I think my main quest (Patterns in Time) is bugged out and not sure how to fix. [Bug]

I got to the point where I needed to speak to a Gek Cartographer but wants me to do 2 missions for the Gek Contractor first. I did one but came back to the space station it wanted me to and it swapped out fur a Korvax NPC and now contracts don't count towards mission progress because bro isn't a Gek.

I tried a different station with a Gek but that doesn't work because it doesn't have the main mission icon above its head.

Anybody might know how to fix?

Confused about claiming settlements [Question]

I am new and working on a quest which is having me Investigate the planetary settlement. The waypoint always sends me to a settlement under attack by sentinels, after defeating them I access the terminal at the center at the town but it appears this settlement is owned by another player, am I supposed to be able to take it over somehow?

I need some help (Artemis Path spoilers) [Question]

So, relatively new player here. I just finished (??) New Beginnings, but I did a little stupid thing. I chose Harsh Galaxy, pressing the "erase simulation" (at least in my language it said "erase") button, thinking it would erase the Harsh galaxy, and not the Euclidean I was in. I've read through some guides after that, and found out that I would like Lush Galaxy a lot more. I am now in Calypso, is there any way I can get to Lush Galaxy now or did I just mess up big time?

Expedition 19 Corvette modules gone? [Question]

Hello fellow travelers, I finished the expedition and transferred over what I had but left the corvette modules behind. My assumption was they'd appear in my main save corvette module storage, but they're not there. Are they lost? Thanks for the help in advance!

(google translate) Corvette inventory refund with items that cannot be destroyed, taken, or sold... [Bug]

https://preview.redd.it/lzkc8lrc6ypf1.jpg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3048b151e1512cb0d3aaa61b93cb605a232b475c

(google translate) Corvette inventory refund with items that cannot be destroyed, taken, or sold, happened after dismantling all the pieces of the corvette with modules inside, and then archiving the project for a later time or because I received a group request while I was building, I don't know, it's also annoying that they can push you while you're building the corvette, just by touching you, or that they jokingly pull you away with the shield, after that, strange things like this happen, I don't want to have to go offline just to build the corvette.

Need small but viable corvette build! [Ship Builds]

Pretty much the title. So I have an S class starship that I’ve run my entire playthrough (bought the S class reactor and salvaged the rest of the parts I needed), which has been great overall. But after doing the recent expedition in a separate run, I really like the corvette for gather resources, but rather dislike how huge it ended up being. I run into a lot of pirates though, so I also need it to be combat capable. So. For all you master ship makers out there, how would I go about making a small/compact corvette that would still be viable for all around scenarios? Can it even be done? Like, I can install all sorts of mods to my starship, can I do the same with a corvette if I minimize the actual parts used in creating it? Or do I have to make some massive thing to make it match an S rank starship?

If it matters, I’m on permadeath mode, and I spend a LOT of time in unsafe areas lol. Units aren’t a problem, nanites aren’t a problem.

Side note, is the living ship better overall? I’m getting my egg today, so if that’s the best option straight up I may just wait for that. I’m only a couple weeks into the game right now, so I apologize for the lack of knowledge. Thanks for any help!

help, stuck on this mission [Question]

Hey everyone. So I have to do this mission to progress in the story. I am doing those contracts but it doesn't update. Until now I have done surely over 12 of those and somehow one counted, but all others did not. I tried changing systems, reloading the game, restarting it entirely, even changing settings in hope it would update. Nothing worked. Am I missing something? Do only specific missions count?

If you are having problems with controllers on Steam do this!! [Bug]

For some reason the game does not recognize controllers after the last update. I tried a lot to get it working. But found the only way to fix it is to completely restart Steam. Sometimes it only takes one restart, sometimes a couple as it will only recognize sticks but not face buttons, but it will eventually hook. Hope this helps someone.

Bourride technology [Bug]

Hey I'm new to the game and I need help! When I dig for a burried technology, I get close to it and the option to take it doesn't appear. So I can't retrieve it... it's just there floating and the square option doesn't pop for me to take it! Can anyone help?

Am i doing something wrong? [Question]

So i was watching this video ( https://youtu.be/NZhypZWHj8o?si=OGui_7vMr-hDMEeT ) about best crashed ships this guy found and the last one is by far the nicest imo. I was just trying to find it and even redid the portal glyphs to make sure it wasnt my fault. The crash site itself doesnt even exist and all that is there at the exact coordinates is just a knowledge stone, yet on a creative save i made just to see if it was the same and there it was. Quite stunped on what to do to be frank.

Should these guys offer unique missions? [Discussion]

Just a random thought, more specifically on the scrap dealer but it could apply for the fossil collector. I thought it be cool if he gave you missions to explore derelict freighters, or maybe he offered those random missions that are scrambled. With the derelict mission he tasks you to retrieve something from them and as a bonus if you hand over the captains logs along with it you get extra. or eliminate the aliens/ robots on board.

Stole engine decoration idea from build "The Ring" [Ship Builds]

origin engine design -> https://www.reddit.com/r/NMS_Corvette_Design/comments/1njskvn/the_ring/

PS: I found when the character is on the exterior of corvette, it's still immune to weather, e.g. extreme temperature and storm. Once you use jet pack and disconnect from the corvette, protection bar starts to be consumed. So, I think I'll be chilling on the deck most of time on board, thus rounded windows are no longer that important for a yacht build - and now both rounded and seamless window are buggy in 6.05 I found lilies has collision, grasses don't, so used them as deck railings. Felt they're a little bit too bright in night and tiny little bit reducing the quiet and peaceful feeling of sea at night. So currently left the other side for A/B testing.

Floating ship captains [Bug]

I play on the switch 2. Since the voyager update Monday I have not been able to talk to the captains at space stations. They are floating in the air and there is no option to speak with them. I rebooted the game a few times and restarted the switch but nothing. Lot of other issues as well like rendering issues.

When placing number decals on exterior of Corvettes. [Bug]

Hey team, just wanted to share this. I just had a hell of a time trying to rework a ship because it kept giving me the "all items must be attached" warning when I was trying to get out, and I couldn't find anything that wasn't attached. I learned from painstaking discovery that if you put numbers on a Corvette exterior, especially if it's on a piece that is a decoration and not a Corvette part, and then delete that part but do not delete the numbers first, they are no longer visible but are still counted as being there and unattached. A trick I found to make the invisible number decals disappear is to build a habitation unit where they were and delete the habitation unit. That, for some reason, also deletes the number decals and removes the warning. Has anyone else experienced something like this?

Glitch - flying through the nexus in my starship? [Bug]

I was chillin on a planet in my system when a ton of people "joined the system" and I started chatting with them through text chat. I was tryna figure out why they were all in my star system, and flew towards them, and it turns out they were all in the nexus, which was invisible to me and just floating around at a random spot in the system.

This is POV 1/2, one of the people in the nexus said he recorded me and was gonna post it on this subreddit too. Apparently to everyone else there was just a starship flying around inside the nexus lmfao

Anyone else seen this glitch before?

GPU usage falls %5 suddenly [Bug]

Apology if this issue solved before but I couldn't find an answer for trouble, I have been searching reddit/google but all answers almost a year ago or so, My specs R5 5800x3d, 32 GB Ram, Nvidia 4070ti, 980Pro Nvme2. I have nvidia app installed, gpu drivers recent, windows 11 (recently updated) virus/malware clean.I reinstalled game.

My problem; I am getting 120 fps while at High settings at 4k, if I boad my ship or dock in station or after sometime playing game like 20 mins or if I alt+tab GPU usage drops below %5 suddenly. This was never happening me before patch. I want to play the game but apperantly my GPU doesnt want. Thanks inadvance for your advise I am really up to try anything new to solve this problem :)

I haven't made it my favorite yet, but I like it most so far [Ship Builds]

This is my 4th build since I started playing the update and I'm happy with it but still not satisfied. I maxed it out at 100 parts so I couldnt do everything I wanted.

I've had to learn to build the hab smaller so I have enough part allocation left to stylize the exterior. Not to mention navigation a big multi-level hab can be a pain and is really unecessary. It took me a few builds to figure that out.

Back to building!

Outlaw Korvax Dissonant Hub (with S class Atlantis multitool) [Screenshot]

It’s an uncommon Korvax Dissonant Outlaw system. Please come check us out! We have established a foothold in galaxy 199 (Horeroedsh) . It’s a lush galaxy sparsely populated. And it’s ripe for the picking/ looting. This galaxy has many lush planets undiscovered at the core. Our Hub has a few pirate/ raider hangout spots with bars and places to relax. Our sector is the most visited place in this galaxy. We also have discovered an S class Atlantid tool location. There is also 6 systems right in the same sector one jump away under our control!

Corvette Guns Firing Issues (Really Hoping For A Fix From The Devs) [Bug]

So Lets say you want to put 2 weapon systems on a corvette, you also want to install both the weapon sets ie 3 deadeye cannons and 3 photon cannon arrays.

Now you place the weapons in a layout on the ship to have one deadeye cannon and one photon cannon on each wing plus another set under the cockpit total 6 weapons.

Okay all is good till this point weapons are installed and I am getting all the bonuses. Ship looks fantastic, till you take off. Firing the weapons can be chaotic and impossible to work with I have done a lot of testing.

I tried first placed priority and last placed priority to see if I could choose which weapons fire since only 3 SOMETIMES 4 guns would shoot. I randomly got them balanced so that 1 turret on each wing was firing and 2 under the belly so it looked even leaving 1 on each wing not firing, this took like a hour of taking the turrets off and on again I thought that the priority was the 2nd 3rd 4th and 5th turret placed.

Then I start really playing and getting into exploration and after about 10 hrs of playing my weapons went back to just wing firing. I tried using the 2ns 3rd 4th and 5th turret placed and it did not work this time I have to randomly place them again till it just works aha.. it would be nice to be able to control which turrets have the fire animation !

How are you all getting these cool sentinel rifle multitools? I keep getting this same design from the echo locators. [Discussion]

I found a visual glitch with the Fishing Rig + recreation [Bug]

I found a glitch with the fishing rig that lets you use the fishing rod while mining.

To do it you have to recharge the terrain manipulator with the quick menu and swap to the fishing rig afterwards, now you have a fishing rod that lets you mine, now if you wanna take it a step further you can sprint and change your tool with G to hold your weapon in a way you aren't supposed to! Makes for some funny looks.

can be reverted easily by just swapping back to fishing rig and to the other modes.

My apologies if this has been found before but I havent been able to find anything about it and I thought its funny to share! HG dont fix it pls.

Are Settlements embezzling and laundering my units? [Discussion]

I have two settlements that are well off. All the buildings are either A or S class and both profit around 300K units per day. So tell me then, why when a settlement expedition comes up or something they need to spend money on, why is it the settlement goes into debt? And then will say --6 hrs till dept paid off. Mother Hubbards, where's the units!! Should have millions of units in the settlement bank by now, so why does a 68K unit expedition break us?

I'm going to investigate some of my workers. Something is fishy and I want to know where my units are going.

Possible future player. Trying to wrap my head around the setting [Question]

From what I'm understanding about how the game is set up. It is not like Valheim or Minecraft where a world seed generates a unique map per server, but is more like a shared universe of 256 galaxies and procedurally generating planets that everyone is charting out all at once and can share their discoveries with each other?

New Player Guide: Make money fast by farming and selling Storm Crystals [Information]

I'm a relatively new player, with 20 hrs back around release but just started playing seriously after Voyagers. I struggled early on with making credits to help with things like buying new starships. Then I stumbled on my fastest and most lucrative cash flow yet: gathering Storm Crystals and selling them on the galactic market.

Storm Crystals are a rare material that can only be harvested during a storm on an Extreme weather planet. You'll see a tutorial pop-up that alludes to "resources only available in extreme climates" at some point, and that's what it's referring to. In my game at least, a single Crystal sells for over 200,000u, and in a single farming session (maybe 20-30 mins) I can gather around 25 of them if I'm lucky. Each time I offload at a station, I'm making 5-7 million credits. What you need

A planet with Extreme weather. The biome itself doesn't matter, just the Extreme parameter. Details here: https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Extreme_Planet

Decent Hazard Protection in your Exosuit, since you're going to be briefly exposed to highly hazardous environments while you gather the crystals.

A good amount of Launch Fuel for your starship. You're going to be making a lot of short jumps to get to clusters of Storm Crystals quickly without traveling on foot during the storm.

Inventory space in your Exosuit to store the crystals, which stack up to 20 at a time. How it works

First, find the Extreme planet. You'll know it has extreme conditions if an "Activated" metal is present. They're more common in the red, blue, or green systems but I found a few before I could warp to those.

Then, travel to the planet in your starship and find a decent place to land. You want a fairly open, flat landscape so you can move quickly once the storm starts. You can look for dormant crystals in normal weather, but you can't...

Não consigo entrar no jogo dos meus amigos no No Man's Sky [Screenshot]

Olá a todos, não sei bem como funciona o reddit em si, mas não encontrei solução em lugar algum. Algumas semanas atrás comecei a jogar No Man's Sky pela primeira vez, e convidei alguns amigos que também nunca tinham jogado antes. Somos em 3, dois jogam pelo PC GAME PASS, e um pelo console através do XBOX GAME PASS ULTIMATE, o problema é que, mesmo tendo adicionado ambos na minha lista de amigos do xbox, não consigo ver nenhum deles. Tentei até mesmo adicionar diretamente no próprio jogo, porém ao tentar, sou redirecionado para o perfil deles no xbox. Sendo assim, não consigo visualizar eles de forma alguma. Conseguimos jogar outros jogos online tranquilamente, na aba de REDES, multiplayer ativado, inclusive consigo ver outras pessoas na anomalia. Peço ajuda, pois estamos tentando solucionar esse problema há um bom tempo, grato!

Tips to Increase Performance for Xbox Series X [Discussion]

Does anyone have any tips to raise performance on Xbox Series X, by chance? The only thing that works right now will be to quit the game after 15-20 minutes of play, or potentially after my first or second warp. After that point, I'm basically playing a PS2 game. It's thankfully still playable, but I'm losing all 'wow' factor when I travel to an unfamiliar planet.

MNS VR Issue (SteamVR) [Bug]

Hi, so I have a unique situation, and I'll lead by I have verified install files, and also performed full uninstall/reinstall of all relevant software. So I have been playing NMS in VR on with my KatVR treadmill. Since the early august SteamVR update I have to use the previous version of SteamVR for the treadmill to work. And up until yesterday No Mans Sky has worked fine this way. Now I can no longer boot NMS in VR (it reverts to screen mode) when I',m using the previous version of Steam VR, but it does boot normally when I use the current version of SteamVR, but that means the treadmill wont work. There hasnt been any updates to either NMS or SteamVR in the last few days as far as I can see (except for the beta build of steamVR which i am not using)
All I really want to know is if anybody else using (or wants to test for me) if they experience the same issue with NMS while running the previous version of SteamVR.

