Make sure your hyperdrive is at 100% charge

[grand oar]

It is just made sure

[cosmic sage]

Hello does anyone want to play

I'm new

[keen ginkgo]

Ok I'm not sure what's going on, you may need to post some screenshots, lol

[grand oar]

Finally damn lol

[keen ginkgo]

Oh it worked?

[grand oar]

It’s so weird, I moved one of my control knobs and it jumped so strange lol

Thank you

[keen ginkgo]

You're welcome, I guess, lol

[grand oar]

Lol

[paper ibex]

Does anyone here know how to trigger a rescue dreadnought mission?

[keen ginkgo]

Wait like to claim a pirate dreadnaught?

Cause thats usually rescuing the civilian freighter from the dreadnaught

[paper ibex]

Yes

[keen ginkgo]

Step 1 is to own a freighter, step 2 is the same thing as getting any freighter fight to spawn, step 3 is warp to pirate system

[paper ibex]

I did warp to a pirate system. How many times am I supposed to warp until it triggers it?

[wise ravine]

5 warps, 3 hour cd

[paper ibex]

Ty

Do I have to be in my freighter in order to trigger that pirate freight rescue? And does it have to be in a pirate system or does it have to be in a normal system?

[wise ravine]

noooo, thatd be awful

[keen ginkgo]

You cannot be in a freighter if you want to trigger system warp events

[paper ibex]

Okay.

[keen ginkgo]

Thats one of the reasons I use my freighter to warp

[narrow vigil]

I think I see a Doots 👀

[paper ibex]

Same. I’ve been using it to only jump long distances, and then I would jump over to the nearest one right next to the pirate system and then use my fighter to jump over

[keen ginkgo]

I primarily use my freighter for jumping, which makes triggering those fights easy since ive usually built up plenty of time during play sessions, lol

[paper ibex]

And one more thing. Do I have to be in a pirate system in order to trigger the pirate freight rescue?

[keen ginkgo]

Not necessarily, its just more likely to happen

[paper ibex]

Should I also find a system that’s wealthy too? So it gives me the higher chances of it being an S class?

[keen ginkgo]

Pirate systems have a higher chance regardless

And they dont have economy ratings

[paper ibex]

Oh, okay. My b

[keen ginkgo]

Even when hunting for freighters other than pirate dreadnaughts, its best to search in pirate systems

[wise ravine]

its a good idea to make a restore point before pirate battle and scout the pirate systems within your reach for a ship type you might be interested in

dont see anything cool? just reload and try another system

[narrow vigil]

Now that's a badass fossil @vast umbra

Belongs on the cover of a metal album

[vast umbra]

Yes, I wanted to make a dragon lol

[narrow vigil]

Looks like a dragon to me

[zealous loom]

I heard the word dragon… Oh nice fossil

[dreamy kayak]

you're a dragon harry

[narrow vigil]

That's the flying proto gek I got with me

[vast umbra]

FLYING PROTOGEK????

[vast umbra]

Amazing

Another one to my collection

[marsh oracle]

Would anyone like to help build a space cabin for me? I'll pay for the services ofcourse

[drifting scroll]

WHY CANT I PLACE BASES ANYWHERE

IS THERE A BASE LIMIT OR WHAT

[keen ginkgo]

Let me guess, expedition?

[drifting scroll]

normal

[narrow vigil]

400 bass computers per save file but I doubt you hit that

[keen ginkgo]

Oh then if youve placed over 400 base computers or over like 21k base parts then you may have reached the limit

[drifting scroll]

i havent done that

[dreamy kayak]

when you have reached the limit, you have only begun the era of making multiple saves

[narrow vigil]

My God that's a massive proto gek

[vast umbra]

Yes, he is a big boye

[dreamy kayak]

here's my big boy

its like 3-4 stories tall

[glacial cave]

I'm loving this once human stolen assets story arc

[drifting scroll]

bro

HTERE IS NO BASES AROUND

[glacial cave]

is there a settlement

[drifting scroll]

no

[tall wraith]

they are in the ground o.o

[drifting scroll]

found the problem

[glacial cave]

@still sun xD
Someone found the site where Once Human apparently may have bought the NMS teleport receiver. Is this a new business model? Lets just rip all NMS models and sell them on random chinese 3D asset stores

dear lord

it literally has the connector and everything

[narrow vigil]

When developers don't care about their intellectual property and assets being used by third parties for profit this is what you get.

I understand HG doesn't like to charge for DLC and updates. Micro transactions and subscriptions. But they should be protecting their intellectual property from theft and infringement like this

[still sun]

Yep, came across this on Reddit and later twitter. Sean actually jokingly replied to this post saying that the teleporter model has horrible LODs so it's their loss, but that seems to have been done for the sake of the joke, and not in game

[glacial cave]

would've been silly if they actually forgot the lods and just now decided to fix them when this thing has been boiling

[tired bough]

Once human tried taking stuff from nms?

[glacial cave]

it did

[tired bough]

I just got a not on google

[narrow vigil]

Like the No Man's Sky service bot. Requiring patreon subscription to get many of the items

If this was a nintendo, Bethesda or EA game they wouldn't have been able to operate long before getting shut down.

[still sun]

I believe it's difficult to chase down their Devs though given the difficulties HG would have with legal representation in china. That's allegedly why Once Human's gotten away for stealing assets from other games too

[drifting scroll]

fuckin mod broke my base building

[tired bough]

Wow... how could anyone steal from my beloved cobalt mining Sim:[

[glacial cave]

the teleport receiver module was stolen and sold behind some paid battlepass store thingy on Once Human.

The irony when you rip something from such a customer friendly game only to paywall it behin the most predatory mechanisms ever

[narrow vigil]

True.

[drifting scroll]

:O

[paper ibex]

I just got a pirate dreadnought my first try! LFG!!!!!!

[drifting scroll]

IM GREEN

[keen ginkgo]

I kinda like the random explorer the expedition gave me

[tired bough]

Who

[drifting scroll]

a game mod

not the sigma moderators

im talking abt ingame mods like base building mods n stuff

[narrow vigil]

People didn't pay for that stuff and it wouldn't exist. But the fact there's a market for it means there will always be people willing to sell that stuff

[tired bough]

Ewwww

[narrow vigil]

Like scalpers. If people didn't pay higher prices for scalped electronics scalpers wouldn't be scalping electronics

[tired bough]

Oh

[glacial cave]

I get it that in china many games take strong inspiration from one another an personally find no issue in that. Every game ever has taken at least some inspiration from games before them. But straight up model rips is where morally and legally there needs to be a clear line

[paper ibex]

#nms-questions (I need this, don’t mind me)

[drifting scroll]

you thought i was talking about the nms game moderators didnt ya

[tired bough]

Yeah lol

[glacial cave]

XD

[tired bough]

Grrr Chinese

[glacial cave]

they're selling literally everything

wtf

I hate this

[narrow vigil]

What is this translate to in dollars about?

[glacial cave]

0,27

[still sun]

insipiration would be fine, but straight up stealing HG's assets is insane. Even the NMS-Archive doesn't store any of HG's copyrighted material (including models) for this reason

[north fog]

?????

[keen ginkgo]

It would be kinda funny if this issue were solved by once human and nms having like a crossover thing

[tired bough]

Like 2 dollers for 240 ¥

[glacial cave]

see images above for explanation

[north fog]

Oooh

[narrow vigil]

The shop makes me think somebody out there has a couple hundred dollars worth of assets built into a base.

