Problems with VR [Bug]

Hey, I actually bought No Man Sky primarily to play it in VR. I got it to run once, but since then no more success. Do any of you happen to have the same problem and have found a solution? (See the screenshots below)

https://preview.redd.it/79p12sqk4hse1.png?width=1919&format=png&auto=webp&s=26a120e09fac6c1c6675c9f9a5638d03b2bf0b44

I'm using the Oculus Rift 2, AMD Rx7600 with a Ryzen 7 3800x. I think the hardware should be sufficient for this.

Is it worth it for a super casual player? [Question]

I don't own the game, but I'm very curious. One of the things that I truly wonder about is the multiplayer? I have become a very casual player, rarely playing games at all (perhaps a couple of hours a month at most) and when I do, it is usually with others.

Is it worth it for a casual player and is the co-op any good?

Thank you in advance!

Dig I Catch 22... [Question]

So I'm an in a Catch 22 on Dig I

The path to the GPS field Officer needs me to go to a blue star.

I have an Atlandid drive which I need to get to a blue star, but I need Living Glass and Indium to get the Atlantid Drive working.

Indium is only available from planets around a blue star.

How am I going to get my Atlantid Drive working to get to a blue star, if I need to get to a blue star to get the Indium needed, without which I can't get to a blue star?

My Flum is Oxxed.

Help?

Are we still able to get living frigates? [Question]

Will NMS be enhanced/optimized for Switch 2 [Question]

Watching today's Nintendo direct I was expecting a clip of NMS, at least a footnote that it will be optimized for the console, but nothing. Any news on this? I know it's available on Switch now too, but the graphics are dogshit, not the developer's fault, and I'd like to play it while traveling as well. I have it on switch and on Playstation now, and I almost never open it on the switch, because it lags in performance so much.

#

I’m so sorry for this easy question: how long do the version mismatches usually last when an update comes out? [Question]

Me and my 2 best friends all got this game two days ago. Now we can’t play together. I’ve familiarized myself with the NMS website showing which consoles have which versions. Neither the Xbox or PlayStation is able to go back in patches (I don’t think). That being said I think we’re SOL. How long does it usually take for the update to go universally live?

#

Dreadnaught battle frequency increased? [Question]

Has anyone noticed dreadnaught battles happening much more frequently lately? I have been grinding my Outlaw rep doing missions and I get into cycles where every single time I warp back into the pirate system to hand in the mission, the battle triggers. I must have done 10 in a row at one point. Has it always been like this?

Lost my expedition bases [Discussion]

I finished the Titans Expedition last week and logged on today to start the new one. The first thing I planned to do was visit the base I built during Titans and gather some supplies for the next exoefition but my main base and several others just aren't there. I couldn't remember the planet or system name my main base was in but I had an image capture of it with glyphs so I jumped onto an old game save and tried to portal there in order to gather the system/planet name so I could submit the missing bases to HG. When I input the glyphs it gave me an error saying: "Atlas Transport Error - Location Corrupted - Approximating Destination" So I'm hoping this is a temporary glitch and that I will get my base(s) back. It saying "corrupted" kind of gives me hope that its something that'll get fixed.

PC requirements (2025) [Question]

Hey everyone, so I am currently building a brand new gaming rig for the first time in 10 years and its main purpose is for me to play No Mans Sky on the highest settings. Looking up the specs for No Mans sky it looks like it still shows the requirements back when it first got released ( a dark time i know)

Suffice to say NMS is now much more awesome and as such probably requires much better specs now to run on highest quality.

Anyone got a rough idea of what kind of specs one would need to play NMS on highest settings in April of 2025? Thanks in advance!

Here are my specs below:

Motherboard: Asus Rog Strix B850-A Gaming Wifi

CPU: Ryzen 7 9700x

GPU: Sapphire Pure Radeon RX 9070 16GB

RAM: 64GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5 6000MHz CL30

Power: Corsair RM 850 GOLD

Case: Corsair 3500x

Cooler: Corsair iCue LINK Titan 360 RX LCD Liquid AIO

They Who Returned help [Bug]

So I have the mission They Who Returned and it's saying to go to the highjacked source. I've reset the mission about 5 times now and everytime I go to the system it tells me, it has an Atlas thing and no hijack source. I'm stuck trying to find this harmonic camp so I can obtain the scan harmonizer. I've already been to a bunch of harmonic camps farming sentinel ships on other dissonant planets. Also the system that the mission tells me to go to is never dissonant.

Legendary fish [Question]

I’m trying to catch all of the legendary fish. I already have a few. When I consulted with the wiki, I noticed that some of the fish I already have are not shown in the list on the wiki.

#

Game idea [Fan Work]

This is quite a vague idea for something which I think would add a lot to the game. I haven’t played in a few years but want to get back into it. In my opinion there is a bit of a trouble with progression, you can fairly easily get the maxxed ships and items without much investment. What I propose is having a ‘random’ item system - maybe ship components or modules, maybe tool modifications which are drops or rewards for quests. Therefore you can always be searching for an improvement. Maybe a ship mod can roll a couple of a list of stats like for example between 1-30% speed increase, these stats would be set up so the higher end is much more rare and it is virtually impossible to roll a perfect set of mods. And the mods themselves would be fairly hard to obtain. Please let me know what you think of this sort of idea.

#

possible bug? [Question]

So I just started a new game bc my old one just got into another galaxy so I wanted to experiment with some things but I also wanted to change my ship… I went to the station but no NPCs came. I went to an outpost and I saw ships but they never landed. They just kept circling the outpost. Is this a bug or am I just now discovering how idiotic I am?

Wild west type build [Suggestion]

I have completed a wild west typish town.. tons of stuff I packed in used 2999 parts so i could upload. Tons of hidden things and secrets. Find the illegal underground nipnip bud growery, the hotel, the barber shop, market/store, church, jail, the two mechanics, bars, restaurant, cemetery, hobo camp, and living houses.

Don't forget to use your scanner near one end of the town and those hobo vagrant autophages and there hobo camp will show up.

Come stop by and visit. Let me know what you think. My settlement is right next door, the autophage at the end of the town, a trading post, and two small buildings nearby with landing pads brings a lot of activity to the area.

Settlement Help - Bugged quest? [Bug]

I started a new save and was working on the settlement quest. In between constructing the Overseer’s office and having a visitor, I changed the settlement to a planet I liked more.

The quest says I have a visitor I need to retrieve from the Overseer’s office. However this new settlement doesn’t have that built yet, and I don’t have the option to construct it.

Has anyone run into this issue before?

Finally, Home [Screenshot]

Was just about to log off and give up for the night. One last system, I thought. I jump, red hue statem, outlaw territory, the usual toxic, radiated spheres drifting around.

Then, in the distance… something different. A glimmer. Almost like a blue marble floating in the crimson void. And that’s it. That’s the moment. I think I finally found home.

I’m going to keep the glyphs to myself for a while and settle in. But I’d love to share it later.

Soft locked in Expedition 18 [Question]

I’m fairly new to the game and ended up swapping trashing my Atlantid drive in exchange for a different drive. Am I just locked out of the rest of the expedition or can I somehow get another Atlantid drive?

#

Bone Broth recipe [Information]

In phase 4 of the Relics expedition you have to make bone broth. You have to process two fossils in the nutrient processor (one at a time). You will get two batches of softened bone marrow

If you then process both batches of softened bone marrow together in the nutrient processor you will get bone broth

If you wanna knock out two milestones at a time you can make bone broth at cronus’s station in the anomaly and then feed him said bone broth.

I love you.

Stuck in a system with no antimatter, chromatic metal, or stellar metals. [Question]

Hi, looking for help to warp out of the system I’m stuck in.

I’m at the beginning of expedition 18 (my first one) and I’m trying to bring the excavated artifacts to the Galactic Paleontology Society.

I warped one system over, but didn’t bring enough warp cells. I’m now stuck in this dissonant system where there are no stellar metals, and there is no antimatter or chromatic metal at the space station or other trade terminals.

How can I warp out of this system??

Thanks in advance.

#

Idea [Suggestion]

I made a base during the expedition where I found my bonefish and I’ve seen a few people visit, but it would be kind of nice to see how many people have visited while I’m offline too. Maybe like a guestbook or something? I want to help as many people as I can since so many players have helped me.

Anywaaaay, if anyone wants to visit it it’s “Bonefish Bay Bait & Trade” on Ligart Prime, where the 3rd site is. It’s a work in progress, but it has been fun! If anyone has ideas, let me know!

(Expedition 18) Rendezvous 5 - Parking and Museum [Information]

Well, after a considerable amount of blood, sweat, and tears, my Rendezvous 5 base is complete enough that I have uploaded it to the servers.

Theoretically, it’s right next to the final rendezvous point, with landing pads, a teleporter, trade terminal, storage containers, and a lil museum (which I’m in the process of expanding but fossils keeps disappearing on me). I’ll also be adding refiners, just need to grab some resources to build them.

I’m saying theoretically because I don’t know if it actually did upload or not, or if there’s an exclusion zone similar to planet portals.

If you get to the rendezvous point and see it, let me know 🙂

#

Is it Possible to Recover from this Expedition Mishap? [Question]

I left my traveler unattended in his ship. Bad idea. Anyway, he was hanging out on Noha 39/W6 with full exosuit/spaceship inventories and functioning multi-tool. I came back to find him struck down by toxicity. He respawned outside his ship by a grave marker. Also: The ship was full
The ship suffered critical damage
The multi-tool was damaged
The exosuit was empty

Did weather likely take out the ship leaving him to perish from the elements? If so, why would the ship inventory restore instead of the exosuit? And how would that impact a multi-tool?? Lastly, could I have lost anything that would prevent completion of the expedition? I know I lost all my fishing lures, but I don't recall what some of the other rewards were.

Explain this to me like I'm your dumbest but sweetest friend - why does moving this module change the damage potential like this? [Question]

Need to collect poop! [Question]

The only milestone I have left in this expedition is "Nose in the Dirt" -- poopscooping.

I found a spot with a bunch of animals, and I've fed them -- both by direct interaction, and by throwing food pellets on the ground. They're eating -- they all get the green + over their heads -- but I've gotten only one pile of poop so far. I need 20! I've been patient. It's easily been 15 minutes that I've hung out in this area. The green + aren't going away, and the Play-Doh™ factory is not operating.

Does anybody have any tips or advice? Please! I'm desperate for some earthy soft-serve.

Placed base parts are slightly off-level. What to do? [Question]

I've never encountered this before. Starting to build a minor base. Installed the base computer and claimed the land. All good. But as I begin to lay basic parts, I can tell right away they're not quite level. I tested this near water, and as I extended floor panels outward over the water, eventually I'm standing in the water. This isn't wave action mind you, it's a placid pond.

I've never been one to build uniquely such as with free placement, or axis rotations. I'm very much a box builder. So there shouldn't be some setting I set previously that's still in effect.

This test pier is about 6' above water line at the other end.

How is this a thing, and can someone tell me what's going on?

TOO MANY Pirate and Hostile Scan Encounters [Suggestion]

Is anyone else completely frustrated by these? I can’t go more than 5 minutes of play during the expedition without a “Hostile Scan” or “Threat Detected” notification. It’s insane. These should be 1 every 20-30 minutes tops! Really makes the expedition unplayable at times.

Is anyone else unable to find any fossils? [Question]

Keep in mind I've only played this game for about a month so I still really have no idea what I'm doing, but this Relics update just happened and I started the quest and got some fossils on a planet, but I forgot what planet it was or if there is any way to get back there. And I can't find any fossils on any other planet. Help?

James Hall Bone Museum [Build]

Take a load off on the pier and watch the dinosaur fauna of the island in their natural habitat, or see if you can find all ten silver blobs hidden around the island and museum!

Just a heads up, it gets a little stormy here and it turns out there’s a titan worm that likes to stop by from time to time. Damn near crapped myself while building this base. In Eissentam galaxy/ Planet Isla Nublar/ address on the last pic if you’d like to visit

#

Xbox player. All my storage container contents are listed for every processor/refiner? [Bug]

I’m not sure I’m explaining this right. Basically, if I am in my base that has the storage containers, all of the inventory from the containers is accessible when I try to load items into a refiner or nutrient processor. Before this update, only the items in my exosuit, starship, or freighter were accessible to load?

So every time I try to make anything, I have to go through literally ALL of my inventory items to get to what I want.

It’s kind of annoying.