TIA

Last played when Beyond came out (2021) and bounced right off. Worth coming back? [Discussion]

I know I'm speaking to the choir but you guys have deeper insights into the current state of the game.

I bought NMS at launch, enjoyed it for what it was but after a few dozen hours dropped it.

Ended up picking it back up again when Beyond dropped in 2021. I thought this would be the update that would make me love the game, put another dozen or so hours into it, but then dropped it again, feeling bored with the stale game mechanics/quests/writing, and the lack of variety once you get past your first 10 hours. I just didn't feel like the game itself had much to chew on even though I like exploring/base building in concept. I'm the kind of gamer where skinner box mechanics/progress bars/fetch quests do absolutely nothing for me, and where I feel like I need to be able to connect with the world/NPCs/places in order to feel motivated to do stuff like base build.

Well, a new update recently dropped and I'm surprised at just how much was added/changed since Beyond. Do you think it's worth coming back to considering the above? Does the game have much more depth than it did since beyond? I do admit having a much more wide variety of things to invest money into (corvettes, settlements, better beautification options, etc) sounds appealing and might overcome any boredom I get with generic fetch/kill/resource gathering quests. If the meta game involved is much more compelling than it was during Beyond that could be enough. The greater creature/planet variety is also very appealing (is it truly that much better though that I can be genuinely excited to discover a new planet/system?)

What do y'all think? Any players like me that bounced off the game returning to the newest update and it overcame your problems you had with the game in the past?

Very proud of this corvette, my submission [Ship Build Contest]

I like compact but powerful ships so it is just perfect for me: Just 6 squares from bow to stern, 4 squares from port to starboard, 4 decks from keel to topside. Fits all reactors, shields and photon cannons, all fully enclosed in the hull, no inner stuff spilling out so 100% clean surfaces. 4 large rooms plus the cockpit, 10 walls available for wall-mounted elements AND 2 large windows. 2 nacelles. No mods required, just quirk editing accessible to everybody. I think it looks nice too :-) but this is subjective.

It is pretty normal looking compared to some other incredible submissions (great work travellers) but I wanted to achieve maximum specs in a small ships, I hope this is valuable too.

NMS is completely broken on Legion Go S (SteamOS) [Bug]

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone else was having the same issue as me. I’ve searched about it a few times online and have not found anyone else with this issue.

When I open the library page for No Mans Sky on my Lenovo Legion Go S it completely hangs the system and forces the UI to reset after some time.

I think it has something to do with the Steam Input / Controller configuration because whenever I go into those settings, it also crashes. Maybe NMS is trying to use SteamDeck controls and it’s bugging out and not finding the right control inputs somehow.

If anyone has the Legion Go S and can try opening NMS on their device to see if it does the same thing? I’ve not had this problem with any other game.

Thanks all!

Is anyone else sick of the runaround for Multi-Tool and Starship expansion slots? [Suggestion]

You know the rigmarole: run around to space stations/distress beacons, buy the multi-tool/salvage the ship, until you have 6/12 in your inventory which must necessarily include your actual Multi-Tool(s)/Ship(s), fly back to the Anomaly/Space Station, click through five hundred menus and then get a chance at the things you actually want, some Units that are probably-nice, and a bunch of technologies that are vendor trash.

I hate it.

It would be so much simpler if we could get Multi-Tool/Starship expansion slots the same way we get Exosuit expansions, from the drop pods, wouldn't it?

I hate the back-and-forth runaround, the rigmarole of clicking through the menus, using the stupid Utilities menu to change to the multi-tool/ship I want to scrap...

"Do you want to... Scrap this? Upgrade this?"

"You suuuuure you want to scrap it?"

"You really, really suuuuuure you want to scrap it?"

"This is irreversible! You'll get credits and vendor trash! You really, really sure?"

"Okay, scrapping it..."

"I've scrapped it!"

God-fucking-damnit, yes I know what I want to do! Just let me throw the damn things in a bin in a batch in a fast menu and get it done quickly! Let me mark the things I actually use as protected so they don't go in the bin! Or just let me run around to drop pods full of Multi-Tool/Starship Expansion slots! Or both!

Corvette Building - Ceiling Hatch Trick [Information]

I don't know how known this is, but I've found a way to make a sort of ceiling hatch to get in and out of your corvette.

If you put a staircase underneath a Thunderbird Class Landing Bay, it glitches out the ceiling, making it possible to jetpack out the top of your corvette. My main ship is a 6 layer tall behemoth, and this saves me a lot of running up and down stairs.

As an added bonus: for first person players, if the landing gear block is connected behind your cockpit, your cursor is directly on the "beam down to planet" switch when you exit the drivers seat.

Artifact boxes and keys - noob question [Question]

I've only been playing for about two months, so bear with me because I'm a proper legit noob.

My second ruins (the one I'm on now), I can only find two keys, and zero large crates. I've made this huuuuge crater around the ruins, and there's just the two keys. Is that normal? Did I get lucky for my first ruins? Or am I unlucky with this one? Can I use these keys on another set of ruins elsewhere?

I can't reach purple systems. [Bug]

Do I really have to make another character? I tried every situation to trigger the quest chain, including going into systems with anomalous sentinels, got the special upgrades for the Exo vehicle for my troubles, now the big bot moves by itself and all. Became the mayor of my own village. I have a Carrier and 20 frigates. Have my own living ship. Made my Corvette, it was fun to build my own basic ship with 9 container access points. Then I noticed I don't have some items to upgrade my village, like lithium.

I have this save for over 5 years and don't want to do all this over again. Can I at least gift myself all the hard earned upgrades and nanites and credits? The Carrier upgrade tokens were a pain to get, can I still find derelict carriers or whatever gave those?

You know what I don’t enjoy? Manually finding out what parts to trade for every single individual advanced part I want, scrolling through menus repeatedly in the hopes that I have stuff I don’t want that I can trade, and hope that I don’t need that part I gave away later.

My solution? Let us sell unwanted parts for “Corvette salvage”, and then let us spend that salvage like a currency for the parts we want. Parts already have a hidden value, as shown by how much they improve the likelihood of a trade succeeding. Just translate that value into a numerical value of salvage, and let us buy and sell using that salvage.

Guys am I cooked? [Question]

So yesterday I was going into orbit around My home planet to get a exosuit upgrade when my game kick me for the update, so I went to bed.

When I attempted to play again the next day it always crashes before I can get in, I'm running a base xbox 1 so I think it just can't load space from the jump like that, but is there anything I can do, I already restarted my console but no dice, I'm worried my hour's of play are gone and I'll have to start over from scratch.

Ps: the video skips around 2 minutes incase that helps

Invisible landing bay connecting thing [Question]

I played after the update 6.05 and from what I read I thought this was fixed but maybe I read wrong? When I make a corvette using either the titan or ambassador class hab and connect it with any landing bay it does this (In the pic), it dosent seem to connect but when I use the thunderbird hab everything is fine. Or maybe its just me? I saw other youtube videos that had the same problem but after the update I thought it was fixed. Just wondering if anyone still has this problem?

Crops in biodome disappearing :( [Bug]

I've been building towards a stasis device farm for the past week, and yesterday I spent hours building a base with crops farm, but today when I loaded in some of the crops disappeared!

Not that they appeared to be harvested, it was actually as if I didn't ever plant them! Weirdly not all of them were affected, some are still there. Can't be a power problem either, I build next to a power hotspot with eletromagnetic generators connected

Is No Man's Sky Worth Buying in 2025? [Question]

Hi everyone!

I have a question that's been on my mind:

I’ve been thinking about buying No Man’s Sky, but I’ve come across mixed reviews from other players/users. Some say it’s amazing, while others find it disappointing. Idk what is better.

I’m was familiar with this game for a long time, and only now, I'm thinking of buying it. but, I i'm still not sure if it is worth it. Cause I don't know if it turns out to be as good as everyone says... So, recently, I got interested again and watched a lot of tutorials and reviews. Once again, as far as I know, many people say it’s SUUPER GOOD etc, and they love it, but others find it boring and bad. I saw on Metacritic, the reviews are mixed... Personally, I’m not sure what to think. I'm still kinda interested in the game and want to try it out with friends etc. But I’m still unsure, so I wanted to ask here. I play on Xbox Series X btw, (just saying, in case there are any bugs or issues like that.)

So, to sum it up:

I’m curious – what do you think about No Man's Sky in 2025? Is it worth buying now, or is it boring!?

The gang's all here [Screenshot]

After a couple of days of grinding I've finally got my first proper fleet!

I followed NMSResources for the best stats and used NMSCE to get the colours I wanted - so thank you to them and everyone who keeps them going.

Even found an S-Class Resurgent Venator and an S-Class Pirate Dreadnought (on the second battle!)

I had built my Freighter base how I wanted it before losing my old save, but I didn't get this far before.

Lost my pre-expedition Corvette [Question]

Couldn't find any other post about this so wondering if anyone else has encountered this issue?

I built a Corvette, nothing big but it has several pieces to it. Then I went and did the expeditions.

When I finished the expeditions I copied the Corvette that I had built in my expedition to my main save.

The issue is that my first Corvette from before the expeditions has completely disappeared and I don't even have all the parts Id found/bought for it in my storage or anywhere.

So I just lost all those pieces that I was hoping to add to my new copied over Corvette.

Seems like less of a bug and more of an oversight in programming?

Corvettes, and parking [Question]

Hi!! So it has been a quite a few months since last I played. I was probably going to jump in later this month, but I was curious about the corvettes and how they are parked inside the Anomaly, space stations and on planets. From what I can tell, some of these new ships are massive. So how exactly do you land or park these things anyways?

Is there a way to start a New Game+? [Question]

I currently have 90 hours on my main save, I completed the main quest line and got as far as I could with the atlas. I was just wondering if theres a way to start a new save with all your suit upgrades and whatnot, rather than creating a new custom save where i can instantly max out my tool and suit?

#

Am I cooked? [Question]

So a long time ago, I started the starbirth mission. The mission log tells me the void egg seeks a specific planet. the problem is, I am nowhere near that galaxy anymore nor do I even remember where it could possibly be. I can't abort/restart the mission for some reason either, and even worse, I may have accidentally sold one or more of the components needed for this thing. I wouldn't know which one(s) either. What the hell do I do.

#

I broke the questline to get to purple star systems [Question]

I completed all the prerequsets to the quest and even started it. I warped, then aproached the Fragment of atland thing (I forget its name) I started the dialogue and then I flew away to go sell something in the middle of the dialoge. When I tried to return, it is gone and I can't figure out a way to make it reapear. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

Ocae Rhopalocera by Pharaoh [Question]

I went to this planet through the portal on the anomaly, and I’ve been exploring. When I go to a planet I have a need to get all the Fauna, since I can find them all (usually) with the description given.

I’m currently looking for the last animal species. It’s to the south, in water, rare, but active all day. I’m very near the bottom of the planet.

My question is does anybody know how far south I have to be? If I exit and reload, will the animal load in for me? Any help would be great.

Thanks for your time.

"Inventory Full" message ON GAME START when inventories are not full [Question]

I quit the game last night at my settlement terminal/building.

Today I start the game and load my save in, and I'm immediately being presented with an "Inventory Full" message, still standing at my settlement terminal/building.

I checked the settlement terminal, and I have nothing being made (my production is still at a negative amount).

I checked all of my inventories, self, ship, vehicle, and they all have 25-50 slots available.

So I'm assuming the game is trying to give me something, but for some reason, it can't.

Assuming I'm not making a mistake on what I've described above, that I have plenty of inventory space available, and nothing being made by my settlement, then what could be my problem?

I've read though all the other posts here that describe scenarios like for example having five slots available but the game wants to give me six items, etc.

Also, will the game log files tell me exactly what is going on? If so, where are they located.

Any advice/info would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

A couple of questions for this new pioneer. [Question]

Hi guys!!, I'm playing the game, and loving it so far!, I have like 15 hours and I got my first freighter, and I have a couple of:

1.- Is is worthy to start upgrading my first freighter? since if I create rooms for it, and then found a better one, does all the customization transfers to the new one? I'm refering to rooms.+

2.- I reclaimed a ship that was crashed in a planet, but didn't fix it whatsoever. I can see it in the "call ships" menu, but it wont fly. I already left that system, so, is there a way to reclaim it, or remove it?

3.- I also found one of those systems of pirates, and did the quest of the passport hack to the main computer on a normal space port everything y travel to one of these systems?

Thanks in advance!!

If you want to move a corvette room, you have to completely redo the whole interior? [Question]

This seems like a terrible design choice, if they want to allow you to continually add to and modify your corvette. i.e. if I decorate a hab then decide I want to move that hab to other side of the ship, all interior items need to be placed again? Or am I missing something?

Should we just avoid doing anything with interiors until your corvette design is ‘finished’?

#

Memories of Atland questline is broken. [Bug]

After finishing the requirements to start the quest, I pulesed and triggered the fragment thing to spawn. About halfway through the dialoge, I flew away to land at a planet to switch ships. Upon returning, the thing was gone and I can't get it to spawn back in. The questline is also not in my tracker so my progression in the game is pretty much completely frozen. Please fix this very soon if it is a bug!!!

PSA for corvette parts trading [Information]

I have seen seen multiple posts about corvette part training one at a time. You can trade for MULTIPLE parts at the same time if you hit what ever your increase stack size key when you are hovering over the part you want BEFORE selecting it to trade. it will make the sound of increasing the stack size but won’t show a number until you go into the trade. (So for console I hit right d-pad idk what pc is)

Would I get banned or in trouble? [Question]

So im from and grew up in the south. I grew up watching the Dukes of Hazard. I love the show and love the general Lee car. The show and car have a special place in my heart for some personal reasons that I won’t say. I would love to try and build the General Lee as a corvette. I’m just worried that I would get in trouble for building the Rebel flag that goes on top of the car. I’m not one of those folk that get upset if it’s the American flag on top, I wouldn’t mind doing that if I had to. But I am one of the folk that don’t like nothing being on the top. I’d like to keep in authentic and original. Like I said, im just worried that I’d get in trouble since of the flags controversy.

I hope this question doesn’t offend anyone in anyway, hope everyone has an amazing day.

(I’m not here to discuss whether or not you like the rebel flag or not, I just want to know if I’d get in trouble for building it on the roof of the car.)

A Brief Tour of Recon Sky [Ship Builds]

It's clear that the Recon Sky was once a military stealth vessel. Possibly modular originally, this one seems fitted for fast recon. It features a very sleek design, with a cockpit that is both easy to reach and offers unrestricted downwards view. This leads me to believe it specialized in high orbit planetary surveillance.

Fig 1 - Profile view of Recon Sky. Note the modular cockpit with generous viewing windows just behind

Fig 2 - The engines seem built with speed in mind and run nearly the full length of the hull

Fig 3 - Another profile shot, this time planet side. Keen observers might be curious about what appears to be a lower deck.

