[severe owl]

I am starting a new travel with a new account somebody wanna play? I am a little rookie for yall to know

[smoky jasper]

trade it to a npc then they buy it from the npc

[crystal egret]

interesting

[silver night]

I have some mech horse eggs to give away in the anomaly - not a single autophage player came in a while... 😄

[sharp raft]

oh my gosh you crash already @dreamy kayak ?

[opal glade]

I need a lot of ferrite, pure and magnestised as well

Where do i go

[serene iron]

start with any junk metal you have - chuck that in a refiner, there's some ferrite dust.

[opal glade]

I'm talking like 10k

Amount

[serene iron]

mind if I message you?

[opal glade]

Ok

[narrow vigil]

This is where the positron ejector is useful. Aerial farming of ferrite and carbon. I always keep a basic one with no upgrades on my ships just for that

Also good for shallow water and farming those resources

[chrome rock]

Pretty much any ship weapon on a rocky planet will net you a ton of ferrite

[umbral sequoia]

You should automate it. You can find magnetized ferrite hotspots but for regular and pure you'll need to refine...iirc all biome minerals refine into ferrite dust so you can automate any of them...pyrite can refuel your pulse drive and uranium can fuel your launch thrusters too so you can start with one of them.

[narrow vigil]

Phase beam has no splash damage and infraknife has the least amount of splash damage compared to photon Cannon and positron.

[chrome rock]

With my infraknife I've gotten thousands of ferrite within a minute before, it's pretty quick

[narrow vigil]

Not saying infeaknife doesn't work. Positron is just the fastest. With the broadest spread and splash damage

[chrome rock]

Fair, but it accumulates so quickly the splash isn't really needed though

I just don't like having extra weapons on my ships if I don't need to

[autumn zealot]

The weather updates are always something terrible. Imagine hearing

Weather Update: Cloud shaped like Specialist Polo’s head

That would be nice

[chrome rock]

For my Corvette I use positron though, just harder to shoot the surface successfully with that beast

[desert fiber]

wrong starlight i think? 😭

[sharp raft]

oh darn it. sorry about that!

[desert fiber]

no no its ok

[topaz jolt]

Finished story, truly peak

[severe owl]

lol

[topaz jolt]

Does the peak continue?

[opal glade]

Oh my god I put stuff in the portable refiner and exited to main menu. All I put in is gone!!

[opal glade]

Must be a bug right?

[topaz jolt]

Kid named save editor

[keen ginkgo]

First, clarify what you mean by "finished story" without spoiling stuff

[icy rivet]

It’s been there for ages

[topaz jolt]

Reached to the last main quest

[chrome rock]

Refiners typically do that

[narrow vigil]

You have to babysit your machines or you risk the items depawning

[mighty peak]

yea i think only the personal refiner keeps items

[chrome rock]

One of the many reasons I'm not a big fan of using refiners a lot

[keen ginkgo]

Ok. Congratulations! You have experienced the brief summary of the story and lore this game has to offer!

[narrow vigil]

This is why Corvettes are so useful. Able to take those refiners and kitchens with you as you go

[topaz jolt]

Me when my humble refiner eats all of the input

[narrow vigil]

[chrome rock]

They still disappear if you leave stuff in and go to the menu though

[narrow vigil]

And if that happens a lot of times you can delete the machine and replace it in your items will be back in the slots. For whatever reason 🤷🏻‍♂️

[keen ginkgo]

Weird, cause I swear I accidentally went to menu before removing something from my freighter refiner, and when I loaded the save to check, it was still there

[mint wraith]

sometimes reloading makes it reappear at least in my experience

[narrow vigil]

Summoning a different ship and then bringing back your Corvette will do it too. But again often you can just delete the machine and when you bring the machine back your stuff will be there

[chrome rock]

I was making like 100 ion batteries with like 25ish timer on them and went to the menu. I even tried deleting them, didn't bring back my raw mats

It's really bad when your ADHD is so bad you forget you just put stuff into a refiner because you feel you need to move on to the next task

[umbral sequoia]

I mean, I don't think HG want your stuff to disappear but I don't know if that will ever be something they can fix...to remember what you were refining mid refining. That aside if you're refining large quantities of something, like you were saying earlier about needing 10k ferrite, I'd recommend using medium or large refiners at a base or freighter...those take no fuel and if you refine 10k of something it refines a lot faster if you do 2k in each of five refiners.

[keen ginkgo]

I am personally convinced that freighter refiners are perfectly fine to leave unattended as long as you stay in the same system

Probably

[chrome rock]

That probably undercuts your argument 😁

[keen ginkgo]

Well, its because I forget to test things

I recall another player claiming that they warped in and out of a system while leaving their freighter in it, and it still kept their stuff in the refiners

Though there was a delay in loading it

[chrome rock]

Did they warp from the freighter itself?

[keen ginkgo]

No, the freighter stayed in the same system, iirc

[desert fiber]

waow artificer so many roles you have

[keen ginkgo]

The main thing I know ia that things tend to reset/reload upon changing systems

[steady mango]

[desert fiber]

i last saw you green 🥲

[keen ginkgo]

Thanks I stole them

[desert fiber]

oooh nice work :3

[chrome rock]

He save edited them

[desert fiber]

i moved to a new apartment and fell out of NMS 😭

[keen ginkgo]

Haha yes I totally did and nms totally didn't remain one of my main interests for even longer

[desert fiber]

😭

i'll prob be back around next major update tbh

[keen ginkgo]

I wonder what that will be

[desert fiber]

hopefully something planet related

would love some new planet generation

[keen ginkgo]

It feels like we just got that, lol

[umbral sequoia]

If I had to guess probably late January or February we get at least a new expedition but probably update too.

[keen ginkgo]

Twice-ish, even

[desert fiber]

yet the planets still feel ancient 😭

[desert fiber]

i want to say late jan early feb since they won the best ongoing title

[umbral sequoia]

I don't think them winning the award changes their internal development time or anything. It's just that they usually release something before the end of February.

[keen ginkgo]

Im looking at the major updates post on steam and I find it really funny that many people seem to gloss over the fact that it calls the team working on nms "ridiculously small"

[umbral sequoia]

And the expedition redux runs ending mid January could mean something around then...they don't always line up to have new expeditions immediately after a redux or previous expedition ends but at times they have done that.

[narrow vigil]

Yeah they are working by a strict schedule. And their consistent routine and update release schedule won't be changed because of yet another award

[desert fiber]

isnt there dev team under 60?

[keen ginkgo]

Idk, but I remember people being worried about lnf because the team working on it was called "tiny" in the same post

[narrow vigil]

They don't need a large team for LNF

[keen ginkgo]

But the exact quotes are "another tiny team"

[desert fiber]

stardew was made by a single person

[umbral sequoia]

I mean, when NMS released they had something like 26, now the entirety of HG are around 50 people. So I imagine somewhere around 20 is what they have working on NMS.

[desert fiber]

large teams are stupid and alot of the time lead to horrible games im ngl

[narrow vigil]

I imagine in many ways it's just going to be a reskin of No Man's sky. I don't expect them to come out with completely new mechanics and systems for everything they already have

It will be unique. It's not like it's going to be some sort of fantasy copy.

[keen ginkgo]

Which would mean that the dev team for lnf is likely a similar size as the dev team for nms

[narrow vigil]

But rather than building a new game they're just adapting this game to that one. And it doesn't take nearly as many people

[desert fiber]

i mean they already are test running some things in NMS. the corvette building came entirely from LNF

[keen ginkgo]

Its a new game still, but on the same engine

[narrow vigil]

This is how devs can have multiple teams running battlefield and cod games.