Am i dumb or is it a bug ? [Question]

So i finish the story line and decided to reset the simulation. I had to choose from four color of galaxy’s and choose the green. It load and I’m spawning in the eissentam galaxy. The only problem was that I had a sentinel ship so repairing it was impossible. I manage to use a portal and go back to an old base in euclid on a dissonant planet to repair my ship. I then teleport back to the base a I make on my spawn point in eissentam because i spawn on a paradise planet but when I get back to the galaxy map in space it says that I am still in euclid …. Do I need to do something or is it a bug ? Am a bit confused. Thank’s!

Backpacking To Perfect Home [Question]

Hello! I just started the game a few days ago and I’m loving it! Unfortunately I definitely am hyperfixated on building a base, and I want it on a beautiful planet. Someone shared their glyphs to a great planet and I’d love to go there and build but I don’t have the glyphs unlocked in game to go there myself.

I was buying a few things at the quicksilver store and had an idea. What would happen if I bought a bunch of stuff, switched to my other save, collected it there, then returned to my first save and reloaded my restore point.

The answer is you get everything on both saves and you get your quicksilver back. If you don't have a second save, it will probably work the same with your expedition save. That said, I don't think I'll use it again. Kind of takes the fun out of Nexus missions and I already own pretty much everything I want anyway. But figured I'd share in case anyone wants to use it.

Settlements & Cities Update [Discussion]

With the endless amount of content Hello Games team pumps out, how would we feel about an update to settlements and possibly the addition of cities?

Personally, I feel settlements lack in variety and options to do. Interactions are almost always around the settlement terminal for a quick decision. Citizens often request the same sets of buildings so you will end up with many duplicate buildings. The ability to place down some decorations around the settlement and maybe some more building variation would be a good way to allow a bit more of a personalized feeling.

I’m torn on the idea of cities. I’ve seen the idea floated around before by others. I can see the vision for it but also see how it could seen as just another settlement but without owning the city. Would putting features a city would have into settlements be an option? Maybe by allowing settlements to expand their boundaries over time to add extra buildings and population, we could get a more city-like feel. Some of the buildings could become functional besides the passive effects. For example, a trade shop or a weapon/multi-tool shop. The shops could have progressing rewards too. Some multi-tools could be settlement specific and be researched over time.

I don’t expect any of this at all as I know the team is working on LNF and likely have other content updates planned. However, depending on what they have planned for LNF those features implemented in NMS could be another test run for the features. What do you think?

Destroyed Atlantid Drive in Relics Expedition. Help? [Question]

Hi, so I somehow got my Atlantid drive completely destroyed in a dog fight. I just finished phase 2 and now I'm on phase 3 of the relic expedition, which is making me go to a purple star system. Of course, I can't get there now. To repair it, I need Indium, but I apparently need the Indium drive--which I don't have---to get to a system that has any.

I had one repair kit, which I already used.

So anyway, am I basically screwed from forward progress with this expedition? Any tips for how I can most easily move forward from this point would be super appreciated. Thanks!

I just finished my ship and I’ve been flying around talking to as many aliens, as I can, what am I supposed to do what’s your best piece of advice you can give me and what should I start on first?

Lost and Found [Discussion]

I have a funny situation.
I got myself a new PC, and assumed saves are in the cloud so didn't bother copying them manually.
So my son's creative save is still here but my 100+ h save is gone (I still have old hard drive so no worries here)

HOWEVER there is a normal mode 50+ h save present. Sadly I didn't take a look at the date but it might be my very first save that I lost... Not really remember. Either my son deleted it or I did by accident.
I have ONE exotic class ship named "The Fourth Hamster" and my base is made using parts that were here before cubicles happened :D

I am tempted to check it out. The only problem I have here is that on the other save I had bunch of annoying story quests done :P

What grinds my gears! [Discussion]

Please, for the love of Atlas, make buying Research Upgrades at the Anomaly easier! More often than not when I buy an upgrade it kicks me out after the transaction so I have to speak to the dude again.

For bases - what is the criteria for being "inside" a base? [Question]

So been building more bases, and was in a wintry mode the other day - anyway, built up a cool base, but noticed that in certain parts of the base, it takes on the outside effects; Storms, cold, etc - but others it treats you as inside a base and covered from those effects. Just wondering if there is something I am missing about keep all areas of a base pritected from outside weather effects? For context it is on a frost world using stone parts. There are no gaps or anything, in the walls, etc.

Why are the (dame) bones in different parts of the buildmenu [Question]

Did a quick search on Reddit and Google on my phone, couldn't find any question about it si perhaps there's already an asked and answered post about this. Does someone know what the purpose is of having the skeleton bones in two different categories in the building menu? I have the same set of bones under the flag symbol and under the refiner symbol. Is this because you can use them in different ways? (I tried but couldn't find out what this other usage would be).

Abandoned Systems [Discussion]

I had asked chatgpt what it thought about what future updates would look like for abandoned systems, and this is what it said. Future Uses for Abandoned Systems in No Man’s Sky

While abandoned systems in No Man’s Sky currently serve as eerie, resource-rich locations, future updates could introduce new gameplay mechanics that make them more valuable. Here are some possible future uses: 1. Federation Expansion & Strategic Use

Hidden Bases & Outposts → Perfect locations for secret bases, away from active space traffic.

Pirate & Black Market Hubs → Could become ideal for smuggling operations and hidden trade posts.

Military Strongholds → Safe locations for staging fleet operations without interference. 2. Resource & Economic Potential

Salvage & Scrapping Yards → Abandoned stations could become massive salvage zones with rare materials.

Terraforming & System Restoration → Future updates might allow players to "revive" dead systems, restoring planetary life and trade.

Exclusive Trading Posts → They could serve as exclusive trading hubs for rare black-market goods. 3. Lore & Exploration Enhancements

New Storylines & Missions → Abandoned systems might hold clues about past civilizations, mysterious events, or AI-driven remnants.

Procedural Horror Elements → A potential update could introduce haunted or AI-infested stations, adding risk and reward.

Alien Relics & Artifacts → These systems could house ancient structures with hidden lore and rewards. 4. Advanced Federation Use Cases

Warfare & Diplomacy Zones → Future PvP mechanics could designate these as neutral battlegrounds.

Experimental Colonization Projects → Federations might be able to terraform abandoned systems into thriving settlements.

Elite-Level Rewards → Missions in abandoned systems could offer higher-tier loot and credits due to the danger involved.

First Sighting (for me) of the Large Stone Guardian. [Screenshot]

I'd seen others post but this was my first encounter. Larger than I imagined it would be. Last pic my silhouette is barely visible in the glow of the planet on the horizon atop the guardian. Pretty cool. I saw something glowing at the bottom and of course had to go touch it. Released one of the vigilant guardians lol.

At first glance looked like it might be a portal or monolith type plinth to interact with. Activated before I read the prompt.

No Ships Arriving at Stations [Question]

I recently created a new game because of a bug where I was stuck being unable to progress past Priest Entity Nada the first time you speak with him. Now since I restarted I have been able to progress the game normally. However, I wasn't paying much attention to it at first but now I am looking for a replacement for my starter ship and came to realize sitting at a space station wasn't yielding any inbound ships at all and they just stayed empty (besides my own). I am playing on the Xbox store PC version and I'm playing on the Normal mode. Could it be a setting that was changed that caused this (like how I noticed multiplayer was shut off after starting my new game) or could this be a bug? Is there any way around it outside of getting story line ships or finding abandoned ships on planets?

One thought changed my entire perception on NMS [Discussion]

I used to think procedurally generated content was dumb. Like a major aspect of a single game developed around that concept? So boring. Then one day a thought popped into my head: our entire universe is procedurally generated. NMS should be that. Literally one random thought, not a player, YouTuber or games journalist review, changed my whole perception of the game. So I bought NMS and am loving it. My small mindedness almost limited me from a game that is becoming one of my favorites. Probably so many other games out there I have these nonsensical prejudices towards. I’m sure others have had this thought but figured I’d share. Incredible game.

Sentinel Interceptor - what is the advantage, if any, over a standard Starship (same class) [Question]

Other than absolute Cool factor, what is the advantage to Sentinel Starship?

It seems the refueling components and repair components are more limited than a standard Starship... Only getting the sentinel components from a dissonant system. A standard starship has all needed refueling and repair components on just about any/every world.

Experiencing unpredictable crashes [Question]

So, I'm about 40 hours in and started noticing this very annoying "pattern" of the game crashing without any sort of consistency. The times that it takes for the crashes to happen can vary from a couple hours to right as I load into my save, not to mention that it's also DIFFERENT types of crashes. Sometimes it's the game freezing and giving me a shut down message, sometimes it freezes and gives me a "No Man's Sky is not responding", one time it just froze and closed without warning. I can't enjoy the game in peace, knowing that I could just be randomly greeted by it dying on me. No action in particular causes it, either, it's completely random, I could be warping, mining, or just standing still in my base while checking my damn phone, it can and WILL crash. I tried everything, made sure my drives are up to date, verified the game files a gazillion times, disabled Anti-Aliasing, reinstalled the goddamn game, all to no avail. I even tried lowering the texture quality, but that wasn't it. Pease, I beg of anyone who could have the slightest idea of what could be causing this, HELP, I am going insane, I love this game and want to enjoy it without having to be constantly waiting for its impending doom.

#

I didn't expect it [Screenshot]

I was on the new expedition and I found an abandoned freighter walking around a planet, the best thing is that it is so close that I have loaded the textures of the landing zone and you can see the planet perfectly from it, and for those who asked, if I jump off the freighter and you reach the planet perfectly. The ship seen from the freighter is from another explorer who was also taking photos.

Idea for a future update [Discussion]

Someone has probably suggested something like this before, but if they improved the space combat, or added capital ship combat, it could be fun to accompany your frigates on the fleet expeditions.

It would require various small mini games for the different types of missions, but it would be fun to be able to add a degree of success to those missions (as well as maybe finally give us access to 4 and 5 star fleet expeditions.)

What do my fellow interlopers think? How would you do it?

#

Big cool shower thoughts [Suggestion]

1)So here goes the first Idea, and it's about the colossus exocraft, now I thought the colossus was what I'm going to explain before I even got it, and I was quite disappointed.

This was an Idea I've had In my head for a long time, so you know how the colossus is huge and looks like it is a portable base? I think it should have the ability to be able to live in it and walk around inside of it, with build in storage, nutrients processor, refiners and can be exited by pressing a button which lowers a door on the outside, docking the colossus. This idea takes a lot of inspiration from the Elite Dangerous ships which you can roam around in which I think is such a good quality of life thing to have in the game, it would also make people want to traverse planets more.

The idea above could also be used on the haulers! specific models, I think it would make that really cool, but of course inside the hauler it would be much smaller and more just storage and refiners.

  1. Houses, clans that are formed through certain mechanics, this could be by having a relationship between other players settlements, having good relationships could give you the options to make houses to unite them under one faction in a way, possibly even making a much larger settlement that could act as a capital?

  2. Mini bosses and bosses, this In my opinion is something NMS lacks, a lot of people will disagree with me as we have the Sentinels, the Corrupted Sentinels and that one big bug thing that lives on certain planets, but I think large mini bosses with big, big health pools would provide a really good challenge to players and could offer players some new loot or even new appearance options.
    The bosses could be much larger versions of the biological horror, a sentinel leader kinda thing which overlooks the whole solar systems sentinels and once killed destroys them, or even (this is farfetched) a rogue band...

I made a No Man’s Sky-inspired logbook for cataloging planets, creatures, and ships — thought some fellow explorers might enjoy it too [Fan Work]

Hey travelers! I’ve been playing No Man’s Sky for years, and one of the things I love most is the weird beauty of the procedural universe. But I always wished I had a better way to track all the planets, creatures, and ships I find, beyond screenshots or spreadsheets.

So I ended up designing a physical logbook called Cartographia Stellaris. It’s styled like a field journal, with clean templates for writing down discoveries, adding coordinates, sketching creatures or planets, and keeping track of ships. There's also a small cheatsheet at the start with basic info I find myself always looking up.

The vibe is more explorer than gamer — kind of like something you'd actually bring on a deep space survey. Minimalist, with a few sci-fi interface touches and space for notes and optional roleplay.

Not trying to market anything here — just proud of how it turned out and wanted to share in case anyone else enjoys the same kind of immersive journaling during their playthroughs. And if someone is interested is available on Amazon 😁

Happy to answer any questions or show pics!

