kinda
Save before the last communication
but mine is extremely lucky keep in mind
and I'll know the last communication because?
it’ll tell you to go home
How do i do the "skip thing" exactly?
How many possible formats of the alien ship are there, excluding color.
After your charge the soul chamber, before you get in your ship
@gaunt kettle go offline and change your time in your pc settings
jump up and down while swinging a rope @gaunt kettle 😉
Im ps4 @hot wigeon
then do it in your ps4 settings
just turn your wifi off in settings too @gaunt kettle
oh my bad
I just dont understand how to find the exact location this egg is giving me
im at the coordinates but i dont know what im looking for
The first couple are plaques
im just aimlessly walking around
how big are they?
its latitude and longitude
a bit smaller than the monoliths
It's called a Plaque
I just posted a picture in :screenshots not too long ago with one in it
Yes
@inland patio Eh, I've never save edited to get a ship I want.
a korvax one anyway
So I got another void egg and have pulse warped in space 8-9x in 3-4 systems and I see nothing coming to talk to me about growing a new ship. What is the process here, then?
are they marked when scanning or?
@spice gorge Did you buy the egg, or was it given to you? Pulsing around should bring the mothership, who will point you to a location where you can evolve a new one for 10K nanites.
@wanton leaf They're marked as unknown buildings. I sometimes use the photo mode, or an exocraft, to move around to find them.
these things look seriously sick in a freighter
.mov didnt work for me
Can anyone help me? I got the signal to go get my living ship, but when I get there it's a normal crashed ship
restart your game @cerulean stump
gotcha, thanks
should have gone with .rm
Can I put the finished things in my frigate without worry?
I always get them confused because I'm dumb
Nah
upgrading this living ship is probably the hardest things the world has ever faced
Can anyone on PS4–Normal taxi me to the planet at the end of the Starbirth quest that requires the ||portal glyphs? I don’t have all of them yet.||
Can provide a free Void Egg 🥚 
(Or at least activate a portal for me)
@foggy jacinth I bought it
Excellent. Some gifted eggs don't work.
Eggcellent*
Why does Apollo look like Melmetal from pokemon
Only have 8,500 nanites on me atm
@gaunt kettle it's ok
@icy citrus also I've actually started working on an underwater base
Sweet!
huh? 
any theory on what the numbers mean when interacting with that thing?
no idea ... 
I could not damage this thing at all.
Supposed to pet it
@spice gorge same

I wish it were not the case that we had to blow everything we meet in space up to get the goods.
what do you do with the broken freighters?
Nothing right now
@spice gorge there is at least one thing you don't have to shoot and get treasure from
they just ‘look cool’?
@cloud rune that's won't work... if you join someone or they join you and they activate the portal it will be active for them only in order for you to activate it you need all the glyphs, and joining someone who's already in the system you want to go to won't work either if they've used a portal to go there as you will be placed in the system the left from
@jovial stag you can teleport in the anomaly with your friend and it’ll bring you both to where you teleport
ex: space station
I shot open a Damaged Panel on a Freighter and flew inside .. can't open the container or land .. almost got stuck in there
Still need the system though, and traveling there by portal doesn't give it
not even going to the space station?
Nope
For starbirth, where I have to find a system marked with voidegg icon, is it only in euclid or can it be found in any galaxy?
So saying that out loud - group warp doesn't solve it at all
Could just as easily join them if they have the planet legitimately
all white meets white
are there a certain amount of random experiences you can get per galaxy before you need to go to a different one?
@fossil magnet YOu can do most of the Void Egg stuff in anohter galaxy, but there's one step that has to be done in Euclid.
no real reason to
how long does it take for the little brain to mature
Just for fun. I was in the middle of galaxy marathon
the green galaxy has a lot of lush though
yeah a higher percentage of lush. i'm in eissentam
might have to swing by
but tbh, the more you have of something the less enjoyment/surprise you'll have
So I already completed the Starbirth quest but the game glitched me back into it and I can't do any more void eggs bc its bugged out into searching for the coordinates the egg wants
imo
@nocturne zephyr but you can find a really nice one and then set up a base, then teleport back to euclid
yeah true
according to my luck. apparently a green gassed, blue water planet is impossible to exist
unless it has storms that last 20 minutes with 2-4 minute intervals
i feel like there are a ton of green grass blue water planets out there. but yeah, it's sometimes tough to find one without annoying, constant storms
my current base is blue and green grass with red water and storms ever so often
I am about to sell off the first ship I really used a lot... it is a bit sad. I kept it this long for nostalgia.... should I dismantle any of its tech before scrapping?
if it’s worth the materials then sure
but it gives you less money when you scrap it @lusty hare
@lusty hare I always dismantle the tech, to get the materials back
the inspace broke freighters are kind of annoying imo
i wish you could land on them and tether to your ship to explore them
jump 11 and still no contact
@charred stratus You're trying to activate you egg? Pulse, not warp.
really?
damn.
yup
....I just died inside a little and that fixedx it
7, I think
@foggy jacinth thanks
By the way guys for anyone who doesn't know yet the living ship is a stupidly long quest to collect creat and grow each part of the ship and it's a fetch quest to very specific coordinates on several very hostile planets so if you want this new ship be prepared to go through hours of soul crushing fetch quest.
