[sharp raft]

For now..permadeath. Good lord

[brave jolt]

maybe there gonna add ark style dinos

[random arrow]

update is just a bug fix and one addition

new bones

fixed bone gathering

[restive jolt]

reconstruct a skeleton out of bones

[brave jolt]

oh i got it, there gonna bring in kevin hart for a crossover

[steep quarry]

Cause bone tweet, I presume it’s either an update to ancient bones or an update to companions, idk which

[random arrow]

Where is worlds part 67

[clever meadow]

I just found this planet... and... wtf is this name ?

[brave jolt]

kevin hart is gonna do the voice overs for the next expedition

[restive jolt]

wow it's ukraine

[somber vortex]

Kiev G45 is the name

Whoa

[restive jolt]

now that's not nice

🧐

[clever meadow]

Ayoooo

[placid bane]

Hey, is it possible to get my progress from the ps4 version to the ps5 version because i really dont want to start over again and i want better performance?

[white bluff]

Just landed ^

[halcyon tide]

i think you can

not sure how tho

[random arrow]

turtle fr

[placid bane]

I dont want to start over after so many hiurs but i will try it, thanks tho

[restive jolt]

where is their head

[random arrow]

I ate it

[restive jolt]

happens

[random arrow]

got hungry before the pic

[clever meadow]

O.o

[restive jolt]

someone must have named it that

[random arrow]

I think it'd be a cool idea to fly through that

[clever meadow]

Naaaa, I will stay inside my ship

[white bluff]

Are the satellites of a gas giant or other type of giant all called moons, in the purple systems?

[ember estuary]

Is it possible to send images?

[wraith bough]

[restive jolt]

they are all moons I think yeah

[wraith bough]

I'm actually intrigued, what could bones mean

[dusk sluice]

Fossils for extinct animals so we can find out what they were

[restive jolt]

either pet update or something archeological

[dusk sluice]

Or a teaser for the next expedition

[restive jolt]

extinct animals are just animals from previous major generation updates

[wraith bough]

...new depths's leviathans

[dusk sluice]

oh

[thorn beacon]

WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME

[stuck tide]

It was more quick than i think

[dusk sluice]

Gekvincible

[thorn beacon]

Bonessss

Hmmmmmmm

[stuck tide]

Yes i think its just an expedition

[finite ibex]

hi

[dusk sluice]

🦴

[finite ibex]

i wish we could beriend the sentinals

besides that one questline i mean

[spiral pivot]

I wish HG had a different system for expeditions. The emojis just make people think it's a big update

[finite ibex]

?

[languid forge]

Oh, is it free update time already?

[sharp raft]

Sometimes it is. We shall see.

[finite ibex]

what is the latest with you all

i think everyone is asleep

aw well

[thorn beacon]

He usually posts an emoji cowboy and stuff if it's a bigger update

We will have to wait and see if he does

Jason got my hopes up with a companion overhaul lmao

[spiral pivot]

I can't watch NMS youtubers. Captain Steve has such crazy theories lol

[stuck tide]

What grok ai think about this teaser

[thorn beacon]

He's awesome though

[thorn beacon]

That's pretty cool

[umbral sequoia]

It could well be something about pets or archeology but it could also just be a new expedition. The current expedition ends Wednesday so a new one will most likely start immediately after. Whether there is any update beyond that it's hard to say.

[thorn beacon]

Now I'm on the fence on whether to expect an expedition or get my hopes up for a companion overhaul I hope he tweets more so we can get an idea of the update size

[random arrow]

I don't think a bone emoji points to anything with pets, overthinking it a little

It might though

Wouldn't get my hopes up

[thorn beacon]

Ok

[stuck tide]

Yes, I said above that I am also thinking of a simple expedition

[thorn beacon]

Probably an exped

[random arrow]

probably ancient bone stuff

or that

or more to ruins

[thorn beacon]

I will be on vacation during that time

[thorn beacon]

Maybe expand on ||that giant traveler statue in the ground that leaked||

[random arrow]

the expedition will begin the minute you go on vacation and end the second you're back

[random arrow]

that'd be interesting too

history update

[thorn beacon]

Yeah definitely

History class update 🔥🔥

[finite ibex]

no mans sky with accual way to learn and document history would be epic tho

ad they added a journal

and ways to money o it

that would be great

[thorn beacon]

Imo that would be boring as hell

[sweet dragon]

I love extremely high plateaus on purple system planets

I got a base on one of them and it's so cool seeing the curvature from up there

[lament spade]

The main quest was so boring that I actually unlocked a lot of endgame content before finally coming back to the main story and just breezing through all the quests. Only reason I did them is so I could unlock the purple star systems.

I like the lore though.

[maiden nebula]

So... a couple of observations, from someone who's been out of the game for months.

1. Is it just me or are "uncommon items" like Grave-sites & Mouldy Balls more plentiful and easy to find now?

2. Also, it appears there's a bug in the game that lets you claim the Grave multiple times by save/restart.

[ionic lintel]

I've seen more graves the last couple weeks than in any other time playing

in fact I had never seen a grave

other than the quest ones

[buoyant fern]

Reload abuse is old news. As for grave frequency I've seen like ..1 this month

[vapid plaza]

Studying for my Urine Exams.

[buoyant fern]

Murderface wants to know your location lol

Please someone else get the reference

[vapid plaza]

I'd tell you my location, but I have something in my eye.

[buoyant fern]

Lol no I'm good I was just remembering dethklok

A character on the show constantly referenced a band named planet piss and your comment reminded me

[vapid plaza]

My new squadron of flying pancakes.

[maiden nebula]

I try not to abuse the reload glitch, but it was a while before I caught on that graves were respawning

[wheat grove]

looks like you dropped some pancakes

[sharp raft]

Evacuate! It’s the PANCAKES!

[wheat grove]

proporgating the planet with pancake plants and animals hmm

[sharp raft]

I think they being chased by thems…

[buoyant fern]

Not judging man
Game literally has a free mode lol

[spiral rivet]

I wonder why HG locked cold storage to 18? If we're doing a cap, why not 16? But my real question is "why not infinity"?

