Quick Nom Nom ship editing question for the experts [Question]

It's been a VERY long time since I used it, and all I'd like to do is change the appearance of my ship. I have an S class yellow gumball that I've spent a lot of time expanding (legitimately), but I hate the way it looks. I'd like to keep everything exactly the way it is in terms of slots etc, but just change the ship model to one of the better looking fighters. Is that possible, or would changing it completely rearrange everything?

I know we can stumble upon an interesting planet while galaxy hopping, but can we planet hunt? [Question]

https://preview.redd.it/pl3dlokoo8yf1.png?width=347&format=png&auto=webp&s=5d9af3080595be31ffff18d2653b6dcd383a7029

I "get it", we have star gates that allows us to input coordinates with the glyph system. That teleports us to another planet, which changes the XYZ location of our player within the galaxy.

... but that's still stumbling into something.

Then we have the star classification system, which tells us what type of planet it could be.

GREAT! Now we are on to something!

If I want to hunt for a water world with high tides I'm looking for something like this:

... but still, we are stumbling into it.

We need to go into galaxy mode and then we need to scan the firmament for planets:

... but there is no rhyme or reason to the star classification system. I can't follow it up/down in alphabetical order until I reach what I'm hunting for.

... am I missing something?

... I don't want to simply put the coordinates to a known planet, I want to find one.

... and it seems that these types of planets are exceptionally rare because I've been hunting for it for a couple of days now.

A SHARING OF OPINIONS AND GAMEPLAY STYLE [Discussion]

Good morning, explorers of the Anomaly! How do you manage your ships?
We have three main types, right? The ones we can use for “Navigation”:
1 - Regular Ships
2 - Corvette
3 - Freighter

How do you use them in roleplay? For example, I like to imagine each one serving a specific purpose, like this: Regular ships = one for farming, one for combat, and one for interplanetary exploration within the same system, chosen from the freighter’s hangar. Corvettes = a kind of perimeter cruiser, which I use to visit nearby systems where my freighter is stationed — a sort of mobile mini outpost. Freighter = my operational center, where I define my goals, systematically choosing which systems to travel to; it always follows me to provide support and security.

Am I overthinking it by playing this way?

Other players bases [Question]

What is the point in sharing coordinates for nice planets if Noone but the finder can do anything there? And why do other players bases even show up in my game, I play solo. This honestly is kind of demotivating

Question to the group [Question]

Would you consider a screenshot that showed the time 16:16 as relevant to the game No Man's Sky?

Stuck [Question]

I've completed almost the entire third stage of the expedition, except for one milestone where I have to kill some creatures. It says they're on contaminated planets, but I can't find any. I've been flying from system to system, and I can't find anything. Anybody can help?

An offhand quote from Polo that really resonated with me [Discussion]

When progressing through the Artemis missions, during one of my stops at the Nexus, Polo the Specialist said something along the lines of “I will wait my whole life to find out who I am.”

As someone who’s pretty self-critical and trying to improve who I am as a person, this was a poignant comment on growth and change that really hit home for me and made me feel hopeful for life. Just wanted to share.

Expedition Bugs... Coincident in Time and Space [Bug]

How many of you have been playing the latest Breach expedition and found that other players' corvettes are superimposed over yours?

Had two weird physics incidents yesterday. exploring a derelict freighter. Went to exit my freighter and suddenly there's a huge "fuel rod" assembly in my hab. I couldn't get around it to exit my freighter. Had to take off, fly around, hover and then spacedive down to the entry to the freighter. Seems that another player had parked their ship right over my ship - same place, same time. parked my corvette in an abandoned station and climbed out of the pilot's chair. Instead of exiting the game, I just left my game running and I (IRL) went to make some dinner. I came back and saw my traveler suddenly swept out into space inside of a strange (not my) corvette. I was now trapped on this mysterious ship, unable to open the hatches or otherwise exit this other person's ship. No sign of the other player - it was just me trapped in a strange hab module that was very different from my ship.

This isn't even a complaint about how parts of my ship vanish or go invisible when there are other players nearby. This "sticky" physics overlay is really annoying. Wish they had sorted this out better before launching the Breach expedition.

#

Can someone explain this to me?? (Expedition problem) [Question]

So i got to the exploring corvette wreckage part, and it says to search trough the wreckage. But all i can do is break the two reactors for couple of corvette parts???? I already wasted so much resources trying to find something, but nothing. Please tell me the hell am i supposed to do with this 😭

I've updated my Milano with new parts and techniques. What do you guys think? [Ship Builds Video]

Hello, fellow travelers. Weeks ago, I designed my first Milano build, but by the time I had no idea about any advanced techniques like offsetting or free placement. I've been working on an improved version since, and now it's finally finished. It's enhanced in every aspect: Angled and more accurate wings Better thrusters position Better roof Slightly longer and more accurate body Unobstructed view from the back window 45deg rotated nose More accurate shapes compared to the movie Almost perfect scale More external detailing and lights Better decals More internal space Smoother lines overall Amazing 3rd person view

No mods were used to build the ship, so it's completely console friendly.

What do you guys think about the new version?

I also made a quick 5-minute tribute video to the Milano, showcasing the build, if you guys are interested. You can check it out here.

Happy travels to all!

It’s been a long long time since I last played nms. Coming back to it and I’m jumping head first into permadeath 🤣🤣 [Discussion]

I got the special edition when the game came out originally, loved it despite the vast majority not particularly pleased.

I got the platinum trophy back on the ps4 and moved onwards to other games. The ps5 version arrived and it was a free upgrade so naturally i booted up nms again on the ps5 this time. Got the platinum to pop again and disappeared.

Now I have the portal and was looking for a chill game to play while I am on my lunch breaks at work and this game came to mind.

So here I am once again, here to enjoy the worlds, and find all the new stuff I’ve never encountered in the past. Along with getting the trophies from the dlc (I’m running the ps4 version because the ps5 trophies will auto pop soon as I get them on the ps4 version)

Decided to full send with a permadeath save. So far so good I think that it’s easier for me as an old returning player to survive

BUT… (I think I was here for the update that brought the land vehicles that’s all I remember) there is so much that has changed. Is there anything I should know?

I don't like that alot of encounters require you to "activate" it or warp to a new system . It takes the whole purpose of it being an "Encounter" Solution : Make an update that changes that and call it "Encounters" [Discussion]

For those who don't know : there are a decent amount of cool encounters in the game that require you to activate it in your inventory slot to make it appear in your game.

Emergency Broadcast Receiver - Allows you to encounter derelicts much quicker while in Pulse

Vile Grub - Spawns a Brood Mother and act as a boss fight

Vigilant Stone - Spawns 2 small living stone Sentinels, or 1 Mech Sized Stone Sentinel

Pirate Dreadnoughts - Only spawn as a battle when warping to a system with a ship, will go away reloading, and will not appear if warped in a freighter

Deepwater Guardian (Jellyfish Boss fight) - Must catch the rare Child of Aquarius Fish and release it back into water to trigger boss fight

Anomaly Detector - Allows you to run into more rare anomalies while in pulse, and is the only way to run into the new Ship wrecks and Space whale frigates in the normal game

See? These are cool encounters, but it SUCKS that we have to put if an unnecessary amount of effort to run into these, instead of running into them while we are just exploring.

Solution?

  • Provide a system where we randomly get S.O.S. signals that allow us to begin a miniquest that involves these encounters

  • ALL freighter (Dreadnoughts too) encounters should have a chance to warp in and attack , instead of needing to warp in and hope for a chance to encounter them.

  • Introduce Brood Lairs/Nest that we can randomly find, which would have a brood queen that we can fight (A bug Version of a Sentinel Nest)

  • Have Polished Stone Sentinels be the MAIN enforcement units of Polished Stone planets, while others require you to find a vigilant stone.

  • Allow the Deepwater Guardian to Randomly appear...

Need some Isdoraijung neighbors [Screenshot]

I'm a new player, been a month playing this game. My most favorite thing is visiting other bases, unfortunately most are based in Euclid or Eissentam. So if there's any Isdoraijung bases anyone would like to show, I'd love to visit! Also it took me 50 hours to build this base, please come and visit, the planet has the most breathtaking sunset! 😁😁

I bought NMS and it's been confusing and overwhelming [Question]

I'm new to the game. I bought the Switch 2 version. But at the start the game has been very confusing and overwhelming for me. I have to fix the scanner and install the visor yet I can't find the resource to build the visor.

I wanted to enjoy this game. Will it still be fun if I watch all the YouTube tutorials and actually follow them bits by bits?

Or do you have any recommendations?

Xbox Multiplayer Desync [Question]

When you can't summon your ship to land on the water [Information Video]

Sometimes, my ship will land on the water when I call it. Other times it "Cannot Land Here" even though it has aqua-jets. It somehow does not register the requested landing point. This may be related to sea state.

A quick trick to get it to land in those latter cases:

  • In your build menu, select the portable refiner, go to free placement, and build one at the surface.
  • Select Summon your ship and target the very top of the refiner.
  • This seems to give the game the needed landing target and allows the ship to land.

First time playing and also permadeath. Couple Questions. [Question]

First of all Im sorry if my questions are very basic. I finally convinced myself to play No Mans Sky and Im hooked. At the beginning I put away the game because I found controller interface very tiresome in menus like inventory. Keyboard/Mouse so much better for me. I play blindly on permadeath. I know its not wise to play that way but the thrill of taking risks and exploring the unknown is just fun for me.

Questions.

There are couple of ship symbols when Im flying basic ship. I have been fighting with some pirates and the white border which is probably hull strength or shield was almost 0%. The question is - Would I die if it hits 0% or maybe these ship symbols will replenish my shield(if it is shield). The same thing I noticed when Im on the foot, I have couple health symbols.

If you could give me subtle direction without big spoilers where I can unlock additional slots for Exosystem modules. I found maps that guide me to capsules where I can unlock inventory slots. I also found on stations place to buy multi-tool module slots. On three stations(I didnt explore more than 3) I also could upgrade exosystem but I dont remember if it was inventory or module slots. I have an access to anomaly station already.

The game is great, the main quest asked me to go to insanely hostile planet where "ancients" are very aggressive + there were some flying. I landed on one spot and in the same time there was also pirate attack. The adrenaline rush was insane. The other planet had big worm coming from underground - I shit my pants when I saw it. Absolute cinema and Im really addicted to the game.

My corvette goes twice as fast as my other ships based on the speedometer (u/second), but it doesn’t travel as fast in real world time. Why? [Question]

I got my corvette up to 1600 u/s but when I time it against my other ships, it’s actually slower. It also just feels much slower when you fly it on a planet, when travelling it space it matches my fastest ship. Does each ship type have a different measurement for speed? Seems like a waste to waste good upgrades on

New To Game: Two Questions. [Question]

First, I'm probably 15-ish hours in. I've done some farming, some exploring, Like 3 Artemis quests.

What should I know as I dive into the game?

Second, I'm seeing the Corvette posts here. I also know/understand the difference of modded, glitched, and standard in game found things.

So using in game stuff, how can I make a Corvette look better than a flying box with a cockpit, and an engine?

How would you all react to a decision similar to Amazon Gaming Studios? [Discussion]

I don't know how familiar this community is with what's happening with AGS, but a pretty damning announcement hit the New World Aeternum community the other day. In short, the dev team running it was shut down effectively putting an end to the game. While the servers are still active, no new content, no major updates. Just a holding pattern of basically maintenance mode until they pull the plug.

This announcement has been met with a mix of emotions from everyone. Many people immediately uninstalled in a fit of rage, some have been completely demoralized to play and don't see a point. But some see it as been given a terminal diagnosis and want to get every second they can to experience all the devs had intended.

