no-mans-sky

[maiden badge]

hell yeah gunter gets it

[keen ginkgo]

Yeah thats literally the insane sort of difference I'm talking about

But I hadn't really thought to track whether production time shifts by an hour

For me, though, it was the reverse

First 2 settlements take ages to make stuff, 3rd outpaces literally the rest combined

[oak orchid]

Settlement A is in 2 star High tech solar system

[keen ginkgo]

Well

That basically shoots down my system economy theory

My 3rd settlement is in 3 star economy that I forgot the type

4th is in a 2 star, and it doesnt produce nearly as fast, but it does produce things faster than my first settlements do

[hardy tendon]

we talking about space stocks?

[keen ginkgo]

Settlements and what the heck makes them do things differently

[oak orchid]

one is in a 2 star mining one

one in a one star power generation one

[keen ginkgo]

Ok just to get another variable

[keen ginkgo]

What species is the settlement?

[oak orchid]

I did 1 settlement for each species

[hardy tendon]

Ah. Don't they change prices in sustem economy or something? I dunno how much tho

[maiden badge]

each corner of the galaxy.... if I find a good planet in any I'll throw a base down, but I got all my information saved in a doc

[oak orchid]

A is Gek

[remote cypress]

bro

[keen ginkgo]

Man I really hope this isnt the case

My best producing settlement is also gek

[remote cypress]

are solar ships weak??? i just bumped onto a friegther and died

full shield btw

[keen ginkgo]

Solars are the best pulsing ships

[hardy tendon]

Imagine rather than teleporting to a new galaxy, we actually gotta manually warp there lol

[keen ginkgo]

Great for planet hopping

[oak orchid]

oh no

[remote cypress]

wait

if i

[oak orchid]

The worst is the autophorge one

[remote cypress]

wait

so i lose my ship

if it gets destroyed?

[hardy tendon]

Autophurge

[oak orchid]

yeah

[keen ginkgo]

I cant remember if my autophage one is worse than my vykeen one

[oak orchid]

I was to lazy to check the spelling

[hardy tendon]

Lol

[remote cypress]

huh

[oak orchid]

I can't have more than 4 settlements right?

[keen ginkgo]

Correct

[oak orchid]

And I don't know what to do with the fully build one. It's the worst one

[keen ginkgo]

You can retire as overseer and find a new one

[hardy tendon]

Ngl. I feel like every settlement I've been to just sucks ass. I just have an autophage settlement because that's what my guy is. But then all the ppl in the town disappeared so now now I'm an overseer of nothing ;-;

[keen ginkgo]

Scan

[hardy tendon]

Scan?

Oh aight

[oak orchid]

Yeah, but it's really a waste. It took me a week to build it to the max...

[woeful adder]

I wonder what the Gek taste like

[hardy tendon]

My town was in so much crippling debt-

[narrow vigil]

Bacon!

[woeful adder]

I'd eat all of them if that were the case

Full on genocide via munchies

[narrow vigil]

A proto gek bit me once so I bit it back and it tasted like bacon so I figure the gek do too

[oak orchid]

Damn. I can't add a picture here

[narrow vigil]

Death by consumption due to tasting like bacon would be a fitting end to the Gek

[maiden badge]

that wouldn't line up with what the galaxies also are, but also that would be awful. would kill to see anything more than this one view and my pizza box models

[oak orchid]

191/198 population, 178% happyness, 1.9M production, 280k maintenance

debt gets decreased by 19 per second

and it takes 40h to produce anything 🙁

[woeful adder]

I wonder if the Vy'keen taste good

[keen ginkgo]

Wha? That doesnt give me anything to go off of

Is it seriously the species that determines production rates?

[jaunty nimbus]

how is it producing, while in debt.

[woeful adder]

If the Gek do taste like bacon, we must preserve enough of them to create a breeding farm

[keen ginkgo]

They dont

[woeful adder]

Give them a bunch of gek nip so they're too stoned to care

[oak orchid]

It produces once the debt is clear

[woeful adder]

How would you know?

[oak orchid]

I think I know how it's set up

[keen ginkgo]

For one, their biology is more similar to reptiles and amphibians than mammals, and another, their taste would be heavily influenced by their pheromones

[woeful adder]

I think you're lying so that you can hoard all of the delicious Gek

[keen ginkgo]

They would taste really strange

Probably like whatever they were feeling like when they died

[woeful adder]

Maybe if you deep fry em an dump them in chocolate, they would be tasty

[oak orchid]

Gek is for basic items, Vy'keen for weapons maybe, The Autophange seem to produce computer parts ... At least 5 Quantum Computers

[hardy tendon]

Too late. Prepare to absolutely obliterate any kind of resources you got stored for warping. We going on an oregon trail type journey to Hilbert lol

[keen ginkgo]

My gek settlement seems to utterly outperform my others in pretty much every area

[maiden badge]

so.... an entire 217 galaxies for me

[keen ginkgo]

That's just manually jumping anyway, lol

[oak orchid]

Mine doesn't produce much plants though. If I check farming it's 60-... vs. 165 on the other species

[hardy tendon]

Fair lol

[oak orchid]

Could you confirm that?

[hardy tendon]

[maiden badge]

on another note, first shadow star with a dissonant planet they don't correlate, but I still think it's cool

[tulip lagoon]

Is anyone having issues with the freighter base getting all wonky when the warp to it? Like walls/doors missing? I keep having to reset the game

[keen ginkgo]

Unfortunately, I'm not in game rn, so I'm going off memory

[maiden moth]

Shadow Stars are the normal stars, right?

And the phantom stars are the inaccessible?

[keen ginkgo]

Those numbers sound familiar, but im fairly sure I have my gek settlement producing kelp sacs for me

[maiden badge]

there's one shadow star in each region, and yes, they do look like normal stars that you can warp to.

[oak orchid]

My Autophange seem to be good at producing Amino Chambers, Quantum Comuters, Solar Mirrors and that stuff... Which kind of makes sense

[maiden badge]

the way you can tell is by portaling to their glyphs (or glass stars). by going to a shadow star it spits you out at another unrelated system

[keen ginkgo]

Autophage produce more unique products compared to the other species

[oak orchid]

I have nothing in my list

[keen ginkgo]

I mean their basic production is different

[dreamy kayak]

gotta get more stuff to add on, but this is how much I modified my base shell

[maiden moth]

Phantom systems also work similarly, you can’t use portal to reach them, if you enter their coordinates into the portal it will take to completely unrelated system

[oak orchid]

I just see the yellow items you can easily produce or buy in the list more often

[maiden badge]

because phantom stars are the systems that go entirely unused

[dreamy kayak]

just gotta get the outsides of it modified

[keen ginkgo]

Other species dont produce the amino chambers and such, iirc

[oak orchid]

But it sucks that I didn't know that I should have 4 Gek villages

[maiden moth]

Entirely unused?

[dreamy kayak]

villages dont produce much in amino chambers anyways

better off doing that with a freighter/farm

[keen ginkgo]

Don't get 4, retire from the worst one and get a second gek settlement to test if the pattern holds

[maiden badge]

Phantom systems are the seeds that simply go unused, as every region has the potential for 4,096 possible systems, but usually end up with a few hundred that are visible. There are 18 quintillion planet seeds, but in practice, only ~4 quadrillion are accessible in vanilla gameplay; the rest are phantom stars.

