[rancid oracle]

kinda weird how ceto-class reactor is in a different adjacency group from shield upgrades and deflector shield attachment

[jagged quarry]

where do you get that from?

[proper vapor]

why does my ship fly tilted when i use autopilot? it's still going straight just rotated weirdly

[mild stratus]

I believe it's from the quicksilver guy it's been awhile since I gotbit

[jagged quarry]

ok ill take a alook

[torn mirage]

Ive done that got tall void antennas and void dishes up on my ship and 1 atlantidium crystal antenna thing

[mild stratus]

We really need more autophage stuff there being neglected so bad it's like the enclave from fallout all over again

[cursive lark]

It's from expedition 10

[wraith quiver]

did they ever change the limit of glowing rockhoppers?

@mild stratus how many of your rockhoppers actually glow?

[hardy oracle]

I had not realised there was a unique pulse engine upgrade on the runner! thanks for the tip. 🙂

Photonix core installed, new record achieved?

[wraith quiver]

i need dat

[hardy oracle]

I do believe I might have reached the point where I have gone too far now though 😄

[torn mirage]

I did read that on Google, I have the expedition 10 badge but I dont remember completing all of it, I dont even remember doing it lol

[hardy oracle]

It is still quite valuable for skimming near the surface of planets but for anything else this level of boosting and manoeuvrability really is overkill

Turning also gets a little bit odd at this level of tech. It's not bad but the turning speed while boosting is high enough to be a little difficult, though it remains quite comfortable when not boosting.

[mild stratus]

You son of a 😂

@hardy oracle show me your ship set up immediately

[hardy oracle]

Sure, give me a few minutes to screenshot and highlight supercharging and such

[wraith quiver]

you guys have all 4 slots adjacent or what?

[hardy oracle]

Just 3 for me. I marked all my supercharged slots with little green stars in the picture

I don't think a 4th slot offers as much value as the first 3 for my X-class modules, so I decided it was fine to accept one elsewhere. Makes for a good weapon booster anyway

[wraith quiver]

thanks!

[hardy oracle]

I was getting really tired of retrying at that point

[wraith quiver]

yeah ive never got a 4 but i honestly like having one for my weapons

i mean i know technically you could still use one of 4 adjacent for weapons but eh

[runic bluff]

I really wish the game had a way to prioritize your best engines of each type first instead of prioritizing order of acquisition

[wraith quiver]

yeh the engines are a bit odd it seems to change stats if you flip it.

[unique lake]

how does it have teeth

[wraith quiver]

im hoping their placement order isnt so important

[hardy oracle]

The numbers on the corvette techs are really weird. I really don't understand what they are based on. They're clearly some form of random but no matter what I do I can't reroll mine. But mine clearly have different numbers than what others have reported

Like, why is my third medusa twice as powerful as my first two? I don't know! I'm glad it's strong, but why are the others weaker? For my shields the second one was much stronger.

[mild stratus]

I got lucky with my sc slots honestly

[runic bluff]

Stats on engines, shields, etc roll similar to X-Class modules from what I can tell

[hardy oracle]

Similar in the sense that they're very random? They sure aren't nearly as strong

[runic bluff]

And you can't see the stats outside the Corvette builder

[wraith quiver]

idk how some modules show up b rank some a rank and some b rank

[runic bluff]

I have 1 Medusa with 2% Maneuverability and another with 15%, it swings WIDE

Wait that's engines, my bad

Still, point stands

[hardy oracle]

yeah, it's similar for me. My third medusa is way, way stronger. Not s-class level of strong but still quite good

[mild stratus]

It's gunna be fun when we all have to redo our tech slots after switching our ship parts for cooler looking ones in the future

[runic bluff]

Just lemme see the stats so I know which ones to sell

[wraith quiver]

i have some placeholder 3 slots ill just tear down to rebuild.

[smoky dawn]

Hold on a second that ship looks familiar…

Were you at the meetup on Sunday?

I swear I saw that ship

[mild stratus]

I put the titantic trophy part way in my cockpit

Oh btw the little air vent thingys from the 3rd page in ship builder also affect maneuverability a decent amount and it matters where you put them on your ship

[quick gyro]

You should put decals onto the hull for eyes lol

[rocky ginkgo]

Are there any similar games where you can build vehicles like the corvettes in no man sky?

[wraith quiver]

oh uh yeh totally.. actually starfield copied us 😛

[rocky ginkgo]

smt else

can also be vehicles

[mild stratus]

@wraith quiver bubble ducts for exterior decoration yay or nay

[wraith quiver]

im joking lol i think there are different games with different building styles someone was mentioning earlier

[rocky ginkgo]

i tried starfield i mean the loading screen simulator, did not like it

[rocky ginkgo]

ooooooo

thats actually smart

[wraith quiver]

oh wtf is that in a ceto you fancy mofugga

i think it works

your ship definitely looks like it was manufactured on your menacing ass base

[rocky ginkgo]

But this one, how ??

[mild stratus]

You gotta put one under so it changes the shape/direction of the bubble duct

[quick gyro]

I wish we could build custom freighters

[mild stratus]

Lmao it was by accident I put it inside but yea i like it now to try replicate it on the other side I honestly hate bubble ducts for there lack of ways to tell what direction there going

[wraith quiver]

i never messed with them really but that looks real good

[kind glacier]

any suggestions on what to use to block this door frame?

[severe trout]

Wall planters on both sides

It’s the big tall slightly angled one that you’ll collect carbon from

[hardy oracle]

Only for a while. Totally possible that you saw me there though! It was a little too laggy for my liking so I left after a bit

[kind glacier]

hmmm. it could work for some rooms, but not all

any other suggestions that are more industrial or neutral looking?

[smoky dawn]

I’m pretty sure I saw yours then! I went around taking photos with ships that caught my attention

(It wouldn’t let me adjust the brightness any more but I’m pretty sure this was yours unless there was a copycat)

I should really try making a smaller corvette at some point..

[severe trout]

Figure out a way to place any panel in a way that covered the door, make it a grey to match the titan hab interior, and put hanging wire decor all over it maybe? I can’t think of anything else.

[hardy oracle]

Yep, that's the one!

[mild stratus]

@wraith quiver too much bubble ducting?

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

[wraith quiver]

man we just have such different styles. you do so much that i would never do but you actually make it work lmfaoo pissesss meeee offfff

idk i dont think that looks bad at al

[flint plover]

yeah that looks cool

[severe trout]

Is it possible to put landing pads on a corvette? It would be cool to be able to have a friends ship deploy from my corvette just in case we encounter space battles

[mild stratus]

😂 we gotta get creative if we wanna make the perfect autophage ship mines just a new age autophage ship less rust 😅

[hardy oracle]

It wasn't really what I set out to do, but I think mine might have a vaguely autophage look to it. Even if it's just because it's rugged and worn 🙂

[flint plover]

@abstract crow may i ask you, what allows you to make your massive ginormous corvettes? They must be like three times the max length a space station lets you build normally. So is it some mod that removes the size restrictions or something? If so, i want it too 🙂

[mild stratus]

The only reason I can't have the rusty paint on my ship is because it doesn't work with the pink lights at least I don't think

[abstract crow]

Yeah, there is a mod. But you can also kinda cheese your parts past the barriers without it.

[wraith quiver]

i keep wanting to make a damn streamline ship but it always ends up looking generic as hell

[abstract crow]

Not to that magnitude, though.

[mild stratus]

Wdym by streamline?

[abstract crow]

And you gotta remember that a ship this size might cause a lot of issues online.

[analog steeple]

Are you able to sell corvettes (trade them) with NPCs at space station, and then have your friends buy them from the NPC immediately after?

