icy citrus
#

That is when you give the egg for birth

cosmic willow
#

Hey. The only way to start the quest (get the egg) is to buy it in the quicksilver shop?

icy citrus
#

Or have someone give you one

soft scroll
#

i was messaged i think after the chamber, but then i was directed through the portal i came from and my living ship was like on a different section of the planet and thats it

icy citrus
#

Weird!

#

So, can you continually use that egg?

wind sphinx
#

well i could find out, i have the cracked egg still

cosmic willow
#

Okay ... you donโ€™t know what time the weekly starts?

wind sphinx
#

im also playing on creative

soft scroll
#

its labelled as a "cracking egg" now, but if i get other new eggs i can get those to get more ships

icy citrus
#

Like 6 hours @cosmic willow

cursive kernel
#

Wouldn't think so cause shouldn't it use a normal egg after the first ship

soft scroll
#

i just have to wait to be contacted, then it'll direct me to a planet in my system and usually a ship will be there, otherwise the spot where it shows me to go will be empty, but thats due to a bug i think

icy citrus
#

Wondering if having the last step already would bypass the other steps

cosmic willow
#

@icy citrus What time zone? =)

icy citrus
#

Doesn't matter

#

6 hours

#

In your time zone

cursive kernel
#

@icy citrus wouldn't think so but I can try I guess

icy citrus
#

I'm est, they are gmt

cosmic willow
#

Ok. Thanks!

soft scroll
#

an interesting thing i did find out however, is that it doesn't matter where the egg is, if you've got the egg in one of your inventories (exosuit, ship or freighter) you can still trigger the quest to start and it will consume an egg

icy citrus
#

The second one just has you use an egg and nanites though, yes?

soft scroll
#

yeah

icy citrus
#

You haven't had any bugs from claiming more than one?

winged badge
#

It's such a pain to try and get the living ship working cause it was broken I cant even fly it yet

soft scroll
#

egg for starting the quest, then i get directed somewhere, where a ship will usually be, then i can decide to syntehise it for nanites, and then i can decide to swap it or add to collection

cursive kernel
#

@sullen sundial also I found 2 diplos in the system it took me to

#

(The atlas path)

karmic narwhal
#

i just found a random alien ship on my planet and i could just claim it is this normal ?

soft scroll
#

@icy citrus the only bug related claiming more is that sometimes when it directs me somewhere , the ship won't actually be there, so i have to go somewhere pretty far and then reset the quest so it can spawn a new ship in the system i'm in

icy citrus
#

Nice

#

Not normal @karmic narwhal

karmic narwhal
#

so its a bug

soft scroll
#

atleast as far as we know

icy citrus
#

They specifically stated they wouldn't be in the wild

verbal rune
#

go play some lottery today @karmic narwhal lol

icy citrus
#

So I would guess that buying and finding is unintended

karmic narwhal
#

i had no egg no quest it was just there

soft scroll
#

unless you somehow managed to get into a game with someone running the quest and found their ship

icy citrus
#

Oof

#

Lol

verbal rune
#

imagine

karmic narwhal
#

it said that the host might accept me

icy citrus
#

I would be sooo angry

#

Lmao

soft scroll
#

thats the ship itself, it always says that

#

it doesn't mean host as in server host

karmic narwhal
#

huh nothing to repair just a strait up free ship

icy citrus
#

Lucky traveller!

soft scroll
#

whats it look like?

verbal rune
#

screenshot pls

karmic narwhal
#

im on ps4 kinda hard to send an image

verbal rune
#

make a pic with your phone and send us ๐Ÿคฃ

karmic narwhal
#

cant send pictures in this channel

#

This works I guess

wind sphinx
#

so that at a distress beacon or just randomly sitting there?

karmic narwhal
#

It told me there was a host there and i should go get it its the blue egg icon

wind sphinx
#

weird, well count yourself lucky then lol ๐Ÿ™‚

soft scroll
#

just found another new encounter, Jettisoned Storage Silo

uncut harness
#

Welp, my living ship changed colors. I did not consent to this.

#

Fortunately, it seems that the game is compensating me for this by offering me a new ship entirely for free.

mighty rampart
#

I still dont know what colour my ship is

#

I think its whitish pink

#

but it also goes gray

#

and blue

frail vector
#

AHH finding the second organ for the alien ship is proving to be extreeeeemely frustrating! Unstable coordinates... I would seem to be in the averaged center of them but can see absolutely nothing with my Analysis Visor around there... it's really frustrating.

#

(also the egg picked a planet with cloudy storms on the regular so visibility is very much affected too)

mighty rampart
#

they're not really in the average centre, but you should look for yet another one of those ancient plaques

frail vector
#

Are they marked with the knowledge stone icon on the visor?

jovial stag
#

yeah it'll show as an Unknown Building in the visor...

soft scroll
#

also make sure you're on the correct +/- co-ords rather than being on the opposite side, that happened to me once

frail vector
#

I will double check that the next time I'm in... that would seem to be the most likely problem if I can't find absolutely anything around.

jovial stag
#

@mighty rampart nice... mine is still cooking... set the normal save away along with the creative one... just a waiting game now

#

can you choose the colour of the ships?

soft scroll
#

no, its random

jovial stag
#

well, yeah, I should have guessed that... ๐Ÿ˜‰

soft scroll
#

you can skip the timer by changing your clock

jovial stag
#

in no hurry... building my trucking empire ๐Ÿ˜‰

wind sphinx
#

i did that on my creative save

#

going to let it run on my normal save

soft scroll
#

i'm just mentioning it, because if you let it cook normally then you'll wait for several days for all of them combined

jovial stag
#

yeah I know, just want to let it happen the way its been designed to happen and then see if there are any issues... if there are they'll get reported if not its no biggie... as I'm playing ATS in the mean time between checking on things...

midnight pulsar
#

maybe im dumb but the quicksilver vendor isnt selling an egg to start the quest - am I missing something?

soft scroll
#

its the first page

jovial stag
#

you got multiplayer enabled?

midnight pulsar
#

yep

#

in a hub with people right now

wind sphinx
#

if thats the case ask if anybody can give you one

midnight pulsar
wind sphinx
#

sometimes ppl hand them out

midnight pulsar
#

thats my first page

wind sphinx
#

weird

#

did you update the game?

midnight pulsar
#

mhm, even travelled to another system just in case

jovial stag
midnight pulsar
#

weird its not even showing me the research progress

jovial stag
#

check discoveries and see if you have the green icon lower left...

midnight pulsar
#

i do not. it says im offline. I'm definitely in a hub with others and I was online yesterday and didnt see it either

#

ill mess around to try to get back on

#

alright so I launched the game like 10 minutes ago and there wasnt an update

#

i relaunched and it updated ๐Ÿ˜

#

i guess I have great timing?

soft scroll
#

it takes a while for the updates to hit the public branch sometimes

uncut harness
#

This is my new living ship. Dare I say, itโ€™s much more elegant than my first one.

midnight pulsar
#

HAHA

#

I happened to launch the game right before the update hit 14 min ago

#

jesus

uncut harness
#

Just as a word of warning, your living ship if you own one has probably changed colors due to Update 2.31.

mighty rampart
#

oh?

soft scroll
uncut harness
#

There also may be a free ship waiting for you should you decide your current ship no longer meets your standards.

mighty rampart
#

lmao they didnt fix it?

#

so much for me reporting that

#

what's the point of experimental then lol

soft scroll
#

wheres the free ship?

mighty rampart
#

there's a glitch in 2.31 that restarts the mission from the last part

#

you can claim another living ship

#

without the need for nanites

soft scroll
#

they probably need to figure out whats causing it, or they're still trying to figure out how to fix it

mighty rampart
#

but they decided to push it anyway

#

I guess because the critical bug fixes are more important than giving players another ship for free

#

oof coding sounds like absolute pain

strong bluff
#

You canยดt enjoy new content if itยดs unplaylable game-breaking buggy mess.