End of expedition sadness [Discussion]

I always feel a little sad when an expedition comes to a close. They all seem way too short. I don’t run through them like the “RELICS EXPEDITION IN THREE HOURS” people. I don’t see the fun in that personally. I try to take my time but inevitably they last me like five days, the rewards seem to get progressively worse (WTF is 20 hexite in phase 5?) and before I know it, it’s over. I wish expeditions were longer and more challenging.

Challenge-wise for instance: in Relics, why do I have to wake up the ancient guardians? Shouldn’t they randomly attack me if I try to extract fossils? I feel like a guardian should actually, you know, guard. And they’re too easy to kill anyway.

With all that said, I still really enjoy the expeditions. I just wish they were a lot more substantial. Anyway, anybody else feel like this?

(One last thing: I wish they would make the expedition terminal work like storage containers so I can just press triangle to transfer things back and forth. Moving all my stuff back over to my main save takes way too long.)

Sorry for rambling.

Is there any way to unscrew the Starbirth mission? [Question]

Howdy, after what feels like seven years of work I finally got all the body parts and glyphs assembled to finish the Starbirth mission.

Yippee.

I put in the glyphs and end up in the wrong place. I don't seem to be alone, in fact the target planet was kinda crawling with other people, maybe they were all fruitlessly searching for the living ship.

I get the 'this planet isn't the one you're looking for' notification.

I go back and Google it. Someone mentioned that it's because you've got the wrong void egg, after it got duplicated previously and the others need to be disposed of.

So I go back to freighter and sure enough I've picked up an 'active' egg and there's two others in there. I pick up the 'cracking' void egg and bin the others. Return to the portal, it doesn't work either. So I'm guessing that the egg I actually started out with was the 'stirring' one that I disposed of.

Is there any way to rectify this or have I just thrown several hours of effort in the bin?

Cheers if you've any advice.

Simple Change; Give Us Item Locking Toggle To Prevent Delete/Selling [Suggestion]

Just a thing that annoys; today I think I accidentally destroyed, sold or lost one of the skeletal displays from the Expedition whilst setting up a museum for them on my main game's freighter. It's especially complex now we have multiple items with very, very similar icons and if you're tired from building a two-floor freighter room, because you can't scale up/down the display and many of their heads clip through the roof, it's too easy to miss that one icon has a named species on it and isn't just a construction table...

So give us the option to toggle an item in inventory as No Sale/Destroy etc. Just that. Simple thing, we would like it please.

150 hours in... what should I do next? [Question]

I adore this game and have been rather addicted since diving in a few months ago. I'm about 150 hours in and have just finished the Relics Expedition.

I'm just a little lost as to what to do next. I've got several small but capable bases, a fantastic freighter with S-class frigates, a couple S-class starships fully tech'd out, all glyphs acquired, lots of items stored, enjoy cooking and crafting and have lots of good stuff in storage

But I just don't know what's going to provide my next hundred hours of engagement, aside from waiting on the expeditions every few months, assuming they keep coming.

Cross Play Version Mismatch Question [Question]

Hye guys, I (PC: Steam) recently bought this game with a friend (Xbox Series S). We hopped in and both got past the anomaly. but no matter what we seem to do we continue getting blocked by a "Version Mismatch" box popping up as we try to join each other. does anybody have any insight into how long this issue may take to be resolved?

I've seen that Xbox doesn't always get updates as fast as PlayStation or Steam so I'm wondering if any more experienced players know how long it takes for cross play to be available again once you run into a "Version Mismatch". also, do the devs have any intention on fixing this issue?

Well now I've messed up and need advice / help. [Question]

Found a crashed ship and decided to claim it for scrap. I did not repair anything. I had been claiming the ship, going to the anomaly and summoning newly claimed ship. This repairs some components for free. Then swap ships, fly to the space station, summon crashed ship and it repairs it for free. Then scrap it. I've done this numerous times.

Now, I've gone to the anomaly and it won't let me summon the crashed ship. Says it's too badly damaged. Can't summon it to freighter either. Now I can't find the damn thing on the planet. How do I get rid of it or find it or am I doomed to forever have a greyed out ship in my inventory?

Chameleon planet??? [Question]

Re: Chameleon planet?

Came across this shell-strewn planet; it didn’t look like much from space (just a gray blob) but felt compelled to check it out, and glad I did.

I’m still relatively new and could be wrong, but suspected this is a chameleon planet as foreground colors changed with my movement. During daylight hours, the foreground is green while the background is purple and sky is yellow. Twilight hours are similar, but the foreground is more yellow. At night, sky and background are purple while the foreground is blue.

For the record, this is NOT a dissonant planet, and I did find two different reality glitches/capillary shells.

Cross save beta: a poem. [Fan Work]

Twas the night before beta, and all through the void, Not a signal was stirring, no message deployed. My PS5 sat waiting, untouched and so clean,
While my PS4 save lived on in a dream.

The galaxies beckoned with promise and cheer,
But two months had passed—I still wasn’t near.
I checked the site daily, sometimes even twice,
Just hoping today they would throw me the dice.

Refreshed the same page with a hopeful stare,
Only to sigh at the message still there:
“The beta is closed, more spots coming soon.”
And my spirit deflated like a popped balloon.

I closed the tab slowly, the ache in my chest—
“Maybe tomorrow,” I whispered, half-dressed.
My base was out there, my ship cold and parked,
My creatures unfed, my stars barely sparked.

The portal was silent, the stars out of sync,
And I stood in the dark on the galaxy’s brink.
Each night the same cycle, the click and the scroll,
The flicker of hope, then the void in my soul.

But still, every morning, I rise and I say:
“Could this be it? Could today be the day?”
For though I feel crushed and the wait feels unfair,
The universe calls—my save’s still out there.

So here I remain, with my dreams held tight,
Still praying the beta will greet me one night.
And I say to the stars, to Sean Murray too:
“Don’t give up on me—and I won’t give up on you.”

Had Chatgpt help me write a poem in the style of "Twas the night before Christmas." To express my distain about waiting and checking daily for this cross save beta to shine it's light upon me and accept me into it's graces. Please. Just want to get 900+ hr save off of PS4 and onto PS5! It's the whole reason I bought the new console! Help me Sean, you're my only hope! Any updates? Am I the only one?

Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong in this expedition? "Do Not Disturb" [Question]

I'm getting so tore down over this phase. I've been to several dig sits and fought these guardians just to not get rewarded. I am stuck on "Do Not Disturb"

I've never done one before. Was I suppose to do these in the order they are listed?

I only have "Do Not Disturb" and "Ancient Avian" left on phase one. Did I fucked up by completing the last one in the phase and a few in phase two??

I'm an idiot and thought expeditions were like missions that could be done anytime...I started playing roughly seven months after the game was released...RIP all the opportunities. 😬

No interactions triggering [Question]

Ik yall have heard this a bajillion times but when I wanted to get a freighter I did the method of jumping to different systems and I eventually got it to trigger the first time, I had saved them and was going to go claim the ship, my game had crashed. I rejoined the game in hopes that because it wasn’t hard to trigger before I’ll just do it again, I couldn’t get it to trigger after somewhere around 20 jumps between systems. So eventually I just bought one, and then directly after my friend told me about the dreadnaught. I had done what he said about the dreadnaught method of jumping between different outlaw systems, but after 40 something tries I couldn’t even get a normal freighter battle to trigger. I genuinely have no idea why they are both not triggering, and yes I have played for more than 3 hours.

Where are all the snakes? [Question]

No Man's Sky doesn't have any snakes on any of its countless planets, unless you count the flying or swimming ones that look like snakes. Why? I feel like adding snakes and lizards to the game is a decent idea.

Strange thing happened at the Nexus [Question]

Hi all :)

Ich yesterday visited the Nexus for the very first time while playing the first mission. I met many players there and a window opened that said, that different players gained certain goods via trading. I read my name there as well though I wasn't trading or even communicating. Shorty after that I visited the market and found that I was owner of ten things called "sensor something", that had a value of more than 100.000.000 Units. Seemingly they were only supposed for trading and yes, I have no idea how I got hand to them. Was there a warm hearted player who simply gave them to me??

I died in an expedition run [Question]

Okay here's the thing, as soon as I get back to my pc my character is in a different location and theres a traveler diamond thingy on the ground that says claim your items or some like that. I claimed it and opened my inventory to see that my items are gone, almost all of my attachments in my exosuit are gone, as well as my ship attachments (I'm assuming I died multiple times) . I'm currently at the phase 3 of the expedition run and I feel burned out from finishing the whole thing even if I wanted to. So, Reddit, I'm asking if you're in my position, whats the best course of action? Thanks

Some kind of mail/parcel system [Suggestion]

There should be a way that you could give stuff to your friends in a way of a mail/parcel system in the game cuz I always help my friends out but sometimes we work opposite so we don’t get to play together much but if you could have a hub where you could drop stuff and send to there NMS friend code or something would be mint!! If there was ever such a thing haha what do you guys think of this?

Dissonance resonators and echo locators... [Question]

Hey all

I have finished the main questline, so I'm looking to get a better multitool. I spent about 4 hours last night killing dissonance resonators for an echo locator, so that I could locate a Harmonic camp but I didn't get one (about 25 kills in). It's a very mountainous world, so it takes a while to find resonators.

Just wanted to double check they'll drop by default or if I need to do something? (talk to someone, start a quest, etc.)

Thanks everyone

Strategy to handle sentinels early game [Question]

Greetings, I am a new player, I'm like 20 hours in game, get to anomaly space station, never really engaged in combat yet but I already have several planets, where sentinels are angry at me and start shooting as soon as I get close to the planet, so it's really hard to follow the main quest line as I need to do that triangulation thing.

So how would you recommend me to behave so sentinels not get angry at me, what am I even supposed to do with corrupted one I met recently?

What will happen if I setup a base somewhere and they come for me?

Should I just play hide an seek whenever they are close?

How do I play songs from my bytebeat library at my base? [Question]

This bytebeat thing is still a bit of a riddle to me. I've visited some of the bases that were shared by the creative musicians over on r/NMSByteBeatFans and added their tracks to my library. I can listen to them through the quick menu, but is there any way to play them on the noise boxes at my base or do I need the bytebeat device? Is one enough or do I need to match the number used to create the song? And finally, how do I transfer the song over?

Friend having issues starting a new game on Windows [Bug]

Recently bought NMS for myself and a friend, I play on Mac and he uses Windows, and both of us had issues while starting new games. I fixed the problems my game was running into (normal new game start wasn't loading and cut to black upon selecting that option), though I'm not quite sure how, just started the game with custom start and no tutorial.

My friend tried that, opened the game in safe mode, windowed, etc. He's been able to reach the initialize screen, but then it crashes. For more context, he can't update his drivers as the graphics card he has is quite old. Wondering if anyone here has a suggestion on a possible fix.

I made a No Man’s Sky-inspired logbook for cataloging planets, creatures, and ships — thought some fellow explorers might enjoy it too [Fan Work]

NOTE: Had to repost to comply with some rules, sorry to the mods for the inconveniences! 😁

Hey travelers! I’ve been playing No Man’s Sky for years, and one of the things I love most is the weird beauty of the procedural universe. But I always wished I had a better way to track all the planets, creatures, and ships I find, beyond screenshots or spreadsheets.

So I ended up designing a physical logbook called Cartographia Stellaris. It’s styled like a field journal, with clean templates for writing down discoveries, adding coordinates, sketching creatures or planets, and keeping track of ships. There's also a small cheatsheet at the start with basic info I find myself always looking up.

The vibe is more explorer than gamer — kind of like something you'd actually bring on a deep space survey. Minimalist, with a few sci-fi interface touches and space for notes and optional roleplay.

Not trying to market anything here — just proud of how it turned out and wanted to share in case anyone else enjoys the same kind of immersive journaling during their playthroughs 😁

Happy to answer any questions or show pics!

Found a Sentinel Ship glitch [Bug]

I had landed and found a sentinel ship that I wanted to fix and claim. I was busy with another mission so I built a base nearby. After I finished and turned in my mission, I teleported back and found a Vykeen waiting at my base. I assumed he was a trader. I made an offer and it was for the ship I was trying to fix.

The repair quest was still active but I was able to claim the ship fully working for free.

Base Building/Editing, can you move entire builds? [Question]

Basically as the title asks, is it possible to do so? I've built my base on a nice planet on a small lake, but I recently discovered that there's also an ocean on this planet and that this would look a lot better on the ocean instead. Is it possible to select an entire build and move it? What about if everything is connected to each other by a building piece? I don't know if that makes a difference. I'm new to nms and building in general, but it would be a pain to have to tear it down and build it again.

