nms-spoilers

[brave crow]

and living ship

::(

[icy citrus]

I don't think you will, as the quest is still there and giving coordinates

[brave crow]

mhm

right ill just keep going

lets just hope this works

[shrewd hinge]

I'm hoping for you too!

[icy citrus]

🤞

[brave crow]

god i hate co orda

i was on +100, pulse jumped and now im on -167

i hate figuring these out

[shrewd hinge]

Do your N/S first, then do east west

get just on the edge of the atmosphere so you're going 1k/2k and it goes faster than trying to pulse.

[mighty rampart]

heavy spoilers incoming for a weird space encounter

[inland patio]

@brave crow on PS are there a bunch of comm stations littered about? If so & they have a grave they will work, at least it did on PC

[brave crow]

no com balls for me

[shrewd hinge]

Oooh neat

[brave crow]

is it cuz i have multiplayer off and my internet off?

[shrewd hinge]

Are you on the right planet?

[brave crow]

yes

i think

its giving me co ords to go to

so

[uncut harness]

Man, I need to start shooting more things in space.

[shrewd hinge]

Must be, didn't know having it all off disabled the comballs

[brave crow]

idk

this is really boring and annoying

why cant there just be markers

[shrewd hinge]

because, coordinates are fun.

[brave crow]

they aint if your worried about your game being broken

[shrewd hinge]

yeah

Hope it's not though.

[mighty rampart]

||the purple "extreme sub-audible resonance received" was really spooky tbh||

[shrewd hinge]

I want one of those. I'm going to go running around this morning in some deserted systems and see what I can't find.

[mighty rampart]

yeah I was looking for void eggs

[shrewd hinge]

Trade hails are absolutely annoying.

There's not really anything good

Pulsing around in a wealthy system was annoying, every few seconds it was a hail

Trade my dirt!

[mighty rampart]

only decent early game and you need one of those relics

[shrewd hinge]

I pewpewed him,

[formal furnace]

the random traders should have some rare stuff at really good prices

just to make it somewhat neat when you get the trader

as is they have usually worse stock than you can get with people in starbases

[icy citrus]

I agree, but I'm not really sure what that would be

The same relics, but cheaper?

More of?

[formal furnace]

not sure

[shrewd hinge]

If they're desperate enough to hail you out of a jump, it better be something nice

[formal furnace]

but it should be worth buying/selling with the trader

[brave crow]

im starting to get incredibly bored trying to find these dumb co ords

[icy citrus]

Yeah, but what in NMS fulfills that?

[brave crow]

i wish there were markers or something

to make this 1000x easier

[shrewd hinge]

Top tier item like a stasis device?

[icy citrus]

At this point, I'm not sure what they could offer me that is more enticing than what they already have, except the price

[shrewd hinge]

on chance of like, 1 out of 50

[icy citrus]

That would be good for some, but I'm filthy rich

[shrewd hinge]

Or something. Cakes

You need cakes

[icy citrus]

There we go!

[shrewd hinge]

lol

[icy citrus]

Holy shit, why didn't I think of that

[formal furnace]

nipnip buds

[icy citrus]

Brb

[formal furnace]

they could sell nipnip buds

[shrewd hinge]

consumables would be nice

[formal furnace]

nailedit

[shrewd hinge]

Rare blueprint for a building item you can only get through trade encounters, rare consumables, QS exchanges,

[brave crow]

ok cool got one co ords

[shrewd hinge]

one down, 2 to go

[brave crow]

problem: other one is far off because yeah

[formal furnace]

oooh yeah. blueprints that come from abandoned factories

[brave crow]

i meant one half of the first co ord

[shrewd hinge]

oh lol

Yeah, line your ship up in the direction you want to go and then head for it.

That's how I did them all.

[brave crow]

i got the second half of the first co ord, now i gotta go ages in another direction hoping it doesnt mess up the other

[shrewd hinge]

I lined it up before summoning it

[formal furnace]

Exodus: because I know this will piss you off to no end when you get there, the last 3 coordinates are only kind of close to what yolu are looking for

[shrewd hinge]

Faced it in the direction I needed to go.

[brave crow]

i get this is meant to be a challenge but seriously this is just annoying

[formal furnace]

you will have to land and use your visor to find the grave

[brave crow]

yeah ik

[formal furnace]

ok

[brave crow]

the others were not exact co ords either

[formal furnace]

these are... less exact

[brave crow]

its fine, its just getting to the area

it sucks

a-

dw

ill find em

right now im just annoyed at 2 things
the fact my game might be broken due to a stupid dupe
and co ords and annoying as hell

[shrewd hinge]

What was funny, my first 2 set of coordinate missions, I had abandoned buildings and a trading post popping up 500u away and I couldn't find the damn monolith that was .2 away.

[brave crow]

wait hold on

[shrewd hinge]

Just don't die again

[brave crow]

if its the same planet everyones co ords should be the same

[coarse goblet]

stats are also ok

[shrewd hinge]

I don't know if that's entirely the case.

Nice ship

[brave crow]

Hold on

[formal furnace]

that's almost a perfect roll on hyperdrive

[brave crow]

hold hold hold on

[soft scroll]

i had issues finding my first grave site, i walked all the way around my ship, only for it to be directly behind it in a little crater, i didn't even see the marker for the grave at all

[shrewd hinge]

The first one didn't show a grave marker

[formal furnace]

165 is theoretical maximum

[brave crow]

i need to find monoliths or graves

[formal furnace]

graves

[shrewd hinge]

Graves

[brave crow]

monoliths can be found from nav data maps

[shrewd hinge]

I was talking about the first two timegate coordinates

[brave crow]

oh

[formal furnace]

at the point in the ques you are at, it's graves

[shrewd hinge]

Not those, Exodus

[brave crow]

hold on i just had an idea

what if a traveller is on the SS in this galaxy?

[soft scroll]

SS?

[brave crow]

space station

[shrewd hinge]

Nope, has to be the graves

[brave crow]

oh

not even if i found a traveller?

[shrewd hinge]

You're ||downloading souls||

[soft scroll]

can't they ask the traveller for a grave location?

[brave crow]

yeah

[shrewd hinge]

No, it needs to be the mission coordinates.