[wraith quiver]

like super thin

[flint plover]

i can imagine

[severe trout]

It makes the ship go invisible and glitched

[analog steeple]

Ah I see. I hadn’t tried. Wish you could give ships to people though. Thanks for the information

[mild stratus]

Ohh yea that tends to be a problem plus it's kinda hard to make it really thin

@wraith quiver just do what I did and give your ship a big booty and go thinner as you get to the cockpit

[flint plover]

what do you all mean by autophage corvettes? Just the style of it?

[wraith quiver]

yes Lego as best we can at least lol

[mild stratus]

Yea pretty much

[wraith quiver]

and Spider yes you bring up a good point in the whole rust thing

[flint plover]

interesting that people are already classifying corvette builds. So it's kind of like music genres then isn't it

[wraith quiver]

some decor allows you to use the paint all feature from corvettes and it will use the corvette colors instead of the decor ones.

[mild stratus]

Backstory for my ship @wraith quiver it was a secret sentinel prototype and my pirate autophage spider the black raided the outpost stole the prototype and upgraded it with atlantidum 😂

[wraith quiver]

LOL dude yours is similar to mine but makes your character sound a lot more badass.

[hardy oracle]

Oh, I wrote a backstory for my ship too!

[wraith quiver]

Mines more like my characters just a poor ol factory bot who worked on old ships. New ships came out and made him useles.. New ships ended up destroying the planet and themselves. Somehow the old technology was tougher and survived. so my bot had to resurrect an old ship model and get off the planet to explore and enjoy lifeforms while finding a chill peaceful paradise planet lool

BUT NOW im trying too make something that isnt so rusty. because i want to get into outside decorations and its weird as hell when the ship is rusty but the decorations are mint clean

[hardy oracle]

It can work sometimes, depending on what kind of decor you're using. I think it's fine for technology to be more recently maintained than the hull for example

[wraith quiver]

See that i agree with.

[hardy oracle]

A hull works just fine when a bit worn, but a satellite dish might quickly get distorted signals if you neglect it

[wraith quiver]

Like my cargo crates and wiring here.

fits with the refurbished rebuild vibe

[hardy oracle]

That's cool, I like it!

[mild stratus]

Mean while my autophage is living an a sea of atlantidum producing weapons of war and feeding his gek slaves geknip 😂

I mean gek employees 👀

[hardy oracle]

I really need to make some use of those cables too

[wraith quiver]

its such a nice touch imo

[wraith quiver]

im out here looking for peace youre out here looking for PROBLEMS LMFAOOO its all in the coding

Its on sight for the Gek always though tbh.

[mild stratus]

The sentinels killed my autophages pet her name was squiggles so yes MY AUTOPHAGE CRAVES VILOENCE

[limpid karma]

its pretty much just one ship someone built and put a tutorial on youtube about

[wraith quiver]

? i havent seen this ship lol

[limpid karma]

https://youtu.be/CWtjxxRA-N0?si=YmKmAklepHnxiuHZ

[wraith quiver]

oh ok i think i HAVE seen that

[limpid karma]

ive seen people with this but a different color in game

[runic bluff]

You can with exploits but as soon as you take off, the ship will stay in place and be left behind

[limpid karma]

wym

[mild stratus]

@wraith quiver more place's for liquified gek juice!!!....er I mean atlantidum tubes

[limpid karma]

wouldnt the settlement adjacency glitch work to keep them as part of the ship

or do you mean the landed ship

[runic bluff]

This

[limpid karma]

thats cool that they can land on it

[wraith quiver]

those give light too?

[runic bluff]

But you can't carry it as far as I know

[limpid karma]

sad

[mild stratus]

Bubble tubes do give of a faint glow in the dark if your referring to the blue light that's one of my hidden ish reactors 😅

[wraith quiver]

oh pft duhh i remember last pic lmfao im a FOOL

[mild stratus]

Ngl I'm glad I'm working on my ship and not my base because I went a little wild and now I need to build a whole mini city/town round my tower 😭

[abstract crow]

I'm still planning on converting my deck into a dock for corvettes.

Though I'm not sure how well my larger corvettes will fit...

[mild stratus]

Imagine nms with space battles/raids where you have to play with other people and seeing everyone's corvettes in battle or vettes coming of someone's carrier

[abstract crow]

Whole lotta friendly fire and bumping into each other

[rigid schooner]

Anyone know how to make a part vertical?

[barren creek]

any ideas on how to rebuild this lol. This is from darkorbit, ships name goliath, played this game when i was a lil kid, struggling a lot trying to get everything look right, what parts should I look for?

can't rly create rounded parts as i presume

[hoary agate]

Need to use glitchbuilding techniques

And create curved shaped from multiple parts probably

[ocean spire]

That design looks like a flying beer opener

[hoary agate]

No drunk driving regulations in space sooo

[small plaza]

It looks cooler in 2d

[vocal plinth]

who knows? maybe that's a planned future update and corvettes were the initial test 👀

[quick gyro]

👀

[ocean spire]

wont that be something

[viral crane]

I'm waiting for someone to make corvette car shaped corvette

[kind glacier]

so sad this divider can't be placed on the corvette, i wanted to use for it's intended purpose and divide some habs 🙁

[viral crane]

Dw. I'll be ur divider. Just tape me to the wall

[blissful quail]

I've got a question, if you make changes or deleted all the parts of my corvette, will I keep the technology that have installed?

[kind glacier]

the golden half counter goes really well as a hab/room divider

[twin jay]

I made an exotic corvette

[hollow island]

There's a mod that gets rid of the complexity limit

[magic badger]

not the exact same but this could maybe help you

[soft yoke]

That's similar to one of my older designs, very Nice

[magic badger]

I built this weeks ago after seeing a similar build on tiktok 😄 I love the aggressive look it has

[magic badger]

mind showing your version of it ?

[soft yoke]

Sure when I get on I'll see if I still have it or pic and send

[magic badger]

[soft yoke]

I sent them in DM

[runic bluff]

I think I stumbled across a minor issue, dunno if I wanna call it a bug

Wimgmen don't account for the size of the Corvette and will bump into you, sending you tumbling

[half timber]

When would short distance teleporter work in Corvette?

[woven gust]

Really wish you could remove the Photon cannon off of Corvettes. Taking up a spot I could use for something else. No longer have the Corvette part on but the mod is still there and unable to be removed or packaged. Hope that gets fixed in the future.

[mental matrix]

I'm ready for holloween

[mild stratus]

😂 what did you do to your windows

[abstract crow]

#2spooky

[mental matrix]

Lol idk

[soft yoke]

I wanna know to I like the green look for the windows

[cinder crystal]

When building stuff in the corvette, it's like objects are permanently tether glitched. Is there a way to avoid this? It makes building really hard otherwise

[hoary galleon]

I love making car shaped ships

So much fun

[jaunty mural]

Manually rotate or if you can, attach it to an object that can stand on a floor

[primal dagger]

going to find more parts tommorow.

[cinder crystal]

thing about manually rotating it, even without moving the mouse (so the axis stays stationary) the rotation randomly reverses so turning clockwise suddenly turns counter-clockwise, and vice versa

which makes it nigh impossible to get in the right position

[floral berry]

😭

[swift mist]

You really don't need to go over 100 to make a good looking ship

[cobalt flame]

I used some to connect a trailer to my ship.

[stark dirge]

Holy crap I thought this was a planet

[wraith quiver]

neato

[hallow verge]

Hiiii, quick question everyone, how can I get two vesper diffusers to join up like this? They're in the middle tip, at the very front, glitched halfway INTO a speedbird piece, AND joined together

[wraith quiver]

offset glitching

[hallow verge]

how

[wraith quiver]

once you get the diffuser piece set, use the rockhopper to slide it back a bit

i think itd be best to look up the offset glitch videos

not trying to be rude, i SUCK at describing things and i dont want to confuse you lol

[hallow verge]

no that's fair I getcha

but there's just so many videos ;;

[hallow verge]

I don't know which one's the right one

[wraith quiver]

uhhhh hangon i can probably help with that

[sleek oasis]

Possible?

