[blissful gorge]

yay! ❤️

[trail hornet]

need help with the sides of this thing if anyone's available

ignore the monitor distortion i can't screenshot rn 😔

[blissful gorge]

i mean ur on pc... 😢 just window key shift s

[trail hornet]

that piece under the cowlings next to the cockpit is an inverted rockhopper propellor

[trail hornet]

yea i just can't transfer them to my phone rn

[blissful gorge]

its very flat. maybe continue the pattern you started with the triangle pieces?

[trail hornet]

i'ma try lol

rockhopper wings could work

[abstract crow]

I forgot the name of the piece but there is a diffuser that's meant to go on the side of another object that I use for things like that.

[trail hornet]

god damnit i built the whole thing off centered 😭

uuuuggghhhh

[abstract crow]

Oops. Forgot to crop

[trail hornet]

is there any easy way to center a corvette?

[abstract crow]

This thing

[trail hornet]

its so off set 😭

[trail hornet]

i think i got it but thank you regardless

[trail hornet]

i used a few weird tricks so its not as easy as copying it over 😔

[glass surge]

I would take off the vesper pieces that make up the point because they look incomplete with nothing on the bottom and put the speedbird matching piece on the bottom of the forward one if possible.

Maybe extended the wing design slight forward to be able to extended the points forward more

[sleek oasis]

what we thinking?

[trail hornet]

looks sick man 🫡

[sleek oasis]

that's good, you can use glitches to off set pieces by small amounts like that instead of the usual half block

[lapis merlin]

Thanks for the suggestions! If I put something under the front point it just looks too chunky and then it doesn’t have this sleek side profile

[trail hornet]

dude that looks sick!!!

[cursive lark]

Arcadia wings

[lapis merlin]

Thanks! Glad you think so!!

[terse kestrel]

That looks great but be careful of the scaffolding. It brings down your maneuverability

I had scaffolding connecting the arms in those two places. Deleted the scaffolding and maneuverability went up by 26.

[sleek oasis]

maneuverability isn't really an issue, got over 2k

[terse kestrel]

Regular hull additions in the same place as scaffolding have wide variance and how they affect your maneuverability

[terse kestrel]

3k or bust 😂

[sleek oasis]

3k is too much for a big ship

feels really unrealistic

[terse kestrel]

There's way too much reality breaking stuff in this game for me to take that into consideration often.

Like you got people wanting the planets to have realistic distances between each other. Hell no. I did that in elite dangerous. It gets old

[trail hornet]

hell yeah, fixed it

[long pawn]

Ooo! Nice clean build, @remote crypt.

[abstract crow]

Tbf, Corvettes are like the middle child between regular star ships and frigates

So maneuverability is pretty high for most designs. Realistically

Not my monster ships though. They rightfully handle like barges.

[sleek oasis]

ngl we should really have a separate inventory for corvettes and old ships

[carmine nacelle]

Anyone here got any small corvette designs that fit a lot but also don't require stairs and have the design still look really cool

My current corvette is the razor crest and has two floors and since stairs are awful id like another corvette but smaller

[cursive lark]

I have one that has stairs but they can easily be removed, I'll hop on in a sec and get some screenshots

[carmine nacelle]

Ty

[cursive lark]

The upstairs is one completely decorational hab

[lapis merlin]

3k is rookie numbers lol

[carmine nacelle]

So optional

That sounded blunt sorry

[sleek oasis]

with no supercharged on the pulse engines are is it because of the time of the screenshots?

[lapis merlin]

Small like this? Walkable areas include Thunderbird landing bay and Titan cockpit

[carmine nacelle]

Is your ship in two halves?

[blissful gorge]

3k is enough, over 4k can get glitchy

[lapis merlin]

Three parts

[blissful gorge]

but yeah going less than 3k i dont understand the reason to punish yourself personally, wouldnt be my choice lol

[carmine nacelle]

Smaller and only one floor. Or is this smaller than how I'm perceiving it?

[carmine nacelle]

Damn

[blissful gorge]

#nms-showcase-corvettes message this is 1 floor but it would be hard to reproduce

[lapis merlin]

One floor, basically just a landing bay and cockpit with all the tech I could fit in her lol

[sleek oasis]

over 2k is enough, under is eh

[blissful gorge]

still playing with open interiors, although this ramp piece sucks

[carmine nacelle]

Ah wicked

[blissful gorge]

nuh uh, 1.99k is enough

[blissful gorge]

ugh no good ramp piece for humans, this one has a lip

[sleek oasis]

noob smh

[carmine nacelle]

Wow. That's sick

[sleek oasis]

this looks more like an industrial type ship than a bounty hunter or something else?

[blissful gorge]

looks like a mining ship from eve online

[lapis merlin]

Thanks!

[glass surge]

This looks like a ship from the Minmatar faction in EVE online to me

[blissful gorge]

looks more like a venture than a rifter

i wish the scaffold pieces were... different i guess. I like the way you used them there, hard to make them look good the way you did

actually... supreme commander?

[blissful gorge]

^ is this your inspo? lol

[sleek oasis]

Can't wait for the fucking landing pads to be fixed

And the hatch

[blissful gorge]

whats wrong with hatches?

[cobalt flame]

what not?

[sleek oasis]

They don't always close

[carmine nacelle]

All they need to do is either fix the stairs or allow for small teleporters on board

[glass surge]

Need a corvette sound for "The Hatch is Ajar"

[carmine nacelle]

Or have it so uou can get straight to the cockpit from the outside if you wanted

[sleek oasis]

I also want a Corvette part that works as a mini garage for 1 legacy ship

Think that could be cool

[carmine nacelle]

This

I just need the stairs to not be ass

[sleek oasis]

I want to travel in my Corvette but explore planets in my legacy ships since they're more nimble and small

[sleek oasis]

I'll need to do a pointy boy like this next

[abstract crow]

Give us a part that's like an air lock so we can dock smaller ships on the hull of our corvettes.

[blissful gorge]

Doesn't seem like a problem to me lol, bigger issue if they don't always open

pretty good progress on this today, just gotta do the other side and the wings. interior is open/habless, except for bottom where front/rear hatches are

especially pleased with the middle and main engine, the cockpit is always a pain on this ship ( this is my 4th or 5th iteration)

[spare badge]

What y’all think?

[blissful gorge]

great use of parts! looks like a youtube video i saw

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWtjxxRA-N0 this one

[sleek oasis]

its still an issue that needs fixing, an hatch and landing pads not closing shouldn't be a bug in the first place

[blissful gorge]

lol yeah how dare they

[tall drift]

they don’t

i have an open roof on my corvette for this reason

[errant kelp]

Is this good for a corvette?

[trail hornet]

holy hell

[twilit quail]

I have joined the big corvette club 😔

[twilit quail]

don't worry gunter I'm still here

ngl I don't think I'm done with it yet but like

I'm still pretty happy with how it came out all things considered

has enough space inside for every storage unit, four refiners and then some too

[trail hornet]

i loooove the engine shape/design!!

[twilit quail]

once I got that part figured out I felt like I had to finish it, it's easily my favorite part of the whole ship

[trail hornet]

niceee

[twilit quail]

thank you 😌

[solid sage]

Here's a trick with landing thruster 3 different angles so u see how its made for any ship design later will make better cleaner version of this setup i did

[smoky dawn]

Took a break from shipbuilding for a while but I’m back now

Each third is a different color.. idk I wanted to try it out

[trail hornet]

thats cool!!

[tall drift]

how can i make my corvette more maneuverable? I have tried to add as many "maneuverability+" components as i can, and i've hit about 1000 maneuverability, but it still feels downright sluggish, especially in atmosphere, especially compared to my ol' reliable exotic ship

[twilit quail]

how's your tech set up?

[twilit quail]

aha

[tall drift]

?

[twilit quail]

try rearranging your pulse drive tech to form a rectangle rather than how you have it now

let me hop back in to take a screenshot of mine to show you what I mean

well.. mine's almost a square, but you get the point

[tall drift]

oooh

[twilit quail]

(I also have three super charged slots placed conveniently in the top right corner but still)

[tall drift]

i have the tech set up the way i do so that i can take advantage of the supercharged slots

[solid sage]

This my sleek ship ive kept but here its stats knowing have 6 turrets on this Corvette.

[twilit quail]

where are they located?

[wise jay]

Each time I go from corvette to regular starship, my tech modules get all jumbled.

[tall drift]

if the phase beam is located at A1 and the arcadia heavy booster is at C10, then the supercharged slots are at B7, B10, and C8

[solid sage]

same but i found a way to fix that

[twilit quail]

I appreciate the way you explained that

[tall drift]

haha, i work in a field where i have to explain technical things in as clear a way as possible

[twilit quail]

if that's the case, then yeah, you ironically might have to go all in on the maneuverability which.. actually isn't a bad thing

its honestly my preference

[wise jay]

Were you responding to me? I'd love to know how to stop it.