It all just reskinning and building off of the other games. And you don't need a hundred people for that

[desert fiber]

which isnt a bad thing IMO, in house engines are great

[narrow vigil]

Yep

[keen ginkgo]

But my point is that the teams arent wildly different in size

[narrow vigil]

It worked well for a couple decades till everybody started using Unreal

[keen ginkgo]

At least, going off the news post

[narrow vigil]

Unreal was the best and worst thing to happen for gaming

[desert fiber]

i love unreal in terms of how it plays and how its somewhat reliable...ish. but god i hate the optimization

its not as bad as un*ty

[barren drum]

Hello everyone!

[desert fiber]

hi

[sharp raft]

wait is this the starlight from last night? 🙂

[narrow vigil]

Unreal and Unity gave indie devs a great tool to help small teams build great games. Many indie games over the past decade would not have been around without these tools.

But they also gave big developers the tools to cut costs and quality easily. Pumping out half cooked projects year after year

[desert fiber]

uhmmm i dunno

i need more info than last night i did alot of stuff ast night

[sharp raft]

hahha that made the pact to join Mitey and Taurus in permadeath. and if you do.. you can change Artemis' name for a week 🙂

[desert fiber]

heavy on that last part.... (Staring at rust's optimization) god i couldnt even imagine if they tried running NMS On unity 😭 12 fps everywhere

[desert fiber]

ohhh yeah this isnt the same starlight 😭

[sharp raft]

dammit 🙂

well Mitey tried heh

[desert fiber]

last night i was unpacking 😭

[sharp raft]

oh that sound like so much. uh. fun. sarcasm 🙂

[desert fiber]

i already did my permadeath run a few years back and im not going back

[desert fiber]

nah it actually was fun except for recabling my entire PC set up i hated that

[sharp raft]

ah never quite sure hwere somethin gets plugged in.. feel ya pain!

[desert fiber]

i know where everything gets plugged in its just the part of making the cables not stick out and look ugly 😭

so many zip ties were reapplied last night

[sharp raft]

the heck is goin on. NMS sayin it can't sync with steam. Restarting steam did nothin. Did Mitey miss somethin?

[keen ginkgo]

Ah

Tuesday

[sharp raft]

weird. the steam cloud should have already been updated

Mitey gonna restart whole machine juuust in case

[desert fiber]

steams down :p

[keen ginkgo]

Around now is the time I remember steam servers doing their maintenance thing

[desert fiber]

yep 8AM WED here is when they go down typically

[keen ginkgo]

Hopefully it clears up by the time I get back home, I was planning on loading my own permadeath save and making my way to the lake

[desert fiber]

you can just boot without sync

[keen ginkgo]

Yes but I do not know where the lake is

[desert fiber]

better get to exploring

[manic ravine]

lets hope nothing regrettable happens to you

going out on a limb in permadeath

[keen ginkgo]

I am far to skilled for such a thing to occur

[desert fiber]

that is the aurix they cant die

[keen ginkgo]

This is what I tell myself

[sharp raft]

Oh noooo. Steam. What you did for! Mitey gots permadeath people to help! Heh.

[desert fiber]

its a weekly server update

[sharp raft]

steam's server update never did THIS. I mean it didn't even log me in heh

[manic ravine]

its permadeath, but is pvp enabled

i would hate for that to be the case

[keen ginkgo]

Pvp being enabled or not is a player decision

[manic ravine]

that would be so unfortunate

[keen ginkgo]

I personally have it disabled, but I am aware of the possibility for... accidents

[desert fiber]

ive had a cheater one tap my ship when i had PVP on so i learned my lesson with playing PVP on

[manic ravine]

permadeath , death to what? if you aren't going to be killed by anyone, is it just a prestige

is it just a status?

[keen ginkgo]

My title for my permadeath save is "The Reckless"

[sharp raft]

its real life. stub your die.. you die. fly too fast.. you die. don't dodge that one pirate shot.. you die.

[keen ginkgo]

I wear it to flaunt my confidence in my jetpacking skills

[desert fiber]

heavy on this

[sharp raft]

basically Mitey see it as real life 🙂

[manic ravine]

you play games to emulate the limits reality imposes upon you?

[desert fiber]

almost lost my permadeath save cause i flew a few units to high in my jetpack

[chrome rock]

Melee boost can kill you if you're not careful

[keen ginkgo]

Obviously not

[desert fiber]

i didnt know i can jetpack irl

need to get on that

[keen ginkgo]

In our reality, I dont have a jetpack that can result in my death if I misuse it

[sweet dragon]

Imagine if permadeath had an ironman mode...

[keen ginkgo]

Or the ability to disable pvp

[chrome rock]

YET

[manic ravine]

i meant the voulnurability thing

i meant the being made of glass thing

[keen ginkgo]

Oh, travellers are way more durable than humans typically are

[desert fiber]

i play glass cannon in BG3 is that playing limited ?

[chrome rock]

I was saying this exact thing earlier today, needs a better multiplayer system for it though

[desert fiber]

fr i dont know what human can space walk without a helmet on

[manic ravine]

no what im saying is, you are hanging a sword over your head, playing with fire.

[desert fiber]

thats the fun in permadeath

[keen ginkgo]

Thats the fun of it

[desert fiber]

its like hardcore minecraft

[keen ginkgo]

As I have recently learned, I am apparently rather skilled at this game

[desert fiber]

you dont want to die but nearing death is thrilling

[manic ravine]

and at the end of the day, what if , you don't have such a lucky day

[chrome rock]

To be fair nms isn't that hard of a game, even on permadeath

[manic ravine]

what if it rains on your parade

[keen ginkgo]

Dunno when that happened, but I'm gonna push that skill/luck to its limits

[sweet dragon]

It's not fun having your 100+ hour save deleted over a stupid lapse in judgement...

[sharp raft]

steam died.

sad.

[keen ginkgo]

Ahem did you see which title I picked for my permadeath save?

[sharp raft]

however it will live again! 🙂

[desert fiber]

https://steamstat.us

i think thats the NA Link

[keen ginkgo]

"The reckless" is the death title you get when you die due to fall damage/jetpack misuse

[manic ravine]

its like putting money into an unknown investment that you aren't allowed to look at

and its gone

[chrome rock]

My pd save file is named permamegadeth

[keen ginkgo]

Nah, those are way more stacked against you in terms of odds

[sharp raft]

maintenance. damn. must be intense.

[desert fiber]

thats a good one

[manic ravine]

aaand its gone

[keen ginkgo]

At least nms has skill as well as random elements

[desert fiber]

playing permadeath in games adds a new level to the experience

it teaches good discipline aswell

[keen ginkgo]

I even added more limitations for myself, lol

[sharp raft]

Mitey gotta say that he love that 🙂

[desert fiber]

in my permadeath run i made it to where i cant build on planets unless its quest dependsant

[chrome rock]

I enjoy pd, but I still think people who play on abandoned galaxies are nuts

[rigid void]

Oh Mitey, I’ve added your friend code finally

[sharp raft]

oh did you? yay!

[keen ginkgo]

Im probably gonna do an abandoned run at some point, but not abandoned permadeath

[topaz jolt]

It is definitely not for me

[sharp raft]

steam is down at the moment unfortunately.. but yay!

