Couldn't they have made it easier to get the stupid glyphs
Why does the quest line have to be a endless quest that won't give them to me
Where are you at?
@proven isle
How do people have already living ships since you have to wait 25 hours two times ?
I told them I didn't want to wait
@gentle nova We messed with our system clocks.
Oh, gotcha
Went from the find the guy who got lost in time and died to null to now patterns in time. I already used the portal to get to Atlas but I still don't got any glyphs
finish the Artemis path, or bribe travellers
you basically have to finish the main mission completely to get the glyphs as far as I know, or talk to travellers in space stations and trade outposts
So basically every single main quest and I'm really getting tired of the game automatically switching quests
It is quite annoying
use pulse drive
Pulse drive
I'm at the part that says unconventional travel needed
and the hyperdrive is so far away
Portal
The portal doesn't matter, just need any one - all planets have 1
Np
How you get the upgrades for them?
How to find a portal?
Space encounters
Im currently waiting 18 hours on the heart to mature.... how many more hours total will i be forced to wait in this quest?
Sometime the encounter is an egg, shoot that for the upgrades
@heavy dagger To find portals, first, find a monolith. There are two ways to do that.
- If you have an exocraft with upgraded scanners, you can scan for an Alien Structure.
- If you don't have an exocraft, buy some planetary charts from the cartographer on a space station.
2a) Use an Ancient Artifacts map to find a monolith. It may take a few tries, as these maps find Monoliths, Plaques and Ruins.
Once you've found a monolith, SAVE FIRST, and then answer its question. Then, activate it again and feed it the relic belonging to the species of that system (Korvax Casing, Vy'Keen dagger, Gek Relic).
It will say something about Ley Lines, and will reveal the icon for the portal on that planet.
How much is it just to get the gylphs from the travelers
@sullen sundial Finding travelers is really RNG. There's no telling how long it will take.
Yeah, it likely will be faster to just finish out the story - but I think they go for 100 nanites ?
That sounds low
Yup, 100 nanites per grave
Ty
Wait is there a way to restore everyone's memory after you reset the universe?
How far am I from the purge quest
I don't think they want to remember @spring drum
Lmao
To multitool have better spawns in richer systems?
On a side note has anyone found space stations that been trashed, like this one I'm at is damaged and looks like it's on lockdown
What anomalies can I actually interact with (destroy/land on)
@cold folio abandoned stations?
@cold folio Yes, trashed stations are a thing. π
I've apparently found one
When the egg starts humming and tells you to await contact...is it just random how long you wait?
Pulse drive
Np
sooo, how many different kinds of living ships can your first one be?
Are there any anomalies I can land on
or rather, what variations are there, does anyone know?
You gotta find tech to install
@jade jackal There have bene some screenshots of variations, maybe try reddit?
@dull ocean The tech is found by pulsing, you get a message, drop out, and you'll find a void egg floating in space. Shoot it for modules.
hmm ill check it out, i wanna have the imo coolest one :')
Gotcha
You cant find tech in planetary destinations?
Well that was quick
@heavy dagger Not tech for living ships, that we know of.
Think there will be a market for liquid sun?
I assume you can hatch another egg
Is there anyway to figure out what my Egg wants for my Portal for the last part, I dont know what these are
I dont know what these are in word form
Living water in deep space? Whassat?
You'll see, its awesome
It'll be an anaomly, so just boost into the stars until you get an anaomlay and pull outta mini-warp thing
pulse
Just stay in pulse until you get a ping
AGSGSGAFAGA JELLYFISH
@icy citrus what sort of systems are u finding eggs in? and can u find eggs in normal ships?
π
@small pier Does your egg say something about The Hunter?
Yeah
if your egg says The hunter Etc those are the Glyphs you need to put in I believe
The Hunter, The Reflection, The Hunter
Yeah I dont know what symbols they're talking about
That's a portal address. Check the pins for a Key
God this update is so cool
You're a lifesaver Alloc
Not only is the space station abandoned but so are the trading posts and buildings, I haven't seen a single ship
@small pier sure π
@cold folio Yeah, that system will be totally empty except for pirates
All the systems I have gone to so far @cloud epoch
Spooky
All the colors inhabited, uninhabited
I don't know about finding them in normal ships - a few people have said they aren't
cool thx
How do we open a second egg?
very carefully
π
just buy another and ull get the ship encounter in space and it will skip to the final step
I have one
Ah ok
I filled the energy with all the glyphs but how do I use this portal system now?
@icy flicker Some people are getting bricked saves when getting a second living ship. I'd wait, personally.
yeah i have no idea why i got a free second quest end + free second ship lol
@small pier Once it's charged, it activates and you walk through.
Iβm a just make a back up
If it didn't activate, check to see if a glyph didn't charge all the way
nero do u have portal glyphs?
Cause I donβt know where to get half of the stuff needed to fix this one
do artemis quest, get all glyphs, profit?
Need to get Quicksilver to get the egg, then the shit is time locked
Do the Atlas path missions
you aint done artemis yet?
Thats hours of work
The artemis path gives the glyphs, not Atlas.
actually aint he gonna then have to go back to ecluid if he does artemis and travels to the new galaxy or am i thinking of the wrong thing
it's that or harass 16 traveller npcs for graves
The living egg update was aimed at players who were further along. New players need to work through some of the game first.
@foggy jacinth living. Larva core, viscous fluids, bloody organ
Yeah. Larval Core are from abandoned buildings. Viscous fluids can be gotten by refining goop. Bloody organs are a bait, made in the nutrient processor from meat (like feline livers) and mordite.