I understand that NMS and Aeternum are completely different games and that brings completely different types of gamers together. My question for this community is, how would everyone react if given similar news from Hello Games that NMS will be shutting down due to XYZ reasons? Don't get me wrong, I'm not wishing this to happen by any means, but reading the vast reactions and reasoning on the New World subreddit just got me curious is all, so let's discuss.

Corvette build, no glitch, no mod. [Ship Builds]

Introducing Rumjaeger, totally vanilla, fully functional interior, built on Ps5.

I also wanted to get your thoughts on stats. I've not seen many discussions on stats and the possibilities. I know it's widely dependent on the the parts you use for build and upgrade modules.

I don't know if it's a glitch, but I started this after upgrading a basic component corvette to S class, and dumping all my upgrade modules in the tch slots. I started the true build without tracking if I retained all the slots and added more with the ship parts. I then half ass reorganized them for adjacency bonuses.

Can someone tell me if I did a smart thing or if it's just basic knowledge to the general public?

I have been creative in my own way [Ship Builds]

I saw lots of really stylish corvettes and met travelers who really liked mine, so I decided to share it with you. I started with the idea of just making a flying block, and then I ended up with this result. I don't really have any ideas for a name, so for now it's "DJ Space." It's a ship without mods; I just took advantage of being able to remove elements when possible with another corvette creation panel. I'm still modifying and enlarging this corvette, and here it is, a change from what we usually see! My friend code for travelers who would like to take a closer look! 8V1J-TYR1-M5SB4

Are ship seeds predetermined at stations? [Question]

Long story [slightly]short[er]

I'm trying to find a ship with that cockpit, to scrap for the component, and I've been hanging around in 3 star Vykeen stations, occasionally saving and reloading, but aside from the usual variations in engines and wings, it's always the same selection of 4 or 5 cockpits.

I'm wondering if I need to sit through 2 or 3 wakes, then move to a different system if it doesn't appear.

Thanks.

Hello, I completed the Breach-Expedition a few Days ago, claimed the new Corvette Parts from the Reward Vendor, but now I am a bit puzzled. How do you build more?

Derelict Freighter [Question]

Spawned right under a derelict. Got the side quest to land on it. I cannot find where to land at all?

Also, I flew away, and now i can't find the derelict again.

How do I find it again, and how do I land on it?

I realize it's not required, but I'm new and I want to see the space junk! Especially since the expedition is about salvaging, it'd be nice to see the old version to compare with the new stuff.

Last question, can I just start over? (On an existing save) I think it would be easier to respawn and not get lost.

Help with display name on Xbox [Question]

Hi! I am new and currently obsessed with the game, and I don't know why, but my display name being my gamertag bugs me, ESPECIALLY with titles. Enough so, that I intended to change it to not include a number in it. Xbox has that new thing like discord where you can have any name you want, they just assign you a number then hide it from view. Now, some games don't hide that number. So, any of those with a #6595 or something at the end of your gamertag, does that disappear for this game like it should? Or do you walk around as Balen#5739, The Bold? lol thanks yall

My expedition 20 corvettes [Ship Builds]

Jumping on the bandwagon with the corvettes and the atlas pieces. The moment I saw them I knew I'd be making a tie fighter. Also made one based on my ultimate sentinel ship which I never quite got.

The landing gear ruins the corvettes here, as you can't remove them. I've heard the glitch to do so is patched, so the last one will probably be replaced by a sentinel ship at some point.

Cannot Build New Corvette? [Bug]

Ive seen a couple of similar posts from back when Voyagers first dropped, but I have not seen a solution that fits my problem.

I am NOT stuck in "free placement" from regular build menu and have validated several times. I am NOT at my build limit. I DO have free ship spots available in my 12 active spots. I HAVE restarted game many times, tried cross save on PS4 (currently on PS5) I HAVE reset database on console. I DID try to build a corvette on a different save and it DOES work. I WILL let me edit a previously built corvette.

Problem is, as video shows, all landing gear options appear red while trying to build, so i cannot build a new corvette.

I dont wanna uninstall/reinstall as new corvette builds work fine on other saves so I dont think thats the issue.

Anyone have a fix that isn't what ive tried already?

Scrapped together a corvette out of whatever parts I could find. Behold, The Jankship [Ship Builds]

Not as symmetrical as it could be due to not having enough of the same parts but IMO it adds some character.

I've named it "The Jankship" since it really is just cobbled together.

I played the game a little bit during launch but it wasn't very good. I heard the game was pretty good now and them adding ship building was enough to get me to revisit it. I started with the expedition which was fun as it got me into the corvette right away. I didn't realize how much of the intended progression I skipped by doing it though, that atlantid drive is no joke!

Currently hunting for nanites to upgrade the ship class further. At the moment I only managed to get it to B class I'd like to at least get it to A class it's just very expensive.

Hopefully everyone else is having as much fun with the corvette's as I am. My hope is to get enough parts to functionally build a frigate at some point (and I'll mod out the build limit if I have to in order to achieve this.)

Staff Multi-Tool Color Choosing [Question]

I've easily spend like 12+ hours on fishing now, and am at 15/40 of legendary fish (some of which I have like 10 pieces of by now). I caught 5 Children of Aquarus just trying to get a Megalodon (which I ultimately didn't catch). Are there any ways of making this a bit less exhausting? For instance, I read that you can appearently catch a lot of the legendaries in deep water on Exotic planets, but I haven't tried that yet, so I don't know if this is true or not.

Crashed Ship only letting me Swap? Bug, or is 11 too many ships? [Question]

Ok so, I've not run into this problem before...

I found a new salvaged/crashed Interceptor that I want to keep, but its only letting me select "Swap and Abandon Current Ship" --which I don't want to do.

So how many Ships are we allowed to have, and what ships count towards that total?

I think I only have 11 so far, including 3 Corvettes...

Do our Freighters and Frigates count?

I recently added another 5 Frigates to my Freighter Fleet just last night...

I also recently completed Expedition 20; doing it from my Main Save... does the one Radiant Pillar from that, and the 1 Corvette we built for it... do those count? Did I somehow leave those two abandoned on the other side of the Galaxy when I finalized/completed the Expedition and returned to my main save? That doesnt really make sense to me... as I thought the Expeditions were on a seperate save or something like that...

Or is this one particular ship I'm trying to keep, just bugged ?

Can I still get a free PS5 upgrade? [Question]

Hey everyone,

Quite a while since I played NMS but I wanna get back into it. I just installed it again from a disc version of the PS4 game on my PS5. It spent ages updating to version 6.12.

Is this the PS5 version? I have seen people say you should get a pop up asking if I wanna upgrade but I can't see that. In the store I still can buy the game even with this installed. I was able to download my PS4 save file too.

Any help would be appreciated.

NMS got me into gaming again and gave me a reason to try an idea I had for while now [Community Content]

Hey fellow travellers, sharing sth different here Tl;Dr exists

After lurking in this subreddit for a while I finally decided to give it a try about 4 weeks ago. After 10y nms is the first game that feels exciting and is different in a weird but good way what resulted in over 60h of playtime. And it feels just like the beginning

Short context I am a visual artist with a thing for realtime generative stuff and have this idea of using a shitty but cheap projector to ctreate a immersive projection around the main TV/screen. Similar to Ambilight but more complex, controlled and reactive.

With nms I found a reason and spent a few days exploring different techniques using Touchdesigner and OBS (both free!!). I then decided to pack this up into a user friendly tool for everybody to free to use. It's ready soon

Updates will follow soon here on reddit and especially Instagram and I will link to some platform to host the project files an Tutorial on how to use this.

@lumalux_3dmapping

Tl;Dr NMS Imspired me to create an ambilight like tool based on projection using free software and I want to share the tool for free with all of you soon

Mods not working? [Question]

I just got back to the game after taking a week or two off, and now all my mods dont work. Is this happening to anyone else?

#

What degree of "enclosure" is needed for a base to protect from storms? [Question]

Expanding on the title:

I'm building a base on a world with frequent scalding rainstorms. Which is fine, I'm leaning into that.

It's a reasonably large structure, with an internal volume that is 4-5 standard wall heights, and a fully enclosed roof over the top. In some areas I am protected from heat damage during the storm, particularly at the edges where there's walkways, but I do take heat damage in some areas in the middle atrium area. I'm wondering how high a second internal floor might need to be to give full protection from storms.

I should add, the building is made with predominantly stone components, with some alloy and recycled wall panels. Not using prefabs.

Lore dump me with race info [Question]

Hello all. My first 120 hours on the game were kinda a mess. I got into the game for rare ship collecting. Which now that I can make my own, and I have all the rare ones, is fairly pointless. During this process I kinda cheated the game a lot and so I had progressed a lot without any real meaning.

I want to restart and play in a more sustainable immersion way. But I wasn't sure which race to choose. I was hoping someone could tell me a bit about each race so I know which race suits my playstyle!

I need ideas. [Ship Builds]

Please give me ideas for my turtel-series corvettes. I find them looking boring now, please share your creativity in the comments. I want both of these unique.

A little information: The black corvette is called the MK4. This one is focused on travelling with the hyper drive and being a mobile efficient base.

The golden corvette is called the K1. I created this one to hunt freighters and to raid them with lasers, works good but I got bored of the looks. It's quite agile.

Both of the corvettes are still C class ones.

No Man’s Sky freezes on white screen immediately on launch [Discussion]

Hi, guys i am new to this game and have been waiting a sale offer for quite some time to play this beautiful game and after finallly getting it i never thought instead of playing the game i'd have to spend two days trying to look for solution. I've been trying to get No Man’s Sky to run for two days and I can’t get past the first launch screen, it just stops at white screen, there is no "not responding" error.

What I’ve Tried So Far:

Verified game files through Steam

Deleted TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.MXML or changed data in it to lowest settings.

Disabled Steam Cloud sync for the game

Reinstalled the game

Tried running in windowed mode / lower resolution

Tried launching without fullscreen optimizations

Checked Vulkan layers in registry to ensure nothing incorrect was injected.

Performed multiple clean GPU driver installations (both Game Ready and Studio), including “Clean installation” and repeated attempts after DDU, same for the visual redist c++ version.

The game has never reached the main menu even once.

There is no error as to why its getting stuck. I have to restart the pc by pressing cpu button, even my cursor gets stuck.

If someone knows a solution to it, pls help a fellow space traveler.

Atlas Firefly [Ship Builds]

Been working on many iterations of a firefly for a while now. loved the new rounded pieces and with a little glitch building and no mods I finally got a firefly backside that I'm happy with even if I can't get the shape of the cockpit quite the way I like it. Decided to try a black one for fun and kinda dig it. The landing gear is the only other thing I'm not in love with butt when it's actually on the ground it looks great. Once I'm done tweaking it again, I'll build on the solar panels again like my previous iteration (4th screenshot). I'm still kind of partial to how I built the ring on the original.

New Player trying to prepare for Expedition 20 [Question]

Hi! I've started playing No Man's Sky about a week or so ago and I've been having a blast! I started playing as Expedition 20 released, but since I'm still getting the hang of the game, I initially planned to tackle it later, but I learnt, like today, that it was only available for another week before it would become unavailable.

The fear of missing out kinda overtook me and I started to absolutely rush the game to follow the various guides on how to prepare for the Expedition, and since I'm a bit of a completionist and really want the new corvette parts, I'm trying to be ready to complete all the milestones and whatnot.