[desert fiber]

doesnt need to, its not for everyone and it definetly doesnt give you anything other than bragging rights :3

[sharp raft]

oh whats a little risk for some reward? 😉

[keen ginkgo]

It can challenge hoarding tendencies as well

[rigid void]

No worries, I need to finish gearing myself up anyway before trying to travel far

[manic ravine]

Who would want to cause themselves unnecessary frustration, and misery ?

Wrong person

[desert fiber]

i mean...

[topaz jolt]

Can someone help me to design my corvette's interior?

[desert fiber]

alot of people ?

[manic ravine]

But don't we have enough that as it is

[desert fiber]

people love breaking the glass ceiling and finding new limits

[shut pagoda]

Yo

[manic ravine]

They like to fall to their death down a giant mountain

[desert fiber]

i think its a thrill of life

[keen ginkgo]

Think of it as like the inverse of what you like to do in this game

[umbral sequoia]

No, not really. It just teaches you that you can lose hundreds or thousands of hours of play to a bug. My record in NMS permadeath is flawless. Made it to the center without any help and without using portals in something like 10 hours of play on first attempt, and during the permadeath expedition I only took the forced death. I have never had an unintentional death in permadeath. But if you think I would play my main save on permadeath or that there would be any value to doing so you're crazy.

[manic ravine]

It's playing with matches near a oil canister

[chrome rock]

I literally didn't use a Corvette for two patches because fear of bugs

[sharp raft]

Ironic hearing you say that.. as often as you attempt to break the game and take great pride when you do break it.. so it must be frustrating then when it works as intended eh?

[umbral sequoia]

Yeah, basically.

[keen ginkgo]

I feel like converting a normal save to permadeath would be more hazardous to the file than permadeath would be

[desert fiber]

^

[manic ravine]

It's frustrating if I lose my progress, if I were any of you

But I have backups

[keen ginkgo]

Yes, but I signed up for it

I know what im getting into, amd even chose to impose additional limitations to myself

[desert fiber]

also i never said anything about playing a main save as permadeath. my entire point is that playing permadeath in games teaches you to be cautious about situations you put yourself in... which is discipline

[chrome rock]

The trick to not dying to bugs in pd is to not do any new content until it's patched a time or two

[sharp raft]

If and when Mitey dies.. then mitey dies. Mitey will start over. Thats how it is in Permadeath. You exercise caution.. you use your head. Then you be FIINE. But do one stupid thing.. yeah death gonna happen

[desert fiber]

literally this ^

[keen ginkgo]

No matter when I wouldve started my permadeath save, I wouldve gunned for a corvette right away, lol

[manic ravine]

No there's shit that happens outside of your control

[keen ginkgo]

Yes

Thats always the case

[sharp raft]

Yes thats called life 🙂

[chrome rock]

I did it on my normal save just in case 😁

[manic ravine]

I'm fucking done with this

[sharp raft]

Can’t control pirates or the animals that are hungry or the sentinels programmed to kick your butt.. thats just life in the game 🙂

[manic ravine]

Whatever

[desert fiber]

i died in permadeath due to a bug. i ripped my save through a editor cause dying from falling out of a space station from the new space station update was unfair to me. was i ready to let it go. yes. did i feel like starting new from that? no.

[keen ginkgo]

Yeah I will say that dying to a bug or glitch is more annoying than dying to an actual danger

[manic ravine]

I feel like perms death would make me quit the game for a long time

[sharp raft]

See that when Mitey comes and helps you 🙂

[desert fiber]

oh no it was just death

[keen ginkgo]

In my case, it would probably just be a while before I try it again

[desert fiber]

i jumped out of my space ship fell through the floor and died to fall

[keen ginkgo]

I still have my prime iteration

[sharp raft]

Thats right. Mitey come help your NEXT save and keep you safe til you have progress!

[desert fiber]

ah

[manic ravine]

Why do I need to rely on somebody else when I can't even find somebody else or stay with them

[keen ginkgo]

Need?

[desert fiber]

^ ?

[keen ginkgo]

Its not necessarily about need

Help makes the struggle easier

[chrome rock]

This is exactly why I don't like doing new content until it gets patched, sorry to hear that happened. At least you save edited it back

[sharp raft]

Don’t you play with multiplayer off?

[desert fiber]

nah its all good

i knew the risk lmao

[naive mist]

Nms is on sale on steam btw

[sharp raft]

Heh is steam back up? 🙂

[chrome rock]

I mean realistically if you backed up your save you just had to replace the folder

[keen ginkgo]

No, but it can be easy to lose track of friends

[chrome rock]

But that's save scumming

[desert fiber]

when i play NMS crossplatform frequently i always make a copy of my save before every single patch

[naive mist]

Lol it was down?

[desert fiber]

and then i store it on my various game saves hardrive

[desert fiber]

wednesday maintence

[keen ginkgo]

Steam servers being updated, though it tends to affect joining friends the most

[desert fiber]

This made me reflect on losing many of my game saves to my foolish modding endevours 😭

[sharp raft]

It was down :(. made mitey sad

[chrome rock]

I mean anyone can play permadeath if they're willing to have a backup save every day, they can just rewrite the day they die

[desert fiber]

chunk corruption in minecraft, nms just being updated. cyberpunk.

[manic ravine]

9 times out of 10

[keen ginkgo]

Eh, lame

[coral anchor]

I made a Corbett, finalized it, and it disappeared I can’t find it anywhere, can’t swap swap can’t nothing is that a normal bug

[desert fiber]

^ i only rewrite if i lose something from a bug

[chrome rock]

I agree, but some people want that achieve more than playing the game true

[naive mist]

Anyways. -60% sale nms

[keen ginkgo]

If you arent okay with death in permadeath/hard-core or whatever, then dont play it

[timber haven]

Heh, if I die on my main save I roll back to a previous restore point even if it means I lost 10 minutes of progress.

[manic ravine]

It runs faster without players

[chrome rock]

On non pd?

[sharp raft]

This makes no sense. If you got mp off.. then you;re not gonna find people. So to complain about not finding people when you can’t.. eh Mitey must take a sip of one of those frothy drinks!

[keen ginkgo]

You can achieve the same difficulty with less stakes starting from survival difficulty anyway

[desert fiber]

i wonder if japan has that sale going or if its a holiday

[timber haven]

Yep, don't want that stain on the save

[manic ravine]

I sometimes play with my friend

[desert fiber]

oh yeah only 2600

[chrome rock]

Fair enough

[desert fiber]

i might buy it for my friend then

[manic ravine]

That's mp

[desert sun]

You might have only saved it as a work in progress, try going back into the corvette workshop and see if it's there

[keen ginkgo]

You gotta remember the anomaly warp calibration thing

[timber haven]

Especially when it was a plasma grenade marked "return to sender"

[sharp raft]

You so nice

[desert fiber]

you didnt press rb to throw back !?

[desert fiber]

christmas gift 🐱

[manic ravine]

I hate having to locate someone that leaves me behind constantly because they wanna do things fast

[keen ginkgo]

Yeah, the space anomaly can do that for you

[manic ravine]

Thx

[keen ginkgo]

System-wise, at least

[timber haven]

Fired it somewhere and it came rolling right back...
I'd be happy with them detonating when they hit something or within a short time of the first bounce. Some last way too long.