[hallow verge]

I'd appreciate it :>

I wanna build this beast

[eager sky]

There's vids on how to do offset

[eager sky]

Check the pins, it's a few down

[wraith quiver]

youtube.com/watch?v=OviTjOwAfp8&themeRefresh=1

[sleek oasis]

Btw you'll need another glitch to mirror one of the parts used

[toxic remnant]

So I did the expedition and I got filthy rich. Thats cool and all but I kinda forgot to get the modules from that to this. How do I get stuff like the Pulse Array etc?

[wraith quiver]

Ah. hell is right youll wanna flip that arcadia wing with that glitch

[hallow verge]

which?

I'm still just barely starting with that thing, barely makin the very bottom rn

[sleek oasis]

Basically you put 3 small hubs next to each other, then a 4th one on top of the middle one

You save and exit

You go put a ladder in the middle hub/walkway

Go back in the builder, then you pick up the middle one and rotate it

Then it should be able to let you put other hubs into each other, and since they are rotated, you can mirror parts that aren't rotatable

[hallow verge]

I see...

I'm not exactly sure what pieces I'll need to use this glitch for, but thank you!

also I still don't get how to connect the two vesper diffuser pieces together, even with the rockhopper trick ;;

[sleek oasis]

The small hubs

[wraith quiver]

idk id just play around with the glitches for a while and learn where snapping points are located.

[sleek oasis]

All you need is 4

The Arcadia wings

[hallow verge]

[sleek oasis]

This is glitched, you can't get it that way without doing that

[jade pelican]

Anyone try to build something like this? (credit to the artist, I can’t find the original artist unfortunately) I need some tips because I can’t figure out how to get that battleship like hull built

[hallow verge]

Thank you!!!!!

[toxic remnant]

Whats the easiest way to farm for corvette parts?

apart from glitches etc

[desert hinge]

Is there any way to rotate pieces vertically instead of horizontally?

[sleek oasis]

Do you absolutely wanna farm them?

[toxic remnant]

Well..not farm farm, more like a more convenient method than the RNGfest that is llooking for salvage

[sleek oasis]

I just advise to make it free in the difficulty settings then turn it back to what it was once you're done

[toxic remnant]

You can do that?

[sleek oasis]

Of course

[toxic remnant]

...Huh

[wraith quiver]

Pause > settings > difficulty settings

er "options" not settings lol

[neat cypress]

!faq teleporters

[lament abyss]

@neat cypress Please use this command in #bot-spam.

[toxic remnant]

what are the other ways apart from this? This is like a sledgehammer approach

[wraith quiver]

idk theres legit and theres free craft lol

[sleek oasis]

It's either this or you farm really

[desert hinge]

I just duped parts for God knows how long😅

[toxic remnant]

.....hmm

I guess it is what it is

[desert hinge]

Anyway, anyone?

[hallow verge]

YAY I DID IT

[chilly valve]

are you on pc

[wraith quiver]

nice!

[desert hinge]

Yee

[swift mist]

sick

[chilly valve]

are you cool with mods?

[desert hinge]

Iffy, trying to do as much without them as I can

[chilly valve]

this you cant without

[hallow verge]

Well the technique I use is to just roam around with the corvette on autopilot while I scan for salvage points, then tag it, fly to it and shoot at it with my corvette. If the salvage is close enough to the surface you can break it open using the corvette's guns

[hallow verge]

THANK U FOR YOUR HELP YESTERDAY BTWWWW

[neat cypress]

Can someone point me to a good video that explains the space Station teleporter really well?

[wraith quiver]

What do you mean?

no prob! can't wait to see the finished product

Ok if I`m standing at a teleporter, the top left location is where I am at that moment? Like in a space station?

[sleek oasis]

We can help but you're also in the wrong channel

[neat cypress]

Go to help channel?

[sleek oasis]

There's #nms-questions

[desert hinge]

If you put stuff like reactors and shield generators on the outside, does it make them more vulnerable during combat?

[raven rover]

No

[desert hinge]

Can you modify a corvette after finalizing it?

[wraith quiver]

yes

[hallow verge]

dammit now I don't know what pieces they used on the side

I only recognize the speedbird nacelle

[raven rover]

underside?

[hallow verge]

No just

[hallow verge]

on the side

[hallow verge]

like to the left of the right-most windows at the tip, there's definitely a module on the side of the hab

like I can kinda see something here

[raven rover]

Front one is

[raven rover]

ik that back one but idk the name

[hallow verge]

already got that

took me hours lmao

[raven rover]

Lemme open up the game

[wraith quiver]

speedbird nacelle

[hallow verge]

THIS PIECEEEE WHAT IS ITTTTTT GRAHHH

[wraith quiver]

oh you see that

ok

[hallow verge]

IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS

[raven rover]

Back one is the small triangular piece

[hallow verge]

Which? a winglet?

hm

[raven rover]

Gimme a sec

oh agronaut aerofoil i think

[raven rover]

Yeah

[wraith quiver]

one of these

[hallow verge]

yeah I'm about to trade for an agronaut aerofoil to see if it's that

I think it is

Yeah!! It is!!

Progress :)

[hallow verge]

THAT

THAT

WHICH IS THAT?

[raven rover]

Swept casing

[hallow verge]

THANK UUUU

AUGHH I DON'T HAVE IT

FAK

[hallow verge]

ye!! thank u!!

but that's the left piece... now all I'm missing is the right one I highlighted there

[desert hinge]

What is the 'complexity limit'?

[raven rover]

100

[desert hinge]

I meant more what it means

[hallow verge]

a limit to the amount of pieces you can have on your corvette

like, modules

[raven rover]

100 parts max

[hallow verge]

windows and decorations you place inside don't count

[raven rover]

Not counting interior

Yes

[hallow verge]

:)))

just gotta figure out this piece now...

[raven rover]

Upside down backwards vesper diffuser

[hallow verge]

uhhhhhh

oooooo

I see!

It clips a bit into the speedbird nacelle

[hallow verge]

bless u dude

[raven rover]

Yep

[hallow verge]

...now I gotta figure out the top........

but it should be easier

[raven rover]

Which part?

[hallow verge]

there's more pics with angles on the top

[hallow verge]

all ;;

[desert hinge]

I thought my corvette was basic af compared to others on here, yet its already hitting that limit🥹

[hallow verge]

I'm making that ship piece by piece

[hallow verge]

this thing apparently hits the max limit

[hallow verge]

God I want it so bad I'm drooling

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1nnvyub/desert_hovercraft/

from this post btw

[desert hinge]

Mind if I share a pic of mine?

[stark dirge]

Does it have max stats?

[raven rover]

As for the front facing arcadia module

You have to do a glitch

https://youtu.be/y6Jdh3MhETw?si=Oq9BDPJY4qKQGctH

[hallow verge]

no clue

the poster only showed the pics of how it looks

[hallow verge]

BLESS

but yeah as you can see, the top is way better lit than the bottom, so it's easier to see the parts

[raven rover]

Yeap

[hallow verge]

yay! the bottom is pretty much fully done with this!!

[raven rover]

siickkk

[hallow verge]

I've only got one side done but mirroring that is no problem once I get more pieces

now gotta figure out this bit before moving onto the top

[desert hinge]

Why is the finalization process asking me to trade ships?