[brave crow]

im thinking that

flips table

[shrewd hinge]

On that specific planet.

[brave crow]

why hello games, why

[shrewd hinge]

Because fun puzzle.

[soft scroll]

yeah but they could strike lucky and get the marker to hit one on that planet

[brave crow]

tbh this isnt fun anymore

just tidious

[shrewd hinge]

He's already got enough with the accidentally duped items

You're So close

[brave crow]

im too close

[formal furnace]

someone at HG decided that spending an hour slowly traversing a planet over and over was super fun

[shrewd hinge]

Just turn up the music and zone out

[brave crow]

i dont have music on rn

[soft scroll]

there was a comm beacon on one of the graves, when i was flying around, made it much easier to directly locate it since i could guess thats where it would be based on the co-ords

[brave crow]

but ill put some on then

[shrewd hinge]

It's the only time you ahve to do it for a ship.

[formal furnace]

so far

[brave crow]

lets hope its a good living ship, the one i want

[shrewd hinge]

When I was playing there were com balls littered everywhere and none of them were on gravesites.

[brave crow]

oh wait yeah i remember the name i was gonna give it

[soft scroll]

if you don't want it you can try and save scum to get the one you want

[brave crow]

"the PITA"

[formal furnace]

next update: "We have reworked quests so they all give coordinates instead of quest markers. We anticipate this will greatly increase the enjoyment of our users as they do quests in between random time gates. All content we produce will last 10 times as long due to these enhancements"

[soft scroll]

there were fuck tons of comm balls at the portal i came out of, and then there were several scattered around the planet, luckily one was on a grave i had to go to

[brave crow]

lmfao

[formal furnace]

"also, we doubled the frequency of derelict freighters"

[brave crow]

if they did that i wouldnt do any missions

like at all

[soft scroll]

i seriously fucking hate derelict freighters

i want to be able to salvage those fucks

[brave crow]

after i get a living ship im gonna fly around and just go and destroy a freighter

salvaging a living ship should give you some organs

"shredded heart" "shredded lung" etc

[worthy venture]

is the in game timer tied to our systems clock or some other server like the atomic clock?

[formal furnace]

system clock, but only when offline

if you are online I am sure it looks online for the time

[soft scroll]

thats probably why you can bypass the timers

[worthy venture]

so that would work to screw with the system clock if the game is offline?

yes I am tired of the countdown... LOL

[soft scroll]

what platform are you on?

[worthy venture]

pc

[soft scroll]

all you need to do is switch Steam to offline mode

right click on your clock, then on the side bar on the right, go to "additional time changes" or something, then again, then you should be able to finally be able to get the option to change your clock time

then all you need to do is change the actual date 1-2 days ahead, activate NMS, save once you're sure your timer is over, quite NMS, change your time back and then switch back online

then you can get the next part and do it all again

[worthy venture]

LOL I wouldn't have thought of the steam.

many thanks

[soft scroll]

yeah you don't need to turn your entire internet off, only steam

[brave crow]

im going towards the first co ords

*co ord

im hoping it doesnt mess up the second half

because this is getting really finicy

[shrewd hinge]

I logged in and the starbirth mission just popped up again...

[brave crow]

ok so im there

nearby these co ords

just gotta wait for a storm to blow over

im calmer now btw, im mega focusing

[shrewd hinge]

The other two are easier.

[brave crow]

ight, thanks

[uncut harness]

where should i get living water?

[shrewd hinge]

The icon will actually pop up when you get like within 200u

Do what the mission says

[brave crow]

im within 200u i think

or might be

[shrewd hinge]

The first one doesn't pop

I was staring right at it through some trees and didn't see it til it reflected as the sun changed.

[worthy venture]

second one didnt pop for me till I was right on top of it

[brave crow]

thats why im waiting for the storm to blow over

[icy citrus]

And cloud the light of the love that I fouuundddd

[brave crow]

right so

its night, im near it, and no icon in visor

what icon am i looking for?

[little schooner]

an unknow building

[brave crow]

for graves?

[little schooner]

what now

[brave crow]

im at the end of the starbirth quest

and im looking for the graves

but idk what icon a grave is in the visor

[icy citrus]

[soft scroll]

basically the symbol of the atlas, but it'll be visible on the grounds

[icy citrus]

Different color

[little schooner]

ya its the atlas

[brave crow]

so yellow atlas icon

ight i thought so

[soft scroll]

it'll be a pure white, similar to the building icons while looking in the visor

[brave crow]

i think its night#

[soft scroll]

in person it'll be white with a yellow outline

[brave crow]

its dark

should i wait untill day?

[soft scroll]

nah you can use your visor to look for its marker if you're close enough

[brave crow]

oh im awhile away on the second half of co ords

ah, right

[little schooner]

what is a finned planet

[icy citrus]

Exotic type

[soft scroll]

a glitched reality world

you can pick up a thing there that you can place in your base either as a trophy or decoration

[little schooner]

what about a capped planet

[soft scroll]

thats the mushroom type IIRC

that they used for Beyond's marketing

[amber knot]

capped is that type of scifi mushroom, not the real fungus mushroom

with displays inside eggs 😄

[soft scroll]

you've got glass piece worlds, strange orb things, spine things, bubble worlds etc

[little schooner]

same i have the mushroom things just never seen that name befor

[amber knot]

it confused me at first that the planets wiht literal mushrooms are called "toxic" and variations of that word. and the Calcishroom planets are called "mushroom"

[icy citrus]

They each have 3 names, and can also sometimes be Redacted

[amber knot]

true

[little schooner]

whos bright idea was it to only have north and south on the compas and not east and west

[amber knot]

Sean's

be careful,if you ask Sean to add directions to the compass, we willget three easts, and he will call them "orthogonal", "hyperbolic" and "left"

[little schooner]

lol ill just get a mod that adds it

[amber knot]

🙂

[icy citrus]

I mean, they are easy enough to figure with N And S

Just put one to your left or right

[amber knot]

I just walk/fly with S or N half visible. And watch the numbers change. then I turn roughly 90 degrees a few times until the numbers change in the "direction" I want to.

and sometimes you want one set to increase faster (because the target number is larger) than the other (smaller) value. That can be done by 45 degree turns.