[twilit quail]

and seeing as you technically could get one more tech for your pulse drive (once space permits) you still have performance on the table in the future too

[tall drift]

i do have some more space not shown!

i hav ethirty-six slots right now and i am grinding for more

[twilit quail]

gotcha

then yeah, ideally get your pulse drive tech centered around your pulse drive module with the strongest of the set being in the super charged slots

[solid sage]

ya what i did was rearrange all the slots when it got random switch around so i went through to put them back where i had them then i change to my other corvette build did same thing as i go through all i check them all so they stay where they at permanently so every time i change my corvette they stay the same

[tall drift]

ok thanks

[twilit quail]

👍

[solid sage]

only takes 10mins or less depends how many corvettes u have

i have 9 corvette's 3 starships if i wanted could add new corvette

[wise jay]

Afraid I am not grasping what you mean. That sounds like fixing it every time

[solid sage]

i only did one time and everything stay exactly where they are

[wise jay]

Oh, I've had to fix them several times so far even though I essentially did the same thing if I'm understanding you correctly.

[rugged jolt]

Has anyone considered decking out an edmund fitzgerald style corvette?

[solid sage]

other way i did i fill every slot leaving one slot empty

[twilit quail]

c-can that fit..?

[solid sage]

here i show u

[proud cairn]

I mean that is a design that popps up in ships too but I don't think anyone here has done it yet

[solid sage]

One ship i change to other then switch bk still same

[wise jay]

Another issue I've run into is that after I finished the expedition and copied out my corvette, after I had used a regular starship and went to recall my corvette, there is a phantom entry for it in the quick menu that brings an invisible ship that I cannot board. I managed to get back to the real one by using the freighter and changed the name of the ship, and now I can call that one no problem, but the phantom is still there under the original name. I'm wary of doing any corvette stuff until there is another patch.

[wise jay]

OK, I'll try using another corvette and see if that stops it.

[rugged jolt]

I just love the older great lakes style freighters. A ship designed off of one would be super cool to see.

[trail hornet]

is there a bug where the cargo door opens when you warp in 3rd person?

[wise jay]

Yup

[trail hornet]

damn

[delicate spire]

is there a website where you can build a corvette and itll tell you the pieces you need?

[solid sage]

Swap to my romulan ship and swap bk.

Ive miss spell ship name

[wise jay]

Interesting that when I teleport to one of my own bases, the corvette ends up in some goofy spot even though I have landing pads (I know those aren't supposed to work for corvettes), but when I teleport to a settlement, it plops it right down on the landing pad there.

[solid sage]

Thats the problem i discovered

Only teleporting that cause that issue

For all ur Corvette get random place around in ur slots for ur ships

So i avoid teleporting

Hopefully it gets fix

[pseudo charm]

make sure you are reporting that to HG that you found a potential cause. That's a GREAT find and might help them to fix it!

[solid sage]

will do

and how i know that i teleport few times that all my ships slot to randomize so not just corvette also effect starships too

fact only occurs if u teleport from anomaly but if from space station ur good safe i did do father testing of the cause of all ships slots to randomize

[glass surge]

I organized my corvette cache to how the build menu is and it looks so much better

[solid sage]

So if anyone have time you can try it out and check ur ships after u teleport from anomaly then try space station teleportation so u know that's how i know what is causing it.

Welcome to try

#nms-showcase-corvettes

For me the Corvette Mission radar is bugged as if i go into the right side of it i clip in and i get stuck and have to reload; going to report it but just as a heads up. :edit this is only really with Ambassador Habs

[cursive idol]

this was annoying to build any thoughts on how to make the top bit better

kinda weird atm

[wise jay]

Thank you, I appreciate the help. I'm leaving it alone for now, but noted this for when it happens again.

[solid sage]

Yw

oh another thing often happens if load bk on NMS aswell often times that i also notice too

so far im still testing for more issue that arise with ships slots so already going through to report it to hellogames about it

[solid sage]

now that ship gives a creepy vibes i like it

[cursive idol]

thanks

[solid sage]

ouu

pretty

look like golden ship

[smoky dawn]

Can’t park that there mate

This bug is so funny.. my ship looks like it’s petting the other one 😭

[heady dagger]

Trying to make a guardians of the galaxy ship

Twerk in progress tho xD

[solid sage]

o thats awesome

[balmy peak]

something broke while i was building my corvette and it only let me put my cockpit on backwards...

[mint vale]

There I went!

lol

[viral socket]

Is there a place whereppl can meet up at a planet to look at evryones corvettes, like an automobile meet? hehe

[glass surge]

Meet up for Corvette's and Anomalous Doughnut's when

[sturdy kayak]

I thought this got increased? (PS5)

[limpid karma]

you were wrong

[glass surge]

From patch 6.02: Fixed an issue that caused non-structural parts to be counted as part of a corvette's complexity limit.

[dull escarp]

How do I get max potential stats while assembling Corvette? I know depending on where you place your modules or the order you put them on affect stats but guessing is hard

[mint vale]

My mission C class has 2 sc spots, is that normal?

[glass surge]

yes but once you start upgrading the class with nanites, it'll top out at 4 SC spots at S Class

[mint vale]

I had a feeling. Thx!

[toxic remnant]

So got a question regarding all the corvette builders out there. What kind of design philosophy do you go for, when not going for a certain design etc? I am big into WH40k so I tend to go for a traditional pseudo modern ship-esque design with a prominent superstructure etc and a keel (even though, it doesn't make a lot of sense considering the setting we're in). Heavy bulky industrial look.

[glass surge]

I go by what the parts inspire me to; I see a lot of people like remaking existing Sci-Fi ships and that's fine and all but i like coming up with my own stuff.

I am however going to try copying someones Crab Sonoshee ship build i saw on reddit and give it my own twist but i'll have to do that in creative mode

[toxic remnant]

Yes. Thats what I forgot to add. Non Creative, non glitch, by farming and trading parts

[glass surge]

I pretty much use any glitch that will help with placement that hopefully doesn't break the game; really not into forcing curve builds etc.

Some modules are bugged out and missing in game right now and not trade able and you can only get them by switching crafting modes

[toxic remnant]

Wait. What?

Is there a list?

I know the Medpod doesnt function and it is what it is

what else is missing/non functional?

[cedar hinge]

lol figured out about that glitch yesterday

[glass surge]

several hull attachment modules; these actually. you have to do a crafting setting change to use them outside of creative mode

[toxic remnant]

Wow. Good to know.

[elfin tinsel]

where is this piece ? i have not been able to find it

[glass surge]

it could be in a different system; if you have extras of a different piece try trading it at the corvette terminal at the space station is one option

[golden fog]

I got my first corvette thing built

It looks stupid, but hey, I did it LOL

[hardy harbor]

It was added in last update (which fixed refiners) Afaik wasn't updated on Nintendo for a while?

I wonder why they didn't make medpod being analog of wall-mouted medical kit on bases

[hardy harbor]

Are you sure you didn't flip hub?

[balmy peak]

I've deleted the habs and reinstalled them multiple times but it doesn't seem to change

[hardy harbor]

Can you show the building pad?

[keen copper]

Hey does anyone know how to make corvettes colours we usually can’t get? I think there’s a colour glitch or something? I’m wanting mine all black

[limpid karma]

you dont even need glitches for all black

[keen copper]

Oh? How do I do it?? O.o

[limpid karma]

colors and then materials

[keen copper]

I’m confused? 🫤

[graceful sage]

how do ı upgrade the amount of upgrade slots in my exosuit

[hoary agate]

Space station near suit module vendor

[remote crypt]

Inspiration was from my favorite ship in another game, the Asp Explorer from elite dangerous

[remote crypt]

Thanks!

[civic canopy]

hey guys i need help with something

i have the mod that expend the part limit to the corvette builder

but for some reason now it says when i try to build one "all parts need to be connected" wich there are

[hardy harbor]

not quite related but sometime that happen if you manage to snap some part into illegal position

[civic canopy]

Ohhhh

I see

[hardy harbor]

Happene dto me with a reactor , it got snapped to side of cargo link. Which cannot be happen, actually. It became invisible and was reporting that. When I removed cargo link and placed hab there, it appeared.

That can be result of misclick or "camera was stolen by ship"

My new hsip got weird look in warp

[civic canopy]

Mmhh I see

Well I just use the offset bug for few pieces but that’ s all

[gentle turtle]

Is there any news or anything about the corvette short range teleporters?

Also noticed the noisebox requires power when placed in corvettes, but can't be powered by anything.

[pseudo charm]

go hunting for it. I actually FOUND that on a planet as it wasn't automatically turned on. Makes me think that maybe.. just maybe there are other pieces that are out there we have yet to discover

[elfin tinsel]

so it doesn't appear if you're using creative mode !?

[pseudo charm]

thats right. its not there in creative mode. I was suprised

[elfin tinsel]

😿

[blissful gorge]

thats the reactor cowling i want to say off the top of my head? guess i was lucky on my initial farm of parts before i switched to creative

[iron palm]

How many corvette ships can you have? I have my current medium size corvette but I might attempt a mini corvette build but I don't want to lose the current design.

[blissful gorge]

12

they take up active starship slots, u have to store/get rid of all your starships to have 12

[pseudo charm]

Oh lord a terrible thought.. I wonder if HG is ever going to make it so that if you put a landing pad on a corvette, players with legacy ships can land on them, that has been proven. But what if, the player upon exiting the ship can then enter the corvette, and will then WARP with them.. their ship still on the landing pad and intact.. ohhh the applications of THAT

Right now, as it stands if you land on a corvette in a legacy ship and then move… the legacy ship does NOT move with it. Stays stuck where it was when it landed

[trail hornet]

any tips for making a neat interior? i'm trash without a grid snapping system so any ideas would be appreciated

[indigo oracle]

This might sound incredibly obvious, but make sure you’re standing far enough back when you try to place things like living walls and med pods. The number of times I’ve ended up with a living wall accidentally placed either in the next room or covering the only door into the next bay over is……. Frankly ridiculous.

