[rough dagger]

so i have to wait another week for my new one

[desert fiber]

what is this...

[rough dagger]

i just want to build a corvette 😭

[rough dagger]

thats a frigate, probably a trade specialist

[rough relic]

combat frigate?

[desert fiber]

i dont think ive ever seen one like this

[rough dagger]

i havent seen normal combat frigates, only the pirate raiders

[desert fiber]

my game crashed as soon as i took that screenshot :(

[severe quiver]

only on the base model? not the OLED ones ?

[desert fiber]

alt tabs ugh

[rough dagger]

yes i got a base model

and yes it is the only model with the sale

[rough relic]

actually @rough dagger is right, its a trade frigate my bad

[desert fiber]

ah i dint oay much mind to frigates

[severe quiver]

too bad, I just got a bonus from work, I have money to spend 😉 but not on an 256GB mdel

[desert fiber]

unless they are the ghost ones or alive ones

is it not these that find portals?

[rough dagger]

you need to find a monolith and then use that to find a portal

[desert fiber]

tyyy

going back to my first system!!

[rough dagger]

also update: i can play on my steamdeck lets fuckin goooooo

[desert fiber]

how do you use the monoliths to find portals?

[rough dagger]

land at it, it will give you insructions, then describe a senerio

[naive mist]

Monoliths and plaques. Im not sure about portals

[rough dagger]

follow the instructions in the senerio and then you can pay a relic to find a portal

[naive mist]

!faq-portal

[desert fiber]

odd mine just give autophage rep

[lime haven]

-# to view info below, enable embeds

Locating a Portal

1. Obtain the race relic item to give to a Monolith, [see this post](#nms-questions message);
2. Locate a Monolith, [see this post](#nms-questions message);
3. Interact with the same Monolith twice to locate Portal, [see this post](#nms-questions message).

📚 Notes:

• Portals don't have to be unlocked via any quest.
• To fully use the portal network, the player must unlock all 16 portal glyphs and purple star systems.
  • Run !faq-portalglyphs and !faq-purplesystems in #bot-spam to learn more.
• A portal is not the same as a teleporter. (see image )
• For planets in uncharted systems, obtain the glyph address of that planet via photomode, and portal to it from another system.

[rough dagger]

did you interact with the adlantium thing?

[desert fiber]

yes

do i not feed that first?

[rough dagger]

yea dont do that

[desert fiber]

ahh oki oki ty

i thought it was needed to awaken it

[rough dagger]

find a new one and go to the "center"

[rough dagger]

na thats a different thing

[paper root]

I have a capitol freighter that’s what it is lol couldn’t remember which one it was

[midnight shell]

\

[desert fiber]

i feel.... safe

[west robin]

Aaaah, you sumbitch tornado. Scanning an A Tier deposit and got snatched off the ground.

[snow plume]

are there appearance customization pieces that look like Null other than his head? Like can i get the body too?

[west robin]

...and it's copper again.. maybe the tornado was trying to warn me.

[broken basin]

nop

[desert fiber]

dont think so for the body

[snow plume]

also how do i check my level

[rough dagger]

oh my god
my steamdeck
its beautiful

[snow plume]

i hope they add it

[west robin]

If anyone finds themselves on a little rad-ball called Pandora's Weather Forecast, the name is a warning.

[snow plume]

what about apollo’s body?

[broken basin]

just standard and autophage i believe

even the bugs dont have torso or legs

[errant dirge]

does anyone have an issu in the space station with a enormous platform? its in every SP i visit.

[snow plume]

bugs?

[broken basin]

there's a chitlin set from an expedition or quicksilver guy, cant remember which

but its just head gloves and boots

[snow plume]

head for which race?

[broken basin]

anomaly? (traveller? the standard space suit one people start with)

[narrow juniper]

are abandoned space stations rare? Just found 1

[kindred spade]

Accidentally stole a fellow who I didn't realize was in my corvette 😂. I turned around and saw them standing there

[dark hawk]

you know what i don’t like about the tornadoes

why do the outside rocks spin faster than the inside rocks

[viscid chasm]

Hey guys, quick question: whenever you rebuild your Corvette (like adding a new engine or swapping the cockpit), does all the stuff you placed inside just get wiped and disappear? Or is that just happening to me

[broken basin]

the stuff inside gets deleted

the stuff gets refunded

usually

like if you built a comms console you'll get the parts back for it when you delete the hab

[kindred spade]

My colors keep not staying on for mine

[dark hawk]

not everything though

and if this is a bad bug that keeps occurring

try installing the base building beyond mod which overrides the deletion

it’s not a great fix but it’s a fix

[broken basin]

we rly should be able to display fish in the aquarium

[desert fiber]

first discovered system has a pretty paradise planet in it if you like red

11 years later and i still remember it the exact same

[viscid chasm]

So does the interior always get wiped even if you just swap something small, like an engine? Happened to me too and I lost an hour of decorating… do I really have to redo it every time? That’s so dumb.”:/

[nova garden]

Probably an unintended bug but it seems to happen for me whenever I change parts attached to the hab units where I've added interior

Sometimes things will show back up later but most of the time I just re-add the interior

[west robin]

Actually pretty sensible. Tornado and hurricanes are naturally less hostile the closer one gets to the middle— hence where the term "Eye Of The Storm" comes from.

The problem is usually never that it's blowing, but what.

[rough dagger]

uh conservation of momentum?

wait no thats the other way around

shit

[west robin]

Just glad they can't pick up debris and starships.. I'd hate to get splattered by my own friggin pelican.

[keen ginkgo]

If the station is abandoned, the entire system is, and I'd say theyre relatively rare

[west robin]

It's always friggin trippy finding an abandoned system.

[keen ginkgo]

No, youd sorta right

[west robin]

..does the wealth of a system have any affect on the derelict freighter tech module quality?

[rough dagger]

no things should move faster the smaller the "orbit" is

[desert fiber]

how do i get the sentinel frieghter to spawn? do i need a planet with sentinals cause the space station kind of just led to me destroying 50 sentinels

[rough dagger]

which means rocks closer to the center should be faster no?

[keen ginkgo]

Rotating yes, tangentially, no

[sage valve]

shooting at the space station is kinda buggy sometimes. blow up a trader ship or something and go from there

[rough dagger]

ah i see i see

[desert fiber]

thanks 😼

[dark hawk]

ok but i have a counterargument

[west robin]

Eh?

[dark hawk]

shit i was gonna post a video but i can’t find it

[keen ginkgo]

If its not a nms video its probably gotta be in a different channel

[dark hawk]

even with a constant windspeed the circumference that the debris needs to travel is larger

so it would “orbit” around the tornado slower

but the windspeed tapers off the further you get from the central vortex

in NMS the debris around tornadoes orbits faster the farther out it is

because it just rotates the entire asset

[keen ginkgo]

Simulation shortcuts

Gameplay and all that

[west robin]

That's true. Dependent on the radial circumference of the cone shape, things would spin either faster or slower dependent on the distance from the center. It could be that these are wind columns tbst don't quite reach the stratosphere and so they don't behave exactly as one would expect.

[dark hawk]

well they aren’t tornadoes, they’re more like dust devils

[west robin]

Ye

[dark hawk]

but besides that distinction

the dynamics still work out the same

any rotating column of a fluid is like this

slower outside, faster inside

[west robin]

'Swhat makes the ocean so deadly.

