[wraith quiver]

ah ok

[south panther]

where woud i get the ballista from

[buoyant kiln]

You don't need exaclty ballista

[hardy oracle]

You just craft it by clicking on a free tech slot. But don't worry if you haven't unlocked it, a photon cannon is fine too

[buoyant kiln]

photon cannon works fine aswell

[neon bay]

I haven't spent a single credit on any of this, just an hour or two of flying around salvage planets collecting parts

[hardy oracle]

Ballista just has the biggest AoE so it's a little bit more convenient. Some salvage is deep enough under ground that photon cannons struggle to pop them

[buoyant kiln]

Ye, and that's more than enough for even a big corvette

[wicked shell]

Oh yeah I got it evened out!

[south panther]

😭

[wicked shell]

even wing offset plus three landing gear in two blocks.

[lone ore]

one thing I didn't know about trading parts until recently is you can offer one part, and if they say no you lose nothing. Also Salvagable scrap is on many planets (you'll see the tag when you scan the planet). you can shoot the scrap from your ship.

[hardy oracle]

That's fine! It's a start

[south panther]

i might move the medusa to where the triangle is

[neon bay]

You can use this to salvage more parts, when you get to a planet with salvage you don't even have to land every time you find a salvage pod, you can just park overhead and beam down to it

[south panther]

thats not terrible

[idle ore]

technically, no you dont need a hub 🙂
you COULD use a loading ramp and a cockpit, thats it

[south panther]

so what do i aim for hitting scrap

[buoyant kiln]

yup.
see? getting it more already

[south panther]

do i just shoot the ground

[buoyant kiln]

Shoot the ground where the scrap mark is

[neon bay]

You use F, look for the yellow wifi symbol markers

[lone ore]

use your visor scanner to find salvage, then shoot the ground there from your ship

[south panther]

i need to close the hatch manually?

[neon bay]

Nope

[rotund geyser]

is there a fix for paint colors reverting after applying edits to corvette?

[buoyant kiln]

Yea, you'll need to paint manually the parts that revert

[rotund geyser]

all of the parts are reverting

[buoyant kiln]

oh

[hardy oracle]

No, but given the context of the question I want to point out that the hatch is in no way involved in salvaging scrap. You do it all from your pilot seat

[buoyant kiln]

well, tried manually?

[fervent mist]

My new corvette with 3013.6 maneuverability. Compact

[wraith quiver]

smoll n chonky

[fervent mist]

You can do more if you go bigger but each hub takes up a tech slot. I only have one landing gear on this one lol. I had to use cowlings to cover the Medusa reactors

[idle ore]

my corvettes all have around 300-600 and are still amazing to fly, corvette in the end are a little heavier. . .

[fervent mist]

Kind of a shame, I had what I thought could be a good idea for a ship design, to make a ship in the shape of a crescent moon 🌙 but so far I can’t get the rounding and angles to look right.

[fervent mist]

So stop stat obsessing and have fun? My corvettes in the low 2000’s fly amazing and I love having 2 floors, I heard every bit of maneuverability helps though

[idle ore]

yes indeet, stats are irrelevant, as you onehit everythign anyways haha

[wraith quiver]

this is my best lol not the best numbers but works fine for me as well

[fervent mist]

Looks cool, mine look way better inside than outside lol

My thrusters took up space.L but I like the propellers

My big ones have big windows and stuff. Was thinking of making ancient fossil floor with the bone collection but not sure it would fit

[wraith quiver]

dorito jet.

[buoyant kiln]

There's isn't really much point in maxing out ships in NMS, even c class chips demolish space pirates

[fervent mist]

So if I enjoy big ships then just enjoy it. Makes sense

[buoyant kiln]

ye

[wraith quiver]

honestly yeah i dont really care much for the stats. im really just building in creative and then if anything ill "tune" it with the grind.

[fervent mist]

I thought the maneuver stat makes a b huge difference in how it flies

I’ll keep this one as my dorm room stat trophy corvette but probably use the others

[wraith quiver]

im sure it does but i mean i dont care to be OP when im in survival mode lol

everythings so easy tbh so i dont mind shit stats

[neon bay]

It does, lower manoeuvrability makes it the ship feel sluggish when you're turning

[fervent mist]

What does maneuver do exactly? Will I be better at fighting pirates? Am I faster? Better turn radius?

Ok but does 2k and 3013 make a difference?

[wraith quiver]

i think pulse power is speed and maneuverability is like turn radius and roll speed ersumshit

[neon bay]

Better turn radius and ability to slow down/speed up

[wraith quiver]

yeah maneuverability is more of changing directions and snappiness, pulse power i think is the actual top speed

[fervent mist]

I see, and if you go bigger you are gonna be slower right? I can always delete a hub too or will my tech slot be taken?

[neon bay]

Cash money

[fervent mist]

You sell those right? Or can you install it?

[south panther]

sell or trade

1,8mil

[fervent mist]

Ok, yeah I been doing that

[neon bay]

Sell, just make sure you're in a system with a positive percentage

Unless there's a specific part you really want

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

[south panther]

hows this

[neon bay]

It's a good start but you should keep gathering

You ideally want 2 or 4 of most things to help make symmetry building easier

[south panther]

i cant craft these or buy eithe

[vivid current]

Found a weird bug with the Corvettes.

When you do the mission to rescue a vette, you don't get the award. They just act like you're a random dude.

[golden radish]

If you're salvage farming might as well add a third thunderbird hab for extra cargo slots

[south panther]

i got one

i didnt even add the stairs

xd

[golden radish]

you have enough units to buy it, fyi

[lone ore]

I never had a vette rescue mission, only freighters

[vivid current]

No, I mean you're in a corvette, rescuing a freighter. They no long award you if you're in a corvette.

[lone ore]

ah, I've done that many times in my vette, works for me

[vivid current]

Weird. I come in to land and the ping on the captain disappears.

[golden radish]

you mean the freighter pirate attack event on warping-in system then, right?

[lone ore]

oh I never get a ping for the captain. But if I speak with them I get the dialog to either buy the ship or claim a reward

[vivid current]

Really? Got some testing to do later. I was getting awards doing those up until my corvette was built. I haven't flown my old starship since.

[meager geyser]

Anyone else's landing gear now not retracting ?

[supple fjord]

hatches are still super broken and open / close / get stuck at random

sigh

[vivid current]

You land your corvette? I just jump out. Quicker and saves space on upgrading launchers that much. If you're low enough a teleporter will pop out under it. I've had it bug out a few times where I could only land at a space station. Reloading my save almost always fixed it.

[vivid current]

And yes. Those aren't paying out. Tells me to go to ship, approach captain, gives option to purchase freighter, nothing about awards for saving them.

[meager geyser]

They are even out when flying

[obsidian grotto]

Rate the design of The Valorum Chancelor

[small plaza]

Hmm

[obsidian rover]

@thorn cypress i mightve had too many parts inside, but idk why the entrances, floors, and landing gear kept breaking

[abstract crow]

I made a more compact corvette than my usual designs. Problem is, it's back to my typical chonky designs again.

[small plaza]

I need around 13 habs (without calculating the corridors or entry points) and I have no idea how to make an interesting shape with all of them

[wraith quiver]

damn lol 12 is huge

13

[neon bay]

You could try stacking them vertically somehow

[wicked shell]

its gonna be tiny I swear

[thorn cypress]

🙁 Yeah, I don't know what to tell you. THat corvette looks pretty clean

[obsidian rover]

it really does suck though

[true crater]

Hello, need help here. It seems like every time I apply all color to my corvette and apply it, the color only change for one parts

[obsidian rover]

i had to replace the landing gear with the thrusters and all the hab and walkways with tian class

still looks decent

i just like ambassador more

[thorn cypress]

Yeah- I feel you. I feel like HG does a pretty good job at addressing bugs quickly though.

[small plaza]

Do short range teleporters work on Corvettes?

