Teleport to one of your bases, then open the build menu and build it

[alpine ember]

make sure it's toggled in the log

activation of.. mission focus is a thing here.

[coarse atlas]

for some reason the performance of my game seems to degrade the longer i play it, it starts off extremely smooth then when i warp back to my base for example my frames drop a whole lot

[gusty vapor]

How the heck do I find convergence cubes?

[stuck berry]

Purchase them from landed Korvax pilots at trade outposts or aboard freighters in Korvax systems

[gusty vapor]

Ack! Can’t you get them on alien sites or something?

[stuck berry]

Maybe, not sure

a few very random things

[alpine ember]

turn off steam overlay.
im not kidding. 170 hours then i figured it out
alt tab forms memory leaks
worsens within the anomaly with multiplayer on.
new game, within 30 minutes it'll start behaving like a 750ti
I have good hardware but even those with nuclear reactor rigs.. same problem.
vram isn't the issue.
there are thousands of reddit conversations, fragmented despair.
Steam overlay turn it off

[gusty vapor]

I had one…and I sold it. It was a drop from something

[coarse atlas]

thanks man, appreciate it

[alpine ember]

gsynch introduces problems too but i've honed the issue.
i think.

tuned in initially to say

the first step of end-game. nearly there

[coarse atlas]

bro you don't understand what i recently went through with my PC

[alpine ember]

i have 35 years experience both hobby and profession

i believe i do

nt4, that was a laugh

[coarse atlas]

realised that the company that made my prebuilt PC had my ram limited to 2333mhz for the last 4 years

then realised a few days ago i could bump it up to 3200

[alpine ember]

reading processing

[coarse atlas]

all my games have been running like 10 times better, i felt so stupid

[alpine ember]

so 2333 was an undercurrent and 3200 isn't even overclocking

it wasn't U

encouraged the learning tho dinnit

[coarse atlas]

i wanna know how to overclock but i'm not sure

[winter wolf]

off topic

[alpine ember]

equalibrium, depends on the chipset intel vs amd.
pace yerself

[coarse atlas]

ah mb

[alpine ember]

Questions relating to hardware engineering as best they apply to the game.

[thick vigil]

I finally feel good enough to have a mineral base and a gas base. I collect Quartzite and Radon. My question - are there 'better' mats to harvest? Ones that have a more direct impact to parts of the game? (Note, i've beaten the story line and am loving just exploring and constantly finding out new parts of this game)

[alpine ember]

Ziu - you have encountered gas giants and cultivated them?
the gas giant thing is deep into end game i have not gotten there yet.
How many storage containers make sense of the madness?

flourish question

[thick vigil]

Beats me! I just put up 4 gas extractors and one deposit haha. I'm at this part in the game where I'm trying to learn more about it!

[alpine ember]

well into the guts. lurkers please respond.
you'll be teaching us all.

[winter wolf]

im in the (slow) process of building mining outposts for every possible planetary resource according to whats found on this list https://nomanssky.miraheze.org/wiki/Resource_Deposit

if i ever need resources, i dont have to mine anything. i just teleport to my outpost and grab some

many people focus on making mining outposts for the materials needed to craft stasis devices, since they are the most valuable item in the game (in terms of units)

[alpine ember]

the multiplayer aspect. needs work and if this game survives another decade, it'll get it.

forefathers. is now.

nice work dude

Knee jerk reaction aside, im saving that screenie

gotta be careful with distribution u could sue me

[zinc cloak]

Most valuable craftable item in the game. There are things you can get from scrapping high-value starships that sell for more iirc.

[winter wolf]

i didnt make it, i got it from the wiki https://nomanssky.miraheze.org/wiki/Stasis_Device

[alpine ember]

40 mil from A class sentinel.
when you have 500 mil, buying a fistful of upgrades for your S class frigate.
Nanites require work, credits just come.

Stasis device - finding knowledge. as we speak

the wiki doesnt tell us what it does

[winter wolf]

money can be turned into nanites by buying Suspicious Packets from outlaw stations (for units) and selling the contents (for nanites)

[alpine ember]

In No Man's Sky (NMS), Stasis Devices are high-value, complex crafted items primarily used as a significant source of in-game currency (Units) by selling them for millions each;

ffs.. who cares

[winter wolf]

it doesnt do anything, its just for selling

[alpine ember]

well, salvage corvette parts or find sentinel fighters. who cares about a few million

[stuck berry]

It says this in-game, with the "Used for: Trading"

[proven tree]

Question: can someone tell me —why is the 4th hover isn’t operating??

Is this a bug ?

[alpine ember]

Graviton balls when new.. claim corvette salvage when u have one

[stuck berry]

There's just a limit, and that limit includes other wings and stuff in a strange way

[proven tree]

Ugh..

Thanks

[alpine ember]

the power of 3.
4th should operate animation but will not apply

and when it comes to upgrades. 4th will kill all the others

the exosuit doesn't have stats.. but will tell u when u cross the line

[clever creek]

how often can planet sentinel stauts change on its own? I was at a community hub planet that in my memory used to always be paradise but suddenly turned into high sentinel this time

[alpine ember]

there is also an adjacent bonus.. when u stack them.
i still dont understand its logic but it's true

[stuck berry]

That only changes based on your selected On-Foot Combat difficulty option

Paradise Planet/Moon is just a name given to lush worlds that have low sentinel activity and no storms

[alpine ember]

usually the catch is bubbles or grav storms

[stuck berry]

so increasing On-Foot Combat makes more lush worlds not show as that

[clever creek]

I never changed my on foot combat difficulty

[stuck berry]

Then most likely the player who documented it was on a lower difficulty option, and did not know

[alpine ember]

the continuity of a planet doesn't change. unless altercation applies to client operational standard. i do not know

[stuck berry]

or you were previously

[clever creek]

huh 🧐

ill go ask others to check

[zinc cloak]

Wait I think I may be wrong... did starship AI valves used to be worth more? Or was there a more valuable form of scrap that was removed from the game?

[alpine ember]

AI valves are worth the most.. ive noticed. wasn't here before. still worth more than.
was there a more valuable form?

[stuck berry]

Starship AI Valves say they were worth 50 million before Waypoint

they are now worth 12,000,000, which is less than Stasis Devices and Fusion Ignitors

but they stack far higher

[zinc cloak]

That may be what I was thinking of.

[stuck berry]

And of course it is not very easy to collect a lot of them, compared to Stasis Devices and Fusion Ignitors with the correct infrastructure

[vital estuary]

I forgot to look what some of the scrap is worth when I sentinel ship hunt...

[alpine ember]

When fallout 76 (off topic) came out. i abandoned it after 30 minutes. 5 years later i returned.
It's taken longer with NMS.
Empyrion as much time as i spent with it.
Having felt the dream since day one way back when.
And being told that star citizen is still a demo.
Emp is grand, this is better.
F76 is 100 times better than it was and so is, No Mans Sky.
Those of you that have evolved with it.
And stuck by it since day one.
I bend the knee.

I absolutely can catch up but only mentally.
Following the steam awards last year, we approach the true, second chapter.
Corvettes helped. im able to flourish the game with console gamers wondering oh wow.
drawing them back to it too.

that was objectivity, subjectivity i want a sentinel corvette i was so impressed.

At least it gets used more than basalt...
A few of the refiner recipes for it can be useful if you are short on other gasses, as well as a few other things.

[stoic vale]

Thought I would post this again as I didnt get an answer before - Is there a way to tell what kind of lore will be on a derliect freighter (Korvax/Gek/Vykeen or no race), just by scanning? I dont really want to have to explore more freighters than I have to to complete all the logs, and being able to skip the exploring part if its the wrong race will speed me up a lot!

[muted blaze]

Hello guys,
A question with probably no clear answer, but still: are freighter daily missions totally random? or are there sets of missions tied to particular systems? do they change over time between the systems? I never paid attention to mission names.
I mean I found a system which gave me 12 spawning sacs over 3 days. Will the same missions pop up every now and then in the system indefinitely or will this set of missions move to another system one day?

[wet sigil]

AFAIK the missions are deterministic, as in everyone in the same star, at the same time, would receive the same missions, and every star has its own set that, if you stayed long enough, their missions will start repeating. Whether the rewards would be the same after a repeat, I don't know, but I know the rewards for the same missions on the same day will be the same, so leads me to believe the rewards are also deterministic. I.e. I would probably stay in that system and observe the spawning sacs in subsequent days

[muted blaze]

Thanks

[clever creek]

if I get a living frigate with absolutely horrendous stats, can I get usable stats with rerolling or will they always be low?