[dark hawk]

no but alright

i feel like zach talking to mike

[ember solstice]

Just shoot the space station 1 single time to fight normal sentinal waves to get the big sentinal ship to spawn. If you shoot it too many times (which is VERY easy to do) then you summon an infinite wave

[desert fiber]

ah

got it thanks

is theres something actually too these?

cargo pods or anything

or is it just a freighter skeleton

[dark hawk]

although tornado debris behaves differently than, say, a gravitational orbit because the windspeed reduces rather linearly while moving away from the core

[keen ginkgo]

Sometimes spawn cargo pods with them

[dark hawk]

instead of exponentially

[desert fiber]

mm ty dragon

[proud osprey]

you can’t loot the inside

just cargo pods

[keen ginkgo]

Shooting them tends to draw the attention of pirates

[west robin]

Currents and all that, I mean. Like turbulence in the air. Whirlpool are more dangerous towards the center for obvious reasons as opposed to tornadoes because water carries significantly more density than oxygen. Underwater currents are somewhat the same in that regard. It's easy to get ripped up and carried someplace else entirely in the ocean, and not having the right equipment can be fatal.

[dark hawk]

yes but this is getting quite off the rails

[west robin]

Very true, apollo-cheese.

[keen ginkgo]

My corvette almost made a whirlpool when spawning the teleport pad

[west robin]

I can never get the sky diving to work right unless I'm in space.

[modest falcon]

hey, I’m pretty new to nms also a trophy hunter does anyone know if my buddy in custom mode who can drop me a s rank reactor will disable my ability to unlock achievements?

[rough dagger]

are u in permadeath

[modest falcon]

normal

[rough dagger]

u good

you'll still be able to get them

[modest falcon]

ahh thanks

[west robin]

I got Stranger In A Strange Land 😎

[modest falcon]

My only problem now is finding a storage bin lol

[west robin]

Should probably see if I could make a request for a few other achievements because I've completed them but done so when offline and unable to get achievements, so I have them, but don't have them.

[runic pumice]

gek is cooking.

[west robin]

there's a spider shaped like a rock on this planet running from me and I can't scan it.

[slate python]

Chase it

[wet parcel]

Whats the best exocraft

[primal tinsel]

I think it's up to personal preference.

I personally don't even use mine.

[nova garden]

They're all bad

Except for specific uses

[last furnace]

Time to conquer the Euclid again ;P

G150 is fun, but we want the first mwaha

[primal tinsel]

Conquer how?

[last furnace]

Steal all the Nip of the Universe

Huehehahahah!

[primal tinsel]

clicks his beak in annoyance

[last furnace]

Ahaha

[primal tinsel]

No one steals my nipnip.

[last furnace]

Too late!

[turbid pendant]

i’m a couple days new anyone down to play?

[last furnace]

Also just bouncing around the Euclid Galaxy with my corvette and crew, jumping between a few systems per region, claiming, and then warping to another side of the Galaxy!

[timber haven]

Only ones I've really used is the hovering one and the sub.

[last furnace]

#nms-lfg-or-trades is a great place for you! I'd personally recommend #1418605454300549120 too ;P

[turbid pendant]

bet thanks bro

[last furnace]

Many miss the fact that there has been a HUGE NMS Multiplayer Civilisation (Community/clan/guild...etc) presence for many years with many active players that work hard to provide events, new Gameplay, endgame, and great meet ups for some awesome builds in this game! We do a lot of cross-civ stuff!

But anyway, #1418605454300549120 is the best place to start your journey into the bigger multiplayer experience!

[desert fiber]

mmm murder

[last furnace]

Anytime 🫡

[desert fiber]

side note totally unrelated the gek hate me now !

[nova garden]

So apparently you can shoot your own storage containers in your corvette

Which alerts sentinels

[last furnace]

You can board other players corvettes, destroy their containers, in exchange for loot (not their personal loot, but it gives you resources)

Essentially NMS has introduced a viable space pirate mechanic

[nova garden]

Thankfully the storage containers are like ender chests so when they're destroyed the inventories still exist

[last furnace]

Which may also encourage others to travel together as a crew, or multiplayer fleet

Indeed! No personal items are lost, but it's a fun new thing!

[west robin]

Is there an ethical limit to growing nipnip?

[narrow juniper]

No

[west robin]

Like, is there a certain amount where you just go "okay, that's probably enough."

my current growhouse makes like six million.

Not plants, units.. good lord, 6m plants..

[desert fiber]

nah

theres worse than nipnip yk

[gleaming mauve]

Just discovered a planet with ruins and bipedal flowerdogs

[desert fiber]

hi toaster

pretty flowers

[gleaming mauve]

Henlo

[runic pumice]

holy crap.. this was worth it.

[desert fiber]

WHAT

I HAVE LIKE 40 OF THOSE

i have a bunch of food people gave me in the anomaly 😭

[runic pumice]

nip nip moonpies are serious bank.

doubled my haul

[pine steppe]

Parasitic Worm Cake.

[broken basin]

they give u big scan bonus for plants

4000% or so

[pine steppe]

I probably wouldn’t want to eat one in real life

[icy rivet]

Kachow

[desert fiber]

i'll try anything that isnt seafood

despite me being japanese i somehow have a allergen to seafood 😭

[icy rivet]

Huh, I've never seen one of these encampments before. I assume Relics?

[hexed junco]

So I've heard that for frighter mods you get guaranteed S class for destroying pirate dreadnought but I can't seem to get them neither when I destroy the ship nor when I accept thier surrender. What I'm doing wrong? ><

[desert fiber]

fossil(?) sites

[desert fiber]

destroying engines will lessen your chance

you need to have enough damage to remove the shields and fuel rods and burst it from there

your best bet is killing innocent freighters though

[sleek dirge]

Hmmm

Good to know

[hexed junco]

Oh, thanks

[west robin]

..why is there no fusion/nuclear power for bases?

[sleek dirge]

I love the effect when I switch my pulse engines on

[desert fiber]

theres not much nuclear related stuff in this game now that i think of it

[sleek dirge]

Its like all the stars streaking past as I go fast

[west robin]

I can understand the hazard it would impose, sure, but one of my bases/homes is on a literal extreme radiation planet. Got radioactive fog, radioactive storms, radioactive tornado, and extreme night radiation.. I don't think a little more would hurt anything.

[sleek dirge]

Dude's got the glow planet

[west robin]

c'mon down to pandora's weather forecast! We got radiation, radiation, radiation, and that's about it.

[sleek dirge]

What about Acid rain?

Or intense solar storms

[west robin]

No acid rain, surprisingly. It's an environmentally sound radioactive planet, I guess.

[sleek dirge]

Neato

So it's got Uranium, right?

[desert fiber]

i wouldnt mind a nuclear update tbh

maybe then it could add the additions of bombing

some nuclear power weaponry etc wouldnt be too bad

[west robin]

Especially because space is already filled with the variety of radiations already anyways.

[keen ginkgo]

Tbf acid rain would be toxic planets

[keen ginkgo]

Update that makes spacewalking drain every hazard protection at once

[west robin]

What even is space walking for? It's fun, don't get me wrong, but why?

[naive mist]

Bc pepole asked for it

[snow plume]

will i be disconnected after certain amount of time for being afk?

[wet parcel]

Does a portal need power

[naive mist]

From where

[snow plume]

a portal at your base or a glyph portal?

[snow plume]

just in general in the game

[west robin]

This planet isn't all bad.. but the radioactive supercell every like five to eight minutes is a bit bothersome.