[brave crow]

I SEE WHITE ATLAS

[amber knot]

I never know which way I'm going, but the numbers change, and that's what I want. 😉

[brave crow]

FINALLY

[amber knot]

Hurray!

[icy citrus]

Well done

Now you need to find only 5 more coordinates in the next step

[little schooner]

i miss the old days of being able to fly with A and D

[soft scroll]

god yeah, i hate not being able to fly sideways

[icy citrus]

He didn't bite

[soft scroll]

ED made me spoiled in that regard

[nocturne zephyr]

at first, i was getting frustrated with the coordinates using the ship, but looked it up and realized coordinates can be seen in the analysis visor when on foot

made things easier

[soft scroll]

yeah you use the ship for the large distances, then use your visor to fine tune

[amber knot]

right

[brave crow]

OH

IT SPLIT THE STACK

[amber knot]

It's maybe not the most exciting game play, but after I figured it out, it entertained me for a few hours

[brave crow]

one of the chambers is charging

the other isnt

i guess im fine?

[little schooner]

i wish you could see the cords in the exo crafts FFS

[brave crow]

@icy citrus

one is filling, the other isnt

think im fine?

[icy citrus]

Yeah

[soft scroll]

@brave crow have you gotten multiple parts for each section of the ship?

[brave crow]

yeah in a glitch

[icy citrus]

It would suck if one filled and then the other lol

[brave crow]

but thank god

it seems im fine

should i delete the other now?

[soft scroll]

you can toss the others, you won't need them again after you finish the quest

you only need one part each

[brave crow]

yeah il

ik

ill sell the rest

but like, should i yeet the other soul thing?

now one is filling?

[amber knot]

O_O

[icy citrus]

I wouldn't delete it until you get the ship

[brave crow]

okie

[amber knot]

don't yeet poor souls. what have they done to you? ;-p

[brave crow]

idk but YEET

jk

not yet

[soft scroll]

you can yeet the empty one, the one that has a charge is needed

[brave crow]

idk if i should

gleam said to wait

since its technicly bugged

[icy citrus]

But what if the game cries and thinks it was the one for the mission? It is going smoothly for you, I'd leave it the same

[brave crow]

mhm

right now the other isnt that far away

the second co ord is far, but the first isnt

[icy citrus]

But - learn from the weirdness- make manual saves

[brave crow]

seems like its smooth sailing rn

YES

i will

my last manual save was so long ago that i think it was before i even beat the story

idk

nah

its newer

i thinki saved a week ago

around that

[icy citrus]

I am in the habit of making a manual save when I load in

Then at worst, I lose the session progress

[brave crow]

makes sense

imagine patting your living ship on the head and it purring and moving slightly

add that fuction

that would be adorable

[uncut harness]

N O

[icy citrus]

Please yes

[uncut harness]

https://tenor.com/view/gross-vomit-sick-sickening-jim-carrey-gif-7731496

[little schooner]

what if they could breed

[icy citrus]

Lol

[little schooner]

babby ships

[uncut harness]

I hate you for thinking out loud.

[icy citrus]

😭

[uncut harness]

😔

[little schooner]

or do you think they would sub divide

[icy citrus]

That would be gross

Let's go with that one

[uncut harness]

😩

I hate this conversation.

[uncut harness]

when a mommy ship and a daddy ship get together...

yes ty gleam

||i have been collecting you guys' ship pictures||

[little schooner]

how do you check to see if your ship is male or female

asking for a friend

[uncut harness]

tentacle

[mighty rampart]

does it have 1 or 3 thrusters

3 is male, female is 1

[real sapphire]

@uncut harness compiling them into 16 pics? 😛

[uncut harness]

[icy citrus]

What is 2?

[uncut harness]

7

[real sapphire]

wow, another anomalous space object

[little schooner]

ya there wose than pokenmon in tall grass

[real sapphire]

its a friggin giant neuron here

[azure prism]

Has to be an easier way to get the glyphs

[little schooner]

na

just have to find them in the space station

[icy citrus]

Bribe travellers, do the main quest, or hope to find graves randomly

[uncut harness]

How many timewalls are there in egg quest

[icy citrus]

4

[mighty rampart]

@real sapphire 'reportSeed'

[real sapphire]

[mighty rampart]

its the neural process of someone being angry their planet sucks

[keen remnant]

@azure prism there is the Artemis/Apollo/type -null- questline that will give you one each time you warp, instead of having to find travelers on space stations.

[azure prism]

So just wrap and it will show up

[keen remnant]

If you’re in that portion of the quest, yes.

[azure prism]

I'm in raise standing part

[coarse goblet]

do you need the glyphes for the egg quest or for something else?

[azure prism]

Egg

I've done everything else.

[coarse goblet]

had the same problem..

[uncut harness]

so I have to wait at least 3 more days wtf

[brave crow]

SECOND GRAVE DISCOVERED

[icy citrus]

[brave crow]

:d

:D

[azure prism]

😭

[uncut harness]

Will it mess mess anything up if I break the timewalls then switch it back when I'm done?

[coarse goblet]

I am able to warp to the egg quest system regularly.. but I am on PC

[icy citrus]

It shouldn't @uncut harness

[brave crow]

NEVERMIND

it was a glyph

glyph grave

oh

it got charged anyways

hold on

mission says 66%, item itself says 22%

*££%

*33%

[icy citrus]

😬

[brave crow]

uhh

ima keep going

[icy citrus]

No turning back now

[brave crow]

yeah

im sure its gonna be fine

[icy citrus]

[brave crow]

yknow, be positive!

and now i gotta go for ages across the planet

back into the -

instead of the +

[icy citrus]

Weee

You can guesstimate - get a bearing and go into low orbit

[keen remnant]

Or high orbit if it’s far and pulse jump bit by bit.

[brave crow]

it should be around the portal

thats where im gonna head

and go from there

[brave crow]

now thats cool

if i get one like that, ill probably name it "Hammerhead"

[icy citrus]

I haven't seen one I didn't like

Just degrees of how much

[brave crow]

it looks like a hammerhead shark to me

[mighty rampart]

@icy citrus are you save scumming it?