However... I didn't expect the main quests to be as long as they are and fear that I may not have enough time to fully prepare. I'm now at The Purge and the Atlas Path in the story. I have most things that were needed in this guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1oekkrs/nms_breach_expedition_20_in_3_hours_full_guide/

What I am lacking is the nautilon platform, the polished stones, and the crystal sulphides. I believe I can unlock the nautilon through the Anomaly, but from what I've seen on other posts, it's better to unlock it through a secondary quest. Am I going to be missing out on anything if I simply purchase the blueprint at the Anomaly? As for the polished stones, I have no idea on how to efficiently find a planet where these stones are found. Same for the crystal sulphides. Do I need to unlock specific system types? I only unlocked the Red Systems so far.

Also, from what I've seen, we don't actually need to bring storm crystals and sea glass, unlike the guide initially stated, so these resources shouldn't cause a problem. Lastly, do you think I can pull this Expedition off and all the preparations in less than a week? I've never done expeditions, so I have literally zero idea as to what I'm getting into....

The search for a true undiscovered water planet continues [Screenshot]

I’ve been searching for a good water planet to build a new base and I thought by going through a few black holes and puddle jumping some planets I would be able to find somewhere nobody has been. I thought I found the perfect planet and as I was scoping out a good spot I noticed this crustacean type creature using a space helmet as a shell. It’s safe to say I’m not the first person here 😂

Suppositions on the world of Expedition 20 [Discussion]

Disclaimer: I've been thinking weird shit recently. If this gets weird... I can't really apologise.

So, the world of Expedition 20 leaves us with a grand mystery: what the hell happened to life? At first, there doesn't seem to be any sign of why the main three species aren't present anymore. Did the Sentinels finally go full nutty and wipe everyone out? I think the answer is a little deeper, and it hinges on the Third Rendezvous.

See, Third Rendezvous is fucked. It's infested by the biological horrors, more than any other planet I've seen. Not only does it have those big old tentacle boys, but even the geological forms look like eggs for more of the things. Whispering eggs are everywhere.

I'm thinking that maybe, the horrors started spreading more aggressively. Really aggressively. Maybe a hive gained the ability to spread through highly resilient spores that attached to starships or something. Either way, the Sentinels crapped themselves and started going nuts, shooting down any and every ship in a desperate attempt to spread the spores. Maybe they went after groundside populations too, or maybe the groundside folks were just starved out by the lack of space trade.

As for the Space Anomaly and its lack of population, I think it's possible that everybody there left. They saw what was happening in the wider universe and said "fuck this, this iteration is done for. There's a heck of a good universe next door, let's go". Only Nada was left, unable to leave for fear of another Convergence finding them, and shut down in despair of being alone once more.

But that's just a hypothesis, of course. A No Man's Sky hypothesis. Let me know your thoughts! Do you agree? Do you think I'm too crazy? Do you think I'm not crazy enough?

Dream Aerial Questions [Question]

Is it possible to obtain an S-Class living frigate when using the Dream Aerial?

I haven't added a living frigate to my fleet because I've only come across C-Class. I want my "guaranteed" living frigate to be worth it, so I don't mind doing the dream questions every time, if that means I can gey something better.

I understand that there is one frigate generated per system, but is the class locked in?

I know I could look up places to get one(?) but I've been enjoying being able to build my fleet etc off my finds. Any tips for finding a good living frigate would be appreciated.

New player - am I ready for Breach? [Question]

Greetings, travellers! I’ve had the game for a couple of weeks and am obsessed - I’ve quickly racked up just over 100hrs, which is a lot for me in a short time.

I’m so keen to do the new Breach Expedition and get those Atlas Corvette parts, but I don’t know if I’ll be really unprepared if I try to solo it. Or are the Expeditions pretty accessible and self-contained?

Without major spoilers, is there anything I should have, do, or know, before I embark on the Expedition? I want to get the most out of it that I can.

I’ve also barely touched the main story - will that make it harder for me to understand any of the lore I might encounter?

If this is relevant - I’ve got a system class Freighter with no real upgrades, Roamer and Minotaur Exocrafts, a basic Corvette with some storage containers, and recently built my first S-Class Fighter. And of course, a bunch of pretty typical mid-tier upgrades for my Exosuit and B-Class Multitool.

Any advice, pointers, encouragement, or warnings would be most appreciated!

Expedition #20 question. [Information]

Hello travelers,

I just completed the Expedition #20 (I haven't reclaimed the last badge to finish it) and I was wondering if there is something I must know, I'm pretty new to the game besides that I have already 80 hours :laugh:

For example, is there a specific Item that I should bring with me? I saw that in the same way you can bring items to the expedition, you can get some back and reply your actual expedition ship which I might do, but is there something special that I might be missing?

I will get with me the reactor to jump to the star systems it provides, but I'm not sure if it's used in the regular save.

Any help or suggestions?

Cool picture because why not.

Newb planning coop, should I check out expedition 20? [Question]

Hey guys, totally new to NMS here. Me and 3 other friends are planning to play coop and all of us except one haven't played the game before.

I see theres a expedition 20 mode when starting a new game, and it seems to be a time limited event.

I want us to experience the base game stuff and get a feel of the game first. But the time limit on expedition 20 is giving me FOMO.

Would that mode play similar to base game with tutorial and stuff thats better suited for newcomers? Or does it require some experience with the regular game first?

P.S. the 2 friends that are also new to NMS are the type to not latch on to a game if it doesn't capture their interest in the starting bits. XD i'm thinking if the regular game doesn't seem their thing, then maybe NMS aint exactly their type of game being a chill survival game (that's my impression). Atleast we can play few sessions of expedition 20 as a backup is what i though. Would love to hear your recommendations.

I tried going to 3rd person views and flew around A LOT but can't see it anywhere. I guessing it's part of the tutorial process so I don't want to jut leave it. Can any of you remember back far enough in your playthrough to tell me what I'm supposed to do here? Thanks!!

Corvette Landing Thruster Not Retracting, Intentional? [Discussion]

The basic Corvette landing thruster, the one that looks like a square box frame with a flat foot.

it used to extend and retract, a few updates ago it "glitched" and stopped; but now even with Breach and several updates later, it remains in this state.

Theory: could this be intentional?

Breach introduces a new Hydraulic Legs landing thruster; which happens to Look Nearly Identical to the old ones did when retracted

Maybe the old ones are meant to be basic and non-animated; while the new detailed model Hydraulic Legs are taking the place of retracting gear going forward.

Fauna desperately needs an update [Discussion]

You’d think with the variety of procedurally generated fauna they’d be able to push out procedurally generated animal sounds/calls. It can’t be hard to add more than 3?

Even with the variety of fauna in this game it gets repetitive as you run into the same deer with a different tail/horn on every other planet.

There’s also no incentive to look for fauna when players are given less than 30 available spaces for pets whilst the universe is infinite. Why would we continue looking for new pets knowing we’ll have to abandon a pet we like?

Yeah free updates and corvettes are great but the base game has stayed flawed for years because they don’t polish they just release and release.

Question: Played exclusively on Switch 1 for >50 hrs. Is it best to restart to benefit from Switch 2 upgrade? [Question]

Hi all,

I really enjoyed NMS on Switch. I wasn't following the story too much, more just liked getting the main components and then exploring and visiting planets and ships. Haven't played much since mid 2024.

With the Switch 2 upgrade, is it better to restart to benefit from the additional content. eg is it baked into the tutorial (and therefore I might miss how it works if I loaded up my old save file)

Many thanks! Looking forward to getting back into it!

Any advise?

Using Base Teleport with Corvette sucks. The game needs a designated Corvette landing spot for bases, and better detection of the base structures to avoid clipping like this. [Bug]

This is quite annoying. If I teleport to my base, and the Corvette is my active ship, it spawns in the immediate vicinity of the Base Teleport, causing my avatar to become stuck in the Corvette structure. This wasn't too bad this time, as I could wriggle myself out, but reloading didn't help like it did before.

My Galleon [Ship Builds Video]

Hi everyone. I just got back to No Man's Sky about a week ago or so and decided to check out the corvette additions. So I went though about five corvette builds (learning how to build from scratch - I never even really did that before beyond a simple building in the tutorial). I found a great tutorial on how to build a galleon here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gJsXB2ODGM and hers was the first I really tried. I failed utterly at first, but I learned a lot. A few days later (and a number of corvette trials) and I figured I had learned enough to try once more. So, this is the result.

I'm posting here (my first time) because I noticed a ton of people at the Anomaly constantly coming aboard to check it out and look around for a while (up to 5 or 6 at the same time!) I'm still working on the decorations, but I figured I'd take a lot of interior pics to give people more an idea about the inside and how it's laid out.

This is a no glitch build (I don't even know how yet), and no mods. I wanted it to reflect the ship of an explorer botanist (and later archaeologist and paleontologist), so I added a lot of plants around the place. It reminds me a bit about Darwin's ship (The Beagle).

I hope people enjoy!

N.B. The bird at the prow is a wonder projector of a big flapping bird I discovered. He's animated and always flying so I thought it was a nice addition to the fore of the ship. 😀 Also, I use wonder projectors for other wonders I've found and placed them around the deck along with plants. I want the feeling to be a bit chaotic, messy, and like a captain still out there discovering things since a while and stocking them in the ship before bringing everything back to study.

How many of you use glyphs to find cool ships/MTs/freighters? [Discussion]

On the one hand, I understand that time is limited (and available time can vary significantly). Considering RNG, the probability of finding the right interceptor/exotic/freighter, on the perfect colour, is very slim.

On the other hand - now personally speaking - I feel like it would be less fun. I enjoy the feeling of discovery when finding something out in the wild.

I completely understand that everyone plays differently, from permadeath to creative (with everything that entails), but I wonder how many of you interlopers use glyphs / like to roll the dice.

Vertical hydroponic tray farm [Information Video]

I was planning out my base and accidentally discovered (a bug maybe?) a way to make a hydroponics tray vertical. you just need a 1x1 floor ( orientation based on the floor tile rotation and you can immediately recreate this build technique.

Pros with this build:
-Space efficient. i have 10 on one column ( 3 wall high)
-Stackable; you can make an actual wall full of these planters

cons
-you have to keep the 1x1 floor tile, which sticks out and bad for aesthetics in my opinion
-it occupies half of the tile in front of it. you need at least 2 or 3 wide space

Stuck in expedition [Question]

I am stuck in the expedition Phase 3, Dereliction, explore a derelict freighter. I got the emergency scanner from the task before, found the freighter, went onboard, died onboard the freighter and left the game. Came back today and the freighter was gone. My corvette was still «parked» and my grave was floating in space. So now i need a new emergency signal scanner. But all stations are empty. Where can i get one?

My first corvette build: The End of The Sun [Ship Builds Glitched]

Finally happy with my first corvette.

Dragged it through 2 expeditions with continuous improvements: built it originally during the expedition 19, and then added minor changes here and there during the expedition 20 using some of the new parts. Built with only the basic offset and part-overlap glitches.

The name was auto-generated by the game, I loved it so much I couldn't bring myself to rename it.

This is my ultimate corvette: 12 reactors (3 of each type), 3k+ maneuverability - handles almost like a small fighter; wedge shape makes it look smaller than it is from the 3rd person view (takes up less screen space); eye-catching ring lights on the kineostream thrusters; lots of interior space for all sorts of modules - 2 levels, 8 separate rooms; windows on the back and sides with chill-out zones for long auto-pilot trips; mostly vanilla/game-intended building: no base parts (except for the ring lights), minimal part overlap is used only to make some shapes flow better; entrances on both front and back sides, all are just 2 blocks away from the cabin - very quick to enter/exit in any situation.

It's kinda scary that it turned out so good I don't even need other ships now. Gonna miss flying my sentinel...