@proud peak No. I was just asking if others did something I do.
I guess had hadal core is too? In abandoned buildings?
Hmmmmm
So I achieved a living ship last night and saved and went to freighter and it was there
saved and closed out
I'm back in and there is another livijng ship in the same Fallen Soul spot
different and better spec'ed
and the orig one is still in my freighter
@icy flicker Hadal cores come from water. Intriguing specimens or something like that.
@spice gorge They do seem to be appearing in the wild.
Maybe once you go thru the storyline, it's just like another ship
Yea but this appeared where the other one had appeared
as if I had not yet claimed one
I am g oing t try and swap
And unlike the orig living ship, NOTHING is broken in this one
Anyone have the portal cords?
I dont wanna fail my a bunch trying to figure it out lol
Well there is one bug. I reloaded the save. Now only the primary components are broken. All the other broken stuff is gone
So here are the two ships, original one is closest to camera. Which do you like better?
Do pulse anomaly black holes send you to the same place?
Thx
@cursive kernel Planet back to orig color???
you got the coords to that spot... would be interesting to see if I can see both ships
@spice gorge
@spice gorge should be soon
Yea it didnβt do it for me @spice gorge
Man, these unstable coordinates for the living ship stuff...so frustrating
@spice gorge To answer your earlier question, I like the original better. But my opinion isnβt important. Which do you like better?
Who wants to do some science
I've attempted the quest 4 times with 2 new games and every time I cant get the new blueprints from the monolith on the oddly colored world any ideas?
So, upgrades for the living ships --- are these achieved via quests or granted in space encounters .. or purchased in stations?
@spice gorge encounters
I found a warp gate too.
Also I have a living ship on my other chairs and when I find the encounters I cant get the upgrades from the eggs. I've found 2 of them and nothing happens when I kill them
I want to find out if they act like regular black holes, as in do they take everyone to the same place?
@uncut harness no, you can find black hole black holes
Not just warp gates
Am I glitched or something I have complete contacts for the gek I got one done but when I do any other mission from the mission agent it doesn't count for the second one
So if i want a dif iterstion of the ship i gotta collect souls agaon?
@cursive kernel I know what you said. I was adding to it.
@brittle current save manually right before getting in your ship after collecting souls
Sweet thx
Flat out can't find this last thing
@half linden sounds to me like you have some pretty big bugs with the new quests. There is a patch coming out soon, details here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/275850/discussions/0/1754652753779206686/
I'm at the Target coordinates but I'm not getting any location updates
Check your symbols. Make sure your pluses and minuses are accurate.
They are as far as I'm aware
Unless the game typod on the quest and mistook a plus for a minus
Because both coordinates are minuses
Rip, I don't think Living Ships got to PS4 yet
So the egg tells me to go to punk and blue plant and that unconventional travel may be required but when I get on the planet nothing happens
And Iβve seen at least three others.
Are there any steps I should take before stepping inside the portal to avoid any bugs?
Just back up your save.
Alrighty
@cold folio The coordinates change every few seconds. Kinda take an average, or look around. It'll appear as an unknown building on your visor, but you're looking for an Ancient Plaque, the ones that look like monoliths, but are a bit smaller and don't have the 3 knowledge stones. It might take some running around, or exploring a bit in an exocraft.
Found the thing
I made a big discovery
Dont tell me my games bugged again
Posted in screenshots
Justtried my save on the experimental build I still dont learn any new blueprints
Anyone has any tips on locating the graves? Don't seem to find them on my visor even after looking around the area for several minutes.
Oh? I have no idea where to go for the living ships stuff
So I have no way to continue my quest and I'm on pc
@subtle thorn Nexus. It costs 3200 QS.
@gilded sandal Just keep looking. They'll be on your visor eventually. May want to put down an exocraft to help you search the area
aight then, thanks
Ah. Is it that Void Egg thing?
Yeh
Ah! That makes sense. Time to grind out some QS missions
Also at what point is the void egg supposed to upgrade?
@foggy jacinth Found it, there was loads off commstations around it but for some reason my icons disappeared, thanks anyways. π
I see a lot of people on bioships, how they got them, it's been 2 days, every quest makes me wait a day, what's wrong?
@subtle thorn Missions are capped,to one a day unless you que them up from missing several days of them.
@fresh obsidian Folks are resetting their clocks.
For QS.
What @foggy jacinth said.
@foggy jacinth what, like this?
How long is 16/16 I hope it's short
@sullen sundial 16
@fresh obsidian YOu need to go offline after you buy the egg, and then you need to reset your clock, say, back a week, and then stay offline. When you hit a timegate, move your clock forward.
There are four of them.
That's a lot more complicated than just moving your clock ahead a day
@foggy jacinth I understand, thank you
clarify what you mean by 'when you hit a time gate'?
looks cool
Last time I checked, my Nexus had three QS icons up, so I think I'm good
Yah but is it perfect lol
idk man
This is so hard lol
@pliant root At certain points in the quest, you need to wait 24, 27 hours for something to happen. That's a time gate.
After getting the alien ship from skipping. Will you lose it if you set your time back?
@brittle current as far as I can tell all living ships have the same inventory
@silent talon No. Save before you go back online. I shut down my game completely and restarted with my clock reset to correct.
I could care less if it had 1 slot
@brittle current find another then
Right. I've had mine offline for the first two parts of this. When all is said and done and I have all I need for the LS, do I just reset my time back to normal?
@brittle current Itβs not my first choice, but then again, Iβve already got mine. Does it convince you that it is worthy of your fleet?