[real sapphire]

@icy citrus holy crap, that's a beaut

[crystal field]

I have that style. I love mine

[mighty rampart]

or this is just your second one

[wanton leaf]

Woooo i got my Meat Ship

[icy citrus]

Yeah, I have a save - I'm liking looking at the varieties - not taking any

[real sapphire]

btw, just asking, if i want another bioship, i need to go through the same quest again?

[icy citrus]

No

Egg, contact, hatch it

10k nanites

[mighty rampart]

just the final part of you discovering the ship, and then paying 10k nanites

should just be 1k imo

[icy citrus]

Hell no

[real sapphire]

ah

[icy citrus]

Make us want it

[mighty rampart]

or just 0

[real sapphire]

how about 30K

[mighty rampart]

already paid 3200QS

[icy citrus]

Cool

[amber knot]

how many living ships can we have, they take the same slots as other ships, right?

[icy citrus]

Finally something to spend my nanites on

[mighty rampart]

yes

so 6

[amber knot]

ok

[candid vortex]

After all this, who wants to buy normal ships again?

[brave crow]

me

[icy citrus]

I will

[brave crow]

i still will

im gonna scrap some of my ships tho

[icy citrus]

Same

[real sapphire]

i still will get normal ships

[uncut harness]

"We need more reasons to earn QuickSilver."
Implements new ship type and give reason for earning QuickSilver.
"No, that's too much."

[icy citrus]

I'll have at least 2 living ships, maybe 3

[real sapphire]

Narwhale type living ship there

[brave crow]

57 mil in scrap on a crashed s class i got, im never gonna be able to repair it and its just sitting thre

[real sapphire]

i may get second living ship, but not sure which ship to scrap...

all my other ships have their purpose.

tho, the next one could be my squid exotic ship

[icy citrus]

I'm keeping that, to make fun of, and a fighter for sure

Maybe the little gold birdy one also

[real sapphire]

but idk, i keeping my main fighter, main ship, cargo transporter, and supply vessel

[brave crow]

now thats what i want

thats incredibler

*incredible

[icy citrus]

They are all slick

And gross

[candid vortex]

Love that color

[icy citrus]

I really like them

[amber knot]

do the colours stay as they are? I had the impression the colour changes quite a bit in the light

I like the ones with Mohawk hairstyles

[icy citrus]

The atmosphere changes the look more drastically than other ships - but they have a stable color yes

[brave crow]

idea

for a new update

ship cosmetics

air fresheners for the cockpit heh
armour for the outside
spoilers for the back
etc

[soft scroll]

i hate when a LS doesn't have side panels, it makes it feel pretty bare, plus having just dangling tentacles on the side is annoying aswell

[brave crow]

imagine having a gek head air freshener

[icy citrus]

🤢

[brave crow]

all ship cosmetics costing quicksilver

stil, i want stuff for the cockpit hehehehe

[icy citrus]

Bobbleheads are coming

[brave crow]

wait rlly?

[soft scroll]

and ship trails

[brave crow]

epic#

[icy citrus]

Aye

[brave crow]

ships already have trails tho

[soft scroll]

different coloured ones

[brave crow]

ah l

[icy citrus]

Custom, yeah

[soft scroll]

like for the backpacks

[brave crow]

cockpit cosmetics hehehehhehehehhehehehehehe

[soft scroll]

atleast a bunch of lights or bobble heads won't cost actual money cough ED cough

[brave crow]

i want mercury bobble head

cockpit

heehhehehehhehe

anyways

time to fly around the planet

listening to megalo strike back

[zenith bough]

sorry for asking 😂 the coordinate is keep moving 😂 what should i search for the living ship first contact quest 😂

[icy citrus]

First couple are Plaques

[brave crow]

first co ords down on the third grave

third is the last grave right?

[icy citrus]

Just warped in my living ship, got an upgrade damaged with the message a blackhole would give 😦

[brave crow]

oof

seems living ships are buggy

[icy citrus]

Needs 3 sac venom and 20 living slime for repairs

Lol

[brave crow]

singular

third grave is the last right?

[icy citrus]

Supposed to be, yes

[zenith bough]

i am in the sec stage i think? my target i dont know is what but keep changing the coordinate

[amber knot]

if the coordinates change, you need to search in that general area for a plaque or monolith

if the coords change drastically (before the decimal point), you're on the wrong side of the planet

then check whether you mixed up +/-

[tepid iris]

cant I start my own quicksilver mission

if I don't want to join someone else 😛

[amber knot]

yes you can do it alone

[tepid iris]

how? theres just the join thing

[amber knot]

might be difficult if it involves fihting or building, but possible

did someone else initiate it?

[tepid iris]

y

[amber knot]

ah okay

guess you gotta wait till they leave then 😕

[tepid iris]

meh

it's also bugged, can't even join his lol

[amber knot]

yeah must be buggy, I can't join others either, and they can't join me,

and sometimes I end up in others systems when I start as if I had joined them, but I don't see them

[real sapphire]

seriously, what are derelict freighter use for? just eye candy or there is something to it

[soft scroll]

right now just junk

probably as filler so you don't always find a good encounter and get a good reward out of it

similar to what the Rubble of the first spawm, Hyperspace network and anamolous number stations are for aswell

[real sapphire]

ah i see

tho i thought they may have plan for those, just not now

[spice gorge]

When you grow a new living ship, after the first one you had, when presented your options are Compare, Reject Model, Leave ---- or something like the same. What happens if you Reject Model? Does it generate another?

[soft scroll]

honestly it feels kind of stupid to include them if you can't do anything with them

[real sapphire]

if they just add it and not using it, its a waste

[spice gorge]

@foggy jacinth ^^^^

[real sapphire]

yo @spice gorge been awhile

[spice gorge]

Hey hey

[soft scroll]

i think when rejecting, it might point you towards a different location towards another ship? i don't really know since i've never rejected

[spice gorge]

Hmm

[real sapphire]

i would never reject something i gave life to it 😦

[spice gorge]

I've not encountered a derelict fregihter. Are they alone or do they warp in with the cluster of other freighters occasionally, @real sapphire ?