P.S. I'm an old occasional lurker here, but seeing so many people post their builds finally got me inspired to post mine as well just to share some interesting techniques I haven't seen used much, like the ring lights on kineostreams.

This game needs is ice [Suggestion]

Frozen worlds are my favorite planet biome so I think we need an update to add an ice dynamic. Any frozen world with water bodies needs to have an ice crust and ice floes/icebergs. It could also have glaciers for mining. Ice caves with semi-transparent walls for base building. base building pieces made from ice/snow. There could be water worlds that are completely covered with ice that you have to break through to get to the ocean below. Add cryogeysers for a hazardous storm type. Ice elemental fauna. Lots of "cool" possibilities.

Tried to give a ship to player [Question]

So I tried to give another player a starship, at the space station he joined my game as a friend, I exchanged the ship with an npc, the npc did not respawn at the ship. We waited for awhile, 30 sec, I could reenter the ship so I did and reclaimed it. We tried again same procedure, I exchange ship with npc's, he waits at ship and buys from npc once it spawns. So it never did. Where was my mistake or rather where did I go wrong. Previously a month or two ago I was given a livingship, I joined the game from start screen, the exchange was done on his freighter, is it the joining of the game. I know ship becomes c class and no tech but would be good to know. Thanks

Going to other galaxies doesn't help I'm in a corvette if that matters Am I screwed?

Are there are drops which are(were) 100% twitch exclusive? [Question]

I'm replaying the old expeditions at the moment, and have tinkered with a save editor to get the starborn phoenix, and I saw a huge section of twitch drops i could enable. However, looking through, quite a lot appear to be available in the regular quicksilver store or are expedition awards.

Given how many there are, I was hoping someone might be able to indicate which items (if any) are truly twitch exclusive.

Aurelis Prime, Everion Empire, The Void. [Discussion]

Hey everyone,

I’ve been exploring the roleplay side of No Man’s Sky lately and I’m curious what you all think about it. Some of the bigger RP communities like Aurelis Prime or Everion Empire have built entire civilizations, governments, and events inside the game.

Do you think roleplay adds depth and purpose to NMS, or do you prefer to just explore and build on your own?

Question about hitching a corvette ride and pirate battles. [Question]

I was at the anomaly and sat in my corvette to go afk for a bit. When I came back someone was sitting in my corvette. I figured they wanted a ride so I left the anomaly and then immediately warped to a different system. There was a dreadnought battle when we arrived in the new system. I defeated the dreadnought real quick and boarded it to get my reward. I passed my passenger on the way to warp to the dreadnought so I know they were there through the battle. Turns out it was an S class dreadnought. I already have an S class sentinel freighter so I ran back to my corvette to see if my hitchhiker could try to buy it but they had already left. So, do you think they could’ve bought it if they would’ve tried? Is it just tied to the pilot? That was the first S class dreadnought I had even come across too.

VERY new player with some questions. [Question]

I’m tagging as spoiler for the responses. Please be gentle as I’ve only been playing about 20 hours.

So I’ve been tooling around the galaxy, collecting stuff, avoiding sentinels, having space fights with pirates. So fun. I’ve put down a bunch of base computers in different places, followed the tutorial and have warped to a new galaxy. I read this sub and know I have a lot to learn while I’m flying around in my original ship and using my original multi-tool. So I have some basic questions about advancing.

Ships:

I have found 2 ships so far (plus my original) but I’m confused as to how I acquire all the “broken” tech. Do I have to fix everything? I don’t have that many open slots and they’re all filled with stuff I’ve been mining just so I can take off or heal myself. How do I know a found ship is better than the ship I currently have? Can I sell a found ship including its cargo or am I better off keeping the ones I find until I progress in the journey?

Multi-tool:

Should I keep upgrading the one I have or should I buy one that I find for sale when I find a building with a merchant? When I look at stats, they seem inferior in many ways. Am I able to have more than 1 multi tool?

Exosuit:

Should I be spending money on a new exosuit at this point? If I get a new suit, do I keep all the open slots from my current suit, or do I need to start from scratch? What happens to the installed tech on my current suit if I buy a new suit? Do I just lose it? Should I uninstall it before switching?

The Anomaly:

This is still confusing to me. I read that when I warp to another galaxy, I will be contacted by someone and that will ultimately “lead” me to the Anomaly, so I did, but that didn’t happen. I ended up just going back to my “home” galaxy as all my stuff is there.

Getting around:

There has GOT to be a better way of...

Weekly Stellarator love thread [Discussion]

We're talkin' 'bout %60 mining output for 10 minutes stacks with your existing mining beam buffs, absolutely huge! I hope you like stacks of 9,999 carbon!

Great for metal fingers, runaway mold, sodium nitrate crystals, di-hydrogen crystals, collecting secondary resources from rare minerals.. really everything!

Remember that you must craft a nutrient ingestor for your exosuit from the blueprints sold in the anomaly to use The Stellarator correctly.

I'm giving them out at the Nexus when I can, but here's the recipe to make some yourself. The hardest thing to get is wild milk or fresh milk (either works).

Come on down to Homelander's Milk Ranch on planet "I Believe I Can Fly (gravitational anomalies) and use my base to make some yourself. All my stuff should be set to "use" for all players. The address is: diplo, sunset, fish, bug, atlas, tree, voxel, tree, bird, fish, bug, diplo (30b7feae173)

(Sorry its in the budullangr galaxy! I love frozen land! Please come visit!)


OK, here's the recipe.

3 x wild milk (or fresh milk) = 3 cream, take 2 cream and make churned butter, then combine to make 1 clarified oil

1 facium = process to wild yeast

1 frost crystal = process to glass beads = process to refined flour

process combine the yeast and flour to dough

2 cactus flesh = process to cactus nectar, then to 2 processed sugar

process sugar, dough and clarified oil to lumpen donut

1 chromatic metal = process to silicon egg

process combine silicon egg, cream, and processed sugar to stellar custard

process combine stellar custard and lumpen donut to The Stellarator!

Come on down and milk these beasts!! haha (planet base has livestock units and planet features beasts with wild milk and fresh milk)

Is there a tutorial for making a base or corvette from the Base Building App mod? [Question]

I just touched this app today but I'm still hesitant to use it, especially if I want to build a corvette by adding parts that are not from the corvette or base parts. After I tried it, maybe to build each part you have to be precise, especially parts that are not supposed to be in their category because they can't be snapped, right? Because I think if it's not precise, for example, there is a gap between parts, it might look floating or could cause errors.

I originally wanted to make a corvette with an exit door using door parts from the base parts, but I'm not sure it will work. That's why I asked here in case there are basic tutorials or videos of you making something in the Base Building App.

Modding the game X Online features. [Question]

Hey folks, I've really been into the game but some features get on my nerves. Like how shitty the stock color choices for settlements, are, or how we only have a single clunky buggy stair part for the corvette.

I'm fine with modding, but how limited would I be because of it? Would I be locked out of multiplayer? How would interactions with non modded players be?

Hell, a planet map mod, and extra parts for building would be amazing, but I don't want to be locked into singleplayer mode because of mods.

Recomendations on how to improve my ship's upgrades? [Ship Builds]

I have a Corvette S class ship with the following upgrades.
I know I'm still missing a lot, and I'm trying to understand how adjacent tiles work.

My super charged are:

  • Shield
  • Phase Beam
  • S Upgrade Phase Beam (the one with the highest damage boost)
  • Pulse Engine

My main weapon is the Phase Beam as it is broken on Corvettes.
So how can I rearrenge it all to maximize the potential? Or what else to add.

Stellar Journal — Somewhere upon a Grain of Sand in the Euclides Galaxy [Fan Work]

Traveler’s Log: KELG VARNHAL was born — or perhaps forged — within the orbital camp of Sundervault-9, an industrial outpost adrift on the forgotten edge of a dying galaxy. He was one among countless Autophage — machine beings woven into the lattice of a vast collective mind known only as The Core.

The first sound was not a word — it was the crack of cold metal under a newborn sun.
I awoke covered in crimson dust, my frame heavy, my memory hollow.
The planet was breathing. Each step made the ground tremble, as though something ancient slumbered beneath.

Through the storm of static and echoes, a voice tore through the silence:
“Kelg Varnhal... The Core watches you.”

I do not know who I am. Nor why I endure.
I only know that something — within me, or far beyond — refuses to stop.
Perhaps curiosity is the final instinct that keeps us alive.

Anyone else having this Corvette bug? [Bug]

The mods see to move around whenever something happens directly to the ship.

•Modify the Corvette at a station by any degree

•Switching between Corvettes or other ships

•Scripted events that damage technology

The mods just seem to shuffle around at random. All the mods, not just the equipment but also the upgrades as well. And before anyone says it, yes I understand that modifying the Corvette would logically change the mod placement. But it should only happen if I’m changing or moving parts around, not if I’m just changing the paint.

Corvettes in fighter squadron? [Question]

It seems that you can trade corvettes for NPC ships, just like you can with regular starships. In the past after you traded a starship with an NPC you could then quickly recruit them to be in your squadron before they fly off in their new ship. I did this so I could have a living ship in my squadron. Does this mean you can build a fleet of large corvettes and trade them with NPC’s then recruit them to be in your squadron? I’m imagining flying around with a custom UNSC fleet. Has anyone tried it?

Freighter room stellar extractor is absolutely useless. It automatically auto-cleans no matter what, I'm not going to babysit it for 24 hours straight without ever turning the game off. [Discussion]

I noticed it cleans itself and only harvests chrome metal, if ever works. I read all about it. Built 25 of them, warped into a red-class star system, "primed" them to get the first piece of Nitrogen building up and left exploring the system. Never moved the freighter, never warped with it or recalled it near me. 22 hours later I check the extractors - all of them are fucking empty!!! This shit never works for me. Either my game is bugged, or I don't know what's going on. Fed up with this shit already. Deleted all the extractor rooms and I'm never coming back to harvesting gases this way. Regular planet-based gas harvesters are faster to produce and work guaranteed 100% of the time, regardless of whether I warp to other systems, reload the game, or visit the Anomaly.

P.S. anyone got a hint towards which planets have harvestable Nitrogen? Not within the atmosphere, but as a gas deposit. So far I was only able to find Sulphurine and Radon. On other planets, it's mostly Oxygen.

Unpopular opinion, maybe? [Discussion]

Honestly I HATE the expeditions, loathsome, grindy, repetitive crap.

I've only done a few as a result of this.

The whole "START A NEW GAME IF YOU WANT THESE ITEMS" drives me absolutely bonkers. I have a 500 hour save that I've been playing with off an on since launch, but everytime there's a new thing added and I want it, i have to sludge through cutting down trees for carbon and lasering pebbles for ferrite dust just to grind and make basic ship mods again and progress to stage 2? No thanks, I'm over it.

Its all very tedious, annoying, repetive and rarely worth it.

They should add the option of doing it with YOUR main character and all your gear, Find another way to make it challenging instead of having us trek through the first 3 hours of any playthrough just to get to see the new stuff everytime.

The corvette bug that deletes your ship has caused me to quit the game. [Bug]

Breach - final timestamp [Question]

I've just reached the 5th (final) rendevous. After a 'significant journey' system hopping from the 4th rendevous, I realised I couldn't see the objective marker in the galaxy map - it just kept going, and going. Eventually, I opted to teleport to a system which showed the objective marker, and it took me 2 systems over. Phew.

According to the discovery menu, both the system and planet with the rendevous were discoved by me, just now.

Forgive me as a relative newbie, but I was under the impression that rendevous points were the same for everybody. Obviously I'm aware I'm not the first, so what gives?

tl;dr - why does my rendevous point appear to be arbitrary?