If the purple was darker
@pliant root Save before you go back online. I shut down my game completely and restarted with my clock reset to correct.
So as long as I save and restart the game after I get the ship I'll be fine?
@silent talon I was. π€·ββοΈ
Ok and putting time back doesn't roll me back? If so I'm doing it when I get home
Back to normal I mean
@silent talon no because it's client side when offline
Eww this ones pink
Ok I'll try it when I get home
@sullen sundial not sure is anyone answered your question... but if doing those missions to gain rep with a race then make sure you do missions for the race and not the guild that race represents... you want missions with the icons on the left in this image: https://discordapp.com/channels/146101654981312513/471868642204712971/633942793001107458
well 2nd wait phase started.... well 1st one really doing it all again in Creative π
Imagine getting one in permadeath... and then dying 5 mins later
oh! indeed... I died recently on the xbox being chased by cave crabs... tried shooting them with the terrain manipulator.... jumped and died!
The same purple one again π’ if i have to choose between this and pink...
go on you know you want the pink one π
I wish their was an option to change the difficulty of the environment and enemies, without having to deal with perma death
Well i may be stuck with purple. Nms eves drops i swear
@silent talon Survival
Dont you lose inventory on that?
just the same as Normal except the inventory size is as it was before the normal got boosted to 10k
so 250/500
Don't tell me I need to go to the center of the universe by jumps
nope you do not need to go anywhere near the core... ever to complete the story
@sullen sundial No. but you do need to warp 16 times. Each time, a few secons after you enter, you'll get a purple 'data injection.' That's the Glyph. Don't warp again until you get that.
I just want everything to be the same but with all enemies stronger and environment harsher
Question. If I reject the living ship do I get my egg back?
idk why you would
I closed game, reopened and it was a hauler for a split second, scared me to death
so.... once you reach the top milestone at 650 words learned for a race, are there still more words to learn after that?
@lusty hare At some point you stop learning them.
@silent talon What is?
living ships
Shit well how can I get 8k nanites quick? Lol
The purge doesn't erase all my progress right
So just to confirm, reloading a save before you get the living ship lets you roll for a new one, pretty much?
@proud peak No. You get many more tech slots on living ships
I was making a joke about what happened to @brittle current
@foggy jacinth Not my point....
@sullen sundial No. But make sure you have a base built before you finish it.
He said "lol its a re textured hauler" while referring to the living ships. I was answering you
I have multiple bases
Like if I get my ship and it's blue or something, I hate it, I can load up my recent save and it'd come out differently?
@silent talon it must be!
So it doesn't matter what I choose huh
Damn im stuck woth purple 4 times in a row... purple
ship is most likely determined upon entry to the system that contains it
so not sure if just save reloading will work
just a question, do you have to close your game first before coping a back up or can you do it while you're in-game?
π π
@brittle current I'd happily swap if I get one you'd rather have
Can we?
once you do the first ship, you can get a second one its just abit risky with the current bugs
@vocal lodge main menu at least... don't want to corrupt the data by having something write to it while something else is reading it....
Should I complete the Atlas path or just explore
Makes sense
We'd have to go to a station, I'd swap my ship for another, claim it, then my old ship would be abandoned, you hop in it to claim it, I claim your old one, and off we go.
Yah ill wait for a patch. Dont want my save bricked
You sure that works?
@tall hornet
Im on ps4
According to Some Dude on Redditβ’, yes.
Just copy the nms folder
I could do it on my pc save though
Oh goddammit lol sorry. I'm on PC
Oh idk if this works on PS4
What should I go with
i've still yet to see any of those living ship upgrades in asteroid fields
is there a certain system with a higher chance of spawning them?
Ok the cockpits bad ass
Ill post a screen shot if requested but dont wanna annoy you all
Should I go with the Atlas path just explore
@brittle currentDO IT
@twilit void Pulse engine around > wait for "ANOMALY SIGNAL/DETECTED" then stop pulse
and it will spawn infront of you, they are random which anomaly it will be
hm
I'v had Desolate freighters, Pirate Relay stations, Giant living crystal thing and something else i forget
try another system π€·ββοΈ
Also I'd suggest just pulsing from one planet to another thats when I encountered mine
Does it even matter what option I choose?
Dear egg, stop trying to get me killed. Yours truly, me.
@sullen sundial Choose to do the Atlas, or are you at the end of The Purge?
I just started the Purge quest
End of purge quest be like good bye reality
As long as it doesn't wipe my game and everything I made
Teh purge doesn't wipe anything. However, it does break all of your technology.
That's going to take forever to fix even though I have a lot of stuff
Use a junk ship, and have a junk MT active. That helps.
So continue Atlas path
I would do the Atlas Path first then finish the purge
I got the ship but cant fly it cuz it broken like hell
Shouldn't I start getting the infamous glyphs now
you get those during the Purge, you used to get them during 16/16 but it got changed...
So just jump from Galaxy to Galaxy
@winged badge you got it! Excellent!
@sullen sundial no from system to system...
I'll just, make a backup and try hatch the 2nd egg
@foggy jacinth yea it only took like 2 days lol
@sullen sundial finish the Atlas path 1st, I refused, and then completed the Purge and in one save also refused and in another selected the Green Orb .... but its your game so you make the choices you want... π
Wanna double check but is the st_(ton of numbers) folder the one I need to be backing up?
yes
nice
Is there a way not to mess up having 2 ships on ps4?
@brittle current what do you mean? Like living ships?
If you're talking about the bugs related to getting a second one, there's no workaround on console rn. Just need to wait for the current experimental patch to go live on all platforms.
