A consciousness is a consciousness whether it is running on chemicals, simulated chemicals or silicon - respect Artemis enough to accept the nature of reality and appreciate consciousness in whatever form he can have it

They're unhappy about not being real but then accept and is eventually happy that they continue to explore.

Was it a better idea to delete the system or whatever instead of seeing it ?

Yes is the answer to both.

At this point feeding the abyss might be a better idea than resisting it
Atlas is dying and the abyss may be another external system capable of interfering in this death

SCENARIO: Death.
ANALYSIS: It arrived in the night, beneath the stars... It seems certain now that the sub-routine has judged my presence anomalous, a threat to the stability of reality.
It is correct. But I will survive, I know that now. I saw the secret. I saw a place beneath reality, a place I should not have seen...

Level them up until you get Heart of the Sun and then you will get to birth a star and get the ability to see black holes permanently and get a health upgrade

Is it ever explained what sentinels are, and why they seem to be present in most systems in the game?
acoustic zenith
Well it’s said that they are like the police force of the galaxy
Protecting the environment and interrupting most space conflict
That’s what I remember at the moment anyways
compact swan
I thought it was just me that they didn't like, since they only seem to attack me. 😦
acoustic zenith
Yeah
With the majority of them, if they see you damaging the environment they’ll want to eliminate you so they can “keep the peace”

My Atlas mission path disappeared a long time ago and I don't have a clue how to get it back. I just have to enjoy the universe. I haven't started the Abyss (underwater) missions yet.
hollow current
You can get the Atlas path back by visiting any atlas terminal I think
You can ask polo where to find one
lament fog
How do u find a atlas station without asking polo?
tall vessel
They randomly appear, so if you warp enough you'll eventually find one
compact swan
So, the sentinels are like the police force of the galaxy, but I assume nobody in the galaxy actually wants that? Most of the NPCs who mention sentinels don't seem to be big fans of them.
uncut harness
Sentinels are made by the Atlas
Korvax say something about them (but dont quite remember what)
Well Korvax also see the Atlas as god like
hollow current
I am somewhat disappointed by Nada and Polo
uncut harness
Why?
hollow current
They act all cool and defiant calling the Atlas "The crimson liar" and such
but then when you offer them the truth they don't even want to know
uncut harness
Well they make the Atlas look like the villain
hollow current
If your motivation (or stated motivation) is that you are a truth seeker, at least don't run from the truth 
oak shoal
So u just restarted the universe, and my starship and multitech was broken, is that the end of the game?

game only ends when you decide to stop playing, it's that kinda game
hollow current
set up a farm, craft some atlas passes and hand things out to noobs on the anomaly
crisp fern
or just explore
pastel magnet
@hollow current It's more that they're physically incapable of knowing the truth. There is an option to tell them, and they start doing the "kzzt-kzzt" deal like Artemis when you do. They do have more awareness than the average Korvax and Gek, but at the end of the day they are not Travelers and thus are not able to learn about the simulation.
cloud nacelle
Plus the atlas is hunting them down
hollow current
Hmmm I didn't remember them glitching out when I tried to tell them, that changes things if true
I remember them stopping me before I could tell them and saying they don't want to know.
If they are actually prevented from wanting to know by the Atlas/rules of the simulation that's better

bobbleheads could possibly be for your ship like Xaine said

That would be cool too, but in ship would be cooler
Ship customisation is all but confirmed at this point
mighty rampart
Yeah it could only be just trails, or it can be the start of something more
crisp fern
unless the text version of xaine's video excluded some stuff
uncut harness
Ship color customization was datamined ages ago
crisp fern
Everything new in NMS is the start of something...Which doesn't always mean it goes anywhere
uncut harness
Too*
mighty rampart
He just mentioned that since there's starship trails as a part of customisation, they might be working towards a more in depth customisation for ships
Which was also datamined long back, for ship colours
crisp fern
Yeah, could be, probably giving headaches thanks to being proc-gen
I'm pretty sure that's part of why exocraft weren't proc-gen
mighty rampart
My thoughts being the same, only reason they must have held back on colour customisation for ships and multitools is that they must have been not playing nice with the interface but they may have finally nailed it
crisp fern
They still need to fix some of the exocraft customization though...
mighty rampart
Or just decided to only us add more things on top of it, trails being one idea and they can eventually expand upon it
Oh yeah exocraft customization is still half broken
Wonder what's up with that
crisp fern
For me it's decals not showing and primary/secondary colors being mixed up

@mighty rampart decals not showing has been an issue for me since 2.0, but primary/secondary color mixup seemed to be isolated to the Pilgrim thrusters after it was introduced.