[still sun]

Is this on some Chinese model hosting site? The fault might be on the uploader as opposed to Once Human then if they didn't realize it's an NMS asset

[glacial cave]

It's on a site yes

https://www.cgmodel.com/model/324200.html

I take no interest in providing it traffic but this site clearly hosts NMS models illegally

and steals

[narrow vigil]

Once Human knows exactly what they are doing. This is far from the first time somebody has used their site to profit off a game like this

[glacial cave]

could be that they simply buy them from storefronts like this one

I won't pass judgement without knowing all the nuances

but I do say this is highly morally debatable

[tired bough]

So whats gonna happen? Will nms sue or wut?

[glacial cave]

personally this site that sells NMS models should be nuked off the internet entirely

[tired bough]

And the person who owns it should be burned

[narrow vigil]

I mean when you have a dozen examples of them doing something like this before with other games it's kind of hard not to automatically assume that they're guilty again.

[glacial cave]

Sean and HG are a chill and very non-corporate studio most part. So they prolly just let this slide

[still sun]

I have 0 legal expertise so it's really hard to pass judgement of course, but similar conduct previously might indicate an "oops, we didn't realize" mentality?

As in, trying to push that as a reason for stealing assets

[tired bough]

They should sue even if they are chill

[glacial cave]

At some point there must be consequence. Third time of "oops, didn't realize" isn't enough of an excuse. It's a clear pattern of behavior

[narrow vigil]

Yeah but when your government is protecting you from any legal action it's easy to get away with it

Like they were never consequences for all those knock-off iPhones. They're still being sold

[still sun]

The most I've seen HG take legal action is for registering their copyrights and publishing their earnings tbf. I highly doubt HG have a legal team for cases like these, and probably don't want to devote resources to this case

[narrow vigil]

If Apple can't stop it HG can't either

[dreamy kayak]

that’s how i got kicked out of a discord hub base for having my companion poop on a nice floor

hes a good boy though

[narrow vigil]

More than likely HG would lose more money in legal costs and investigations trying to shut it down then it's worth

Is why companies generally don't do much to battle these knock offs and IP thefts

[still sun]

Agreed, but repeated offences without punishment might indicate some sort of loophole being exploited that keeps their Devs safe from paying up

[narrow vigil]

Yeah it's called your government making sure that another company's lawyers in another country can't touch you

[dreamy kayak]

“my-phones”

[glacial cave]

I find it odd that all of these NMS models have simply been sitting on the site for sale since 2020

and they continue to sit there

[still sun]

They'll likely stay up too, if Sean's response is anything to go by. Seems like the site itself doesn't vet IP infringements preemptively

[narrow vigil]

"our-phones" comrade

[wise ravine]

does settlement happiness have anything relevant behind it beyond "my wageslaves have positive thought bubbles"

[keen ginkgo]

This brings me of dual minds, because I think apple's model of exclusivity is stupid so serves them right, imo

[glacial cave]

well if we take in concideration HGs way of dealing with security and other things with their game, this way of letting assets being sold isn't too surprising. Still very weird to just let it happen

[narrow vigil]

Considering most corporations are switching to a model of exclusivity subscriptions and lack of compatibility with other platforms and products that's just business nowadays

[safe tendon]

Right

[keen ginkgo]

And said companies doing that should expect knockoff products and services in response to their stupid practices

[glacial cave]

ah yes, I love my "Next-generation sci-fi alien time wheel, futuristic time machine device, time shuttle. ALIEN RING"

the name is literally Next-generation sci-fi alien time wheel, futuristic time machine device, time shuttle.

[narrow vigil]

😂

[glacial cave]

boundary failure my beloved, what they done to you

[narrow vigil]

That's not to say it's not cool. It looks like one of those boundary rings and I would totally use it if we had it

But I wouldn't pay for it

[keen ginkgo]

It literally is one of the boundary rings

[glacial cave]

futuristic time machine device xD

[still sun]

I agree, HG have a very "well, we tried" approach to these things. I remember when I was working w/ others on reversing NMS' server structure, they never got back to our safe disclosure emails until one of us talked about release the information on twitter. Even then, all we got was a twitter DM from Iain Brown boiling down to "this would be bad for the game, please don't", rather than a threat

[glacial cave]

Science fiction unmanned communication aircraft, next-generation terminal space robot, spherical robot

dear lord what they done to comms station

[safe tendon]

Whether to take actions or not is up to Hello Games and from what I can see this discussion is diverging more and more from this channel's scope: No Man’s Sky the video game

[glacial cave]

unmanned communication aircraft

Shall we move it to modding since it conciders the models?

Just gotta laugh off the teleporter name and then I'm finished.

Next-generation sci-fi space teleportation device, high-tech teleporter, futuristic teleporter.

[still sun]

nms-legal-advice anyone? 😛

[violet forge]

Wsg

[supple wagon]

hi

[glacial cave]

wild-nms-spottings maybe? Could also bundle up other things that look like NMS

a wild nms has appeared. Just like the ppl on reddit finding knowledge stones etc. irl

[still sun]

i remember the subreddit having a similar tag iirc

[north fog]

Fun fact for switch 1 and 2 players (and maybe also steam deck, idk if it has touch screen)

When upgrading ships and stuff you can just go into handheld mode and tap the upgrade button

[still sun]

yep, that's probably the one haha

[north fog]

That way you don’t need to hold down a button on your controller repeatedly

[glacial cave]

wonder if the'll ever bring back the button to favorite other ppls bases again. It was removed like... a few days after being added. What was the update in June? I remember being able to favorite other ppls bases back then

[still sun]

it is a darn good one at that too, probably one of the better mediums for VGP

[glacial cave]

this was truly my favorite feature ever. Could use it right about now. Stumbled upon a very unique base at the cord hub

[safe tendon]

I don't think discussion about assets used in a different game or models sold on chinese websites is suited for modding channel.

Again, whether to take actions or not and if then what actions is up to Hello Games. I don't feel like anything good will come out of discussing it here, in an online chat room where it is unlikely anyone has proper knowledge to really speak on the topic.

[still sun]

Was it ever functional? I remember seeing it be removed but never really got to messing around with it

[violet forge]

Wsg

[still sun]

It'd be a neat feature though, having my friends' bases on speed dial would be a nicer way to join their game than going through the menu

[keen ginkgo]

You might have to favorite the base from a different teleporter?

[glacial cave]

Yeah it was. In my provided image above, I have other ppls bases favorited. I was really happy about this thing back in june but then a hotfix just yeeted it away.

There were some minor issues like the base not always loading instantly and needing another teleport travel to it in order for it to appear. But apart from that, it worked exactly like you'd expect it to

that's why I'm big sad and confusion that it just... isn't there anymore

[still sun]

I feel like making MP more in-tune w/ the existing game would go a long way for improving replayability. Corvettes are probably one of the coolest MP features we've had in a long time, and most of that stems from how natural and easy to use they are in that context.

[glacial cave]

corvettes really bring out the mp way more than any other feature in a long time. Last thing that brought such interconnectivity and shared feeling was the favorite button. And before that... the anomaly itself. Not much of those things being added really

and sad to see one of the good ones go

[still sun]

Ah speaking of giving up, do switch 1 players have corvettes yet? we're coming up to the corvette exclusive reruns soon, wonder if switch'll be left out again.

