky dawn]

The thingamabob has taken flight 🔥

[stark harness]

YIIIIKES
I hope your doing well too!

[solar oasis]

I was able to get my graphics back but the corvette was invis and when I tried to buy a new ship and land on a planet it completely disappeared from my game.

[dark citrus]

oh snap

[solar oasis]

I exited my pilot seat trying to figure out why my screen went black and then I got thrown into space so yea both

[slow harbor]

noice

[spiral prism]

Sorry to hear that.

[dark citrus]

I got yeeted into space at the end of the expedition but I was able to just summon my ship back

That sucks

[solar oasis]

Well it’s ok. I started a new save so I’m only like 6 or 7 hours in

But I can imagine other people might not be in the same situation

[dark citrus]

Yeah, if you still happen to have that save, definitely send a copy to them. Even if you don't, please report the bug

That's awful

[solar oasis]

I’m not sure how to do that on ps5

I def submitted a bug report

[slow harbor]

spaceyeet happens when you have a spacewalk moment, usually happens on ladders and sometimes in Ambassador cockpit

[dark citrus]

I'm not either, tbh.

[dark citrus]

I was sitting in my cockpit 😄

[spiral prism]

I’ve had such weird stuff happen on corvettes, especially on the expedition

[dark citrus]

But allegedly they fixed my version of that bug

[hoary galleon]

Show ?

[dark citrus]

A feature this big, I'm not surprised it's buggy at launch

[slow harbor]

ladders still sometimes yeet you if you aren't careful

but only when pulsing

[dark citrus]

It touches on virtually every aspect of the game

[wraith quiver]

oh this was long ago sorry i never saved it or anything. if i end up doing it again ill send a picture

[spiral prism]

Big update to an almost 10 year old game is bound to be unstable

But at least they are working on it

[dark citrus]

They always do

[slow harbor]

yeah especially if you rewrite half of the game code to make corvettes possible

[dark citrus]

I'm glad they push out fixes as fast as they can and don't make us wait for one huge patch

[solar oasis]

Yea it’s why I’m not sweating it. I’ve played this game long enough to know they’ll handle it

[spiral prism]

Ship building is an amazing feature for any game. I never saw it coming.

[dark citrus]

Right? I was shocked

[spiral prism]

It’s far better than star ship building

Like building a moving base

Maybe they can bring some of the same features to starship building

[cursive lark]

I saw a ship with a glitched cockpit that had two, how do I do this?

[dark citrus]

The person I saw said they just spammed P until it took

[dense torrent]

anyone know why I can put an aerofoil under one side, and not the other?

[spiral prism]

People also figured out how to place pieces at 45 degrees… so anything is possible right now

[ivory heart]

hows the frame looking so far

[spiral prism]

Like a stealth bomber

[ivory heart]

im kind of limited on the greeble options that give me vertical fill for the spine

[ivory heart]

💀 not quite what im going for

[sleek oasis]

hmm not sure (front)

[ivory heart]

uh whats the difference

[spiral prism]

In my defense, I couldnt see the whole thing

[ivory heart]

indeed lol

[sleek oasis]

none, different angle

[ivory heart]

oh lmao

[spiral prism]

In any case, it cool

[ivory heart]

you know its bad when i had to pull out the sweaty gamer crosshair overlay to line up panels better 🤦‍♀️

[spiral prism]

Nothing bad. Use whatever you can

[ivory heart]

im referring to build difficulty

honestly the external plating is going to be easier than figuring out the internal layout lol

[stark harness]

I wish we had doors :(

[spiral prism]

Sorry. I’m misinterpreting all stuff right now. I cannot be trusted

[ivory heart]

you can use hatches like makeshift doors, not ideal but it does work

[stark harness]

Hatches?

[ivory heart]

ramps sorry

[stark harness]

Ooooo

[ivory heart]

iirc theres also some glitch to get open spaces but im not 100% sure on that (so you could have a doorway without the door leading outside)

[ivory heart]

not bad

[brazen pasture]

took me frickin forever but I finally got a build I'm satisfied with

[ivory heart]

nice rounding on the back

[brazen pasture]

It got to the point where I actually started putting deco elements inside

[ivory heart]

ive been spamming one of the starter system chats with:

[brazen pasture]

ain't gonna touch the structure again on this one

lmao

[stark harness]

Very clean!!!!!!!!!

Love the lines

[brazen pasture]

believe it or not, that was the easiest part

the aerodynamic look at the front was a nightmare

and I constantly needed to bump up the living space if I wanted to dedicate a decent amount to deco stuff

make it look lived in and whatnot

gotta grind salvaged data to unlock the stuff I want now

[ivory heart]

if you want hydroponics hit me up i found some crazy deco for that style

[brazen pasture]

oooo nice, will do

I've got planters in my main corridor (ambassador) and in my right hull (titan)

left hull is crew quarters

piece of corridor at the rear of the central hull is captain's chambers

storage/refinery in the lower deck
living quarters and flight room in the mid deck
and a small medical top deck

[dull moat]

Just realized this is a better spot to ask sooooo, I need ideas for corvette builds

[ivory heart]

my last ship had this

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1309595535426064429/1416939734063775825/image.png?ex=68cb4e76&is=68c9fcf6&hm=c9d20a33e84d7c7d684a95b53611baa22ba9325c92297a88d8420171c1d089ca&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=1076&height=605

an epic embed fail apparently

[brazen pasture]

haha thanks

[dull moat]

I feel that one lol. Its happened to me a few times

[ivory heart]

as well as another few hydroponics rooms, i was going for a kind of mad science approach. Even had jellyfish horrors inside of some planter pods like a metroid in containment

[brazen pasture]

annoying that the base of the devices doesn't change color

[ivory heart]

yeah, some have broken paint layers

it seems to mostly be the derelict freighter components

[brazen pasture]

there's a lot cosmetic wise that needs fixing

the titan windows are opaque

can't see a damn thing through them

[stark harness]

Decided to share

[ivory heart]

i dont think thats OSHA compliant

[brazen pasture]

[brazen pasture]

I love the suspended plants

didn't know there were fire extinguishers

[stark harness]

Listen

The aliens take care of the pests and are very well compensated!

[brazen pasture]

I need SO MUCH salvaged data...

[stark harness]

Those are part of the planter model actually

[wraith quiver]

ooooh

[brazen pasture]

ohhhh

sad

[brazen pasture]

the nose in front of the cockpit is VERY clean

nice

[ivory heart]

i keep getting smacked in the face by incoming npc starships 🤣

im building in peace when suddenly i get haymakered across the ENTIRE hangar bay 💀

[brazen pasture]

not exactly corvette related but I imagine the bigger ships out there to scale up to frigates like on this photo

[ivory heart]

hmm i should find one and measure with my corvette

i think im 22-24 modules long rn

[dull torrent]

I just lost my corvette and got put into space randomly can someone help me

[ivory heart]

press X

go to summon

[brazen pasture]

the melding of parts is CLEAN, damn
also, smart thinking/tinkering to sandwich the cockpit like you did
would never think of doing something like that myself

[ivory heart]

summon your corvette

its a Tesla btw

[dull torrent]

It’s completely gone

I lost the whole thing

[ivory heart]

it should still show in the summon menu?

