Frustrations from a new/returning group [Discussion]

I'll try to keep it short and sweet. If anyone has suggestions/solutions to any of these issues, we would LOVE to hear about them!

Missions constantly resetting. If you selection an active mission, get in your ship and fly off... it will often change it to something else seemingly for "fun." And it's not that the other missions are updating and auto-switching focus, it happens even if no other missions have any updates or changes.

Difficulty in accessing friend bases. Sometimes they show up when friends are offline, other times they don't. Sometimes they show up as a portal destination, sometimes they don't. Doesn't matter if you build a base on the same planet or not, its a roll of dice if any of this works.

Constantly losing control of character or having UI lock down to do an animation of some sort...When you click on a radar tower/save beacon, when you land on a new planet, when you interact with some base computers... and more... The main annoyance here is that it happens CONSTANTLY, once you've seen it 50x on 50 planets you're over it.

When interacting with some objects such as base computer, it will return to your player view as if you have control, but you don't actually have control.... and it just sits there. Seems to be related to giving rewards? However you CAN activate your gun, which has resulted in 1-shotting ourselves sometimes with a grenade when trying to regain control of our characters.

Teleporting to bases randomly decides between putting you at the portal or the base computer. You can't move base computer (as far as I can tell) so trying to build to ensure you don't end up in some crazy storm (and if you are away from computer while game loads... end up dead when you return).

What happens to your spaceship if you die in combat? [Question]

I see some people asked it around 5 years ago.

But I just want to make sure, with all the updates since then, that it's still the same today.

Do you really lose all your inventory? And of top of that the ship is also damaged?

I have played this game totally relaxed enjoying collecting stuff peacefully up until now, when I was suddenly attacked by two ships. Luckily I shot them down.

So how can I continue playing this game not stressing over the thought of me losing a lot of materials ?

Should I put all my stuff in containers on a planet with a teleport, so if I need something i just always go to that "storage"/"stock"-planet?

I would like to avoid space combat completely, but I guess that is not possible...

What do you think is better than chlorine market crashing? [Discussion]

I feel like im missing something.

People always talk about activated indium farms to make mad bank.

But I dont understand why that seems so popular when one can just make 9 stacks of chlorine and do a market crash.

The only draw back to chlorine market crashing is many markets dont sell chlorine.

So otherwise, why do people tend to trend more towards these farms?

Yet another "What I want added to NMS" thread. [Discussion]

Because I, as someone who has never developed a game, know best how to continue with that! In all seriousness though, it's just a nice little fantasy to think about what could be- I don't intend it as a critique of what already exists at all.

There's two big things (aside from stability and bug fixes) that I think would ramp this game's longevity up to incredible levels, at least for me as a player.

1.) Inter-universal Trade Network

I think the biggest thing that could make the game more immersive (again, at least for me) would be the ability to trade between players- through some sort of analogue to Auction Houses from most MMO's. Not really so much for resources and whatnot, but I'm thinking trade of ships, multitools, custom-bred creature eggs, perhaps even land rights for builders!

Perhaps a weird comparison, but the one game I continually return to is the Minecraft Pokemon mod, Pixelmon. The main reason is because of the economic gameplay- while catching and battling Pokemon is nice, breeding the "perfect" one to set up a market selling them is what is really enjoyable.

I think this could bring a lot of fun and depth to us players who especially enjoy system-hopping while looking for ships, multitools, etc. Don't get me wrong, it's still fun currently. But it would feel "weightier" and like it had more purpose if there was an in-game ability to share fun finds. While I love our online community and how we all come together to share glyphs of cool and interesting things, in-game support of this would make it feel all more legitimized.

2.) More reason to farm.

Right now setting up farms is fun, as it gives yet further purpose to building. However, beyond making a quick buck there seems to be little reason to farm. And with better money-making options, even that feels lackluster. I'd love to see the cooking system expanded to utilize...

Base rendering problems ?? [Question]

Anyone else experiencing major rendering problems when visiting friends bases? I'm on ps5 and he's on ps4 pro. He came to my base first a few days ago, and things were just popping in and out. Its not a HUGE base, but does have a decent amount of parts. Hung around for a while thinking thats things would load in completely but problem continued. I was wondering if it was because of him being on ps4. But today I'm at his new base thats fairly large and so many pieces are just popping in and out ; just more rendering problems. Hung around for a bit again hoping things would load completely and solidify but nope. And some items never load in at all. Some floor pieces, wall pieces, and other decorations etc. Is this something theyve talked about addressing? I'm hoping they do something about this bc base building / sharing is a big thing in this game for me and for bases not to even load right for others just blows.

Does anyone know how to make this game work better on the Quest 2 with the link cable? [Question]

I used to own an older HTC Vive and No Man’s Sky was amazing on it. I upgraded to a Quest 2 which has been a major improvement for most of my games. However, I can’t bare to play No Man’s Sky anymore. The graphics are awful and the game is slow. If I try to turn up the graphics my game gets stuck from being too slow.

Anyone else have this issue and fix it? So far the only solution I’ve thought of is to simply not play the game anymore, which makes me sad.

Note: I can’t play the non-VR version on my computer because it makes me super motion sick for some reason.

New player here, overwhelmed. [Question]

I like to min-max a bit but I'm finding very inadequate information. How do I know when I should swap ships/multi-tools or just keep the one I have? Which planets are worth building a base on and which aren't? What is the most time-efficient for your buck ways early on to get units and nanites? Same as above, but non-early. What are the best ways to get money, period? What should I be prioritizing early on? What are the best weapons for multi-tool and ship. (I don't want to hear it's just a matter of preference, surely someone's crunched the numbers/performance tested by now?) Upgrades are a bit overwhelming with the stacking and whatnot. What are the best upgrades? How the hell do you beat the "practice language skills" thing with aliens? It feels like it's entirely random.

And please don't tell me, "Just have fun, do whatever you like, that's what the game is about."

It's great that that's how you see the game. I appreciate that. I like that players can play how they want. Exploring is a lot of fun. But I like to feel that whatever I'm doing I'm doing it well. That's how I get the most enjoyment out of games. I enjoy some level of optimal play.

Thanks in advance!

Quest 16/16 After talking to Atlas forever teleporting forever and ever and ever, have to force close game. [Bug]

Title sums it up.

Go through the portal.

Talk to Atlas.

At the end you start to get teleported away, well it goes on forever and ever and never does anything.

Honestly, I wish I could just abandon this whole quest line, every single step has been a buggy, janky, sloppy mess that has forced me to jump through crazy hoops to "fix" it so I can continue.

I've left it teleporting now for more than ten minutes and it still hasn't done anything. I wish I knew something, like a progress bar or something that might help me to understand why this hunk of poo engine is spinning forever and ever not getting anywhere.

I guess I'm stuck to just ignore the main quest line since it's a buggy mess and won't progress. Which is fine, I was having much more fun doing other things anyway.