[wet sigil]

You can roll with food for the perks it gets, but the base stats will not change

If you absolutely want better stats, you may want to hunt for higher ranked living frigates, their base stats will be a lot higher and will still grow with number of expeditions done

[dim plaza]

jesus christ freighters freaking suck

ive been trying to hunt some high class ones and they're all just C classes

any way to improve my strategy?

my current strat is hopping from system to system with high conflict levels to get them

[wet sigil]

If you are hunting for S class in outlaw systems, that is normal, C class has 85% chance to appear

The only real way to improve your strategy is using corvette, since you can check a freighter's class by space walking and aiming your visor at it

[finite zenith]

When it comes to building my main permanent planetary base, should I look for a world that's near 100% perfect on the wonders tab or is there a certain type of planet that's more beneficial to inhabit long term than a perfect planet?

[vague geode]

@dim plaza Do you have a particular style freighter you're hunting or just any S class?

[vague geode]

You have to set the criteria for yourself. I don't live planet side when I play NMS so having a base on a perfect planet means little to me. I can visit other players resorts and get that experience when I want it.

[finite zenith]

fair enough

[dim plaza]

just any S class cuz lowkey if I was hunting style it would take 40 years

[wet sigil]

Make sure you are doing it in either economy level 3 or black market economy

Not level 1 (impossible) or level 2 (1% of S rank only)

[dim plaza]

its so hard to find a level 3 eco even with eco scanner

[wet sigil]

Level 3 is fairly rare yea, level 2 is more common

But still, level 3 or black market is worth the time to look for

[dim plaza]

what's S class chance there

[wet sigil]

2% for level 3, 5% for black market

[dim plaza]

so evil chance

[wet sigil]

If you don't want to hunt for S rank, then leave it until later, having a freighter is like 80% of the benefit, s rank won't be that useful unless you have the freighter techs and cargo bulkheads to make use of it

[dim plaza]

I dont have many freighter tech, how do you suggest I unlock them?

[vague geode]

Feels that way sometimes.

I like to look in tier 3 economy and conflict systems as well as Outlaw dissonant systems for pirate dreadnaught battles. When I find them I check to see if they are systems that battles always happen in. You find 2 and you can warp back and forth between them.

Great thing about that is - if you have the units - you can check the dreadnaught and capital ship each trip.

[wet sigil]

The freighter technology tree is a pita, you need to keep looking out for missions and envoys that give the frigate modules. The freighter tech upgrades are easier, destroying any freighter drops S ranks for freighter

[dim plaza]

also how do I defeat a deathnought

[wet sigil]

If you want to just destroy it, destroy all the shield generators (10 in total) by flying into its trenches, then destroy the fuses that come out of the shield generator, then shoot the hull until dead

[vague geode]

To get them to surrender - take out the engines in the rear first so they can't escape. Then either take out the anti-freighter guns on the deck or the shield generators in the trenches then do damage to the ship.

[dim plaza]

will there be like a message that they surrendered

[wet sigil]

Yes

[dim plaza]

ok good

[wet sigil]

Once they surrender, you can claim them as your Freighter

[vague geode]

And if it doesn't meet with your approval demand tribute. Not a bad way to make units.

[dim plaza]

also what was that nms ship finder website

[vague geode]

No Man's Sky Coordinates Exchange?

[wet sigil]

NMSCE

But be ware that you would need all 16 portal glyphs unlocked to make full use of the coordinates

[dim plaza]

yes that

[errant lion]

do i need a bigger screen than 27" to enjoy nms to its fullest?

[wet sigil]

No more than any other game

[errant lion]

i feel like my whole wall needs to be nms

with no light entry and no windows lol

[dim plaza]

oh also how do you do the base expansion thing after making a small base

[wet sigil]

I have a 49" monitor, but was not for NMS, it came much later

[errant lion]

ah yes so i need a bigger screen

not decide i am asking if yall have massive screens lol @vague geode

also i make my own decisions lol

[wet sigil]

I bought a bigger screen because I want a 4k monitor, nothing to do with NMS, I only started playing NMS years after I got that screen

[errant lion]

but intuitively you were like yeah bigger screen = more epic nms lol

totally buying a screen tomorrow lol

[wet sigil]

If you want to take it as that, be my guest, just wanna say NMS has nothing to do with it, as the decision was made years before I even bought the game

[dim plaza]

no i mean the quest for it

after you get it

how do you actually do it after going to the planetary base

[vague geode]

You should get a prompt to start adding specialist stations to your base then finding and hiring NPCs to become a part of your base operations. You hire one for each type of station you will be asked to install,

[dim plaza]

and I have to do all of that for the artemis quest

[wet sigil]

Nope

I didn't do any of the specialists quests until well after Artemis quests had concluded

[dim plaza]

but ghosts of the machine requires expansion

[wet sigil]

Just that is needed

You don't need to complete the side quests all the way through

[dim plaza]

gosh darn it

[wet sigil]

I think you only just need to get to the point of having one specialist stationed in your base

[misty star]

So I have only one save file and that is on mormal mode

i wanna try creative mod but dont want to grind again lol for all the unlocks

is there any way i can convert the normal o creative mode?

May bea save file editor

[wet sigil]

If you start the game on creative mode, everything will be unlocked

Apart from those tied to quests, those you will have to do

I.e. the purple stars

[misty star]

and what about my main quest progression?

[wet sigil]

You will start from the beginning

Though you will have all the portal glyphs from the very start

[misty star]

ooof

[wet sigil]

You can make your main save to act as if it is creative by changing the shop cost to free, though it doesn let automatically unlock everything, you just won't have to pay anything to unlock them

[misty star]

How can I do that?

also in Creative mode, are there no crafting requitements ?

[wet sigil]

It's in the options under difficulty

[wet sigil]

Correct, basically everything is free. Except when making starships, you still need to supply the parts, but corvette you can do whatever

[misty star]

sweeeeeet

Thank you so much mate

[dim plaza]

should I witness glyphs

[wet sigil]

Do you have a screen shot?

[dim plaza]

I witnessed all 3 glyphs

im at a portal

what do i do

in nevros

my quest rn is leap in the dark

I got two options

input glyphs or turn back

[plucky flume]

for me i put the glyphs in, completely forgot what that did

[dim plaza]

i read somewhere that you cant do these quests again

and I wanna make the right strategical choice

so I can get to see more stuff

[plucky flume]

i quite literally just completed artemis quest lmao, don’t think the choices change things that much

well aside from the final one

[wet sigil]

It ultimately doesn't matter except at the purge

[dim plaza]

huh okay

ill talk here again when I reach the purge

[plucky flume]

have fun

[dim plaza]

ok idk if this is the purge but I got teleported to atlas and I got two choices

||perform diagnostic or wipe system||

[plucky flume]

the purge is a quest after leap in the dark

[granite sail]

Hello, what is rebuilt exo suit module?

[dim plaza]

oh I guess im at the end

[wet sigil]

Do you have a screenshot?

[dim plaza]

im scared

there so many cutscenes my pc will explode

[granite sail]

Leme get one, wait

[wet sigil]

That's the autophage version of the life support modules you can get from sentinels, exact same stats

#nms-questions message

Here is one sample of it

[granite sail]

Oooooooo icic thanks

[dim plaza]

uh is my game bugging

I made the mind ark but artemis won't take it

[alpine ember]

turn it off and on again

[dim plaza]

I did

[wet sigil]

What does your quest log say?

[alpine ember]

during a storm on a very unfriendly planet

yeah click the quest on the log

activation doesn't toggle the win unless, activated

[dim plaza]

null the first stranger, the space anomaly and atlas path

[alpine ember]

make sure the quest is togged.
beyond this advise...

toggled

[dim plaza]

OH

I think it works now

[alpine ember]

it's segmented. toggle means alot

lazy coding but it works

[dim plaza]

I finished the story and

peter griffin crying and clapping gif

anyways how to find good multitools

[muted spruce]

Hi, I’m on the main storyline and have just started the mission to retrieve the encryption key from the downed freighter. My only problem is that all 6 cargo containers contain Faecium and Pink Slime. No key at all. Do I need to restart the mission? I’m not sure if I’m supposed to take the Faecium and Slime to activate finding the key.