[desert fiber]

i cant do the anomaly without multiplayer. it feels so sad and desolate

like i can get that experience just by flying around in the sad and desolate space

[desert fiber]

my tip is just never use the grenades in nms 😭

super unreliable

[manic ravine]

Butt I can get lost on the same planet as them and occasionally we would disappear from each other's instances

[naive mist]

No risk no fun

[chrome rock]

Or geo cannon

[keen ginkgo]

Yeah... that happens sometimes

[desert fiber]

not even about risk i just hate the grenades in this game 😭

[keen ginkgo]

Happened to me and my friend during a Sentinel fight

[naive mist]

I use both geo canon and plasma granades

[manic ravine]

And it would be horrible to happen on something dire

[keen ginkgo]

We weren't able to meet up until the sentinels disengaged

[chrome rock]

Plasma grenades are super useful when fighting quads in pd, the damage is really big

[timber haven]

They work fine when standing on a hill and shooting down. Or lobbed a long ways off.
Even the ones that got me weren't fired anywhere close they just rolled back for 1/2 a mile first.

[tulip oar]

if you're so worried about all these things going wrong, then don't play with others

[desert fiber]

i just use my atlas staff and its ez pz

but atlas staff is super OP

[keen ginkgo]

I... am refraining from using my atlas staff in permadeath for the time being

[desert fiber]

same with the skull on a stick one

[manic ravine]

Well you see that's what I've been doing..... Ten steps ahead of ya

[chrome rock]

Wait... They bounce for you? The plasma grenades I use explode on contact with the ground

[timber haven]

Typically use the neutron cannon instead for splash aoe.

[keen ginkgo]

I decided that, in order to redeem expedition rewards, I must make some kind of trade from what I gathered

[desert fiber]

mine do both !

thats why i dont use them 😭

[sharp raft]

yay! steam returns!

[manic ravine]

I'm staying my reasons as to why mp is... problematic

[sharp raft]

you know what that means?

[chrome rock]

I guess you're aiming fairly close to yourself?

[sharp raft]

it meas time for more PERMADEATH! OH YES

[timber haven]

Mine only explode when they hit something, or after a lot of bouncing/rolling.

[unkempt scroll]

I found a very fun infinite nanite glitch in the game. Im currently on the main quest at the Apollo stage, and theyre having me talk to someone who just keeps giving me free b class upgrades for my exosuit

[desert fiber]

no i hate throwing and then they move away cause a weirdly long fuse time or not

i had a grenade explode 10 seconds later after being tossed

[chrome rock]

Maybe I just don't remember it well, but I usually hit the bottom portion of the bad guys

[manic ravine]

But yeah getting on mp I would demand to also be in VC with them

[chrome rock]

Maybe I just aim well and hit my target

[manic ravine]

So I'm not lost

[sharp raft]

ohh sync'd baby. Mitey do happy dance. ohh yeah 🙂

demand? pfft. Mitey deaf player.

[manic ravine]

No VC no play with me

[sharp raft]

oh thank god. Mitey is saved 🙂

oh wait. eh. there's speech to text.

[timber haven]

The grenades can hit stuff not in LOS if used right just annoying how far they can roll with and unpredictable fuse.

[sharp raft]

surprisingly it works better than you'd think

[lavish ember]

im doing a mission thats like take a picture of a strange planet, how do i find the planet it wants

[manic ravine]

It don't work on Xbox

[keen ginkgo]

If it looks really weird

[desert fiber]

as someone who cant move their vocal chords. i love me some TTS

[keen ginkgo]

Like, not any of the typical planets

[keen ginkgo]

Ah, its the other way around. Idr if nms has tts

[brittle niche]

There should be a channel for funny randomly generated names. I found a Vy’keen named Wax

[sharp raft]

actually works pretty nice! Mitey's played with people who are on xBox and Ps5.

[manic ravine]

Frustrating as hell when someone is communicating to you text and it on Xbox where replying is not possible

[desert fiber]

i thought it had speech read?

[sharp raft]

when they enable it and talk then it does a pretty good job of text

only in group 🙂

[keen ginkgo]

I dont remember if it does, but mitey was initially talking about speech-to-text

[desert fiber]

but still my point applies i love when games have TTS it makes my life and disability a hell of a lot easier

[keen ginkgo]

Yeh

[desert fiber]

ohhh speech to text

[sharp raft]

you not listening. Speech to text. will type it out for you in groups only. Works well

[manic ravine]

Does it...work..on
..xbox

[desert fiber]

i cant give my opinion on it cause i cant use it 😼

[timber haven]

How about this guy?

[sharp raft]

Mitey not surprised that hearing people don't listen. AH hahhahaha the best deaf joke 🙂

Ah well BACK to haggling with this corvette parts guy.. ugh

[keen ginkgo]

Mitey dont forget about the ability to trade for more than one!

[desert fiber]

oh man

i forgot about my corvette i was building

[sharp raft]

oh hmm. two habs. or two walkways.. hmm.

[desert fiber]

i hope it saved for the next time i play

[manic ravine]

It wasn't that I wasn't listening its that I don't understand

[desert fiber]

i think i had 40% of it done nad it was like at 310 parts 😭

[keen ginkgo]

Features like speech to text and in-game voice chat function only when youre in a group

At least, thats my understanding

[manic ravine]

And yet ....in space anomaly I see text displayed sometimes as squares

What's the square thing

[keen ginkgo]

Oh that would be unsupported characters for your language setup

[desert fiber]

thats different languages or emojis

[sharp raft]

a foreign language.

[manic ravine]

Font for English doesn't support those characters

[keen ginkgo]

Yeah

[manic ravine]

Ugh they should use Unicode

[desert fiber]

yeah.... for a mutlitude of reasons they should not

[manic ravine]

Naming your ship <> makes it's name invisible

[brittle niche]

Nice. I also found a planet Quer. One more e and I would’ve definitely made a set up there

[keen ginkgo]

Usually your ship reads as "[your name]'s starship" to other players

[desert fiber]

^

[keen ginkgo]

Which is kinda sad tbh

[desert fiber]

just throwing one out there is people getting around banned words really easily

[timber haven]

Yeah can't even see the names others use.

[manic ravine]

But what about when someone foriegn that their language isnt supported types something to me and I cannot do anything in response

Because I can't see it

[keen ginkgo]

My guess is that the issue goes both ways

Similarly, I think the game replaces unknown characters in a username with a generic one like the "Traveller-164" I sometimes see running around in the space anomaly

[desert fiber]

i'd rather have that small issue then dealing with going to the anomaly and seeing the Hard R plastered in chat 5000 times by troll bot accounts

[manic ravine]

We aren't like that

[desert fiber]

"we"

all it takes is one grumpy group of people that they lost the game awards

[manic ravine]

This games community is not like that

[desert fiber]

ive literally already been called a certian four lettered D slur in the anomaly by someone

every game community has terrible people you cant use that argument

[manic ravine]

Well thats true I see

I've yet to meet one

[sharp raft]

...

[timber haven]

This game requiring a purchase to access it is what keeps a lot of the riff raff away.
Used to play on a private wow server that was free, even on the worst days here that place was 10X worse on a good day.

[desert fiber]

ive played FF14 and man i wish they'd remove the free trial. i had to take off from being a lalafell cause of bot accounts harassing me constantly

free games are awful but it doesnt stop people from buying dirt cheap indian accounts since rupees are such a economically low currency

its like rust. rust is a paid game but they buy chinese/indian/russian accounts for cheap to be racist/homophobic on

[manic ravine]

Where did it all go wrong

[desert fiber]

bot account people have 0 life outside of harassing people and i certainly saw alot of fortnite people mad NMS won best ongoing

[timber haven]

That server eventually made it so you couldn't chat before level 5 or 10... Which was bad for someone asking for help starting out but couldn't be avoided.