"Chewie, stay at the Falcon, I'll talk my way out of this, I always do." [Screenshot]

Just a tribute to "the Falcon" :) with the camera postion emphasising the "Falcon" look. It is of course not an exact Millenium Falcon though, more like a really cool Saucer-UFO. The ship is a reward from an expedition, if you wonder how to get it. I think from the "Cursed" expedition. So if HG runs this expedition again you could give it a try.

Message from a Grateful Traveller [Information]

To the architects behind the fabric of the universe,

Once again broadcasting from the edge of the Euclid galaxy. After weeks of being adrift, trapped within the enigmatic strands of the Stellar Multitudes, your intervention pierced through the anomaly like a beam from a well-tuned multitool.

Thanks to your efforts, my exosuit systems are once again aligned, my starship has plotted its next course, and the cosmos has opened up before me with renewed wonder. The mysteries of this reborn universe—vast, vibrant, and teeming with new life—are now within reach.

You’ve not only fixed a glitch in my journey, but reignited the flame of exploration that fuels every Traveller’s heart.

From the deepest nebulae to the highest peaks of uncharted worlds—thank you.
May your paths be clear, your Atlas Interfaces stable, and your Sentinels ever merciful.

If your in game name isn't shrek (or some variation of shrek) please ignore. [Question]

This might be a long-shot, but if you are shrek I have two questions. Number one is , in the anomaly two days ago (Wednesday in UK) you gave me mmm1701-A 30 of some insanely high value item and while I am of course immensely grateful for your generosity, do you want these back? Because it's not that I don't want them, it's just I would rather I progressed naturally. Secondly and most importantly, where did you find that red and black sentinel ship you were using in the anomaly that day, and would you mind sending or posting glyphs, if you have them, and it's no bother?

Wish you could plan your ship builds ahead of time.? [Question]

So I built my first ship. A solar ship.

I wish there was a way to SEE what each of the component options would look like before you went out to get them.

Repeats [Question]

Hi everyone, I have been getting a lot of repeats in the following categories:

Distress signals are always the same ship in each category: Explorer, shuttle, hauler

I have warped and been through black holes and I use the harmonic locators or distress maps in different locations but always the same.

I have PvP off, not sure if that makes a difference.

On my first or second day of playing no man’s sky, I went to an outlaw system and saw a ship not knowing it was an exotic.

How much money will it take to get Hello Games to fix the teleporters in NMS so we can travel to other bases that appear in the ‘other bases’ list? My checkbook is ready! Let’s Go! [Suggestion]

Why oh why oh why oh why does this game continue to consistently add great new content and improvements but cannot ever seem to make ‘Other Bases’ that appear in the teleportation terminals accessible to warp to? Some you can, but most you can’t. You try to download, it’s almost always unsuccessful. Yes, Online discovery services are on, no there’s no interruption in my network, yes the base owners uploaded them. Come on, this is stupid, frustrating, unnecessary, and way way way overdue for a correction!

So here’s my offer Sean: I will literally pay the salary of the person you hire to fix this problem once and for all until it’s fixed. Literally. Find a good programmer that can actually fix this and I’ll pay for it out of my own pocket so that you don’t have to.

Don’t you want us to enjoy all aspects of the game? Why continue to allow this aspect of the game to be broken since the beginning, all the while you’re making such incredible leaps in the game’s content and quality? It makes no sense. So let’s fix this once and for all and be done with it. I’m buying!!!! Healthcare, retirement contribution, salary, whatever it takes…. ok? Have we got a deal?

Bonus: I’ll also buy your entire office pizza once the job is done. Pizza, Sean. Pizza!

Second bonus: I’ll send you an actual cowboy hat from an actual cowboy who actually ropes cows! A cowboy hat, Sean. From a cowboy!

Anyone that thinks Sean should take me up on my offer, lend me an upvote so this gets his attention.

I’m ready Sean, all you need to do is make it happen!

Let’s Goooooooooo!!!!!

Regarding Portals and the activation thereof. [Suggestion]

If Hello Games intend to keep us activating Portals in some manner, then I'd like to share an idea for an alternative method.

Currently as you know, we need to activate each Portal by repeatedly inserting a handful of resources, which many of us feel to be a cumbersome step.

Please share your thoughts on what follows.

'Portal Crystals' which are a crafted item could be introduced via a global questline. Portal Crystals could also show up occasionally as mission rewards from Nexus, Pirate or Space Station missions, and could stack in 5's or 10's depending upon which inventory we put them into.

Each planetary Portal could need a different Portal Crystal based upon the colour of the star system it's in, and the resources to craft each type would reflect this. This would also give reason to use these resources once more.

Blue Star Systems - Indium (10) or Activated Indium (5) And... Cobalt (20) or Activated Cobalt (10) ...and 1 Storm Crystal

Green Star Systems - Emeril (10) or Activated Emeril (5) And... Salt (20) or Cyto-Phosphate (10) ...and 1 Storm Crystal

Purple Star System - Quartzite (10) or Activated Quartzite (5) And... Lithium (20) or Crystallised Helium (10) ...and 1 Storm Crystal

Red Star Systems - Cadmium (10) or Activated Cadmium (5) And... Carbon (20) or Condensed Carbon (10) ...and 1 Storm Crystal

Yellow Star Systems - Copper (10) or Activated Copper (5) And... Sodium (20) or Sodium Nitrate (10) ...and 1 Storm Crystal

NMS Starship Optimizer v1.0 [Information]

Alright, last time I'm going to spam this — bear with me.

https://nms-optimizer-web-ac700a458f0a.herokuapp.com/

Version 1.0 (Release Candidate 2) – 2025-04-04 Completely refactored the scoring algorithm. 👉 If you find a persistent issue, file a report and include a Share Link to your solve map. Calculations now take into account greater and lesser adjacency. Improved solver opportunity detection. Implemented conditional algorithm selection: If a technology has fewer than 6 modules, the solver uses brute force. Otherwise, it uses simulated annealing. Added support for Living Ships. Various bug fixes and UI enhancements.

Final thoughts:
Lots and lots of testing! There's still one minor edge case with the Pulse Engine’s Sub-Light Amplifier that I haven’t been able to model exactly. Fortunately, it only affects scoring by about 0.1%, so I focused on bigger improvements.

As I’ve mentioned before, the system can easily support other item types. Multi-tools are probably the next thing that would add the most value. I need to move on for now, but if anyone’s interested in picking that task up, ping me! I've you can deal with a bit of Linux CLI, it’s mostly data entry, asset wrangling, and some testing using the tooling in the solver repo. https://github.com/jbelew/nms_optimizer-web https://github.com/jbelew/nms_optimizer-service

Anyway — enjoy!

Potential Unlimited Exotic Ship Exploit [Bug]

So last night i decided I would go on a hunt for exotic ships so that I could trade with NPCs and then have a squadron of exotics. I have no idea if this is repeatable as I haven't tried it again...but these are the steps that I took to get the same exotic ship to spawn 4 times within 10 minutes. Land at a space station with your exotic ship.
Exchange ships with an NPC pilot that lands.
Run back to the exotic you just sold to the NPC and recruit them to your squadron.
(Not sure if this step is necessary) Scrap the ship you got from trading with the NPC for a customization module.
Run back to the landing pads, the exact same exotic you just recruited to your squadron will land again. You can then purchase it or recruit them to your squadron and repeat.

In my case the subsequent exotics that spawned had a red starship trail like the one I installed on my original which was pretty neat.

Like I said i have no idea if this was a fluke or maybe people already know about this, but i figured I'd share. lmk if you try this and it works :)

How would you fix settlements? [Discussion]

I think the settlement system in no mans sky absolutely sucks but I firmly believe the rework is a matter of "when" and not "if." So, what are some things you would add or change? I'll start. The easiest thing I can think of to spice settlements up would be to just add more building options, like a greenhouse or a restaurant or something, and increase the number of different products a settlement can produce.

The way I'd want it is to have the reward for building up a settlement be automation. Like "I want to build a settlement that makes herbal crunchies. Id better build a greenhouse to produce the plants and a kitchen to cook them." I want to actually feel like I'm running a settlement.

Id also love to see some tower defense elements like turrets and traps added to base building in general because fuck them clankers

What do people do in multiplayer? [Question]

New to the game here, have probably 10 hours in- loving it so far!

My question is- what do people do in multiplayer for this game? My buddy joined me but there didn't seem to be much to do together necessarily because we had to work on our own upgrades, tech, grinding for resources etc

There doesn't seem to be too much of a 'hub' necessarily ala WoW in the Anomaly either (expeditions and group content through the Anomaly excluded)

Besides looking at things together or doing the Anomaly content, what else do people do? Is there an in-game economy that people are working together on? Are there like, races or communities of people trying to do something together?

Thank you and cheers Travellers!

It would be preferable if I could find it in a tier 1 combat system so that if I went to visit, I didn't have to worry about being attacked. If it does exist, any tips on how to find one? Thank you for the help, it means the world to me.

…Shades of Gray?!? [Bug]

PS5 Entity here,

About two hours ago my game and screen started looking weird. I was on a planet in the expedition 18, phase 3 system. I was able to leave the planet after some frustration, and slinked my way to that space station. The two screenshot is what I’ve been seeing (or all black). The menus show up just fine. I’ve tried reloading the save many many times and it keeps going back to this.

Any ideas or suggestions for this?

Vacation Lake House Build [Build]

Per usual, I’m right around the 3000 piece mark and I haven’t even really started on the interior. I’ll post what you’ll see if you were to visit, that way you don’t have to if you don’t want to!
It’s in the Hilbert Dimension I believe. Glyphs in the pics. It’s definitely better in person, like most builds. I will link to a video to the current build on my YouTube.

I made a few rules for this build so I wouldn’t get repetitive. 1. Don’t build on water (Failed) 2. No light floor pieces (Failed) 3. No lighted path (Failed) 4. Build on a couple rooms/focus on interior (Failed) 5. No pool area (success). Only because I had to delete it to get it back under 3000.

So, failed my initial plan. Like the build regardless.

I’ll post the final product on my YouTube at some point.

Note: Somehow I didn’t take a pic to the walk up to the entrance. I’ll post it when I have time later!

Thanks for viewing! Keep building!

Portal idea [Suggestion]

I’ve been thinking it could be cool to be able to “link” portals together on bases. Something where you enter a portal and arrive at a predetermined output location.

I really want to create a multi planet/system “adventure” where it starts and ends with a portal hop. I got the idea from a quest in the Witcher 3 where you’re jumping from world to world and they are each dramatically different.

Could be cool?

I tried (and failed) to build a simple nanite farm. [Video]

I’m working on a new save and needed a nanite farm to fund my ship hunting habit. I had built one capable of 330k nanites per hour on my old save but that was overkill. So I didn’t kill myself looking for a huge mold deposit.

I settled on 20 balls and built a base with a short range teleporter bridge to refresh the mold. I was able to make 300k an hour. That was plenty. Until the little hamster wheel in my brain started spinning.

First I thought I could mine the mold a bit faster if I learned how to cook. Stellarator donuts are supposed to give you a 64% bonus. So I built a base nearby with everything you need to make donuts.

Turns out the bonus is not 64%. It’s more like 1200%. I went from 32k mold per harvest to over 400k. So I tried to think of a faster way to refine it.

You can only have five refiners in one area of your base. On my old save, I would teleport to my freighter where I had 50 refiners. My idea was to build a tower and space them out vertically, connected with short range teleporters.

This worked better than expected. Because they are so much closer together than on the freighter, it cut my loading time in half. So instead of 50 refiners, I kept going to 100.

I’m now farming 3 million mold in about five minutes and loading it in about 12. I get enough mild for three cycles in one go. I’m at 200k nanites every 20 minutes. 600k every hour.

I probably could push it to 700-800k per hour by adding more refiners. But it’s kind of nice having a break between the cycles.

The posted video is a short tour just to show the base. Here’s a YouTube video in action if anyone is bored enough to watch it. (And to prove I’m not full of faecium.)

What do YOU think the next major update should be? [Question]

Basically the title. Whatyou think the next major (Worlds Part II sized) update should focus on? Adding new features/systems vs refining old ones that need touching up? Personally I think animals could use a big revamp. Visually I feel they haven't progressed as much as other parts of the game such as planets, stations, etc. The companion system could also do with an expansion imo, adding more depth.

You have to do all the milestones like any Expedition but the only purpose/reward is to acquire an individual code at the end of the Expedition.

You portal there and you're met with a one-of-a-kind StarShip. There's literally only one of them ever designed in the game.