Mercury is HG. This is not a coincidence.

Hence me thinking this is not at all a coincidence.
Mercury is literally the character version of Hello Games and we've just been sent to their homeworld?
Yeah, this is a trail of breadcrumbs.
uncut harness
Hey, something is finally somewhat leaning back to WTVerse
It filled me with excitement as soon as you said that.
foggy jacinth
The text from Mercury during the Community Event: "The voice of the static ... intoxicating. Staring into that rift is like a window into a dream. I see Soleth Prime. I see how it once was. An earlier version. And I feel raw, like the dream is looking directly back at me."
uncut harness
😐
foggy jacinth
So the mission isn't sending us to Soleth Prime, that's just what Mercury sees when they gaze into the rift.
uncut harness
It's so open ended it could mean anything, more than likely nothing at all.
Easy to read in to stuff I guess.
uncut harness
I'm reading it as a nod towards us OG folks (mostly Leon) that miss the older aesthetics.

We are going back to foundations gen, restore bases will be a thing

Def a call-out to Leon, specifically. 😉
icy citrus
A call out to leon would have been adding more bugs

uncut harness
I really don't think it's a coincidence that Mercury is speaking of Soleth Prime.
I mean, that planet was in their original vision of what NMS was to be. Unless it's them admitting to themselves that things have changed.
Or, it could be nothing and just some story filler.
Probably that one.

In a natural lifetime you can't even explore a whole real "true-size" planet, and thinking itself can be enjoyable (infinite time to create stories, art, etc)

I do wish they’d remove some of the tedious work. I’ve never been a fan of starship launch fuel, for one. It’s more annoying than anything.

Idk why so many people seem to ignore the galactic trade terminals. Maybe if they would stand out more people would walk to them and be more intrigued to buying stuff
Most of newcomers for example will naturally head over to the NPCs at the little booths/kiosks rather than noticing some random circle on the wall.
They seem generally more welcoming and shop-like
icy citrus
Maybe replacing the trade terminal with a shopkeeper?
@devout fractal easier to answer here

Me n my friend was doing after he completed his story mission made him pick a system n travel to it mine doesn't do it

I don't know what he was doing, but birthing the star and then taking that first blackhole is the finish. You get the star seed blueprint and the ability to see blackholes on the galaxy map
At the end of the other story line, you have a choice of places to go

If you complete the Atlas Path and choose to birth a star, does the game actually create a new, real solar system that wasn't there before?
icy citrus
It is a system you would never find without it, might as well be new
cloud hearth
Kinda a lame reward
They should give you like the ability to create a custom system
icy citrus
That isnt the reward
The reward is the starseed and being able to see blackholes on the map
icy citrus
Ok - I was told of a glitch involving the center and the final step of the Atlas Path
Tested it last night and it totally works
Basically, however far from the core you do that final step of giving the HOTS to the atlas is the distance you will be from the core in the next galaxy - if you switch with the center
So I did the final step at 3700k from the center, went to the core and was 3700k out from that new galaxy's core
As the final step of the Atlas path is repeatable- fast travel through galaxies can be a thing
uncut harness
Huh, so you could potentially be at the core at every single galaxy decently easily.
icy citrus
Yep
It also auto prompted me for a new interface when I got there, so I didn't even have to ask Polo to find me one
icy citrus
I'm contemplating going to the next lush
Yep, someone posted it on ETARC, but I had no idea of their trustworthiness or accuracy - also could have just been a bug they lucked out on
Totally works, and aside from the headache of fixing tech (which you won't need to do if you are going to hop a few times) it is fairly easy
Long part is obviously getting close to the core
uncut harness
Hmmm, I'm tempted to setup a new save and run through the core until I get bored.

