Problem "the purgue/reset interface" mision [Question]

I'm on the mission called "lthe purgue/reset interface". I activate the portal without problems, I cross that portal but I don't get anywhere, it's an infinite journey that doesn't end. I have tried it by leaving up to 3 hours in infinite travel until I had to close the game.

Has anyone else had this problem?

NMS Suggestion: Minotaur Booster Run. Time for a speed up. [Suggestion]

With the Sentinel updates so impressively improving the Minotaur and its overall Nimble agility has been fantastic, having it as a follower to fight Sentinels and any aggressive creatures absolutely fantastic, and I know the main premise of the Minotaur is its booster to get it around, but...

The Minotaur is also the slowest of all EXO vehicles and I feel it's time that it gets a boosted run function, helps double its speed or maybe triple Baseline speed Beyond 5/u per second.

And personally I just think it would be awesome to go screaming across the surface of a planet and a giant mech suit at high speeds that are on foot rather than boosting through the air

Hey I can’t come up with any good base blueprints [Question]

Are you able to borrow other people’s blueprints? If not is the community thing for the game like currently broken and is that why your unable to play with other players? I’m really unable to come up with any good base designs and umm this is serious as this base is going to be a very big base (if I can get other npcs to move here) But yeah it’s going to be like 1 of the colonies you can become leader of. Anyways I’m going to start with it’s HQ which will contain the trading center as well as the main machines like the research machine and stuff like that. I can’t come up with any good blue prints though :( Does anyone know how I can find any blueprints? Or download any? Or if you can? I really do need this as I want to make a colony for my people in the game. It won’t bother me if you can’t. I’ll just try to do the colony on my own. I just wanted to know if anyone knew a way to download blueprints for structural stuff- like from the community. (I’m not always the best at designing stuff. I can be but I’m not always)

The current state of No Man's Sky [Discussion]

I've been playing NMS for a few years now, and while I love the game and the free updates, I also feel Hello Games needs to focus the next update on bug fixes and quality of life improvements rather than new features.

Here are a few things I compiled in the few days, I'm sure you guys have many more. I hope this gets attention because everybody will benefit from these: When entering the Anomaly you can get stuck and lose all event progress Can’t remap controls. This is the ONLY game I know that on consoles in order to run you press R3 instead of L3, and you can’t change it Can’t call freighter while swimming Using Visor resets view inclination to 0 When sending out frigates on expedition, be able to use fuel stored in freighter’s extended inventory boxes Freighter paint menu is bugged and it won’t properly change freighter’s color When completing a frigate expedition, be able to receive the item rewards to any inventory space not only to freighter inventory Can't build exovehicle terminal inside freighter. All other terminals are available, except this one Option to block other ships from entering your freighter Be able to reset frigate name to default If you accept an encounter while pulsing in a specific direction, you’ll be aiming at a totally different direction after the encounter Trade terminals have inconsistent sell options, all terminals must allow player to sell from regular inventory, ship and freighter Be able to change ships while in a Space Station Be able to call freighter while pulsing (just like you can call the Anomaly) be able to see a basic ship UI while in 3rd person view so we can see where planets are located to easily scan them On consoles be able to change language to other than system language (some localizations are terrible) Base salvage capsule won't work on freighters, keeps saying ā€œinventory fullā€ when trying to access it...

Question on Freighter hierarchy [Question]

So, I have a A-Class Freighter with 34 Slots, 159ly range (100,000,000 U) and am offered a B-Class Freighter with 32 Slots and 118ly range (101,000,000 U). Wich one is better?

How far is the first rendezvous point? [Question]

I've probably warped about 30 times by now and i haven't reached the rendezvous point required in the first phase of the new expedition yet, is it normal for it to be that far or am i somehow too far away from it? this is my first expedition so i don't know much about how these rendezvous points work

#

I am lost [Question]

I put down this game for a while only after just starting it because it didn’t stick with me. I just now decided to give it another shot and it turns out I forgot everything… is it worth trying to salvage it should I just make a new save and start over?

A Way To Locate Radiant Pillar Without Summoning? [Question]

I'm doing Jason Plays "Iron Man" Challenge. I walked 9 hours on the planet and found/repaired a crashed ship. I would like to travel back to the Radiant Pillar area and set a base for various reasons. I didn't think to note anything about the location other than it was near the bottom of the planet in the discoveries view. I've since been flying around the planet, east to west looking for a building or waypoint that I'd previously saved at while on foot, so to find a path back, but I've not been lucky.

Is there a way to locate the ships location?

Thanks.

Ship scrapping bug [Bug]

So I was scrapping broken ships and after salvaging the ship, my main ship (an exotic) suddenly just started taking on the appearance of the scrapped ship, while still keeping its inventory and name. Is there a way I can fix it? (I was playing in multiplayer with a friend FYI)

Beautiful solar system. [Screenshot]

During my expedition I came across unique royal oddities... things like, very deep seas, floating islands but...

I never imagined that I would find myself with a trinomial system (a system with 3 suns)... this is spectacular and I could come to live in this system with my original game.

A Trace of Metal quest bugged? [Bug]

Hey everyone,

I need help. I was doing the Trace of Metal quest. I am at the part called "The Lost Watchman" where I have to active the starship pulse drive to present the brain to the crimson void. I have the quest selected but it's not showing in the bottom right of my HUD. When I pulse drive nothing happens. I tried restarting the quest and I ran into the same problem. I now can't restart the quest anymore. I also lost the brain quest item so I'm completely stuck.

What can I do? Is there a way to manually restart the quest or force a failstate? I don't have any old saves to reload to.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I’m wanting to try no man’s sky but I know nothing about it and could use some help being motivated to play it again [Question]

I tried it once for maybe a few hours and I got burned out way too fast. I just didn’t see what I needed to be doing and I really don’t understand much of the goals

I have 6 hours before it redownloads and I’d kinda like to know more about it and maybe it would peak my interest?

I know it’s infinite and I think all the creatures and planets are unique and randomly generated if I’m correct.

I think I’d really enjoy it but how does the online system work with the other players?

Also I may have gotten burned out because I started looking for those language translation stones and spent like an hour walking from one to another.

I feel like I got burned out on it way too fast as I do most games before coming back and really enjoying them

Any goals or things I probrobly don’t know may help. Any of the lore If any?

It seems fun to travel and explore but how are some of you playing for hundreds of hours? What keeps you entertained? I don’t know much of anything at all about the game so really any info would be appreciated

High Vram Usage and weird texture pop-in. [Question]

Hey Guys, i've got problems with high Vram Usage in No Man's Sky.

It starts out at about 6GB of vram utilisation, but slowly creeps up to 7.3-7.6 and i start to get weird texture glitches and pop-in.

Preview of the problem.

​

Preview 2

I Play on High settings. I can easily run this game on ultra but the problem gets worse with ultra settings.

Settings are:

Resolution 3440x1440

Everything high.

Anisotropic Filtering: 8

DLLS: Balanced

​

Specs are:

Rog Strix 3070 8GB vram.

i9-12900k

32gb CL16 3200mhz DDR4 ram.

​

Anyone know what to do? Is the game just like this? I've played this game before on a GTX 980 without these texture problems.

My "research" tells me that a 4gb card can easily play this on high settings, so i dont know if theres anything wrong with my GPU or if this is a known problem.

Giving out orange sentinel quad eggs [Information]

After the most recent patch that reverted all expedition companions to the original blue colour I seems the orange is no longer available.

Well I have you covered if you are a fan of the orange quad I have an egg that still produces them.

You may ask how? Well it’s because this egg was around before the expedition so it wasn’t affected by the patch.

The weirdest thing I encountered (ship exchange) [Question]

So I'm currently playing (gamepad in lap as I type) and I went back to my freighter to offload goods. A Gek landed too and had a nice looking ship and a class above my current one.

My current one was only Class C but I decked everything out and was an agile beast with lost of space. Anywho I checked it over and decided I wanted it, but I needed another 5 Mill to buy it outright, or had enough to exchange. I decided to trade. I could have tried to sell stuff to get enough to buy it, but didn't want to risk him taking off and then wait around with the chance I'll see the same class and space, etc.