@maiden moth

[maiden moth]

I heard about this, I have explored some of this systems, I have found nice glowing grass earthlike inside one of them

[oak orchid]

The Autophage and the Vy'keen ones are just so bad. Nothing of note to be prduced under 35h. It's a shame you don't know how quick the production time of a village is going to be before spending a weekend building it

[keen ginkgo]

It doesnt necessarily take that long, actually

[maiden badge]

phantom stars aren't the most ideal places to be, given their status as unused.

the purple stars that were added were repurposed phantom stars; i.e. they didn't add new ones so much so as much as they tapped into all the unused ones and pulled a few from each region.

[oak orchid]

The autophage one is 40h for everything.

[keen ginkgo]

Upgrading all production buildings to B class is usually enough to start reducing debt

[oak orchid]

You tell me I've started 2 settlements in the last week, and I'm gonna maybe see the first second ones time today

Both had a debt of 1.2 M

[dreamy kayak]

yup think of it as untapped future expansion material

[oak orchid]

So it took quite a few days before the debt is paid of and I can actually see the output

[maiden badge]

you can live in phantom stars, I can't stop you, but you also shouldn't come crying if an update comes along and completely changes the system you were never supposed to see

[keen ginkgo]

Ok that part is true, but thats more waiting than effort

[oak orchid]

It just sucks waiting for 4 days to find out that the settlement is dogshit

[dreamy kayak]

none of the settlement outputs are that good

[oak orchid]

I also don't see the higher production or quality of life changing anything for the actual output

[dreamy kayak]

i wouldn't rate a settlement on output or its use of outputs

[keen ginkgo]

Genuinely untrue

That's the exact thing we are talking about

[dreamy kayak]

well how good can a settlement output be?

[oak orchid]

It was pretty good before

[maiden moth]

I live in phantom sytem that is in the core of the galaxy, it is rather stable, but I also know the risks

[dreamy kayak]

like if its like 20 amino chambers, cool

[keen ginkgo]

Several items in a few hours, often the ones that are most annoying to craft

[maiden badge]

if it's an unrelated system to anything Likholu, then good on you

[keen ginkgo]

I want to get an s class star port at my gek settlement to produce frigate fuel for me

[dreamy kayak]

i just happen to have giant farms and stuff though, how does a settlment compete with that?

[keen ginkgo]

There arent really farms for things like frigate fuel or kelp sacs

[dreamy kayak]

kelp sacs would be nice

frigate fuel I never need

[maiden moth]

It is in eissentam and I can access it with teleport without any problems

[oak orchid]

But under 20h is cool... Like I have 40h to get one metal plate is stupid

[keen ginkgo]

I need it to level up my support ships, lol

[maiden badge]

I got a base at a phantom star in the core of rycempler myself

[maiden moth]

Nice

[maiden badge]

nothing like an elaborate house, just a prefab with a teleporter

[feral hemlock]

i never expected to see platinum in here

[maiden moth]

I am currently working on the design of my base there, but I don’t plan making it my home base

[keen ginkgo]

But yeah, the bad settlements are like 30-40 hr production cycles and the good ones are like 5 hr, there doesnt seem to be much of an in-between

[maiden moth]

I plan to settle in galaxy 90

[maiden badge]

ah, paholiang.

good on people who realize that eis isn't the only lush galaxy in existence

[dreamy kayak]

yeah that’s what i mean but not very productive…. i need way more than that to consider them useful

[maiden moth]

Yeah, people love eis way too much

[dreamy kayak]

compared to farms

[keen ginkgo]

Then set them to the options they have that cannot be farmed

[feral hemlock]

eis is the most accessible out of all lush ones

:D

[maiden badge]

to assume it's the only is still naive

[dreamy kayak]

yeah that’s basically what i gotta do then

[maiden moth]

@maiden badge you live in galaxy 39 ?

[keen ginkgo]

The only craftables I do set settlements to produce are ion batteries and life support things, lol

[maiden badge]

yes

[keen ginkgo]

Just because im lazy about crafting them

[maiden moth]

Galaxy 19 is also very easily accessible

[maiden badge]

as I speak I'm documenting shadow stars in the spirals

[feral hemlock]

🤔

i might make a core jumper

[maiden badge]

-# yeah but also, Isdoraijung is one of the featured bases.

[maiden moth]

I want a galaxy that is untouched

I want to explore some core systems

[feral hemlock]

and just go to like 70 or something

[maiden badge]

that's how I feel and I'm only in Rewmanawa. there's nobody here lmao

[dreamy kayak]

well none are untouched but a good lush galaxy that’s barely touched is the one i use the most, Raldwicarn

i live in the remote galaxies

[maiden moth]

Nice, living in a different galaxy than Euclid and eis is really good

[feral hemlock]

i wish there was another way to visit galaxies than a taxi or core jumps

[maiden moth]

Torweierf is even more untouched I think

[feral hemlock]

or featured base

[zealous mist]

i swear to god if i have to wait 24 hours for another thing to mature someones dying

[maiden badge]

some civ used Rewmanawa to measure its size to see if its size (and by extent, other galaxies) were the same size as Euclid's. it is.

[dreamy kayak]

Im mostly in Odylakutai

[feral hemlock]

living ship takes a week

to mature

:D

in total

[zealous mist]

maaaaannnn

that sucks

[jaunty nimbus]

mission: step on a bug.

lol

[keen ginkgo]

I didnt find the wait to be bad tbh

But I also knew about it ahead of time, lol

[feral hemlock]

just go touch grass while things mature

:D

[keen ginkgo]

And settlements got me used to doing multiple things while stuff is going on in the background

[maiden badge]

people may've touched some of the farthest stars here, but damn right no one else's going after the farthest glass and shadow stars but me.

[feral hemlock]

i forgot how you even reach shadow ones

[maiden badge]

by reaching their counterpart glass stars.

[maiden badge]

if you keep this with you, you can see the solar system index glyphs. that needs to be , and you can put the rest of the region's glyphs in to reach that region's glass (and by extent, also shadow) star

[feral hemlock]

i wonder if that community grave planet is still functional

or if it has been surpassed by just beating the story

[maiden badge]

lmao true

[cloud schooner]

Community grave planet?

[oak orchid]

Yeah. 4th village just finished. Dogshit too. Needs 30h to finish anything

I guess you need primarily Gek settlements. the rest are pretty useless

[feral hemlock]

[jaunty nimbus]

what part about "kiosks dont work" did you miss?

[tepid flint]

Idk what ur referring to when u say kiosks

And how do they not work

[jaunty nimbus]

really?
"A kiosk is a small, freestanding structure, often found in public places like shopping malls or airports, that can sell goods, provide information, or offer self-service technology"

[tepid flint]

Bro u could be referring to the galactic trade terminal

Or the nexus or something

Plenty of "kiosks" around

[jaunty nimbus]

you literally said" terminal"

[tepid flint]

Because thats what it's called

But it is also a kiosk

As it can sell goods

[jaunty nimbus]

its not free standing, it is a console on the wall.