Fig 4 - A closer shot of the viewing windows and another sneak peak of the exposed deck

Fig 5 - The cockpit is positioned such that looking down is unimpeded.

Fig 6 - It came with some old built in features, like this tactical jellyfish who screams at me occasionally but is mostly fine.

Fig 7 - Topside view. There is an airlock allowing for access to the top of the hull. Perfect for maintenance or getting some sun!

Fig 8 - Hello there!

Fig 9 - Here we go, the exposed deck, or the fishing deck, as I prefer to call it! A wonderful way to view a planet without actually having to set foot on it! Perhaps once upon a time this ship could double as a troop carrier.

Fig 10 - Sometimes I wish my view was impeded.

Fig 11 - Other times, I'm glad I picked up this little beauty

Accidentally sold the corvette cockpit :( [Question]

Hey yall, I just started the game recently because I heard abt the voyagers update and it finally came to switch a couple days ago! I just started the corvette mission and went to a space station but ended up selling the cockpit to a terminal for a very small amount by accident and I don’t have nearly enough credits to buy it from the build station. Is there any way to refund it or get it back?

Unexpected gifts !!! [Question]

Hey everyone,

I am new to mns (about 12 hours of play) and when i was in the space anomaly, some random player was going around and giving other players various items.. he gave me x10 Fusion Ignitor (total worth 156.000.000 Units !!!!) and x60 vessel storage..

I only have about 332.000 Units and 3500 Nanites... 😅😅

My questions is, what should i do with the Fusion Ignitors... since im very far from needing such a thing for now, should i sell them ??

And what about my first vessel.. should i use the storage capacity on it or get a better one before ?

Thanks

PS: Benny.B, who ever you are and where ever you are, Thank you 🥰

My bulky corvette. Not as creative as many of the designs I've seen from you guys, but I'm happy with it. [Ship Builds Glitched]

The goal was to make a corvette that looked nice, but also had all the functionality I wanted from it. I needed room for all 10 storage units, preferably in one room, since I'm playing with harsh stack limits. I didn't like running through the storage area to get to the cockpit, so it needs to be a little out the way yet still easily accessible. And I wanted a few spare habs to put stuff into later.

This is what I came up with. The bottom habs are storage, one level below the landing bay. Cockpit is two stairs up, but they're in a row so it's just a straight run. Three Medusa-Class, three Zenith-Class, and one Azimuth-Class reactors. A nice viewing deck in the front, and plenty of spare room for now.

Everything has gone black [Bug]

Hello travelers. I'm stuck and I need help. Im nearing the completion of the expedition corvette. I was just about to finish it off going to a planet that looked interesting, before turning everything in. Upon entering the atmosphere, everything went black. I can't see anything. It gets cold and I slowly die but before I do, the game crashes. I close the game and reboot, but everything has gone black and the game crashes. I have close to 70hrs into this amazing game and im worried that this won't fixed itself. Anyone out there has any encouraging words or tips even? If I have to start from scratch... I don't think I could.

Are you having trouble finding a Gas Giant and/or Ocean planet? This post is for you. (Purple system access required) [Screenshot]

TLDR: These are coords (two screenshots) to a gas giant and water planet for people looking for those. Both are in purple systems, so Atlandid Drive required for access.

I have noticed that a lot of people have trouble finding these, even though it seems easy when you’re not looking for them. A lot of kind people have shared coords and such, but some don’t work anymore for whatever reason, so I figured I’d share the two I found in one day after much misery and frustration. (My Freighter has been causing my game to crash lately, so using that wasn’t an option.)

The water planet I found was after I had ported to other people’s shares, and I am sharing it because I find it to be the best planet for farming Lithium I have seen so far. The gate tosses you just over 200 units underwater, but once you make it to the surface, there are multiple islands just right there. I built a little outpost just 275 units away from the gate. Feel free to rest your shield there, park your starship, and/or harvest my garden. Also, feel free to build a base there, obviously. I think this is a given that everyone is free to do that, but I’ve seen people ask anyway because this community is full of very considerate and polite people, so I figured I should specify that I have no problem having neighbors. The outpost isn’t my main base, anyway.

As for the gas giant, this was my first gas giant, as I never found any shared coords for one. I realize they show up when you’re browsing systems, but istg, I searched and searched for hours and hours and never saw ONE until this one. So here are the coords for those who need them. I don’t know if it’s a good or bad planet as far as gas giants go. It has crystallized helium, lots of storm crystals, life-threatening weather patterns, and activated...

Are there any crops worth growing besides Nip? [Question]

Obviously NipNip is optimal for selling but I kinda want to have more than just a massive greenhouse full of NipNip. What else is useful to grow? I know they all have some uses but are any of them helpful enough to harvest said plants regularly? Or is it pretty much just there for decor and you grab it when your settlement needs some lubricant?

Back after many years. Here’s a 360 of my corvette. [Ship Builds]

Shout out to the team at Hello for continuing to produce for this gem of a game! I was a Day 1 player and really enjoyed it, but after a few hundred hours I eventually ran out of steam.

Well needless to say, I’m back now!

Since everything was so new to me, I turned on free building and purchases to allow myself to custom craft whatever I wanted to. That way I didn’t have to re-grind for all of my gear (which I had maxed out when I stopped playing).

Now that I (sort of) have the hang of things, I’ll turn those settings off and continue my journey through the galaxy.

If anyone has any good tips/recommendations for someone who hasn’t played in several years, please feel free to share them!

My humble corvette, the protector of the local system [Ship Builds]

Nothing too special but happy with my first real corvette after the expedition. The lore is it was an old model, basically brought back to life with salvaged parts. It was needed for protection of a settlement which came under continuous pirate attacks, and is now being used as a multipurpose ship in service for the local communities of the planet Kardesh and the local system, with occasional expeditions outside the local suns gravity well.

Preparing to END an Expedition [Question]

So, this is my first expedition. Lots of guides on how to prep for one. But not as many on how to end one. I've finished all my milestones (except Hitchhiker because I have no friends). What should I do before clicking end expedition?

My understanding is that nanites and units carry over. Should I make sure to sell all tech and anything im not bringing with me before ending things?

on that, how many things CAN I bring with me?

What about quicksilver? i got a ton from the final milestone. Should I spend it before ending things?

Can I keep my Corvette? What about all the parts I collected? Should I make a big katamari ball abomination of a ship to bring back as many collected parts as I can?

Should I hatch this lil mecha mouse pet? I think I saw something about getting rewards for each pet you get or something. I'll still get it on my main save even if I hatch it here, yeah?

Any other advice would be appreciated.

New player here. Feel like I’m getting heavily side tracked. [Question]

Had the game for a long time but only started playing when I heard you could make a customizable corvette that you can inhabit. Been playing for about 15 hours now. Feel like I’m getting heavily sidetracked from the main story. He only visited like 3 star systems and the anomaly. I’ve gotten to the point where I need to place 3 signal boosters so this Allen the alien type guy can triangulate my coordinates.

Instead of doing that, I’ve been running around doing side activities like trying to get upgrades for my suit, running a depressing settlement in a mountain of climbing debt, and learning a bunch of words. I have close to 10 million units and I just got the milestone for 180 words learned. Is there a good reason that I should switch focus back to the main story path or am I fine just dicking around some more?

For whatever reason, I feel like if I keep going further into space and new star systems, I’m gonna lose track of where I’ve been.

Is upgrading a ship's class worth it? [Question]

Right what is says on the tin but the greater context is I lucked into getting a sentinel ship really early on and I love it but it is B class. I have since found out how to manually find more of these crashed sentinel ships and intend to get an S class sentinel ship. By scrapping all the sentinel ships I've found so far (all were either C or B class and my ship has upgrades on it so I've been chunking em) I've been able to sell a lot of mods for nanites and now I have like 30k and could upgrade my ship into an A class but is it better to just keep grinding ships to find an S class or should I just upgrade my current one since its not as long of a grind?

Account data and saves completely loss [Bug]

One hour ago, I tried to update the game and when I tried to log into my saves it was just staring me over like a new game.

{Glitched} The X-07 Piraiba [Ship Builds]

So, I decided to watch Beeblebum's "Offset Building Explained" video after all the hubbub on here about glitched versus modded versus vanilla shipbuilding. I play on PC but don't have any mods installed and this (my first attempt) was surprisingly easy. Basically the technique is to use habs and the extra decorative parts in the workshop as "scaffolding" to get parts to rotate and snap where they need to. The video is super helpful for anyone looking to get more creative with their builds! If you're on here, much appreciated Beeblebum! This isn't the first time your videos have come in handy.

I wanted a small streamlined ship to go with my chunky ship, my massive overbuilt ship that's at the part limit, and my kind of medium sized ship. This little guy is perfect!

Corvette parts vs tech upgrades [Question]

I'm really enjoying building corvettes, but i'm still somewhat new to the game and not familiar with later game tech upgrades and optimization.
When building corvettes, I try to fit in 3 of each piece that gives a bonus, and sometimes try to optimize which ones with the goal of creating a reasonably nimble and easy to use ship.
For example, my current corvette runs 3 of each reactor, all stacked in using half-space building techniques, 3+ engines, 3 plasma cannons, etc.
Rationale for this is (please correct my errors here) that I'm capped at 3 normal S-rank upgrades for each system (which I have squeezed in too), and that having 3 of each part should give me 3 additional slots worth of upgrades, even if they don't offer as high a bonus as s-rank tech upgrades.

I can't help but assume my logic is flawed somewhere since normal ships can have waaaay higher damage, warp and maneuverability.

Someone please... correct my logic here lol

I'm 100% sure I could build better ships if I didn't try to add so many extra pieces, and that'd be rad.

pics of my current ride just for fun.

Game crashed during aquatic landing, won't load save game anymore. [Bug]

I have been playing the game off and in since launch, and have recently gotten back into it. I only have around 25 hours on a new save and have fallen in love with the game again! Yesterday I went for an aquatic landing and the game crashed. Today I went to play again, loaded my save game, and 3 times now the game has crashed just as the loading screen finished and before the actual game starts.

Anyone else experienced this?? I really don't want to have to restart...

Dropships are the best 💜 [Ship Builds]

"Something's wrong here, something's REALLY wrong here." My on-board AI chimes in, "Anomaly Detected. I advise we dock and repair the ship immediately." The Outpost wasn't responding to my Distress signal other than an automated response, "DROPSHIP DESIGNATION CG 0111-207-M, CALLSIGN 'DARKSTAR' PLEASE PROCEED TO DOCKING BAY 3 AND AWAIT INSPECTION FROM A UTA TECHNICIAN." Acknowledging the message I proceeded to docking bay 3 and initiated a manual docking procedure. No nav lights, no guidance indicators, no UTA Technicians awaiting my arrival. After the airlock cycled I assumed no one was home. "I swear this is how horror movies are made."

Supercharge slots: how do? [Question]

It's a simple question, but important. Should I be putting to module on the supercharge slot, or the upgrade?

My corvette transferred from the expedition with a solutely nothing physical and I need to rant [Bug]

(Picture: The Cosmic Banana 1.0 before she was lost to the void forever.)

For the first time since buying this game in 2019, I'm... actually enjoying it. After being a scathing critic for so long, it feels weird to say.

I jumped into the expedition on my Steam Deck at the start of this weekend while visiting my partner out of state. I quickly got reaclimated and started knocking out milestones. I finished the expedition last night, planning to do the whole rigamarole of transferring things over from the expedition to my survival save.

It went without a hitch, got the fancy multi tool that I had found while on expedition, got all my tech modules and valuables... and then I transferred my corvette, the Cosmic Banana, over. See, my corvette transferred with all the upgrades that I had gotten on the expedition, but without a physical body or even an icon. I figured it was bugged and my ship was gone, so I sold off some goods and blew all the credits I made on the expedition to buy the corvette modules and made a new one.

About this time, it occurred to me that maybe I just needed to modify my old corvette and things would pop back up. I tried that to no success; my ship was still without an actual, physical body. Then I thought, "well, I may need to build a new corvette, but at least I could build it on my old one so I can keep all the inventory and supercharged upgrade slots.

First of all, there's no way to delete a corvette and reclaim the individual parts. That feels like a massive oversight. As a result, most of my credits were locked up in the new corvette in the form of basic modules, which I could no longer move or reclaim as you can't make a corvette with no body, despite the fact that the Cosmic Banana was exactly that after transferring from the expedition. Ugh. Well, at least I can copy over most of...

How do you move things back from the expedition to the regular save? [Question]

I've finished the expedition (I think, I collected all the badges, though I still have the step and want to transfer things back to the regular save, however when I go to the terminal the only option is to "return to primary save" I can't interact with the technology or cargo blocks on the left to add things to them.

the only step left on my expedition nineteen:corvette log is to "Collect rewards at the space anomaly"...I don't know what to do.

Where. Is. All. My. Expedition. Gear?? [Screenshot]

having difficulty in attaching a screenshot so will mention it instead. Finally go to starting the Corvette mission. Carefully planned my gear at the anomaly expedition terminal. Only to find all my exosuit & spacecraft items missing after crash landing.

Crafted the orbital teleporter and teleported to the station. But now can't find any terminal that will return my gear.

Frustrating because had a lot of survival mats like oxygen, copper etc. needed to craft critical things. Also my base computer, refiner, research unit were part of the inventory I added at the anomaly.

So WTH is my stuff? Really don't want to have to recraft another refiner etc. from scratch.

The glass cuboid room used as “bio-containment” decor [Screenshot]

I was messing around with the cuboid rooms in my base today and I realized the glass cuboid sits almost perfectly within my stone walls, and it looked a lot like a hazard or bio-containment display! I ran power to it, added some lighting, and threw in a classic glitching separator to add the menacing vibe. I’m pretty happy with the way it turned out. I’d love to try it with some vegetation or a wonder projector inside.

Would be super cool if we could build our own terrariums!

I’m sure this has been done before but wanted to share.

Is there any active Roleplay community for No Man's Sky [Question]

I love No Man's Sky! when I got it on PC I couldn't stop playing, and since I joined a community based on roleplaying as an empire with military, governors, senators and stuff, I was so addicted to this game and so into it! Unfortunately that community vanished, and I tried to look for more communities but so far, Galactic Hub and a few similar ones are the only ones that are truly active, and they're not based on roleplay, just people building their stuff and making colonies.

I wanna know if anyone knows any good active community that does roleplay, even if there ain't many people yet. I'll be more than glad to help it grow like I did with the one I used to be part of. I just wanna get back to have cool purposes of exploration, creation and travelling! I miss the old times when people went into the anomaly to advertise their community, now you won't see a single one of those...

Paradise Planet 4,6,5 yellow star myth?? [Question]

I saw a video by a YouTuber named OODA Looper and he said that to find a paradise planet, you don’t need to look for yellow star systems with numbers 4, 5, and 6. He said that paradise planets will spawn at any type of yellow system, despite the number. I found that to be true but in my experience (unless this is confirmation bias) yellow star systems with numbers 4, 5, or 6 have a higher chance to spawn in paradise planets and will have more than numbers 123 7890.