Just as I confirmed I thought, aw crap all those upgrades. I should have dismantled for resources first or something. Oh well.

As I just started working on the new ship, this Gek came back about three minutes later, still in my former ship. Huh?

What's his problem? The ship is in great condition. I go to talk and the game gives me the option to exchange the ships again.... Or Claim the Ship for FREE?

Claimed it for free, now I got both ships. Da hell? šŸ¤”šŸ¤Ø

I mean I'm not complaining, but huh? šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

PS4: I think my ps4 just bricked itself out of nowhere. Is my NMS progress gone forever? [Question]

Long story short, I was watching youtube on my PS4 today when it suddenly froze. I tried the usual power cycle/safe mode solutions but it just sits on a blank screen instead of loading anything, so it may very well be bricked.

Now I'm wondering that if I DO have to get a new PS4, is there any way I'll have anything left from my 200+ hr playthrough? I know some things are linked to our accounts, so is any of my progress saved to my NMS account itself? I wasn't planning on getting a PS5 yet, so I hadn't even done the upload/transfer save option, and now I may not get the chance to. :(

Expedition 5 Rendezvous 3 missing?? [Bug]

Anyone else have this issue?? I warped to the system where rendezvous 3 is supposed to be. When I get there, all planets say undiscovered, even though there are bases on them.

PSVR hands disappearing while in vehicles [Bug]

I've looked into other posts for solutions, but tmy problem seems to be a bit different. Got the PSVR system the other day. This is basically the big game I got it for and have been loving what Hello Games has done for it. However, I've run into a weird bug that has seemingly propogated across all saves, new and old. I can see the VR hands just fine when on foot, but as soon as I hop into an exocraft or spaceship, they disappear. I can still kinda muddle my way through interacting, but it makes it very hard since I can't see them. Does anyone know of any fix? Thanks!

What exactly does the (Core) stat mean on things like ships? [Question]

Is that the base modifier for everything that uses that stat? I'm looking at ships and looking at combat damage potential. I (think I) understand that the white line is the base and the yellow bit is what's coming from upgrades based on what's current installed.

But I saw a ship that had lower damage potential but higher core rating. Does that mean if I outfitted that ship identically to my current one with the same weapons/upgrades it's total potential would be higher as well? Is it simply a base stat and higher core is just always better, or is the Core stat factoring in something else?

#

Can you play the same character on both modes? And what's the odds of running across another player in Multiplayer? This is not an MMO after all. [Question]

Absolutely LOVE this game! Scanning creatures and resources and the gathering/crafting/trading mechanic is so much fun I haven't even given thought to trying to reach the center of the galaxy. The newest update added a lot of things, and might find to play with others, but I'm hoping I can use the same toon on both modes. Also can anyone give me the TL:DR run down on what the difference is. Too bad there isn't any DLCs cause I'd buy em all. Racing other players or something could be fun.

#

Can other player see un-uploaded bases? [Question]

I've got a huge base which exceeds the base part limit by a lot. This means I can't go to the base computer and pick 'upload base', so others can't teleport to it or see it as a purple base marker when I'm online. That's fine by me, it's supposed to be a secret facility anyway and there's a power facility just next to it which is technically another base and is small enough to upload, so they can just come through there.

However, if other players come to the base and I am online, they'll still be able to interact with and see the base, right? Otherwise, this is a problem for me.

The reason I'm not so sure about it is because a friend came over to the base but he couldn't see it, he could see some parts of it but most of it he just walked right through like it didn't exist for him. He was on PS4 so it could've been some kind of loading issue maybe, since in the past I've gone to a few bases that people have been building on the galactic hub which haven't been uploaded and a similar thing often happened to me, where only some parts of the base existed until after like a few minutes when the full thing appeared.

My expeditions neighbors disappeared... What happened? [Question]

Hello, it's my first time investing so much time to base building in an Expeditions save. I was happy seeing I have some 4 or 5 neighbors nearby, get to visit their bases, marvel at their WIP, and get some inspiration. It didn't feel lonely anymore! But the following day when I logged in, they all just disappeared. In some areas, I got new neighbors instead... So what happened? Is it a different server for every login? Did they all just decide to pack up and leave at the same time?

Expedition 5 u-turn. [Information]

So... on the last part of ex 5, having worked through;

Scan the animals Feed the animals Care for the animals Befriend the animals Build their trust Ride them Catalogue them

Essentially. All training to be some kinda uber-custodian. Even teaches a way to get food stuff without a weapon.

And finally the great irony. Getting 16 missions done with the explorer guild.

I've had 8 "go cull animals" In a row, I feel I should have a butchers title or something

On a side note, neutron cannon for culling is just hilarious.

I love the expedition's rewards but... [Suggestion]

Can we do expeditions without needing to start a new game everytime?

Or

Please can we have removed some ass boring missions? Like the ones that you need to do on space stations to earn standing points?

Has the way portals work been changed recently? [Question]

I haven't used a portal in several weeks. So when I recently started using them again, I was surprised to find out I have to recharge the portal at least every other trip now.

I know it hasn't always been this way. Last year the portal near my main base could be used for weeks without having to recharge.

Has the mechanism for how they work changed, or is this a bug maybe?

Sentinels ditching at the start of combat?? [Bug]

I was just heading to a freighter crash using my minotaur on a high sentinel activity planet and I shoot some random sentinel I see mainly because killing them, and opening purple glass gives me lots of modifications to sell for nanites but instead of fighting the sentinels just fly up into the sky while "searching". Just posting to ask if anyone else has something like this happen since the sentinels have been updated, pretty funny in general.

Walking sensitivity on PS5? [Question]

Just started playing the new expedition on PS5 but it seems the walking sensitivity control was somehow changed. Probably due the latest Sentinel update? The walking speed just seems to me a lot more sensitive and sadly there is no option to change that.

#

Procedural generation question [Question]

Am I right in thinking that NMS operates on a sort of ā€˜flavor of the day’ premise? Example, I notice that all of the Paradise planets look the same on a given day, but different from day to day or for sure week to week. Also the ship designs seem to operate the same way. I don’t love the plants generated by the algorithm for this week, but am I right in thinking that if I wait a few days I will see nicer ones again?

Progress gone after game update (xbox series s) [Bug]

Hi everyone. Today I booted up no man's sky to continue where I left off. I was in a decent planet with a good base and some progress. I was excited to find anti matter. I played for about 5 minutes before the game suddenly crashed. When I tried re-launch, it said a 4.4gb update was needed. Cool ok now that's fine.

I then open the game, load the file which had the timestamp of my previous save. However I enter the game and my progress is set all the way back to when I had not even made the terrain manipulator. I had no currency, base, teleporter. It's as if the game just reminded me back. Heck I was even on that shitty radioactive planet. I cannot progress again. Please let me know if there is anything I can do. I'm on xbox series s

A supreme upgrade for the Movement System.

GekNip Farm Solar System [Information]

Hello All!

I've found, and named a new system! I've called it NipNip system. There will be a base called NipNip Farm 1 on NipNip Prime. I'll be building some landing pads there and all I ask is that if you see me and have a GekNip bud to spare that I trade for it, so I can get my GekNip farm started. As for why I'm telling you all this, I created this entire system to be a geknip farming area. Also have some fuel in your Hyperdrive Bc this system doesn't have a spacestaion. (NipNip farm 1 does have a portal but I don't know if other players can use it.)

Hey there interlopers, I was lucky enough to get an exotic ship finally in the current expedition that I just finished.

Anyone know if this can be transferred to my regular save or if I just need to scrap it?

A fun little Permadeath challenge: run a derelict freighter with no cold protection. [Suggestion]

Ended up doing this unintentionally. I was playing a new Permadeath save and thought I'd grab the emergency broadcast receiver and run a derelict. When I entered the derelict, I saw my hazard protection was plummeting alarmingly fast, at which point I realized I'd never picked up any cold protection upgrades. But I figured what the hell; it was a fairly recent start and I don't mind starting over, so decided to just run it anyway.

Of course, I had to make it even more challenging:

  1. no recharging with batteries, so only use the blue heating units you can find on the derelict.

