[subtle gulch]

build cargo containers in your corvette and go scrappin

[fervent mist]

yes thats how I found those things at the top of the corvette
i was lucky to find a pradise planet with salvage scrap with no sentinal
I still have to look around that plaent

[subtle gulch]

you get so many parts

[fervent mist]

yes yes I will

[subtle gulch]

put your ship on a nice glide and autopilot

scan for the yellow icons

salvage scrap

done

so many to actually use or trade for the parts you want

[fervent mist]

yes man
i was always dreaming to this (its been 2 days since I dreamt of corvette)

now easy farming for me

[subtle gulch]

plus you can sell the excess

[fervent mist]

yes i do that

i found a beautiful planet with no sentinals

[balmy cedar]

Nice

[fervent mist]

and with salvage scraps

[balmy cedar]

My personal paradise planet has sentinels sadly

[fervent mist]

that is sad

where I live rn is pradise moon

thinking to shift but I find moon more peacful than that planet

[balmy cedar]

But. I may have found a new verdant world to make a corvette shipyard

[fervent mist]

that is great

[balmy cedar]

The ocean glows I found

And it makes my lobster ship all the cooler

[subtle gulch]

i live that nomadic life on my ships

[balmy cedar]

I have few bases beyond my ships

[subtle gulch]

and my freighter

[balmy cedar]

I'm a space hobo

[subtle gulch]

i keep a base on my first ever planet

tox shithole but it holds a place in my heart

[fervent mist]

Wow

[balmy cedar]

It was by accident I found this glowing sea

I was taking daytime pics of the ship and it turned night without me realizing.

Lo and behold

Glowing ocean

[terse kestrel]

Drink the water and see if you get super powers

[dusty dagger]

Has anyone built 3I atlas yet???

[fair pilot]

... built what?

I NEED an ability to change colours of the lighted parts on the corvette

look at this glamour!

[subtle gulch]

i hope they add more color options in the future

same with interior colors

especially for the ambassador parts

[umbral sigil]

Is youtube the best places to find Corvette builds? Im not the creatively inclined lol

[fair pilot]

Youtube is good to learn the techniques

[golden tundra]

Keep them, you can trade them with other parts that you don't have.
Some parts are worthless but some have premium parts, the cache size is 160 slots, some parts IIRC can go up to 500/500 per slot (double check this tho)
Unless you need units ASAP, selling the parts while building corvette has no benefits

[golden tundra]

#nms-showcase-corvettes should provide you with an ASAP solution,.
My creativity for this sucks, looking at some give you ideas to do something similar but with a personal touch to it

[dusty dagger]

Try the nms service bot if you don’t want to build a corvette yourself

[dusty dagger]

The “alien spacecraft” that’s like headed towards earth or something

[terse kestrel]

There's no alien spacecraft. There's so many eyes on that rock if it was some doomsday spacecraft you would definitely hear more proof about it than just on Facebook and Reddit 😂

[river copper]

My first corvette

I don’t like it

[dusty dagger]

I’m going to assume you didn’t see the quote marks 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[river copper]

I love this but I agree about the color thing

[umbral sigil]

What is that?

[dusty dagger]

It’s basically a delivery bot, you select what you want and it gives it to you. Uses are limited to 3 per month to keep it balanced so choose wisely

[terse kestrel]

Free use is five times per month. And if you really need more than that you can subscribe to their patreon. Which I'm surprised HG allows. But it's their intellectual property so obviously they don't care

I know if people tried to produce mods or bots for say a Bethesda game and tried to monetize it they would get shut down pretty quick 😂

[umbral sigil]

Thats wild

[dusty dagger]

It’s essentially a mod so it’s not hg’s intellectual property

[umbral sigil]

Im on PS. So if its a mod im not going to be able to use it

[terse kestrel]

It's usable on consoles. So it's not a mod

[dusty dagger]

Nope it’s a web based thing

Like eBay for no mans sky

[terse kestrel]

It's a third party script and in game bot that delivers items generated off something similar to a save editor

That's why FOMo over expeditions is silly. None of these rare items are actually rare. People can save edit or get them delivered whenever they want

[river copper]

I’m confused

[dusty dagger]

Not everyone wants to do it like that and not a lot of people can use save editors

This is no longer a corvettes discussion so let’s leave it 🙂🙂

[trail hornet]

tips on making modren vettes?

[terse kestrel]

I use save editor all the time. And I have nothing against that.

I'm also not the one who brought up that website in the first place 😂

[fair pilot]

what is "moden"?

[terse kestrel]

I'm not a creative person. I just plagiarized the last 50 years of sci-fi, TV and games

[trail hornet]

like sleek, clean, fancy and white ish

[glass surge]

we building Modena Vette's?

[trail hornet]

OH modern*

mb i'm tired yall 😭

[fair pilot]

I've caught 2 style details from other 'vettes and built my one around it, inventing few style details on the way

[terse kestrel]

https://gamemodels3d.com/en/games/eveonline/

That website is from the game eve. There are countless 3D models of ships on that site that you can get ideas from. And a lot of them are able to be replicated in game fairly easily

Rather than just seeing static or still images. You can actually rotate those images around and get a good idea of how to design your ship

[fair pilot]

OOOOOOOH HOLY DRAKE

[trail hornet]

bet

[umbral sigil]

This website is crazy

[terse kestrel]

😂

[terse kestrel]

Make sure you follow the instructions of delivery precisely. And as soon as you ask for something to be delivered don't do anything until it gets to you. Bouncing around menus may result in you canceling the delivery and losing a chance

But yeah definitely check over their list of corvettes. And avoid any of the extremely large ones unless you want system issues

[umbral sigil]

Noted. I can get past expedition stuff delivered too? Holy hell

[dusty dagger]

Literally everything can be aquired except for unreleased stuff

[umbral sigil]

Yea im avoiding those cause screw lag lol

[terse kestrel]

They also screw everybody in the anomaly

I saw that thing last night. Looking out over the anomaly lobby you could see player after player disappearing as they crashed. I crashed shortly after taking this picture

[umbral sigil]

F that my guy. Of course all the cool ones have a plethora of parts but I dont need that lol

[terse kestrel]

The messed up thing is you know they're not using that as their normal everyday flyer. It's way too difficult and buggy to use crafts that big all the time. So they're only doing it for the aura and don't care how they impact everybody else's game

[umbral sigil]

Are they using an editor to make it have over 100 parts?

[dusty dagger]

A separate mod is used

[terse kestrel]

There's mods that will strip away the limits. You can build a Corvette with a thousand parts if your system can handle it

[dusty dagger]

Puts the part cap way up above 100

[terse kestrel]

There was a way that you could use Windows on vanilla Corvette building to confuse the system and get yourself extra parts allotted. But it doesn't work anymore.

The developers obviously spent a lot of time testing the hundred part limit and determined it was the right thing to do. They don't like to stifle our creativity and if they could have given us a higher limit they would have.

[fair pilot]

@gentle turtle hatch = ramp, accessway

[trail hornet]

what do yall think so far?

i think it has potential

[fair pilot]

It has indeed

One stupid tip for ya - it doesn't really matters what we're thinking here. It only matters if you like/don't your ship

[trail hornet]

i like it sooo

[gentle turtle]

Omg....I didn't look at the pics properly, I can see the hatch/teleport buttons now.

That's cool, thanks!

[fair pilot]

That was not me tho, that was some other guy who built it xD

but it is in the pinned video iirc

or not

[umbral sigil]

Yea I figured. But they also aren't phased at the fact ppl are modding to go past the 100 limit

[trail hornet]

changed it a tiny bit

can't seem to get the bottom right corner piece to stay connected tho..

[fair pilot]

That's what I'm flying

[river copper]

Ok I’m getting annoyed with building a corvette

[tepid valve]

How does one make disconnected corvette parts?