There's some unused strings in the current experimental (or newest public?) indicating that they're trying to cap overly complex corvettes in multiplayer specifically. Wonder if that might translate to a fix for getting corvettes to work on switch 1 eventually too

[dreamy kayak]

ok I think I got the body right now

just some slight tweaks

with the back side

[indigo mural]

Am i late for no mans sky?

[keen ginkgo]

Not even sure what that would mean, lol

[dreamy kayak]

i mean you aren’t late, but you aren’t on time either

[unkempt fjord]

I dont even have the game yet so if you are late, idek what I am

[indigo mural]

? Not in time, that is because i am late?

[dreamy kayak]

im gonna be real, i got no idea what you are talking about

[unkempt fjord]

I thought he meant he just got the game

[dreamy kayak]

its not the kind of game to be late for

in fact its better late

you get more stuff to do

[unkempt fjord]

Yeah I really want it cuz I saw the cool corvette builds

gotta wait for christmas 🤞

[dreamy kayak]

i started the game ten years ago roughly but id give it away to start over now

way cooler now than at release

[unkempt fjord]

DANG 10 YEARS!?!?

how dont you get bored?

[dreamy kayak]

i do sometimes

its ok i just play other games and come back

[keen ginkgo]

Sandbox also

[unkempt fjord]

yeah true

[dreamy kayak]

but i got about 3500 hours on steam alone

[unkempt fjord]

DANG

[dreamy kayak]

and i played xbox too

[unkempt fjord]

I really hope I get that much out of it once I get it

[dreamy kayak]

it will give you a lot of hours if you like sandbox stuff

[keen ginkgo]

I frequently see a thing some people have where they forget a game is a sandbox game and get frustrated/bored with it because of that

[unkempt fjord]

I love building stuff like in minecraft and stuff

[indigo mural]

Thats cool yeah, in the future are we still gonna be able to get old expeditions?

[keen ginkgo]

Well you will (eventually) love building in no mans sky!

[unkempt fjord]

haha

[north fog]

Maybe

We don’t know

We’re just players like you

[twin slate]

if I'm not mistaken there's a mod that allows you to play through them

[dreamy kayak]

basically you just play the main quest for now, you can go off on sandbox tangents during it, come back finish it

main thing is get that main quest done, but do it at your pace

its not a mmorpg, you don’t need to speed rush it

just explore fight have fun

[brisk shoal]

Honestly I play this game on and off, might not touch it for a while and then get super obsessed with it for a while, the game is just that good because you can pick up where you left off no matter how much time has passed

[keen ginkgo]

There is definitely new terrain generation in non-purple systems

Relics redux rendezvous 2 has the tube/root landforms I've seen in purple system planets

[wanton patrol]

Unfortunately my case

[keen ginkgo]

Unfortunately? The build system fascinates me! Its jank lets you make things that other build systems would refuse to allow, lol

[wanton patrol]

Well until you see my big ass base you will see why I hate it

So can the bone fauna have the appearance of any of the fossil parts?

[cerulean cliff]

Probably?

[golden wing]

found another chameleon planet lol. it has the perma-rain/mists weather, extreme storms, and aggressive sentinels

[naive mist]

No sadly. There is only 1 bone animal variant

[dreamy kayak]

what's a chameleon planet?

[golden wing]

has a color shift

[smoky plover]

Guys

[dreamy kayak]

ahh ok

[wise ravine]

man, Im on a spree of toxic armpit mushroom planets and barren planets. Boooooring

[golden wing]

basically your character/camera is surrounded by like 115u of "normal" then there is a small black/white band and then reversed color in the distance

[dreamy kayak]

is there a special name from the planet?

that you see?

[golden wing]

if u look in the photo the green grass fades to grey, then purple

[golden wing]

no you cant tell until you get into the atmosphere

[dreamy kayak]

ok

i wonder if Ive seen it before or not

[golden wing]

but i think it is only Lush planets

they are very rare

[vast umbra]

I don't like the monochrome planets

[golden wing]

on my last save i never found any after 200+ hours of exploring

but this save i've found 6-7

Euclid vs Eissentam

better chances in Eissentam since theres more Lush planets

[golden wing]

ya me either, those are only Mega Exotic biome luckily

[vast umbra]

I once found a planet where everything was grey and all light sources were red

you get paid in experience

[empty trench]

like an internship but without corporate recognition

i'm gonna put that on my resume

"discord moderator"

[tulip oar]

one of my frigates took damage when i was asleep 🙁

[silver night]

I've found a super glitchy moon, with so high water level you can fly into the water. 🙂

[empty trench]

i like the exploration expeditions

[silver night]

Fun feeling on perma...

[glacial cave]

Oo nice. Can you share coords?

[empty trench]

another ship took damage when i was sleeping

[wise ravine]

typical gas giant experience, just lacking the constant loud noise

[silver night]

Ofcourse. 🙂

[empty trench]

it's these two ship missions i send out

[glacial cave]

Also I wonder... has anyone tried to have a full instance of 32 people in a corvette flying around? Curious as to how much desync and other jankiness may appear.

Since you can tag along in a corvette without being in a group with the corvette owner

[empty trench]

i'm thinking i should send out a third ship even when two ships can do the trick

no this 2 ship expedition did fine

...what is a carrier AI fragment

[vale bronze]

Anyone had a problem with the switch loading the game today?

does anyone know why none of the space stations i go to appear in the teleportation terminal

[sharp raft]

some of them appear to be for Quicksilver yes sir

[tribal condor]

That's where I found ur mother

[vast umbra]

I could do some quicksilver missions

The letter cube

[vast umbra]

@sharp raft I don't think it's working

[sudden canopy]

Ya know, my S2 version seems to really not like this new expedition - 2 crashes in the last hour

[keen ginkgo]

Did you get out of your ship while in those stations?

[steady mango]

yes

[naive mist]

Its more like some kind of #1075798777060933672

[near bolt]

Guys I just discovered that those random derelict freighters you find in space are the same as the crashed ones on planets-

Just exit your corvette and "skydive" into that spot that looks like an exploded crater in the freighter, and you'll find the broken doors and a few cargo crates to collect, only you don't have to dig for it! Only issue, it doesn't show where they are on your scanner and it is incredibly dark so.. you'll just have to use your eyes 🫡

Idk who else didn't know this but I noticed this quite by accident today

[empty trench]

having to use my eyes is a travesty

i think i just made a giant blob monster

i'm going to do dreams of the deep now

while i wait for my freighter missions to refresh

[mint lintel]

My ship landed sideways

It does what it wants to do ig.

I kinda wish that initializing from the anomaly could also bring words learned

Theres unique dialog in this expedition but idk if im missing anything cool

[narrow vigil]

I've seen that request a few times over the years. And makes sense

[empty trench]

i think they made the nautlion faster underwater

[near bolt]

Maybe pin it somewhere cus I genuinely don't think many people have noticed this 😅

[keen ginkgo]

Quick note, not all of them have the crates

[near bolt]

Didn't know that.

Unless you're talking about the ones you need a signal receiver for, that's not it. I'm talking about the ones you encounter randomly and can't land on.

[keen ginkgo]

Yeah, those are what I mean

Its kinda like how they sometimes have cargo pods and sometimes dont

[white bluff]

That was the first ship I put in deep freeze when that feature landed. I like the Starborn Runner better - it's in color.

