[swift sand]

basically, look for planets with strider/rhinos/diplos

[jolly umbra]

Is there anyway to know that ahead of time?

[swift sand]

nah, just know that planets with rusted metal or gold on the list wont have them, focus on the others, ones with more fauna species, freighter scanner room can help a bit there if you have it

[nova zealot]

Heya, are fleet exploration modules less common than trade/combat/mining? I've done a bunch of derelict freighters and pirate dreadnought fights and never gotten one, but already maxed out the others

[brazen flame]

is there any way to get your freighter to a far away location? i warped like super far away to another end of the galaxy and it says "cant warp freighter here" i mightve just not warped it in correct locations or is it bound by distance

[gilded quiver]

how do i get the atlas winged jetpack?

[brazen flame]

okay nevermind i just never was in the right location 😭

[nova wyvern]

It's an old expedition reward, if you're on PC you can save edit it in but otherwise you just gotta hope they return the expedition it was from, expedition 12 Omega

[nova zealot]

It's not bound by distance but you'll need the correct hyperdrive module for your star system. There are different ones for freighters just like for your starship. You can buy the blueprints at the console on the freighter using salvaged frigate modules

[brazen flame]

i already cleared up the question myself but thanks for following up i guess

can you find reactors for starships or only buy them

[still stream]

Hey is there anyway to like, download corvettes I mean like if someone makes a really cool ship is there a way to just download/import it so you can have it too?

[tulip dust]

how can you tell if a planet will have deep oceans? do you just have to go to every planet with water and check?

[gray shoal]

Planets with Lithium have deep oceans

[feral loom]

I usually just check the exterior of the planet, if it's got transparent blue .

[tulip dust]

awesome thank you

[stuck berry]

Also about 20% of planets in purple systems that have water will have water levels way higher than normal but far lower than waterworlds. These planets can usually be identified by much more of their surface being covered in water, and how small islands don't stick out from the surface of their waters every ~1,000u

[tulip dust]

cool ty

[stuck berry]

For planets with normal water levels, the terrain is very built around that water level with beaches and stuff poking out every bit for you to land on. Planets with "deep" water don't have different terrain, so the shores will more often be cliff faces and colossal slopes if there are any at all

[restive latch]

Is this weird or rare? Has anyone else encountered this?

[mossy sonnet]

@bk201 so i understand "bumping the seed" and have applied it sucessfully. I then continued on installing to try and find better x class upgrades. When I ran out of upgrades to install, I stored them. Do the stats of the upgrade, when stored, stay with the upgrade?

[simple yoke]

It’s my second day sending out frigates and I got the dream aerial 🥳 I researched what it is and I’m super excited. But I have 30k in units… how rich should I be before I attempt to use it? 😭

[crimson bluff]

I need my damage to reach past 100k!

[stuck berry]

I believe your first living frigate is free

[spring whale]

So, teleporting away from the mould will respawn it?

How far away do I put the other teleporter?

[kind owl]

i simply have two bases with teleporter

[spring whale]

A+ weapon name

[simple yoke]

Omg really???? Wow

[crimson bluff]

Check the names. Like "Pelagic" or "Abyssal" Variants. If the planet type is listed as a "Pelagic Planet" or an "Abyssal Moon," you are almost guaranteed to find depths far exceeding the standard 100U.

[spring whale]

Oh, can I not use the little one ?

[kind owl]

i think he has to reload

[spring whale]

Ok

[crimson bluff]

I was thinking of naming it “Ctrl + Alt + Del”

[spring whale]

Thats good to

[kind owl]

my freighter (star destroyer)

[crimson bluff]

What kind of freighter?

[kind owl]

the flat one

see here

[winter wolf]

i believe objects like that will respawn when you're 600u away from the area. the limit of the short range teleporter is 200u, so you would need them in a series

[slender raven]

does anyone know and/or have a chart that states the stat bonuses provided by specific ship parts for assembling ships?

[primal shore]

regular starship or corvette?

[slender raven]

regular starship that can be built at starship fabricator in the back of space stations

[primal shore]

there is no bonus, it's all cosmetic
just the core matter

[celest mist]

Does doing this lag the game?

[steel folio]

I mean, I cant imagine its great for lag

[celest mist]

I just want to know so i know not to do it lol

[ember helm]

how the hell even

roamer? in the anomaly?

i am baffled

[celest mist]

Lol

[ember helm]

<@&590975379678953522> spam

[steel folio]

for assembling Starships each part combination has a specific SC layout ||and maybe stats|| that can roll at each Station - this has been explored to a lesser extent with building Iron Vultures, but given the overall part combination possibilities no complete chart exists nor is likely to

[winter wolf]

doing mostly anything you're not "supposed" to do, like building corvettes beyond the 100 part limit or outside their space envelope, summoning pets you shouldn't be able to have, using exocraft, etc. all those things are going to impact other people aboard the anomaly

[celest mist]

Ok ty, ill be sure not to do that again

In multiplayer at least

[subtle stag]

for fishing missions: Do you have to fish where it says to go

[stuck berry]

If it doesn't ask for a specific type of fish, I believe so but not fully sure

[slender raven]

ah ok, fair enough

[celest mist]

I figured out that if you switch build modes really fast you can put an exocraft spawner on a corvette

[ember helm]

LMFAO.

god i love this fucking game holy shit

[subtle stag]

so i have to catch 12 uncommon fish WHERE it says to, I can't like go to my marine planet and catch them

[stuck berry]

That is not a type of fish, so you may be able to catch it anywhere but again I'm not fully sure

By type, I mean like biome-specific fish

[subtle stag]

the quest always puts me in really shallow water

the marker

and i can never catch that many uncommons

[stuck berry]

then go elsewhere on the planet possibly

or use better bait

[celest mist]

Portal terminals to

[stuck berry]

or dig a hole

[subtle stag]

biat makes like 2% difference

[stuck berry]

What kind of bait are you using?

[subtle stag]

pellets

i don't know how to get bait receiptes

[stuck berry]

You get the bait recipes when you unlock the Fishing Rig blueprints

They're in the Curiosity tab

[severe otter]

||Im stuck on the autophage step to earn a core for the voltaic staff||

I can show one autophage the fiberglass thing over and over to get infinite standing and none of the other npcs offer a quest to learn anything new.

How do i get the thing im after?

[stuck berry]

Are you in a multiplayer group?

[severe otter]

Yes

[stuck berry]

Leave it, then save and reload

[severe otter]

Ty

[subtle stag]

I don't see anything. I don't know how to unlock the receipes

[stuck berry]

You automatically unlock them by unlocking the Fishing Rig blueprint at Iteration: Eos. If you somehow have that but do not have the bait blueprints then I'm not sure how that happened

[subtle stag]

got it, thought you mean Curiosities in the discovery tab

[high sedge]

how do I get

a higher class on my corvette

[weary zodiac]

if I delete the storage containers on my Freighter will I lose the items in them?

[weary zodiac]

Upgrade at the spacestation

[winter wolf]

use the starship upgrade/salvage terminal in the back left of any space station

[stuck berry]

The cost is a lot, but !faq-nanites in #nms-commands shows many ways of obtaining vast amounts of nanites

[high sedge]

thanks ya'll

[severe otter]

Whats terminal prime?

I have no quest marker for researching properties of atlantidium

[winter wolf]

back left corner on the anomaly station, behind the door

[torn sable]

is there a limit to how high you can build up on a planet (if it's possible I kinda want to try building a base in orbit of a gas giant, like high enough to get the banded gas effect)

[jaunty egret]

is there updaye yet

[jaunty egret]

Yes, pretty much. it is basically infinite but if you reload it will delete itself

[torn sable]

damn it

[stuck berry]

No, stay tuned to #nms-news-ticker

[mossy meteor]

Is the living ship u receive at the end of the quest the same one that you talk to to get the locations?

[red holly]

I got an S class Freighter today. When I went to setup the frigate storage and everything loved the color the area was. Black, blue type but I cant find this color in any of the settings is there not a way to continue this color?

[solid oasis]

It's better to decide on one platform to play this game on and stick to it...ideally PC, PS5, or Xbox Series S/X if possible...last gen consoles are struggling for performance, Switch 1 is not doing well with NMS and Nintendo is very slow with updates which is affecting Switch 2, particularly critical in regards to expeditions which are timed events. But yeah, cross save movement as much as possible...ideally completely.

[solid oasis]

Not sure, have you played with the coloring options when building new rooms? You should also be able to recolor stuff you already built. Not sure off the top of my head if you'll find the color the freighter already had but you should hopefully find something you like.