I'm guessing there is 16 seeds huh
So after the headache of a broken living ship, I've decided to reload from my manual save. T_T Have to get all my glyphs again, but whatever.
@sullen sundial if you mean Glyphs then yes there are 16... this can be seen by looking in the guide/catalogue on the left there's an option to show the Glyphs you currently have, if any....
I mean the seeds like the blueprints I've been getting from all the Atlas stations
nope 10
The Atlas Seeds
Captured Nanode: Pathfinder (5 milestones completed)
Englobed Shade: Juno (10 milestones completed)
Noospheric Orb: Rosetta (15 milestones completed)
Dark Matter: Cassini (20 milestones completed)
Dawn's End: Kepler (25 milestones completed)
Photic Jade: Dawn (30 milestones completed)
State Phasure: Curiosity (35 milestones completed)
Novae Reclaiment: Hubble (40 milestones completed)
Modified Quanta: Viking (45 milestones completed)
Heart of the Sun: Magellan (50 milestones completed)
Th last step wants me to go pretty far, it says unconventional means of travel may be required, what's it mean?
Portal
By the time I even bothered to do the atlas seeds I already maxed almost every milestone
Well I'll get all because I have 84 milestones
Don't know why Atlas couldn't have just given me all the seeds at once
XD
@timid mist thx zoid
Since the whole cake is a lie
@cold folio That's a portal address. A key is in the pins of this channel
After I find the abandoned building....now what?
boil the egg for breakfast
I need to rant here
@tropic steeple is your mission log, the egg, or the screen in teh lower right telling you anything?
Finally get the runes for my Portal "Finally the home stretch for my Living Ship" >Go through portal Sean - AHAHAHAHA YOU NEED TO FIND MOVING COORDS FOR MORE COORDS FOR GRAVESITES THAT MOVE
This ship should be fucking called the Coordinates Ship: Try not to Rage Quit
@foggy jacinth no
at last im on the last step when should i save?
@tropic steeple I'd try scanning, and then if that doesn't turn up anything, launch into space and pulse a bit, and check the galactic mapl.
do all living ships come with 22 general slots and 21 tech slots?
perhaps
@foggy jacinth thank you. Worked.
quick question
I got to the mission part where you go through the portla
portal*
I input the right glyphs but it says planet resonance not right
double check it
@alpine juniper Are you in Euclid?
keep checking
yeah
Have you saved and restarted?
I've done it on two diff computers
also after through the portal, i can't go to galaxy map
And you're not on PS4?
not being able to see the map after going through a portal is normal. You arne't on the far side of a portal when trying to dial the new address, are you?
I don't know what else might be the problem.
rippp
Games really gonna make me hunt down all these glyphs huh
Well I don't know how I feel about this ship, it's not very cool looking, nice coloring though
couple questions, I'm for enough along in the Artemis questline that I have his soul inside the simulation in the anomaly, will the void egg missions trigger ?
And how do you start the missions to find the glyphs, do you look for the travellers in stations?
I'm pretty satisfied with mine
i like both of mine lol
yes it will trigger risen, and to get glyphs u can either finish the artemis questline (you're like 2/3rds done) or ask travellers where they came from to find graves
@uncut harness The egg quest will trigger, but you can't finish it until you get your glyphs. You can get your glyphs from travelers, but the better way is probably to finish the Artemis missions.
If I'm in Hilbert and the egg is saying 'Euclid Euclid Euclid' at the end of the last part, do I need to go back to Euclid?
Yes
Ugh...ok
The portal step has to be done in Euclid
Alright cool thanks
Is there a way to reset the Artemis quest since I'm several million light-years from the starting point
Are there more biological technologies than the ones that the living ship comes with
Like a positron equivalent
I cannot find the living ship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, I've tried the second part of the starbirth mission and the plaque isn't showing up. I am LESS THEN 1 U away from the target and it just keeps moving! Has anyone else had this problem? Can anyone help?
I'm guessing the final interface is the one to purge everything
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Can I skip this part?
Is there anyway to just craft what I need?
HEEELP PLEAAAASE!
What are you at
What part are you at?
Is it the cracking void egg
Yeah
You need the Galaxy portal
@cold folio If there's a red swirly icon next to Artemis, you can reset it.
Must travel by unconventional methods...wat
Oh, I should just go to the anomaly?
@dapper axle The text that starts with The HUnter is a portal address. Check the pins in this channel
No the other portal
ah, I misunderstood where you were, @dapper axle.
Its the portal you need the gylphs
The coordinates change every few seconds. Kinda take an average, or look around. It'll appear as an unknown building on your visor, but you're looking for an Ancient Plaque, the ones that look like monoliths, but are a bit smaller and don't have the 3 knowledge stones. It might take some running around, or exploring a bit in an exocraft.
I am within 1 U, I know I should have seen one by now, and I haven't.
Keep looking. The coordinates aren't exact.
Honestly I land somewhere close by the given coords and then go searching on foot
ILemme show you.
So far, the farthest I've been was 500u away when landing
Also there were 2 ancient plaques 500u away from each other
So I landed at the one I saw first
This is the coordinates the egg tells me to go and mine.
Way to close for me not to see anything.
I've found the first one and being within a certain radius was fine.
This one, I don't see any unknown buildings.
Can't you just place down a signal booster and look for nearby structures lul
I'll try that again.