[fair pilot]

There is a trick

Or even 2

Some parts (like angled slopes) has weird hitbox. They can be connected hitbox-wise, but not connected visually.

[tepid valve]

I’m talking for longer distance

[terse kestrel]

They are. They're addressing it update by update.

For instance there was a way you could use your Corvette in a settlement base and attach parts to it that would allow you to build vertically. In vanilla. No mods

The last round of updates took that away. Because it was very unstable and it was crashing out people's game badly.

[tepid valve]

I wanna make an atlas ship separated in two pieces

[fair pilot]

Other option - build the parts connected with something you'll remove later, then assign some visual thing between them through interior building, then remove the part that connected them not touching the visual thing (rope?)

[umbral sigil]

Well that makes sense. If its crashing ppl they should fix it somehow

[terse kestrel]

Street lamps are another good one. They are long, you can resize them to be even longer and are easy to rotate to mesh in between parts

[tepid valve]

Hmm, lemme try that

[terse kestrel]

If you zoom in on that pod racer you'll notice that the wires connecting the craft to the pods are just lamps 😂

"it just works"

[ember plaza]

awesome

[heavy sage]

Heh, did they name it "Lag Spike"?

[terse kestrel]

@gentle turtle

Channel I sent you the YouTube link in is pretty much just for showing off Corvette build. If you need build advice or tips and tricks ask here.

[terse kestrel]

HMS DDOS 😭

[trail hornet]

i'm cooking chat

any ideas for a top? i might just slap down a radar done and call it enough

[fair pilot]

why not lol

[trail hornet]

ykw it works

[fair pilot]

[trail hornet]

i'ma leave it with this bec i think this looks cool

i forgot engines

[fair pilot]

[fervent mist]

I made another Ship in No Man’s Sky, the initial inspiration was American Jets again but it turned into this. It reminds me of an X-Wing Variant but my wife says it’s a dragon. I need help coming up with a name for this ship and feedback, do I delete or do I remodel or do I name and leave alone? Any help is appreciated.

[trail hornet]

god how i wish we had a mirror mode in the vette builder 😔

[gentle turtle]

I noticed they fixed the thing where you could go to the next, empty corvette docking station to edit parts off your corvette 😦

[fair pilot]

Trench run

[trail hornet]

damn those trenches are huge

added a fun lil fin thing with thrusters

[fair pilot]

Freighters are huge indeed. And corvettes aren't that big as we think sometimes (if built within vanilla limits)

[trail hornet]

well damn.

[shadow crown]

I like it. Looks like a baby version (and also a symmetrical version) of something I had wanted to do

[gentle turtle]

Oh wow that video was all I needed!

Legend!

[trail hornet]

niice

[terse kestrel]

Also got links to offsetting Habs, rotating and vertical building if you need those

[fair pilot]

vertical rotation requires unholy relations with windows free placement too?

[terse kestrel]

Yeah. Easiest to do falling out of your ramp in space.

But it's something I did once and don't feel like bothering with again on another build

[jaunty schooner]

Hello, someone knows how I can put floating parts in my corvette like this?

[fair pilot]

Read this message and next... 10 or 15
#nms-corvette-discussion message

[jaunty schooner]

So only some parts works

Ok

[fair pilot]

But there is a workaround

Make the parts connected with some placeholder, and then place something insignificant in between.

If connection by pole/rope is ok for you.

[jaunty schooner]

I’m going to try that

Thanks

[fair pilot]

Then remove placeholder*

[trail hornet]

how do you use the freighter colors on a vette? i remember seeing something about saloon signs but i forgot 😭

[terse kestrel]

https://youtu.be/OChJFfIEzI0?si=n2dRF45rxysvuzq1

Full guide by Beeblebum and a quick how to I did showing how to texture freighter colors on corvettes

One of the saloon signs works great

With the base color textures on corvettes

Concrete=gloss
Rust=inverted
Stone=weathered
Wood=Metallic

[trail hornet]

what are those 😭

like qs stuff?

i think i'm finally done with this beauty, name suggestions welcome!!

Yeah. Like the black hole sign but that doesn't have freighter parts

[trail hornet]

ah alright

[terse kestrel]

You can also you the white flat panel or locker from freighters

[trail hornet]

went with the SF-StarSeeker

oh sick

[weak jacinth]

How do you sell a Corvette?

[dark juniper]

Exchange it for another lifeform's starship

[weak jacinth]

Ty!

[ember plaza]

hey yall

can i install lights

on my ship

[cursive lark]

Corvettes yes

You need the blueprint from the anomaly

Then you can just place em on the ship

[ember plaza]

god damnit

so many fucking things need that god damn ship

where is da place u buy them

idk if my ship even has room

[gentle turtle]

Blueprint is for the building part that are lights, in this case . Let's you build various lights in your base or corvette.

What you use the salvaged data for, up the back of the anomaly where all the action is

[trail hornet]

very back of the aurora

not aurora, silly me
anomaly*

too much subnautica lately

[coarse blade]

We need giant landing pads for these giant corvettes...

[unreal tendon]

With a bit of luck we'll get them with next update.
Right now is annoying to warp to base just to watch landing legs slowly clip upwards around you.

[unreal tendon]

You can also scrap it, but I beliwv have to that eats hull parts.

[elder iron]

You cannot scrap corvette

[unreal tendon]

Ah

[glass surge]

My main corvette is as big as my base and a Landing pad would be hilariously big.

They should just make the corvette teleporter a base buildable object that you can position anywhere on your base and when you teleport or land back to base it the corvette floats above it and you can still teleport back to it

[limpid quiver]

or make the landing pad like the ones on freighters

[elder iron]

1. Those are massive
2. Corvette hover point would definitely be way better and easier to integrate into base design

[limpid quiver]

tru

[patent ice]

I’m trying to build an atlas corvette but whenever I put the parts away (right click then left) they disappear and I can’t access them again??? It’s getting annoying to the point we’re I’m done reloading and about to say screw it on those parts

[glass surge]

It doesn't Disappear it goes into you Exosuit inventory.

[blazing bane]

There’s a mod for that

[unreal tendon]

Yes, that would be the best choice.
Landing/Hover spot marker.

[unreal tendon]

From my experience, they can end in exosuit, starship, freighter (if you have matter beam) and lastly in corvette parts cache.

[cursive lark]

sir that's subnautica 🤣

[raven rover]

[lean spire]

So, the photon really doesn’t uninstall even without one needed I have two other weapon systems?

[fair pilot]

Yes,

[random zinc]

do you think that's a bug or deliberate?

[fair pilot]

PC is the default weapon hardcoded into the ships

[burnt cosmos]

is there any way to glitch the windows on the back of the ship?

[terse kestrel]

For decoration or building at various angles?

[burnt cosmos]

mhhhh idk honestly lol, both?

[terse kestrel]

Because you can free place Windows anywhere at any angle and then attach a hab to it. That gives you a new direction to build in than just from to back.

But as far as attaching windows to a hab end facing the rear I didn't know you couldn't do that.

I thought you could place windows on all sides of habs?

[burnt cosmos]

oh that's good to know, thanks! i am using a different glitching technique i think but it shouuld be the same result

[burnt cosmos]

at first i thought was cause i ended up way too far back and reached the working area limit

but then i realized i could attach everything but the windows

so i guess the windows are the problem

[tranquil hedge]

hello miku, is the world yours? somebody is contesting in one of the recent anime trailer!

[terse kestrel]

🤔

Pretty sure it's not supposed to do that

[tame patio]

I optimised my tech layout for my corvette and it is a big difference. I found that photon cannon now is best in a +shape in modules and the weapons next to them.

My top speed not pulse drive now reaches with power on engines is 3,889 u/s which is at least 200 u/s faster than before.

