[young urchin]

wont happen if im there to do something about it

dont worry guys ill save the day

[manic ravine]

I PUT my exocraft to have negative inertia

i have no idea WHAT doing so has done

but it made things a lot faster

[keen ginkgo]

Infinite acceleration, in a way

[manic ravine]

and now with the slightest jolt, my vehichles teleport

[exotic lynx]

guessing overflow

numbers werent expected to be negative so when they do go negative, max positive

[keen ginkgo]

Unless it does go negative

[young urchin]

i bought this game 6 days ago and i already have 57 hours worth of playtime

i might have some issues

[exotic lynx]

true, and how far do they go negative if they go

[manic ravine]

negative inertia makes all my exocraft teleport into space with just a single shift of my mouse

[keen ginkgo]

Sounds rather consistent with inverted inertia

[manic ravine]

damn , you could use that for space travel

maybe thats the secret all along

[keen ginkgo]

Well, inertia is tied to mass irl

[manic ravine]

and possibly FTL

if negative

somehow

[pulsar pine]

quick question why haven’t i got the immortal title in no mans sky? i just got the trophy

[manic ravine]

faster then relativity

fk you einstien

haha

note: einstien insults you if you die in this game, in one of the death quotes

using a quote he supposedly says, but theres little proof of him saying it irl

"two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and im not sure about the universe"

that was never said by him

its one of the death quotes you get in the game

there should be an achivement for getting all of them

theres like 30 of them

and i modded mine

[pulsar pine]

yea i got all of them but still

in my main play through i dont have it

[manic ravine]

i don't know

i don't play for trophies/achievements

so im wrong person to ask

[tranquil geyser]

I successfully got my first corvette today

[manic ravine]

congrats

now, spend 5 hours on it

[tranquil geyser]

it is not a good corvette of course,

[manic ravine]

spend 5 hours customizing it

[tranquil geyser]

But its all i could afford xd

[tranquil geyser]

I dont have that time xd

[magic ether]

Can someone here please link me to any PvP community?

[manic ravine]

i dont know if there is one

[tranquil geyser]

Im no good at pvp in ship fights

[magic ether]

Ah damn

There must be

[manic ravine]

pvp in this game is a biiiig mistake

[tranquil geyser]

also found insane ruin fragments that cost a lot

[magic ether]

It works though

And I've heard of communities

[tranquil geyser]

And gave me a lot of money for the corvette

[manic ravine]

it does not , two people can have completely different setups, with one person being extremely superior in terms of equipment and upgrades

[warm stream]

whats buzzing about as of late?

[tranquil geyser]

Yes, im new to the corvet building system as i only have ten hours in the game

Also found a literal pirate ship in the anomaly xd

[manic ravine]

one player can be a literal god compared to you in terms of upgrades

[tranquil geyser]

I got a screenshot

dont have image perms tho

😭

[manic ravine]

allowing pvp, is like allowing level 1 character to fight a level 99 character in some other game

one shot dead

its why i don't fight

[tranquil geyser]

Also, is the next update supposedly being announced tommorow?

[manic ravine]

i am better then that

and i dont kill people

no

[tranquil geyser]

Damn

[weary hollow]

i don't think i'd fight anyway, i'd be shocked to even find another player

[manic ravine]

where in the world did you hear that

[tranquil geyser]

Idk bro im bored

[manic ravine]

other players make me paranoid

[tranquil geyser]

Fair

I have like c class stuff rn lamo

💀

[weary hollow]

im about to start my first save in like a year

[manic ravine]

dont worry , you'll get better sht

[tranquil geyser]

Gl

[manic ravine]

i bet you you'll have better sht by .. the next few hours/days

[tranquil geyser]

I know, tommorow imma be doing a lot of missions from my corvet

[manic ravine]

yeah , before you know it

[tranquil geyser]

Well i only play for like three hours every day (cause im 17)

😭

[placid relic]

I hope to never encounter pvp

[weary hollow]

i've been chucked on a cold planet

[tranquil geyser]

Dont worry, you will know where i am if you encounter me

Xd

[manic ravine]

he will never

unless you invite

[tranquil geyser]

its pretty obvious (|| i named planets after myself xd||)

[manic ravine]

the odds of running into another player randomly by chance are like, lightning hitting somebody twice in their life

[placid relic]

Lol

I've found a system that a player found a year ago

[weary hollow]

what is this for?

[tranquil geyser]

I also named a system EEEEEEEEEEE

For fun xd

[manic ravine]

that would scare me

[placid relic]

I don't name systems anything

[manic ravine]

i found one named "if you read this you suck"

[tranquil geyser]

Lamo

Kind of funny ngl

[tranquil geyser]

Address?

[manic ravine]

sure thing boss

let me get that for you

[placid relic]

[elfin sleet]

Hey im new to this game and was wondering what's a good way to start?

[elder wing]

My people, I'm a bit confused about this game. I've tried several times, let's say once per year in the last 3 years or so. Got NMS, had fun for 5 or 6 hours, and then lost all interest. This has happened each and every year since purchase, I cannot for the life of me get more than 8 hours of playtime without losing all interest. I think the "almost infinite amount of planets" kinda thing is damn amazing, but I just don't.. get it? I visited several galaxies in my current playthrough (I'm at 8 hours again, fresh start), and I just cannot seem to understand what keeps people playing above that playtime. I'm 100% not hating, I'm trying my best to actually enjoy this game. I visit planet X, I find the same resources but with different randomly generated plants / animals / rocks, sometimes other resources for one specific thing I'll never use, and that's it.

What keeps you guys playing? Am I missing something? I'm flying around, looking for new galaxies / planets, I already got a pretty alright multitool, I see no reason to get another ship because mine seems to work just..fine? It just somehow doesn't click for me, and I feel like I'm missing out on something. The quests are stale and boring and probably just a "here's something to keep your attention" kinda thing, because it seems to be more sandboxy. Is NMS maybe just not for me, even though it's a damn good game?

[plucky ether]

For me it's the corvette builder lol

I think corvette building and base building are two of NMS's strongest points in which it truly excels, rather than just being "good enough"

these aspects of the game tend to reward so-called "creative types" more however

The game's general vibes and comfy community also help keep me playing

[elder wing]

Yeah I see that this is more of a "zoning out" and cozy kinda game, I get that aspect and I enjoy this one, but I somehow feel a bit lost

The corvette building seems to be new, I imagine this is the ship builder, or?

[plucky ether]

Yeah this is the ship building update that's relatively new

[plucky ether]

This is an open-ended, open-world sandbox game. I recommend doing the main story at your own pace, while also setting little objectives for yourself

NMS is, imo, best enjoyed when you go off and do your own thing

[elfin sleet]

What about earning some money?

[plucky ether]

Earning money quickly early on can be a little tough but that can be a good objective in its own way

[glacial cave]

Back in early years I just explored and played through all the new content whenever there was some.

Then I had a period of time where I built a lot. Then another period when I just did the weekend missions and nothing else.

Then I had a time of actively participating in in-game community hosted meetups and minigame things or colonies.