#

Especially when it bricks save.

mighty rampart
#

yea

strong bluff
#

So bugfixes>free content updates in this case.

#

Unlike other games, which even in early-access stage sell you paid DLCs (looking at Ark survival evolved).

soft scroll
#

i love and hate ark, love it for the ideas it has, hate it for the execution

strong bluff
#

๐Ÿ’ฉ thing there is that instead of bug fixes they went selling DLC (ruins of Earth?) while it was in damn Early Access.

#

So they were selling paid DLCs for not even finished game.

thorny basin
#

Does the new mission start when you get the egg from the shop?

strong bluff
#

When you get egg from the shop, leave anomaly and go pulse driving. Next random encounter will start the quest.

#

Also watch out when trading, as you can accidentally sell the void egg.

#

I mean in trade terminals later.

thorny basin
#

Also, is there anything to get from the Derelict Freighter space encounter? Because I couldn't find anything special other than it just being there

mighty rampart
#

nope

strong bluff
#

Unfortunetaly, nope. ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

soft scroll
#

derelic freighters are null right now

mighty rampart
#

and also, check pinned messages for how to start the egg missions

strong bluff
#

They went lazy there as they could at least add some messages from the freighter, like we see it on crashed ones on planets.

soft scroll
#

probably meant as a stop-gap so that you don't always encounter anything that can give you something

strong bluff
#

But still very lazy when compared with another stuff, which at least gives you some lore, when it does nothing.

#

Like Boundary failures.

mighty rampart
#

idk I like it

strong bluff
#

Yep, but from NMS-level I expect more.

gusty stream
#

They make cool screenshot material

mighty rampart
#

not everything needs a purpose

strong bluff
#

Especially after reading all the lore.

soft scroll
#

you should be able to salvage it for parts/resources

gusty stream
#

And are fun to fight pirates around in

thorny basin
#

Even if it was just a few goodies in containers on the ship, that would be nice

vocal lodge
#

I got the starbirth quest again but I already have my living ship

#

says I need to locate the new lifeform

strong bluff
#

I would more like land on it, it would be challenging as you would have to be carefull not fall into space.

#

And you would have to either collect resources or fight some monsters.

#

Or just shoot it from space like other anomalies.

#

I had one floating anomaly as random encounter, I destroyed it, got some rotten item from it and that was all.

#

But it did something and brought some mystery at same time.

thorny basin
#

Ok. But living Freighters when? That would be so dang awesome.

soft scroll
#

@vocal lodge it just gives you a location for where you can get another one, you can go check it out, and if you've got 10k nanites, you can pick it up to add to your collection or swap with a ship

vocal lodge
#

Ooh

strong bluff
#

Living freighters would be very interesting. And I can imagine how landing there would look like...

#

I also wonder what other space creatures are there in random encounters, as showed in screenshots from update post.

#

(Not only the living ships.)

soft scroll
#

@thorny basin it would be nice to get different sorts of eggs, since this one is labelled Void egg, then you could different kinds which generate differently, like ones that are sort of meant for pure attack, or storage etc, or give special abilities

thorny basin
#

Or even living frigates would be nice. I just love the idea of these massive space creatures.

gusty stream
#

Just add space leviathans

#

We literally have the skull of one implemented already

thorny basin
#

This update is just conjuring up so many feels from my time in Metroid Prime 3

gusty stream
#

They can certainly expand on this update

#

Remember the mech in the game's files?

thorny basin
#

I don't think I ever saw that

vocal lodge
#

hell yeah, got two live ships now

thorny basin
#

I still have two more days of missions before I can buy my egg

#

Dumb quicksilver mission limit.

icy citrus
#

Looks like a wip

thorny basin
#

Can't imagine what it would be used for

soft scroll
#

the rubble of the first spawn encounter is apparently similar to the derelict freighter, its fucking useless

gusty stream
#

It's cool though

languid yoke
#

with egg can you save before it hatches and reload to change its look?

gusty stream
#

I believe so

bitter remnant
#

Has anyone done an extensive breakdown of all the different living ship designs yet?

shrewd hinge
#

Not yet but there's a lot to look through on the nms subreddit

bitter remnant
#

There appears to be quite a variety, although the differences are subtle.

I'm thinking of using the reload trick to get a variety of shots (backing up each time).

shrewd hinge
wind sphinx
#

these living ships are starting to grow on me...

#

just enjoying the movement when at rest. the animation is so cool

vocal lodge
#

Same, the sounds when flying is also nice

soft scroll
#

i just wish we can get other variants later on, like we can get different variants like we have now, so we've got living storage ships, fighters, exotics etc

wind sphinx
#

the one im currently in is rumbling my floor sitting at dock. my bass is on the floor lol

uncut hound
#

Hum can you encoutner living ship upgrade events while not piloting a living ship ?

soft scroll
#

AFAIK no

#

you need to be in a living ship to see those encounters

uncut hound
#

aww :/ cause I like them and all but flying around in an un-upgraded ship is .. painful

soft scroll
#

it's pretty easy to encounter the eggs really

#

atleast you don't need to be in a specific system for em, you just need to fly around

small pier
#

OH GOD these Anomalies, I found a digital being floating in space, looked like it wasn't textured

gusty stream
#

Post image?

grizzled apex
#

God, are some encounters rarer than others? So far all I've encountered are traders and derelict Freighters.

soft scroll
#

yeah, it also depends on the system type you're in

#

different star types will have different encounters

gusty stream
#

What star types have the derelict relics?

grizzled apex
#

I've seen them on almost every star type so far

#

They seem pretty common

thorny basin
#

Do you get the biological equivalent of any starship blueprints when you get the living ship?

small pier
#

Is it normal to keep finding abandoned living ships on planets

#

I just got my second

#

It was just sitting there

soft scroll
#

its a bug apparently

#

you shouldn't be able to get a living ship without an egg

grizzled apex
#

Any idea which systems have which types of encounters?

small pier
#

I c-can keep it right?

soft scroll
#

yeah

small pier
#

Its awesome looking

grizzled apex
#

I'm soft locked in the quest so.....

#

Seeing people collecting them....
Makes me realize I wasted 3200 QS

soft scroll
#

this can show you different encounters

#

although we still haven't figured out which specific systems give what

#

but the backgrounds of some of the pics can sort of tell you what to look for

elder granite
#

.

grizzled apex
#

Thanks a lot. Got tired of seeing derelict freighters

soft scroll
#

yeah you'll see a lot of them

grizzled apex
#

Any images of relic gates? They sound really Interesting

#

And the article makes it seem like black holes now spawn this way too

soft scroll
#

i've got an image of it, but its on my PC

#

its basically like a gate hung between 4 asteroids

grizzled apex
#

Does it have an animation?

soft scroll
#

for the portal yeah

#

its similar to the portals on planets

grizzled apex
#

What color star did it spawn in?

soft scroll
#

no clue

#

maybe a white star?

grizzled apex
#

I was a BIG portal enthusiast before AR. Kinda wish they had more going on. This peaked my interest

soft scroll
#

i didn't record what system type it was when i encountered it, i only really started doing that afterwards

grizzled apex
#

Okay, thanks. I've been roaming in white stars looking for black holes with a junk ship, so didnt check any other stars

soft scroll
#

you can just ask the gek guy in the anomaly for co-ords to black holes

icy citrus
soft scroll
#

AFAIK they're the same

#

still don't know why black holes were added together with the space encounters

icy citrus
#

๐Ÿคท

#

No clue, but I jumped right in the one I found

grizzled apex
#

Strange. So the black hole suns have pretty much no use now? Seeing how black hole generation us different now?

icy citrus
#

There are still the normal ones

soft scroll
#

no clue if the space encounter ones are different to the regular ones

icy citrus
#

So not useless

gusty stream
#

Oh?

