What is a save game manager supposed to do?

I would like to automate backups.

A script would probably be simpler.

Honestly, I'm afraid of multiplayer.

Why are you afraid of multiplayer?
@mortal hamlet
Can multiplayer corrupts my saves? Can other players inject corrupted codes in my save or my inventory?

#

Are there any ways to prevent that from happening, assuming it can happen.

#

whoa that's a big script, https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/815?tab=posts

mortal hamlet Nov 17, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

I suppose I don't know enough to tell you for sure that it CAN'T happen; however I can say that I've never seen it happen - I've never even heard any theories about how it might be possible. The most people are gonna do, is when you go to the Anomaly they are gonna toss random shit in your inventory. This is due to a duping method (I believe) so sometimes you may get random items that you can either return, or delete.

The only time I've ever heard of a save being corrupted was via Update 3.10 this past November 10th; and I'm unsure how solid that information was. Outside of that, I've never heard any mention of it, and the one time I did it was due to an update, not multiplayer.

I wouldn't worry too much about Multiplayer; more about what mods you download. Nothing will corrupt your save, however if you get a mod to increase inventory size from 10,000 to 20,000 and then you remove the mod or it breaks via Update; obviously all your stack sizes go back down to 10,000 and you lose half your items. Things like this will happen if you use those types of mods. Again; as for multiplayer though I wouldn't be too worried.

Yeah I noticed that script was pretty huge - That one from Weasel I've used before, I'd say use that one if you had a choice. You could also manually backup saves by simply dragging the NMS Folder from %AppData% onto your desktop every so often; although I suppose you want it to be automated.

dawn veldt Nov 17, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

I'll probably make my own batch file which initiates a backup when I launch the ".bat" file.

#

I'm too lazy to read the batch file, because I don't know all the commands and I would prefer to understand them first. 😅

thanks

What mod, the BetterShipTeleportModuleRange? I haven't had it break yet, via Halloween or 3.10 lol. Was it just needing to be recompiled? Or was it full on breaking with value/propertyname changes? lol @hushed bronze

Its not even posted anymore, but I used to call it the Super Ship Teleporter, and I would also increase the build cost of the device

Its just a recompile usually but its still annoying to me lol

Increasing the build cost is a pretty good idea; to keep it balanced

@mortal hamlet So I installed it and read the instructions but i cant seem to find exactly how to open a mod file? It seem there are already files inside of the script folder?

mortal hamlet Nov 17, 2020, 10:40 PM

#

@summer pulsar Inside of ModScriptCollections? Yes, those are files you can edit and do what you'd like with.

Throw the .pak inside of the ModScript folder, and run BUILDMOD.bat, answer yes or no to a couple questions (If you are unpacking it, press no to rebuild mod) and then look for the unpacked mod under UNPACKED_DECOMPILED_PAKS

summer pulsar Nov 17, 2020, 10:41 PM

#

Thank you i will try that

mortal hamlet Nov 17, 2020, 10:42 PM

no worries, let me know if you're having any trouble

summer pulsar Nov 17, 2020, 10:44 PM

so i did that and this is what it unpacked im not sure if you will know any thing about this specific mod but they might be similar when unpacked?

#

oh

#

wait

#

i cant put images

#

ill just put the folder and file namse

#

What i was trying to do is lower the boost of the mech so its not just infinite and make it turn faster and walk faster

#

maybe also take off the quicker scans and less fuel consumption

#

So its just affecting the movement

mortal hamlet Nov 17, 2020, 10:55 PM

#

Okay so when you unpack it, it should give you something like that.

The EXMLKFILES_PAK section will contain the DeCompiled EXML's that were used. While the EXTRACTED_PAK section will contain the MBIN's; the Lua; and anything else that the PAK was compiled with. If there were any custom models or anything else in the MODSCRIPTS or FilesToInclude folder, it'll be in the EXTRACTED_PAK section.

You don't have to worry about EITHER of those folders, if you want to tweak the mod and not add in new things. This Mod Creator build their Mod using Lua. So if you just open up that Lua file you will see all of the adjusted values.

You can then adjust those values to your liking, save the Lua file; put it back into the ModScripts folder and run the BuildMod.bat file.

summer pulsar Nov 17, 2020, 10:57 PM

#

So open the lua, adjust it, and then put it back in mod script

mortal hamlet Nov 17, 2020, 10:58 PM

#

Yup, pretty much. Although I don't see a listing in here for MechSpeed. This is probably because the mech gets very hard to control when you turn up the speed

summer pulsar Nov 17, 2020, 10:58 PM

#

and not to sound stupid but what do you open the lua with?😅

#

and i dont want to make it tooo fast just some. Is it if you change it at all it gets crazy or is it if you make it like 5 times speed or something crazy

mortal hamlet Nov 17, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

Any text editor you'd like. You can use the regular Windows notepad although lots of people seem to use Notepad++. I personally use VSCode, but I've been using that for quite some time, so it was just my go-to.

hushed bronze Nov 17, 2020, 11:01 PM

#

n++ has a load of nice features specific to coding, compared to basic-ass notepad

mortal hamlet Nov 17, 2020, 11:02 PM

#

Definitely use N++ over Notepad; yeah.