Thanks!
and now you're just being a jerk.
It was fun!
I have to wait 24 hours for the next quest? what
I enjoyed looking for the coordinates the most, though they did like 5 or 6 minutes each time
Just pulsing around. Stopped to make a gold mine.
Same
It's got fun elements to it I just feel people who hate fetch quests need to know it's alot of fetch.
should use them in weekend events
dang
imagine all the players figuring out coordinates for events
i think we did have one months back
that sounds good
@foggy jacinth does switching galaxies do anything? or should i just stay in one? also, i just buy gold
Do i really have to wait 24 hours for this thing to mature? Or is there a way to just skip that
26
@hot wigeon I've been trying different star colors. I don't think the galaxy makes a difference.
@wanton leaf go offline and change the time on your pc/console
Don't buy gold man just blast a few asteroids
@foggy jacinth alright
How do you get the coords to stabilize I hate this lmao
you don't
@proven needle i have 1.5B and destroying asteroids is too time consuming
you go on foot and track it with visor
@keen remnant The coordinates change every few seconds. Kinda take an average, and get close. Land. 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. There is also a video in the pinned messages that explains how the coordinates work. Or, use your photo mode to look around.
if you're close, you can see it as a marker on visor
@foggy jacinth also, does stopping your pulse and starting it again effect the interaction rate?
@hot wigeon time consuming indeed
Thinking about getting a different living ship
@cursive kernel send me urs
It just keeps me going on a small circle and there’s nothing here 😭 it’s literally big open land and no buildings.
@hot wigeon I don't know.
@keen remnant the unstable coordinates are a hard azz one to do
@hot wigeon I refuse
Mine didn't show up till I was 50u away from it
@cursive kernel 😡😡😡
@hot wigeon 😳 😳 😳
@cursive kernel you did not just go there.
@hot wigeon but i did
all i have to say about ATLAS and ABYSS is: the matrix
any tips for the living water?
@charred stratus go into space
@charred stratus and fly to the space station
@cursive kernel this is war.
@hot wigeon 🔫 🔫 🔫
@cursive kernel 💣
Dm for flirting
😳
shame <@&411889431939776512> we cant trade ships.. i would kill for that ship

hmm

🤨
yep .. went from 5k from the core to 700K from the core 😑
ahhahaha
doesn't really matter .. I'm fully mobile .. been to the core before 
yeah, plus starbase teleporters are a thing
it's not like you just end up lost in space
I can summon my freighter anywhere .. I'm just jumping around waiting for next egg contact anyway
do I need to carry the neural stem? 
I teleported through the relic gate
Was 709k away from the center
Ended up 689k away from the center
Instantly got bored and teleported back to another galaxy.
How big is the radius of a galaxy approximately?
ima pass next time .. my curiosity is satisfied 😑
Do you mean galaxy or system, either way I don't know
Systems have planets, galaxies have systems, the universe has galaxies
Yes, I mean galaxy.
finally found an S-Class MT 👍
god damn that's sexy
@graceful spire The rim of the Galaxy is called The Fade. There's info about it on the wiki.
I'm having trouble with the system clock cheat for the living ship. Anyone been able to do that successfully, repeatedly, on Windows 10?
only took me 1400 hours 👍
well, the S class part, visually it's a little boring
pass on it and keep looking for an alien one :p
@supple relic You need to stay offline for hte entire time.
all about the stats 
Alien would have better damage and scanner
also, if you are doing it with Steam, Steam needs to be in offline mode
Just saying
Maybe that's the issue... I got it to work once, for the Stem, but I couldn't reproduce it again.
@hot wigeon you got a seed code for that living ship?
relaunch steam in offline mode
and don't put it back online until you are done with the quest
and have your ship
Alright, I will try that, thanks!
and of course don't change your system clock while the game is running
hax 
so you launch the game from offline steam, get to the time gate, exit the game, change system clock, launch game from offline steam, etc
wooo i found a space egg
grats, hope it's an S class
"The Heart is too fragile for use" Man, right in the feels
Unless you’re like me and wait the timegates legitimately who’s still only 3/4ths into getting a living ship
A spewing vents lol

loving people losing their shit at having to wait for things
I’ve been a lot more patient than I anticipated. I was not this way during WT. not in the slightest
Don't care how. I want it now
maybe some of look at being locked out of something for 24 hours as a bad replacement for gameplay
what are you locked out of? the rest of the game is there
@wind sphinx i do
most of us complaining have done just about everything else in the game, so we were looking forward to doing the quest and then playing with our ship
congrats. you're in a minority
Thanks
what. is. this. what. do. i. do. with. it.
What is an anomalous numbers station?