[desert fiber]

its a new issue again btw that did nothing to help 😭

[manic ravine]

I like only coop with one person

[sharp raft]

okay fingers crossed this works.. Mitey gona attempt a bridge like environment using the.. uh whats it called.. thunderbird cockpit. .hmm

[lavish ember]

how do i do these photography missions 🙏

[desert fiber]

they've made a macro to level the account to 15 and then goto limsa and spam chat its awful

[sharp raft]

your utility wheel has a camera on the right end

[severe owl]

Somebody to start new traveeeel?

[lavish ember]

how do i know what planet to take the picture of

[sharp raft]

the mission will tell yu what its lookin for

[timber haven]

I bet... Even though NMS is a year older and IMO much better community wise.

[keen ginkgo]

Strange planets are exotic ones, like cabled, skeletal, metallic, etc

[lavish ember]

it just says strange planet

[manic ravine]

Speaking of which they need to add coop option so technically no is still off but you connected to someone p2p and not a master server

[lavish ember]

thank you

[timber haven]

Most of the time the mission should mark somewhere for you to go, and if it is outside your current system may need to look at the galaxy map, had that happen before.

[lavish ember]

i tried that and it says its in this system

[lavish ember]

would an ash-shrouded or abandoned paradise count

[desert fiber]

i love both games but i think epic deserved to win the ongoing game for fortnite. (i voted for nms lmao)

[tulip oar]

no

[lavish ember]

damn theyre like the only intestsing ones

[timber haven]

Hmm, sometimes it will tag the planet, but I've seen some of the biome type ones not do that so had to guess.

[lavish ember]

can i dm you the mission, cant send pictures in here

[timber haven]

Only played this one out of the group, guess fortnite just had a bad vibe for me for some reason, might have been my kids talking about it. 🤣

[desert fiber]

ahh i played it growing up when i was 10-11 so im a kid myself compared to some of the ages here 😭

[timber haven]

Try the screenshot here. https://discord.com/channels/146101654981312513/1023351820120231956

[desert fiber]

i just find it crazy for a PVP game to be alive after so long especially a battle royale

[lavish ember]

sent it

[hardy summit]

@sharp raft I’m so so sorry I overslept then forgot I was supposed to play with you today. I just remembered now but me at work

[desert fiber]

ah theres the starlight he meant to ping

[hardy summit]

lol yes me

[sharp raft]

oh there you are! oh heheh well at least you are okay! Aww you gotta go to work 🙁

[hardy summit]

There’s like five of us named starlight in here

[sharp raft]

Mitey'x fixing up the rescue ship! You're gonna be juuust fine 🙂

[desert fiber]

i've had this name since i was a wee baby :3

[tulip oar]

[sharp raft]

Tarus just joined. he got settled in last night 🙂

[narrow vigil]

I think the biggest thing that sets the two apart is how much more fundamentally different no man's sky is since it's beginning.

[white bluff]

Your actual name is Starlight?

[narrow vigil]

While they all added some new features the others are still the same thing they were at launch.

I'm sure that was taken into consideration alot

[desert fiber]

No but my mom used to call me hoshiko growing up which means star child

[desert fiber]

very true both have came extremely far since launch and both are extremely impressive

i'd be happy if either won

[timber haven]

I never played this at launch but the impression is that 50% (or more) of the current content has all been added later, and about the only thing still the same is how you pilot your starship.

[white bluff]

Yes, NMS has changed colossaly more than has Fortnite since its launch. No comparison.

[desert fiber]

honestly between content added and mechanics changed/added i would say fortnite by a long mile. its just not as noticeable with how much stuff is cycled in and out.

ive played both day one and i can say with fortnite overhauling into UE new movement gunplay, UI's vehicles being added even fortnite fest being constantly added fortnite has a insane more ammount of stuff
BUT
NMS pushes out a insane ton for having a smaller dev team

[smoky jasper]

started this today, vibe im going for is a shop that a ship crashed into with vines and roots growing out of the roof

[timber haven]

I think stuff like the corvette update for NMS though is a pretty huge change overall since that took ship building to a whole new level vs. different wings and such on fighters.

Love the random name generator.

[desert fiber]

yeah i am excited for LNF just cause of this alone i cant lie

[desert fiber]

ah starfield...

bethesdas biggest dissapointment

[pliant wadi]

I love it when uh, the sentinel walker spawns way underground and i have to dig him out so i can slay him

[tulip oar]

Let's keep media here NMS-related @timber haven

[steady mango]

hello

[timber haven]

Bummer. Offtopic I guess 🤷

[tulip oar]

yep yep!

[timber haven]

Did you know that screenshot is why I even started playing NMS? (fun fact.)

[tulip oar]

interesting

[timber haven]

Just happened the corvette update came out a month earlier.

Pretty much flipped a coin which one I wanted to get on Steam and this one was cheaper. Yay for frequent sales.

[narrow vigil]

I started playing NMS cause I was tired of dying while trying to land a spaceship in ED.

I was into the idea. But flight sims are not my thing

[desert fiber]

i love flight sims. i wish there was a option for nms to feel like flying well... a plane

[timber haven]

#off-topic-bond-james-bond message
Moved it.

[desert fiber]

i wanna press all the fun buttoms individually

[timber haven]

Lots easier to land in NMS.

[orchid latch]

anyone have 1 spawning sac willing to donate or exchange?

[tulip oar]

Try asking around in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[orchid latch]

thanks

[steady mango]

fr

and crashing in nms feels like hitting a pillow with another pillow

[nocturne sonnet]

i love crashing into trees

[steady mango]

lawnmower corvette would be funny

[nocturne sonnet]

hell yeah

[steady mango]

lowk there should be an option to turn the flight assist off

[nocturne sonnet]

but

[steady mango]

cause I want to fly upside down while very close to an ocean

[nocturne sonnet]

like what does the flight assist in anyway

[steady mango]

and also its kinda annoying sometimes

[steady mango]

huh

[nocturne sonnet]

😳

do ppl

not know how to fly the ship

[steady mango]

probably

but like

it should be an option to have it off

and also flying is like the least complicated thing ever

proper docking would be cool

so I could recreate

the interstellar scene

[nocturne sonnet]

imagine living ship having to put up with your shenanigans

[steady mango]

it would get bored of eating so many trees

[nocturne sonnet]

they feel pain 😔

they scream when they get hurt

[steady mango]

tell that to the sentinels

[nocturne sonnet]

the shield upgrade is literally called scream suppressor

[steady mango]

their fault for being too underpowered brochacho

[nocturne sonnet]

sentinel ship just eats you alive

[steady mango]

[naive mist]

Underpowered lol

[steady mango]

living ships arent very good

[nocturne sonnet]

theyre not underpowered

[steady mango]

compared to most other ships

they aren't very good

[nocturne sonnet]

they eat pugneum

[steady mango]

they look sick though

[nocturne sonnet]

which is cool

[steady mango]

so they literally eat sentinels

[nocturne sonnet]

they dont need the normal materials

i think hyperdrive you fuel with uhh

chromatic metal?? i forgor

[steady mango]

wraith is the best one but it still doesnt compare well to other s class ships

looks very good though

[nocturne sonnet]

living ship kinda derpy

[keen ginkgo]

It makes the ship fly like its a plane instead of a spaceship

[naive mist]

26k dps spewning vents that acts like 90k infra knife

[steady mango]

ig

[nocturne sonnet]

what is the difference 😳

[steady mango]

its annoying though

[keen ginkgo]

If you dont know, you need the flight assist

[nocturne sonnet]

damn

[steady mango]

[nocturne sonnet]

ill just bonk the trees then 😄

[steady mango]

it would be cool if we got flight motion controls or smth for switch

idk

[visual jolt]

one of the sound track songs reminds me of the shadow of mordor sound track.... anyone else think this?