[red holly]

Yeah have been playing with coloring options but not finding this as an option. Even tried copying room and I can do that, but nto everything can be placed over that spot to replace it. So not every room is available to change this way.

[vague geode]

@red holly Copy any freighter corridor/room of the color you want then place it where your next room goes. Edit that room and select the structure you really want. It will be the color of the corridor/room you copied.

[red holly]

Yeah I did that with some the problem is that only storage rooms 0 through 8 and couple other rooms allow you to swatch it with structure wise it didnt give me the option to do that with any other room

[mellow moat]

I have a question am on planet with no carbon and I have zero launch fuel and this plant dosen't have carbon I belive

What do I do?

[torn crystal]

Any tips on finding gas giant planets? I’ve been warping between purples but can’t find one yet

[solid oasis]

Eeverything has carbon. Airless planets have condeensed carbon and if worst comes to worse you can always refine oxygen you get from hostile plants or underwater kelp into carbon in a portable refiner.

[winter wolf]

every planet has the materials necessary to repair or craft the components necessary for launch. even on a dead planet, you can find carbon mixed in with some of the rocks

[mellow moat]

Is ferrite dust also on every planet?

[winter wolf]

almost every rock will have ferrite dust

[mellow moat]

Phew I thought I was cooked

[stuck berry]

They'll specifically say that they have a Gas Giant

[winter wolf]

you can tell if a system contains a gas giant from the galaxy map, before you ever warp there. where many other systems will say "water" or "dissonant", some purples will say "gas giant"

[torn crystal]

Gotcha. Can they appear in only certain galaxies or all of them?

[winter wolf]

All

[burnt elm]

My ship's sail's are not working why they open to start and then wont open again.

[still stream]

I’m sorry but can anyone genuinely help me or show me the absolute minimum corvette build because I don’t know how to do the minimum since it’s my first time trying to use nomansapp and I need to see the minimum corvette build

Just so I can meet the requirement of it saying I need the absolute minimum corvette build so nomansapp can deliver the ship

[vague geode]

You need a cockpit, habitat, reactor, 2 landing gear, a ramp to enter-exit and a photon cannon.

Also (2) thrusters?

[still stream]

I know but the thing is I don’t know how to do that every time I place it all it looks very wonky and and way too big to be minimum😭

[vague geode]

The basic out of the box corvette is not pretty - you work up to pretty.

[still stream]

No I know but like..will me doing what you said meet nomansapp requirement for the delivery thing? Like if I do it and it looks very wonky is it still gonna work since the delivery service guy needs to delete all of it and rebuild the actual corvette download

Sorry I know I’m kinda being stupid

[vague geode]

@still stream May I ask why you are having it delivered when you can build one yourself with basic parts from the corvette terminal? The expense isn't that great and the terminal will tell you if it can be flown or not.

[still stream]

Well I’ve spent a lot of time on this game and like I just got my pc and I keep seeing rlly cool vids with people having insane modded ships that are literally huge

I would build it myself but the only thing is they all exceed the amount you can build normally with no delivery service mod

[vague geode]

@still stream May I suggest going into creative mode so testing won't cost you any thing and experiment with the terminal until you feel comfortable with what you want delivered?

[still stream]

Okay I will try doing that and that way I can just follow a YouTube guide on how to build the ship

Ty!

[rich jay]

hullo

anyone know if standing still in the game counts as active playtime?

I’m trying to do the 3 hour freighter thing

[stuck berry]

Only one of each of those things are truly required

[stuck berry]

It does, as long as you are not in any menus

[rich jay]

nice

[solid oasis]

I never touched mods and would never touch them. And I wouldn't use the delivery service bot to bypass build limits either. For one, I am more than happy with the 100 part corvette I legitimately built myself, secondly giant corvettes are unwieldy, a massive pain to navigate around planets or in stations/anomaly. and more important than everything else NMS is a constantly changing game...always getting massive updates every year...the last thing you want is for a new update to change the game in a way it can no longer deal with whatever you forced in there with mods or service bot and then you lose your saves. This is my 100 part completely legit corvette...there are zero reasons to screw with mods:

[vital estuary]

Built this a couple nights ago, nothing extra other than some quality time at the building terminal at the space station. I don't know how many parts are on it exactly and not going to try to count either. Certainly less than a hundred and have yet to even make one that big, and this one is likely to be the last one I build for a very long time.
What isn't seen is the inside, has enough space for 26 refiners, all the storage containers, and a couple nutrient processors. Even has a couple empty walkways, one as an access point to the side habs and another where I can stand and tag stuff without trying to interact with something by accident.
You probably won't be entirely happy with the first corvette you build, or even following ones, but gets easier with practice.

[mossy meteor]

Is the top part of a living ship in the front always that weird white looking spot, or can it be a diff color

[solid oasis]

You have an image to show what you're talking about?

[mossy meteor]

Nah because I've been trying not to spoil myself much on what possible living ship colors there are my searching them up

[coral pond]

Speaking of living ships, I should check my egg...

[solid oasis]

No idea what "weird white looking spot" you're talking about.

[mossy meteor]

But perhaps the fact that u have no idea means that it was just the one living ship I saw in the anomaly

Cuz it was ugly 🙁

Rest of the ship was fine

But it was not

[coral pond]

Don't tell the person who owns the ship that👀

[mossy meteor]

Anyways, is the living ship also the same one that keeps contacting you in the quest line that u receive at the end

I'm assuming so but just want to ask and make sure

[coral pond]

You mean the one you get from the quicksilver store?

Or am I thinking of smth else

[mossy meteor]

Yeah from the void quest egg

Void egg quest*

[coral pond]

Ah ye. You just gotta wait continuously. I've been waiting on mine for like the past 2 days I think

[mossy meteor]

I meant is the one that contacts u the same one u get at the end

Cuz I like what I saw from the communication segments

[coral pond]

OHHHH

Idk actually since the egg I'm hatching rn is my first one. I'd assume that it's not the same color scheme but rather design. Take that with a grain of salt tho

[mossy meteor]

I'm not sure ur getting my question either but it's alright

[coral pond]

No I got ur question

"Is the ship I see during the communication segments with the void egg quest the ship i will be getting"

[mossy meteor]

The one that u keep pulse driving to meet in space

[ember helm]

no, its not

[mossy meteor]

K

[ember helm]

i just finished it and it looks entirely different

[mossy meteor]

Rip then

[coral pond]

Might as well just keep hunting sentinel ships then...

[mossy meteor]

Well there is a small chance it still ends up a good color

[ember helm]

its worth it to finish the mission at least, that unlocks getting more in the future

[coral pond]

True

[mossy meteor]

? Wouldnt u just need another void egg and then wait another 4 days

[coral pond]

I'm still focusing more on autophage quests for more staff parts

[ember helm]

thats only for Starbirth

[mossy meteor]

What happens after?

[ember helm]

#nms-questions message

you need the egg still but theres no 4 day wait

that's just for Starbirth, introducing you to the concept of Living Ships

[mossy meteor]

Ah that's really worth it then

Would have been horrible to wait 4 days per each

[ember helm]

agreed lmfao

[solid oasis]

Once you get another void egg after the Starbirth quest is done you will be able to trade the void egg to a living ship in space, quest will instantly replace a regular crashed ship with a living ship and mark the location for you, then you can go and accept or reject it...if you reject it, the void egg gets magically teleported back in your inventroy and you can go to another system and repeat the process. You only lose the egg once you accept a living ship. If you do it too many times the game can bug out and you will find a regular ship instead of a living ship at the marked location, if this happens, save and reboot the game...that will fix it.

[mellow moat]

Hey people

I Just started nms

Does anybody want to do a mission together ?

[solid oasis]

You don't actually need to be in multiplayer to do nexus missions...you can do them by yourself very easily...most are fairly simple.

[plucky snow]

Oh okay thank u!

This game is weird but somehow fascinating

Are there a lot of clans or something like that ?

Just asking for the future, can imagine it's fun to play in a community

[wet sigil]

Not very

[severe otter]

Do yall know how i can retire as overseer in an autophage settlement? It says complete objectives an the only objective says “do everything”

[solid oasis]

Multiplayer doesn't work really well in this game. PvP is completely broken because everyone is free to mod, glitch, save edit, etc. so griefers have cheated ships and multitools. And PvE doesn't synch very very well...you can be in a group and enemies don't synch well and it results in invincible enemy ships that take no damage, etc. And mutliplayer in general creates problems...if a player takes a multitool or crashed ship others won't be able to, if someone interacts with a one interaction place like the terminal of crashed freighter, a grave, etc. then others won't be able to. And building together doesn't work well either...no two bases can be too close to each other and if they are they block expansion so you won't be able to extend to nearby hotspots or one will prevent the other from spawning in your game, etc. And there are sooo many more bugs and issues caused by multiplayer I can't mention here. TLDR on multiplayer: best to keep it turned off...not worth bothering with imo.