The one thing I want to see most in this game [Discussion]

I wish the water physics was a lot more dynamic. Water always looks so flat and static. I wish there were things like waves crashing against shorelines and seeing choppy waves in the middle of oceans, or if you're flying lower to the water there could be some wake that's left from the ship. Maybe even some whirlpools here and there.

Repeatable bug, deleting the base teleporter deletes nearby base objects (XB1X 3.67) [Bug]

Has anyone tried building with the teleporter lately? Just placing it is a hassle because the “Object Too Close” radius is suddenly like 30 feet, and when you delete or move the teleporter AT ALL, every placed object (besides walls) within that radius get deleted along with the teleporter.

Here is an interesting idea: Functional Shops/Businesses that you can setup and manage on planets [Suggestion]

So I got this idea from No Mans Sky twitter when I saw a build of a little shop that seemed like a coffee shop. Now when I saw this I just thought cool but today I was just thinking of more ways to interact with aliens and thats when I thought of it: Shops that are functional.

The way these shops work are pretty similar to Frontiers in terms of upgrades, however they can be custom built and you can have way more than just one. In fact you could even make a shopping center or mall if you really wanted to each with functionality.

There would be a whole new side mission line called Entrepreneur that tells you the info and what you can do. In terms of upgrades, its basically Unit and Nanite based. There would be different forms of shops such as drinks, food, etc. There would be a new type of landing pad that only aliens can use. Havent quite thought of details on how customers would be brought in but perhaps a new variant of ships that work as taxis? They could bring aliens from different Frontiers across the universe to it. Of course all randomized. That part can be worked on.

On the more technical side of thing, you would unlock a business module sorta like the base one that you place to let you start building. You get a smallish raidus that you can upgrade slowly. If you are satisfied with your first store you can buy a 2nd store slot. It can either be connected or just in the radius.

In terms of how it runs, you can either run it yourself or hire aliens to run it. It could be a x to x time for open or a 24/7. You of course would have to pay your workers and the maintenance fees but if there is surplus like Frontiers, you get to keep it. Would probably work out at the Anomaly but a whole new section for unlockables would be in that area that either uses Nanites or Salavged Data. There would also be...

PSA: Locating Hotspots [Information]

Pretty sure everyone has the general idea on how to use the Survey Analysis Visor. Did you know you can determine the direction of a nearby hotspot? True. Land on any planet and bring up your Survey Analysis tool. If you are getting the message " ... No Hotspot Nearby ...", begin to scan slowly in one direction or the other in a circle - stand in place and do a 360 degree turn. Now pay attention to the sound of the survey device. It makes a louder noise when it is pointed away from hotspots. If you are looking in the direction of a hotspot, it makes a subtler sound -- similar to the noise it makes when you know you're headed in the right direction. You should select the right type of hotspot when doing this to be pointed in the right direction.

Another tip: If you are looking for a power spot (for example) and your survey tool is going bonkers, switch to one of the other types. You might actually be closer to one of them.

So .... how do I delete my base when it's inside an active volcano? [Question]

I needed some Phosphorus so teleported to my mining base that should have had 5K+ Phosphorus on a S-grade hotspot waiting for me. At some point it changed to a C-grade Basalt hotspot? So I go delete the base only to find out the now deleted base was inside an active volcano. So I can't take my ship out as it just plays pinball with the walls, and the volcano walls seem immune to the terrain manipulator. The only way both in and out seem to be via teleporter?

Anyone encounter lag in filling in internal decor in a small station? PS5 [Question]

Built a small base near settlement - 3x5. One row of window walls, angled roof parts, and in it, a large refiner, 4 candelabra blooms, a fish tank, a save point, a galactic terminal, a nutrient processor, a large round teleporter, a couple boxes and a short-distance teleporter to the Overseer’s office, 180 units away.

When’re I use the short term teleporter, it takes the PS5 roughly 10 seconds to generate the interior. The floor and sides are there, but the blooms, the boxes, the fish tank and the save point all materialize 10 seconds later.

Or on my freighter, where I installed several fleet command rooms, then went to give orders, and when I came back to the area where those rooms are - every doorway opened out into space. Being a “vet” of the dead-by-dropping-through-the-floor on the freighter, this gave me quite a turn. I ended having to reload, as even going down into the hangar and coming back up didn’t clear it out. Luckily I had a save point right there.

This started only recently - like today…

A few notes on the Superformula [Suggestion]

All,

A few notes on the Superformula. It was originally developed to deal with symmetrical shapes in nature, but can generate an infinite number of regular and irregular shapes in two or three dimensions (and even higher). It. has now been fully accepted as a scientific methodology and has been embedded into mathematics under the name Gielis Transformations. Already 15 years ago we applied it also in graphical software and displayed it amongst others at Siggraph.

Recently we built a database of different scientific papers referencing the original article in the American Journal of Botany. One can read more on https://researchoutreach.org/articles/superellipses-superformula-impact-gielis-transformations/

Also in education it is being used, and a video from a Mexican mathematics teacher can be found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AazmfxBsZEU&t=60s

He has many other beautiful videos on maths.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtn-XzkRhisBnXSiOzRSnAw/videos

From a mathematical point of view it is a generalization of the Pythagorean theorem, and a few parameters suffice to generate an immense . This and many other aspects are detailed in The Geometrical Beauty of Plants (Atlantis Springer) with a review at the European Math Society https://euro-math-soc.eu/review/geometrical-beauty-plants

We proposed a cooperation on the SF, because we know we are much further advanced mathematically than simply as formula with a few parameters. Unfortunately this did not materialize, but the world is much bigger than games only, just as teh Superformula is only one part of a larger mathematical toolbox...

Does NMS even run on PS4 anymore? [Discussion]

I’ve gone through a very love-hate relationship with NMS after buying into the hype early on — loving it for about 10 hours and then just dropping, then picking it up after a few updates and falling in love with all over again in VR —but from the videos I see y’all posting, looks like most ppl are running on PCs, and considering how lush the game has become, I’m skeptical it could even run well on my used PS4 Pro considering how much it already glitched when the universe was mostly a barren wasteland.

Any PS4 Pro users here that can speak to it, because I (want to) love this game but it’s been hard considering its technical challenges, even with the leaps and bounds in content that came with the updates.

Basic game mechanics and QOL improvements for NMS [Discussion]

Been playing since day 1. Overall, I love the game. Literally over a thousand of hours of fun. I am 98% satisfied with this game. I have never played a game for five years. Maybe that is why I want to see it be greater than it is. For me, almost every time an update introduces great new content, it's fun for a few weeks, but it never gets fully fleshed out, or is implemented in a way that seems like the bare minimum to count as game material, and is never fully realized.

These are things added to the game that seem like they could use more love. Unfinished. Or just annoying.