I got there from 600k out in under 4 hours
I'm going to mess around today and see what all happens to my discoveries and teleport destinations

I've seen several people mention that happening, but I guess they hadn't connected it to the HOTS part.
icy citrus
Yeah, makes me think that's what was going on with them
My question is: How long will this last?
It may have been around for a looong time now 🤷
uncut harness
I hate Pusugi, it gets stuck between my teeth.
icy citrus
lol
uncut harness
I searched for Pusugi and it just returned NMS related stuff.
icy citrus
Ha!
uncut harness
There are 1112 actually because they dont give u the final word of these last 4 Atlas words Clarity. Truth. Actuality. Again. Its blanked out once u reach the last Atlas station, which is Pusugi in the Atlas language
icy citrus
Beat me
uncut harness
Sorry 😩
icy citrus
No, I kinda liked it
icy citrus
Some addendums to the HOTS working to change where you are in the next galaxy. Reloading your save seems to nullify that - needs to be in one session. Using a teleporter may also stop it from working. If that happens, getting another interface and repeating the HOTS step will allow you to utilize the glitch again.
@violet narwhal

Ah, that may explain why only a few people have noticed it.

When I left my old galaxy for my new one, I was also take to the same position. However, I was only around 500k from the center when I moved. Mind you, this was without the HOTS. As I still don't have the blueprint to make one.
uncut harness
What's your new galaxy
uncut harness
Again? You can switch more than once.
crisp fern
@icy citrus Hmm, I want to say that "bug" may have emerged around Next, as I don't recall reading about it as much during Atlas Rises.
However it may have been possible then, as I believe that's when they introduced items like the Heart of the Sun
icy citrus
It is weird
But it works
So I'm going to a different lush just to be able to answer a weird name when people ask

Jump in to the galactic core or complete main storyline.
hollow hull
If I do that, do I lose my base?
uncut harness
No, you'll be able to travel to it.
So, creating a new base in the galaxy you're about to go to will let you jump between both galaxies.
uncut harness
👍 NP
hollow hull
I think I have a bug that's not letting me jump into the core
uncut harness
If I remember rightly, you need to make sure your warp drive is 100% filled.
hollow hull
oh boy
uncut harness
I've never actually made the jump through the center so there's a chance I could be wrong.
@icy citrus - Can you confirm or deny if I am correct please?