[sharp raft]

Hoarding tsk. 18 is more than enough.. and as for 16.. do you not see the clues? 🙂

|| the autophage introduced the 17th.. the void mother.. seems to be gearing up towards the 18th.. ||

[spiral rivet]

Ofc, for a game themed so heavily around "16" seems odd they would arbitrarily pick 18 for a cap like that lol

[sweet dragon]

I still don't get why the base part limit is 16k

[sharp raft]

Server limits.

[spiral rivet]

THats one place where a max actually does make sense even though its sad

[sweet dragon]

I get it if it's to prevent lag but if that's the case why not set a limit per specific base instead of all parts in all your bases

[spiral rivet]

Because of people like me

[sharp raft]

There already is a limit per base. 3k. If you go over that the base computer will not upload it

[spiral rivet]

I was literally setting out to build bases on all of 1,600 or so planets in a star region I found named "eagles"

[sweet dragon]

Why not make it 16k per base and remove the total part limiter

[stuck tide]

Not possible, server side

[sharp raft]

Again I am presuming server limits. Remember we are not the only ones in the universe. If EVERYONE was building that much how much space did you think that would actually take up?

[spiral rivet]

Again, people like me are insane. There will always be someone who be like "sweet Im gonna build save and upload 20,000 full scale metropolitan cities

[wheat grove]

[spiral rivet]

Hi Dragon

[wheat grove]

morning @spiral rivet

[stuck tide]

Kinda already exist lol

[sweet dragon]

Not that much i reckon considering the sheer scale of the game

[spiral rivet]

For an entire organization of players, not for each and every one

[sweet dragon]

I wanna state for the record that I think the 400 bases limit is fair

[sharp raft]

I disagree sir. Keeping the server updated so that all players would then still have the SAME information about EACH base.. would indeed take up a nice chunk to ensure that everyone can find the SAME thing in the same place.. where oyu put it 🙂

[spiral rivet]

II think we should just have an uploaded limiter personally, and the localized data should be unlimited. We sorta already have that in place. Should lean into that rather than borking peoples saves if they build too much. Let our personal pocket dimensions pocket dimension

[buoyant fern]

I feel like the Atlas is laughing at me. Probably changing planet colors as I land like a jerk

[spiral rivet]

It ruined my effort to colonize my star region though 😦

Had to spend like a week going to and deleting about 300+ bases since their premise was rendered impossible 😢

[untold cove]

Do I remember correctly from when I used to play that there was either a way or a setting that hides wires/cables in your base ?

[lean fractal]

yooo - @spiral rivet !

[spiral rivet]

There is both a placeable part and a mod I made named stealth wires, so yes to both

[lean fractal]

also, Mitey! 🙂

[spiral rivet]

hey bk whatup

[tulip oar]

h

hi

[wheat grove]

bkay entity!

[lean fractal]

all good, you? long time no see

[tulip oar]

meow meow

[spiral rivet]

Worlds 2 lookin pretty sweet Im probably about to play first substantial run in several years 🙂

[vapid plaza]

actually once you hit 316 or so, the game starts bugging out and crashing if you try to open warp map in multiplayer.

[lean fractal]

prettyyyy

[vapid plaza]

316+freighter+settlement

[spiral rivet]

Ye I was seeing those notes on the water and I was just like "dear god finally, its about time XD

I still see some obvi mistakes in rendering but it alsso (from the promo pics) looks like a LOT of them were honestly addressed, which is great

[lean fractal]

game looks amazing now even in vanilla

[spiral rivet]

Theres one picture where the background planet's reflection is significantly misaligned from the planet.... odd

Also looks like the "oddly London-darkened ground" syndrome might be gone

I hope cloud shadows got that enhancement too, Could shadows used to be god-awful, every time it came over, everything just looked like dark playdoh it was really not great

I should quit typing and open the game then I won't be guessing based on promo pics anymore 😄

[vapid plaza]

😄 Chameleon Desert

[wheat grove]

[glad wedge]

Yo does anyone remember the in stellar mutlitudes side mission

What do the payload memories mean?

[spiral rivet]

@lean fractal@wheat groveSo, I haven't played almost at all in around four years except to do an expedition run or two. What would you suggest? resume an old save or start from a scratcch new file?

[glad wedge]

Like does it matter which set of memories I submit to the atlas?

[spiral rivet]

Oh crap my controller has a heavy dust layer on it, gotta clean it first lol

[wheat grove]

continue the same save 🙂 i did so too as the new quest is end game content

[lean fractal]

well, new biomes and moons with water are only in purple star systems, you'll need to complete a quest or use a mod to reveal them in the map

[glad wedge]

Try to use the mod quests are pretty long

Oh ya dems dusty stix

[vapid plaza]

i think youre talking about one of the encounters with the purple planet dude. in which case, it only decides which type of system you encounter first, no long term effect

[glad wedge]

Oh sweet alr. Ya last time I made a decision without knowing I messed up end of atlas path by rejecting

[vapid plaza]

rejecting isnt messing up.. there are two exclusive titles, and neither one bblocks you from any content other than the other title, and maybe one suit item which is redundant anyhow

[lean fractal]

@spiral rivet that said, if you're interested on more lore, definitely do the quests (they who returned, in stellar multitudes; !faq-echoes, !faq-purplesystems in #bot-spam for more info)

[spiral rivet]

Dang, this controller still had enough charge to attempt pairing while I was wiping it down

[thorn beacon]

What graphics you on?

[glad wedge]

Well i see it as I'm still in Euclid, missed a chance to finally go to another galaxy while bypassing atlatid drive headache lol

But ya it's been all the usual

[spiral rivet]

I'm thinking new file + Singularity drive BP hacked in. Any complaints?

[lean fractal]

1080p, fsr2 native, all ultra, af x16, gtao, a touch of reshading

[thorn beacon]

Bk what's ur thoughts on the new tweet you thinking an exped or a bigger update?

[thorn beacon]

Dang what frames you get?

[lean fractal]

hmm probably another exp

[spiral rivet]

Oh dang we already have another cryptic Shawn teaser?

[lean fractal]

75fps locked on all the way

[thorn beacon]

It's Sean actually

[thorn beacon]

Danggggggg what specs you got

[spiral rivet]

I knew that lol

[thorn beacon]

I'm gonna upgrade to a 4060 ti I hope I can get those framerates

[spiral rivet]

I was literally just gonna ask about that Ti

[lean fractal]

r7700x, 32GB, 6900xt, sammy 990pro

[thorn beacon]

Idk how good that is all I know is Nvidia numbers 😭😭

[spiral rivet]

Hey do we still need that little hack mod that defeats the short freeze it gets from exiting planets?