[neon bay]

Eve Online moment?

[wraith quiver]

nope

[small plaza]

Fuck

Imagine needing to go up and down 13 stories every time you want to salvage

[wraith quiver]

thats why all my ships are small im too lazy for that

[small plaza]

I place a thunderbird class landing bay behind the cockpit. It has a regular hab outside, so it fits in well

That way you can just tp to the surface even if you have a large ship

Only a couple steps away from the cockpit

[neon bay]

The Thunderbird landing bay is more glitchy than the others I find

[small plaza]

It is what it is

[neon bay]

I want to see this landed on a planet

[quaint stag]

Like a hot knife through butter

[small plaza]

I guess Maulus would be the most appropriate sized to NMS

[kind thistle]

i have a corvete crew is this guy good for corvete?

[small plaza]

You have fucking what

[wraith quiver]

.. didnt know you could have a corvette crew lmfao

[small plaza]

What does he even do on a corvette? Sweep the floors?

[neon bay]

I also did not know you could have Corvette crews

[lyric halo]

Might be an ugly duckling hodge podge of a ship but she's mine

[idle ore]

H O W

[lyric halo]

Plus it has 2 beds, nutrient processor, garden thing, mission board and 4 cargo holds

[pseudo charm]

Unfortunately no. I tried. Ugh.

[hardy oracle]

I think it's the same for everyone, probably. Seems like an unfinished feature

[small plaza]

You fit 4 cargo holds in that thing? Damn, must be the same tech as Tardis

[idle ore]

the same goes for TEXT MODULES they dont woprk either. .

[pseudo charm]

As long as it does what you want, that’s the best thing ever!

[lyric halo]

Comfortably

[kind thistle]

this one is looking for my nipnip

[lyric halo]

I'll take some in ship shots shortly but have to transfer the pics from my switch

[true crater]

gotcha, seems like they add some feature to at least make the checking easier

[neon bay]

Again

H O W

[kind thistle]

mods of course i can place npc in my base everywhere i want

[sleek oasis]

hows the left side/wing looking?

[small plaza]

[wooden flint]

i can fish from my Corvette's landing bay!!! this changes everything...

[solid pond]

Sus. Very sus.

[sleek oasis]

@wraith quiver changed the wings

[wraith quiver]

damn that looks REAL good.

def got away from that classic ufo look lol

your part selection has like no secondary color lol its so clean i love it so far

those thrusters im gonna have to steal or make something similar

[neon bay]

TIL you can salvage the internal cargo pods from the random encounter derelict freighters in space using a corvette

[neon bay]

what are those cable linkages?

[lyric halo]

Q@small plaza that's how it fits

[sleek oasis]

hanging lights

[wraith quiver]

you gonna bytebeat cable it ?

[idle ore]

I HOPE they fix the bug with "base out of range" i can literally not buiuld my corvette...

[sleek oasis]

already there

[neon bay]

The scale is a little off though

[wraith quiver]

oh shit im blind

[sleek oasis]

might put two more on each side to have 3, idk yet

[small plaza]

Try spinning, I hear it's a good trick

[sleek oasis]

oh nice the byte beat boxes snap to each other, nice

too much?

[neon bay]

Corvette salvaging a derelict freighter is such a vibe

[mossy widget]

Does anyone know if it allows multiple people to sit in the pilot seat of the corvette if you have multiple cockpits, mine has two?

[wraith quiver]

that looks dope to me

[mossy widget]

(I used the service bot to merge my existing corvette with another corvette)

[wicked shell]

18 blocks in the space of 2 blocks lol

[sleek oasis]

this looks pretty good, gonna rock it like that I think

[mild stratus]

Welp I got my side entrances......but at what cost 😭😭😭😭

[fervent mist]

Does the hatch close?

[mild stratus]

Yea the hatches still close

[snow topaz]

hello my corvette 🙂

[neon bay]

#nms-showcase-corvettes is the channel for posting showcases

[sleek oasis]

might have the engine covered like this, it looks better than with the regular engine covers but not sure if its worth it with how it clips through

[snow topaz]

oh ok thnx 🙂

[hardy oracle]

That clipping is a little awkward, do you need the upper thruster? Maybe you can just hide it somewhere inside the ship?

[sleek oasis]

it looked like this before swapping the covers

[wicked shell]

okay the engine is done

[rocky ginkgo]

Highest maneuverability without sacrificing other things (i can probably go more but this is even more then my sentinel)

[abstract crow]

I inadvertently stumbled across a potentially devastating glitch with my largest corvette. I went to dock at a station at an angle, and my ship bounced around at the entry point. When it went to land, it glitched backwards for a bit, "landed", and did the turn around thing. Problem was, it turned around outside the station and got glitched where the robot controlling the station was. Trying to exit got me stuck like I was in space. Thank God for the mod that let's me place base items so I could TP out, but be wary those of you with longer ships.

[sleek oasis]

kinda looks more awkward without

[manic river]

How do the new pieces look like

Anyone pls😭

[mossy widget]

What have I done...?

[small plaza]

Okay

The turret firing thing is kinda fixed

They don't fire all at once

But the photon cannon cycles through all the barrels

My current corvette has 6 turrets for example. Each side of the turrets fire in rotation

[lyric halo]

If I remodel my corvette and my storage units get unmade will they still have the stuff I stored in them when I rebuild them?

[small plaza]

They most likely will

But uh

I wouldn't test it

I just made a second corvette from only the most base essential stuff, put 4 cargo, and put all the items there

It's shared between corvettes and base

So even if that corvette stays as it is you don't need to move the items to access them

[lyric halo]

See I started a fresh save, hence the Hodge podge ship

Think I've moved to my 2nd system

[stark harness]

I hope they fix that bug causing my corvette tech slots to rearrange themselves

[fervent mist]

It’s why I screen shot my ship slots before making any changes

[kind thistle]

on my corvete can land smaller ships but why does the small ship stay when i move the corvete

[hardy oracle]

Absolutely. No items are stored in storage units. They only serve as an access point for an inventory tied to your character

[neon bay]

Be careful with taking habs apart that have modules attached, the materials can go into the corvette part cache inventory and get locked in there

[small plaza]

OKAY.

ALL 6 PHASE BEAM TURRETS FIRE AT THE SAME TIME

And it's glorious

[hardy oracle]

Disco time

[neon bay]

[small plaza]

Hah. My noob polaron build in Star Trek Online had like 6 different coloured polarons

It was great

[neon bay]

HAH GAYYYYEEE

[small plaza]

It was disco

Subspace Rhapsody moment

[small plaza]

BassMarck

GOT IT

[abstract crow]

Needs moar

[pure dust]

Evening, can anyone give me a ride in her / his corvette?

[small plaza]

Actual cap is probably 10 like engines

[neon bay]

The pirate you're targeting:

[small plaza]

They don't like gifs here

[abstract crow]

Then 10 is what you need

[neon bay]

I had to send the gif in a different server and then screengrab it

[small plaza]

Lmao

[abstract crow]

And then get the kid that allows more corvette sfx so you can get even more.

[light wolf]

Has anyone built the A2 Hercules from star citizen yet on no man’s sky?

[small plaza]

I put 12 turrets in a line for testing purposes

Let's see how many of them fire

Actually wait

I know it looks stupid but this is for testing purposes only

7

Cap is 7 Phaser beam turrets

[wicked shell]

max amount of photon cannons I can get working is 2/3

[small plaza]

What build are you on?

They just fixed the turret visuals on Experimental today

I don't hate this design actually

Hmm

[nimble stirrup]

@chilly valve you there

is there a way to extend or bypass corvette building area range

[abstract crow]

You can glitch it. Figure out where you want to build a part that's outside the area (red), look for a nearby area you can actually build that part (green), then, move that part from green to red while hitting the build button/key a millisecond after moving the part.

[normal grove]

Can you expand your tech/regular storage on corvettes?