Do I make a new Galaxy
HA THAT'S WHAT YOU GET YOU STUPID LITTLE GECK
TRYNA CALL ME UP ON TRADE WHILE I'M SEARCHING FOR UPGRADES
@ivory crown HAHAHA THAT'S WHAT I DO TOO
THEN I TALK TO THEM AFTER THEY DIE
Just an 1 and a half of searching
@dapper axle you're welcome
A few people have had their buildings that hard to find.
Very hard, I found it! Thanks!
Just Literally had to be two steps away to see it. Maybe it should automatically pop up if you are within 1000 u?
Might be helpful
the upgrades for Living Ships get overloaded past 3 too, right?
When do I use that
Isn't it cool to think some of us here were the very first to see a living ship? It means we technically discovered space whales, no announcement, no guidance
Is there any way to get the Fragmented Qualia without having to kill animals? I really hate killing things in this game!
@wheat fulcrum no unless someone gives it to you
you can... think of it as... "recombination" instead of killing
Honestly just get over it, they aren't real
you are using it to fuse a new life, so you can look at it that way
Bummer =(
Thanks for the answer though
Not the idea of it that bothers me so much Nobody - it's the animations and the sounds! And most of them are just so oddly adorable in their weirdness!
huh for that I was placed on a glitched planet so the "animals" there weren't very... animal for me
@wheat fulcrum: I don't like killing things in this game
Me, killing npc ships at trading posts and the ones in space that try to interact with me then answer their call: π
Empathy isn't a bad thing, even for fictional creatures.
if you really want, you can save edit your way out I guess
Like the space trade ships are so annoying cause I think I'll get something cool but nah it's just another one to add to the list
Is there anyway to land or interact with the wrecked freighters in space?
I'll go to a water planet and find the ones I don't like the look of =P
@wheat fulcrum personally I'd go to a blob planet, but that's just me
@small pier Not that anyone has found. Maybe in a new update?
I'm at 'Cracking Void Egg'..... The Hunter, The Reflection, The Hunter, The Spiral etc etc... are these the glyphs I need to enter in the portal?
Whats weird is that you can damage the doors and have them blow up but you can't get whats inside
I fucking HATE BLOBS so much
@wanton dragon yes.
oh god I have 330 eggs on my freighter and I can't stop being called for another living ship
=D Blobs are some of my favourites! =D And the ones that look like giant pineapples
I'm gonna move these to base storage
@wanton dragon Yes, and there's a key here in this channel, in the pins
@ivory crown why in the stars do you have so many eggs lmao
you can never have enough
@ivory crown if you were on xbox I'd take some
can't you do the same freighter dupe glitch on all platforms?
I already have 1 and accidentally duplicated one somehow
@ivory crown what freighter dupe glitch
it's a glitch where freighter-placed inventories (refiners, nutrient processors) freaking out when you trade items
Trade items to where? To another person?
@tall hornet @foggy jacinth Thanks π
All the dupe glitches I know about currently, require multiplayer and a 2nd person.
It's why so much junk is given out at the Anomaly, those people are duping.
Ah I should stick around the anomaly then and get a friend to help
well you don't really need a friend, just a random person on anomaly with an open inventory slot does it
Which is rude, in my opinion. Thanks for those 10 ferrite dusts. smh
I am confused... I doubt people are duping 10 ferrite dusts....
No, they aren't. The trigger for duping is to share something and then reload your save. So they dump things like ferrite dust.
Once they reload, everything in their inventory gets duped.
π€·ββοΈ
Ok once I have Fragile Neural Stem how long till next step?
that seems odd... I mean, I would expect that whatever you gave out would be back in your inventory again, but I am not sure how it would dupe everything
π code
@lusty hare I don't know, but that's how it works. Share something, everything gets duped. So people share worthless things.
@tropic steeple I think that one is something like 18 hours?
Ok just wondering is this a wait a few min thing it come back tomorrow thing. Sounds like the later
weird
I've never used that duping method, myself.
Does anyone know which glyph is "the hunter"?
Hmm that's what I thought...I wonder which one I'm messing up then
check pins
The portal for the living ship quest:
@foggy jacinth Just FYI timer on mission just popped up. Once u get Fragile Neural stem itβs 24hrs.
finally got the ship, but how do you upgrade it?
@foggy jacinth thanks.
find eggs in space and shoot em
@karmic narwhal What Zinfinion said. Pulse, and when you get an alert, drop out and shoot eggs.
eggs?
yeah. Sounds strange, but it's true. Void eggs floating in space that when destroyed, drop upgrades.
the trick is finding them, so far i have encountered only traders and bargainers and one derelict lol
huh okay
The time gates for this thing are ridiculous...I hate changing my clock but yeesh...a week or more
I've found four upgrades, 2 A, 1 B and 1 C
Man, who knew that finding a monolith was so difficult
I remember when they were literally everywhere
Any way to reset your quest for egg? It doesn't show me where on the galactic map to go
So wtf is a child of Helios?
Old man Helios on the Anomaly got around back in his day
@heavy dagger Some have been able to reset it, by getting far away, like through a black hole. Some haven't been able to reset it.
Can anyone tell me what the child of Helios(Giant jellyfish thing) is?
So Iβm on my second void egg and the coordinates are jumping around where I am standing. What am I looking for?
Hey guys, anyone doing the Starbirth quest having an issue where itβs saying look for a marked system on the GalMap but nothing is showing up? And you canβt choose βcurrent missionβ as the destination?
@strange shuttle a space jellyfish
@strange shuttle itβs a thingy that may or may not help u on star birth with resources
How do I get the living water I keep warping to other stations but nothing. Am I missing something?