Yellow star systems with numbers 4, 5 and 6 will have three paradise planets where I’ve noticed the other numbers will have one maybe two. And this is of course, looking at systems with 5 to 6 planets/bodies total.

What are your guys‘s experiences? Or do you know?

Derelict Freighter Disappears After Loading from Restore Point from Within Corvette [Bug]

What the title says.

I landed on a derelict freighter with my corvette. Started scavenging but my backpack got full. So I got back to my corvette to put things into the storage container on board. I sat down on my seat in the cockpit to create a restore point. Stood up, reloaded from the restore point. When I stepped outside the corvette again the derelict freighter is gone. However, my corvette is not "floating in space" -- I still had to take off and it consumed a portion of my takeoff fuel.

To make things clear, I was not aware of the "teleport to freighter from inside corvette" function at this time, so I was travelling from my corvette and the derelict freighter by stepping out the hatch and flying.

How can i easily get walker brains? [Question]

Hi, I’m pretty new to the game and I’m trying to get a Walker Brain to install the Conflict Scanner on my ship.

I know that to get a Walker Brain I need to reach level five sentinel alert, but honestly it still feels like a really hard task.

I also know sentinels are basically on every planet, but when I try to find them they just don’t show up, and I’m not sure how to actually track them down.

Could you guys share some tips on how to find sentinels more easily and how to take down a Walker?

Lithium isn’t real [Question]

I know it’s supposed to be on ocean planets or w/e. After about 100 warps I’ve concluded it doesn’t exist. It simply can’t.

-I have the indium drive and tried every system colour I can.

-It doesn’t let me “locate material” in the catalogue (yes I’ve tried constructing whatever in the Nautilon to unlock it)

-I’ve scoured reddit and tried 3 separate portal codes which allegedly warn to ocean planets/systems. None delivered.

Lithium doesn’t actually exist, there’s just no way. It’s an elaborate troll designed to waste hours of your time.

How it Started and where it inevitably led to... [Ship Builds]

Played Starfield when it released, but only really enjoyed the Ship Building mostly (and space combat). So I was excited when the same feature came to NMS. It was the pull I needed to finally try the game. Watched every YT tips to get rich fast and building glitch, played around in creative mode to find out which modules I needed to grind & trade for, and after almost a hundred hours figuring out a seamless looking design with very little ugly clipping, I fell in love with the notch that seemed to perfectly cradle the Ion Barrier Shield Module, that I had to rework the design again to build it twice with a hidden cockpit and a buttload of design lore I had in my head... but... something cripped in... an eventuality as I saw the possible applications of my design... of course I should have known... all space roads lead to Podracing.

P.S. I actually searched online if anyone has tried to recreate a close approximation of Anakin's Pod Racer, but it seemed most have only done Pod Racer inspired ones.

I try adding his friend code but when i hit enter it just pulls up his xbox profile and gives me no option to add him because i’m already friends with him on xbox.

The only/last thing that might be messing it up is that my save has custom settings?

[PS5/PS4] Weird network issue I’ve not seen before… [Question]

So I’m on PS5, my friend on PS4 (who lives on the other side of the state) and I have no problem seeing one another’s lobby and we can join one another with no problem. Yet, my girlfriend also on PS4(who lives in the same apartment) cannot ever join my game or see my lobby.

The only way we can play together is if I send her an invite via PSN to join my game.

Also. When together, I can never see her freighter. She can always see mine. Her freighter is entirely invisible to me. And when she’s on it, it says “phased” over the icon- and as you’d probably predict- I can see my friend’s freighter with no issue.

Why on my own network, can I not see her freighter or be able to join her lobby and vice versa, but I can with a friend across the state?

NMS Dynamic Suit Voice Mod/Tool/Pipeline [NMS Dynamic Suit Voice]

Since the game game out, one of the longest standing gripes has been the repetitive nature of of the suit voice lines (Units received being the biggest culprit). I LOVE this game, but I would also love to help make it even better. I had the idea of seeing if I could set up a system where a suit voice mod didn’t just replace the stock files, but actually used multiple variations of each phrase. With that idea in mind, I started poking around the mod directory, tearing down other voice mods to see what they did and how the game handled them.

After a flash of insight I realized the solution was right there the whole time. And that i was thinking WAY to small. It all comes down not to WHAT voice files the game accesses - but HOW the game ACCESSES and USES the voice files.

What started as a quick proof of concept ballooned into a full companion script that runs alongside the game.

Instead of recycling the same handful of pre-generated clips, this tool/mod generates new lines as they get used. That means no static bank of “units received” or “life support low” — every notification is fresh. It uses a small generative AI model that runs on CPU only, so it doesn’t touch your GPU or impact gameplay. The watchdog script watches for suit lines to be called, and when they are, begins the "Create new phrase/make sound file with TTS/Convert to game-useable format", in most cases well before the game tries to call that same notification again (yes hammering away at a trade terminal can give you repeats, but for the most part, it works exactly as I had hoped).

Not originally intended for anyone else, it was to see if i COULD do it. but once I had something stable I realized it might be worth sharing. I’ve put together a cleaner install method so it’s more accessible. Right now it’s rated for Windows + Steam and requires Python. Adventurous...

Expedition 19: Transferring Rewards [Question]

I played No Man's Sky with all the hype when it first launched and it has been years since I've played. I think my main save said 6 years ago but I swear the last time I played was like 3-4 years ago. Anyway, I just tried it again and it has been fun! There has just been a lot of stuff added and I want to know what I should do.

Where I'm At: I just completed the Corvette Expedition and I did quite enjoy playing again!! I was just wondering how the transferring the valuable items back to the main save work. I did the expedition from my main save and I'd like to keep as much as I can. I also saw that I have a companion egg that I can't transfer. It also seems to have said that expedition rewards are available across saves.

Here are my questions: What does it mean that I get the expedition rewards across saves? Should I keep the cakes? What should I put in the terminal to keep? Corvette Modules, Minerals, etc? Are the Suspicious modules worth it over S modules for technology? Should I put corvette modules into the terminal? Should I equip every module to the corvette to copy over? Are artifacts that are worth a lot worth taking with me? Should I put all my items into the corvette storage to take with me? I should try to sell what I don't keep before ending the expedition? Do I claim rewards again in my main save?

I struggled to find a more straightforward answer for any returning player, so hopefully this helps the surge of players that the game is seeing right now.

Thanks for the responses in advance!

Interested in purchasing the ARG Atlas Pass (IRL) or Explorers edition ship statue [Question]

A few years ago my older brother did the NMS ARG, and recieved the one of the limited Atlas passes they gave out. My dumbass thought there was a secret under the sticker on the back and I tried to peel it up, and in the process ripped it. It was very special to him and ever since I have been looking for a way to make it up to him. As I mentioned in the title, I am interested in buying either another atlas pass or the explorers edition ship statue (which he really wanted when the game came out). I understand these are rare and may very well be outside my price range but I wanted to give it a shot. He's the one that got me into the game, after all. Thanks in advance!

Crashing while corvette building [Bug]

I keep crashing while ship building. Not all the time, but often enough that I have sent a dozen dump files across 2 bug reports. It seems to happen mostly when moving parts that affect module slots, or parts that make parts that affect module slots rotate, like if a storage pod was attached to a wing or something. I thought it might be because my module slots are full with upgrades and such, but it didn't matter even when I stored some modules, it still happened. I haven't lost anything other than time with this, but it is getting on my nerves. Anyone else experiencing this?

Question about quests [Question]

I’ve read that I should do the main quests in a certain order or it can cause problems.

I’ve got to the Artemis quest ‘A Leap in the Dark’ where it wants me to activate a portal and I’m scared what’s going to happen as I guess its going to send me somewhere else.

I haven’t done any of the Atlas quest at all as I read it should keep alternating me between the 2 questlines but it hasn’t despite me having maxed all my exploration milestones except systems discovered, and the survival ones except ships destroyed and extreme survival.

I’m still doing some of the base expanding questline as well, as the agricultural one is slow to progress.

What order should I be doing the quests in? At what point should I stop the one and finish the other etc?

Any advice is appreciated! Google results all seem to be quite old and I know the quests have changed a lot. Just want to make sure I don’t mess anything up or miss anything important as really don’t want to have to start again!

Website for sharing and applying Corvette designs (with save editor JSON) [Information]

Hello, I’m a Korean player who loves No Man’s Sky. I don’t speak English very well, so I’m writing this with a translator—please excuse any awkward phrasing.

About two weeks ago, after the Corvette update, I was looking through my save data and figured out how to back up and reapply Corvette data. Then I thought it could also be used for design sharing, so last weekend I added that feature to my website: 👉 https://azgek-nms.github.io

I’ve already shared it in the Korean community, but since there aren’t many users yet, there are only 6 Corvette designs I uploaded myself and 1 design uploaded by someone else.

Since I made it anyway, I’d love for more players to try it out, so I’m posting here. The website itself is in Korean, but automatic translation should be enough to get the idea.

Here’s how it works:

Copy the raw JSON from your save editor and paste it into the site to share.

Or click on a shared design, apply it, and then paste the generated JSON back into your save editor to save.

It would be awesome if someone could write up a proper English guide, since I don’t have the time to do that myself right now.

Anyway, please give it a try, and if you run into any bugs, I’d really appreciate a report.

Happy space travels, everyone! 🚀✨

We need a Factions update [Discussion]

It's time now I feel we need an update for team factions. We have multiplayer and corvettes to travel with multiple players so having a faction makes sense. Update could have the ability to make faction bases or settlements and add more quests and raids for groups.

corvette gone? [Question]

I'm still new to no mans sky but I was doing some things on a space station when I went up to a random docked ship that looked kinda interesting, so I held the button you wound to enter a ship and it let me. it told me the usual that the ship was now switched to being my main ship which was interesting because I didnt even own it I didnt think, but when I went to swap back my corvette to being my main one, i could not find it anywhere. idk where it went or what but I do not have it at all. am i missing something here? I dont even have the parts I used to build it, it's like when I got into this random ship it despawned my corvette without ever planning to give it back

Bloodbeak [Ship Build Contest]

I wanted to join in on the contest and share some of my corvettes, starting with this one. I made the cockpit low profile here and meshed 2 parts together for that windshield look. Bloodbeak seemed like a fitting name after I set the colors. I was pretty satisfied with how it turned out🤗

trying to do expedition but utterly 100% stonewalled by "derelict freighter". How do i do them?! [Question]

i guess i utterly in every conceivable way DO NOT understand "Derelict Freighter". I have never in all my time playing this game managed to unlock completion of one of these. I can spend hours killing everything, looting everything, walking through all rooms 20 times and never get it to complete.

Now that the entire expeiditon is bound to these, what is the trigger to actually "complete" one of these things. Im even going around making sure i have clicked every single "log fragment" now. Been in this thing today for over an hour already, just finished clearing all the bug nests in case that was preventing me from finishing as well

the "lost in space" thing for the freighter says:

zones mapped 1/0

%CREWSTATE%

%CAPTSTATE%

%ENDSTATE%

What am i supposed to do?!?!??!?!?!?!

after having utterly NOTHING LEFT IN THE WHOLE PLACE, I took the captians log to the station to complete that "lost in space" thing. But i still dont have credit for "completely explore a derelict freighter"

like honestly. what else am i supposed to do? Given i have consumed the item to find a freighter I now have to source another from somewhere but im just going to hit the same issue. I will get every room top say "already mapped" Every log and console will already be visited, every box will be looted every mob will be killed and i'll still have that sitting empty "completely explore" blah blah i did irt, i did that last one 10 times hit every teleporter a dozen each, cleared the side dead end rooms. Theres nothing left

Is it possible for people to access your storage on corvettes? [Discussion]

The NMS Facebook group has some posts where people talk about being able to access other people's storage on their corvettes. While there are many replies explaining that is your own storage, which I also believed to be the case, some replies talk about this storage having things they never owned.

Some comments claim there is a very rare bug allowing access to corvette owner storage in some cases. Is this at all true? I'm building a new corvette and don't want to risk losing stuff when I'm sitting at the Anomaly.

Space doesnt give the best lighting, so i put some old photos from my phone i (Sorry) i took once i finished building (xbox screenshots suck, I wish my pc didnt have issues with nms cause i wanna just print screeen!!!) This is the second ship I built maybe a week in?? But im currently working on one that is going to span the length of the build limit... if i dont run out of parts... uh, took me a while to get the back to look right, and filling in gaps and adding detail ended up putting me at about 94ish parts i think :)

Do you have issues getting into your corvette entrance? Watch the video [Ship Builds]

Tl;dr version: At the end of the video you will see how I added a ladder that I can use to come in and out without using escape hatch. This helps if on uneven terrain.

Not tl;dr version:

They are all 100 or 99 parts. I built em in normal mode but made it custom by making crafting free.

I do enjoy the base building in this game ans the corvette building is amazing. I have yet to dabble interior. Anyway, I have a link to a YouTube 2 or so minutes video showing my 2 corvettes.

One is just a fighter type with black and gold accent. The second one is my take on a pod racer from the legendary starwars lore.

That is just just description of my two corvette if interested .

But I installed a ladder and it helps with entering or exiting ship. Plus it is hidden so it fits the star wars lore for me.

Barren planet for build testing and messing around? [Information]

Interested in base testing without the need for clearing plants or "relocating" animals that get in your way? Terrain being annoying and making builds weird? I happen to find a barren moon that lacks nearly all that. Flat lands, no flora or fauna, and plenty of room to build. No atmosphere also helps with better higher jumping so you can reach high up. Image attached is the portal planet address so feel free to stop by

I only have 1 di-hydrogen jelly in my starship inventory and yet when I make launch fuel (as seen in the video) my single di-hydrogen jelly is still there.

Ground combat and expedition question [Question]

Just finished expedition 19, my first ever and had a blast while doing it. Did play along with Jason Plays' playthrough as many mechanics were completely new to me.

At one point we needed to stop sentinals within the system and Jason did this by picking a fight and warning the viewer due to his experience he'll make it looks easy. imho he wasn't wrong, I got behind slapped to new worlds.

Which leads me to my questions:

Are there any items or modules which allow me to replenish health and shields? Talking about the top left indicators.

I had every weapon provided slotted and I think at one point I was even accidentially trying to reel them in with my fishing rod or something. Is there a weapon veteran players will advice new players to start with due to ease of use? Aka NMS equivalent of Counter-Strike noobstick?

Btw, thanks to everyone putting out community created waypoints, bases with copper, etc. Really felt I was playing alone but being carried by the community.

Lesson Learned: Corvette (Do Not Teleport To Your Freighter from Space Station) [Bug]

I decided to end the day yesterday by teleporting to my freighter, dumping some stuff into my cargo holds and then saving the game. This morning I wake up and continue my materials dumping. When finished I got back to my corvette and I was bugged into the freighter/clipping through the ship unable to fly away. I had to kill my ship to get free. So if you happen to find yourself in the same situation, just keep crashing into your freighter until you are dead.