hushed bronze Nov 17, 2020, 11:02 PM

#

Also its easily installed and easily replaces anything notepad might be used for without drawback

summer pulsar Nov 17, 2020, 11:06 PM

#

so if i wanted to add mech speed increase how would i go about doing this?

mortal hamlet Nov 17, 2020, 11:10 PM

#

Not entirely sure, I haven't done enough testing with it. You can play around with it. I'm going to list out all of the default original speeds, the Lua that file gave you is incorrect, it claims they are all 18 for top speed and 15 for underwater. (They are comments for reference, but still they are incorrect) That may have been true at one point, but not currently. Last time I checked - these were the speeds. For compactness I'm listing a
Name, TopSpeedForward , UnderwaterEngineMaxSpeed

BIKE, 18, 10
MED_BUGGY, 16, 8
TRUCK, 12, 8
WHEELEDBIKE, 19, 8
HOVERCRAFT, 15, 15
SUBMARINE, 15, 15
MECH, 2, 2

                    {
                        ["SPECIAL_KEY_WORDS"] = {"Name","MECH"},
                        ["VALUE_CHANGE_TABLE"]     =
                        {
                            {"TopSpeedForward", "18"}, -- Original Value = 2
                            {"UnderwaterEngineMaxSpeed", "14"}, -- Original Value = 2
                        }

                    },

If you want to add the Mech to the SpeedIncrease-LessFuel-FastScan-Vehicles60.lua file, the way I would recommend going about it would be going to line 87; pressing enter after the comma and copy and pasting what I listed above.

Although I just tried it, and the formatting is awfully weird because of how discord seems to format spaces. So here's a Lua that has it added in the exact same space I talked about. You do need to adjust the values, 18 is far to high.

do you recommend any MODS@mortal hamlet

mortal hamlet Nov 17, 2020, 11:36 PM

I think that depends on what type of modding you want to do to your game. Just Quality of Life stuff? Graphics overhauls? Mods that make the game easier? Mods that make the game harder?

It for sure depends;
However I think most people can benefit from a mod like InstantTextDisplay, ShipHover, ExocraftBetterCam, possibly a base-building mod. Again this depends on what you are willing to Mod though.

#

Some of those ones I've mentioned are outdated on Nexus - although I've updated them for my own use, if you are interested in them.

Quality of Life stuff

ShipHover InstantTextDisplay

summer pulsar Nov 17, 2020, 11:39 PM

#

Um looking back at the lua i cant find the turn radius value? 😕 I used ctrl+f to search for "turn" and only jetpack turn rate came up?

#

Is that the same as normal turn rate?

mortal hamlet Nov 17, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

@umbral sinew https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1677
That is Instant Text Display; when you talk to NPC's it speeds up how quickly the chat appears so you can just left click to skip it all much quicker than normal. Very useful when feeding Chronus for example.

ShipHover; Allows you to hover on land with your StarShip, this is outdated on Nexus but I'll send you my updated version.

@summer pulsar Are you 100% sure the mod affects regular turn radius?

it says better turn radius

round sinew Nov 17, 2020, 11:44 PM

just want to add to what Tyler said about installing mods. when downloading mods, it's common for modders to mention which files of the game does the mod actually modify. keeping that in mind, two mods that do modifications to the same file might conflict, or one of them doesn't show up in game because due to mod load order, it's being overwritten by the other mod.

umbral sinew Nov 17, 2020, 11:45 PM

ok ty

mortal hamlet Nov 17, 2020, 11:49 PM

@umbral sinew There are lots of QualityOfLife Mods on Nexus - I've made a few, I'm sure there are plenty others outside of mine. I've updated this mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1753

It decreases the time to 5minutes between BaseComputerMissions, by default it's like 5 hours. Quite nice for new players to get through those archive quests.

One that people also seem to like, and I like for QoL is Better range for accessing the starship. Kind of cheaty I guess; but here it is if it's your thing. https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1769

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1779
This is one I just made yesterday for QuickSilver. That's the ingame currency for cosmetics and decorations. By default it's 250 per day. 1 mission per day, 250 per mission. You need over 125k Quicksilver to get everything, which would take you over 16 months. This makes it 1000 per mission; so 1000 per day pulling it down to just over 4 months. I'm planning on making more versions as well. Totally kinda cheaty - but it's quicksilver, and all cosmetic/decoration items, so more QoL than anything else IMO.

This next one is another common mod - I updated this because it broke during 3.10 and the Mod Creator didn't update it. I haven't had any issues with it, but others have reported severe issues regarding the swapping of Freighter colors - although iirc that is a vanilla bug.
This mod allows you to have multiple freighters per system; and like I said it supposedly causes issues but I haven't had any. I recommend it, I think it's very valuable to have your freighter at all times, but I'm sure others recommend against using it for its perceived problems.

better turn radius?
Extract Lua from better turn radius mod, assuming it has one and copy and paste over Lua details pertaining to turn radius. If all it adds is turn radius then you can just plop both Lua's into the ModScripts folder and build-mod and it'll combine them for ya into a useable .pak.

if it doesn't have a lua, then we have to make one. Let me know if it doesn't.

Hey @vale iron, how familiar are you with voxel positions and do you know if theres a way to translate them into "front end" coordinates?
Trying to figure out if a mod that converts all mission markers into planetary coordinate positions is possible at all or not.