So donβt attack it
Yep
Ok
@devout cloud The coordinates change every few seconds. Kinda take an average, or look around. It'll appear as an unknown building on your visor, but you're looking for an Ancient Plaque, the ones that look like monoliths, but are a bit smaller and don't have the 3 knowledge stones. It might take some running around, or exploring a bit in an exocraft.
Ok thanks
@shrewd fog There's a bug where the galaxy map doesn't show the next progression. it'll get fixed in teh next patch. SEe https://steamcommunity.com/app/275850/discussions/0/1754652753779206686/
How do I get the living water I keep warping to other stations but nothing. Am I missing something?
You know if they were going to give us so many coordinates to go to they could have updated the HUD compass with east and west marks
@silent talon Pulse, it's an encounter in space.
Iβve forgotten that the sentinels built the portals
@silent talon it's another encounter in space
Ok thanks
So what kind of interesting pulse encounter have people confirmed so far? Know about the story spawns, direlect freighter and some different resource deposits?
Also something else - the sound of the final interface seems like a run down building. Might suggest the run down of the atlas or maybe even the building itβs in on the other side
So I'm having a hard time trying to come across Anomalies Pulsing, Ive pulsed since energy ran out and got nothing
Pirate listening posts
How many eggs can you hatch?
Blow them up, get standing, spawn a pirate fight
3 hours till my thing is done. T.T so close.
Six if you get rid of all your other ships
@foggy jacinth ah thanks a ton. I was going mental trying to figure it out. Definitely going to just wait for the patch then since I canβt reset the location and trying to pinpoint what system by me is going to be impossible.
If I activate another egg will it give me another quest?
creeeeepy living ship thing in quick 15 sec video in screenshots
so...what's the point of finding a derelict freighter in space?
Man, I am bummed out. After getting my Living Ship I haven't come across a single Anomaly outside that one Abandoned Freighter
at least you got your ship.... grumble grumble
^
I don't like to consider mine counts because I cheated getting it, ir efused to wait days to get Quicksilver or wait for the 24hr timegates
still counts
I cant even get the mission to start
think I will have to wait until the next update then hopefully it will work
Same. Just stuck on "go to the galaxy map"
Where we get the upgrades for em now?
I dont even have that... mission doesnt come up at all
Whoever decided that making the Living Ships require 24+ hour timers for each part to mature is a bloody dick.
What do I do with the atlas console should I make a new Galaxy?
id say go for it, you can go back to the old one need be
Or should I do the purge first
Anyone know how to get living ship upgrades? Can we just buy em?
From what I've heard here, it's random encounters during Pulse Jumps.
the one's that work on normal ships won't work on the living ships, so you have to find them, at least for now.
Had a few encounters
Should I make a new Galaxy first or purge first
Like, every other aspect of the Living Ships I've seen so far, RNG included, has been fine to me except for the stupid-ass timers.
I want to fly around in a Living Ship, not wait a freaking week to build one.
my clan has found a way to trade alien ships without mods or cheats
yaaay finally got me an egg
Skip time
Skip time?
jealousy ensues, need an egg π
Back up your save and then edit it
I've done a little save tweaking already, but I don't know the variable I'd need to modify to tweak the timers...
Or the completion process.
But that one might mess something up.
Look for the quest named bio_ship
There's like, 12 of them. Lol.
Looks through it.
Okay, I got 2 missions, but no variable that seems like a timer, unless I'm just a fool.
Continues sifting through it.
Oh, there's one little spot here I see~!
A little "Data" block where time stumps me!
Ah so upgrades are in void eggs you encounter during pulse. For the people who dont know I guess lol
Check currentmissionid it should be named bio_ship2 it's the data value you have to change just to 1
Be sure to be in the menu where you select single or multiplayer before you select your save
Let's just call them alien
Interesting, I warped to a space station and it seems abandoned and overrun, is that new?
whale ship
Still not sure if I should make a new Galaxy first or purge
No? First Iβve seen of one
@sullen sundial you're doing the atlas path, no?
Yeah
@dense thistle they've existed for a while
@sullen sundial that just points you to a black hole
Guess theyβre just rare
rip my 2nd living ship host is invisble
HUGE difference between galaxy and solar system
cant get it if its invisble and cant cancel the quest
Rip + F
Well I guess purge it is since I don't have another heart of sun
Canceled it and apparently that consumes it
well this isn't good
so while i wait for my parts to birth, should i go find eggs to shoot?
wow, the nexus is full of living ships...
Oh fuck Everytime i climb into a ship I die now
Rip
The Child of Helios gave me the Living Water I needed. Nice.
call them squishies instead of alien or bioships π
What if your ship needs to go
Also what do you feed it
I don't think I can make the Galaxy anymore I think it broke
How do people have living ships on ps4 already if they just got released yesterday? Each part takes 24+ hrs to build..
changing the clock on the console maybe?
screen peaks
Yeah it's broken
I think you only ever get one shot at birthing a new star. and it doesn't really change anything about the game.
Second Living Ship CTD Bug
As some of you may know, there is currently a bug where claiming a second living ship causes you to die upon entering any alien ship, if you summon your freighter, then your save becomes effectively "bricked". There is a way around this bug but it is PC ONLY
Download No Man's Sky Save Editor from https://github.com/goatfungus/NMSSaveEditor
Load up your save.hg (make sure it's your current save, not a backup)
Navigate over to your ships menu, find the second living ship, and click "delete ship"
Go back to your initial living ship and right-click "ALIEN_LAUNCHTRUSTER" technology, and select "Repair slot."
Save, and launch your game. This should fix the CTD, and allow you to fly your living ship again.