[dark juniper]

Debating if I should have the cool angular thing at the back bottom or the landing gear that weight-wise would make sense to hold up The Other Half Of The Ship

[indigo oracle]

To physics or not to physics

[trail hornet]

i mean with like the small decor items. sorry if i wasnt being clear 😭

[indigo oracle]

No problem lol, I’m clearly not advanced enough yet to be worrying about smaller decor items 😂 I got not business tryna add decor if I still ain’t got a handle on things like placing entire walls yk 😂

[trail hornet]

thats fair lol

[indigo oracle]

Looking forward to what other people say about that though! Since I plan to get there eventually lol

[lament arch]

decor items are mostly if you plan to stay in your ship long periods of time they have no actual use other than looking cool

[abstract crow]

It's going to be a long while before I get to that point. I'm never really satisfied with my ships and the large ones are way too large to properly decorate. Might block sections off with parts, though.

[lament arch]

i built the anisedora im sure i can help you learn a few things

if youd like

[cobalt flame]

Eh, it is there in creative mode. it's a piece they added in the recent patch.

[lament arch]

they need to add multi person cockpits

[blissful gorge]

do the shuttles on the wings look good? or nonsense at this scale?

[abstract crow]

It's not an issue with not knowing what to do, it's just a case of "This looks cool. But what if...?" and the next thing I know, I got another cruiser design in-progress.

[narrow zealot]

Is that the Serenity? It looks great, i would keep it like this

[lament arch]

ahh yeah i had that happen with a few of mine lol

[blissful gorge]

ye 🙂 neck looks kind of thick, despite matching source art quite closely in dimensions

[narrow zealot]

I like it. Did you build any other famous ships?

[lament arch]

i ended up building the anisedora

[blissful gorge]

might need to find tune the cockpit/neck more. part of the design is theres a ramp up to the cockpit from an open interior and that makes the neck thicker

do you consider the astero from eve online famous? lol

[blissful gorge]

i will say the rear view flying it around is awesome though, so thats nice for my own enjoyment lol '

[blissful gorge]

nice use of windows in the front part

[lament arch]

thats does look nice

thank you hold on lemme get a pic of the back

[narrow zealot]

I don't know that ship, but i meant famous famous, like the millenium falcon for example.

[lament arch]

mines from alien isolation "the anisedora"

[blissful gorge]

i mean these days firefly is kind of obscure. but no not yet. im not really interested in star wars replicas, they have all been done 1000x if you look around

cockpit access from inside the ship. trying to do more habless interiors. obviously this one needs some decoration

[narrow zealot]

That is true, but i didn't mean Star wars ships especially, that was just an example

[narrow zealot]

Looks cool 👍

[blissful gorge]

any ideas? obviously i enjoy doing replicas 😄

[narrow zealot]

Nice 👍

[narrow zealot]

How about the Starfox from Starfox Adventures?

[blissful gorge]

done. next?

[lament arch]

do the german impache

[narrow zealot]

Lol 🤣 No, i meant this

[lament arch]

this would be pretty easily doable

[blissful gorge]

good inspo stuff for sure. i have to admit though part of my enjoyment stems from my own connection/nostalgia to a design

[narrow zealot]

Yeah, doesn't look too complicated

[lament arch]

thats very fair tbh

[blissful gorge]

a lot of ships i like arent very well suited to this medium

[narrow zealot]

I see. What movies or games with spaceships did you enjoy?

[lament arch]

you might be better off bulding high design ships in space engineers

[blissful gorge]

im sick of space engineers

block building is boring

[lament arch]

i feel that whole heartedly

[narrow zealot]

True, space engineers has a greater variety of building parts

[blissful gorge]

(inb4 nms is block building)

starbase ruined space engineers for me, could never go back after spending 2k hours in the starbase ship designer

[lament arch]

yeah but sadly its a dying game

[blissful gorge]

theres some really awful community for some reason too, but thats a bit off topic

[narrow zealot]

They actually announced Space Engineers 2

[blissful gorge]

thinking of this ship. also already started on an eve ship called the typhoon

[lament arch]

i seen that im pretty sure its out correct me if im wrong

[blissful gorge]

yeah id give that a go when it goes on sale lol

[lament arch]

yeah its out for 30$

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

[blissful gorge]

this is a vertical ship I like that i think could be done within the constraints of this game. hardest challenge i think would be making a usable interior. i really like ships to be actually useful to play the game

[narrow zealot]

That a cool design. I build a ship that looks like the Anvil Carrack from Star Citizen. i just can't get any pictures at the moment.

[lament arch]

oh heall yeah that would be sweet

[narrow zealot]

Also a nice design.

[blissful gorge]

heres my old serenity, the first ship i made. I think the new one is better in just about every way

[narrow zealot]

That is looking great as well, but the new one is a improvement, i agree with that.

BTW, what are you playing NMS on? PC or Console? (I'm not judging, just asking out of interest)

[trail hornet]

if you mean replicas of anything, try zephyr 1 🔥

[raven rover]

usable interior would be REALLY hard

Ive made 2 fully vertical ships and let me tell yall

Going up 5 flights of stairs is not fun

😭

I just gave up and put the entry bay at the top

Straight to the cockpit at the center point

[blissful gorge]

Has anyone made teleporters work with transfer glitch? I might have to experiment

[raven rover]

Esp because the stairs are janky asf

[raven rover]

wait can you transfer the teleporter wires too?

[blissful gorge]

On my old serenity I have a roof hatch behind the cockpit and 90% of the time that's what I used to get in and out

[blissful gorge]

Idk haven't tried yet

[raven rover]

I dont want to go up more than 1 flight of stair

[blissful gorge]

Furthermore if it's transferred, is it still connected? Idk

[raven rover]

man they could just fix the alr existing teleporter

Could solve the vertical thing

[blissful gorge]

I mean it's the same teleporter

[raven rover]

No more fuckass stairs

Yeah

[blissful gorge]

But yeah agreed

[raven rover]

I'd like a ladder too tbh

Takes up less space

[blissful gorge]

I mean, option b is a spiral staircase of ramps. Could use base parts

[raven rover]

thatd work too

[blissful gorge]

Takes up a lot of space

[sleek oasis]

I need more ship slots

[raven rover]

But idk, glitchless options would be cool

[raven rover]

So real

12 is not enough

Ive freezed almost all of my normal starships

[sleek oasis]

should be minimum 12 legacy and 12 corvettes

needs to be separated

[blissful gorge]

Yeah I agree

[raven rover]

The 30 max legacy is cool

But the 12 being shared with corvettes...

big sad

[blissful gorge]

You mean 18 max legacy

[raven rover]

12 + 18 cold storage

[blissful gorge]

How can you have less than 12 corvettes

[raven rover]

42 total ships would be cool

Could just let us freeze the corvettes too

Or save blueprints of some kind

its sad scrapping corvettes

[blissful gorge]

Yeah I wouldn't mind Corvette freezer

[sleek oasis]

Didn't know that was a thing, gonna store my legacy ships I'm not using instead of scrapping them for slots

[blissful gorge]

Put it in the garage next to the starship freezer

[raven rover]

Yeah, its at the manage fleet terminal on the freighters bridge

[sleek oasis]

Thanks

Scrapped a few expedition ships because of that lol

[raven rover]

😔

anyways, heres my vertical corvette

Its shit to get into but i like it

[sleek oasis]

Tbh when you're on PC who cares, it's pretty easy to get them back + the service bot so

[raven rover]

Yeah, true

[sleek oasis]

Saw this build I wanna do but didn't have the place, now that's fixed I'm gonna start working in that

[ember scaffold]

So to confirm, the only way to currently get rid of a corvette is trade it with a space station NPC and sell their ship?

[raven rover]

Yes

[sleek oasis]

Pretty sure you can also build a new corvette and replace it

[raven rover]

Gl fam

yeah that works too

But the stats stay the same if thats what they wanted

and the name

on god, the procgen corvette names are so ass

[sleek oasis]

I mean look at this beauty, gotta build it

[raven rover]

Damn thats siiiickk

[sleek oasis]

This is the kinda ship I'll probably never land on a planet, just let it hover in the atmosphere and teleport to the ground

I also saw a consular class cruiser that looks so good, so gonna make that one as well

[ember scaffold]

Problem is I accidentally built a second and should've just remodeled the first.

[abstract crow]

Damn. Wish I knew about the storage for star ships. Rip my custom hauler.

[sleek oasis]

can't you also store corvettes?

[raven rover]

you cant freeze corvettes sadly

At least rn

So just 12

Max

[sleek oasis]

it's weird that there's an option to select them but then it says its not possible

[raven rover]

Yeah

[sleek oasis]

• 5 new slots let's go

[hexed thicket]

I tried my hand at something more industrial-looking, which is made harder by how little of the decorative items I have unlocked.
Also some rotated building techniques, deliberately kept to a minimum.

[terse kestrel]

Things like that are what I consider working progress over placeholders. HG is notorious for that

Like the command computer in space stations. We can obviously interact with it. And likely we will be able to run our own space station in the future. But until it works we just have everything in place with no function.

Short range teleporters in Corvettes as well. They are an option in the Corvette build menu. We can place them freely. They just don't work.