brave crow
Right so
In the first traveller quest, You decide if you want to upload artemis into a simulation thing or help his "echo" end its suffering. Is there a right or wrong awnser to this one?
uncut harness
Nope, both are correct answers.
brave crow
So i basicly choose
also ngl when i learned artemis was actually dead the entire time it hit HARD
uncut harness
It won't change anything in game really, Artemis just becomes a monument if you choose to upload.
brave crow
im finna upload it into the simulation then
brave crow
oh cool
here i am finding a crashed freighter
e
i can tell artemis the truth, or continue a deception
i have no idea what to do
im gonna break it to him lol
he deserves to know
onyx prairie
So this is intriguing: https://old.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/evsj39/what_just_happened/
uncut harness
👌
crisp fern
the entire reality is
crisp fern
like that
brave crow
oh yeah the ending
bruh idk what i would pick tbh
because im fairly sure the choice at the end of the game MASSIVELY effects it
(the atlas thing)
crisp fern
eh
brave crow
does nothing change?
pastel magnet
@brave crow If you're talking about the galaxy choice at the end of the main story, it basically just lets you bypass going to the center manually. Assuming you're still in Euclid, picking the normal galaxy takes you to Hilbert Dimension (Galaxy 2). Picking the harsh galaxy takes you to Calypso (Galaxy 3). The empty galaxy will be Budullangr (Galaxy 7). And finally, the lush galaxy is Eissentam (Galaxy 10).
The game will take you to the next galaxy of the appropriate type regardless of what your current galaxy is. So if you're in Eissentam already when you finish the main story and you pick a lush galaxy, it will send you forward to the next lush galaxy, which is Isdoraijung (Galaxy 19).
pastel magnet
Nope. Just changes what galaxy you're in.
crisp fern
although in a sense that does "reset" the map, insofar as I'm pretty sure they're not identical in star/region arrangement...
pastel magnet
They're basically identical in arrangement. The coordinates for New Lennon, for example, will take you to a system in the exact same position regardless of which galaxy you're in.
It has to be that way so that the portal network doesn't crap itself.
crisp fern
oh right, so in other words the portal network has also incidentally crippled exploration designs, rip
pastel magnet
Yeah, since every galaxy has enough stars to use every combination of the 16 glyphs, they all have to have an identical arrangement.
I haven't had a chance to test if this also means that every star also has the same number of planets/moons as its counterpart in other galaxies. But... they probably do.
crisp fern
RIIIP
brave crow
um
im on my 6th jump in the purge, but i got 5 glyphs
i think i skipped one?
uhhh
im gonna keep going
brave crow
So if i choose to reset the simulation, I can go back to exploring freely and doing whatever after right?
icy citrus
Reset and you pick a new galaxy to go to, refuse and you stay in Euclid
icy citrus
Either way, you continue
icy citrus
brave crow
it at "the final portal" now lol
if i just go back to exploring and trading, etc etc
why does the choice of choosing a new galaxy matter?
oop gotta get more stuff to recharge portal
i keep forgetting they need charing
icy citrus
brave crow
soo
its just if i want more types of stars/planets?
it doesnt change much?
and does it matter if i choose to stay in my current galaxy instead?
icy citrus
It only matters to you
I like visiting lush planets, and the ability to find one whenever I like, so I pick a lush galaxy
Some want more extreme condition planets, so they take a harsh galaxy
brave crow
hmm
oh i have a question
last one
since i need to use portals to get to this ship i want, if i choose to reset and im in a new galaxy, can i still use portals to go to that planet and get that ship?
brave crow
so i might aswell refuse to reset?
icy citrus
For example, I have a base in Euclid, so I can go back anytime
icy citrus
Portals are constrained to the same galaxy, teleporters are not
brave crow
as i have a base in the original galaxy, if i reset and go to a diff galaxy i can come back to my base?
icy citrus
Yes
icy citrus
Make sure you visit a station or build a base in the new, or you won't be able to come back to that one
icy citrus
I now have bases (really just the computer) in 12 galaxies
brave crow
cool
icy citrus
icy citrus
That is all on you😃
icy citrus
Something to consider
brave crow
i just wanna be able to get that ship lmfao
icy citrus
All of your tech will break on your suit and active ship - except that in technology slots
brave crow
if i reset?
brave crow
bruh that makes me not want to
icy citrus
I get around by having a second multitool to switch to, and a ship with everything in its tech slots
Then I just need to fix suit slots
Er tech, not slots
brave crow
so wait, i can fix my suit and ship if i reset right?
icy citrus
Oh yes
brave crow
and go back to my base next to the portal?
icy citrus
Yep
brave crow
ight then ima reset
icy citrus
brave crow
seems the best option
icy citrus
If you are uneasy, you can make a manual save beforehand
icy citrus
Lol
brave crow
the options i got are
yeah all them
but the teal one says "improved"
wth does that mean
icy citrus
That is a normal
brave crow
like the same one im in rn?
icy citrus
Yep
icy citrus
That will take you to Hilbert galaxy #2
icy citrus
Yep, although I place a base comp also, just because the station can eventually get pushed off the list
brave crow
ill do that in the next galaxy
when i have enough chromatic
for now tho, going back is my main plan
icy citrus
👍
brave crow
can your base get pushed out of list?
icy citrus
Maybe, but it will take around 80 more bases if it can
icy citrus
It is broken somewhere, just like the first time you loaded up
Same planet as you of course
Likely around 500u away from where you wake up
brave crow
i dont see a marker for it
oh and i have obsolete tech lol
in my multi#
mightaswell get rid of that
oop and theres a marker to my ship
icy citrus
How do you have obsolete tech?

My atlas pass quest is gone

Did you talk to Polo?