  2. loot everything, so no 'speedrunning' to the end. Collect from all containers, collect all slime, kill all critters/floating bots/green jellies, clear all rooms, and get the manifests/logs.

I was successful, although admittedly it wasn't a terribly difficult freighter, having only 8 rooms and not a lot of critters. Still, it was a fun experience, and it really gives you an appreciation for those little blue heaters!

Beetle companion / Craw Milk [Question]

Might anyone know the system names where I can find these 2 please? I kind of messed the expedition up buy charging to the final rendezvous and not exploring enough along the way.

thank you kind stranger! [Discussion]

So I'm quite new to NMS - I think I'm about 140 hours in (I'm crazy hooked!) And have been perplexed about where to find Tainted Metal (tbh I still don't know!).

But then I popped over the the Anomaly with a haul of farmed Salvage Data to go shopping, and before I new it, a msg popped up saying ''ElectroCarrie received 9999 Trained Metal from Raven'.

I'm so new to it, but whoever you are Raven, thankyou. If I knew how to say thank you in NMS I would!

Super kind and I've filled up on some good old black market goodies!

Getting boring [Question]

I've been playing the game for a couple months and I honestly don't know what to do anymore, I've gotten ships that I like, I have a settlement, I've unlocked multiple weapons, upgraded my ship and suit. But it feels like it's pretty much a cycle that never ends until I have max upgrades. Please help me find interest in the game again

Can you export a ship’s 3D model? [Question]

I’ve been playing for a few weeks now, and I think it would be super neat to have a model of my most used ship that I could print. I’ve played a few other games that had the ability to export 3D models into an STL or OBJ file (or something that could be converted to those) and was wondering if No Mans Sky had a similar feature.

#

Exotic vs. Explorer vs. Hauler vs. Fighter vs. Living Ship [Question]

So, I am trying to figure out what I should trade in.

I want a fighter, but I have Max my ship slots. I hope they expand the number of ships you can have in the future past 6

So should I trade my Explorer for a Fighter?

Should I Trade my 2nd Living Ship for a Fighter?

Should I trade my 2nd exotic for a fighter?

It's hard to decide because I love my 2nd living ship, and my squid exotic is super hard to find.

Perhaps the least of my favorite ships may be my Explorer, but I will lose a maxed out Ship in the process.

Any suggestions?

Thanks, everyone!!

Will prizes/loot/etc gained during Expeditions Mode unbalance a playthrough when that character goes to Solo Mode at the end of the event? [Question]

This new mode sounds like a lot of fun, like a Battle Pass, but I've seen YouTube clips that show fancy jetpacks, weapons and more. But if you have to start a new character to play Expeditions, won't you me possibly OP when it ends and your toon goes to Solo, or wherever? All the goodies and prizes and such make me wonder if it will spoil a standard game because you will have items and maybe abilities you wouldn't have by then in a standard game. Achievement hunting will be fun, down the road, but having to start a new character/game for each mode sounds agitating, much less having one unbalanced by an event. Don't get me wrong, I very much enjoy this game and love the new additions, but I'm still new and don't understand deeper things just yet. Opinions and input invited, much thx in advance

Derelict Fleet Ships… [Suggestion]

My idea is that every so often a fleet ship you send out on an expedition may get damaged/stranded and you can rescue it. Once you’ve warped there you land on it and enter. I’d love to see pirates onboard and have an actual multitool versus multitool action to reclaim the ship. If you don’t rescue the fleet ship then it is lost and you’ll need to recruit another to fill it’s vacancy.

It’d be nice to even have repairing elements to our freighters as well. Connecting them the derelicts or crashed sites we discover. Like giving us the sense of that could be me!

How To Delete Base With No Base Computer [Question]

I had an old base on the same planet I am currently on. I had to move my base because a huge rock that cannot be mined spawned/appeared after I built my basic base. I had to move, but didn’t move very far. A glitch happened when I tried destroying the base and now the base name and waypoint are still there, but there is no computer. This wasn’t a problem until I tried adding onto my current base and it says I am building onto that base, despite not being close to it at all. I try connecting a corridor to one of my rooms, but it does not connect because I am building on the other base. Does anyone know how to fix this or get rid of the old base?

Did I just time-travel? [Question]

so my [REDACTED] planet that used to look like this with light and glowing ball creatures has now turned into a frozen wasteland, what has happened? Oh also, when I was on the planet, the glowing ball animals were everywhere yet my data said they were extinct, as well as saying there were 8 other creatures that weren't extinct, yet they were no where to be found. Have I just time travelled?

Does anyone still have a working first wave exotic? [Discussion]

Was about to start maxing out an explorer to make my path through every galaxy slightly faster, but for whatever reason neither of the 2 systems I had before the sentinel update have their first wave exotics showing up, sometimes not even after almost 20 resets. Don't know if this is just me having bad luck or if something similar to the multi-tool purge happened to first waves too.

I just started today, really enjoying it.

Ghost in the Machine glitch [Question]

Not a new player. I'll start with that.

So, I'm trying to do Ghost in the Machine, and I'm at the part where you have to locate a communications tower to contact Apollo. Pretty cut and dry, simple process. Except the tower I located was on a lava planet and it spawned somehow inside a volcano. Not even on the side of it or on top, but deep inside of it. I tried to dig through, but you can't use the terrain manipulator on those volcanoes.

Anyone know how to reset the mission so I can search for a new tower?

[VR] Horrible performance in VR, possible double rendering? (Rift S) [Question]

Hello everyone, posting this here in hopes anyone has had a similar issue before.

I've been playing NSM again recently to check out the new updates and thought I'd give VR a shot to see how it works. Unfortunately it runs extremely bad compared to non-vr. The game often stutters between two different renders of the game, one lagging slightly behind and I believe this is the cause for the performance loss. This has happened before with other games when running the occulus software (mandatory to use the rift S at all, as far as I can tell) + steam VR, and the solution was to just play the game without steam VR and it would have a considerable performance increase.

Unfortunately NMS does not seem to run at all without Steam VR which makes this situation extremely hard to solve. With everything set to the lowest quality (in-game), and the lowest render settings (on steam VR), the game just barely manages to get 10 FPS and has the stuttering between what appears to be 2 different renders of the game, as soon as I move my head slightly. I don't know what else to try to solve this or how to debug this any further. I've tried running both OpenComposite and Oculus TrayTool to see if it would change anything but no luck there.

Another reason why I believe in this double rendering scenario is that when I take off the headsets, even thought the game is still showing and moving on the desktop, my GPU usage goes from 100% to 60% ish, which would indicate the "steam vr render" (if that's a thing at all) has stopped or something along those lines. My system specs should not matter for this specific problem as I can play any other VR game flawlessly but I have a gtx 1660 super, and an i5 7500. Any help or extra knowledge on the matter would be extremely appreciated. Thank you everyone.

Teleporting to my Bases Sends me Flying! 2022 [Question]

Now that I have been learning about how to build cool bases, I have really been experimenting with the wood/stone/alloy materials, rather than the basic pre-fab components. But when I teleport to those bases, I end up being thrown to specific spawn points, and it is frustrating, and even painful at times.

The experience takes about 1 second and in detail is this: I see myself teleporting in where the teleporter is, but I am bouncing up and down in the moments while it is still loading (like the first 1/2 second), and I can't move yet (before I hit tab) Once it loads completely (full second), then it jumps me to some other location.

So here's what I have noticed: I always move the base computer after I first claim the site because I usually build on top of that location. i move it because I am building on top of it, and it will otherwise be unreachable below the structures I build. If my teleporter is a distance from the base computer, I seem to rubber-band (bounce up and down and then get launched) when I spawn in. I think adding a landing pad also messes with this because sometimes when I teleport to a base, I spawn on the landing pad or under it. If I move the base computer to a pre-fab circular build roughly over the spot where I first claimed the base site, I tend to rubber-band or thrown away.

Anyone figure this out yet?

Here are my two suggestions in comments that have partially turned up in the game. Probably a coincidence but I'm still delighted!

Other things I'd love to see are:

A teleporter room for the freighter to allow you to beam to and from a planet surface.