[small plaza]

Ship upgrade station

Just have your corvette as your active ship and it upgrades like normal

[abstract crow]

The red area needs to be one movement away from the green area to work.

[normal grove]

No, I mean, if you can find the ship storage upgrade things, can they go on corvettes?

[small plaza]

Starship ones? Yes

[spiral prism]

Yes

[normal grove]

Oki, thank you.

[patent slate]

Yes, but you should strip a corvette down to the minimum viable build so as to get the most spaces available for installable technology

Then once you’re happy with the setup add parts

[normal grove]

Mines a relatively simple UNSC pelican model, got like 29 tech slots.. ain't enough. Never enough. Just stepped up from sentinel ship to corvette.. May move my infra-knife pieces over for added kick.

[patent slate]

The pre-installed slots from ship habs can be readily ignored if you max out the expansion slots on your corvette

Unfortunately they cannot be removed from the tech window, which is why I recommend just building the smallest ship with the bare minimum of parts to dump all your upgrades into

Now I have a question regarding commented out/bugged corvette parts - why is there a bathroom part?

There’s literally a toilet in the installable modules

[hardy oracle]

Are you saying that the hab modules increase slots beyond the maximum 60 if upgrades are added first?

[patent slate]

No, they just take up space in the tech grid

[limpid karma]

?

[spiral prism]

Toilet

What now

[patent slate]

Yeah, there’s a unfinished model in the shipbuilding internals called a waste disposal, it takes silver and the poop chemical, and it lacks collision but has appearances for all the ship types

[wicked shell]

bruh I just finished to find out the paint all function does not work at all...

[spiral prism]

Correct

[patent slate]

Is this just for decoration, like the beds and medi-beds?

[patent slate]

Worked for me yesterday on ps5

[spiral prism]

There was another patch which probably broke it

[patent slate]

Oh boy

Wouldn’t be no man’s sky without things breaking and tons of legacy content left over

[wicked dune]

someone know an way to move an piece half an block down/up? normally when you do the offset if moves diagonally to one side or another

[wicked shell]

any work arounds?

[spiral prism]

Just manually painting

[patent slate]

Trial and error, as the building system is very finicky

[minor vault]

i know its not a corvette but what is this shit!?

[patent slate]

Sentinel ship

[wraith quiver]

that one is actually a pretty cool one lol

[minor vault]

i know why is half of it missing

[wicked dune]

looks like my sentinel ship, just different visor, mine has the 3 dots one

[spiral prism]

It is definitely not alive and will not scream if you pull its brain out

[patent slate]

I like the ones with tank treads - but those don’t have a vehicle mode

Sadly

[minor vault]

i just wanted one with wings that looks cool

[patent slate]

Such is the lament of the ship hunter in no man’s sky

And a corvette gripe to be more on topic - there are end cap parts for some of the corvette designs but they aren’t implemented

Also you are sold cargo boxes in some sectors which can’t be used for decor

[wicked dune]

[wicked shell]

Okay well I guess my ship is just going to be orange. Do you think I could change it with a save editor?

[neon bay]

The turbine housing piece is great

[patent slate]

Agreed

[minor vault]

this is the first ever sentinel ship i found on my second save btw

[wicked shell]

I think I have made a monster...

[patent slate]

Also a reminder that you can scale wonder holograms on the outside of your corvette to a very large scale and give people jumpscares

[wicked dune]

damn

[minor vault]

how did you do that?

[wicked shell]

I can offset things by a very small amount hehehe

I have a video I made that shows how I am able to do it linked under my profile.

[patent slate]

Some parts also don’t have the sort of clipping you’d expect and just allow you to stick stuff in the ship greebles

[wicked shell]

I recently found out how to do the sideways offset I show in the vid as well as the three landing gear offset at the same time which is nice

[wicked shell]

It uses three offsets, one for each side and then an offset landing gear. that and hab rotations allows for 18 blocks into the span of two blocks

[patent slate]

Pity you can still run across the 100 part limit that way

[wicked shell]

you could do more but its not needed as you only need 15 blocks to get max stats not counting guns

with guns makes it perfect 18 though I did not use the guns there, I used thrusters to even it out

PLUS it is back to center again

unlike my v4 ship which was not center by a tiny amount

now to slot in all my things to the right tech slots and to upgrade its class and I will have this for stats.

very nice indeed hehe

[wraith quiver]

man i cant wait to find a home planet so i dont have to use my freighter to warp all the time

[wicked shell]

okay we have an issue

the offset of its landing position is like... wayyyyyyy to far back

is issue

[hybrid nest]

so goofy lol

[wicked shell]

I know what caused it and I'm sad now... Every time you iterate the benchy ship back it spawns you further back when parked... This was a modification of my testing ship and has dozens of iterations on it... I need to remake it. Not a big deal tho I know how to make this design now. But still... ;-;

It just means that I will have to remake it with the minimum number of iterations to function.

[hybrid atlas]

W cockpit decorations?

[wicked dune]

wasn't there an way to delete parts of the corvette and allow it to fly with some missing parts?

[wicked shell]

I just had to ram myself into the wall until I clipped through since I was stuck out of bound lol

[golden radish]

bit of an issue, i'm trying to apply colors to all parts of the vette, but once i "apply edits", only the part i highlighted gets colored, the rest keeps its default color

[hybrid atlas]

finally realised i could just slide in a reactor here instead of having a hull linkage..

slid in another behind the thrusters 🤑

if i had another zenith i could make a reactor sandwich

[bitter grotto]

I just looked at one of the earlier patch notes, what and where is a thermal grill cap

genuinely cannot find it in the catalogue

[nimble stirrup]

what platform are you on

also i forgot, which patch did it come out on?

[bitter grotto]

PC

[nimble stirrup]

hmm

[bitter grotto]

I'm gonna double check, it looks like it fits with the speedbird stuff but idk

check around that area

[hybrid atlas]

i cant find it either after checking

yea i dont see it

[golden radish]

FWIW i'm on PC/GoG and i don't see any part looking like that in the catalog

[hybrid atlas]

I'm on PC/Steam and same here

[golden radish]

anyone else have this issue? coloring with "apply to entire corvette" isn't saved once you finalize ("apply edits") the vette

[bitter grotto]

interestingly enough, I can actually find it in the Hull Plating section when trading advanced parts lol

[hybrid atlas]

found that you can trade for this thing

[hybrid atlas]

I was just typing that 😭

[bitter grotto]

baller

[hybrid atlas]

lol

[bitter grotto]

maybe if I trade for it'll pop up idk

I play on free crafting when building corvettes ion have the time or energy to grind out these parts that I have no idea how they'll fit together

I'll grind for it just in case see what happens

[wicked dune]

weird, can't get the glitch to rotate some parts right

[bitter grotto]

you mean the one involving the ducting outlet thingamajig?

[golden radish]

yeah, i traded for one and now it shows up in the catalog

[wicked dune]

like I can rotate the hab that's connected with the stairs, but nothing else

[wicked dune]

honestly having to watch multiple videos about glitchs is getting old

[limpid karma]

i cant seem to find a video detailing how to offset objects horizontally only without vertical movement

[wicked dune]

I just did it lol

[stark harness]

Really hope we get ladders
These stairs are egregious on the 1x1 habs

[wicked dune]

it does move diagonally for half an block, but not up/down

[wraith quiver]

use the rockhopper

flip the rock hopper

then place it half offset

[wicked dune]

you can fix the diagonal movement with the rockhopper

[wraith quiver]

that will help move it from the front to the back idk if thats what you mean

[limpid karma]

i forgot that one

my next build you will like

[wicked dune]

this one

[neon bay]

The stairs in general are just garbage, they're so annoying to use and also just have in your build

[limpid karma]

yep i know about it i just forgot the trick

[neon bay]

Teleporters between levels would be better

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

[golden radish]

you want to offset front/back or sideways?