Here's the conversion of galactic address to voxel coordinates:

I'm not sure exactly how those planetary coordinates are calculated, if they're tied to some other value somewhere

#

I would think the first step in figuring it out would be to find 0,0 on a planet and put a save beacon or base computer down, then check those coordinates in the save file

slate veldt Nov 21, 2020, 2:12 AM

#

mucho gusto
ill give that a shot here shortly. thx again

vale iron Nov 21, 2020, 2:13 AM

#

Make sure you're not placing it within a base or the coordinates will be base computer relative, instead of planet center relative

slate veldt Nov 21, 2020, 2:34 AM

#

Ok, saved at (0,0) local, checking the position now.
I did manage to find PlanetPositions, so I'm curious to see if that is at all relevant to my current system.
It appears to correspond pretty closely to my 0,0 point for the x and y (the z is obviously not lined up).
Do you know if the Z PlanetPosition voxel is an average between (0,0) and (90,180)?

#

i guess i can just test this but wasnt sure if it was already known or not

vale iron Nov 21, 2020, 3:15 AM

#

That's interesting to know that the x/y seem to lineup. I was worried they would be in system coordinates, not planetary. The z I would guess is going to be the distance from the core of the planet.

slate veldt Nov 21, 2020, 3:20 AM

#

oh sorry, i did a poor job explaining that.
The saved position at (+0, +0) translated almost exactly to the planet position x and y (-194995, -61995) vs (-195000, -62000).
Im heading to the 90,180 now to see if it gives me the opposing z. I expect it would be as you mentioned, the core of the planet.

apologies if this isn't the right channel, i tried asking in nms-help but not much of a response, does anyone know if there's a save game editor for PC that can fix/reset a broken mission? been trying to get a mission back for the past few days and nothing has worked so far.

slate veldt Nov 21, 2020, 3:27 AM

Whats the mission again? I think I might remember seeing you in help the other day

desert willow Nov 21, 2020, 3:28 AM

oh hey roarinflame, yeah that was me. it was the Atlas Path mission that disappeared, not allowing me to complete the heart of the sun thing

slate veldt Nov 21, 2020, 3:29 AM

#

Right right! Did you end up going back to the station and seeing if it would recontinue the mission?

desert willow Nov 21, 2020, 3:29 AM

yep, tried doing in SP too

Can you screenshot the Atlas station youre seeing?

@bkay201#1943 oh yeah dude I understand. I wish I had time. I can tell you that there is always a diff list of files on the mod discord that you can look at and see what files changed. You can then go to my nexus pages and look at the attached read me doc and see a list of all the files my mods use. Then you will know what is still good. I haven’t even looked at the diff list yet lol.

round sinew Nov 21, 2020, 11:54 AM

#

yeah, doing that now

#

found <#nms-modding message>, this should be the diff for 3.10, comparing to the list of files you mod

#

if i didn't miss anything, there's two files in _MOD_DUD_UnderwaterColors_v2611 that have been changed

vale iron Nov 21, 2020, 12:16 PM

Typically Lo2k and Wbertro publish diff lists right when the updates drop. They are for slightly different purposes though

does anyone have any good suggestions for reducing the time it takes to load into the game to test mod changes

#

i want to play around with the jetpack values, but it takes me about 2min to completely load into the game, and i was hoping their might be a way to reduce that to save some time

steel crypt Nov 22, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

AFAIK you can’t reduce it by much. Some milliseconds can be reduced by tweaking the debug global but it almost unnoticeable .

gusty zenith Nov 22, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

i assume if i reduce my graphics settings that might reduce the time a bit

steel crypt Nov 22, 2020, 6:07 PM

#

I don’t know if it will have much of an effect. The only way I know for sure is more PC. If you have a bunch of ram you can make a ram drive for NMS or if you are loading from a HD like me, you could use a memory card or something that is faster to load it.

@frozen herald @steel crypt I looked at it a little bit but couldn't figure out how to make it work. If someone has an old mod that used to do this, I could RE it.

#

No dice. I think it must be hardcoded. I couldn't find any locations mentioned for the icon DDS files

steel crypt Nov 23, 2020, 6:55 AM

#

Okay, so could you make a DDS that is extra wide and contains....North and West to use for the North icon, and another really wide DDS for South and East to use for the South icon? Do you have any idea what I'm trying to say LoL?

#

probably not because it would not wrap right.

what file is it that has them?

vale iron Nov 23, 2020, 8:02 AM

@steel crypt I was thinking that as well, but yeah, probably wouldn't line up quite right. It's only mentioned in METADATA\UI\HUD\SCANNERICONS.MBIN and just to give it a name, no positioning data. @obsidian tree

you can always use a save editor to manage your inventories outside of the game

but there are no mods that add an automatic sorting mechanism

know how that's gonna affect my current bases? i have 2 close enough to one another that I fear the range extensions may make them clash. also, how does this affect uploading bases?

hushed bronze Nov 25, 2020, 1:19 AM

#

BBB is a bit more intense on removing basebuilding restrictions, GBase has some other features like lengthened powerlines.

Neither one adds unknown parts so they should both provide uploadable bases

frozen herald Nov 25, 2020, 1:19 AM

#

so boundaries dont affect uploadbility?