#

Pirate monitoring stations are a thing?

grizzled apex
#

@icy citrus
Thanks for the image

soft scroll
#

yeah

icy citrus
#

Np

soft scroll
#

if you shoot them pirates will spawn

icy citrus
#

It took me a very long way also

gusty stream
#

Thats pog

icy citrus
#

From around 12k out from a core, to 700k out

grizzled apex
#

Yea, wiki shows they have a much larger range

#

Damn, that's a huge range

soft scroll
#

Relic gates take you muuuuuucccch further than black holes will

#

and won't damage your ship

grizzled apex
#

Wow. I wonder if they have any lore, like the portals

#

Cause they look like they were made by entities

soft scroll
#

the gate i took, sent me practically near the core all the way on the edge

gusty stream
#

Probably built by ancient civilizations

#

Like say, the Gek First Spawn?

soft scroll
#

lots of strange things in the space encounters seem to be made by ancient civilizations

icy citrus
#

Maybe the ships made them

gusty stream
#

There's literally first spawn rubble

soft scroll
#

which is useless just like the freighters

grizzled apex
#

I hope there is some lore as to why these things are appearing all of a sudden. Things from the past have appeared to, like the first spawn rubble

gusty stream
#

It's cool flavor stuff

soft scroll
#

reality glitches?

#

the explaination for the weird anomaly planets?

gusty stream
#

Like imagine someone absolutely new playing the game and BAM gigantic skull in front of them

icy citrus
#

It was awesome for me, and I'm not new

#

I would of course love any lore

gusty stream
#

I shouldn't have read the gameapedia page godammit

soft scroll
#

why?

gusty stream
#

I didn't know about all of the encounters yet

soft scroll
#

theres still a lot not documented

#

the last 2 at the bottom were ones i added

gusty stream
#

Oh...interesting squinteyes

soft scroll
#

always scares the fuck out of me when i encounter a new one

#

i don't know what to expect

gusty stream
#

Dont wanna be the first guy that shot the Dyson lens

soft scroll
#

does nothing if you're in creative

grizzled apex
#

That..... might've been me
@gusty stream

gusty stream
#

F

grizzled apex
#

And, one again, junk ships aren't the best for fighting a sentinel mothership

soft scroll
#

honestly its best to go around in creative to find out what most of these things do

#

with the ones where you can't really tell, then you can go normal gameplay to see if it does something like add wanted levels etc

grizzled apex
#

I want to find out what the number station means

soft scroll
#

me too

#

the numbers it gave were weird

grizzled apex
#

I have a feeling its filler. But I'm hoping for more, knowing hg

soft scroll
#

i don't know if its similar to the hyperspace nav station and it just gives random stuff or if its actually useful

grizzled apex
#

Any example?

languid yoke
#

im on the 26 hour wait now for my ship, is there more waiting after? or just more quest stuff

grizzled apex
#

Lemme check cyphers

soft scroll
#

is the shell building @languid yoke?

grizzled apex
#

@languid yoke you can change the date on your device to skip the wait

#

Atleast on ps4

languid yoke
#

this is for the first part, the stem

#

i want to be able to finish tomorrow morning with my kids

soft scroll
#

theres quite a few wait times

#

2-3 are around 24 hours, then 1-2 are 26 hours

#

i can't remember exaclty how many parts there are you have to wait for

icy flicker
#

Ok so whoever I was talking to yesterday about the duping living ship bug.

#

It finally happened to me

#

Like you said this one doesnโ€™t have the broken stuff

wind sphinx
#

theres 4 parts

#

its the coords from hell mission lmao

gusty stream
#

Coords make me want to die

#

And then having to wait 24 hours lmao no

strange shuttle
#

Finally got my ship, thank you to all those that helped me out ๐Ÿ‘

wind sphinx
#

congrats

๐Ÿ™‚

lusty hare
#

ooh, an update today? Probably didnt fix my issue, but heres hoping

fervent eagle
#

Hmm, the weekend mission hasnt been posted yet, has it?

regal zinc
#

Did anyone else end up getting a second living ship because of the patch?

ivory crown
#

what patch?

regal zinc
#

There was a small fix this morning on PC.

#

I assume on console as well. I didn't look closely on that side of things.

lusty hare
#

hm, I dont see anything in the notes about my particular issue, but still going to hope

regal zinc
#

What issue is that?

violet narwhal
#

Experimental is PC only... It'll probably be coming to everyone later today, or maybe tomorrow.

regal zinc
#

(Also, Gogo. Awesome profile pic)

lusty hare
#

I've had the living ship show up while pulsing around... it said it resonated with my egg and said something about coordinates, but I never got the Starbirth mission in my log at all

#

And thanks! Gogo is awesome

#

Oh, and my egg is still a void egg - it isnt 'activated'

violet narwhal
#

Pulse around some more, maybe?

lusty hare
#

It's happened twice now, but yeah, I am going to hope this patch fixed it, so I will try pulsing around some more later. I dont have much hope though

cursive kernel
#

You think he hasn't tried?

#

@lusty hare what is the description of your egg

violet narwhal
#

What platform are you on? (go to #roles to get a role for that)

lusty hare
#

still says 'void egg' with the faint tapping

regal zinc
#

And there's nothing else in the text underneath that? Nothing about it wanting a certain type of planet?

lusty hare
#

nope, nothing like that

regal zinc
#

Dang.

#

Are you on PC by any chance?

lusty hare
#

yeah. I am willing to bet I am going to have to wait for some other patches.
Yeah, PC for me

regal zinc
#

I can always give you an egg and you can get rid of that one, and see if that helps fix it?

lusty hare
#

haha, thanks, but I already tried getting another egg too

regal zinc
#

Dammit. -_-

#

Reset the simulation? ๐Ÿ˜‚

lusty hare
#

I am actually partway through the purge, so I may just do that

mystic beacon
#

What can i do with a Gaseous Sentience encounter in space?

cursive kernel
#

@mystic beacon answer your space ship's phone

violet narwhal
#

If you aren't on experimental, try joining that... If you are already, it may get fixed eventually.

mystic beacon
#

@cursive kernel doesn't work, maybe it bugged out because i was attacked...

lusty hare
#

so... are any of the exovehicles actually faster than just running? because they dont seem to be

violet narwhal
#

Not really blob

#

Possibly the bike, with upgrades?... But still kind of inconvenient compared to on foot.

lusty hare
#

that is so wierd.... seems a bit pointless. I was hoping to cruise around in a car to explore fast

regal zinc
#

I found that the mako (whatever the four-wheeled vehicle is, but my mind goes to Mass Effect) feels faster than on foot (well, punch & fly), or at least feels more fluid. But I find I give myself a boost on a hill and then jump, and it goes pretty fast.

#

But that could just be a placebo effect. ๐Ÿ˜‰

lusty hare
#

I would assume the motorcycle one should be pretty fast, but alas, it seems just as slow as the others

foggy jacinth
#

The PIlgrim (the bike) is the fastest, but I don't think by much.

languid yoke
#

how long is the shell building wait?

tall hornet
#

24-27 hours

tacit hornet
#

mine started at 25hrs... still have 20hrs left ๐Ÿ™ƒ

safe ginkgo
#

I've been to the abandoned building and I can't find the living ship in space @foggy jacinth

#

It also won't let me warp

lusty hare
#

you cant warp after going through a portal. you have to go back through

safe ginkgo
#

Wait is that what is needed in the living ship questline?

ivory crown
#

the quest tells you to "return to your reality"

safe ginkgo
#

Oh

#

Thanks @ivory crown

fossil hearth
#

I couldn't do it :< I couldn't kill artemis, so I left him in the simulation D:

safe ginkgo
#

I don't have the quest telling me to do that idk

regal zinc
#

I definitely let him go.

safe ginkgo
#

Yeah same

regal zinc
#

It seemed merciful to me.

fossil hearth
#

Eh... to be able to explore, or not exist. I'd rather choose to explore, even if it was just a simulation.