[thorn beacon]

Is that like a $5000 PC

[thorn beacon]

No that's fixed finally

[spiral rivet]

Cool

[thorn beacon]

Game feels new now that they fixed it

[lean fractal]

you'll do fine with that gpu i think, as long as you've got a cpu and storage device to back it up

[wheat grove]

i still remember the dreaded white screen when 5..5 first drop on ps5 🙃

[thorn beacon]

Yeah i7

[lean fractal]

thinking 1080p here

[spiral rivet]

I need to get a subwoofer again when I move in 2 months

these dinky satellites suck

Well actually theyre pretty good for a 2.0 set but 2.0's suck

[thorn beacon]

I was thinking about possibly getting another TB of storage but it seems like hell of a hassle to set up

[spiral rivet]

one?

[thorn beacon]

I have one another one

[lean fractal]

pinging you in #off-topic-bond-james-bond

[spiral rivet]

Its SMR so its write speeds don't caollapse if a transfer takes more than 30 seconds

[wheat grove]

@spiral rivet Sorry, but may i remind you that non-NMS pictures aren't allowed here.

[real laurel]

what should i be looking for in ships and stuff

[spiral rivet]

Its a standin for text, sry

[thorn beacon]

Wowww

2tb seems like enough for me hopefully

[half wave]

@spiral rivet doesn't look like NMS media repost in #off-topic-bond-james-bond

[spiral rivet]

What the controller I was talking about using for NMS?
But its spider-man red.
I mean Atlas red.

[buoyant fern]

An abandoned paradise planet with an abandoned paradise moon. Nice

[spiral rivet]

Anyway, gonna actually play now. I do have two screens up with this discord on one 🙂

[real laurel]

are hauler ships just super expensive

[wheat grove]

yea, they are kinda expensive due to their slot counts

[spiral rivet]

(Correct me if things have changed)
Haulers are not more expensive, their SLOTS are, haulers are just more likely to come with more of them initially and get priced as such

[vapid plaza]

price of ships is directly tied to number of clear cargo slots available, so yeah, cargo ships often pricey

[real laurel]

yeah i know nothing about ship hunting and i was wondering how i bought an s class for 15 million while some a tiers are like, 66m lol

[spiral rivet]

Except the .... I forget what their class is called, there's a cheap class

Shuttles

still slot scaled but way cheaper per slot

[real laurel]

still trying to find an exotic tho

[crisp wren]

Still need to go MT hunting...

[noble crow]

if I take on a new freighter, do all my "built" rooms carryover?

(do I just lose inventory/upgrades only?)

[wheat grove]

i find it kinda odd that MT slots keep increasing in price while ship's slots stops after certain amount

in normal case, 75mil

[spiral rivet]

lmao never could center that "start game" button XD

[wheat grove]

because things are always eccentric 🙂

[hardy tendon]

How'd y'all feel if you woke up and found yourself in NMS?

[lament spade]

You have the option to transfer your base/rooms to the new freighter before you buy it. But all of your technology/upgrades won’t be transferred unless you manually uninstall them from your freighter and install it to the new one.

[lament spade]

Probably panic because Idk how to build stuff, pilot a ship, ect.

[real laurel]

is there any way to sell a freighter without getting rid of the one i own?

[buoyant fern]

Freight not

[hardy tendon]

Daaaaang

[real laurel]

😭

[tulip oar]

meow meow

[noble crow]

word ty. Didn't want to have to dismantle all my rooms lol

[wheat grove]

even a paradise planet could have fluorine, would've be dead the moment we set foot

[noble crow]

gear is one thing but I got like 80 rooms and all the cosmetics and stuff in them lol

[wheat grove]

Fluorine + nitrogen atmo

[hardy tendon]

And then a hurricane begins to form

[ionic pendant]

Nitrogen gas combines with fluorine gas to form nitrogen trifluoride

[hardy tendon]

W h a t

[ionic pendant]

fluorine is just oxygen on steroids

[lean fractal]

animals have gone to sleep

well, almost all

that's an idea, right?

animals that sleep.

see them find a patch of grass, lay down for the night

[golden shale]

well shit an emoji

[lean fractal]

it's bed time for me; have fun everyone

[golden shale]

Bonesettlement

[wheat grove]

good night bkay entity!

[spiral rivet]

Oof nights are still deep blue instead of making sense with the ambient light and sky colors?

[golden shale]

i reckon poi expansion

[noble crow]

I read that upgrading ships (A → S) is better than finding "natrual" S-class ships. Does the same hold true for building custom ships? Should I build a C-class, and upgrade it all the way to S?

[lean fractal]

nite nite 🙂

[wheat grove]

i think it might be another expedition, but well we'll see about it

[lean fractal]

when building, you'd use a s-class reactor to make the ship s-class out the fabricator

and about the first part, not always - upgrading isn't always best, just as natural higher class aren't always best

[noble crow]

Ye I know I can build S right away but wasn't sure if it was better to "build A then upgrae later" or just build S right away

[lean fractal]

upgrading makes things ship seeded, while naturally spawned, for the most part, makes it randomized within gear type and class

[empty pawn]

@sharp raft WE DID IT Mythos and me got the wraith

[golden shale]

i fear it might be yeah

[lean fractal]

s right away; remember that you can try the same parts at different stations for different SC slot layouts

[golden shale]

No Man's Sky: Relic/Discovery

[noble crow]

roger, this is my first ship build

it doesn't "consume" my parts??

[marble eagle]

Hi yall!

[sharp raft]

oh yay! Congratulations to both you and @viral wolf and you did it without distracttions.. 🙂

[lean fractal]

it does when you assemble, not when you're previewing

[noble crow]

ah word

[lean fractal]

congrats to you both!

[marble eagle]

Someone in the anomaly said they would give me extra parts of their ship. Left to change ships. Hasn't returned

Oh well haha

[real laurel]

is there a difference between sentinel ships that you can find

[inland delta]

I just want to vent that my PS4 got the BLOD and now I won't be able to finish the expedition after doing every single once since the beginning. So lame

[sharp raft]

In a new save.. Mitey is goin all Captain SHARK!