[steady mango]

flight just feels a little bit shallow

[nocturne sonnet]

which one

[visual jolt]

i agree I'd like the option to turn it off

the flight assist I mean

[steady mango]

idk what that is

but nms sountrack is peak

[visual jolt]

I have to wait for it to cycle back on again....when I hear it I'll try using shazam on it

[keen ginkgo]

Have any of you guys flown in a realistic spaceflight sim?

[steady mango]

no

[visual jolt]

the two lord of the rings games where you could possess orcs and build an army of them

[steady mango]

yeah idk

[keen ginkgo]

Flight assist being completely off means no drag or banking turns

[visual jolt]

they are goood games and still hold up, they just not very lore accurate

[visual jolt]

proper "no flight assist" would need seperate rudder and aileron controls so you could do barrel rolls

[nocturne sonnet]

ik real plane 😄

[keen ginkgo]

No

[steady mango]

or just have it be a little less annoying

[keen ginkgo]

It wouldnt have that because theres no air in space

[nocturne sonnet]

if pilot fly barrel roll i want a refund

[steady mango]

but on the planets

[keen ginkgo]

Oh sure, planetside it would be like a plane

[steady mango]

yeah

[visual jolt]

also there would be seperate thrusters for roll vs turning in space

[steady mango]

cause when I fly around for fun I dont do it in space

[nocturne sonnet]

weeeeee

[keen ginkgo]

Correct, but flight assist includes inertia dampening

[nocturne sonnet]

the things we do

[visual jolt]

can you actually destroy your ship from hitting the ground?

[nocturne sonnet]

no u just bonk it

[keen ginkgo]

Im pretty sure you used to be able to, or youd be stuck

[nocturne sonnet]

ur ship is basically the nokia brick phone

[keen ginkgo]

Because you arent able to reverse when in atmosphere

[steady mango]

which is a bit dumb imo

[visual jolt]

space engineers manages to have a nice trade off between "assist" and difficulty. you absolutely can hit the ground and die but its not full flight sim

[steady mango]

kinda funny though

[keen ginkgo]

In space engineers the flight assist is inertia dampening

[nocturne sonnet]

this is the least realistic space game

u can land on gas giant

[visual jolt]

yes which you can turn off, but its not like microsoft flight sim

still very easy to fly

[steady mango]

well yes but that doesnt mean flight cant be a bit more realistic

[keen ginkgo]

Uh-huh, now turn the maximum speed up to a few km/s and see how well that goes

[nocturne sonnet]

they did try make it a bit more realistic

like the divert to engine etc

[visual jolt]

I use a 250 large grid / 350 small grid speed mod in SE1 and its still very easy to fly

[steady mango]

well yeah but that doesnt change much

[keen ginkgo]

Km/s or m/s?

Because nms boost flight gets to speeds of over 3 km/s

[visual jolt]

so in space engineers and astroneer you can actually drill entirely through a planet and come out the other side, the planets actually are spherical. is that the case in NMS?

or is there a max dig depth?

[nocturne sonnet]

they did try 😅

[keen ginkgo]

Planets in nms are spherical, but theres a maximum dig depth

[visual jolt]

boo

[steady mango]

I guess

[keen ginkgo]

And the reason for it would be the same reason its a bad idea to mine out a planet in astroneer

[visual jolt]

larger astroids that you can build bases on would be nice in NMS

[nocturne sonnet]

it's because there is only so much terrain manipulation data they can handle

[keen ginkgo]

In astroneer the save file gets larger the more terrain is mined/added

[visual jolt]

yeah it makes the save file get huge but people have done it

[steady mango]

oh yeah that would be sick

and they could float around the system

but that would definitely be too hard to implement

[keen ginkgo]

The asteroids in the game already are plenty big enough, size-wise, lol

[nocturne sonnet]

isnt that the space station 😳

[visual jolt]

can we build our own bases on space stations?

[steady mango]

what

[keen ginkgo]

No

[visual jolt]

being able to buy a big empty room in a space station and build inside it would also be nice

[steady mango]

yes

or just have them be bigger inside

[keen ginkgo]

But most asteroids in the game are at least 300 units (aka meters)

[visual jolt]

I feel like if you combined the best bits of space engineers and no mans sky you'd have the ultimate space exploration / trading / building / etc game

SE2 is looking like part of the way there

[narrow vigil]

They would have to give us a reason and need to build inside space stations. Rather than just being some other random place we can build

[visual jolt]

let you run shops to generate units in the background

[keen ginkgo]

The only reason I will agree to space bases is if it lets me build in some space encounters

I wanna live in a grave of the ocean king

[steady mango]

player built shops would be cool

would make multiplayer so much better

[keen ginkgo]

Lots of players just give stuff away

[steady mango]

well yes but like

being able to make your own restaurant

[narrow vigil]

And you can't have a player economy with such easy modding and save editing

[steady mango]

or smth

and players can buy stuff off you when you are offline

[keen ginkgo]

Its not even the easy modding and stuff

I probably made this one player's day by giving them 3k magnetized ferrite

Which was half of what I happened to have in my inventory at the time

[narrow vigil]

Right. The community is just so used to giving everything away

Right down to full ships

[keen ginkgo]

I mean like, 3k magnetized ferrite is like pocket change to me

[narrow vigil]

Love it when some absolutely new player dropped like five wiring looms or microprocessors on you. Gives you a thumbs up

It's important to them at that point in the game and they think it's important to you when you are late game 😂

"I'm doing my part" energy

[keen ginkgo]

Wiring looms always have purpose

[visual jolt]

hmm, I just hit load the game is stuck at the star field animation.... its not hung but not progressing, I guess I'll just leave it?

[steady mango]

one time this new player gave me some milk so I gave him like 10m units

[narrow vigil]

It's not loading your save?

Try again. If it persists try and load up a different save or a new game

[visual jolt]

not yet, but I'll leave it another few minutes before I kill the game and try again

since it hasn't hung technically

gonna reboot then try again

[keen ginkgo]

Ngl I kinda would like a flight assist off feature, but mostly because it would be funny to see people attempting to fly under more realistic spaceflight physics

[narrow vigil]

Like giving somebody who's always driven a coup a four-wheel drive

[keen ginkgo]

I think it would be like putting someone in a plane's pilot seat after they say theyre a really good driver

[visual jolt]

at the very least give us the option to toggle on damage from hitting the ground

[steady mango]

isnt that a thing though?

or do you mean

actual damage

or smth

[balmy quail]

i don't know what i'm doing....

what can i do to my corvette?

can i outfit it with tech we normally put in starships?

[steady mango]

add some cowling

[smoky jasper]

the mod that takes away the red border when youve taken damage is so good, doesnt ruin your screenshots

[keen ginkgo]

You do take damage, its just not a ton, usually

Its similar to colliding with an asteroid

[keen ginkgo]

Yes

[visual jolt]

I'm missing something, I just built a hydroponics tray for first time. I don't see a way to add any seeds to it?

[timber haven]

One would think that both would be major damage but its more like hitting a moth with a car.

[balmy quail]

how do i increase tech slots for my corvette?

[visual jolt]

(my save loaded this time, phew)

[keen ginkgo]

We have shields

[keen ginkgo]

Have you unlocked the plants?

[timber haven]

Even with shields, or majorly deplete those.