The Wipeout ship

[empty trench]

has anyone taken the nautlion into extremely deep oceans yet

[spice ether]

yes

[white bluff]

(Not mine - Starborn Runner inserted into Wipeout Pulse (or Fusion?) spec screen)

[plush shard]

I've gone 1400u deep during the expeditions; not sure if it gets much deeper without mods

[naive mist]

I got 1498.2

[empty trench]

oh my god the nautlion is so cool on the rough seas

[plush shard]

too bad first person driving sucks in most exocraft

[empty trench]

i don't do first person with exocraft

just with starships

[zealous loom]

yes.

[plush shard]

i mean that's also why i don't do first person with exocraft from experience

[zealous loom]

deep oceanic planets with no visibility

[empty trench]

how fast is the nautlion with boosters

[narrow vigil]

I got 3180u on my deepest water cause I fell through the terrain on a deep water world

Winner!

I think Moog had like 5-6k

[plush shard]

was it the only planet in the system?

[empty trench]

does the nautlion have a separate booster module you can put on it

[narrow vigil]

Don't think so

[empty trench]

can you cook with hypnotic eyes

[silver night]

I badly hate the Nautilon... I always dive in deep oceans. 🙂

[empty trench]

it's pretty fast and you just need cyto-phosphate and carbon to charge it

also you can use it to find stuff

[keen ginkgo]

Yes

Also the nautilon is great

When you get the upgrade modules for it, it goes really fast

[empty trench]

i think you also need engine upgrades for it to save on hydrothermal fuel cells

[silver night]

While i only need oxygen 🙂

[keen ginkgo]

Deep water drains that crazy fast

[silver night]

That high pressure tech helps with that lately.

[keen ginkgo]

Hasn't felt much like it to me

[empty trench]

there's a lot more stuff underwater than when i first did dreams of the deep

i love how the stock transfter terminals still work when buildings are submerged underwater

[keen ginkgo]

They work in abandoned systems too

[civic coyote]

anyone wanna get on a call and just play nms for fun

?

[shadow willow]

I would, but the game just crashed on me 4 times in a row on trying to enter my file for no reason. 😒

[civic coyote]

dang

that sucks

[hybrid pelican]

dude, i'm so fucking tired of my game running at 10-20 FPS whenever i get out of my ship, like dude. this game released 9 years ago, wtf

i've tried everything to fix it, repair game file, uninstall and reinstall, nothing works

[civic coyote]

thats never happened to me

it sounds annoying

[hybrid pelican]

cool, so just fuck me i guess

[glacial cave]

@sharp raft crashed. Coming back

[shadow willow]

I'll try reinstalling mine to see if I can get in this time.

[sharp raft]

roger that sir. Will wait for ya. Very curious to see how your corvettes are 🙂

[civic coyote]

thats a good idea

[civic coyote]

wtf

[glacial cave]

Very potato like

[civic coyote]

btw i havnt played for awhile

[desert sun]

How long is a while

[shut garden]

Seems stoopid, but I managed to get out of the crash cycle by taking my Switch 2 in handheld. Then I was able to immediately load my file. That was after at least 12 crashes in a row.

[civic coyote]

since the plush came out...

[safe tendon]

This game is being constantly worked on and updated. That includes upgrades to graphics and physics.

It 9 years ago and today might as well be two different games

[shadow willow]

The new corvette feature is an absolute blessing and I love it. You get to make your own ship, and pretty much make it as long and huge as you want! 😄

[civic coyote]

ik u can make custom ships but why do i see a glider in an update pic

[empty trench]

so do i just have to spam settlement maps until i find one that's profitable

or do i have to check on them every 30 minutes

[keen ginkgo]

Ha! No

[desert sun]

All you've missed is corvettes, the biggest thing since ever

They're amazing

[keen ginkgo]

You have to invest in settlements for them to turn a profit

[empty trench]

i'm investing

[civic coyote]

why is everyone talking about corvettes and wtf are they

[keen ginkgo]

Invest in production buildings, and upgrade them to b class

[shadow willow]

See my reply. 😅

[civic coyote]

k

[empty trench]

i have to check on them like every 30 minutes though

[civic coyote]

WHAT

[empty trench]

i'm going to do some trade loops i guess

[keen ginkgo]

You dont exactly have to

[civic coyote]

lol

i just want to get rid of the spiders and worms at my autophage settlement

[desert sun]

Ships you can build like a base

They're amazing

[civic coyote]

LIKE REALLY BIG?!

[keen ginkgo]

If youre referring to negative settlement traits, that will take a while

[empty trench]

one time i had a settlement that made a profit and it produced descented pheromone bottles

[shadow willow]

YESSS. Salvage, buy, or trade a wide range of multiple parts and assemble it into whatever shape you want as long it can fly and shoot. XD

[civic coyote]

almost done

downloading

[desert sun]

Not like freighter huge, at least not without mods, but like half a frigate

[empty trench]

i have a cyclotron corvette part

[civic coyote]

still pretty big

[desert sun]

Oh yes

[civic coyote]

is it worth not using a living ship tho?

[narrow vigil]

Corvettes are awesome

[empty trench]

the debt on my autophage settlement is 2.7 million and rising

[sharp raft]

oh sorry a mistell 🙂

[desert sun]

Imo yes

[desert sun]

Best looking cannon

[civic coyote]

lol

[empty trench]

you know what i'm going to roll the dice and pick up a third settlement

[keen ginkgo]

Yes, if you upgrade every production buildings to B class it should start working away the debt

[empty trench]

how do i upgrade the production buildings outside of the settlement requests

[narrow vigil]

38 settlements later.....

"I should have stuck with my second settlement"

[keen ginkgo]

Go to the building terminals

[empty trench]

what

[civic coyote]

lol

[shadow willow]

It'll keep rising until production is higher than maintenance, which will require paying attention to the choice thing, and upgrading or building new structures.

[keen ginkgo]

The same ones you provide materials to construct buildings at

[empty trench]

i can do that?

[keen ginkgo]

Yes

[empty trench]

they didn't explain that very well

[shadow willow]

Relatively easily. It just takes a lot of waiting, unfortunately.

[keen ginkgo]

Upgrading buildings is the actual way to get out of debt

[green mica]

anyone have some good methods to make money

[narrow vigil]

Selling Corvette parts and trade goods

Flipping ships when you got a good bankroll going

[green mica]

okay bet

[topaz jolt]

[topaz jolt]

I built one but it has no doors

💀

[empty trench]

i can only upgrade one building at a time

[topaz jolt]

Begging best method

[desert sun]

Get the blueprint from the anomaly

[topaz jolt]

For a door?😭

[shadow willow]

Yeah that's the kicker. The settlement feature forces you to play the waiting game.

[narrow vigil]

Trade routes. The star colors are the colors you see when you switch to the economy filter of the Galaxy map. Economy scanner required

[empty trench]

i'm going to go on a trading binge then

[desert sun]

Yup, personally I like the Holo door

[topaz jolt]

So is it more expensive? Holo door?

[empty trench]

hodor

[desert sun]

No it's like a force field

[keen ginkgo]

I dont get looking at it this way, because there's so much to do i find myself forgetting to finalize upgrades at settlements, lol

[narrow vigil]

Exactly

Me ..... Using a teleporter..... And ignoring my settlement is still under attack for the last 2 days

Forget they exist until I need frigate fuel

[topaz jolt]

Your base can get attacked?

[narrow vigil]

Settlements will

[shadow willow]

Reinstalled, tried again; FIFTH crash. Wtf. Why am I doing this again!? Is it Nvidia again??