Living Ship

It takes a week of tedious exercises to aquire this second rate ship. It cannot be upgraded to compete with normal ships. Almost useless except for black holes and trans-galactic travel. Is that all they're for? I can get a junk shuttle to do the same job for a lot less effort.

Settlements

After a weeks they have grown as far as they can, and produce far fewer resources than I can make with industrial mining units. Seems like a fertile groundwork for further development, but will we ever see that?

Cooking

You can make decent nanites with cooking at the Anomaly, but only offer one product at a time, which takes way too long to bother.

The Galactic Map

Still no way to mark more than a single star system, no way to index, order, or make notes on the map. No way to mark down your own favorite routes. A top-down overview with history (routes taken) would be a great help.

Base Building

The addition of new parts is a tremendous leap forward for base building. But I still need to resort to unwieldy glitch-building techniques (of which I have no mastery) to rotate building parts to make the shapes I want. Why only rotate on one axis? Why can't I make a floor tilt 45 or 90 degrees on it's side with the tools given?

Setting up a Cadmium mine in an odd world [Question]

Since there is an entire concept of Cadmium systems, I figured I should probably secure a good source of Cadmium for the future (maybe I'm wrong?).

So I noticed a A-class deposit of Cadmium but there is three things that bother me and I wanted to check before trying and wasting too much resources in a base :

  • The deposit is underwater (well, underblood), so I'm not even sure it will work (the previous deposit I found was on the side of a mountain, where I couldn't even build)

  • The planet type is [CENSORED], so maybe there is a surprise for me later

  • I found a giant worm, and I'm not sure it won't destroy the base at some point (I didn't see any destruction on its path and it looks like a generic animal, but unlike everything else in the game so far it was making the ground tremble)

Should I still try or is it not worth it?

For some reason Apollo (yes, the main quest Apollo) is part of the citizen dispute I have to resolve in my settlement. When I choose one option, the game crashes. I have no idea how that can happen. Pretty funny and intriguing, but if it borks my settlement it's a bit sad ! Has anyone ever heard of that ?

Is there a point to settlements beyond pumping out a few random items? [Question]

Hi all,

Have to say my initial impressions on the settlements was a bit meh, but then they really grew on me. I've got quite a sprawing town now that I've become attached to and in recent nights have finally been able to repay the debt.

It feels like ive reached the limit of building opportunities though as I'm only getting settler requests now.

But my question - my settlement now produces two items: Some item I forget the name of but a stack of 20 nets around 300k credits - which is not bad, but given what i can make through normal actiivties, is nothing.

The other item though - a stack of marrow bulbs which sells for almost nothing.

Is there any control over the output? How did it arrive at these two objects? Have i any influence over what's being made here or is it just luck of the draw?

Now the debts paid off and it's just the output of these two items - once every 24 hours incidnetally, im really wondering if it's time to just leave the place be?

Ok NMS. I give up. [Bug]

This game has finally annoyed me enough to delete. Playing survival and it absolutely refuses to show me a Korvax scientist no matter how many warps, re-saves, black holes or mission resets I do. I spent HOURS. I don’t have time for this. I have 30 Korvax space stations to choose from but this bullshit game insists I need to grind out another endless series of warps to find a non-existent scientist. The final straw was me getting sick of it and the damn game teleports me 5000 feet in the air above my HOME BASE and of course I die from impact and lose all my inventory and get no gravestone to retrieve. By the way this was the 2nd glitch death of the day and the last one was equally as expensive. I’m over it.

Planet Re-generation Problem [Build]

Over the last few updates I have been noticing a decrease in the time it takes planets to auto-regenerate. Though this is generally a good thing to refurbish/reset resources, plants, and other ecological destructions caused by building local bases; it also destroys the base you have spent many, many hours, and untold massive resources to build up and develop.

Even though when I start to plan and build and think I am building "on grade level" ; I still have seen many of my bases destroyed by being partially or totally buried. I do not wish to continuously clear the land over and over again each time I want to play the game. I am becoming frustrated with this double-edged sword of the game's auto-mechanics.

Is there a way to either turn off the auto-regen feature within the confines of a base, or a way to build that would not create a devastating partial or full burial of a base. I play on either pc or steam format. I could really use some suggestions. Thanks.

No point in ship types at the moment. [Suggestion]

or am I missing something.

​

Been playing solid for a week or there about's now and the main thing I have noticed is that regarding ships, there really isn't much point to it all, haulers are only haulers by name, does anyone actually use them to move things around ? or do you just stuff your inventory .

Explorers are the same, same for fighters.

​

Not sure exactly would should change, but here are some ideas.

​ unlink the storage box's 0-9 from ground to space, this makes the need for a hauler at all 100% redundant so its a bad mechanic in my view, even tho I use it all the time. these box's should be ground or air linked, I get that they cant give us unique inv per box it would be insane to save all that data. but they need to unlock the box's in my base from the ones in space. Fighters should have their cargo nuked out of existance, give them 5 for s class, 4 for a, b gets 3, and c gets 2 in the main tab for ammo and fuel, their technology tab should be limited to modules only, fighters should be used for shooting at ships not for daily trucking.

On top of this I would love to see some bigger space fights, or more involved I hate to say the words boss fight but it sums up what I am thinking, we would need a good reason for being in a fighter, something rewarding to the wallet or item wallet. Haulers should get an equal weapon nerf and a handling nerf, give them a enough slots to fit a single gun but make them turn so bad they cant dog fight, their meant to be trucks in space not be able to take on 5 pirates or sentinels.

Haulers should get attacked more or less frequently based on the value their hauling, this would give us a reason to have those chips in our cargo that call in system fighter support if we get attacked, so you would have those plus good shields to fend of pirates.

Haulers in a group could have fighter support from...

Expedition thoughts [Discussion]

I'm a fairly new player and have finished my first Expedition. Here are some thoughts:

More intense. It was a more intens survival experience, even on normal mode. I really liked liked that, especially after having mastered the mechanics of the game. And the planet was a place your really, really wanted to leave.

Connection with your main story. I wished the expedition experience could somehow be linked to my main save, that this was actually an expedition branching off your main story. I understand that this is technically another game mode, but maybe some sort of export/import option could make it feel more like a branching off from your main story. If you could bring your character into the Expedition and then bring your gains back to your main save, this could maybe help for those of us wanting that link.

Strange things. Out of the blue (or should I say the dark gritty green?), I suddenly had a Minotaur and a Roamer very early in the expedition. I have no idea how that happened, they just appeared. Was it something that happened to many? Was it some sort of gift from another player? I thought you only could receive items, though. Anyway, this helped tremendously in the beginning, but also took away some of the feeling of achievement.

So many players. I play my main save with multiplayer enabled, but stick to my own path. It was refreshing to see so many others on the same planet, but also a bit messy. And for the rocket man achievement I chose to use one of the player's helpful mountaintop bases. A bit mixed feelings about how this all adds up, so I might choose to play the next expedition without multiplayer enabled.