Then I focused on the lore and story and collecting every piece of lore.

Nowadays I'm pretty passive with the game. I hop on every now and then to do random things. Whenever an update drops, I collect and find whatever it brings to the game. Whenever an expedition drops, I play through it.

But overall these days I'm not as active as before. I used to play NMS near daily through 2016-2022

[elfin sleet]

I mean atm im earning some what between 200-500 per scan

[jaunty nimbus]

crap. i cant get into my save files...mods are all current. just keeps dumping back to desktop with no error message.

[elder wing]

You can get some kind of an upgrade for your scanner, I did that a few hours ago, I now get ~6-7k per scan most of the time

[plucky ether]

Yeah that's not very high! Get some scanner upgrades

[placid relic]

Get more

[plucky ether]

you can easily get 30k+ per scan with more upgrades

very easily

[placid relic]

I'm personally to 80k per fanua

[elfin sleet]

Where do I get those?

[plucky ether]

have you visited a space station yet?

[fallen fjord]

Hi

[placid relic]

Yo

[fallen fjord]

What's the next update

[glacial cave]

Also between these activities I've done lotsa more I can't even remember anymore. But yeah, there's stuff to do.

At one point I had a goal of building an automated mining facility for each mineral

[fallen fjord]

And is thist the 10th anniversary update

[glacial cave]

Nobody knows. We'll see on wednesday

[plucky ether]

Other than the creative aspects, NMS doesn't work well in my opinion if you keep doing the same kinds of things over and over. Most of the missions can be a little repetitive and shallow, and it can be a good idea to keep moving between doing different things

[fallen fjord]

They should do something massive for 10 th anniversary right

Man I need civilization automation

[elder wing]

Do upgrades actually stack? I'm still unsure if that even works. Let's say Multitool laser-shooty-rocks thing. I get Upgrade B, A, and S, all for the same thing, to be more efficient with farming.. rocks, or minerals, or whatever. Do these upgrades of the same kind stack?

[fallen fjord]

Like I can build civilizationa nd workers and automate and go for war with other players

[plucky ether]

Upgrades stack up to a point, you can have three upgrade modules per technology type, as well as some blueprint tech modules that don't count towards the limit

[elfin sleet]

Just got here

[jaunty nimbus]

yes but only like 3 or they get overloaded

[plucky ether]

You can buy scanner upgrades on the space station with nanites - there is a technology merchant on the second floor. However, nanites can be tough to come by in the early game

[glacial cave]

Yeah they stack. You can have max of 3 similar upgrades per thing.

Then there's the adjacency bonus if you arrange the modules to touch each other. And if you put an upgrade to the purple slot it multiplies its individual effects

[elfin sleet]

I have 187 nanites haha

[glacial cave]

Little puzzle of mix and matching

[limpid magnet]

Hi Yutaka

[plucky ether]

yeah that's normal early on
until you get somewhat later in the game, nanites will probably be tough to get quickly

[elder wing]

Yeah that one I just noticed in my current run, I can stack similar upgrades in a line so they all connect in blue boxes

[sinful spire]

hey everyone

[blazing wraith]

Yes, and if in your slots adjacent, get an "adjacency" bonus, so that is a whole little minigame in its own right. Of course, there can only be 3 upgrades, so you eventually want all of them to be S, and arranged so that you get the best bonus. Plus there are "supercharge" slots, making optimization even more challenging.

[plucky ether]

Raising your standing with the various alien races gets you discounts on tech upgrades in space stations, but this will also take time

as you have to do missions for them to consistently raise standing

[elder wing]

I feel like that's the usual min maxing for endgame kinda stuff again, but I'm already playing around with these kinda things after a few hours, because.. well there's no rules as we all know

[glacial cave]

There is also an optimal way of arranging the modules. Some benefit from a plus sign type of arrangement around the core module, some from tightly packed square arrangement. There's a lot of moving and shuffling to do if you wanna really max out the numbers

I think the bot here had a command for helpful image of such arrangements? Or was it just someone posting an image?

[elfin sleet]

So should I just follow the thing bottom right when I start the game or?

[plucky ether]

It's not a bad idea to do parts of the main story early on yeah

[glacial cave]

Yes. Also pause menu and LOG has primary and secondary mission tabs. Focus on the main missions

[plucky ether]

I wouldn't say that NMS excels in its main story, but it is decent. It is also necessary to do it to unlock certain things

[true totem]

i had to start over cause i lost my old account but thankfully its not that big of deal starting over in this game, 2 runs intiially are never the same

[jaunty nimbus]

looks like thats what i have to do now. i cant get into my save. i have mods but they all updated. was working two nights ago. this last save is from 2o21 i think and i really dont want to start over and lose my fleet

[lethal valley]

Bzzzzz

[blazing wraith]

I think it is in one of the !faqs (run !faq in #bot-spam ; there are lots of in-depth topics)

[plucky ether]

I think it's good practice to back up your saves manually

[tall swift]

I really hope they do a redux of the expedition that gives you the autophage heads

Ideally they should make expeditions all replayable

[blazing wraith]

Absolutely; early on (in the very first patch ever, NMS wiped out my very first save) but even now with cloud saves ( Steam wiped out my Grand Tour save in a glitch, after I had over 225 galaxies visited. Sigh, my last backup was just over 200, and I lost enthusiasm to continue...)

[limpid magnet]

wsp the original OD [PC]

[unborn bolt]

I think I know the answer to this, but are the menu musics different depending on your platform? I'm an Xbox player and I just booted NMS up on my PC and I don't think I've ever heard this main menu track

I don't see why they would be different but I'm a little surprised

[limpid magnet]

i might have turned off my music, but i dont remember any music in the menu

but i probably turned off my music audio

[plucky ether]

Yeah I've had Steam cloud mess up data on other games

[limpid magnet]

i do that in a lot of games i play

[lethal valley]

No the title menu has music

[unborn bolt]

there's this cool sort of dark synth track playing

[blazing wraith]

I looked at the data, it was the right size but all nil characters.

[unborn bolt]

ig dark isn't the right word

Dramatic, almost

[limpid magnet]

cosmic

?

perhaps

[unborn bolt]

Yeah

[plucky ether]

So yeah definitely good practice to back up manually. Not just for NMS but things in general that you care about

On Windows the save data is in %AppData%/Roaming/HelloGames/NMS

on Linux for Steam users, it should be in Steam's compatdata folder, wherever that is for your specific install

[jaunty nimbus]

i did make backups, but whatever the issue is, its not letting those load either

i can start a new game

[plucky ether]

wack

I wonder if the mods have anything to do with it

[icy rivet]

I didn't touch it

[jaunty nimbus]

probably. i can start new game, but trying to load the current one just make the game close

mod always makes me think of the 1960's british fashion😆

i didnt even build a new truck. i was busy with other stuff and never touch thats stuff

[manic ravine]

What keeps me playing? Because I play god , and I always fuck with the game files , and I do stupid shit

And I have Asperger's

[plucky ether]

I think this game is perhaps well enjoyed if you have ADHD lmao

There's always something else to do in NMS, which means you can jump to doing something different if you're bored

[manic ravine]

I'm a god with ADHD

I also like to kill wildlife

And NPCs

I burn things

Pyromanic

[jaunty nimbus]

when i enter a settlement-
gek bro-" gdghftgjd?"
( who tf are you)
me- "Im the interloper about to hook yo shit up!"