Not sure what it is but it sounds and looks neat. Loving the alien stuff in the update
well a numbers station irl is a station that just spits out numbers
it's a colony ship
a number of the events you get from pulse jumps don't actually do or provide you with anything, they are just curiosities
this one? @cloud epoch
yes
what does it do?
lore
-_-
think of it as a boundary failure in space
wdym
those just give lore as well
I had a spy station show up that informed me some random gek had bought too much dirt
😎
when i first played i bought loads of dirt thinking that it would be worth loads in another system
I mean it is, if you go to the right economy type
seems everywhere has dirt, and have no need for it
what even does dirt do
all the trade goods sell in a specific economy type for big money
@formal furnace i never found it 🙂
trade goods don't "do" anything
Does anyone have a cheat sheet for what glyphs gets called what by the void egg, btw?
There are 7 economy types in the game, each economy sells 5 different trade goods, so there are 35 different types of trade goods
can you plant plants on the normal ground?
depends on the biome, but yes
why am i putting this in spoilers
@formal furnace that worked, thanks again!
ight finally got the heart
Oooh, thanks, Mistik, I should have checked those pins first 🤦
if you look at the description of the trade good you bought, it will show the economy type you want in green
i got 3 left right?
mhm
getting these modules is a pain
I spent an hour and a half trying to farm living ship modules last night
why is my hyperdrive base range so low?
I found 2, a B and an S class, and probably 15 derelict freighters and as many useless traders
Cause
time to pulse untill it arrives
what's your base hyperdrive range?
the living ships all fall within ~150-165 hyperdrive range
Which is good
so yours is 301 so I assume you got a module to bump it
mine was 214ly base
So I have another wait period, do I just save and quit and change the time and then come back in?
the only module i have gives 87ly
but you paired it with your hyperdrive organ
Plus the bonus
so they got boosted
just leave your ship and look at it with your visor
it will tell you the actual base
alright i’ll see
though I think the pair bonus makes that show up wrong since my exotic shows me like 1000 base from my visor
which is clearly wrong
Base is for without bonus synergy and bonus range applied - or should be
yeah should be, my exotic shows me an impossible number, but only for hyperdrive range
the shield, damage, and maneuverability base showing when looking through my visor are all within acceptable ranges
go into your living ship and move the module away from the organ it's paired with, might give you the right number
It is adding the module and the core stat, no bonus synergy
and if not, I guess it's just bugged
i’m looking at it in my visor
I think it's a display bug David
people datamined
well... people were wrong
and the ships people have got have all started at 150-165
lol
yeah, you could do that
hard save so you don't accidentally overwrite with an autosave
alright
and when I say display bug, I mean the base stat it's showing you is incorrect. The effective value is true and what is being used, but the base range is not possible unless your ship is bugged in a good way, but what is more likely is that your base is somewhere between 150-165 even though it's showing you 210
the base stat isn't actually used for anything, so it displaying incorrectly wouldn't actually affect anything
How did y’all fast forward these wait times? I tried and it didn’t change lol
@gaunt kettle It's safest to stay offline with your clock changed for hte entire quest, rather than setting it back multiple times.
@keen remnant are you on wifi?
what platform are you playing on Pert?
@formal furnace yeah, just a glitch lol
@keen remnant You need to be offline, not connected to the internet.
if you play through steam, your computer can be online, but you have to run Steam in offline mode
@foggy jacinth I have been doing that so im on the road
So it’s not possible on console’s?
I'm doing it on PS4 right now
I did it n PS4. Worked fine.
@foggy jacinth did you get any S class modules? i’ve gotten 7 modules, 1 S class, 3 B, and 3 C
Question: Does a void egg get refunded if you reject a specimen?
1 S so far.
You will be able to upgrade those soon
with nanites right?
I got 2 eggs so far, S and B
Yep
how can you tell what your stat bonuses are on a ship?
okay, can a monolith spawn on an anomalous planet? because My egg's calling me to a location on a sporal planet, but there's no monolith and it's not narrowing down coords
That one is a boundary failure
hhung if you look at your ship through your visor you will see the effective and base stats
Big ring thing
@uncut harness don't think so
okay, so my quest is glitched then
not necessarily
land at the coordinates you have and use your visor
to look for nearby buildings
the coordinates are often not precise and the actual thing you are looking for is 4-500 distance away
double check your at the right +/- values. I made that mistake and searched the wrong area for like an hour
Did that too
if its showing .?? your not as close as you think, you should get .XX when your close
just keep doing bigger and bigger circles around it, people have mentioned they had to go around a bit until it finally refined it
you have to get fairly close before it refines, closer than you can necessarily know without the refinement
yeah, I wish I had known I was looking for one of those instead of a plaque thing... took me forever to find it
Can't fly by one of those without flying through...
Nope!
very creepy lore from the terminals, as well, when they're not being used in missions.
Yes, read them sometime if you haven't newbies
I've done everything for the living ship and I can not for the life of me find a portal. Any help? On ps4
@azure prism Every planetary body in the game has a portal. 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.
Once you find the portal, you have to charge the glyphs, with elements such as oxygen and cobalt. Fully charge all 16, and then you can dial.