[hexed thicket]

The Corvettes are mostly just underbaked. There's a lot of the core functionality in place for them, but it's pretty clear they've been rushed out the door as a showcase of what's been going on and to keep interest fresh. So many things are rough and obviously intended but missing, and the entire thing is overtuned to the point of absurdity.

I'm mostly just practice-building with free crafting on, until something happens to fix them.

[fair pilot]

Which hubs has the less "built from scrap" internals?

[trail hornet]

i think ambassador but icr

[hexed thicket]

Ambassador. Thunderbird is maximum scrap, Titan is rugged industrial.

[fair pilot]

gotcha, ty.

[sleek oasis]

it barely changes when I color a decoration from white to grey, is this normal? like from the tutorial im looking it should be much darker

in the tutorial:

[quiet bear]

Maybe its just the lighting?

[hexed thicket]

It's the lighting. Note how much darker the rest of the parts are in the tutorial shot.

[tender kettle]

Has anyone had a problem when switching between corvettes that your tech slots are in disorder after you have arranged them it seems to me that run I switch corvettes sometimes my tech slots are jumbled again after I have arranged them.

[sleek oasis]

No, my paint on the ship is darker

if I use the same color it's still much lighter on mine

[hexed thicket]

The paint may be darker, but look at the little warning stripes detail. Yours is basically glowing, the one in the tutorial is dark.
If you're building in first person, your torch can cause objects with bright base colors (i.e. white panels and things) to glow.

[sleek oasis]

torch is off

[hexed thicket]

That's a gamma problem then. Gamma or just the local light.

You're not going to get the same shades of colors if your picture doesn't match what you're trying to match in the first place. If the same paints on regular parts are much brighter for you, then all the all-white decorative parts you try to recolor are going to be even more out of match.

[sleek oasis]

its 100% not as dark

[hexed thicket]

Well I won't be of much help matching lighting conditions. I keep most advanced graphics settings on the lower side.
That said, the ship-surface shaders in this game are pretty good. Even an iGPU manages to squeeze out shots like this every so often.

[sleek oasis]

i just noticed there's a black paint

gonna use that since it fits now

[terse kestrel]

Also remember that some people on YouTube who make the guides and tutorials use various lighting and visual mods. Not only in general play but also while building Corvettes

Bebblebum often builds with modded lights on the space station. Making it much brighter

Speaking of... Does anybody have a tutorial on how to build vettes vertically? I've seen people pulling it off but I can't find a guide for it

[blissful gorge]

i cant stop iterating on this. does the better shape make the appearance of the part clipping worth it?

lmao oh shit posting that i realized one of my wings is half a hab back from the other one, how embarassing lol

time to rebuild the entire assembly

ah nm thankfully was just an illusion from that angle

im definitely way closer with this profile

[abstract crow]

Well now you have to start all over.

[blissful gorge]

lol dont even joke about that i have to rebuild my astero from scratch so i can put some base items in it

[hoary galleon]

Finally got it started

[blissful gorge]

lol interesting what is that going to be

[abstract crow]

I need someone to build some Galaga ship designs.

[hexed thicket]

TRON square bracket ship thing, I think.

[blissful gorge]

hmm i should check out that soundtrack, big NIN fan

[trail hornet]

how do you get inside 😭

[blissful gorge]

not big enough to watch a tron movie tho lol

[hexed thicket]

I'd guess the cockpit connects to a thunderbird access hatch. There does not seem to be any usable hab space.

[trail hornet]

ohh

do those go all the way down?

like to the floor

[hexed thicket]

No. But you have a jetpack.

[lament abyss]

@hoary galleon

No gifs in this channel please

[hoary galleon]

Ok

Got ya

[trail hornet]

ah fair

[hoary galleon]

Using jet pack

[trail hornet]

nice

[hexed thicket]

Also if you're not on station, you just don't land and teleport up.

[hoary galleon]

Recognizer

[trail hornet]

never been a fan of the thunderbird hatches

i wish they were a bit longer and automatic

[hexed thicket]

Honestly the only thing I use the thunderbird hatch for, is a behind-the-seat teleport platform.

[hoary galleon]

I hope they add more parts to the corvette system

[blissful gorge]

their sole purpose is to have a hab with a hole in it

same

[cursive lark]

You're gonna get sniped by mods with this here

[abstract crow]

Tron made a Tronillion dollars opening week

[cursive lark]

Just a warning

[blissful gorge]

like if u have habs rotated 90 degrees you can use that to put a hole for stairs to another hab

[trail hornet]

oh sick

[blissful gorge]

sure is a lot of backseat moderation on this server, probably best thing is to just report and let mods handle it

[abstract crow]

I'm telling Gunter

[blissful gorge]

learned that from beeble. but yeah regular hatches act as openings from habs to open areas, and that one acts as a vertical access to open areas

[hexed thicket]

Yep, that's what I used for that ship I posted. The tiny bottom hab between the sideways access hatches has a mission board, some health dispensers, and a ladder up into a thunderbird hatch connecting to the rest of the ship.

[blissful gorge]

smart!

ooo i like the center thruster fan

[trail hornet]

how'd you center the thruster on the bottom?

[blissful gorge]

im guessing 90 degree rotation for symmetry

[trail hornet]

ohhh forgot that exists

[blissful gorge]

especialyl since he just said he did 90 degree rotation

[hardy badge]

@blissful gorge Rules: #nms-corvette-discussion message - Memes belong in #memes🤡

[hexed thicket]

The center hab (well, walkway) is rotated 90 degrees, so the two titan hatches mount to the "sides", and the fan mounts to the "front".

[trail hornet]

nice!

[hexed thicket]

They're the only rotated parts on the ship, since getting alignment right over distance is too hard.

[blissful gorge]

if you use transfer glitch with a window it will be dead on

[abstract crow]

I need to figure out how to do a shrunken cockpit design and rotate my bridge 90° so I can make it look better. But I'm not sure if I can stairs from a normal hab into a 90° rotated hab.

[hexed thicket]

That's only for the initial placement, I can get that more or less accurate enough freehand. Not all parts are exactly square though, so if you chain parts "sideways" it starts to add up.

[blissful gorge]

easiest one to do, put window on the front or back tip of a hab, transfer it to base computer (at a settlement so you land in same spot), delete hab, transfer back

i mean the snapping is based on cartesian coordinates, not the shape of the model itself

you can see this if you look at a save file, 2 snapped items will share the same coordinate

[trail hornet]

can someone really quick explain how to get 90° rotated habs? youtube isnt working rn and everything else doesnt work

[blissful gorge]

youtube is the best way, theres a good video on it

[hexed thicket]

Only the landing gear snaps to the grid. All other parts snap to snap points on other parts, that's how you get half-grid offsets.

[trail hornet]

youtube isnt working...

[blissful gorge]

i thought you were saying 2 parts snapped will have different angles, i apologize i think we are agreeing with each other sean 🙂

[astral viper]

https://youtu.be/4PAvTUx2GrA?si=gNIWjE_12gGjz5bi this work?

@trail hornet

it's a link to the 90 degree build YouTube for ya buddy

[trail hornet]

nah the entire site seems to be down on my end

[astral viper]

damn that's wild!

[trail hornet]

yeah fr

😔

[abstract crow]

YouTube heard you were looking for tutorial videos

[astral viper]

@trail hornet I specifically think I remember it being something about putting landing gear down and then snapping an antenna on the side to get it to offset if you understand what I'm saying you'll probably do to get it without a video

[trail hornet]

i'll try that!

[hexed thicket]

Quick and dirty: have a corvette, put a walkway down on middle of the floor so you can orient by the yellow line. Save. Go into normal build mode, into first person, and select a glass window. Select free placement mode. Aim the reticle at the very bottom edge of the walkway, exactly down the middle. At the bottommost pixel where it will allow the placement, place the window. It'll be placed weirdly and inside-out.

Switch back to snap build and go back to corvette build mode. You can now snap a hab to the window you built, sideways.

[astral viper]

@hexed thicket my man!!

I knew somebody was cooking that explanation up that's awesome thank you buddy I like reading it rather than using it on YouTube your explanation is way better

[hardy badge]

ngl i dig how chill that video is

[hexed thicket]

It's a simple way to do it, but requires precision or multiple attempts to get the alignment right.

[lapis merlin]

This is peak performance

[abstract crow]

The ultimate drift

[astral viper]

@hardy badge fr! dude has a way with his YouTube!!

[hardy badge]

i saw reports about a lot of users having issues with youtube yesterday. maybe they're still having issues

[astral viper]

This is seriously been one of the most greatest Discord communities I've ever been a part of

@hardy badge is it the YouTube in Discord

For a half a second I thought everybody was having trouble getting to the real YouTube I'm like damn I am not seeing this 😂

still new to the Discord thing I'm old I used mIRC

🤣

[hardy oracle]

Might just be a connection to a particaular region that isn't stable

[astral viper]

@hardy oracle that's probably it!!

[hexed thicket]

Or Russia. Or any other country that blocks Youtube.

[astral viper]

that's a bummer for ppl. hope it all works out in the end! have a good day and thanks for the knowledge!!

[abstract crow]

Probably the Gek. It's always the Gek.

[astral viper]

🤣 🤣 🤣

[hardy badge]

? nah, just the YouTube platform was reported to be "down" for many people. unrelated to Discord

[astral viper]

oh ok@hardy badge I was like YouTube is down?! lol have a great day everyone I'll see you in the stars I'll be setting up soon!