[sage wolf]

Fun until it randomly decides to rearrange itself lol

My corvettes constantly rearrange their tech even if i don't edit them

[tame patio]

It hasn't happened yet. Hopefully not soon.

[burnt cosmos]

how do you get all those slots? at S tier or doing something else?

[sage wolf]

It's made them borderline useless to me. I grinded for hours to get a 4 close sc layout only to have it dump random shit into the slots after warping

[tame patio]

Every level gives you access to more slots.

[burnt cosmos]

ah noice thanks!

[tame patio]

If I remember C gets 3 rows, B gets 4, A gets 5 and S gets 6

[sage wolf]

The following things almost always rearrange the tech for me that aren't even related to editing:
-Warping to another system in the corvette
-Switching to another ship, even if it's another corvette
-Sometimes when loading a save

Sometimes it only moves a little, like the sc slots will still be fine, other times it pulls a bejeweled and just fucks up the entire board

[tame patio]

I've warped to a few systems and not had my tech rearranged. Same with swapping ships.

[sage wolf]

Maybe it's influenced by what parts you choose, idk

But I'm back to just using an interceptor because I got annoyed with having to constantly fix my tech

I still like to make corvettes just for fun because there's a lot of creative things you can do, but I don't end up actually using them

Just use them for pictures

[cobalt sable]

Does corvette parts in a salvage containers is random? I think there are some regularities: one world give me ambasador cocpits - other don't even single one. Is there something to read about salvage container grind?

[tame patio]

It's random. If you want the best planets type to farm them it's airless planets since they got no broken tech nodes and no oceans.

[wraith quiver]

Interested in seeing what you all have done to build in front of your cockpits while being able to maintain first person visibility.

[cursive lark]

Completely random

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

[abstract crow]

Don't really put anything in front of my cockpits. They usually go up a level and stay back a little from the front.

[terse kestrel]

The best places to farm are small moons with an abundant resource metric in the analysis visor.

The system generates a ton of loot. But because of the small moon size it slams it all together closely.

Often times meshing resources points together. Two damaged machinery next to two knowledge stones Or a buried salvage module meshed into a buried cache. Multiple agriculture plants side by side.

You know you found a really good one when you see 7-8+ salvaged scrap icons in your scanner within 1000u. Put a base on it and you never need to hunt for that loot again.

But you can't see a planet/moon resource metric from space. You actually have to land and see it in the infographic of the analysis visor on the left.

[balmy cedar]

Very nice

[errant depot]

How big are the largest corvettes compared to frigates?

[kind glacier]

guys. what technology modules do I need to equip on the corvette before i add all other modules?

trying to set it up before i add all the extra stuff

to make sure i have enough space

[terse kestrel]

If you had the right mods and your system can handle the build you can get a Corvette damn close to the same size if not bigger than a frigate

[raven rover]

Not even close

[terse kestrel]

1000+ parts to begin with 😆

[raven rover]

Vanilla wise its not close at all

Even with them mods

You still gotta TRY

[limpid quiver]

corvettes are the third largest in vanilla

[terse kestrel]

I believe in you

[limpid quiver]

freighter>frigate>corvette>rest

[abstract crow]

My largest is probably like 1/20th the size of my pirate freighter and it's about three build spots long.

[raven rover]

2+ build spot corvette next to a frigate

[terse kestrel]

See it's not that hard. Just use a 3rd build spot 🙄

[raven rover]

😭

[limpid quiver]

how long can you even go in vanilla

when making corvettes

[raven rover]

that long

next to a living frigate

it seems bigger bcs im above it by a bit

by vanilla i mean vanilla max size, not the complexity

1 build spot long

[kind glacier]

guys. what other modules are considered to be a tech modules are considered a must have?
conflict scanner, economy scanner, teleport receiver, cargo scan deflector, water landing, emergency warp and what else? am I missing something?

[limpid quiver]

launch thruster autocharger

if not a corvette

since corvette can be parked mid air

[kind glacier]

aye. i will get that from the reactor. i'm just trying to see what technology to instal first before i add the corvette parts

the phase beams are still op broken right?

[errant depot]

Nevermind I’m dumb I thought they got weaker but I forgot I was using a different ship when they were doing more damage so I’d have to test later

[swift mist]

water landing seems useless

[trail hornet]

dayum

[swift mist]

so does emergency warp once you've progressed far enough

[trail hornet]

or use that one reactor

[limpid quiver]

ye

[trail hornet]

we need, and by need i mean NEED corvette landing pads

they already exist so just let us build them

[swift mist]

they exist?

news to me

[trail hornet]

freighters and atlas stations

kinda

[swift mist]

oh i throught you meant like an unused part

[trail hornet]

ohh nah

they could just use the same system and make it buildable with a platform

or like a modular piece we can connect to another for bigger corvettes

dude that'd be sick

[limpid quiver]

and derelicts

[trail hornet]

forgot those existed

and ig frigates?

and also maybe stations but thats kinda different i feel

[swift mist]

those are the same thing as the ones on freighters

[limpid quiver]

stations are the only ones you can build them at

[trail hornet]

yeah stations are different so

[trail hornet]

nah those ones you hover at but the station one you actually land at

[swift mist]

no what i meant was the ones on freighters, derelicts and frigates are the exact same

[trail hornet]

ohhhh right

[swift mist]

is there any reason to have corvette landing pads other than immersion?

[trail hornet]

quality of life

[swift mist]

hovering is more convenient though

no launch animation

just jump in the pilot seat and go

im not against landing pads to be clear

[trail hornet]

yeah but it'd be nice to have a set place you can put your corvette down at and have it stay there

[swift mist]

thats fair

[trail hornet]

i'd love to have a place i can have my vette every time instead of it spawning inside my base or having to summon it to a random field next to it

[limpid quiver]

so they don't spawn at you whenever you tp to your base

[swift mist]

it always hovers for me when i tp

[trail hornet]

and landing at a base would be easier

[swift mist]

i fortunately never had that problem

[trail hornet]

it hovers for me too but its always inside my base

[swift mist]

oh i always have my portal separate and far from any buildings

thats probably why

[trail hornet]

oh makes sense

[limpid quiver]

ye

[terse kestrel]

Build your portal on the edge of where your other base buildings are and point it away from all the other buildings.

Fixes it mostly

It's way more likely to recognize plenty of open space in front of your portal and less likely to just clip it on you

If you have a bunch of buildings in front of where your portal is pointing more than likely it's going to clip somewhere. If not right on top of you.

[fair pilot]

Actually I've re-checked. Ship seems to spawn over the portal, but on the line from the base computer to the portal

So also make sure that nothing is located between the base computer and the portal, measuring by corvette lenght from the portal

[terse kestrel]

And my base computer is away from my base. The portal is pointed in its general direction.

I didn't realize that's what was affecting it. I thought it was just which way the portal was pointing

Good to know

[fair pilot]

I'm not saying that it is 100% true, but that's my observation

[visual rivet]

so are these like... do nothing?

i just got all the crops researched and i cant plant in them

[fair pilot]

they allow you to grow plants from "portal" secrion of the building menu

[visual rivet]

lemme try that thank u

i must cultivate my illegal nipnip trade >:)

[fair pilot]

nipnip should work

[unreal tendon]

Promise is a promise.

[fair pilot]

hehe nice

Suggestons - long aerofoils instead of short

Upside-down reversed slope/aerofoil behind the second hopper

[unreal tendon]

Thanks

[fair pilot]

not mandatory, just what I'd do.

[unreal tendon]

Hey, I'm always after inspiration, this one was made after I saw one in showcase.

[runic bluff]

How long does it take you to get to the cockpit

[kind glacier]

why? it helps with big ships that have a hard time finfing a place to land on

[ember plaza]

yesss

tu

oops

[swift mist]

because you can just hover on a corvette

you dont need to land at all is my point

[kind glacier]

immersion. sometimes i like to just land

also, you should be able to summon it more easily if you are next to the water right?

in general i make long corvets and i have a hard time finding a place to summon it on land

[terse kestrel]

A lot of times when you try to hover and fish off your Corvette you can't reach the water.