#

Much like playing in NMS now... its all fabricated but I happily choose to explore :>

icy citrus
#

I wish I would have tossed the echo in there, maybe I could have used it on my ship

fossil hearth
#

Plus you can still continue to talk with him through the sim lol

icy citrus
#

Collect Artemis soul

fossil hearth
#

So he's never alone :>

icy citrus
#

Nomnomnom

safe ginkgo
#

Um yeah am I meant to have a living ship mission in my mission log after going to the abandoned building?

#

Cus I have no idea what I'm doing and the YouTube guide I'm watching isn't much help

#

Wait nvm it just happened I think

outer cobalt
#

Living Ship missions get triggered if you have the Void Egg in inventory and start Pulse in space

safe ginkgo
#

@outer cobalt dw I'm past that point. Just took a while for the quest to actually trigger

outer cobalt
#

okiedokie, have fun

regal zinc
#

I finally finished the story, and wow. I actually think it was a pretty genius concept. Better than I've seen that kind of thing done in the past, that's for sure.

icy citrus
#

I really enjoy the story, the pacing is a bit rough as we can get sidetracked so easily, but very nice imo

silent talon
#

I hope they change the stats of the living ship so its unique, preferably combat orientated

brave path
#

Ok is this the place for ship questions? What do I do with messenger of atlas? After accepting message nothing! There must be something!

@brave path Not that I've found so far.

brave path
#

Okay

#

I can accept that message mr atlas

mighty rampart
#

ok so void eggs show up when pulse jumping, right

#

when you're in a living ship

brave path
#

You can get them randomly jumping if you have a ship not just through as?

#

Qs?

#

You know this really is a perfect update

foggy jacinth
#

@mighty rampart Yes. @brave path The void eggs Sohail is talking about are floating in space, that you shoot to get upgrades for the new ships. They're not seeds for a 2nd living ship.

brave path
#

Oh! I thought the messenger had an upgrade for me. Awesome! Thanks!

#

I want to write these peeps a love letter or something

grave oasis
#

How do we start the process of hatching a new void egg after the quest line is through?

brave path
#

This is seriously one of the best updates they could have cooked up

#

All aspects

lusty hare
#

nope, patch for sure didnt fix my issue... met the living ship again and still no mission

regal zinc
#

Dang. T_T

brave path
#

Community, technology, coolness

#

That sucks :( are you on console or PC?

lusty hare
#

PC

#

I wonder if there is a way to edit my save to start the mission or something

brave path
#

Hmmm

steep violet
#

So just went to play and my game just bugged out and gave me the last step of starbirth, in turn giving me a second living ship. I'm starting to think this update should still be in experimental lol

pliant root
#

I cannot for the life of me find the first grave marker

#

When I did it last night (before I had to start from a manual save), I could see the markers in visor view, but not now

grave oasis
#

They appear when you get fairly close to them

#

Donโ€™t try to scan for them

pliant root
#

Yeah, but I'm right where the coordinates say it should be but I don't see it

grave oasis
#

Look at the coords and try to be right on top of it

pliant root
#

granted, the coordinates are constantly shifting, but i'm within range

regal zinc
#

@steep violet Had the exact same thing. Sadly, the new one wasn't as nice as my other one. I kept both though. XD

grave oasis
#

If itโ€™s something like -21.20 +110.5 check the averages like 110.50 -21.2

#

Etc

steep violet
#

@regal zinc my new on looks cooler, but has lower stats lol

regal zinc
#

Awww. T_T

grave oasis
#

Also get out of your ship and walk around at that point cause itโ€™s gonna be close

regal zinc
#

My new one had lower stats as well. So I mean, can't complain. ๐Ÿ˜‰

pliant root
#

Finally found it....but the icon never showed up

who knows, if you're lucky enough your ship might give you this

mighty rampart
#

goddamnit all I want is one space egg

to test a thing

#

but screw my luck I guess

grave oasis
#

Just wait at a nexus ๐Ÿค”

steep violet
#

Has anyone gone back to the first planet coord with the new ship?

mighty rampart
#

different egg

grave oasis
#

Oh

#

That one

#

Ya only had one spawn so far

#

And got a meh upgrade

soft scroll
#

@mighty rampart you talking about the encounter?

mighty rampart
#

yee

#

all I keep getting are the damn traders

soft scroll
#

it should be fairly easy to find one

steep violet
#

Sweet and my second ship doesn't eat me!

soft scroll
#

try a different system

mighty rampart
#

ikr?? but lady luck hates me

foggy jacinth
#

LOL dammit, on this save, the next plaque is on an ocean world, and there's nothing but tiny islands. Took me a while to find the damn thing.

grave oasis
#

Lol

#

Iโ€™ve had that before

mighty rampart
#

its always in an ocean planet btw

#

the first one

foggy jacinth
#

Huh. My first ship, it was a watery planet, but hte plaque was on a fairly large land mass.

soft scroll
#

i don't know how the system works for the space encounters, but there does seem to be a system for them, depending on the star type you go to, sometimes i've gotten encounters like every 5 minutes, other times its always been freighters etc

little badge
#

i got an encounter that reused the abyssal horror eyestalk model and i didnโ€™t know what to do so i shot it and it said DON'T DO THAT and i bailed

mighty rampart
#

I was hoping the eggs wont count for this

grave oasis
#

Maybe a system with more redacted planets and the like will result in stranger things in space ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

mighty rampart
#

other encounters I know are system dependent

soft scroll
#

so maybe it determines exactly what/how many times you'll get an encounter as soon as you enter the system or something

#

yeah most encounters depend on the star type

#

but i get the feeling something else is involved to determine exactly how many or what type appear, rather than it solely being a spin of the wheel when ever you get into pulse mode, unless the wheel has different percentages for things, with Freighter being more common and the rest being split evenly into small percentages

deep sluice
#

i missed my void egg transmission. will i get another one?

soft scroll
#

you mean from the mothership?

deep sluice
#

yes i think so

#

like i didnโ€™t accept the transmission fast enough

soft scroll
#

do you still have the egg in your inventory?

deep sluice
#

yes

soft scroll
#

then you should be able to go out and pulse and get the transmission again

Egg mission (living ship) error.

When I go through the portal, the system teleports to the wrong place.
This is already after the 21/02/2020 update.
i reloaded the backup, reinstalled the game but unfortunately the bug is up.

deep sluice
#

pulse or warp?

soft scroll
#

@uncut harness are you putting in the correct code?

outer cobalt
#

It may take a while, but most likely yes. I fled once to cancel it, then after some time it started again, because I had another egg left in inventory

soft scroll
#

the only way you'll be getting the wrong place is if you put in the wrong code from the egg

uncut harness
#

both

#

code good

soft scroll
#

you sure? because otherwise you should be ending up on the correct planet

outer cobalt
#

I assume you are in Euclid?

uncut harness
#

there are only 1 planet
then I read on the forum after completing the quests

rigid willow

I have been pulsing for a bit but I haven't been able,to get anything for the matured brain stem yet. :/

uncut harness
#

if I'm teleporting from another galaxy you can't go?

foggy jacinth
#

@uncut harness You need to be in Euclid

uncut harness
#

ahha

soft scroll
#

so you're in the wrong galaxy?

foggy jacinth
#

If you're not, and can't get back, go to the Anomaly and visit some other folk's bases there. Most of those will be in Euclid.