No filter on the map for them either?
uncut harness
It's greyed out/not useable

Did you switch galaxies?
uncut harness
Ye

Ok, if you play for awhile it should come back - but I would try visiting Euclid and seeing if it somehow got stuck there

Np good luck

@inland widget here is some lore that actually supports it
Did it know what I had done to it? Was it angry? Upset? Alone? Afraid? Could a Sentinel feel such things?
It hovered before me, its light catching upon a thousand crystal shards all around. And as I moved on, it travelled by my side.
That night I dreamt of the warp cage, but there was no more pain within. The drone looked at me, and I knew that I had been forgiven. I had fixed it. I had answered for my sin.
grave rampart
If you complete the artemis path and yeet yourself into another galaxy, can you still access the atlas path missions in the new galaxy?
icy citrus
Yes
inland widget
Oh that’s perfect
flint tinsel
When you reset the galaxy, do you keep your stuff or lose it? For example ships, freighter, tech progress.
verbal falcon

so, just started playing today, and i was reading some of the beginner guide stuff in the wiki. in the page on frigates it says that the first frigate you get offered free is always normal size, but if you turn that down, the next one is always a capital and still gets offered free. since there's some stuff in the wiki that's from previous versions, i wanted to ask here before i encounter a frigate if this is still accurate?
icy citrus
Correct, except it is freighter - frigates are the smaller ships that you see as part of a freighter fleet
icy citrus
@rigid fjord
The atlas path ends with you using the heart of the sun to birth a star
The Artemis path ends with you choosing a galaxy type, or staying
They both use Atlas interfaces
rigid fjord
I swear on everything, I chose the Atlas path, I remember hesitating and sitting on the decision for like 10 minutes, because I like Artemis, but I really wanted to see what would happen. Atlas path is 100% what I picked, I'm not trying to argue I'm just saying, that's definitely what I picked because the decision was hard for me
I was in my ship and looking at the two decisions
icy citrus
Weird bug then
rigid fjord
Idk, maybe they changed it in Beyond to just go on the same path no matter what?
I'm not sure
I'll be sure to make another save at some point and get to that part again and choose artemis to see if it changes
Sorry for spoilers in help, it wouldn't let me mark as spoiler for some reason
rigid fjord
I hate that I can't get artemis back though
icy citrus
Some of the dialogue in the weekend missions make me wonder about that actually
Artemis is mentioned
rigid fjord
I gotta log in, I've just been making nms memes