Until a proper fix is released for this patch, please refrain from claiming a second living ship!
@mild schooner
oh fun
Can someone put up the gylphs meanings for me
Pins
I'm on Android
K so before I go back through the portal to my home universe - am I supposed to do anything?
Save before going through, then if I don't dig my ship I just reload and do it again?
Im kind of confused .... it's telling me to look on the map for a marked solar system... how is it marked?
Doing the Starbirth quest o,O Or did going offline muck it up ?
A little egg icon should appear. Make sure Starbirth is your active mission. It kept jumping to Atlas Path for me.
yeah that's what it is
is doing even
Playing offline so I can time skip
ugh I cant paste screenshots in here apparently
But if you want to see what Im doing Im streaming atm... just not sure what I'm doing incorrectly
Finally I can teleport where my egg needs to go
What do I dneed to do so I can go where my egg wants me to go?
I cant even see the waypoint
They really shouldn't have made this on a shared planet
Oh is it a specific planet I have find somewhere in the system?
err galaxy
the egg thingy
so it wont be in proximity to me
Could my egg thing be broken? Or the mission otherwise?
@fossil hearth Once you reach the system, the egg will direct you to a specific planet
I hopped out for just a second and it spit me back out at the starting planet.
you look at the egg in your inventory and it will say some clue
in the description
That is, again, if you are in the right system
Powerful anomalies, and strange colors xD
Like came to this chat, game crashed, I went back and now it's like ... at the planet I was at beforehand...
Making me do the whole portal + souls whatever again.
So how do I find a planet with anomalies.... err a system with?
Is it labeled on the map thingy?
@cursive kernel Issue with second ship?! I didn't know that...guess I'll hold off on that for now!
Are you sure you aren't in the right system already? None of the planets sound like weird color?
Look for a planet that is an anomalous planet, the bubble or rattled or some such, not a regular planet. 'powerful anomalies, strange colors' is just one of those.
Ok how does the stupid soul chamber work
You've already built it?
I'm at the coordinates that keep changing on the mission log but don't see anything
You know what fallen traveler graves look like?
Like your own.
No And it doesn't help that there's a stupid storm every few minutes
You haven't done any missions for them?
Youβre looking for a micro Atlas symbol.
A little for me it impossible
The first one was a little tough
Better to look for them on foot with your Visor than in your ship.
Ugh it would be nice if the storm would just stop
I am on foot I can't see anything
The storms on that planet are insane
I waited out the storms
Just go to the roaming coords and make sure you're inside where they are passing through. Then just look around.
I braved them.
On average, I was able to land within 400u of the target site, even when estimating the exact location.
im trying to merge with someones living ship
Still don't see anything
I finally got it!! Had to redo some of my main story, but I'm glad I had a manual save. I like this ship much better than the last one. Thanks all for the help!!
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/ERRexynU4AEm2rp?format=jpg
Though I did do two more graves than I should have because I made the mistake of keeping the soul thing in my ship instead of my exosuit, and so I ended up doing two graves extra with no result.
Damn, those are some long landers.
@sullen sundial I could not find any graves when I had multiplayer turned on. Once I turned it off and reloaded the game, I finally got graves.
Turned off multiplayer and now I'm reloading the game
Hope it helps you like it did me
They can still be tough to spot at times though. Scanner helps
Unless it gave me a borked location
I have to do the whole building again?
Probably.
Is it because mine is on a mountain which is why I can't see it
Additional Living Ships do not require to go through the whole growing stages again. It's way easy a next time/ Just have another egg and Pulse in space until you get a message with new location marked
ohh. then you find it and done?
Yup
awesome
Oh, thatβs nice. Iβm still keeping my first one though. Oddly enough, itβs a perfect match for my fleet.
@shrewd mauve but claiming it requires 10k nanites
oh. uhhhhhhh
definitely not using save editor for these
thanks for the help, hopefully I can get a good looking one today
All the best sir
I save/reloaded like 37 times for mine
But you donβt need 10k nanites for the first ship, right?
right
OMG could it have killed them to put a beacon on the grave
No
Thank god...
anyone got a link to the address for the 5th part of the quest
There's a Khraze gaming recent video on it although my experience was a little different than his. I initially used a manual save before going back through the portal....after getting the souls. That worked but took a long time to go through each attempt.
Pins likely help
Maybe if I level this whole mountain then I'll find the stupid grave
In the Khraze video he puts the manual save beacon before entering your ship, after going through the portal
He says he had to go to different systems to get offered different ships...I didn't. In the same system I got different ships every tiem
I was on PS4 offline

I tested entering my ship...going through the dialogue, giving away the egg...then I exited my ship creating an auto-save, before taking off.
Reloading that auto-save I still got different ships each time
(I just checked out the ships without landing/getting out, so I wouldn't overwrite my auto-save. But manual save would work too.)
I just didn't want to alter my manual save from before the portal in case anything got screwed
What do the fallen travelers souls look like?
@sullen sundial Are you scanning? In the visor the grave icon should pop up if you are close
And tips on finding them?
Wait to hatch subsequent ships until they patch out the save brick
Are you sure the coordinates are correct?
It's giving me nothing
Ya you should see that icon in the visor when you scan
The first one really doesn't show up for some reason
Are you sure you're at the correct "+" and "-" coords? hahah
The exact
I was standing 20u away from it and I didn't see it until it highlighted down in that little valley
ANd you tried reloading? Do you have another save slightly before that part?
Tried relaunching the whole game no save before it
Has anyone done the part of the quest for the egg where you have to find specific coordinates?