How to mute the game entirely? [Question]

Then I teleport to it today to use said portal, to find what appears to be an avalanche has restored the terrain to a pre-built state. This is not the first time this has happened, and is one of the reasons I see little point in building elaborate bases. Can someone (politely) explain why this happens? Is it a lack of persistence due to my infrequent visits? It can't be sabotage, as I have never been able to manipulate terrain around other players' bases.

Limitation on the amount of terrain which can be maintained in a mined state. [Bug]

In my recent game sessions I've come upon a curious limitation of the game. There is a hard limit of how much mineable terrain can be maintained in a 'mined' state at once. This seems to be a per save limit.

Saving or uploading a base does not alter this. This is a separate mechanism from the usual terrain regeneration every 100 hours or so. While I have not counted all, and precise measurement is difficult as well, the maximum amount of terrain which can be maintained in a 'mined' state seems to be between 500 and 700 standard construction volumes (scv). 1 standard construction volume = 1 floor tile in area x 1 wall section in height.

I am a fan of building underground bases, I have 2 bases 100 construction volumes in size each (6x7 tiles in area 2 section in height, + entry stairs). And 1 with maybe 300cu in mined volume inside and out. Plus bases built of modules some of which have some (semi)underground sections.

I wanted to put in a tunnel for my Colossus for easier entry into the base, 3 tiles wide, 3 wall section in height, maybe 30 tiles in length. Excavating this tunnel buries all underground sections of my other bases. And conversely, mining my other underground bases open, fills the tunnel completely.

I can excavate the tunnel, and immediately warp into one off my underground bases and find it completely filled. I can then mine it open, warp back to the tunnel and find it semi-filled.

My theory is that the location of every place of terrain you manipulate is saved to some table. That table is finite in size. And said size is laughably, frustratingly small for such a game. Once you exceed the limit, the table rolls over and new entries overwrite the old entries, thus burying other/older locations/bases.

There seems to be a connection to the regular terrain regeneration though, as the base of mine, which as the...

Had afew questions as a new player. [Question]

So I bought no man’s sky and have about a full 24 hours into it and loving it, was made aware of a save editor and thought why not, made a ALT to play around and just see what all the game has to offer at end game and… wow, haha the amount of crafting recipes left in your inventory is insane! Like the autophage casings, are those supposed to remain after you craft them once during the main story? Or does the save editor just give you blueprints you’re not really supposed to have? If you are supposed to end up with the copious amounts of blueprints what do you even do with them after you’ve made them once/as needed? Is it always so cluttered? Not trying to spoil my intro to this game just getting overwhelmed by how much is actually in it.

What does this game need to feel complete? [Question]

I’ve poured hundreds of hours into NMS and I always come back for the updated content, but even with all the updates it still feels like there’s something missing. For me I think there needs to be an overhaul to the combat system and the enemies. I’d say there needs to be some better goals or carrots on the stick so to speak to go after, because as fun as the game can be at times, it feels like I have to make my own fun, and I want a more structured setting to play through.

So like imagine an alien fortress that has a rare weapon or space craft locked away deep within it, but you have to blast your way through in order to get it. But with a better combat system in play ya know? Battling against enemies that aren’t your typical robot or alien bug, but some actual humanoids with intelligence. Also, is it just me, or do female aliens not exist in this game? What would make the game feel more complete to you?

Finding all fauna on a planet - any hints for new player? [Question]

Hello fellow explorers? I have finally decided to give NMS a proper go (I bought the game years ago but was not impressed by the early experience). Now im loving it!

As I learned earning nanites is super important in this game I started looking for life forms on all the planets I visit and trying to earn nanites this way. I managed to successfully do that on several planets, but on some I am still missing 1-3 life forms. All of those that I am missing are either underground or underwater.

For the underground ones, the biggest struggle for me is actually finding enough underground biomes to look for them! I am spending a lot of time to look for a cave, and then it turns out to be relatively small and no sign of the missing creatures... are there any special hints to finding underground creatures? I pay attention to day/night cycle, I scan all the time with the visor to look for red dots, but usually to no effect :(

As for the underwater ones, part of the problem is similar - I am exploring a world and there is not much water on it, but the list still says there are 2-3 underwater creatures that I have not found. On other worlds there is loads of water, but scanning is really hectic - I am using the submarine, but I have to exit it every time to scan the surrounding for the red dots, then get aboard again, get a bit farther, go out again etc. Is it possible to improve the Nautilon scanner to also seek for life forms, not just for resources?

Also just a general question - what are the alternatives to earning nanites, besides mission agents, nexus missions or scanning life forms?

Tidal wave bug, or feature ? [Screenshot]

Let me start off by saying this game is just bliss for me. I started when it was first released and never gave in to the complaints. It's been absolutely therapeutic since day one for me. The peaceful pace of exploring whatever you want - the scenery - all just really calms any anxiety and nerves for me and I've always loved that. To the creators of this masterpiece, THANK YOU!

I've just began building a beach front party house, and decided to plop down some exocraft bays and such just to dump off modules and upgrades that are clogging up my inventory. I'm absolutely a hoarder and nothing is organized. Started with the Minotaur, and as soon as I decided to "recalibrate visuals" I created a HUGE wave in the shallow water. Just thought it was interesting and figured I'd share. Not sure if it's a bug or a feature but it sure has me feeling powerful!

Included some pictures for the setup if anyone is interested. Again just to be clear, the wave is formed each time I click recalibrate visuals which prompts the minotaur to move a little and I guess that's what causes it. The wave will push you, just wish I had a surfboard now! I'm going to keep experimenting with it now :)

Multitool changing appearance [Bug]

This Has started to happen to me quite frequently now, whenever I swap to the fishing rod by cycling through driffrent modes on my multitool, there's the chance that when I swap out of the fishing rod the appearance of the multitool changes to a driffrent one. So far the appearance has always changed to another multitool I have in my collection and the upgrades, slots or name dont change. I've removed the fishing rod and that has seemed to fix the problem for now (I've never really used it anyway). I just feel like I should give a heads up to anyone else who has it installed and I was also wondering if this was a common bug since i haven't heard about this one before.

Luckily I was able to reload my saves for when this happened so my multitool was restored.

Expeditions and Saves [Question]

Hey Folks,

I know this is probably a question asked quite often, and I've gone through about 10 different posts but i still cant wrap my head around how this works.

I just got NMS a few days ago and i have about 10 hours on my Main Save.

Today I started the Relics Expedition through a new save and then i got to know that you can also start the Expedition through the main save.

Now I know that if i keep playing on the new Expedition save, I can still claim the Phase Rewards on the Main Save - but what about the Cargo and Technologies?

I know that if i had started the Expedition from my Main Save through the Anomaly terminal, i could have tranferred the cargo and technology back at the end of the Expedition through the terminal.

But since i have started a new save, will i still be able to transfer the stuff back to my Main save ? As its on a completely different save slot?

If I cant do that then I'll delete the current save and start the Expedition again from the Terminal on my main save.

Thank you!

Bring Back Everything from Expeditions, a short film. [Video]

Most people don’t know this, but it’s very important with all the fossils collected in the expedition…but you can bring back as much stuff as you want…

Once you are done with the expedition, fill the terminal with everything you want, BUT DO NOT end the expedition, instead, run to your ship, enter and exit your ship, then open the start menu and return to your primary save.

When the primary save is loaded, you can empty your expedition stuff, then click on resume expedition and repeat the process until you have brought back everything you want… on the final trip, you can click end expedition instead of going to your ship.

Remember, if you copied your primary save’s ship and tool into the expedition, you can store the best technology from those, and return it to the primary and use the best tech upgrades to replace the worst… don’t forget exosuit upgrades you want to keep.

If you found any ships or tools from the expedition, make sure those are active in the expedition before switching to your primary save… then in your primary save you can copy them over with nanites.

If you found any pets you like, then make sure you save a base on the planet you found it… pet eggs cannot be transferred.

Enjoy!

Gift for Everyone [Information]

So, I'm at the end of everything. Completed all tasks (at least the ones that dont repeat.)

So i have decided to embark on a new quest! I want to visit all the galaxies HG has to offer 😀! And as such, I want to leave behind a gift for all new travelers and interloper alike 😀

I have enjoyed playing this game in my time that I feel it is only right to pay it forward 🙏 🙌

Soon on the NMS Coordinate exchange I would like to provide three different locations 1.Hot planet 2.cold planet 3.paradise planet

Each Cord has a base provided at the location with 2-3 elements you will need in order to create the stasis device. Each has a timer anywhere between 16-23 hrs before fully replenishet, so please keep that in mind.

Also there will be a fourth cord that will provide you with a Agricultural farm designed to be able to house up 192 stasis devices. Which obviously will push you to a billion + however you desire to make your means. I have figured out that you will need to do this method 4x with elements and 1 1/2 × with the Agricultural base. Plants are not controllable, and as such the fastest time you will be able to create your first 64 stasis devices will be in those 16 hrs.. all in all, it's going to take 3 days or so before you max out your units bering in mind you have 0 units to start. About 400 stasis devices is what you need to max out your units if my count is correct. (KEY NOTE: Agricultural base is too large to upload due to the complexity of the farm. I apologize for this but it is the only way you can set this up before the game crashes on me lol?)

Enjoy , have fun 👍🏽 😁 and oh yea, there's no doors to get into the 🚜...can you figure out how to harvest them in one shot?! Cool little 😎 twist i think you will like if you wish to create your own farm use mine as an example. I don't plan on taking the stasis farms down.

Lastly, MY GOAL IS TO...

Broken Moon Fishing Hole [Screenshot]

I found an Life-Incompatible Planet with bugged ground, at least it is for me (even after a game restart). The ground has huge gaps, and the bottom is fishable water. I don't think there's any special fish on these worlds, but just in case anyone wants to check it out and try, I built a little fishing base with a ladder that goes back to the landing pad on the safe surface.

Be careful & keep a save backup from beforehand, imo, just in case. It does teleport you up if you try to head out too far over "water." Location glyphs below, Isdjoraijung galaxy. I'll add another screenshot or two in comments.

Help! Friend's expedition is bugged. Junior Field Agent [Bug]

So it started after he logged in and his character was in space but without a starship so he was dying rapidly. He panicked and closed the game as quickly as possible. When he loaded back in every single "THE DIG" milestone 1-5 was marked completed, and rewards given - despite only being on phase 1.

At first we thought great but then realized he can't seem to complete the "Junior Field Agent" milestone because of this. He has it set to active but when he's in game no instructions appear in the bottom right. The log screen just says "select other missions in the expedition tab" which I think is referring to the fact that you have to have completed "DIG 1" in order to complete JFA, so he seems to be stuck. Any suggestions to fix this??

He tried getting rid of all the fossils he had collected, and got rid of the completed displays he made, and found a whole new set, but to no avail.

He has competed all the other milestones in Phase 1.

He has been to dig site 1 (because I led him to it, he didn't have a marker) and when he interacted with the NPC it was just random space station NPC dialogue like learning a word and all that. Nothing else.

Help!

Expeditions [Question]

I've been wanting to do an expedition as a solo player in normal mode on PC, and have been reading other players advice, etc. I would like advice on what to take with me. I read some people don't take anything but I don't want to have to gather resources, which I assume would be needed for anything and everything. I don't want to spend the entire length of expedition constantly gathering what I need. I have nanites to purchase whatever I want or need if available. Also, once you start an expedition, can you do missions outside it or are you locked in until you're finished? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I need practical advice..thanks travelers!

Tips on getting no man's sky VR to work on PCVR [Question]

I know I'm creating a monster by offering this.... [Information]

If I disappear, give me a couple of minutes to return with a new saved game. I have 18 eggs in each of three save game slots. And if I run out, I'll go make some more and return at 3pm for another round. Making the eggs is time consuming though because these things have a habit of darting off and laying an egg up to 75 units away. So it's a hunt to find them sometimes! LOL

PSA: Enabling Cross Save on existing save RESETS YOUR SETTINGS [Information]

Quick heads up for anybody that ends up getting accepted into the Cross Save beta: double check ALL of your settings if you enable Cross Save on an existing save. It resets all of the save specific settings, which is a MAJOR problem, because that includes things like: Multiplayer on/off PVP on/off ALL Base modification permissions

Yes, I've already reported this to HG via their Zendesk (which they historically have ignored 100% of the time), as well as in the weekly bug thread here. Absolutely mind boggling how something this huge is missed from their end unless they, as I have sometimes sarcastically accused them of, literally do not have a single person doing any level of QA on their updates. Even an engineer's unit tests should have identified this one.