[visual jolt]

I assumed we used stuff we find planetside like the wheatsleede

plants are a seperate unlock from salvaged data?

[keen ginkgo]

You can unlock them, but you gotta know the blueprint

Also the wheat isnt one of the growable crops

[visual jolt]

ok so I need to go back to the anomaly ?

[keen ginkgo]

Frost crystals are the equivalent

[visual jolt]

also how do I earn salvaged data faster than just digging them up one at a time?

[keen ginkgo]

Its not one at a time, each of those little packages holds up to 5

[visual jolt]

I seem to only ever get one

[steady mango]

maybe just even the sound design could improve crashing alot

[keen ginkgo]

You shouldn't be most of the time

[narrow vigil]

Although the listed best ingredients in the game require other ingredients there are still many recipes you can use that are very close to those. And require much less sourcing of ingredients

[forest hollow]

can other players be encountered naturally other than the space anomaly?

[narrow vigil]

I generally just use recipes that require milk, eggs, cactus, frost crystal and facieum

[visual jolt]

ok but is there other ways to find salvaged data?

[narrow vigil]

Exploring and digging

Sometimes missions give them away. But most of them are going to find by digging

[visual jolt]

ok

[steady mango]

I think so

although it is very unlikely

unless you are in an expedition

[visual jolt]

i read that if get close to the galactic core you tend to meet other players often

[narrow vigil]

Salvage data, damage machines, buried caches... All are valuable. Can also hit up knowledge Stones along the way. Farm multiple things at once to make it worthwhile

[visual jolt]

or find their named planets

[sharp raft]

@narrow vigil dammit Mitey wish you were here

[narrow vigil]

Combined with salvage scrap or fossils

[sharp raft]

Corvette problems heheh

[steady mango]

ive never met another player there but ive seen alot of bases

[narrow vigil]

I will be here in a bit

[forest hollow]

i found an uninhabited system and named its 3 planets after an idle game i play

[narrow vigil]

What's your friend code?

[visual jolt]

expeditioms are stuff you get from the nexus right?

[timber haven]

Beeeep * soft thunk*
Guess that was the mountain.

[steady mango]

imagine hitting a mountain and just hearing extremely loud scraping

[narrow vigil]

I'll be on in about 20 minutes. Send me yours so I can join your game

[steady mango]

no

those are nexus missions

[visual jolt]

can you do nexus missions solo?

[steady mango]

expeditions you can start in the anomaly or on a new save file

[steady mango]

yep

[tulip oar]

meow meow

[visual jolt]

where do you go to start expeditions in the anomoly? I didn't see anywhere to do that? and can they also be done solo?

[keen ginkgo]

At the expedition terminal behind the nexus thing

yeah

[keen ginkgo]

Nah, thats tomorrow

[steady mango]

expeditions are good for multitool upgrades

[visual jolt]

good to know... thanks

[steady mango]

or starship upgrades

[steady mango]

you should definitely do them when you get the chance

they take like 3 or 4 hours to complete if you know what to do

[keen ginkgo]

Do not apply the upgrades while in the expedition

[keen ginkgo]

Next redux begins in just over 12 hours

[sharp raft]

there ya go. you're in. Gotcha added and look forward to it sir

[keen ginkgo]

Im trying to remember whether or not I started building a base in my permadeath save

[steady mango]

does the build limit matter that much

as in have any of you actually hit it

[keen ginkgo]

For bases?

[visual jolt]

21000 pieces seems quite a lot unless you build a base on like 1000 different planets

[steady mango]

yep

[keen ginkgo]

Not really

[steady mango]

oh ok

[keen ginkgo]

Individual bases have an upload limit of 3000 or so

[visual jolt]

the teleporters seem to make building multiple bases pointless? just pick one planet you like and build a megabase

[keen ginkgo]

Also theres a save maximum of something like 400 bases

[visual jolt]

imo there should be a light year limit on space station teleporters

[keen ginkgo]

Base teleporters exist too

[visual jolt]

or make them cost resources to use

[plucky dagger]

can anyone help me out? I’m on The First Traveler mission but I can’t mine the terrain to get to the cargo boxes in order to beat the mission so I’m stuck 😢

[visual jolt]

don't the teleporters also make trade routes with freighters pointless?

when you can just teleport with as much as you can carry

[keen ginkgo]

Trade routes are with stations

[visual jolt]

i mean why buy a big freighter for trade when you can just teleport between stations?

[oak glade]

im kinda lost in the game, there are someone playing me to help me do smth?

[keen ginkgo]

Big freighter is for storage and semi-portable base

[steady mango]

each planet looks different bro 😭😭🙏🙏

[visual jolt]

still I feel like the teleporting should cost resources or be limited in some way

[mental sigil]

Hi guys i am new player in nms started 2 days ago and new to this server

[steady mango]

idk

[timber haven]

Only really 52.5 parts across 400 bases but that limit also includes freighter and corvette.

[keen ginkgo]

What

[steady mango]

it would be a bad change considering its been the same for ages

but maybe for

[oak glade]

same, lemme dm u

[steady mango]

idk

light no fire

[timber haven]

At least what ive seen mentioned on the limit.
Did 21000 divided by 400 bases.

[keen ginkgo]

Oh wow thats correct

Insane

[mental sigil]

sure

[timber haven]

Seems small really

[keen ginkgo]

Well, I dont think any individual player would build more than maybe 280 bases max

[oak glade]

i did

[keen ginkgo]

And that is assuming they want a base in each galaxy

[visual jolt]

i can't imagine building more than 20 bases

[narrow vigil]

I guarantee you some old school StarCab dude wants 600 bases minimum 😂

And won't shut up about it

[plucky dagger]

I’m on The First Traveler mission but I can’t mine the terrain near the freighter to get to the cargo boxes in order to beat the mission so I’m stuck, does anyone know what’s wrong 💔

[keen ginkgo]

600 is utterly unnecessary, even for starcabbing

[keen ginkgo]

Are you out of charge for the terrain manipulator?

[timber haven]

I'll have to even count how many bases I have but less than 20.

[plucky dagger]

nope, its fully charged
Maybe it needs an upgrade or something? I’m not sure. It just won’t let me edit any terrain near the freighter which is keeping me locked

[keen ginkgo]

Its not bedrock, right?

[manic ravine]

Do you consider messing up the land around somebodys base to be bad

[keen ginkgo]

Make sure you arent standing near the freighter's actual walls and stuff

[narrow vigil]

Punch the broken doors once you dig down

[manic ravine]

Like taking the trees

[topaz jolt]

Guys I need help I know I should not bring it to nms channel but pirates are attacking at the same time😭

[plucky dagger]

just the normal ground

[topaz jolt]

I have a question

[manic ravine]

Wait so would demolishing trees around somebody house be bad

Not ones they built

But land around it

Does that count as theirs

Like not just the house but the land too

[keen ginkgo]

That kind of thing doesnt stick around for long

[manic ravine]

In nms

[keen ginkgo]

Plants and stuff come back

[manic ravine]

But not the same

[keen ginkgo]

Especially when it comes to different sessions

Ive literally had resource nodes reappear when doing stuff in expeditions with multiplayer on

[manic ravine]

Ugh can't you just manually put damn trees

Non destroyable

[keen ginkgo]

Theres the tree decorations in the quicksilver shop?

[manic ravine]

Not for all the ones I like

There's some oak trees they didn't put

[steady mango]

oak trees arent a thing

[manic ravine]

Well they look like them

[steady mango]

yes

[narrow vigil]

@sharp raft incoming!