But with aqua Jets you can stand right on the access ramp and reach the water easy

[swift mist]

i can honestly say that I've never had that fishing problem

i can see it happening if its parked too high off the surface?

[livid veldt]

Does this yellow light come on - ever?

[terse kestrel]

No

[livid veldt]

Seems like it would

[terse kestrel]

If you want to light up your access ramp remove it in Corvette builder and just stick one somewhere else so you can back out of the builder. Then attach lights to the sides of the hab end that you are going to attach the access ramp to.

When you replace the ramp over the lights the light shines throughout it and illuminates it well

You can also do the same thing to your cockpit. Since there's nowhere to really hide lights inside your cockpit walls. Lights up your cockpit really well

[fair pilot]

Corvettes on 90% built from compromises

The cockpit too low? Looks bad. Too high? Hard to get to it. On the front? Hard to get to it again. On the back? The whole ass 'vette is in front of you.

[livid veldt]

I generally use the Ambassador cockpit - - it's pretty bright as is. I love the fpv view, despite the 3rdpv looking kind of like a sad bird.

[tall drift]

for a game where every single asset is emissive, you’d think that the lamps would produce light 😂

[random zinc]

any tips for getting flat walls inside the corvette that you can put decals on without weird shaping issues?

[terse kestrel]

Really I will put something into the wall hidden that allows the poster to be placed on it and stick out properly.

Flat freighter panels shrink down usually work well. Giving a nice flat base just behind the wall to place posters and decals on.

You can also just place a shrunk down poster in the wall and then a bigger version of it over it. Lifting it out of the wall a little bit.

[random zinc]

this is why we need the proverbial virtual canopy

[terse kestrel]

Posters are really good for this. Because as you increase their size the space that you put something on it increases. So you can increase the size of your poster depending on how far you need what you put on top of it to stick out of the wall

[random zinc]

does that need to be hacked in?

[terse kestrel]

Nope. Hear the video where I'm showing how to do it on the floor. Without the small poster underneath the entire one meshes badly. But with that small one down first it lifts the second one up just enough to not mesh

[random zinc]

ok, so backing the decal with a poster?

[terse kestrel]

In that video I'm duplicating the poster after I make it small. And then making that duplicate larger.

However high you need what's on top to be you would need to make the bottom one a bit bigger. The top one will float a little bit higher off of it the bigger you increase it

[random zinc]

In order to get the weapon rack into a hab I had to put the storage unit on the wall, a flat panel on the storage unit, and the weapon rack on the flat panel

[terse kestrel]

Yeah pretty much the same thing for posters.

Decals are different. You need a hardpoint object for decals to effectively latch onto. And just float them

[raven rover]

Uh like 2 secs

Its on the very back

Internal cockpit

[fair pilot]

I have very cursed moment

I deleted some parts from corvette to assign other parts

And now parts count is different from what it was when I applied equal amount of other parts

WHAT I DELETED

Ah that was extra part in a wrong place

[fair pilot]

One is not even loading lol

anyone else have issues with the trees on their ships dying and staying that way?

[terse kestrel]

It's not loading in your leaves

[terse kestrel]

If you go to that tree in the build menu and pull it out like you are going to build one it will load the leaves

Grass on Corvette does this too

[radiant lagoon]

Aye, made my first Corvette last night, any tips to make it more spiffy?

And also, please tell me there’s a better way to write on the hull than clipping numbers lol

[terse kestrel]

Nice number clipping bro

And no there's not

[radiant lagoon]

Damnit lol.

Looks like I need to keep the names short then lol.

And, I might reposition that later on as it’s kinda hard to read lol. It’s supposed to say “Exodus”

[random zinc]

Someone here said they got stickers showing the letters that are printed on posters/view screens and that they think they got them from a mod. If this is true, perhaps that's an option.

[fair pilot]

fkn hardest 'vette shot I ever had

[random zinc]

what were you fighting to get that shot?

[fair pilot]

my awful understanding of how to make a good screenshot

[exotic spruce]

I didn't like making this as much as I thought I would from the game trailer

[dawn fulcrum]

how do i hide reactors on my corvette

nice i figuired it ouit

[balmy cedar]

When you're on Xbox and don't have the redux expedition...

I spent longer making this than I'd care to admit

I've dubbed it the Sr1 Harmony

[dusk reef]

im on pc and i still gotta wait bc i play it through the xbox app ;-;

awesome corvette though i love the normandy

[balmy cedar]

Thx

Same

[near path]

One of the better ones i've seen

[balmy cedar]

It's my favorite sci fi ship

[dusk reef]

i just remembered i got gamepass back and i can play mass effect

hell yeah

[balmy cedar]

I have the ultimate edition and the old xbox 360 ones

My old man left me his 518 game collection when he passed

He never bought games when they weren't on sale

Anyways

[near path]

Best time to buy them 😄

[balmy cedar]

Fr

This normandy has a small interior

It's got a loading bay

And then a smol upstairs

Here's the inside looking at the helm

(The cockpit)

[near path]

Putting the holo in the middle is a nice touch

[balmy cedar]

Thx

I wanted to recreate that map room from the ME games

[trail hornet]

whats that blue circle?

[balmy cedar]

Decor item

[trail hornet]

which is

[balmy cedar]

Pocket reality Generator

[trail hornet]

awesome, thanks a bunch

[balmy cedar]

Had to go actually click on it. I have a poor memory lol

[trail hornet]

lmao thats so real

no worries at all lol

[balmy cedar]

Thx

Here's the full thing

It doesn't like parts on top of it

Like desks

[trail hornet]

oof

thats sick tho

[balmy cedar]

Looks sick tho

[trail hornet]

i love that interior

[trail hornet]

lmao same brainwaves

[balmy cedar]

My only issue with the amby habs are how bright they are

Here's my exact thoughts summed up

[glass surge]

I don't have a problem on Steam PC if you do on xbox report it as a bug

[balmy cedar]

It's more of a visual thing

Not so much a bug as my own eyes

Unless Sean Murray has a way to bugfix my pupils lol

[near path]

Amby Habs with HDR enabled is like a flashbang 😄

[glass surge]

Ahh HDR how i love not using it

[hardy oracle]

It's a little surprising, but you can make ambassador habs feel significantly darker by adding colored light sources inside them

[balmy cedar]

Amby habs rock as far as looks go tho

[near path]

It's nice for some games. Horizon Zero Dawn looks amazing with it on.

[balmy cedar]

They remind me of the Nostromo

[near path]

NMS is a let down with it though

[glass surge]

I would but my current monitor is not that great for it

[near path]

I sorta made an impulse buy with mine to match my GPU

[fervent mist]

guys
idk why but before building corvette I use to explore all kind of dangerous planet
after building corvette I dont feel like landing at all

is it me or it happens?

[fair pilot]

There are options, but the most efficient - glitch them into a cramped space.

[dawn fulcrum]

i found a way, but i cant figuire out plating at all

[fair pilot]

using offset & rotation.

[dawn fulcrum]

and how do i cover the hulls outside

💔

can i place a door here

[fair pilot]

No, but there is a way.

[balmy cedar]

Landing is overrated when you can hover

[fair pilot]

connect a hub to this one where you want to have a door, remove this hub, place the titan ramp here (entrance), remove the hub you places second, place this hub back

[balmy cedar]

Large metal panels

Idr what they're called

One sec

[near path]

I wish you could free place parts. Anyway, mines finished.

[balmy cedar]

Flat Panel

That's what should get you sorted

[dawn fulcrum]

💀

[dawn fulcrum]

i dont understand

[balmy cedar]

Brutal

Sorry broski I thought that might work...