how do i get living water
@brave crow Launch into space, and pulse.
also i found my first abandoned space station!
the quest tells you how
it just says "find living water in deep space"
"deep space"
@brave crow Yeah. Pulse, and you'll get an encounter.
so it's not on your feet
igh
It's one of the best parts of the whole quest! @brave crow
rasama in an abandoned space station is gonna be an AWESOME pick
when i get internet back on ill post it here
I just realized this star system has two sporal planets
If you're getting coordinates, you're on the right one. But yeah, there can be multiples
me too. I have used up a TON of gold...
Gonna use 21 of the 22 main for them, and all organ chamber of course
living ships have upgrades?
Modules yeah
Although I suppose they aren't modules
rip indium drive
Living and all
"organ chamber" sounds like a horror story basement
Living ships can jump to all star colors, without any upgrades.
ima do this third quest then sleep cuz its 00:17 for me
okay, i'm confused. i'm on the second leg, it says go to space, find the system, okay now find the planet, okay now find the coordinates, i did all that just fine. coordinates kept changing around but i found a building marker. i go there and the building marker points to the inside of a tiny island and there's nothing there. now it says go back to the galaxy map again. also, somehow, i now have three "stirring eggs"
ill do the last 2 tomorrow
is this bugged? what is going on
oh i thought u said it was bugged nvm
also my space station in my current system is abandoned
and since i have the original default rasmama (clone in BEYOND), flying in it and landing seems nostalgic
and a perfect screenshot oppertunity
what does the description say?
Im pretty sure my starbirth mission is broken
What’s wrong with it?
I got to the coordinates on the correct planet, there was nothing there, the marker disappeared then the mission told me to go back to the galaxy map. I do that and no planet is marked and there's no 'current mission' line
@uncut vale, try reloading. That usually fixes most issues with the quest. You can also try going to the cords and use the analysis visor to look for an ‘unknown building’. Sometimes the quests cords are off
I've tried reloading which didnt work, but I'll try looking for a building.
I wonder if the color of the module-carrying void eggs is indicative of the class of module? That one was red, and gave me an A.
@uncut vale i'm having the same problem, i'm just gonna see where it leads me now
its half past midnight but i wanna keep going with the missions
cuz i aint tired
lol
it... uh, it's not leading me anywhere....
I just assumed the colors were random - I want to say I have gotten B and C from red, but I'm not positive
I'll pay more attention to that now
I just started tracking it as well.
Yellow and got an S
You guys got any tips for farming those things? I have terrible luck when it comes to finding them
Get luckier lol
I don't really do anything special - right now I am focusing on just empty systems
What is a jettisoned storage silo do? How do I get in?
Gray egg, white glow - C class
My theory is that different systems are more likely to have certain space events. I had one system that was constant trader interactions and another that was constant wrecked freighters. So I should be able to find a system that has a high density of void thingies
Also, I believe you just shoot them to get shiny loot.
That could very well be
Different systems have felt different to me, in terms of how often events occur - but that could be bad luck in those also
If it happened to you and it happened to me, it’s probably more than just bad luck
I'm tracking my space encounters, so maybe I'll find a pattern.
If you wantto give me your data, i'll track that too.
Sure! I haven’t been recording my encounters but I’ll start doing that
Red system, uninhabited, one egg - nothing else in 5 minutes
Ouch
I'm collecting Star Type| Wealth Level | Economy Type
How do i spawn the... "Contact" for starbirth?
Got your egg and stuff Gleam
Just pulse out in space for awhile and it’ll come up
@brittle kelp I've been doing that for about an hour now
Did you do that part of the quest where you go through a portal to go to an abandoned building?
one egg and no garbage events in 5 minutes is amazing
I had 90 minutes with 2 eggs and ~20 garbage events
Yeah, but 10 minutes now, and just the one event
but I would still prefer not getting the garbage events
We should probably make a spreadsheet for all this
I think she is
Allocation is whom I'm referring to
Gg autocorrect
Allocthon
Omg, I'll stop
Lol, don’t worry about it. At least you have an excuse for typing stupid stuff
@brittle kelp I am, and in addition, there's https://nomanssky.gamepedia.com/Space_Encounter
Neat
when i get to the coordinates, the mission resets and there's nothing around. argh
▶️ If people want, I'm compiling a list of where the new space encounters happen. If you want me to add your info, ping me with: Encounter Name | Star Type | Wealth Level | Economy Type.
I'm also tracking which color void egg (egg color and glow color) give which Class of upgrade. ◀️
how many steps are there in building this ship?
^^
4 or 5
too many
Do they all take a day?!