[solid oasis]

Go to the plaque at the center of the settlement, the one you interacted with to claim the settlement. You can retire there.

[severe otter]

I cannot

[solid oasis]

Why not?

[severe otter]

“Cannot retire yet - complete settlement objectives”

My only objective is “manage your settlement”

[solid oasis]

Do you have a building under construction?

[severe otter]

Nope

Although im being informed that the citizens are coming up with a proposal in 16 minutes

Maybe its that

[stuck berry]

You may need to start/progress/complete "A Trace of Metal"

[keen wing]

In this game if I do a corvette with a mod, If the mod isn't updated, will I lose it?

[stuck berry]

No

Especially if it's just Beyond Base Building or the Base Building App

The only base building things that truly depend on a mod to exist are wholely new base parts, which won't be seen by other players that lack the mod regardless

[slate torrent]

i didnt change anything in my pc

it just start happening this error

my drivers up 2 date

[crimson bluff]

Someone rate my trash weapon, I need help reaching past the bare minimum amount of damage potential. (100k)

[slate torrent]

I guess im gonna play tarkov then today xD

[shell ridge]

Look at !faq-multitoollayout in #nms-commands

[high sedge]

the log on expanding my settlement is telling me to build a construction terminal but it's not visible in my build menu

[swift sand]

select the relevant settlement mission in your Log, save+reload then follow mission marker

[high sedge]

Doesn't work, FYI I used save point

[swift sand]

can you post a screenshot of your screen when you're playing please

[swift sand]

expanding the base is a mission that cannot be done while inside a settlement; a settlement isn't a base. need to move away from that settlement, drop and claim a base comp, then follow expanding the base instructions

[high sedge]

Ohhh ok got it thx

[keen wing]

I saw there was a mod that lets you make bigger corvettes, so if it's not updated, the parts that depended on the mod won't be visible, right?

[swift sand]

i assume that after built, you dont need the mod anymore; you'd only need the mod if you wanted to do more changes to a corvette that's above 100 parts already

[keen wing]

Ok, thanks

[solid sequoia]

Hi, I'm relatively new to the game and I'm currently exploring the pet system. I saw that you can have a flying griffin as a pet, which I thought was really cool, but I can't figure out how to get one or find it. Could someone please explain how I can get one?

[swift sand]

high fliers like birds or flying snakes cannot be tamed in vanilla nms, must use a mod to adopt these in game - though you could get a companion egg from another player who has already done so. try asking around #nms-modding for the former, and #nms-lfg-or-trades for the latter

[solid sequoia]

Ah, okay, yes, that explains it. Thanks for the information.

[glossy finch]

Hello fellow travelers.

I'm here today hoping to get some advice, as I'm having trouble with NMS.

I'm currently trying to consolidate as many facilities as possible on an absolutely fantastic planet I found, but the settlement chart isn't responding to it.
(It either shows no reaction and consumes the chart / triggers a position interference warning / opens a settlement on another barren planet instead.)

Is there a way to fix this issue? I'd really appreciate any advice. Thank you.

[swift sand]

settlement charts are a little buggy sometimes, so you should always save before using one; that said, it's not guaranteed that that planet will have at least 1 settlement, but it could just be the chart. try to use it from a different area on the planet, or maybe even from a diff planet

[glossy finch]

Thanks, I'll give it a try. The current discord/Blue skies & green grass/A safe climate. I just can't bring myself to give up on this planet.

[glossy finch]

No good. No matter what I try, I can't establish a colony on the target planet. I'll give up and start searching other star systems...

[swift sand]

sometimes moving to a diff area on the same planet helps, sometimes it doesnt.

[glossy finch]

Yeah, I did that too, over and over. Still didn't work.
...Well, I ended up searching through nearly 300 ships just to find an interceptor with the shape I wanted.
I'll figure out star-hunting the same way.😇

How to upgrade exosuit

Drop pod takes so much time

Any augmentation update available?

[swift sand]

remember that space station and space anomaly also have a exosuit upgrade station - there are exosuit expansion unit items, but not lots of drop sources for it. mission boards and explorer guild envoys are the most reliable ones

[low anchor]

Ok

Can someone give the augmentation update I mean share

[swift sand]

yes, you could get one from another player - try asking around #nms-lfg-or-trades if anyone has one

[merry panther]

I'm having an issue traversing from Hesperius galaxy to the next one. I'm at the core's edge according to the core path, with my freighter but it refuses to select the core when trying to warp. Core is only 3300 light-years away and freighter has a range of 5100 and is fully fueled. I do have expeditions out and am wondering if that's a possible reason otherwise I'm stumped.

[merry panther]

Not my first jump

[swift sand]

core warping doesnt require range, but a fully charged hyperdrive and perhaps a indium drive, as well as galactic core pathline and gateway system selected

[swift sand]

show me your galaxy map

[merry panther]

All drives loaded and fully fueled

1 minute

[swift sand]

to be clear, you dont need neither range nor fully charged hyperdrive to get the galaxy map to move to the core

[swift sand]

i dont see the galactic core path line. warp like 1000LY away from that location, around the core, then try again

[merry panther]

That was my point, no path. Will try warping around

Thanks

[gusty vapor]

Sometimes my galaxy map glitches out. I’ve tried changing the filters but that doesent work either. Sometimes I can glitch it back by spamming the map on and off but it usually means we have to reset.

[merry panther]

Already closed game and restarted

[kind owl]

are fishing missions bound to local systems, or can i collect a bunch in different systems and do them together?

[merry panther]

Traps at water bases would be quick

[swift sand]

not sure, but if it's a generic not biome specific should work just fine on diff planets, as long as you've progressed each mission past the "reach target planet" stage

[merry panther]

Bounce between them, like my runaway mold farms.

[keen wing]

I made a corvette in creative mode to familiarize myself a bit with corvette creation, but how do I transfer one I have in creative mode to the normal world?

[swift sand]

with in game ways, you dont - but you could change that creative mode save to a normal mode save

[keen wing]

ok

[swift sand]

(that said, remember that creative/relaxed/normal/survival can all play together)

[keen wing]

ok, thanks

[midnight shadow]

I found this pretty cool multitool, but it has only 2 supercharged slots on A class, will it get 4 if I upgrade it to S?

[swift sand]

yep, and A-class could possibly get 3 without needing a class upgrade - just add more tech slots, the 3rd SC is probably on the fourth row for example

[midnight shadow]

I see, thanks

Contemplating whether I'd upgrade this or my current one to S class 50k nanites is a lot to farm 😛

[swift sand]

so in short, nr of SC slots is fixed per class, may need to add more tech slots to reveal missing ones - sometimes you'd even need a class upgrade first

[midnight shadow]

ahh right

I knew it was fixed, was just curious why only 2 were showing

[swift sand]

with some strategies, farming 50k nanites can be easy, e.g. when using sus packets tech/arms strat

[midnight shadow]

Yeah I got 1.4b units rn I might do some outlaw hopping

the layout of the charge slots are better on my current tool for scanning tho, so we'll see

[swift sand]

many players have like 2-3 tools for the various tasks, could certainly go the same route 🙂

[midnight shadow]

Yeah that makes sense, I'd just have to farm some new modules for this one then

[kind owl]

I've tested it, you can collect fishing quest like some other and finish them together.

[swift sand]

thanks!

[lucid ice]

Hi where do I track item for my corvette? (Its a flying basic block rn😭 ) and do I have to pay for those items if i found them to put on my corvette?

[kind owl]

the found part are free

[swift sand]

where do I track item for my corvette?
track item?

do I have to pay for those items if i found them to put on my corvette?
nope

[lucid ice]

Well, see which planet have those boxes or however its called- im pretty new

[kind owl]

and if you lack on money, sell unwanted (was my trick at the beginning my actual save)

[swift sand]

look for planets with salvageable scrap on the list - remember that we can also use parts we dont want to barter for parts we do want

[midnight shadow]

Yeah you need those yellow wifi signals, those drop corvette parts

[lucid ice]

Ohhh tyty

[midnight shadow]

There is a video on youtube which shows the portal code for a planet with like 10-15 scrap parts close together

most planets spawn them like 800u apart from eachother

[swift sand]

(to note, the planet i grabbed those shots on, also had areas with clusters closer together)

[lucid ice]

Thanks alot

Wow there is one in my current system -.-

[orchid latch]

That one of the few best looking tool for holding in VR 🤣 it doesn't look funny 2 hold

[midnight shadow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0cmIhelvDM if you have portals unlocked, this guy has the code with a good planet for farming

[midnight shadow]

Yeah it looks awesome just as is, I don't have VR personally, but I can imagine lol

[rare lava]

Is there only one portal in each system or is there one on each planet in a system?