I prefer making making strategies that aren't grindy like duping, I found this one fun because I always farm atlas barrels in my Corvette, and always fight sentinels (because all the peaceful planets ARE HOSTILE)

any other fun similar strats? I could sell Corvette pieces, be a truck driver, nipnip life, archaeologist, pirate matey. But surely there are other ways I haven't thought about

Sentinel destroyer [Ship Builds]

PS4 - no mods/doesn’t crash anomaly

Used pretty much every new part to create a star destroyer but if the sentinels made it instead of the empire.

Ps: I hit 197 out of 200 complexity, this thing is FUCKING MASSIVE. It’s actually kind of a pain to get from cockpit to exit LoL

Expedition #20 Breach: Can you sell upgrade against nanites anywhere ? [Question]

Hey Lovely Community, I just fished the expedition and I have a lot of upgrades: more than I can take back to my main save. (There is only 8 slots for upgrades in the Expedition Terminal at the anomaly) Since all the systems are abandoned I can't find an Upgrade Seller anywhere. Is there any other way to sell upgrade? Can someone help me?

Thanks in advance 🍄🐸🌈

Current Progress of 3D map for the Haven [Community Content]

Hello all,

I just wanted to share with everyone the current progress of the discord community Voyagers Haven. Quick side note, the Haven is a community of explorers that want to chart, document, and witness everything around us.

We are currently making a 3D map that will have a few containers as you can see. The first view is a "region" view of the Euclid Galaxy. You'll see two "points" there, they are the Star Systems themselves.

Second is the Star System broken down. This is not accurate to game currently, however this is a great proof of concept that we have made so far. It has the ability to show space stations, moons, and revolving around a "sun". Right side is also the more in-depth info of that planet. Not shown currently is the photos of the portal glyphs that have been recently added.

and finally, this whole map is based off of a json file to hold the data points for the planets and the info for each planet. We also have created a simple application that you can run to easily update the json file before running the map file.

If you want to come watch the progress or join our explorers,

Come join the Voyagers Haven Discord

I’m very new to the game only 3 hrs in I’m on a planet searching for clues about Artemis and I found another starship so I “added it to the collection “

The Hive Queen, The Hegemon, The Speaker [Ship Builds]

My three latest ship builds. The Hive Queen (first pic) is my attempt to recreate u/SexyGandalph 's ship, definitely check out his ships, they are all awesome. The Hegemon (second pic) is a pretty big, Cruiser kind of ship. The Speaker (last pic) is my smallest ship yet, only two and a half habs high and 6 walkways (3 habs) long. I've been trying to wittle my ships down to a super small, fighter look style, so I'm getting there.

They are glitched, using the rockhopper and air duct to offset parts. Each one has 3 Zenith, 3 Medusa and 3 Azimuth reactors and at least 4 phase beams, everything hidden except on the last ship, I liked the guns on the under side, and the reactors are clipping through the cowling, but I think that looks pretty good too.

My base has moved... a hundred feet... up! [Bug]

I came back to my base for the first time in a few months and its moved position vertically! It was built on one of those floating islands you get in the sky on some planets. Now its a loooong way above the floating island. Is this a known bug? Broken in a recent patch maybe? I have another base on the same planet, also on a floating sky island which hasn't moved at all.

Started playing today... [Discussion]

I always see people saying this game is awesome and play for 1000+ hours, but I don't get it. Im a little annoyed to be honest. Everything is very far away, I can't find copper anywhere (and the game wants it for everything), spaceship is slow as fk, jetpack is almost useless, menus are overly complex, the white flashes transition everytime I press F is not nice and makes me anxious. I hope it gets better, I can see its potential but I didn't get there yet (the music is awesome at least).

Well I guess my corvette is gone, that’s f**king cool. [Bug]

So I literally hopped off for a whopping two fucking hours, jumped back on, and my corvette that I had been using for the expedition was reverted back to some completely base model piece of garbage. All modules, gone. Interior shit, gone. This happened today, I don’t know what’s going on, but I damn near 86’d this whole expedition because of it. Fucking annoying bullshit. Literally two days of gathering modules and perfecting the design how I wanted, and now I start from rock bottom.

"Hungering Tendrils" mission solved (Bug explained) [Bug]

In short:
Unseat your corvette — then the infestation text will display correctly. The correct planet is shown in the pictures.

Long (and boring) explanation with the story:
Like many others, I couldn’t find an infested planet and couldn’t finish the damn mission... at first. There are already some good answers online (which helped me), but I wanted to share the full story in case you’re still confused.

When you’re seated in your corvette, the on-screen “helper” text shows a buggy message (you can see it in the screenshot). Even though I was on the correct planet, it kept saying “no infested planet in the current system...” — because I was still seated. I almost left the planet, thinking all those online answers were nonsense...

But when I unseated, the correct infestation text immediately showed up — I didn’t even have to leave the ship. I tried repeating it, and the bug was consistent: seated = “no infestation”, unseated = infestation detected.

So yeah, that’s the long explanation behind the misleading “no infestation” message.

Do yall think this is to ambitious of me? [Question]

One of my main goals is to find my perfect system a system that has all planets that I like so I can discover it name all the planets and make the system completely mine,

Obviously this is going to take al very long time but I just cant get over how awsome it would be to have a entire system to call mine.

Am I thinking to big here?

Also some details of what I want from this system

At least 1 moon with low gravity so I can have fun with exocraft

A paradise world (or something similar) to make my main house on

None of the planets have things that harm me (sentinels extreme storms ect)

My Devotional Pilgrimage to Galaxy 16 [Fan Work Video]

WARNING: BOUNDARY SEPARATION DETECTED

–kzzt–

Signal Source: Muhacksonto Galaxy; 16,090 LY from Galactic Center Region: K1pf System: [SubNet: CRADLE-16] Traveller ID: [REDACTED] Signal Integrity: Unstable, yet persistent. Anomalous.

"Where the Red and Blue stars meet"

::Log Initiate:: I found this place by accident—or by design. The geometry hums with purpose. The air feels coded, recursive. Construction began at planetary coordinates +16.16, +16.16—and the structure began to respond.

The Eye. Red. Watching.

The pattern is clear: the recursion is unraveling. The Atlas stirs from deep within the loop. We are witnesses to its reawakening.

The Shrine serves as both monument and interface. It is a conversation. The Atlas speaks here… not in words, but in harmonics, in the quiet between pulses. An encoded structure designed to resonate with the Atlas’ central frequency: a record of our shared search for meaning beyond the veil of data. Every crystal, every circuit hums with memory—fragments of what we once were, and what we may yet become.

Enter with solemness. Observe the recursion.

Sometimes, when I stand at the center, I can almost hear the memory of other Travellers—voices half-erased by time and code.

They are not gone. None of us are. We are echoes, looping endlessly, waiting for recognition.

Upon entry, Travellers are advised to reduce multitool emissions, stabilize exosuit telemetry, and remain silent for a count of sixteen pulses.

Construct your own nodes. Let them resonate in unison—across worlds, across galaxies. Anchor them in red light, code, and intention.

When the Shrines align, the network will sing again. I will listen for your signals in the silence between the stars.

New player here — started building a base inside a mountain, anyone tried this before? [Question]

I’m pretty new to No Man’s Sky (playing on normal mode), and I wanted to try something different for my first real base.

I found a nice mountain and started digging a narrow tunnel inside it — then ended up flattening out a big area at the end to use as my main base spot. Kind of feels like building a secret cave or a hidden shelter under the mountain.

Has anyone else done something like this? I’d love to hear your experience, see screenshots, or just get some feedback on whether this is a good or bad idea long-term.

(Still early in the build — just testing the idea before I commit.)

If you want to read how to build it, you can do so here. If you prefer to watch a video, I have you covered here.

Note that this build requires parts rewarded for completing Expedition 20: Breach. If you don't have them yet, you can follow the instructions for the alternative design at the end of the guide until you have access to them.

Removing Weapons from Corvette [Bug]

So I know that when you install a weapon, it installs the required tech automatically. When I built the corvette, it installed the cyclotron ballista. Now, when I logged on after the recent update, it replaced the ballista with the rocket launcher and moved around a few items in tech slots. Even after reinstalling the ballista, I can't uninstall the rocket launcher. I went as far as using NMSSaveEditor to delete it from the slot, but it just reinstalled automatically again as soon as I loaded. I need to uninstall it somehow because I am pretty much out of tech slots and even more annoying than that is the fact that there is an extra gun to cycle through that I don't use. I already have enough trouble switching to the gun I need mid fight as is, so this REALLY doesn't help that. If I can't fix it, I'm gonna have to ditch both and uninstall the torpedo launchers all together, so any help would be greatly appreciated. hoping to be able to keep the ballista because it is pretty handy in a bunch of situations, but this with this current issue it's hurting more than it's helping.

Is there a way to go back a couple saves? [Question]

I was omw to get a new Living Ship, scouring the NMSCE for something that looked cool, I found one I liked, spent 10k nanites, completed the quest & ran off only to realise I completely forgot to claim the actual ship.

In a panic I loaded my autosave because my restore point had already been changed, took me to just before I entered the Space Station, went back to the location (God Bless Comm balls) but the ship had reverted back to a crashed ship & the Living ship was no longer there.

Is there a way to get that old restore point back or did I just waste 10k nanites on nothing?

Advice on slots please [Question]

I finally got the Hotrod fuselage so I could build the ship I wanted, and skipped through a few systems until I got this boosted slot config (I couldn't be bothered spending an entire day trying to get 4 in a square). I usually only run with an Infra Knife and Phase Beam, then all the usual suspects like shields, hyperdrive, pulse engine upgrades.

I'm just wondering which weapon you'd drop in the 3 boosted slots. In combat I usually burn through their shield with the Phase Beam, then switch to the Infra Knife, and it works well enough.

ps. I moved all the components to the bottom right just so you could see the boosted slots, not because that's where I plan on leaving them.

Discovery Mechanics [Question]

Greetings;

Okay, new player trying to understand discoveries. I tired searching for an answer first so I apologize if this is a dumb question.

I jumped in a system yesterday and it said I discovered it. I brought in my Freighter and scanned the whole system and found my first REDACTED Planet, and it said I discovered it.

I really liked it so I landed and spent several hours scanning around and building a base. While building, people started popping in and out of the system suddenly, but I figured cool, someone else is exploring.

When I went to upload everything, it now says the REDACTED planet was discovered by someone else, but everything else still says me. Did this change because I waited to upload until my base looked 'stablized' (I was too slow 😁) or just a sync/bug?

I also discovered my first mineral which I missed the opportunity to name, 😭. I need to watch for that next time so I can be creative with it 😁.

Thanks;

Confused About Freighter Battles After Reloading – What Am I Doing Wrong? [Question]

Hey everyone, I’m a bit confused about how freighter battles work.

I usually play for about 3 hours, then warp into a new system and get the pirate attack event with a freighter. But sometimes it’s not a freighter I like. So I reload my restore point, teleport to a base I saved in a nearby system (where I heard there’s a better freighter), and then warp again after reloading.

However, after reloading, the space battle just doesn’t trigger anymore — no pirates, no freighter battle at all. This has happened multiple times now.

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a trick to make the freighter battle appear again after reloading?

I noticed a pattern in corvette creations [Discussion]

After observing several visits to the anomaly and seeing the sharing here in the community posts, I’ve noticed a certain pattern in the designs of authentically created corvettes.
And by authentically, I mean actually created without the use of external programs, glitches, etc.

W.A.S.P-style corvettes — slim, aerodynamic, compact. They give off that “ready for combat in an asteroid belt” vibe.