Question about colors? [Question]

When did the colors for interiors change?? Specifically for inside the freighters. Been about a year since I've actively played my main save and even longer since I messed with the interior but I did tonight. Found out the color scheme is gone. Nothing matches the original. Forgot to take a pic unfortunately...I'm a bit of a space cadet.

Visual Bug - disappearing stuff (PS5) [Bug]

Came back after some time, took some pics [Screenshot]

It's the Starborn Phoenix I think it's called, I had no idea it was unique. It was given to me by an entity in the anomaly, some say it's a reward for an expedition but I've never done any expeditions. I really love that noir type planet I found I called the planet Soft & Wet because instead of normal rain Bubbles fall, the double rainbow and the tones of the terrain reminded me of Jojolion

Updated: Escort Corvette NMS Koi [Ship Build Contest]

This is a 99-complexity update to a build from 3 days ago. After thinking about it, I decided to make it a ship that can run/evade, rather than fight. So, it doesn't make sense to call it an escort. Now it's a VIP transport, that takes rich old Gek on exotic fishing vacations.

I made some external changes, added some onboard modules, and indoor decorations. I'm sure I will make a couple more adjustments and add some furniture, but I'm starting to feel good about it. I hope you like it as much as I enjoyed making it!

Apparition in Station [Screenshot]

Was exploring this station, selling off derelict frigate logs, when I saw this guy walking around. Talked to it and it put on a mask of my face and the options the game presented me with were something I forgot, hug it, or die. I chose to hug it and now it'll trade me 4 nanites for 40k units. Also sent me to a planet in the system with a little Atlas-shaped grave and gave me a memory that turned into an S-tier Scanner upgrade. How rare is this?

AGGRESSIVE sentinels.... truly a pain the Atlas. [Question]

So, is it just me or are the sentinels Rather Aggressive??

In fact, I can't seem to find a planet that does not have Aggressive sentinels as they staple.

I've jumped to all sorts of types of systems, Different economy, different Race and the like, and the Sentinel Level on Each planet seems to be the same. AGGRESSIVE.....

Now, to be fair, I'm playing Expedition 19, not sure if they are turned up for the Expeditions, as I've not played many before to be honest. AND it's been a while since I've played NMS all together, so I'm coming back to the game with this Expedition and am experiencing a LOT of new things anywyays, so not sure if Sentinel aggression has changed overall or what.

Thanks

Fauna Overhaul [Suggestion]

Fauna are one of the most notable draws to exploration, but currently one of the most limited. The options for procgen bodyparts are relatively few and the system feels extremely dated, as do the interactions available for wildlife & tamed pets, especially after all the other detailed updates over the years. I have a few suggestions for an overhaul to the system, with an eye to making it more dynamic and more rewarding, for both exploration & taming.

Gameplay Changes

• Add dozens of extra procgen body parts for wild fauna. New heads, ears, legs, feet, muzzles, eyes, antlers, etc. make for interesting variation. New two-necked variants could allow for multiple heads on one body.

• All pets are tameable. This includes flying pets and water pets; when water pets are summoned, they will appear floating in a water bubble.

• Edit to the Gene Splicer: current behavior sees the egg Gene Splicer simply altering between two variants (genders) of the same creature. The new version would instead associate various ingame items with different procgen bodyparts, allowing for deliberate transformations. This could either be per body part (i.e. there's bodypart slots in the Gene Splicer, and Carbon could change the "head" slot to "canine") or per item, i.e. inserting Carbon into the overall gene splicer slot will give the egg's inhabitant a "canine" head.

Quality of Life

• Extend Personal Wonders page to 50 entries. Allow us to create faux "zoos" with the Wonder Projectors.

• Double unlockable companion slots. This will allow for more in-depth breeding projects or just fun collections, or the creation of zoos and such using the second building piece mentioned below.

• Preview colors in the gene splicer as swatches after unlocking them once. Right now, online guides have to be searched up; previewing them freely would also be fine, but unlocking the preview would give...

OP Boltcaster Build [Discussion]

Just wanted to post my Boltcaster build for anyone looking for a min-maxed endgame setup. I use the Boltcaster in tandem with the Paralysis Mortar/Voltaic Amplifier. Boltcaster upgrades are as follows:

-X Class - +2% Damage, 1.9 Shots Per Burst, Burst Cooldown -19%, Fire Rate +20% -X Class - +2% Damage, 1.9 Shots Per Burst, Burst Cooldown -19%, Fire Rate +20% -X Class - +2% Damage, Fire Rate +20%, Clip Size +9.0, Reload Time -6% -Forbidden Multi-Tool Module - Fire Rate +20%, Damage +2%, Reload Time -15% -Forbidden Multi-Tool Module - Fire Rate +20%, Damage +2%, Reload Time -15% -Forbidden Multi-Tool Module - Fire Rate +20%, Damage +2%, Reload Time -15% -Barrel Ioniser

Note: I did not opt for the third X Class mod with Burst Cool Down and Shots Per Burst. This makes the Boltcaster recoil unmanageable (DPS suffers, but weapon effectiveness is key here). Additionally, I did not install the Ricochet Module, as it also makes the recoil unmanageable. Sentinels get absolutely shredded in one or two hits with this setup and you can pretty much go full auto by spamming the trigger.

What influences the random tilting and shaking of ships during autopilot? [Question]

Some of my corvettes randomly shake and tilt during autopilot -> maintain current ship path when flying over a planet's surface. Other ships of mine are much more quiet and almost don't shake at all (same planet). Has anyone found out what influences this?

It seems to be the ship trying to adjust to the terrain height during flight, and this is actually a cool feature, but some of my ships do it very smoothly, mostly flying straight, only lifting up when major hills are in the way, and some ships seem to adjust to every nook and cranny in the terrain, which leads to a very jarring tilting and shaking that makes me sick.

The ships that do it strongly do so no matter the height over terrain. So it must have something to do either with ship stats or with actual construction of the ship.

#

Anyone up to building this? [Ship Builds]

Title. Was just curious if anyone has a bunch of free time, enjoys building corvettes and wanted to try building the Deucalion from Aldnoah.Zero. It was one of the first ships I'd thought of when corvettes came about (bar the obvious ones), along with a couple others that have gone unnoticed, and after trying for hours myself, I couldn't seem to manage it, mostly due to how thin the wings are and the angle they sit at. Mods & Glitches are a-okay, but it'd be nice if they could be avoided, purely so fans of the ship that don't have access to those things would be able to build it themselves. There is also the alternate body for anyone interested! (last image)
This is mostly just to see if it's possible to build it, as these are designs that I honestly just have a soft spot for.

Absolute Bat-Wing [Ship Build Contest]

Unfortunately the colours are bugged and don't apply when I exit the menu but this was my take on a more gritty Bat-Wing. Heavily inspired after reading the Absolute Batman series(highly recommend) but I've accepted that his design would probably be a lot more practical and less flashy lol.

Last slide is a slightly different earlier design

NMS continously crashing [Bug]

Hello, I've got a major crash problem with NMS: often. well almost always, the game keeps on crashing, meaning it can hang 10 times in half an hour. This is what happens especially at the beginning of the day. For some reason it seems to improve then, and it can let me play for half an hour or even more, and then maybe keeps on crashing back again. I've updated Nvidia drivers, Net framework, C++ libraries, cleaned the cache of the game, set low graphics, deactivated antialiasing and what not, but it doesn't seem to help, if anything things are worsening. From this morning, when the game crashes, I cannot stop the game in Steam, but it's necessary to close Steam itself. I'm very disappointed because I like this game a lot, but, as you can imagine, playing like this is almost impossible. I can't ply multiplayer for example, or I have to re-do things because the save file can be a couple of mins old. I'd like to ask if anyone else is facing the issue, and if so, if he's addressing that, somehow. Thanks a lot in advance!

Ye can make exteriors into large interiors. [Ship Builds]

I haven't furnished it yet but me stairs leads to above the habs at the bottom, so I'm technically outside but it can still look like the ship interior and make walls around it. The ceilings can be as high as you want and the space won't be so claustrophobic. You can see I started building the walls in the back of my ship but I reached the build capacity, plus I like the space to be more open, better than windows I suppose.

Is there a way to dispose of units? [Question]

Weird question I know - first time player, 10 hours in and loving every moment. I was gifted an item in the anomaly that I saw was worth 600m units and I thought surely that's a bug...nope. Although having this many units is cool, I'm worried it'll take away from my journey through the game as now I don't need to save for my first corvette and freighter. Would I be right in thinking that? If so, what's the quickest way to get rid of these units?

Permadeath - Much "easier" with the new Corvette [Information]

Hi all,

i play NMS since release and since 2018 on my Xbox with the current save file.
I tried Permadeath a few times now incl. the limitation around damage, increased costs and smaller inventory size (300 stack limit is still horribile!).

With the new corvettes it got way easier to succeed in Permadeath and I think it is a good time for everyone that wants a challenge but still have fun in the game to give it a try.

I focused from the start to get a corvette as early as possible, mainly because of the possibility to add additional storage into it - storage was for me always the biggest problem, due to the increased costs to recharge, build and repair at some point it is hard to keep up farming new materials.

I scraped a few broken ships I found via the Artemis and Pirat mission. With the extra money I was able to create my first corvette and directly installed a storage unit into it - from there it was way easier, since I was no longer limited to just keep the parts I need now + it makes way more fun now :)

Everyone that is looking for a little challenge - I can recommend trying the hardcore version of NMS!

Crashing unless Windows Audio Service is turned off [Information]

I'm just making this post for documentation, maybe it can help others having a similar issue.

My NMS crashes immediately unless I first disable the Windows Audio Service in Windows. Once the game is up I can then re-enable the service without issue.

However, this was really annoying me, so I wanted to figure out a more "proper" solution for this. And I think I have.

I can make No Man's Sky not crash on launch if I just make sure my "RealTek(R) Audio" speaker is enabled in the sound control panel. I don't know why this works. It just does. If I click Don't Allow on it, then NMS starts crashing again.

Set it up like this. With the default speaker being whatever you usually use.

The speaker does not have to be marked as a default or anything like that, you can still use your normal speakers as default.

I hope this helps someone, as I couldn't find any other threads where this solution was mentioned.

35 year old gamer in nms [Discussion]

Hello guys, ill keep the story short, i enjoy nms, i have it since from the start, i only played the expeditions mainly, which i used to beef up my main save, i have some knowledge about the game, 2 years ago i started a family, lost contact with most of my friends that are still single and playing games, well to put it frankly i enjoy playing with people sometimes, makes it feel less of a grind, and i lack the time to spend hours in a discord and befriend other people, when i get to play, its for 2-3 hours at best, when my wife takes my boy to stay for the weekend in the coubtryside at her parents i get like 48 hours so there's that, are there any people here that find themselves in the same situation? That maybe they want to play with other people too? If so let me know, I am from Romania (situated in Europe) gmt +2, im friendly and generous so if there are new players in the game could certainly help them with advices amd not only that, thats about it. o7 see you among the stars.

Seriously, this game… 😘👌 [Screenshot]

Went to a lush planet out of curiosity, expecting beautiful landscapes… but it turned out to be pretty generic. Stumbled upon an outpost near my landing zone. Went inside, spoke to the NPC, looted everything, and solved the console "puzzle", which pointed me toward a relic site on another planet. Followed the marker and ended up on this weird, mostly monochromatic world with orange hues, dotted with mountain-sized mushrooms, drowned in a constant rain. Then bumped into this even weirder wireframe-plant giant dog-like creature, adopted it, and took it for a ride. And as we were strolling around, we saw two massive planetary archive facilities piercing through the planet’s thick fog…

This game never stops amazing me, it’s unreal 🥰

Just a celebration [Community Content]

I go through phases where I play the game for a few months real serious, several hours daily, to dormant periods where I focus on drawing my comics. I haven't played since this new update but I just want to say this community is the absolute most fun, creative and satisfying to have in my feed. I scroll on my lunch break and so often say like "holy shit!" out loud when I see what you all create. I can not WAIT wait to build my corvette. I will probably try to build the Bebop as my main fighter that I love is modeled after the Swordfish.

In a godawful internet and cultural landscape the No Man's Sky sub is a near bottomless source of good vibes, incredible creativity and celebration of a game and company that is making art for the absolute best reasons and not just as greed pigs.

I've actually started casually remarking to people that my new hope is that if there's an afterlife, I want it to be something close to your soul leaving your body and being able to cruise the galaxy like No Man's Sky. Society as a whole would be improved if the culture surrounding this game seeped more into our day to day.

XEN-2h-R4 “Dungar” [Ship Build Contest]

Ship Registry: XEN-2h-R4 “Dungar”

Manufacturer: Xerathian Engineering Nexus (XEN)

Class: Industrial Tug & Short-Range Hauler

Designation: XEN 2 Heavy — Revision 4

Hull Profile: Compact beetle-form exoshell with reinforced docking arms

Powerplant: Early-generation plasma-fusion core

Primary Role: Tow operations, cargo repositioning, and limited deep-space hauling

Crew Capacity: 2 (short-duration habitation module)

Notable Features:

Four heavy-duty exterior manipulator arms for bracing, towing, and salvage work

Six plasma tether projectors for locking onto larger vessels or cargo during push-pull maneuvers

Overbuilt towing clamps designed for oversized hauls

Crude but durable Kineostream thrusters optimized for raw pushing force

Minimalist interior — functional, cramped, built for utility not comfort

The Dungar is an old but enduring workhorse of the XEN fleet, a tug-class vessel that embodies grit and utility over grace. Designed with multiple arms and plasma tethers to wrangle ships far larger than itself, it is the unsung hero of salvage crews and dockyards. Though primitive compared to later XEN models, the Dungar’s scarab-like frame and brute force made it indispensable for the dirty, dangerous work of keeping the void’s traffic moving.

New player having a blast [Screenshot]

I’ve wanted to like this game for a long time but I just never could get past an hour or two. I hopped back on a few days ago and now it’s all I can think about. I’m constantly googling information and watching YouTube for advice. I keep forgetting to take screenshots and now my corvette is on its 4th redesign (2nd design in pic). I’m trying to slow down and just enjoy the process. There’s just always one more thing I need to do before I go to bed lol. Only thing that sucks is none of my friends are too interested in the game. I guess if I had a question it would be, is it hard to make acquaintances at the anomaly? Happy to be traveling, thanks y’all.

Expedition corvette [Question]

Has anyone experienced an issue moving their expedition corvette to their main save?

When I tried, I received empty space with a starship icon in it.

It's time to give us space stations [Suggestion]

With the corvette update being such a success, the ability to share in space areas that can be customized should be further expanded upon. The best way to do that is to allow players to make custom space stations.

Ideas / help [Bug]

I was playing the main mission “Awakenings”, at the part where you take your first jump through a portal and, upon arrival, your starship becomes damaged. In my case, I used my main starship, a blue squid (exotic) that I had just purchased from a space station.