[snow plume]

like if im sitting in space can i go afk without being kicked

[wet parcel]

Base

[naive mist]

Need to fill the glyphs

[snow plume]

yes you’ll need power

[naive mist]

No

[wet parcel]

What glyphs

[wet parcel]

Does it need power for me to teleport to it or only for me to teleport from it

[naive mist]

etc

[wet parcel]

Oh

[naive mist]

Each glyph takes like 16 of some element

Oxygen ,carbon,cobalt etc

[candid laurel]

did you know

that no mans sky

is no mans sky

[naive mist]

No

😱

[keen ginkgo]

...fun. like why else?

Its the same reason why starships fly like fighter jets instead of actual spacecraft

[snow plume]

needs power for both i think

[keen ginkgo]

They need power but stay charged for a time

[desert fiber]

eating a asteroid

[smoky jasper]

you can port to a base teleporter w no power but you need to power it back up to port out

[desert fiber]

do i use this on oceanworlds?

i genuienly forget

[dusk burrow]

hmm.. apparently you can buy S-class upgrades for less than their sale value if you hvae some reputation

[oak veldt]

I idle in the game all the time, i never get kicked from it

[dusk burrow]

just bought for 396 nanites and sold right back to the vendor for 480 each

[oak veldt]

Once i idled for 3 hours

[real hearth]

I saw theres a gold version of an Alien multi tool you get way back in the Pioneers expedition, do you get to claim it from the Space Anomaly after or nah?

[keen ginkgo]

I didnt think you could get those anymore, lol

[oak veldt]

Anyone have any spare ?

Asking for a friend

[smoky jasper]

go to trade post and trade w korvax pilots

[snow plume]

for some reason the portal i always use wont work. The podium thing wont pop up

[oak veldt]

Ah okay, i only ever got them from pulse trade! Thanks for the tip

[broken basin]

i just learned wire glitching because nipnip lied about being plantable outdoors

[smoky jasper]

i needed them the other day and korvax pilots had stacks

[oak veldt]

I already have VERY many

I just want more

Something inside me

Longs for the convergence

[smoky jasper]

thats not weird at all

[oak veldt]

[the entity stares, its display unblinking, humming monotone]

[real hearth]

Do you get to keep the Gold Alien Multitool from the Pioneers Expedition if it comes back during Redux?

[desert fiber]

im not really sure how i obtained it

i have a few in storage😭

[keen ginkgo]

Its from a previous expedition

[sleek river]

since when can a whole star system have that sepia filter over it?? I thought it was just planets

[smoky jasper]

i played through pioneers like a week ago and didnt see a gold multi tool

[oak veldt]

besides harvesting smaller rocks, or refining scrap metal, is there a faster way to acquire ferrite dust?

[sleek river]

buying it at space stations

[dusk burrow]

You can refine pure ferrite plus oxygen into rusted metal which refines further into ferrite dust

[wet parcel]

What does the minotaur do all it does for me is walk around and jump no scanning and no gun

[dusk burrow]

but the only thing that requires a lot of dust is metal plating, and you can buy metal plating for cheap at stations, so I recommend doing that instead

[wet parcel]

I got scammed

[dusk burrow]

those are upgrades you can buy for it

[keen ginkgo]

Did you install the scanner and gun?

[dusk burrow]

if you invest in upgrades the Minotaur is extremely fast and powerful

[oak veldt]

ah thats exactly what i needed to know! [the entity beeps jovially, gratefuly for your advice]

[wet parcel]

So I gotta pay even more now?

[wet parcel]

No it came like this

[keen ginkgo]

I recommend playing through a trace of metal

[snow plume]

what do i do if the glyph portal podium wont come up anymore?

[wet parcel]

Whats that

[dusk burrow]

It's true for virtually everything in NMS that the base version is very weak and the power comes from the upgrades, the Minotaur is far from unique in this

[keen ginkgo]

Quest that unlocks the minotaur and upgrades for it

[desert fiber]

ahhh aquarius ?

i forget 😭

[keen ginkgo]

Nope

[desert fiber]

DAMNIT

[keen ginkgo]

The anomalous one

[karmic berry]

Sure ur on the right side? 👀

[wet parcel]

Where do I get the quest

[desert fiber]

oh god that was ages ago

[snow plume]

yeah

[keen ginkgo]

Once you own a settlement itll pop up

[dusk burrow]

the relevant upgrades for the Minotaur are bought from the anomaly

[wet parcel]

Ohh

[dusk burrow]

the taste of metal quest gives some upgrades but probably not the ones the asker actually wants

[keen ginkgo]

They dont cost nanites so

[wet parcel]

How do I despawn an exocraft

[keen ginkgo]

From what ive figured out, you cant

[smoky jasper]

spawn it somewhere else

[wet parcel]

Its stuck in me house

[dusk burrow]

no, they cost things more annoying to acquire if you don't already have them, and they just don't do the thing that's actually requested ;p

[dusk burrow]

The Minotaur can get a terrain manipulator upgrade as well as an extremely powerful mining beam (better than the other exocraft or multitool lasers) and with engine upgrades, the jetpack moves fast and you can use it very often, plus comes with free total environmental protection, so overall it's an extremely strong exocraft I think

[tidal oxide]

Is there any way to upgrade the class of a staff? I can only seem to make up to class A

[keen ginkgo]

Two of them come with weapons

[hollow cape]

can someone help me getting to a system

[keen ginkgo]

Same as any other multitool

[fathom edge]

I saw seven Radiant Pillars in the anomaly today, sure weren't this many before voyagers

[keen ginkgo]

Aren't radiant pillars the starter ship?

[dusk burrow]

yes

[fathom edge]

Yeah

Of course they probably weren't all new players, but it is nice to see a lot more activity on the game

[tidal oxide]

I honestly can't remember if you can upgrade multitool class. I've had my S one so long I don't remember how I got it

[dusk burrow]

you can pay nanites for it yes

[fathom edge]

You can upgrade them in the anomaly

[dusk burrow]

10k for C->B, 25k for B->A, 50k for A->S

you can do it at any space station

[broken basin]

space station, next to multitool upgrade vendor

50k nanites from A to S

[fallen mural]

yur

[tidal oxide]

Ah, thanks!

[hollow cape]

im trying to get to gisto minor in the leburfurf system can anyone help me

[keen ginkgo]

You can, even at space stations

[broken basin]

wait you can upgrade them at the anomaly?

[keen ginkgo]

Kinda crazy that multitools and starships upgrade class for the same amount of nanites though, lol

[broken basin]

storage is where they get you on multitools

exponential costs for increasing iirc

[fathom edge]

Which would be more expensive if they weren't? they both seem equally integral

[keen ginkgo]

My mind says starships because theyd theoretically be more complex

[dusk burrow]

they're both a bit weird because exocraft can do what multitools can do mostly, and corvettes don't need class upgrades so much because you can stack modules on them for similar effects

[keen ginkgo]

No, they need class upgrades for supercharging

[real hearth]

Its a milestone reward for destroying a bunch of sentinels

[keen ginkgo]

Milestone rewards dont give multitools

[smoky jasper]

wasnt in redux

[keen ginkgo]

Oh wait

[real hearth]

I just watched it happen in a video but alright

[keen ginkgo]

Pioneers didn't give a multitool

[fallen mural]

gek cartel type shit

uh this weekend ima make the farm fr

@clever bramble

[broken basin]

milestone rewards in pioneers gave multitool upgrades

it was like mini milestones though and not claimable outside of it

[dusk burrow]

that's why I said "not so much" instead of "not at all"

[fathom edge]

Although aren't the starships built and managed by the space stations, and in turn, the Sentinels, who to them wouldn't be very complex?

[tidal oxide]

You are supposed to be able to have 6 multitools right? I have 4, but when assembling the staff, it only has the option to trade in my current tool or decline

[dusk burrow]

I think you need the weapon rack for more

[keen ginkgo]

I dont think starships are maintained by the sentinels

[fathom edge]

Then who does?