[jovial cipher]

My Apologies.

[feral hemlock]

then you just make it yourself

[tepid flint]

That is irrelevant

@sleek quest @queen arch thanks

Just wait for a bug

[sleek quest]

Name of my New corvette

[narrow vigil]

Me.. sad I don't get my daily Moog shadow star recap 😭

[maiden badge]

google nms shadow star/nms glass star. I made a full ass vid but I'm not linking it here because it would count as advertising

[hardy tendon]

I apmkst grilled the fish of Arcadia in the oven-

[next nimbus]

so it's just a hard-to-get-to system because you can't warp to it?

[maiden badge]

they look like regular stars, so more likely than not people pass through them but just don't know they're shadow stars

[next nimbus]

ok, so I guess I misread and it's the opposite... You can warp but not portal to it...

[maiden badge]

that would be glass stars.

by getting a region's glyphs and putting 3E8 () as the second, third, and fourth glyphs, you can reach a system that shows up as the shadow star on the map but is a completely different system altogether

[next nimbus]

so that means shadow stars have no portals in-system?

[maiden badge]

they do. you just can't use a portal from elsewhere to appear at them

[next nimbus]

how does that work? Portal address doesn't work?

[maiden badge]

from here, note how the portal address is constructed

since WP2 (and with purple systems unlocked, a needed prerequisite), every region has a star with SolarSystemIndex 3E8

[jaunty frost]

Yo how are you guys enjoying the breach update

[next nimbus]

the bugfixes are great

and new non-aeron corvette parts are great

[maiden badge]

for shadow stars, it's just that one star per region has an invalid id for the portal code

[jaunty frost]

Do you guys think we'll get living corvettes

[next nimbus]

ok, that makes sense, thanks

[inland root]

does anyone know a way to get the SSV Normandy i started recently and i saw that ship was a event prize back a few years ago

[next nimbus]

I'd rather get moving parts (more than just landing gear and rotating shields)

[next nimbus]

Wait for a redux expedition or game save editing

[inland root]

whats a redux expedition?

[next nimbus]

When they rerun an old expedition

[sleek quest]

It's a frigate you cannot pilot, available in Beachhead exped, which was rerun(redux) last year on Ass Affect day

[inland root]

do you know what the chance of that happening is?

[next nimbus]

which happens around this time of year

[inland root]

hmm so there is a chance

good to know

[sleek quest]

Not for beachhead

But for expeditions released this year so far

Hang on lemme see

Okay there is a chance

[jaunty frost]

What if we could fly freighters like normal ships

I'm trying to get the glyphs naturally, but it's taking for-ev-er 🙂

[maiden moth]

You can already make one by using decoration part

[desert sun]

I doubt it

[maiden badge]

damn. someone took a shadow star. rip Beta Minoris Nawa Umbra, the system that never was. I still took its glass star but still

[next nimbus]

how does warp fuel usage work?

[stone furnace]

Dude this game gets so much more fun when you can use 3 input refineries

[next nimbus]

how so

[noble merlin]

What can you make

[stone furnace]

Like every metal that you can make into chromatic metal

you can make more if it by combining that metal with chromatic metal

[keen ginkgo]

Pretty much any basic material in the game, as well as numerous crafting recipes for cheaper and without needing to unlock the recipe

[stone furnace]

and you can make 30 chromatic metal from a single piece of Quartzite gold and silver

[keen ginkgo]

Yup

And making alloys via refiner essentially lets you transmute various materials to silver or gold

[next nimbus]

You can't refine a cake though

That's nutrient processor, silly

I have no way of knowing without checking but I wouldn't be surprised if there were some way to loop resources infinitely

[keen ginkgo]

There almost is

Ive been trying to figure it out

[true elm]

I wonder how many expeditions will be repeated this New Year

[queen arch]

At least the last four of them

[keen ginkgo]

The bottleneck seems to be oxygen, when it comes to an infinite loop

[true elm]

Well, in any case, I only need to go through 18 and 19

[next nimbus]

If we completed 19 (for example), can we do a 19 redux?

[keen ginkgo]

Yeah

Completing it wont change that you already unlocked the expedition rewards, but replaying it can let you get milestone rewards again

[next nimbus]

Ooh, then I may have a chance to right the mistakes I made with 20 🙂

[maiden badge]

someone needs to make a site like the nms galactic atlas where you input glyphs and it shows your relative location in a galaxy, but with this

[next nimbus]

Today I learned the Korvax word for Vy'keen

[keen ginkgo]

Ok so I havent properly gotten it working, but theres something like that, at least for euclid

[keen ginkgo]

Its the pilgrims progress or something like that, using coordinate locations relative to the pilgrim star to find a good route through the galaxy

[queen arch]

yeah but that site is ancient and doesn't show everything very well

it would be cool to have a map that can be moved around to see everything relative to each other, possibly even in 3D

like the in-game one but you could move 50x as fast and see important stuff from an endless distance

maybe even see a big heatmap of documented regions

[keen ginkgo]

Yeah, proper galactic navigation is something nms really needs

[maiden badge]

is that a different star than the pilgrim star that has Dudenbeaumodeme, a planet someone fully walked around

[keen ginkgo]

Pretty sure its the same one

At least, the current version of that planet

[next nimbus]

How does taking a qs mission from the mission computer work? It says I can't teleport without starting the mission, but I pressed the button to start the mission already?

[keen ginkgo]

Did you fully initialize?

[next nimbus]

I don't think I know how

[keen ginkgo]

Its a two step thing

[maiden badge]

I wouldn't even care if it's an honest-to-Atlas pizzabox galaxy instead of smoke and mirrors. I just want an interactive map of the entire thing

[keen ginkgo]

Selecting the mission and readying still needs you to begin the mission

Its that way to allow other players (such as friends/group members) to join you

[keen ginkgo]

There is a slight problem with that, tbh

[maiden badge]

take something with the interactability and navigability of programs like SpaceEngine and Celestia, where you can go up to any catalogued star just like that, and apply it to NMS

[keen ginkgo]

The nms galaxies are just stupidly big

[next nimbus]

How do I "begin" the mission? Is there a button somewhere?

[keen ginkgo]

In the computer

I may have gotten the terms crossed, I think initialize opens up the mission, then start actually starts it

[next nimbus]

I selected the begin mission button after readying (just like I'd do on the Anomaly)

[keen ginkgo]

Hmm

[jaunty nimbus]

3 down..

[keen ginkgo]

Eh, skydive

A lot of missions take you to buildings where the teleporter doesnt like to work anyway

[maiden badge]

not every star needs to be named on the map. just ones you've been to, and maybe some stuff like marking them. grids could be sorted by region (which is still huge, but less so)

[jaunty nimbus]

so many time that shit said blocked, so i dropped down and its just there with nothing around it and i can use it to go back....

[keen ginkgo]

On a scale bigger than the local several regions, it would just be... basically like the elite dangerous galaxy map

[maiden badge]

exactly

[keen ginkgo]

The one that shows exploration progress

Zooming in and out would be nice for sure

[keen ginkgo]

Dang game just needs to keep like 2-10 star system positions visible so I know where the heck things ate

My attempts at galactic navigation result in me squinting to find the highlighted paths from my location, and aligning them in various ways to the center

[maiden badge]

and we wouldn't have to pull tactics like this if.... we just had a map map

[manic flame]

Yea that's something that annoys me a bit, for some reason the paths get more and more transparent the further away from you they are even if you're following it in the map, so even if you can warp a bajillion lightyears away, you still can't stay on the line reliably.