[soft scroll]

its a space encounteer, so alon

[spice gorge]

ah

[real sapphire]

WTF

[spice gorge]

Have not seen yet.

[real sapphire]

a black hole just appeared!

[spice gorge]

Can you land in it?

[real sapphire]

as an anomalous encounter

[icy citrus]

No to blake

[soft scroll]

no, its hitbox is a little fucked

[real sapphire]

well here goes nothing

[spice gorge]

hmm

Maybe they will expand on that in the future

[soft scroll]

and we can't land in space yet

i hope they let us salvage them like you see in other sci-fi stuff

what do hadal cores look like on the visor?

[real sapphire]

iirc its a gold diamond with one line

[soft scroll]

i can check what happens when you reject a living ship in a few hours, since i'm using creative, so i don't have to suffer whatever consequences it gives me @spice gorge, unless someone is able to tell you sooner

[icy citrus]

Alluring Specimen

[spice gorge]

@soft scroll Im about to try it -- I archived save files all around the whole new living ship situation -- so can adjust any choice. 🙂

[tepid iris]

damn

all the ones I'm seeing so far are armoured clams

[coarse goblet]

hey.. dont call her clamp

[tepid iris]

ah

it are three stripes 😛

[wanton leaf]

Can i buy tech for these meat ships somewhere?

Economy scanner etc

[coarse goblet]

you have to find it as far as i know

[tepid iris]

hadal cores too rare 😛

[coarse goblet]

just fly around and you will find an egg destroy it and get a random tech upgrade

[wanton leaf]

ohhh ok

[icy citrus]

It isn't new tech though, just upgrades for existing tech

No economy scanner

[tepid iris]

hello pls

i cant go deeper

[ivory crown]

yeah, stuff spawns in unreachable places

happens with a lot of bones

[shrewd hinge]

Happens a lot with salvageable scrap too

[icy citrus]

I found a workaround

[icy citrus]

I don't dig that stuff up

Works well

Big red ball over there is a liar, don't listen

[ivory crown]

it's our creator, but that doesn't mean you should worship it or even listen to it

[coarse goblet]

ball=bad

[tepid iris]

I'm close to giving up this mission lol

[ivory crown]

what mission did you take lmao

[icy citrus]

That isn't even the thing you want

[tepid iris]

half hour looking into hadal cores and not a single one ofund

[icy citrus]

Change location on planet

[jovial stag]

@unborn geode you're looking for a Plaque so unless that's in the tree then your screwed, unless you can mine the tree

[unborn geode]

Yup

It's in the tree

[jovial stag]

oops

can you not mine it?

[unborn geode]

Idk why it spawned there and nope I can't mine it

[icy citrus]

Mega, probably

[unborn geode]

I mined the ground around it

[icy citrus]

Blackhole reset should work

[unborn geode]

So just go through a black hole and comeback?

[icy citrus]

Go through, and you should have the option in the log to reset that step

[unborn geode]

Thanks, I'll try that

[icy citrus]

Same thing the main missions do, once you are very far away they let you reset

If not, no worse off

[unborn geode]

But it's so dumb how it spawned there lol

[icy citrus]

Yes, megas do that a bunch

Easy fix would be letting us mine those

[tepid iris]

meh time waste

I'm quitting

[unborn geode]

Wait hold on, I went to Euclid via base portal and it didn't reset

[icy citrus]

Doesn't matter - euclid is the correct galaxy

Got closer

The blackhole trick is for steps of missions, not the overall mission itself

So, likely returning to a different galaxy would satisfy the distance requirement

[tepid iris]

wait

are these the ones I need?

[icy citrus]

If it even works

Yes those

Pull on them, hope for no surprise

[tepid iris]

oh god

the sound they make

the exocraft station things now work across the entire system?

[brave crow]

ok now i took a break, back to the last grave

[icy citrus]

Oh yeah!, I forgot to test that

[tepid iris]

these? 😛

[icy citrus]

That is what the note said

Should have fixed the glitch with them not working inside a base radius also

So nice

[brave crow]

i think i still have awhile

a VERY long way one way

but dead on first co ord

second co ord is ages off

[spice gorge]

If you reject the model you get your void egg back, your 10,000 nanites back, and the new ship flies sadly away. (Living Ship, growing a new one)

FYI

[shrewd hinge]

Well now that I know that happens I can't deny any ship. Though good to know you get the egg back.

[icy citrus]

Did you try and follow it?

Or does it just go byeeeee

[brave crow]

ahahahhaha

YES

final grave

[shrewd hinge]

I got a picture of the one that comes and hails you if you've got an egg in your inventory (it was in my freighter btw, they linked all inventories it seems as long as they're reachable)

[brave crow]

uhh

ok so

its now 33% like the actual soul thing

and its telling me to go to a traveller glitch site

a

ITS SO FAR AWAY

AAAAAAA

[noble horizon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JinKQlZehsw

[brave crow]

welp

another 2 graves i guess?

also all the graves i found have just dont glyphs

exept the first

so its 33%

i guess another 2 graves?

[icy citrus]

How many graves have you done?

That did the right thing

[uncut harness]

can someone tell me a bit about raising a ship egg and what it entails

[icy citrus]

Basically, You are the Wizard and the ship is Dorothy and her friends

It needs a heart, a brain and a shell and life

[uncut harness]

when you go to buy oxygen then you accidently sell 5k oxygen

[icy citrus]

Those need to be gathered/made and then matured

And then you have a bouncing baby ship

Portals are involved, bring glyphs

[uncut harness]

ok

[proven ridge]

It involves chasing coordinates across planets with no actually defined marker and waiting days on end

[icy citrus]

That is the fun part, besides the waiting

[wanton leaf]

How many nanites does a second meat ship cost?

[mighty rampart]

10k

[icy citrus]

Meat ship

Lol

[wanton leaf]

Meat ship yeah

[icy citrus]

Meat ship no

[wanton leaf]

:(

meat ship > living ship

[icy citrus]

So many bad names are going to be forthcoming

[wanton leaf]

hahaha

[mighty rampart]

ship of flesh

[icy citrus]

Fleshy

[quiet horizon]

Wait so the icky ships cost nanites the second time around?