[swift sand]

rule of thumb, 1 per planetary body

[rare lava]

Cool thanks! The one I found so far in on a planet with very hostile sentinels. Hopefully there is another one on a friendlier planet. lol

[swift sand]

yeah, for sure

[rare lava]

I can’t get to use the portal since the sentinels shoot me before I can use it lol

[midnight shadow]

shoot back 😄

[swift sand]

while within 100-150u away from the portal, let a sentinel spawn next to you: when it does, quickly melee jetpack away towards the portal; if you stay within 50-150u of the sentinel, game wont despawn it to spawn another closer to surprise you, letting you interact with portal nps

(ofc, can just goto a planet that's not aggressive sentinels)

[rare lava]

Cool thanks! My muli tool is trash which is why I need to find a better system.

[swift sand]

another note: see image: see the effect on damage potential? damage potential isn't really "potential", it is affected by what we have installed

here's the starter tool, with tech slot pressure, going for scanner and mining bonuses atm, but could easily be tuned differently; also remember that we can store installed tech/modules to move to a diff tool

[midnight shadow]

Of the jungle xD

[ebon prairie]

Do you still get offered a capital freighter on your second save-the-freighter warp-in event if you reject your first freighter in the latest version? Been a hot minute since I last played wanna know if that got patched out

[analog scroll]

3rd, but yes

[ebon prairie]

You have to reject two freighters to be offered a capital class freighter?

[analog scroll]

They start spawning on your 3rd battle, regardless of what you do in the first 2; but if you want a free one, yes

[brazen flame]

can black holes spawn in any system or only black hole systems, im talking about deep space encounters when pulsing

[analog scroll]

They're very, very rare as a deep space encounter, but they can happen there

[brazen flame]

i guess i got very lucky then a couple times

[keen wing]

Sorry for the questions, but with corvettes, are the statistics when they are created random in each game or does it depend on the pieces placed

[swift sand]

the bulkier the corvette is, the less maneuverable it will be - but that said, we can modify corvette build after we've finalized it the first time

[keen wing]

The thing is, the corvette in creative mode has 200 potential damage when newly created, and in normal mode I try to make the same one, but it doesn't go above 100

[swift sand]

additionally, ofc, parts you use can themselves change stats

[swift sand]

well, i wouldnt bother too much about damage potential: it's not potential, it's just a rough way to compare stuff

[glass heath]

Hey yall any way I can borrow two indoor stairs I’ll repay them once I can actually build them

[tulip dust]

@keen wing
-# to view info below, enable embeds

Damage Potential...

• Isn't a damage ceiling, or how much damage any of the installed weapons will do either;
• Is a value calculated by the game using multiple variables, including the damage innate bonus of the MT/ship and the current Tech inventory:
  • On multi-tool, only the strongest weapon system installed is included;
    -# Note: Mining Beam also counts as a weapon.
  • On starship, all installed weapon systems are included.

Summary: To more fairly compare two different MT/Ships, strip them both down to bare techs, ensuring nothing is supercharged.

Shared by: bkay201 Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

Hi, if I don’t go to the expedition I can’t get the Iron Vultures?

There's no active expedition. You can get iron vulture parts from someone who has one, but you won't unlock the paint job

How to get started with Worlds Part 2 Content

📖 Warning Purple systems are considered End-Game content as of 5.50, as such you are required to finish a certain amount of the game before you can access them

1. Complete the Artemis Path (the main story of the game)

• !faq-artemispath in #nms-commands will show the steps

2. Complete the Atlas Path (Atlas Eternal needs to be in your mission log)
3. Find a Harmonic Camp and release the multi tool seal

• !faq-interceptor in #nms-commands will show you how to find them

4. Warp to trigger They Who Returned, complete the Autophage missions
5. Return to Space and pulse until hailed
6. New Mission In Stellar Multitudes should trigger
7. Finish the mission completely to reveal all purple systems on the galaxy map.

BEFORE YOU START it would be a good idea to craft 1 Living Glass

Once you start In Stellar Multitudes, DO NOT warp far from the initial system. You will need to return to it to get to your revealed Purple system. If you have to leave, leave via the Space Station Teleporter in the system with the Atlas Station!

[ionic pond]

is this on a planet somewhere, or how do i complete this?

[analog scroll]

Starts in the Anomaly

[ionic pond]

i did that (in the room next to the portal), but idk where to go now

[analog scroll]

||Anomaly, Manufacturing facility (that you can find by scanning), Space Station, Your Ship||

[ionic pond]

can i find ||manugacturing facility|| with my exocraft scanner?

[analog scroll]

It should be marked when you scan with your visor (C/R3)

[swift sand]

sorry, didnt make the quest connection

[analog scroll]

The quest icon can sometimes be hard to see, though

[ionic pond]

ahh i thought i had to manually find it but it did it when pressing c, thanks!

[brazen flame]

can di hydrogen be refined from anything or is it an extractable resource

hotspots

[analog scroll]

You can refine di-hydrogen jelly back to di-hydrogen

[brazen flame]

is it also found in hotspots or

[analog scroll]

No

[swift sand]

keep an eye on trade terminals and npc pilot trade offerings 🙂

[analog scroll]

Neither is tritium, which can also be refined to di-hydrogen, though not at the same rate

[brazen flame]

okay thanks

[swift sand]

e.g.

[analog scroll]

Refine 30 di-hydrogen to create 1 di-hydrogen jelly, refine 1 di-hydrogen jelly to create 40 di-hydrogen

[brazen flame]

wait what 😭

[gray shoal]

Huh. I thought it was patched

[analog scroll]

Nope. Takes 40 di-hydrogen to craft a jelly, but still only 30 to refine for one

[brazen flame]

yepi just checked

[swift sand]

used to be that refining 1 jelly yielded 50 dihydro - but crafting 1 cost 40 dihydro (that's what they patched)

[gray shoal]

Oooh

Ok

Thx

Ure awesome as always

[brazen flame]

can you make ferrite dust from pure ferrite with like a 2nd ingredient or something

[analog scroll]

With Oxygen to make rusted metal, then refine the rusted metal

[brazen flame]

oh okay

[swift sand]

i usually just buy dust in t3 eco tier systems from trade terminals and npc pilots; that said, flying low and slow with your ship over a surface covered with rocks, shooting the ground, works quite well imo (upgraded infra knife and positron ejector do well)

[brazen flame]

ah okay, i usually buy the ferrite dust too but it runs out of stock so quick and i have a bunch of fe++ and o2

[swift sand]

lots of pilots to buy from, dont forget them

[brazen flame]

oh yeah i forgot about those

[slow hamlet]

is the max amount of expandable starship slots always the same or different?

[nova wyvern]

It depends on the class of the ship, I can't remember how many it is though

[analog scroll]

Cargo slots differ by ship type, tech slots are the same for all ships by class (with the exception of shuttles below S class, which max out lower than others)

[brittle mesa]

What does Stellar Corruption Detected in a planet description mean?

[analog scroll]

Nothing

[brittle mesa]

Sounds ominous

[analog scroll]

Most of the descriptors in the game are just flavor text

[slow hamlet]

cool, I got a white squid exotic. I thought that those corner outlines squares that aren't yet unlocked were the max. glad they aren't.

[analog scroll]

Exotics max at 60 tech, 105 cargo

[bold ledge]

Is it possible to punch on controller

[slow hamlet]

[analog scroll]

The core warp procedure is different from any other warp

But if this is for The Purge, know that this will not complete the mission

[brazen flame]

whats the best way to find abandoned starships

[midnight shadow]

These will guide you to crashed ships, not everytime, but idk 25% ish?

[brazen flame]

yeah ive been using these but i was wondering if there was any better options

[midnight shadow]

kill sentinel ships and farm AI fragments

[brazen flame]

i also found out if you jsut spam them until you mark every type of signal from the planet and you only do the ships it doesnt mark any other non ship ones

[midnight shadow]

depending what you want out of the crashed ships

[brazen flame]

parts and salvaging

[midnight shadow]

Ah yeah, you want regular ship for parts

you can salvage sentinel ships and just buy regular ships off of pilots if you like a part on it

otherwise it's kinda random what you find

[gleaming dagger]

@pulsar jacinth

its in different language but you can see i have it

[pulsar jacinth]

wrong exocraft, that blueprint is for minotaur, a mech, you are trying to install in a wrong exocraft. Exocraft radar, it's a different blueprint

Mech and submarine have separate sets of blueprints and upgrades, all other exocrafts use general exocraft technology

[gleaming dagger]

it said to me tho to build it in exo vechile in modifications

[analog scroll]

There are blueprints and upgrades specific to either the Minotaur or the Nautilon, then general blueprints and upgrades that apply to all of the other exocraft

[pulsar jacinth]

Minotaur Radar can only be build in the Minotour exocraft, you are using a different exocraft. When you buy a technology the game will sometimes start a mission directing you to install it, but that mission doesn't always ask if you have all needed things to complete it, e.g. whether you have Minotour exocraft unlocked/owned.