[hardy badge]

neat shot

i hope you're all getting ready for the October Sky image contest.

it's got two categories just for corvettes

[astral viper]

oohhhhg exciting!!

[blissful gorge]

i wish the big engines didnt have sprues on them, makes them annoying to incorporate into designs and suggest they expect you to just slap it onto the side of something

[astral viper]

I like the 📸 stuff I'ma start digging up my shots! @hardy badge appreciate the mention man!!

[hardy badge]

read all about it here: #contest-rules message

[blissful gorge]

thx for info ill look into it

[abstract crow]

I can't do a spooky Corvette design. Unless it's just a flying "BOO"

[astral viper]

YEEES ty man!!

[hardy badge]

boo works! just gotta make sure the corvette's dressed up for the haloween party

[hexed thicket]

I can only submit images if colored blobs in place of distant trees are allowed. :P

[abstract crow]

I wish all the planets in my home system weren't so blue...

[hardy badge]

gorgeous! we got all the deets here: #contest-rules message make sure to review the category descriptions. one's focused on exterior, another on interior

[abstract crow]

I need a tropical planet for a "spooky" sky.

[blissful gorge]

i mean no habs in my ship interiors is pretty spooky i guess

[trail hornet]

can you maybe specify a little more at the "aim the reticle down" part and beyond? i'm having trouble figuring out where to place it

also do i need to be inside the walkway?

[hexed thicket]

You placed a walkway on the floor of the station. Aim at the bottommost point of the side facing you, right where the outside face of the module meets the floor. With the walkway placed in the middle, the yellow cross on the floor of the build area will be right under the middle of the wall, so you aim where the wall meets the line.

And no, you have to place the window from the outside. Can do it right from where you're standing by the console, if you put the walkway down next to it.

[trail hornet]

OHH i think i get it now

IT WORKS

tysm for the explanation that really helped

[trail hornet]

how could i connect these three habs so i can walk between them?

[sleek oasis]

you can't

[trail hornet]

damn

[lapis merlin]

Maybe stairs to an open section between the habs

[blissful gorge]

2 ways, put a thunderbird hatch over the rotated hab snapped to your normal habs and do stairs up, or go habless in there

Go habless by making sure your floors have something under them, essentially cover your habs until you can't see them, delete habs, voila

Option 3: delete the rotated hab and put hatches to get into your normal habs

I wish there was a way to trick the game into opening walls like making it think there's a window

[hexed thicket]

Technically there is, but it's a glitch that only works while you're building. Once you save it the corvette rebuilds and it disappears. :P

[blissful gorge]

Interesting

[hexed thicket]

It requires a rotated hab for a titan accessway to be able to snap to, and two 'floors'. Basically if you scroll the mousewheel to rotate the accessway between valid rotation states, and as you do so you snap the ghost of the accessway (no need to actually build it) to a floor above, the geometry modification that happens in the hab when the accessway ghost is attached, happens on the floor below it as well. The hab, rotated or not, stays in the "there's a door here" state. Obviously only works on the "ends" of the habs where the accessways can snap to.

I'm assuming this is because the accessway technically spans two 'floors' with the ramp extended.

This state is very fragile and any building around the area can disrupt it. And, as mentioned, it only really persists while in build mode, so it's not very useful.

By the way, while discovering that I also discovered that the thunderbirds access hatch can also be rotated if put into this situation. It is highly not recommended that you attempt to rotate it, and especially not place it.

Because it has no mesh or collider in the rotated state, it simply disappears. If accidentally placed, it never comes into contact with any other parts, so it counts as a disconnected part - and being invisible and intangible, cannot be selected and deleted, and thus requires abandoning the changes done to the corvette design.

If you use another glitch to force the game to finalize the design with the floating invisible access hatch, the corvette permanently becomes impossible to edit in build mode, as the changes done to it can no longer be saved.

[sick kayak]

Wonder if they'll ever swap around the thunderbird and titan accessway names? The thunderbird definitely uses the titan interior design so it's probably the wrong way around

[hexed thicket]

I suspect what we have are the Titan series accessway and Titan series hatch. All series were probably intended to be complete, since a more high-tech "moon pool" style access hatch for the Ambassador series would also make sense.
The whole thing is woefully incomplete and it's painfully obvious. The only hope so far is that HG will do a HG and eventually hammer everything into a semblance of adequacy.

[sick kayak]

Let's hope so! I'm excited to see what will be added to corvettes in future updates

[hardy harbor]

Ok, now I started a little cheating and using non-corvette parts as corvette parts 😛

There goes CIC

[blissful gorge]

ugh theres always a bump here on every ramp piece lol. im going to have to put a base part in here probably

i cant just clip something into that piece that is the floor because its the hatch to get in lol

[blissful gorge]

i dont see the non-corvette parts, so ur doing a good job lol

[blissful gorge]

That's certainly an interesting take. I, for one, am very impressed with the wide variety of parts they put out all at once and the possibilities they provide. also i like the differences between the titan and amabassador hatches, i use them both very intentionally

[dusty valve]

do we know if the titan and thunderbird cockpits are swapped? the thunderbird cockpit looks astonishingly minimalistic and the titan cockpit looks very messy

[wraith quiver]

honestly ive always felt like this lol

like even the t bird cockpit looks similar to the titan walls without a hab.

while the titan cockpit shares the same ducts/hoses/wiring with tbird habs

[serene hollow]

I wish the turret in that cockpit worked lol

can someone help i cant access the cockpit to my corvette how do i customize the interior so i can get to it?

i watched a video and some guy had a ladder on the interior to get to the second floor but i can’t change the interior at all

[hardy harbor]

you enter build mode and what happens?

[rigid crescent]

i mean i can go and like enter workshop but to build the corvette but how do u go into build mode?

[hardy harbor]

zZ when near corvette (iside circle)

[rigid crescent]

i’ve had the game for like 5 days

[hardy harbor]

Just like base building

[rigid crescent]

ohh ok thank u

[hollow island]

Has anyone built the Malevolence?

[grizzled prism]

So I loaded my restore point on the anomaly and am now stuck inside a hull part of my corvette. All the ships I can summon in my quick menu to try to get unstuck are corvettes, and I can't seem to summon them. Is there something I can do to get unstuck?

[glass surge]

you might be stuck in someone else corvette, i would turn off multiplayer, reload and if you not stuck exit the anomaly and save outside before trying again with multiplayer

[grizzled prism]

Just tried that, can confirm that I'm stuck inside my own ship

[glass surge]

yeah no idea then and since you can't modify the corvette in the anomaly then you can't simply delete a hab to exit

[grizzled prism]

Indeed

I'm stuck inside a cowling piece which makes it even more annoying. If I was in a hab or walkway I could just ladder my way out

Oh! I just found a fix!

I restarted my game and it spawned me in my cockpit

[grizzled phoenix]

Hey anyone got any tips for asymmetrical corvettes?

[abstract crow]

Make it asymmetrical

[sleek oasis]

not sure about the red on the thrusters at the back

[autumn rapids]

working on something huge

this is the rear end design so far

2 hours in. i think its about 10% complete

[abstract crow]

It's certainly a unique design.

[fervent mist]

If I wanted to build just a very basic, minimal Corvette what would the total cost be?

[abstract crow]

Whatever it would cost to buy a hab, entrance, engine, cockpit, landing gear, a weapon, and a reactor. But that's skeletal.

Technically it's free if you salvage a bunch of salvagable scrap and get lucky on parts.

[toxic fractal]

Can I get bonuses from 12 reactors by putting in 3 of each?

[abstract crow]

No. IIRC, First three only unless you have a mod.

[toxic fractal]

Okay. And the same holds for engines, I assume?

[dusty valve]

unless it got changed in a later patch you can use the different types of reactors

[toxic fractal]

Well now I gotta test it, then

[dusty valve]

and get the stacking bonuses from each

you can only have three (relevant) boosters

you can add more (which i did) but its only aesthetics and maybe a tiny boost to maneuverability?

[toxic fractal]

can I salvage a corvette?

[dusty valve]

you can only have three relevant shields as well

[abstract crow]

I mean, you can use them, but you only get bonuses and stats from the first three

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

[hardy oracle]

Yes, each reactor type can be stacked 3 times. Medusas require a bit of special treatment since you have to place all three before placing your cockpit, otherwise the cockpit takes one of the slots

[charred lily]

do you mean unit wise?

[dusty valve]

no, if you use 3 of each reactor you get the bonuses from all types

[fervent mist]

Yeah

[hardy oracle]

8 mil if you're buying the parts. Free if you're salvaging.

[abstract crow]

I could've sworn it was only the first three. Never tried anyways because who puts that many reactors on a ship?

[charred lily]

very base model with just the provided blueprints is like 3.8 mil or so

[dusty valve]

me

[hardy oracle]

Why wouldn't you? How else are you going to get amazing stats?

[dusty valve]

i put in as many tech parts as i could

[abstract crow]

Form > Function, and though I'm skipping the part limit, 33 parts dedicated to reactors is pretty limiting.

[hardy oracle]

... 33 parts? Your Math isn't Mathing

[dusty valve]

reactors i feel are good building/scaffolding parts

[dusty valve]

maybe bc i mistyped 33 instead of 3

[abstract crow]

Oh. That was a mistype

Yes. 12 parts

[dusty valve]

yeah lol

132 slots dedicated to reactors would be absurd

[abstract crow]

Secret reactors we haven't seen yet.