#

this game needs an altimeter

hushed bronze Nov 25, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

I can't gaurantee that, but I dont think so. But even if it does, mods are removable 🙂

#

Boundaries are just a limit on you, they are not baked into the base data

frozen herald Nov 25, 2020, 1:21 AM

#

ok, so here's what's stopping me from installing this mod

hushed bronze Nov 25, 2020, 1:21 AM

#

Its possible that uploaded bases with parts beyond the limit wont show up for visitors, but you would have to test for that

frozen herald Nov 25, 2020, 1:22 AM

#

i have no idea how far apart these two bases are, but i'm worried increasing them both to 1000u will make them clash, as they are already placed.

how would i know if im having this problem, and would that affect the uploadability of the base i really dont want affected that way? here, maybe a screenshot will help

#

this picture was taken standing next to the base computer for the base on the ground. it has extractors as far away as 800u. the base you can see in your picture, i'm not sure how far it goes, but when i first put the computer down, i immediately put a walkway in one direction for 1000u, though i ended up not using all of that. is it still set out to 1000u? if so, i think i'd be okay installing the mod

📎 unknown.png

#

but i know i'm more than 1000u from that base computer... it takes 24 seconds to hit the water after jumping off that base

#

i know it's so high up the base on the ground was able to use the same em hotspot

vale iron Nov 25, 2020, 2:28 AM

#

You can have to bases completely overlap, 1u from each other, and they still work fine.

#

The only noticeable effect is that if you are within the boundaries of more than one base, you get an option on the right showing what base you are building in, which you can change with middle mouse button. @frozen herald

Are there any mods doing a rework of the GUI?
Specifically getting a complete view of your inventory, instead of this ported eight items at a time, out of 100.
We have HUGE monitors, but only eight items to see, i.e. selecting items for the refiner.

#

and what's with all the different keyboard keys?
Why is (rightclick) not always return/close window, in every popup? (either be it TAB, ESC or right click) Make up your mind 🙂

#

Great game 🙂 I love it to a fault. But these ported GUI's, are a pain as windows gamer

#

The Apple Remote has four buttons, including Volume controls. Think about it 🙂

@vale iron thanks. I found the camera shake thing, i needed to change the "explosionpainsh" values for the pulse spitter.
I also looked through the proceduraltechnology table, but i did not found something that helps me. Maybe you have an idea?
My problem is that sometimes upgrades don't show stats, but a variable like this: "upgrade_0_stat_rare_desc".
I wanted to look if theres somewhere a typo that i just need to change to get stats again.

FYI I got the giant ship icon as well, and I wasn't using Instant Actions, it looks like this problem can be caused by more mods. Even with just Vanilla Plus enabled I have this problem, and most combinations of UI mods.

Good job @frozen herald . Did you need help adding the enhanced range on the ship teleport?

your mod works fine with the increased range mod

Ok, wasn't sure if it was an increase to the base range or to the tech module. The latter would have conflicted

so far, i've modded your alien gtech to only have those 3 items, the exocraft speed increase mod for a 2x, since the slowest you could get already compiled was considerably faster than i wanted, and i'm still playing with the derelict freighter speed increase to find something that's not as soupy as default but still gives the atmostphere. right now, i'm at halfway between derelict speed and planet speed...we'll see how it goes

@vale iron @frozen herald If that 0.01 refers to min ship speed then it is not 0 so that the ship can’t go in reverse. (If that is the case, this looks like work from my ship mod). Just like the auto braking on ships, if set too low, you can make the ship go in incredible speeds backwards.

#

0.01 effectively makes the ship able to complete stop/hover. It doesn’t actually creep slowly forward. Much higher than that and it will creep. Lower and you can reverse.

is there a mod out there that lets you salvage/deconstruct the default ship parts? would be handy for scrappers like me

brave needle does anyone have a modded star wars ship they could get me?

you don't really mod ships, you mod the game. nobody can really get you a ship, the whole point of the game is to get [and do things on] your own

hushed bronze Dec 4, 2020, 12:08 AM

#

@vocal zodiac I guess that could be technicallty possible, but no, it would actually be useless since those modules are worthless and they can be freely moved since several updates ago

#

The modder would have to also manually decide their value in order for them to be worth anything

#

As for reclaiming the slots for cargo use, the ships' default capabaility to move parts includes the tech section, so you can just move them into tech and get your full 48-slot box

vocal zodiac Dec 4, 2020, 12:12 AM

#

i mean, i just wanna remove the photon cannon from my ship. and also i wanna pop the existing ship parts for scrap

#

it'd be fun

hushed bronze Dec 4, 2020, 12:17 AM

#

Yea I think NMS should require minimum 1 weapon if it has to, rather than hard stick the photon cannon specifically

#

that way they can still foolproof against people disarming themselves but not trap us with the photon peashooter

#

That said, and upgraded one with ship based damage buffs is still pretty devastating, as dangerous as anyone needs it to be in NMS

vocal zodiac Dec 4, 2020, 12:22 AM

#

tru tru

#

i just think they should give that choice

#

like ok maybe give a warning like "you're about to dismantle a core component, you sure you wanna do that?"