[dawn fulcrum]

maybe ill just

throw in the bag

and do that cool pirate ship tutorial

🥀

[fervent mist]

oh yeah
but going to another planet with hover still kinda scares me

now

[balmy cedar]

Why's that?

Worried your ship might get hijacked?

No need to worry.

[fervent mist]

nah
worried it might fall or might lost

idk (i am new to this game)

[balmy cedar]

Dw. It won't have those things happen

[near path]

It won't fall, and you can call it like any other ship

Have the launch auto recharge upgrade on and it will never run out of launch fuel 🙂

[balmy cedar]

Or Azimuth reactors

[near path]

Or that

[balmy cedar]

Those recharge pulse fuel and Launch fuel I'm fairly certain

[fervent mist]

when it hovers and if I summor will it land or will come flying with that beam

[near path]

it will land

Reactors are an odd ball part, as you can have 3 of each type and get the full upgrade effects from them all

[fair pilot]

There is also save-editing option, but better to not xD

[fervent mist]

i see

[balmy cedar]

That's not able to be done on Console

[fervent mist]

yeah i guess thats why I dont feel like calling him down

[balmy cedar]

Lowkey I never liked the idea of editing my saves

Then again I hate coding with a passion....

[fair pilot]

(I've een corvette with vesper sail save-edited on it)

Ain't shit (again)

At least it not clipped into me

[near path]

Is that because you are using a thunderbird loading bay?

[fair pilot]

No, it's just glitched ship positioning after teleport, corvette-only thing.

Because we have no specific place where they can be moored

[near path]

Never had that happen. I suppose it happens more on the larger creations

[fair pilot]

what

Current situation with the teleport and base.

[tame patio]

You know, if hello games did add vesper sails into corvettes then it would make it even more overpowered as now you don't need tritium for pulse engine as it recharges.

[elder iron]

I dont think theyre gonna do that tbh, precisely for that reason

Vesper sails recharging pulse drive makes the solar ships more unique than before

[tame patio]

Yeah, at least I think it was pulse drive recharge. I might be wrong.

[elder iron]

I think it does, but that was added a bit after the solar ships themselves were

[tame patio]

I think I am wrong, it has insane efficiency and says launch system.

But that combined with all the bonus would just lead insanely efficient ships that could probably go to all planets 20 times before being at a point to recharge.

[elder iron]

I'd still prefer solars to be the most efficient ships in terms of pulse

[tame patio]

True, if they lose that to corvette then the only reason to get them would then be the looks.

Man

I just had a thought... I'll be writing a zendesk thing IG

[tawny plume]

How does one get the atlas corvette parts i never really understood on how to obtain them?

[terse kestrel]

You have to do expedition 20. If you missed it they are going to be redoing it here in a few weeks. Doing their annual expedition redux

[glass surge]

You had to have done and completed the Breach Expedition 20the redux will be in late December to January so you can still get them then

[tawny plume]

Thanks you two, i did start that expedition but never finished it. Good to know that a rerun is around the corner

[austere rover]

I'm gonna snatch the Normandy this time, missed it the last two times

[balmy cedar]

I changed my lobster

Right is the one I knocked off

Credit where credit's due, the other dude knows where it's at man

I just realized

His claws are longer...

[terse kestrel]

I like your blue lobster look better tbh

[balmy cedar]

Thx

I think I'll keep the different claws

More diffs between mine and the original

[terse kestrel]

If someone with a big corvette could help me run a test and place two or three byte beat machines on their ship somewhere. See if all three of them play or if they shut off after you place two of them.

All my Corvettes are smaller and I can replace two byte beats machines. All my lights shut off and the byte beats don't work anymore.

So this shows that a Corvette has a maximum power output. And I don't know if it's the same for each Corvette or based on how many habs or reactors you may have

[balmy cedar]

Hmm

We need the ability to combine Corvettes

Heck...

Perhaps mechanical form shifting

(I just wanna make lobster Voltron)

[fair pilot]

How big?

Mine is 3.5 hubs long internally. Or 4...

[crystal harness]

has anyone else had the problem where they put something to refine in their large refiner on freighter and after warping it disappeared?

[elder iron]

Yes!

Idk why youre asking here though

[crystal harness]

oh sorry this is the wrong place to ask this, moving to questions channel

[glass surge]

This happens to any ship and refiner when warping and a long known issue either stop before warp or start it after you get to your destination.

IT's mostly due to how the game renders and derenders things when you're not near them

[crystal harness]

@elder iron @glass surge thanks guys

[elder iron]

No problem

[balmy cedar]

Hmm

By george I think I did it

[velvet ruin]

lobter

[balmy cedar]

I changed the claws

The RSF Zoidberg can now go "weblebleblebleb," all it wants

Now, I think I've hit max potential

Beyond cosmetic changes ofc

[glass surge]

nah you got more tech slots open you can probably optimize more

[balmy cedar]

Probably

I'm happy with the damage

I don't need to do a krillion and six dps to whatever poor pirates meet me

[terse kestrel]

"Krillion and six"

Words

[sweet rune]

Anyone know what components should I trade with for this cockpit?

[glass surge]

try a spare reactor if you have one it's pretty much a guessing game of what extra's you're willing to let go and they'll accept

[mighty laurel]

How to improve my corvettes maneuverability and speed?

Or just make it better for combat in general

[swift mist]

upgrade its rank in a space station and add pulse engine modules to supercharged slots

phase beam is arguably the strongest weapon on corvettes because of a bug if you're fine with taking advantage of it

[balmy cedar]

Adjacent slots

[pseudo forge]

Like how the reactors create the design on this one.

[terse kestrel]

Trying to find a way to get a cockpit in the tower of my Corvette is proving difficult

[cedar trench]

Whale

[craggy quiver]

Anyone got the new corvette parts they can spare? I just like building corvettes and bases, I don’t really do the whole expedition stuff

[lean breach]

Aeron ones?

[craggy quiver]

Yes

[lean breach]

I should be able to make some, if i got enough resources that is. Gimme like 5 or 10 mins

[craggy quiver]

Alright just let me know

[lean breach]

Good thing i kept some of my salvaged glass

will do? Or you need some more copies of specific parts?

[craggy quiver]

That’ll do thanks

[lean breach]

Aight. Now you'll just have to explain how the hell am i supposed to find you

[craggy quiver]

At the moment I’m in the anomaly

Ima bout to leave and I’ll give you my location

[lean breach]

i wonder if anyone made a railjack corvette or orbiter like from warframe

[craggy quiver]

It says version mismatch for me too, weird

[lean breach]

Mine is 4199

[glass surge]

Yeah with PC being updated you probably won't be able to play with Xbox since there is a issue that cause the xbox version to bug out when paused once they have a patch out of experimental then it'll be pushed with the event to xbox i assume

[craggy quiver]

Mine is version 6.11 tho?

Since I’m on Xbox and all

[glass surge]

We're on 6.16 on steam

Here are the patch notes on steam for the experimental branch

[craggy quiver]

Agreed

[marble onyx]

Awesome Screenshot! I'm gonna borrow some inspiration from this for one of mine only with rainbows and planet rings in the background 😛

[exotic cove]

i have a question that might not have an answer. what is the theoretical limit for the total power of a corvette? like highest possible of every stat. if you had every x class upgrade module be the maximum value it can be with the most optimized ship parts. do we know the highest stats a corvette can have? and if so, how does one actually build that?

[marble onyx]

no clue about abslolute max but one of my vette builds has 3668 manuverability and 188k damage

[exotic cove]

what does your build and module setup look like?

it seems to me like it mostly depends on duping sus packets and pulling hundreds of x class until you get bored.