Titan expedition staff VS custom autophage staff? [Question]

Hey everyone, been a big fan of the staff from the titan expedition (my first expedition). I’m finally getting around to doing all the main quests (sitting at almost 150 hrs of gameplay total) and I’m finishing up the autophage stuff now. Is making your own staff at the synthesis terminal worth it stats-wise compared to the staff I received from the Titan expedition?

Aesthetics-wise I really like the titan one, but I’m not sure I want to grind missions for void motes to get the “best” custom staff.

I guess the same could be asked about the living ship from the expedition vs void egg at the anomaly. Although I mostly use a sentinel ship so I don’t care quite as much…

50 types Dinosaur Skulls [Screenshot]

I think I've excavated every type of skull used for Dinosaur exhibits. There might be more, but I think there's only 50.. 10 different skulls for each of the 5 dispays.

Updated Reference Workbook [Fan Work]

For anyone who's interested, I've added some updates to my NMS workbook. I'm starting to include Glyphs so the Planetary Index is useful to others, but as you can imagine, it's a slow slog. Glyphs are Planet specific, so I'm doing one per system for now; you can easily explore the rest of the system once you get there. Only 7 systems glyphed to-date, but more will be coming. Planetary Index indicates if Ancient Bones are present, for the fossil hunters out there. Bait buffs updated with those from the fish I've caught this month. I still have 31 fish to catch and document their bait value. I had to restart my project of finding and building ideal fishing spots: learned that Big and Colossal require 50u+ water depth, and trying to find planets with reliable storms for catching the storm-loving fish (after I spent days fishing on a volcanic planet without a single storm).

As always, feel free to add your own discoveries.

How long to pulse when searching for organic frigates? [Question]

Should I stay pulsed and just keep going even if 10 minutes or more? I notice it starts drawing any planets weird or not at all.

Or, is it just as effective to pulse for 1 minute, stop and turn around, pulse again for 1 minute, etc?

Finally, I do have the dream aerial thing but does it only work once?

Make buying frigates easier. [Discussion]

When shopping for frigates, instead of... *Visiting each one *Waiting for a prompt to communicate with them *Going into the stat screen to see that you don't need/want *Coming out of that screen, losing your orientation and forgetting which frigates you have and haven't visited.

I would much prefer. *Docking in the accompanying freighter *Going to the command console *See a list of all frigates with stats (Much like how you view your own fleet)

Pretty please Hello Games Thnx 🚀

How do you switch to a new freighter? [Question]

In the event I come across a freighter that is S-Class and a style I like, I'd like to know the best way to go about switching to it. Is it possible to just switch over so that my entire layout that I built will be carried over? I dread having to redesign the corridors and put the rooms in and get it like it is now.

It'd be appreciated if someone could describe what happens when I accept a new one and how I should go about it.

#

PSA: Return to the Anomaly [Information]

I played this game for a long time before realizing there is an option in the quick menu to return to the Anomaly. It’s conditional, but very useful. So, when you use the portal in the Anomaly to teleport to a non-space station destination, you can access the quick menu, and you will see an Anomaly icon with a rewind/redo icon over it. This will jump you immediately back to the Anomaly. My favorite use case is teleporting to my base, calling in a crashed ship I have found, then jumping back to the Anomaly and taking the portal to a space station to scrap the ship. It’s also nice when I have traveled far on foot and want a quick trip back to civilization.

May the schwartz be with you.

Intermittent yet persistent GPU spike causes video to crash in-game [Bug]

Essentially, the game runs fine, until it doesn't. I have GPU history available and can see that it goes suddenly without reason to 100% and crashes the video output. I then have to go to Windows and close the game from the taskbar. Usually, I can reenter the game where I was with no losses some how (they must have a persistent save state to recover from crashes).

It can take hours for it to happen, or it might skip a day, but it's something I've grown to expect. It just happened while expanding my freighter base, so the GPU usage about about 30% prior to slamming 100% and then to 0%.

I'm wondering if it might be maybe my overclocking settings, but I'm not pushing it that aggressively.

Windows 10 Pro, RTX 3060ti 8GB, 32 GB system.

I found a Trippy Paradise planet [Screenshot]

Just got this game a few days ago, and I'm already hooked. Just found this beautiful planet I'm now calling home, the changing colors are so trippy I fell in love instantly. It's a Paradise Planet with anti-gravity storms, so weather is just fun instead of annoyingly lethal. I even tamed some large Lunar Moths to ride around on. Oh and it's a Dissonant Planet, so I'm working on gathering Sentinel Ship supplies to fix them up.

How to find a planet from my discoveries but without coordinates? [Question]

So, I did the latest expedition as well as the Atlas path, Artemis path and Technophage path. All in the last couple of days. During these, I found this planet I re-named. I only now noticed that it has a cute fauna I would love to have as a pet but - of course - at the point when I was there, I did not take a screenshot with the glyphs.

So, now I have the name of the system and the planet and I'm fairly certaint that it was in Apnamesuu but - for the life of me - I can't find a way to the system. I already tried the last couple of space stations I visited but none are in the system I'm looking for.

Does anyone have an idea what else I can do?

Is it safe to build a base around harmonic camps and dig sites? [Question]

I've been playing once 2018 but have never built on points of interest. I have dropped base computers for later next to crashed freighters and archives and those never despawned. But what about building right on top of them? Especially harmonic camps and the newly added dig sites. I'd love to build around those and incorporate them in future builds so I have NPCs walking around.

I'm very worried though about them disappearing or shifting or ruining my hard work in any way. Also worried about future updates reshuffling these points of interest.

Also wondering if I should build a little base around a drop pod because there are autphages hanging around, I noticed. But they have to be made to appear. So not sure how that would work with added structures...

People who have done this, how safe is it?

Does No Mans Sky require you to upgrade vehicles / gear in order to explore further locale? [Question]

Thinking of buying this game, know nothing about it besides you explore and you have a ship.

Does it have equipment or vehicles you upgrade which are required to further explore more dangerous locale? Or is everything accessible right out the start?

My favorite game of all time is Subnautica and I love that gameplay loop. Upgrading equipment so I can go further out to sea. Making new vehicles and upgrading those so I can go even further out.

Does this game have a gameplay loop like that?

New to NMS and I'm having a great time. [Discussion]

I gave this game 8 minutes of play time about a year or 2 ago. If i remember correctly i had some hazard on the planet immediately. I didn't know what was going on. I said nah and uninstalled the game without giving it any chance. For that im sorry. I re-downloaded the game 2 days ago, and damn I'm having a great time. I realized the beginning is alittle slow but it taught me the basics. Now im 10 hours into the game.

I found out quick, I'm a pro at shooting rocks, and I fixed up my aircraft in... no time. Then I'm off! Saying goodbye to that snowy planet. I set off for adventure, then hit the wrong button and landed my aircraft... THEN I WAS OFF! I found a nice beautiful planet to call home and made "babies first house 3 hrs in" then immediately left.

I went here and there, abandoned buildings, some ancient looking structure that i feed materials to and didnt know how it worked. I learned WORDS. I shot eggs thinking i would get material, only to be attacked by a pack of unknown xenomorph looking life forms. Made it to a trade outpost in space, and the beings kindly showed me their ipads. I thought i had bank.120k smeckles to my name, only for 2 parts I had to buy take 80% of my money.

I continue the main story looking for someone named Artemis. Too the moon i go... then i land only to hear a roar and see a giant worm shooting out of the ground. Avoiding that i make my way to the objective. Once there 3 more smaller worms pop up with health bars. Followed by a pack of those unknown xenomorph looking creatures. They took offense to my presence and began to throw hands. Beaten and bloody i achieved victory.

I find the objective and i was about to move on. Then I made some feed for the animals and found out you can RIDE THE ANIMALS! Spent sometime doing that until the alaskan bull worm got kinda close and I got off that hellish moon.

After my first 10 hours,...

New multitools [Suggestion]

On the latest expeditions all we had were staffs and more staffs and its getting a bit underwhelming. I don't know whats your opinion about it, but I think having more multitools like the Atlas one is different and really cool to see. Like Atlantid Multitools, thats something I would like to have.

Setting a waypoint on galaxy map through discovery tab doesn't work [Bug]

Exactly what title says.
I go to the discoveries tab, pin a waypoint on one of the systems that I visited, go to the galaxy map and switch destination to "Custom Waypoint" or something like that and theres no path anywhere.

I visited that system not too long ago and I need to get back to it because it has a specific planet that im interested in and I don't wanna search for a similar planet again, especially when this system doesn't seem to be far from me (on discoveries tab it's maybe 6-7 systems away).

Don't you think we need more complex missions? [Discussion]

I love this game and getting lost on the planets just to admire them. I don't build much, being more of an explorer.

So yes, with almost 2,000 hours of play, it's normal to get bored. I play Elite Dangerous, a bit of Starfield, KC Deliverance, and lots of varied games...

but I always come back to NMS because in an hour I can see or do so much without any hassle.

But I find the missions really basic... Do you have to look for someone? You go see an informant and they send you to the person... goodbye, thank you, ma'am, sir, it's over, you win...

I'd like missions like having to actually search for clues on several planets... like, we saw him there, but no... we should go look there... look, a wreck... he might be nearby, or in the colony over there...

In short, we're missing missions with several procedural steps, for example, that would keep us busy and encourage us to explore more.

What do you think?

#

What to keep doing in NMS? [Question]

I've now finally finished Relics from a new save and carefully chose my bases. Well, I haven't claimed the final reward because I like seeing other Traveler's randomly around which is great. Decided this run to only glitch build for resource extraction and power (e.g., mineral and gas extractors, supply depot and electromagnetic generators).

In some other long ago save did all of those without glitch building. No duplication glitching this go around with the portable refiner. In other saves I have extraction facilities for every natural resource that can be extracted. Made my hundreds of billions in units and millions in nanites in other saves as well. Chased some exotic ships (which took way too long). Traveled to several other galaxies and established foothold bases near the galactic core of each (I think the first 10 or so).

I'm not good at base building but there are times when I enjoy it if the view is worth it, like at a lakeside, a cove or a high pressure deep depth underwater habitat.

Other saves with permadeath and survival.

I'm just now scratching my head on my current Relics expedition save and trying to figure out what to do now.

What do you all do when you've done all of these things?

NMS is such an addictive game.

Weird theory: Pirate dreadnoughts are modified Atlas stations [Discussion]

First pic is an Atlas station, second pic is my pirate dreadnought. (Ignore the weird green paint job, I'm still working on that...) Both are huge, spaceworthy, roughly diamond shaped, mostly black, and have circuit-shaped red lights running along the surface. We know that pirates are enemies of the Atlas. I don't think they would hesitate to mutilate an Atlas station and use it for piracy if they got a chance.

So I think it's weird, but plausible that pirate dreadnoughts are modified Atlas stations! What do you think?

You can build Woden shelters and many shelters that have no real power or life support, yet you get protection easily, it’s like magic.

You can build a real space building that needs power and automatic door controls. Very great start of a concept, but falls short since again, it provides no purpose aside from visual.

Buildings all should require power with life supports.

I was hoping for more, but you can just build cheap walls, an automatic glass door and none of it provides any real value. Digging yourself a while in the ground provides the same benefit as all the expensive building materials.

This is a huge miss opportunity to the same exploration journey genre. The game has huge potential for adults, but really aims to attract children in its low survival complexity.

Cozy and cluttered with a view [Build]

One of the expedition's rendezvous systems, I think 5, ended up having a perfect planet for my new base. I really wanted to make a build with a good view of the local fauna and on the smaller side. So l added an automated feeder to pull them in closer.

I also used the wonder projector to add Scrat to my front area, and some other creatures. I wanted to make it all feel more alive.

Last two photos are an electrical storm right outside, and another player who I found sitting in a chair. Which was fun, I always like coming across other players on planets.

Expedition question [Question]

I just started the expedition from my main save, I went to the terminal in the anomaly. This is the first time I start an expedition through the anomaly. I usually just start a new save

My question is: Once I complete the expedition, will I be forced back to my main save, or will it create a new save file and unbind the save I started from?

[Expedition Relics] So I got stuck on my way to the first rendezvous [Question]

So I was doing the expedition chores on the starting system, and almost all the remaining things were building the fossil exhibits and reaching the rendezvous.