#

or like, "if you dismantle the photon cannon your ship may be unarmed and unable to defend itself"

#

MAINDOOR doesn't exist in basebuildingtable

vale iron Dec 4, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

That's the entity file name. DOOR.SCENE is the scene file. I would have to check for the building item name

frozen herald Dec 4, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

so if W_DOOR is the wood door, M_DOOR is the metal door and C_DOOR is the concrete door, what is WALLDOOR? It doesn't have a BASIC prefix

vale iron Dec 4, 2020, 5:51 AM

BUILDDOOR is the automatic door in the base building table

broken forum hi the culprit is SHOPINTRO mod

Not only this one, I never even had this mod, the problem is any mod that modifies the GUIGLOBALS now has the wrong value for the ship compass image scale (or is missing the value, its not clear to me).

#

Actually does anyone know specifically what value was missing or wrong to cause the giant ship icon bug? I have been trying without success to make a merged patch that fixes it, as a mod I use has yet to be updated...

steel crypt Dec 4, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

It would need to be done with a compiler that is updated/works with that file, or hex edited. It's not a problem of something being "missing" but rather the location of serialized data has changed. You can't fix that with an outdated compiler unless it is simply a value switched with another value and no padding changed (doubt it)

the fact the game keep marker "alive" for already taken deposit or knowledge pillar or hidden cache is so annoying x(

hushed bronze Dec 5, 2020, 12:20 PM

There's no way for a mod to identify whether a deposit has been mined or not

hello , on wiki about start installing mods i can read on step 2 and 3 :

2-Delete the DISABLEMODS.TXT file (or rename it to a random name, e.g. _DISABLEMODS.TXT).
3-Create a folder named MODS.

#

did i need to do step 3 in the same location as step 2 ?

dawn haven Dec 6, 2020, 12:24 PM

Yes. That folder should be made in the same location where that disablemods.txt is locating

round sinew Dec 6, 2020, 12:44 PM

#

@tacit linden also, if you're not using a mod manager to check for conflicts, make sure to read the mod's readme to know which game files does the mod actually modify. if you use 2 mods that want to modify the same game file, it's probably best to merge them into one.

#

*.lua contains the changes for a mod, and can be used by AMUMSS

Are you able to use mods in an existing vanilla save without breaking it?

vocal zodiac Dec 7, 2020, 1:21 PM

#

yes, but to be safe make sure you have backups and save at a space station especially if it changes universe gen

#

best practice is just to be cautious when working with existing saves

gleaming star Dec 7, 2020, 1:22 PM

#

I've only just started looking into it but feel a bit daunted by that - yeah of course

for sure, modding is kinda frightening esp on like longtime saves

#

sad though cause some looked really pretty or useful

vocal zodiac Dec 7, 2020, 1:25 PM

i mean, modding is a pretty simple affair, what sorts of mods are you looking at?

gleaming star Dec 7, 2020, 1:25 PM

#

Knowing me I'd mess it up anyway x.x well I was looking at ones that enhance the whole random terrain generation?

#

And perhaps the ones that have to do with bases. I also am on mobile so not sure if I missed a list of QOL mods

#

Mostly looking for practical ones that don't break the gameplay loop at all

#

Or graphics related

vocal zodiac Dec 7, 2020, 1:26 PM

#

yeah ideally you'll want to backup and save on a space station, then start the game with the mod loaded and make sure everything works

#

if it doesn't, it's not compat and you can just paste your backup over your save

gleaming star Dec 7, 2020, 1:28 PM

#

Is there a guide or instructions you can refer me to? So what I'd do is save a backup, and then save in-fane on a space station, leave the game and restart with mod loaded and check for bugs?

#

What kind of bugs do I check for? And are there mods that are well known to be safe?

Was there more than one beacon in the list, and did you save on the main tab then reload the game?

Yes, I tried with both, then saved, then reloaded.

vale iron Dec 7, 2020, 8:08 PM

Are you just planning to delete the whole base? If so it's probably easier in JSON

lapis cairn Dec 7, 2020, 8:08 PM

#

Yeah, I don't mind deleting if that'll fix it.

vale iron Dec 7, 2020, 8:08 PM

#

PersistentPlayerBases then probably the last one (name is at the end)

#

Select all, delete, done

lapis cairn Dec 7, 2020, 8:23 PM

#

Ok, that worked I think. I put in a new base computer... much further down just in case.

#

Thank you so much.

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 6:23 PM

#

Hi , any mod for delete once for all a bugged quest item ?

#

i can't remove it from my inventory it keep come back after deleting :x

lean saffron Dec 8, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

Recommendations for a mod that lets me fly above camera mode height for better aerial screenshots? Or am I better off just building a tower. (Survival save, not Creative)

vale iron Dec 8, 2020, 6:36 PM

#

@lean saffron Gcam can do that. There are others I think but don't know the names

#

@tacit linden have you finished the quest? I know until you finish they'll definitely keep popping up.