[marble onyx]

i also use figurines and trails

[exotic cove]

yea

[marble onyx]

lemme get a pic real fast

[exotic cove]

i cant seem to get my dmg potential past 400, but the dps displayed on my main weapon is around 20k

ive got around 2800 maneuver and 600 warp

[marble onyx]

dont worry about that number

thats a cumulative stat that doesnt rly apply

it would require you firing all weapons at once and isnt accurate anyway

[exotic cove]

yea that makes sense

[marble onyx]

only worry about the damage stat that your main weapon shows when you mouse ove it

i use exclusively infra knive

it erases everything at 188k lol

[exotic cove]

i dont even do pvp or anything like that, but im the type of person that optimizes the crap out of literally everything.

[marble onyx]

i need to rearange my mods cause they keep moving around. will have a pic soon

[exotic cove]

alr

[marble onyx]

hhope they fix that

[exotic cove]

its like placing an image in excel

[marble onyx]

somehow ended up with higher manuv this time lol

damage is 100k on the infra knife with no boosted slots on it

even 100k cuts pirates in half

[exotic cove]

nice nice

you could get wayyyyyyy bigger numbers if you arranged everything just right

like exponentially bigger numbers

[marble onyx]

ive never rly understood all the the way i would like

[exotic cove]

https://nms-optimizer.app/?platform=corvette

use this

works pretty good

[marble onyx]

kk ill try it

[exotic cove]

read the whole instructions thing

you gotta fiddle around with it a lot. i spent around 3 hours today trying every combo i could to see which had the best results. its a lotta complicated math that you cant find anywhere on the internet, so its basically just trial and error. that app just makes it easier

the only website i found that kinda explained the math behind it was made before sc slots existed

ight i gotta go to bed. if you get better results after using that, dm me or smth.

im really curious how big them numbers can get

[neon bay]

Still trying to find a way to meld the new parts into my designs

[marble onyx]

i wasnt far off. i got about 10% imporvement on all stats

but thats 10% more thanks! 😛

[balmy cedar]

Space crab!

[clear plaza]

I just started building a new corvette > for interiors and addon designs allowed to be built on the corvettes will they cause crashes or a lot of lag?

Like flags and decorations and such?

I made a new save to try glitch building base parts on the corvette but it just crashes the game now

[past atlas]

Im planning to make a big corvette similar to this (its eternal storm and my favorite ship from infinite lagrange) will it have less maneuverability than smaller corvette?

[remote crypt]

No, they all have the same terrible starting maneuverability

Hauler levels

[past atlas]

💀

So the parts that i add doesnt affect the maneuver?

How about the shield, i see there is a lot of kind of shield generator

Idk if it just for look or they have their own speciality

[fair pilot]

@full umbra I'd offset some slopes/aerofoils there

Or rotate the arcadia wings, if it is ok for you

[remote crypt]

The core parts like shields, engine and such do contribute to those stats in the corvette. Up to 3 and then they are cosmetic

[clear plaza]

aye first 3 of each part is used for stats

[raven rover]

every piece you add, you lose a miniscule amount of maneuverability

But its negligible

my 400+ part corvette has a 72 maneuver stat

in the build screen stats at least

In the tech screen stats bcs of the thrusters etc its at 300ish unupgraded

[clear plaza]

how u go above 100 part limit?

[remote crypt]

Yes, my comment was based on vanilla game - over 100 structural parts is using a mod

[dry moat]

hello how can i obtain the ship part? i only can see the basic one

[clear plaza]

what ship part you looking for

waittttt do people trade corvette ship parts here?

[dry moat]

Corrvette ship i wanna have lot option when making my ship but i only see basic can buy but i see a lot of option that are grey out when building

[clear plaza]

2 ways can do it u can go farm for them on planets with salvageable scrap or change mode in difficulty to creative so the parts are free

for the parts you farm you can also trade them in the corvette crafting terminal for parts u want if u have alot of stuff u dont want

[dry moat]

How do i find that planet?

[clear plaza]

when you scan a planet by pressing c to scan on pc or using the scanner on the frieghter > it is a quite common modifier on the planets

[dry moat]

When i scan is it will say salvageable scrap?

[clear plaza]

Yes

[abstract crow]

That's the first step. Then you gotta actually find the buried scrap locations and dig them up. Or blow them up from your ship. Works better with a corvette.

[dry moat]

I see okay thanks i will try and is there any ppl post their ship for me for reference hehe

[dry moat]

Okay i try find the planet first

[clear plaza]

Every corvette I make I hate the way it looks so I keep making more

[oak belfry]

I've designed my first Corvette ever and I like it from the outside - quite a lot actually. But: the idea was to essentially make it into mobile base with full storage access and a farm. The issue is for looks I stacked all of the habs to do it vertically and while everything fits and looks neat, the interior is a hell to walk through with 3-5 hab levels stacked vertically and all the staircases on both ends of the ship. Is it even possible to put storage and living walls on the sides of a hab which has another hab directly adjacent to its side, so I could essentially have rooms next to each other without the staircases?

[remote crypt]

You can even block off the doorway to an adjacent hab with those wall modules

So yes, the shared wall can have modules on both sides

[oak belfry]

Oh good, then time for a new corvette built, single-story this time. I assume connecting two habs with another hab is the only way to have a corridor though - or are there any modules which allow just to walk through but not installing anything on the sides?

I know ultimately I could have short range teleporters but I think of it as a last resort as it's annoying to set up.

[clear plaza]

you can make open areas on the corvette

[oak belfry]

But there is no door module, or is there?

[remote crypt]

Nope

[oak belfry]

So I can only leave a hab from the ceiling or the floor.

[remote crypt]

No expansion rooms like the freighter either

[remote crypt]

Yep

[abstract crow]

Maybe one day we'll get doors...

[remote crypt]

Lol so weird that we don't have them already

[past atlas]

I see, and if i put them inside the ship, i mean like hide it somewhere inside the ship, will the stat reduced? (I think this is a ridiculous question, but i have to make sure)

[remote crypt]

Nope, connected is connected even if with tricks

[abstract crow]

Sean and his people pushed the corvette update out, sat back to watch the monstrosities we'd crank out, then sat up like in Home Alone and went "DOORS!"

[past atlas]

So, the one that build nokia phone is using the mod? Cause it seems like you need lot of parts

[remote crypt]

Umm, maybe not - wasn't quite a bit of that decorations?

[past atlas]

If it works it works ahhh situation

Alright

[remote crypt]

Structural parts are all that count against the 100 part cap, base decorations use your remaining base part count

[tranquil hedge]

help, im getting lazy to decorate the rooms in my corvette, 6 bedrooms

[past atlas]

So thats how it is

[tranquil hedge]

[past atlas]

And to get the supercharged slot, is it gacha? To get the sc that close each other

[clear plaza]

u can rotate the landing bay doors is what i do to make internal doors or the thunderbird lift thing lower u down into the room is niceor u can just have internal stairs out into it also

[clear plaza]

yeah its gacha

[past atlas]

Oh man

Lets say i got a pretty bad sc placement

[clear plaza]

is my second 4 supercharged slot one

[past atlas]

What if i remove the storage thing and replace it back?

:>

[past atlas]

Thats pretty cool

[clear plaza]

doesnt work

[dawn fulcrum]

i cant figuire out how to place these like this in the tutorial im following

[clear plaza]

glitch building?

[dawn fulcrum]

i think she said no glitches

[past atlas]

But, is there any trick for it? Or do i have to reset the entire corvette?

Place the vent like this then place the girder thing on it then remove the vent

maybe there is easier way but i dunno it

[dawn fulcrum]

got it

thanks

[terse kestrel]

What parts are we talking about about exactly? Because even though they said no glitch building it still looks like they used offsets and rotations.