[wicked dune]

just use the rockhopper propeller module at the right side, it has many snapping points compared to the left side

[limpid karma]

sideways would be nice to know

[wicked dune]

just showed how to move half an block sideways lol

[limpid karma]

thats backwards

[wicked dune]

it does move half an block to the front/back, but you can fix it with the rockhopper propeller

[limpid karma]

i guess thats true

[wicked dune]

look

perfectly half an block to the right, without front/back/up/down movement

[golden radish]

It needs a couple steps:
1 Place any walkway
2 Place trim in the front or back of walkway
3 Move walkway on top of the trim
4 Move trim on a side of walkway
5 Move walkway on top of trim
6 Place Rockhopper Wing Module on the right side of the walkway (when looking from the back of the ship), use the half-size snapping point to place it right
7 Move walkway aligned to rockhopper
8 delete rockhopper and trim

[wicked dune]

I'd post images of it, but probably the bot will warn me lol

[strange horizon]

I hope at some point they make it so you can have an elevator that goes through all of your floors.

[wicked dune]

that'd be nice

[kind glacier]

anyone knows how to turn around the arcadia wing module?

[maiden apex]

im about to buy all the parts for my first corvette, anything i need to know?

[wicked dune]

honestly I'd rather they free the corvette builder more, like allow us to rotate more parts, give us move snapping points, having to abuse bugs after bugs get old

[mossy widget]

Rotate until u get it how u like then flip it

[stark harness]

The issue is that the teleporters are too big. You have to be able to walk by it

A ladder or an elevator like that one descending platform part would work

[kind glacier]

rotating it and flipping it does the exact same thing for me

[strange horizon]

Having a corvette makes farming scrap salvage for more parts much easier. You can leave your pilot seat and scan for stuff without landing.

[mossy widget]

Try in free placement

[wicked dune]

there's no free placement lol

[neon bay]

An elevator could work, I was more thinking of a purpose-made corvette teleporter hab walkway

[golden radish]

@maiden apex To elaborate: the photon cannon can destroy salvage boxes through the ground

[kind glacier]

just tried it. same thing

[strange horizon]

I wish there was. I also wish all parts could be rotated any direction

[stark harness]

Maybe

[wicked dune]

I need some help, I was watching an video about how to move some parts and at one point he explained that placing the stairs backwards with another hab on top of it allow to rotate most parts, but the only part I can rotate is the hab itself

[strange horizon]

I think what it is, is that rotation of the hab lets you place some parts backwards like cockpits

So rather than rotating them they are placed in a rotated position

[wicked dune]

let me check

but on his video it was showing he rotating parts like the deadeye cannon itself, not placing it already backwards

[wraith quiver]

its somethting with the interior ladder in a hab and rotating it

[wicked dune]

yeah already have the hab with an interior ladder rotated, which really allows to rotate the hab, but nothing else

[wraith quiver]

after that you attach the part you needed and it should rotate it for you and then you delete the hab

[wicked dune]

man this makes no sense at all

I'm almost 2h here without placing anything , just oppening videos about glitchs, and trying then out

[wraith quiver]

it be like that sometimes

i cant ever do that glitch on purpose tbh

[wicked dune]

yeah it's kinda annoying, I have somewhat an idea of what I need to do, but no way in hell is possible vanilla

trying to just limit myself to the half block offset trick because everything else is an huge time sink

[sage wolf]

You're supposed to rotate the hab and then put parts on it i guess lol

[wraith quiver]

i just wish i could offset landing gear

[wicked dune]

nope, the dude on the video was rotating the parts freely

[sage wolf]

I use beyond base building so I can remove the hab without removing anything attached to it

[sage wolf]

I'm not sure then

[sage wolf]

What video was it?

[wicked dune]

https://youtu.be/5syfSwxFzp0?t=622

[sage wolf]

Honestly I don't know lol; mod maybe? That or just careful mirror and rotate hot key presses

[tardy bear]

Does the limitless mod for corvette work in game? It doesnt f-up how people see it or it doesnt crash? Thxs🙃 i got a beauty in the make but i am over limit 😬

[sage wolf]

I don't have an answer to your question, but on the off chance it's multiplayer friendly, do everyone a favor and keep your over complex corvettes out of the anomaly (or turn off multiplayer)

[halcyon geode]

cannot wait for corvettes to be on switch

[sage wolf]

Some people are crashing because corvette with like 1k parts are entering the anomaly

[sage wolf]

Switch 1?

[halcyon geode]

yes

[sage wolf]

Yeah uh... about that lol

I don't think switch 1 is getting corvettes

They literally released 6.0 on switch 1 but without the expedition and without the corvettes

[tardy bear]

Thats why i am asking dont want to crash the whole show its allready broken in the anomaly

[lyric halo]

It might be an ugly box ATM but it has everything a home needs

[sage wolf]

Just don't go in the anomaly

[bitter grotto]

#nms-showcase-corvettes

[lyric halo]

Got a living wall, nutrition unit, 2 beds and a medi pod, mission radar and refiner and 4 cargo holds crammed into a small package

[tardy bear]

I get the way its done but i alway lose the rotation on other habs that i put the rotation on not sure why that happens

[halcyon geode]

switches 6.0 is actually 5.73 according to the nms websites update release section

well correction 6.0 says its on switch but 5.74 and 5.75 dont

[sage wolf]

I just wouldn't get your hopes up; it might be like settlements where the switch 1 just can't handle it

[halcyon geode]

settlements are on switch 1

i think

i have a settlements tab in teleporters now

honestly tho, i have hope hello games will do better than hinterlanda did

i lost all respect for hinterland studio after what they did

the long darks swith port is functionally abandonware now when it was advertised as if it was gonna be fully finished

[sage wolf]

Settlements are not on switch 1

[halcyon geode]

idk why i have the "your settlements tab" on teleporters then

[lyric halo]

Settlements are on switch 1 but can be a bit buggy

In my experience, though it's been a while cos I'm on a switch2 now

[halcyon geode]

honestly tho from what ive heard the switch 2 isnt a very big upgrade in specs

[lyric halo]

Like hardware specs?

[halcyon geode]

yeah

[zinc knoll]

New patch?

Oh boy.

Oh. Nothing on fixing the tech shuffling.

I shall curse at the code like an old man angry at the clouds lol.

[halcyon geode]

honestly tho the devs are good about getting the switch port out on time so im confident well atleast get a more restricted corvette update

[loud estuary]

Turns out the "Paint All" Option isn't applying at all. It just shows in the editor and doesn't save anything painted with it

[halcyon geode]

oof

[lyric halo]

@halcyon geode it has a better CPU, 3 times more RAM which is lpddr5 instead of lpddr4, custom GPU that allows for DLSS and ray tracing.

[chilly valve]

yes

its a serious pain in the ass tho

[limpid karma]

@wicked dune just a question, did you feel that i was rude to you earlier when i was asking about offsetting parts, cuz some guy messaged me saying that i was rude

[halcyon geode]

ah

[lyric halo]

It's a significant step up imo

[halcyon geode]

honestly the only context ive heard dlss mentioned is buzzword slop in advertisements

[lyric halo]

DLSS helps with making things look nicer by upscaling stuff from a lower resolution iirc

Basically a way of making things look better with less horsepower

[halcyon geode]

yeah from what ive seen its just nvidias name for ai upscaling

[lyric halo]

It works though

[halcyon geode]

i dont like hyper realism in games tbf

i love stylised graphics

[lyric halo]

Anyway as someone who went from an OG switch 1 to a switch 2 and having both NMS and Hogwarts legacy on the original I can safely say there's a very good step up

[halcyon geode]

dst and tld have my favourite graphics

[lyric halo]

DST? Tld?