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 6:39 PM

#

@vale iron no , its the void egg ship quest

#

i can store the egg but i have a mature neural stem i can't delette

#

and i'm pretty new to the game so i have no glyph or thing like that so it was planned to do the quest later

vale iron Dec 8, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

Yeah I don't know if there's any way to delete that permanently until you finish the quest, unfortunately

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

hum ok , but maybe i can use a mod for delete my quest progression ?

vale iron Dec 8, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

I would say try to get a ride to the planet, since you're so close to the end

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

and start thequest later

vale iron Dec 8, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

That would be save editing, not a mod

#

Which you could do, but you have to edit the raw JSON

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

hum

#

maybe i should deal with it instead of take the risk to mess up my file

vale iron Dec 8, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

Yeah. Another option is to use the nmscoordinates program to teleport you to the location

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

hum yeah but no i think keep it in that state for now x)

#

thx for your answer @vale iron

vale iron Dec 8, 2020, 6:44 PM

#

No problem

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 6:57 PM

#

By the ways if someone have a working version of that mod , i would like it please , thx in advance :

(for be able to 0 u/s speed on a planet instead of a minimal)

lean saffron Dec 8, 2020, 7:40 PM

#

Thanks, @vale iron, will look into it

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:20 PM

#

@blazing thunder this is @vale iron 's GBase - Basic but with IsPlaceable in the batch, meaning it's applied to every buildable item. If this setting causes an issue for a specific item, please let me know and I'll pass it along to Gumsk, or let them know directly

📎 GBase_with_IsPlaceable.zip

blazing thunder Dec 8, 2020, 8:21 PM

#

awesome thank you so muich

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:22 PM

#

no problem. all I did was add IsPlaceable to the batch. GBase Basic is actually those two mods combined

#

I keep them separate rather than combine them into one mod to make it easier when I'm working on something custom for myself

blazing thunder Dec 8, 2020, 8:23 PM

#

Makes sense... I'll mess with it after work today. excited!

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:23 PM

#

which reminds me, i need to fix the mech speed in the exocraft speed mod. its set to the same as everything else and is absolutely hilarious to watch trying to run around

blazing thunder Dec 8, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

did you make it super fast?

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

omfg

#

it has like uncontrollable seizures

blazing thunder Dec 8, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

lol poor mech

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:26 PM

#

[INFO]: -- On line 3113, exchanged: [<Property name="TopSpeedForward" value="2" />] with: [<Property name="TopSpeedForward" value="32" />]

#

so i need to pull the xml apart and find the right keywords to single out the mech and change it back to something sane

blazing thunder Dec 8, 2020, 8:27 PM

#

that's a rather large increase

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:27 PM

#

lol yeah

#

and 32 is too fast

blazing thunder Dec 8, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

I imagine terrain not even loading

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

i finally got a chance to really run around in an exo last night and i need to slow it down some

#

im super happy with my derelict mod tho

#

i took the derelict speed increase mod and tweaked it so it feels like grav boots but not like running through syrup

blazing thunder Dec 8, 2020, 8:29 PM

#

oh yeah i saw you talking about that

#

did you end up increasing enemy difficulty too or was that someone else?

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

yeah so the default derelict speeds are 1.6/3.5 where planet speeds are 4.4/8. i settled in at 2.5/4.0 and it feels pretty proper

#

nah, but im thinking about it

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

ok look like no (about mod for short tp range) , so if a modder take request , i suggest a mod for increase the maximum range betwen 2 short range teleporter please.

(for now i'll put 2 duo)

blazing thunder Dec 8, 2020, 8:30 PM

#

i think gumsks base mod does that...

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:31 PM

#

@tacit linden GBase extends teleporter cables and supply lines to 2ku

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:31 PM

#

well i've check on nexus and it didnt find teleporter term

#

(1 mod was show and it was for disable teleporter)

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:32 PM

but thx , i read it

#

ok i think the basic will do the job

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:34 PM

#

basic is what i use

#

but do yourself a favor

#

use the one i just put here in chat

#

it makes a change Gumsk overlooked, and that chang will be included in their next release

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:35 PM

#

hum , wich one you speak about ?

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:35 PM

#

scroll up 🙂

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:35 PM

#

frozen herald <@!155361085971628033> this is <@!630209160860008468> 's GBase - Basic but with ...

this one

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:36 PM

#

"GBase 2x" ?

#

"GBase Basic, but all power, extraction, and storage is 2x normal."

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:37 PM

#

@tacit linden this

📎 GBase_with_IsPlaceable.zip

#

that is gbase split into its 2 separate mods, but with IsPlaceable included in the batch

#

the second mod, boundaries, is the one that extends your teleporter cable

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:38 PM

#

hum , but what did "IsPlacable" doing please ?

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:38 PM

#

it allows any item to be placed anywhere. lets you use the underwater tubes above water, place the trade terminal anywhere there's a power source, etc

#

it's intended behavior for the GBase mod, and missing from the current release

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:39 PM

#

ah , sound interesting but in the same time i'm a bit afraid to abuse of it soon or late xD

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:39 PM

#

it's perfectly safe. i'm a big builder and have tested it extensively

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:40 PM

#

it's the first time i do the game and i've around 4 day only , i usualy don't do mod that soon

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:40 PM

#

all this mod does is make your base bigger, remove the restrictions on cable lengths and make it so you can put anything anywhere

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:40 PM

#

yeah but i mean i would like stay legit as possible

#

it sometime hard to resist haha

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:40 PM

#

it doesnt add any parts or anything like that

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:41 PM

#

my only issue for now is the short range tp range

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:41 PM

#

well, if all you want is extended teleport range, then only use the boundaries pak in that zip

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:41 PM

#

yeah i think i'll for now

#

later i'll see for more

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:42 PM

that's what is modified by the boundaries pak

#

the GBase - Basic that you see on nexus is actually the two .pak files I sent combined

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:43 PM

#

ok thanks you for your help and explanation ^^

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 8:44 PM

#

no sweat. this isnt my work, btw. all credit goes to @vale iron for being a mad wizard

tacit linden Dec 8, 2020, 8:44 PM

#

yeah but still thx for explanation

#

(and yeah ofc thx to Gumsk too ^^)

#

Btw , any suggestion about mod for better clouds (i find the vanilla one a bit ugly and too opaque) and an another for better space ? i've see a mod for darker space but comment seem said it was a bit outdated so i didnt take the risk.