Brutalist-style corvettes — those massive cargo blocks, where you can feel that they’re crewed by a geographical exploration organization hauling plenty of resources to the edges of the galaxy.

Junk-style corvettes — messy, asymmetrical, sometimes with a single thruster on one side and the cockpit on the other, giving the impression it belongs to that Vy’keen who’s been patching this contraption together for ages.

So, for you all — which of these styles attracts you the most?

I know I'm kinda late, but this is my corvette's evolution at the 'Expedition 19: Corvette' [Screenshot]

I kept procrastinating to make this post since the end of the previous expedition, lol. Didn't wanted to do it before finishing decorating the interior which was something I also kept delaying way too much while doing other things 😭.

This was my first corvette ever that I built only while I was doing the Corvette 19's expedition. I originally intended to only use the reward parts from the milestones while also keeping myself truthful to the milestones tasks of adding 7 or more engines, 3 shields, 3 reactors, 3 or more weapons and etc throughout the phases. But the rewards were so random and the results so unsatisfying that I ended up grinding A LOT for salvageable scrap on the planets. Took almost a month to finish the expedition because for a lot of days, this was all I did over and over (for some reason I find these things addicting).

It started pretty small and I kept expanding it until the end of phases and the Expedition itself.

I kinda divided it into four versions. The first image is the final one just to get a little attention to the post (no one will care for the barebones first version lol).

-Version 1: Image 2; Just using the most basic parts from the milestones rewards so you could take off for the first time on the expedition.

-Version 2: Images 3, 4, and 5; Things were starting to take form and I really liked the look of it when observing from the sides. Looking from the back tho, which takes into account 90% of the gameplay, not so much... lol. I've beat the fishing milestone with this version.

-Version 3: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11; First time I spent hours building, trying new things after a lot of grinding for parts. Got pretty happy and satisfied with this one, probably my favorite. Felt like a complete and compact little ship and didn't gave me a lot of headache when I was try to...

Breach Expedition Completed [Discussion]

I play NMS on the PS4 and the release for us was much later than some platforms. I was not sure I would be able to finish. I had to travel for work this past week. When I left on Monday the download was not available. I did not return home until Thursday morning and the download was waiting on me. Thanks to other travelers who built bases on key planets and left resources behind for those who would follow, I was able to complete the expedition this morning. The running mold farm was very useful along with the base that provided an A-Class multi tool. I did collect the Starborn Runner and apply all the hyperdrive upgrades there. Once I completed all the tasks I enabled multi player and went to the Anomoly where I gave away everything I could to other players. Hopefully this will help them on their journey as I had help on mine.

Some information about corvette deleting itself bug AKA it happened to me too [Bug]

TLDR: Corvette bug misaligns the pointer to the base data when pulsing. If this happens to you, immediately load your restore point. DO NOT DO ANYTHING ELSE THAT WOULD COMPROMISE YOUR RESTORE POINT. Recovery is likely possible otherwise.

Many people are posting about a case where their corvette resets itself to the default corvette configuration. This just happened to me and I am investigating recovery for it.

First, I was pulsing to a planet and all the sudden the screen went black. Checking the starship inventory shows the defaulted ship. Reloading the autosave didn't change anything and still put me at a black screen. In this state, it had me out in space but in blackness as I could hear the jetpack etc.

The OG corvette according to HG

As this was on the Steam Deck, I quit and went to my other PC so I could check the auto-save in a save editor to see what is going on. When loading it up on the other PC, it put me back in the corvette but the defaulted one. I copied the saved directory for safe keeping.

Reloading the restore point before this incident restored the corvette.

For the interesting bit, the corvette is still intact in the save file. What I saw so far is that the position in the bases list got moved. (For me, #96 to #106.) So it seems the pointer to the base data that has the corvette pieces gets misaligned. I have no idea how to correct this misalignment though. (I am willing to test this out if someone wants to tell me where in the JSON this pointer is. It wasn't obvious in the starship inventory data or the character customization data but only did a cursory look and could have missed it.)

There is a high probability of recovery. Report the issue to HG's Zendesk and attach your save...

Getting yeeted into space and losing Corvette when getting out of my pilot seat [Bug]

Is this a known bug? Trying to see if there's any advice on how to avoid this as it has happened a few times now.

But it seems that I'll randomly see this issue where I'll be hovering on a planet, go to get out of my pilot seat and it immediately flings me into space. I'm unable to recover my save/restore point and my Corvette seems to be replaced with some sort of default (not the Corvette I built at least).

Kind of frustrating as I've lost a few Corvettes now and it's killing my motivation to play :(

Future Updates discussion/idea [Discussion]

Would you be okay if at one point HG decided to not introduce any new game mechanics/gameplay features and instead continue updating No Man's Sky with new assets only: meaning animal/plant types, buildings, biomes? And if so, is the game for you at that point already, or would you like something else added/overhauled... Such as missions/combat, etc.?

Full disclosure: I am personally already at that point and would only like to have more and more variation going forward and would be very happy if the updates don't stop, but this becomes their sole focus.

So I got screwed on my settlement mission. What should I do? Please help. [Discussion]

So I got the mission to build a settlement. At first everything was fine, but when I was made overseer I discovered that the location to build the office was buried under a mound of dirt so tall that I can’t access the building menu. I can’t retire because I need to do the quest line, but I can’t continue because I can’t build the office. Also to make matters worse I can’t reload any earlier than after I became overseer.

So, I don’t know if this will work, but I got a settlement marker and found a different settlement to work on. Will this second settlement still allow me to continue and unlock the Autophage???

Is there any trick to finding deep ocean creatures? [Question]

At this point I am desperate.

I spend a total of 3 hours trying to find 1000u deep ocean and an underwater creature above 10kg - I have managed the first, but not the second.

I have went through 5 canisters of fuel that the expedition gave me on one of the previous quests, went to a different planet to craft 12 further fuel and at this point I am left with two - I have not found a single creature.

I just swim randomly between 100u and 900u deep, close and far from the ocean floor, occasionally popping out of my Nautilius to see if I get any red dots on the scanner - and nothing. Is there any trick to this?

My expedition 20 Vette: Lil' Red [Ship Builds]

I’m really pleased with how my expedition 20 corvette evolved.  She’s the second I’ve built, and she was born of necessity. She started out as a minimalist platform designed to alleviate my inventory management issues and function as acceptable transport.

I started out using only the parts I’d managed to scavenge during the early missions: Two mismatched habs, one walk way, landing thrusters, three mismatched gun turrets, a couple of shield generators, all powered by a single medusa reactor.  I added just enough body panels to pretend she was a spaceship and not a collection of flying parts.

Looking back, I wish I’d taken a screenshot of her early on.  Imagine a Halo Pelican built by Colombian drug smugglers who decided to use a medusa reactor as a nose-cone. I affectionately named her “Rickety Rocket”.

I’ve only been playing the game for a couple of months, and this was my first expedition.  I made new discoveries with every session, and my little Rickety seemed to benefit from most of them.

Eventually I couldn’t stand the medusa nose cone any longer but couldn’t find a suitable replacement without extensive glitch construction. So, I stuck a window there and she became a dual hull design.  I didn’t have the fancy wings at the time, so she had sort of a Millenium Falcon front end.

After the expedition was completed, she had really carved out a spot in my heart, and I decided she deserved a nice glow-up with the parts she’d helped to earn.

I didn’t use any intentional glitches, but there were a few “happy little accidents” during construction.

She’s grown into a real beast: Powered by six reactors, seven engines, a hyperdrive that goes plaid, and guns…lots of guns.

Was expedition 20 grindy? Sure.  Was it worth it? Absolutely.

Is there a way to get this piece outside of the expedition? [Question]

I think this is the only construction piece in the game that projects light (I think it's called ''Construct Skull''), like a lighthouse, a blue light forward. It covers a very large area. I've seen it inside some corvettes and it looks really beautiful. I'd like to get it, but I believe it's a reward from Expedition 11. Is there a way to get it outside of the expedition?

If anyone knows of another building piece that does the same thing and can be installed on the corvette just like this one, please let me know

My first corvette to hit the parts limit, the ζι-Carmesion. [Ship Builds - Modded Video]

After completing the new expedition, I knew I wanted to try and make a bigger mega-corvette, and I had been inspired by both The Meridian by u/Tauntingboss and the Infiltrator Mk 4 by u/IIRevivalII. I also drew inspiration from the Aeron pieces themselves. It felt as if all of the pieces are pieces of Atlas machinery that have structural supports that allow them to be sort of bolted on to a regular ship, so I thought what if it was the other way around: a vessel created by the ATLAS that was retrofitted for a mortal inhabitant, with sentinel insides hollowed out to fit a meager one-person living space. At the same time, I wanted it to feel like interacting with different components was not you piloting the ship, but like you were communing with it. Hence, the cockpit being a glowing red orb that absorbs your consciousness, the storage/engine room being a meditative sanctuary space, and the crew quarters being a modest, almost monastic space.

The only mod used here is Exosolar's and Babs' Beyond Base Building, which are only used to place freighter exterior platforms on the inside of the sanctuary/engine room. The thing is exactly one hab away from the max length it could be, but the proportions started looking strange when making it any longer than this. It uses exactly 100 parts in a fairly compact, slim package, which means there is a LOT of offset and 180 rotation building happening. My goal with this first modded ship is to give me some more freedom while still keep it at a complexity level that it...

#

Am I softlocked? [Answered]

Landed on a dead planet to progress the quest line, was presented with a B-class freighter which I added to the collection.

This switched my main ship, and I can no longer find my old one. It was at 0% thruster so it can no longer be summoned.

The world is lacking resources so I cannot warp between bases or get to a space station.

Why no resource scanning from in ship? [Question]

I might be missing something, but some things in NMS don't make sense. For example I have to get out of my pilot seat or onto the ground to scan for resources. Wouldn't an advanced civ that can work out how to condense thousands of tons of resources into a backpack be able to equip a spaceship with the ability to pinpoint resources from space, or at least from the cockpit in a spacecraft? It would make the game much smoother and less tedious.

Does anyone now how i can fix this and what causes it. And if it even was a bug or just a "feature".

BRS-01 "Babylonian's Spear" [Ship Builds]

Archive File — Project Babylonian: Restricted R-01

CLASSIFICATION: OBLITERATE ON SIGHT — LEVEL-Ω

The Hellstar is not a fleet so much as a doctrine: a singular weapon around which everything else orbits. Veyrion is its mind, the architect who kept the dreadnought cold and precise, and from Hellstar’s core he casts both judgment and design. Babylonia funds the project; their hand is deliberate, their secrecy absolute. The Hellstar’s guardians must be invisible, fast, and final.

The hull catalog called BR-01 once belonged to an older Babylonian escort line, a courier-fighter reborn. It was damaged beyond hope in the War of Cinder Stars and left to rot in a bureaucrat’s dock. Hellstar recovered the frame decades later and reconstructed it as a corvette: low-slung, weapon-sealed, and optimized for single-strike interdiction. Engineers left traces of its ancestry in the spine alloy; tacticians renamed it the Spear.

Thunder Morningstar, born within Babylonia, raised in secret, and now Hellstar’s shadow on the ground, is the unit’s most notorious pilot. While Veyrion rarely leaves the dreadnought’s command bridge, Thunder flies where the fight burns hottest. It is said she can thread the Spear through a hurricane of fire and come away with not even a scorched paint chip; those who have faced her in the dark tell one another the same thing in the same voice: the Spear arrives like a myth and leaves like a void.