What happens now? So, I have saved the finished expedition at the final rendezvous, but what happens next to this character, it's inventory and gameplay? Can I play further on that save? Can the items be transferred somehow? I have collected the rewards on...

Chlorine cloning glitch - now I have over a billion units [Bug]

Hey guys! I’m sure many of you are aware that you can get 6 chlorine out of a refiner if you refine oxygen and chlorine at a ratio of 2:1. So, I set up a base to do this for a while, see how much money I can get and it’s pretty effective; 4 minutes to make stacks of just under 4100, each stack sells for 2.5 mil.

Anyway, I’m doing this a day or two and then, on the third day, I took chlorine stack out from the machine and accidentally closed the machine before activating it again so I went in to start the process and… the full stack was there again. I picked it up, left the machine, came back, and it was full again. As fast as I could access the machine and pick up the chlorine, I was making 2.5 mil a pop. Fill up my suit, storage, and freighter and we’re looking at hauls of about 400 mil. The glitch has since corrected itself and every attempt to recreate it has failed but I’m sitting at about 1.6 billion units and I have 5 storage units full to the brim with chlorine so… I think that’s okay.

What I didn’t sell or store, I gave away to people in the nexus 😂 6 million units can go a long way in the early game.

Anyway, that’s it. Thought it was interesting, curious if anyone else has had a similar glitch! And if you’re looking for a few million units quick, throw some oxygen and chlorine in a medium or large refiner and make fat stacks of chlorine, selling for about 6 million per 9999.

Help! I'm stuck in The First Traveler quest - not the waypoint disappearing glitch [Bug]

So I'm at the part in The First Traveler questline where you speak to -null-, go to his selected observatory, then go to the crashed freighter. But I got stuck (waypoint under map and freighter spawned but can't use location scanner) so I warped away and reset the mission in a different system. Then I went back to the original system and reset it again so it'd be on my original planet. NOW both -null- and the crashed freighter are marked on my map and when I go talk to -null-, he speaks as if I haven't already asked him where the observatory is. He then directed me to an observatory and I went, interacted with the terminal and extracted the coordinates but it just says "nothing found" and changes my quest objective to "find the crashed freighter". So I go to the freighter and the waypoint is AGAIN under the map but this time the actual freighter didn't even spawn! Now I can't reset the mission no matter how far I warp or black hole away. Haven't found anyone else online with this bug so any help at all would be appreciated!

P.S. I'm on psvr

Update: Got the mission to reset correctly in multiple other systems, but they all end the same way, with a waypoint under the map and a freighter that, when approached, looted, or you try to scan it, doesn't count for the mission. I've even looted a completely random crashed freighter because others have fixed their games that way but it didn't do anything to change the situation...

Exocraft and how to use them [Question]

So here is the thing, I love the exocrafts, they look cool, they're responsive - except maybe the minotaur - they can mine and shoot lasers and you can even customize them with different paints!! But I don't know what to use them for...

​

Mining? That's probably the best answer, but I honestly don't see a difference between doing it with an exocraft and doing it with my multitool. Going to mine ressources near your base far enough that it's annoying to go by jetpack and not far enough that you'd use your starship... that's a pretty niche use. Having its own inventory space is quite nice when going farming a specific ressource.

​

Fighting? I don't think so, depending on the multitool, I've had much better result with damage output outside of my exocraft. Also they don't have a specific armor/health, which is a bit weird imho, so you don't get any protection by going in your exocraft during a tough fight.

​

Exploring? As far as I know the fastest exocraft is the motorcycle Pilgrim with a 19u\s speed with little bursts of boost. Once you have a self-replenishing engine on your starship, your exocraft becomes pretty useless when it comes to exploring.

​

Scanning? Yes, it's absolutely awesome, with two technological updates on the scanner module (both B and A upgrades are complementary and offer different scanning options) they offer so much in terms of scanning. The minotaur being able to scan distress signal is an amazing feature.

​

So that sums up how I use my exocrafts... I get out of my starship, summon the exocraft, scan something, jump back into my starship to go to my new destination. Scanner bots really and I'm a bit sad about it, and hoping someone in the comments will tell me I'm wrong.

The car and motorcycle are awesome and decent to travel with. The floater can cross water, that's nice. The nautilus is probably very...

Before Frontiers, I was ship hunting. Spent days looking for this ship in S-class. It never appeared. [Discussion]

Then the update came. My settlement is in the system I was hunting the ship, so I started to spend a lot of time there. Still, no sight of an S-class, so I worked on the A-class I had secured a couple of days before.

Upgraded to S-class, farmed storage augmentations, upgraded to 48+21, bought S-class tech modules, found the shields to be a bit weak, farmed X-class modules, managed to install a couple above S-class rating. The ship became a great fighter.

But... it was bound to happen eventually, right? So today, in a quick visit to the Space Station, my once-hunted ship lands... an original S-class, with great stats.

...

You all know what happens next. Time to work on her... again.

Why can't I get Quicksilver missions? [Bug]

I've noticed some online content doesn't seem to work for me; a lot of the Space Anomaly NPC's don't refresh their interactions despite telling me to come back "another day", I can't join Expeditions, and I never see missions rewarding Quicksilver offered in the Anomaly mission console. Anyone know what might be causing this issue? I'm on PC, thanks.

What am I supposed to do? [Question]

I need to build a teleporter. I need ferrite dust. There isn’t any around. I’m on a marshy planet. I see some rock outcroppings, but I need an upgraded laser thing. I just walk around in circles and can’t find crap. All the mineable rocks have been cleared. I have no more storage. I don’t know what to drop. I summoned my ship to maybe fly that around looking for rocks, but now have no more fuel and my ship and base are super far away from each other. About the only progress I make is going to the same knowledge stones near my base each time I restart the game to learn new words. At least I don’t have to store these.

Is this the game? Is it just a slog the whole time? I thought it was patched and made fun? I thought there were people and aliens to interact with? People say, “go sell stuff”, but I can’t find where to do this and now can’t even fly.

Constant Mining Laser Crackle Effect [Bug]

Grah! I'm completely dumbfounded as to how I have such a persistent glitch across my 3 saves, yet am unable to find much information on it. Has anyone else experienced this, or is anyone able to provide the correct wording so I'm able to submit a coherent bug report? The mining laser sparkle crackle effect refuses to leave my view, it seems like it's attached to me. I'm plagued by a purple aura, and that crackling effect in my view and noise no matter what I do or where I go. It's even persistent in my ship. I experience this across my saves, it starts pretty quickly, and just will not stop. It's like I have a sparkler fixed to my helmet and it's driving me crazy. Absolutely game breaking for me. Is anyone else experiencing this? Any remedy? 600hr player watching the Expedition progress without me because I'm blinded by a firework in my helmet.