[dusk burrow]

the Gek/Vy'keen/Korvax

[fathom edge]

I would've thought they're too complex to be built by them

[wet parcel]

What is my pets native climate

[tidal oxide]

I have the weapon rack on my freighter, but I am sure I was carrying six before

[fathom edge]

I mean you can only get the parts from other ships

[keen ginkgo]

Same as the planet its from

[broken basin]

check in the companion register

[naive mist]

Check in companion register

[keen ginkgo]

Ive spoken to korvax who are working on designing starship schematics

[dusk burrow]

The Vy'keen nearly won a war against the Sentinels; it's not like they are technologically primitive

[fathom edge]

That's very interesting, thanks

[fathom edge]

But the sentinels are just forces of the Atlas

I wouldn't have thought they could be "beaten" as a whole

[wet parcel]

Its a rodentia machina

[keen ginkgo]

Ahhh, about tha- -kzzt-

[opal spoke]

My friend just started playing for the first time, Joined my world drove his ship full speed into the ground next to my base 😭😭

[dusk burrow]

yeah kinda getting into #nms-lore here

[broken basin]

look for "Native Climate"

[desert fiber]

wanted to put all my expedition decals up here but the entire left side isnt possible 😭

[wet parcel]

Unusual

[desert fiber]

why does build mode hate me 💔

[broken basin]

so you need to be on an unusual planet type for egg laying

[wet parcel]

Oh

What does the pet do

[keen ginkgo]

There might be a decal limit on individual parts

[wet parcel]

Does it js eat my ion batteries

[desert fiber]

nah it just wont show up

[keen ginkgo]

Sounds like base loading complexity stuff

[desert fiber]

it goes through the object into a wall on the back of it

[broken basin]

sounds like a robot pet, those are pretty fast to ride on but otherwise they're companions. some help against aggressors, some perform passive scans

[keen ginkgo]

Hmm, try placing more on the right side?

[desert fiber]

and it places perfectly fine

its only when i size it down to fit too

[keen ginkgo]

Hmmmmm

[keen ginkgo]

I believe decals are square in model

Idk what's going on still, but maybe you could overlap decals so they arent all being placed on the panel

[keen ginkgo]

In fact im pretty sure the purple one is overlapping two other decals

[fallen mural]

i did sum simila with the panels except just...guns

[desert fiber]

just placed a fresh one and tried it

its just the left side

[lethal adder]

My current all salvaged corvette

[west robin]

It's really easy to make nipnip cookies.

[broken basin]

ya its all plantable

[west robin]

I was growing the frostwort for glass, jesus.

[real hearth]

I mean its even listed as a milestone reward in phase 5 on the fandom wiki. The tool is called "Geometric Dream Inverter"

[west robin]

You know what?

[inverts your dreams.]

😂

[real hearth]

lmfaoooo

[broken basin]

oh well it was expedition only afaik, not a claimable. ig if you were to keep the save you could keep the multi on that save if you were to do it from the terminal in the anomaly maybe you could copy it that way, depends on how it's done

like its not available from the anomaly guy

[smoky jasper]

i dig a hole with the terrain manipulator, swap to flatten, and obliterate an area for a few thousand silica that refines into glass

[west robin]

Yeah, but you need significantly less frostwort for glass.

[smoky jasper]

but you can do silica on the fly, dealers choice i guess

i like making all glass fishing shacks when i find nice spots to fish

[dusk burrow]

ok, the minotaur makes harvesting storm crystals super easy; totally immune to the Extreme weather, can juts walk around and pick em up

on the other hand, why oh why did I bother mining Activated Cadmium

[empty marlin]

activated obsolete batteries

[west robin]

We all make mistakes piloting the minotaur.

Kinda like the PRAWN from subnautica.

[desert fiber]

@keen ginkgo had to get creative ish

but yeah decals ontop of decals start to get freaked out

[dusk burrow]

Man that thing was fun (until they removed the fun in Below Zero)

also, damn, this system has three Extreme planets in it

[fallen mural]

how do i get rich

[dusk burrow]

set up farms and mining for expensive items, like fusion ignitors

I did 20 fusion ignitors per day (330m)

[fallen mural]

its looks like earth with saturn's ring

[west robin]

You've gone to plaid.

[west robin]

Turn nipnip into herbal crunchies. It's worth more and all the ingredients can be grown.

[tawny grail]

I was doing an autophage mission and when I returned the npc turned into a beacon???

[west robin]

Trigger your scanner thing.

[fallen mural]

yo. do i cop

[fallen mural]

rreally? can you elaborate more in my dms, im going to create a farm for nipnip, i alreasdy have one for my freighter but that would be fun

[tawny grail]

I know how the scanner works. The npc is nowhere to be found and instead the quest marker is on the beacon/

[tidal fulcrum]

Interact with the beacon maybe?

[tawny grail]

if tht worked I wouldnt be here

[fallen mural]

yall fuck with my pirate trading ship

[hot hatch]

Trader run tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime.

[tawny grail]

I need to re design my ship so I can have an outdoor deck

[dusk burrow]

what does the interior of a Corvette do if you place multiple habs touching side on? is there just no wall and it's a larger interior space?

[broken basin]

makes two archways

not wide open

[proud osprey]

what’s the best way to get salvaged frigate modules

other than shooting cargo pods

[gentle monolith]

Didn't check yet but how big could you make a corvette? Like, at max?

[proud osprey]

that’s not working for me

[fallen mural]

there is doors ways inbetween them

[dusk burrow]

it's 100 parts if I recall

[gentle monolith]

Could make a pretty big corvette all things considered with a 100 parts.

[dusk burrow]

there's probably also a volume limit but it's pretty big

[broken basin]

100 corvette parts, doesn't count on foot buildables right?

[fallen mural]

no you can spam decor afte

[dusk burrow]

don't think so

[soft bough]

what up dorks

[final token]

The cost of lemmium

[soft bough]

get to crafting

[final token]

Noh

Gotta do bunches of bounties

[runic pumice]

or.... just become a sentinal interceptor salvage dealer.

even a c rank is worth like 25,000,000U

[soft bough]

...what

[runic pumice]

make a corvette to drive that looks like a tow truck.

[final token]

Im down for sentinel hunts but what oart of them is worth 25m units

[stark wadi]

no dedicated channel for game pics?

[final token]

Oh. Oh just reread it. The crashed ships. Yea I dont know how to find the downed interceptors

[runic pumice]

the crash ones. also the brains from the ones you shoot can refine to nanites.

[final token]

The multitools from the sentinel pillars are worth a good chunk too

[runic pumice]

yep

[final token]

Finished my first expedition, now doing the artemis quest

I dread doing bounties

[drowsy lance]

personally i would buy a popemobile made with a real jesus christ for a pretty high price, like fym

sentinels are familiars of the atlas himself

[soft bough]

how come i can't post screens here 😭

[drowsy lance]

proud of you buddy

keep us updated

also bounties are really cool, like you can stack 100 quests for killing some animals, kill just 20 of them and become a proud owner of a pile of various shit

[final token]

Building gek rep, suppose I could just do way more contraband runs

[drowsy lance]

[final token]

Gek frend!