[sleek oasis]

Each reactor gives different stats, so technically you can get 3 of each

Like one is movement, one is hyperdrive, etc

[dusty valve]

unfortunately i have no room for cosmetic upgrades

[grizzled prism]

One thing that's kinda fun is to make a kind of pontoon looking thing with something in the middle to bridge them. Think of the cloud cars from star wars

[abstract crow]

But still. I couldn't cram 12 reactors into my smaller designs. Stat boosts or no. Larger designs, definitely. But at that point, it makes very little difference because mods make it so all my tech slots are habs until I fix them via save editing.

[hardy oracle]

You can cram all of them into the same spot with offsetting, so 12 reactors doesn't have to take much more space than a single one if you work hard enough at it.

[dusty valve]

dont habs only take up 3 slots?

i have more than 3 habs but they only take up 3 tech slots for me

[sleek oasis]

We're not talking about habs

[abstract crow]

Not worth the effort for me.

[dusty valve]

roadworthy mentioned habs taking up their tech slots

[abstract crow]

Yes, normally habs take three slots. I have a mod that removes limits on tech upgrades, and I guess that means it removes the limit on habs in my tech section.

[dusty valve]

oh

[sleek oasis]

We're talking about reactors

[abstract crow]

So, all unremovable hab boosts, lol.

[dusty valve]

...yes, then roadworthy mentioned habs and i was curious

[abstract crow]

Also sometimes absolutely no weapons.

[sleek oasis]

Anyway, there's not enough tech slots to use the max amount of reactors

[dusty valve]

so you can stack past 3 reactors/boosters/etc?

[hardy oracle]

There's certainly enough tech slots to have all reactors if you wanted to. You'd have to limit yourself to a single weapon type though

[dusty valve]

wdym? you can put 3 medusa, 3 ceto, 3 zenith, 3 azimuth to a total of 12

[abstract crow]

I could figuratively have all my tech slots dedicated entirely to weapons and upgrades for weapons without penalty, as an example. I only did it for my freighter, though.

[sleek oasis]

tell me where all those 12 fits

[abstract crow]

Overcharge. That's what it's called. Yeah, so no overcharge.

[sleek oasis]

supercharge

[hardy oracle]

You've chosen to have two weapons and a bunch of dolls in your ship. If you value those over reactors that's perfectly fine. That's still a choice though.

[sleek oasis]

I've choosen 1 weapon

other im forced

[hardy oracle]

Three slots used to that "forced" weapon. You could remove two of those.

[sleek oasis]

only 1

I can remove

[dusty valve]

since ive put in reactors later than other parts, the final medusa reactor doesnt show up in tech. if i remove/place it tho i still get the stat bonuses

[abstract crow]

Damn. That's not the term either. But you get the idea.

[hardy oracle]

You can remove the array and the upgrade. You're only forced to keep the core

[sleek oasis]

no, my build needs the cannon lol

[dusty valve]

either way, you asked where those 12 would fit - here you go

[abstract crow]

Tech overload. Thanks Google

[hardy oracle]

Again, this is a choice you're making. This isn't the game preventing you from building more reactors. You're preventing yourself from building more reactors.

[spare knoll]

You can get rid of the habs and your cockpit if you delete them after building and fill the tech slots before putting them back. I don't have all the reactors, but I could without much issue if I thought it would be useful

[sleek oasis]

and im saying for my tech slots, for my other ships, there's no place, since I want more usefull things

[dusty valve]

then you should probably specify youre talking about your ship

[sleek oasis]

that's why I showed a screenshot of my ship

[hardy oracle]

You're absolutely allowed to do whatever you want. You're just chosing to not have space for reactors. Doesn't mean there isn't actually space for those who want them.

[sleek oasis]

I never said that

[dusty valve]

because if someone else wants to dedicate 12 slots to reactors, they absolutely can

[sleek oasis]

I never said it was impossible

[abstract crow]

Personally, once the tech shuffle is completely fixed, all my spaces are going to be used for weapons, shielding, and probably pulse/hyperdrive

[sleek oasis]

like me, and all those tech upgrades takes a lot of space lol

[abstract crow]

Maneuverability is going to suck to improve. I think my largest design had 300. Maybe less...

[hardy oracle]

I had space to fully upgrade all the things I wanted and still had 2 slots to spare that I stuffed with extra trails

[dusty valve]

ok THIS im curious about

[dusty valve]

ahh only photon cannon

[hardy oracle]

I wanted to get as much manoeuvrability as I could

[dusty valve]

6k manueverability is fucking absurd

is it worth chasing?

bc if it is i might ditch some weapons

[hardy oracle]

It's awesome! I'm skimming across the surface of worlds at absurd speeds

[abstract crow]

That would look absolutely wild on my cruiser design. Something larger than a frigate, moving like a fighter...

[glass surge]

I feel like it's going to be a balance so corvette's aren't over powered; you might build one and it's well armed but slow another fast but not well armed

[hardy oracle]

I think at this point I have more than I need. It does keep scaling forever without any diminishing returns though.

[dusty valve]

i have a p large ship and just managed to reach like 1.6k

[hardy oracle]

I don't think the ship size has much, if anything, to do with it. But my ship is quite small. It's only 2 tiles wide, 3.5 high and about 6 long. Not counting the landing thrusters on the sides

[spare knoll]

What kinds of bonuses do you have on you engines/medusas? I have everything for maneuverability apart from extra trails and one figurine and I haven't broken 4000

[dusty valve]

i have a mod that pulls back the camera, and even though i never use the phase beam in combat, it is by far the prettiest weapon system esp bc i have so many installed

[glass surge]

someone forcibly maxed out maneuverability to 50K on a Corvette (Warning if you're motion sick)
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1o7jdoy/50k_maneuverability_on_a_corvette_lmao_gone_wrong/

[dusty valve]

wow

[hardy oracle]

Do you have a Polo figurine with full adjacency? What about a Photonix core?

[spare knoll]

I have polo, artemis and one trail, photonix core's there, and all my pulse drive modules are x-class with 20 maunerverability. I can't imagine the squid and a few extra trails would add 2000

[dusty valve]

ideas on what to ditch? i wanna chase that maneuverability

i think size does matter

i know i wont get super high numbers but i would like to increase it a bit

[glass surge]

I'd chose two weapon systems instead of four

[dusty valve]

yeah that makes sense

[hardy oracle]

You can get way more stats than you currently have just by moving things around. You've got pretty awful adjacency bonuses there

[dusty valve]

my main focus was maneuverability

everything else was kinda secondary

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

[spare knoll]

if you really gotta have all those shields and weapons for aesthetics, you can strip them off, fill up the slots with whatever like figurines, then re-add the parts. then you can use the slots they'd take up for whatever you want

[cobalt flame]

I have a feeling size does indeed matter. I have one small ship with 4600 maneuverability and a large one, same setup tech only hitting 2200.

[hardy oracle]

There really isn't much reason to have so many weapon systems, buffing photon cannon to the limit will destroy enemies faster than you can aim at them anyway

[cobalt flame]

I don't expect a large ship to be agile, though.

[dusty valve]

i think ill do that for the cannon and the phase beam, but the shields are only taking up 3 slots and i feel likeir stats are kinda nice?

[dusty valve]

yep

[rich hill]

I have an issue where I only added the phase beam, and the torpedo tubes in the build but all 4 weapon systems show up and I can't remove them, anyone have this issue?

[dusty valve]

i think ill keep the photons and torpedos

the torpedos might be the worst weapon system but i like shooting rockets

theyre kinda cute

[hardy oracle]

Anyway, to answer your question, my medusas have 5, 6 and 15 manoeuvrability, my engines have 3, 6 and 6

[grizzled phoenix]

Hey all I would like some opinions. This is my Corvette design that I made.
Green is landing bay
Purple is cockpit
Red are engines
Blue is decorative
Black are the habs

For context, it is seen from behind

I haven't built an asymmetrical vette' yet so I want some constructive criticism

Pardon my handwriting, I'm on my phone

[spare knoll]

oh that's not even that crazy, what the heck why are corvettes so weird

[dusty valve]

i think it matters what meal you last ate when you were building your corvette

[hardy oracle]

Adjacency and supercharging has a pretty significant impact though. I have 3 slots dedicated to my x-class pulse modules

[dusty valve]

oh and maybe your zodiac sign

[ancient nimbus]

Glad I thought of coming to the offical channel for this game, also the perfect discussion board. So when making my corvette I didn't so enough research and I connected an industrial haul link to my cockpit and have no door to get out, I've spent the last hour and a half researching an excuting every idea I could find to free myself, but I'm new to the game so hoping someone here could help me.

[hardy oracle]

Your x-class modules are better than mine then! Mine all have 18 manoeuvrability

[cobalt flame]

Fly to a space station and summon a normal ship of yours. It should kick you out of your corvette.

[hardy oracle]

Found a small mistake in my own adjacency. Squezed out a few more points!

[cursive lark]

Remove hull link and replace with a hab module

You can walk in those

[ancient nimbus]

I'll try this.

[ancient nimbus]

I tried I can't modify or the games saying I can't while in flight or while inside of the craft

[cursive lark]

Yeah you have to modify it in the space station where you built it

Wait if that's in your way how did you get in?