[manic ravine]

And you can burn things in the game

So therefore I like it

[plucky ether]

You can build things in this game, which is part of why I like it

actually the main reason I like it.

[manic ravine]

I just wish you could burn wildlife and it actually turn crispy

And you can eat it

And it be cooked

Well done

[pseudo thunder]

In DST You can do exactly that. Burn wildfire and eat its crispy meat

[manic ravine]

Burn the damn trees

It smells good

Burning tree I mean

I once visited a wildfire and watched

Was in awe

[plucky ether]

Except for corvette and base building, and the the chill vibes of just exploring space, I don't think there's actually a whole lot that NMS does exceptionally well

Rather, it's good enough at most of the things that it tries to do, and it tries to do a lot. The complete package ends up being more than the sum of its parts

[manic ravine]

Irl I visited an active wildfire and just watched

[young urchin]

i have an itch right now

its to go corvette building

[jaunty nimbus]

there is a lotion for that.

[young urchin]

in creative mode

[young urchin]

not that type of itch

[manic ravine]

Fire will make you less itchy

[plucky ether]

also makes you more dead

[young urchin]

depends on how long you stay in it

[plucky ether]

and how big and how hot it is

[jaunty nimbus]

Ghost Rider takes over the Fiery Phoenix, sets the galaxy ab;aze...

[prime spoke]

Teach a man to light a fire and he will be warm for a day
Light a man on fire and he will be warm for the rest of his life

[manic ravine]

Am I messed up for going to an active wildfire and watching

[prime spoke]

Nah

I do similar shit

[plucky ether]

I think you're fine as long as your interest with fire doesn't extend to actively causing harm lol

[manic ravine]

Id also watch a volcano if possible

[prime spoke]

Except its too cold for wildfires here so

My village makes do with firebombs

Similar result...

[manic ravine]

I want to go to an active volcano and throw a water bottle into it

I have the unused flamethrower on my multitool

[jaunty nimbus]

can we get that in the regular game now?

[plucky ether]

watch as the bee update ends up being a total non-sequitur for a flamethrower update

[prime spoke]

I have a landing gear on my multitool

Just in case I'm stuck without a ship

I can lift off

[plucky ether]

Where I'm at in game, I'm rarely far from a ship

If I ran out of launch fuel, I can call another ship since I have multiple active 🙃

or just wait for the launch thruster auto recharge

[young urchin]

or just use a corvette so you dont have to worry about landing

[manic ravine]

I hate bees

Burn them

[plucky ether]

or you can use a corvette and just never land on a planet yeah

[young urchin]

this is good news mark

we can finally be bees

[manic ravine]

I play pyro in TF2 so yeah burn the bees

[limpid magnet]

Corvette?

[jaunty nimbus]

dat bloom is crazy

[manic ravine]

Why is there no bombs in this game?

There's only geology cannon and plasma

But not remote detonate

[limpid magnet]

it pretty tho

but

those detonite

remiotely

kinda

you're far away

[manic ravine]

Remote detonate bombs could be really cool

[limpid magnet]

but what would they be useful for

getting recources like TNT?

and I feel like they would make sentinels go wild

[manic ravine]

Good

[prime spoke]

Explosives are always fun to use

That's their use

Fun

[manic ravine]

Blow them up too

[prime spoke]

Happiness

Whimsical happiness

[manic ravine]

The sentinels won't see it coming

[prime spoke]

Rocket Jumping in NMS

[plucky ether]

Ah yes the pizza box

[limpid magnet]

well

actually

if they made bombs

[young urchin]

had to click on the picture to even figure out what the fuck i was looking at

[limpid magnet]

i would make a b2 spirit corvette

[manic ravine]

Id put so many of them

[limpid magnet]

and use them that way

[manic ravine]

Enough to crash my PC

[limpid magnet]

lmao

[manic ravine]

And ruin my save

On purpose

[limpid magnet]

well

to crash your laptop

that would take a lot

bc its pretty strong

[young urchin]

typa shit lockheed martin engineers submit when their higher ups ask for a bigger plane

[zinc loom]

Thats what they called me in high school

[manic ravine]

Enough to crash my Xbox then because I have both Xbox and PC

[limpid magnet]

Northrop Grumman*

or actually

no

Boeing

[manic ravine]

Enola gay

The fat man

[young urchin]

well i was looking at it from like a bomber airplane perspective

[manic ravine]

I want one of those

[limpid magnet]

there was a giant planet i think northrop wanted to make that had f4 phaontoms attatched to the hardpoints like missles lmao

[jaunty nimbus]

and little boy

[manic ravine]

Nuclear weapon

[limpid magnet]

i gotta build that in NMS

[jaunty nimbus]

atomic

[tulip oar]

good morning

[limpid magnet]

if i can get aroundf the part limit

[manic ravine]

Tsar bomb in nms

[plucky ether]

there do be mods for removing the part limit

[jaunty nimbus]

there is a mod for that if your savvy

[young urchin]

dont let the gek near this

[limpid magnet]

NMS players aren't creative enough with the engine limits. We have minecrafters making all the complex thingamajigs that break bedrock or something meanwhile ive never seen NMS players trying to use glitches besides the under the planet one

[gloomy remnant]

What if the Atlas itself can't handle hosting the entire universe anymore, so it collapsed itself into a single planet that is Light No Fire in a new simulation

[manic ravine]

Liar you've seen all the shit I do

[plucky ether]

||The Gek are just funny merchants now because of how their brains were rewired, I wouldn't be worried about it||

[jaunty nimbus]

saywhatnow?🤨

[limpid magnet]

you think the atlas is at the core of that planet then?

[gloomy remnant]

It looks similar

[manic ravine]

You lie about that dude

[limpid magnet]

but using mods, not vanilla

[young urchin]

yeahhh but you can never be too careful

[gloomy remnant]

Like a weaker version of the Atlas

[manic ravine]

I don't care you still lie

[jaunty nimbus]

have you not seen glitchbuilding?

[bold oxide]

does being able to land on asteroids and build a base count? I can do that

[limpid magnet]

[limpid magnet]

you can?

[manic ravine]

Lying thru your teeth

[bold oxide]

also the systems i visit can have up to 7 suns

[limpid magnet]

i said that that was the exception

[jaunty nimbus]

how do you land on an asteroid?

[manic ravine]

No there's more

[limpid magnet]

what if i have no teeth?

[manic ravine]

Dentures

[limpid magnet]

that shouldnt be possible

[bold oxide]

lol

idk what to tell you

GET GOOD

[limpid magnet]

suns?