Minotaur is an exocraft, but its technology is exclusive to it, it cannot be installed in other exocraft

[gleaming dagger]

oh

[slow hamlet]

is the quicksilver event limited time?

[gleaming dagger]

thanks guys for help

[analog scroll]

There is 1 quicksilver mission offered per day + 1 weekend mission

[slow hamlet]

yes, but is the sysnthesizing thing using quicksilver limited time?

[analog scroll]

For most of the items, you buy them once and they're unlocked on every save on your account forever

[slow hamlet]

oh nice

[analog scroll]

The only things not like that are consumables (fireworks, void eggs, etc)

[slow hamlet]

the items are great but I haven't been doing the daily quicksilver quests until now so I was hoping I wouldn't run out of time to get them all

okay new question, is the community research mission a temporary event?

actually I'm assuming it's an event to permanently unlock more synthesiseable items

[analog scroll]

It recycles. When the community finishes a tier, some quicksilver items unlock for purchase and it moves on to the next. Only rewards that are time-limited are expedition rewards

[slow hamlet]

got it

[hot stirrup]

umm so I just found and bought an npc living ship on a space station...?

I think my game is broken.

[noble hatch]

So without mods and save edits, what's the furthest a Freighter can achieve with regards to the Hyperdrive?

[ember helm]

ive seen people say above 5k, mine is 4.7k

[hot stirrup]

no questions? nothing? send help.

[severe otter]

Are settlements typically worth investing in for endgame? Wondering if theyre a “meta” way to make units or generate something else valuable

[stuck berry]

Are you in multiplayer with other players nearby?

[hot stirrup]

yes

[stuck berry]

Then that's most likely why, one of them has a mod that enables living ships to be a part of the ship spawn list

[nimble wraith]

What is a Singularity Engine and where would I get one? Been doing my google-fu and it isn't coming up helpful

[gray shoal]

Past expedition reward

[jolly umbra]

Hey guys! Do I need to have a base in order to summon my exocraft? I don’t have a base and I’m just living in my freighter.

[stuck berry]

You do not, you just need to have the exocraft's geobay placed somewhere in the universe to count it as owned, which does not have to be at a base

[winter phoenix]

Yes, I believe so. You don't really need much of a base, nor does it have to be in the same star system. You just need need the geobays themselves and the base computer though.

[stuck berry]

Exocraft Geobays can be built outside of a base. Placing them outside of a base still counts as owning them for extended summoning purposes

[winter phoenix]

Neat, how would you find your geobays again if you do it that way? Do they not despawn after a while?

[stuck berry]

Objects placed outside of bases do not randomly despawn, they stay there forever

you most likely would never be able to find them again unless you place a Save Beacon next to them and remember which star system, but that doesn't matter

[viral wind]

I summoned my corvette and I get in it and it won't let me take the seat. Any ideas?

[stuck berry]

Try resummoning it, or reloading autosave

[viral wind]

What if you close the hatch on your corvette and you didn't get inside it. Are you locked out?

[slow hamlet]

there could be a beam aboard teleporter

[stuck berry]

You can either save and reload to force it open, or just open it from the outside

you can interact with the switch from the outside, even while you are airborne in case it's high up

[zinc cloak]

Is there a reason in the lore why red star systems are almost ALWAYS uncharted? Do Aliens not like red stars? Is it superstition; are red stars unlucky?

[stuck berry]

Probably something that the developers though would fit them, maybe they're meant to be the most "dead" or something

lots of game files list them at the end of the star colors instead of as the 2nd ones like in-game, so maybe they were intended to be the "highest tier" star at some point

[zinc cloak]

interesting

[stuck berry]

Blue systems having more storms kinda fits their temporal nature, like how chaotic things are when stars first form or are dying

[winter phoenix]

Presumably they are red systems because they have red stars, which are notoriously unstable for various reasons. It wouldn't be entirely unlike building your home next to a volcano. Given how much space there is around more pleasant stars, I don't see why anyone would spend resources on a red system.

[stuck berry]

purple systems being quite abandoned also makes a bit of sense, as they've been "deleted" for an indeterminate amount of time

[zinc cloak]

Ok so red stars are unstable, that makes sense then. didn't know that.

[stable locust]

Are there different techniques and tricks on the PC platform compared to others for glitch building and color swapping? I've come across many example clips for PlayStation, for example, that don't seem to work for me.

[gilded quiver]

how does one quickly obtain 1 singular hypnotic eye

[stuck berry]

I think by either finding and killing one of the abyssal horrors that drop it, which are usually at sunken buildings, or by getting them from derelict freighter boxes

[gilded quiver]

ive checked mutiple water planets and found nothing

[mossy meteor]

Should I get rid of the cracked void egg now that I'm done with the star born quest

[stuck berry]

Yeah, it's not very easy to find the specific structures without using a Nautilon's High Power Sonar

[stuck berry]

Yes, it has no purpose now

[mossy meteor]

And how long does it take a void egg after to find a new ship, cuz I've been in pulse for about 2 minutes now

Speaking of which... I just found a thing called void egg in deep space

Is that what im looking for?

[severe otter]

Can you find more than 1 settlement on a planet?

[mossy meteor]

Or did I mess it up, cuz I thought I was supposed to look for a whale song

[stark aspen]

Whale song is for the living frigates that go with the freighter, void egg is to start hatching an egg to get a living starship

[mossy meteor]

Oh alright

[stuck berry]

It should be semi-instant

[stuck berry]

Whalesongs are for Living Frigates, yeah

[mossy meteor]

This is what I found

[stuck berry]

Yeah, that rarely appears when you are piloting a living ship

if you already own your first living frigate, discard the Dream Aerial

[mossy meteor]

I did

[stuck berry]

There may be a few other things to check #nms-questions message

[mossy meteor]

So I can break this and my void egg won't disappear?

[stuck berry]

What, the space encounter in front of you? Yes, it is fully unrelated

[mossy meteor]

K

[stuck berry]

it gives a living ship upgrade

[mossy meteor]

Alright, thank you. And sorry I was being so worried about it

Do I reload the game if the void egg isnt finding any signals?

[ember helm]

Go to a different system, you might be in the same one you got the first one in

[mossy meteor]

Alright

[ember helm]

I did that lol

[mossy meteor]

It worked 😭

[ember helm]

lol

[mossy meteor]

Thanks lol

[ember helm]

anyways when you go to the coordinates, choosing "Reject this being" causes it to fly away and refunds your egg, then you can go to another system and rinse and repeat

[mossy meteor]

K

And then I'll remember to jump galaxy before pulsing next time 😭

[bitter fiber]

Can somebody help me idk why this not working

[pallid hornet]

How do I find exotic ships? I've visited over a dozen wealthy systems and probably 30-40 other systems, checked every space station, and even done that trick of reloading the save at a couple of the wealthy systems, but I haven't found a single exotic. Did they change how to find them?

[stuck berry]

Is that the cross-save page? If so, this is a known issue affecting all users

[bitter fiber]

Yea i started yesterday and it wasn’t working

[stuck berry]

Exotic ship spawn rate is not influenced by local system economy, it's always a 1 in 301 chance to spawn as any ship, with each system having one exotic ship design

Sitting at any Trade Outpost and saving and reloading after 5 ships have landed is the ideal strategy

[pallid hornet]

So do you have any tips on how to find that exotic in any given system

[stuck berry]

#nms-questions message

You can locate a Trade Outpost by using the quick menu option unlocked by having an Economy Scanner installed

[pallid hornet]

wow thanks for all the help 🙄

[ember helm]

HTTP error 500 means internal server error, there's nothing you can do

it's just not working

[bitter fiber]

Can they fix it?

[visual ocean]

hi. Im locked from doing any progress on this quest because the settlement completely glitched out and looks like this

What do i do?