[wanton fox]

Idk how it’s called in English but my vehicule can’t turn is it a bug or is it normal

[sharp raft]

you mean cannot steer left or right?

[lean fractal]

1 sentinel ship design per suitable system, many sites, class is fixed per site, supercharged slot layout can differ. there's only 1 sentinel ship type, there's no sentinel ship type sub variants, all looks

[wanton fox]

Yes

[sharp raft]

check your controls. your ship should be able to do that even if its damaged

[wanton fox]

The exonef

[real laurel]

i found one that looks nice
it's a black and green but i dont know if they're all like that

do colors change?

[wanton fox]

And even to mive foreward its lagging I talk about the exonef vagabond not my space ship

[lean fractal]

if you go sentinel ship hunting in other systems, you'll find others of different colors

@real laurel color scheme is part of ship design (in addition to 3d model), iow

[spiral rivet]

Do we all get the same number 55 on the starter Radiant Pillars?

[wheat grove]

i think its always part of the decal, even a hauler cockpit also have "55" on it

[golden shale]

from emoji to release how long was it for wp2

[marble eagle]

how do I post a screenshot?

[cedar ridge]

LOL stuff that was in my freighter refiner and disappeared MONTHS ago suddenly just reappeared!

[mossy parcel]

personally my food never came back

🤷‍♂️

300 fish disappears like || Nothing ||

[safe tendon]

For me it usually reappears if I haven't moved my freighter after a save+reload

Tho i still prefer normal planetary base refines

[plucky copper]

I almost got obliterated today trying to do that mission. I had to get my bones by tunneling everywhere. And watch the glitches when my mech's feet would show up in front of me when they should have been on ground.

[flat bay]

Can someone help me in the help channel please 😅

[wheat grove]

Anti-gravity cone rocks in gas giant

[marble eagle]

what nexus mission should I try?

[desert sun]

Okay chat what are our theories about 🦴

[tidal parrot]

i say aliens built them haha

[marble eagle]

Ive never done missions so maybe the bone one is too much

[tidal parrot]

go for the rewards you need or make you the most units/nanites etc

[restive jolt]

they are all pretty easy

[tidal parrot]

ye

[marble eagle]

Can I do more than 1 mission at a time?

[restive jolt]

no I don't think so

[marble eagle]

Ok. I joined the bone mission haha

[restive jolt]

yeah it's easy

[paper badger]

Hi everyone

I have been no man skying tonight. Was trying to get salvage data to unlock building materials lol
Trying to build a base on my gas giant I found.

those gas giants are huge af

[wheat grove]

the tornadoes can be deadly

[paper badger]

For sure lol

the one I found constantly has rocks flying everywhere.

[wheat grove]

the chaotic serenity of gas giant

[paper badger]

I love chaos so that planet fits me perfectly.

[wheat grove]

yea, i even built some bases on some gas giants

[tame sequoia]

yeah, honestly

[wheat grove]

Another jupiter but brighter

[paper badger]

Wow, absolutely stunning!

[tame sequoia]

are these gas giants in the main game or are they only in the expedition?

[wheat grove]

main game

[paper badger]

gas giants are in the game

[tame sequoia]

and can you land on them?

[paper badger]

yes

[wheat grove]

you can find one during and after stellar multitude quest

[tame sequoia]

huh, never seen them then

ah

that's why

[frail eagle]

We're boned

[wheat grove]

yea, its cuz they only spawn in purple systems

[paper badger]

you have to unlock them from the story.

[tame sequoia]

Honestly, that doesn't really make sense, but sure

[sleek quest]

Sorry I have suggestive text on

[frail eagle]

[sleek quest]

Okay, let's guess

[topaz summit]

[paper badger]

the addition of gas giants in the game really helps make the game feel a little bit like our solar system in real life.

[sleek quest]

Expedition 18: Fossils

[tame sequoia]

any idea why they don't exist in the normal solar system?

[sleek quest]

Expedition 18: Remains

[wheat grove]

bonk it

[paper badger]

Huh?

[tame sequoia]

someone mentioned that they only exist in the purple ones

[sleek quest]

So that HG didn't have to convert old worlds into giants, seeing as they also come with more moons

[tame sequoia]

oh, you thought I meant in the "normal real solar system"

[wheat grove]

just imagine, a new player sees a gas giant, they will likely explore that planet without knowing a thing

[tame sequoia]

I see

[tame sequoia]

they do that anyway

[sleek quest]

Also Gas Giants and Ocean worlds are very challenging for veteran players, and nail-bitingly hard for new players

[paper badger]

yeah I'm saying that the addition of them makes it feel like our solar system in real life. We have like 4 gas giants in our solar system.

well maybe in future, but we won't be too sure.

[sleek quest]

Its like a storm planet but with 24x7 storms

[tame sequoia]

yeah, I know, that's why I was wondering why they weren't in systems not purple

[wheat grove]

there are still spaces in existing system with less than 6 planets

[sleek quest]

3*, Neptune is an ice giant

[safe tendon]

168 Storms

[sleek quest]

Urectum may be an ice giant too

[wheat grove]

unless they expand the max amount of planet per system (which i don't think might happen, but we don't know, HG is full of surprises)

[sleek quest]

Hey Bjørn, up for another pact?

[safe tendon]

Nah, I'm good. Only pacts I make these days are signed in blood

[sleek quest]

Lmao fair

[vernal basin]

So not only did my ship land in a hole it landed in a hole within the hole

[sleek quest]

You already know what nickname you gonna get if you lose

"Sometimes, the only way to win is to not play" -Warrior Entity Sun'Tzu

[cedar ridge]

Sending living frigates on missions is how you get living ship expansion modules, right?

[sleek quest]

Yes

[safe tendon]

Once I tried to land too fast, before the terrain rendered properly and somehow I hit underground reservoir with aqua jets

Then I watched in horror as my ship phases through many layers of solid ground, dirt and stone, untill it ended In a cave

[vernal basin]

There are other ways to get them besides just that

[marble eagle]

how do I dig the bones up? My terrain manipulator doesnt work on this ground?

[paper badger]

I've had my ships clip into space stations before nearly killing me.

[sleek quest]

That and pulsing inside a living ship

[sleek quest]

That's a terraria easter egg

[warm carbon]

new update wednesday

what is it?