[keen ginkgo]

Oh thats not what I mean, lol

[maiden badge]

maybe there's a tech you install to see the entire galaxy. maybe the atlas grants it to you after a certain mission. maybe it's just always there. I dunno.

[keen ginkgo]

I mean using the lines as a relative location indicator

[manic flame]

fair

That issue is effectively solved in the late game anyways by having super buffed warp drives so the lines become irrelevant anyways lol

[keen ginkgo]

That ends up being my problem, actually

Because I lose track of where the heck my "core bubble" is

[manic flame]

Oh yea there is

absolutely zero hope of keeping track of your cluster.

[next nimbus]

Is there any reason to visit the drop pods after your exosuit is fully upgraded? Other than as a form of shelter, that is?

[keen ginkgo]

-kzzt- yes

You'll find out later

[timber haven]

At this point I wonder how many systems I have explored that I will never find again...
Some main spots i have a base at and only warped to very close by stars

[next nimbus]

So I should just keep visiting them, or do I wait for this thing later

[maiden badge]

that's why you store coords in wonders, or a doc. just somewhere

[keen ginkgo]

Wait have you met the autophage?

[timber haven]

Other times took a black hole somewhere random.

[zealous mist]

been waiting for this fabled lilac squid ship for like an hour now

[manic flame]

black holes are fun

[next nimbus]

Nope, that's all spoiler territory... I just want to know if I should keep going after these things right now after my suit is maxxed out

[keen ginkgo]

Ok, yeah they wont be much use for you

[manic flame]

sometimes I just run up to a portal and just press random buttons and see where I end up lol

[next nimbus]

Ok got it... My pattern was to hunt a few of them after warping as I scanned planet fauna, etc., but now my suit is maxxed out

[timber haven]

Been storing portal addresses and screens of where I found sentinel ships in an old discord server i had so I can come back to them later.

[keen ginkgo]

Hmm, now I have an idea

[keen ginkgo]

Moog, the phantom stars still have portals, right?

[maiden badge]

technically, but again those are all the atlas transport errors since they go unused and you're not supposed to reach them

[next nimbus]

Is there any reason to mine asteroids by hand?

[manic flame]

consider 16 14 6 10 9 8 5 6 10 16 15 2 for no particular reason.

[keen ginkgo]

What happens if you dial an address from a phantom star, and then try to go back through

Not to the phantom star

[keen ginkgo]

Not that I've seen yet

[next nimbus]

I thought maybe I'd get different stuff from them, but it seems to be the same old same old 🙂

[maiden badge]

can't test this minute. I only have one phantom star with a base, and I'm preoccupied with reaching the glass stars at the extreme coordinates of Rewmanawa

[keen ginkgo]

I plan to try the nutrient injestor food buff for resources gathered to see if that gives more, but it might not be the case

[maiden badge]

you could probe in questions, on the off chance some phantom star expert is there or something

[keen ginkgo]

I mostly wonder because it could be a way to technically travel to one via portal

Though idk if you could bring others to it

[next nimbus]

I'm trying to find a nice planet to be my home that is not populated with other people's bases and doesn't have so many random electrical storms and such. This is proving to be rather difficult 🙂

[maiden badge]

there's always being friends with someone who can save edit to them, and joining their session.

from there, you can get to more with emergency warp

[manic flame]

define nice planet.

[tacit cliff]

Inxi you're looking for a quiet paradise planet in other words

I happen to be the sole inhabitant of a paradise moon and don't mind neighbors if that's to your liking. Literally perfect weather and it's a grassland style.

[manic flame]

I've got something similar.
I alright have one neighbor in my cluster, I wouldn't mind more lol.

[keen ginkgo]

The first place to start looking is systems you first encountered

[compact plover]

My planet is a bountiful one, large, the storms are nonexistent (I've had one in like a week?) and it has scrap. Nobody on it but me

[maiden badge]

get anywhere outside of galaxies like Euclid or Eissentam, then go up or down a bit from the noob belt, forward or back. no one will find you

[keen ginkgo]

Honestly, up and down in general will probably result in you finding plenty of new stuff, lol

[jaunty frost]

Did they add more music in the newer updates?

[tulip oar]

good morning

[naive mist]

Meow meow

[magic gull]

sorry i was sleeping, i found a nice system to settle down for the meantime anyways but thx for the offer

[unique void]

uhh

so

what do i do if my ships launch systems are damaged and i cant find it?

[pearl sable]

If i build a overseer and weapons etc up in my frieghter will the npcs be there already or will i need to hire new ones

[grim vapor]

So I take it you can't change the color of your space ships?

[zealous mist]

not unless its a corvette

[pearl sable]

Or you buidl your own

[lyric thunder]

Imagine building your own Starship.
Couldn't be me

[pearl sable]

Requires you to buy a ship core and have the parts from extracting ship components. There you can color the starship

[zealous mist]

i've been waiting ages for a squid ship to appear

[grim vapor]

Well I found something and sold it now I have tons of units. LOL jumped from 8,000,000 to 600,000,000

Time to build something

[lyric thunder]

600m is enough to build you a comfortable Corvette

[zealous mist]

i have a corvette with a house on it

[unique void]

errr

[lyric thunder]

Now that sounds comfortable

[grim vapor]

Hmm anyone got some good pictures I could look at for the corvette?

[harsh whale]

i cant find any corvette pieces can anyone explain how to get them?

[lyric thunder]

I wish I was home, champ.
I wanna show my beaut off

[grim vapor]

I think you have to buy most of them

[tacit cliff]

600m to build a corvette? Seriously? I just farm scrap.

[pearl sable]

My statis farm starts producing tonight. Gonna be rolling in money

[harsh whale]

I already bought plenty but i cant find the scrap

[tacit cliff]

Looking for a planet with "Salvageable Scrap" in the resources bar

[grim vapor]

No I just found 600M LOL

[harsh whale]

thats what i did i looked at tutorials but i still cant find anything

[narrow vigil]

Also when you find a place to farm and you land look at the infographic to the left. It's resource metric.

If it says scares or has few resources don't even bother. You'll be hopping between large areas of land looking for scrap. Find a different planet

[grim vapor]

So that is where you can find parts for the Corvette?

[narrow vigil]

You can't see it's resource potential just scanning it from space. You actually have to land to find out

[harsh whale]

oh so thats what it means

[narrow vigil]

Yeah

[desert sun]

Yes

[tacit cliff]

@grim vapor Any planet with Salvageable scrap or you can buy basic parts at any corvette workshop terminal in a space station

[lyric thunder]

I had a specific idea in my mind, and wanted to build something as close to it as possible.