[dull torrent]

No

[ivory heart]

jesus

[brazen pasture]

not even that, recovery ship should be first thing on the left

[ivory heart]

bro got vaporized

[dull torrent]

I got the recovery ship

[willow lichen]

Glitch building is pretty neat.

[wraith quiver]

these are like horror stories lmfao

[ivory heart]

try getting to a station somehow and going to ur ship select or something?

then pray

[wraith quiver]

reload lmfao

[ivory heart]

that too

[dull torrent]

I jetpacked to station and reloaded but it’s completely gone

[ivory heart]

you tried the corvette management menu, yes?

[wraith quiver]

it probably saved after it deleted

[ivory heart]

see if your components were put in your stash

[dull torrent]

The corvette workshop

[wraith quiver]

thats so scary. are you in multiplayer by any chance?

[ivory heart]

fr i gotta find the corvette save file and back mine up, ive spent like 12 hrs on it now

[dull torrent]

No it’s all gone

[twin ore]

cam i post my corvette here

[dull torrent]

In the cache too

[ivory heart]

if its not to discuss go to #nms-showcase-corvettes

[twin ore]

thanks ^u^

[brazen pasture]

I wished there was weapon modules for every ship weapon
I'd like to get rid of the photon cannon but you're forced to have it unfortunately
the infraknife is so good

[dull torrent]

Is the corvette management menu different than the workshop?

[sleek oasis]

think this'll work for this?

[ivory heart]

no, but also try the starship menu down near the end of the station

[brazen pasture]

I see the sat dish, nice
got it as well
underused prop imo

[wraith quiver]

I like it. i wish we had more cockpit options.

but i think it works for that one.

[twin ore]

samee!

[ivory heart]

are you in or near the starting system

i can give you new ship components

it wont replace any deco time or anything but will get you back up and running

[sleek oasis]

not satisfied with how it looks unfortunately

[dull torrent]

Dw about it

[ivory heart]

they unfortunately all look really bad imo, im custom making my own bridge around one of the cockpit modules atm 🤣

[dark citrus]

I am really surprised they won't let us delete it since we can dump it in ordinary starships

[twin ore]

thats why i just hid my cockpit i posted it in the thingy i made like a fighter jet relective “cockpit”

[wraith quiver]

yeah i hide the cockpit half the time

[twin ore]

looks sooo good only had to do a little silly building trick

[wraith quiver]

i dont play in first person often.

[dark citrus]

It looks good as-is, and it's a great foundation to build on

[ivory heart]

indeed

[ivory heart]

i like to allow both if possible, and will swap between them

[sleek oasis]

with some different sides, still okay at best

[wraith quiver]

that cockpit is super dope because you can see through the floor, and it makes you not want to build around it.

[dark citrus]

It's the one I use

[wraith quiver]

i used that one on my most recent ship. this recent ship i built to fly in first person more.

[ivory heart]

filling out more of the paneling and closing up gaps

[wraith quiver]

cant wait til youre all done with that one

[ivory heart]

its gonna take a long ass time

luckily ive found several methods to make stuff not glacially slow

but unfortunately both building AND figuring out what to build are both slow here

[runic bluff]

I've posted it here before but folks, do I remake this? Not QUITE satisfied with it

[dull torrent]

I took off from the planet and activated the pulse drive towards the space station I got a notification for something to slow down then my screen went completely black and I had no ui but I could hear stuff. I went to restore point it was the same thing so i went to title screen. Loaded back in it was the same thing. I closed the game loaded back in I was in space then jetpacked to space station and I have no sign of my corvette

[runic bluff]

Trying to fit 9 reactors in a build is agony

Wait, 12, not 9

[ivory heart]

just scale up :P

[runic bluff]

That build is at Complexity limit

[ivory heart]

just scale up but cheaper

[runic bluff]

[ivory heart]

(riveting advice im sure)

you can replace aesthetic sections with interior decoration

[ivory heart]

^

[runic bluff]

Interior doesn't count towards complexity

[ivory heart]

it isnt fast but it will get the job done without adding to the complexity

[runic bluff]

Ohhh

[ivory heart]

exactly

[runic bluff]

I get what you mean

[ivory heart]

yup

fewer paneling modules, similar aesthetics

[runic bluff]

[ivory heart]

join the UNSC shipyards today (real and based)

[runic bluff]

I'm not even sure how I'd do that, I'm running unmodded

[ivory heart]

as am i

[runic bluff]

I'm also trying to see what I can come up with without offsets

[ivory heart]

you can literally scale panels and place them as long as you are standing on or near your ship

[ivory heart]

^ this is entirely unmodded lol

[fervent mist]

Should I use the reload auto save trick to try and get 4 super charge slots in square formation? Apparently have to upgrade to s class immediately. Otherwise my maneuverability is stuck on 1658

[ivory heart]

i believe in you

[stark harness]

I hope we get shielded cockpits like the Sentinel ships

[ivory heart]

that is crazy work

[fervent mist]

On ps5 so not sure it will work

[ivory heart]

im at like 300 maneuverability 💀

[fervent mist]

My ship is big too so maybe 1658 is good enough? One guy with this truck got his corvette to 5000

[fervent mist]

I have no cosmetics except a speed cowling since they seem to reduce maneuverability but sometimes add? Hard to to figure out

[brazen pasture]

having a weapon module is a requirement to have an operational corvette

[wraith quiver]

what dont you like about it

[north hatch]

so i keep seeing people put normal base parts on their corvettes, how do you pull that off?

[cursive lark]

opinion on the first prototype of my Lander 3, modeled after the lander ship from interstellar? It's exactly 100 parts

[runic bluff]

Internal cockpit

Kinda want functionality of canopy

[cursive lark]

lots of glitching to get the cockpit centered

[fervent mist]

Btw, you can sell your corvette or swap with npc and then scrap the ship from npc right? Since you can’t scrap corvette?

[dark citrus]

Yes, but in a normal starship once you have one, you can delete it. I was expecting the same in a corvette

[wraith quiver]

oh idk i have no problem with internals

[cursive lark]

yes

[runic bluff]

Also the generators in the flanking wings feel a touch out of place

[fervent mist]

Nice, would you do the reload auto save or 1658.8 maneuverability is good? It’s big

[north hatch]

like @maiden mica i see those wooden floors how'd u do that tell me ur secrets

[fervent mist]

Does maneuverability even matter that much? Is 2k soft cap true?

[ivory heart]

they arent talking about that, they are talking about the upgrade module slot

[runic bluff]

Does anyone else have problems with getting yeeted out of your Corvette when trying to go down a staircase during pulse Jump??

[fervent mist]

Never

[brazen pasture]

Same

[ivory heart]

sure you NEED a weapon, but you should be able to slap a rocket launcher on there then remove the upgrade module slot for the photon laser

then use rockets

[brazen pasture]

I certainly could use the extra slots on my corvette

[fervent mist]

That’s why I’m considering reload auto save trick

[cursive lark]

oh yes

[brazen pasture]

?