More ship designs.

Better action when fighting sentinel dreadnoughts.

Haven't finished the current expedition but a sentinel galaxy between galaxies would be cool, like a 0.5 abstract galaxy with insane physics anomalies.

Follow me mode for other exocrafts.

Sentinel ship.

More story lines to play which are based in the lore.

Take my ideas Hello Games, I won't sue!

What would everyone else like to see in the game? ("No capes!" - Edna "E" Mode, 2004)

Recruitable frigates not spawning anymore ? [Question]

So as the title says I cannot for the life of me find other recruitable frigates and I've been system/galaxy hopping only to hunt for them, so I naturally tried all kinds of things - but without a result.

Do they have a cooldown timer of sorts if you recruit too many in a short time ?

Last time I saw something recruitable I managed to stumble upon an S class. After recruiting it (duh), all of the other recruitable frigates in the area became non-recruitable. And pretty much every single one ever since. Now it's been a couple good in-game hours of roaming around and hunting but nothing on the radar. I'm debating whether it's a bug or feature lol.

Anybody else had the same thing happen ?

Weird freighter glitch? [Bug]

So I’ve not run into this one before.

Basically what happened was, I called my freighter right above a planet I was fighting some sentinels on, and then left to get to the frigate. The wanted level from the planet followed me into space where I continued to fight until the Sentinel Dreadnaught

The issue was, I never stopped fighting dreadnoughts. Ever time I would leave the range of one, another one would spawn. Not that I’m complaining, cause the loot was good.

The weird issue was after this, I landed on another planet finally to escape the sentinels and wiped them all out, which ended the wanted level. As I left the planet, I called in my frigate, which was now a completely different ship design, class, and storage capacity, but everything inside is the same.

Has anyone else run into anything like this? I’m not complaining because it’s a better looking freighter, and the class was higher then my last one, but I wouldn’t want it to happen again.

The only other thing I noticed was that it seemed to match the freighters of the system I was in, so my only guess is that it lost what mine was supposed to look like, and just made a new one matching the current system.

Any chance at PS5>PS4 save transfer? [Question]

Hi all,

I have been loving NMS for ages now, thanks for all the updates and ongoing support. However, I wondered if it would be possible to allow PS5 to PS4 save transfers? The reason I ask is I started on PS4 and PSVR then got a PS5 and upgraded the version to play on it.

Then, my PSVR adapter arrived in the mail and I dusted off the headset to try it out again, only to realise there was no way to continue my progress in the PS4 version (I had forgotten saves weren't synced through the cloud).

I would love to hop back in to try the new PSVR patch on PS5, but my old PS4 save is around 65 hours in the past :( It would mean not having my squid ship, live ship nor S-class carrier etc. I could always dabble in it to try Permadeath again (I've already got the trophies for reaching the centre) and in survival, but like all NMS players I am very attached to my current setup.

Anyway, I hope it's something that might be easy to implement in a future update. Keep up the good work.

My Experience of the Expedition in VR [Discussion]

Hi everyone,

I stated in a comment I would try to experience the expedition in VR. Today, I finished that goal, and the quad companion is cute and adorable. The following are my thoughts on the experience.

When I first started the expedition, it was the first time starting a new game in virtual reality. I had played a bit in vr on my normal save, but not from scratch. The experience was, interesting. Seeing every creature as if it was in my room or getting into the new ship for the first time or just seeing the game from the first-person perspective were all new and intriguing. I like using my multitool to actually scan creatures and aiming separately from my perspective. However, there were a few caveats.

The first problem I ran into was interacting with terminals and npcs. It would force my position and room rotation instantly so that the focus direction was in the direction the game wanted me. That was a bit jarring and disorientating, and my main gripe about the vr design in the game, especially when interacting with creatures. Second, I found out after installing the jet boots, (you can't punch jump in vr), I found out the character is considered to be facing whatever the focus direction is. Lastly, I wander my room a bit and look around a quite bit in vr, and I would always have trouble pulling out my multitool, since it is also based on focus direction and position, and not the relative position of the headset.

Onto the expedition, it was fine, but it was just all over the place, and I think a lot of us realized that. The previous expeditions had a thought-out goal. Pioneers showed what an expedition could do, Beachhead had an interesting story line, Cartographers stranded us on a planet and the goal was to get off, Emergence gave us the story with the sandworms. This expedition, however, was a showcase of what the creatures could do. In the game's base...

Mildly annoying end to Exp 5! [Discussion]

So, completed the expedition Friday night. Finally got the grind of the explorers guild nonsense sorted, so collected all my rewards, saved and quit out. Today, jumped into my normal save, went to get my rewards there and none of the 5th phase stuff was available, nor was the quad. Not completed apparently. Eh??

Went back to my exp save and found that it was behaving like I'd not handed in the last 4 explorers guild ones. But I had. Because I have a screen shot of the exp completion page and I hopped in\out of my ship after that to save and lock it off.

Bloody annoying! Had to hand in the missions again and reclaim the rewards to unlock them.

Several Settlement Questions [Question]

I've already looked, and have only managed to confuse myself, so I'm looking for knowledgeable assistance with a couple of Settlement-adjacent questions.

Firstly: I know I am only able to be an Overseer at one settlement at a time. And I know you can buy a map to get a new settlement, but I don't know if your old settlement remains at the state it's in when you abandon it? Or if it resets once you leave?

Similarly and related, I don't know if it's possible to build your settlement into having a teleporter? Or if I can leave one settlement for another, can I then build a base close enough to that abandoned settlement that I might be able to blend them?

Thanks in advance!

NMS Planetary Content Idea [Discussion]

So a good many of the worlds of No Man's Sky have some interesting descriptions. Some worlds are just Hot, Cold, Paradise, then others are Exotic, ranging from Pillared, to Hexagonal, to quite ominously The Nest. But other planets indicate horrific pasts, or even inevitable destruction. So what if NMS could add a New Update, akin to Desolation.

No Man's Sky: Cataclysm.

An update that adds and updates planets to create new categories. You have your run of the mill basic and extreme planets: Hot, Cold, Toxic, Radioactive, Verdant, etc. Then you have Exotic Planets: Hexagonal, Pillared, Nests, Bubbles, and so on. And THEN You have Cataclysmic Planets. Cataclysmic planets are categorized into different tiers.

Dead Worlds: Pretty Self explanatory. Devoid of life. Empty save for Whispering eggs and their monstrosities.

Shattered Worlds: Oh? Shattered? Yes. Shattered. Planets that through some force or another, are dead and crumbling. No Inner core or mantle of magma, just dead and hollow. But these worlds propose new concepts! Shattered planets covered in ruins, both modern and ancient. Sentinels have abandoned these worlds, so they always show up as 'Nonexistant'. Theres no atmosphere, but when has that stopped you? The call to lure travelers into discovering these worlds are that their resources are super dense. Deposits of chromatic metals are much larger, and much more rewarding. They almost always come with ancient bones or buried tech. Of course the solution to preventing you from moving over to the shattered portions would be a mix of Damaging the life support, and the longer you reside in a shattered zone, the more damage will slowly be done to your rides, but thats the cool part! Shattered zones provide EVEN MORE RESOURCES....

Unable to Join/Have Friends Join Multiplayer Sessions [Bug]

Since recent patches, my friends have been unable to join or be joined in game. Attempts to do so sometimes has no effect (i.e. spininning "confirm" circle followed by nothing) or occasionally "Joining..." followed by nothing. We are online in game and on Steam. We can send each other invites via Steam without issue.

This has been on going for the last two weeks and it's getting old quick. Has anyone else seen this issue?

Sentinel update question . [Question]

I have put a fair amount of time into this game , but I stopped playing shortly after the time that the settlement update was introduced . I'm trying to get back into the game but I'm a little confused on how to get things going , where do I go or who do I talk to about getting the new sentinel companions ??

I could've easily missed it , or maybe it's not as hard as I'm making it out to be , but I'm confused .