[manic ravine]

Cypress looking ones too

[keen ginkgo]

I like mentioning that "plants" arent a thing in the game either

Taxonomy is silly

[manic ravine]

What are those contoured pod things supposed to be

The towers

Those machinery?

[keen ginkgo]

Ngl I have no clue which things youre talking about, lol

[manic ravine]

Ok so on those planets that have the tower looking things

That have the part that can't show in here

[keen ginkgo]

Cable planets

[manic ravine]

Yes what are those

[keen ginkgo]

Glitches

[manic ravine]

You cannot scan them

But you can destroy them with a ship

Only

[keen ginkgo]

The light fissure planets also have a 4-dimensional structure

The stuff on them does, anyway

[manic ravine]

A glitch in the matrix

[steady mango]

wdym?

[manic ravine]

What about those planets that have all the random tv monitors

[keen ginkgo]

The structures of the light fissure planets exists in 4 spatial dimensions

[manic ravine]

The planets that have those monitor screens

[steady mango]

the ones which are like holes in the ground right?

[keen ginkgo]

With light coming out of them, yeah

[manic ravine]

Yes you can buy it too

[steady mango]

those were so weird when I saw them for the first time

[keen ginkgo]

I think those are related to remembrance

[steady mango]

still very unsettling

and those orb things that play music

[manic ravine]

What about the geometric shapes that fly around

Polygon

[steady mango]

and sometimes those egg things spawn with red "moss" or whatever and it looks like blood

[keen ginkgo]

You're still gonna have to be more specific

[steady mango]

reminds me of war of the worlds

[tulip oar]

meow meow

[steady mango]

[visual jolt]

i found a planet with living bubbles that floated aro8nd

[keen ginkgo]

Theres a rather large number of polyhedron creatures in this game

[visual jolt]

that reflected landscapes other than where they were

[keen ginkgo]

Wow

[visual jolt]

a "foaming" planet?

[keen ginkgo]

I never thought to look in the reflections

That sounds straight out of an abandoned building log, lol

[visual jolt]

is that rare? I should go back and name the planet and the bubble creatues

[keen ginkgo]

Kinda-sorta?

I just never looked that closely at the bubble creatures

[visual jolt]

like the landscape was quite brown and red and flat ther reflection in the bubble creatures looked like blue sky, mountains and grass

[steady mango]

what if some of the liquid that those bubble creatures spill is edible

and since they never run out

infinite food

[visual jolt]

i killed one and just got viscous liquid

then I felt bad

[steady mango]

a glimpse into another future

or smth

[keen ginkgo]

Another world

Or reality

[steady mango]

yes

[keen ginkgo]

Alrighty, gotta gather my wits

@sharp raft ready for a quick navigational assist?

[manic ravine]

Why does that fat guy in the space anomaly always talk bad about the food you make...

There's no making him happy

[sharp raft]

navigational assist? oh should mitey be afraid? 🙂

[keen ginkgo]

That is space Gordon Ramsay

[vapid flower]

Idk doesn’t he reminds u of a real chief ?

[keen ginkgo]

Im able to join the lake now, lol

[vapid flower]

[keen ginkgo]

Thanks, I'll arrive soon

[vapid flower]

It’s always fun sometimes to just a pick a star at random and just go there blind

Not knowing wtf ur going to get

Even after almost a decade I still love that shit soo much

[open lantern]

oh man that it what i thought was the goal... mostly

[visual jolt]

what happens to a storage box if it loses power? and why do they need power anyway?

[open lantern]

tics me off you can't skip tutorial and stay in permadeath just a little bit. it goes to custom lol - ah well we all know this part. !

[tulip oar]

nothing

[vapid flower]

Me when I wonder why anything basic need power nowadays

[last trellis]

Does anyone have corvette parts to trade? I got insane amounts of upgrades and contraband worth units

[mental sigil]

https://galacticatlas.nomanssky.com guy can any one tell me how to find my location in this website

[vapid flower]

Go in photo mode

U get ur glyphs of the planet ur on

[visual jolt]

you just can't put stuff in or out of the storage until it gets power back?

[tulip oar]

i believe so

[mental sigil]

oh ok thank you

[open lantern]

heck, you can tear down a storage and when you finally find another your stuff is there.

[vapid flower]

That be useful irl if that happened

[arctic solar]

Does anyone know what the unit to cent value is?

[visual jolt]

oh wait? all storages are linked?

[open lantern]

by the number yes

[arctic solar]

Oh cool.

[visual jolt]

ohhh thats a lot more useful

[open lantern]

if you put things in a 2 they will be in 2 i guess

[visual jolt]

also explains why they need power

[steady mango]

they probably need power since teleporters do and I guess that they use teleporting technology to get your items from anywhere

[arctic solar]

What is the unit to cent value?

[visual jolt]

I didn't realise they are teleporter storage boxes

[arctic solar]

Like is a unit 10000th of a cent?

[steady mango]

storage that other players have access to would be nice

[steady mango]

nah

[arctic solar]

Cause they are easy to get.

[visual jolt]

if your base teleporter loses power you have to fly there from the nearest space station is that right?

[steady mango]

you can get a whole ass spaceship for like 4m units

[arctic solar]

I mean if you were to sell a unit in the real world.

[visual jolt]

what can one unit buy in NMS?

[arctic solar]

I don’t know.

Can you trade with another person though?

[visual jolt]

go to a space station and look at the prices for ordinary stuff like copper

[manic ravine]

Units are worth dog shit

[visual jolt]

problem is we don't know how much one unit of copper weighs

[manic ravine]

Each

1 unit is worthless

[arctic solar]

How about 1000th of a cent.

[steady mango]

idk

cause

starship are like 5m units

[arctic solar]

So. Would 5m be like 5 bucks?

[manic ravine]

Hell no

Most likely 50k

[arctic solar]

So what is it?

[steady mango]

[steady mango]

maybe a bit more

I like to think starship are basically the equivalent of cars

[arctic solar]

Cause I have only 400000000 units and I don’t know what that is in actual money.

[visual jolt]

assuming one unit of copper is 1 kg. copper is $12 a kg. in NMS one unit of copper is 55 units. so 1 unit is roughly 20 cents US

[arctic solar]

Wow.

But a person would not pay that for a unit.

[frigid saddle]

So unit cap is about 8.5m

[arctic solar]

I see.

[frigid saddle]

Wait no

[arctic solar]

Oh?

I thought you were right…

Ok.

So…

One unit is…

[frigid saddle]

Blah, no coffee money, intake that back

[arctic solar]

How much USD?

I love coffee.

[frigid saddle]

1 unit is 0.2 dollars, so 5 units is 1 dollar, yes, sorry, 4.27b is rightly 850m usd

[visual jolt]

anyway comparing real word to sci fi or fantasy prices is silly

[arctic solar]

Wow. Units are worth a lot.

[visual jolt]

just play the game

[arctic solar]

Burt why?

I like bugging people.

[frigid saddle]

Because I think gold and copper ratio in RL is nothing like the one in game

[arctic solar]

Me too.

[visual jolt]

are you a ChatGPT bot?

[arctic solar]

The availability of the stuff is insane.

Yes…

I am.

Back to Elon Musk i go.

[visual jolt]

if we had asteroid mining in real life the price of platinum, gold, silver etc would plummet

[arctic solar]

Yeah.

But the world’s tech would really advance!

We could solve houseing crisis!

[tulip oar]

We have #nms-media you can use

[timber haven]

Large flowers.