[stuck berry]

Yes, of course they can

[bitter fiber]

Ok cus i started yesterday and lowkey this game is good

[stuck berry]

Try saving and reloading at the system's space station, then returning to the settlement

[visual ocean]

oki

that didnt fix it

when im flying towards that place, it looks like the buildings generate but then they just disappear when i get closer

[subtle stag]

well..my storage hanger is full, and my ship slots are full and I can't let any of these go. so I'm stuck I guess

[glossy ivy]

Try resetting the quest while in a different system. I would system hop a bit before resetting it.

[visual ocean]

how do i reset it?

[glossy ivy]

You should get a button option for missions you are not in the same system it was directed in at the bottom area to the left of where it says "Return"

[keen wing]

A story mode mission has glitched out and the NPC keeps repeating the same phrase

[silver sentinel]

Is there a fix for the white screen on selecting character?

[stuck berry]

Are you in a multiplayer group?

[stuck berry]

Try clearing your cache #nms-questions message or deleting shader cache if on PC

[visual ocean]

i went to a different system and i dont see it

[stuck berry]

That option only appears when you are >4,000 LY away from the objective

[visual ocean]

oh

[stuck berry]

possibly try entering a Black Hole

[dry talon]

Where do you find the thing that points you to wrecked corvettes that you get parts from?

[stuck berry]

Only craftable during Expedition 20: Breach, which has ended. You can still encounter those very rarely while piloting a corvette

[gleaming trench]

For ever now (hundred hours or so) I've HAD a "base computer archives" in my mission list, but it never gave any missions and I've been able to delete bases. NOW for some reason every base computer is giving me coordinates, I go, read a bit of space horror, collect a C class recipe, then repeat, but I am unable to delete any bases since they all just give the mission. Will this even eventually end?

[stuck berry]

It ends after 10 cycles of sending you to abandoned buildings

[dry talon]

So, that means that I would have to be pulsing through the system in a corvette?

[gleaming trench]

OK, almost there then. Thanks! At least it's not 16 🫣

[keen wing]

I desactivated it and it fixed the problem, thanks

[stuck berry]

Yes, but it could take an extremely long time without using an Anomaly Detector, and even then would be multiple times more inefficient than other methods like Salvageable Scrap

[hot hound]

I have never seen these "Blessed by..." traits get replaced by anything else. Is this how it currently works?

[silver sentinel]

tried that, made all settings as low as possible and still nothing

[stuck berry]

I'd possibly advise posting in https://discord.com/channels/146101654981312513/964865106334875698 in that case

[silver sentinel]

oh oops wrong channel, ty

[winter wolf]

when you get the maximum number of traits (18) then the oldest traits will start to get overwritten by new ones

[hot hound]

for me, it's either overwriting the trait in the 18th slot, or a specific technology/specialist. never any of the "Blessed by..." trait

[winter wolf]

you may be overwriting blessings with other blessings

[zinc cloak]

You are simply blessed

[hot hound]

lol. thanks for the input guys. seems like people in #no-mans-sky also had problem getting "Blessed by..." traits replaced by something else. I am going to abandon and reclaim and avoid these traits in the future

i am trying to have a settlement that's all Specialist traits

it's coming along slowly

it's chill to see them walk around and hang out in a saloon

[brazen flame]

what is activated copper

[stuck berry]

Copper, but "activated"

[brazen flame]

does it have any benefits

[stuck berry]

it refines into more Chromatic Metal than copper

[brazen flame]

oh

1:1 or

[stuck berry]

and is used in some crafting recipes

[brazen flame]

ah okay

[hot hound]

might them to repair broken slots, but can always fall back to Repair Kits

[midnight shadow]

multiple ores have activated versions

[stuck berry]

Yes, every stellar metal has an activated version

activated stellar metals are exclusive to extreme worlds

[midnight shadow]

I find the most extreme part the not trying to hit a mountain in a storm upon descent lol, once you have plenty of shielding that is

One time i crashlanded into someones ship coz I couldn't see xD I saw the marker, but not that ship

[slate torrent]

im on this nexus mission, is it common to not find any resonators or AI of any sort im flying over this planet like 4 times changing places and nothing at all

wherever i go , my scanner shows:

is it bug ?

im g etting tired of looking for it lol

[midnight shadow]

Is it beeping though? have you tried walking towards it?

[slate torrent]

look for sign down bottom

[midnight shadow]

sometimes when I fly the location suddenly changes for some reason and when I go on foot it stays

[slate torrent]

too weak

t here is no beeping nothing

[midnight shadow]

hmm

[slate torrent]

its like empty planet

with mountains

no resonators or purple AI

anywhere

im feeling like losing time, im cancelling this mission 😄

[midnight shadow]

Yeah not much lost i

i guess

kinda sucks tho

[stuck berry]

On very mountainous planets, they can be a struggle to be found

as they cannot spawn on steel slopes

[slate torrent]

so why scanner failing??

i changed positions on planet like 4 times

2 hemispheres and nothing

mountains planet sucks for missions big time

especiually vile broods on vertical walls lol

: D

[long atlas]

shoot does anyone remember in DREAMS OF THE DEEP the final scan you need to do to locate the fate of the explorers... are you scanning for a sunken building?

[stuck berry]

It should specifically tell you in the lower right

[long atlas]

you mean on the log?

[stuck berry]

No, the mission tooltip

[cobalt lichen]

is photon cannon just stuck on my corvette even tho the only weapon I installed is infra-knife?

[long atlas]

see @stuck berry it says several scans but does not say what KIND of scans. Nauti can scan for a few different things

[stuck berry]

Press C on your keyboard.

It's telling you to generally scan, not for you to use one of the quick menu options

[long atlas]

so just a basic pulse burst instead of the specific scans. heh. thank you. Tricky misison!

[pallid hornet]

is it normal for the vile spawn to hit you so hard you go flying into orbit

[gray shoal]

Sometimes they do that if hit u under right angles

[celest mist]

Is there a way to transfer or build a corvette i built in creative over to my main save?

[stuck berry]

Not without save editing

or just rebuilding it manually

[celest mist]

Alr ty

What about service bot?

[main flame]

I’m having a hard time deciding what to sell and what to keep. Does anyone have a rule of thumb this past week I restarted after not playing for about two years, decided to start fresh, and I’m passed the point of being able to summon the anomaly.

[stuck berry]

You could progress the main story until you get your free freighter, then build all 10 storage containers on it to delay the issue

[gusty vapor]

At my point in the game, I’m only just starting to dip my toes into minerals with 2 or more ingredients. I’ve been selling those “rare” minerals. I also sell almost everything that’s not nailed down.

[stuck berry]

I usually keep one stack of each thing that isn't a trade good

[gusty vapor]

Been trying to remember all of the rules of acquisition.

[gritty atlas]

... kzzkt... New life form here ..kzzkt.....

[nova wyvern]

Yup

[zinc cloak]

What does one do with basalt?

Also is it the rarest raw material in the game?

Maybe cursed dust is rarer?

[midnight shadow]

You need basalt for some upgrade i think

[zinc cloak]

...what do you do with cursed dust also...

[cobalt lichen]

Damn that’s a shame
Hopefully they can fix that soon

[stuck berry]

Either sell it or refine it into Residual Goop

[zinc cloak]

Ok thx. So the entire utility of basalt is just a single upgrade?

[stuck berry]

Pretty much, yeah

it has no refining recipes associated with it

which makes it even less useful than Lithium or Crystallised Helium

[zinc cloak]

That's... disappointing.

[zinc cloak]

Well IK you need those for settlement building upgrades at least...

[stuck berry]

They also have many different refining recipes, unlike Basalt

[midnight shadow]

How many words do you have to learn to pretty much read 90% of what the people are saying?

I'm at around a 100 each and still some sentences make no sense lol

[winter wolf]

each of the languages has around 1000 words iirc

[zinc cloak]

theres about 800 something words for each race

[midnight shadow]

Alright, that's alot

[stuck berry]

You definitely don't need all of them to understand most sentences

[zinc cloak]

you typically learn the most commonly used words first I think, or at least the devs tried to make it that way

[midnight shadow]

Yeah I don't need all of them, but I still have to 1/3 guess alot of the npcs in buildings when they have a request lol

Or the abandoned factories

[winter wolf]

quick count of the in-game Catalogue shows 480 words per species, so my original statement was way off

[zinc cloak]

You still have words to learn. No race has only 480 words

[proper latch]

For corvettes, what can I use for bartering for modules because I used basic modules and they didn’t show up.