The F-22 Raptor is my favorite Plane. So I built something similar to it. Then I altered the design till it was original

[grim vapor]

OK time to go a hunting LOL

[narrow vigil]

The better the resource potential the more lootable items you'll see spread out

[lyric thunder]

YEEYEE level up

[tacit cliff]

Also I can just invite people to a group and meet up in the Anomaly to bus people over

[lyric thunder]

😄

[tacit cliff]

The system also has a nice grassy paradise moon with literally no issues

[lyric thunder]

I got tons of Salvagable Scrap.
When I get home, I can drop you some

[keen ginkgo]

Huh?

[tacit cliff]

Well I got probably another ten or so hours of hunting various scrap containers until I'll feel ready to build my vette'

[wispy heart]

if you already got npc's then upon first use they will teleport

[keen ginkgo]

Ohhh, the terminals

[wispy heart]

yes those, forgot the word

Does the survival mode of NMS have like food and water resource requirements?

[maiden badge]

ok that's all the extreme points done. my favorite systems out of these are Alpha Majoris Nawa Glass and Beta Majoris Nawa Umbra so imma scope them out

[cunning iris]

• stacks for resources are decreased;
• you take more damage.
  There's more, but overall you can understand it as a more unforgiving game.

[signal idol]

Oop

[pearl ether]

Yet you're immortal squared!

Sounded better before I reread your name

Oops

[cunning iris]

Tried to make some friends in the weekend mission system...

...they all shot me.

[cloud schooner]

Rude

[cunning iris]

Rude indeed.

I think they didn't like being observed, but nah. You don't shoot someone just because of that

[sleek condor]

"jarvis , lock all torpedos on that corvette"

[cunning iris]

I didn't even get the honour of torpedoes -- everyone used... photon cannon...

[sleek condor]

do you have pvp on?

[cunning iris]

No, lol.

[sleek condor]

i should do the mission , in my dreadnaught

ill prob get shot at

[cunning iris]

Seems to be the common reaction

[smoky jasper]

planet hopping in the micro vette. i think its my new daily driver, its just so damn convenient

[tribal mortar]

What a cutie

Could use some exterior decorations, to liven it up

[broken oxide]

I can't believe how much of a technical disatster this game is!
WHY aren't they fixing those issues that have been in the game for a long time???

I forgot how much i liked to play this

[maiden badge]

man I misread ploki as plok! and thought someone else knew

[white bluff]

I can't get over the waves in the Mac version... Oy.

[cunning iris]

I'm still intrigued. Why only on Mac?... 😆
This makes zero sense.

[minor willow]

Holy hell, space legs

[minor willow]

Is that good
Or bad

[dreamy kayak]

maybe it's the 5k retina display

[minor willow]

Last version i played (mac) was less than stellar

[cursive zenith]

Which Mac though

[minor willow]

Sorry to disappoint

[cunning iris]

It's a bug. Parking your corvette over water is quite annoying

[dreamy kayak]

I used a G3 tower Mac and I couldn't even get nms to work

[minor willow]

M1 pro, but i haven’t played for a year so it looks a bit different now

[dreamy kayak]

joking btw

[cursive zenith]

Idk my m3 air runs it like a champ

[dreamy kayak]

m1 ain't the greatest

I know I got onen

luckily I use it for music instead

[tulip oar]

[pearl ether]

Tron: the Musical

Looks like sheet music being laid down by a lightcycle

[cursive zenith]

Isn’t tron the musical just legacy

[cunning iris]

Nah, it only shows its limitations for me in NMS. And even so... I'm amazed by what it can do to be honest.
Image processing etc. works flawlessly.

[pearl ether]

True!

[cunning iris]

Can't wait to see how the game will run on M5

[cursive zenith]

I miss DP 💔

[pearl ether]

I have no interest in seeing Ares.

[minor willow]

M1 Pro (the more cores version)

Works fine at 1200p

[cursive zenith]

Btw are they going to release an ipadOS version considering macOS and ipadOS architectures are the same

[minor willow]

1920x1200

Around 90fps

Also space legs now? 🥹🥹🥹

[cunning iris]

Hmm, will have to spoiler this for caution.
||Some indications that the game could come for mobile devices (iPad or even iPhone) were datamined many months ago; yep, it can happen in the future.||

[cursive zenith]

Yh i heard about that, i hope its soon bc my new iPad is unironically stronger than my Mac

[minor willow]

Not when it thermal
Throttles

[cursive zenith]

Apple after giving their strongest devices their most fried OS

[white bluff]

I think bad. Also, on my Mac with its odd LG DualUp screen (2880x2560) the game starts off at 300x400 res and the highest it will offer me is 936x832. Powerful system, but not so playable like that. But, it's an oddball, nearly square display and that has got to be VERY LOW on HG's list (though I did just report the issue with screenshots). Last I tried it was 2 years ago on this computer -- it's the same today as it was then.

[minor willow]

Ouch

I wish i could use my gunfighters tho 🫩

[dreamy kayak]

i like the apple OS... it's not bad, I prefer it to windows.... Thanks to steam, we don't have to pick windows anymore.. but I use windows for gaming currently, but I don't trust windows to do anything else but that

I do most of my main stuff on linux

music on mac

[pearl ether]

Sweet! Did you pass the mistletoe slow enough to make it count? 😎

[cunning iris]

...that's some decent parking.

Not easy to do.

[cursive zenith]

I used to use windows begrudgingly until GPTK became actually good, now i just use my Mac for everything with GPTK for gaming

[minor willow]

Anyway to hack joystick in on mac?

[cursive zenith]

? Controller is supported

[white bluff]

I built a Windows 10 gaming PC for NMS and have been playing on it 99% of the time for NMS since. (I upgraded its hardware back in 2022, as well.)

[minor willow]

Steam has issues with my vkb on mac

Idk why

[tulip oar]

whuh

[cunning iris]

Support was added in the last patch I think, no?

Oh, joystick... nevermind.

[minor willow]

wait really!

I need to try it then nice

[cunning iris]

I know they added for controllers

[white bluff]

With a proper gaming screen (144Hz, 34-inch, curved)

[pearl ether]

Wheauuuae?

[minor willow]

Yeaaa stick

Ooooh. Corvette waves. I see now.

[cunning iris]

Ok, perhaps I was a bit too optimistic lol.
This is what the patch notes for 6.10 say:

Enabled Steam Input on Mac.

...a bit vague I guess...

[minor willow]

Hmmm that might be enough

It works for everspace

[cunning iris]

Yeah, worth a shot

[minor willow]

Ok corvette wave bug is insane

That’s a wave in the background

[white bluff]

I wish they'd wash the Titan windows.

They're not really windows, how dirty they are.

[tribal mortar]

Did the phase beam glitch get patched out
I've been away for some time

[shell laurel]

Is this the channel to ask questions about a mission?

[white bluff]

God, that localized particle cloud storm effect that surrounds the ship really kills screenshots.

[tribal mortar]

Doesn't look like it actually

[cunning iris]

Nope, not fixed. This is one of those that can stay for years lol.

[tribal mortar]

I guess I now know what my next corvette build is gonna be with all the new parts....

[plush shard]

Didn't they just buff Phase beam damage for corvette's? I've seen videos on youtube about it

[cunning iris]

It was probably an unintended consequence of a fix for weapons that weren't firing properly

[white bluff]

Oh what is the weekend QS mission?

[sudden canopy]

Photon canon ftw

[cunning iris]

Deliver activated indium (regardless of what Nexus says lol).