[fervent mist]

It’s on YouTube but you can get 4 supercharge slots apparently

I have 3 on my current one

[maiden mica]

2 mods. one gives more build freedoms such as base parts used on corvettes and freighters, and one that restores legacy base parts to the build menu.

[dark citrus]

I slapped my infra knife on there immediately and then was choked that I couldn't get rid of the photon. Now it's just a thing taking up space and I have to toggle through it. I thought I could avoid it by using the expedition gun since I don't mind having the space shotgun for farming up some ferrite dust, but nope.

[runic bluff]

Also kinda racking my brain still on how to use all the Arcadia pieces

[north hatch]

ah damn i was hoping u could glitch em on there in vanilla

[brazen pasture]

No not that
I ran out of tech slots, I already got two back by reducing the types of modules I was using, reducing the landing gear count and removing a reactor, if I could remove the two slots the pulse cannon and its related module take, I could certainly make better use of them

[maiden mica]

they dont show in the menu to even get a glitch to work

[north hatch]

i was thinking maybe if u land in a planet base, select the part, and board then maybe it'd work

but nah

which sucks bc i really want a trade terminal on my corvette

[wraith quiver]

yeah im sure youll figure it out. i learned most i know by happy accident

[wide cliff]

What if my dumbahh lost the echo locator for expedition corvette, is there anyway i can get another one on the same expedition or should i reset? 😭😭

[north hatch]

blow up these things

it's 50/50 to get an echo locator or an inverted mirror from them, it'll tell u which if u aim at one

[wraith quiver]

5050 my ass

[maiden mica]

the vette menu seems to overide the base menu, i tried doing that. you can go far enough away to kick the base menu on and select a part and walk to the vette and place it, but any weird move that i havent figured out yet causes it to revert to the vette menu.

[north hatch]

yeah i tried doing that, but HG was a step ahead of me

it counts as "out of base range" if it's on the vette

[wide cliff]

Omgg thank youu soooo much wull tryy that

[north hatch]

ALLEGEDLY 50/50

[wraith quiver]

lmfao i get what you mean i just have the shittiest luck with those damn things. ill count 20 before ever finding one echo locator

[north hatch]

wait nvm im just stupid

[ivory heart]

hi just stupid im Game

[wraith quiver]

oh lol i still even think THATS bullshit

[fervent mist]

Is emergency warp good idea or water landing gear?

[wraith quiver]

id say landing gear but thats because i love the fights and wont really bail on them

[fervent mist]

I see, I’m more of an explorer

Ship is huge and may not be best in fights

[wraith quiver]

then maybe the warp might be a good idea for you

[low whale]

Do we know yet how corvette stats work? Do regular ship modules stack with corvette parts? Are there stat caps? How are supercharged slots determined?

[wraith quiver]

i think supercharges are random. regular modules do stack with corvette parts. havent figured out any stat caps yet myselg

[empty turtle]

Just got done building this

[sleek oasis]

Fuck I wish we could angle the engine covers vertically, specifically downward

[empty turtle]

Agreed

[sleek oasis]

Have a nice round shape under cockpits

[stark harness]

Emergency warp is great if you wanna just go to a random location. I use the one from that one expedition on my freighter all the time

Its great for exploration

[runic bluff]

Not sure how I feel about narrowing the frame and pushing the cockpit forward to allow first person visibility...

[sleek oasis]

I swear the cockpits are the hardest to make look good

[empty turtle]

I usually just hide them inside the frame of my ships I build

[runic bluff]

Oh I can make it look decent but then I have to deal with 2+ staircases

Last setup had that problem

[stark harness]

I would totally use the ambassador one if it wasnt so hard to use

It looks so goofy on the outside

Like someone melted your cockpit

Id prefer it to be a half sphere

[sleek oasis]

What I find weird is how we don't have the old ships parts for Corvettes

[runic bluff]

Last one was the one mid-flight from this post

[empty turtle]

I hid the cockpit on this one I built

[sleek oasis]

I might need to but not sure yet

I was thinking of trying a cockpit like this tomorrow

Since I don't like how mine look

[empty turtle]

That looks really good

[pseudo forge]

HIdden cockpits are cool. This is one of mine.

[sleek oasis]

Blue I'm keeping, red Im not so sure lol

So I think I'm gonna look at a bunch of ships, see if I can get some inspiration

[dark citrus]

I really love a lot of the parts we have, but I wish we could rotate them *all * in x-y-z axis and at least in 45 degree turns in stead of just 90. I am trash at glitch building and I just want that stuff by default.

[wraith quiver]

i can agree with that.

[sleek oasis]

Tbf glitching is limited, it's only to move stuff more precisely

[thorny wyvern]

Mecha Build

[empty turtle]

That's what I had to do with my other ship.

[wraith quiver]

heres a hidden cockpit

[empty turtle]

I love the look of that corvette

[wraith quiver]

thank you

[empty turtle]

Np

Here's a better look at my ship with a hidden cockpit

[runic bluff]

12 Reactors, something something powderkeg

[empty turtle]

My god

I usually max myself at 3 reactors lol

[stark harness]

I love how people are developing classes of corvettes already

Like, we have the haulers, quinjets, and pirate vessels

[sleek oasis]

nah right

[wraith quiver]

i love how we all have our own styles too. im trying to make one of each kind lol i keep making fighters

[wraith quiver]

i like this one more

[stark harness]

@sleek oasis you know the things on the side of the red part? Try putting those on with this one. Makes the transition line better

I feel those cowlings (is that the word???) stick out too much

[runic bluff]

I keep ending up with vessels that look like knockoff Elite Dangerous ships

[wraith quiver]

im trying to challenge myself to make things look a bit different than another but eh

when i try to make a "huge" ship its never anything above 5 habs lol and then i see these grand creations everyone else makes

[empty turtle]

I believe in you, I had a hard time with my first few. Looked more like cardboard boxes when I started lol

[silk meadow]

would you eat in my intergalactic kitchen

[wraith quiver]

yeah i think ill do it tonight. after building my first asymmetrical ship, im pretty motivated to make a large one now

[wraith quiver]

hell yeah

[empty turtle]

Large ones in my opinion are easier to experiment with

[silk meadow]

i got all the ingredients for herbal crunchies lol

nms weed brownies ig lol

first time with interior design tbh

[empty turtle]

It looks really gopd

[silk meadow]

first serious attempt*

[empty turtle]

Good

[silk meadow]

thanks 🙂

[empty turtle]

Yw

I dont do much with interior of my ships, just the basic stuff

[sleek oasis]

reminds me too much of this for some reason lol (the head)

[wraith quiver]

LOL

SEAN WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH 9 AMBASSADOR COCKPITS

HUH?!

[sleek oasis]

align them, duh

[empty turtle]

This was my first hidden cockpit attempt

[stark harness]

could I get away with this? Id really like to have 2 but the profile I want doesnt support them spaced out

[livid veldt]

Did they take the big bubbling water tube out of the avail base parts for Corvette builds? I used one 2 weeks ago in a build and now I don't see it as an available part to build with. ??