[winter wolf]

i have all the gek and autophage words, but all 4 races show 480 in the Catalogue

[stuck berry]

You cannot use the basic selection of modules for bartering

go collect advanced modules to barter

[zinc cloak]

You unlock more pages as you learn words on or beyond those pages

[stuck berry]

you can collect all modules from Salvage Containers on Salvageable Scrap worlds

[midnight shadow]

When I look at the catalogue it looks like I'm missing only 31 words for the gek, seems strange some sentences are still complete gibberish with so little left

[stuck berry]

Then that's not all of them

[midnight shadow]

ahh that makes sense

[stuck berry]

the catalogue word list mostly just shows what you have already

[winter wolf]

when i speak to a gek or autophage, or complete missions for them with words as rewards, it says "nothing new learned"

[zinc cloak]

I unlocked all words of the first three races and all of them had at least 800 words

[stuck berry]

Then maybe they changed something in the last year, because I got all of them and it's 3,822 total for me

[zinc cloak]

and the later-discovered race has 889 words total which I did in this save.

[winter wolf]

i was looking at this. 32 words per page, 15 total pages

i see the count here is different

[stuck berry]

Yes, the actual word list is not very consistent

[zinc cloak]

you just counted the dots at the bottom. there are more pages than that. scroll through them and you'll see the lit dot goes back to the front.

[winter wolf]

what an awful UI

[ember helm]

yeah thats insane

the page indicator must be hardcoded or something

[wet whale]

What's wrong here ?

I've completed many missions from the required Bounty Master, but my rank isn't changing.

[ember helm]

it'll go up eventually

[wet whale]

keep up playing and it will?

[zinc cloak]

Idk that seems like a bug if he's not getting increased standing from the bounty master's missions

[pallid hornet]

Do you have to progress past a certain point in the story to start finding travelers?

[ember helm]

You don't go from 7 to 8 immediately

the last rank takes the most time

[zinc cloak]

Although I've never gone the pirate route myself... are there things you can do to decrease your standing with the outlaws like with the 4 races?

[ember helm]

i dont think so

ive killed pirates many times and im still very high in outlaw

[stuck berry]

You can find them at any time in some space stations/trade outposts, though it's far easier to get the glyphs by completing the main story

[zinc cloak]

oh I see I saw that as get 8 standing points not to rank 8

[nova zealot]

Hiya, I know that it's a bad idea to dupe companion eggs because they'll glitch out, but I am reading that people are able to dupe void eggs using the refiner, is that true?

[stuck berry]

Yes, as Void Eggs do not point to anywhere else in your save file for their data

Void Eggs are regular items basically

[nova zealot]

Cool, thank you!

[stuck berry]

Companion Eggs are items that point to "egg data" slots in your save, so duplicating them doesn't duplicate that data

[winter wolf]

is there a list of materials needed for settlement building upgrades?

[midnight breach]

just got the cracking void egg and the list of names im assumeing are glyphs

idk which ones they are though

[midnight breach]

can anyone help

[stuck berry]

These are the glyphs

this will only work if you are at the point in Starbirth that also says this

[midnight breach]

yea im at starbirth

thank you

[gaunt knot]

how can i edit my base if my game says i don't have a base computer there? btw i can build another

[subtle stag]

how do you unlock the other paint styles in the fabricator?

[vital estuary]

You can raid freighters in pirate systems and your rank still goes up with them.

[stuck berry]

Go to where the icon for the base is, that will be where the Base Computer is

[stuck berry]

They were only obtainable from Expeditions 13 and 17, which can no longer be done

[subtle stag]

< crap

[midnight shadow]

Did I just win the multitool bingo?

😄

[bleak mason]

So im in the Hilbert galaxy do i need to complete stuff to go back to euclid how do i find portal leylines?

[gaunt knot]

um its not on that base only its all bases now

[stuck berry]

Save and reload near the base computer, then you will be able to build things again
See #nms-commands message for info about expanding your base boundary

[worldly isle]

What is every recource at minimum that I need to stock up on in order to charge every single glyph in a portal?

Im getting ready to get all that done hopefully tonight

[midnight shadow]

I don't think charging them is that expensive, like 10-40 each?

some might need double or triple that

at least the ones I've charged during the quest

[worldly isle]

I meant the actual resources. Which specific resources do I need to collect

[stuck berry]

Four options for each type of glyph, to charge all of them you would need:
64 Carbon or 24 Condensed Carbon or 32 Oxygen
32 Sodium or 16 Sodium Nitrate
64 Di-hydrogen or 64 Deuterium or 64 Cobalt or 16 Ionized Cobalt or 64 Salt
64 Copper or 32 Cadmium or 24 Emeril or 16 Indium/Quartzite

[stuck berry]

There are four types of glyphs, each type requires a small amount of basic resources that can be found on all worlds

[worldly isle]

Each of these ammounts will fully charge all 4 glyphs of that type? Or is each of those numbers the ammount to fully charge 1 glyph

[stuck berry]

Each of those amounts to charge all of that type of glyph, so 4 glyphs

Each glyph requires 1/4 of what I listed to be charged

[worldly isle]

Thank you very much for the information Grouch 🙏

[stuck berry]

You can simply use any Teleporter

[tulip dust]

so what is it about this game exactly that makes it impossible to center things? it's like there's an optical illusion where I center something and then I walk around it and it's at the edge of the table. what's up with that?

[winter wolf]

you probably want to ask for tips in #nms-base-building , but i find that using the freecam and looking directly perpendicular to the surface im building on, and maybe using a different item thats easier to center at first then switching before i place, can help

[empty geode]

anyone have coords to the Noggalterpor Galaxy?

[winter wolf]

no coords, you can't portal between galaxies. you'll want to ask for a ride from starcabs

[tulip dust]

yes essentially you'll have to join someone's game who's already there

[tulip dust]

yeah that's what I normally do too, but rn I have a roof and it's ugh lol

I do wonder what exactly it is that causes that tho, like I changed FOV a bunch and it doesn't fix it, it's gotta be something with how the camera works

[stuck berry]

!starcablink @empty geode

[tulip dust]

@empty geode https://discord.gg/WgUdnbZJjh

[empty geode]

Thank yall!

[winter wolf]

the hitboxes on most items are pretty loose, im sure that contributes a lot to the problem

[tulip dust]

it really feels like an optical illusion it's like I bet you could put a bunch of stuff down from one position and it all looks perfect but then you walk away and everything is floating in the air and off balance and asymetrical lol

as it is you basically have to do a circle around anything you place freehand

[subtle stag]

is there only ONE type of HALO wings for fighters?

[stuck berry]

Yes, that is correct

they have no variations within themselves, and there's no "fin" variant

[coral pond]

Anyone know why the Anomaly is just empty all of a sudden? Used to be full of ppl now it's nothing and I'm confused if I fucked with settings or not

[wet sigil]

It would be empty if you have multiplayer turned off, or if you play offline, or, if you are on console, if your multiplayer subscription ran out

Or if the internet is bad

[coral pond]

Subscription?

[wet sigil]

Consoles need to pay to play multiplayer

E.g. Nintendo Online, PS Online ( I think) or Xbox Online (no idea if the Xbox version is called that)

[stuck berry]

PC platforms do not require a subscription to play multiplayer. If you have multiplayer enabled and the Space Anomaly is still empty, refer to #nms-questions message

[coral pond]

OHHHH alr. Yeah I'm PC so I just need to figure out my issue bc it worked before

[cursive summit]

There are also a possibility you might be in a new instance, other instance might be full.

Have you tried leaving the anomaly then re-enter?

[vital estuary]

Ive had it jump instances while in the anomaly before so that can happen, everyone went poof and then a few seconds later a whole new bunch appeared.

[dense rock]

Any idea how to reset/change buildings in settlement... I have base in range and 3 docks and 1 ghost building without terminal

[autumn folio]

Hey guys, whats a fair trade for 40 echo locators, idc about the cost

[cursive summit]

!susmute bat1man

[tulip dust]

@cursive summit

@novel jasper (bat1man) muted indefinitely.

[worldly isle]

Why cant I interact with this Grave even though its one i havent claimed yet?

[stuck berry]

I do not know

[worldly isle]

Im using a public player portal system to get all the glyphs, but it wont let me use it

[stuck berry]

Do you have multiplayer enabled?

[worldly isle]

Yeah

[stuck berry]

Then somebody that is in the same multiplayer instance as you may have interacted with that grave

I am not fully sure if that is the issue, it's definitely not if there are not other players in that star system

[worldly isle]

Thats why I cant interact with it?

Cause there are several other players

[stuck berry]

Most likely

If you are physically able to reach the grave, but cannot interact with it

[knotty bramble]

Uhh... Should I or

[wet sigil]

All settlement starts something like that

[dense rock]

It is any option to move base?

[knotty bramble]

Oh okay, good to know lol, I thought I just got really unlucky

[dense rock]

You can easy outlive this negatives with good perks

[autumn folio]

hey guys, whats the price for 40 echo locators?