Nice

[mighty rampart]

yeah lmao

[proven ridge]

Hooo boy I've been having a straight blast flying/running around in circles on my 2nd leg of the mission, just pressing 'scan' and hoping this thing actually pops up

[icy citrus]

Right?

[proven ridge]

Most fun I've had since my last teeth cleaning

[icy citrus]

Weeeeee

Ewwww

Lobster

Shrimp?

[proven ridge]

I'd like to meet the masochist who told Sean this was fun

[icy citrus]

It wasn't Hex, swear

[shrewd hinge]

That's a pretty color

[royal rapids]

@icy citrus its epic

:0

[icy citrus]

I have looked at a whole bunch now

I like them all

[unborn geode]

Wow 21 hour wait for Neural Stem to mature

Anyway to speed this up?

[brave crow]

frick

i think im stuck

[plucky cargo]

Set your clock forward or edit the JSON

[brave crow]

the graves are only "extract glyph" graves and the mission keeps saying its 66% when its 33% in the actual chamber and wont go up

[icy citrus]

Time to try deleting any extra things

[proven ridge]

Tbh if you can edit your save file just do that, the entire mission line is buggy and stupid

[brave crow]

want me to try to delete the other chamber?

[icy citrus]

Might as well, you aren't advancing

[brave crow]

yeah im not

right its gone

ima hop in and out my ship

[icy citrus]

Maybe reload as well, or even restart

[brave crow]

restart?

[icy citrus]

The game

Exit, start again

[brave crow]

ahh

im refreshing rn

this might fix it as ive been to 4 graves

1 was soul, other 3 was glyph

it seemed

chamber sill 33%

[icy citrus]

Report as well, the duplication - all of it

[brave crow]

mhm

i dont have proof tho

as i can get screenshots offline

*cant

[icy citrus]

You won't be the only one

[brave crow]

right

where do i report it?

[icy citrus]

https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[brave crow]

im gonna try heading to the next thing

if its a glyph ill restart the game

[azure prism]

I've gotten all glyphs in Artemis quest and going thru the portal for it. Can I now do the egg quest

[icy citrus]

Yeah

[wanton leaf]

How do you hatch a second egg?

Just fly around / warp around a bit again?

Oh nvm

lol

[icy citrus]

You have to sit on this one for 78 hours

No exiting or it restarts the timer

[brave crow]

@icy citrus should i put "i cant play the game anymore" or "its hard to play with this issue present"?

[icy citrus]

Hard to play

[brave crow]

ight#

[icy citrus]

Not a game breaker, just a mission breaker

A terrible one to be sure

[brave crow]

of course, progress/mission blocker

At username, I should put my PSN right?

[icy citrus]

Yeah

[brave crow]

uhh

should i put "something else" in the what was i doing?

it doesnt really give the "doing a mission" option

oh crud if files are needed this aint gonna work

[icy citrus]

Just say they aren't

[brave crow]

submitted

[icy citrus]

[brave crow]

ima go to the next grave and see if it works now

[icy citrus]

I'm going to eat food

👋

[brave crow]

ight

luckily its fairly close

[timid harness]

nvm issue not fixed bruh

[shrewd hinge]

oh noes, I was hoping it wasn't broken D:

[covert wing]

simply cannot wait to do the daily coordinates mission!!!!!

[timid harness]

god this is frustrating

[covert wing]

what is

[timid harness]

the coords for the void egg

[languid crescent]

so when i get the egg, i must pulse drive for 10 seconds

right?

[timid harness]

for a bit of a distance bit yeah

[shrewd hinge]

pulse for however long it takes.

[languid crescent]

oh ok thanks guys!

[covert wing]

Yeah the coordinate stuff is a neat idea but its execution is...

uuuh

it's not particularly fun

[timid harness]

is there anything i should be looking for in the coords

[covert wing]

Looking for?

[ivory crown]

need coordinates on HUD without visor

[shrewd hinge]

If I didn't have to go into slo-mo visor mode every time I needed to confirm on foot, it wouldn't have been so maddening

[covert wing]

You'll be looking for a monolith

[shrewd hinge]

little monolith, a minilith if you will

[brave crow]

right

[covert wing]

minimonolith

[brave crow]

soul chamber is 66%
glitch seems to have worn off
its telling me to go to co ords

am i getting the ship now?

its not telling me to go to a grave

its telling me its humming co ords

[proven knoll]

Doing the starbirth quest and I’ve searched the unstable coordinates for hours I’m pretty sure the games glitched and not spawned the monolith can I restart it without having to buy another egg?

[languid crescent]

ive gone through the first cinematic, and im looking for the correct planet. it says it has to have powerful anomalies and strange colors, which i assume is talking about the bubble planet in the system it took me to. i landed on the planet, but nothing is happening. what do i do

[brave crow]

UM

THE ENTIRE MISSION JUST RESTARTED

[covert wing]

If it's not giving you a set of coordinates to go to in the bottom right corner, it's not the right planet

[brave crow]

I GOT ANOTHER SOUL CHAMBER

IM CONFUSED

[languid crescent]

ok

[shrewd hinge]

you have to fill it up. I told you it probably broke when you died.

[brave crow]

should i delete my current one with 66% then?

[shrewd hinge]

No

[brave crow]

ok so i have 2 again

[shrewd hinge]

Just do the bug reports and try to do what Gleam suggested you do the last time it fixed for a moment.

[gaunt kettle]

YOU HAVE 2?

[brave crow]

i reported it

[shrewd hinge]

He died, it's broken, don't yell.

[brave crow]

so i should delete the new one?

[shrewd hinge]

no, that'll be 10million times worse.

[brave crow]

ok

keep the new one

fill up the new one

[shrewd hinge]

or if that's what he said you do.

[brave crow]

he said delete the duped one, this isnt duped

this is the quest restarting

[shrewd hinge]

Then keep doing the quest

[brave crow]

ok

ima end up finding like 10 graves by the end of this

[shrewd hinge]

I don't think it's going to complete though. They will probably have to repair you.

[brave crow]

im gonna restart the game, gleam said to try that if the other thing didnt work

also what do you mean "repair me"

[shrewd hinge]

Your save is broken, I don't know if HG can repair yours or not because you're PS4. But with PC, we can send our broken saves in and get them fixed.