[raven rover]

Highlight it please

[raven rover]

You have full ships

[carmine silo]

Yo, When di they break the weapons on the Corvettes?

[raven rover]

2 more upside down vesper diffusers

[hallow verge]

noted!

mostly wanted to figure out the placement of the habs on the back but that helps

thank u

[carmine silo]

a few weeks ago. All my weapons fired where i wanted them to and now they fire... where ever they want?

[raven rover]

that piece in the middle back is a speedbird fairing

[raven rover]

yeah new bug

only in 1 st person

[carmine silo]

Great...

[raven rover]

sure, why not!

Y'know now I'm wondering if there's any habs in the blue area I marked, cuz how are the habs in the front (which I highlighted red) connected? like how would you enter them?

[raven rover]

Blue area could def have habs

[hallow verge]

hm

[raven rover]

The red part is probably connected to the front

OR

Its blocked off and the windows is just for show

OR

Put an elevator right in the middle of those windows

[raven rover]

(By stairs)

[hallow verge]

something like this?

[raven rover]

Yeah

[hallow verge]

Mm

[hallow verge]

Yeah I'd be fine with that, it's a matter of seeing if the modules that go on top properly cover every hab

[raven rover]

you could replace that 1 hab with the thunderbird elevator

for easy access

[hallow verge]

TRU

[hallow verge]

Ooo like this?

[raven rover]

Yeaahhh

Probably not the same as the original

That would save me a LOT of habs

[raven rover]

But i mean

[hallow verge]

like seriously

using FIVE habs just to connect that windowed area to the rest lmao

[raven rover]

I'd rather do that than waste a bunch of time going up stairs and walking allll the way to the front

[hallow verge]

Yeahhhh

[raven rover]

Yeahh

[hallow verge]

that would be a lot of empty space

I'm already using SIX habs

[raven rover]

Yeah thats alr alot

[hallow verge]

that's plenty of space for decorations and a nice cozy lived-in feeling

five more would be 11 habs

[raven rover]

Yuppp

[raven rover]

[hallow verge]

which is fine for a HUGE ship but this one's like

medium

lmfao

Yeah no I'm definitely not using habs for the upper part lmao

bless u for the elevator idea

[raven rover]

just use these to fill up spaces

[raven rover]

[hallow verge]

Can't really tell even from other angles, what that middle piece between those windows is

it could be the elevator or just a normal hab

[raven rover]

Yeah could be both

[hallow verge]

tho, it makes sense for it to be the elevator

cuz why would he only put windows on the edges of that hab?

you can't put windows on landing pads

[raven rover]

Yeahh

[hallow verge]

y'know what, even if it weren't an elevator

[raven rover]

but wait

[hallow verge]

I'm still gonna use it

[hallow verge]

because this is 100% valid and just as annoying to me

[raven rover]

I think he did this to put those hanging rugs

Or

[hallow verge]

maybe!

[raven rover]

Youre right

And he put up that rug just to add some stuff there

[raven rover]

I cannot fathom going up more than 1 flight of stairs

[hallow verge]

yeahhhhhhh

making a HUGE ship looks cool but

it makes it MUCH harder to fill the interior

[raven rover]

Yup

[hallow verge]

and walking from the landing pad to the cockpit...

hellish

[smoky dawn]

I go up 4 flights of stairs in this bad boy

[hallow verge]

really hope Hello Games makes it so we can use shortrange teleporters inside corvettes

[raven rover]

omigod youre a madman

😭

[wraith quiver]

goodness.

[hallow verge]

looks SICK but... my condolences bro...

your poor legs...

[wraith quiver]

does look sick though lol

[raven rover]

i just straight up put my entrance up there

[hallow verge]

Oh! @raven rover forgot to mention but the posted also posed an aditional pic in the comments showing where the cockpit is

[raven rover]

so i dont go up stairs

[hallow verge]

where on earth is it lmao

[raven rover]

ooooh interior cockpit

[hallow verge]

they also posted an older version where they had the cockpit outside :3

[smoky dawn]

It’s not as bad as it looks I promise 😭

The stairs line up

It’s not like I have to turn every time.. now THAT would be annoying

[raven rover]

should be therr

[hallow verge]

...now I'm tryna figure out what it's connected to lmao

FAK

so they DID use a bunch of habs on top??

[raven rover]

wait can we put stairs on the elevator hab?

[hallow verge]

MAH BRAINNN

lemme see

nope

[raven rover]

could just do this

[hallow verge]

Tru,,, might do that honestly

really don't wanna use so many habs lmao

or walk through them all

[raven rover]

Yeah

Just 1 hab at the top

Behind the cockpit

The single one

[hallow verge]

Basically this, with EVERYTHING on top covered by modules?

[raven rover]

Yup, looks good to me

[hallow verge]

:>

[raven rover]

reverse engineering a ship is actually fun

[hallow verge]

Yeah!!

Just wish I had more modules lmao

I refuse to use the creative mode way, it's more fun like this =w=

[raven rover]

I'd go farm modules at a moon

[hallow verge]

I like hunting for em

ye!!

[raven rover]

And shoot em from your ship

Saves a bunch of time

[hallow verge]

yems

[raven rover]

Completely valid

[hallow verge]

tis what I do on my other ship

[raven rover]

I did that for 2 of my ships and i just decided

Man

I need to build more

So i just turned on free cost

[hallow verge]

My Curious Interloper, which I use for gathering Salvage :>

[raven rover]

ooh compact

[hallow verge]

yems!

only one hab

[raven rover]

Very nice

my ships are all so huge

[hallow verge]

...uhhh why is it's landing pad closed

wha

[raven rover]

I need to build a small one next

[raven rover]

Elevator?

Resummon it

Bugs out sometimes

[hallow verge]

that worked

thank

[hallow verge]

the interior of mine :3

decorating the bigger one I'm building is gonna be such a pain lmao

[raven rover]

my interior :

[hallow verge]

AWUHHHH MY EYESSSS

🔥

[swift mist]

FLASHBANG OUT

[hallow verge]

needs more lights tbh

:3

[raven rover]

everytime i land at a space station

[hallow verge]

Hmmm I need to figure out what pieces these are

I know these are the Osprey and Arcadia wing modules

These are a speedbird nacelle and a vesper diffuser

[eager sky]

Speedbird cowling

[hallow verge]

u sure?

I don't think it looks like those...

[wraith quiver]

def those together with a ceto reactor

[eager sky]

And these are both Speedbird, Nacelle and Diffuser

[hollow island]

Those are reactors

[hallow verge]

uhhhh how do I put this bit in...

I can't put the osprey wing

[hallow verge]

the vesper diffuser looks like it's clipped into it here

as well as a piece I don't recognize to the left of it? also clipped into the osprey wing?

[hollow island]

you put it in by exploiting

[hallow verge]

Fairly certain they're not

[hallow verge]

If you mean glitch building, elaborate

[hollow island]

the part on top is

[hollow island]

Idk I don't use glitches much

[hallow verge]

??

[hallow verge]

Not what I asked in the pic you replied to, dude...

[swift mist]

the osprey wing is flipped 180 degrees. that's how it can occupy the same space as that vesper diffuser

[hallow verge]

Huh... I see...

So basically I'd need to make a U and put the wing facing INTO the ship, then delete those extra parts and put the diffuser normally?

Makes sense actually, thank u!

That actually also helps me with the bit that goes after that

Realized the Medusa reactor is also offset into the osprey wing

I guess the only thing that'd be missing for me would be the middle top, where the reactors are, and near the thrusters at the back

I'll show my progress tomorrow, I'm going to eep :3

This is kinda fun..