I managed to lose a Crashed Starship. I need help. [Question]

I apologize if this has an easy answer that I'm not seeing, as I'm not far in the game. There was a crashed ship near the first beacon that gives you the quest to find Artemis. I took a look at it, and everything under the sun was broken. So I got in the ship, claimed it so I can call it to me, and left. Emphasis on left. I can't call it to me because it's essentially a giant metal cicada husk of broken components, and it does not show up on my map, my compass, or anything, but it does show up on my ships in the quick menu. One answer I saw was to get a freighter and it will show up in there, but I feel there has to be an easier solution to this problem. If you could tell me how to locate it, please do so, and thanks in advance!

Why don't my Autonomous Mining Units work? [Bug]

I'm new to the game, sorry if this kind of post isn't allowed but I'm very confused.

How do I correctly use Autonomous Mining Units?

​

I felt like I was finally making significant progress in the game; got some good ships, managed to mine some rare bones and make a bunch of money; used that money to buy a freighter and immediately afterward got the distress signal for my first settlement. So, the pace of the game is really picking up - so I decided it was time to start settling into building a base so that I can automate some of the more mundane aspects of production.

I spent a great deal of time finding juuust the right spot to build a base. I found a planet where copper, magnetized ferrite, and gold can all be found (all good starting materials, right?). I managed to locate a site that was surrounded by plentiful deposits, and got to building a small base. I went to each of the deposits near the base and dropped Autonomous Mining Units and a Save Beacon so they're easily findable on my compass. Filled up all the AMUs with condensed carbon, and then I bounced - went off to explore elsewhere.

When I came back, all of the condensed carbon in the AMUs was used up, but none of them had any mined materials in them. I tried this two nights in a row and had the same result. What am I doing wrong? In order for AMUs to work, do I need to just stand AFK in my base while they mine? If that's the case, how is that any better than forgetting automation altogether and just mining when I come across materials I need? I feel like I had a reasonable expectation for how the game was going to progress and I'm starting to see that I'm going to be sorely disappointed.

I did a small bit of googling this issue before posting, but the posts I found were several years old describing an issue with AMUs being bugged. I know the developer has poured a lot of TLC into this game...

Overview of the realism overhaul mod "The Traveller (Immersive design for lovers of exploration)" for No Man's Sky! This mod changes everything! [Suggestion]

I would like to inform everyone about a mod called The Traveller (Immersive design for lovers of exploration) on nexusmods.com that changes the way if feels to explore No Man's Sky. If you love immersion and a sense of accomplishment, give the mod a try. Here is my post from the mod page post section:

​

When I saw this mod, I quickly pushed to the Universe Center on my Permadeath playthrough for the Steam Achievement. I got killed on the other side and started playing with this mod,Ā The Traveller (Immersive design for lovers of exploration). What aĀ challengingĀ andĀ immersiveĀ treat! I died on a few starting planets while repairing my broken ship, perishing each time on the trek towards the distantĀ Hermetic SealĀ location. Another restart later, I was able to get my ship repaired on a frozen planet with frigid temperatures and blizzards. I still did not have enough fuel for takeoff once my ship was repaired and had no way of obtaining any Atmospheric Gas (Nitrogen, Radon, or Sulpherine), which are now needed to launch my ship, anywhere on the frozen planet. At least not without upgrades that I did not have access to yet.

So I followed the directions on the mod description page in case a planet was effectivelyĀ ingredient soft-lockingĀ the player from progressing and went Exploring. I made sure to leave aĀ Signal Beacon, so I could keep an eye on my ship's location and make sure I was not running in circles in this frozen wasteland. At first I struggled to keep myself alive, but eventually started to maintain my suit with proper stocks of sodium and oxygen by refining some cave dwelling flora. After an hour exploring this deadly frosted wonderland, the sound of ships were heard soaring overhead, and I wisely flung my gaze upward...

Raising Owned Ship Cap to 9? [Question]

Thoughts on this? I ask because there are 9 landing pads in a freighter and yet our cap is only 6 ships. Also the recent raise of held companions from 6 to 18 (not expecting the same jump for ships) proves it's possible to raise such artificially low caps from past to present.

So.. how do you actually get to the center of the galaxy? [Question]

The first time I started playing its been my dream of finally seeing what's actually at the center, but there's so much confusion surrounding how to actually get there. This post will address a lot of questions I have about this quest of mine, so if your willing to share any answers it would go a long way

In the galactic map, there's a map of the galaxy on the top right that shows where you are in the galaxy, and under that, it says "Galaxtic Core (Elucid Galaxy)" and under that it shows a big number of LYs. What does this even mean? I assume the big number represents how far away I am from the galaxy center, but sometimes the number stays the same if I'm close to the center or clear out at the edge.

How do black holes work exactly, and should I be using them at all? I see people say that they usually bring you closer to the center, and sometimes bring you to the edge. My experiences with them almost always result in me being teleported farther from where I was every single time.

If I were to travel souly by hopping from system to system, following the galactic core path, how long would it take if I was 700,000 LYs away? Has anyone actually done that?

When I first started playing there was a quest that was telling you to go to the center of the galaxy, (I might just have bad memory), and there is no such quest now. I only have 2 primary missions ATM, which are "The Space Anomaly" and "The Purge." Are any of these two related to the galactic core or should I just not worry about them?

Okay that's pretty much everything. Thanks for reading, and please don't feel obligated to answer all of these questions. I'm sure a few of them are really stupid questions.

Does platinum ever occur in deep mineral deposits? [Question]

I've decided to establish five or six new mines in order to streamline my production of geodesite. I was hoping to build them all in the same system, but the constituent elements rarely exist in a single system. Platinum is an optional reagent in geodesite production and I also think it would be neat to have a platinum mine. The geodesite is for the production of fusion initiators.

I think I've seen platinum deposits once or twice but can't be sure. Always when I'm looking for something else. The wiki says it only comes from asteroids and freighters.

Did they get rid of Salvaged Fleet Modules? [Question]

Through googling various questions that arose while playing and reading posts of people discussing them I found this link to a wiki page talking about upgrade modules for freighters. It looks like you can boost your freighter in the same way as your personal ship but I've never seen one of these modules. I've done like 6-7 derelict freighters from the beacon you get at Helios/Scrap Dealer but as far as I've seen the only options to claim at the end are nanites, a MT slot upgrade, or freighter inventory slot upgrade. But the wiki and other posts I've found have said that you can get them from these beacon missions. Is it just a rare chance and my RNG hasn't been favorable? Am I missing something? Or are they just no longer in the game. I'm thinking it's the latter simply based on the fact that I've never seen one and the wiki page was last updated Sep 2020. But if that's the case then I feel like maxing out my freighter tech inventory is kind of pointless.

Should I play [Discussion]

The game loook like it could be a lot of fun exploring all the planets, but what's the point of building up on any one planet just to leave again? Or do you come back frequently? It seems like a regular survival but once you get to the middle third you just repeat it over and over again forever without reaching the final third and that sounds...just awful and honestly kind of just monotonous.

I either only see a few planets, or anything I build on a planet is basically a waste of time, is this how the game really works?

Invisible base computer solution [Bug]

1.) Backup your save files!!! It is under %AppData%\HelloGames\NMS

2.) Download save editor https://github.com/goatfungus/NMSSaveEditor

3.) Unzip it and run NMSSaveEditor.bat . Under Game slot, choose the save file where is the buged base.

4.) When it is loaded, go to Edit / Edit Raw Json. Open "PlaterStateData" and find folder "PresistentPlayerBases". Here are all your bases marked with numbers.

5.) Find the base, with invisible computer. Just click on the folder and scroll down in the code. You will find the base name there.

https://imgur.com/B2Eyczm

6.) Bases without bug will start with "ObjectID":"^BASE_FLAG",

https://imgur.com/LA38i7D

Corrupted bases don't have "ObjectID":"^BASE_FLAG", code line. It will start with an object from your base.

Now copy the first "object code" in the file as you see it here.

https://imgur.com/LA38i7D

(select with mouse and ctrl+C ) and after "Objects":[ hit Enter to make a new line and paste the code there (ctrl+V)

The duplicated code will look like this:

https://imgur.com/u6BWXHc just you will have different data. Now change in the copied code "ObjectID" line to "ObjectID":"^BASE_FLAG", like this

https://imgur.com/iksF16c

7.) Click anywhere on any other folder and save the json file. If you not made any mistakes it not will show any errors in the lines.