Hey, I'm having an issue in the second locations with the void egg, when i fly around the planet to get the coordinates right, it crashes the game. Probably 4 times now. Anyone else having this?

soft scroll
#

are you sure it has to do with the game and not your machine?

uncut harness
#

Its my console, hasn't crashed before.

soft scroll
#

is it really hot when it crashes?

uncut harness
#

I'm entering and exiting the planet to allow for quicker flying to the coordinates.

foggy jacinth
#

Has anyone determined if you can get space void eggs / LIving ship upgrades if you're not flying a living ship?

pliant root
#

2nd marker showed up fine on visor

soft scroll
#

@foggy jacinth as far as we know you can only encounter space void eggs while in a living ship

foggy jacinth
#

@soft scroll ok, thx

soft scroll
#

@uncut harness if it only happens when you're constantly exiting/entering, then its probably your console crashing

#

my game sometimes crashes if i tab in and out too quickly

uncut harness
#

Yeah, it might not like the transition between in and outer atmosphere?

There is a lot going on and I'm flying pretty erratically.

This is on Base Xbox One, so could be just an issue with that.

half linden
#

so what are people doing to get the best upgrades for the ship? also is there a way to get a scanner for the living ship?

outer cobalt
#

Going in and out of atmosphere is performance heavy, as it prepares loading in out different scenes

soft scroll
#

constantly going in and out means it has to bring up the ground everytime you get back into atmosphere, and so might not have gotten rid of the ground after you left, and doing that constantly would cause the game to crash, or even your console

foggy jacinth
#

@half linden just shooting void eggs as you encounter them. No other way that I know. Mine have scanners, I think.

outer cobalt
#

Upgrades for 6 technologies are available

ivory crown
#

living ship scanner upgrade?

soft scroll
#

whatever you get out of a space egg is random really, so all you can do is pulse in and out to try and get as many eggs as possible

outer cobalt
#

I don't believe so, I could be mistaken

#

Just the 6 you start with, all have upgrades

soft scroll
#

the exact tech we can get for our ships is still unknown since it's so early in the update, we're still trying to determine what space encounters we can get and what they give and where you can find them, so getting info about the living ships themselves is going to be awhile

grave oasis
#

Anyone manage to find like a warp drive upgrade or any of those sought after upgrades?

#

Turning this thing into the next Bugatti space whale is no small feat.

outer cobalt
#

The ones I know of currently are Pulse, Launch, Hyperdrive, Shield, Gun and Laser

grave oasis
#

Hmm

#

Iโ€™ve just run into weapon improvements so far

regal zinc
#

I've only gotten the laser so far.

#

Seems like getting this baby geared is going to be a marathon. ๐Ÿ˜‰

grave oasis
#

Mhmm

#

Which is nice cause at the end of it this thing really will feel quite personal

soft scroll
#

especially if you have multiple

grave oasis
#

Right lol i think i can only handle one atm though i do have the open space for more ships so ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

soft scroll
#

i've got 4 currently

#

but i plan on finding more good looking ones

#

either i'll have 6 living ships, or i'll replace my current 4

foggy jacinth
#

@outer cobalt Do you know if anyone is collating the encounters vs star type etc?

soft scroll
#

@foggy jacinth you mean determining which encounter spawns in which star type?

grave oasis
#

Ya Iโ€™ve got 1 exotic 1 squid 3 og fighters and the organic

foggy jacinth
#

@soft scroll yes

soft scroll
#

they haven't figured out the systems just yet, but its being organised

@foggy jacinth I do not know of anyone, but I am sure someone is or will do so

Encounters vs system is interesting, but possibly Living Ship too?

soft scroll
#

the only thing affected by living ship as far as we know is the space void egg

grave oasis
#

Well you have to be in the living ship to get the encounter

strong bluff

Living ship looks nice, but I am busy with Atlas path and finishing Euclid Galaxy.

soft scroll

the rest can be triggered by anyone

grave oasis
#

For the egg that is

strong bluff
#

Yep, Living Ship encounter begins the quest.

safe ginkgo
#

How do you find the void eggs humming coordinates that keep changing?

foggy jacinth
#

@safe ginkgo 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.

soft scroll
#

console in your ship displays co-ords while in atmosphere

#

get as close as you can, then hop out your ship

safe ginkgo
#

Oh ok thanks @foggy jacinth

soft scroll
#

then use visor to get even closer and keep an eye out for ancient plaques

half linden
#

has anyone gotten an econemy scanner upgrade for the living ships?

grave oasis
#

Oh thatโ€™s right how is all that gonna work.

#

Gonna need to grind these egg encounters.

strong bluff

If you manage to encounter them.

half sphinx
#

i have been pulsing for like 5 minutes and no mothership thing has appeared yet, i have egg in inventory , is there something i am missing ?

soft scroll

its random

#

switching systems can help

foggy jacinth

@half sphinx Did you buy your egg, or were you given it?

half sphinx
#

@foggy jacinth bought

foggy jacinth
#

ok, you're good. Some that are gifted don't work.

thats weird

pretty much yeah

half sphinx

cool......

thank you both ๐Ÿ™‚

dull ocean
#

What's the best way to upgrade the living ships?

soft scroll
#

pulse while flying in a living ship, eventually you'll encounter a large void egg in space

#

shoot it, and a living ship part will drop

dull ocean
#

I know, but it's taking ages to find even one

soft scroll
#

try different systems

#

its all random based

#

for both getting an egg and getting a good part

#

theres no other way to get upgrades for it as far as we know

pliant root
#

Somehow ended up with an LS that has no broken components and has a lot of storage slots.

soft scroll
#

how many slots?

safe ginkgo
#

@foggy jacinth yeah I'm not having much luck finding it

#

Oh crap nvm

pliant root
#

37 total (both chambers)

icy citrus
#

That's low

pliant root
#

More damage stats than my hauler but overall a downgrade in terms of hyperdrive

#

its more slots than the first LS I got last night before I had to re-load and do the last portion of the mission again

icy citrus
#

I thought they were all 22/21

pliant root
#

They vary

#

The one last night had what seemed like a half dozen or more broken components

#

Either way, I'm glad the whole thing is over lol

icy citrus
outer cobalt
#

The broken components was like a bug

mighty rampart
#

ya

outer cobalt
#

Basically the crash site acted like a regular crash site while it shouldn't have

#

I believe that has been fixed now

pliant root
#

Ah ok

because I was like 'yyyeaahh...I don't want to fix all that

half linden

if you want to see a bunch of the different types of living ship styles go check out nmseeds.club

half sphinx
#

people on YT been saying pulse for 20 seconds lmao i have for 10 minutes in 3 systems lol still nothing

strong bluff
#

I have it rarely too.

stiff bloom
#

I've been farming the void eggs in space for upgrades and I've only gotten S, A, B grade for weapons only. Shields, pulse drive, launcher and hyperdrive I've only gotten C grade

strong bluff
#

Maybe it depends on how far we are from space objects, time how long we are pulse driving and RNG.

soft scroll
#

generally you should be pulsing from one planet to the furthest planet away, usually taking like 30sec-1min

half sphinx
#

exactly what i have been doing

strong bluff
#

I did and still didnยดt have luck encountering anything.

half sphinx
#

3 systems , still nothing :(8

strong bluff
#

Or if had, very rarely.

soft scroll
#

you'll usually get an encounter then, sometimes you might get one directly after an encounter, but its all random

strong bluff
#

Procedually generated.

half sphinx
#

oh well , in time then i suppose

stiff bloom
#

I had the chance to encounter one after saving in my capitol ship. So I've been reloading the auto save ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

strong bluff
#

Save scumming...