[manic ravine]

Get bad

[limpid magnet]

I got suns

[manic ravine]

I'm bad

[bold oxide]

ppl are doing far more than you think lol

[limpid magnet]

4 suns, even if this isnt 4 suns

[manic ravine]

I'm really really bad

[limpid magnet]

uh

i dont hink thats possible

to be bad

at NMS

its not something you can win

[manic ravine]

No I'm bad

[gloomy remnant]

I wish the planets from space would get a overhaul to look better

[limpid magnet]

or be really skilled at

its just peacful

[bold oxide]

i dont have a limit on how far i can places parts, i can legit build an entire base and corvette the size of nexus

[limpid magnet]

me too

[bold oxide]

INSIDE OF NEXUS EVEN

[limpid magnet]

w h a t

[gloomy remnant]

Star Citizen does a good job with their planets visual from space

[jaunty nimbus]

you said "never seen them using glitches except the under the planet one." there is way more to glitchbuilding than getting under the planet. some of the bases, ships and constructs are absolutely ridiculous

[limpid magnet]

indeed. so does elite dangerous

[gloomy remnant]

True

[bold oxide]

dude kept pushing me so i bulit a corvetee around him with no hatch

also my base limit is 100k

[manic ravine]

He hasn't seen all the bullshit I do

[limpid magnet]

same difference

[jaunty nimbus]

i was building base stuff on my corvette.

[limpid magnet]

i HAVE

but i was talking vanilla

not MODS

[manic ravine]

No you haven't

[bold oxide]

i have a corvette with 21k parts

[limpid magnet]

i need this. I have a 20k part base

[manic ravine]

I can mess the game up even vanilla

[bold oxide]

my base upload limit is 30k

[manic ravine]

Wtf is that

[limpid magnet]

idk where my other photos of it went

i lost them

[limpid magnet]

skyscraper

my base

[manic ravine]

It's amazing

[limpid magnet]

it has floors

and furniture

and all that

[manic ravine]

I wish we had elevators

[limpid magnet]

yes

thats all i wanted

but no

[manic ravine]

Glass elevator

[limpid magnet]

i had to make stairs wind all the way up it

[manic ravine]

So you can watch it go up

[forest comet]

Maybe the bees will help us elevate? 🤞

[proper tendon]

Big ole capital ship not sentinel waz it called again?

[manic ravine]

Watch it be something stupid

[jaunty nimbus]

i dont have that many, but id did make it look like an actual boat

[manic ravine]

Last time we got an emote it was something really dumb

[limpid magnet]

you know

[bold oxide]

love it

[limpid magnet]

when freefalling

if you emote

you just stand up

[forest comet]

True

[limpid magnet]

mid air

its kinda funny

[manic ravine]

The trash expedition..

God

[limpid magnet]

this is that one ghost pirate from spongebob i forgot his name

[manic ravine]

Flying ducthman

[limpid magnet]

yeah

and

ik hes not from spongebob

but

yeah

i cant believe that show is still going

[jaunty nimbus]

the flying dutchman is the name of a ghost ship

[gloomy remnant]

I wish the npcs were flying corvettes because I don't have the creative mind to build one myself

[jaunty nimbus]

and the mary celeste is another

[limpid magnet]

you can trade with players

[gloomy remnant]

I did not know that

[limpid magnet]

yeah its unofficial

but in the anomaly

you two meet up

and one of them swaps in an npc

[manic ravine]

Its sad that's the only way

[limpid magnet]

and you get it from the npc before it leaves

[limpid magnet]

😔 indeed

they need to make the galactic trade center

[manic ravine]

I would donate some ships

[limpid magnet]

a ship shop too

[manic ravine]

With all the upgrades still on them

[limpid magnet]

that players build and upload and sell for more than the parts costs bc they put the labor into it

that would be awesome

NMS 2 ideas

if they ever make that

[manic ravine]

What donating ships?

[limpid magnet]

or

you have that option too

but i bet a lot of players wouldnt

spend millions

just out of the goodness of their hearts

its would make it more like a universe economy

[manic ravine]

Oh it's not out of goodness

[sinful spire]

as someone who played since launch I think we are currently playing NMS 6

[limpid magnet]

like EVE

without the wars

[manic ravine]

It's out of boredom

I'm not good just bored of always being bad

So sometimes do good stuff

[limpid magnet]

i wonder if you classify as a hacker

[manic ravine]

What do you mean?

[limpid magnet]

because you make mods

[manic ravine]

That isn't the exact same thing im not stealing

I'm not using passcode cracking software

[young urchin]

why would they make a NMS 2

[manic ravine]

I'm not breaking into people's bank accounts

So I'm not hacking

[blazing wraith]

There's lots of kinds of hackers, not all steal or the like.

[manic ravine]

I'm just reverse engineering some files

If you can call it that

It's not hard to do

But it's fun

[gloomy remnant]

I also wonder if Light No Fire will have a space backdrop? Because Hello Games should know that someone will mod their way into space

[manic ravine]

I will mod my way to godhood

[bold oxide]

Yutaka isnt hacking! Stay out of my nipnip

[gloomy remnant]

lol

[manic ravine]

I will be using Jedi powers

[gloomy remnant]

Magic in Light No Fire would be cool

[blazing wraith]

cough mind hacking cough

[manic ravine]

I'll have superspeed and super strength, teleportation, flight, laser beams, time travel

[turbid garden]

Im using chatGPT to help me look for lush planets in my favourite galaxy

Its looking for forum posts for coordinates cuz i couldn’t find any in this galaxy

[manic ravine]

I will burn your entire planet

Make it not lush anymore

[turbid garden]

i guess bro

[turbid garden]

Il claim every single part of the planet so you cant build jahahahaha

[manic ravine]

I have powers to override that

[turbid garden]

bruh

worth a shot

[manic ravine]

You haven't seen my final form

[pseudo thunder]

You really can build in others bases??

[manic ravine]

Yes

[pseudo thunder]

That sounds awfull if true

[bold oxide]

@manic ravine I'm trying to surround myself in more and more metal while you work for less and less. Let's end this universe

[manic ravine]

i dont work at all

[tulip oar]

[limpid magnet]

hmm, that ship looks vaugely familiar

[manic ravine]

i just have to wish for something, and its there

[sinful spire]

jedi powers

[bold oxide]

star wars

[limpid magnet]

i was joking

i know a star destroyer when i see one

lol

[manic ravine]

i once made a corvette that looks like a tropical island

with vegetation and that

i wouldnt lie

[bold oxide]

lol my base limit is 100k

[pseudo thunder]

Well anyway the chance someone randomly finding My bases are low i Guess but just the chance of it being able to be modified by a random person feels awfull

[manic ravine]

you trust Ai way too much bro

[pseudo thunder]

Ai said You can't, im trusting You who said You can

[bold oxide]

yeah i know how to add to your base but the person who..allows it would be pretty pissed lol

and i would be one sad laggy ship man

[manic ravine]

does bro think hes always right because he uses Ai

[pseudo thunder]

Are You reading Even?