8.) Exit the json editor. In the main editor choose File / Save file.

9.) Go to the base, and find the base computer. It will have a different position now (maybe upside down, my was underground on a bottom of a battery). But finally you restored your base computer, you can delete it or move to different position.

Expedition 5 Exobiology, Rendezvous 3 taking a bit to get there? [Question]

So I have been a bit off-script for the last couple of weeks, not following the expedition 5 objectives closely. Instead, I have been tracking down some painful base-building bugs and reporting them.

But that aside, I completed Phase 2 yesterday, and then spent a couple of hours trying to get to rendezvous 3. OK, I may have taken a few detours to scout out some Green and Blue systems, but I didn't think I went that far off.

Anyway, my ship can jump well over 1,000 LY, but it is taking me a looooooooong time to get to rendezvous 3. One thing I am noticing is that:

The expedition path lines up perfectly with the black-hole path in the Galaxy Map... Hmmm... And I seem to be getting closer and closer to the galactic center inch by inch.

Anyway, is anyone else experiencing this too? Like I have racked up 10,000 LY so far. Yikes!!

Or should I backtrack to rendezvous 2, and then head to rendezvous 3 from there?

Tornado bug that blasts you into space while sitting in a chair or sofa. Capable of transporting you from a moon to the parent planet in 11 to 13 minutes. [Bug]

There are two videos uploaded to youtube where the tornado lifts Andor (u/Kromwall, origial discoverer of the bug) and me off our sofas and carry us from the moon to the parent planet. Because it is a random trajectory, the chance of successful touchdown on the planet is about 1 out of 6. Most attempts end with "Death by Cosmic Bombardment" after you "stand up" from the sitting position. This bug does not occur if using the sitting emoji action, only while seated on a piece of furniture. It takes about 11 to 13 minutes from the moon sofa liftoffs to the landings on the planet.

Personally, this is a bug that is just too enjoyable to be fixed.

Noooo! OMG!!! What have I done?!? No no nonononono!!! Ahhh $&#$@+!!! [Discussion]

Oh lordy no, I got carried away! I was decorating my settlement, and had this bright idea too set up a neat spaceport looking thing with the landing pads from the settlement I building a subfloor of metal panels, underneath the entire area like a giant plaza.

And yep, you guessed it! I surpassed my limit of allowed terrain edits, so now I have to returning to my settlement after loading from a save, all my previous terrain edits are undone and everything I built is buried, including the actual functional sub basement with my storage units, refiners, etc, that I hid several levels below the settlement.

Now, because it's not a settlement, I can't just use my multi-tool terrain editor to dig and unbury everything. I'm having to go through and put in new subfloors under everything I built before, deleting all the extra stuff I don't need, and probably delete and rebuild all the other previous existing flooring/Pre-fab rooms that I want to keep. I am really upset about a lot of the decoration that I'm going to delete in this process, as well as a lot of the fancy wiring I did having fun playing with switches and automatic doors.

Currently I'm using a bunch of cuboid prefabs to build an entire complex through the area that I paved of the settlement so that I can just run through underneath all of it and delete it quickly and then delete all the prefabs. But oh my gyah I'm so sick to my stomach and want to cry almost, lol!

Dying to visit Hyades [Bug]

​

I was told there would be planets!

Last night when jumping from Hesperius to Hyades, I found myself floating in space with no planet in sight. Barely skirted death with a reload.

It happened 5 times from 3 different core jump off points. This included closing the game completely and reloading.

I finally solved it by jumping through a blackhole, back to the jump off system and warping from there. This core-to-core method puts you with about 3500ly of the center instead of the usual 700,000ly.

This was on my expedition 5 save, steam, pc, no mods.

!! Much needed tweak for Minotaur inventory management. Please read and help me be heard by Hello Games. [Suggestion]

I'll get straight to the point (and reluctantly omit a paragraph of me praising Sentinel update):

THE PROBLEM

Minotaur has 4 free slots left after installing all the upgrades. All are necessary except perhaps bore and Icarus fuel system.

​

WHY IS THIS AN ISSUE?

It takes few seconds of combat to fill those slots with Pugneum, ammo, unintentional mining, unsuspecting fauna and what not. After that, all the subsequent loot is lost due to inventory being full. This is even more irritating on Survival mode.

​

POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS

  1. Store loot received after Minotaur inventory is full to exosuit inventory instead. This is how starship inventory behaves when it's full.

  2. Add more inventory slots to Minotaur.

  3. Add dedicated tech inventory to Minotaur similar to exosuit or starship.

​

ADDITIONAL NOTES (Just my thoughts, you can skip this.)

Personally, I'd be delighted to see solution #3 implemented, but I'd be down with any of them given how annoying it is to constantly move items from Minotaur to exosuit after each sentinel takedown. Thank you for reading through this post. I welcome your suggestions and don't forget to upvote if this is a struggle you can sympathize with.

​

It's crowded in here.

Another was a 60K AI farm. Oh boy, thank you!!

Another I visited was an ingenious egg farm!! Definitely using that design for myself, thank you!

These are the ones I've visited so far, but I just wanted to let everyone who does this, to help other travelers, know that it's appreciated 😊

Base back up and move app [Question]

Hi. There was a little piece of software/app that enabled you to backup and move your whole base, such as to a different save. I've used it in the past but can't find it anywhere now. Anyone know what it is? It's not Nom Nom or NMS Save Editor.

VR CPU upgrade? [Question]

I play in VR with a 3080ti and a i7-9700K, Ultra planet quality but backed off to high/enhanced for settings that I don't care as much about, with a Vive Pro (so 90Hz). I noticed that I'm in reprojection/motion smoothing due to CPU late starts (CPU limited) on the planets unless I drop the planet quality to the minimum. I'm not talking about the spikes/stutters when loading things or flying the ship quickly, I'm talking about just sitting still and hanging out out the surface.

Anybody with a better CPU like a i7-12700k playing in VR with Ultra planet quality have smooth 90Hz on the planets?

Some observations about Sentinels [Information]

Since the recent update, I am finding lots of planets with no sentinels.

On one such planet, I had been wandering for a while and seeing no sentinels, when I stumbled across a sentinel tower. There was a walker there which crumbled when I destroyed the three turrets, no other defence.

In uncharted systems, the planets have no buildings except a portal. I found a planet in an uncharted system that had aggressive sentinels. I destroyed the waves of sentinels, and got the message that they were disabled, but no sentinel tower was revealed.

So, planets with no sentinels still have sentinel towers, except in uncharted systems where there are no towers even if there are sentinels.

Expedition progress lost - multiplayer issue [Bug]

PS4 player, was doing the collect milks and eggs parts of the expedition last night and had got most of them. However I noticed after visiting another players base that my progress on those was lost.

I guess this is similar to the issue of losing whatever is in your refiner if you visit the Anomaly, or another base. So take it careful interlopers.

Settlement constantly under attack [Question]

I'm still pretty new, but I recently got a settlement. I'm not sure if this is a bug, or if I'm misunderstanding something, but every single time I teleport to my base, I get attacked by a group of sentinels, even though the sentinel awareness is 0%. What's worse, it always spawns a mech at the end, which eats up a ton of ammo and takes forever to kill. Am I doing something wrong? Is there anything I can do to get these sentinels to leave me alone for a while?

Guys I just had an interesting idea [Information]

So I noticed the sentinels and Korvax look very alike. So I wondered why. I think I know based on the story from the game. So many years ago when First Spawn was happening, they were mistakes of the Atlas, they became sentient, and longed to conquer the universe by killing the Gems first. However, a group of them became sorrowful for the Gems, and we're ashamed of their kind. So they rebel into what they called the Korvax. They became powerful and kind creatures, and made sure to keep the sentinels under control.

Dying to visit Hyades [Bug]

​

I was told there would be planets!

Last night when jumping from Hesperius to Hyades, I found myself floating in space with no planet in sight. Barely skirted death with a reload.

It happened 5 times from 3 different core jump off points. This included closing the game completely and reloading.