There's a whole bunch of them.
Ya should work obv....very odd. Another thing to try tho annoying would be to go back through portal and then back???
My Fallen Host for my 2nd ship is invisible :/
I mean it's not even showing up anyways, can't abandon it either, kinda screwed.
Just leave it til they patch, then go check again.
Probably won't take but a couple of days.
Why would they release it to be broken
Would any grave count
Does it really have to be this specific one
Good question
Because I'm already starting to level this whole stupid mountain
LOL, you could attempt any random grave. Again, another option would be to go through portal and back again but I'm not sure if that will help.
You could drop a save beacon there to easily find the spot again
I really disliked having to go to multiplayer, so many dots from peoples communication things.
I was offline when I did the whole mission
They're still there for me too even though I turned off multiplayer
Multiplayer is not required for this and may actually function better alone
Wait why can't I build bases
Sorry to hear it didn't quite help you though @sullen sundial
You canβt build bases on the other side of portals.
Pc
King, if you look down into the mountain you still cannot see the grave? I would think if someone did cover it up with terrain the icon would still show
I"m betting someone covered it.
Dunno go back through portal. Save game. Shut the game down. Disconnect from the internet. Load it up and see if it works??
That screenshot, yo u're still a good way away
It keeps changing between that area
anyone with.. spare eggs?
Ya you gotta be more exact
Try to get into the center of the top most change and the bottom most
Odd mine really wasn't fluctuating much when I got close...maybe being offline helped
The first fluctuation was pretty annoying
Ya note those ZEROs in your current location π
4.018 is not equal to 4.18 hehe
173.013 is not equal to 173.13
quick maths
If you ditch your first living ship, can you get a 2nd one then? π€
It's fluctuating, it's not going to be exact. But getting closer.
Maybe? Still wouldn't chance it til they patch out the save-brick bug
Couldn't you keep a manual save before the whole process just in case?
Either way, using a portal to my base & destroying the previous egg seemed to work
So literally everyone has the CTD bug? Jebus
I figured it's a crash to desktop issue lol
So you reload before you reach the ship or how does it work?
Look above a little where I said "There's a Khraze gaming video...."
Welp m first living ship is done
Well I already got my first ship, it's pure white one
How do you go about upgrading it again?
I'm just staring at my 2nd one π¦
You have to randomly find eggs floating in space that you shoot
when you pulse drive while flying your living ship around
anyone have an egg to spare i could have?
I have yet to find one but haven't had a chance to try much
How do I get hexite?
The egg should direct you to some hexite
Quick question...if I invited a friend to a game and gave him a void egg (in Hilbert), and he later hops in-game back in his home system in Euclid, will the LS quest only be playable in the system in which he received the egg (Hilbert)?
I just had about 1800 hexite in my inventory from community missions a million years ago during NEXT heh
Ah dang, can't post pictures here, this ship looks neat & wanted to share.
@pliant root I believe the mission won't really start until he pulse drive with the egg in his inventory
@fluid stream yeah, he did that in Hilbert
@glad tartan Post it in #nms-photomode-gallery
Now he's trying to continue and can't navigate to the system because...different galaxy
Gotcha
I was watching Xaine's stream initially and he somehow restarted the egg mission after going through a black hole...that was on PC
Is there some option to restart the mission in the log or something?
I think mine is broken
There we go.
It's solid black, sweet!
Mmm, that's the lighting I feel
I've yet to see a dark one though at all.
Is it better to pulse in and out or to just jump into pulse and sit until something crops up
Lol my NMS game glitched and it set me back to the middle of the Egg quest without the quest but with the ship but also with the parts needed for another ship
@fluid stream my buddy says thank you...he was able to restart the mission via the log
Yeah, will make one , just going to back up my save file before testing some things out
I do wish the game wouldn't be so damn loud on launch
You'll have to wait a few min, it's storming
@shrewd hinge Does the screenshot I just sent count as a dark one?
Posted it again. @fluid stream
Still not finding it
sick
I'll make another one when the sun is back
Yeah I'd think so.
Dirty can't you just move the sun?
PC can move the sun by looking at a point in the sky and pushing F
What do you guys mean "dark one"?
Darker colored living ships
Ah gotcha
Move... the sun? π€
Maybe this sentnel can help me find this grave
I'm on PS4 but I guess as sashimi said just point in the sky and push F
HOLY SHIT! The technological advancements!
Exact colours are hard to capture. Daylight works well, but maybe the Ship UI screen itself shows best
Blue sky planets provide the best lighting imho.
To be fair, last time I played was uhh, I think their first big update after launch
Mine has a hammerhead too
siiiick
Colorful.
hey how did you post pic here π
Would killing myself and using my grave as a soul capture work
I mean, this one looks red, but because of the planet and light.
Been sitting in the next level up from base for like a year.
Technically these ships count as spoilers for some people.
just posted mine in screenshots....it's not a dark one haha
Looks quite different in Ship UI
Significantly more pale in space.
Oh we can post pictures here now?
Kill me sentnel!
Jebaited.
No we aren't special like Sashimi
You have to be at least familiar level lol
Okay I posted it yet again in screenshots, you'll see the proper colours there
I'm just going to let myself die
Hmmm, to collect your own soul at given coords?
These new ships actually remind me of Betta Fish.
@sullen sundial Did you try going back through portal?
save, shutdown, reload once offline?
How'd you get so many nanite clusters and quick silver @outer cobalt π
did you just run out of things to spend it on?
There's a real chance of bricking the save @glad tartan
I tried everything my game is broken!