[narrow vigil]

Either sentinels or brood queen

That would be a great feature. Your base can be attacked by sentinels. And the longer you ignore it the more stuff gets destroyed

[shadow willow]

I'd be very concerned about the side quest staff that I got still working there though. ._.

[empty trench]

what is the best ship weapon and why is it the positron ejector

[shadow willow]

SIXTH crash, Jesus Christ!!

[empty trench]

some of these freighters are absolutely massive

[narrow vigil]

Some sort of system issue conflicting with the load.

When is it crashing?

Is it when the game is loading up or when you're trying to load your save file?

[shadow willow]

It was Nvidia again. 😑

The DLSS being on was causing it to crash again, just like last time.

It's a cycle at this point, it works for a while, then it crashes the game, I check it later, it works again, and now it's crashing the game again

I really wish this game ran better without this super sampling crap.

[empty trench]

...i forgot to buy goods at the last station

thank goodness for teleporters

or i already solder them

no i think they jus disappeared from my inventory

NO THEY'RE IN MY FREIGHTER

[keen ginkgo]

Check all inventories

Yeah

[empty trench]

does the freighter have like a higher storage cap

[keen ginkgo]

Per slot? Yeah

[shadow willow]

I think I'll just stick with FSR2 from now on. Screw DLSS.

[wanton patrol]

@dire kestrel made me hate myself

[raw acorn]

does Expd Redux Relic has underwater submarine-ing?

[topaz jolt]

From which part of the anomaly😭

[empty trench]

so star brambles have terrible yields

[tribal condor]

Okay, after hundreds of hours exploring the game, it's my time to follow the path towards the centre of the galaxy.
Wish me luck.

I was wondering, though... what happens when you reach the center of the galaxy?
I didn't look it up to avoid spoilers, but can you just tell me if the game, continues, resets, send you to title screen?

[keen ginkgo]

Continue

[narrow vigil]

You wake up in a wooden horse drawn cart on your way to be executed

[halcyon tide]

You're finally awake

[tribal condor]

Hahahaha

The bad ending. Lol

[wanton patrol]

(VC 3 for ppl who wanna join me) so.. is 1000 void eggs too little?

[keen ginkgo]

Little?

[frigid saddle]

If you gotta ask, yes

[cerulean cliff]

doing what? lol

[narrow vigil]

MOAR eggs

[empty trench]

when i first started playing nms i thought the distance to the center of the galaxy was 70,000 ly

[wanton patrol]

Anything and everything

[wanton patrol]

Bet so is 3k too little?

[empty trench]

i checked a few years later and it's apparently 700,000 ly

[empty trench]

what are you doing with every void egg

[wanton patrol]

smoking hoarding

[keen ginkgo]

Ah yes, the common problem of memory/estimations being off by a factor of 10

[frigid saddle]

Although in nms it feels closer to being off by 10 orders of magnitude

[keen ginkgo]

Funny, because its "just" being off by 1 order of magnitude

[wanton patrol]

@empty trench are you doing expedition?

[topaz jolt]

Can someone tell me more?

I am in the anomaly looking for a place that sells blueprints

[wanton patrol]

Oh I can help you!

One moment

[cerulean cliff]

Do you know where Nada is?

its down the hall across from their room

the blue print section

you should have a door though

[topaz jolt]

OK so lower floor or upper floor?

[cerulean cliff]

upper floor

[topaz jolt]

I am trying to get one😭

[cerulean cliff]

im pretty sure its a default one if you have circular rooms lol

you just place it on the side

after picking it in the build list

[topaz jolt]

Past the ramp left or right?

[topaz jolt]

But I didn't see an option to put a door

[topaz jolt]

Lemme google it

[cerulean cliff]

it should be on the bottom of the list where the circular room is

[cerulean cliff]

Do you know where Nada is in the anomaly?

[frigid saddle]

Nada is on a platform that is directly above and behind the nexus on the anomaly, you can jetpack straight up

[topaz jolt]

Found it

[narrow vigil]

You have to purchase the door for Habs and cuboids from the terminal between the exosuit and ship vendors at the anomaly

[keen ginkgo]

I dont recall needing to purchase the door

[narrow vigil]

Some one works for both type of rooms

[frigid saddle]

Ps there are 6 vendors in that room, 4 NPC's and 2 terminals

[topaz jolt]

1 salvaged data needed😭

[frigid saddle]

Yep, best start digging

[keen ginkgo]

Salvaged data always needed

[topaz jolt]

Even you need it?

[keen ginkgo]

Yes, in case more construction parts get added

[keen ginkgo]

I know its possible I just mean I'm fairly sure you get given the blueprint

[narrow vigil]

I didn't realize we need to till this most recent save 😂

[topaz jolt]

I cannot afford it, I can't even afford a normal space door😭 😭 💀

[narrow vigil]

Yeah I thought so too. But I never received the holo door in the base quest this time

[keen ginkgo]

Holo door?

[narrow vigil]

Holo or sliding door

[topaz jolt]

Its been an hour and still doorless

[narrow vigil]

You need to farm salvage modules.

[empty trench]

so the sac venom plants are actually a pretty good invenstment imo

[keen ginkgo]

They are?

[topaz jolt]

I mean the way to find them is to go to random planets, scan them and dig them?

[narrow vigil]

Like spend 30 mins farming them. You have plenty to get quite a bit inlocked

[keen ginkgo]

Almost every planet has them

[narrow vigil]

Yep. And dig up buried caches, learn from knowledge stones and other quick looting while farming the salvaged data

[topaz jolt]

I gotta mod my game for QoL tho, I gotta check the link I've received

[wanton patrol]

@topaz jolt if you want i can join you

[topaz jolt]

I hope it will solve the problem

[keen ginkgo]

Qol?

[narrow vigil]

I prefer small moons because usually the tight geography forces loot points close together

[wanton patrol]

Quality of life

[topaz jolt]

Quality of Life mods

[wanton patrol]

Is qol

[topaz jolt]

Nah I don't want to steal your time

[keen ginkgo]

What sort?

[frigid saddle]

I am pretty sure every planet has salvage sites that drop salvaged data?

[keen ginkgo]

The exception is uncharted systems

[topaz jolt]

Btw are they limited or get spawned randomly?

Because I am a member of colony and it has a ton players

On the same planet

[keen ginkgo]

Loot resets after a time, but I dont know how often it would sync with multiplayer activity

[topaz jolt]

I'll try the neighbor planet I guess

[empty trench]

most of these building cost more to upkeep than they provide productivity

[narrow vigil]

If you find a planet where loot double spawns build a base on it. Invaluable

[topaz jolt]

Idk man I love my colony

[keen ginkgo]

Correct, especially housing. Production buildings produce enough to cover upkeep past B class

[narrow vigil]

Like when you loot a buried salvage data and there's a chance meshed into it

Or two knowledge stone meshed together

[keen ginkgo]

You can have more than one base

[narrow vigil]

It's like it glitches loading loot and double loads them

[narrow vigil]

By base I mean a hab, teleporter and solar panels/battery. Something just to come back to when you need to farm

[steady dawn]

Hello, how do I get to any other Galaxies? I'm only in Euclid

[keen ginkgo]

Follow the call

[frigid saddle]

Or travel to the center of the galaxy

[keen ginkgo]

Thats the call

Big shiny light

[steady dawn]

Roger

[frigid saddle]

Oops, I thought you meant the quest XD

[steady dawn]

Thank you

[empty trench]

i'm ging to assmble a fossil display

[steady dawn]

Are there any planets where people hangout in Euclid Galaxy ?