[sleek oasis]

no 😡

[wraith quiver]

yeah might need to offset it down a pad.

lol

[runic bluff]

The Venn™ Booster

[livid veldt]

lol

[runic bluff]

Do the two Arcadia pieces on the back forming a twin tail look too silly?

Ship felt front heavy so it was a bandaid solution

[stark harness]

I think this works, Im going to cover my reactor room anyway

[wraith quiver]

idk why the screen looks like this but i went with 3 staggered

[livid veldt]

I quite like the look.

[runic bluff]

Me for scale, directly under the rightmost engine

Had no clue where to put that last Shield generator

[empty turtle]

I also built this. I wish I could've changed the scale of the actual sails

[sleek oasis]

🤔

i've redesigned this part here compared to how it was in the past, looks more complete

[stark harness]

whats up with my stats????

[empty turtle]

Its a glitch

[wraith quiver]

mine does that all the time idk what the deal is with that. its just visual though

[neon bay]

THe corvette spawning inside your base thing when you warp to it needs to be fixed lol

[wraith quiver]

dude yeah

[empty turtle]

Definitely

[wraith quiver]

like why is there a spaceship parked in my living room.

[empty turtle]

That looks good

[wraith quiver]

tried that same style on my cockpit kinda but had to get rid of the bottom. i think that looks good

[sleek oasis]

these look real good here upside down

[wraith quiver]

hopefully it doesnt clip

[sleek oasis]

no

[wraith quiver]

those pieces seem to take up more space than they show. they have an invisible bumpable area around them

[sleek oasis]

looks clean

[wraith quiver]

damn the black tip above it makes that look so good

love when things work out like that

[empty turtle]

I agree 100%

Looks really good

[sleek oasis]

might cut the diffusers under it tho

it looks good under the cockpit, but it's too big under the ship itself

like the bad part

[wraith quiver]

try to pull it back

or use the sharper ones

heres how the sharper ones look on mine. but curved fits yours better up top

bottom might look good sharp though

[sleek oasis]

the problem is how low it gets

[wraith quiver]

yeah it does get mad low thats why its so hard sometimes to decorate undersides

[hollow coral]

That looks cool

[tender kettle]

I was just thinking do you think hello games knows that internal stairs on a ship are called ladders at least in the US navy.

[sleek oasis]

and I can't glitch them half a block up either really

[hollow coral]

I made a UNSC Friget ship

[wraith quiver]

that metallic orange looks so good

[smoky dawn]

Asymmetrical ship!!

That looks sick

[wraith quiver]

when i first painted it it looked gold but i love the orange so much more

thanks man!

[rare echo]

I only have one corvette but my only option when building a new one is swap, I thought you could have 4?

[sleek oasis]

maybe some landing gear here instead of thrusters

[smoky dawn]

I gave asymmetry a shot a week or two ago, here’s what I came up with

[sleek oasis]

looks good

[wraith quiver]

so your starships and corvettes take the same slots. so if you want, salvage a starship to make room for another corvette

[rare echo]

Aight

[hollow coral]

yet they seriously need to fix the lag issue with the Habitations Module so it won't lag people badly

[wraith quiver]

i wonder how the leg thrusters would look right there. the rotating landing gear ones.

[wraith quiver]

oh hell yeah thats neato

[smoky dawn]

Or if you have a freighter you can archive other starships (not corvettes though)

[wraith quiver]

yeah i think im gonna make another asymmetrical rn but a HUGE one

[sleek oasis]

I hate it unfortunately

[wraith quiver]

well huge for me.

[slow harbor]

What class is this?

[daring heron]

if i change corvette hab, will it also change interior?

[wraith quiver]

yes

[daring heron]

i mean want to replace it

[ivory heart]

hows the bridge window so far?

[neon bay]

bird of prey

[stark harness]

a weird class im calling "personal transport ships"

[wraith quiver]

so much dedication here lol

[stark harness]

like the serenity from firefly

[smoky dawn]

What class would the thingamabob be

[ivory heart]

bridge spar of the lake what is your wisdom?
Use a CIC

[slow harbor]

I'd say it's an explorer class, or something like that

[ivory heart]

thanks lol

[ivory heart]

def strikes me as an exploration vessel

perhaps a science exploration one

[stark harness]

defintely explorer!

[ivory heart]

small hauler, perhaps a transport vessel?

[neon bay]

Sir, do you mind telling me what you're doing in No Man's Sky?

[slow harbor]

Fun fact, that ship crossed Euclid twice, so explorer fits on all fronts

CMS Verdant Venture is the name

[smoky dawn]

Oh it sent twice

[ivory heart]

Mister Chofe is that you?

[neon bay]

Yeah it looks like master chief's helmet as a corvette (very cool)

[daring heron]

ambassador class hab is so buggy

[ivory heart]

heck if you wanna help, some ideas for internal rooms would be nice 😅

[smoky dawn]

Someone earlier said it looked like a hexbug, but I see the master chief connection

[ivory heart]

i have hangar bay and reactor room, no idea what else to add

[wraith quiver]

probing room.

[slow harbor]

yeah, radar thingies

[ivory heart]

💀

[slow harbor]

on my Verdant Venture i have:

• 6 habs worth of growing interstellar crops and reality glitches
• 2 personal crew quarters
• observation deck
• smelter room
• mission center
• cargo bay
• lower deck(currently an exhibition of stuff)

[daring heron]

this is why i need to replace ambassador class hab, not just buggy, everthing is white like mental asylum room

[slender escarp]

my contribution to the mech class of corvettes

[ivory heart]

🤣 this is the spaghetti scaffolding it took to place just 2 of those structural shields

[daring heron]

everthing is possible

[ivory heart]

even somebody giving me 500 sodium randomly while i build?

[sleek oasis]

I'm glad at least before bed I got to find a decent looking front for now, gonna continue tomorrow I'm to sleepy

[ivory heart]

lol

[runic bluff]

Came up with this from parts I found on a fresh save, just slapped together to get myself a Corvette ASAP

[runic bluff]

Seeing this reminded me of my other save tbh

[stark harness]

what do you guys think of this as a way to disguise the sides of my engine room?

[ivory heart]

great

[stark harness]

arg, somehow the big engines feel too exposed???

[ivory heart]

yeah they have a cutoff bit

not structurally sound so it looks off

if you can, try putting something in front of them

[stark harness]

i havent done those parts yet

[ivory heart]

i think that will fix the engines looking too exposed

[pale valve]

Wish corvettes had one more row for mods.

[sleek oasis]

Just add the quarter cylinders and you're good

[ivory heart]

LOL

[slender escarp]

for some reason some of the jets/boosters I added to my ship wont start up/turn on. does anyone know why this is happening? do i need a certain number of reactors attached per jets?