[cedar ridge]

I actually flew inside my freighter hanger bay once, banged around until I could get out

[paper badger]

darn lol

[sleek quest]

I just died lmao, went inside a derelict

[warm carbon]

i hope its not a expidition

[sleek quest]

It is

[cedar ridge]

So pulsing around in a living ship might get me an anomaly that gives living ship fragments

[warm carbon]

give us base attacks from pirates

[sleek quest]

Expedition 18: Fetch

[vernal basin]

You can craft then as well I'm certian

[warm carbon]

or are base attacks by pirates already in game?
i know they attack settlements

[sleek quest]

Yes

Pirate attacks serve as like a marker that there is a settlement nearby while you are on foot

This exped is gonna introduce a feature to be added in Fire no Light

[vernal basin]

I've had pirates attack almost every planetary building, specially in a pirate controlled system

[sleek quest]

Settlement can also include houses, trading posts, observatories, trans towers, etc

[vernal basin]

true

[cedar ridge]

I have not seen that

[tulip oar]

meow meow

[sleek quest]

This new exped is gonna have something to do with the relic worlds

[tulip oar]

oooh

[sleek quest]

Hiii Arty

[tulip oar]

hiiiii

[vernal basin]

Yeah you should get the blueprint when you finish the questline

[sleek quest]

Arty Prime*

[mossy parcel]

🔫 Psh Psh

[halcyon tide]

hi (1)

[tulip oar]

hi soap ca

how are you

[halcyon tide]

i've written about 60 lines of code while in a vc

[sleek quest]

You poor soul

[halcyon tide]

implementing nmslc into the app rn

[sleek quest]

||did he figure it out? How long did it take him?||

[halcyon tide]

all the inputs are done, just need to add a "locate" button and outputs

[halcyon tide]

did who figure what out

[sleek quest]

Whatcha codin?

[halcyon tide]

this is nms-related

the "help" stuff is just a palceholder

[sleek quest]

Eh its something we talked about 3 days ago, Arty said her friend recently got into nms but couldn't figure out teleporters

[halcyon tide]

ah

[sleek quest]

Palceholder

[halcyon tide]

I initially thought you were talking about how her and bonkers like to mess with me

placeholder

anyway today I made all the layline stuff and the help part

[sleek quest]

Ah so you figured it out

[safe tendon]

Who doesn't tbh

[vernal basin]

leyline not layline

[sleek quest]

Leylaps

[halcyon tide]

it is layline

ik what i'm doing

[sleek quest]

Its a coding thing ig

[halcyon tide]

jorb it is layline right?

[sleek quest]

Or are you talking about portals?

[halcyon tide]

not portals

[vernal basin]

it's 100% leyline

[halcyon tide]

3-star deposits

it's a different thing

[sleek quest]

Oh those are ............those are called layline?

[halcyon tide]

portals = leyline
mould and stuff = layline

[vernal basin]

oh

[cedar ridge]

I did the quest, I still have recipies for the parts you combine during the mission, but not for the eggs to add modules and increase inventory.

[vernal basin]

I was meaning portals

[halcyon tide]

and I wasn't

[vernal basin]

my bad

I apologize

[halcyon tide]

hint:

that's not a portal :P

[vernal basin]

yeah no idea what that is

[halcyon tide]

you know when you get runaway mould

that's the icon for deposits like that

[vernal basin]

yeah the uber rare items

venom sacs and whatnot

[safe tendon]

It might actually be Leyline

[halcyon tide]

wait what

have you been lying to me

this whole time

[sleek quest]

Ewww why would you want venom's sacs?

[safe tendon]

I wasn't lying, I might be a bit dyslexic

[halcyon tide]

oh

wait do you have that image thingy that explains it

the super big one

with a lot of text

[sleek quest]

His Djøme?

[safe tendon]

I do

[halcyon tide]

omfg

[vernal basin]

you are right:

I googled it

[sleek quest]

Soups not getting gaslit today

Today is Soup's Day

[halcyon tide]

I'm gonna have to change the github page, python scripts, png images, youtube video, RE-EDIT THE YOUTUBE VIDEO

[sleek quest]

This cat eats pythons

[halcyon tide]

jorb fuckin
gaslit me by accident 😭

[safe tendon]

[halcyon tide]

welp

[safe tendon]

[halcyon tide]

time to get to work

you're gonna have to make a new build

[sleek quest]

Bjømmy having some fun

[halcyon tide]

you know what

they're called that now

[willow tendon]

i need help ive been buying planetary charts and all i get is crashed ships but cant get them

[halcyon tide]

we're coining the term

[safe tendon]

I would rather you not forward or send links to your pics in #nms-photomode-gallery

It can be taken as promoting it and it will be disqualified from getting to #the-louvre

Repost is cool though

[halcyon tide]

LOOK AT THIS #nms-questions message

[sleek quest]

Is there an NPC around the ship?

[willow tendon]

yeah

[safe tendon]

[sleek quest]

There are 5 types of distress signals, 2 of them crashed ships

[halcyon tide]

we're just gonna call them that now
bjorn made a new word

[sleek quest]

Before landing, check if the ship has an NPC or not, ships with NPC cannot be claimed

[halcyon tide]

problemo solved

[safe tendon]

I'm fine with that, language evolves as it is used

[vernal basin]

well I still feel bad for even instigating that @halcyon tide

[sleek quest]

@willow tendon

[willow tendon]

ooooh okay

[vagrant beacon]

oh sorry i just figured it was better to do that than risk spamming it in multiple channels with an actual post. But it will not happen again and i can delete if youd like

[halcyon tide]

it's fine now
we made a new word because of you 😅

[vernal basin]

hehe

[sleek quest]

Yes because skibdi gyatt rizzler fanum tax is an evolution of the english language.

I HATED every moment I typed that

[vagrant beacon]

i just like to show off my pictures xD i dont really care too much if i get it in louvre

[halcyon tide]

then post the image itself

[willow tendon]

Thank you for the info what a shame because ive encoutered many beautifull ships

[halcyon tide]

whoa

i did not know it would do that

[vernal basin]

lul

[safe tendon]

Yeah remove it from here and all will be good

It's fine to post a picture in #nms-photomode-gallery and then repost it somewhere else if you are particularly proud of it

[sleek quest]

No links allowed

[halcyon tide]

I just deleted it fast

[vernal basin]

naughty naughty hehehe

😂

[safe tendon]

I mean as long as it doesn't go to a bunch if channels at once

[halcyon tide]

WAIT WHAT

EDCM

is a mod

[safe tendon]

That would be actual spam

[sleek quest]

Yes

Since forever

[halcyon tide]

@wheat grove since when were you a mod?