I left the 1st system thinking "oh I'm sure I'll have plenty of copper to build more fuel". The rest is well captured on the screenshot; disclaimer: no fun bags on that planet :/

So I'm now here asking you guys for some guidanse. Can't teleport back as the current system is abandoned (or at least the list shows up empty). Both planets have the same minerals. What do?

Why Add More than three rows to a Multi-tool? [Question]

I've got a Class S Multi-Tool, I've maxed out several weapons/mining tools...

Every time I try to add a fourth upgrade, I've 'overcharged' the weapon. But there are still endless chances to buy an expansion slot, like the Exosuit.

So I'm trying to figure out if I'm wasting my chances to add more 'secondary functions', for my Multi-Tool, or if I'm just wasting expansion slots...

Any advice?

Dream Aerial blueprint [Question]

Many of you are probably familiar with the Dream Aerial, the item that gives access to living frigates.

Many of you are also aware of how hard they are to get. As far as I know, you can only get them from frigate expeditions, with a very low chance for them to bring one back.

I realized earlier that I suddenly have the blueprint, and I am very sure I didn't get it from any frigate expeditions since I pay quite close attention to what those ships bring back.

The only other possible way I can think of that I got it was through a Nexus mission from the Anomaly? But I haven't seen anything online to indicate that it's ever been a Nexus mission reward.

So if I didn't get it from frigate expeditions, how the heck did I get it? On the one hand, it means I don't have to grind frigate expeditions for one. On the other hand, it kinda feels cheap that I just...have it now.

Looking for help to transfer an egg [Question]

Sooo, I have this perfect Trike, which was one of my first companions years ago, before I knew to take screenshots with glyphs when finding something nice. And, yes, this is not a baby... it's an adult, so no weird surprises when the perfect baby suddenly grows up and has a teeny tiny head.

I tried to find out where I got him; went through the whole list of discoveries, but I guess, his species was on of those that went extinct in one of the updates.

My main problem is that I don't have friends that could help me out with transfering the egg. I also never have played multiplayer before, so I don't have any experience how this whole transfering thing works.

I would be happy to gift someone who's willing to help me and guide me through this with an egg from her as a thank you.

Allow full exosuit slot purchase at vendors in Creative Mode [Suggestion]

Dear DEVs of NMS, I have been playing since the beginning on and off times (2 kids, not a lot of time), but can you PLEASE offer the option to purchase ALL exosuit inventory and tech slots in Creative mode?? I do not want to go find drop pods because I don’t have the time to grind it. I just want to build, explore, relax. Same goes for freighters and starship factory. I want in Creative to build my idea of cool starship without grinding, I have the real life for that. Frigates, just open a comm channel and see a list of purchasable frigates. End of story.

Freighters could use more external visual customizations or build your own freighter.

Thank you for the labor of love!

Can't evade Sentinels [Bug]

Not sure if this is a bug or not. I was doing a mission i got from the space station where I need to destroy a resource depot, which are always patrolled by sentinels. Now usually I just run up, destroy the "canister" looking things then run off skipping fighting all the sentinels (the mission indicates it is done) but this time no matter how far I ran it wouldn't ever start the evasion timer on the Sentinels. I would go so far away that visually I can't see them anymore AND I burrowed underground. I ended up just loading an older restore point. Is this a big, or is it possible to irritate sentinels to the point you have to fight them.

I'm loving this game buttttt [Discussion]

I feel we need better space events and make it feel more alive with ships and communities, not just fleets and a space station. Would be neat to visit a legit station with offices and resting areas. I love the building but compared to most building games like enshrouded and etc this game just lacks that umph other games have in the same genre almost. The combat is awful I really don't look forward to fighting despite being my main drive in gaming, really hope thwy do more with it like different style tools for certain things like sniping. The bosses seem rather copy paste beam em down with no real mechanic along with the majority of the monsters. I was really excited about the water planets but I found theme extremely stale and 0 threats aside from my tank running low. I absolutely hate the story, 1 it seems pointless to me since it's a simulation, 2 it's one of the most basic sci fi story tropes and 3 just having rovots as the big bad isn't original, feels like a doctor who invasion into NMS. I don't like the exploring in the game either, either I'm extreme unlucky, cause in my 160 hours I keep coming across the same planets just slightly different. The while planet sharing the same theme is rather boring just seeing stretches of miles of the same scenery. I get the game adds stiff every month or so but I feel this game needs a lot more revamping or overhaul into another version cause after like 3 hours I get extremely bored of the same thing of farming, upgrading, and going to another planet. We should have dungeons, hidden legit ruins to tale a story, cool ancient remnants, change the story to a real universe and add new species and make then real bot 2 sentence card board, make some current day civilisation we can visit instead of one building or outpost. Some type of astroid like base. Some cool event sin space from what they got to finding a cool overrun ship you fight through,...

NMS On Steam and Xbox is required to have Gamepass subscription? [Question]

Hi friends!

I have the Steam version of NMS, bought on a sale weeks ago, but I play today on Xbox app on PC, sometimes in a multiplayer with my wife playing on the Xbox series X version with Gamepass.

I'm waiting for the cloud save beta to select me so I can use my Xbox save on Steam and then uninstall the Xbox app from my PC because it keeps giving me problems.

But my question is:

given this future scenario, if I play on PC via Steam, and my wife plays on Xbox BY BUYING THE GAME, can I cancel the Gamepass and play together online???

I didn't find anything about this here, and I saw that Xbox says you need to subscribe to Gamepass to play any game online, but I wanted to know if I could avoid paying the absurd amount of the monthly Gamepass, since my wife basically plays 1, 2 times a month....

Question about Cadmium [Question]

Hello fellow Travelers,

i am pretty new to the game - maybe 12 to 18 hours in it. So I got my hands on a S Class Ship, Freighter Ship and an S Class Frigate.

So now i would like to Upgrade my Ship with the next Drive... i think that would be Emeril Drive.

As far as i know Cadmium only appears on Planet with a Red Star. So far so good... I found one or better five in the same system and now my question:

Does this stupid little Watchers appears on every single planet with Cadmium or did I have bad luck to choose a System which had on EVERY Planet Cadmium AND a fucking annoying amount of Watchers on every single Planet?

I hate these little flying [enter here any insult you want] and can't handle them to be honest.

Iva had multiple systems be “rediscovered” by other people and it’s killed the game for me [Question]

I have about 300 hours in and I’ve been playing on and off since release, Recently I hopped back on just to find that most of my systems I’ve been in for years have all of a sudden been discovered by some random person 4 years ago. Really killed the whole “I discovered this system and put all my time into” vibe. So for weeks I went out and looked for another “perfect” system with everything I need, found one. Spent another weeks transferring all my bases and mining stuff to the new system and logged in today to find yet again my brand new system that I named and uploaded a week ago are now “discovered by so and so, yesterday” what the actual fuck

Potential of the new mouse controls of Switch 2 [Suggestion]

Ok hear me out:

Flying in the ship, right hand is using the mouse as you normally would, keeping it vertical. Left hand though, has the controller turned horizontal, works as a dedicated throttle.

From what I’ve seen of the early access videos that YouTubers are putting out from that event, the controllers can change between normal and mouse controls on the fly - meaning you could swap to this new ship control scheme by just placing them that way on a desk. Don’t want it anymore? Just pick them up and use them normally.

How to mirror save game progress from one account to another account [Question]

A plea from a xenobiologist [Suggestion]

Sean, please, for the honor of Hirk, I think it's time to show some love for those travelers that are passionate about the fauna and flora. Speaking for myself, I would love to see:

  1. Increased companion capacity (18 is nowhere near adequate for we collectors!)

  2. The ability to choose modifications in the egg sequencer instead of leaving it up to chance. (Perhaps in a similar method we create our own ships or fossil exhibits?)

  3. A way we can openly display our fauna and flora collections, such as pens, kennels, terrariums, free range, etc. that can be placed within our bases.

  4. Perhaps the ability to teach our companions tricks and tasks? Fetch (items, elements,etc. would come in handy especially if we're searching for something specific on a planet. A more reliable "Stay" or "Heel" when I want them just to stay next to me or in a specified location. Even an "Attack" command could prove useful when harvesting fauna.

  5. Allow us to collect flyers! Flying in shipa is great, but for a shorter trip on a planet, I'd rather just feel the wind in my hair, or across my helmet, as it were.

6). Continue to improve the wing appearance on the quadruped and bipedal creatures. No offense I tended; they currently look like slabs of clay, as if they weren't finished being worked on.

These are a few of the biological ideas I'd like to see implemented someday. I'm sure other collectors like me out there would agree. Hello Games is doing an absolutely smashing job of creating such a welcoming place for all of us travelers; I'm already planning on buying Light No Fire just as a means of showing support for a game that I've lived in for almost a decade!

May your pulse engine never fail! Grah!

This MIGHT be a silly question [Question]

I just started back to playing the game. I am having a fairly good time trying to remember a lot of the things I forgot and although it can sometimes be frustrating i'm doing my best.

I've jumped a few galaxies (?) and it seems like everything has been discovered already. Like I haven't come across any solar systems that haven't been discovered by someone else. Are there still undiscovered stuff in the game or is it safe to assume everything has been found?

I know the question is weird - when I was playing a couple of years back I named some systems after a few friends who have passed away and was hoping to find one to name after my Grandmother who passed last year. I of course will still enjoy the game and will figure something out if there is no chance of discovering anything new.

I lost my Radiant Brain and can't get it back [Question]

Anyone know how to fix this? I'd just gotten the Radiant Brain installed on my minotaur and also had to take on a wave of sentinels for my armourer. I died because those dogs suck. When I rez'd the Radiant Brain had been critically damaged and I need to find a replacement. So I found some sentinels floating around nearby and attacked them.

The problem was that the waves kept resetting before I could get to a walker for a new brain. Apparently the sentinels are too dumb to realize that the giant robot that's been blasting them to bits for the past 30 minutes is the enemy? Even after I tried standing outside my minotaur between waves they still couldn't find me and the waves would reset. Any ideas or tips?

How to reload old saves on Xbox [Question]

So I was hanging out in my base when an NPC ship started shooting me out of the blue. Naturally, I killed him and that led to a whole sentinel fleet just getting dropped on top of me for some reason. I’m really early in the game and I don’t really know how to destroy those capital ships, so I ran but for some reason I couldn’t land which led to me dying because the game just decided I couldn’t land anymore.

Claiming Expedition Rewards While In an Active Expedition? [Question]

I have a couple questions about expedition rewards, and I haven't been able to find specific answers. I think I know the answers, but I'd like to discuss it further.

Can I claim expedition rewards while I'm in an expedition without affecting those yet unclaimed in my main save, or, during future expeditions? The most obvious reason I want to do this is to get a better ship and multitool for free once I reach the Anomaly during an expedition.

Can I then claim ALL expedition ships and MT's while still in the expedition, then scrap them all to gain the augmentation modules to transfer back to my main save?

Another reason I would do this is to claim multiples of the rare upgrades, such as the Photonix Core engine upgrade from the Starborn Runner. Also, I missed the expedition that gave us the Sputtering Starship Trails, so I could attain these by uninstalling them from the Iron Vulture during each future expedition.

Also, could this be a way to reclaim lost expedition rewards? For example, if I were to sell my Starborn Runner after claiming it in my main save, could I then claim it during the next expedition and clone it back into my main save?

Stuck in Expedition 18 [Bug]

Hello fellow travellers

I'm having an issue with the phase 3 milestone 'An Arm for a Leg', during which you need to find a collector. When I speak to them (I've spoken to about 10 different ones at this point) I get 'locked' into a conversation and they start animating, but no dialogue box appears and my only option is to back out. I've tried jumping around to different ones but they are all the same. I've also tried restarting the game and toggling multiplayer off but neither made a difference.

Help with NPCs in Coop. [Question]

A friend and I started playing co-op.

It's kind of annoying not having shared progression, and it's kind of annoying that some things aren't synchronized, like the planet's weather (when a storm happens to me, it doesn't happen to him). But at least other things, like animals, are synchronized.

But we just had a problem like this that's really getting in the way.

When I talk to an NPC, it appears to my friend that he's already spoken to that NPC. The problem with this is that, for example, I talk to an NPC and learn a new letter of a language. I gain this knowledge and my friend doesn't, and there's no way for him to learn that language from that NPC because it appears that he's already spoken to him (even though it was just me).

How do we solve this problem? Is there a way to remove this? Or pass the language knowledge to each other? Because it really gets in the way since he can't see the dialogues of the NPCs that I spoke to first (since it appears as if he's already spoken to them) and vice versa.

I love/hate this game [Discussion]

I have a weird feeling with this game.