Most do. 4?
thank you @foggy jacinth
I checked nearby buildings and nothing happened
Oh so the time It takes to make one is relatively equivalent to the quicksilver collection time. Nice
yeah im giving up and waiting for update 😦
It really felt like more than 4 steps
sigh
there are 4 time gates
What's going on @uncut vale
but you have to do the coordinate hunt 7 damn times
It can take over a week legit or several hours bending the fabric of time and space
and one part requires you to use a planetary portal, so I hope you have one handy
My starbirth mission is broken
How so?
we're having a bug where we get to the coordinates and the mission resets back to "find the marked galaxy" but it doesn't lead anywhere
I got to the coordinates on the correct planet, there was nothing there, the marker disappeared then the mission told me to go back to the galaxy map. I do that and no planet is marked and there's no 'current mission' line
Oh. Yup. Broke
I wonder if this all broke in the recent hotfix patch that went out
I got my ship stuff done before that dropped and had no issues
but a bunch of people are popping into this chat with problems with the coordinate hunt
interestingly, i get the same nothing-there bug occasionally when i use planetary charts on watery planets
What does the egg description say
so it might be related
There was a bug in 2.3 where the mission didn't show on the galaxy map. That was fixed in 2.31. But there is also this other one that people are talking bout now.
egg says anomalies and bright colours, but I had already found the right planet
People reporting the current bug should mention they have 2.31 installed (if they do). https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
Mine says powerful anomalies and strange colors
Maybe it was strange I couldnt remember
Not saying your wrong, just stating what kind mine is
You have to have all the glyphs first?
Not for that step
Are the glyphs for a destination?
And I assume starbirth is impossible without finding all glyphs prior?
You use a portal at one point
I tried to activate the portal and it showed I had none of them
Oh great
Umm, maybe? I don't remember the order of the glyphs
But you need most of them for sure
NMS is going through withdrawal. Broken here, fixed there. Itll be okay in a week or two haha
powerful anomalies and strange colors is definitely mega exotic type planet
Fellas, I found the one
cant make out the stats, not sure if it's garbage or not :p
My question is, are we still limited to 6 ships?
Most of the stats are set, I'm moreso referring to the looks lmao
Cockpit's pretty nice
but I saw one with different damage, hyperdrive range, and maneuverability
@wooden kite yes, 6
Mm. Hyperdrive I'm pretty sure is always around 160
Then I might get one and then not care lol
Some ships are angrier than others IG lmao
I have one with 212 damage, and I saw a screenshot with one at 184
I have the order they go in but no glyphs
just jump to starbases until you see a traveler
give them 100 nanites and go to the grave for a glyph
and repeat 16 times
There are two ways to get Glyphs. The first is to find travelers and buy a grave location from them (100 nanites). Go to the grave and extract the glyph. This is often bugged, and graves often don't give a glyph (this is supposed to be / is patched).
The second method is to do the Artemis questline. It starts as "Awakenings" and goes quite a while, and you meet a bunch of different folks along the way. After the quests are complete, when you finish the quest named "16/16/16", every time you warp, you get a new glyph. If really pushed, the Artemis questline can be done in 10-15 hours.
Aw shit get dunked on
The living ship was really aimed at more experienced players who already had their glyphs.
I didn't
the yellow bar by damage says otherwise
I'm shook how dare you
lol
yeah, same exact shield as I have seen on every image
so the shield is always exactly 180.3
but the other numbers vary
good roll on hyperdrive, no idea on damage since I don't know the base on yours, maneuverability goes up to at least 229.7, and at least as low as 214.4
Okay that's it I'm breaking out the good ol' video proof
haha
just get out of your ship and scan it with your visor
it will show the actual base
something is boosting it and hiding the actual base
You broke it
What have I broken
It
OH GOD NO WHAT HAVE I DONE?!
I will fill it up with tasty nodes and organs and what not
And soon they will all be S
man I am sooooo tempted to skip the timegate
only one more 24 hrs after I get this next organ
See? That's nothing
you're right. I've got this
do the Anomalous Numbers Stations do anything?
Besides the random numbers? Not that I know of
I wonder if HG plans to use some of these space encounters for future community missions, and how. like, maybe at one point we could find anomalous stations or derelict freighters with a signal period (as in the case of the freighter) or something not random (like the stations)
How many numbers in them?
Hey guys, I have the awakened egg and the starbirth quest but I can't find a marked system? The egg says "when touched, conjures a vision of a world of powerful anomalies and strange colours" but it's just stuck in the travel to a marked system bit?
hm...have you tried teleporting to a far system and trying to reset the quest?
I've tried teleporting to a few far systems and even a few black holes but still nothing, how do I reset the quest?
hm...usually you should be able to hold down the middle mouse button on it if you're far enough away
is this the first stage of the quest?
Yep first stage
Alright what do i have to do with this weird riddle song thing from the void egg
I don't think I can reset the quest either
I have 2 spare eggs, does anyone know what happens if I discard the awakened egg, will that start it again?
@frail gust Did you check to see if there are any mega-anomalies in that system? A planet with a biome like Doomed Jade, or [redacted] or somethign else strange?
Tbh I can't remember what system I was in when I awakened it, I've bounces around a ton since then

@frail gust Try finding a mega-exotic. They're more common in red/blue/green. Probably y most common in red.
What part are you stuck on?
Also, @foggy jacinth 8:17-8:39 (22 minutes) Vy’keen High Tech (T2) Conflict-Intermittent Star-Yellow (Standard) Wrecked freighter 5 Void egg (White-C) (White-B) (Red/Yellow-B) (White-C) 4
Well it says it needs a specific world than a whole lot of random words and stuff not telling me what world i need to go to
or im just blind
¯_(ツ)_/¯
What does it say?
Yeah
@wanton leaf portal
That's a portal address. The key is in the pinned messages for this channel
ah
How do I guarantee a spawn from one of the living ships?
how do i go about finding a portal again?