And a lot of us do not consider these glitch building methods. Like the act of flipping something around that's not supposed to be can be considered a glitch. But the method of us getting there is just manipulating pre-built snap points that work within the parameters of the building mechanics

[vernal vault]

My new afk spot.. Chilling on my wing 😶‍🌫️

work just as good in orbit 😉

[cobalt sable]

How many corvetne parts are there? From salvage containers i found 117 of them.

[limpid quiver]

the salvage ones + ones from breach and the corvette expedition

[cobalt sable]

No no, no expedition, only salvage

Idk if i waste time to grinding them for new entrjes in list

[vernal vault]

I'm always torn on the hull.. Gun metal:

[terse kestrel]

Really scrap farming is not a waste of time. Whatever you don't use you can sell and for single cost items they are extremely valuable.

[limpid quiver]

ye

or save up for later

[vernal vault]

Or Ship-Gray I call it:

we could do with a few more options painting these I think, but love where we are in terms of Parts-in-game to build these.

[limpid quiver]

just make the iron vulture paint available for corvettes

:D

[random zinc]

Expedition done. Time to get back to tweaking my corvette

@vernal vault I prefer the gunmetal, but they both look good

What's the distance from landing bay to cockpit?

[vernal vault]

all one level

[terse kestrel]

There are dozens of color combinations when you learn how to use colors from freighters and Planet Side bases on your Corvette

https://youtu.be/OChJFfIEzI0?si=sy7UbfaAKtHjxmeA

There's a full tutorial with a quick video that shows how to pull it off easily

[random zinc]

I don't really grok the images, but it looks like 1 walkway length from the thunderbird landing bay to the cockpit?

[terse kestrel]

It's also the only way you can change the color of your Atlas parts. They will always stay black unless you apply colors from your freighter or base to it

[vernal vault]

for many reasons I have both. Leaving the ship Via the back or under parts are not the same in terms of the way your jetpack acts, and often have different uses.. like using the drop down bay for scanning without landing, also means you can set up a sniper nest anywhere etc.

[terse kestrel]

All brown atlas parts

[random zinc]

My answer to the color options from bases and freighters is still "meh". They should allow arbitrary base and accent colors rather than predefined combinations.

[abstract crow]

Give us a color wheel

[vernal vault]

Yeah I lean towards it.. Ship-gray shows more of the hull smaller details. Gunmetal has that shine factor that makes it POP. All parts are perfect snap, no real tricks used. I love it 💯 it handles like a total dream.

[random zinc]

even if not a color wheel and just a few (say 8 or 12) colors, allowing any combination of base and accent color would give us an enormous palette.

[random zinc]

Where does the game put you when you reload from the game saved from leaving the seat at a station? Back or middle?

[somber grotto]

yo where do I buy more corvette parts? I have a few and dont know where they came from lmao

[random zinc]

you can trade for them at the build console

[limpid quiver]

the corvette workshop terminal

or just go to a planet with salvaged scrap

[somber grotto]

😭

I guess I wasnt paying attention at the console

[random zinc]

I still haven't found most of those vertical pieces in the wild

[limpid quiver]

does the build console offers even change

per station

[random zinc]

though I've only spent about 10 hours salvaging after they were added

[somber grotto]

What is this salvaged scrap?

[random zinc]

planets can have the salvageable scrap characteristic

on those planets you find salvage containers

shoot them and you get corvette parts among other things

[somber grotto]

oh wtf

[random zinc]

I enjoy this particular activity, way more than fishing 🙂

if you have a corvette, you don't even need to leave it to hunt for salvageable scrap

[vernal vault]

yeah it's close.

[random zinc]

your design is one of those that discourage me from corvette building. It's beatiful.

[random zinc]

the only thing I don't like is the aeron shield generator on the bottom, but I don't like any of those aeron parts

[vernal vault]

tbh it's super simple to build, no tricks needed

just need the parts

I have other designs but resting on this for now

[random zinc]

how much wall space is there?

I need 13 or 14 wall spaces, so my ship is kinda off-looking

[abstract crow]

Gasp how dare you insult the new parts

[vernal vault]

yeah same, to big, awk snapping.. It's more "oh hey I have one atlas part on :P" type of thing. 😆

[abstract crow]

Or is that red orb not the part you're talking about

[random zinc]

I didn't. just said I don't like them

[abstract crow]

Gasp again

[random zinc]

it's not an insult, just a preference

[hoary agate]

I dont like corvettes overall

[vernal vault]

under this ship, but the design means you can free walk under most parts no problem.

[abstract crow]

I should take a photo of the interior of my latest cruiser. Two of those things are floating ominously inside the interior and looks cool

[random zinc]

I have gotten stuck walking in slow mode under my ship, so I've shied away from under-the-ship disembarkation points

[vernal vault]

12 walls if you look above, you will see the layout inside

all "rooms" plus 7x storage

[random zinc]

it's all preference. I don't like it when anything clips into the interior, except for the little bitty thing from the landing thrusters that sits flush with the floor

[near path]

Looks like a headcrab from Half-Life

[abstract crow]

They don't clip, per say. The interior is open, so they just hover in mid-air

[random zinc]

10 storage, nutrition unit, and 2 refiners is my minimum.

[vernal vault]

same, I avoid clipping. Almost all parts are perfect snap, and next to no obvious meshing. So the ship looks and feels Real

[random zinc]

let me rephrase. I don't like it when any exterior part encroaches upon the interior of the ship 🙂

[abstract crow]

I think you'd still enjoy this design. If I put short pillars under them, they'd look even better. But I have a massive list of interior design projects to do.

[vernal vault]

7 store, radar, nutrition unit, x1 refiner, med pod (if it ever works).. x1 grow bay for my nipnip buds XD min. However, I have been thinking about trying to add 4 more walls somewhere without scuffing the overall build shape.

[random zinc]

You're a better traveller than I. I have resorted to offet building (to get symmetry and to center a part vertically with two habs), 180° rotation (to fit 2 reactors in the space of one), and snap point removal (to place reactors over the hatch).

the most annoying thing with glitch building is the stuff you need to do when you want to modify the corvette.

tbh, I hated the flat parts of the top of my corvette, but after putting stairs there I have realized a great viewing platform.

I even put one of those star silk chairs up there

[terse kestrel]

Considering how badly some of these parts stick out and don't line up with each other it creates extremely non-aerodynamic messes that wouldn't exist IRL 😂

[random zinc]

why do you need aerodynamics in space

[hoary agate]

To better bounce off micro asteroids and dust

[terse kestrel]

Because we take our spaceships on planets and expect it to fly max speed through extremely violent windy storms

Having all those bulges and flat points sticking out would create drag. It's slow us down and is not natural

[random zinc]

that's what thrusters are for 🙂

[vernal vault]

I done a bunch of max speed testing for the spin-glitch bug to find the best STABLE top speed/maneuverability to use (3200maneuverability) is the mark before you start to glitch out with wilding spinning when going to planets. So as a habit I build now with as little offset/tricks/off build etc.. as I can, such things can glitch you at high speeds or turns I've found.

[terse kestrel]

Like very few of the legacy ships have all those flat parts sticking out, unnecessary bulges.

The majority of legacy ships are smooth and sleek. Rounded off parts without pieces sticking out all over the place

The ones that are supposed to be fast look like they're supposed to be fast. The ones that are typically slower look like they're supposed to be. Like the boxy haulers

Building these bricks with chunks sticking out all over the place and getting them to fly faster than any smooth exotic or explorer is silly.