[manic ravine]

yes

[pseudo thunder]

Read again then

[wheat grove]

👀

[stiff star]

hey chat! I'm graduating HS on Saturday and I wanna put something NMS themed on my hat!

please I beg for suggestions, im thinking of doing Atlas but idk pls help

[tribal meteor]

Are dailies typically possible for solo players, or do you need a group? Have one for hacking a sentinel pillar.

[wheat grove]

all the dailies can be done solo

[tribal meteor]

Dope, thanks 🙂

[weary shoal]

the missions screaming about being incredibly dangerous and that you'll want a full party is still comical

especially when the missions suggesting you bring an organized swat team is basic gardening

[manic ravine]

incredibly dangerous if you play with an ipad

[weary shoal]

like, watch out
this completely stationary plant is actually a word ending threat

[manic ravine]

it make me laugh how the planets are completely stationary

[weary shoal]

are they? i never bothered to sit and stare long enough

[manic ravine]

yes

they really are'

[weary shoal]

how the hell do they generate clipping into each other then 😭

[stiff star]

me and my neutron cannon

[manic ravine]

because thats how shittly they generated

so its possible for two planets to form one

interesting

[stiff star]

I mean, this game is made of 13 year old code

[manic ravine]

its not bad code , well it kinda is

[weary shoal]

elite is 12 years with orbits

that one year really did it 😂

[icy rivet]

@manic ravine Let's not help others to grief people in game, please.

[manic ravine]

but i dont do that to anyone

[quartz trellis]

Um what's going on?

[elfin sleet]

Other then scanning stuff what's another good way to make money?

[limpid magnet]

it make me sad

i dont lke a rotating skybox

ruins my immersion

😔

[quartz trellis]

Trading with other star systems.

[reef snow]

I used to sell salvageable scrap when I started. Easy way to get several million

[quartz trellis]

Salvaging ships too.

[elfin sleet]

How do I do that?

[tulip oar]

at a galactic trade terminal

[quartz trellis]

It honestly doesn't bother me.

[unborn bolt]

hey people ive got a question

If I'm playing NMS on Xbox Play Anywhere, on my pc

does the game update the same time as xbox, or as PC

I would assume the former

[grand sail]

I found Ireland

[vapid plaza]

the update is released and microsoft decides when to allow it to their platforms - including the xbox program you run it under on PC

[thin galleon]

Why is the hype channel gone ballistic? Again? Did i miss an announcement somewhere?

[limpid magnet]

i dont know if i understand the question, but usually the game updates in order of PC, Play Station, X Box, then switch

[vapid plaza]

bee

[limpid magnet]

🐝

[vapid plaza]

update this week

(likely tomorrow, or thurs.. im not sure we saw the cowboy yet?)

[thin galleon]

Uhuh. Any idea whats in it other then apparently a bee?

[marsh swift]

Yo everyone, Anyone have egg for ship pls ?

[limpid magnet]

Ok good night chat

[grand sail]

one of these days I'll find a paradise planet that doesn't have trash on it (there was no salvageable scrap labelled)

[limpid magnet]

yeah theres some stuff more than that but i forgot lol

[turbid garden]

whats the InExCor discord?

[unborn bolt]

Xbox has this thing called the Play Anywhere program, so if a game is enrolled in that (NMS is), and your xbox/microsoft account is signed in on a PC, your "license" to the game transfers to PC. You don't have to buy it again

I was wondering how updates work, since technically you're working off of Xbox's systems, yet you're still playing on a PC. Lodestone cleared everything up (thanks lodestone)

[thin galleon]

Hopefully some new corvette parts? I have a few ideas for a new corvette design but need a few parts to make it really work.

[limpid magnet]

uh i dont think that it updates as fast as pc still though, unfortunately

because i have something similar

[thin galleon]

Of course as an xbox pleb i have to wait an extra 3-5 days, but usually it worth it.

[limpid magnet]

it still needs to go through x box licensing and that takes different times to verify

[limpid magnet]

hmm im unsure if they're adding more corvette parts

maybe in the Voyagers: Part two update though

[unborn bolt]

i'm an xbox pleb too

my console just happened to die on me like

literally a few hours ago

I just got lucky ig

[unborn bolt]

yeah I figured. Just wanted to make sure though

Thank you

[limpid magnet]

ive had three laptops die on me. wanna know what they all had in common? I tried playing NMS on them

thats not the reason

they ended

probably

but its funny

[marsh swift]

Anyone have egg for ship pls ???

[covert egret]

Hope so

[limpid magnet]

ok gn for real this time chat

[manic ravine]

no sir not gettin out of this chair

[quartz trellis]

I overslept so I'm up lol. But yeah I still noticed on the Atlas path the route line still doesn't appear but I'm managing.

[vapid plaza]

ask in #nms-lfg-or-trades but dont expect an immediate answer.
or go stand on the anomaly and dance in front of the quicksilver dude. 50/50 someone hits you with an egg.

[marsh swift]

Ty

[quartz trellis]

I still feel bad for not being able to say thanks to that one guy who gave me a companion egg. I only used emotes due to not knowing how to open chat.

[vapid plaza]

You need to build the next seed for the atlas path to update / unless you're at atlas eternal, in which case, the quest is done.

you may not have learned the next seed's blueprint yet... they are unlocked as you hit achievements

last seed requires 50 (?) achievements

Spit it out 😛 I'm going to bed.

[quartz trellis]

I'll have to see what I'm missing. I'm pretty sure I have it created all that I have in my blueprints and I know for sure I didn't get to the end yet due to certain star systems not appearing.

[vapid plaza]

atlas is not the only requirement to geting purple systems

I see.

[quartz trellis]

Yeah I'm not on atlas eternal.

[quartz trellis]

This felt a bit harsh but I understand.

[vapid plaza]

yeah i see now you were trying to avoid possible spoilers

which i respect.

purple systems are one of those things that's talked about too much to hide...
we typically worry more about lore content and player decisions more than places or items

[quartz trellis]

I've only done the atlas path once and that was a few years ago.

[vapid plaza]

so discussions about what happens to artemis, or who null really is, etc, are relegated to the spoiler channel.

[quartz trellis]

Yeah I try my best to avoid spoilers. I play alot of jrpgs on the side so I know I have to be extremely careful.

[quartz trellis]

Good to know.

[vapid plaza]

and we tend to be cagey about whether you should accept or deny the atlas / this is something we like to encourage each player to determine on their own - but we do typically warn about all the gear breaking when people arrive at that point.

and now i really am going to bed. Sorry about "spit it out" - wasn't meant to be harsh, was meant as playful banter.

[quartz trellis]

It's okay I understand.

[white sonnet]

helloo

no mans sky on 60 fov and 60 fps should be terminated ts looks disgusting

well 75

[weary shoal]

it baffles me that on foot needs 120 fov to look like 70 fov in every other game

[white sonnet]

yeah you not lying

damn my nms crashed wtf

[quartz trellis]

I should start playing rn and get that mission done.

[white sonnet]

what misson lol

mission

[quartz trellis]

Atlas path.