When I first saw the squid, I loved it and did everything to buy it: I sold all my items and trade for a crashed ship I had repaired. ( at that time I didn't know how rare she was). This became my main ship.

I then used it to perform the portal jump (Awakenings mission).

After the jump, the ship completely disappeared:

It was not visible on the planet, even though the scanner said I had reached the destination.

It did not appear in the HUD or in the quick menu to summon.

It was invisible and missing from my inventory, and I could not recover it.

At that time, I was new to the game (about 40 hours of playtime)(still lol) and I didn’t fully understand the save system. Unfortunately, I created new saves after the bug, which meant I could not go back to before the portal jump.

I continued playing, visited many planets and even completed the latest expedition.

Now, with the yesterday Voyagers hotfix, the squid reappeared in my starship menu, but:

It is marked as damaged.

I cannot summon it (the game says it is unavailable).

I do not know which planet or system it is located in, since I kept playing after the bug.

is there any way to recover this ship?

Can I locate it in some way?

I would really appreciate your help / ideas to try to solve this.

Thank you very much for your time...Just for reading this

Where Large Rooms?? [Suggestion]

Why can't I delete the midsections between rooms? It makes larger ships such a confusing maze and so confined, why can't I make a large common-room sorta thing? Maybe even combine layers of rooms for more headspace!

It puzzles me that this was somehow not implemented despite the amount of interior variety it would add.

Expedition Base Fail [Discussion]

So I decided to do an expedition for the first time ever. I just got back into the game after a several year hiatus. Anyways, I started building a base on one of the planets that you get put into, but now I can't find it. I don't remember what planet is on it, I didn't build a teleport on it because I just started with the floors and walls and had to leave the base to go to the space station, and now I can't find it. I have no idea where to go. All I know is that is one of the planets with uranium on it 🤔

Repeated Guild Donations Help? [Question]

Thanks in advance!

Purple star system unlock requirement issues [Bug]

So I've completed the atlas path (I have a star seed in exotic suit) Completed story to new beginnings Did harmonic camp 7 times

No matter what I try I cant seem to trigger the quest to unlock purple star systems. Currently going back through side quests and unlocking blueprints hoping it will happen randomly.

Am I stuck? [Question]

I've only recently started this game and have started on a little base on a planet, I flew my ship to a different area of the planet to try get some sodium. My laser isn't good enough to mine it so I thought I fly back to base to try upgrade it, only my ship is now out of launch thruster and I don't have anything with me to recharge it.

It's a 7min walk/sprint back to base, is the only option to sit and sprint for 7mins straight?

Same day discovery. Found a planet that looks like some germs and found a new pet and a new decoration [Screenshot]

Jumped on another solar system that does not have a space station just to discover another weird petrified planet with a redacted weather. Was able to get a decoration and a new pet. Unfortunately, I cant ride the creature. I hope we also get to have options to build space stations in uncharted systems.

It's crazy looking at this game not only after its launch, but as an outsider looking in [Discussion]

I remember the game launching to, well, pretty terrible reviews across the board and after just now stumbling across this sub after all these years I decided to see how the game had changed and I'm incredibly impressed by the work the team has done to improve the game since launch. And the community itself seems not only incredibly talented but welcoming as well. I'm honestly pretty intrigued about trying the game out myself

The Monstrosity [Ship Builds]

What would happen if you crossed Sir Mix-A-Lot's " My Hooptie" with Johnny Cash's "One Piece at a Time?" A really weird mashup and possibly this ship. I have just been adding parts as I get them from tasks or finding them in salvage scrap. No rhyme or reason to putting them together or even a consistent color scheme.

I hope at the end I can bring this beautiful beast to my regular save.

Hear ye, hear ye! Two suggestions. [Suggestion]

SPOILERS AHEAD: First of all, yes I still think about Artemis. I think with the autophage update and the ability to bring these robots to life, there should be a side mission that allows you to transfer Artemis’ soul from the anomaly into a new robot body. That was my justification, knowing we would figure out the technology later on, in keeping her alive. To everyone who decided to let her go though, well the world works in mysterious ways.

Secondly, with the addition of skydiving I think it’s only natural they add skiing. It would give more purpose to establishing on ice planets and give my ski resort functionality.

Thank you! That is all.

Corvettes are awesome, but I’ll wait for bug fixes. [Discussion]

I'm just as excited about the new Corvette deployment as anyone, but I've found that there are still too many bugs for it to be properly usable. As a player on PS5, I'm limited to the base pieces, no mods for me. The my main issues I found are:

• Lack of variety. A lot of the pieces are just slight variations of each other. • Limited snapping. Snapping is a major issue; many pieces can't be rotated for no reason at all. I would love to place the Ceto-class reactor on the underbelly of my ship. • Numerous bugs. I've experienced several bugs, including falling out of the Corvette when getting too close to the round windows. There are many poorly joined pieces where you can see outside, and once it was impossible to board using the lift entrance, I would just clip out. Sometimes windows appear as a smaller version from a distance before becoming the full-sized one as you get closer. If you wear a cape while warping, it flickers like hell. • Limited interior decoration. Interior decoration possibilities are quite limited. There's little to no snapping and almost no flat surfaces to place decals or other items. Rugs will clip with most floors, as they are not flat and they rotate constantly when placing them. • Landing difficulties. Landing on most uneven terrain makes it difficult to approach the ramp or lift, not to mention the base clipping issues.

Don't get me wrong, the Corvette expansion is incredibly promising, and I can't wait to do some proper traveling in it. However, I think that right now, it's little more than a showcase feature for very creative players. I feel the expansion would have benefited from six more months of testing and fine-tuning. This feels like the same mistake Hello Games made at launch, with the difference being that we now know they're capable of creating an awesome experience, so I'm sure most of us would have been...

corvette missing [Bug]

I'm still new to no mans sky but I was doing some things on a space station when I went up to a random docked ship that looked kinda interesting, so I held the button you would to enter a ship and it let me. it told me the usual that the ship was now switched to being my main ship which was interesting because I didnt even own it I didnt think, but when I went to swap back my corvette to being my main one, i could not find it anywhere. idk where it went or what but I do not have it at all. I dont even have the parts I used to build it, it's like when I got into this random ship it despawned my corvette without ever planning to give it back

Thargoid Interceptor Corvette [Ship Builds]

After my last ship build, a commenter challenged me to make a Thargoid Interceptor. Well, challenge accepted!

Honestly the 100 piece limit killed me, this could do with another 25 or so pieces and it’d be complete, but I’m happy with how it turned out - the second time.

My first effort was probably better, but game crashed 5 pieces from the end, and on reload, well, let’s just say I only had 8 pieces of scaffolding down since I’d last been able to save. Lessons learned. Haha

What's the most reliable way to find crashed fighters to salvage? [Question]

So far I've been buying Distress Signal maps from cartographers on space stations, but those distress signals can come from any number of things - crashed freighters, abandoned buildings, etc.

I'm specifically looking for crashed ships that I can salvage for parts so I can build my own fighter, but it's a roll of the dice whether you even get a crashed ship, let alone a fighter. So it's taking forever to unlock fighter parts specifically. Is there any way to find them more easily?

(Also if there's some better way to unlock fighter parts beyond salvaging wrecks, I'd love to hear it. I even tried switching difficulty to Creative but that doesn't unlock anything in the Starship Constructor.)

Corvette parts [Question]

Settlements general question [Question]

Ive upgraded most building in it to a or s class but I've o ly been prompted to build 1 marketplace and 1 fishing lake, had loads of citizen requests instead. Is it because I've been building up thr other until around the place or is it just RNG and I've been unlucky?

#

The nemesis system [Discussion]

Just started playing the game (about 50 hours so far) and new to this subreddit so forgive me if this has been mentioned before 😅.

Anyways, out of any game I've ever played no man's sky is the game that would most benefit from the nemesis system. Like just finding alien allies, recruiting them and then during a random ass firefight, they could betray you. Or you could recruit surrendering enemies onto your crew.

Also imagine all of this but in vain of the clones wars TV show. Like what if shooting the ships doesn't always make them blow up but they crash onto another planet. Then you have the choice to go after the pirate to either kill him, recruit him, rob him but let him live or just take him prisoner to sell him as a slave. But if you don't go after the pirate then there's a chance he could come back stronger and want revenge.

Anyways, sorry if this has been mentioned before but I just thought it was a cool ass idea 😊

Settlement Overseer gameplay and Base Building should be integrated [Suggestion]

200 hours in and loving the game so far, but as a mostly singleplayer gamer I'm kind of annoyed at how disconnected Settlement management is with the base building experience, at it makes building a home base feel kind of empty.

You can either:

  1. Build the base of your dreams anywhere you want, but there's nothing there asides from the standard terminal NPC's and the automated mining and your farms.

or

  1. Become Overseer of a pre-built settlement that you grow out of debt, manage the citizens, and defend against raids, but you can't build your own stuff there.

It would be amazing if you could make an entire settlement from scratch with your base building tools that you can manage as Overseer. Most of the functions of buildings in Settlements are already centered around consoles anyway with the actual structures being decorations, so maybe we can have a structure designated as say the Overseer Administration Building by building the appropriate Admin console on it, which will then turn the base into a Settlement and populate the base area with NPC's. Then we can designate habitats, factories, etc. using other consoles as well. Upgrades can be done the same as with the standard Settlement where you upgrade its rank by spending resources, since it's not like the appearance of the structures we already have changes anyway.

There's even already a system in game that can be done here: the Nexus missions for building Outposts already makes you create structures based on a certain layout; So perhaps when you place say a habitat console it'll give you a quest to build a structure that has at least a certain amount of elements, for example it needs to have at least 2 floor panels, 5 walls, a door, and two roof panels. It'll allow for some customization of how the buildings look while still making it a quest you have to do to get a...

Help! S Class Freighter vs S Class Dreadnaught [Question]

Any advise is appreciated I know dreads can help fight sentinel capital ships but generally what’s considered “better”, or “rarer” or “harder to get” etc.

USS Excelsior NX-2000 [Ship Builds]

Finished my first real corvette build, completely vanilla, the USS Excelsior! Very difficult with the 100 part limit, I had to remove a lot more detail pieces (especially on the nacelles, barely had enough for the saucer).

I used only random parts I received via grinding during the Voyagers expedition. I just brought it over to my main save, going to work on interiors next. I think I captured some of the profiles of the ship. The deflector area is my fave.

Getting some weird invisible walls between side-by-side ambassador habs in the saucer, can't traverse through the doorway openings, have to go around via the front or back of the hab.

Sorry, I suck at screenshots.

Flyable Ships: aesthetics/utility/both? [Discussion]

I’ve obtained one of each type of ship and managed to get all of them (corvette included) to perform approximately the same in terms of maneuverability, damage, and hyperdrive range. Basically I feel comfortable taking out a pirate dreadnought in any one of them.

The trouble is that I can’t really decide when to use any one of them? There’s no clear winner in terms of overall utility.

For example, of all the standard ships, I love my solar the most. Highly maneuverable, almost never need to recharge anything, and I think it looks nice.

I also love the look of U-Wing sentinel ships. Their ability to hover is nice when I’m farming resonators after disabling sentinels on a planet.

Exotics all perform about the same and they look nice in general but don’t really offer any benefit over the others.

My living ship was neat at first but I use it the least… it just doesn’t stand out for me.

Corvettes can hover and I like the autopilot in space so I don’t have to “mark” a planet to find it. It’s also nice for sentinel ship hunting since I don’t have to find a spot to land (still getting used to where the teleporter will get placed).

None of them are amazing for what I do the most… exploring a planet and scanning stuff.

I’m curious how others utilize their fleet?

Recently discovered the nanite reward technology [Discussion]

I haven’t paid attention to the tech for my 100 hours playing, but recently added the nanite reward ones to my multi tool during the expedition. So if fauna analysis rewards are 19,800%, then the normal 2,000 nanite reward would be 396,000 nanites. That’s crazy imo.

On a side note, the reward still says 2,000 on the catalogue menu. I can’t test it because the scanner isn’t working for me 2/5 times all of a sudden after the latest update.

Doubled controller inputs with steam input [Question]

Doubled input is being recorded when using a switch pro controller through steam input. Most of the time this is not noticeable, however when attempting to “quick transfer” stacks between inventories, the doubled input will immediately cause “quick splitting” so only half of an inventory stack can be transferred in this way. the control remapping does not allow for “quick transfer” and “quick split” to be remapped independently. they are locked to the same button and rely on contextual game states to be differentiated.

this issue seems to be unresolvable on the users end. either through manipulation of steam settings or in game control settings. Disabling steam input is not an option, as far ask i can tell, as the game does not seem to natively recognize the controller. Contoller layouts do not matter.
There is a 2 year old post in this reddit about remapping a different input and that solving the issue. it does not. in fact, unmapping every other control possible and remapping all others to use a different button similarly does not prevent this issue from occurring.

all of the positive press had me excited to see what no man's sky is like in 2025, but this issue is actually hugely frustrating. I attempted M&K controls, which do not have this issue but are in a very special category of uniquely terrible.

any one with any actual, real insights would be appreciated. I know its fun to comment on things with like" i dont have that issue" or "try googling it" is the kind of thoughtless garbage reddit encourages with its participation achievements, but I don't wish to get blown up by notifications for nothing

A question about thoroughness [Question]

Hi there fellow gamers!

I just have a question about how thorough everyone is about every planet/system before moving on?

I have a mindset of a completionist/perfectionist so from the first solar system as i wake up i try to "finish" each planet before moving on to the next planet/system. I really don't like leaving behind unfinished worlds.

So catching all the fauna is usually not so bad and they net a nice nanite bonus, especially in the start but minerals and flora is just killing me and tbh makes the games less enjoyable.

Now i know it's not the game that is at fault here, but my brain. I've been trying to just leave it behind me because i am wasting time on irrelevant things, i have like 27hrs and i haven't yet progressed to meeting Apollo.

So i was thinking if i could get some input from other travellers it might be easier for me to not get stuck in my perfectionist mindset.

Game Crash while Helping a Traveler [Information]

So I don't really know what tag to use for this, late last night I was helping a new player, I think his name was something like Jokovi and something else, he plays on XBox, the thing is I was helping him with a few things and I was going to take him in my Corvette to a Pirate system to get some materials and upgrades for him, and my game crash while in jump, I don't know what happen to him, I hadn't add him to my list, incidentally before I could just hit the add to friend list and that was it, now it ask for friend codes and what not, any how I don't know what happen to him, I couldn't find him in the Anomaly, so this basically a shot in the dark, to see if I can get in contact with him, my gamer tag is Gazer, and well Idk I just hope he could get back to the Anomaly, he didn't have a corvette yet, so Idk if he can even call a ship if he was left stranded in space, am just hoping he sees this, I know it 1 in a billion chance, but my dude am sorry I left you stranded, the game close on me I could still hear you in voice chat, but I couldn't do anything the crash window had come up, so I'll I could do was stare at it or close it, I just hope you manage to save yourself somehow. And again am sorry that happens, there are some major bugs still in the update :/

Absolutely love the like-mindedness you encounter with random players despite lack of text chat on console [Discussion]

So I needed the Hitchiking milestone in the expedition but kept struggling to find anyone last night - anomaly always empty.