[swift mist]

just a heads up that rotating any of the wings to be "reversed" requires a different glitch

[swift mist]

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

[digital bear]

I painted it brass to get that steampunk vibe, but I'm not sure this is actually a brass color...

does this looks steampunk?

[raven rover]

top part is too smooth for me

[quick gyro]

It needs cogs

[raven rover]

needs more pipes

and cogs yeah

[digital bear]

okay, at least color isn't the issue! that's good! Thanks!

[quick gyro]

Maybe a green booster trail if you have one

[raven rover]

i'd say a sputtering trail would look better

[digital bear]

green is... emeril right? and sputtering.. Oh! sputtering, yes, I should try both of them

definitely.

[quick gyro]

Maybe try water pipes coming from those 3 circles at the top towards the back

[bold roost]

Not to be mean, but why does this man talk like an ai?

[digital bear]

Because english isn't my mother language... maybe that's the reason.

[rich geyser]

is this possible?

[hollow island]

Not unless there's a glitch that'll let you hide the cockpit inside other modules

[rich geyser]

You wouldn’t be able to fly it though right?

[bold roost]

No you write it great, just unnaturally good

[digital bear]

I did used translator and chat gpt for translate, because I'm no good at English.

[bold roost]

ah that explains it

[digital bear]

yup.

[gentle turtle]

I'm so sad I missed out on sputtering trails, it's by far the coolest one lol

[blissful quail]

I’ve a question. If change my corvette, for example delete all the parts and start rebuilding, will i keep my installed technologies?

[limpid karma]

interesting framing

[gentle turtle]

Yeah, I reset and rebuilt mine today and it kept all installed tech mods

[blissful quail]

Thanks mate, appreciated!

[azure lodge]

but it won`t install tech from the parts if you surpass the max space of the ship

[raven rover]

Its really cool but the effects dont work well on bigger thrusters

😭

[night arch]

I met a dude on here with a literal ship shaped like a pyramid it looked like this and I'm trying to get in touch with him again

[mild stratus]

This makes me want to play destiny again but the community is toxic af ngl 😂

[abstract crow]

Ah, the Bass Pro Shop pyramid ship

[primal dagger]

I wish lmao

[cinder crystal]

need advice on scaling glitching.

I have a corvette that was pre-designed, it has some stuff that were scaled down to make it look realistic inside habs (i.e. decorative plants). Now I'm designing my own corvette, and every time I try to scale down I can't get it to a realistic size because I get Out of Base Range.

I can't use wire glitch because there's no Toggle Wiring in Corvettes, I can't use adjacency glitch because all scalable items when small enough become Out of Base Range anyway. How do I do this then?

[sage wolf]

If it was pre designed, it may have been done in blender

You could also try the base glitch where you build your corvette (decorative parts) at a base and swap between base and corvette with Y on pc to get access to wires

[cinder crystal]

I have mods on so I have access to wires - I just don't have the toggle wiring button so I can't wire glitch

[sage wolf]

The base swapping glitch is for getting access to toggle wire mode

[cinder crystal]

oh really? I'll give it a shot

[pseudo shore]

I was just about to say it looked like the Pyramid from destiny

[pseudo shore]

Yes sir

[mild stratus]

Radar dish ontop of my ship? Kinda hides the bubble ducting and ceto reactors abit but also adds more to the top of my ship and looks smoother lemme know which you think looks better

[raven rover]

I like the dish

But you have to move some of that deco

dishes imo looks real good in the middle of ships

[abstract crow]

I think I might have to rethink the design of my corvette dock at my base...

[rancid sedge]

i need to learn how people build onto the ships with decorations

[mild stratus]

Now I need to make a corvette dock at my base but it's a water base so I could probably have an actual dock

[abstract crow]

I forgot that we can't really reverse in the atmosphere. Not that I could see where I was going anyway...

[cursive lark]

If you enter your corvette and open the build menu you can place decorations

[mild stratus]

Kinda docked my ship at my base lol

[rancid sedge]

The external stuff though?

[foggy depot]

Some of those are Wonder Projectors placed in the ship, some are with the mod that gives you more options, I think, judging from what some folks mention here and there.

[cursive lark]

The flags and stuff yes

[abstract crow]

Gonna try another small ship design. They never really work out for me, but it's worth another go.

[toxic remnant]

So I was making my corvette, inspired by the Imperial Corvette from Wh40k and when it came to the name, the game automatically suggested "The Spear of Devastation". Okay, HG, You know your audience.

[exotic spruce]

like with the wire mesh base building pyramid or just 100% corvette parts?

[exotic spruce]

there may be something to that - I do a lot of weird mixtures between base and corvette parts and the names HG recommend are always "First/Last Experiment" "Dream" etc. 🙂

[lusty raven]

Is this a general bug?

[fallow plover]

dang that second one is crazy

i know that took a long ass time

[raven rover]

Thaaankss

[raven rover]

The overall shape took me just a day

The microadjustments.....

[fallow plover]

i have something similar with mine and i feel the pain

[raven rover]

Ive been at it for a week now

[fallow plover]

yours looks like its got even more than mine

[fallow plover]

thats crazy dude

[raven rover]

Thaanks

Lemme see yours!

[fallow plover]

nothing too crazy

the wings took a while tho

[flint plover]

how does one acquire those unreleased parts of that last one?

[raven rover]

kinda looks like the milano

siiiiickkkk

[fallow plover]

yeah its loosely based off it

[raven rover]

you have to save edit

[fallow plover]

i watched guardians of the galaxy the night before 🤣

[raven rover]

i did the bowie

[fallow plover]

thats sick

[flint plover]

i'm fine with that 😄 but not experienced so to say. What needs editing?

[raven rover]

wanna move to dms so i can teach you?

[fallow plover]

i really like how the wings go up like that

is that a glitch or mod?

[raven rover]

Glitch with a mod

But it can be done in vanilla

I just used a mod to make it easier

[fallow plover]

nice

might have to steal that dish idea sometime 🤣

i like the back of it the most i think

[raven rover]

Yeah backview looks really good

[abstract crow]

My first real attempt at a small design is coming along nicely. Unfortunately, as with most of my designs, it's getting kinda chonky again.

[glad breach]

i’m also interested if you’re willing

[swift mist]

got any progress pics?

[abstract crow]

Even better. I have pics of the completed project. Chubby lil thing, ain't it?

Might tweak the tail section to make that part narrower

[glad breach]

never mind i figured it out, it’s the arcadia heavy booster

ambassador heavy booster

words are hard

[swift mist]

oh yeah she wide

I think it's those parts flanking the central habs since they're basically as wide as a hab themselves making the body look 3 habs wide

[solemn lintel]

Anyone know how to fix corvette modules disapearing from corvette's inventory?

[mild stratus]

Corvette+autophage outpost

[quaint steeple]

what is the like the minium of money I need to build a basic corvette

[mossy cove]

any word on getting more ship slots for corvettes?

[hoary agate]

Corvette takes normal ship slot so u can have 12 corvettes

[rancid oracle]

you can't archive them I thought so it's a max of 6

[wise jay]

I want to get rid of one of my corvettes, but I can't remove all the parts because it won't commit the change without bare minimum stuff. What happens when you salvage one?

[cobalt flame]

You can put a Flaming Barrel inside a Rockhopper. It gives the idea that the Rockhopper is about to expire 😄

[arctic storm]

woah i adore that

i wonder how hard, it would be to make a spatial from freelancer in the corvette system

[vocal plinth]

i love the build, and colour grading of this screenshot - good stuff

[mystic cloud]

I feel a bit lame to be asking this here. I completed a great looking corvette, and then went and finished the Artemis storyline where you jump through a portal and reset yourself. Now I seem to have 'misplaced' my corvette. The online resources I've read say it's likely still sitting 500 units from the portal, and I have to just find it and repair it. Anyone who's played this game longer than I have see an easy solution to rediscovering the coordinates of that lost portal?