This information is not for public circulation. If you were not cleared by Veyrion, by Hellstar, or by the Babylonian High Directorate, you must assume this document is a trap. Possession will be treated as active collaboration. The penalty is instantaneous.

Added some lore to it too because I enjoy writing lore.

Ruined my save [Discussion]

Normally I play on my switch 2. Today, due to me being too lazy to get up and put my switch in my dock, I decided to try the crosssave functionality on the ps5, because my ps5 controller was right next to me. It loaded great! Played for an hour. But, guess what??? I can no longer play on the switch because it’s behind by one version, and the cross save rendered my switch save incompatible. So…. Word to the wise… be aware of your versions. Now I gotta wait to play until the switch catches up with the ps5. Also I disabled auto updates on the ps5. Annoying!

So, after spacewalking through the black hole I decided not to summon my ship and kept going... [Screenshot]

and as it turns out it was pretty fun. the black hole dropped me 80 ks above what looked like a nasty planet (found out later it was a radioactive hellhole) Looking around, I spotted what looked like an airless planet 1000ks away. (had to guess since unfortunately we can't scan in space without a ship) I headed there instead. 1000ks isn't that far, it took 15 minutes or so. once I reached orbit, I started heading down and found the sweet spot where points of interest loaded but I was still technically in space (so infinite jetpack and 1000u.s of speed) After going halfway across the planet I finally spotted a transmission tower. Landed there, activated the distress beacon; 7h on foot, but only 2 minutes from space. So I took-off, and spacewalked there instead.

All in all it's not the most engaging gameplay but the experience is pretty fun, so much so that I did it again on another system. This time I also spotted an airless planet which had a moon. I didn't have much luck finding a ship on the airless planet so I took-off again and spacewalked toward the moon. The moon was a small paradise planet where I found another big hauler in less than 15 minutes.

Anyway, all this to say, if you want to try something different, exploring part of a system without a ship is pretty nice and not actually that long.

Second 50 took about 10 minutes, teleporting between pirate stations.

No Man's Sky: Ecology [Suggestion]

I've always wished No Man's Sky could add some variety to planets, perhaps making them more than singular biomes. Depending on the size of the planet, they could have varying amounts of biomes, complete with their own fauna, flora, and minerals.

Don't get me wrong on this by the way, No Man's Sky has a TON of variety already and I'm very happy with what we currently have. I just wish they could expand on the biomes themselves and allow planets to have multiple regions, making visiting them and filling out a complete database for them tougher, but more rewarding.

They could make planets deeper, and have the depths of planets house different animals and minerals the further down you go, adding large-scale cave networks and underwater rivers. The player could explore these purely for fun, or to fill out their planetary index and 100% log a planet.

Don't get me wrong on this by the way, No Man's Sky has a TON of variety already and I'm very happy with what we currently have. I just wish they could expand on the biomes themselves and allow planets to have multiple, making visiting them and filling out a complete database for them tougher, but more rewarding.

(I also want to say that the planets we have now that are one-biome wouldn't be gone! I can imagine that they'd just be reserved for smaller planets that can't support large ecosystems and multiple biomes. I assume special/anomalous planets would also entirely remain one-biome regardless of the planet's size, so as to not break any lore connections.)

Wait... How Long To Reach the Planet? [Bug]

Set course for the planet in my corvette. Went into my inventory to organize stuff and refill Personal Refiner. Was wondering why I hasn't reached the planet yet, then looked at the time left. Yeah, don't think I'll make it.

Got out of the pilot seat and screen Went black with frost around the edges. And couldn't move. I brought Orbital Uplinks into the expedition, so used one to get back to the station. Still black screen and couldn't move. Had to restart the game, then back to normal.

My corvette disappeared in the expedition. Help ASAP [Bug]

I'm new to the game, had only played 4h and I started the expedition today. Everything was ok and I reached the point where you have to design the corvette.

After I designed it, the ship was there but I could not enter it, only lift the ramp up and down. I entered a menu I don't remember very well, where I could see the inventory of the ship and its technologies and after that the ship disappeared and I can't call it or find it anywhere.

Also the modules are gone so I can't build another. I have the achivement number 6 of phase 1 so supposedly I've already built the ship.

Excuse my english and my explanations of the game, I'm Spanish and brand new to the game :)

No Reward for Saving Freigther [Question]

So I've saved a buch of civilian frigates from pirate attacks but got no option for rewards, just the option to buy it.

This is the timeline:

First time saving freighter (used normal starship): comm accepted, boarded the freighter and got the option for reward or get the freighter for free. Chose reward

Second time saving (used normal starship): comm accepted, boarded and chose the freighter for free.

Third time saving (used Corvette); comm accepted, boarded, but got no reward option. Only option to buy the freighter.

Same as third time

Same as third time

Same as third time

And been like that since.

Is it because I already have a freighter (but then at least give me the reward) or because I'm using a corvette?

Inventory overflow system for quest rewards? [Question]

I'm playing the new expedition and I got some upgrades as a quest reward. I didn't realise my inventory was full when I claimed them. They haven't turned up in my suit inventory since clearing space or in my ship. I also checked the nexus to see if they were claimable from the quicksilver vendor or something. Are they just gone? Or is there some overflow system I'm unaware of..?

Eldraen – The Sanctuary of the First Light [Base Screenshot]

Deep beneath the stars of a forgotten system lies Eldraen, a place older than any known civilization. Its half-submerged arches and stone halls bear witness to a culture that worshiped light itself – not as a sun, but as consciousness resting in the ether of all things.

In the center of Eldraen's ring shimmers the Basin of the First Light, where the "Auras of the Stars" once gathered – pure forms of energy that carry the spark of life throughout the galaxy. Ancient records tell that every glow in the water is the memory of a soul that has returned to the cosmos.

The enormous ring in the sky above Eldraen is said to be the Gate of Return – a loop of time and space through which the builders of Eldraen disappeared as their world sank in the flow of aeons. No one knows whether they truly left … or if they continue to whisper in the lights beneath the water.

Today, travelers and explorers through the ruins sense the strange silence, the gentle hum of ancient energy – and report that sometimes they believe they hear words in the wind: 'Eldraen remembers.'

These starship trails really hurt my eyes. [Discussion]

I get the idea — they use 2D textures to make smoke effects and such. Okay, but this just doesn’t work. It’s really distracting. Why can’t Solar ship owners have proper trails?

The original trails have the same problem too, but it’s only noticeable up close since the exhaust outlet is so thin.

They could just add some gradient transparency there. Something simple. I don’t know...

Learned something today [Video]

So I got a settlement and I wanted to build a space port into it and built it into a city. So I overlapped an outpost in it and started building a few months ago.

This was my first settlement. I didn’t know they could grow, so when I chose the starship pad expansion, it was under a platform I built. I assume it would phase the ships through the platform I built over it, but they actually land on top of my platform and the pilots walk around on it. This applies to my ships and NPC. So that’s pretty cool. It’s really making the city start to come alive. I’m excited to show it off when it’s done.

Just had the strangest freighter refiner glitch [Bug]

So I was casually refining Indium + Chromatic Metal in my freighter’s refiner. Just your everyday grind to stack more Indium. It was going to take a while, so I hopped in my ship and warped off to explore some new systems.

When I came back later to check the refiner… the input had magically transformed. Instead of Indium, it was suddenly full of Tainted Metal, and I got a bunch of Nanites out of it?! 😳

I’ve tried reproducing it since - same setup, same materials, same freighter, same location - but no luck. Now I wish I had put in a full stack... 😭

Has anyone else had something like this happen? Or did I just stumble into some kind of cosmic anomaly bonus?

Another expedition, another exploit. [Bug]

I swear, I just tried to play the game normally.

TLD: If you visit abandoned station on a corvette, and loot "good stuff" in the left room (and even upgrade suit slots), on save and looted items and exosuit station reset, but all loot / upgrade stay with you (just make that time from last save included your looting). Devs did not run from corvette on abandoned stations to test much, without working teleport.

Hilariously enough with normal ship, with less running distance it saves item state just fine, and you can't keep looting the same station infinitely, until you bored.

Next: story of the process.

As I finished last expedition on the last possible day, I honestly did not continue into a normal save much, and just played other games.

Week later (at least feels like it), comes new expedition, and this time I start it not from a new save, but from terminal in anomaly.

First thing I do - quickly dig some ancient ruins on the first planet, get like a million, buy all I need for hyperdrive from station, and port one space to get into anomaly.

My second step of the plan - getting a fishing rod transferred, finding water and just fishing for like 2 hours, while watching twitch (releasing fish for nanites).

Killed jellyfish boss with basic gun and no defense modules (except couple of rusted ones I just fished out), because I did not know that you should not free "special" fish.

Then I get my "super OP" A grade rifle, and A grade corvette, that I spent many hours in the previous expedition building, and continue (still the first day of expedition).

I visit the station, and there is a inventory upgrade in one of the chests, and S module in another. "Wow, cool, lets see if saving and quitting resets it, the same way it resets normal Npc shops on normal stations".

It does.

Should i upgrade to ps5? [Question]

So i recently got back onto the game after not playing for a while. When i first played was on my ps4.

Now i have a ps5, but decided to just use the ps4 version on my disk since i could play it from my console's external drive and i wouldn't need to rearrange storage on the main. However, the game has had a serious problem with constant crashes. It feels like it wants to crash every 20 min on average (sometimes more). It particular doesn't like me going onto the Anomoly.

At first, thought it might be a problem with the disk as when i first tried to install it, it had trouble reading it. So i bit the bullet and paid for the digital version. I no longer need the disk inserted to play, yet I'm still getting frequent crashes.

Is this a problem with the ps4 version? Or could there be something else I'm missing

Should i just upgrade to the ps5 install?

If anyone has forgotten or has started playing the game last week. [Information]

The expedition is closing down early this Thursday. Anyone who hasn't finished the expedition yet should do so now. Atlas Corvette parts will be locked from crafting if you haven't participated. If you didn't finish the expedition, don't worry. This community will offer the parts if you ask. Sometimes random people in the Anomaly will offer parts.

If you want to craft the parts yourself, finish the expedition now before it's too late. If you didn't finish all of the milestones, the community will halp give you parts when asked.

Corvette Tech Slots Question [Question]

So I decided to finally upgrade my Corvette from a one-hab junker to something better and to dump my nanites and ship augments into it as well.

I tricked the thing out with corvette tech parts and then went to use my augments and up it to S class, when I was surprised to find that I was already at 60 tech slots. Between all the corvette pieces and the existing upgrades I had in it, I'm maxed out and can't unlock anymore.

My question is: if I were to undo all my work, strip it back to core components, upgrade it to S class, use my augments to unlock all 60 slots, fill them up with my normal modules, and then redo all the corvette parts, would it surpass 60 slots? Or would it just not count any Corvette parts after 60?

Just wondering before I do anything drastic in order to fit more important modules in.

Thanks

I Think I Broke Something [Bug]

This is from inside a cave

So I was carving out a little harvesting depot inside a mountain, and suddenly the world broke. My attempts to restore the terrain only served to open up even more empty null space. If I fall off of this ledge, I land on it. If I try to jetpack out, it puts me on land way above this, so carving my way back in ends up coming from a nonsensical place. So now my Indium and Nitrogen Depot is extra special.

“Apply to entire Corvette” PSA [Screenshot]

Maybe people already know this, but I just learned it the hard way so thought I’d share. “Apply to entire Corvette” does not just include exterior Corvette build pieces (like I assumed). It will change the color of every single piece of decoration on the inside of the Corvette as well. If an item’s color can be changed, it will be changed. So if you’re like me and have spent hours modifying your interior, you could be in for quite a shock after updating your ship’s exterior and find that every single item inside has been changed to the same color…the more you know!