I ended my play session in a space station and today when I log in I immediately I see another players' corvette docked behind mine with them stood by it. I excitedly run over and emote point at the ship + need help! then run onto their ship. They immediately understand, hop in the pilot seat fly me out. I dance in celebration once the milestone pops then he drops me back at the station. I point at my ship, he follows and I fly him out so he can get the milestone too then drop him back.

Boom. Job done. All entirely through awkward emote communication. Felt very wholesome.

This community is like nothing else [Discussion]

I am a new player, bought the game after the recent update. Have been really enjoying my time playing and learning the ins and outs. I started the expedition a week ago and didn’t spend much time before I gave up. Then I realized I could make an entire Corvette without spending any units and decided to pick it back up again.

I’ve really enjoyed the expedition and just completed it. It was far and away much more fun and interesting than I expected.

During one of my trips to the anomaly, I went afk for probably 30 seconds. When I walked back and checked my screen, I noticed someone stopped near me. Having heard stories about people randomly dropping crazy loot on others, I checked my inventory and saw they gave me 2 items that equated to ¾ of a billion units. I chased after him and gave him a thank you emote and he blasted off into space.

Just wanted to say this community is a breath of fresh air when so many other games are toxic and a drag to play after a long day. See you out there fellow travelers!

Corvette Building Option Ideas [Suggestion]

First off, want to say that this update brought me back to the game years after setting it down! Absolutely love building a base that I can take with me anywhere! And seeing everyone's super unique creations is so much fun. Sorry this post is rather long as I'm dumping all of my thoughts, opinions, and suggestions. TL;DR at the bottom.

The building is nice and easy with the '3d grid' style....BUT as someone who finds a lot of enjoyment in base-building, and who understands the mechanics of the building style provided by the game pretty well, I'm itching for more freedom in designing corvettes! (I know, I know, you just gave us this amazingly fun game mechanic, and we're already asking for MORE)

Locking building components to certain axis and angles is really helpful when first learning how to put a corvette together, but I crave having the option to fully rotate pieces. For example, having the hull pieces be able to be flipped 90 degrees, rather than only 180 so it can be used as a vertical wall, rather than only a ceiling or floor (if that makes sense?).

Rotating habs 90 degrees would also be great for customization. If internal modules could be built on front and back walls, rather than just the sides could help with that, too. The ability to diagonally place pieces would also be so nice. I'll also throw in the common request for the ability to remove the center of two or more side-by-side hab pieces to make one large room.

Another thing is the build limit. I suppose it's in place to help with loading all the pieces graphically? It would be super duper if the build limit could be raised somehow, maybe we have to complete a quest line or could purchase or find a limit raising upgrade or something. I regularly run into the limit when I'm like 70-80% done with a build idea (yes, I like to make large corvettes). I know mods exist for now.

Meandering a bit here:...

It's a Great Start!! [Ship Builds]

This update really got me interested in finally starting NMS and it's been pretty awesome so far. Coming from spending hours in Starfield making custom ships, this is an awesome update! It's actually nice to be able to fly around with a purpose lol. I haven't unlocked all of the parts yet so it's a constant wip but this will keep me happy for a good while!

BTW, does anybody know why there's a pink/purpleish tint in photomode? I captured screenshots because photomode seemed like it had a filter over it even though it was on the default filter.

My Corvette got reseted back to basic design [Bug]

I jumped to a different star system, then I visited a planet that made my screen go completely dark except for the UI. I tried reloading a restore point but the corvette design was reverted and all the parts that it was using disappeared. Strangely enough it remained upgraded to S class.

I don’t know if i’ll be able to recover this or should I just move on? Feels bad since I spend so much time gathering those parts and making the design.

Corvette Throwaway Design 01 - Cazador [Ship Builds]

This is intended as a one-off design that can be copied, altered, whatever. I really like making ships but I dont want to keep them all so feel free to use this however you want.

Is there a NMS mod/a workaround that would allow me to sit down in VR/use emotes in VR? [Question]

I’m not talking about being able to sit down while playing the game as a whole, I’m talking about a mod/work around that would allow my NMS character to sit on a sofa/the ground (like flatscreen players do) while in VR so that I can also sit down in real life and feel like I’m sitting on the sofa/floor.

Currently, when in VR I can’t interact with couches and I don’t have an emotes menu like you do in flatscreen, so my character is always standing, wether or not I’m sitting in real life. I want to be able to sit down and have my character reflect that. I’ve tried standing up really tall and resetting my play space and then sitting down to get me lower, but then my hands are all messed up and my camera is inside the crotch of my character, lol. Any suggestions/work around ideas would be appreciated!

End game ideas? [Question]

Hey so I’ve recently come back to NMS thanks to corvette update and did my first ever expedition via that- lots of fun! I also have a few ideas of how to continue

I wanna focus on finally fully doing up and upgrading my freighter and I now see you can work on upgrading individual buildings within settlements (was that always a thing?)

I also recently got an autophage settlement but yeah just curious on whether you guys had ideas or what you spend your time doing

What happened to that freighter battle? [Question]

Took a blackhole into a freighter battle with a sweet Venator I liked it and made the decision to farm it till it spawned S class. The first encounter was a B-class so I left the system and came back, but no freighter battle?? I thought I knew what I was doing I'm not sure what happened?? There was another venator I tried to farm for 3 days before i gave up. Every time i left that system and came back I was in battle again.

The 'wanted level' for sentinels is a terrible game mechanic... change my mind... [Discussion]

I'm returning to the game for Voyagers after some years away. I think Sentinels are a bad game mechanic which basically punish you for playing the game.

They stand as a direct impediment from doing interesting and fun things in the game. I recognize that fighting the Sentinels is an interesting mechanic if that's what you're choosing to do. But because of the way Sentinels operate, fighting them becomes a necessary mechanic to do almost anything in the game.

Without the 'wanted level' mechanic, fighting them to make progress would be totally fine as a game mechanic (I'm not against some resistance to game progress!).

The "Wanted level" mechanic means that you can't really deal with them without entering into a massive difficult and long battle. You basically have to run away and hide if you just want to move forward. And running away and hiding take a decent amount of time and is not interesting gameplay.

Maybe I'm just salty because the 90% of the planets in the current expedition (so far in my gameplay) seem to have aggressive sentinels. I just wanna play all the wide aspects of the game. Not mostly play a wave-based shooter and/or hide-and-seek game.

I'm fine for there to be high-resource planets with tougher enemies. I just think the 'wanted level' mechanic ends up simply punishing you for playing the game, and is poorly designed for everything great to do in NMS.

Change my mind. Or better yet, just agree with me.

Trapped in corvette as door became a wall [Question]

Okay this one’s really funny actually, I’ve managed to block myself into the corvette mid expedition, I was doing some editing on the interior and while placing a storage unit I accidentally placed it down over the door between two habitation modules. For some reason it placed in the one I’m not in, causing the one I’m in to become a solid wall. This means I can’t delete the storage unit to get out as all I can see is titan class unit wall. I have no chairs. Does anyone have any suggestions at all for how I escape because it auto saved while building so I can’t reload

The Portable Refinery trick ruined the game for me. [Question]

I would be completely obsessed with this game but after knowing I can have an infinite amount of anything I want, it soured my desire to continue. Has anyone else experienced this?

Warfare system. [Fan Work]

Imagine how cool it would be if there was different pirate factions and you could engage them in proper battles to push them out of systems. Eventually they would have to come back. I just want bigger player fleets and a way to actually have fleet on fleet combat that isn't getting sentinels ships to spawn close to my dreadnaught or getting lucky with jumping into a pirate system. Warfare would make my galactic federation that hates pirates role-playing way more fun lol. (Also make it so I can populated bases like settlements plz) i know how hard this would be but im just throwing out a cool idea.

Settlement construction inside a hill [Question]

I've sent a Zendesk report, but thought I'd see if anyone has any ideas on recovering from this.

The construction terminal is buried too deep, so I can't get close enough to it to operate it. So settlement progress is totally blocked.

Any magic incantations I can try? Turn round thrice widddershins while calling Sean Murray's name?

I suspect the only way forward is to abandon this settlement (just reached S class) and start another one. :(

Second pic shows true scale, where you can see the size of my Nautilus compared to it. There were smaller specimens in the shallow waters but it was found on a "Marine Planet" in the "Kamino" star system near the Isdoraijung core jump-in point. Deepest ocean I have encountered by far, I was able to find my way down to 900u and could probably have kept going, the caves were vast and led into even deeper, darker places. Nice to see a truly deep ocean. There is only 4 fauna and none are hostile so ocean explorers rejoice, seems like a perfect little water paradise.

New Player 50 Hour Review [Suggestion]

After seeing a lot of hype about the recent update, I decided to dive into NMS for the first time.

Most games I play are grand strategy or RPG, so this is something a big new for me.

The TLDR is that I'm having a great time, but there's definitely room for improvement.

The Things I Like Most: The seamless exploration The diversity of systems and planets The ship designs and how they feel flying them Pretty deep crafting systems Lots of content variation, though some of it is wearing thin Doesn't have hundreds of $$ of DLC (looking at you Paradox).

The Things I Think Are Adequate: The "quests." More depth here would be nice, but I was positively surprised at the amount of content here. I didn't get invested in the story, but without spoiling anything, the universe fits the narrative, which I thought was cool. The customization system. While there are some interesting decisions revolving around maximizing slots, working around supercharged slots, more real choices and tradeoffs would be nice. Game Mechanics Complexity - This game wasn't as much of a PITA to learn as a lot of games, but still requires a lot of looking stuff up. Factions - It's a simple system, but gets the job done. Base Building - Lots of options and a workable system, but not much excitement

Things That Frustrate Me: The worst thing about this game is all the clicking. I sometimes think of it as a carpal-tunnel generator. Any interaction with an NPC requires multiple clicks. Press long E to get a convo started. Click at least twice to speed up the slow dialog reveal (why isn't there an option to make it appear instantly). Click again to make a choice. Then, most of the time, you're kicked out of the dialog, so if you have more things to do with that NPC (like vendors), you have to start over and click through the same dialog again...and again. I had a stack of about 20 or 30 Gek Relics, and I had to go...

Hero Lighting (a short essay) - I mean there's nothing wrong with the Sam Fisher look. [Suggestion]

The problem with Hero Lighting which was introduced with the Voyagers update is that it may look pretty in screenshots, but while you're playing and moving around, you'll start to realize that no matter where you go or direction you turn, those same 3 or so white lights will still be there following you around, turning with you, moving with you no matter what angle you view yourself from. Enbrightening you from the left and from the right. You cannot escape them. They can't be outrun. After a while you start to crave the hundreds of varied looks your hero used to have as you passed through different biomes and watched your beloved avatar get bathed by the glow of colored bioluminescent flora shining on your suit in the deep sea. Or beheld the glow of your starship thrusters casting orange on the front of your armor at night while the moon painted you a deep blue from behind. Though you try to convince yourself, "it's for practicality so I can see my avatar in the dark!", your subconscious will betray you saying, "This is a beautifully illuminated world, filled with a medley of colored lights of varying strengths. Why am I reflecting white from the left... and from the right!?"

And quite frankly if I'm in a derelict freighter, hugged on all sides by dark walls, with no heating unit in sight, I don't want to glow like a Christmas ball wondering where all those glints and shimmers are reflecting from. I'll take the Sam Fisher look over the Christmas ball any day, even if all I see at night are my suits indicator lights and the rays of my torch illuminating my path. As long as every light is accounted for, my immersion will not be broken.

If anyone of you who has read up to this point shares even a miniscule portion of my sentiment, please use the official Hello Games suggestion form and ask for Hero Lighting to have a...

[Help] Found my perfect planet, left for 5 minutes, and now I'm lost in space. How do I get back? [Question]

Hey everyone,

So, I did it. After countless hours, I found the one. A perfect paradise planet I christened "Unpoppable." Lush world, chill sentinels, the whole nine yards. I was ready to move in for good.

Like a good little interloper, I followed the sacred rulebook: flew up to the system's space station (Zihbyigoz), hopped out of my ship to save it to my teleporter list, and then zipped back to my main base to grab supplies for my epic new home.

Except... Atlas has a cruel sense of humor.

The Zihbyigoz station has completely vanished from my teleporter list. Poof. Gone. It's not there.

My Discoveries tab is now taunting me, proving the planet is real (see screenshots). I've set a waypoint, but the galactic map shows a travel plan so long I think I'll need to pack a lunch for the next three years to get there. My current location is a galaxy-sized "so close, yet so far" away.

So, my fellow travelers, am I doomed to an epic, mind-numbing voyage across the stars, one warp jump at a time? Or is there some cosmic cheat code I'm missing to get back to my lost paradise?

I'm in Euclid. Any advice before my ship's warranty expires mid-trip would be greatly appreciated!

Mr. Murray, we need space bars. Not the keyboard kind. And shipyards. [Suggestion]

I am having a hard time seeing what I’m doing on the space station, trying to build corvettes, because it’s dark in there and the corvette colors are pretty dark too.

So I got to thinking. How about adding orbital shipyards as a location in systems that aren’t claimed by anyone, or just in, say, red star systems. No galactic trade terminals, no mission agents or guilds, or upgrade vendors.

Just corvette landing pads—outside, where it’s bright—and construction terminals. Include the terminals where you can scrap starships and/or custom create them, or just to repaint them (wish list item for us weirdos who enjoy hunting ships and just want to repaint).

Nearby, have a diner where you can mass sell your crafted foods, purchase or sell raw ingredients, or maybe get food related mini-missions from the chef.

And next to that, a bar! We sort of had little ones on space stations before they were updated, and I miss the aesthetic. But now they can have function by expanding the food crafting to include drinks using existing ingredients—Fireberry Martinis, or Grahberry coffee, or Rootjuice whiskey, whatever, with the same buy/sell thing with the bartender as you would with the diner’s chef.

And since the shipyards aren’t owned by any faction/race, populate it with a random assortment of Tethys, Ariadne, Cronus, etc’s species, to give it all a SW cantina vibe.

OK, I’ll shut up now, I’m just back in yet another round of being obsessed with NMS and thinking too much while at work.

Also, pretty please, put a spotlight in the space station so I can see what I’m doing.

Question About Saves - Specifically Before using the Emergency Scanner [Question]

I've been away from NMS for a long long time so forgive me if this has been discussed....

I'm going through the Corvette Expedition and am at the task to finish searching a derelict freighter "Shipwreck" I believe. I've done this twice now and suffered from glitches where the freighter disappears or I fall though. I have one last Emergency Signal Scanner, and no money since I spent it on this last scanner.