[sleek oasis]

Like the ones here @stark harness it should come out clean once both the above and under engines are done

[ivory heart]

the amount of light emitters allowed by the game is quite low, thats likely your problem

turning your graphics settings up will probably help, but its a visual issue not a "your thrusters arent working" one

oh yeah i think that bridge looks great so far

it took me a while to get something that didnt look bad for the hull

[sleek oasis]

I wanna make a n-1 starfigter but I don't have the patience to make it work

[slender escarp]

everytime I start my ship and take flight 2 of the thrusters wont fire up, and its a different 2 (of like the 6-8 total) each time 😭

[ivory heart]

yup

[buoyant orchid]

you can hide it inside a linkage or something. Idk how easy it is, like if I simply got lucky, but my first corvette has an embedded cockpit.

[ivory heart]

i saw that ping

[stark harness]

hmmmmmmm

[buoyant orchid]

🤣
Yeah idk how that happened lol sorry

[buoyant orchid]

Btw, I saw people speaking of classes in a different sense, but what dictates the letter class of the corvettes we build? 🤔

[ivory heart]

i dont think there is a letter class

bro has posted that 3 times in a row now

with no discussion either

#nms-showcase-corvettes

[nimble stirrup]

@grave quest Let's not spam please

Also keep in mind this channel is for NMS Discussion. Photo-dumps should go in #nms-showcase-corvettes

[faint ledge]

pretty sure u can upgrade with nanites at outfitting thing in space stations like a normal ship

[lunar dove]

some of you guys are just too talented

[buoyant orchid]

Just like any ship, you see it when you check inventory. Maybe based on parts used? All basic ones make a C?

[ivory heart]

oh i see

sorry, i C

[lunar dove]

this is what i have rn. not sure how to make it any better

[ivory heart]

its already quite solid

[buoyant orchid]

Good to know, but I wonder if you can straight up build one that ends up not being C. I'm only using basic parts atm.

[neon bay]

What does the class actually mean'? I upgraded mine from C to A and I didn't see any noticeable difference

[faint ledge]

pretty sure its c no matter parts

[buoyant orchid]

Classes always typically mean bonuses to equipment/tech

[faint ledge]

ive used all reactors in a build an it was still a c

[grave quest]

Oops, my bad!

[buoyant orchid]

And advanced parts?

[faint ledge]

aren't all parts basically equal?

[ivory heart]

no, some parts are better than others

you can see the bonus they give in the modules menu in the ship inventory

basic landing gear, for example, do not offer as good of bonuses compared to landing thrusters

[faint ledge]

if thats the case then parts dont matter i think

[ivory heart]

parts do matter in terms of stats

[faint ledge]

yeah of course

[ivory heart]

ive no clue if they change the class of your ship, but i doubt it

[faint ledge]

i meant in terms of class sorry

[dark citrus]

You upgrade the class with nanites like you would with an ordinary starship

[restive token]

Seriously hope they add more stuff to smooth out things with the corvette so certain things dont stick out/show so that you cant tell the ship is a brick from the outside

[lunar dove]

what is happening here?

[ivory heart]

thats a front left view of my corvette currently undergoing construction

front left being the camera position, facing the middle

[lunar dove]

yeah but how do you have those massive panels lol

[ivory heart]

wall panel + scaling feature + a TON of time and pain

[dark citrus]

Not sure how many jets you have, but the max number that will light up is 10 (or was in .3, I am not sure about .4)

[lunar dove]

holy smokes lol

[ivory heart]

ive a hangar bay too! granted its not done yet but the outline is there :P

[lunar dove]

now just imagine if they let us park a starship in there

thatd be peak

[ivory heart]

id settle for an exocraft 😭

[lunar dove]

yup for sure

the thunder landing bay looks perfect for that too

[buoyant orchid]

If they do add bonuses, not just normal stats and capabilities, I would expect them to add to the class rating then - and consider it like a bug if not. You'd think that if enough parts give enough bonuses, the class should end up higher.

[ivory heart]

but look at multitools, they have classes based on what they are, and i dont think adding modules changes their class

[dark citrus]

Nope, multitools also have to be upgraded with nanites

Just like corvettes

[buoyant orchid]

Hmm... I see

[dark citrus]

Upgrading allows you to add more slots

Each class has a maximum

[ivory heart]

lol all this hull modification and super serious design work

still the SDS (super duper ship, ofc) Uwu-Cthulhu

ill need to change that once done

[smoky dawn]

For a while I had a corvette named Goobert

[ivory heart]

also ive done it, i have enough decor to drop from like 55 to 50 average fps 😂

wait nvm its back up? lol

[slender escarp]

I think I was rocking like 12, so I had to rid myself of a couple, but yeah 10 seems to be the cap still

[buoyant orchid]

Which wall panel exactly? Sorry I'm not familiar with all parts yet.

[ivory heart]

i believe it is literally called "wall panel"

you have to research the decoration for it

[stark harness]

changed some parts around
the arcadia blade also works better I think

[ivory heart]

not bad

[buoyant orchid]

Ok thanks, So it's an interior decoration. And if I don't see it with my mods, I'll need the blueprint then.

[ivory heart]

yes, interior decoration you need to research the blueprint for.

custom control room time!

[buoyant orchid]

[buoyant orchid]

I'm not finding it on the wiki. At your leisure, please confirm the name if you could. 🙏

In the meantime I've discovered some base parts don't exist anymore. How evil of Hello Games! I wonder why they had to remove parts. May use a save editor eventually to activate some. 😏

[ivory heart]

NOOOOOOOO

its "Flat panel"

[ivory heart]

dw you arent blind i am merely a goofy goober

ok you wanna know some pure bs?

[buoyant orchid]

Haha no biggie, you already said it was as best as you could rememeber. Thank you so much. I see it.

[ivory heart]

that table on the right is tall enough to walk under, but nope wont let you. That cargo frame on the left is tall enough to walk through, but nope wont let you

this view has SO much potential

[buoyant orchid]

Yeah I've noticed the hit boxes...

[ivory heart]

but nope hitboxes

[buoyant orchid]

I have some equipment just barely protruding from under a hab module... Can't walk over lol

[ivory heart]

yup lmao

it sucks because im not just relying on them for deco, but for my actual hull

im going to go see if i can research any other options for my bridge.. bridge (walkway lol)

[buoyant orchid]

"Just" add a walkable segment in-between. 😅 Keep this for visuals lol

[ivory heart]

?

if i have the structural bracings then the middle becomes entirely obstructed and unwalkable, i cannot keep it for visuals

[buoyant orchid]

Yeah I know, would need a literal workaround— I mean walk-around lol

[ivory heart]

oh, yeah theres no room for a walk around ;P

its ok though i have other ideas

[buoyant orchid]

So those are totally custom built walls/structure right? Just an open space you're enclosing yourself?