[keen ginkgo]

Most planets where people hang out are in euclid

Cause most people are in euclid

[steady dawn]

Got any glyphs for that, kinda gets lonely here

[wanton patrol]

I can join you if you want

[narrow vigil]

#nmscord-hub

There's the discord hub system

Also try #nms-lfg-or-trades and trades

LFG = looking for group. Can find people there to play with

[steady dawn]

Thank you so much! Will be there right away

[topaz jolt]

NMS has a official colony?

[narrow vigil]

If you do any building try to keep at least 2000u+ from.other bases. Other than that find a spot you like and claim it

[narrow vigil]

This Discord community does.

There's also the Hub that has community systems. And groups with their own systems they set up elsewhere

#1418605454300549120

[steady dawn]

Will do, Thank you. Also no worries, I'll just make a small underground one

[keen ginkgo]

Underground?

[narrow vigil]

RIP

[topaz jolt]

How many members does that colony have? I really like playing socially in games

[steady dawn]

I'm one of those, Burrower types lol

[narrow vigil]

Terrain regenerates. So find a hole in the ground leading into a cave and build in that

[keen ginkgo]

Burrow less, cave more

[autumn zealot]

Explain how you make the terrain play nice

[narrow vigil]

Or you will be digging out your base

[keen ginkgo]

You make your builds play nice with terrain

[narrow vigil]

You dont

[steady dawn]

Oh I see, yeah I did encounter one of those regenerating terrain

[autumn zealot]

Yeah I was hoping void knew something I didn’t

[narrow vigil]

One thing I do is build a couple short walls on the flat ground. And then lay floor panels out connected to that. If you do that at your area's highest point terrain won't regenerate through your floor. And it will keep grass from coming through

[autumn zealot]

Regenerating terrain is how I ended up with carnivorous plants growing in my landing pad that one time.

[wanton patrol]

You'd like my unholy base

In mountain

3 floors

300 units wide

[narrow vigil]

To fix your base looking like it's floating just attach stone walls to the bottom. Gives it a nice foundation work

[wanton patrol]

90 units tall

[empty trench]

do you make money collecting fossils by putting together random bones

[steady dawn]

We can figure it out sometime.. sharing knowledge in this vast universe is awesome

[wanton patrol]

Looks like a damn fallout vault

[keen ginkgo]

Yes

Individual fossil bones are often worth something like 72k units, while assembled fossil exhibits are usually over 500k

[autumn zealot]

You can sell the completed skeleton at 10 to 25 percent markup compared to its individual bones.

[narrow vigil]

The only person who knows everything about the game is bk. The rest of us are eternally learning

[autumn zealot]

Or more yes

You don’t even need to use all bones from the same planet

[narrow vigil]

Peak male physical form

[autumn zealot]

You can in fact just make up facts about the skeleton and the collectors will believe you

[narrow vigil]

Imagine how great it would be to grab apples off of a tree with your teeth

[empty trench]

how do you know if you hhave tge right bones\

[keen ginkgo]

Right bones?

[narrow vigil]

Honestly the best use of fossils is making the derpiest creatures you can

[keen ginkgo]

You've got limbs, spines, tails, and skulls

[autumn zealot]

I think I’m in love

[steady dawn]

Wowzie

[keen ginkgo]

You always need one head and spine/torso, but for whether you need a tail or how many limbs depends on the fossil display

[empty trench]

so i can make every dinosaur a quadruped

[narrow vigil]

Pinchybuttocks Rex

[narrow vigil]

Yeah if you want

[keen ginkgo]

Man I shoulda taken screenshots of the fossils I made for the expedition

[autumn zealot]

…or you can cook the fossils to get bone marrow. I know a guy on a keto diet who would like that.

[keen ginkgo]

Extremely funny typo

[empty trench]

what does bone marrow do

[keen ginkgo]

For reasons you almost certainly dont know

[empty trench]

leto atredies II

[keen ginkgo]

More like the Traveller Leto

[empty trench]

i just cut up an onion and cooked it in beef broth

[steady dawn]

Aight I'm on Distira

[empty trench]

what's the most cost-effective fossil to construct

[keen ginkgo]

Cost effective?

I genuinely dont think fossils have varying prices

[empty trench]

like most bang for your buck

the fossils are all 72k

i mean the skeletons

[keen ginkgo]

Seems random

[steady dawn]

Any coordinates for the colony here in Distira? This Planet is beautiful btw

[keen ginkgo]

Alright time to share the fossils I made for expedition

[empty trench]

are there any buildings i should prioritize upgrading

[autumn zealot]

The wiki is not helping me here, thanks to a plant named “marrow” and an unrelated treasure item named “fossil”

[empty trench]

how do i get do i need a fishing rig to build bait

[tough grotto]

@silver night what is that planet named that you posted in #nms-photomode-gallery?

[keen ginkgo]

We got the "avian" podpteryx. No one knows how its wings coincidentally looked exactly like humanoid leg bones

[steady dawn]

Ayy I wanna visit your Bone Museum

[steady dawn]

Yours too

[keen ginkgo]

Oh its in the rendezvous 5 of the expedition

Though idk if it shows up while youre in the expedition

[topaz jolt]

How active is that community?

[keen ginkgo]

Here is biped fossil, the tyrannomole

[empty trench]

does cronus detect what's in your nutrient processor

no but i can feed him bones

[keen ginkgo]

Ironically, this fossil is the quadrupedal one, and that is when I finally got wings. Idk what to call it yet but I imagine it is really bad at walking

[autumn zealot]

What combination of words do I use to look up fossils on the wiki

[empty trench]

did i leave my nutrient processor behind

[keen ginkgo]

This is a skeleton of a creature only known as "Gonagechu," a semi-aquatic species said to lure prey to the water's edge and chase them down with bursts of speed

And this is a proposed ancestor of the gek, at least so I'm told. Personally I don't buy it

[autumn zealot]

He will GET you

[keen ginkgo]

Well yeah, do you see those arms?

[empty trench]

settlements seem weirdly involved

[keen ginkgo]

Its a mixture of being involved and leaving them alone

Im a good enough overseer to get my settlements properly running

[empty trench]

does happiness improve productivity

[keen ginkgo]

However I am terrible at actually grabbing the things they make for me

[empty trench]

i think you should be able to build more than one thing at a settlement at once

like two or 3 would be nice

[zealous loom]

reduced build times would be nice

[autumn zealot]

I keep forgetting until there’s a situation which requires putting the budget back into the red, which makes it impossible to take the goods until it’s cleared

[keen ginkgo]

Each construction project increases the sentinel alert level

[empty trench]

or at least make it so you can load up a few structures in order

i forgot what that was called

[keen ginkgo]

Queuing

[empty trench]

yes

queuing

[topaz jolt]

Do doors require power?

[autumn zealot]

I commissioned a quarantine zone for the villagers after they claimed they ran into dissonant sentinels, I have no idea if that did anything.

[topaz jolt]

Or is it optional?