[halcyon geode]

dont starve together

the long dark

[lyric halo]

Ahhh

Don't get me wrong I'm not all about the graphics, I'm an avid rimworld, zomboid and kenshi player

And I love the art style of stuff like sunless sea/skies

[halcyon geode]

personally love zomboids graphics never played tho

but yeah i doubt the nms devs are gonna pull a green hell and just go radio silent and stop updating ports

[lyric halo]

I have green hell, on switch iirc

[halcyon geode]

yeah its abandonware now

[lyric halo]

Really? That's a shame, I kinda wanted to get it on my meta quest 2

[halcyon geode]

the devs just stopped one day and a while later said "yeah we give up on it"

[halcyon geode]

the switch port specifically

[wicked shell]

okay I have fixed it

[lyric halo]

Noice

[halcyon geode]

the switch port was a borderline rug pull

[lyric halo]

Guess it's no good on switch? Feel like I might have tried it briefly but a while ago

[wicked shell]

back to a mini max stat ship again without throwing me through a wall

and its blue!

[halcyon geode]

it hasnt been updated basically at all

after like three updates they went radio silent for a bit over a year iirc and then announced it was abandonware now

hence why i call it a borderline rug pull

but yeah im 99% sure the nms devs wouldnt do anything like that

and tbf mobile bases work in both subnauticas and those games have atrocious optimization

[lyric halo]

I mean it's hard to hold all studios up to hello games standards

[halcyon geode]

true theyre killing it

[lyric halo]

There's plenty that release, drop a couple of patches to fix any bugs and then call it a day

[halcyon geode]

only comparable studios are redigit and team cherry

in my opinion

[lyric halo]

Ludeon

With rimworld

The PZ guys

[halcyon geode]

i have no experience with em

but yeah redigits the king of optimization its nye impossible to crash terraria

[lyric halo]

PZ has been out 12 years and still gets lots of updates

Including large game changing ones

Rimworld is 7 years old and recently had a large DLC update

[halcyon geode]

hell its difficult to even have lag in terraria

oh i forgot concerned ape

concerned ape is up there in terms of god tier devs

[rocky ginkgo]

its so we3ird

[fading skiff]

i can't wait for build 42 to have multiplayer added back in

[lyric halo]

You know what, in like 700 hours I've never played pz multiplayer

[austere raptor]

can u guys help me pls

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

[long pawn]

I like it!

[long pawn]

That's really vague. Can you be more specific?

[austere raptor]

ive been experimenting with glitches in the nms corvette builder and one of my ships has turned into this

im really upset about this because this was one of my best ships yet that ive been using some new techniques on

[lime fractal]

Disappeared? I imagine you don't have a backup save?

[mossy widget]

How many people are you even able to play with at once? I have like 7 seats on my corvette.

[long pawn]

Is this what you need?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbZ2VfVQtvY

[solid pond]

Four per instance

[pseudo forge]

Go back and watch it again. It works but you can only rotate on hab that are turned around. Its kind of finicky or I haven't learned how to use fully yet. He tells you about how he messes up shortly before your time stamp start. I am using E to copy the turned around hab.

[austere raptor]

i dont think i have a backup save

[glad oar]

What you building here, a jedi interceptor?

[long pawn]

Stupid or secretly genius? 🤔

[rugged jolt]

Anything you think I could do to get closer to the inspiration?

[pseudo forge]

Just learned to how to rotate every piece. I'm gonna build alot of things.

[maiden apex]

on pc what do i press to get out of the pilot seat

[austere raptor]

you press e

[kind glacier]

OMG YES

[hardy oracle]

X, search a bit, then when you find the option to stand up, bind it to a number so you don't have to use that menu every time

[maiden apex]

is land

but i found it in the quick menu

[limpid karma]

dear halo fans, did i miss any major details with this or am i good to go

[mossy widget]

How long do y'all think it's gonna take before the color all option works?

[limpid karma]

it works now

i was using it

[pseudo forge]

Oh I am liking this rotate glitch

[lavish surge]

my 5th star trek corvette, the STS Shran

[mossy widget]

It still won't work for me, did you do any extra steps besides just modifying the corvette and selecting a part, choosing a color, then applying it to all?

[limpid karma]

nope

i just pressed the button

[frank gate]

Rotation glitch?

[limpid karma]

maybe you have to reload your game

[pseudo forge]

Put a small hab on top of another hab, Put a ladder in backwards. Go back to modify and your hab wil now rotate backwards. Items placed on backwards hab can be rotated 360.

Also as result generators and other items can be stacked inside each other

[frank gate]

Now if only there was a way to rotate some things vertically….

[pseudo forge]

There youtebe vids on it, its how I learned.

Still learning it.

[summer kite]

Please help...just finished corvette expedition. This was completed on a new save. I was not asked to claim anything. I want to access the corvette on my existing character. I tried launching existing character and going to anomoly, no go. I went to my freighter, no go. I went to a space station no go. I can see my corvette at the anomoly when logged in on the character that completed the expedition. So much conflicting information online.

Youtube vids and reddit said it transferred. If existing save I had to claim items, new save they indicated it would be transferable.

[summer kite]

Thanks so much!

[eager sky]

If you didn't use your main save, you're out of luck. Best you can do is memorise how you built it and replicate it

[mossy widget]

I've reset the game multiple times and it still doesn't work

[limpid karma]

unlucky man

report it as a bug and hope for the best

[mossy widget]

Frl, nms just wants me to keep slaving 😭

[pseudo forge]

Sadly, I didn't know before making the mistake myself, and what it seems like reddit, youtube and HG even fails to inform people that are not wise about expeditions or have never done them before like new players is one small but very important fact. For items to be transferable you must start Expedition from the expeditions terminal at the anomaly with your main safe, and not from the main menu. As far as I know there is no way to xfer your ship from a new expd save to main save.

Ask HG nicely in a ticket??

[summer kite]

@pseudo forge Firstly, thank you for the response. I am, shall we say, not f'n happy. Guess I have to decide if the new save is now my main save or do the expedition again. Grrrrr, bad design

[pseudo forge]

Heard things about save editors.

[white fable]

Hey!!! I made a similar one

[summer kite]

@pseudo forge Just looked into that, not comfortable with how mods interact with NMS after patches and such.

@pseudo forge were you being sarcastic about asking NMS?

[pseudo forge]

No, not sarcastic its always an option, but I'd expect a no and hope for something better.

[white fable]

Something similar happened to me. After I was done building my corvette i chose the option to "swap" my ship and viola! My original's gone

[summer kite]

i guess creative mode is an option if i don't mind not getting achievements

[white fable]

U can just start a new save, finish up the achievements on it and then change it to creative after

[pseudo forge]

If you don't ask the answer is already no. I use creative to test a lot of design ideas. have like 3 ships that keep morphing

[summer kite]

Actually, my existing achievements are not going anywhere, could build on them with what I will now call, "The Corvette Save." Grrrrrrrr

Where would I ask Hello Games?

[pseudo forge]

OH sorry #contact-us has all that info. I am suggesting submitting a ticket to zendesk.

[tawdry topaz]

what is this

[wraith quiver]

oh neat

i need to see what new parts there are lol im on pc but technically its xbox since its not through steam

[sonic trout]

hey so i did the entire expedition (launched from the terminal in my main save), and then i joined a multiplayer session to complete all the milestones. then at the end of it, i end the expedition to learn that i was actually playing in a second save file, not linked to my main at all which i didnt know was created. what do i do now, i dont want to have to rerun the expedition again

[limpid karma]

secret

[fervent mist]

Honestly I’ve been making and selling corvettes over and over and now have 3328 maneuverability and definitely can get to 4k with more augment techs. If your corvettes only had 3 super charge slots instead of 4 then could be a blessing in disguise

[summer kite]

@fervent mist so, just build one on my "main" save?

[fervent mist]

Yeah, I personally switch to creative, build/sell my corvettes till I got the almost perfect 4 supercharge slots next to each other in a square formation. In creative you can upgrade and add whatever for free then switch back to normal or custom

My very first corvette I built through grinding but the other 2, I used this method

[summer kite]

@fervent mist Once I switch to creative, achievements are over for good on that save, correct?