#

(and in the same time i dont really want to be a full black space)

#

take your time for answer but @ me for be sure i dont miss an answer if someone have some ideas , thx.

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 9:18 PM

#

no, not really... i'm not even sure they can be modded

#

someone did a really nice reshade mod, but i'm not sure it's up to date now

there, fixed the mech speed

                            }
                        }

did the trick

#

i think i need to increase its turn radius

frozen herald Dec 8, 2020, 9:53 PM

#

omfg this thing is infuriating

vale iron Dec 9, 2020, 12:59 AM

#

@frozen herald you need to change the animation speeds as well so the legs don't tear at high speeds. Check GMech

frozen herald Dec 9, 2020, 1:08 AM

#

ive been running around in it for a while... i had to lower mechturnspeed and mechjetpackturnspeed to get it behaving, but i'm pretty happy with it now

#

i havent noticed any tearing

vale iron Dec 9, 2020, 1:09 AM

#

Try going up hills. I think it was over 4 that it started doing it, but I can't remember

frozen herald Dec 9, 2020, 1:09 AM

#

{"MechTurnSpeed", "0.5"}, -- Original "1.6"
{"MechJetpackTurnSpeed", "0.9"}, -- Original "3"

#

alright ill give it a try

#

after dinner

lapis cairn Dec 9, 2020, 3:17 AM

#

I’m picturing a mech running full speed and the legs falling off now.

frozen herald Dec 9, 2020, 7:02 AM

#

man you should have seen it before i fixed the mod

#

with max speed at 32

#

i cant even explain it...but it was fuggen hilarious

#

as I have it now, it handles like a dream. i actually use it a LOT

#

its amazeballs on extreme planets

vale iron Dec 9, 2020, 8:24 AM

#

Yeah, with improved handling and speed, I like it a lot, too. Only problem now is landing accurately

tacit linden Dec 9, 2020, 9:37 AM

#

@frozen herald ok i've tried to place a trading galactic thing on a wall...

#

so now i will use the zip you send yesterday x)

#

so yeah , thx for your mods @vale iron (i'll use auto door as well)

vale iron Dec 9, 2020, 9:39 AM

#

Glad you like them. Let me know if there are any issues or you have ideas

tacit linden Dec 9, 2020, 9:39 AM

#

no problem , i'll ^^

#

@vale iron do you have "speciality" about mods in NMS ? or you can/want mods any kinds of stuff ?

#

hum maybe a mod for improve the top screen radar , it's easy to align us with an icon at the horizontal level but when you are "in front" , we never know if they are above or under us

#

a little arrow above or under the icon will give us that information (if you see what i mean)

#

i mean in a case like that i know it's on my left , so i turn on the left for face it , so until now it's ok :
https://gyazo.com/48859d01704d27d7567df3b80e1172a9

After that i dont know if i need to go up or down :
https://gyazo.com/612d8832a35e35b72367144286aa4a84

a mod who add a little arrow will solve that problem , like that :
https://gyazo.com/ffbc4c87796358b1948b5f998fe23db5
(so in this case i know it's above me)

vale iron Dec 9, 2020, 10:22 AM

#

That would be useful, but I don't think it's possible with what we have access to 😦

tacit linden Dec 9, 2020, 10:38 AM

#

yeah im not sure the game itself know how to detect that so it's maybe impossible :/

#

hum look like the place anywhere work in way but not exactly anywhere

#

can place galactic trade on the floor but not on a metal wall

#

(look like im not allowed to ctrl+v a screen here)

vale iron Dec 9, 2020, 10:51 AM

#

You can use #nms-photomode-gallery It won't let you place there or it doesn't work when you do?

tacit linden Dec 9, 2020, 10:54 AM

#

done

vale iron Dec 9, 2020, 11:05 AM

#

Oh you mean it's not flipping to be horizontal with the floor? Not sure if there's a way to fix that

tacit linden Dec 9, 2020, 11:08 AM

#

no i mean i would like to put it on the wall (like a regular station)

#

@vale iron

#

but the fact i can put it on the floor prove the mod is here

lime mesa Dec 9, 2020, 10:10 PM

#

hi, quick question, does no mans sky support vr full body tracking (hip + feet trackers)

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 8:16 AM

#

@vale iron hello , if i use your mod for longer teleportation cable or build anywhere , then remove it , did longer cable than vanilla or item placed where they shouldnt will stay here plz ?

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 8:17 AM

#

Yes, they will stay

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 8:17 AM

#

ok , and did you think one of your mod can conflict with Better Build Menu ?