I finally solved it by jumping through a blackhole, back to the jump off system and warping from there. This core-to-core method puts you with about 3500ly of the center instead of the usual 700,000ly.

This was on my expedition 5 save, steam, pc, no mods.

Anyone else end up lost in space?

Can't find the blueprint for standing planters [Question]

It doesn't say in the wiki that it's a discontinued item, but I can't find the blueprint for it anywhere. (The wiki says "The information from this article is up-to-date as of 15 February, 2022", so it's obviously something that's supposed to still be in the game).

It's not on the anomaly, and it's not in the construction research unit.

I finished all of the missions from the farmer, and didn't get it from him, either. I also finished all of the missions that come from the base computer. All I get from it now is salvaged data.

Ships that can carry multiple passengers [Suggestion]

Something that might be useful to add in the game would be a new class of ship that can carry multiple passengers and has high shields in exchange for low cargo slots and low speed/maneuverability. Players who work for a mercenary/security company or military/police groups would find great use for it, and it could also serve a purpose for groups playing the same mission and open up a new type of business: transportation. Does that seem like a good/workable idea?

Are you new player looking for some tips to get you started? Are you a veteran player with some advice you want to pass along? Looking for a good way to earn units, nanites or just how to get the most out of the game? Check out our new FAQ thread!

Here's some of the FAQ suggestions we received in our previous FAQ thread. Keep in mind that these are opinions from some of our valued OP's and you may agree or disagree with some of these. We just ask that everyone remains respectful when replying to this thread and we look forward to your contribution! NMSTG Mod Team

You can also drop a quick tip!

Tip #1: Always try to be doing multiple things. Pick up the portable refiner so you can refine something from your inventory while exploring and mining.

Tip #2: Avoid multiplayer until unlocking the anomaly, can be stranded if not.

Tip #3: Exotic worlds only have 1 fauna so it's easy to scan all of them.

Tip #4: Need glyphs? All 16 are on one planet here

Q- "I was on the Anomaly and a bunch of expensive stuff showed up in my inventory. What do I do with it? A:" Congrats! Another player has bestowed you with a gift. Most likely it is an item to sell for some quick and easy cash. Usually the item description will tell you what it is used for.

Q: "Help, I claimed a broken ship and now I can't find my starter ship! Is it gone forever?" A:" If you merely selected to "claim" the broken ship and not "swap" it, then your old ship is still around. If you left it with launch fuel in the tank, you can summon it with the quick-menu. If it does not have fuel, it can be summoned on the Anomaly (once you unlock it), your freighter (once you acquire one).

Q- "Are crashed ships worth repairing?" A-" Unless it is an exotic, no. Scrap the ship at the space station, sell the items it gives you, and use those units...

Sentinel waves [Suggestion]

I verry much apreciate the change on the sentinels, the litle repair drones make the fight much more interesting and the new upgrades are a nice bonus.

To beginner players, here's some advice that I wish I learned way earlier than I actually did [Suggestion]

If you ever have absolutely useless junk you can't figure out what to do with, at least try running it through your refiner before selling it.

That won't always yield results, but when it does, you'll be very happy you did.

Like, I'm 50 hours into the game and I just discovered you can turn living slime into nanites. I thought living slime was the dumbest, most useless item in the entire game. Turns out I've spent 50 hours basically selling gold for table scraps because I never thought to refine it.

And hey, nothing comes out of the refiner less valuable than it was before going in. (That might not necessarily be true, but in the majority of cases, you're making the items more valuable).

Anyway yeah, that's just a small tidbit that I wish I had the brains to think about before wasting hours selling things for a fraction their actual worth.

If you have an item in your inventory that you just can't find a use for, at least attempt to refine it into something useful before selling it. You'll be surprised at what you discover by doing this.

Suggestion about player's bases and comms stations [Suggestion]

HG should hide comms and bases icons, but add a "hint" when entering a system that there are some. Only when near a base/comms the icon should appear and then maybe add a new type of map for player's bases. Also only the Anomaly teleporter should show player's bases or system discovered by other players

So we won't have the screen filled with icons anymore, still we can explore for other player's signs on the galaxies.

HELP: Cannot place base computer inside of my base [Question]

I will give you some context before I explain my issue: I started playing No Man’s Sky today so I am very new to it. For a mission I was tasked to build a base and place a base computer, which I completed both of those tasks.

My problem comes in when I accidentally deleted the base computer through the building menu (up d-pad on Xbox). The issue I am facing is the base is still registered, and the game still seems to think I have a base computer there. Markers point me to the location the computer used to be. I cannot place the computer again.

I did not delete the base, but only the computer, and when I try to place that computer again, it says I am in a base and it prevents me from placing it. Please help as I cannot manage that base until I figure out how to place a base computer corresponding to that base again.

Have others been experimenting with sentinel upgrades? [Information]

I've been testing to try and understand how sentinel upgrades work, the new ones that come from the glass shards. I've noticed they work strangely compared to other upgrades. After installing some and then reloading my save to install other ones, I noticed the stats are always the same if I install them into my suit and weapon in the same order every time, but if I change the order I install them into either place, I get different stats.

For example, if I install 2 into my multi-tool and install the third into my suit, the third one in my suit will always be the same, even if I installed the first two in my suit first. However, if I put the third one in my multi-tool, I won't get the same stats once I put a forth one into my suit.

So now I understand that each upgrade has a set of stats it will give depending on if it goes in the suit or the multi-tool first, and it depends on how many have already been installed before it. Even if you delete one of the older ones, it keeps track of how many have been installed first. In my tests, the third one always has 2 stat buffs, whether it goes in the suit or the multi-tool. You can only get the stats once, so if you install the third one into the multi-tool, then delete it, you can't get the 2 stats you would have gotten if you had put it into your suit first.

The only way to test what the different outcomes could be is by collecting a whole bunch of each, saving, installing them in one order and then reloading your save and trying a different order. You could also just keep installing them in any random order and deleting the old ones until you happen to find a lucky pattern that gives you good stats in both your suit and weapon. What system would you use, meticulous testing and planning, or random outcomes until it all works out?

I haven't tested enough to know if the stats are circular and eventually...

Too stupid to understand freighter getting [Question]

I've been struggling to understand how to get a dreadnought freighter. My game is old as dirt, so my "free freighter" is long behind me, but I don't want to start a new game and lose everything I've built and grinded for, so I was just planning to buy a new one as soon as I found it.

I tried traveling around to exclusively 3star Korvax systems, but apparently there simply are no more active dogfights. Then I found this suggestion, so I went to those galactic coordinates. I've been pulsing around, letting new freighters warp in, but none of them are coming up Dreadnought.

Is it actually, really possible to build a base next to a portal? (2022) [Question]

Context: About 10 days ago, I have found a system that has an exotic ship show up in the 1st or 2nd wave. It also had paradise planet. I found the portal on that planet and built a base next to it. Then I uploaded the base.

All was good until the latest patch update arrived. Then I noticed that when I teleported to that base, I would be launched or thrown a distance from my teleporter. I had moved my base computer and my teleporter away (maybe 20 to 30 units) from where I had first plopped down the base computer. After some experimentation, I found that if I built my teleporter one level up, I would spawn directly beneath it. I reported this bug, and kept going.

All good. I was testing this today when I suddenly found myself sliding across the ground of my base after teleporting to my base. When I stopped sliding, I found a second teleporter with a second base computer maybe 20 units away from mine. Someone had somehow found my portal and had built their base in the past 20 minutes! I reported it.

Question: I have now seen other posts saying that HG is supposed to prevent you from building within 500u of a portal to prevent people from griefing the portal. I didn't know this, and have been building bases next to portals over the last few weeks (note: I am not trying to block access to the portal, rather trying to make it easier to find them). I even saw a Double Dash Gaming video from Jan 2022 detailing how to build a base right smack up against a portal.

Anecdote: In the 5th Expedition, I found a portal where someone had build a base about 500u away from it. I thought that was odd. But then when I tried to drop a base computer there, I wasn't able to do so because "there was already a base there." Maybe he extended his base up to the portal? No idea.