#

But yep, effective way.

#

Anyway, result? ๐Ÿค”

stiff bloom
#

I've been farming the void eggs in space for upgrades and I've only gotten S, A, B grade for weapons only. Shields, pulse drive, launcher and hyperdrive I've only gotten C grade

^

strong bluff
#

Nice.

#

We can also pulse drive infinitely just in deep space instead of pulsing to any planet.

#

Though I remember seeing in old videos (where players were trying to pulse drive to star or to other star system) that if we pulse drive too far from the planets, the game gets bugged.

soft scroll
#

yeah but i haven't gotten a lot of encounters going into deep space, i've almost always gotten them around the planets

#

occasionally one would show up just as i'd turn around to go the other direction

strong bluff
#

Maybe when the system is generated, the game generates randomly positions and if we are near them while pulse driving, it triggers the random encounter there? ๐Ÿค”

half linden
#

i get most of mine flying out to deeps space for like 2 min then turn around andi get them on the way back to the planets

half sphinx
#

Oh oh oh

#

I found

stiff bloom
#

Well after reloading the save if I go to any direction I get the same void egg encounter

half sphinx
#

Asteroids

strong bluff
#

Or it works with some dynamic world?

#

Which we donยดt see?

stiff bloom
#

So direction doesn't matter

soft scroll
#

nah i don't think specific spots matter, i think it might have a randomly generated wheel that determines if you get an encounter or not

#

putting specific spots on is kind of stupid since we'll be flying around all the time really and could miss the spots

#

having it based on how long we've been pulsing for/having randomyl generated while pulsing would avoid that issue

foggy jacinth
glad tartan
#

Did they fix the ship bugs yet?

stiff bloom
#

Yeah I think is how long you been pulsing

half sphinx
#

Is 10 minutes pulsing in straight line not long enough hehe :)

stiff bloom
#

Maybe try going to another system

soft scroll
#

try relogging, that might help

half sphinx
#

4 systems , 10 minute pulse each and no luck, ok relog may help who knows:)

glad tartan
#

Are you trying to get another ship?

half sphinx
#

Trying to start the questline for my 1st ship ,I have the egg

#

''Starbirth'' quest

half linden
#

got it finally?

half sphinx
#

no that is what i am trying to get to trigger ๐Ÿ™‚

half linden
#

i found out that the stacking mod i was using was breaking the quest

glad tartan
#

How did you get your egg?

half linden
#

do you have all the drives? i think you need to have them all to get it done but i dont know for sure

half sphinx
#

i bought my egg , not given so no worries there, i don't use mods so no worry there

#

i have all drives so no worry there

half linden
#

not sure just poor luck i suppose

glad tartan
#

Try using a black hole

half sphinx
#

i guess it really is random and i have bad luck lol

glad tartan
#

Mine got stuck aswell & using a black hole made it unstuck

half sphinx
#

I'll try black hole as last resort :)

glad tartan
#

You can always teleport back from a space station

half sphinx
#

Of course :)

glad tartan
#

My bug was seeing the Fallen Host (for more ships) icon but nothing was there, but going through a black hole fixes it

half sphinx
#

Ok I'll go through a black hole and see if your theory/idea works :)

glad tartan
#

I hope it does

#

Nothing to lose right?

half sphinx
#

Exactly :)

glad tartan
#

but I do hope it works out for you

half sphinx
#

I hope it triggers the questline too

glad tartan
#

If not, another last resort, discard the egg, get a new one

half sphinx
#

Noooooo

glad tartan
#

I can give you one of my spares, no problems there

half sphinx
#

Lol

#

Yeah i have 50 quicksilver hehe

glad tartan

As a complete last resort, I can always give you another one

half sphinx

gone through black hole , now pulsing to furthest planet and passing other planets on the way , nothing yet

lusty hare
#

@half sphinx So, you have the egg, but Starbirth isn't triggering for you? Youve been to the abandoned building and got the message there?

glad tartan
#

Try warping to a system closeby

half sphinx
#

@lusty hare i have done every thing , i am now at the stage of pulsing to trigger the starbirth mission , but nothing for 40 minutes so far in 4 systems , 10 minute pulse each

#

i have done that 3 times @glad tartan

glad tartan
#

I've been trying to understand the system, and I have found out that warping to a different system & then pulse pops my thingy quickly, also types of planets change visuals on your ship

signal venture

i just got a free living ship. i logged in and there was a quest marker leading me to a crashed host. anyone else get this?

glad tartan

Don't pulse for 10 mins, I do 40 seconds max each

soft scroll
#

it can happen

#

its a bug

generally you're only supposed to get a LS from using the egg

lusty hare
#

@half sphinx Sorry it is happening to you, but I am kind of glad that it isnt just me... please let me know if you manage to fix it

half sphinx
#

@glad tartan ik and exactly so it is not triggering for me , bug or bad luck

glad tartan
#

Wait, is your egg singing already?

half sphinx
#

@lusty hare has ''star Birth'' not triggered for you either yet ?

#

ok here goes

glad tartan
#

Iirc, you need to warp several times to get the egg to sing

half sphinx
#

listen up

lusty hare
#

@half sphinx nope. I did get the living ship to show up while I was pulsing, but it didnt actually start the mission

half sphinx

i have bought my egg , did the singing crap , went through portal address and went to abandoned building and listen to the final words , now i am at the starbirth trigger part and it is not triggering

does the egg have anything in its description?

hello
Egg mission (living ship) error.

When I go through the portal, the system teleports to the wrong place.
This is already after the 21/02/2020 update.
i reloaded the backup, reinstalled the game but unfortunately the bug is up.

since then I went to EUCLID Galaxys and tried it from there. I found the erpetrith raya. I waited, I flew, I went everywhere and nothing. could this be a mistake? fault?

thanks for the reply.

glad tartan
#

There's 2 different void egg quest, the old one, and the new one

#

but honestly, I was quite sleep deprived & high while I did my thing so I really don't remember much, sorry

half sphinx
#

egg mission is euclid only

#

@glad tartan i have the new egg and quest that went with it , the glyphs etc

#

done it all

uncut harness
#

Yes. I'm in that galaxy

glad tartan
#

So you matured all pieces already?

uncut harness
#

yes

glad tartan

Was talking to @half sphinx ๐Ÿ˜›

So your issue is that the portal adress you got is wrong?

half sphinx
#

hold on

#

wires getting crossed

glad tartan
#

Tell me about it LOL

half sphinx
#

@uncut harness go to euclid then find a portal and type the glyph address to the next stage of the egg

glad tartan
#

@uncut harness If you hover over your egg, does it say a bunch of things with EUCLID EUCLID EUCLID at the end?

half sphinx

you then find the abandoned building to finish that part and then come back through the portal

wha

half sphinx
#

@glad tartan matured , i only have the egg lol

what does the quest say for it?

there is no fecking quest , i am waiting to trigger starbirth quest , which is the egg for the egg to become a ship ? ๐Ÿ˜

uncut harness
#

and

glad tartan
#

@uncut harness You are on the wrong world buddy

soft scroll
#

but you shouldn't have been able to go through the portal and the abandoned building without the quest

glad tartan
#

You need to find a SPECIFIC planet in the system your egg tells you to go to

#

Just go to every planet untill it gives you coordinates

icy citrus
#

If you used those glyphs for the last part, it is the wrong address

half sphinx
#

@soft scroll i think you are all getting confused on my situation

glad tartan

Prof hulk is legit at the start

''i have bought my egg , did the singing crap , went through portal address and went to abandoned building and listen to the final words , now i am at the starbirth trigger part and it is not triggering''

so it is just a matter of luck and randomness for this StarBirth questline to trigger which is the questline to birth the egg to a living ship

you can't have gone through the portal or gone to the abandoned building if you weren't on the quest already, unless you were involved in the experimental branch and did the egg quest that was there

After getting my LS, I went on the community mission and died, but the game crashed. Upon restarting, I was back to a manual save location that I did during the LS mission, but i still already had my LS. Then I got told to go imprint upon another...so now I have two

half sphinx
#

you stole my ship @glad tartan lol

#

you have mine and @lusty hare ships lmao

glad tartan
#

Ngl , I probably did

uncut harness
#

I try. Thanks

half sphinx
#

i will close game , verify files (who knows) and relog and try again

#

otherwise i am very unlucky

glad tartan
#

That's why I'm trying to help people out cause I'm feeling guilty haha

#

Copy your savefile & change the name the another number & try loading up that one

lusty hare
#

I even bought another egg to retry from the start

glad tartan
#

Dupe savefile would be a better term I guess

mighty rampart
#

anyone on the latest experimental with a living ship that has a procedural tech upgrade installed?