[proven ridge]

Uuuugh. Entering the 3rd hour of wandering this shitty planets surface and still no plaque in sight

[brave crow]

oh cool

broken sabe

*save

right ima go do other things for n ow

[languid crescent]

if i close the game in the middle of my mission, is it safe?

[fossil magnet]

It's looking like if I'm not getting a star system marked with the starbirth quest, then I got a broken quest and have to get my save fixed?

(pc)

[proven ridge]

HOLUP - "Most star systems visited during this mission, are either uncharted, or abandoned. All of them are Korvax, except for the last one which is Gek."

It's that what's glitching my game?! This thing took me to a Vykeen planet.

[delicate moat]

so im confused on the last part of this quest

im not sure where to go

[shrewd hinge]

Check the pinned links @delicate moat

I got carried away with the void eggs https://imgur.com/a/MvPiJC7 I don't think I can give any of these up. I only kept my little guppy.

[delicate moat]

oh so ill have to use a teleport thing?
i dont remember how to find those at all

[shrewd hinge]

Go to a cartographer and get the alien structure (bottom one) planetary thing.

find monolith, answer correctly, then activate again and give it what it wants to get a portal.

[delicate moat]

i can find a cartographer at trading posts right?

[shrewd hinge]

On space stations.

[delicate moat]

Ah

This is what I get for only wandering star systems looking at planets
I don't know most of what I should XD

[shrewd hinge]

It's all about figuring it out along the way ^-^

[delicate moat]

Ah so I keep doing these maps till I find a monolith that will let me teleport?
The first I found brought me to a ruin

[shrewd hinge]

Yeah, you have to find a monolith. I don't think they do portals though I'm just sure I did one.

[delicate moat]

I'll keep grabbing maps then

The monolith I found won't let me talk to it after giving what it wanted so I'll just keep lookin

[shrewd hinge]

It didn't trigger a portal location?

[timid harness]

just to confirm, the monolith icon is the same as one for a knowledge stone right?

[shrewd hinge]

Or did you answer it wrong? Just reload your save if you answered wrong

No

[crisp fern]

For some reason monoliths occasionally bug and don't present the option to search for portals

[delicate moat]

Well it told me to touch the monolith to restore the timeline so I did
Then I got something for atlas

[shrewd hinge]

If it didn't, reload the save and answer again.

Talk to it twice.

[delicate moat]

I'll have to go to another system since my save is overwritten already

[timid harness]

do the coords actually get more precise as you get closer or do you have to just keep flying

[languid crescent]

the game gave me cords without decimals. i went there, and game refuses to give me exact cords still

[timid harness]

same

[crisp fern]

go on-foot & look through analysis visor

[languid crescent]

i have been. nothing new appears. just knowledge stones

[jovial stag]

@brittle current does the Egg say Void Egg or something else?

if something else then its no good to your mate

[brittle current]

I believe it sais activated now

Hes not on rn

It was void egg when i gave it to him

Wtf

[timid harness]

whats the icon for a monolith?

[shrewd fog]

Is there a way to restart the starbirth quest? Mines bugged out on the first part and a planet isn’t marked.

[shrewd hinge]

It'll be an unknown building until you get to it.

[shrewd fog]

The system itself isn’t marked *

[shrewd hinge]

Was the egg given to you?

[shrewd fog]

Yes.

[shrewd hinge]

Apparently that's been a problem with eggs given to people.

[shrewd fog]

Well shit. Can I destroy the activated egg and get a new one to restart it and see if it works?

[shrewd hinge]

I think that's what they've been doing. Because you can't receive it already activated or other. It can only say 'void egg'

[languid crescent]

what am i supposed to look for with these cords? what kind of structure?

[shrewd hinge]

There's a tutorial in pinned links

That should help you out.

[languid crescent]

ok thanks!

[molten cargo]

@shrewd fog I'm having the same problem someone gave me my egg as well. Let me know if destorying and getting another works for you.

[shrewd fog]

@molten cargo nope didn’t kill the quest

[delicate moat]

Found a portal time to figure this glyph out

[molten cargo]

@shrewd fog Dang. Guess we have to wait until patch day to see if it gets fixed then

[frail gust]

I have the same issue as you guys

I also tried deleting the egg

Lmao

Not sure what to do now as the quest is still there and un-completable and I have no egg

Well I have 2 eggs but they won't awaken

[molten cargo]

I tried finding the planet the egg described, to see if I could kind of progress still, but I've been having no luck.

[frail gust]

@shrewd fog did you try buying a new egg and trying to awaken that one? I'm on like 3000 quicksilver so if not I can try that later and let you know if it works lol

[delicate moat]

Oh God I have to remember how to do portals now

Lol

[frail gust]

The annoying thing is my step son was given an egg and his worked fine :'(

[shrewd fog]

@frail gust try it, I think it’s absolutely busted on my save. I just gave my buddy one and his is working fine?

[molten cargo]

Yeah, my friend was given one and it works fine too

[gaunt kettle]

Mines worked fine mostly

[molten cargo]

Apparently he moved too far away from the system where his quest started. But when he went back, cuz he remembered where it was, it showed him the system

Which is where my problem lies, cuz I think mine might've ended up starting when I was doing QS dailies. . . .

[frail gust]

Yeah I have literally no idea where mine started

[molten cargo]

Yeah.

I can't set the navigation to "Current Mission" either, so that's problem.

[frail gust]

I've been through like 20 black holes and 2 portals since then

[unkempt ore]

void egg not for sale at qucksilver companion

[frail gust]

@unkempt ore turn off vpn

[shrewd fog]

Mine started in my main base system.

[uncut harness]

Jesus Christ is there anyone getting the living ships legitimately

Small amount of people.

Someone on reddit made a manual save and rolled it 200 times to get the ship they want... I’d feel guilty if I did that. Also I think it ruins gameplay

[gaunt kettle]

Can i warp drive to the egg system?

[frail gust]

I was doing it legit but someone randomly gave me an egg sooo yanno why not

[uncut harness]

There’s a lot of game time to be had by searching for the ships

I hope it tells HG that the wait was just too long.