[steady mango]

update trailer tomorrow right?

[halcyon tide]

oh yeah it's wednesday tomorrow 👀

[steady mango]

I place my bets on a sentinel update or an update related to the void mother

[white sonnet]

oh good luck lol

[golden shale]

What if a traveller just pulled a piece out and ate it

[quartz trellis]

I'll have to look at the blueprints carefully and see what I forgotten.

[cunning monolith]

What time does the update usually drop?

[oak jay]

Whenever it's ready

[white sonnet]

should i remake this screenshot with a all black sentinel ship?

[cunning monolith]

Sorry

[oak jay]

We don't even know when it'll be. Might be tomorrow, might be two weeks from now.

[halcyon tide]

Usually on Wednesdays
So there's a good chance we'll get it tomorrow

But as always

It's just a pattern

We can't know for absolutely certain

[oak jay]

Also keep in mind that consoles often get the update later than PC

[white sonnet]

esp for xbox

[oak jay]

Didn't the Corvette update take like... A week for Xbox?

[white sonnet]

i think microsoft be on some shit when it comes to updates

[oak jay]

It's the cert process. They're checking for both Xbox and the MS Store

[white sonnet]

yeah so if the update comes tmr it might take a few days for lil xbox

[oak jay]

I still wonder how the cert process missed that massive graphics issue on the Series X from Remnants

[white sonnet]

just tells you what microsoft is really looking for during the cert process

[oak jay]

Might have been a case of "It worked on my machine"

[white sonnet]

yeah lol

prob did a few tests then just stopped

[oak jay]

Or they used one of their Devkits

Which has vastly better hardware

[white sonnet]

yeah lol

[oak jay]

I'm still convinced it was a driver issue

[white sonnet]

yeah most likely

[slate quail]

do we know approximately when the new update will be released? I'm in pacific timezone but hello games is in GMT timezone

[oak jay]

Not a clue

[tulip oar]

nop

[white sonnet]

yeah idk

[oak jay]

Could be tomorrow. Could be in two weeks.

[violet nexus]

Is the update not dropping today??

[slate quail]

I thought I saw something that said the new update was on the 27th??

[oak jay]

Like I said, who knows?

[white sonnet]

if it comes out in two weeks i guess ill js be taking a break for 2 weeks lol

[violet nexus]

Thought that’s when it’s “supposed to”

[slate quail]

Idk where I got that from lol

[tribal meteor]

Are the items in the quicksilver shop rotating stock, or are they always there?

[slate quail]

theyre always available

[violet nexus]

Always there but new stuff gets added

[oak jay]

Keep in mind, there's always delays for game breaking bugs, or cert issues

[tribal meteor]

Phew. There's some stuff I want so that's good.

[slate quail]

but the current tier of community research determines which items you are able to purchase

[oak jay]

||Remember that you can buy things from the shop and reload your save to keep your QS. Unlocks stay unlocked.||

[slate quail]

??? I didnt know that lol

[tribal meteor]

wait.. that's illegal

[slate quail]

Couldve bought out the whole shop already lol

[tribal meteor]

THERE'S A NADA FIGURINE

[oak jay]

It's not illegal if it's not a premium currency

[slate quail]

The bobblehead figurines give your ship tiny stat boosts as well 😎

[oak jay]

Man, that just puts things into perspective. HG could have easily made QS a buyable currency. But they didn't.

[violet nexus]

Kinda is technically maybe considered a premium currency

[oak jay]

Premium currencies are paid for with real money.

[violet nexus]

So happy about that

[oak jay]

Therefore, QS is not a premium currency

[tribal meteor]

I'm happy there's no MTX in this game. Very much redeemed itself since launch.

[oak jay]

And no DLC

Well

[violet nexus]

Premium currency is just a more rare currency, maybe it’s harder to get or has to be bought with real world money

[oak jay]

Other than that one "DLC" they had on Steam

That was just a reskin of an expedition reward

[slate quail]

I remember 2016 no man's sky... you could only have 1 multi tool and 1 ship. There was no way to save upgrade modules when you got a new multi tool... Multiplayer was technically "enabled" but you couldn't see other players....those were dark times

[violet nexus]

Don’t forget the horrors of the living beings 😭😭

[slate quail]

I recall plenty of creatures had weird walk animations that turned them vertical lol

[violet nexus]

Even flying creatures 😂

[quiet nexus]

So you guys had access to the mystery galaxy that we don't have now

[violet nexus]

You can still access it via someone else

[quiet nexus]

I wonder what it looks like now

[slate quail]

I have a base in galaxy 256 if you want me to taxi you there

[exotic frost]

what multitool is the "rarest"

[quiet nexus]

That wouldn't break my save right?

[violet nexus]

It’s stable to play in but no way to access it without inside help

[violet nexus]

No 256 is safe to play

[slate quail]

No, there's no risk to your save

[oak jay]

I hope they learned their lesson for LNF

[quiet nexus]

I'll hold you to that offer when i get back home ty@slate quail

[oak jay]

I can't wait for LNF

[quiet nexus]

You guys heard about the hive mind leaks ?

[oak jay]

I never trust leaks

[wind sentinel]

Same I get my plumber to fix mine

[quiet nexus]

I try not to be hyped

[slate quail]

What is the leak about?

[wind sentinel]

Bathroom sink

[river phoenix]

#nms-spoilers for discusing leaks

[quiet nexus]

Basically new race and ground combat, it's a dream update essentially

[oak jay]

[violet nexus]

I don’t like leeks

They taste odd

[slate quail]

clearly you dont know the way to cook them

[tribal meteor]

I uh.. I landed on a black and white planet

like.. color is just gone now

This game I swear.

[oak jay]

Anomalous planets

They're so eerie sometimes

Man, I wish we could stick an outboard motor on our exo-skiffs

[violet nexus]

Is it not fast enough for you???? Tsk

To be fair that’s what gek engineering gets you

[oak jay]

I am speed

Wow, 60% sale on PC for NMS

[placid relic]

Should I be aiming for a staff multi-tool?

[tribal meteor]

man those staffs are fucking sick, even if they were worse I'd want one

[placid relic]

Wine-dark?

[oak jay]

They're nice, but not required to have

[tribal meteor]

Sepia-filtered planet lol

[placid relic]

Yeah

[placid relic]

Thought to separate my combat stuff to a rifle one.

-# from my experimental one

[tribal meteor]

What's that staff called anyway? I want one.

[placid relic]

-_-??

[tribal meteor]

The magical walking stick multitool

[placid relic]

There's many of them

[tribal meteor]

u wot

[slate quail]

You guys want some staff parts? I have extras

[oak jay]

They're modular

You construct them from parts

[turbid garden]

Anyone here ever saw a abandond paradise

[vale depot]

I did it. Space Base

[white sonnet]

Banger

And nice sentinel ship

[vale depot]

Zero gravity in there but right below it is the habitable base

[grim flicker]

Looking good

[white sonnet]

sentinel ships are some of the nicest ships ever ngl

[grim flicker]

Man, I wish I could do creative stuff as good as the most of you lol

[bold oxide]

Run

[vale depot]

I like making the corvettes. Found the sentinel ship I liked so I'm base building now.