[vagrant beacon]

okay i understand now. Sorry again i didnt even think of it being viewed as self promotion

[halcyon tide]

we need answers

that's really the only response im gonna get?

[vernal basin]

does being a top mod of the server give you the ability to talk to the devs?

[sleek quest]

There are no devs here

[halcyon tide]

well

there could be

[vernal basin]

no I mean like via zoom or whatnot lol

[halcyon tide]

but the server is completely ran by the community

[vernal basin]

its the main community run discord though

like the main one for the game

[halcyon tide]

yeah

but it's not connected to HG

like they have no say in anything the server does

[sleek quest]

Officially

There might be some PR intern lurking in here

[spiral rivet]

devs have been known to peek on this discord but they don't make themselves known and dont run it in any way

[halcyon tide]

maybe 👀

[halcyon tide]

[halcyon tide]

i remember there was one time when they posted about the server having 100k members

[sleek quest]

Gleam might be the community manager of HG lol

[plucky copper]

I only speak English. What language is this?

[halcyon tide]

it is quite complicated

[safe tendon]

The most powerful of them all, math

[halcyon tide]

I don't completely understand it, but just enough to make the program lol

[dusk sluice]

🦴

[halcyon tide]

bone

[sleek quest]

Afterall, everything in your screen is 1s and 0s

[halcyon tide]

use it to make broth
broth for SOUP

[sleek quest]

Maths is the primordial language

[spiral rivet]

Its entirely possible that a high ranker is a dev, but if they are, they have been top secret about it, and also I doubt Gleam is a possibility because he left this server completely for a bout a year a while back over some mod disagreements and also wasn't a mod for the first 4 ish years of this server's life

[dusk sluice]

HAIL SOUP

[halcyon tide]

everything on your screen is actually values ranging from 0-255

because

pixel

[dusk sluice]

Maths is too hard to understand

[sleek quest]

That's a non-binary screen

[halcyon tide]

wouldnt it be
"math is"
or "maths are"

[sleek quest]

If you focus on the dumb stuff like imaginary numbers

[dusk sluice]

oh
maths stands for mathematics
So you’d say mathematics is

[halcyon tide]

ah

i didnt know that

but doesnt math mean that too

just shorter

[sleek quest]

i=√-1 because screw you

[dusk sluice]

NOOO

[halcyon tide]

math.sqrt(-1)```

[dusk sluice]

I’m getting PTSD to learning square roots

[halcyon tide]

those are the least of your worries

[sleek quest]

What's that? You cannot root negative numbers? Well this is imaginary number

It doesn't exist

[dusk sluice]

What kind of psychopath made letters in math

[sleek quest]

THEN WHY TF ARE WE LEARNING ABOUT IT

[halcyon tide]

back on topic

I see you dreadnought
Hiding in the sky

[halcyon tide]

hiding in the sky

💀

[dusk sluice]

Sigma being one of them

[vernal basin]

I want more different designs for the dreadnought hahaha

[dusk sluice]

Dude I can’t say sigma in mathematics without thinking of brain rot

[vernal basin]

ohhh never happy I am

[spiral rivet]

Who else here takes over an Archive to set up their first base in a file?

[halcyon tide]

I did that in my PD save

[dusk sluice]

Capitol of the galactic hub :D

[halcyon tide]

then dont say it
just say "standard deviation" or "sum"

[sleek quest]

I just use edgy E

[halcyon tide]

lol

[dusk sluice]

30 billion dollar rover videos be like

[sleek quest]

Alpha: Me
Beta: Tate
Gamma: Hulk
Delta: Triangle
Sigma: Edgy E

[plucky copper]

My original thought, then I thought science and then Greek. 🤣

[dusk sluice]

I wish the planets in our solar system weren’t sad rocks or sad gas balls

[halcyon tide]

how is gamma hulk
Γ γ

[spiral rivet]

He powered by gamma rays

iirc

[halcyon tide]

oh

[dusk sluice]

BJØRN

YOUVE GIVEN ME AN IDEA

it's a jellyfish

[spiral rivet]

Its obviously a dog

[vernal basin]

my partner and I were fishing and she threw one back into the ocean and then helios was like suprise mutherFcer!

scared the hell out of me

I like when you finish the purge and it zooms out and gets all dark

[dusk sluice]

SPOILERS

[vernal basin]

always thought that there should be dangerous giant creatures in space

[vernal basin]

sorry my brain thinks of it as a 9 year old game

spoilers to me is after that with the new autophage stuff

[dusk sluice]

SPOILERS AGAIN

[vernal basin]

hissss

I'm being vauge

[marble eagle]

I couldn't figure out the bone mission so left it. oh well

[vernal basin]

bone mission?

[marble eagle]

The weekend nexus mission

[vernal basin]

oh

I don't do nexus missions so that would explain it

[dusk sluice]

More images of nearby star regions

[halcyon tide]

very

g r e y

[vernal basin]

very cool pics

[dusk sluice]

Oh theyre just unedited

Usually I go and add color to these photos and make them more realistic

[dusk sluice]

Usually with NMS features and phone filters mixed

[vernal basin]

Thats what they do with hubble space telescope pics as well.

[bleak thunder]

most pictures of no man's sky you see online are colourized with data from the various instruments aboard the telescope. if you were actually playing the game it would look like this.

[lament spade]

Can you give Laylaps a new name?

[halcyon tide]

no

[vernal basin]

laylaps is good boy

[halcyon tide]

yeah but it's kind of jarring to see a grey sky in the game

[plucky copper]

And he never lays in my lap.

[halcyon tide]

since they're usually blue or smth

or piss yellow 💀

[dusk sluice]

There we go

Nice and colorful

Click on the image and all the stars will show up

[random arrow]

blame the gek for piss yellow

[dusk sluice]

The atlas took a wiz on some planets

If You gotta go you gotta go

[vernal basin]

I literally said that before lol

😆

[random arrow]

that's vanilla?