[wet sigil]

Try interacting with the computer in the middle of the wreck, it's a white ball like thing on top of a container

Also make sure you use the container a second time, it seems like you just took the items in the interface and left the cargo containers

[signal cedar]

the slime and other shit from container is what blocks the opening mechanism

You repair that by removing those elements, then you get access to actual container content

one of these containers should give you the needed encryption key

[wet sigil]

This also applies to containers with the rusted metal

[solid oasis]

NOT life support modules. They can have the life support bonuses but they can have many things, they are NOT life support modules. They are additional all purpose modules that stack with other modules. Their biggest value isn't stacking more life support, it's stacking more shielding bonuses...you can have 3 exosuit shield modules, 3 sentinel modules, and 3 autophage modules all with +34% shield bonus...at that point you become borderline untouchable...it becomes very hard for enemies to break through your shields.

[wet sigil]

^ @granite sail

[granite sail]

OHHHHHH so it's like a 3 in 1 module type of module

[wet sigil]

Basically, yes

But it has a very big stat variation

[solid oasis]

Yeah they behave kind of like X class modules even though they are yellow like S and their class is !, so their bonuses can be all over the place. Worth noting that they have the same properties and stat pool as sentinel exosuit modules and share the same seed progression as sentinel modules.

[dim plaza]

should I be pirate or no

[wet sigil]

You can if you want to

[dim plaza]

are there strategical benefits to it

[wet sigil]

How should I put it?

If you pirate without any thought, there isn't TOO much negative consequence to pirating even though your reputation with the races can tank, though not something you can't come back from (pretty easy actually)

If you pirate "carefully", you can achieve max rank in outlaws without suffering any drawbacks

Though there isn't much benefit to maxing out outlaw rep apart from MAYBE some missions might ask for its rep, but yeah

Though you do occasionally get the frigate modules that you need to unlock freighter techs, so there's that.

[dim plaza]

can any cosmetics be unlocked from it

[wet sigil]

Nope

[dim plaza]

aw

[wet sigil]

At least not as far as I know

There might be a few titles, but nothing much beyond that

[dull ibex]

i found the lair of a titan worm, what do i do? do i need to bring something?

there are multipe 😮

[solid oasis]

There are player tittles you can unlock by increasing your standing with with pirates. Admiral of the Black is a pretty awesome one to have.

[dim plaza]

oh alright

do i just become pirate by missions or anything else?

[wet sigil]

There is no technical role for being a pirate. doing missions that involve only bounty hunting would increase outlaw standing and the dominant race standing, missions that involve killing trade convoys and freighters would increase outlaw but decrease dominant race

[dull ibex]

sometimes sad even in massive caves u cant find the creature :/

[granite sail]

Hello, is there a pic/excel for highest stats you can get in X movement system module?

[gray shoal]

In game catalouge technology section

[granite sail]

Thank you

[stuck berry]

Though that only shows four of the six possible stats

[granite sail]

Oooo

[gray shoal]

Others are in earlier class

[stuck berry]

Yes, but those are the stat numbers for earlier classes

[gray shoal]

Bc stats are the same

[stuck berry]

Here are the stats for the other stats

[ionic pond]

is there a way to "guarantee" a S class staff?

[stuck berry]

Upgrade one from a lower class to S-Class

[granite sail]

Ooooo this is much more helpful, thank you very much

[ionic pond]

other than that theres no way of knowing like with normal MTs im assuming?

[stuck berry]

There is no way, unless you already have knowledge of what is in the system

Like if you have found where you can build one before

[granite sail]

Why is there a 100 after 235?

[stuck berry]

Because that is the lower end of X's range for that

[ionic pond]

luckily the free staff i got from the quest was A class, so shouldnt take too long to upgrade it to S class... thanks!

[granite sail]

Ic

[stuck berry]

I was going to mention, the classes are cut off in my screenshot but I got them from here https://nomanssky.miraheze.org/wiki/Exosuit#Technology_Upgrades

[deft current]

Are there know issues or bugs with the Snap Points of the newer Base building parts..? Bc i had some difficulties recently building.. Btw, what do the parts with the two lines = symbol mean..?

[stuck berry]

Two lines symbol means there are variants of that part that you can force by hovering over it and pressing the View Variants button

I do not believe any newer base building parts have any new placement issues, only those that have existed for a very long time and affected old parts already

[deft current]

Oh, i missed that, ty.. I had a ton of issues with the narrow stairs not placing.. and other oddities..

[stuck berry]

Yes, short ramps all share that issue

They count as occluding with walls and floors placed next to them in certain orientations

[deft current]

..um, narrow full length.., shorties were ok for me..

[stuck berry]

It is better to free-place them in most cases where they become problematic

[deft current]

..ik some players are magic at free placement but i'm aweful at that skill, lol.. ty for info, gd!

( I posted some pics over at #nms-base-building just now 🙂 )

[finite cove]

is it possible for settlements to become self sufficient (ie, 0 maintenance cost)?

[stuck berry]

Yes, that is often one of the first major milestones you reach with them, making their productivity exceed their maintenence costs

[swift sand]

i think they meant getting to actual maintenance=0

[finite cove]

this lol

[swift sand]

used to be possible before beacon, i havent played settlements enough after beacon to get one to 0 as well

that said, i have been able to get it quite low, around 200k, i assume that it might still be possible, but maybe not all settlements will be able to

[finite cove]

I have 100% happiness but I my maintanence cost is like 50% of my productivity

[swift sand]

hap is possible to stack well over 100, near 200% actually

[finite cove]

🤯

[swift sand]

look at settlement buildings that you might not yet have upgraded at all; those sometimes carry a maintenance debuff before we upgrade them

[finite cove]

ahhhhh of courseeeee

[swift sand]

otherwise, just try to focus on decisions/outcomes that focus on lowering maintenance

[finite cove]

brilliant, tysm

[stuck berry]

It's still possible, I've reached it on most of my settlements

[swift sand]

🙂

there you go, it can be done @finite cove

[alpine ember]

hey guys i need some help how to fix this

[swift sand]

try to save+reload to refresh teleporter list: interact again, do you still see the base on the list? try again

[vital estuary]

Out of my 4 settlements my Gek one has 0 maintenance, only about 2 months old and hit that point very early on even before a lot of the buildings were fully upgraded. Produces faster than the others that have actual maintenance it seems.

So yes, still possible but I think a few things need to align for that to happen.

[swift sand]

yeah, kinda why i said that perhaps not all settlements may able to, but that adds a good point, their particular evolution path might allow more progress towards a stat sooner than others

[vital estuary]

I really wish I had taken note of what features/debuffs it had at the start, because it just seemed very easy to get it to 0.

[alpine ember]

hey it didn’t work

i still cannot download bases

[swift sand]

goto discoveries menu, lower left, is the connection to ODS active?

[alpine ember]

yes

[swift sand]

what teleporter are you using, anomaly's or other?

[alpine ember]

the one in my base i also tried the space station one

[swift sand]

so you still saw the same base on the list? so most likely you're just looking at a cached base in your save file. do this:

• disable multiplayer in options/network settings,
• goto a different system, where there's no other player bases at all, then save,
• completely restart the game, then return to your current system, and interact again: do you still see that same base?

[swift sand]

no worries, it's not like it comes out of our pockets anyway

[alpine ember]

ok i disabled multiplayer now i only see this so now i restart my game so cause im on xbox u mean quit the game then open back up?

[swift sand]

ah okay so wait, if you disabled multiplayer and that base disappeared, were you playing in a system with other players?

[alpine ember]

yes i was i was playing with my mate trying to tele to his base

[swift sand]

that will only work if you're using a teleporter in the same system the base is in, and if the base isnt' uploaded, the owner must be in the base' system as well.

[alpine ember]

yes he is in that base and im in the space station right now

[swift sand]

but in the station of the same system?

[alpine ember]

im in a singleplayer match i only see my base and my space stations

before i was in a join friends system

sorry im new to the game

[swift sand]

no, but i mean, the teleporter you're currently using, or were trying to use at first, is it in the same system as your mate's?

[swift sand]

nothing to be sorry about; i'm the one who should be sorry for not having picked this route of troubleshooting first 😄

[alpine ember]

i was using the tele from my base first

[swift sand]

remember what i said here:

that will only work if you're using a teleporter in the same system the base is in, and if the base isnt' uploaded, the owner must be in the base' system as well.