[fervent mist]

I never pay attention to achievements and don’t care at all so no idea if that is the case

[summer kite]

@fervent mist fair enough, thx

[fervent mist]

If you want, find a peaceful universes and start digging. I’m in a chill universe where a volcano planet and snow planet have tons of corvette parts

There is also a way to duplicate resources and parts but not sure if this discord is cool with info like that being shared

[summer kite]

@fervent mist I have a refiner! XD

[fervent mist]

Yes, the refiner trick changed my life

1 ambassador hub becomes 30 lol

[gloomy nebula]

Oh we are talking about the miracle of multiplication via refiners are we

Maybe I should go do that instead of running all over the place digging up parts and trading them

[summer kite]

@fervent mist I am going to sleep on it, this because right now I'm pissed! lol I may run the expedition again on main as I now know what I am getting into. I will also consider the other options, thank you for your input.

[tawdry topaz]

So you can doup the best modules if you put them on your corvette before ending the expedition...

[maiden apex]

my friend keeps falling thru the floor at the space station? my first corvette

[wicked shell]

What new modules are there because I don't see any in the creative menu?

[flint plover]

has anyone else had problems with decoration-built items on the outside of your corvette disappearing. I've seen a few specific items disappear for a while and reappear the next day seemingly randomly. Wondering if there's a solution for it

[flint plover]

there's just one in the last update. A short rounded corner piece

[wicked shell]

Huh I dont see it. Either way I probably don't need it on my ship rn.

[coarse grove]

got a question... would this ship be possible to make with the corvette builder???

[limpid karma]

it would take a bit of creativity but id bet you could get close

[vast bison]

Definitely a reach there but I reckon you can get close as well

[limpid karma]

i made a covenant dropship earlier today

i feel like thats pretty close in complexity

[coarse grove]

hmmm... what strategies did you use to get the bubbly and circular aesthetic of covenant ships???

[limpid karma]

bubbly and circular parts

it looks way better in this video

[coarse grove]

looks really good... hmmm... i reckon ill this infinity guard cruiser a try...

[limpid karma]

honestly the glitch to get sideways thrusters is really easy

[tawdry topaz]

Has anyone managed to roll a corvette with perfect SC slots?

[rugged jolt]

I dont get how people can do entire builds with base deco parts, but I can't even get one lamp pole to attach to my ship without getting left in the station....

[vast bison]

LMAO

Boy if that ain't a mood

I place a singular wire and Im in the backrooms

[rugged jolt]

I just saw an enterprise build that was 99% decorations

[wicked shell]

Wait pause... ship design actually affects stats???

if I take wings off of my ship my maneuverability goes up

[upbeat oracle]

does anyone else have that weird bug where ur corvette tilts upwards when u enable autopilot

[vast bison]

My recent finish

[open tartan]

how realistic is it to have maxed reactors on a corvette

must take up a ton of space

[reef magnet]

man this update feels amazing, its like playing space engineers lol

[fresh cave]

I just overlap them. I put the mobility reactor in the front of the long tube reactor and I forgot how I placed the jump reactor in the rear of the tube but its possible on at least the right side (from the rear of the ship)

im able to max all of them out.

[shut mango]

Now thats a smexy design

[shut mango]

Findable but not fully implemented parts

[open tartan]

hell yeah

[wicked shell]

you can get a lot of things. also if you place the medusa reactors before the cockpit you can have three

[coarse grove]

this is what i got so far but gow could i make floating external parts???

[open tartan]

is there a way to glitch build and overlap them?

[shut mango]

Dig the color scheme

[coarse grove]

this was my inspiration... but i need to know how to do floating parts...

[shut mango]

Quick search on youtube will solve that

[fresh cave]

for me its showing you can only have 2 for stats

[limpid karma]

i didnt know that wasnt just a way to show whats under the design

you can do floating parts somewhat easily

https://youtu.be/FrbetZzNSZ0?si=argQzBH12OI0SPMC

be careful though

back up your save before doing this

[coarse grove]

the floating parts are a part of whats called a "lightfold engine" its essentially the method of FTL in Final space...

[coarse grove]

and yeah... i will

[wicked shell]

you have to remove the cockpit and then place all three and then not move them after you add the cockpit\

1 sec ill give a screenshot of mine so you can see. it replaces the cockpit in the menu

[fresh cave]

ah, then ill add a upgrade for the slot rq to force place the reactor.

[tawdry topaz]

Has anyone tested rerolling corvettes builds for slots?

[wicked shell]

my current tech loadout

its less maneuverability than my last model but I think its because of the thrusters. only less by 28.3 tho

[fresh cave]

damn, how fast with your battery focusing on manuverability?

[wicked shell]

Well, I managed to get the stats up even more

[smoky dawn]

Ok I pull up

[smoky dawn]

Gonna follow unsuspecting travelers in the weekend mission with this bad boy

[fading skiff]

i saw someone on reddit with over 6500 lol

[limpid karma]

🐌

you cant react to messages in here

[smoky dawn]

True..

[smoky dawn]

You can, you just have to level up a few times

[limpid karma]

i dont care that much about it

[fresh cave]

and im asking how fast physically you go in units with the batt focus on manuverability as I can currently go 530u/s

[limpid karma]

if i make more ships i will level up

[wicked shell]

I am not using optimal ship trails and gear to make it faster. I did my ship for aesthetics and wanted to make it small. A guy on here has over 5k from a good ship with trail bonuses

[wicked shell]

huh let me see I havent thought about it

[limpid karma]

where do i go from here

[wicked shell]

how do I check the speed it it just on the hud or is it like only in first person?

[smoky dawn]

I think you can see the speed when you fly in first person, idk about anywhere else

[wicked shell]

okay bet

2963u/s

401u/s no boost

and the interplanetary seems to be in the 63k range but it got blurry

[smoky dawn]

Now you have me curious… my giant snail goes 409 without boost and roughly 2570 with boost

[wicked shell]

The drop off of stats is pretty high. There is deminishing returns.

I wonder if my ships lower stats are because I only have a single hab?

the other layout is exactly the same so my damage shouldnt be lower but it is

[shut mango]

@rugged jolt Well were on the topic of Eve id love to see some proper faction mechanics in Nms, with the new corvettes its practically begging for it

[rugged jolt]

We NEED faction parts

[fresh cave]

thats a big bump.

[shut mango]

Oh hell ya we do, it would be a hugely missed opportunity on HG not to

[rugged jolt]

The question is, what would each factions design look like

[fresh cave]

btw this is the pic of all 3 put together. like I said earlier.

[rugged jolt]

Ironically I picture corvax parts looking very round and organic

Gek being very high tech

And vykeen very rust bucket and sharp

[limpid karma]

this is my dropships top speed

[rugged jolt]

And then you could do the ||autophage|| as very hard sci fi nasa/space station inspired parts

[shut mango]

Oh that's easy they can stick with the current themes i.e. hauler types for Geks and combat/fighter themes for Vy'keen. Maybe even some quest locked combat related first spawn Gek stuff

[wicked shell]

That's really good! I think that my only having a single hab is why mine dropped so much. But with the diminishing returns past a certain point you can't really tell the difference.

[shut mango]

Oh the opportunities

[limpid karma]

didnt really do anything though

i just made the ship

trying to make it look like whats in halo

[shut mango]

I could see that fs

[limpid karma]

i came up on the part limit too

[wicked shell]

Honestly it seems like corvettes are just op from the drop. I made my first one for stats and then was like... Eh I will go for pretty ships. To be fair tho I didn't know how to do adjacency slots back then.

[clear loom]

I'm curious how to make like decks that would lead outside in a corvette

[limpid karma]

i think theyre definitely a bit overtuned for what you get

[shut mango]

My favorite nms aesthetics

[limpid karma]

but that just means they should buff the small guys more

[wicked shell]

They just replace every other vehicle. I don't even use landing gear bonuses because who needs it. No water landing because why would I when I can just fly above and one is literally just the auto refueling that the reactor gives. And as you can see with my ship you can easily stuff all 15 modules into 2 blocks making space issues kind of irrelevant. Maybe if you really need the extra building parts but still.