Someone send help I'm stuck in a portal
@gaunt kettle wdym
define stuck?
IMO, this is a very poorly explained questline
like inside the interior of it?
@cloud epoch inside a portal id guess
As is literally stuck inside it yeah
@uneven current do you have a base there
console or pc?
pc
experimental branch?
@cursive kernel I've been trying for the last two hours to get one of the AI living ships to spawn to give me the next thing for my egg but it won't
@gaunt kettle are you pulsing in the same system that you got the organ in?
Okay I just got a comm from the egg when I warped to this red system saying "((TEN: THE SPIRAL OF REALITY))"
No why?
Does this mean I'm in the right place?
@gaunt kettle that might be why
@frail gust no
Just part of a portal sequence @frail gust
@uneven current if not on experimental try switching to it. https://steamcommunity.com/app/275850/discussions/0/1754652960101829332/
if on experimental, file a bug report cus that's suspposed to be fixed
Damn I'm screwed it just always says warp to a marked system and then marks no systems
k
@frail gust portal
@uneven current Getting stuck in a portal is a new but known bug. The next patch should have a fix. Until then, try jetpacking through it, or going through the other side, or driving your exocraft into it.
@wanton leaf o 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).
@foggy jacinth A-class egg module in a yellow high tech wealthy conflict: 2 vykeen system
@cloud epoch Thanks. Did you get the egg color and glow color?
Fully upgraded Grafted Eyes (phase beam) isn't nearly as powerful as my fighter's weapsons.
I now have 3 S class upgrades, but it takes me 5-6 shots to kill a pirate.
I can one-shot on my fighter.
Positron exotic gang
Is that you to the left? Tiny!
I think I'd say grey with red glow.
But I"ve not seen a white, so maybe white. LOL
I feel like I am going to spend many hours over the next few days pulse jumping
I need to get so many S class modules
I wish I could just spend nanites on them
@formal furnace Yup. But the next patch should allow upgrades to be 'evolved' up to S with nanites.
I still only have 2 modules so far, since the living ship update dropped on Wednesday, and I work Wednesday-Saturday
so haven't had much time to really play, I got the ship but not much beyond that
I actually got a S-Rank for the Eyelaser even though I don't use it
Gamers
I have made a discovery
If you go to the space anomaly after getting your flesh ship
Like immediately after
And come back out
The quest'll still be active
And if you go to the marked spot
There's another ship
lol nice
That's enough NMS for me today. 👋
you got hit with the same bug I did I think
I hate this shit
free second living ship
I wonder if i fucked it up
@uncut harness so is your second ship better than your first?
||So i ve finished the purge quest, decided to stay in Euclid and i think i might have bugged out my Atlas Path quest, because when i ve enetered last station i can't use Heart of the Sun in the slot. I also cant reset the quest in my quest log. Did i miss my opportunity?||
you can visit any atlas station to use a heart of the sun. I think
thing is i cant find any in galaxy map, talking to Polo doesn't give me cooridantes
PC
yeah I had this issue
I am not sure what fixed it. it's been a while, there is a work around
@gaunt kettle what happened
@cursive kernel still no ship
@gaunt kettle what step are you on
The 4th await contact
@formal furnace Naw, they're identical
pity
I wonder if they are determined by the star system
I got both of mine in different systems
they could be like exotic ships, locked in before you ever get one in a system
(which means you should reload your save when the quest is still active and fuck off to another corner of the galaxy and try again)
@foggy jacinth 9:02-9:19 (17 Minutes) N/A N/A N/A Star-Blue (Indium) Living Metal 1 (S-Hyperdrive!) Derelict Freighter 4 Messenger of the atlas 1 Void Egg (Yellow-B) (White-A) (White-A) (Red-S) 4
wait you got 4 upgrades in 1 7 minutes?
Yeah and it’s the luckiest I’ve been all day
jesus christ
yeah tonight im gonna go to a 3* economy blue star and try there
@formal furnace Yeah, each system gets one ship
@cursive kernel auto is aboyr 15 mins ago and auto is like 28
You can't reset for better stats
derelict freighters, any use for em?
@cursive kernel I don't really know I'm really bad at reading military time and for some reason you can't change that
maybe later
@gaunt kettle how long have you been pulsing
any common tactics for farming living ship upgrades?
Not that I’ve found. I just note them because we’re trying to find patterns of systems and space events
Like an hour or 2 at this point @cursive kernel
@gaunt kettle military time is 0:00 (12AM)-23:59(11:59PM)
Ik
So just subtract 12 if the number is higher than 12
And I’ve found 1) higher tier systems (yellow, green, red, blue) gives more results more often. Systems with no civilization (No data in categories) don’t have trader events (which are terrible useless awe full things)
Zythe there is no hard evidence indicating anything other than just pulse jumping randomly gets them
everyone says you have to be in your living ship to get the upgrades, and I have only seen them in my living ship, so that seems accurate
And using the living ship seems to get more results but that’s just the untested ramblings of the internet
when you got the 4 upgrades, was that in a system that is uninhabited?