[dusty valve]

i cant find my last deadeye cannon

[ancient nimbus]

100% can't rememebr after this endevour for sure

but I finiliazed it so it became my primary craft and something I did ended up automatically putting me inside of the cockpit

it was then when I left the seat I realized the issue

[hardy oracle]

Build a chair in the ceiling of the cockpit. Sit on the chair. Stand back up.

[cursive lark]

@hardy oracle has what I think is the only way for you to get it

[dusty valve]

is there a way i can remove habs from the tech slots? or do i need to use a save editor?

[ancient nimbus]

So I don't think I have the chair blueprint,..

Or least it's not showing in any of the build menus

I even tried to glich myself out with flora / my portable refiner and camera veiw changes c.c

[dusty valve]

...also i forgot to ask this, but are torpedo launchers supposed to boost the cyclotron ballistas? bc theyre not boosting my rockets

[hardy oracle]

Any of these 5 should work. There might be others but those are the only interactables I could think of that moves your character.

[ancient nimbus]

So I unfortunely have non of those c.c

[cobalt flame]

If you don't have the blueprints, change game difficulty to 'Creative'. You'll have everything then.

[ancient nimbus]

^ didn't know this

thank you

[rich hill]

I have an issue where I only added the phase beam, and the torpedo tubes in the build but all 4 weapon systems show up and I can't remove them, anyone have this issue?

[hardy oracle]

Perhaps consider modding the game? Haven't tried it myself but this one seems good for your situation: https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/3777

[ancient nimbus]

So idk if it was me docking at a space station or logging to change modes, but I relogged just now and I'm no longer trapped inside, Thank you everyone for the insite

I'm still so new I wouldn't know where to begin with mods tbh, but it would be something I might be interested in when I understand the game more

[hardy oracle]

Just so you know, the torpedo launchers are cyclotron ballista upgrades, not rocket upgrades. As for the photon cannon, we are sadly stuck with it for now. It's probably a mistake though, I suspect it will eventually be optional.

[cursive lark]

@ancient nimbus if you're still stuck I can gift you an orbital uplink, which would teleport you to the space station teleporter

Oh you got out

[ancient nimbus]

I am finally unstuck idk what did it

but I appricate the offer and help

[hardy oracle]

Good thinking! I always keep one of those on me and on my ship but I forgot that you can trade items 🙂

[ancient nimbus]

Tbh im almost woundering at this point if just joining someones session would have fixed my issue

[cursive lark]

You would still have been in your ship so probably not

[cursive lark]

Yeah I dupe them in case people need help

[dusty valve]

do figurines help with maneuverability?

[hardy oracle]

Polo does, and giving him adjacency boost is surprsingly effective too.

Polo has pretty weak stats on his own but his adjacency is way stronger than it has any right to be. I guess the little guy really likes being surrounded by friends

[dusty valve]

should i surround him with 4 aesthetic stuff?

looks like my trail is also helping

[hardy oracle]

Trails work. Some of the other figurines also buff adjacency for him as well. Doesn't really matter what you use though, Polo himself is the most important part if you're after manoeuvrability

[rich hill]

I appreciate that, I did not know that, I mean it says they support the rocket launcher but it didn't seem to change the numbers on it at all.

[cursive lark]

Surround him with trails and some of the bobbleheads

[dusty valve]

yeah i wish they buffed the rocket launcher

[hardy oracle]

Yeah, it's a little odd. I suppose the ballista is arguably somewhat torpedo-like in what it does but I think everyone initially assumes that the launchers are for rockets. I sure did. Maybe it's a mistake? Haven't heard any official word on it.

[dusty valve]

it also highlights "rocket tubes" or whatever when moused over

[hardy oracle]

I don't know which part of that mess is the actual mistake. Maybe bug report it?

!hg

[lament abyss]

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

[hardy oracle]

The "deadeye" cannon is a shotgun too, so you can't really trust their naming sense

[dusty valve]

oh i thought that was ironic

[hardy oracle]

I surely can't be the only one to assume it is some sort of sniper weapon

[dusty valve]

like how "dead recknoning" was notoriously unreliable or smth

[hardy oracle]

Maybe. Or it could have something to do with the expression of "Looking someone dead in the eye", which I guess you'd have to be pretty close to do.

Either way I think it's a poor choice for a name

[rich hill]

I havn't tried that wep yet but it reads like it shold be a sniper type wepon

[dusty valve]

yeah

[hardy oracle]

There's a mod that does make it into one, but I think it's really just the name that feels off. It looks visually suitable for a shotgun.

[rich hill]

I can't use mods since I swap between pc and xbox regularly

maybe someday xbox will get mods 🙂

[dusty valve]

uhh nada figurine doesnt play nice it seems

kind of a pain bc it means i need to get more quicksilver but kind of funny

neither does atlas?????

[gritty glade]

speaking of chairs, did they fix the bug where you just fall through the ship upon sitting in one of the chairs?

[dusty valve]

i havent had that in a really long time

[gritty glade]

i havent been on in a while

[buoyant orchid]

Someone might give some thoughts if they haven't already but what's there to say? It's your design, your ship. This isn't even a floor plan and even then you'll figure out what makes sense for the movements that feel comfortable on your ship. But for overall design? Have you seen the wacky designs people have made? It's whatever looks and feels good to you.

And being asymmetrical should be nothing special. 😄 IMO, it's symmetrical ships that don't make much sense -these are space ships. Why would things have to be equal on both sides? 2 for redundancy? Then why not 3?

If there's anything to say is that habs are plain yet with an ugly underside so if you have the parts and not getting too big or complex, it's often best to consider them mostly internal modules. All the cool ship designs of course comes in how you "detail" the exterior. You say decorations, I say armor. 😛

[karmic kraken]

I like corvettes, but I don't like that parts take technology slots. is there a way to work around this before I give up on corvettes?

[grizzled phoenix]

I don't think so. If you want more space, you gotta buy it and the space station

[karmic kraken]

you can only have three rows right? think I have the maximum

[past berry]

Adding parts add technology slots if none are available. If you remove the part, the technology slot remains. You can use this technique to increase your technology slots at no cost. (I did this during the expedition. I have not confirmed that it works on my main save.)

[grizzled phoenix]

I never thought of that I gotta try it

[karmic kraken]

this works on my main save. thank you! I didn't know I could have more than three rows of technology slots due to screen size, but there's a scroll bar now. thank you for the info

[dusty valve]

no, you can buuy more slots if you upgrade class

if you scroll up theres examples of tech inventories

[karmic kraken]

wow! I'm definitely a corvette patriot now

[hardy oracle]

60 slots is max

[balmy cloud]

Is there any wat to get the dead beam cannon now? The expedition ended, it’s a build by resources part, not by fragment?

[limpid karma]

if you didnt get it you cant get it

[balmy cloud]

There must be work arounds

[kind glacier]

"it's symmetrical ships that don't make much sense"

it depends. if it's a ship that also goes into the atmosphere of a planet and lands on it too, then it makes sense for it to be symmetrical as they need to be designed with space "flight" and in atmosphere flight. but for those ship who doesn't need to land or fly on plannets are stay only in space? yeah sure, they do not really need to be symmetrical

[buoyant orchid]

I want to call those aerospacecrafts 🤣

[compact pivot]

Refiner in corvette is still broke - all my gold+silver+indium are gone again 😕

[thorn hound]

Damn

[glass surge]

Never leave anything in ANY refiner and go do something else that includes the corvette one also do not warp with your corvette refiner going

[compact pivot]

yes, im curently just sitting at the station until refining done
but i never had issues with personal/freighter refiners

[abstract crow]

I've lost stacks of stuff inside freighter refiners after warping. Learned real quick to never trust refiners.

[abstract crow]

Chalk it up to tributes to the Atlas

[limber cedar]

Check it out

[remote sparrow]

Is there a way to rotate the landing Bays 90° degres? I would love to enter my corvette from the side

Anybody who can help with that?

[blissful gorge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrbetZzNSZ0 dont let the engagement bait title scare you. This is my favorite way to do 90 degree rotations, the window method he shows at the beginning

[hexed thicket]

I came back from work and only just noticed. XD
That was my cat. He likes my keyboard, especially when I'm asleep.
Sorry for any trouble. :P

[hexed thicket]

The transfer glitch is good, but very unwieldy just for something like this. The freehand approach is less precise but can be done entirely in-station, which is handy for experimentation.

[blissful gorge]

everyone loves a foggy station screenshot. i broke my brain trying to make 1/4 offsets in the base computer but i think it was worth it, cockpit looks so much better

you dont need to set up a settlement etc for the window one, just transfer then transfer back at any base computer. I think the window for 90 degrees is the opposite of unwieldy, less unwieldy than free placement with some kind of alignment rig. but just my opinion 🙂

i like snap points

[hexed thicket]

Yes, but you still need the whole cycle of get from station to base, then get from base to station, every time you need to do it. Freehanding doesn't take a rig, you just point at the bottom edge of the hab and hope for the best.
Can get some very precise offsets going on that way too.

[remote sparrow]

Thanks a lot KIKI ❤️

[trail pond]

Can I build a whole functional base on my corvette?

Without glitches?

[blissful gorge]

sort of

you can put refiner, all 10 cargo containers, nutrient processor

[trail pond]

Can I have the dome?