[rugged jolt]

I really need some more hard sci fi type of stuff

[wicked shell]

Plus you can rotate blocks sideways now which opens up a lot more opportunity for builds.

[rugged jolt]

I love the full white shuttles because they actually look like something we would build

[shut mango]

Ive seen some great builds with a door on the second story with some upside down parts making for a great deck

[clear loom]

Trying to recreate an airship

[shut mango]

Right they are kinda teasing us with the new drip lol

[rugged jolt]

Oh I have my character dressed like the average astronaut 😂

[shut mango]

That'll be cool would make for a great fishing spot

[wicked shell]

I like the glow of the reactors and wings but I wish there was more glows with maybe selectable colors?

[rugged jolt]

Sneak peek of the current build

[wicked shell]

I know we can add lights but I mean built in

[shut mango]

Haha im going with the autophage or id have the same

[rugged jolt]

I don't have them unlocked yet

Want the poncho so bad though

I have this guy, a korvax, and and a traveller shark cyborg

But anyway back to spaceships

[shut mango]

Something we need fs, would go a long way with themes

[wicked shell]

What do they look like?

[rugged jolt]

Some of my hard sci fi builds if you haven't seen them

oh and this guy

[rugged jolt]

Traveller is supposed to be piratey to match my sail corvettes

[wicked shell]

My ship glows because of the exposed reactors and the medusas add really cool tubes so more of that sort of stuff would be awesome. Maybe more boosters and wings?

[rugged jolt]

korvax is just a korvax because no autophage

[wicked shell]

I haven't made any boat themes corvettes yet. Probably would be cool to try out.

[shut mango]

hehe

[shut mango]

Dude I love your builds the theme is so good

[hexed thicket]

I made myself a little shuttle. The big corvettes are great as flying bases, but it's nice to keep some of that 'lone explorer' feel of the old starships while keeping the corvette conveniences.

[clear loom]

The second one goes crazy

Reminds me of the nomad from star citizen or like the snow ships from star wars that take out the walkers.

[shut mango]

Good one I dig it has a dropship vibe going on

[hexed thicket]

I've been trying to figure out advanced building techniques, but so far only the diagonal offset stuck with me. Weirdly enough the hardest item to place on that ship is the radar dish. :P

[wicked shell]

here is my robot boi, matching colors with my ship because aethetic lol

[rugged jolt]

I just finished this one, to help a member here with the design

Its from pitch black if you've seen it

[wicked shell]

The back solar panels are sick

I hope those are solar panels or i look dumb

[rugged jolt]

They're roughly placed just for the concept

[shut mango]

Haven't got into the glitch techniques yet but scaffolding goes a long ways

[rugged jolt]

"unfinished"

[icy kraken]

The before vs the after of my new mining ship

[rugged jolt]

the inspo pic

[hexed thicket]

Build like this remind me that we really need point to point teleporters in corvettes sometimes.

[shut mango]

Same lol looking fly

[rugged jolt]

Ugh

The bug with base deco is so annoying

[icy kraken]

The more I look at my ship the happier I am with it

[rugged jolt]

half my ship is missing parts

[rugged jolt]

I like it

Mining ships are always cool to see

Very interesting how each player has their own style

A friend called me out for having a "theme" the other day, all unintentional 😂

[icy kraken]

tyty! Would you like to hear the concept for how it works and does its job?

[rugged jolt]

Go for it

[shut mango]

No, I did see this though. A prefect reason why we need some sci-fi/nasa looking parts. Would be fun to make a space trucker looking ship from Cowboy bebop

[wide hatch]

any fellow helldivers got any wise ideas on how to upgrade my super destroyer corvette 👀 also do the torpedoes not actually work lol?

[shut mango]

Such a good feeling lol, praise the HG

[rugged jolt]

I always think of lore as I'm building my ships too

[shut mango]

Rip, sacrifices must be made for the aesthetic gods lol

[rugged jolt]

The torpedoes seem to just act as an upgrade rather than a weapon system which is odd

[rugged jolt]

This is why I don't understand the full builds with base parts

[wide hatch]

oh strange

[rugged jolt]

half my ship would disappear 😂

[wide hatch]

wanted to blast rockets 🚀

[shut mango]

Not at the moment no

[shut mango]

haha hell ya same, thats half the fun

[wide hatch]

have all my shields on the inside of parts will that be any use. or just cool cause i see it through a window inside

spinning and looking cool 🪩

[shut mango]

System issue maybe? Or just that the corvettes still have a lotta bugs to work out

[wide hatch]

kinda hope some bugs stay lol. my razor crest was made with a lot of glitchy snapping etc

[shut mango]

Just good vibes my guy lol

[shut mango]

Oh im sure they wont mess with the community glitch build techniques hg is good about letting people have fun

[icy kraken]

The way the ship functions is basically, it flies in towards large asteroids and will use the main middle phase beam cannon to carve chunk by chunk, It'll then use its tractor beams at the front of the ship to retrieve said chunks within range of the pulse cannons up top to blast apart and then collect

[shut mango]

Dope such fun lore, community thought up flavors are the best

[icy kraken]

Another way it can operate is to blast into asteroids bearing crystals with the pulse cannons, then carve out the desired minerals, just to pull them out with the tractor cannons

[rugged jolt]

when in doubt: blow it up

[icy kraken]

tyty ! It took me a while to come up with a design that I liked, for the concept I had in mind

[shut mango]

Turned out out great, makes me want some asteroid mining related quests. Would be sweet if they were a little more true to size so we could land on um

[glass cloak]

I've got a couple of corvettes I put together before I settled on a good design. How do I fully dismantle them and remove them from the lineup without losing any modules or pieces?

[wicked shell]

Anyone else just like flying through astroid fields and trying to dodge them? I mean the game is just so pretty and it runs really well. I'm glad I picked it up.

[smoky dawn]

I don’t think I’ve shared this one here yet… this was my expedition corvette but I gave it an overhaul. Say hello to (formerly named) Goobert

[shut mango]

I kinda feel bad when I do a test fire at space anomalies just to check lol

[shut mango]

Oh ya fs lol

[smoky dawn]

I like to fire my weapons right before I enter a space station just to piss off the sentinels

[rugged jolt]

Its because you are a defective autophage, standard operational korvax have no such weakness... or something like that

[shut mango]

Im sure what I did was the worst way lol but I took the ship apart only leaving the parts you can buy then traded off what was left

[icy kraken]

Side note, here's the cockpit and such design

The titan cockpit felt perfect both inside and out for this kind of ship

[shut mango]

Sweet, it has water landing right?

[smoky dawn]

Indeed

I got the idea for the conjoined tail from someone in the subreddit, for everything else I kinda just winged it

[shut mango]

lmao a pirate at heart

[shut mango]

My fav cockpit fs

[rugged jolt]

P61 black widow?

[shut mango]

Im an organic builder as well, can make some truly awesome builds if you let the creativity flow

[humble junco]

car

still needs a name

[smoky dawn]

Hmm… looks like a Michael to me

Really nice build

[humble junco]

thanks mate

it's my first corvette

*not counting the amorphus boxes

[smoky dawn]

I used to have a car corvette, but I turned it into a giant snail

If only that hood scoop was a functional part

[humble junco]

i guess i could swap it for a weapon?

dont have many

[shut mango]

Hey we started as puddle slime so dont knock the amorphous boxes lol

[shut mango]

Na no way aesthetics are more important for me, feeling good about your build is whats its all about

[humble junco]

that said default name's pretty cool, Breath of the Zuminash

dont have the faintest idea what that is but it sounds cool

[raven rover]

i sure hope zuminash doesnt have a smelly breath

guys i need opinions

[wicked shell]

Man corvettes kind of blow in combat. ;-;

[shut mango]

Its the last thing the cocky pirate saw lol

[raven rover]

which front part looks better

or both are shit

[humble junco]

i think i prefer the second one

[raven rover]

Right one?