I have never seen the background that color

[bleak thunder]

whoops sorry

[random arrow]

It's always super deep one color

[vernal basin]

hehe you are ok you explained it better anway

[dusk sluice]

Another colored one

Oh I found a nebula

That blue cloud thing

[marble eagle]

Great p ics!

[halcyon tide]

p ics

[marble eagle]

*pics

[halcyon tide]

i'll do you one better

[dusk sluice]

oh ew

why’d it do that

[halcyon tide]

compression

[dusk sluice]

That’s awesome

Tinker around with filters

[plucky copper]

You need nyan cat in that pic.

[dusk sluice]

You can make it look like a Hubble pic

[halcyon tide]

i dont think that one had a filter

[dusk sluice]

With enough effort and time

[dusk sluice]

Sea angel nebula
Your pic but altered

[halcyon tide]

ooh

[rocky epoch]

Hey, a question out of the blue: so they salt a seed with hash to get a string of consistent length and then feed the result to PRNG Engine, that then gets interpreted by every game client?..

[halcyon tide]

that looks cool

what

is that about the ProcGen?

[misty pawn]

uhh

[rocky epoch]

Yes

[misty pawn]

Art3mis sounds

meow meow

h

hi

and stuff

[vernal basin]

I actually understood that sentence lol

[halcyon tide]

I can tell you that every client gets the same seen which results in the same planest and stuff

[dusk sluice]

Hi friend-entity art3mis

[vernal basin]

I'm impressed with myself

[halcyon tide]

hi (2)

[dusk sluice]

You wanna see pretty space pictures?

[rocky epoch]

Uh hi, yeah, that was a load, sorry

[rocky epoch]

You're breathtaking

[vernal basin]

hehe

[rocky epoch]

Always

[vernal basin]

only cause I did a course in Cybesec haha, but thats off topic

[rocky epoch]

I know there's a way to reverse-engineer PRNG, but they do hash it, and hash functions are irreversible

[vernal basin]

yeppers.

[minor jungle]

I AM ALIVE!!!!!!!!
Good Morning all Friend-Entities and Void-Spawns, May the Shadows Preserve you and may the Void keep your rest eternal in her embrace

[vernal basin]

hehe I hate changing channels when having a good convo, but rules are rules lol

[rocky epoch]

the fact that every game client gets the same seed doesn't mean much, because they use nanoflann to figure these out based on coordinates, so doesn't do much good too

[dusk sluice]

Two altered images of the Euclid Galactic core

Very bright dot in the middle

[rocky epoch]

I mean, it is related to seed generation in NMS, what gives? 🙂

[vernal basin]

No I wanted to talk about the actual encryption side of it lul

what you are talking about is fine

[chrome yoke]

it seems i have unlocked the color purple. World's Part II is pretty neat 👍

[vernal basin]

yeppers

I got it a few days ago as well

[rocky epoch]

I actually want to get a specific ship, and then I'd probably uninstall 😄

[vernal basin]

haha lol

[chrome yoke]

that was quite the questline to unlock purple, took forever

[minor jungle]

GUNTER! LAYLAPS DROP THEM FIRE BEATS

[chrome yoke]

so from what i hear now that i have the purple hyperdrive, i don't need the others anymore? that the purple is basically an all access key? or is that incorrect

[dawn coral]

lets gooo

[vernal basin]

thats how blue works so I assume purple works the same

same with atlas pass

[minor jungle]

I think the Altantid Drive only goes to Purple Systems

[vernal basin]

Yeah thats why I kept both just to be safe

I should test it though

[chrome yoke]

wait what? i didn't know the indium one did that too! i've been wasting valuable upgrade space all this time

[minor jungle]

cuz i think one that one photo Bjørn post oh his Starborn Pheonix, he has all the drives still

[dusk sluice]

S.S. TELESCOPE

[chrome yoke]

ok since y'all aren't sure imma test it myself

[vernal basin]

I'm just testing now

[minor jungle]

This was Bjørn's star born

see in the bottom left he has all them drives

[chrome yoke]

just uninstalled all other drives, i can in fact still warp to everything with just the purple

[vernal basin]

beat me by 5 seconds lol

[minor jungle]

i mean unless your planning to have multiple weapons you dont need to worry about space

[dusk sluice]

Very old image of a ringed planet

[minor jungle]

and i personally only use 1 weapon

[halcyon tide]

yeah there's like a sort of hierarchy
all drives can also go the the "lower class" ones

although having all of them gives a small range boost

[dusk sluice]

Lower classes are like Emeril drive

[chrome yoke]

PURPLE IS THE SUPREME GOD

[halcyon tide]

i mean they can travel to the ones below them

[vernal basin]

same also applies on the freighter as well

[chrome yoke]

IT CAN DO EVERYTHING

[minor jungle]

This is true #VoidMother #PurpleVoid

[halcyon tide]

like how emeril can also go to red

[plucky copper]

But those other drives do add 50 ly to your range, right? That's why I keep them.

[halcyon tide]

i think it's 80 or something

not very big

[dusk sluice]

Freighter warps are superior

[halcyon tide]

yeah

[dusk sluice]

You can go like 1000-3000 ly with freighters I think

GRU IS TYPING

[compact musk]

Anyone know how many favorites you can keep in your transporter list?

[dusk sluice]

We need more spaces for personal wonders

[minor jungle]

i think 70 for most recent stations, and 50 for favorites?

[willow tendon]

aint no way i got machi stellar 5 times in a row

[vernal basin]

thats a crazy amount I have like 5 saved

but hey everyone plays differently

[safe tendon]

No, it still is my starborn phoenix :v

But the pic is a bit old:

• I don't have the Atlantid Drive on the picture
• One launch thrusters modules is misplaced

[minor jungle]

Ah :3

but its still good to have all the drives no?

[compact musk]

the more you have, the easier it is to mission stack :p

[real laurel]

would an exotic ship be better than the wraith

[vernal basin]

I finished the campaign and purple with just that many

[minor jungle]

So Exotics do have higher shields and handling over Living ships

[compact musk]

grats.

[real laurel]

yeah i just dont know where to farm them

[vernal basin]

Yeah sorry didn't mean to be a D just being defensive.