[ivory heart]

wh, what are you doing step ladder??

lol

[ivory heart]

to do this would make the bridge's external shape no longer pleasing to observe

WAIT

no way

these are decorations so i think they would just work out of the box 🤣

though they wouldnt be as good as panels directly, they would allow me to make rough internal shapes more easily to then cover with internal decor

[buoyant orchid]

[ivory heart]

ah nvm they are classed as deco but arent in the ship menu

false alarm rip

[neon bay]

WATCHOUT WATCHOUT WATCHOUT corvette jumps from top step

[tulip zealot]

Yeah a few things would fit corvettes but aren't available legitimately
I wanted to put a crane on an open corvette and spend a good few minutes searching

[buoyant orchid]

Another new guide on using base parts and rotating the un-rotatable, like Habs.

https://youtu.be/FrbetZzNSZ0

Note: requires settlement
Warning: rotations can crash game if not corrupt saves. Back up often.

looks really cool

[ivory heart]

custom bridge coming along slowly

[ivory heart]

thanks lol

im unsure how i will go down from the bridge into the main hull
maybe a spiral staircase?

[pliant sparrow]

I see your ship's coming along well

good job! :D

[ivory heart]

thanks :D

it costs sooo much sodium 😩

[tawdry falcon]

what yall think

[stark harness]

The urge to not add more habs just because I have the space in my design 😔

[ivory heart]

nice and pointy

[hardy oracle]

Hey, that's pretty cute! Looks like the little brother of my ship! I call mine the Cradle of Cosmic Coincidence

[calm cloud]

has anyone had one of their ships replaced entirely by someone elses before lol

[hardy oracle]

Yes, I had it happen once during a multiplayer session with a friend. Somehow their ship ended up overwriting my corvette. I kept the name but the ship itself was now a fighter. I got my ship back after a reload to an earlier save though. It was still overwritten in the autosave but the restore point was fine.

[calm cloud]

yea checking if i can do that now

thats weird

[hardy oracle]

Since then I've kept comprehensive backups. Just in case.

Only happened that one time though, but one time was scary enough

I ended up scrapping that ship anyway, but I didn't know that at a time.

[buoyant orchid]

I shall make sure my base can accommodate such graceful beasts. 🙏

[calm cloud]

man that was my fav ship ;-;

got it back by going to a backup, only lost like 12 mins phew

[hardy oracle]

Yay!

I'm sure you'd have made it even better in the next iteration, but losing all that effort would have been painful

[calm cloud]

my sheila

[orchid pilot]

Hey does anyone know how to make good jet like wings?

[calm cloud]

which type?

[orchid pilot]

I was just thinking either classic jet wings or those reverse ones you usually see in sci-fi jets I was wondering since I jsit got the corvette update today

[calm cloud]

u can do some nice wings like the F35 style by bugging habs or connectors

[zealous willow]

Man i need some lesson's on corvette building from some of you guys

[stark harness]

too many repeated shapes??

im unsure

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[ivory heart]

Be sure to stock cookies

And spare warthogs

[ivory heart]

Yes but only due to its scale, its too much repetition per volume

Make it bigger or reduce repetition to solve

[indigo summit]

Big agree. Coincidentally, has anyone managed a Nostromo build?

[twilit knoll]

Michelangelo

[indigo summit]

Heroes in a half shell

[twilit knoll]

🫶

[ivory heart]

And here we see a rare sighting of an endangered species

[gritty glade]

tortl

[stark harness]

I just need something to fill this wall......................

[ivory heart]

Reactors? Shields?

[stark harness]

it needs to go with the profile lines tho

@ivory heart how about this?

[ivory heart]

Ey that works

Don't forget a paint job, you can break up similar shapes with color as needed

[stark harness]

ooo yeah!

[tiny sail]

Anyone here know to glitch the landing gear on a corvette to place higher than the floor?

[ivory heart]

Not 100% certain but try setting ur fps cap to 30, turn on like 4 tabs with yt videos, set to borderless, then flick from a valid to an invalid position and click at the new position quickly

[viral hull]

everyone with these cool giant corvettes... meanwhile

[ivory heart]

This method works well for placing things out of normal bounds and will likely work for your situation

[viral hull]

i will take my half hab and go

[ivory heart]

Tie interceptor at home:

[viral hull]

[tiny sail]

Thank I’ll try

[viral hull]

it could fit on the small landing pads in the stations, they should let me land there

[ivory heart]

They should let us build frigates like corvettes..

Then let us hire npcs to use our own corvette designs

[viral hull]

also the back of it looks like a face which makes me happy

goofy ah corvette

[ivory heart]

Poggers ship

[tiny sail]

I’m trying to place landing gear on it 😢 I don’t understand how to move the landing gear up.

[viral hull]

hmmm im not sure if u can

[olive marlin]

Do the corvette weapons swivel/rotate?

[viral hull]

nuh uh

[olive marlin]

Shucks

[viral hull]

not until they add gunner seats for friends (please)

[primal dagger]

Do I hear Warframe mechanics lmao

[tiny sail]

😭

[viral hull]

thrusters dont snap onto objects

they snap to the ground

[cedar pagoda]

Are floating thrusters possible?

[viral hull]

as far as i know, no

[primal dagger]

Yes, to an extent.

[viral hull]

mag field thrusters dont count!

wait

do the thunderbird ones attach to objects

[indigo summit]

Duality of man

[viral hull]

they do count as both engines and thrusters categorally...

whether that means anything or not iunno

i try

nope

dam

[cedar pagoda]

‎‎‎‎:(

[stark harness]

woops
almost forgot this isnt showcase

[tiny sail]

I found a video where it should me how to save without landing gear 😋

[fervent mist]

Is 4 supercharge slots rare on corvette?

I got one but not in perfect square formation

[solar oasis]

Definitely not common

[tulip zealot]

Is there a way to fix a bug where a specific piece vanishes after i finish modifying the shup?
It's still considered there but is invisible and has no hitbox

[glad oar]

Is it possible to put a landing pad for starship on a corvette?

[solar oasis]

Not without using mods

[glad oar]

Imma cry

Well if I did it on pc?

[tulip zealot]

Or some very unstable glitches

[glad oar]

And someone helped me

[glad oar]

What makes it unstable

[solar oasis]

I’m not sure. My entire corvette vanished on me earlier today and the game isn’t registering that I have one anymore

[glad oar]

Did you just complete the expedition?

[solar oasis]

I completed it earlier today yea

[tulip zealot]

I saw a video on it and the guy said it can cause crashes and used to be able to corrupt saves before the first patch

[glad oar]

How do I rename a corvette

Nvm

[tulip zealot]

It's only the narrow rounded slope
Forgot the name but the wide version still works

[wispy abyss]

Did someone ever had the problem where the interior ledder is only 2/3 of its original size?

[glad oar]

How old is the video though

[tiny sail]

I did it 🥰 @ivory heart

[solar oasis]

That looks awesome!

[tiny sail]

Thank you want to see my first corvette??

[solar oasis]

Sure!

[wispy abyss]

It came out a little short, I think. 😄

[solar oasis]

Huh interesting bug

[tiny sail]

I used this for everything. Mobile base

[solar oasis]

Nice! Looks menacing

[tulip zealot]

https://youtu.be/FrbetZzNSZ0?si=MjHhRIHzrOWDPmIA

[tiny sail]

that’s what my cousin said lol

[wispy abyss]

It fixed itself when restarting the game.

[solar oasis]

Nice!