Do I have to start writing down glyphs and recording them myself?

[hardy oracle]

I don't remember that part of the quest, but it would surprise me if you couldn't just summon it on a station or a freighter

[wraith quiver]

so you can get charts from space stations that will show you where a "monolith" is and once you find that, interact and solve the riddle, then give it an offering and itll show you portal leylines. are you not able to summon your ship?

[mystic cloud]

Nah, can't summon it from anywhere. I left that portal so eager to keep questing that I didn't bother looking for the ship. I summoned my one other basic ship from start of game, since it was there, and kept questing. Dumb of me.

Are the portals permanent. If I went back to that exact portal from the questline, and ported back through it, is it possible my coveted corvette is on the other side?

[wise pelican]

how to build

this photo is fire

[hardy oracle]

Sure, portals are permanent, the world is procedurally generated, not just randomly created. But I really doubt that's the way the mission work. Your ship is surely inside your ship inventory.

[mystic cloud]

I appreciate your taking the time to help me out. Thanks.

[hardy oracle]

It wouldn't be completely impossible that the devs forgot about this mission when they released corvettes and that it works weirdly, but the ship really should be inside your inventory.

[mystic cloud]

I'm definitely feeling some negative vibes towards the programmers at the moment, that the ship could just vanish like that. After multiple restarts, returning to home bases, etc. It isn't anywhere. Shucks.

[wise pelican]

left the game for a bit so not to informed but how many corvttes can u have and whats the max ships

[hardy oracle]

But just to be absolutely clear in our communication here. Have you looked inside your ship inventory? It really should be there and ready to be summoned.

[mystic cloud]

Fair, I'll look some more.

[hoary agate]

Corvettes take ship slot so 12 ships/ corvettes and 18 ships in cold storage

[wise pelican]

damm

[mystic cloud]

Primary inventory accessed from a space station terminal?

[hardy oracle]

The only place corvettes can be stored is in the summon menu, press X and scroll to summon, then to the colorful icon with multiple ships. It's available anywhere, just press X. But you might not be able to actually summon it in other places than a station or a freighter if it's damaged.

[mystic cloud]

Yah, no, it hasn't been seen in that menu since I started looking. Dang.

[hardy oracle]

In that case it probably doesn't exist at all anymore.

The last thing you can try is go to your freighter and then physically fly outside the freighter. There is a chance that it's hovering outside. You'd have to jetpack outside the base area of influence of the freighter to have it appear though.

[mystic cloud]

Well, again, thanks. I'm still feeling some kind of mean vibes towards the programmers, but I guess I'll just have to pay closer attention next time I'm warned that my primary character is being dematerialized or reset or something. Seems like sacrilege they could give me the tools to build an awesome spaceship, and then I go out into the world to explore, and then a fickle quiest just zaps it. Makes me want to put down the controller and walk away.

[mystic cloud]

Cool idea. Will try that.

[hardy oracle]

Easiest way is to build a door inside your freighter and fly out that way. Be sure to fly a fair distance to make sure you're not "in" the freighter anymore

[mystic cloud]

Ty

[hardy oracle]

You're not the only one who has had a corvette suddenly disappear though. I've started making backups just in case it happens to me. It does seem to be extremely rare. But I also really really like my corvette so it's best to be safe.

[wraith quiver]

dont give up bud. corvettes are still new so theres gonna be a few hiccups as they integrate them into every other feature that already existed before hand. so sorry that happened to you

[mystic cloud]

Well, it's why I came here to query about it. I did come here first, and I appreciate your sincerity. It's only a game. I can remake it.

[wraith quiver]

"its a game i can remake it" absolutely right, but no one likes their time wasted lol theres lots of us in here to help as best we can 🙂

[mystic cloud]

There was plenty of catharsis in this convo. Hats off.

[hardy oracle]

I do think the it is entirely possible that there's a least one quirky mission out there that just deletes corvettes and no dev thought to test it. You could post a bug report if you have enough energy to describe the event.

!hg

All good, already over it. I may get back into the game again like...next week. Or I'll just keep headbashing trying to find "the lost corvette". I shall survive.

[hardy oracle]

The devs don't hang out on our discord but they do really seem to care and try their best

[mystic cloud]

I believe it.

[hardy oracle]

By the way, this totally seems like a reasonable excuse to toggle creative mode on to recreate the corvette without having to get the parts.

It's just a setting in the menu and makes everything completely free

[mystic cloud]

Cool, cool 🙂

[wraith quiver]

tbhj i made a whole save for free crafting just because i heard of these issues

[mystic cloud]

Logging. Ty Baelas & Grief. /bow

[wraith quiver]

take care bud

[mystic cloud]

A'ight, I'm back. I'm an idiot (as I'd hoped I was). It was there in the menu just like you said, just in a deeper menu. Again, thanks for having the patience to hear me out (confidence to figure it out). No more bad vibes for the programmers. Adios!

[wraith quiver]

oh nice!

[abstract crow]

Still chonky, but I made a few more changes to streamline some of the ship. Now I need to figure out what I'm going to name her.

[urban bolt]

So, still dealing with this bug, but I noticed something... when all the corvette modules "rearrange" into the wrong places after logging in... it always gets set to the same layout. Like... why this particular layout? I mean yeah, the obvious answer is why in atlas' name is it happening at all.. but now the programmer in me is asking... why is it breaking in THIS particular way...

(this will be the probably 12th time I've had to fix this so the layout was ingrained in my memory lol)

This is what it SHOULD be. I've reset it to this every time.

[eager sky]

Do you often visit the Anomaly station?

[urban bolt]

I wouldn't say "often" like, maybe once a session?

[eager sky]

I've had the thing glitch whenever I visited there, so that's why I was wondering

[hardy oracle]

Maybe the particular layout is the order they were placed in? I'm pretty sure they know about it already but you might want to bug report it to be on the safe side at !hg

!hg

[lament abyss]

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

[urban bolt]

Yeah that was my theory too that when it loads the ship in it "rebuilds it" on the fly and it's getting jumbled that way. I even tried making sure the ship wasn't active on logout just so the game had time to build it in the background when I'm ready to use it. No dice though.

I've got 2 corvettes and it's happening to both of them.

[hardy oracle]

I've never had it happen personally .Maybe because my corvette is tiny and doesn't need reloading or something. Seems like a bit of a farfetched explanation since all corvettes have to be loaded when you start the game

[urban bolt]

It's possible that beacuse mine are so heavily decorated that it's taking longer to load and something is breaking in that process.

Like, I went ALL IN on the interiors lol

[hardy oracle]

Mine is heavily decorated too, but it's also tiny so even full of decor the actual number of items isn't that impressive

[urban bolt]

That's what I hoped my 2nd build would resolve. It's only 2 habs in size but still fully decorated.

[eager sky]

It's been a while since mine did it, and mine's over 100 and it's had the piece-by-piece render in without issue

[hardy oracle]

Yeah, I didn't really expect that to be the cause. Only reason I thought it could be is because it never happened to me and my ship is smaller than almost every ship I've seen posted here 🙂

[urban bolt]

I've also had this glitch happen mid-play. So it's not just related to logging in. I was usin it, bouncin between systems, then just on a whim checked and at some point, it jumbled again.

[hardy oracle]

People keep mentioning it happening to them so you're certainly not alone. Unsure how common it really is but those affected clearly seem to be frequently affected. I think you should bug report it just in case everyone else who had the issue didn't care to report it. Could be that everyone is seeing soemone else with the issue and assume they already reported it 🙂

Yeah I figured it wasn't super common. Between me and my other 2 friends that play, I'm the only one affected.