Extracting minerals off base site [Question]

Hello community,

I am trying to finish the expedition and get all the badges and stuff and one of them is to extract 1,000 units of minerals, however the only two sites near where I’ve laid base are outside of my base building zone (also one is occupied with the owner not allowing players to make modifications) so my question is, how do I complete this? I tried laying down another base computer at the second site I found but obviously you can only have one base computer. Feels like those who have set up base unknowingly far from a hotspot are SOL when it comes to this one.

Should PvP be removed? Or at least set to default of disabled? [Question]

So as a long time player (day 1 actually) I've never heard any interest or desire in having a PvP mode but we have it, why? Cause Hello Games wants to give us options which is great.

My point is that a lot of new players have been posting lately about griefers just killing them in PvP and not knowing they can disable it.

It seems that the only people that enjoy the PvP mode are the jerks ruining the experience for others.

So my question to the community is, "should PvP mode be removed entirely or default to being disabled?"

I believe it should be set as a default to disabled and if we can agree maybe reach out to Hello Games since they do listen.

Maximum "active" Upgrade Modules [Information]

As the game says "you cannot have more than THREE upgrades active for the same technology subsystem so you must remove any surplus to restore power and be active". (I position all the "categories" together side by side for the "connection bonus") And i realised that after ofcourse i couldnt stack more than 3 mods for my "movement system"(jetpack). So after some time spend testing and comparing which triplet to keep, (i have 3 'S' and 3 'X' ones) i noticed that by moving all 3 spare ones to "technology tab" i could use all 6 of them!! I moved all the "sprint distance" mods to technology tab just to confirm it and yes, i take all the huge bonus on sprint distance combined with the other 3 ones on the "general" tab!

Companion Update Dreams [Suggestion]

What updates would you like to see for companions? It may not be my first choice in content to flesh out but that got me thinking what could make it more engaging.

I was thinking a base item that lets them be constantly spawned there would be a nice touch, a way to set a “guard dog” out front or keep a pet around the house. People could even build zoos showing off their collection of pets and that would be something that might make a base worth visiting in its own right. I’ve heard people suggest player run storefronts and it would be neat to run a kennel of sorts too in the same way.

When is my settlement done building? [Question]

So, it's been a while since there's been any "construction opportunities" in my settlement, even though not all the stats are 100%. Far from, with only 51 residents and 48% happiness.

So far I have:

• 4 landing pads

• 3 towers

• 2 "utility" buildings

• 1 saloon

• 2 market places

Is that it? I never saw building any residences as an option, though I know that's suppose to be a thing. There still seems to be a fair amount of blank land around the settlement, and NPCs often walk through it, in what I'd assume are patterns for future buildings.

But all I've had is visitors, conflicts, expedition requests and policy decisions. No more building for a few days.

I'm wondering in particular because I'm planning on building a "overseer mansion" as a base, but don't want to interfere with any new buildings that might pop up.

So, how do I know when overall settlement construction is done?

My assumption was, that I landed on a planet completely out of reach for help? When I start my ship and fly into space, wow! It is filled with asteroids? What is going on here? Why should I build a base on some random planet? Shouldn‘t I go back home or something? Should I continue the game to see how everything ends up in a story? UI btw is simply horrible.

Help ! [Question]

So I’m trying to start a farm of activated indium, I’m at the planet, I’ve got all the require technology, I’ve got all the resources to build it but nothing comes up on the screen when I try to build the technology, is this a common problem ? I play the game thru Xbox game pass, does that matter? Up until now I’ve been able to do pretty much anything, I’m just trying to get a lot more money, more than I’ll need to and I saw a yt video that said this was the best way besides multiplying chlorine.

I can't give my Station Override to my other save, can I? [Question]

I've been listening to the online folks saying not to use the Station Override yet so I'm hanging on to it but I was wondering, can I possibly give it to myself in my other save file?

Is it possible to put the Override into a storage unit on a planet, make note of the coordinates, then load my other save (my main save with three hundred hours) and fly to those coordinates and pick up the Station Override out of the storage unit?

Tried Googling this and didn't find much info.

Bug for settlement [Bug]

I tried looking for this in the bug post and I'll post it in it as well. I found a settlement which started a quest for my first settlement. It then told me to go talk to the other settlers and investigate. Problem is... the settlers are literally neck deep in the ground and I'm unable to interact with them. (Literally their heads are the only thing outside the ground) I've already attempted to: -Leave and come back via travel and teleporting to the space station -tried to terrain them out, but unable to due to a boundary -shoot them -try to move as close as possible to try to initiate a convo -the quest will not let me abandon it or move it to another location -there is one settler that is not glitched but he offers no help I'm new to no mans sky and if there has been a fix discovered for this please let me know, or maybe suggest another route.

Help with a mechanic [Question]

Heres the situation. Imagine 3 light blocks stacked on top of each other. Each block is rigged to light at a different beat. (1-3 and the 4th beat is no lights) so 3 beat switches tied to beatbyte device. Now the beat switches are tied to wall switches that will turn the beat switch on and off. This is all fine and dandy, but the question is, how would i get it to store the value of the light with the beat switches off via the wall switch. That is to say, how would i get only the light to light up that was on when the switch was turned off?

No connection to multiplayer server since I started playing [Bug]

IDK if this should be in the bugs section, sorry for that.

Steam.

Started playing 2 weeks ago ( 70 hours in). Never seen another player, just bases.

Thought that was normal so I went on with the game until today I just knew that you can see others in the anomaly. Went to double check network options and there was the message.

Tried solutions from several older posts on reddit and steam:

  • Set PC clock to automatic time zone

  • Went into 3xpermintal mode and back

  • Added exclusions to antivirus and firewall (Windows Defender)

  • Turned off Windows defender all together

​

P.S: I live in Egypt, So maybe it's some kind of weird ISP blocking issue, but since they are blocking VPNs as well I can't test with a VPN

Inability for a party to use one orbital summoning station has become increasingly annoying each content patch I hope for coop improvements. [Discussion]

Not much to add to the title.

Every content patch I keep hoping will be coop focused or improved and added to.

The groundwork is there with anomaly missions. Hell even expeditions seem like a good experiment to learn from and we already have linked base progression for questing in the game with that build a base one. But it doesn’t carry over to individual quests outside for some reason.

The feature just stopped progressing.

Playing with a friend on a new character from the word go makes me a little more annoyed that we have to carry the materials to every planet we visit and want to stick around on. But it does make me appreciate how much better the Galaxy is with someone by your side.

Glitched lush planet in Calypso that is partly desaturating colors and shifting midtones to black [Discussion]

This is the first one of these planets I have seen, and some searches haven't turned up a similar effect (though that could just be that I am not using the right terms).

The planet (or rather, moon) in question is Emoret IX, a lush biome in Calypso in the yellow-star Ugildfo system. Emoret is not a paradise planet due to high sentinel activity (it's a "flourishing moon") though it does not have storms, and it has a bubble exotic subbiome.