Now if only I can get my corvette to re appear

I really liked the way it looked and i did it all in normal mode! Bummed that it bugged out on me

[stark harness]

Wait a piece is causing a crash?
Is it only in the expedition

Nothing to do with the expedition or crashes
This piece seems to be bugged for me
I can place it just fine but when i press "finish modifying" it vanishes but is still "present"
It takes up a snap slot and only appears again when i click on it again

[stark harness]

Ooooooh

Weird

[unreal zodiac]

Hey does anyone know why my corvette isn't loading in after the expedition I've tried summoning it everywhere the icon appears but not the ship

Nevermind I've figured it out when I coppied it after the expedition it bugged out saying I did but it didn't so I had to re-copy it

But now the only problem is I have a copy of nothing and a copy of the actual one

[pale zodiac]

do you stuff up your corvette with mods/extras until UI telling you its too much or do you dont care?

[jagged olive]

how do you increase the rating of your corvette?

or is it always gonna stay as a c class

[neon bay]

nanite upgrade at the starship upgrade terminal in stations

[uncut marten]

how can I make the middle platform have a hole like that?

glitch build?

[neon bay]

you can also use starship inventory upgrades on your corvette

[uncut marten]

hello? why does it always feel like I'm abandoned when asking

bruh

[strange fiber]

Banned the user thanks whoever tagged us

[jagged olive]

oh ok thank you

[uncut marten]

yw

[uncut marten]

pls

[tulip zealot]

Found another bug by accident
Set autopilot to station
Didn't realize it was behind me so the pulse failed because of station proximity
Now the pulse engine startup sound is stuck and it's LOUD

Countdown is also stuck even when I leave the pilot seat

[uncut marten]

restart from save point not even changing helps

changing ships*

[tulip zealot]

I like the ambassador interiors but why do the doorways so often glitch out like this?

[pale zodiac]

isnt it just that?

[neon bay]

Because NMS has so many bugs in the code not even cyber-Helldivers could do anything about it

[tulip zealot]

Oh yeah
I keep finding more bugs just inspecting other corvettes on the anomaly
Getting launched off the entrance ramp
Accidentally getting kidnapped because a corvette that was overlapping with mine takes off
Full corvettes disappearing while i'm on it only to reappear and suddenly i'm stuck in a wall

[fading skiff]

is it possible to movie a piece like halfway forward but on the same level ?

[winter vault]

Trying to figure out what pieces would go best for the nose and the top.

[orchid blade]

the uhhhhhh... SR 71... if it can even be called that xD

[signal flare]

Blackbird-class corvette

[orchid blade]

i think i made the cockpit too long xD

[winter vault]

How does this look?

[orchid blade]

damn, i wish i had as many pieces as you

[winter vault]

This is over give or take 6 hours of piece grinding. This is my 2nd corvette

[orchid blade]

holy crap

whats the hab layout, out of curiosity?

[winter vault]

It's Two long, and I believe 3 out?

3 across**

[orchid blade]

so

---

---

?

[winter vault]

And then I have some walkways and stuff to help round it out

[rancid lichen]

Why are some decor on my Corvettes randomly disappearing??

[winter vault]

its

[rancid lichen]

Between game sessiins

[winter vault]

--

Thats the hab layout

[orchid blade]

oh, like a plus sign?

oh, i getcha

[winter vault]

Yeah.

I'm trying to find good pieces to stand out for the top and make it less flat but that hasn't been easy tbh

[abstract crow]

| | |_

Makes for a great hab setup, personally

[pale zodiac]

bigsad

[orchid blade]

have you tried supercruiser or speedbird cowlings on the top?

[winter vault]

Not sure let me check

[orchid blade]

also, should i choose my colour scheme before making it?

[winter vault]

I should've tbh

I've actually been considering the supercruiser on top it looks alright. I just don't know what I should pair it with

[orchid blade]

pair how? like the edge ones? or for behind it?

[winter vault]

Either behind it or between it.

[misty sparrow]

anyone have some tips for making asymmetrical ships?

[pale zodiac]

build it 😄

[orchid blade]

what about supercruiser in the middle, and its aerofoil next to it. with longshore or turbine behind?

[lucid helm]

Don't be symmetrical.

[abstract crow]

Make one side longer than the other

[flat junco]

Is there a way to make the corvette door stay closed after landing or nah?

[winter vault]

I'll give that a try.

You can interact with the door switch from the outside. It's close enough for the interaction prompt to show.

[winter vault]

Alr I think I found what I want

[orchid blade]

nice! i like the scafolds

[winter vault]

Ty ty. It took a fat minute to test and see what pieces I wanted.

[pliant spade]

you lost me with that one

[pseudo charm]

Thoughts here about the front? I am thinkin I need to move the cockpi forward?

[slow harbor]

2/3 of the TIE Defender

[lament turret]

I like the front the way it is

[zealous willow]

Whats the best way to farm corvette parts? Just scanning for them on salvageable planets or is there another way?

[knotty ore]

You can obtain corvette parts from

• digging up on planets
• destroying ships such as pirates
• exploring derilect freighters and extracting from terminal at end of freighter
• trading in parts you don't want at the terminal at a space station

[serene venture]

Hey how do I delete a Corvette? I built one I saw online and then yeah after finishing it and flying around I realized I didn't like it much. Tried to just go in and delete all the parts but yeah exiting the creating menu just brought the whole ship back.

[zealous willow]

Isnt there an option on the terminal to start over?

[zealous willow]

Aight, thanks

[serene venture]

Oh is there? I must have missed that lmao

[zealous willow]

Lmao

[knotty ore]

Back out of your edit without actually saving it and then use the terminal again and there will be an option to start edits fresh again

[buoyant orchid]

Push it back and hide inside a linkage 😏

[serene venture]

Okay cool ty

[knotty ore]

But in order to get rid of a corvette entirely, you will need to exchange it for an npc's ship and then scrap that other ship

[buoyant orchid]

You take that back!

[serene venture]

Ah okay I think I'll have to do that then since I finalized and flew it around already

[wheat atlas]

How can I disguise/hide my corvette reactor? It looks really out of place

[serene venture]

Simple but I guess last night my brain just didn't think of that XD

[buoyant orchid]

@wheat atlas What's wrong with building around it?

Some engine pieces can merge nicely with reactors if you place temporary habs to attach to.