Correct (The 3 N/A are for system data)
@gaunt kettle Idk try reloading at this point
@cursive kernel auto save is at 18:13 and manual is 17:58
I think economy improves odds of trader events so bad economies/no economies are better (mostly untested superstition)
@gaunt kettle reload manual save
@brittle kelp I've been trying dead economies and I keep getting pretty much any other event
I did do the time skip, will that fuck it up?
@gaunt kettle no
Nope. I did the time skip
I used king crimson on xbox and I'm fine
I think it’s just either luck or some other factor
Time to warp around a bit then
My theory is that every system has a hidden value showing what events are weighted above others
best way to farm upgrades for the living ships?
Fly around in the ship for awhile
ive been pulse jumping around the system, but every single interaction i get is an npc asking to trade
My theory says a blue, uninhabited system is best but that’s not been confirmed yet
@stone cobalt go to uninhabited systems
Can the AI ship finds you in a completely Uncharted system?
@gaunt kettle the host? Yeah
Alright, here’s an amazing question: what happens when an living ship goes through a black hole?
Nothing
kk
Can't damage technology you don't have
wtf you can learn the atlast launguage now?
Have been able too for a while now
Where on the wiki is that?
They need to do something to really distinguish the living ships in terms of functionality. As it is, they are tons more work and end up less functional than normal ships
If you go on ships and then scroll all the way down to living ships
the lack of an economy scanner on living ships is a really frustrating issue for me
I really rely on that
they should get some kind of cloaking or something to maybe make a difference, so you don't get attacked by pirates
or some other perks beyond just not getting shit broken in black holes
@formal furnace they should let us just put on normal
also I can confirm the last two unoccupied systems I've went to have had atleast 4 encounters in space
Ship upgrades @formal furnace
if they want to do things via quests, yeah we should be able to quest for technology for the living ship to replicate functionality that exists in normal ships
^
I can save up 600 nanites WAY faster than I can find a single goddamned egg for an upgrade
and I can guarantee I get an S class every time
i miss my super efficient warp drive, pulse engine, and launch thrusters that recharge over time :(
I miss almost everything about my minmaxed exotic 😦
stock ship :(
but I want to get this turd fully upgraded to see how it competes, but I have to use it while collecting the ugprades
ew that layout is kind of gross for grouping 4 things together for each tech
theoretically you shouldn't get the crashed freighters much in uninhabited systems either, but I bet they still show up a ton
i just keep warping in one direction until i get an encounter?
yeah
yeah
welcome to the living ship update!
stock up on silver and gold
also you are using your living ship right dragon?
Alright so I got a space event called plasmic accident and I got this thing called a screaming tentacle and the item is classified as a ‘terrifying sample’ I exited my inventory and it says there’s a sub audio something or other and now I’m terrified
haha nice, probably just something you can sell for a lot and some lore
run while you still can
Sub Audible resonatic disturbance
An appalling relic, the haunted remains of some abyssal horror. It has lived at least 260 lifetimes, and will live many more again. Will Stalk the bearer across the galaxy and the next, unless it is sold before the curse can take effect.
^^^^
I have never been so glad to have a market on my freighter
I just got one of those as well, but mine said 40 life =cycles
I have like seven of those things on my freighter I'll let you know what happens
I gon find your freighters derelect huh
Let’s see who dies first
probably nobody
Have you guys encountered the asteroid larvae event yet?
like those animal descriptions that say "attack sentinels"
No
well th is is unexpected
if you find an event that is a something lens that you can attack
you get a bunch of nanites when you blow it up
oh, and 5* sentinel ambush
so enjoy that
When you're pulsing around it'll occasionally say anomaly detected and then when you pop out of it it's one of those giant one-eyed things
thing popped up in my face and I bout shat a brick
if you just keep warping from system to system will you get encounters?
no, you only get them pulse jumping, not warping
You get encounters by pulsing around
so if you are in a system that gives you regular events, stay there
k
can confirm, up to 12 on my current system
find a large system and jump from one end to another
some systems give more events than others, so if you feel you aren't getting shit warp somewhere else and start pulse jumping around there
k
I don't even do that Zythe, I just point out to open space and start my pulse jump
Which is one of the best things about the living ship: I can (and do) have a silver farm. I don’t have a tritium farm
aprox time for good encounters speed?
lol those abyssal horrors are like chain letters
if you are getting one after about 30 seconds, that's a really good rate
I get one roughly every min
30 sec to 2 minutes
forward this to 10 friends if u dont want terrible luck
Lol
some systems I have tried I have managed to burn an entire tank of fuel without getting one
Yup
which is annoying as fuck
Other times you pulse right from one to the next
wtf I found a relic gate that launched me somewhere XD
ahahahaha YES
THOSE ARE AWESOME
I got one that shot me 1.5 million light years away
bout shit myself
Nice
what are the base stats of the living ships compared to exotics and fighters?