[tulip oar]

good morning

i am home

[empty marlin]

hii

Is refined flour just not usable for anything? I've tried many ingredients with it

[broken basin]

makes a lot of stuff

mainly doughs

[empty marlin]

ah

I think cooking is just not for me lol

[broken basin]

try yeast (from faecium) + flour

[empty marlin]

ooo, ty

[broken basin]

or for sweet dough try sugar + flour

[sleek dirge]

Alrighty

[empty marlin]

disgusting but useful

[sleek dirge]

So I just did the expedition and did 3 of 5

[empty marlin]

poop+flour

[broken basin]

lol

[sleek dirge]

I'm happy

Cooking is fun in this

It's like BOTW

Toss some ingredients in, see what happens

[empty marlin]

brother of the walrus

[dim trail]

I seen 2 bases built in away that makes others wounder how the player use it.1 on a tallest mountain not your jet pack can get to it the other buried in the ground

[broken basin]

i cook while i feesh

[sleek dirge]

Ahh Feeshing

[empty marlin]

fei xing

[sleek dirge]

The one in the ground might be BC planets do re-grow

[dusk burrow]

ok, this is ugly AF, but should minimize the odds of the damn thing clipping into my bases?

[verbal copper]

im gettin bored of fossil hunting, been doin this for an hour or 2 lookin for the protoform skull and stubbed tail. i think imma take a fishin break

[tired bloom]

i built a star destroyer right at the 100 part limit

[sleek dirge]

Just paint it a little bit

It'll look better

I made the Normandy Sr2

[tulip oar]

very nice

[keen ginkgo]

Ooh, neat

[empty marlin]

cool,

[verbal copper]

i have a royal ship, a noncorvette, thats just a cockpit n it spawns clipped into my bases. i think its just a thing tbh

[dusk burrow]

ah

I'll probably just put it back then

[empty marlin]

looking in my inventory just teleported me on top of my ship

better than last night where walking off the ramp out my ship intending to step onto a planet got me the extravehicular milestone via superman moment

[hot hatch]

Expeditions take 24hr to reset?

[broken basin]

lmao i got launched the other night too for some reason

[hot hatch]

Frigate Expeditions.

[empty marlin]

glad it's not just me 😂

[broken basin]

its not 24h its a set time

not sure when it is though

basically 24h but not quite

like if you start them in the morning more might be available later

[hot hatch]

Well I've just come back to my frigates returning home, and :\

I can't send them on another one right now.

[broken basin]

yeah might be like an hour or so

not sure how that works

[hot hatch]

Yeah, probably. It was last night that I sent them away.

[broken basin]

its usually late evening when they reset for me

[dusk burrow]

how do people go about making good looking ships anyway? when I farm corvette parts from scrap you get 1 cosmetic piece of every possible appearance and it doesn't fit together at all

[tired bloom]

Grok:

Redeployment FrequencyYou can send frigates on new expeditions once every 24 hours, as the available missions reset daily at 00:00 UTC (Coordinated Universal Time, or midnight GMT).

[slate python]

Welp I've got a phosphorus mine a salt mine and an activated emeril mine

[broken basin]

lots of salvaging, lots of trading, or going into creative build

mostly the latter

[dusk burrow]

fair

[broken basin]

my turtle is all salvaged

[smoky jasper]

Nice found a reliable way to find ocean planets

[dusk burrow]

um, my storage unit is.. gone

[smoky jasper]

Just search for lithium lol

[dusk burrow]

I specifically didn't move or touch the piece with the storage unit in it

I probably should have just deconstructed the unit..

[broken basin]

it should have given some of the mats back

someone else said it doesnt refund them all but i feel like its given me them back mostly

[dusk burrow]

ah yeah I have the mats but can't place a new storage unit of that type

[lime haven]

Hi guys! There are beautiful captures in #nms-photomode-gallery needing more love! They only make it to #the-louvre if they have enough heart emojis. Self & non hearts don't count.
-# more info

[dusk burrow]

oh yeah, it does, it was just greyed out for some reason, but clicking it still actually worked

[broken basin]

maybe its there but just not displaying

yeah

sometimes parts are weird and take longer to load in

you'll notice it with complex bases too

[fallen mural]

i finished the autophage quest, but i dont have the race what do i do, i want to get some poinchos

[empty marlin]

uhhh

[keen ginkgo]

Terminal

[empty marlin]

not sure how long my base is for this world

[broken basin]

gotta buy them at the terminals (ponchos)

[fallen mural]

where at a camp?

[empty marlin]

one of those giant indestructible mushrooms spawned right next to it, no doubt it'll be inside next

[keen ginkgo]

An autophage camp, yeah

[drowsy lance]

maybe you don't deserve "poinchos" for spelling them that way

[dusk burrow]

did you try using the terrain manipulator to mine underneath it? that seems to kill pretty much everything, or walk over it with an exocraft

[empty marlin]

was not aware of that, ty. I've tried to mine under them looking for salvage that apparently spawned inside them, but didn't try entirely mining out the whole area

[dusk burrow]

most things instantly die when crushed by an exocraft or the terrain manipulator mines the floor they're on

plants, crystals, etc

[empty marlin]

exocraft maybe someday

[craggy patio]

this includes the light exocrafts like pilgrim and nomad

[empty marlin]

when I figure out how to get one

[broken basin]

oh its your first base

[empty marlin]

well

[dusk burrow]

all you gotta do is buy the geobay blueprint for salvaged data from the anomaly, then build the geobay

so it's very simple, especially for just a roamer

[empty marlin]

first on the expedition. I haven't gotten to play much of the main story like I'd like because stupid time-limited thing happening

[broken basin]

you get a lot of them free

[dusk burrow]

you do but it involves a lot of annoying main story quest first

[empty marlin]

I like the main story stuff, wish I could do it instead of this stupid expedition lol

[fallen mural]

wtf r void motes

[rough dagger]

motes of void

[empty marlin]

motes from the void

[dusk burrow]

my primary issue is that if you want to do the other stuff first, the main story quest gives few rewards, because you don't get anything in place of unlocks you already have, and it mostly involves just running around from A to B

[keen ginkgo]

Huh?

[rough dagger]

also the autophage currency but thats less important

[broken basin]

autophage currency

[fallen mural]

💔 how do i get it

[broken basin]

you get them for doing tasks for the autophages

[empty marlin]

aah, makes sense

[rough dagger]

autophage quests

[empty marlin]

There's only four weeks of the expedition, so I feel pressured to do that instead of things that are fun

[rough dagger]

are you on pc?

[keen ginkgo]

You're still doing it?

[broken basin]

try looking up an expedition speedrun video on youtube

[empty marlin]

I'll just say yes to avoid the other thing. Close enough

[dusk burrow]

From what I can see the expedition doesn't give anything worth having really, so you can just skip it if you don't want it

[rough dagger]

if ur on pc you can rerun them later even after the finish running

or steamdeck

[keen ginkgo]

Man all the dang redux must have trained me for speed running expeditions

[empty marlin]

aaah, okay, thank you

I'm on mac lol but I'm sure the mechanics are the same

[broken basin]

it is

[rough dagger]

i think that works yea

[empty marlin]

other than it probably runs for more than 20 minutes at a time on PC/steam deck

[keen ginkgo]

You can also swap back and forth if you initialized from your main save

[pale forge]

Hello

[fallen mural]

what do i cop

[rough dagger]

you have to do some hacky-ish stuff to do it but you wont get banished or anything

[empty marlin]

I didn't, but good to know

[broken basin]

returners

[clever bramble]

Returners drip

[rough dagger]

just disconnect ur wifi and put a file in a specific folder

[empty marlin]

oh

that sounds like something I definitely won't do

[keen ginkgo]

I like both, but its up to you

[clever bramble]

Returners drip with a cape is top tier swag

[broken basin]

you dont have to d/c wifi you just put steam in offline mode

[rough dagger]

huh the more you know

[empty marlin]