[random zinc]

freighters and frigates look pretty non-aerodynamic to me

[terse kestrel]

Freighters and frigates stay in space in upper orbit. They don't go down to the planet and they don't fly through storms. They don't have to deal with environmental wind shear and Gusts

[random zinc]

corvettes are supposedly half-way to frigate

[terse kestrel]

In fact every freighter that we've seen on the planet has been crashed. So there's that 😂

[abstract crow]

Tbf, these ships aren't only for space. We do typically bring them to the surface of planets. Aerodynamics are necessary there

[terse kestrel]

A Corvette is a naval vehicle that specializes in speed and maneuverability. That's why they named a car after the class

[random zinc]

so is your corvette more freighter-like or more starship-like. Your choice

[terse kestrel]

Which is why naval Corvettes and automotive Corvettes are sleek and aerodynamic...... Meanwhile we're flying around bricks with chunks sticking out all over the place

Frigates and freighters are classically big, bulky and non-aerodynamic. Whether you're talking about naval or space faring. They got the look of those just right

[abstract crow]

My large corvettes are definitely freighters, but they still have some aerodynamics to them. My smaller ones are more profound.

[terse kestrel]

My point is using certain tactics to make your Corvette seem smoother, more aerodynamic and visually faster lines up with how a Corvette should be IRL

[random zinc]

well I've only seen corvettes crashed in space

[terse kestrel]

So saying a spaceship doesn't look real because you use certain methods to mesh parts together so that they are smoother is contradictory..... Corvette are supposed to be smoother than we can naturally build them in game

[random zinc]

ok, sure but apparently they glitch out in flight when you do that

(something I didn't know before today)

[vernal vault]

Keep it below 3200 to stop all glitching

[terse kestrel]

How did that happen? The only time I've ever had flight physics break was forcing base parts onto a Corvette that shouldn't have been there

It was like I was slamming into invisible walls and it was spinning out. Once I deleted what should not have been there it was fine

[random zinc]

Commander Katman has apparently tested it

[terse kestrel]

I have a Corvette at 4100 and I don't have any issues with flight controls or glitching during flight

[random zinc]

hey to me it's second hand information

[vernal vault]

aerodynamics of it make me all warm inside when using it. It matters 🫠

[terse kestrel]

I mean I think I only have one Corvette under 3,500. But a lot of times I'm building I take breaks and fly around the space station outside to test it. Before taking it back in to start building more

If something breaks I delete whatever I built since last test and try something else

[vernal vault]

and if you go around nuking whole fleets or get in to extended combat.. the aerodynamics 100% matter in how fast and clean you can clear waves

a brick is going to take way longer to clear?

[random zinc]

I agree, but I still suck at it given my design constraints

[vernal vault]

ngl I've played most good space based games of our time. Dev man did a very good job here all in all.. Lot's to build on.

[terse kestrel]

Come again?

I killed that dreadnought in less than 2 minutes using a flying restaurant 😂

[vernal vault]

haha love it

[terse kestrel]

Pure NMS shenanigans

Pirates should learn to tip their servers 😡

[random zinc]

these constraints being

• no more than 4 seconds running from just outside landing bay to cockpit
• 13 wall spots
• no stairs between landing bay and cockpit
• unobstructed windows just behind the cockpit
• avoid things that get you stuck under the ship
• 3000 maneuverability
• unobstructed cockpit

[vernal vault]

I have like 20-30 pictures now of all the insane builds that have come to anom etc. I love the freedom We've been given for sure.

[vernal vault]

best pirate ship so far I've seen

only after that do I go for aesthetics, but those constraints make some nice shapes impossible

(at least for my skills)

[vernal vault]

wait there is a place for me to spam my wicked ship pictures.. bot did good XD

[random zinc]

I always and still wonder how you do those sails

[vernal vault]

yeah I like my ships to have that deeper level of immersion where they feel and act like a "space ship" I would fly, rather than something not.

[abstract crow]

I build big space boats.

[vernal vault]

I wish there was no upper glitch limit at all tbh, and wish they would just fix it. Both of my S-class Corvettes could go 4500-5000+ easy. But I'm forced to limit it.

However 3k'ish feels real nice in most cases, any more is excessive.

[burnt cosmos]

is there a way to exceed the complexity limit by a small amount without any mods?

[shadow wraith]

That's rookie numbers lmao

I think the most I did was 32,000u/s

(This is a joke btw. Those numbers are attained by managing to glitch out two pulse engines, and in reality it just moves in like 2,800u/s)

I do recall having a glitched engine on a fighter being too fast, so it's probably just a corvette limitation

[terse kestrel]

We are capped at a certain actual travel speed due to terrain loading and other restrictions. Past a certain speed your on board speeds you see are just numbers going

[shadow wraith]

Oh, so the 8,000u/s fighter I had was still limited

Sad

[fair pilot]

@burnt cosmos only way I found - do not place windows, place them in inventory building mode.

[burnt cosmos]

thanks a lot mate, it works just fine! do you have any idea about the limit of this method?

[fair pilot]

Well, number of windows in your build.

2 windows? +2 parts over. 12 windows? +12.

[random zinc]

to the person who helped me put barriers on my staircase, thanks. I finally got it done.

[burnt cosmos]

oh wow that opens up few things in my current build then lol

[fair pilot]

For my builds it does nothing, because the only window I have is cockpit...

😄

[burnt cosmos]

just make a corvette with windows only lmao

[fair pilot]

I'd use them more, but their default shape is awful

And "small" windows are too small.
And visually cramped.

[burnt cosmos]

i dont mind the seamless ones but yeah, i understand what you mean

also the intersections bug me off quite a lot watching them from the inside

[calm rune]

Hi, does anyone know if getting a 2 by 2 square supercharged layout is possible on the corvette?

[fair pilot]

gamble

[calm rune]

is it fairly rare?

[fair pilot]

As rare as 2x2 on any other ship or multitool

[terse kestrel]

I settled for this SC setup after building and selling 6 or 7 Corvettes

Not ideal but still fine for what I needed

[calm rune]

whoa thats a nice SC layout

[terse kestrel]

The 4 SC slots in a square are for weapons or tech that has very few options tech beside it.

But when talking about pulse drives and warping you have so many Tech modules to use you can spread them out to reach SC slots easily. While losing very small percentages in stats overall

I'm definitely going to be duping this thing in every expedition though. Not going to bother trying to reroll a new Corvette

[calm rune]

gotcha, thanks for the info

[terse ingot]

did anyone somehow manage to get short range teleporters working on corvettes?

[fair pilot]

Only through mods

[terse ingot]

hm ok

thanks

[terse kestrel]

I've heard people talk about Corvette meetups where a bunch of people show up like a car show. Anyone know where these are and when?

[thick bison]

no

i dont

[abstract crow]

I think I've seen quite a few on Sundays. Makes me sad that no one will ever experience getting lost in my cruisers besides me.

[marble onyx]

Some times i park at the anomoly and just watch the traffic. i pick up ideas and peeps get to explore my ship

[fair pilot]

One was yesterday and supposed to go through the weekends

https://www.reddit.com/r/NOMANSSKY/s/qkH8tSrIOd

[terse kestrel]

Omfg its beautiful

Like an entire cathedral

[distant shard]

Seems that I can only have three of these be cosmetically functional while the other three look dead and out of place.... 😔

[fair pilot]

This is a game limitation

install mod for that (I did that)

The only one I installed.

[errant depot]

Idk who needs to hear this, but the titan class cockpit can be offset into a hab and used through the wall, and will disembark on the correct side of the wall as not to trap you

[abstract crow]

That mod almost broke my save two updates ago for some reason, so be careful. Might not be a problem now, but still.

[terse kestrel]

Are any of those offset? Or are they in the normal place that they should be in?

[distant shard]

Normal place

[terse kestrel]

I was asking because I've noticed when they get offset they almost never fire. But they're more likely to do it if you have them in the normal spot

All four of these always fire all the time. And I don't know what I did to make them work properly 😂

[distant shard]

Yea, I have moved them around to experiment. Three seems to be the common factor for me. I haven't been able to get more than that to work lol.

[oak belfry]

Is there any way or a mod to make the view and navigation in base building mode for corvettes not suck so incredibly much?