[white bluff]

hah

hm

[graceful fable]

I love this game

[cursive zenith]

That’s no mountain

[minor willow]

No shit 🥹

[patent parcel]

does the taxi service still exist in this server?

I just wanna get a lift to a nice planet that isnt going to kill me

[tribal mortar]

Given the stuff that causes the bug
They'd probably need to hard code the phase beam to behave differently from the other weapons

[cursive zenith]

Imagine you are just chilling on a beachside minding your own business, when a minimum size corvette creates a localized tsunami and destroys your entire town

[tulip oar]

not in this server, they have their own server

[smoky jasper]

my pet is bigger than my corvette lol

[minor willow]

Oof i have 3 expeditions to finish this december

17-19

[cursive zenith]

I have everything but the most recent one its actually so over

[plush shard]

Screenshot from PC/steam? steam HDR / lossless option enabled? , Anti-aliasing setting? do you use the photomode click or use steam f12 to capture. there is definitely some particle diffusion and blur on things like the rockhoppers and mag landing thrusters.

[minor willow]

Gotta try steam controller support and joysticks

[plush shard]

nah i'll stick to keyboard and mouse

[white bluff]

I'm talking about that big haze of red dots out front of the ship. Steam PC. That's HG's "weather effect" when storms come in. It ruins screenshots.

3rd person shots of the ship in a storm, that is.

[grim vapor]

Can someone explain what you do with the orbs that you get from atlas?

[plush shard]

yeah i hate that effect on incandescent planets and while it's semi realistic, i avoid them if i can

[narrow vigil]

They're mostly just used to move along the atlas path. But two of the last items that you received from the atlas path in your tech slots will increase your health cores

[grim vapor]

But what do you do with the orbs? I got 3 now and have not used any.

[tulip oar]

meow meow

[blazing gale]

HOW CAN i see which construction need attentiuon? i dont have any icons on map

do ineed to check evbery builiding by menu ?...

[narrow vigil]

You just use one to craft the next one. And then use that to help craft the next one. Until finally you get to the final recipes.

[jaunty nimbus]

whatever the last building that was in progress or go in camera mode and see what building has walls around it

[blazing gale]

but im upgrading

not buldign new

i think there is no walls

[solemn panther]

Is there a Switch controls preset on the Deck?

(For NMS)

[blazing gale]

i dont kn ow what building was last thats the problem XD

no walls anywhere i check from up

[jaunty nimbus]

it doesnt matter, it only lets you work on one task at a time. there is another building that you have either in construction mode or waiting to be opened after

[blazing gale]

i know that

[jaunty nimbus]

put a screenshot

[blazing gale]

but idk which one.. there is no indicators or walls

ok im blind my bad

😄

u were right there are walls

and there is green icon above computer

next to build.

[grim vapor]

ROFL now I have a minotaur and a drone following me LOL

[cunning iris]

Only the quad missing.

[keen ginkgo]

I wish the quad was faster as a companion

[cunning iris]

Yep, I don't use it too much...

Merchant Anof has an important message

[modern hamlet]

Anybody got cords’ for a portal in hilbert D.?

[maiden badge]

that's a whole other galaxy you'll need a taxi

[modern hamlet]

I’m here just need a portal in it

[lethal adder]

How would the cords help you find a portal if you dont have a portal to use the cords?!?

[brave fossil]

Np, though I didn't discover those. Seems I've only made them a bit more well known

[modern hamlet]

I meant the planet, yeah I guess that doesn’t make sense. Just trying to find one to build a base at but the search continues

[maiden badge]

I've been hitting them up like mad

even the glass system of delta majoris hilbert umbra. I got that too

[modern hamlet]

Monolith doesn’t seem to give me portals. Is that normal?

[lethal adder]

Scan for a monolith (use planetary map or exocraft) answer the question, give item and it sends you to portal

[cunning iris]

• buy alien charts
• look for monoliths
• solve their little puzzle / answer the question correctly
• interact with them again
• get the location of a portal

[modern hamlet]

Yup that’s what I’m doing

[lethal adder]

Are you interacting again after solving it?

[brave fossil]

I wonder if the glass systems of the galactic hub have been discovered yet. I'm too polite to check, I don't want to take the discovery away if they haven't

[maiden badge]

you have the knowledge too, what I'd do is go up to civs and ask them if they discovered them yet before sliding in

[modern hamlet]

I am just nothing happens

[manic ravine]

here is why HG needs to add base elevators

of why i hate ladders

[cunning iris]

Possibly you didn't answer their "question" correctly. Could that be the case? If so you gotta find a new one.

[manic ravine]

and why the fuck they the only reason to get up buildings?

why are they the only method of going up towers?

yes theres teleporters but those suck

those are a pain to set up

are we not supposed to actually build this high?

this thing is at least 200 floors

[plush shard]

MGS3 Snake eater song starts to play

[timber haven]

My patience ends at 3 ladder sections. That...Nope.

[maiden badge]

I can't think of a cool suffix for glass stars like how shadow stars are called "umbra", so I've just been calling them glass

[manic ravine]

i had to suffer thru that

for 15 mins just going up

[cunning iris]

Glass sounds great to be honest.

[plush shard]

You do it your self, yeah just you and and no one else

[maiden badge]

my whole scheme's been stuff like Alpha Majoris Nawa Glass, Down Nawa Glass, Gamma Rim Nawa Glass, etc. and then Umbra for the shadow stars

[cunning iris]

-# One of the greatest moments in game history

[manic ravine]

and??

[modern hamlet]

Does it need to be a certain type of system? (Korvax. Etc)

[manic ravine]

my point stands , add the goddamn elevators

[plush shard]

stop it? builder simpler?

[lethal adder]

Every planet has a portal

[maiden badge]

-# but not every planet can be reached via portal

[manic ravine]

what would be so hard about elevators for fucks sake

[modern hamlet]

Thank you!

[modern hamlet]

As in?

[maiden badge]

have you seen how janky the thunderbird landing bay is

[manic ravine]

yes

i dont care

[maiden badge]

shadow stars

that's another can of worms

[jaunty nimbus]

i was just watching your vid

[manic ravine]

had fun building that tho

all that matters

[plush shard]

considering that the engine stops rendering even my corvette cockpit interior when the hatch is open, i'm not too far away and can see it happen in realtime, i'd say a lot: There is a short range teleporter in the base game but i'm not even sure if that would work

[keen ginkgo]

I hope it's name gets properly swapped

[manic ravine]

then... buildings with prefab stairs in them?

idk

anything that isnt 2ft per second ladder

[maiden badge]

does it hit you as a different kind of landing bay, or is landing bay inaccurate compared to the big ramp that opens

[keen ginkgo]

Its the titan landing bay

[manic ravine]

a staircase would have taken 25% the time

[timber haven]

Im sure it will somehow bug and turn into the people yeeter 5k.

[manic ravine]

yeeter 5k?

oh, then what about like, door system that puts you at each floor without animation

[timber haven]

Get tossed into space or the center of the planet, weird stuff.