I can't keep the stupid game running without doing anything sketchy lol

[rough dagger]

its wont break ur game more than it already is

i think

[keen ginkgo]

Tbh turning off the wifi might improve performance, lol

[broken basin]

its just a cache file

worst that happens is that cache file gets overwritten when you reconnect to steam

[empty marlin]

I was just complaining simultaneously to a crash right now lol I just don't like playing any game ways the creator didn't intend unless I've just already gotten all the value I can out of a game

that one was exactly 20 minutes, despite very little play kek

[stark wadi]

new pet like 40ft tall

[empty marlin]

FINALLY

[rough dagger]

basically, when you start an expedition it downloads a file that tells the game how to set up the expedition, so if you put a recreated version of that file where it normally goes and make sure nms cant verify theres an expedition (by putting steam in offline mode) then the game thinks theres an expedition happening and runs it

so its basically intended

[empty marlin]

Man what bot or spammer is going to get to level 3 without getting banned first, 5 is so excessive

bro

If you have to disable online functionality to trick a game

that's not intended

[rough dagger]

ok but it recreates what happens when you run it for real

[empty marlin]

okay

that is also true of activation hacks for windows

[rough dagger]

if you ran the expedition while it was active and ended up disconnected from the internet, there would be no difference

[empty marlin]

that's true, but not what happened

[rough dagger]

whatever you do you

[empty marlin]

If I steal three tomatoes, the outcome is the same as if I paid for the tomatoes as long as I succeed

[dusk burrow]

not exactly, the outcome is the same for you, not for whoever was selling them

in this case though the outcome is the same for the dev as well as for you

[empty marlin]

-_- I wasn't making a moral argument, I was pointing out a fallacy

[dusk burrow]

and I was pointing out that your pointing out is wrong ;p

[empty marlin]

Okay genius

[verbal copper]

idk which filter i like more, but im happy with the shot

[smoky jasper]

Damn this system didnt disappoint, looking for ocean planets and this one has 3

[desert fiber]

drape

[desert fiber]

this is my fav photo

i love this purple filter so much

[keen ginkgo]

I remember being surprised to find out that ocean planets didnt have to be titan worlds

[verbal copper]

i got a shot like that one in a system that had a natural pink filter over everything

I just upgraded my headset and its wild to be able to see my phone/discord and text via the pass through cameras dont need to be taking it off and putting it back on every 5 mins

[verbal copper]

your shot does too 🙂 i love this games photography

[smoky jasper]

Also the game looks a million times better

[empty marlin]

that's cool :o

[lucid nacelle]

Really wish there were I bulk refiner lol.

[desert fiber]

ty!!

[desert fiber]

meow!

[keen ginkgo]

I believe its called "20 freighter refiner rooms"

Thats what my cousin uses to farm nanites at least, lol

[lucid nacelle]

Yes. I have that. But I want a single interface for that scale!

[empty marlin]

I am going to be upset but unsurprised if the crashing stops now that I moved it back to the internal drive..

[shut crater]

Hey quick question. Is there a mining beam / resource scouter for the space ship, and also how do I make mining raw materials not take so much time. I’m new to the game

[lucid nacelle]

Farming nanites that way is insane. Just farm sentinels and sell the stuff from the glass

[keen ginkgo]

Shooting stuff on the ground works for mining, though for asteroids I like using phase beam

[shut crater]

And so much time has been spent just walking or flying forever in search of copper on my paradise planet. Did upgrade my mining beam on the multi tool so it’s very fast but still, finding the ore is annoying

[woven totem]

You know what would be cool. If you could build your own Freighter 😎

[lucid nacelle]

Let me link refiner rooms so I can just dump 5000 of a resource to refine lol.

[broken basin]

there is a trick to mining where you resize your laser to be smaller to get more from veins

later you will get mining tools (buildable extractors) to make resource acquisition easier

[rough relic]

you can gather a lot of resources with any weapon system on the ship, mostly basic ones but you can get a lot at one time by just shooting at node rich areas on the surface

[keen ginkgo]

Is there a way to trust the dang auto miners?

[lucid nacelle]

Yep. using R and T on the Terrain modifier scales the size its great.

[dusk burrow]

the mineral/gas extractors are totally trustworthy

[keen ginkgo]

Not those

[shut crater]

I can’t seem to be able to detect resources when I’m in my ship though.

[dusk burrow]

then no

[broken basin]

no lol

not the fueled ones

i hate

[shut crater]

Is there a good scanner for that?

[rough relic]

theres a resource scanner module for the multi tool that will show you where mining nodes are

[rough relic]

thats because you cant

[keen ginkgo]

The dang fueled ones should mine faster

[shut crater]

Or like, a more efficient way to get chromatic metal?

[empty marlin]

presumably because the devs figure we enjoy pain

[keen ginkgo]

Oh and also actually be portable

[broken basin]

you can refine ferrite into pure ferrite and combine that in a medium refiner to get increased yeild from metallic elements used to make chromatic metal (ie: copper + pure ferrite)

[keen ginkgo]

You sorta can, because the ship scan highlights the ore node like your normal scanner does

[verbal copper]

or a better stellar metal

[rough relic]

activated materials and better materials yeild higher volumes of chromatic metal in order from least to most activated copper < cadmium < emril < indium < quartzite

[empty marlin]

dang, turning the graphics down did not fix the lighting bug like I hoped

[woven totem]

Whats the fastest way to Mine Resources 🤔

[keen ginkgo]

Wait does quartzite give more chromatic metal than indium? I thought it was the same

[verbal copper]

seems to mainly be an issue in the anomaly and space stations for me

[keen ginkgo]

Inefficiently

[lucid nacelle]

There is truth in this statement.

[rough relic]

im assuming its more i havent looked i based my logic on progression

[empty marlin]

same; I haven't seen it on a planet, only in stations and right outside stations

[verbal copper]

the same but faster iirc

[keen ginkgo]

Ooh, worth it

[rough relic]

for me? minotaur with an advanced laser lol

[keen ginkgo]

Oh I thought they meant with the terrain manipulator

[stark wadi]

i need to make a extractor on a gas giant

[empty marlin]

for me, mining beam and ignoring my perfectionism to just scattershot the whole vein rather than slowly etching out the edges like I want to

[keen ginkgo]

Actually... no im pretty sure the exocraft mining lasers are less efficient than hand

[rough relic]

i get better yields with the minotaur on mining nodes than the terrain manipulator

[keen ginkgo]

Ok im sold

[desert sun]

Mining beam and runic lens together on the same tool, only works with atlantid and sentinel tools

[keen ginkgo]

Especially since I wanna stockpile activated quartzite for chromatic metal supu

[keen ginkgo]

WAIT THAT WORKS?

[rough relic]

plus unlike the other exos the minotaur can look down lol

[desert sun]

Yes, makes it faster, mine more, and almost never overheat

[keen ginkgo]

Brb gonna slam my head against the wall as I add mining beam to my atlas staff

[lucid nacelle]

Kinda wish I could create loadouts for a weapon. so I could swap from weapon to mining without dragging mods one by one lol

[empty marlin]

how do I plant things in the living wall? I get no interaction prompt or anything

[rough relic]

ship build menu

assuming you have the blueprints

[empty marlin]

thank you!

[desert sun]

I just have different tools for mining and fighting

[keen ginkgo]

That is the reason to have more than one multitool

[empty marlin]

wait blueprints?

I need blueprints for.. plants?

[lucid nacelle]

Yeah, thats the plan.. but I dont have a second S rank, so not viable atm

[keen ginkgo]

Well, what material is needed to grow echinocactus?