As you fly in for a landing, the colors become partly desaturated (including the interior of your ship), and the midpoint of the light/dark levels shifts towards dark. The end result is very black shadows with little to no shadow detail, muted colors, and an overall dim landscape. Kind of like a bad scan of a photographic print with the contrast dialed up. Or someone who has discovered Instagram for the first time.

This looks almost normal in the daytime when viewing trees, but you can tell something is off.

Dark, dark shadows, and a dim landscape.

Where it really becomes obvious is on structures:

Dude. Lay off the Instragram filters.

And at night, or indoors in dim lighting, the planet is next to impossible to navigate.

Night view. Good for stumbling around in the dark.

Just curious if anyone else has run into one of these, and if so, where. These are the sorts of shenanigans I normally expect from a red, blue, or green star, but this is a yellow, so it's a bit unexpected.

Derelict Freighter Storage Crate (additional storage at your base?) [Screenshot]

Been trying to confirm if these buildable containers are just decorative. They're interactive, and I thought I read somewhere they have 20 storage slots (though they may have been referring to the standard storage containers).

In any case, when I Search them the lid opens, but there's no additional menu or obvious next step. All I can do is reclose the lid. There's plenty of other Decorative NonInteractive Crates in the menue that clearly identify themselves as such. This one says its for storage. Haven't seen any other posts on this, so I thought I'd start one. Thanks in advance!

Note: There's also an interactive Briefcase, Locker and Footlocker. They all behave the same as the crate. In essence, all of these units act as they do on a Derelict Freighter, so they're likely just decorative.

Game aborts when shooting land creatures from your ship - Xbox series X [Bug]

I am SOOOOO over this bug. It's been around for years, and it really pisses me off. It's happened on the xbone, xbonex and the XSX.

Scenario - hover around the planet surface shoot creatures (I only use the Positron Ejector - if that makes any difference), game aborts.

There is only a small chance that this happens but when it does, it is so hard to stop it constantly occurring after restarting the game. Right now I have restarted a number of times and as soon as I shoot a creature, game aborts. I even flew into space, summoned the Nexus, teleported to my base in another system, got into my ship found a creature, shoot... abort. Restarted the xbox, started the game found a creature, shoot... abort.

We all know how fragile the game audio is, and I believe it's related to this. When you shoot creatures, the audio will sometimes go quiet, but I could be wrong.

As a first time player. [Discussion]

Okay so i caved into the whole "this game is getting positive review so time to try it circle" and i have to say I'm not impressed with a gameplay room.

I have 13h on this game and its all the same stuff over and over again take missions from the space station, do your shopping, go to the point of interest and proceed to collect the nineties or blast the sentinels from orbit , land and raid some random bases that look all the same. I really expect more out of the procedurally generated world, i mean spore did it even better by having randomized alien structures made by players and some by bots.

Honestly seeing creatures that look exactly as the ones iv seen on my first and second planet look exactly the same as those on top Reddit posts makes me feel scammzed, by that i mean lack of variation in creatures.

Can we talk about distress beacons for a moment, why would i invest my time in fixing some random ship i don't have materials for (lets no lie the requirements are kinda ridiculous) if i have the money from selling swarm eggs and farming carbon from what i assume to be bugged green crystals.

Lets not get started on the small swarm-infested bases. Why are those creatures such well non issue? They should spit poison at me way more, i shouldn't be able to avoid them just by jetpacking to the top of the base and blasting them from atop it. they rarely even spit at me, they just stare at me as i blast them in the face while they don't do anything about it. Give them wings or fix their god damn ai.

Why are crashed frigate ships soo boring? two big cargo boxes leaking radiation and that's it ? or did i miss something about that? pleas help. Cause that would be kinda disappointing.

Lets talk ship variations? Why arent they randomized way more? at least from what i saw in three systems and multiple trading posts and space stations. They arent all super bad but again i would...

The Settlers Mission Bug (Game breaking) [Bug]

Me and My friend decided to play this game about 4 days ago and recently we got the option to be the Overseer of two different settlements after both doing this I realised that the mission was marking towards him and then I noticed I couldn't track any other quests making the game practically unplayable, Whenever I build anything on my settlement It doesn't affect anything and keeps asking to put 3 Carbon nanotubes for my friends building even though he finished it hours ago. I have tried many things like restarting my game, leaving groups and joining others and tried getting a new settlement but that doesn't work either. I really love playing this game but it seems I can't do anything about his game-breaking glitch but quit altogether and put it behind me so if anyone has a solution please tell me I really love this game.

Help, the First Traveller mission [Question]

Started this in a two planet system, and it chose the one with the volcanoes.

The portal I'm supposed to use is in the middle of a volcano, and covered by rock I can't drill through. I've jumped a long way away but can't reset the mission.

Any ideas?

Small panels still broken? [Question]

So it looks like they fixed the issue with stairs, especially the wide ones and being able to place them with floors underneath, but the damn small floor panels still seen to be broken, like maybe 2 will actually snap into place but after that even though it shows where it can snap it actually won't snap at all, anywhere. It's beyond mildly infuriating.

Anyone found a workaround to it? I've tried a few things but no luck

the one thing that would suck me into this game religiously... [Suggestion]

Is if i could make some complicated automated factories and refineries like you can in a tech heavy modified minecraft game. Nothing I enjoyed more and would sink hundreds of hours in then to make huge buildings to process resources of any caliber all the way to some complicated automated assembly, with minimal maintenance. But require a insane amount of recipes, planning, infrastructure to grind and work towards etc. Best times I ever spent, I wish that kind of tech was in NMS. Having to do it all by hand is fun for a minute...maybe even 5....but not for hours of replayablity. At least not for me but maybe it's just not the game for me either, I'm willing to concede that. But it would be amazing if it was!

Question about the outpost quest in the Expedition [Question]

So I'm trying to progress through the Expedition. The only things I need to get my ship fully repaired is two Herox and the larva. I know hownto get the larva (I just need to figure out how to survive that fight). But the herox is a problem because in order to get the recipe to make it I need to find an outpost. Literally everything that I see as far as the icons on my map or that I see in the distance are about 10+ hours away. There's one that's 4 hours.

So as far as I can tell, my options are to hop in my exposuit and just jump my way there over however long that takes, or just go in a random direction and see what I find. I tried using the signal beacon and that keeps referencing exosuit enhancement that's many hours away. I tried making a new base away from my main one and see if a new signal beacon will give me something different but it doesn't. So yeah, any insight on how to progress would be great.

I think I'm pretty much over dealing with the settlement [Discussion]

I think it was a good idea, but there just isn't enough to it. And there isn't any real control over it.

The settlements really need to be expanded in terms of what you can do with them. Otherwise I think they are pretty boring.