[alpine ember]

it is uploaded it just says cannot download base

[swift sand]

for that to work, you must be using a teleporter in the same system the base is in already. are you?

[alpine ember]

i can go to my base and use that tele

[swift sand]

is your base in the same system as your mate's, the one you're trying to teleport to?

[alpine ember]

yeah

[swift sand]

1. sounds like some kind of network issue if you were in a group to begin with: rejoin group from main menu, making sure they're already in the system, then try teleporting again, using station teleporter for example
2. if that didn't do the trick, ask friend to restart their game as well
3. finally, they could try to upload the base, but it could take up to 24h for it to become available to you (and other players who might visit), even if the owner is offline, or for some reason game fails to download base directly from them

[zinc cloak]

I just found an uninitialized base computer on a planet I discovered just now in a system I discovered just now... did someone place it and never upload their discoveries or is it possible for unclaimed base computers to be generated on the planet?

[swift sand]

nah, just a possible game generated POI, aka wild base computer

a feature from days past basically

[zinc cloak]

ok cool

[swift sand]

but still possible to find, and often really nice locations

[zinc cloak]

it's on flattened terrain but it's on a toxic and infested planet... maybe someone would consider it a nice location...

[alpine ember]

hey @swift sand it still says unable to download base so does he have to remove his base then reupload it

[dim plaza]

is the anomaly anomalous? (not a joke, cuz when I was near an anomalous freighter it had this slowing down effect but the anomaly doesnt)

[swift sand]

not remove, just try to upload it - then try again tomorrow. interact with base comp, when base computer archives mission isn't selected in the mission Log, press upload base

[swift sand]

a slowing down effect? you mean when approaching the anomaly, head on?

[dim plaza]

no like when you enter an anomalous freighter it slows down and you cant jetpacj

but in the anomaly you can jetpac

[alpine ember]

ummmm @swift sand there was an invisible button i held A then mates base popped up in favourites and i can warp to his base

[swift sand]

ah, that's because it's a derelict freighter mission debuff

[dim plaza]

ohh

[swift sand]

huh.. that's unexpected! 😄

[alpine ember]

🤣

i knowwww

i was like huhhhh

but besides that Thank You for the help 🫡

[swift sand]

hmm, quite odd, but i'll keep this in mind. an invisible button, okay. but you could see like the border of the button box or something?

[alpine ember]

NOPE

[swift sand]

i dont think i helped at all 😅 but yeah, always glad to try to at least

[alpine ember]

legit hovering my cursor on it and it looked like a button so i held A and it favorited his base 🤣

[swift sand]

so it was the add to favorites button probably, or..

[alpine ember]

yes

but invisible 🤣

[swift sand]

okay so "add to favorites, try to teleport again", gotcha. 😂

[alpine ember]

🤣 yeah broo but appreciate the help your a legend i was googling and youtubing and everything

[swift sand]

always feel free to drop by when you're feeling stuck 🫡

[dim plaza]

what are abandoned systems

ik they're abandoned but

more stuff about them and how they work pls

[stuck berry]

They're like inhabited systems but lack all inhabited structures, with only abandoned buildings, empty trade outposts, crashed starships and monoliths/plaques/ancient ruins remaining

they always have a tier 1 economy, and lack conflict data

I believe one planet in each abandoned system will lack the fauna that it normally has

[dull ibex]

Hello, found this but i how do i determine what S-class tools are worth investing in

[zinc cloak]

If you like how it looks, it's worth investing in. Even if it isn't S class, you can always upgrade it. So I always go by subjective appeal. I've seen a chart of the different types of multitools but I don't have it. Someone here probably does tho...

[steel folio]

Ideally you hope they show their SuperCharge slots upon initial inspection, but unless you're min-maxxing, I'd just recommend grabbing something if you like the look of it

Can always swap if you find one you like better

[zinc cloak]

I would def keep that one tho as exotics are rare and you can always store extra multitools in the multitool archive if you want more than the 6 you can carry at once.

[dull ibex]

aight okay thanks all for the advice

[dull ibex]

So u can upgrade an A to S?

[wet sigil]

Yes, tools and starships are upgradeable

[zinc cloak]

Yes at the multitool upgrade station aboard space stations, for 50,000 nanites.

[stuck berry]

The cost depends on the current class and the chosen difficulty option

[dull ibex]

ooh nice, really good to know

and u can buy charged slots as well?

[stuck berry]

One supercharged slot is added for each class reached

[dull ibex]

aha okay

[stuck berry]

with S-Class things having four supercharged slots

The supercharged slots can appear in yet-to-be unlocked slots

[wet sigil]

But you can't choose your SC slots, nor can you purchase any extras directly

[zinc cloak]

They're always in the top three rows though right?

[stuck berry]

Only for starships and freighters

for multi-tools, it's more complicated but they can also appear in the fourth row

[zinc cloak]

hmm ok thx for the knowledge

[dull ibex]

also, i found some ships i want to sell, but in the trade center i dont see how to swap my own ship with another one? and i do have a fleet

[wet sigil]

Starship?

[dull ibex]

if i want to summon it, it says its damaged

[stuck berry]

You can salvage starships at the Starship Outfitting Terminal, then sell the scrap for units

[dull ibex]

so how do i sell it without repairing?

[stuck berry]

See #nms-questions message

[zinc cloak]

wdym the trade center? usually you swap ships with an npc directly.

[stuck berry]

By summoning it #nms-questions message, then either repairing the Launch Thruser and Pulse Engine to be able to fly it to the space station or summon it there, or just teleport to the space station with it as your primary starship

[dull ibex]

abbandond ships

[dull ibex]

ah so first build a base and teleporter?

[wet sigil]

If you haven't already have a base, yes

Generally having a base is a good idea anyway, even if a very simplistic one

[stuck berry]

If you somehow fully lack a base to go to, yes. If you already have at least one base already, you can teleport to it using any teleporter. Know that a base does not require a teleporter to be teleported to

[dull ibex]

but wont i be back in another solar system? :/

[stuck berry]

You can teleport back to where you wish to be

[dull ibex]

ah good to know, thanks

[stuck berry]

Also, the star system that you salvage a starship in does not matter

unless you wish to trade it for a specific starship that you saw before

[dim plaza]

UHH

I FELL THRU GROUND

WHAT DO I DO

[stuck berry]

Where are you?

Like on a planet, in a space station, aboard a freighter?

[dim plaza]

planet

[stuck berry]

Then you'll most likely snap back up

[dim plaza]

are you sure?

[zinc cloak]

Assuming that where you wish to be isn't a new space station and you have the bug where space stations aren't appearing in your teleport options

[stuck berry]

Yes, if it doesn't happen you can just reload autosave/restore point

[dim plaza]

it worked

thx

[stuck berry]

That is true

[dim plaza]

It shouldn't

[dim plaza]

what do I do

cuz this will take forever

[stuck berry]

What part is it stuck on?

[dim plaza]

portal warping animation

[stuck berry]

You could possibly restart the game

[dim plaza]

huh okay

i should give my pc a break for now

[vast sphinx]

Newbie question. I am using this layout as a guide. What are the 3 modules around the Shield Lattice?

[stuck berry]

They are autophage upgrades, earnable after the mission They Who Returned is completed #nms-commands message

Also keep in mind that many modules in this layout are unobtainable or fully unnecessary

[vast sphinx]

Thank You, I'll look into them. Thanks again

[stuck berry]

At the end of The Atlas Path, you only get either the Star Seed or Mark of the Denier, never both (attempting to get both can break future missions)

The Visceral Synthesizer, Archive Override Implant and Anomaly Surpressor were mechanics related to previous Community Expeditions, they are fully useless outside of those and can't normally be obtained outside of them

Also, only the A and S-Class translators are necessary as they alone reach the maximum allowed stat for that. Also the Rocket Boots are a subjective option to use, they add a large delay between jetpack input and jetpack activation that many find cumbersome

[wet sigil]

Speaking of the techs. Personal shield tech will only provide adjacency to Sentinel and Autophage techs if the latter has Core/Shield, right?

[stuck berry]

I believe so

[wet sigil]

Do they only provide adjacency for those stats, or for all other stats too?