Is there a way for me to Save my game before using the scanner so that if I glitch again I can reload to that point? Or am I at the mercy of the gods here? I have a save device on my ship but I read the game saves automatically when you exit the ship... is this true or can I use I device to save before using the scanner??

Any advice?

I know it was the one with the question marker on it but it says the same thing. Not only that, since it happened the sky has been bugging out and I can’t change my quest to anything else so…. Yeah I’m screwed. I’ve tried restarting the game. Reloading several different ways, leaving the planet. Leaving the system. Starting a new settlement. Nothin. Any advice?

Comparing some of the Legacy buildings to the newer ones: Thoughts [Discussion]

Here is a comparison of the new parts to the Legacy parts.(left legacy, right new) Personally I liked a lot of the metal pieces from Legacy especially since the new Metal parts don't take color very well. In the first image you have your Newer parts on the left and the legacy on the right. the last few images really shows the color issues as well why not just have more color customization.

Maybe a hue editor or at the very least selections of each part group for a single color as well as the basic options (with all groups of color options available)

Some additions to Fishin' [Suggestion]

Hello, I got back into the game recently with the new Voyagers update, and been fishing a lot. I have three suggestions of things I either want added or changed for fishing,

The Exo Skiff Cold Storage should be able to go up to 60 slots instead of the regular 10. I remember seeing that you could increase the amount of slots in the fishing Expedition, however since it has been long since the expedition ended, it is impossible for a normal player to access these upgrades. A way for regular players to upgrade, even if it is just a purchase with nanites or quicksilver would be greatly appreciated.

I would love to be able to create a base underwater with a moon pool, and be able to fish in the depths of the ocean. This is inspired by the Submarine in Stardew, but I feel it would give another use to underwater bases.

This is more of a personal thing, but I'd love an upgrade to the fishing rig to allow you to cast further, something like a fly fishing extension. This wouldn't really have any practical effect other than maybe a fish or two that can only be caught at long distance, but at the same time I want to send my bobber into the horizon.

No mater what, it is amazing how NMS has changed over the years, and I love everything that has been done with it. Keep up the good work Hello Games!

The Sea of Steve's [Information]

A few years ago while I (56) playing the game with my daughter (now 31) We were bouncing around in a new star system our first planet of the system. We like so many rename our discoveries.

So I turn to her and ask what to name a 6 legged dog predator on this paradise world. She looks over it's green and purple and really wants to eat me but I am backing away faster than it can get me. She says call it Steve, cause Steve is less scary of a name. Like the movie Over the Hedge when Hammie is naming the hedge barring them from the newly build neighborhood.

Few minutes later I have a huge tree I need to name and again turn to her. She says "OH that is just another Steve.

Long story shortened. I now name everything, every system, planet, poi, fauna, flora and mineral Steve.

You can be in Steve, on Steve, next to Steve while Steve is eating Steve.

Entire sections of Euclid, and various galaxies have entire swaths of Steve. Even got lucky a few times and some of the weekend missions have had Steves. Confessed to a few of my buddies who also play and now they are spreading the Cult of Steve.

Let us know if there is something funny you do that is similar in this vast game.

In my confusion, I already saved over when I bought the other ship.

I am... absolutely heartbroken. I had modified it, customized it and gotten all the storage and everything... and now it's just gone.

Where do we get the fuel cell part for Corvettes? [Question]

I’ve noticed a lot of corvette builds using a fuel cell, but in opening probably hundreds of the salvageable Corvette parts and trading for other parts I’ve noticed the fuel cell has never dropped nor can it be traded for.

There are also other parts that are the same. Seem to never drop and aren’t acquirable through trading.

Are they only acquired through some special means or something?

Is my game glitched? [Question]

Hey all, I just got to the second galaxy. I want to confirm it happened properly because it seemed glitchy the way it happened. I'm gonna spoiler the following for people who aren't that far:

Basically, I got the mission to go to Atlas because something was happening in 16 minutes. The data sequence proceeded as I attempted to make my way there, but I was nowhere near the center when it forcibly teleported me to Atlas for it to ask me if I wanted to reset the galaxy. I said no, not yet, and was returned to where I was, and the countdown was gone. After some time, I wanted to continue the story, and I was under the impression I had to return to the center to continue. But when I warped from the closest star to the center of the galaxy, it just took me to the second galaxy right away. At first everything seemed normal, but then after my suit initialization process, I seemed to get Atlas teleported (with the special sound and animation colors) but then immediately ended up back at the planet I was on. I didn't get any new missions, and in fact other than my equipment being damaged and me being in another galaxy, nothing seems different. So my question is:

Is this what's supposed to happen? Is my file damaged in some way now? How do I progress the story? Or is there no more story?

New char, The freighters I encounter aren’t free [Question]

Hi, I started a new game, haven’t played for a long while and by now I had 2 freighters spawn into where I was in space but both times when going inside it wants me to buy them.

I thought the first freighter you get on and save is free? Or are these encounters separate from the ones you have when you get to keep the freighter for free ?

Stupid questions [Question]

When I am given quests in NMS do I have to interact with what triggered it to complete it? For example. They want me to do stuff at my base, can I wait and build a second base to continue the quest there, and if so do I have to deconstruct my first base beforehand?

They want me to run a settlement, I helped one but I don't want to do that particular settlement. Can I build a new one later to continue the quest there instead?

I think you can see where I'm going with this.

PSVR2 players (base PS5), does the VR patch in 6.05 noticably change anything? [Question]

I'm just asking because I might play, honestly I'm just lazy and the only way to motivate myself to put on the thing would be a novelty, I think you understand

They mentioned fixing a visual issue around foliage, is that the weird flicker around trees and stuff? Because if so that would be huge for me. Maybe some of your already know. Thank you for reporting soldiers!

Stuck on autophage quest :( [Bug]

I’m trying to do the autophage quest so I can play with my friends and go to purple systems, but for some reason I’m stuck in this endless loop. It says I have to go to one system, I go there, and then it says I have to go back to the system I came from, I go there, and then it’s endless. I can’t get to where I need to go! I’ve reloaded the saves, restarted the game, even reinstalled the game. Nothing has worked. I’m stuck, and I fear I’ll never be able to find purple systems :(

I think I done goofed :( [Question]

Last night I was grinding, trying to unlock purple star systems. I am on In Stellar Multitudes, the one where you backdoor the Atlas. I had a bit too much nipnip and left the Atlas after “building” a star (where you choose “horror” or “storm” and stuff). So basically the mission is telling me to interact with the Atlas but I lost the original atlas I “built” the star with and have no clue where it is. The mission is not letting me restart with nearby structures and I’m scared I bugged my mission out. Does anyone know a fix or am I going to have to save edit and tell the game I’ve done this mission? Please please please help I’ve been grinding this mission for a week now and don’t want to start a new save file to unlock purple stars! Thanks travelers!

Solar Sailer Corvette Build Guide (Feel free to share your own ships and tips!) [Ship Builds]

Ahoy Spacers! After completing and sharing my first Solar Sailer (image 1) I received a lot of questions about its construction. Knowing that there are many talented shipwrights out there I wanted to provide a place where I could cover the basics of how I built my ship and also provide a space where others can share their Solar Sailers and any tips or tricks used in their construction.

Unlike a lot of corvette designs, most of the work for a Solar Sailer is actually done outside the Corvette Build Mode, so when building the hull of a Solar Sailer keep in mind where you may want sails, masts, and what walkable spaces you want. After the main body of the ship is done you'll build the ship in the station and do the rest of the work on foot in the player's build mode (like what you use to build bases).

  1. Build Materials
    Many Solar Sailers you'll see will utilize Bubble Ducts for masts and various Sail pieces (image 2a) which are all available at the Quicksilver merchant on the Anomaly (images 2b & 2c). Additionally, you may utilize other parts like Canvas Awnings for sails, and Hanging Lamps (image 2d) if you really want to get detailed and create rigging with the lamps. Once purchased, all these materials are available in the player's build menu (not the Corvette construction mode at stations) under the Flag decoration tab.

  2. Scaffold Materials
    Many Furniture pieces can be used as scaffolding, but three highly effective parts for making Solar Sailors are Rugs, the Worktop, and the Flat Panel (image 3). The Rug and Flat Panel are especially effective as they can be placed on non-horizontal surfaces. Another factor which makes the Rug useful is the underside (which would sit on the floor) is see-through, so allows you to accurately align parts which need to be rotated a specific way (more on that later).

Otomis Colosseum [Screenshot]

Otomis Colosseum Located on Planet Leybrius III, Gakita-Idcot System, Euclid Galaxy. Built by the ruthless First Spawn Emperor Otomis, this ancient amphitheater was used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles including animal hunts, chariot races, Diplo battles, executions, re-enactments of famous battles, and dramas based on First Spawn mythology. The building ceased to be used for entertainment for unknown reasons. It is now a tourist destination. While you are visiting be sure to stop at the nearby Budac Oasis. We hope your enjoy visit. Please leave any communication stations at the Portal. Feel free to say where you are from.

The iron vulture and trading [Question]

I've heard that the iron vulture is only available through expedition or other players, what do people normally trade for stuff like older ship parts and such? I haven't interacted with other players much so I'm curious as to what people usually trade with / and what would be considered a fair trade for ship parts

Custom ship painting [Discussion]

For the longest time Ive always wished you could custom paint your ships, seeing that you can build ships now, and choose the colors, this adds a little more freedom to color choices, but I’d really love to see a 360, 3d model viewer where you can paint the entire ship how you want, using a color wheel and brush, it’d make ships so much more unique and personalized, what are your opinions on this ? Do you feel the same ?

Pet’s home origin [Suggestion]

I wish there was an easy way to track where pets came from, in case we want to go back and get more of a specific type, or just create an egg. Ideally, there would be a route back. But at the least, maybe the information screen about an adopted pet could list their home planet.

The first traveller quest line is a GLITCH FEST! [Question]

This is like the 7th bug I’ve run into in maybe 4 missions in this stupid Artemis quest line.

I’ve been sent to a crashed freighter I’ve never been to before to gather a log encryption key and after searching every single cargo pod there’s nothing but trash and goo in them. Now what??

Galaxy map no longer showing gas giants? [Question]

It used to show as gas giant in the description text when selecting them in the galaxy map. None show up any more. All my filters are the same as ever, so nothing is different there.

Did gas giants vanish or what’s happening if they didn’t?

Tips for Settlements [Question]

Recently came back to the game and I find that I enjoy managing my settlement more than anything else. Of course I like the exploration side of things and base/ship building too, I just always end up back at my settlement as much as I’m needed there.

Does anyone have any tips that can enhance this aspect of the game for me?

For example, can I have multiple settlements per system, is there a specific resource I should be getting them to produce. Do I need to worry about sentinels invading or can I leave my AI enabled Minotaur behind to defend the settlement.

I’m happy to figure this all out by myself but I know this community is great at pointing people in the right direction for a more enjoyable experience

my save has been deleted somehow? [Bug]

so i just logged on today (19th of september) and all the progress and stuff i had done from around the start of the corvett update to the 3rd of September has been completely deleted i dont know how or why but ive looked in my files and i cant find the save anywhere. so all that effort has just been for nothing as i had put about 15 hours in and built 2 corvetts and gotten a bunch of other progress done. im ngl if i cant get this save back somehow i think that might be it for this game.

Salvage Containers? [Question]

I'm new to the game and know that searching for salvage containers is a good source of corvette parts and money, however I'm a little confused and looking to clear something up.

So far, no matter what planet I go to, I can find salvage containers but they only have two protective casings and the center core doesnt look at all like what I see in youtube videos and on the wiki. It also apparently is supposed to spawn some kind of item with a description saying its xxx years old but that has never happened for me. I only ever receive a random assortment of corvette parts.

Is there something about salvage containers Im not understanding or is what Im looking for just rare?

I've had to stop using the Corvette- anyone have any fixes? [Bug]

Hey everyone,

I’m on the latest update (double-checked), and I’ve run into a couple of issues with my corvette that I haven’t been able to solve. I figured I’d share here in case others have seen the same thing or found workarounds.

The main problem: Whenever I use a portal to travel to a player base, my corvette spawns inside the base. That usually traps me, and I can’t get out, summon it elsewhere, or switch ships.

I tried working around it by switching ships before using the portal, then switching back afterward. I quickly noticed a new problem: every time I switch away from the corvette and return, its tech layout scrambles. This completely ruins adjacency bonuses, which makes a huge difference for maneuverability. Having the ship suddenly handle like the Titanic is a real game-changer (not in a good way). I’ve rebuilt the layout over a dozen times with no success in getting it to stick.

I don’t mind bugs, I’ve played through plenty of them in my 700+ hours, and even found funny little "fixes" (like walking backwards into the thunderbird cockpit while looking down, sitting in the pilot seat and then getting back up to restore ambassador hab seams). But with these two issues happening together, the corvette becomes literally unusable for me.

My hope:

Ideally, the tech layout would stay locked where you put it. Perhaps there's a sequence of actions that prevents it from getting scrambled, or certain actions to avoid?

And when using a portal, the corvette should either spawn hovering above a landing pad (say ~200u), or not spawn at all so we can just summon it where we want.

Even with this, I want to say I still absolutely love the game. It’s one of my all-time favorites, and I will continue to have hundreds of hours of more fun with it, I'm certain. This is just the first time I’ve hit a bug that actually...

VR findings. [Information]

I am just going to post my findings and everything I have learned so far from researching that helped make my vr experience fun, not just playable.

Preface: I play on a laptop with Ryzen 7 5800H 16gb Ram and a 3070. Originally was using a Quest 1 since I found it for real cheap last year but could never crank settings on it. In fact I had to turn down even steam vr settings and vd didn't help much at all. Recently upgraded to the quest 2 and I have had much better performance.

My current settings are essentially: Planet Quality and Tessellation set to High. Had them on ultra but didn't see much of a visual difference, things got laggy instead. These are the main settings that you don't want to crank down as they ruin the experience.

Textures, Volumetric Effects and Post Processing are Enhanced.

Everything else is low and gtao is off.

Now for the real performance gains that I found:

DO NOT USE DLSS. Use Fidelity FX because dlss uses a lot more vram then fdfx in the same settings. I read it here somewhere and yeah its true.

Now on the vd side, I have fps set to 120 in both streaming and advanced tabs which will turn sd super sampling off and vr quality is on high. Sounds counterintuitive but in my case doing this made the game smoother contrary to what you might think would happen.

To me this sounds like a bottleneck issue as going to the lowest fps, 60, with sd upscaling on in the settings creates more lag so clearly my cpu gets bottlenecked when fps is set so low.

The whole changing the desktop resolution did nothing for me, neither did resizing the nms window. I will try turning HAGS on and see if anything improves as I have it off currently.

Oh and steam res is set to 100%. I tried setting vd quality to medium and upscaling using steam but it is worse than just using high quality setting.

In conclusion, try to find out how the game behaves on your...