[minor jungle]

Exotics spawn better is systems with a rich economy

just get the eco scanner on your ship

and find a 3 star system

should say
Advanced
Affluent
Booming
Flourishing
High Supply
Opulent
Prosperous
Wealthy

[bright plank]

Just casually have the heart of the sun in my pocket

[real laurel]

does the living ship already have something for the economy scanner?

i use the wraith

[minor jungle]

there is a living version call "Wormhole Brain"

[halcyon tide]

I hate how they don't mention the Explorer's buffs

[steep quarry]

ah those are the level 3 labels, thanks

[halcyon tide]

iirc it was with the hyperdrive

[tame sequoia]

Huh, interesting to note but this does not equal 100%

[real laurel]

So i should find a 3 star wealthy economy?

[sharp raft]

not everyone votes, Dave.

[minor jungle]

They give the best odds for finding Exotic ships

[real laurel]

i found one with 3 stars and advanced materials and wealthy

[minor jungle]

that should be good

[real laurel]

so i just refresh at the space station over and over right?

[minor jungle]

i dont think you need to refresh

just chill around

[plucky copper]

Also, that other 10% could have been out on their own expeditions too.

[minor jungle]

the ships should fly in

you can also check the trade outposts on the nearby planets

[tame sequoia]

I mean, every other one was 100%

[plucky copper]

I have had only 1 S ship fly in (unless one did while I was running around not paying attention) and it was a crappy one I didn't want.

[sharp raft]

thats when citizens felt they should vote and were not afraid of you I guess.

Start being benevolent then Dave! heheh

[plucky copper]

I like the citizens who are trying to flee come into your office and yet can't use the teleporter to easily get away.

[sharp raft]

where they gonna go? they live there heh

[spiral rivet]

This is such a huge improvement over old space station exteriors

[bright plank]

System discovered nine years ago by shadowassassin09, damn, beaten by a 7 year old

8 years of giant space pokeballs was a little much lol

hey i found an exotic already

please define "already"

Still no one even knew they were for the giant pokemon.......

[tame sequoia]

the real question is how the heck aliens leave if you buy their ship

[real laurel]

it looks like a V is it any good?

[spiral rivet]

Yup. We were the pokemon. Got sucked right in through the center opening

[minor jungle]

personal apperance is up to you, all exotics will have the same stats once maxed. only 2 exotics i think the Squid and the royal

[plucky copper]

They could hitchhike the galaxy. And then write a guide about it.

[steep quarry]

kinda speaking of settlements, I've been slowly improving mine and now happiness is max, production is near max, and expenses are low enough to produce a bunch of items, but my population is around 50, therefore I'm ranked as A, have you found anything to help increase population easier not by random chance?

[real laurel]

it kinda looks like a penguins beak

[minor jungle]

that wold be a royal

kinda looks like this

[plucky copper]

I think I saw way up in here that someone said that is as high as it goes, but I could very well be mistaken.

[tame sequoia]

I have no idea

I've yet to see how it could increase at all

[tame sequoia]

I got 59 currently, but I think that's what my settlement started with

[tame sequoia]

I just decided to look it up, I found this on reddit and it makes sense

[steep quarry]

I swear I've seen people with S ranked settlements

[steep quarry]

I have 50, started with like 40 or so, I did increase initially but haven't got much increase since, except visitor events sometimes

[tame sequoia]

there are S rank settlements as far as I've heard

[steep quarry]

ah fair

[plucky copper]

Like I said, I only was going what I thought I remember reading.

[steep quarry]

fair enough, one day I suppose lol

[spiral rivet]

ugh... the refiners still delete their contents? I thought that was handled by now...

[halcyon tide]

isn't that just for the freighter ones?

[spiral rivet]

Nah this ones the portable and on the ground

hasn't been moved, all the chromatic vanished from it

[steep quarry]

did you teleport? that's often the culprit

or did you quit the game? and/or switch to multiplayer group?

[spiral rivet]

But also I hardly care which set of refiners it is, that is a HUGE bug that affects every player in a significant and negative way, its been five years. It's really not ok

[steep quarry]

those were often reasons why I lost items, but restore points saved it

[spiral rivet]

I havent teleported in this save at all yet, but I think I flew away in the ship

[steep quarry]

I'm usually really careful about anything refiner based, sometimes I just afk (safely) near one until it's done just so I don't lose items

I do understand the frustration, I lost over a stack of chromatic metal that way

[spiral rivet]

Again, I am upset that a 9 year old game has a bug like that after like 20 other major updates since that bug came up. Its not minor or rare its a pretty severe bug

[steep quarry]

maybe it's just not known to Hello Games? or people reporting it mention how you can work around it & be careful so it's not as impacting as it actually can be?

[spiral rivet]

I can't imagine HG doesn't know about it. Literally everyone knows about it

[halcyon tide]

oh no
it's midnight

[spiral rivet]

And "technically it can be avoided by standing next to the refiner and NOT playing the game" is definitely NOT a valid fix

LIES lol

Are you a Colorado fella?

[halcyon tide]

nah

does the maple leaf say USA to you??

[spiral rivet]

According Trump.... Yes

[halcyon tide]

shut up

[spiral rivet]

lol I can't believe this guy

[halcyon tide]

no politics

shush

[spiral rivet]

"Hey, massive soverei9gn nation, sell yourself to us"

like lol what

[halcyon tide]

s h u s h

[spiral rivet]

but yeah, no more of that

We'll resume warping to the station to buy chroma because who the hell gonna mine another copper vein for 10 min

[steep quarry]

fair

[half wave]

What's going on here

[steep quarry]

it's what works for me cause then I can multi task in a different tab lol

[spiral rivet]

Mostly me compaining about the refiner bug still existing

[halcyon tide]

nothing

[spiral rivet]

Even for HG I am a bit stunned to come back after years away from NMS and the refiners still delete my stuff. Ridiculous

[warped fox]

whats up with refiners?

[half wave]

Good. On topic. I like that. Let's abstain from inflammatory commentary referencing any political figures which is not on topic

[half wave]

[halcyon tide]

hey i tried to make them stop

[steep quarry]

if you teleport or exit the game, the stuff refining is deleted sometimes

[warped fox]

ohh

okay

i though u guys were talking about

wait

[spiral rivet]

I think the freighter ones are safe for no apparent reason

[warped fox]

let me reread rules rq

[halcyon tide]

i thought it was the other way around

freighter ones delete and others dont

[spiral rivet]

Yeah politics is a big off-limits even for jokes and absurdity,