#

i've add an uptodate version but seem don't work so maybe its a conflict

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 8:18 AM

#

Possible. I don't know what all that edits

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 8:18 AM

#

look like "METADATA\REALITY\TABLES\BASEBUILDINGTABLE.MBIN"

#

(for BBM)

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

Yes, it conflicts

#

I was just looking, too

#

You can merge them, though. Both he and I provide LUA files

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 8:19 AM

#

ok , also as a pretty new player i must admit i'm a bit confused to see base build available in my freighter haha

#

yeah i've read that but im not that confident into my skill for merge things

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 8:20 AM

#

Yeah, you can do fun stuff on the freighter 🙂

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 8:20 AM

#

for now atleast

#

and its not "dangerous" for the freighter ? i mean a friend got a pretty broken freighter even without mod (we often get tp back on top of it so forced to die for respawn in a station)

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 8:21 AM

#

I haven't noticed it be any more buggy than a normal freighter

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 8:22 AM

#

ok i'll see what i doing

#

for now about your mods i have :
-Gdoor (but not sure how to use it , or conflict)
-GBase Expanded bounds and wires (for longer tp)
-GBase basic items with doors anywhere (tbh i'm not that sure of what it do xD)

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 8:26 AM

#

GBase Items mainly is for freeing up things. So you can resize everything and to greater extremes, put things anywhere, color anything

#

GDoor just works, unless it's conflicting with something, which I really doubt. You just put it in the Mods folder and then your automatic doors work without power or wiring

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 8:28 AM

#

hum , so about Gbase it should conflict because for example i cant change color or barrel creator for example (the red barrel asking a atlas pass) , but longer tp cable work so idk

#

and for the door i only tested garage door but i'll try regular door now

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

You'll need the GDoor Garage variant if you also want garage doors

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

ok normal door is ok

#

oh i though it was included in the basic version

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

So put both versions of GDoor in and you'll have both normal and garage doors working

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 8:29 AM

#

ok nice , thanks you

#

how can i open a .pak please ? for see wich file is edited by a mod ? (even if i can't change anything it in)

#

tried winrar but no luck

#

i'm still a bit confused about GBase mods x)

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 8:32 AM

#

No, you would need to unpack it with MBINCompiler

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 8:32 AM

#

ah yes it remind me it was a bit painful cuz iirc starbound mod was also .pak

#

i've create few mod for it years ago

#

so i think re-read mods description for see modified files haha

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 8:33 AM

#

On mine, they are all listed on my GMods page

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 8:35 AM

#

yeah i see it

#

good job for that too okglove

#

its very strange because when i read GBase x.x boundary feature it seem working (and didnt change basebuildingtable so no conflict) and when i read GBase x.x items it don't seem to work but it modify basebuildingtable wich conflict with betterbuildmenu

#

(and the gbase x.x items didnt seem working before add betterbuildmenu too)

#

maybe an another mod conflict with it

#

but before adding mods who can potentialy modify buildingtable i had only things changing sky , multiple freigther , starfiled and ship space map

#

i think the main reason why i'm lost is i don't know if
"GBase Basic_Items_with_Doors_Anywhere 310a"
is Boundary or Item mod , and same for
"GBase Expanded_Bounds_and_Wires 310a"

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 9:06 AM

#

@tacit linden

📎 GBase_and_Better_Build_Menu_313s.pak

#

There's a combined version so you don't have to worry about conflicts

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 9:07 AM

#

@vale iron Oh thanks you very much ^^

#

very kind of you

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 9:08 AM

#

That's both GBase files and the build menu

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 9:08 AM

#

yeah the name is pretty self-explanatory :p

#

atleast i'm not confused this time haha

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 9:09 AM

#

yeah, that's why I usually pack them together, to avoid the confusion it causes

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 10:07 AM

#

Yo , do you think this mod still work ?
https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/548?tab=description

#

not updated since some times but if nothing changed about that in game since that , it should.

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 10:09 AM

#

Probably not, but let me look into it

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 10:10 AM

#

oh ok thanks you (once again ^^')

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 10:10 AM

#

Actually, there's a good chance it might. It only modifies the textures. If it doesn't work, we could probably recompile it to get it updated

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 10:11 AM

#

ok i start my game for check that ^^

#

(but i cant check glyph itself since i didnt have them yet)

#

@vale iron ok when in Photo mod i can see modified glyph at the bottom-left

#

so it should do the same at others glyph location

#

will see when i'll unlock them , until that i keep the mod

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 10:17 AM

#

Yeah, I think they just modified the image for the glyphs to add text to it

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 10:18 AM

#

it can be usefull

#

yeah look like

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 10:18 AM

#

Yeah for sure

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 11:08 AM

#

@vale iron Btw do you think its possible to add new building part with a mod ?

#

i think not since others user will not be able to see them

#

(unless they have the mod too)

hushed bronze Dec 10, 2020, 11:12 AM

#

Your assumptions about such a mod are both correct and such mods have been made in the past

#

@tacit linden

tacit linden Dec 10, 2020, 11:13 AM

#

hum ok

#

because i've start a hexagone shaped base and even if i can rotate (with Gumsk mod) in various axis triangular floor for made a half-dome , its pretty difficult

#

and the vanilla biodome scaled up (still with Gumsk mod) have a rounded shape , not hexa :x

vale iron Dec 10, 2020, 11:17 AM

#

Unfortunately, mods that add pieces need everyone to have that mod, are very easily broken by updates, and hard to keep updated