[manic ravine]

like a ui that select the floor, press on it , and ur there

[maiden badge]

hell yeah, spread the word of the glass stars

[keen ginkgo]

Teleporter

[manic ravine]

to go up that many floors ?

id need like , 400 of them

[keen ginkgo]

Do you need to access all 200?

[manic ravine]

if i want

[keen ginkgo]

Shoulda used the cube rooms

Those have the stairs

[manic ravine]

yep

damn

didnt think about that

[keen ginkgo]

Said stairs are kinda janky, but theyre stairs

[manic ravine]

just jetpacked the way up and spammed build

[plush shard]

is there no stair or elevator mod?

[manic ravine]

there is stairs but that requires a lot of parts and the building would end up looking like sht because theres a limit of construction

i mean it looks like shit already

[cunning iris]

...you convinced me to look for one in the region I'm in. 😅
I need to see what's this all about.

[manic ravine]

but worse

[keen ginkgo]

So for clarity, the interior of the "thunderbird" landing bay clearly matches the theme of the titan landing bay. Plus the "default corvette model" seen in ship holograms is made entirely out of (presumably) thunderbird parts

[manic ravine]

are the exterior ladders any faster?

[blazing gale]

is there more to the right? seems like its cut by resolution or something

[keen ginkgo]

Yes, one to the left as well

[manic ravine]

god imagine how tired somebody would be doing all that climbing

[blazing gale]

i see

[keen ginkgo]

Those two are the only things cut off

[cunning iris]

This bug comes and goes.

[blazing gale]

1 cut but is there more then this 1?

[manic ravine]

im surprised he could keep up a pace of any kind

[keen ginkgo]

No

[blazing gale]

o=\

[keen ginkgo]

Not on that side

[blazing gale]

ok thanks 🙂

[plush shard]

no such thing; I've tried that at least 10 times on my survival save and can never get the last octet to say 3E8; tried a half dozen times on my normal save and can't replicate the reddit instructions; without clearer instruction or video proof i don't think it possible

[keen ginkgo]

The other side has one

[blazing gale]

on other site i have bought 1 which is cut too

yea

[manic ravine]

no human being can climb a ladder thats 1,000 ft without fatigue taking them out

[keen ginkgo]

Then you should be good

[blazing gale]

ok ty

[keen ginkgo]

Oh yeah? Well what about....
dangit I havent actually played the game and forgot

[maiden badge]

last octet? it's your first 4 glyphs. also I do have video proof just search for videos of glass stars

[manic ravine]

well certainly i cannot

and im not even fat like

[maiden badge]

you want the SSS to be 3E8

[manic ravine]

yall say teleporters , but do you realize you have to probably make like 100 of those

those are finicky

too

[plush shard]

then how come the instructions say to check the last octect when portaling which it doesn't even say to do

[keen ginkgo]

Theyre also the most like simple elevator

[manic ravine]

but then again i need to look inward and ask myself, why did i build that thing again??

[keen ginkgo]

Two next to each other, one leads down, other leads up

[maiden badge]

alright, which reddit post is it

[keen ginkgo]

What would octet even refer to for coordinates? Theres 12 total

[manic ravine]

you guys ever look at your early bases and be like, "wow , this is shit"

[plush shard]

the one that Haunted pixel made and then came in and posted here

[manic ravine]

*goes to the base computer to delete the embarrassingly bad base

[keen ginkgo]

I would if the intention wasnt the literal bare minimum for my current save

[manic ravine]

to delete the literal eyesore

[keen ginkgo]

And my earliest bases from earlier saves dont exist anymore, probably

[plush shard]

Once you build enough endurance then 1000ft is pretty easy but you have to build up to that point first

[maiden badge]

ok, away from all that. all you have to do is get your region's glyphs, which are the 8 glyphs after the first 4. make the first 4 , then put in your region.

I skimmed through the post but otherwise did this, and it's only worked without fail

[manic ravine]

idk why people think elevators would glitch, tons of games have done them for decades

[hollow aurora]

E

Idk I made a flea corvette

I might replace the thunderbird cockpit with an ambassador one

[keen ginkgo]

As custom-built structures or static builds as a part of the environment?

[manic ravine]

i mean its not like your base has physics

[narrow vigil]

Snake would like a word 👀

[keen ginkgo]

Thats sorta the point of why elevators would be difficult

[manic ravine]

what a platform that goes up and down?

the ladders sorta are one , but slow as ass

[maiden badge]

I will feel accomplished if glass stars get their own faq or something in the future

[keen ginkgo]

The Titan "Thunderbird" landing bay already feels like youll be dropped below it if there are too many players

[tribal condor]

Hi I'm new! I got the game 3 days ago and have about 30 hours- loving jr so far :)

[keen ginkgo]

So far, though, I havent had issues with aside from difficulty initiating skydive mode

[manic ravine]

thats the worst

[plush shard]

nope, according to his reddit post and by his instructs it's 1 3 E 8 which according to this diagram he made it should be ; I can try it post expedition but if the instruction are wrong or made in haste they should be corrected

[manic ravine]

thunderbird thing is the worst

looks cool , is shit

[narrow vigil]

I partook in way too much of the NipNip in my life to begin to comprehend this

[keen ginkgo]

It works well enough for me, at least in my vette thats designed to be more function than form

[maiden badge]

@brave fossil

[foggy apex]

How do I make my freighter rooms look darker

[sage raptor]

hi people i have problems to claim the interceptor starship, the thing is that when i go to the coordinates of the ship the place exist but the ship is invisible like it's a invisible wall, can someone pls help me with this? sorry for my bad english also im new in the game

[manic ravine]

best part of low gravity planets , you dont even need ladders or stairs , just a tube

[maiden badge]

wait are you're doing this in the middle of an expedition?

[foggy apex]

I'm trying to aim for a pirate theme but I can't get the current parts dark enough

[maiden badge]

if you're doing the glyphs exactly right (also autocorrects to so both are valid), you need purple stars unlocked as well. that's a big prerequisite.

[manic ravine]

wait , geknip makes your jetpack better huh?

i didnt know that

after 400 hours

[brave fossil]

Yeah that's right, but I didn't make that diagram

[manic ravine]

💀

[keen ginkgo]

Does it? I may be confusing it with nipnip, but I remember it giving a mysterious "-100% to unknown" debuff

[smoky jasper]

you can change the color of the walls or use the colored lights from regular base building, or get a pirate dreadnought

[manic ravine]

i wish it made you see pretty colours

and change your fov

and give you fisheye lense view

[keen ginkgo]

I wonder if its random each time

[foggy apex]

Wait dreadoughts have different lighting in the bases?

[keen ginkgo]

If you get unlucky its like "-100% core health" lol

[manic ravine]

but then the game would need a higher rating for drug use

[smoky jasper]

lighting inside a dreadnought is red (but not in your build area just in the bridge and hangar)

[foggy apex]

It's the build area I'm sad about :c

[manic ravine]

so is geknip space weed or lsd

[plush shard]

I didn't see that stated so i'll have to try again once i get to that point; thanks for adding that as i was hoping to test something with this but i'll have to get futher in my saves then

[safe tendon]

Beans, it makes gek release gas

[manic ravine]

but thats somehow illegal

damn it must be killer

[foggy apex]

Currently I've been using Beyond base building to have the Computer rooms with the Autophage rooms on the inside

[keen ginkgo]

I mean, weed does that too

Just differently

[manic ravine]

if all it does is give the geks stomach ache , wtf is it banned in galaxy for

[maiden badge]

yeah you need purple stars unlocked in order to also go to the glass stars. that's a big thing.