[empty marlin]

Presumably echinocactus.

[keen ginkgo]

And?

[empty marlin]

dirt

water

[rough relic]

yea i got them from the agriculture gek dude during the base building mission

[keen ginkgo]

See, thats why you need a blueprint

[lucid nacelle]

Probably Fucium

as well

[empty marlin]

man I have grown a cactus

[keen ginkgo]

No, echinocactus need pyrite

[desert sun]

Just because a tool isn't s class doesn't mean it's useless

[empty marlin]

it took no blueprint

[timber haven]

What i have noticed with those is they lose everything if you log off of the save.
Knock on wood, I've gone to other systems and left them work and they were fine.
However none of them are terribly far from one of my bases.

[empty marlin]

it took a cactus, dirt, and water

[desert fiber]

why😭

[quick knoll]

Hehe spaceship:)

[keen ginkgo]

Was that in like 2017 by chance?

[keen ginkgo]

Because atlas staff comes with runic beam

[lucid nacelle]

Yeah, I mean you're not wrong, but I dont want to waste upgrades on something that wont last me lol.

[empty marlin]

No, it was in like 1997

[keen ginkgo]

I never added mining beam because I thought it was redundant

[desert sun]

Just upgrade the class of the tool

[keen ginkgo]

Just get 50-85k nanites

[desert fiber]

😭

wait is there

a reason is mining beam better?

[lucid nacelle]

Im working on it. at around 60k atm

[desert sun]

Or just take them off when you find a better one and put them on it

[desert fiber]

or is it like a weapon rather miner

[keen ginkgo]

Put both together for adjacency bonus

[desert fiber]

ohhh

[lucid nacelle]

Was referring to slot upgrades lol.

[empty marlin]

:< I'm only even doing it for the expedition

[desert sun]

Oh

[keen ginkgo]

Eh, I know I'll eventually replace my rifle with a Sentinel or atlantid weapon

[empty marlin]

oh thank God, I still got a crash

I can put it back on the external drive now

also that time I made it almost 30 minutes instead of 20

[keen ginkgo]

I just got tired of pressing g 7 times

[rough relic]

these

[keen ginkgo]

It should reward you the blueprints

[desert fiber]

me😭

[empty marlin]

I guess I'll look at the other milestones in this phase and see if one gives blueprints

[keen ginkgo]

My staff is now my mining/magic (charged weapon) tool

[empty marlin]

once the game reloads for the fifth time

[keen ginkgo]

I recommend doing the milestones in order for this one, most give rewards that help for the next one after

[desert fiber]

i need to just keep the bomb that like has splash the mining beam and a bolt caster tbh

[empty marlin]

I am; that's why I was confused by it just wanting me to magically be able to do things

[keen ginkgo]

The one right before the farming thing should've given plant blueprints

[keen ginkgo]

And I mean like all the things in rough order

[snow plume]

if i use a glyph portal to go to another galaxy would my ship and suit still break?

[keen ginkgo]

You cant

Portals dont have an entry for galaxy

[desert sun]

Can't use them to go between galaxies

[snow plume]

i mean a planet in another galaxy

[empty marlin]

the one before that is to install corvette inventory modules I don't have 😔

[keen ginkgo]

Yes, I know

[desert sun]

Yes it doesn't work

[snow plume]

oh

[keen ginkgo]

Check the one before that

[empty marlin]

I got 2 out of the three by accidentally completing a later phase milestone

[keen ginkgo]

I remember getting a few habs from the one before

[empty marlin]

I was not aware habs increased inventory lol

thank you

[keen ginkgo]

Pretty much each milestone that rewards "# of [trait] corvette modules" has a milestone right after that requires you to add them

[empty marlin]

yea

would just be nice if they said "install habs" if that's what they mean rather than "install corvette modules to increase inventory capacity"

[keen ginkgo]

Usually youd be missing one piece though and have to get it yourself

[ancient pecan]

Is the switch 1 version worth a buy at 60$ ? Was hyped about voyages but its not available.. should I pass or buy?

[keen ginkgo]

Habs and cargo things increase inventory capacity

[empty marlin]

I see now, thank you

[lethal pulsar]

Nipnip is space weed isn't it

[keen ginkgo]

No problem, day 3 of the expedition being out I powered through the whole thing because I loved messing with the corvette

Though I cheated the plant collecting one by stealing from another player's corvette, lol

[lethal pulsar]

How can a plant be illegal??

[empty marlin]

I'm really enjoying the corvette stuff

[keen ginkgo]

Copyright/controlled substances

[lethal pulsar]

Also hello Aurix

[empty marlin]

not so much enjoying the everything being hostile for no reason and being required to fish, but hey why not

[keen ginkgo]

Hi

[desert sun]

Yes

[lethal pulsar]

In DND aren't you a golden dragon?

[keen ginkgo]

Yes

My pfp is literally taken from a dnd wiki page, lol

[lethal pulsar]

That's pretty cool, how I know that, I played a game called "Pathfinder wrath of the righteous"

You could be a golden dragon in that later on in the game

[keen ginkgo]

Ok imma look this game up

[lethal pulsar]

But since I'm not an evil jackass, I stuck with angel

[keen ginkgo]

Gold dragons arent evil but thats unrelated to no mans sky

[empty marlin]

grrr

booster can only be placed on the side, and I only have one

ridiculously stupid ship go

[keen ginkgo]

Real

I probably could've finished the expedition in a single game session if I weren't veering off to dig up more parts

[empty marlin]

^

for me, trying to dig up parts, because the planets that aren't hostile hardly have any, and the planets that have any are unsurvivable

[keen ginkgo]

Don't sleep on trading though, you can end up with some really funny deals

[west moth]

anyone got a guaranteed gek dreadnaought farm in esseintham

[keen ginkgo]

I think I got an ambassador access bay on a 14% trade likelihood

[rough kayak]

How advanced are y'all's settlements?

[keen ginkgo]

Define advanced

[empty marlin]

I'll check it out, thank you

[rough kayak]

How many people/buildings do you have

[empty marlin]

Mine is the most advanced. It has a reactor, a teleporter, and a fancy roof

[keen ginkgo]

Uhhhhhh I forgor. All I know is its A class rn

My first one, at least

[rough kayak]

Im struggling a little with the debt of my first settlement

[keen ginkgo]

Upgrade production buildings first, they may take longer than housing but they are much more worth it

Send out expeditions whenever you can, a successful one can help lower the debt

Some materials for upgrades can be found by blowing up sentinel depots

Others require visiting a system with the right economy

[rough kayak]

Thank you

[keen ginkgo]

Once you get a settlement out of debt, they can also help produce things to help upgrade other settlements, if you decide on running more than one

[rough kayak]

I do, I'm just focusing on the first one rn

[west moth]

anyone got a guaranteed gek dreadnaought farm in esseintham

[empty marlin]

dread naoaoaoaoaoughtao

[snow plume]

how do i get an appearance modifier for my base?

im at a random base and i see one and i thought they were only at space stations and the anomaly

[quartz geyser]

The anomaly has more base parts than the construction computer

[empty marlin]

sweet, that crash didn't even give me a crash ID to report

[quartz geyser]

Exchange for salvaged data

[snow plume]

where in the anomaly though? I havent seen a place there to buy base stuff

[broken basin]

how far into the story are you

you unlock it fairly early in the artemis story line

[quartz geyser]

Have you been hanging out in the parking lot the whole time

[snow plume]

i have the anomaly

[snow plume]

no

[broken basin]

very back

behind nada and polo

there are like 6 stations

[quartz geyser]