[shrewd fog]

I mean I’m not going to grind QS daily forever, nor am I going to wait 24hr intervals for an artificial time gate lol.

[uncut harness]

I absolutely appreciate that it's only the first ship that is timegated though.

[brittle current]

5x 24 hrs... no thanks

[uncut harness]

Yeah it's just wild/

Thought it was four times... is it actually five?

[frail gust]

I wouldn't mind the timegate at all if I could just do the bloody quest lmao

[brittle current]

I think its 4

[uncut harness]

Oh thank god

I’m waiting for the fourth time gate to end now

[molten cargo]

@shrewd fog Head back to your main base system then, see if it shows up for you.

and I don't mind the time gate, I just wanna do the quest tbh.

[frail gust]

^

[brittle current]

Anyone on ps4 wanna donate an egg to me to help me out with the dead one? 😔

[molten cargo]

Besides, the gate is only for your first time through.

[uncut harness]

Maybe they could rework it so you can get all organs at one time and then just wait

[molten cargo]

After you get a ship, you can instantly hatch another egg.

[uncut harness]

Probably would be a lot better. Or not have the gates at all. So many ways to change it

[frail gust]

I'm tempted to just start a new save file but I got the game 4 days ago and already clocked 33 hours

[gaunt kettle]

@brittle current bruh i can

[molten cargo]

I've had the same since September > 3> I have about 180 hours and so many units it'll kill me to start over now

[brittle current]

Id appreciate it so much man @gaunt kettle

[molten cargo]

Not to mention, I found some cool ships!

[brittle current]

This is my psn

[gaunt kettle]

One sec gotta stop the time skip hack im doing

[frail gust]

I only found one cool ship but I have the coolest freighter I've seen in any pics

[brittle current]

@gaunt kettle no hurry dm me whenever youre ready

[frail gust]

How long do you think it will take for them to patch the starbirth bugs? Jw lol

[willow dome]

hey did anyone find organic ship device schematics?

what bugs?

[frail gust]

A ton of people have no quest marker and just get stuck on "warp to the marked system"

And it won't let you reset

[willow dome]

oh, i amlucky i guess

[frail gust]

Nice for you 😁

[royal yoke]

Ok so I’m at the purge mission...

Should I stay or should I go 😂

[mighty rampart]

go

its almost over

[royal yoke]

Obviously I should make the green galaxy type (lush) whenever I do decide to reset... but if I do so now will I miss out on anything?

[unborn geode]

What part of the JSON file do I edit to skip 21 hours?

[mighty rampart]

and you get all 16 glyphs

[molten cargo]

Might be later this week? I dunno

[mighty rampart]

@royal yoke nope

[royal yoke]

I already have all 16

Ok cool

And I can return to elucid whenever I want?

[mighty rampart]

you can return back to your bases and last visited stations in euclid, yes

with the teleporter

[royal yoke]

Oh sick and I can let’s say build a new base and keep exploring in Euclid?

[mighty rampart]

yes

though I dont remember if all of your tech in the general inventory gets damaged or not

it does when going to the centre manually

[royal yoke]

That’s awesome 👏 they must of added that because I remember it not being like that back in the day

[mighty rampart]

yes it wasnt

they removed all those restrictions now

[royal yoke]

Wait so I can choose not to go to the last portal and travel to center manually?

[mighty rampart]

yeah sure if you want to

going to the center manually just sends you to the next galaxy - hilbert

[royal yoke]

Oh ok so really the purge mission is just a shortcut to the center (and restart in new galaxy)

Ohhhh

[frail gust]

Can I ask for advice? I discarded the egg before I did 16 / 16 quest because the starbirth quest bugged, but I did a manual save first, should I go back to the manual save and continue from there or continue from purge and just hope they patch a way to fix losing your egg?

[mighty rampart]

purge mission is a shortcut to the 4 systems of your choice

otherwise going to eissentam means going to the centre 9 more times

[royal yoke]

So doing the purge allows you to jump to galaxy 10 if you choose lush green

[mighty rampart]

@frail gust dunno if and when they'll patch that issue, so best to go back to the manual save

[frail gust]

Thought so lol looks like I have to do all that again :p I had hoped it would delete starbirth or allow me to awaken another egg

Thanks for the advice

[royal yoke]

Ok wait so should I complete the egg stuff BEFORE I finish and jump to galaxy 10 via the purge mission ?

[mighty rampart]

better to do it after

you can go back to euclid anyway when you need to

[royal yoke]

Well I’m on the step after you wait a whole day in game

(For the egg)

[foggy jacinth]

Just had a space void egg that was grey and pink egg, white glow. Two colors on the egg?

[royal yoke]

@mighty rampart why would it be better to complete the egg stuff after I jump to diff galaxy?

[mighty rampart]

Nothing in particular, I just feel it's better to complete one mission before doing the other

[royal yoke]

Well I have them both opened currently..

[mighty rampart]

If you want to do the egg mission now that's fine

[royal yoke]

Oh ok

So that bug the other guy referred to isn’t going to effect me?

[mighty rampart]

Oh yeah

There was another guy who was in the middle of the Artemis quest, who had the starbirth mission bug out

I had to edit their save file to fix it

Yeah now I really think you should finish the story

Just in case there's a correlation

[royal yoke]

Ah ok

So finish the egg thing in galaxy 10?

[grand heart]

how good are lving ships actually?

[mighty rampart]

Nah you can go back to Euclid (and you have to anyway for a particular part)

[royal yoke]

Ah ok

[mighty rampart]

Make a base in galaxy 10 first, and then do it

Just for precaution sake

[royal yoke]

So I already got a living ship from an exotic mod I added... so when I do the egg thing will I need to replace my correct ship with the actual one they give me?

[mighty rampart]

It acts like a crashed ship

[royal yoke]

Oh sick

So I can just leave it

[mighty rampart]

If you already have 6 ships, summon the one you want to swap with

Or better yet go and salvage that 6th ship

So you get something back in return

[royal yoke]

Also the upgrades for the living ship, are those obtained doing the egg missions?

[mighty rampart]

And just claim the ship as usual

They're obtained by finding void eggs as a space encounter, and destroying the egg

[crisp fern]

is the Euclid galaxy a euclidean shape