We need to be able to decide what to build, rather then just getting an X/Y choice between two buildings, or sometimes even just one building and it's a yes or no choice. It would also be nice if we could decide where to place the buildings. And i think at least some of the buildings need to serve some function. So far the only building I have found that's useful for anything is the one that holds a trade terminal. Would also be nice if we had some sort of control over what product the town produces. And it would make more sense if it eventually produced some finished product, rather then just some raw material.

Pushing it a bit further, it would make sense if we could move those base NPC's to the town and use them to do research to make better upgrades or something.

I guess you could take it even further, but then we're starting to get more into a simcity kinda thing, which wouldn't really be bad. But i think that would be too much to ask for.

As it stands now the settlements were a cool idea, they just aren't really interesting

Question on dismantling + Navigation [Question]

I'm hoping someone here can help me out with this. I'm about 25 hours into NMS and I still can't find any answers anywhere on these two questions: I started out early going to multiple planets and setting up bases and portals with the intention of easily being able to go back and forth between planets/systems without wasting resources. But now I have maybe 10 bases across the universe and I have absolutely no idea how to tell which system they are in from the warp menu. I wasn't descriptive with my base names and the screenshots I took for each base don't show up in the portal menu.

How is anyone supposed to be able to use these portals if they have no description whatsoever about where each one leads? It's getting frustrating to the point where I almost want to go back and delete every single base except a couple JUST so I can memorize where they are. I think it is pretty stupid to not provide this info at the warp menu and on top of that, I can't access a map unless I fly out into space which is absolutely ridiculous.

Do you guys know of any tricks to know which systems you are in? Seems pretty stupid to design the map and navigation system to work like this unless there is something I'm missing. How in the world do you know which items you can deconstruct and rebuild VS the items that get deleted permanently? Early game I bought a bunch of low end upgrades for my movement system from the tech merchants at space stations and sometimes I can deconstruct them and other times they get deleted permanently and I am unable to sell them back to the vendor. Costing me nanites each time.

There seems to be no indicator that tells you which items you have saved forever as blueprints and which items you will lose forever. Is there a trick to knowing which ones you can or cannot dismantle? I don't want to clog up my inventory with class C upgrades but I don't want to just delete...

The big flaw being that you don't even need to use any exocraft to complete his "heists." Just hop in your starship and glide on over, no problem. Now if this is how they expected you to go about these missions, then the amount of units rewarded seems fair. But doing these missions would be a waste of time if you had to travel by exocraft.

Player-killers on Gisto Major [Discussion]

I had heard a few reports, from here and other subreddits, that some derelict losers were killing players as they approached Rendevous 2 and other places, costing them everything they earned during the expedition.

They obviously gain nothing from this but dopamine.

Anyway, yesterday just before work I hopped on to check my Copper mine on Gisto Major and some guy was going around hunting players and killing them. He had a plasma launcher and space ship and people doing the Expedition have no weapons so it was easy for him.

I immediately warped away, suped up my multi-tool and came back. Told him SMD, but he was gone. Booted or otherwise I do not know.

I had to leave for work right then and it's pissed me off until now.

MAIN POINT

as of today I'm investing all my resources into fighting tech and spending a good amount of time on Gisto Major to act as some sort of intervention between sick children PKers and people just trying to do the Expedtion losing hours of progress.

Awakenings Quest Antimatter Bug 2021 - Solution [Bug]

Skip to the bottom 'TLDR' for the solution (or at least a solution) and/or follow the step-by-step image instructions.

New to 'No Man's Sky'. It was running all so smoothly until this Awakenings (storyline) quest bugged out. The objective was to pick up the antimatter blueprint, however, the facility was stuck underneath a volcano...

Yes I know exocraft can mine volcanos (according to previous 'solutions') however I don't have access to any exocrafts because the exocraft trader (at the Gek space station) hasn't given me any other dialogue options except 'leave'. Presuming this was because I didn't progress far enough into the storyline - obtained many blueprints, none for anything exocraft-related sadly, don't have an option to build other terminals, perhaps you do need the hyperdrive first for these things, so the antimatter quest makes sense unless this is bugged too, would appreciate any help (need to check when I play again though):

Previously tried: Obtaining 60+ Gek words (my thinking was to unlock speech options with the exocraft trader) Jumping into the volcano... Don't try this, it's not some gimmick or a villain's lair Contemplating it's a bug while hearing how far the game has come Mining the rocks on the volcano thinking there's some out of sight tunnel Seeking the wisdom of the internet instead of those slimy Gek bastards

So I am building my first activated indium farm because I'm bored, and I found a nice 100% density S-class AI hotspot 300 u. away from a B-class energy hotspot.

At 99% density, each of my Mineral Extractors have a productivity of 620 AI/h, as long as they are not connected to a network of 5 or more Mineral Extractors. If I connect all my 40+ extractors together (they are built on top of each other) their productivity drops to around 120 AI/h each.

So I split them in groups of 4 extractors so my 40 extractors can keep their 620 productivity, but they still only add up to 23.000 AI per hour in total.

Am I doing something wrong? I was expecting way more productivity tbh lol.

Newish to NMS and looking for good ways to make money! [Question]

Still figuring this game out when I have time to. So far Ive discovered that duplicating Chlorine is a decent way to make money, and I have 6 bio-domes with all the plants needed to make circuit boards since those are worth about 900K a piece, although I’m wondering if I should ditch the circuit board farm and just fill all my biodomes with Gravitino plants?

Those are the few things I’ve done anyway. If anyone has any better or more efficient money producing methods let me know!

SĂŁo Paulo Museum of Art (WIP) [Screenshot]

Started with the SĂŁo Paulo Museum of Art (and not done yet) but I'm trying to build several museums and botanical gardens that are iconic now that I've bought everything you can get from the Quicksilver companion. I'm going to call the planet "Exploration Park".

I'm going to put all art and decals in this museum.

The inside of some of these places may be a little less accurate because not everywhere has good floorplans to follow. :)

Is there any pieces in build mode that's a bit more plain? [Question]

Am I missing something?

I want to basically... Make a base based on my studio loft apartment.

And it dawned on me that man... There is a lot of missing materials.

Correct me if im wrong, but there is no brick walls. The pirces we donhabe are extremely deliberate and lack a more.... Universal application.

I dont mind using wooden walls and such, but lordt; this game needs more... Simplistic designs.

Is timber, stone, and alloy all we got? Because the designs from both timber and stone assume the WEIRDEST design choices when you get to stacking walls for different floors.

I miss the legacy parts and I dunno if the game even has them anymore.

A No Man's Sky inspired type of game idea. [Fan Work]

Now, something I love about NMS is the fact that it has such a massive Galaxy with so many Systems that you can explore and all that. But I'm an ambitious man.