[humble junco]

ye

[raven rover]

Aighttt

[shut mango]

Well both are great but I kinda dig the shield gen

[raven rover]

what shield gen 😭

I didnt put any

Left one is just the guns glowing

OOHHHHH

IM DUMB SRY

The ceto

[shut mango]

The right one lol excellent build btw

[raven rover]

Thaanks

[shut mango]

ya the ceto lol

[icy kraken]

ayo that's a sick ship

[raven rover]

Thaankss

just experimenting with the circular stuff

bottom one is someone elses ship

[shut mango]

Considering there's more to come perhaps it'll get a little better. Might need to tweak your design or go with more of a fighter kinda build

[humble junco]

damn, that's fire

[rugged jolt]

I need to see more of this

[humble junco]

i started like a week ago so i dont have much stuff yet

[rugged jolt]

You need to upgrade your corvette like any other ship

Corvettes start at C

so they'll be pretty dog until you upgrade em

[long pawn]

Looks great! We need more twin boomed designs like it. Mind if I give the idea a whirl?

[rugged jolt]

What we need for parts are more wing designs that can be used together as a gradient

Sweeping wing designs are super difficult to do right now

[humble junco]

any prefered way of getting nanites?

i have a sorta-passive income with my settlement but it's in small bursts

[rugged jolt]

I'd love to make this but I don't know if there is a way to get the wing angles correct

[rugged jolt]

I don't know of any good farms unfortunately

outside of missions

[raven rover]

you can with angled glitching

[humble junco]

it's in a pirate system so my town market just straight up sells me contraband lul

[rugged jolt]

how do I do that

Which method

[shut mango]

agreed

[shut mango]

You can make some epic stuff with glitch building

[raven rover]

@rugged jolt

It wont be 100% accurate

Like bang on 45 degrees but yeah

[raven rover]

Yepperss

[shut mango]

I like to buy and scrap a and s class ships in space stations then sell the tech mods

[barren inlet]

I’m about to make my first corvette. Any tips for what to do vs what not to do?

[rugged jolt]

omg thank you

[long pawn]

I think that was done on purpose to ensure their popularity.

[raven rover]

do anything that you want to do

Only advice i can give for looks is

Dont put too much habs

Looks too blocky

Cover em up

[smoky dawn]

The ever-so-present flea:

[barren inlet]

Fair call Ty

[limpid karma]

to some extent i would believe it

nobody wants a big clunky ship

[shut mango]

How does your ships handle in mp and the anomaly?

[raven rover]

Pretty good

That one humongous one lags sometimes

But the others are fine

I wont bring mine to the anomaly tho

Because of ship stealers and i dont want to make it more laggy

[shut mango]

Aside from glitch build just generally being a pain the biggest reason I haven't gotten into it myself is a concern of making a lag machine lol

[raven rover]

unpopular opinion but id like corvette to be slower

[shut mango]

Ship stealers?

[raven rover]

I use a no parts limit mod

[limpid karma]

doesnt bother me any

[raven rover]

And my other friend does too

Its not laggy at all

Probably just the corvette load times

this boyo is probably 300ish or 250

only lags when spawning it in or loading it in for the first time

[raven rover]

Yeah players not on your group can steal your corvettes

And swap it with their ship

[long pawn]

Depends what you mean by clunky. 😁

[long pawn]

WHAT????

[raven rover]

Ive seen 2 of my friends ship get stolen

[shut mango]

I do wish the limit was better but I dont mind the constraint, forces me to build in a dynamic kinda way but im sure ill get that mod at some point if they keep it at 100

[raven rover]

😔

[raven rover]

I liked the 100 thing, limitations brings problem solving and optimizations but oh well

[shut mango]

Thats wack, if there's not a setting to stop that there need to be

[raven rover]

I want to relive my robocraft days

[raven rover]

Its just abusing a glitch

Needs to be patched ASAP

[shut mango]

Ya fs

[long pawn]

For certain! No one deserves their hard work stolen due to a bug

[raven rover]

Idk if the stealers meant it or just by accident

Either way

Sucks ass

I aint bringin my ship to the anomaly

Aint no way

[long pawn]

Hmmm???

[shut mango]

Imagining a ship thief seeing your monster ship roll up with ban powers haha

[raven rover]

😭

[long pawn]

What about the anomaly?

[raven rover]

Thats where someone could steal your ship

A bunch of randoms entering your ship

[long pawn]

😱

[wind skiff]

Anyone know how to fix rockhopper wing modules not activating when landing?

[raven rover]

No way to fix im afraid

Limitations

OR mods

[wind skiff]

ff, guess we'll wait for a patch then

how bout the extra landing bays not closing?

[raven rover]

Yeah i hope so but its in the code. The amount of effects thats shown

[long pawn]

Thanks for the tip. I'll avoid using my corvette there.

[wind skiff]

related to part limit?

[raven rover]

Probably to make it less laggy

[neon bay]

Does an emeril drive give you the effects of the cadmium and indium drives?

[raven rover]

Like if you put 15 thrusters only 12 light up

CMIIW

[wind skiff]

I just want them to either all light up, or not light up at all, it annoys me to no end that like half are on but the other half arnt xD

[shut mango]

Wait so can you not just summon your ship back if it gets taken or does it switch there ship with yours in the menu?

[long pawn]

That many? I would have guessed a lower numer.

[raven rover]

poof gone

[raven rover]

Yep

[raven rover]

I dont know for sure but i think its a lot

[raven rover]

swapped with their ship

[shut mango]

rip hope that gets patched out, did you send in a report?

[raven rover]

Corvette/normal ship

I did

Pablos corvette got swapped with another corvette

[shut mango]

good deal thx for that

[raven rover]

Miteys corvette got swapped with a shittle

Diabolical

[shut mango]

But it has such great stats haha

[raven rover]

😔

[shut mango]

So Zycrom is your next build going to be big enough for other corvettes to land on it or are you already there lol

Id love to see a part that lets you land fighters on corvettes

[neon bay]

The game just landed someone else's corvette inside mine in the anomaly and now I'm stuck

[fringe stag]

Internal Landing pads for corvettes would be next level goated

[shut mango]

If you cant get to the cockpit a quick reload will do the trick

[lament notch]

Gng we need sentinel corvette parts

[limpid karma]

we need more cockpits and more interactivity with cockpits we do have

[ruby siren]

This is a common glitch and I had to restart maybe twice during the expedition. Pretty disruptive

[shut mango]

Right I have hope, feel like its doable

[lament notch]

Agreed

[limpid karma]

there is no reason to pick one over another besides for looks

[fringe stag]

🙏
One day
First lets hope they smash out a long list of bug fixes though 😭

[shut mango]

Looking forward to the three seat one that has yet to hit the main stream

[dry dragon]

How do I get second story rooms connected to the first?

I thought it was supposed to add a ladder automatically

[shut mango]

Thats a must, like the ship stealing I just learned about lol

[limpid karma]

cat in the hat scene where theyre all driving the car

[fringe stag]

build menu, (Z button on PC, NOT the Corvette assembly one) internal staircase

[shut mango]

Staircase in the interior builder

[raven rover]

😭 id like to do that but probably too laggy

[raven rover]

I mean you alr can, but yeah id like a proper part

[limpid karma]

i think stairs should be part of the ship builder

just let me do it it would speed up one of the glitches i do

[rugged jolt]

I did a very very quick rough draft of what jabbas party barge might look like. If anyone has recommendations for the sails let me know.

[limpid karma]

yeah do the big wire adjacency glitch for the sails

[shut mango]

The nms community need this sacrifice from you soldier hop to lol