[white sonnet]

lol just keep doing things until you find something you love

[vale depot]

Here is some funny shit. Just wait for it.

[white sonnet]

lol wtf

[vale depot]

I laughed for a good minute on that

[grim flicker]

now THIS, this is what a Gek settlement needs

[bold oxide]

stop right there! I smell nip nip

[grim flicker]

Yeah I do hydroponics, what of it

[white sonnet]

Damn this corvette is insane

[bold oxide]

I find it simple. It gets the job done. Whatever that is

[grim flicker]

Simple is one word for it

[bold oxide]

Lmao

[grim flicker]

Astonishing is another

[bold oxide]

I miss this one. She lagged way too hard

[white sonnet]

mech builds using corvettes is so nice in this game

[bold oxide]

Indeed. I hunt down Gundam builds

We need more mechs

[white sonnet]

yeah the lil blue mech isnt cutting it

[bold oxide]

Love this one

[ruby beacon]

wish that they werent just flying statues tho

imagine we get hinges

[white sonnet]

gundam is so fire

[ruby beacon]

[white sonnet]

Only one could wish

[bold oxide]

Yeah. Got to get a nicely posed one. Like this

[white sonnet]

not bad lol pretty unique

[bold oxide]

Was fun

[vale depot]

I wish I could do this stuff on switch 2. I'm amazed the bases are working for me

[turbid garden]

I found a shattered moon with a fissured planet lol. is that rare?

[ruby beacon]

you can still download vettes on sw2 afaik

nomansapp.com

[bold oxide]

You can still make some cool ones using the 45 degree trick and decorations

[vale depot]

Nah. Those break my game

[ruby beacon]

get the smaller ones

[idle belfry]

I made an airliner.

[bold oxide]

Aim for ones under 400 parts

Maybe it's 700

[vale depot]

I stick to this

[ruby beacon]

sw2 vette part limit is 100 right?

[vale depot]

Yea

[idle belfry]

This is only 15 or so parts.

My airliner is 100 parts. Which is max

[white sonnet]

Can use nexus to extend it

[idle belfry]

That's excluding the amount of seats I have in it for 1st and regular.

[bold oxide]

Worth checking out if on switch

[idle belfry]

Nah. I wanna use it on Xbox too.

[ruby beacon]

this is gold

makes angling so much easier

[vale depot]

How do you get the 45s on console

[bold oxide]

Fine. If on console

[idle belfry]

I wish there were rounded Habs and walkways instead of the damn cubes.

[ruby beacon]

same as the 90s

[idle belfry]

I don't wanna round them off with windows either.

[lethal valley]

I'd love larger habs and actual ship bridges instead of cockpits

[ruby beacon]

window glitching

[vale depot]

I haven't been able to get one to rotate like that

[ruby beacon]

its finnicky

[vale depot]

Ooooooh

[ruby beacon]

and you aint getting a perfect 45 and 90 too

but yeah you can get as close as possible

[idle belfry]

I think there's a way you can glitch a cockpit into a hab and kinda make a bridge.

[ruby beacon]

if you want

[idle belfry]

But at that point you might as well make freighters drivable.

[ruby beacon]

you can use blender to make the cockpit real small

[bold oxide]

This Vette is like 6k parts

[ruby beacon]

and make a custom bridge from there

and the cockpit basically acts as a seat

[halcyon tide]

how do people just do this

that's insane

[idle belfry]

I wanna see people do it in 100 parts or less. Cheating is an art form and takes talent. Real brains is doing that nonsense in vanilla.

[ruby beacon]

most likely blender

[halcyon tide]

ah

[bold oxide]

What if I make it huge? Can I still pilot the cockpit

[halcyon tide]

[ruby beacon]

cuz i see parts that are scaled down

[ruby beacon]

now that idk

you probably still can

its just the matter of if the prompt shows up or no

[idle belfry]

Some dude had a planetary scanner in his aeron corvette. I was like "ah man you suck. I know you cheated to do your ship"

[ruby beacon]

I dont think its cheating really,

its just a nice QoL to have

[idle belfry]

Yeah, but then I saw some of the angles and I couldn't replicate it.

[bold oxide]

there's plenty out there. Here's an old build of mine. 98 parts

[idle belfry]

Yeah I agree with the QoL stuff. Don't get me wrong, I'll do glitches to make something look more appealing to look at.

[bold oxide]

At the end of the day, do you.

Impress none

[ruby beacon]

real

[pseudo thunder]

in first thought i dont care how others play, but then anomaly gets ultra laggy for some random no one with a ridiculous monster parked and i start to care

[ruby beacon]

honestly brainless behaviour

[idle belfry]

Getting the stupid tail wings to work on this monster was a real migraine inducing pain in the neck to get to work right. I gave up and redesigned the rear.

[bold oxide]

That's one thing.

[ruby beacon]

makes every other blender builder look bad

[jovial solar]

People should be allowed to make crazy Corvettes and express their creativity, even with use of 3rd party tools

[bold oxide]

The way you play shouldn't impact others

[jovial solar]

But HG should do better job at blocking those Corvettes from rendering in other players instances

[bold oxide]

It's not playing it's just being an ass

[jovial solar]

You build a 3k parts corvette? Cool, enjoy it, make screenshots, videos

[bold oxide]

I rarely whip my huge laggy ones out. I play on steam deck which kinda hates nms so I'm careful

[idle belfry]

I agree with that to a point. If someone has a giga monster over 200 parts, nah you don't render.

[jovial solar]

But know for others it will show up as a bare bones corvette from basic parts

[idle belfry]

Hell, series X lags when those base parts exceed 100.

[ruby beacon]

the star destroyers mostly dont render too

only after a while it starts to render

base parts loads pretty slow

compared to regular corvette parts

[bold oxide]

I'm fine with parts loading slow I just don't want to lag

[idle belfry]

I got a lot of seats in my space liner. I have room for around 300 seats.

[ruby beacon]

i want my stuff to load fast so i stay within 300 parts

[idle belfry]

You know it's overkill if you lag on a console

[ruby beacon]

😂

[chrome dagger]

salutations

[idle belfry]

I almost switched to PSN until they announced the price hike and then they got hacked again.

[bold oxide]

Like I don't get the ppl who stand in front of a Vette letting it load for 15mins and then complain about it lol

Clearly you're not lagging

[idle belfry]

I think it's because they're impatient and want to see it.

[bold oxide]

I just move on. I'm not in Nexus to look at Corvettes anyways

[ruby beacon]

corvettes load almost instantly if youre the owner

[sweet scroll]

Wsp guys, I just bought the game is there anything you guys suggest me doing early on?

[ruby beacon]

even a 2k parter loads up fast

[bold oxide]

About that....

[idle belfry]

I sat there and waited for this dudes Corvette to load in when I realized the dude made the Normandy from Mass Defect.