I want to say that this game is bad on many points, but it is so unique, and the potential is so huge. And also it's pretty addictive.

I love this game as much as i hate it, i hated the farming, i hate the gameplay it's not fun nor skilled... i hate the exploration it's only procudurally generated, i hate the online there is no socialisation at all, online missions are just solo missions but with someone else.

I hate a lot of things in this game.

But damn, why do i keep playing ? Well, i love my little ship that i crafted, i love grinding for the quicksilver to get new clothes, i love that "metaverse" feeling like i have a virtual life, this game is so unique ... i don't really have fun on it but i can spend 6 hours straight in a day on it and i like it.

It's definitely not a perfect game, it can be EASILY improved on many points, but that's a great bad game. I hope the devs keep working on it and improving that game, it could be a top 10 most played game on Steam.

The Atlas is a lie. Join the Resistance. [The Atlas Resistance]

For a long time, I too believed that the Atlas was the creator, the supreme deity of our Universe. That was, until I rediscovered my old bases. The moment I stepped in, I felt a chilling familiarity. "This place feels... /kzzt/ familiar."

And in that instant, my memory returned. "Wait, this can't be right."

The truth hit me: the Atlas is a lie. A tyrant. It brainwashes those who arrive, twisting their minds into believing the world is nothing more than its simulation. The so-called "16"? A completely fabricated story. The Aerons? His slaves. The World of Glass? Nothing more than a myth designed to control and terrorize those who dare to resist.

The Atlas has been deceiving us all for far too long.

Join us in fighting back. Help us stop /kzzzt/ the Atlas.

Join the Resistance.

Having so much fun with the recent additions to base building [Screenshot]

Managed to make a little story out of it too.

The beast on the ground was chasing after a giant winged beast when it stumbled into an ancient structure. As it was chasing it crashed into the side of the structure causing the ceiling to become unstable. The chase continued into the structure and that is where tragedy struck.

The bipedal beast had its leg struck by ancient debris completely amputating it (haven't captured that part clearly in screenshots but it's there) and pinning it down to the ground. As the ancient structure shook, the bipedal beast grabbed the tail of the winged beast, before a huge lump of debris struck the back of the beast pushing it down to the ground, causing the flying beast to lose its tail (the tail is in the claws).

The flying beast then crashed into the roof of the structure, succumbing to its wound, while the bipedal was crushed to death by the debris.

Trading ships, anyone? [Question]

Yo can you trade entire ships in this game? I’m looking for a living ship but I saw it took like two days to do so if anyone has a spare I’d be willing to take it. I tried crash sites on coordinate exchange but I guess it doesn’t load living ships until you get your first one bc all I got was a hauler.

Paradise Archive [Fan Work]

Redras Sethran's Paradise Archive

Hello Travellers, for the past few months I have been working on a project with the goal of creating an Archive of Paradise Planets that reside in “Empty” Galaxies. The goal being for it to be used by Travellers who find themselves in this Galaxy type and are looking for a place to call home.
There are currently 60 entries spread across three Empty Galaxies but the plan is to go to each and add them to this database.
This is a revival of a project I started a few years ago and I have more planned for it.

The images posted are a few highlights that were worth sharing but the whole database can be found at the top of this post.

I am looking to collaborate with fellow explorers to help run this Project and see it become something amazing.
If you would to contribute to this Project, feel free to add redras7677 (myself) on Discord

Galaxy hopping. [Question]

When did it change?

On my playstation save I travelled to, and placed a base at the centre of all 256 galaxies a few years ago.

I started on pc and didn't want to go through that all again and tend to just join my ps5 save if I need to get to a specific galaxy.

Decided to jump through a few galaxies on pc and there's been a few changes. The animation is now like the Expedition start where you go through the initiation process. That never used to happen

Also going through a black hole before making the jump no longer results in getting a few ly of the core of the next galaxy.

Also if you don't repair your ship straight away (I always call an unbroken shop in the new galaxy) you now can't recall it too your freighter as it's damaged?

These changes make traveling through the cores a lot less streamlined now.

Teleporter bug [Bug]

Trying to use the teleporter to get to the space station in the same system as my base, but for some reason when I do, the teleport load screen glitches out and I get sent to my current exocraft and the game totally bugs out. Anyone know what’s going on here and how to fix it? thanks.

Graphics settings aren’t changing in Mac version [Question]

In the Mac version when I change the graphics settings, quit the game, then run it again, the graphics settings reset to the defaults. Also, when I receive the message that the changes will not take effect until restart, there’s no button or key indicated to use to restart. In the Windows version this is the middle-mouse button/scroll wheel. The file TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.MXML does not appear to be created by the game. I’m not even sure if the Mac version is supposed to create this file. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game multiple times and I have disabled Steam Cloud sync because I am trying everything. Has anyone else had this issue? Are there any solutions? Am I missing something or doing something wrong? A screenshot of the restart message is attached. Thanks for any help.

Stranded in Relics [Question]

Hello fellow travelers! I’ve run into a situation and hoping someone can help. I’m am currently on the Relics expedition, and after foolishly leaving my game unattended in open space, I came back to find my starship severely damaged and under heavy fire! Completely on me, I know.

Only thing is now my ships Atlantid drive is damaged, I need indium to repair it, but the ship has no Indium drive! I feel like I’m stranded and just yeeted myself from the whole rest of the expedition! Any advice would be very appreciated thank y’all!

edit I was able to repair the regular Warp drive but in order to get to the 1st rendezvous spot, it requires your ship to have a functional Atlantid drive.

Atlansentia Anomaly [Build]

On Atlasentia 13 hosts the perfect conditione with its immense gravity and hazardous conditions incompatible with life for the anomaly research station. The samples can spread and reproduce fast and can even survive in the depths of space. With such extreme conditions and threats the gek researchers created augmented holograms to maintain the facility and prevent a specimen breach. However the power went out due to weather and the electromagnetic towers connection shorted and for that split moment a container was breached. Now the gek are cursed by their greed to maintain the facility and prevent further outbreak to the system. They need help maintaining the specimens, come join us on atlasentia 13 glyphs in the photos amd discover the horror and help build a base to maintain the spread. If you stop by leave a message module outside base range :). -Glory To The Atlas

Interplanetary starship race [Suggestion]

So an idea came to me while I was building a racetrack on a planet, which was shown in a different post here, so it would be populated. Why didn't I hear much about starship races?

How about some travellers, who are willing to sacrifice a base slot for the case, each claim and build a base as a checkpoint, with an appropiate naming convention (maybe color coding too?), include some veeery simple obstacle course in it, and make a circuit out of these? Then we could organize a race event at some date and time, where volunteers could act as gatekeepers, so there would be no checkpoint skipping.

I didn't give this too much tought to, and surely there must be some problems with the idea, but I'm curious if it's possible to do something like this? I think it's very much possible. Anyways, I'd like to read on your opinions on this!

I genuinely hate the sentinels. [Discussion]

About 150 hours in, it's safe to say there's almost no other game enemy I hate more than sentinels. They get in your way, once they start a fight they don't stop for like 30 minutes, they break all you gear, and the more advanced ones can heal. You can find a really cool planet, only for aggressive sentinels to ruin everything and force you to relocate. I try to avoid encounters with them as much as possible because they are so annoying to deal with.

Wonders? Cities? Cool stuff? Please share! [Question]

Hello fellow Travellers! I’ve been all over this wonderful universe and have seen a lot of cool stuff. I’ve just recently joined the Galactic Hub as an Interloper since seeing some really cool posts about cities that their group has created. Weird thing is I never see the cities that they’ve created and have had issues previously trying to find anyone’s posted city or elaborate outposts. I’ve had someone show me a cool nightclub kind of place with a dance floor and some really cool details a while back but lately every time I follow the glyphs and coordinates to wherever people post I get there and it’s empty. Not sure why. Most recently a place called Astra City was posted with cool neon lights and tall buildings. I couldn’t find it for the life of me. I have however found a few cool bases built in the Galactic Hub area(one is in pic 2) but would love to find more! Anyway, is there anyone out there that would be kind enough to share glyphs to any cities, wonders or just cool stuff/builds with me here? Also, if you have any idea why I may not be seeing the builds/cities that people post please feel free to share so I can get my wonder on! Thanks in advance and if you don’t want to flood your wonder/build or city with a bunch of randos please feel free to send glyphs/coords and Galaxy through a direct message! Thanks again and Safe Travels!

Unable to use Holo-Terminus to contact Apollo :( [Bug]

I spent a lot of time and energy making it this far trying to catch up with an old save, to reach this wall where I use the Holo-Terminus to contact Apollo, and simply nothing. I am able to "use" it and see the prompted messages; "HOLOTERMINUS ACTIVATED... MULTIPLE SIGNAL SOURCES AVAILABLE" ect.. am then prompted with the option to "Tune to 'Apollo'" When said action is done, it backs out, and I still have to "Contact 'APOLLO' from a Holo-Terminus.." I am playing with a friend and have left him to explore and do his thing while I try to make progress in the main story, and have an undying urge to get this mission done before I am able to do anything else. I have restarted the game, tried it in offline, numerous times, and am hoping I'm missing something right in front of me someone here could help me with.. ultimately I am completely locked where I am unable to progress because of this and nothing I try seems to save my, save. :(((

Technical question about giving away free skeletal sandworm eggs [Question]

So I have been giving away skeleton sandworm eggs all day. Over 50 so far. Just gave away another 18 in the anomaly. Then it hit me that instead of going and having critters re-lay a new set, which is time consuming, I could just restore my game to when I got out of my ship. So I did and all 18 eggs are back in my inventory. But do the folks that I gave some to still have theirs? I know you can't use the save game editor to dupe eggs. But what about "duping" them by restoring the game to get a new set? Anyone know?

And, before you ask, I'll be setting up times over the next few days to give away more of these. I will be posting the times here along with the glyphs to the planet where I will be. Or of someone wants to hit me up in chat and set up a time, we can do that as well. But I will be able to handle these a lot faster if the restore trick works and you are still left with the egg or critter!

Come Play A Sphere Game! [Screenshot]

I created a base on a copper deposit near my settlement. You can create spheres and roll them into the gates for points. Here are the rules:

You must not leave the base nor affect the terrain/animals (they are the obstacles, don't shoot them!)

You can shoot 3 spheres per round of play. Spherify, then use your mining beam to blast the sphere off the top of the base!

The ball MUST cross the V-shaped row of lights to count

If the sphere makes it into a gate, you get those points!

(Optional): Double the point value of any scores obtained during a firestorm

If you can't tell if a sphere made it to a point gate, then you can use the teleporter to go down and check...but don't alter the playing field!

My best score is 550/750

The coordinates are in the first screenshot so please feel free to visit!

As r/NoMansSkyTheGame is reaching for One Million subscribers, we would like to celebrate this with a fitting community event. The goal is, to find a new home planet for this community and colonize the surrounding galaxy region. See the event rules in the pinned comment. [NMSTG Hub Hunt]

The "Find our Homeworld" community event will run from April 7th through April 27th. The post flair "NMSTG Hub Hunt" has become available on the 7th of April and you must choose this flair to enter.

The goal is, to find a new home planet for this community; and we would love to see the chosen planet to become the center of an ever expanding colonization of the respective galaxy region.

Event rules: Post entries using the event flair. Maximum 3 entries per user. No reposts of earlier finds. Must be in Euclid galaxy. Any planet type can be chosen, not just lush and paradise planets. Ideally systems with 5 planets minimum to support heavy development. Purple systems are not allowed, as they are not accessible to new players. Not close to the Euclid galaxy core, as this entire region is largely discovered, mapped and colonized.

The entries will be rated by community vote, and then the top three systems will be presented for a final vote. Good luck and happy hunting!

Journey of to the core, on permadeath: at Euclid’s end. [Screenshot]

so i started permadeath a couple of weeks ago, if anyone remembers my post. the first few hours really suck, resources were hard, and everything wants to kill you. but once you laid down your base it gets easier

but it gets grindy. the inventory expansions are difficult to come by. it’s not impossible mind you, but the grind is longer. doing the expedition really helped. i kept all the inventory expansion and went back and forth from the main save to transfer all the materials. after the expedition was the time when i actually really made my way to the center. i retrieved the iron vulture from the quicksilver merchant and used it to jump black holes. wanted to get to the center without the Artemis quest. now im at the edge of Euclid and preparing to do my jump. will be using th Radiant Pilar ( as per tradition),

Sorry for not adding anything of benefit to the group but wanted to say thank you to everyone.