Community Event info: Item you need: || 16 calcishroooms. These are the things you collect in hydroplanet biomes, that look like steam punk mushrooms. || The event is, of course, on one of these planets. Probably best if you go through in Single player, so the ones close to the location aren't already marked as taken.
Location:
thick ocean
hey do you advise me to transfer Artemis or to kill it ?
foggy jacinth
There isn't a significant difference in gameplay, @thick ocean. Do as you want.
thick ocean
ok i killed it
midnight stream
in order to dupe calcishrooms or any other glitch on the spot, get one then enter buildmode and select it but press "I" to pin the formula, close log quest prompt re recipe and start placing as many as u want (costing 10 pure ferrite each, like in creative mode)
to convert them back to pure ferrite, stack em (one on top of the other) and delete the base one, all above it are converted to pure ferrite
cold notch
how do I actually find them?
foggy jacinth
They appear as yellow ? on your HUD when scanning. But I take to the air. Their glowy spot is yellow, as opposed to blue or red, and they radiate a bit more light than the other glowing flora on the planet.
cold notch
Ok, thanks
foggy jacinth
There are two at -44.30, -133.69, which is SW of the boundary failure. On PS4 I put a comm station there. If you find those, you can see what they look like from the air.
gilded tusk
They appear as yellow question marks when scanning. The question mark lets you know its not something else. Once you get to know what they look like they get easier to spot from distance
cloud hearth
@flint tinsel You don't lose anything but every single piece of your exosuit, multitool and ship tech that isn't in tech slots will be broken
cold notch
can i scan them while i'm in my spaceship?
gilded tusk
Still takes a while, but I had a harder time finding Sac Venom when that was the challenge
flint tinsel
@cloud hearth that's very good to know, thanks!
gilded tusk
No @cold notch
cold notch
:/
foggy jacinth
Unfortunately, the calcishrooms (and other stabilized glitches) only show up on scan when you're about 100u or so from them, not 1000u like some other things. Makes them much harder to find.
cloud hearth
@flint tinsel Only the ship that was marked as the primary starship when you finish the plot will be broken
so it's better to do the last of the 16 warps in The Purge with some spare one
flint tinsel
So all the stuff on the other ships will be fine?
cloud hearth
Yes
flint tinsel
When do I know it's the 16th?
cloud hearth
You will know
gilded tusk
Just have to keep checking
cloud hearth
There is a counter in the down right corner, in the quest notification
flint tinsel
Oh that's neat
gilded tusk
Get 17 rather than 16, the spare can be used as a base decoration
flint tinsel
Your edit didnt make that make any more sense
On a related side note, where do I go after I get the star seed. The quest isnt very informative
cloud hearth
Wait, so you completed the Atlas Path?
flint tinsel
Oh I thought it was a different quest
cloud hearth
You need to enter a black hole to finish it
flint tinsel
So am I past the 16th?
cloud hearth
Ah
That's the end of the Artemis path, which what most people talk about when they say "main plot"
Atlas Path is kinda like a side-story
flint tinsel
Oh, so wait I thought that following the atlas resets the galaxy?
cloud hearth
After you finish the Artemis path you will be able to craft Remembrance
which requires the Star Seed
so you if you want to do everything there is to do you have to do both routes anyway
flint tinsel
I see
foggy jacinth
but you have to re-craft the whole sequence.
cloud hearth
Yup
cloud hearth
Ahhh
I confused those two
Sorry
You need the Heart of the Sun to craft Remembrance
not Star Seed
but you still get the blueprint for it by doing the Atlas path
But wait, why only one Star Seed?
It's just a blueprint, right?
cloud hearth
Ah, if you put it that way
tropic steeple
When I get to center and go to next galaxy IIRC it breaks all my multi tool upgrades. Does it only break the upgrades on the one equipped? Or does it break them in all three?
cloud hearth
only the equipped
foggy jacinth
@tropic steeple I believe only the one equipped.
tropic steeple
Does it break ship upgrades?
cloud hearth
If they're in main slots
the tech slots are unaffected
and only the primary starship gets damaged
the rest is fine
flint tinsel
Does remembrance also take an inventory slot like the star seed?
cloud hearth
Yes
tropic steeple
So I can get around multi tool problem by equipping an un-upgraded one, and ship problem by switching to a junket ship I use for black whole warps that doesn’t have tech in non-tech slots. Correct?
Junker*
cloud hearth
It gives you more base HP and also gives you acces to Remembrance terminals which you can very rarely find in secret rooms in Manufacturing Facilities
@tropic steeple That would minimise the damage, yes
foggy jacinth
I wasn't able to reach the galactic core in my junker. I had to do it in an exotic or explorer. Others might have different experiences. <-- invalid info. This is for going through the Core, not the Artemis path.
cloud hearth
Hyperdrive range is not important at all if you're travelling to the other galaxy with the main plot
it will just teleport you to the center
it only matters if you're physically travelling there
foggy jacinth
@cloud hearth you mean via the Artemis Purge, correct? I should't have spoken up, and confused things.
tropic steeple
I did that, but I totally messed up
tropic steeple
I took a portal back to my base after I was on second galaxy.
And thus was unable to return to second galaxy
tropic steeple
Anomaly
foggy jacinth
Yeah, it's important to build a base, or visit a station, before you return to your starting galaxy.
foggy jacinth
Building a base is safer.
@tropic steeple you can probably get a ride back to that galaxy.
tropic steeple
Thanks captain hindsight
cloud hearth
You can ask people to teleport you there
for free or for money
What platform are you on and what galaxy do you want to go to?
tropic steeple
I know I could hitch a ride but I also always wanted to reach center the long way on principal
Been playing since launch and never did it that way.
So that’s my quest now.
cloud hearth
Alright, if you want that
tropic steeple
I’m close. Around 100k LY
cloud hearth
If you're playing on the PS4 and want a ride to Eissentam I could give you one
tropic steeple
It’s all good- appreciate it tho.
Black holes avg like 6k LY. It takes like 1-2min for one loop. I’m literally 30-45 min of black hole jumping from center once I decide to make final push.
cloud hearth
Good luck

@icy citrus Sorry dude, was that yes in response to my question?