Are you rage baiting

[snow plume]

no

[empty marlin]

tbf the anomaly layout was extremely confusing for me the first time I went there

[snow plume]

oh there ok

[proud osprey]

you can summon it in the quick selection

[snow plume]

where the exosuit and multitool stuff is

[quartz geyser]

Yes

[broken basin]

yup, construction research is second on the left (middle)

[empty marlin]

@empty marlin 6:49 launched game so you don't forget the time again

[snow plume]

yeah i still get confused in there sometimes

[quartz geyser]

It is weird starting with a construction computer and then a construction research gek and then for more you need to go to the anomaly

[snow plume]

or forget where stuff is

[empty marlin]

LOL I just fell out the window of my ship

note to self: don't walk into the corner of the window once you're in space

[quartz geyser]

^ also take the stairs slow

[empty marlin]

haha ty

beautiful

[woven totem]

You know what would be cool if you could build your own Freighter. That would be cool. 😎

[empty marlin]

learn to code and apply at hello games

[keen ginkgo]

It would be cool, but not much point tbh

Unless it was something similar to regular starship construction

But most people want the capital-type ships anyway

[empty marlin]

ughhh I don't want to fish

[snow plume]

thanks

[keen ginkgo]

Fishing is chill

Doesnt take long either

[empty marlin]

:|

oh ok

[keen ginkgo]

Its like... 3 fish you gotta catch? I forgot, lol

[fallen mural]

you mean like....getting a job 😨

[gleaming mauve]

What happens if I warp to a dissonant system while someone is in my corvette who hasn't unlocked them

[full zodiac]

how do i get a dream aeriel?

[empty marlin]

yea, I gotta remove a module from my multi-tool to make room for a fishing rod to catch 3 fish

[broken basin]

they die

[keen ginkgo]

Dissonant or purple?

[broken basin]

/s btw

[gleaming mauve]

Purple

[cunning iris]

Send frigate expeditions, one of them will bring it to you

[keen ginkgo]

Ive heard they get kicked out

[empty marlin]

welp

lights went out in my ship

I estimate 2 minutes until next crash

[full zodiac]

do i have to send expiditions somewhere specific?

[smoky jasper]

Nice found my first helmet crab planet

[keen ginkgo]

Pretty sure any expedition has a chance for a dream aerial if you havent gotten one yet

[cunning iris]

Nope, just send them. There's some luck involved in it.

[full zodiac]

ok ty

[craggy patio]

i didnt think this thing could spawn outside of that one expedition egg, much less SHMOOVE

[empty marlin]

lol is it going to trigger sentinel interceptors every time I harvest my gravitino host?

[craggy patio]

no

[empty marlin]

thank you

[craggy patio]

only "wild" gravitinos should trigger it

[snow plume]

every landing pad says “Landing Pad Unavailable” why cant i use any of them? I put one at my base and i cant even use that either

[empty marlin]

ngl would be kind of funny, though

[craggy patio]

if you're using a corvette, they're too big for landing pads and you need to make a wide empty space

[snow plume]

oh

[empty marlin]

or you can just teleport to your base and have it land awkwardly on the roof for no reason like I do

[craggy patio]

that said your corvette WILL spawn on the landing pads of settlements but not actually occupy it... causing NPC ships to land inside your corvette.

[empty marlin]

oh good

I fished one more times than I wanted to and caught broken tech instead of the fish I need but don't want

[dark palm]

you can fish up tech?

[keen ginkgo]

Those techs intrigue me

I wonder if they count separate from other upgrade modules

[empty marlin]

broken tech that doesn't say whether it does anything

[dark palm]

weird... is it just sellable junk or something?

[keen ginkgo]

I think you gotta install it to see what it does

[empty marlin]

^

[dark palm]

tbf ive not done much fishing, besides that what else can you fish up?

[empty marlin]

so far, nothing

definitely not fish

[keen ginkgo]

Bruh ive almost always only got fish

[dark palm]

Occasionally, inanimate objects may be retrieved from the water instead of fish. Such objects include procedurally generated messages in bottles and water-damaged technology upgrades.

according to website

[mossy shore]

wait if i want another living ship do i need to re buy a void egg

[dark palm]

i think so

[fallen mural]

just finished the autophage quest, i will gett he poncho tmw 🙏

[empty marlin]

for some reason there's like a 1.5sec delay when I try to reel in, too??

so I'm just not catching anything aside from that first broken thing

[ancient pecan]

Any switch 1 updates?

[sleek dirge]

So wait, when I decide to park my corvette mid-air, and drop down, it spawns a small teleporter?

[dark palm]

yeh

makes it easy to return to your midair ship 🙂

[desert sun]

Switch 1 isn't getting corvettes, it's not powerful enough

:(

[flat ingot]

what should I do with a fossil sample

?

[ancient pecan]

Has this been confirmed anywhere yet?

[dark palm]

you can buy display stands

and build skeleton displays

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Fossil_Display

[flat ingot]

I’d display the sample?

[dark palm]

you need various bone parts, but yeh

A display stand designed to showcase the recovered remains of ancient lifeforms. Once placed, ancient bones can be arranged to re-create countless animal forms. A complete fossil requires a skull, a ribcage, two sets of limbs, and a tail.

[flat ingot]

preserved gastropod dna isn’t a fossil though?

[dark palm]

assuming it's ancient bones you've dug up rather than just sellable relics

some relics are just worth money

[empty marlin]

yesss

one rusted junk, three fish, and a message in a bottle about using fish as pen pals later, the nightmare is over

[empty marlin]

I don't think the Switch 1's GPU really compares that poorly to the M1 Macbook Air, and the latter got corvettes

[desert sun]

Yes this was announced about a week ago

[ancient pecan]

Provide source please

[dark palm]

just realised ive never even seen a planetary dig site... which is apparently a thing

[ancient pecan]

This doesn't say switch 1 isn't poweful enough lol

[flat ingot]

it’s probably a partnership with switch

[desert sun]

What other reason would there be?

[lethal adder]

There are two type of people: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.

[flat ingot]

to encourage buyers to switch to two

[ancient pecan]

Why wouldn't they just say its not powerful enough

If that was the case

[desert sun]

Idk

But my steam deck gets constant crashes because of corvettes and it's far more powerful then a switch

[ancient pecan]

I wonder if they are working on it or.. wish we got some info

[desert sun]

And that was the reason switch never got settlements either

[rough relic]

some lucky traveller on the anomaly is about to get 3000 void mote because....im never gonna use it

[ancient pecan]

Makes sense

[flat ingot]

what is void more for?

[empty marlin]

thank you for sharing this. I get crashes every 20 minutes most of the time (but the rare stretch of 2 hours uninterrupted) and am on mac, wasn't sure if it was a mac thing or not

[desert sun]

Currency later

[snow plume]

how do i get rid of a communications station? I put one of those flying robots in my base and now i cant get rid of it at all

[ancient pecan]

"However, a later update called Beacon (Patch 5.7, released June 2025) included a major overhaul of the settlement system. " i wonder if its being worked on for a later release

[snow plume]

and for some reason a second one just spawned

[ancient pecan]

Wishful tilhinking lol time to upgrade consoles lol

[empty marlin]

I doubt the Switch will get much more just because it's now last-gen

I just also don't think it's a horsepower issue

[maiden badge]

I FINNALLY FOUND WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR

AFTER SO LONG I FINALLY HOUND IT HAHAAHAHA

[hollow aurora]

Because that would make Nintendo upset? I thought it’s a given people don’t like being on Nintendo’s bad side

[desert sun]

What is it?