[manic ravine]

excuse me but whats a glass star?

[keen ginkgo]

Somewhat more seriously, geknip likely makes the gek feel really good and therefore emit the feel good odors

[manic ravine]

*move to nms questions?

[plush shard]

it should have a thread here in my opinion

[maiden badge]

oh trust me glass stars are also news to bk lol

it needs a faq, assuming enough people can look into it and consistently document the behavior

[safe tendon]

Item description says that NipNip buds are often used to produce GekNip, maybe it has some other use that is harmful idk

Bc GekNip is not illigal

[jaunty nimbus]

thats done!

[minor willow]

Anyway to remove portable refiner in my corvette?!

[maiden badge]

remove it like you would a part since you can't pick it up

[minor willow]

Aaaah

Thanks

[narrow vigil]

Gek lotion.

I'm sure those dry planets get that leather skin pretty crusty

[manic ravine]

crispy gek

[narrow vigil]

Dried out gek looking like a Tibetian sherpa

[manic ravine]

gek on a stick

[keen ginkgo]

Tbh I never really thought of gek drying out

You'd think it would come up, lol

[manic ravine]

does gek taste like chicken

[narrow vigil]

I imagine wealthy gek have gek girls that follow them around slathering them with lotion as some sort of Ferengi-esque status symbol

[plush shard]

Do the Gek have gold pressed Gekatinum ?

[narrow vigil]

Korvax pressed Gekatinum*

Ftfy

[keen ginkgo]

Thinking about it... I remember a gek encounter where the gek was secreting an oily substance, that may have been for moisture

[tribal condor]

Can I quote this

[narrow vigil]

Those are NipNip sweats

I get those sometimes. Guilty

[keen ginkgo]

No, iirc it smelled really bad, and it wasnt secreting properly? The gek needed a certain type of material to eat in order to make the proper oil/scent

[narrow vigil]

Ew

[keen ginkgo]

What?

That's like saying "ew" at a korvax lubricating their body

[narrow vigil]

They are all about their smells and something tells me their stations smell really bad 😂

[keen ginkgo]

They wouldn't, unless theyre in a bad mood

[plush shard]

aren't Nanites technically || Korvax blood|| ?

[keen ginkgo]

Not quite

[plush shard]

i'll have to read more deeply the lore later

[keen ginkgo]

Where they come from feels slightly obvious after you learn, lol

[brisk badger]

Is it really that deep?

[merry moat]

may be a bit late to mention this, but I found a way to get a ton of nanites by cheesing the new expedition

[brisk badger]

Maybe I’m to use to rpgs cuz it doesn’t seem that deep to me

[keen ginkgo]

I can think of like 5 different secrets about the various species' histories that I guarantee most players dont even know

[brisk badger]

Drop one

[keen ginkgo]

Oh no I have to chose

[merry moat]

please tell

I am immensely curious

[keen ginkgo]

Pick a species

[merry moat]

I've been playing this game for years and there's still stuff I'm yet to learn

[merry moat]

Gek

[brisk badger]

This will be good

[keen ginkgo]

||The Gek First Spawn originally targeted their own species in search of perfection, eliminating what they called "lesser geks" in a genocidal quest for superiority||

[silver night]

I officially fell in love with this ocean... 🩷 Some adventure in it i just recorded --> https://youtu.be/9Di7JGhAK9E

[merry moat]

how "fun"

[brisk badger]

How’d you find out?

[keen ginkgo]

I believe it was a planetary archive? I cant remember specifically

[merry moat]

Autophage are funky, I love them

[brisk badger]

Ok that checks out

[keen ginkgo]

A lot of particularly juicy lore bits are hidden away in those things

[brisk badger]

I don’t read those

[keen ginkgo]

Like "oh god this changes my perspective of the whole species" kind of juicy

[brisk badger]

Well we already knew the gek are intergalactic Nazis so no change there

[merry moat]

they turned from Nazis to somewhat acceptable trademongers

[keen ginkgo]

Were and it was a regime, not a species characteristic

They practiced eugenics on their own people to create the monsters of the First Spawn

[merry moat]

I once gave a Vy'keen uranium and he said he was going to build a bomb
I was terrified lmao

[brisk badger]

Not a nuke?

[merry moat]

just a bomb

[brisk badger]

There should be a hard cover lore book for this game

[keen ginkgo]

If you want, I can share another piece of lore from one of the other races

[brisk badger]

Korvax

[keen ginkgo]

I may actually need to spoiler tag this one, lol

[merry moat]

ooh?

Im gonna use a spoiler tag for the korvax one too

||The Korvax are mentioned to be good at espionage in the main story, this extends to the point where they build shells covered in artificial flesh to take on the appearance of organic races. It is even possible to encounter some of these individuals||

Dangit I thought i was replying

[jaunty nimbus]

lol, i stuck every part i got on the ship so i dont have to port them to regular save in slots😆
also- did anyone else get 37 aeron pyramids?

[merry moat]

ooooooooooooooh

[keen ginkgo]

@brisk badger here

[merry moat]

that's great XD

I approve

[white bluff]

hmm

(not mine)

[brisk badger]

Now that is juicy. I never would have known

[plush shard]

I wonder if it's just to get pieces back from expedition 😂

[safe tendon]

Starborn Phoenix 🤌

[brisk badger]

I NEED that ship

[plush shard]

The Starborn gives me Wipeout racing game vibes

[merry moat]

has anyone ever wondered how many nanites they'd get if they sold 200 suspicious modules? cus I did that

[merry moat]

I NEED IT

[safe tendon]

You can't have it

It's mine

[merry moat]

D':

[safe tendon]

[maiden badge]

I have one

[merry moat]

it's sooooo good though...

[brisk badger]

DEAD MEN OWN NOTHING 0^0

[smoky jasper]

you can get it via mod or save editor

[brisk badger]

I can do neither. Xbox and all…

[woven steeple]

So I accidentally deleted my base where did all the items in my storage box go??

[smoky jasper]

make a friend on pc they can spawn it and give it to you

[merry moat]

how?

oh wait I'm on ps4

xd

[woven steeple]

Anyone??

[merry moat]

mods

[merry moat]

okay so

they stay in the storage box

rebuild it

and they'll be there

[brisk badger]

Make a friend? I’m both flatter and offended you think I can make friends

[merry moat]

think of storage boxes in this game as like an ender chest

[timber haven]

eyes the several stacks of 9999 uranium sitting in storage Were they paying well?

[quiet ingot]

My friend gave me a ship zero clue if it’s good

It says s class

[wanton ledge]

S is the best class

[quiet ingot]

Oh word

it’s a LOT smaller than his bruh I’m jealous

He made his corvette a minivan

[wanton ledge]

In descending order, S, A, B, C

[quiet ingot]

gotcha gotcha

[fallen latch]

Did any of you knew that NPC's can mine asteroids?

[wanton ledge]

Yeah, the amount of times ive accidentally hit one is extreme