[knotty ore]

You can always re-edit an existing corvette and strip all the parts you want to keep. You only need to keep these parts installed

• 1 landing gear
• 1 landing bay
• 1 thruster
• 1 hab module
• 1 reactor
• 1 cockpit
• 1 weapon

[wheat atlas]

I don't have enough parts to build around it

[buoyant orchid]

Well then that's your problem 😅
Or if you can't hide it, show it off lol

[knotty ore]

I personally use the Medusa one and use it along the front end of my ship since it is somewhat rounded and fits in somewhat

[runic bluff]

For digging up on planets, look for planets that have "Salvage Containers." If you already have a basic corvette, you can get out of the pilot's seat while the Corvette is hovering to scan for Containers, mark one, then use the photon cannon's aoe to break it without ever leaving your ship

[knotty ore]

"Salvagable Scrap"

[cold charm]

Important: FIgured out what causes me to lose corvettes in multiplayer. summoning another ship or a freighter for some reason turns my corvette into a regular ship everytime i was able to replocate it and lost my corvette twice

[runic bluff]

Yeh that. I was thinking of what they're called through the scanner

[severe parrot]

Anyonr who saw the player who built a floating island is the grass a real unlockable part or a mod

[knotty ore]

Lmao I was just going off what it says from orbit and such

[buoyant kiln]

I wish devs would make some kind of "Pilot's seat" thing so you don't always have to place the cockpit part

[buoyant orchid]

I for one want that AND multiple cockpits lol

[zealous willow]

Wait that works? Damn

[raven jewel]

How do i change the weapon type of a corvette? Placed only the deadeye weapons, but tech slots still say its cyclotron

[knotty ore]

I just want a few bigger pieces. Maybe a slightly larger cockpit and a bigger hab option

[knotty ore]

Cyclotron comes from rocket pods, do you have those installed as parts?

[raven jewel]

nope

[knotty ore]

Try getting rid of everything and installing a single photon cannon, or try reloading your game

Other than that, I haven't heard of this issue yet so idk honestly

[raven jewel]

reloaded, and was able to dismantle the cyclotron

weird

but thanks

[knotty ore]

Glad to hear you figured it out. I will have to watch out for that issue when I get around to rebuilding my corvette now that I have all the parts

[pseudo charm]

will give it a try! 🙂

[mild crest]

how would i make something like this? is there a glitch method to make doors sideways

[buoyant orchid]

Warning, that means you'll have to teleport in, and have artefacts when piloting lol. Maybe a hab could be better if possible.

[buoyant orchid]

Afaik, rotating things that can't rotate 90° is possible but is risky, needs a settlement, can cause crashes if not corruption

[sage wolf]

I finally figured out how to do the wire glitch on corvettes (where normally you can't switch to wiring mode while "holding" a non wire part) and just as I was perfecting it, I lost power in real life lmao

[buoyant orchid]

Beeblebum just released a video on it.

[sage wolf]

If anyone wants to know how to do it, ping me and I'll do my best to explain it on mobile

[mild crest]

oof, i'll have to probably just have it be open with that one hab glitch

maybe ill use parts to make it kinda look like a door

[sage wolf]

If you're on pc, get the beyond base building mod and just use regular doors

[buoyant orchid]

🤓

[mild crest]

i play unmodded with my friend

[sage wolf]

Fair, although beyond base building mod is multiplayer safe; your friend can still see the parts you use even if they're on console

[mild crest]

oh sweet

ill prolly install it later then

[wheat atlas]

What does ranking up your shipdo?

[buoyant orchid]

? You know another way of turning or opening a hab?

[mild crest]

i mean doing the landing door thing to have the area where you can walk through

[raw wraith]

I will say it might have risk.

There is a non-mod method to glitch base parts onto your corvette. But it CAN corrupt your save, and apparently, that of anyone seeing your corvette at the moment your save is corrupted.

If that can happen in the base game, it might be possible with the mod.

[mild crest]

i think it was in pinned or sent here before

[knotty ore]

Allows for more slots in the tech tab, allowing for more tech to be installed, as well as allowing a higher max cargo capacity

[sage wolf]

I also discovered a trick with that mod in particular that will allow you to perfectly align snapping parts (like habs and walls) to your corvette: basically go into regular build mode on your corvette (not space station corvette editor) and place a corvette refiner on one of the walls. Then select the refiner and press left shift to cycle the part; due to a bug in beyond base building mod, it'll show you freighter parts (although you may have to enable freighter parts in the mod settings). Select a hallway and confirm the swap. Then select the big square hab and you'll see it snaps to the freighter hall. You can then go from there to eventually snap walls using hab hallways. This trick also works with corvette windows

@mild crest

[mild crest]

oh neat

[sage wolf]

This technically isn't required, but it's a way to ensure snapping parts like habs are perfectly symmetrical or centered

[mild crest]

this game has great modding, everything seems so simple

ig cause it uses some lua iirc?

[abstract saffron]

maniofiguri8ne

[sage wolf]

Idk but if the freighter parts don't show up when you press left shift, then you'll have to setup AMMs and rebuild the mod

I can help you with that in #nms-modding after work if needed

It's very easy though; by rebuild i literally mean just running a batch file that does it automatically

[haughty sedge]

I think I got pretty lucky with my corvette sc slots, I just upgraded my ship to S class and one popped up on the right

[slow harbor]

where are corvette modules though

glitched?

[haughty sedge]

i'll be honest, I dont know

[slow harbor]

glitched it is i guess

[haughty sedge]

I did wonder, I assumed it was an intentional thing but I guess not?

[slow harbor]

no

[haughty sedge]

how do I get them back

[slow harbor]

reload save

save and reload

[haughty sedge]

Its been like that for a couple days

[slow harbor]

wha

how even

unless your corvette is a flying thunderbird cockpit

it should recompile when reloading any save/editing build

[haughty sedge]

its definitely all there

thats really odd then if its not intentional, im a bit concerned though 😅

[zealous willow]

Does your corvette remain s class if u remove all parts and rebuild it?

Not like as in you delete it but remove all parts by hand and rebuild it

[haughty sedge]

I would try that but thats so much work to get everything back to how it was 😭

[zealous willow]

Lmao no, dont get me wrong

[knotty ore]

Edit even just a single part and finalize it and see if that fixes it

[zealous willow]

I just noticed it was and was wondering if ur or mine or whoelses corvette remains the class it was if u decide to rebuild it

[haughty sedge]

I added a small hab module and nothing has changed

the only thing corvette-related in my tech slots is the cockpit

[knotty ore]

Yeah, it's probably gonna require a total rebuild of the ship if you actually care about them not being there

If not even scrapping and rebuilding a new one

[haughty sedge]

I can easily farm mould so I could just scrap it and rebuild it

is not having the corvette modules in the tech slots an issue? like will i run into any problems if they arent there?

[orchid blade]

they may contribute to adjacency bonuses. but that'd be it

[zealous willow]

Im wondering if they arent recognized either.. like if the ship still gets the bonuses but the game just doesnt show the modules

[knotty ore]

I wouldn't say it's an issue really cuz the corvette parts only add tech that boosts the base tech. As long as you still have all the base tech (hyperdrive, launch thrusters, etc.) then it shouldn't cause any issues. The only real concern would be that it is apparently a bug that exists in general and could at some point cause more unwanted bugs to happen at any point

[buoyant kiln]

Who knows how can i fix that blue light thingy?
it kinda annoys my eyes

[mild crest]

only solution i can think of is change the trail to something less eye straining

[haughty sedge]

reloading my save after adding the hab module I mentioned

oh they returned

[orchid blade]

its likely just a reflection of the thruster above

edit: tho i dont know why the other side doesnt have it

[knotty ore]

I believe that's a visual bug and would need to be patched. I have also noticed odd visuals with some weapons firing

[haughty sedge]

thats so weird 😭