[stuck berry]

All stats I believe

[flint ruin]

How does NMSCE work if im trying to find a specific ship

Starship and freighter

[stuck berry]

By just inputting the parts you wish to search for, then searching

[flint ruin]

Does it take me to a random planet then i have to search the planet in hopes the ship will spawn

[stuck berry]

For Fighter, Hauler, Explorer, Shuttle, Solar and Exotic starships, they can be found as any NPC starship in that star system

so find a trade outpost and wait for it to land

[flint ruin]

Ok, what about for freighters

[stuck berry]

For "system" freighters, they spawn passively around space, boost around and wait for them to spawn

For capital freighters, see #nms-questions message
For capital freighterspirate dreadnoughts that have the "Guaranteed Event" tag, just warp out and back into the system, given you already own a freighter and have encountered tow rescue events so far

[nova wyvern]

No it gives you the location and then you can go in game and find that ship

[viral wind]

I want to put this feeder down. It says I have all the materials to craft it but up top is says I have 0 avialable? Please advise.

Sorry available to build is lower right bottom of the crafting card.

[nova wyvern]

Try reloading the game

[analog scroll]

Is it your base?

[nova wyvern]

That fixes most of these random problems

[viral wind]

Thanks fellas. I'll try restarting.

[dim plaza]

||i got three choices, complete the atlas path, seek the final interface or explore the galaxy.||

Seek the final interface

[dim plaza]

okay

It doesn't matter which one you pick, though

All it does is set your primary mission, you can always change it

<:info:850810445577453658> No Man's Sky - The Purge Story Mission

📖 Did you know? The Purge is the final story mission in the Artemis Path

⚠️ To complete The Purge, you do not need to travel through the Core

The tooltip for The Purge asks you to progress toward the core, not to reach it

It should be noted ||that even that is not necessary||

Pick a direction and warp. 16 warps in total are required for The Purge. Be sure you pause for a few seconds in each new system.

Now is a great time to complete The Atlas Path as well. The warps will count for both missions.

By the 16th warp, ||you will want to either store installed tech from your suit, ship, and multi tool or swap to an unused ship and tool or find outlaw systems along the way and purchase Repair Kits. A Repair Kit will be necessary if you complete this mission in a Sentinel Interceptor||

dang 16

that will take a while

[analog scroll]

Not at all

[dim plaza]

can you warp back and forth

good

[vital estuary]

Was about to say you can do that.

[dim plaza]

oh lol

[viral wind]

restarting didn't work. Still can't place this....

[analog scroll]

Are all of those materials in your exosuit?

[viral wind]

Yep!

I think the "Available to build: 0" has some meaing.

[viral wind]

*meaning

[stuck berry]

Do you already have any Automated Feeders built at that base?

[viral wind]

Nope I've just learned to craft it. It's my first time settingit down.

[stuck berry]

And this is within the radius of your own base, "Oxygen Farm 1"?

[viral wind]

It is a bit away but I'll place it closer to my base computer.

[analog scroll]

Oxygen Farm 1 is your base, is the question

[viral wind]

correct

[viral wind]

I just tried to place it right next to the oxygen 1 base computer.

[wet sigil]

and your oxygen 1 base is not overlapping with any other base?

[viral wind]

It's possible.... I do have two bases on this planet. But the other one is quite some distance I can provide you the exact distance

[wet sigil]

if it is over 2000u away it's not that

Question, how many bases do you have on that save?

[viral wind]

checking base count now.

[viral wind]

18 bases

[wet sigil]

And none of them are super built up type of bases?

(just checking if you used up your base furniture quota)

[viral wind]

No very low.

[earnest musk]

How do I get upgrades for my living ship?????

[wet sigil]

For the upgrade techs, you can try pulsing around in living ship, you may get events that give you them. Otherwise frigate expeditions with at least 1 organic frigate in your squad also has a chance to drop psychontic eggs that gives those upgrades.

For storage, frigate expeditions with at least 1 organic frigate in your squad also has a chance to drop Spawning Sacs, and that is the only way to get storage.

[stuck berry]

It would say "Construction Limit Reached" if that was the case

[earnest musk]

I don’t have a organic frigate been trying to get something to help me get them but no luck day 5 of trying

[analog scroll]

You need a dream aerial. It's a random loot blueprint that comes from frigate missions. You only need it for the first frigate

[earnest musk]

Yeah I’ve been trying to get one but no luck just sent them back out won’t know for another 8 hrs

[wet sigil]

Until then, you are pretty much stuck

[earnest musk]

That I believe

I don’t wanna use any ship but my living but it got no upgrades 😔

[dim plaza]

what are first spawn relics

I have 10 of them in my inventory and I dont remember when I got them

[gray shoal]

Contraband i think. U can sell them

[wet sigil]

Just out of pure curiosity, do you have the livestock unit bluepring unlocked?

[dim plaza]

so evil

[vague plinth]

what’s the meta for making units right now

[gray shoal]

Yes

[analog scroll]

Whichever method(s) you prefer. !faq-units in #nms-commands will give you the more popular ones

[zinc cloak]

I just decided to do the math and realized the re-latticed arc crystal is 5% more not 0.5% more... is this a common error in NMS? Any idea what's causing it?

[stuck berry]

Have you recently sold those to this galactic trade terminal?

If so, it reduces the value for them for future sales

[zinc cloak]

No, it's just a system on the worse side of purchasing deals. Even if I had, the % should adjust to still match right?

I wouldn't sell a trade product to a system that's already selling it. that's a waste.

[spring whale]

Hey, is there an infographic or chart for the bio domes? So i know how much you'll get from each plant?

Awesome, thank you!

[zinc cloak]

So... at one point I remember being in my corvette, saving a freighter from pirate starships, being called to get a reward. Normally, there is a bug where if you were in a corvette, when you talk to the captain he acts like you didn't just save him. However, one time I did something different apart from the usual 'beam down to freighter' then 'teleport to the control room' and I can't remember what it was, but the bug didn't occur and I got my reward, despite being in a corvette. At the time I thought "Oh, the bug has been fixed", and went about my business. Now that I've done this again and the bug occurred as usual, I realize it wasn't fixed, and it must've been whatever weird thing I did that bypassed the bug. The problem is, I CANT FREAKIN REMEMBER what I did... Do any of you have any ideas? I'm racking my brain to no avail...

[weary zodiac]

For the life of me I can't find the needed items for this.
Any ideas?

[zinc cloak]

Have you unlocked the purple systems yet?

Purple as in not the blue systems. I'm not that colorblind.

[weary zodiac]

Pretty sure just got done with the Atlas Path did the 16 warps.

[zinc cloak]

Bc you can only find those materials in purple systems, and the crystalized helium is only found on gas giants, which are only found in some purple systems

[analog scroll]

Both of those are prerequisites, neither of those unlock the systems. To to your catalog and look at the Autophage. Screenshot what is there, if anything

[zinc cloak]

You haven't unlocked purple systems yet.

[weary zodiac]

How do I unlock the purple systems then?

[tulip dust]

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!

Shared by: tyndall_ Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[zinc cloak]

go to a dissonant planet, kill some corrupted sentinels until you get an echo locator. Use the echo locator, and you should be able to find your way from there If you keep playing the game normally after that, the quest will trigger eventually.

[zinc cloak]

The last bit of info on this isn't a good idea right now since there's a bug preventing new space stations you visit from being added to the teleport options. So just... don't go far or teleport to where you can't find your way back. @weary zodiac

[zinc cloak]

All in all, prepare to enjoy my favorite part of the game's story/lore!

[analog scroll]

That bug only seems to exist outside of Euclid, so if you're still in the starting galaxy you're ok

If you have to leave the system, though, build a base. Better advice. You can teleport to any base, anywhere, with just the base computer

[zinc cloak]

I just tested it to verify and for me the bug still applies in Euclid... so your advice to build a base is recommended no matter which galaxy @weary zodiac may be in.

[charred haven]

has anyone flown an exocraft from the ground to space without short-distance teleporters? (You can get mad airtime on low-grav mouintain planets)

[stuck berry]

Yes, I've driven one from one planet to another before

The nomad has a bug related to specific camera angles where it can gain momentum in a weird way

[hollow gull]

Question about inventory: i seem to have fallen into the trap of keeping too much. Do you all bother to keep crafting mats on hand that you can easily make?