#

and isnt S class

uncut harness
#

Yes but I'm not on Experimental or do I have any tech installed.

glad tartan
#

5 ships but no upgrades , so can't help you rofl

cloud epoch
#

awww yiss, portals are fixed on experimental. no more getting stuck inside ๐Ÿ˜„

icy citrus
#

Lmao, thanks hex

cloud epoch
#

just tested and confirmed

icy citrus
#

Needed that

uncut harness
#

๐Ÿ™Œ

cloud epoch
#

also i like how HG just kinda slid right past pc players skipping the timegates and was like thanks to everyone who tested....

icy citrus
#

Part of the testing

#

Next update patches so you can't play offline

cloud epoch
#

i mean technically yes, so the best sort of yes

uncut harness
#

All data is valuable.

cloud epoch
#

hahaha

brittle current
#

Can i have 2 living ships on console now after this update?

outer cobalt
#

You should be fine getting a 2nd

proud gazelle
#

I've not been gifted the solar ray ... anyone else run into that issue ??

icy citrus
#

You could before, there just was an occasional bug - avoidable one also

brittle current
#

I had to reload my save to get the one to harvest wildlife

half sphinx
#

verified files ,restarted game , still no trigger and freighter spawned right inside my ship or me inside there ship and i got thrown across the system , but still no trigger lol

brittle current
#

So what to not do?

cloud epoch
#

are weekend missions still a thing? isnt it around the time those would happen?

icy citrus
#

When you claim it, hop in - if you die reload, and don't call in freighter before reloading

pliant root
#

Yeah, it's alread up @cloud epoch

brittle current
#

Sweet thanks

pliant root
#

Also, did someone say that experimental is allowing you to install upgrades in LSs?

cloud epoch
#

oh yeah i just scrolled up and saw the spoiler post thanks @foggy jacinth

icy citrus
#

Upgrade modules in them with nanites

pliant root
#

Ah ok

icy citrus
#

Dunno for how much or how high you can go - guessing S, but no one has reported back

pliant root
#

Cool deal.

#

I like my first LS better than the spare I have...I'd rather upgrade that one

proud gazelle
#

......... .... I've done many saves etc... so anyone know how to get the solar ray gifted to them ?

icy citrus
#

It is part of the egg quest - should give you the blueprint

#

It didn't?

proud gazelle
#

...... checking ... for the blueprint .. no I don't think I got one :|....

icy citrus
#

Goes on the multitool

half sphinx
#

ok just warped to 6 different systems , all different colours , some further away , some close by , pulsed for 30 seconds each and nothing , so i will assume its a bug and come try again in a day or so ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

proud gazelle
#

..ok.. ok .. Multitool ๐Ÿ˜„

#

jeez

icy citrus
#

Got it then?

lusty hare
#

I pulsed until I ran out of fuel 6 or 7 times before I saw the living ship come message me.... but then I still didnt get the mission

proud gazelle
#

@icy citrus - yeah ... you know it's one of the blueprints that I rarely look at since all my slots are filled up on my S class tool ๐Ÿ™‚

icy citrus
#

Sweet!

#

I had to install it on my second

proud gazelle
#

...... Blaze Javlin it replaced lol, I real use that item

wet phoenix
#

So i booted up the game game and had the starbirth quest again and it pointed me to a living ship right near my base

solemn hatch
#

Do you really have to wait 20 hours for this thing to mature?

icy citrus
#

Handy

wet phoenix
#

And i could take it without needing to pay nanites

icy citrus
#

Nah, you have to wait 20+ 4 times for it to mature

solemn hatch
#

Dang

icy citrus
#

Or change clock

half sphinx
#

@glad tartan maybe that spare egg might help ?

#

@glad tartan are you on PC ?

solemn hatch
#

Does changing clock work?

glad tartan
#

Yes I am

icy citrus
#

If you are offline

#

Save, go offline - change clock, stay offline

half sphinx
#

@glad tartan could i join you for that egg ?

glad tartan
#

Ofcourse

half sphinx
#

steam name is discord name ๐Ÿ™‚

glad tartan
#

Let me boot it up

half sphinx
#

Thank you

dense umbra
#

I need someone to help me with something so im on the last few steps on my alien ship mission and i need someone to put these glyphs in and i can join them since I donโ€™t have all the glyphs i play on ps4 my psn is XAVIERR_1 dm me if ur down to help

steel dove
#

so im on the egg mission i go to the planet type it asks me for.. i find the cordinates on the planet but now water everywhere and no abandoned buildings what to do? xD

soft scroll
#

under water?

tall hornet
#

Oh shit lol

steel dove
#

well it states that i should use the analysing visor to find buildings

tall hornet
#

Spam the land button until your ship accidentally lands?

steel dove
#

well theres small islands around but no building

icy citrus
#

That won't work @dense umbra

steel dove
#

i'll show u

icy citrus
#

Only the person that enters the glyphs can use the portal

steel dove
#

1 sec

icy citrus
#

And you can't join someone on the other side if they use it

glad tartan
#

Sec I'm struggling to find you @half sphinx

steel dove
dense umbra
#

@icy citrus if im ur friend i will be able to join ur game

steel dove
#

do i have to restort to resetting the mission somehow

dense umbra
#

Oh

#

Nvm ๐Ÿ˜”

steel dove
#

yes Xaviierr you would

icy citrus
#

Yes of course - but if they go through a portal you won't be on the same side ๐Ÿ’”

dense umbra
#

I just need to get on the planet

#

Not be with the other player

icy citrus
#

Need to get the glyphs I'm afraid - or try and find someone with a base there you could join

dense umbra
#

Ok

uncut harness
#

yo

#

how do i find the egg planet

foggy jacinth
#

Interesting. The egg quest can stat even if your egg is in your freighter inventory. I was trying to avoid starting it. ๐Ÿ™‚

uncut harness
#

why avoid starting it

foggy jacinth
#

Because I"m going the weekend event.

steel dove
#

should i like buy a chart from the Space stations for securte facilities nearby

uncut harness
#

how do i find the egg planet

soft scroll
#

@steel dove how close are you to the co-ords from where you are in the pic?

uncut harness
#

guess there's no answer to that

foggy jacinth
#

@uncut harness Does your egg say someting about colors?

uncut harness
#

ye

foggy jacinth
#

And this is your first planet? it's looking for a Mega-exotic, so something wiht a biome like Chromatic Fog, or Ultramarine, or [redacted]

uncut harness
#

well

#

im in the system the quest led me to

#

there's no such stuff

steel dove
#

@soft scroll well it states +10.??? amd -16.??? and im at -16.370 and +10.306 so im fairly close to it

soft scroll
#

and thats accurate from left to right for both?

icy citrus
#

Not if you are doing them in reverse order

foggy jacinth
#

@uncut harness No planets in that system have an odd biome?