[blissful gorge]

with a glitch you can put teleporter and trade terminal

[trail pond]

Oh ok

[blissful gorge]

the cargo containers arent really useful if u have a freighter, and also they dont provide the remote access the way a freighter does

[abstract crow]

Ayy, my corvette design magically came back!

[blissful gorge]

but, they are there. and considering you can summon your ship to anywhere the lack of teleporter/trade terminal etc can be more of a fun constraint than a limitation

[trail pond]

Is there a larger one? Without more cargo?

I know that I cannot have an outright base on the freighter

[blissful gorge]

not sure what u mean, but what i meant is u can mount cargo containers 0-9 in ur freighter base and with the right module (i think its called matter beam) you can access them remotely by summoning your freighter to the same system

yes you can have a base on a freighter, its one of the key utilities it provides

[trail pond]

Hmmm, I should try that

[blissful gorge]

you access the freighter base from the bridge, a door opposite the pilot

[trail pond]

I can put down prefabs and all that?

[blissful gorge]

it has its own special freighter prefabs, they are rooms you connect. they are kind of annoying, personally i have an open freighter base. I can post a screenshot in another channel, its getting a bit off topic from corvette

[tame oxide]

Anyone know if the parts you put in the corvette workshop cache inventory are accessible in all space stations or just the one you put them in?

[grizzled prism]

It's every one

[tame oxide]

Thank you!

[grizzled prism]

Ofc

[tame oxide]

starship storage was getting kinda cramped with all of them xD

[grizzled prism]

I've been seeing some builds where people are resizing parts such as engines somehow. Does anyone know how to do that? I could really use that on one of my smaller builds, and I'm not seeing anyone talk about it anywhere

[blissful gorge]

im scared to try myself it but rescale+transfer glitch using base computer might do it. or straight up editing the save file

[grizzled prism]

That carries a risk of corrupting entire saves from what I remember, right?

[blissful gorge]

yes to both, easy thing to do if you dont take precautions

[hardy oracle]

Sure, but there's a risk your save will get corrupted from just playing games normally too. Having backups is just nice for peace of mind. And then you can experiment all you want without worry too.

[grizzled prism]

Yeah, definitely backing it up before I try. I've been playing on this save for a few years and would hate to destroy it like that

That being said, I'm assuming you resize the part after you've glitched it to be part of the base, then after getting the size you want you stick it back on the ship?

I'm not seeing anything for this particular application so I'm just guessing

Not even sure yet if I'd be able to remove core parts like an engine even using that glitch

[hardy oracle]

This part looks awesome, fits so well together!

[blissful gorge]

the cannon is clipped into the cockpit lol, not as pretty on the inside. but yeah getting that vent there was the hardest part of the whole build since i cant get habs to flip upside down

[iron palm]

I tried making a mini corvette, but it turns out. Smaller corvettes have terrible jump range.

[blissful gorge]

uhh probably a tech issue, also freighters exist

[iron palm]

Even my medium one I recently build and my other one ( small) have better jumprange. And my medium one has more then triple the thrusters.

[kind glacier]

sigh... i wish they would make that guns would stick to their respecting type. like... yes, i have 6 lasers that are shooting all at once and if i don't have, for example, any photon cannon or cyclotron ballista turrets, it makes sense to be fired thorugh the 6 laser turrets. BUT, if i also place 6 photon cannon or cyclotron ballista turrets, PLEASE, make the swap to those turrets if they are available

[grizzled prism]

Yeah, I feel the same way. Ruins the immersion of it a bit

[abstract crow]

Two much smaller designs I'm messing with. A corvette-sized ship, and a dropship-styled ship (lost my other one). Both are coming along nicely I think.

[terse kestrel]

"we have a squid ship at home"

Yeah....didn't come out like I hoped 😭

[violet swallow]

Outside of the tentacles, i love the idea

[dusty valve]

damn, if these are "much smaller designs" I'd love to see your big design!

also is there a way to "save" or "back up" Corvette designs?

[abstract crow]

Saving the JSON files.

And here's an example of my really big designs.

[terse kestrel]

When you read the patch notes wrong and you think they said freighter building and not Corvette building.....

That's sick.

[abstract crow]

I gotta make do until they (maybe) eventually allow us to custom build freighters. Maybe one day...

It's incredibly impractical, but big is beautiful imo. That and I'm breathing life into designs I have in my head for a book I'm working on.

[dusty valve]

I'm inclined to agree

[dusty valve]

my question is how do you prevent crashes

[abstract crow]

But I built enough massive ships. That's why I trying to go smaller again.

Well, I am on PC. But honestly, there's only a little lag when I first select the ship. Other than that, nothing

[dusty valve]

hmm

maybe they patched it so it's less prone to lag

do you have a mod that allows you to build outside the constraints of the space station?

like if I wanna make my ship longer

[terse kestrel]

Really the size of the ship or parts being built in weird directions isn't what significantly lags out and crashes people's game.

It's when you start using base parts, freighter parts and going triple the build limit. That's when you are basically creating a flying DDOS attack

[dusty valve]

I've got like 160 Corvette parts but if I try to make it wider my game crashes

maybe it's also bc i have A LOT of internal decorations

[dusty valve]

or actually what are some mod suggestions

[abstract crow]

Yeah, I have a mod that increases the build zone and camera zone as well. But even without, you can still kinda glitch out of the build zone. Just not to this extent.

[dusty valve]

are you allowed to share links here

also do you decorate your interiors?

[hallow scroll]

does anyone know why when i was building my corvette some things such as ambassador habitation module disappeared

[abstract crow]

I haven't decorated any of my habs yet, mostly because I'm not quite done tweaking designs.

[dusty valve]

fair enough

[abstract crow]

Plus, there's a LOT of habs in that monstrosity.

[tame oxide]

New to the game. Would yall recommend i keep my corvette parts for later or sell them for early game money. Not sure at what point corvette building is a possibility.

[abstract crow]

You can build corvettes at any point. Parts are free if you scavenge then from certain planets. Only thing that might cost money then is upgrading.

[tame oxide]

i have a lot of parts and found the builder but is it worth going straight for a corvette or selling some of the parts and getting a decent starship

[compact pivot]

I would build 1 smaller Corvette (i don't like large ships), like 1-2 hubs, and basics to go with that, and just sell parts you don't need. I still fly mostly my sentinel ship and use Corvette just occasionally when I need cooking and refiner and acces to storage.

[tame patio]

I had a smaller corvette I used to help gather lots of parts before I built my main one.

[tame oxide]

Think i might do that. Thank you!

[tight agate]

tf am i looking at lol

Just note to not attempt to fly underground with a corvette, I learned that luckily didn't get destroyed by activating the landing sequence and raised out the ground.

The space anomaly 🤣

[grizzled phoenix]

That is a greenhouse of all time right there

[next coral]

Seeing so many no-mod corvette builds that are absolutely stunning just makes me feel inadequate lmfao

Wish I could build something that doesn’t look like a random pile of space junk

Like idk how people are getting sick looking parts without modding their game, I can’t find anything that looks like it in the advanced shop

[tame patio]

It involves knowing what works, some parts can be put through other parts. It's also knowing other ways to get the grid offset which allows for more creativity and there are stuff I don't know how to use.

[abstract crow]

Glitches help a lot

[blissful gorge]

any advice on large radius cylindrical shapes? speedbird fairing can do some cursed ones but everything ends up so boxy

[tight turret]

Is there like a “corvette building 101” guide someone can send me? Trying to align exterior panels is killing me

[hardy oracle]

Check the pins. Lots of guides there

[tight turret]

Ay

If i may ask, not all parts have “free placement” available correct?

Frankly ive not seen that option

[hardy oracle]

All decor parts should have it, but none of the corvette parts

Corvette parts only ever snap. Though you can free place things that they can snap to

[tight turret]

By decor do you mean interior stuff, and not like exterior panels like cowlings?

[hardy oracle]

There are two build modes for corvettes. The build mode at the station terminal is snap only. The build mode you go into when pressing Z near your corvette should have free placement

[tight turret]

I see thanks

[hardy oracle]

But as I said, while it IS snap only, you can free place things that provide snap points. So you can essentially free place everything. It just takes extra steps and is really bothersome

[trail hornet]

i wish you could get cowlings on their side 😔

but oh well

ye I love this ship, I took inspiration from this one

[trail hornet]

looks sweet

[blissful gorge]

... this is so disappointing. ill have to find a different piece for this engine cowling

[novel dragon]

Disappointing how?

It still looks good

[distant lance]

corvettes look cool i just wasn't able to get one and now i wont be able to lol 😞

[trail hornet]

wdym?

you can build corvettes whenever as long as you have the parts

[distant lance]

it cost to much to buy the plans

[trail hornet]

plans?

just grind money and parts lol

or build one in creative and transfer it

[blissful gorge]

i was so concerned with the rounded edges i didnt think about how the flat faces would look. I kind if wish there were bigger engines for corvettes. never thought i would say that when i saw how big the titan is

it does look really really good to me from the front tho, so maybe i wont stress it. the ass is the first part of a corvette anyone sees in the anomaly, best to make a good impression

i guess paint helps

[distant lance]

yeah like the parts are 1 mil or more i barley have 500k right now i had more but i spent it on upgrading my suit and multi tool and my ship i still need to go to a red star at some point to get the candimidum i need

[trail hornet]

once you get later in the game, you'll get to make a corvette. corvettes are super cool and fun to build for me. good luck man

plus you can salvage corvette pieces

[distant lance]