[frigid saddle]

Doors don't require power

[empty trench]

some doors do

[topaz jolt]

The most basic one

[empty trench]

then no

[topaz jolt]

Does it need any power

[empty trench]

i found a curious deposit

[narrow vigil]

To power doors and other fixtures

[keen ginkgo]

Very useful

[frigid saddle]

insert DBM's runaway little girl voice line

[keen ginkgo]

Like extremely so

[empty trench]

there's a lot of balls and a lot of fauna in the way

[autumn zealot]

I set up a base right next to a curious deposit spawn point~

[keen ginkgo]

The balls are the deposit

[autumn zealot]

Get those balls before they escape

[empty trench]

i cannot mine within settlement limits

[keen ginkgo]

FRICK

I hate when that happens

[empty trench]

how big do they expect this settlement to get

[keen ginkgo]

Luckily for you, this indicates that your settlement planet has them anyway

[autumn zealot]

??? You can’t alter terrain but you can still smash rocks and plants, right?

[frigid saddle]

Does the power inverter here reverse the function of the proximity switch? As in stuff turn on when there is no one around, and off when there is?

[autumn zealot]

I have a settlement with Floating Crystals within spitting distance and it lets me mine them

[keen ginkgo]

Still confused why this has two buttons, since one placed close to the door works from either side

[autumn zealot]

The big moldy balls shouldn’t be growing in the middle of an existing town

[empty trench]

you can't use the terrain modifier within what they label the settlement limits

[tulip oar]

AHHHH

meow meow

[empty trench]

industrial frigate missions seem to be glitched for me

[autumn zealot]

It’s already flat ground, we don’t need to modify it

[empty trench]

i wanted to build a wall to block curious deposits from rolling away

[keen ginkgo]

Oh

You can actually do that

Place a base computer about 300 units away from the center of the settlement

[autumn zealot]

Place the wall at the bottom of the hill perhaps?

[narrow vigil]

You can. Find the biggest deposit you can, drop a base computer and place short walls slightly downhill from their location.

Drop a teleporter and solar/battery for quick return

[autumn zealot]

Or just raw-dog it and follow it with your beam

[empty trench]

i found another curious deposit

[narrow vigil]

You can also place a short range teleporter from your curios deposit to about 500u awayx.

Jumping to the end and back respawn the deposit

[empty trench]

i'm on the crious deposit planet

[autumn zealot]

You’re rich!

The second fastest way to score nanites is to sell off the random upgrades you recover from sentinel glass, and mold doesn’t even require combat

Honestly, antagonizing sentinels is a lot more fulfilling than I thought it would be

[empty trench]

i always liked flipping starships at 3 star economy stations

because you can also get storage upgrades at the same time

i have prototype building materials and intermittent lighting failure

and many spiders

[frigid saddle]

500? How do you manage that? My cable won't extend past 200

[narrow vigil]

Teleporter chain

[empty trench]

my nms just closed itself

[frigid saddle]

Ah, that's a bummer

There is no way to stack teleporters onto each other so that you get chain teleported from one end of the chain to the other without moving,.is there?

[lapis field]

why cant i fly to my minor settlement pin on my planet?

[narrow vigil]

Yeah one sec

[lapis field]

it goes to 1-2h then back up to 4h

[empty trench]

how do you put a ship in cold storage

[frigid saddle]

On freighters, one of the terminals in the middle of your command room lets you manage your squadron and starships, that terminal let's you archive them too

[narrow vigil]

Ok say that is your teleporter from beginning to end. 500u apart

[empty trench]

okie dokie

[narrow vigil]

Between teleporters build this

[empty trench]

i found another sentinel interceptor

[narrow vigil]

And stack teleporters facing opposite directions between them

Dark to highlight connections

Uploading a vid on how to stack them

[empty trench]

it's class c right now

[frigid saddle]

Aha, that's workable

[frigid saddle]

The platform is there solely for the building stacking shenanigans right?

[narrow vigil]

You can stack power generators and mineral/gas extractors the same way. Unlimited

[shell sonnet]

What’s the best way to spawn the sentinel dreadnoughts

[narrow vigil]

Yes. Can delete platform and restore ground when placed

[frigid saddle]

Got it, thanks

.. wait.. does this work over water too?

[narrow vigil]

Yeah. Just got to be able to get under the floor

[frigid saddle]

Much appreciated

[empty trench]

Here's my new interceptor

[frigid saddle]

I would jump around each pirate controlled star systems, hope for a system that has guaranteed dreadnought battle and is battling a sentinel freighter of the size you want, and the repeatedly jump into that system to respawn the freighter

[frigid saddle]

Dang, a foldable wing interceptor with no underwing?

[empty trench]

yeah i like it

the only issue is that it's c class

[frigid saddle]

85k nanites time

[empty trench]

i only have 70k

also i need to collect storage augmentations

[frigid saddle]

Maybe try beating up some more drugged up sentinels on the planet for some more dissonant spikes?

[amber shell]

Hello Travelers

[empty trench]

you mean inverted mirrors?

[frigid saddle]

No, Dissonance spikes, the locations of crashed interceptors

Pretty sure clearing 5 waves of dissonant sentinels is guaranteed to reveal one of them

(at least i don't remember any case where they didn't)

[empty trench]

my next multi-tool upgrade is 500,000,000 units

i can never clear 5 waves of dissonant sentinels

i don't think i'll ever get out of debt

[autumn zealot]

Units or nanites? The price in units is for adding an upgrade slot without an item

The nanite price is for increasing the tool’s base stats

[empty trench]

units

adding an upgrade slot is 500m units

i don't think th game is prepared for people paying 500m nanites yet

[autumn zealot]

Of course, you can get a free slot increase by dismantling spare multitools at that station in the Anomaly for upgrade items

[empty trench]

you also get free multitool slots if your ranking is high enough with the mercenary's guild

[autumn zealot]

Your patience for radiant quests is greater than mine

[empty trench]

i just grab like 50 kill x amount of creatures/sentinels and then do them all in one shot eventually

[frigid saddle]

My multitools never gets unlocked enough to cost that much, I think it's completely pointless unless you really enjoy cycling through all the weapons on your MT, otherwise 3 rows is plenty to have all of your mining, scanning upgrades and one or two fully upgraded weapon

[autumn zealot]

And you need to have the fishing pole on a second non-combat multitool or the thing will get you killed

[frigid saddle]

I have 2 MTs, one for mining and one for fighting, my mining MT has like half filled tech slots off the first three rows (so a quarter of the full potential) and my fighting MT has.. I think 10 occupied tech slots

And that's including the mining laser which I need to get around to breaking so I don't cycle to it byaccident

So yeah, anything past 100m per slot I'd just use MT upgrade augments to unlock, I wouldn't use units at all

[empty trench]

the trade good are all screwy

[autumn zealot]

Screwy in what manner?

[empty trench]

the prices are all off

[autumn zealot]

Are you in an abandoned space station? Their store prices are “glitchy”

[empty trench]

no

[narrow vigil]

Are you selling in the right economy type?

[empty trench]

yes

[narrow vigil]

Did you sell at the trade terminal and the value of trade drop?

[empty trench]

no the trade goods for the system have unusually low prices

one of them was even in demand

[narrow vigil]

Can you post a picture of the trade terminal screen?

[narrow vigil]

What star type is the economy of the system? 2?

[empty trench]

high tech

and it's a level 3 economy

like i could probably still make a profit trading it but the trade goods are getting less profitable to buy

[narrow vigil]

Yeah that's kinda off...not sure what would cause that to be all over the place

[empty trench]

i wonder if the same thing would happen in euclid

[lapis field]

can i get back to my base if power to my teleporter run out?

[empty trench]

maybe it's the balldunger system or whatever

[shell oyster]

Yes

[marsh oracle]

Ah yes, starship delivery driver as i like to call it. Hauling some goods from one system to another to make profit. Honestly I like making units that way

[autumn zealot]

Have you considered piracy?