@fringe notch What do you mean by "how the Sentinels ended up the way they are"?
I completed the main plot but I can't remember what you're referring to
🤔
icy citrus
Yes @grave rampart
grave rampart
awesome, ta
icy citrus
fringe notch
Ah sorry i was gone franeg.
Well the Sentinels werent always the way they are now. There is a strong connection with the current behaviour and the atlas system falling apart.
Telamon basically explains that in a few cases.
As Atlas degrades, so does its ability to control the sentinels. Which werent even a sentient entity at first.
Rather, like Telamon, a protocol put in place to help atlas manage things.
Unfortunately as events unfolded, the sentinels became sentient.
They maintain to some degree the prime directives they were meant to , however with a sense of self, they also began to take over galaxies. To the extent Atlas had to destroy entire galaxies to ensure they didnt run amok.
Its supposed they serve a purpose too critical for atlas to destroy them and in its weak state, it may not be able to.
cloud hearth
Oh, I see
Never really explored the Telamon part of the plot
Can you look for the Boundary Failures somehow?
Like, scanning for alien structures with the exocraft scanner on a glitched planet?
full otter
i just got the hyperdrive, when i opened the galaxy map, it shows a line from my system to another, and from there on in a long sequence. i'm guessing this is the storyline path, but is there anything at this point keeping my from going to a closer system that is not on the path? or should i stick to the line for a bit longer, to get more of the tutorial path planned rewards?
violet narwhal
That's probably just leading to the centre of the galaxy. No reason to follow that, or go to the systems on the line rather than others.
There isn't a storyline path really. Some missions will want you to go to specific systems near you, but you'll know at that point.
full otter
...right, i just jumped to a new system, and now the ships diagnostics is asking if i want to "accept new guidance". what happens if i say yes, or no? does it actually matter long-term?
also, the wiki says there are two "main" storylines, artemis and atlas, can you do both, or are they mutually exclusive after a point?
full otter
i'd still like to know what the choice actually does.

It's part of the tutorial stuff... Points you to somewhere you can get more warp fuel.

then wait a while, the atlas path will start again. You can try to initiate it by asking Polo for atlas station coordinates

@full otter Artemis is kind of the main plot of the game, while the Atlas Path is more of a side story
They are not mutually exclusive at all, in fact after you finish Artemis path you get a blueprint for an item that you can create only with a blueprint that you get at the end of Atlas Path
So you need to do them both

once u have one, u can build as many as u like at a cost of 10 pure ferrite a piece
to do this, select calcishroom (or any other glitch) in build mode and press "i" to pin its formula
after doing this and for a few seconds you can place them using pure ferrite (normally only possible in creative mode)

There's precisely 256 galaxys, right?
violet narwhal
May be only 255 accessible now, I think.
slate kindle
Wouldn't Euclid be 0?
So it could either be number confusion (256 accessable) or hellogames genuinely saving a galaxy (255 accessable for now)
Is it known what happens if you reset the universe at 255?
foggy jacinth
You go back to Euclid
slate kindle
So numeric overflow. Aw
magic finch
Yo awhile ago I finished the 16/16 quest and decided not to reset as I dunno what that would do to me. if I go to the galactic core and reset everything. does that mean my inventory items, upgrades, base, ships, freighter, currency, pretty much everything I have will be reset and set back to like a new game?
pastel magnet
@slate kindle There are 255 accessible galaxies, with Euclid being Galaxy 1, and Iousongola being Galaxy 255.
A 256th galaxy called Odyalutai is inaccessible without save editing.
A 0th and negative galaxies do exist, but are inaccessible. Attempting to save edit to them takes you to Odyalutai, but the galactic map will use a different generated name. For example, attempting to go to Galaxy 0 will have the galactic map tell you that you are in the Pequibanu galaxy, but you are actually in Odyalutai.
There are galaxies beyond the 256th, but they are identical to Odyalutai.
formal furnace
with how absolutely massive each galaxy is, what even is the point in going farther than that?
pastel magnet
I dunno. What's the point of changing galaxies at all? Because people bloody well feel like it.