Here's the idea I came up with THIS MORNING. A Massive Galaxy(well, several. You and other Players have to discover a way to go to other Galaxies, you can't just go to the center and suddenly you're in the next one like NMS) filled to the brim with procedurally-generated Star Systems. Some are Black Holes systems that are slowly dying, others are Trinary Systems that are(realistically) incredibly hot. Others are peaceful, others are terrifying, etc.

What's the hook? You can make your own Species. Like Spore in a way(but better!). When you create your own species, you can set if you want anyone to be able to play as them, just friends, or just you. You'll start off in a random Star System(it'll always be a Star System, and it'll prefer if its unclaimed). You'll start off in your species' starting village(it'll be small and undeveloped, you just started after all!), but over time, it'll grow bigger and bigger, and depending on many things, it'll even be filled with other players' species or the Preset Species(I know some people don't want to be forced to make their own, don't worry, I get it. We're not all creative butterflies.) You'll eventually claim your starting system for your species, and you can expand from there. Because you started the species, you can change how they'll act(like Stellaris if you know what that is). You wanna be a kind and honorably Merchant faring species? You can do that! You wanna be like the Imperium of Mankind and go on Genocidal Crusades? You can do that! You wanna be a Pirate-like Species that hunts for treasures and gets rich ASAP? You can do it!

Of course, this isn't the only aspect of the game. You, and other players, need to come together eventually and assist each other...

THE NEXUS IS BROKEN. This is not a bug report. This has been a long standing issue with the game for YEARS and me "reporting" it will not help. This is an open letter. [Suggestion]

If I spend quite some time on a Nexus quest and "returning" to the nexus is the last step of the quest, then returning to the nexus SHOULD BE BUG FREE AND WITHOUT ISSUE. This is a LONG LONG LONG standing bug that returning to the nexus can bug your ship out causing it to float in air and you be stuck unable to exit and UNABLE TO RETURN THE QUEST. if the quest states to return to the nexus THE QUEST SHOULD BE CONSIDERED COMPLETE ON ENTERING THE NEXUS, regardless of landing or interacting with the podium THE BUG HAS NOT BEEN FIXED AND WILL NOT BE FIXED THAT PREVENTS YOU FROM LANDING so the quest should be changed to REWARD ON ENTERING THE NEXUS WITHOUT INTERACTION FROM THE PLAYER.

​

Seriously, this is a 3+ year old bug that prevents players from returning quests and wastes hours upon hours of time, this should not have to be reported to you at all, it is long standing and known, you can see ships being stuck in the nexus on a daily basis and IT IS NOT THEIR FAULT.

​

Players should not have to fear entering the nexus when returning quests, as soon as the main objective is complete RETURNING TO THE NEXUS SHOULD NOT BE INSTANCED, IT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED COMPLETE AND THE REWARD WAITING NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS TO THE PLAYER'S CONNECTION. Returning to the nexus IS NOT AN IMPORTANT STEP IN THE QUEST THAT SHOULD PREVENT THE PLAYER FROM GETTING THE REWARD. THE QUEST HAS BEEN COMPLETED.

UI Bug (Oculus Quest w/ Link cable) [Bug]

Hello! I was wondering if anyone has experienced this issue before?

This seems to happen consistently after around 20 minutes of playtime, sometimes less, sometimes longer, but it happens every single time.

I'll be playing, doing nothing special and suddenly the UI will double, and constantly replicate itself until I restart Steam VR and No Mans Sky.

Sometimes I can pull the Link cable out and back in and quickly enable Oculus Link to fix it, but most of the time it crashes Steam VR.

NMS in-game music really makes a difference [Discussion]

Does anyone else feel like the 65daysofstatic soundtrack to NMS really adds something significant to the overall NMS experience? Even some of the softest, simplest melodies in the game really stick with me after hundreds of hours of playing the game. And whenever I hear them again, I'm instantly back in that vast universe exploring some new strange planet.

I've been listening through the official soundtrack on YouTube and there is one in-game melody that I can't seem to find in any of the songs. It's the simplest, quietest little melody, mainly just six minor/sombre piano notes (or chords) that start high and progressively get lower. It usually plays in game when you are just kind of wandering around a planet or maybe around your base after a long day of work.

Anyway, I really love this soundtrack and I'm so glad it's in the game. It really helps define and flavor the NMS experience.

A few questions from a returning player [Question]

So here's the quick backstory... Like many people I got the game on release and enjoyed it for what it was for about 75 hours. The chill exploration was nice and the ships were cool, but as with many others, I got bored with the "sameness" of everything and the lack of promised features so I set it aside to play other games. Since then I've fired up a couple new games after the major releases, but never played more than a few hours in each, but now I've got the exploration bug again and I'm wanting to commit to a longer time in game. I'm currently about 15hrs into a normal save, though I've not really progressed that far as I've spent a long time in each system saving up for better ships and working on my suit inventory.

With that all said, I've got a few questions I'm hoping to get answers to...

1: Multiplayer

When multiplayer was released in earnest, I remember reading about trolls / gankers killing other players and basically causing havoc. Personally I don't feel like that kind of behavior should have a place in this game and so I've always set my new saves to be as offline as possible so I wouldn't have to deal with it. Unfortunately, that's led to a situation where certain parts of the game feel empty when I'm not sure they should. Specifically the Anomaly feels like it should be a nexus where all players can converge even if their individual games are isolated. I'm sure there are other examples, but this is the most notable so far. As a result, I'm curious if there is a way to open up my experience so that the parts of the game that are specifically designed for players to interact (like the Anomaly) are populated, but that will still protect me from gankers / trolls. It feels like the settings are there, but I'd like some guidance on if its possible or not, and if it is, what specific settings need to be in place.

Exploration vs wandering [Suggestion]

The game is a whole lot of fun, I just woke up and can't wait to check on my beautiful activated indium farm and all, but:

What is exploration? Imagine when an explorer arrives back from across the seas, having explored all those far lands. How do you know that he really did do exploration? You'll know because he'll show you his maps, and on those maps he can point out all the islands he discovered, and tell you from his notes that on this island, that I named such and such, I saw these animals, that looked like this, I found these precious minerals, there's that other location where I found a native village where I sold my pearls for gold, and now I know that island, we know its coordinates, we can go back there, it belongs to the known world, calatogued, mapped, actually discovered, because we can visit it again.

That's exploration.

Why can't I click on a discovered system on the galaxy map, and bring up its details, the planets, the exact locations of the discovered settlements, monuments, trading posts, and the information about the discovered animals?

Of course I could bring up my spreadsheets, with all the details of my discoveries, the glyph addresses, and then cross reference my notes with the in-game discovery list, to see what plants and minerals I discovered in a given system. But why doesn't the game provide these features of catalogization, and keeping track of my discoveries, so that I can browse and search among my discoveries for later reference, as layed out in the stellar geometry of the galaxy?

Am I supposed to just wander around aimlessly, wondering at the beauty and diversity on a planet, and then forget about it?