[stuck berry]

Normally yes, but I still keep a stack of each of the regular "yellow background" crafting components even though i barely use them from there

[ornate kite]

How many times do i need to wait for 24 hours in starbirth quest

[stuck berry]

The materials to craft said components come from my freighter with a bunch of core substances in it

[stuck berry]

Four times I believe

[ornate kite]

Iam on the 2 time (the heart)

[hollow gull]

I am drowning in items and trying to streamline.

[ornate kite]

@stuck berry and i got 20 eggs. Gives me 20 chances to find my perfect living ship

[fallow otter]

Might be a stupid question, but when placing base parts, is there a way to open the base part menu without exiting the build camera mode? (And if so, what is the button for it on Switch?)

[stuck berry]

It should be by pressing the "back" button while in edit mode, or the build menu button

Though it's been buggy in recent versions due to the build camera being reworked to use the same mechanics as the corvette workshop camera

As in it sometimes returns to the player upon opening the menu

[fallow otter]

Ah the back button works for that
I had forgotten that it returned to the menu instead of just exiting building mode entirely

Thanks!

It seems like if one of those two buttons should open the menu instead of cancelling the camera mode it should be the open menu button instead of the back button, but whatever

[woeful cliff]

Hi guys, so sorry if this is a known issue or dumb question, I’m trying to get back into the game after years of not playing haha. I started a new save and wanted to visit some random bases and farms from the anomaly to see what people are up to these days. First I get the bug that’s stuck on ‘downloading’, but by favouriting it using a hidden button I get access anyway. However, when I get there, nothing is ever built, not even a base computer - even when they have names like oxygen farm. I think I tried 10ish times, and didn’t see a base at any point. Is this a bug, am I just super unlucky, or is there a setting I should turn on? Thanks so much in advance 🫶

[stuck berry]

That's most likely due to the base possibly not being uploaded, and not finishing downloading on your end

[dim plaza]

why is the einstein galaxy full of paradise planets

[analog scroll]

Bases stuck on Downloading are typically those that the user either logged out or left the Anomaly and are not uploaded

[analog scroll]

It's not, Lush biome planets are just 2x more likely around Yellow stars than Normal galaxies like Euclid

[stuck berry]

All galaxies have those, lush galaxies just have about twice as many lush worlds in yellow systems due to their biome chances

[dim plaza]

oh okay

[fallen obsidian]

hi, so i went through a portal and now the portal is not working and i cant summon anything

[analog scroll]

If it was part of a mission, just wait

[fallen obsidian]

i was trying to complete the starbirth mission, i thought i needed to input the address for it but it never presented the option

[analog scroll]

You do, for Starbirth, but it sounds like a story mission took over

[fallen obsidian]

oh...

i dont see any primary or secondary missions that require a portal just one for a black hole

[analog scroll]

What missions do you have?

[fallen obsidian]

the space anomaly:beyond the system?, the atlas path:the dust of creation, patterns in time:uncover the past, dreams of the deep:lost beneath the waves, under a rebel star:against the red machine, track a black hole:to infinity, starbirth:flesh on metal bones and then the ones for my base researchers and community stuff

[stuck berry]

You didn't have to list the subtitle for each of them

[analog scroll]

Could have been Patterns in Time. You had something if you activated a portal and it didn't give you the option to dial the address. Additionally, if you don't have glyphs unlocked you need those to complete Starbirth

[fallen obsidian]

sorry @stuck berry

it gives me the strange song but i will look into it, ty tyndall

[analog scroll]

The egg will do that regardless if you're far enough; but you can't complete the mission without the needed things, mainly the portal glyphs to dial the address

[graceful forum]

Hey everyone! Someone gifted me 9,999 nanites in the anomaly randomly. It doesn't give me the option to transfer them into my like regular nanite currency that appears in the top left of the screen. Are these trash? I figured id ask before i discarded them?

[stuck berry]

Those items are not able to be used

they are normally unobtainable in the form of inventory items

you may safely discard them, as they have no other uses

[graceful forum]

i play on normal, did someone who plays on creative gift them? i just want to know what they are at this point

[analog scroll]

Someone tried and failed to save endit in nanites

[stuck berry]

They're a dummy item that cannot normally be obtained without save editing

[analog scroll]

It's a worthless item

items similar to that are often handed out to confuse new players

[dim plaza]

how to make a glyph base

[stuck berry]

What do you mean by "glyph base"?

[dim plaza]

when using glyph you can teleport to bases

so how were they buil

[stuck berry]

You can only use portals to teleport to the portals of other planets

[analog scroll]

Glyphs take you to specific planets

[dim plaza]

oh

oh then uh what is the effigy IV coords

[stuck berry]

We do not know, that is for you to find out

[dim plaza]

[stuck berry]

The community that runs that most likely has the glyph sequence for it

[dim plaza]

do they have a server for it?

I don't really know, but most likely

[dim plaza]

okay thanks

I found them and uh

Locating a Portal

1. Obtain the race relic item to give to a Monolith, [see this post](#nms-questions message);
2. Locate a Monolith, [see this post](#nms-questions message);
3. Interact with the same Monolith twice to locate Portal, [see this post](#nms-questions message).

📚 Notes:

• Portals don't have to be unlocked via any quest.
• To fully use the portal network, the player must unlock all 16 portal glyphs and purple star systems.
  • Run !faq-portalglyphs and !faq-purplesystems in #bot-spam to learn more.
• A portal is not the same as a teleporter. (see image )
• For planets in uncharted systems, obtain the glyph address of that planet via photomode, and portal to it from another system.

[dim plaza]

so evil

[analog scroll]

Purple systems are current end game. It makes sense that you have to have completed quite a bit before you can access them

[dim plaza]

yeah but its a bit weird logically because well, the player can use their eyes normally

also what do they even offer

[analog scroll]

Purple systems can't be seen until they're unlocked. They offer a lot of the same things that other system types do, except they are the only places you will find giants or water worlds

[dim plaza]

why are they required for portals tho

[stuck berry]

They aren't

[analog scroll]

They're not

[dim plaza]

but the FAQ says you need em

[stuck berry]

Unlocking them is only required to portal to coordinates in purple star systems

[analog scroll]

You can't take a portal to a purple system until you unlock them

[dim plaza]

ohh

well they can wait until everything else

is there a way to get rid of the intro

:(

[mild latch]

is there dreadnought a guaranted S class

[analog scroll]

Apart from Exotics and Living ships, no ships are guaranteed S class. Class chance is based on the system economy

[mild latch]

also gow do i warp without triggering the dreadnought event?

[zinc cloak]

Aren't systems supposed to have one solar ship at most? this pirate space station has had 3 different kinds of solar ships enter.

[analog scroll]

If you're due to trigger the event, it will trigger if you warp into a populated system. If you're trying to bypass a particular system, warp to an uncharted system

[analog scroll]

Outlaw systems can have up to 20 different models

[zinc cloak]

wow lol

[mild latch]

will warping with my freitgher trigger it?

[mild latch]

okay good to know, also hwo to like try to get class s dreadnought

[analog scroll]

Step 1: Own a freighter
Step 2: Be through a minimum of 2 freighter defense events on your save
Step 3: Use a personal ship for your warps

!faq-freighters in #nms-commands has farming tips and methods

[mild latch]

and then do the same as normal cap freitgher grind by reseting the restore point over and over agian

[analog scroll]

Correct

[mild latch]

so 5% chance is about 1 in 20 attempts if i use pirate system

[analog scroll]

If one chance factored into the next, yes. It might be more, it might be less

[mild latch]

are these things on the dreadnought painteble

[analog scroll]

Maybe? Not a lot is paintable on a dreadnought, honestly

[astral dome]

What color would y'all say this ship is ?

[viral wind]

Once I get my purple stars unlocked should I start making my way to the galaxy center?

[analog scroll]

Up to you. The only reason to go to the core is if you want to or want to travel to the next galaxy in line

[viral wind]

what happens if I drive into a black hole?

[analog scroll]

You go roughly 6k ly closer to the core and many times that around the core

[viral wind]

Oh wild.

[dim plaza]

how many stations do you gotta visit in total for the atlas path

[analog scroll]

11

[viral wind]

do they dissapear? I saw one when I arrived in the system and now I can't find it.