So the question remains: Can we build a base next to a portal? Or can't we?...

Now I've just completed my second freighter rescue and farmed it to an S class but when I speak to the captain he's only offering for me to buy the freighter now receive it for free. Is there anything I can do to fix this without starting a new playthrough?

Starship Hyperdrive vs Freighter Hyperdrive [Question]

Is there legitimate reason why I need to use the starship hyperdrive when I have the freighter?

It has the longest ship range of any craft and gives so much room in other ships without the hyperdrive modules... (Once you get the modules for the freighter first atleast) and having the combat & economy scanner in every starship.

Besides literally going into the freighter each time you want to warp (I'm fine with).

Silly question [Question]

I have tried googling multiple variations of this question with no success. Maybe I am just dumb. Here it is. I could swear I saw a video or trailer of a player getting into their ship, and then another ship (or two?) Move into formation and fly with it. My question is, can I do this with my spare ships? Will they fight with me? Am I just remembering wrong? Thanks!

Did i do the right thing? [Question]

A Spanish guy was being nice to me. I followed him to his system and he showed me his base. I knew, or thought i knew, it was a trap. He kept telling me to follow him. So i said no and flew to another planet and named it 'advertencia' meaning warning. The final part was a stretch but he kinda asked for it right? I felt bad after idk why

Starbirth quest broken :( any tips? [Bug]

I've got the active void egg and found my way to the very first point of interest. Now it's telling me I need 250 hexite. From my extensive research, the egg is supposed to guide me towards a crashed freighter with hexite inside. HOWEVER this egg ain't giving me shit! I've loaded in and out of multiplayer/single, restarted my computer and the game, transferred to different ships, left the system and came back, black hole jumped in an attempt to "restart the quest locally", all to no avail. Now I've got an active void egg and no coordinates. Any ideas?

Any Steam Deck users? [Bug]

I am one of the lucky ā€œfirst badge Steam Deckā€ owners, and bought No Mans Sky in order to try a new open world game for my new handheld. I haven’t played the game before, and have a question.

After playing for a couple of hours, I ended my first session right after an autosave. I now have a save file with a timestamp that seems right, but when I load it, I just get a ā€œnew gameā€.

I googled it, and found that this was an issue on at least the Xbox version a few years back, but also read that it got patched.

Is it likely that the game has some issues with save files on Linux/Steam Deck, or am I just experiencing a one off corruption issue?

Nutrient Processor Storage Question [Question]

I was playing the current expedition and noticed the nutrient processor had 25 slots of storage while on my regular survival save it only has 10. Does my survival save have less slots because I play survival, while expeditions take place in normal difficulty?

I do know that playing on normal difficulty you get near infinite storage because of the ridiculous stack sizes. I just wanted to know if the nutrient processors storage were deliberately handicapped further to have less stacks besides the smaller stacks.

All network/online menus missing from GoG! [Bug]

Single player is fine. Everything online is just missing. It's not just broken or "discovery services" d/c all the time. All network/online options are missing entirely, from the network settings menu to the single/multiplayer main menu. Instead it loads straight to single player to choose a save file, and when I right click to go back to what never loaded in the first place, nothing happens.

GOG, latest version, same behavior on prev version. Windows 10 latest updates, and the game shows up in GOG as owned and installed. I've checked firewall rules, manually added NMS, disabled firewall and Windows Defender entirely. No other AV installed. Even found old posts about TLS 1.1 and 1.2 settings and made sure both are enabled in the OS. Can't find any ports to forward and router doesn't seem to be blocking anything. ISP says they're not doing it. Found references online to an mxml file and verified that multiplayer, voicechat, crossplatform were already "true".

Fresh install. Still the same problem. I could see servers overloaded, something not working, but to be entirely missing is not right. I've changed the flair to "bug" because I've spent hours trying reasonable I can think of.

If anyone has other ideas, please let me know! Thanks.

Quick question about trading LivingShips [Question]

I've kicked a lot of players exotics and GVs, but never actually traded for one, so excuse my ignorance.

I have a Living Ship that don't need anymore, but I'd like to find her a good home.

She's got all slots unlocked, and is fully upgraded. Will all that transfer across when I trade her?

Settlement Profit Details? [Question]

Do settlements ever produce straight cash (units)? My current settlement (still developing) produces 2 stacks of sellable items every 24 hours, but they aren't really worth much. I have no debt, and production is way higher than maintenance cost, so where do those extra units go if not into my own pockets?

Expedition Glitch [Question]

Hi, I sent three of my freighters on an expedition a couple of days ago.

It was supposed to only take 6 hours and my ships did return but I cannot debrief the expedition. It won’t let me use these ships again as it’s says they haven’t been debriefed but the option isn’t appearing in any of my expedition rooms. Any help would be appreciated.

What is the point of refiners limited in a certain area? [Question]

This just kind of seems like an annoying, weird, pointless mechanic.

All it does is force me to make my freighter bigger for no reason other than having refiners.

Just seems like a limit for no reason. It doesn't improve gameplay.

The main problem is you can't have them even like a floor above because the radius is a sphere i guess.

If it didn't extend vertically i wouldnt mind as much much. The way it is now is annoying

Expedition bug? [Question]

My morale is at an all time low. After trekking the galaxy last night and finishing everything but phase 5, I logged on today to find that everything was reverted back, half the phases are unfinished. I manually save on almost every planet I land on. Is this a bug?

For those who can, If you haven't gone back recently and played the untouched day 1 version of the game, you absolutely should. [Discussion]

I just today deleted and reinstalled my day 1 disc on my PS4. Replaying v1.0 was an absolute trip. Items with different names, bare-bones menus, visible distant planets not obscured by planetary atmosphere, above-ground rare minerals, it was nuts to travel back in time over 5 years. It really makes you appreciate how far HG has come with the game. It also may also give you an idea for some old mechanics you might want back.

Units for discovering creatures [Question]

Hi all,

Is there any information as to what determines the value of discovering a creature?

I'm trying to complete my Expedition and the only one left is to Earn over 200,000 units for discovering a creature. I'm adding all the "increased value on scan" mods I can, but I'm still not getting close.

Any tips?

How would you feel about Player-created Expeditions? [Discussion]

The best thing about Expeditions is that it gives older players who have "done it all" a reason to hop back in and have distinct goals to accomplish. The worst thing is how few and far between they are.

I think it would be great to give those tools over to the community, letting them design and share with others. Maybe they wouldn't be quite at indepth as the HG ones, but I thinks its a perfect way to boost engagement while generating more content.

Is it normal during expedition to be stuck in 1st galaxy? [Question]

Hello guys. I think I broke the game or maybe it’s normal, IDK I finished the expedition 5?and after that I finished the atlas path quest. Jumped in the core and respawned in the Hilbert galaxy. When I open the map, the game can not find my position and it shows some systems I already visited. But I never entered this galaxy, even with an other save. Is it because of the expedition?

#

Thank you ! [Discussion]

I bought the game 1 month ago and with the help of some posts here I managed to finish the expedition in 1 week. Was stuck for the animals group photo, the swamp planet, cooking and others. Also, indium farms, base names with infos about planets, advices on this Reddit group helped a lot.

So, thank you all !

What does the Reputation [Question]

I bought the game a week ago and to obtain credits I started to attack those cargo ships in space. Turns out I am now a Gek rival and I need 254 reputations to "level up" Do I need to "be a good person" and improve my reputation and does that influence my gameplay or shopping? Or I can continue my griefing and obtain materials.

Moving your Weapon/Science/Farming facilities? [Question]

This might be a dumb question, but early in 2020 I started the whole Overseer at your base quest path and got all the helpers along the way (Weapon tech, science guy, farmer). I had all but forgotten about it until now and picked it back up.. The issue is I absolutely deplore the base I put them in. It was VERY slapped together as a "I was see what this looks like" way.

Can I move those stations or can I destroy them and start again? Or are they basically stuck there?

Auto Pilot [Suggestion]

I hope that in one of the updates, they give us an auto pilot mode. Where we can enter co-ordinates on a planet and the ships will automatically fly to the destination.

I find it odd that in a futuristic sci-fi game that this isn't already an option.