Or a good trade

[winter wolf]

ask in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[autumn folio]

Ah, thank you

[worldly isle]

Did they release an update that sort of just ruins the whole player made portal network that leads to free glyphs?

[stuck berry]

No.

The method of reaching graves that were documented by other players still works just as it did when portals were first introduced, and graves have not moved since 2018

[worldly isle]

And I can't interact with basically any of them

There's only been two out of the many portals marked then I could interact with

[stuck berry]

#nms-questions message it may have been because you had multiplayer enabled, which made you download the state of those structures as "claimed"

similar things happen to starship crash sites and multi-tool cabinets

[worldly isle]

Even leaving and rejoining does nothing

[stuck berry]

the state of the graves is saved to your save file's stored interactions

you would either have to revert to a backup to before you reached that system, or seek different graves I believe

there are multiple planets that have had 16 glyph locations documented on them

[worldly isle]

Ive been to every single location in the listed portal network ive found access to

And only 2 or 3 of the glyphs were useable

I am once again stuck when I thought I could have all of the glyphs out of the way

[wet sigil]

Then completing the Artemis quest is your best shot, that doesn't depend on graves being usable

[stuck berry]

Or possibly using a different set of coordinates, with multiplayer disabled (I believe this one has travelers at space stations)

[worldly isle]

Ooh

[stuck berry]

but again, you'll want to complete the main story eventually to unlock the things that only come after it

[worldly isle]

Why do some of them show that you can get more than one from each?

[stuck berry]

There may be more than one traveler aboard those space stations, I'm not sure though

[worldly isle]

Is it possible for there to be multiple in a space station?

[stuck berry]

I believe so

[subtle stag]

what is the poing of gaseous sentinence?

[stuck berry]

To creep you out

[worldly isle]

Do I seriously have to recharge all of the glyphs every single time I wanna use the same portal?

Cause now, it says they're all at 0%. When I just filled all of them

[stuck berry]

Mostly, yes

[worldly isle]

My gosh

[stuck berry]

sometimes the charge remains for multiple uses, it's inconsistent

there are mods on PC that make charging significantly quicker or remove it entirely

[wet sigil]

I use the removal mod

[smoky tapir]

Any idea why someone wouldn't be able to talk to NPCs on an outlaw station during the quest for the shroud?

[stuck berry]

possibly due to a multiplayer bug

[worldly isle]

No traveler in the first one's space station

[stuck berry]

then it may be out of date

or maybe I misinterpreted it

[bold ledge]

I’m in need of some help finding out the combination. ChatGPT is usless

[severe otter]

Whats an automated way to gain ferrite dust?

[frosty loom]

Guys how do I find other players while playing, like not in the anomaly, but like in game

[frosty loom]

Oooh

[stuck berry]

Set up a Mineral Extractor atop a Rusted Metal hotspot, then refine that into Ferrite Dust
See #nms-questions message on how to set up Mineral Extractors/how to find hotspots

[bold ledge]

I appreciate it

[frosty loom]

Anomaly portal code thingy?

[stuck berry]

By going to the same star systems as them. This could easily be done by either joining another player manually via multiplayer, or by using a portal #nms-commands message with the 16 glyphs unlocked #nms-commands message to reach any planet in the galaxy

[frosty loom]

Okie, so any known glyphs thingy for people's place already?

[stuck berry]

many large communities have communal planets that they all set up bases and do stuff on

[frosty loom]

Ooh okie

[bleak mason]

k

[terse meadow]

Mine stayed charged for like over 15 uses in a row now

[stuck berry]

Yes, like I said it is inconsistent

[urban crypt]

useful when you want that. annoying when you want to dial a new destination

[torn crystal]

Do solar panels still generate power on gas giants?

[stuck berry]

Yes, during the day

[snow blaze]

How deep is the atmosphere of a gas giant? Is it just a normal planet inside?

[stuck berry]

There is a surface

[visual ocean]

isn't the "surface" of a gas giant just it's core?

realistically speaking that is, im guessing in-game it's different

also didn't know there are gas giants in this game, thats cool

how rare are they?

[stuck berry]

They aren't very rare, they're just only found in purple star systems which are locked behind the mission "In Stellar Multitudes" which comes after the main story and a few other things #nms-commands message

[visual ocean]

ah well i dont even have the cadmium hyperdrive so its gonna take a while for me to get to one

[plucky flume]

got an anomaly detector, should i hunt for an s class living frigate or should i just take the first one that shows up?

[stuck berry]

Each system only has one class of them, so if you find some specific class of them then you'll only find that class in that system

[plucky flume]

ah i see

[stuck berry]

they level up as they complete expeditions which does increase their class, but their stats do end up being better if they start out at S-Class, unlike normal frigates

[plucky flume]

so if i want to hunt i’d have to jump systems and then use it to find a different one

[stuck berry]

Yes, and you must have already acquired your first living frigate via the Dream Aerial

[plucky flume]

ah so it would be ideal to get c classes for normal frigates and s classes for living ones then

i see, thanks

[plucky flume]

yeah i did this already

[stuck berry]

More info can be found here #nms-commands message

[visual ocean]

oh speaking of anomaly detector, i remember i got and used one yesterday and it found a weird structure/spaceship floating in space but i couldn't really do much with it... So i just left it there lol

[static yew]

How do I get to galaxy 19?

[mossy meteor]

There should be a base that u can portal to to the 19th galaxy in the anomaly if I remember

[stuck berry]

There is a featured base in Isdoraijung that can be teleported to at any time from the Space Anomaly Teleporter

[glad meteor]

The already mentioned methods should work quickly but if you need to go somewhere more unusual next time try the Pangalactic star cabs (they have a discord). They can take you to any galaxy, even in permadeath. I've used them twice - very handy 🙂

[honest dirge]

I backed up my game saves onto Google drive but even if I didn't have them, will they still be there when I reinstall steam? I have to do a clean install of windows or a factory reset

[stuck berry]

They should be in Steam Cloud, if you have that set up

[honest dirge]

Okay good, thanks

[stuck berry]

or downloadable via cross-save if you have that set up

though we are unable to set that up currently due to a website outage/issue

[honest dirge]

I have steam cloud set up, I can no longer play any steam games because...

They wont start up 🙃

And neither will steam, even in offline mode

[static yew]

Thank you guys 🙏🏻

[worldly imp]

Just because of avast says no?

[honest dirge]

More than that, I messed with crap and it lead to cascading failures over 3 days

So my computer is
s breaking down. I can't even do a sys scan anymore

[worldly imp]

Feels like its time for fresh windows

Oh

[honest dirge]

Yep

[worldly imp]

I hope its not ram problems

[visual ocean]

stares at RAM prices

[honest dirge]

This is the game the last time I was able to get into it

[honest dirge]

My ram seems okay so far

[worldly imp]

Could be also cpu or rom

[honest dirge]

I had a look back when I was able to get Cpu-z to function

[worldly imp]

Is your hdd (ssd) old?

[honest dirge]

Nope

Mini PC I got as an Xmas gift

This all started after I messed with a setting in the bios and accidentally disabled secure boot

... After downloading roms and emulators... And an old dos game from Gog,

Couldn't get the visuals for an emulator to work and turned to Google... It told me to go into the bios and change a setting

And here I am

I can't even log in as admin anymore and things keep spontaneously crashing

[worldly imp]

You know you can enter bios without using windows?

And it kept saying my Microsoft password was wrong, so I think something changed it. I tried to restore my account and the support site said my info was wrong too, eventually I got locked out

[honest dirge]

Yes

Thats interesting

[honest dirge]

I reset the bios to default, and reneabled secure boot because that got turned off for some reason

[worldly imp]

It didnt helped?

[honest dirge]

Also set the bios to 8gb as recommended during my trouble shooting session with @bk201

[honest dirge]

It helped a little bit the game was still failing

And so was the pc

[worldly imp]

Cant even tell if reinstalling windows will help

[honest dirge]

Hopefully it will x.x

Tonight I made a new email to link a new Microsoft account to. Now I'm waiting for a USB stick to arrive on the first

Currently keeping the computer turned off and disconnected from the Internet to prevent more problems before I can get the iso from Microsoft

I think I'll factory reset the whole thing

It's a pre built mini PC for gaming

The failures also turned the game from a space adventure into a space horror

And this is why I asked about the save backups, because... Yeah

Anyone know where this ship is I’ve been looking for it for about a hour

YouTube but I think it’s outdated because I can’t find it it’s a sentinel ship

If the galaxy - system and glyph information is in the video - maybe take a screenshot of it and double check where you were looking.

Even with the system and galaxy information the odds of anyone here knowing where to look would be astronomical.