soft scroll
#

cause otherwise you're on the opposite side

uncut harness
#

no

#

there's a sub zero planet

#

a desert planet

#

a freezing planet

steel dove
#

How do you mean opposite side? princess?

icy citrus
#

What does the freezing planet say for the description

soft scroll
#

the co-ords should be +whatever and -whatever to match what the egg asks for

uncut harness
#

frost crystal, emeril, and stuff like that

soft scroll
#

you've got -whatever and +whatever

icy citrus
#

Same for the sub zero?

foggy jacinth
#

@uncut harness ok. Can you type out what hte egg wants, or share a screenshot?

uncut harness
#

powerful anomalies and strange colours?

soft scroll
#

@uncut harness share a screen shot of what the eggs asks for, and what the biome is for each planet in the system

foggy jacinth
#

Yeah, that's a mega-exotic. I think Gleam is probably better to solve this one.

uncut harness
#

ok biome for first planet

#

freezing planet

#

the second

#

sub zero planet

#

the third planet

#

scalding planet

#

and the fourth

#

high temperature planet

foggy jacinth
#

another question, @uncut harness have you applied today's patch, 2.31?

uncut harness
#

i did

#

i think

#

i downloaded the update, i think?

tall hornet
#

@uncut harness What type of planet does the egg in your inventory tell you it wants?

icy citrus
#

Have you warped, and do you have a destination in the map?

uncut harness
#

powerful anomalies and strange colors

#

i warped to the destination of the quest

soft scroll
#

best you can do is just go to each planet indidividually and see if the quest changes once you're in atmosphere

#

, if it doesn't then you can move to the next etc

tall hornet
#

Yeah once you're in the atmosphere of the planet your HUD will update with "Suitable planet, coordinates +56.?? // -42.??

#

And as you get closer to the coordinates they update the ?? portions to finish out the exact coordinates.

misty citrus
#

how do I get a new marker to pop up? I closed my game yesterday after a crash and today there's no marker on the planet I was previously exploring

#

For the first part of Starbirth where I'm supposed to go to a marked system/planet

ivory crown
#

wait so youguys have the Living Ship storage expansion things in the test version?

outer cobalt
#

@misty citrus I would check the Galaxy Map and see if the system is still marked or leads elsewhere

misty citrus
#

It isn't still marked

#

can't see the marker anywhere in the vicinity of my system either

outer cobalt
#

With the quest active in Log, and Current Mission selected as filter, does a green line lead you to a new system?

foggy jacinth
#

@misty citrus Are you in sapce or on a planet? Scan, either way. Maybe that'll pop it up

tulip elbow
#

I uhhhhhhhh was towards a planet I was trying to scan then I was told to slow down and a destroyed freighter appeared what so I do

misty citrus
#

@outer cobalt my quest is active but there's no Current Mission option available in Galaxy Map @foggy jacinth I tried just now, no luck ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

glass path
#

as far as i can tell, they do nothing rn

foggy jacinth
#

@tulip elbow Those don't have any use that anyone has found, except they're cool to explore. Maybe they'll have a use in a future update?

tulip elbow
#

Fucc

#

I look like it has more space than mine and I want it

outer cobalt
#

Hmmm, no current mission doesn't sound good

vestal ledge
#

how many pieces does it take to find coords and wait 24 hours for?

#

im, on the heart right now

steep violet
#

Nah those direlect freighters seem to be a place for bounty or pirates to pop up at least thats what happened to me both times I found it and looked around

outer cobalt
#

So icon doesn't show, no current mission available, maybe pulse again and see if that starts things?

vestal ledge
#

i looked inside some abadoned freighters, you can shoot down the doors to the treasure vaults ( like the ones in crashed freighters on planets), but you can't access the storage cahce or anything

soft scroll
#

for the egg quest, you'll have 3 main pieces that will be around 24 hour each, and 2 final pieces that are 26 hours each

#

Derelict freighters are effectively useless right now

steel dove
vestal ledge
#

damn i don't want to do the timegate alteration cause im afraid of ruining the steam cloud sync

cloud epoch
#

tier 3 done on pc

misty citrus
#

gonna be bummed if I wasted 3300 quicksilver for this egg

vestal ledge
#

@steel dove look for a monolith nearby, or unknown building\

#

like a plaque not monolith, sorry

soft scroll
#

@steel dove you're on the opposite side of the planet

steep violet
#

@vestal ledge why not make a backup of your save as you go in case you hit problems?

vestal ledge
#

idk how to make a backup

#

_>

soft scroll
#

you're left side needs to be +10 and your right needs to be -16 @steel dove

vestal ledge
#

i've never done any tampering ever

rough phoenix
#

can be anywhere between 10.00/10.99 and -16/-16.99

uncut harness
#

right

#

i got the coordinates

#

wat do now

vestal ledge
#

still on the one save from the very start when NMS launched

steep violet
#

Find the save in %appdata% copy paste

steel dove
#

@soft scroll ok now i get it ๐Ÿ˜› thanks

steep violet
#

I just copy then entire NMS folder to a new folder on my extra drive. Its that simple lol

vestal ledge
#

hmm

violet narwhal
#

Manual saving every so often when you're in a definitely good state is always a good idea too.

steep violet
#

Also you can use the steam "play offline" feature so you dont have to turn the net off. Its under the steam dropdown

chilly drift
#

@steel dove When approaching the destination, the coordinates will update, it can take several time to find the exact coords' good luck ๐Ÿ˜„

misty citrus
#

would getting another void egg reset teh quest or am I just screwed

chilly drift
#

@misty citrus Did you delete your previous one ?

misty citrus
#

I didn't know that was a thing

outer cobalt
#

With the quest started, it uses the egg you currently have and should continue where you left off

cursive kernel
#

@uncut harness I KNOW

#

NOT TO BE RUDE BUT THAT'S LIKE THE FIFTH PING FOR THAT SPECIFIC PATCH NOTE

misty citrus
#

Yeah I've been system hopping in an attempt to 'find a new marked system' but I lost all my ship gear so I'm running low on warps

outer cobalt
#

Have you tried restarting the game?

misty citrus
#

yep

outer cobalt
#

Running out of ideas, sorry, make sure to report it to Zendesk, while hopefully getting back on track. Any save game you can reload prior to the current one?

#

!hg

misty citrus
#

my manual save is like a year old lmao

outer cobalt
#

Yikes

chilly drift
#

f

foggy jacinth
true spear
#

Eyy I have the exact same problem no marker and I deleted my egg and bought another one

misty citrus
#

this is my fault for getting pissed and quitting last night lol. I had to fly low on the planet to be able to see the coordinates on my ship without the 'glare' from the sun but it was literally lined with trees so I kept hitting them

#

@true spear Did that work for you?

true spear
#

nope

#

nothing changed

misty citrus
#

did you delete the quest before deleting the egg

cursive kernel
#

Is the weekend event to kill sentinel walkers

true spear
#

my manual save is from 3/4/2019

#

didn't know you can delete the quest

uncut harness
#

dude this fuckin quest i swear....

gloomy isle
#

Predictions for the next update?

jovial stag
#

More Eggs

misty citrus
#

@true spear Someone suggested it to me earlier but I don't know how

jovial stag
#

well 3rd waiting period started

icy citrus
#

Lots more eggs

#

And this time we can decorate them

misty citrus
#

oh you can't abandon it, or at least I can't. maybe since you're on a new egg you can abandon it?

gloomy isle
#

Living exosuits

icy citrus
#

It is alive already

half sphinx
#

ok this is very weird

gloomy isle
#

Ja?

half sphinx
#

people who did all the egg stuff from living update did it differently then those that did the egg before the living update

#

why the feck won't my mission trigger , i was one who did it before living update