OH WOW WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT, ANOTHER CRASHED FREIGHTER
living ships have ~180-210 I think attack, always have the exact same shields (180.3) from 150-165 hyperjump, and somewhere around 210-230 maneuverabiliy
I just got lunch to 902000 light years through a warp gate
From what I've read up on, the Living Ships are designed to focus on attack damage and Jumping.
ok wtf, hostile space station?
the ranges are not hard confirmed, but it should be around there
when I got inside they were friendly, I got in range, and alarm sounded, and about 10 freaking ships came to say hi
what about the exotic and fighters? @formal furnace
The relic space stations?
no it was glowing red, then all of the sudden a shit ton of fighters came out and attacked me.
exotic have more manueverability and shields than living ships, and the same damage and hyperdrive
Huh, never seen that one before
ugh, living ships just barely getting 300 shield strength
the tech is real nice; completely immune to damage
So, my eggs not giving me the final x and y ? of coordinates?
ignores all engine requirements too
yeah, but you can't expand them
so they are perma locked in at 22+21
while you can get a normal ship to 48+21
living ships are not built for combat
the maneuverability and shields suck, damage is alright but not special
No?
living ships are just better explorers
Well cant blame em if they're made of living tissue
7% launch cost with immunity to system damage
an S class fighter has ~350 maneuverability, 55-60% damage bonus, and 15-25% shield bonus
an S class exotic has ~350 manueverability, 35-50% damage bonus, and 55-60% shield bonus
so are the living ones even good?
an S class living has ~200 maneuverability, 35-50% damage bonus and hard locked 13% shield bonus
so...
so exotics can take crazy punishment, and fighters dish out crazy damage
and living ships take less punishment than either, maneuver for shit, and have ok damage
I'm not sure if the wiki's manuverability data on living ship is correct; my hauler has same manuverability to my living ship
hauler maneuverability is also hot garbage
fuuuu i love maneuverability on ships
hauler is ~150 maneuverability
my living has 274 maneuver without upgrades on that yet
Explorer, Fighter, Exotic all have awesome manueverability
that sounds really wrong Zythe, can you use your visor to scan your ship and send a screenshot?
both my hauler and living ship have 210.6 manuv, both at S class
I haven't seen a living ship with over 230 maneuverability
they seem to go 210-230
let me get to a planet
Mine has 229
Living ships vary widely depending on their design.
They seem functionally random in nearly all aspects, with a trend toward certain things.
Almost like real life.
there are limits to the randomness, almost like real life
does the game even randomize manuverability?
current stats in top right
see that yellow bar?
it's boosted
use your visor to look at it
you will see the true base
use visor to see its base
what’s the max stats you think is possible with upgrades on the living ships? @formal furnace
I have no idea david, haven't had a chance to really farm the upgrades
depends what boosts the S classes give
farming takes hours
you will be able to do 6 of each upgrade module, 3 in storage sacs and 3 in organ chamber
i went for almost 2 hours and got 7 modules, no S class
they are adding the ability to upgrade modules with nanites thankfully
i better be able to get more storage on it
here's what I got after a lot of duping
so you only need to farm 6 of each type, and can use nanites for the rest
I would suspect around 300-400ish max maneuverability. Assuming 3 s rank modules
Right
I got 580.7 with 6 of those with 15% manuv
meh
holy fucking shit
For a ship, at least.
For a Freighter, not too bad.
my exotic can crank out better stats
Not by much. 😛
a lot more manuv and the extra shield is real nice
teach me @ivory crown
That's true.
especially with the exotic guppy's small-ass hitbox...
Is that really ludicrous my A class fighter can do 614
614 Jump range?
Yeah
Compared to nearly 3 thousand?
614 with two S-Class hyperdrive upgrades
this is all ive been able to get so far
I meant compared to the 580 number that was given
fighters have absolute 0 bonus to hyperdrive range, so 1.8k is max
what does brain upgrades get you? reduced oxygen usage on liftoff?
Can anyone help with my egg quest? The last coordinates aren't popping up...
yeah you can cut launch cost down to 7%
Wow.
@proven ridge Look around
@ivory crown is in experimental i’m pretty sure
I'm not tho
Yee @cloud epoch
there’s no way you got 6 of each and all S in normal
I just dupe the S class upgrades
hmmm, guess open slots in ship arent as important as they used to be then
For what? Nothing here but a storm Crystal, silver deposit, and a knowledge Stone that taught me 'calm'
Is there an easier damned way to find these coordinates for Living egg?
you get one, you now have infinite supply of them
that's how duping works
having an infinite supply means I get to "reroll" for better stat on the module pretty easily
duping tho...
Any good dupes? Or is that a "no talk about" thing here
Is there an easier way to find coordinates for the living ship stuff?
everyone is free to play the game the way they want; even if it means cheating
I just wanted to push living ships to their max potential
Ok I know some places prefer you not is why I asked. So far only one I've found worth while, but a pain in my ass, is the nexus station dupe
the freighter refiner inventory freaking out when you trade
Not tried that one
is it it’s max potential or do you think you could squeeze out more?
and are exotics still the best?
living ships are great replacement for your explorers
if you're not seeking combat, they're probably the best
but. i don’t use explorer -_-
damn
combat is pretty easy currently with all the extreme weapons
but I doubt HG will leave it at that like that