[dim plaza]

how to locate a hyper blackhole

[swift sand]

they only exist in the edges of galaxies, something like 900K-1.1M LY away from the core. they look the same as a regular black hole, just warp player much closer in, towards the core, than non-hypers do (~300K LY vs ~6K LY closer)

[dim plaza]

how close do they warp the player

[swift sand]

looks to be white that (or cream?)

lighting conditions maybe affecting it too

[astral dome]

Thank you that what I was thinking too

[swift sand]

when you open the galaxy map, top left, you'll see the "minimap" - below it, there's galaxy name and a number: a hyper black hole trip would cut that number down by something like 200,000 or 300,000 LY

[dim plaza]

so its practically useless because its so far

at best 900k you gotta travel 200k to warp back 300k and that only takes you 100k closer

and theres a chance it takes you 200k so youre back to square one

[swift sand]

yeah, they warp us that much more precisely because they're so further out. i guess might have been devs basically acknowledging, yeah, "traveling to the core from out here would take forever, even using black holes", dont know for sure haha

[swift sand]

nah. you'd only use them if you were already out there. these days there's much faster ways to get to the core regions anyway. are you trying to get to the core?

[dim plaza]

im already in eimstum? galaxy and yeah but unfortunately due to circumstances I can't use online nms on my pc

[swift sand]

find a portal, dial twelve times, you'll be 5k LY away

[dim plaza]

oh yeah completely forgot about that

[swift sand]

with practice, this would take you like 5min 🙂

[dim plaza]

does that work for every galaxy?

[swift sand]

yep

[dim plaza]

wow

[swift sand]

portal coords work fundamentally the same regardless of galaxy

[dim plaza]

thats cool

sorry for being an annoyance but uh after doing the thing at the purge, does each of the 4 orbs take you different galaxies or do all take you to einstein galaxy?

[swift sand]

black holes? nah. if there's one in your current system, switch to ship cockpit camera, and look for the purple sphere with the mini radar - then pulse to it

[analog scroll]

Each is different

[dim plaza]

thank god I picked the green one

[swift sand]

never be sorry for asking, always ask as much as you need to. each of the orbs represents 1 the galaxy types, like tyndall said. and will always use the next galaxy on the list of that type, counting from the current.

[dim plaza]

my brain kinda went: "green is lively planet so pick that" anyways what are the other types

[swift sand]

see <#nms-commands message>

[dim plaza]

oh im dumb its called einssentam

yeah good guide thanks

[gusty vapor]

So in the space stations are tubes with floating items, how do I get them?

[swift sand]

can you take a screenshot?

just to be sure

[gusty vapor]

Between the exosuit dealers and the multi tool dealer

[swift sand]

that's just examples - would need to see a screenshot of the actual customization options used to be able to tell you what's what exactly

but in short, there's lots of sources for appearance customization - quicksilver shop, quest rewards, expedition rewards, fishing milestones, insectoid armor set, etc

[dim plaza]

weird statistical question but what is the least visited galaxy

[swift sand]

we dont have data on that, but i'd say that any galaxy that's either 100+ on the list, or just not norm or lush type

[dim plaza]

I guess it would be hostile galaxies above 100+ on average cux

cuz

who would wanna go there

other than getting every galaxg

[mild latch]

what parts of the dreadnought is painteble

[swift sand]

pirate dreadnought? not all, iirc the underside plates, and some sections on the top can be

[mild latch]

okay like these

[swift sand]

yeah, you can see that it's not full cover

[mild latch]

how do i get a dreadnought agian

[unkempt stump]

I found a tradepost on a planet then left the planet and returned to the planet but now I cant find a tradepost again after scanning. How do I find another?

[analog scroll]

Economy scanner has a function to find them from the quick menu

[swift sand]

in short, it'll happen naturally, if you dont have options/difficulty/space combat set to none. need to own a freighter and to have completed 2 rescue battle events with that save before it can spawn. just keep playing the game as usual, have fun, but always exit ship in station before warping out to another system. when the next battle does trigger, simply reload restore point save slot, and warp to any outlaw system - pirate freighter will be there, if requirements for it to spawn are met.

[unkempt stump]

@analog scroll im new to the game can you explain

[simple yoke]

do I need convergence cubes for anything like quest related? Can i just keep a stack of 20 and sell the rest?

[analog scroll]

The Economy scanner is a ship tech that can be unlocked in the Anomaly. Buy the blueprint, install it in your ship, then use the quick menu to scan for trade posts

[swift sand]

sure, that's a good plan - but tbh, if you do ever end up needing more, you can just buy them from any non-space station korvax trade pilot e.g. at trade outpost. if you're struggling for cargo slots atm, sell them all

[unkempt stump]

@analog scroll I understand that but while im on planet the scanner scans another trade post off planet

[analog scroll]

The one it points you to will be random in the system

[unkempt stump]

@analog scroll ya im trying to return to the one I visited already

I purchased some commercial planetary charts and found one.

[quartz anchor]

Came back to PS4 no man’s sky, and all the textures are super bunk. Weird mismatched texture when you scan things sometimes. Planet pictures are a huge block of mishmashed pixel textures sometimes. Is there a way to fix that?

[tiny plank]

For sure you needed to download a new update, right? Maybe your download isn’t quite complete. PS4 has a “feature” which allows you to start playing with a partial/minimal download, while bulky image files still download in the background.
Happened to me when I first started and I almost quit right off. Looked terrible, essentially unplayable.

[quartz anchor]

Its already been updated

I don’t play them before they’re done downloading. And No Man’s Sky didn’t give me the option to do that either

I’ll try the cache clearing and see if that works

[safe moat]

am i doing this correctly

do they stack?

[stuck berry]

Everything there "stacks", yes

You can have up to three upgrade modules per tech type installed at a time, not counting blueprint/core technology

When you install more than three, it will overload all upgrade modules of that type until one is removed, so it will be obvious when something does not work

[viral wind]

@analog scroll Regarding my earlier inability to place an automated feeder. Do you think it might be quest blocked?

@analog scroll I have’t finished the farmers quest.

[errant lion]

do i make everything from scratch in nms?

like the ships, suits, guns, everything?

buildings?

[nova wyvern]

Nothing in this game is quest blocked like that

[nova wyvern]

Nope. You can buy ships or repair wreaked ones, also can build your own, same with multitools but the only ones you can build are staffs, suit is just adding upgrades

[simple yoke]

is it better to feed your living frigates to change stats after they've fully grown to S class?

I've tried to follow some guides but it's not behaving as predicted (mine is a brand new C)

[celest mist]

Anyone have any flat terrain planets?

[stuck berry]

I have many that I've noted for being especially flat

along with many more that I've found in purple star systems, though those also feature mountains between the colossal flat areas

[celest mist]

Whoah! Ty !

[last ruin]

How do you get to making your own ships? Where do I go to start? Do I have to complete the main quest to a certain point, I’m relatively new, just got to meet Artemis and I have no idea what I’m doing lol

[celest mist]

What kind of ship do you wanna build?

[stuck berry]

You can just locate crashed starships #nms-questions message or buy landed pilot's starships at any point in the game, and extract their customization modules to then use to build your own Fighter, Explorer, Hauler or Solar ship at the Starship Fabricator aboard any Space Station, or you could build a corvette-class starship, which would involve either purchasing the basic modules from the Corvette Workshop or salvaging corvette modules from Salvageable Scrap worlds #nms-commands message

[last ruin]

I don’t really know I just want to start a project like that to have something to work for for a while

Ooooh there are different kinds, I did not know that.

Thank you

[stuck berry]

Corvette-class starships are the starships that were added in the recent Voyagers update, they are very large and can be walked inside of

[thick vigil]

My frigates come back from missions and I get the ablion pearls, or geodesites, whatever - except I notice that they also bring back magnetised ferrite when I end the mission. Does that just go directly into my exosuit inventory (i cant tell cause i have some in already)

[vital estuary]

Usually freighter inventory unless that is full, or goes wherever you have free space.

Possibly into your exosuit if that is the only stack of it you have.

[ember helm]

yep ^

happens to me constantly

it made my exosuit stack exceed 9999 lol

[oak flint]

Can anyone explain these corvettes to me and all the parts and stuff I haven't played for a while now and Im seeing people build star destroyers 😭

[thick vigil]

It's 2 parts. The key thing to know, it's part of the latest update and you can now build your own ships. You build them in Space Stations. You can buy the base parts there for units. These ships let you space walk and walk around in your ship while its flying.