[ruby siren]

It really sucks that we can't make an accurate representation of the cover art corvette, but has anyone tried?

Who else would like some smaller landing gear? maybe some that actually retracts.. instead of the bulky ones

@solid sage Alright, to start off, good start. First thing that comes to me is adding some shape and verticality. What kind of design are you going for?

[solid sage]

Just making Car of corvette hands down as i look at my dads 2003 Corvette try to build it shape

I do know how just gonna improve without no glitches to be honest

[ruby siren]

But yeah making it more vertical should do you good

If you don't want the cockpit to be visible, you can cover it up for a windshield and color it black

[solid sage]

I know just want the view to see in 1st person tho

[raw wraith]

Mm... trying out more dazzle camo stripes.

Though the pattern isn't very organized at all like IRL.

[fair pilot]

Vulture

[rancid oracle]

now that is a sick corvette

[toxic remnant]

I appreciate what HG is doing but man, the corvette stuff is so jank compared to Freighter

The builder is a nightmare

[hallow verge]

Hiiii, sorry to bother you again but I'm tryna do this and I can't figure it out :(

[toxic remnant]

stuff snaps to stuff inside modules and stuff that you expect to be hollow isnt and why the hell cant you rotate the pieces in other axes apart from specific ones, lmao?

[hoary agate]

Building in nms was always jank

Like they never played game with proper building mechanics

[kind glacier]

omfg. i finally finished my ship's plan. now that i have this, i can finally finish my ship. too bad i have to wait 'til tomorrow xD. and yes. it has 8lvls and it's very long. it extends to the middle point of the next platform

i did the plan in google sheets xD

[toxic remnant]

Like, I wanted to make a T-junction with hab units and the game was like no no no, use 1 hab unit and 3 walkways instead.

But thats double the pieces required to achieve the same result

shoutout to the people that manage to make such cool designs, man. Like you folk are the real ones. Somehow, you've cracked the code

Mine likes like an ork shuttle thats held together with spittle and glue

[abstract crow]

Damn. Naming ships is hard.

[kind glacier]

use this type of naming convention " <Planet Name> <Type of ship> <random letters and numbers>"

for example my ship will be: Bal'Urian Capital Ship RK47

[abstract crow]

I'm aiming more for ship names you'd see in Star Wars, but not crazy edgy like "Wrath of Vengeance" or something like that.

Actually, that's not the worst name. If I made a Super Destroyer, I'd call it something like that, lol.

[carmine silo]

Name it "Stardoom"

or

planet Eater

[abstract crow]

I got the Eclipse, Midnight, Celestial, and my chubby drop ship is the Vanguard for now.

[carmine silo]

Void Walker

[abstract crow]

Eclipse is fitting considering how large the ship is.

[solemn lintel]

Looks like a venture from eve

[cobalt flame]

Probably no one wants to know and nobody ever use it, but you can spice up the thrusters with a Flaming Barrel and get a nice visual effect in flight and idle.

[abstract crow]

Your thruster is on fire.

I agree. I mean where the heck are those thrusters that are shown there.. or that cockpit.. ahh but then agian I also suspect that it's pieces that are COMING and not yet out.

[pseudo charm]

...8 floors? my god.

[sand arrow]

i can park where i want, but thanks for the input, (no mods)

[obsidian robin]

Confused about Corvette build. I read that to get the maximum benefits from installed core components, you should install three of the same component, like three zenith reactors, three ion shield components and so on. So if you install 3 of say 3 different reactors, 3 of 3 different weapon systems and 3 ion and 3 defense shields, your corvette will be huge. I know because I built one like that. But then, you would have to assume, due to the size, it would be very non manuverable. Am I missing something?

[sand arrow]

i try to be clever about how i implement them, the ui stops telling you the benefits of adding a part when you dont need more

[swift mist]

did you check the youtube video I linked? it's pretty short

[obsidian robin]

Yeah, wish is why I only installed 3 of each component I needed. Since each component provides different bonuses, you would install 3 different types of reactors and then to get the maximum bonus 3 of each......so it seems like to get all those components installed, you cannot help but to make a corvette the size of the death star.

[swift mist]

you don't need to minmax with the parts to have good stats

[abstract crow]

Form > Function

[obsidian robin]

My Corvette to run from the loading bay to the cockpit...takes about 10 seconds....it is that big......

But, I have 3 of 3types of reactors, 3 of 2 types of shields and 3 of 3 types of weapons

I am just wondering if I am not building a friggin monster that will be impossible to fight in space

[swift mist]

yeah what Roadworthy said, I would focus on aesthetics first

[obsidian robin]

That makes sense because it feels like I am trying to dogfight with a star destroyer

[hallow verge]

Ye!! It was very useful, I managed to flip the arcadia wing like the design I wanted to copy! :3

...wait. When you said the osprey wing was flipped 180 degrees you meant like the arcadia wing didn't you. arghhh

[swift mist]

you can cram those parts and hide them much easier too once you get to do some glitch building

[swift mist]

no I meant osprey

[hallow verge]

like, flipping the osprey wing upside down, you meant? I thought you meant turning it background....

[hallow verge]

yes

that's what I said

[swift mist]

180 degrees horizontal

[obsidian robin]

Ok...just wanted some other opinions

[limpid karma]

am i missing anything or have i done a particular part wrong

[hallow verge]

u helped me with the arcadia wing and with the osprey wing

[hallow verge]

...so like. The osprey wing would be facing inwards?

-# sorry Im very dumb and slow

[swift mist]

no still facing outwards, but its "front" is towards the back

[hallow verge]

am confuse ;;

ok wait lemme

lemme draw what I'm visualizing

[limpid karma]

how did you say this in gray

[swift mist]

that's pretty good considering what we have access to

[limpid karma]

the landing gear is weird

4 in a square and then a fifth one to the back

[swift mist]

I see 6

[limpid karma]

i dont

[hallow verge]

Something like this??

ok wow why is it transparent

argh!! I'm just confusing myself more!!

Basically!

@swift mist that video you showed me! With the 4 habs and using the stairs to rotate a hab 180 degrees so it faces back! Where the video used a booster as an example! Which you told me to use that same trick to flip the arcadia wings!

I should use THAT trick for the osprey wings as well??

[swift mist]

it's hidden behind one of the other legs

[swift mist]

yes

[hallow verge]

Alright thanku!! I'll try it when I get back home :3

[swift mist]

if you rotate the osprey wing backwards, you can place it at the same spot as the vesper diffuser

[hallow verge]

bet

[remote cape]

About as close as you can get currently. Hopefully they will add those actual parts soon.

[limpid karma]

not gonna think about it

[hallow verge]

Now I just gotta figure out what these pieces are... the ones under the reactors, and the one that also seems to be clipping into the Osprey wing

[limpid karma]

idk where it would go if there were six

[swift mist]

fair. we basically only have 1 reference image

[hallow verge]

oh and also this bit that seems to be clipping into both the speedbird nacelle AND the osprey wing

And when I figure that out I should be able to fully reverse engineer the outer design of this ship!!!

[swift mist]

I'm gonna guess that the red one is a backwards vesper diffuser and the blues are those small ribbed pieces

[hallow verge]

oooo you're right, it the back end of the red one does kinda look like a vesper diffuser

dunno which small ribbed pieces u mean tho ;;

[swift mist]

or the one that looks like a quarter of a hotdog

[swift mist]

1 hab long x 0.5 wide

I don't know the name offhand

[hallow verge]

hmmm

I guess I could try it out with trial and error, shouldn't be too hard

but it's basically like, a quarter of a cylinder? a rounded piece?