It was almost a 1:1 identical clone.

[ruby beacon]

idk ive tried the 4-5k parts vettes from the bot and they loaded in just fine

just a lag spike when i summon em

[bold oxide]

Normally, yes

[ruby beacon]

but for other players tho

Those takes forever to load

[keen ginkgo]

Thats how it always works for base parts and such

[ruby beacon]

ESPECIALLY the ones that uses a bunch of panels

[idle belfry]

I like to look at other people's ships. Idk. Maybe it's cause I like cars irl. I look at other people's shit when I walk past if it looks interesting.

[bold oxide]

Lol I only say that because I have vettes that take more than 1 min to load. Granted they're the size of the station

[idle belfry]

One of the only reasons I go to anomaly is for ships.

[ruby beacon]

try going to a corvette meetup

pretty fun if you like looking at em

[keen ginkgo]

It loads on your end because its actually on your machine, but for others they have to get it from the servers

[bold oxide]

This bad boy takes over 1 min

[idle belfry]

Looks like the ufo I saw the other day lol

[bold oxide]

It's my baby. Sadly only my friend will ever see it

[idle belfry]

The irony is it look like it lagged out when it vanished.

Ya see, if yall are making vettes that big, we need to have our capital ships be buildable and driveable.

I want to make a custom capital ship.

[ruby beacon]

update the old ones first

they look outdated af compared to the dreadnoughts

[bold oxide]

I know a group who makes crazy bases on their freights

They hope to mainstream it

[idle belfry]

My freighter is pretty massive tbh. It won't load for anyone.

[forest comet]

I feel like they'd be a pain to drive...

[ruby beacon]

it does load, but as soon as the other person summons their freighter, yours dissapear from their view

[idle belfry]

If you drive them, it should open yourself up to pirate raids on your freighter and on the rarest occasions, another pirate freighter warps in to fight you.

[bold oxide]

If decorations loaded... Well better id deck out my entire freight but no point. Gotta be close to notice

[forest comet]

The sensetivity and all that would be crazy slow tho

Or it would feel that way at least

And trying to pilot/land smth that massive would be terrible

Not that I wouldn't love to fly my freighter

[ruby beacon]

turning around takes 5 business days to do

😂

[idle belfry]

I got a massive ship that has over 1200 maneuvering, thing still feels slow, clunky, and chunky. But in fights this monster runs circles around pirates.

[vale depot]

Will a certain door fix my floaty problem?

[bold oxide]

The Vette I fused is bigger than the space station by a lot. It's annoying to drive and I can fly thru planets. I can't land because it takes up a mountain range lol

[forest comet]

Through planets???

[forest comet]

Interesting

[halcyon tide]

biblically accurate star destroyer

[idle belfry]

Size would be too massive to render a planet so yeah this makes sense.

[bold oxide]

Yeah. I crash like 50% of the time if there's trees

[forest comet]

Oh true

[forest comet]

Real

The amount of times I've run into the ground cuz "I have time to slow down right?"...

[bold oxide]

Yep. It's hard to explain but the planet stays looking the same as if you were in space. So when you land on it nothing renders and when something finally does it's just mesh

So the game forces you through the planet

[idle belfry]

If you notice sometimes when frigates fly through your planets they phase through mountains? Same thing would happen when you fly. Game gonna prioritize whichever is more massive. You'd think planet but in reality, it's objects rendered in closest to character (I could be wrong, this is just my observation). This would avoid crashes... mostly.

[forest comet]

Does it also do that if you jump out without landing?

[bold oxide]

I can hide the ship inside of the planet

[forest comet]

Ah I have, that's interesting

[idle belfry]

I had the glitch happen to me where I got ejected inside a planet and I just died.

[pseudo thunder]

i have seen several times freighters spawning just when im reaching a planet and they spawn half inside them xD

[keen ginkgo]

The game doesnt really have a reason for freighters to be driveable

[bold oxide]

It's actually made for that. It has a exobike on it to ride out of it in low atmosphere

[slate jackal]

Where can I get Paraffinium?

[forest comet]

Ooh nice

[forest comet]

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

[idle belfry]

Any lush planet.

[keen ginkgo]

Id think some sort of chart course mechanic would be better, like ordering the crew to put the freighter in a parking orbit over a specific planet

[bold oxide]

My fren elbowed me through a planet. I ended up on the space station for the community build vote area which is how I found it lol good times

Apparently if your game messes up they will just eject you there sometimes

[forest comet]

Not sure how useful that would be tho considering you'd have to get down to the planet still

[pseudo thunder]

it would be AWESOME if we could teleport to X planet from our freighter once the planetary probe have been used

[forest comet]

Have fallen through the floor of one specific outlaw station many a time...

[idle belfry]

See this would be a good alternative to driving. It would give you an excuse to use the stellar gas extracter and make it fricken work right.

[keen ginkgo]

Well of course! Freighters are way too big to land on a planet

[forest comet]

Just so u can assert dominance over your settlement...

[keen ginkgo]

The crashed freighters you see on planet surfaces are massively scaled down

[idle belfry]

Game doesn't have a reason for allowing massive vettes but here we are.

[bold oxide]

Boo! I must sleep... More crazy vettes tomorrow, goodnight folks

[keen ginkgo]

And it doesnt without the usage of external tools

And the massive vettes are laggy for pretty much everyone who isnt the one using it

[bold oxide]

I love this fusion of vettes I did. Too laggy tho. Put on ice

[ruby beacon]

not necessarily if the part count is low

[idle belfry]

I think legit, 100 parts is a fine maximum.

[keen ginkgo]

Like, using rescaling?

[ruby beacon]

You can have a vette thats the size of a station and only have 10 parts

[ruby beacon]

Yes

[keen ginkgo]

I feel like that would still have some rendering issues

[ruby beacon]

yeah the render distance

but it doesnt lag

most likely it just wont load

instead of lagging

[idle belfry]

That's still using external tools. Vanilla won't let you, but I wish there were larger parts, and more parts.

[ruby beacon]

i didnt deny using external tools

just pointing out that not all massive ships cause lag

its all about the part count

[keen ginkgo]

I really dont think corvettes need to be the size of freighters, or even frigates

[ruby beacon]

a small 100 part ship vs a scaled up 100 part ship loads in the same time

[keen ginkgo]

Granted, thats not counting decorations

[ruby beacon]

yep

decos loads pretty slow in my experience

Especially base parts

[idle belfry]

100 parts is a perfect amount for vanilla without console lag.

Decos take a millennium.

[bold oxide]

True. There's one made with like 80 parts like half the size of the station. It reminds me of the old DOS games with how it renders

[keen ginkgo]

But thats the thing, what's the point of making a big corvette that takes forever to load?

[bold oxide]

700 and under usually is fine for console.

I play PC and console

[ruby beacon]

ps5 can handle these

[idle belfry]

My airliner has 300 seats and over 400 decorations total. Or will have lol

[bold oxide]

So they could add more

Even double would be nice or scaling

[idle belfry]

I hit 106 and I got laggy on a series x