[marsh oracle]

Sometimes, but im an honest traveler. I try not to involve myself in piracy

Although, doing so just to get Salvaged frigate modules does seem a bit interesting right now.....

I want to unlock some stuff for my freighter, why is it difficult to get them? :<

[frigid saddle]

Wait until you get to cargo bulkheads

That thing makes me question my sanity 😛

[tulip oar]

meow meow

[manic ravine]

i cnt talk im srunk

[marsh oracle]

How do yall get yalls frigate modules for your freighter?

[wanton patrol]

Raiding

[marsh oracle]

Raiding other freighters im guessing

[steady mango]

hello

[wanton patrol]

:3

Maybe.

[wanton patrol]

Hello Traveller

[steady mango]

idk i just have a bunch laying around

idk where i got them

but I have some

[frigid saddle]

I used a variety of methods, but in the end I just maxed out my explorer guild, make a note of which envoys gives free frigate modules, raid them all, and then do something else until their stocks refresh, then repeat the process

[tribal condor]

Hallo.

[smoky jasper]

round 2 for the off-angle house, keeping it clean this time so it doesnt get away from me

[frigid saddle]

Deliberately getting the modules take way too much attention either way, even including the raiding cargo pods

This is also what I plan to do with cargo bulkheads, which I am even more disinclined to get manually since the cargo pod trick doesn't work and derelict freighter is.. eugh 😵

[marsh oracle]

I see

[narrow vigil]

I see a wild Mitey 👀

[desert kestrel]

Just played this game for the first time today for a few hours. I went to the game pretty much "blind".
I think I'm not exactly sure what I'm supposed to do lol
Does everyone spawn on a random planet, or on that frozen planet I spawned on?

[autumn zealot]

Starting planets are random, but I think you always get one with a hazardous atmosphere so the player doesn’t dawdle

[keen ginkgo]

Not necessarily

[north fog]

Everyone spawns on a ”random” planet

There is a belt, roughly 700k LY from the core where the game knows all systems with an eligible spawn planet, and then just selects one of those planets, in that belt randomly

[north fog]

Starting planet will always start getting storms when you go to get the Heremtic Seal

[desert kestrel]

That's pretty cool! I kinda want to build a base on the planet, I really liked it even though it was very cold

[autumn zealot]

As for doing things, follow the red quest markers and you’ll eventually get called by friendly unique NPCs.

[keen ginkgo]

Yeah, but the atmosphere is sometimes fine, aside from storms

[desert kestrel]

Thanks!

[north fog]

Pretty sure it should always be hazardous

[keen ginkgo]

Ive heard of players spawning on lush worlds before, and I myself spawned on a desert world where it was only hot during storms, though cold at night

[autumn zealot]

Bases are very satisfying once you have resources beyond the cracker boxes you start with

Again, follow the plot far enough and once the multiplayer hub is open, you can trade in salvaged data for more construction blueprints.

[desert kestrel]

I think I need to watch at least one tutorial before I continue next time.
I visited two other planets nearby and almost got stuck on a radioactive planet because I didn't know what I was supposed to do 😂

[desert kestrel]

Awesome!

[keen ginkgo]

Follow the quests, theyll get you started at least

[desert kestrel]

I'll do that, thanks!

[smoky jasper]

seriously just stick to the main quest and go in blind, dont look up too much. its one of those games where there's nothing like your first time and its almost impossible to mess up your save

[north fog]

Ehhhhhh
I wouldn’t really say that last part is true
It’s very much possible to mess up your save

If you, for example, play in a group before unlocking the anomaly

[smoky jasper]

i mean i back up all the time but i break this game in half with mods and glitches and it just takes it

[frigid saddle]

It should be ok if everyone in the group started at the same time, though it can still get a bit wonky

[north fog]

No it will not be okay

The issue is doing missions in a group, which could break the missions for one or all players, making them unable to progress

[frigid saddle]

Ah

[north fog]

It has nothing to do with everyone starting at the same time

[frigid saddle]

I guess I lucked out then, our group didn't run into that issue

[north fog]

You do not play story missions while in a group.
That’s like rule 2 of no man’s sky

Rule 1 is to disable PvP when you’re new

[desert kestrel]

Alright! I think I'll continue to go "blind", it might be more fun lol

[frigid saddle]

Duly noted

[smoky jasper]

my build has a tile off by 2mm but im not tearing everything apart to fix it. jammed some small tiles in there

building at angles sucks ass in this game lol its always something

[halcyon tide]

im so tired i thought i was looking at a 3d print

but yeah the angles can be pretty annoying

HG should add right triangles

[north fog]

Hi soup

You should go to sleep if you’re that tired

[halcyon tide]

yeah

but im trying to solve a puzzle

and it's so simple yet so hard

[keen ginkgo]

What puzzle?

[wanton patrol]

I need a taxi to essentiam rq

[north fog]

Go to any of those two places

[white bluff]

I can't remember how to get / what happens with scanning the last, extinct creature

[wanton patrol]

Too slow for me, I kinda need it rn as I have coords to a rare ship

[little linden]

This has to be the most artistic pic ive taken

[north fog]

The ship won’t disappear from the system just because you take an hour to go there

Take a picture of the coordinates and come back

PGSC are usually pretty fast, so you shouldn’t have to wait too long

[crisp gull]

There was a highlight base you could access at the Anomaly iirc, if you go up to the big teleporter on the uppermost floor, unless they changed them (which they hardly ever do I think). One based in Eissentam.
Might be faster than trying to get a ride🤷‍♀️

[wanton patrol]

If it is indeed in eissentam you js saved me ngl

[north fog]

They change kinda often, but there’s usually one in Eissentam

[wanton patrol]

Yep

[north fog]

When I say often, I mean like two or three times a year

[wanton patrol]

Found one

Ty!

Honestly forgot the portal existed-

[crisp gull]

Yeah I just meant it’s not like they change monthly

[north fog]

Oh yeah

[manic ravine]

playing no mans sky drunk is one hard deal

i deleted stuf i ddnd tmean to

had to reload save

i feel like im waterlogged

[tulip oar]

good morning

[autumn zealot]

Go to bed

And drink water

This is a warning from your Hydro Homie, if you don’t drink water you’ll feel dead tomorrow

[heady laurel]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BRING BACK THE STARBORN PHOENIX DLC I NEED IT

You ain’t reaching hg here

[tulip oar]

i think they just meant that as a joke, not like actually trying to tell the devs :v

[north fog]

Never know

But yeah probably

[heady laurel]

I mean realistically if they don't make it available now with their new nomination for the game awards

It's gone forever

[north fog]

On another note, spewing vents are fking stronk almost max stats on all 3 upgrades, base upgrade and all 3 upgrades supercharged it shoots so fucking fast

I might be turning into one of the 25 living ship users in this game

[heady laurel]

Could never be me, I hate vore.

[manic ravine]

man wouldnt some breaking bad type stuff in nms be fun

with the geknip

[pseudo mantle]

So I just started a new game after a few years away and it would appear that I spawned on a frozen tundra planet and can't find any uncondensed carbon to make a visor and find my ship any ideas of what I can do?

[autumn zealot]

Do we know enough about Gek biology to get them low, beneath a green sheet of glass?

Like a disgraced cosmonaut?

[jovial solar]

If you're on PC you can use mods or save editors to get it

Not sure if trading with another player would work

[north fog]

Tried shooting trees and bushes?