[hallow verge]

as for this one I think it's another spacebird nacelle honestly

I need more pieces to test it out grhgrhrghgiru

[eager sky]

Speedbird cowling, and the red is Engine Cover

[grizzled phoenix]

I play on switch1 and was wondering about corvettes. Can you have your cockpit right next to your landing bay? Also, does the ship fly weird if you only have an engine on one side?

[hallow verge]

Oki!! I'll test it out when I get home :3

The pieces behind those I'm sure are 2 vesper diffusers

just like in the front

oughhh I'm so close to finishing this ship... I'm so excited!!

[eager sky]

I'm not seeing Vespers, just Speedbird diffusers

[swift mist]

game doesn't take that into account

[hallow verge]

isn't the right one the vesper diffuser?

[eager sky]

And Speedbird Nacelles, of course

[eager sky]

Just Speedbird (Diffuser, Cowling, and Nacelle), Engine Cover, Arcadia wing module, and Osprey wing module

None in the build have that three-tone of Vesper

[swift mist]

check again, that's a vesper diffuser

on the right

[cursive lark]

Left

[eager sky]

These are Arcadias

[cursive lark]

Ah I was wrong

[eager sky]

These are all Speedbird Diffusers (2 with cowling)

[swift mist]

they're both called vesper diffusers lmao what

why

[eager sky]

OH, I see the misunderstanding

[swift mist]

I don't even bother remembering the names because they don't make sense

[eager sky]

Yeah, WTF

To me this is Vesper Diffuser, but it's called Vesper Diffuser (Hull Plating)

[cursive lark]

Wait

[eager sky]

I suppose my bad, but wth

[swift mist]

nah I blame the person who came up with these names

im calling everything a vesper diffuser idc

[eager sky]

From now on, it's all Vesper Diffuser

[zealous smelt]

Can you go mine me some vesper diffuser to make vesper diffuser

[swift mist]

after I finish diffusing my vesper

[zealous smelt]

Okay

Ill go vesper my diffuser

[eager sky]

In the set of Vesper Diffuser, could you give me Vesper Diffuser?

Nah, I only got Vesper Diffuser...

[swift mist]

vesper? I hardly know her!

[zealous smelt]

Idk man the vesper diffuser looks kinda nice

[burnt lotus]

Can anyone here recreate a corvette for me from a photo?(@me if u respond or wanna negotiate)

I'll pay 100 stasis

[zealous smelt]

I think we should pick the vesper diffuser

[cursive lark]

Wait

[cursive lark]

Don't want payment but I'll try

[swift mist]

can you post the photo

[burnt lotus]

K private msg me so I can send photos

[eager sky]

It's confusing Vesper Confuser

[zealous smelt]

You should be able to send photos here

[burnt lotus]

It's got angled parts and such, so yeah, might wanna use creative save, and you'll have to use YouTube videos that teach you rotated building and offset building

[cursive lark]

Oh God I never saw that

@burnt lotus sent DM

[swift mist]

I'm just curious to see it

[zealous smelt]

Is it possible to build large circular shaped wings/fins like on the back of this

[violet swallow]

with the current pieces and using the normal way of building? No

with glitch building? Likely yes

with regular building you could use slopes to make something that looks like a circle, but wont look as nice

[zealous smelt]

I just really enjoy that style

[swift mist]

yeah you're gonna have to glitch build or use something like flat panels to make that circle

[violet swallow]

i also like it, its a cool idea

[zealous smelt]

Or something like the vahklas from star trek would be dope

[violet swallow]

(no clue, im more a Starwars fan xd)

[zealous smelt]

Like this but with more fins along the sides to give it more of a ripsaw look

[violet swallow]

thats more plausible with the flat curved pieces we have

[zealous smelt]

Yeah

Im a noob when it comes to corvette building lol

[violet swallow]

if the ship is flat its possible, but add verticality or exotic shapes like circles and you can say goodbye to your idea if you dont know or dont like glitch building xd

[zealous smelt]

Is it possible to build a corvette for someone else and give it to them

[violet swallow]

no, even with the method for trading ships, is impossible, NPCs dont have the way to control corvettes so they just dissapear with it, and there is no system to gift a ship

you could make a design and then show someone how to build it

[zealous smelt]

Sad

That is true

Do people usually charge a fee to design corvettes

[solid sage]

sum do copy guide build of ships by watching youtube

[swift mist]

I have not seen anyone do that

[zealous smelt]

Yeah I want something a little more unique than a YouTube tutorial though

[swift mist]

what kind of corvette do you want

[zealous smelt]

Im trying to find a concept that matches up something with what I'm looking for

Kinda like a B-2 spirit

Or something like this

[solid sage]

I did my unique build of my own ship like i build this ship

[zealous smelt]

Or this

I just really like the aggressive look of things like this

But with the mag field thrusters

[swift mist]

this one looks easily doable

[zealous smelt]

Would it be better with mag field landing thrusters or regular landing gear

[swift mist]

mag field are way easier to hide

[zealous smelt]

Do you think you'd be able to do it and give me the list for everything I need or some guide to follow along

[swift mist]

I'll give it a try

[zealous smelt]

Or do you know anyone who could

Yoo

Huge

[solid sage]

Sneak peak of new ship design i made has 6 turrets very deadly fighter ship

my psn plus ran out but still play NMS offline to show off sum corvette ship designs still using my phone tho.

[uncut estuary]

ambassador sublight thruster is slightly more forward on one side than it is the other. literally unplayable

[solid sage]

o

[cinder crystal]

are these gonna grow or no?

[solemn lintel]

with glitch building yes, i watched a few tutorials on youtube on how it works.

[cinder crystal]

not sure what the laugh react is supposed to convey, is that a no?

[wraith quiver]

they should grow i was laughing because i had the same reaction

but i didnt use those pots so i cant say fo rsure

[cinder crystal]

hopefully they do cos they're there for aesthetic purposes and if they stay tiny there's no point in being there lol

[wraith quiver]

thats nip nip? looks like the saplings of it. i havent seen a place that allows us to place saplings without them growing so best of luck

[cinder crystal]

yup, nipnip placed by the base builder app cos scaling objects in corvettes is a nightmare

[toxic remnant]

If youre making a big combat focused corvette, call it The Litany of Litany's Litany

[crimson canopy]

If only building on corvette walls didn't make me want to explode

If only we had doors man, jesus.

[sleek oasis]

Where's the fucking bone meal hello games

Plants takes forever to grow

[solemn lintel]

i hate how the camera has a seizure everytime im buildint the interior like that

[tranquil hedge]

chat, im not too familiar with the bases building parts. If you were to build this little shape, what part would you say look best and fit the shape in the pic? minus the grill (even if you build outside of the game with base app or blender)

[cinder crystal]

there are mods to speed it up, but my concern is more that since I placed it in a pail with a 3rd party app, does the game even register it as a growing plant? 😂

[balmy cedar]

Anyone else like those leg thrusters?

[balmy cedar]

Hmmm

Now that's an interesting puzzle friend. I'm gonna look into that

[hallow verge]

@swift mist It's almost done....

[swift mist]

lookin good

[quick gyro]

They should host Corvette build competitions

For the server

[wraith quiver]

Damn dog you been WORKING on that.

I love how it’s been a learning experience for you

[hallow verge]

Awawawa... ye! Been working on this for the past couple of days :>

It's been a very fun project, to reverse engineer a ship someone shared!

I'd do it more but honestly I LOVE the homey feel of this one =w=

[hallow verge]

Not sure I'd want another ship after this >:3

Also it HAS been a bit annoying grinding for all the parts

If I ever reverse engineer another ship I might just enable the free build mode tbh

but for now it's slightly annoying but also fun

It's also been fun asking for help here!! Y'all awe awesome 💙