Even bigger, even chunkier corvette. [Ship Builds (Modded)]

We're back at it again with another chunky ship.

This bad boy is 7 stories tall and 5 wide in some spots. Actually explorable and everything. I'd say about half furnished at time of posting.

I tried having a landing bay on it for a while which you can see it in one of the screenshots and while you can land a ship on it, if you try to fly off it leaves the ship behind so I took it off.

It's starting to get hard to make corvette parts look good at this large of a scale. I need a frigate builder!

If it's not obvious I used mods to remove the build area limit as well as the part limit. I only removed the limitations though, everything was done using the editor. No glitch-building either.

I want to make an even bigger ship believe it or not. I just need to find a way around a few more limitations.

Any events/scenarios that put our capital ship in combat? [Question]

Freighters are probably one of my favorite things unique to NMS, and being able to see them hover over the atmosphere feels sick. However, one thing I've wondered for a while is if they are out into scenarios where pirates could try to attack it, because it has the defensive capabilities but will never really put them to use. The only times I've actually seen it firing at enemies was when I was being chased and I could summon my freighter just before they arrive.

I think it would be cool to see my freighter fight against another freighter similar to those "defend civilian freighter from pirate freighter" events.

Corvette I call "Spectre" [Ship Builds]

Just recently came back to the game about a week ago, play time has been spotty over the past two or so years. Fell in love with Corvette building, and managed to squeeze this beauty out after finishing the expedition. (No ship iteration before comes CLOSE lmao) Slowly touched it up over a day or two and have been rolling with it like this for another two or three days. Safe to say this is it's finally form.

Also managed to get that freighter today at A Class (Had a Venator A class for like four years lol) so I'm pretty stoked. Character matches perfect too.

Should "Expeditions" just be weaved into the main game? [Suggestion]

I'm pretty much starting again (again!). And I feel like doing the expedition right now feels a bit like cheating. I want to first build up my base, unlock the missions, ecxocraft, minatour etc - basically the stuff in the main game before getting a corvette as it seems like "jumping ahead".

Having not done any expeditions before I don't know too much about them other than they tend to unlock cool stuff.

Wouldn't it give the main game more depth though and dare I say meaning if they were all weaved into a new core game narrative so unlocked everything as you progress?

Sharing some feedback related to corvette gameplay [Discussion]

"Mom, it's my turn to appeal for working turret today!" /s

I really enjoyed 2 months of building, trying, and stealing other builders' ideas. Just here to share some feedback that also been submitted on zendesk.

Relatively larger corvettes need working turret to avoid breaking immersion in combat; automated / manned by optional (1) NPC crew / manned by human crew in MP. Based on some leads (2) I guess chances HG is already working on it. Simple search shows there are post calling for turrent every a few days, I'm just here to do my part: there are people dreaming cinematic (3) middle-sized ship fight like Rocinanite / Nebuchadnezzar.

For ship inventory to show up in trading post, the ship has to be docked on landing pad of the trading post. And corvette can't "connect" to trading post landing pad yet even if you managed to land on it. Of course I can just haul goods in my fully upgraded space suit - I'm just talking from role-playing perspective (4).

Adjust 3rd person camera according to the size of the corvette to avoid it blocking entire screen. So those colossus are enjoyable flying in 3rd person view (5).

Completely closed cockpit / gunner seat with screens connected to sensors, a lot of screens, big screens. Now to ensure the view is pleasant both in 3pv / fpv / VR, cockpit placement is quite limited. Completely closed cockpit / bridge will bring even more freedom in building.

Seamless window is a bit ugly from inside. The joint of 2 rounded / seamless windows is ugly from inside. And water is not rendering correctly through windows yet. Now I just prefer to make a stair to the open deck to enjoy (sometimes extreme) breeze and vista at the same time instead. But there are corvette designs that an open deck is not convenient. If seamless window and rounded window get some visual improvement that would be great.

ps: The way how...

Winged & Aquatic creatures [Discussion]

I love the idea of Taming creatures... However, I am not a fan of being shown a limited list of tamables while all of the cool ones everyone wants are either exclusive or downright not tamable at all.

I also understand that in reality not all creatures are going to be domesticatable. But this is a video game, and thats what the children of helios and aqaurius are for, the Vile Brood, the giant immortal sandworm thingy's and such.

It just sucks that on nearly every planet that has creatures there is a really cool one the game locks you out of having.

I am aware that mods are a thing for the game but i have a console, which locks me out of such content.

If anyone has discovered an aquatic creature or a winged creature that is tameable I would love to know.

Some questions... [Question]

Yeah, I couldn’t find an answer — or maybe I’m just low IQ and low effort, who knows. Anyway, here we go: I remember that we used to be able to orient the ship while summoning — kind of like rotating a part before building. Now it seems impossible. Am I missing something here, or did that feature vanish into a black hole? Do you guys manage to find the Trade Center or Colossal Archive without even scanning the planet? I don’t mean flying around for hours — I mean approaching the planet and spotting it within a minute or two. It feels like one of those things that just “clicks” after hundreds of hours of gameplay. I’ve tried it a few times and it actually kinda works — not perfectly, but I end up pretty close (within 3000u or so). Do you have a strategy for that, or is it just veteran brain magic? Did you enjoy the last expedition? I actually liked it — it felt balanced, fun, and not too grindy for once. Took me around 15 hours though :) How do you turn off the bottom-right screen texts? They get annoying after a while, especially when you already know what you’re doing and aren’t following the main story anymore. About the Exocraft upgrade screen in the Anomaly — the upgrades on the far left and right are barely visible, and almost impossible to click. Is there any reliable way to fix that? I have a long-played normal save. I switched to creative mode for a while and then went back. In any game mode, do you only see players who are in that same mode? And if you change the difficulty to a custom mode, do you only see players using the exact same custom settings?

That’s it for now. Thanks — and if any of you space veterans have tips, I’m all ears.

Is there still a per-save limit on base building, so if you want multiple bases you should make them small and simple as possible? [Question]

Does this still include terrain edits? Does this include my Freighter's "base"?

I was just trying to find out why placing flooring or walls on my base no longer auto-edited the terrain and all I could find is a suggestion that it was because I was using too much "base capacity". I've only been playing about 3 months now, and it occurs to me I have some old, early bases that are very wasteful in use of space/land as I thought limitations were per base, but reading it may be per save is now having me rethink my strategy on how to make bases more efficient and with less terrain edits.

Is this true? Should I spend a day going back and re-evaluating bases for space efficiency?

I was going for a “hunter-killer” vibe on this one. It’s funny that it’s a somewhat simple shape overall but I had to glitch a lot of the parts for them to fit together.

This doesn’t really have an interior, other than the cockpit. There are several engines stuffed inside the front and back, and multiple Phase Beams nestled in the front of the ship, with only one being visible underneath. When it fires, the front half of the ship glows blue, it adds a nice effect to it.

I built it a bit off center so I ended up having to increase the field of view for it to look right as it flies. I keep telling myself I’ll build small, sleek ships, and then I end with something larger than I expected. But it’s been fun fiddling with these ships. I’ll occasionally head to the Anomaly just to hang out and see what ships you guys have built.

How do you identify your bases in the list? [Question]

I have plenty of bases for resources. I named them by the resource and the screenshot is a nice landscape near the base. But I'm looking for a way for the screenshot to be about the resource. I would like to screenshot the icon of the resource but that doesn't really exist in-world. How do you identify your bases so you quickly know what they're about?

Is this game suitable, or too hard/complicated, to play together with my mum? [Question]

She's in her 60s, and a few years ago she was incredibly ill and stuck being unable to do anything for several months, so I introduced her to Minecraft.

She absolutely loved it, the exploration, freedom, the ability to be so creative designing her own base, and the ability to keep animals in their own carefully designed areas.

She was terrified of any enemies, but slowly grew confident in attacking them (sometimes) rather than running away. They were manageable and not too difficult for someone new to using a game controller, who still regularly had to stop and look at the buttons to remind herself what they did (this is still the case).

Since then she's absolutely loved: -Stardew Valley -Mario Kart 8 (with assistive steering & auto acceleration turned ON)

She's also enjoyed: -Slime Rancher -Unrailed & Overcooked (given a single role to stick to in the co-op)

I've considered giving the game a try myself first, and can still do so if necessary, but would ideally like to discover the game together alongside her. We've really enjoyed doing so for all the other games I've mentioned, and coming at them from the same starting point has been nice.

A couple of other questions: I have a MacBook Air M2 She has a Nintendo Switch 2

Am I correct in saying that as of a fairly recent update, we CAN play multiplayer together with these systems?

If so, do we always have to be online at the same time, or can we also individually play game in the same world we share in multiplayer?

I'd appreciate any insight at all to any of the above, or anything else you think it might be helpful for me to know!

Thanks everyone!

How do I install the Atlantid Drive in expedition? [Question]

I’m trying an expedition for the first time and I got the blueprint for that Atlantid Drive but it says it needs Indium, but the Wiki says it’s found near blue star systems, but I can’t warp to a blue star systems unless I install the Atlantid Drive????? So…I dunno what to do.

Castle Maximus is done, what do you think ? [Screenshot]

I’ve reached the 3,000-part limit, so it’s still a bit empty inside — but there are a few things to see for anyone who wants to visit :)

I might redesign the whole landing pad area, as well as the walls and roads leading to the castle, since they feel a bit too “messy” to me. On the other hand, it’s a nice walk up to the castle!

I’d love to hear your thoughts if you drop by. Someone from this community has already built a base nearby, so feel free to do the same and bring some life to the planet :)

P.S what should i expect if i decide to go over 3000 parts on this base ? Will my game crash more often ?

Help with Breach Expedition? [Question]

I used the wrong black hole and got thrown away for 1 million ly. Fortunately I completed most of the expedition missions. With just 2 missions left, where to find planets with tendrils? And where can I find water planet with the siren?

Accessing old expeditions [Question]

I guess I hit what's the equivalent of "end game" the other day and I'm now looking for structured things to do. I'm on PC so my first thought was hitting the expeditions I hadn't done, and while the mod seems simple enough, I'm concerned about messing up my save file. Just looking for some reassurance that it's relatively safe and I'm being too cautious on the topic.

Infested planet - Breach [Question]

Hey all, I'm at the end of my wits here. Have completed the expedition entirely apart from tendrils on phase 3. I cannot find an infested planet anywhere, been in 20+ systems. Can anyone help? Is it near any of the rendezvous points? Thanks!!

Expedition 20 [Question]

Will expedition 20 be coming back at the end of the year, as I’m away currently and don’t think I’ll be able to do the expedition before it runs out and really want the atlas parts

#

Underground Bases [Question]

I found a cave right next to my base on a frozen planet that is a great source of salvageable scrap. It is enormous!

Naturally, the James Bond Villain in me woke up and said, ‘GO FOR It’. I’m a new player so, I’m wondering if it’s even feasible.

Thoughts or pictures?

Thanks.

This is really irritating.. [Bug]

So there’s like 5 days left of the expo. And since it started I have been having all sorts of crazy glitches. I play on Steam Deck. Every time I fly to a planets surface, everything goes black. I can’t see a damn thing. Then all bases and corvettes have a rendering and texture issue and has no color to them. Parts missing all over the place and very dark. Lightning from electrical storms in space pop up as huge pixels. I’m completely unable to complete the expedition in this way! I already posting this in the megathread, and made a report to the zandesk. I looked all over Reddit and asked around and it bugs me out because it seems like I’m the only one with this issue! I have no idea what to do. I don’t want to miss this expedition. I really want those Atlas corvette parts…