Main way I know how to get the other parts, is you can go to planets with Salvageable Scrap and loot those - I found a planet that within like 2 hours I had tons of parts. You can trade said parts in you have duplicates/don't want for other parts you do (just like at the Bone Researcher dude in Space Stations).

The 2nd part, people mod/build in Blender or whever and port them in. That's how you see these crazy Space Destroyers or Gundam ships - you can't actually build those in game.

[simple yoke]

So I had bought my first freighter instead of getting the free one. But I just got another encounter with the free freighter even tho I have my own already. Is this normal? I also just jumped a black hole if that makes a difference

I was hoping for a dreadnaught encounter next actually 😅

[atomic fractal]

Can we paint the suit's visor somehow? Couldn't edit it

[oak flint]

Thank you

[wet sigil]

Check the coloring options, one of them should change the visor's color

[atomic fractal]

Maybe I have to unlock it? Or it's default?

[wet sigil]

It should be default, but also depends on the visor

[wet sigil]

Dreadnaught requires you to encounter two freighter fights first before they will appear

[wet sigil]

The visor color is the "accent color"

[atomic fractal]

Oh that's gold info I'll report later

Wanted to have the basic #1 helmet with a golden visor like an astronaut

[wet sigil]

<

That particular helm's visor can't be changed

of all the helm options I own, #1 is the ONLY helm whose visor can't be recolored :/

The closest is probably the skyborn helmet

[atomic fractal]

No damn way lmao

The most astronaut like helmet and they don't allow it

[nova wyvern]

I mean I think the skyborn one is more realistic

Pretty sure the suit was modeled after the suits in the movie The Martian

[round ledge]

I am new to the game, so I dont know alot about guilds. Where are mercenarie guilds? I got attacked by pirates, and got some pirate responders.

[ember helm]

Only one Guild can appear in a given Region,

Go to a different one until you find a region with Mercenary envoys

[round ledge]

So does the economy tell what guild ill find there?

Oh ok nvm I didn't see the black rectangle. Thank you

[gusty vapor]

How exactly do you use a “cable pod”?

[olive island]

How to get ai valves?

[stuck berry]

Open the build menu and place it down

[stuck berry]

By salvaging very valuable starships

[gusty vapor]

Ok. So treat it like the ancient ruins parts?

[stuck berry]

It's just another base decoration, but it solely comes in the form of the item

You could build more by duplicating it in build mode, which uses Ferrite Dust instead of the item

[gusty vapor]

(Not to worry I built a base on the planet I found it on)

[simple yoke]

I’ve done 4 normal freighter fights and the randomly landed on an S class fighter and bought that instead. So now it resets again?

[zealous hornet]

anyone know what the missing deco is? its the only one I don't have

[vague geode]

Listed as Living Fragment A in my catalog.

[zealous hornet]

thanks

glad i asked it looks like its a bug, i def have that and the large storage unit it says im missing

thats weird its opposite, its in my build menu with the head and other crystal

has someone ever named a galaxy ps4 because (most likely) someone has but if not i wanna be devious

[granite sail]

Hello, are there specific locations for Corvette parts? If yes, are there any links or thread for it?

[stuck berry]

You can purchase the basic selection of corvette modules from any Corvette Workshop, or you can collect the full selection from places like Salvage Containers on worlds with Salvageable Scrap, and unwanted ones can be traded for other modules at the Corvette Workshop

[fervent wind]

i just built my first corvette and i hated it so i reloaded my save to like 5 minutes before but i still have my complete corvette and all the money i spent on the corvette parts is this a glitch?

[ivory dawn]

just a quick question, how do i go through the center of the galaxy, i'm on the last Planet/System before the center???

[lethal pasture]

What is this??

[warm minnow]

if your on the final quest in elucid u js have to warp 16 times then u get a portal location then u go to it then it js automatically inserts the glyphs then u go to the end of the final quest. THEN you can go into other galaxys and go through the core.

[spice vessel]

How do I gain access to the other galaxies

[warm minnow]

finishing the game

(i mean main story line)

[spice vessel]

There’s times when I put the glyphs in the portal and it says Atlas corruption is that the reason why ?

[warm minnow]

do you have a photo?

[ivory dawn]

i did the story and got the new beginnings, i just wanted to do the center bit of the story

[spice vessel]

I’ll post it when I wake up but whenever I input the glyphs it says that when the portal activates

[warm minnow]

well after the main quest u can freely warp to the center from a galaxy close to it and i recommend a living ship but a normal ship can work

(if u want to get really close to the center find a portal and put all sunset glyph)

[ivory dawn]

i did that, i'm at taco, but i cant see how to get through th center?

[warm minnow]

if you open ur galaxy map try warping into the center

and im pretty sure u cant do it in eulcid

but i may be wrong

[ivory dawn]

ok that might be the problem, i'm in eulcid

[solid oasis]

Your ship needs to have a full fuel tank..99% isn't good enough. And it needs to have the Indium drive or Atlantid drive.

[warm minnow]

go to whatever galaxy u unlocked after beating the game then try it

[warm minnow]

oh and this

but the euclid thing is probably wrong

i havent really done much with the core yet

[ivory dawn]

i have all the drives unlocked

[warm minnow]

and equipped?

[ivory dawn]

yep

[warm minnow]

and full fuel?

[solid oasis]

Not just unlocked, you need one of those drives installed on your ship. And you need to be in a gateway system...follow the yellow line in the galactic map if it's not going directly into the galactic core.

[warm minnow]

im pretty sure taco is the most popular gateway

[ivory dawn]

i'll try it soon, they are all in ship , i'll fill them

[solid oasis]

Yes you can...no idea who told you that you can't but you absolutely can jump into the galactic core of Euclid.

[warm minnow]

i wasnt being mean about it i was making a guess

[vague geode]

@ivory dawn use !Faq-CoreWarp - Guide on warping to the center of a galaxy - in https://discord.com/channels/146101654981312513/372164853286305802

[ivory dawn]

ok ty 🙂

[solid oasis]

It's not complicated...you just need to be in a gateway system, have a full hyperdrive, and either the Indium or Atlantid drive installed in your ship. Yellow line in the galactic map leads to gateway system and then into the core. It's incredibly simple.

[ivory dawn]

first time, i'll give it a go ty 🙂

i did the new beginnings, i'm prepared this time with galaxy hopping ship and multitool 🙂

[solid oasis]

Good point. I'll put it in spoiler tags: ||Jumping though the galactic core breaks all tech in your ship, multitool, and exosuit. To avoid having to repair everything it's best to use a ship that only has the 5 base techs you can't uninstall plus the Indium drive, a multitool that only has the mining beam, and to package up all of the tech in your exosutit that you can...only leave the 3 techs you can't package.|| @ivory dawn

[tiny brook]

is there a corvette building guide anywhere?
also- once you finalize a build, is it possible to edit it or not?

[stuck berry]

You may edit a finalized corvette again endlessly #nms-questions message

Also, what kind of building guide?

[solid oasis]

Not really. Corvettes are too versatile both looks wise and in terms of tech setup. You can kit them up in a lot of different ways. And you can't have all of their extra tech without sacrificing space you could use for better modules on something so you kind of have to plan and know what you want to do with a corvette...what tech you will sacrifice, what you will install, what you'll spend the super-charged slots on, etc. I recommend upgrading it to S class and upgrading its tech slots to the max of 60 immediately. That lets you know where your super-charged slots are, figure out the stat bonuses, etc. And you can go from there.

[tiny brook]

any idea what the best way to trade for modules is?

[solid oasis]

No, last I tried trading did not work at all...I think it might have been patched or rebalanced since but I just stuck to finding parts on planets with scrap after that.

[tiny brook]

trading seems to work for me

i just need the random modules to trade in

[stuck berry]

Functional modules trade for more value than cosmetic ones

[tiny brook]

got it. any idea on the best way to get them?

[stuck berry]

also, the basic selection of modules is blocked from trading

[tiny brook]

yeah

[stuck berry]

Salvage Containers on worlds with Salvageable Scrap listed as a resource

[tiny brook]

love it thank you

[tiny brook]

are they more present in certain systems?

[stuck berry]

No (though Weird worlds can never have it #nms-commands message which are more common in red systems and generally found more in non-yellow systems)

[tiny brook]

wow nvm one is in my system lmfao

[dim plaza]

do settlement debts go away offline

[stuck berry]

Yes, all settlement related things continue while offline

[dim plaza]

oh thank god

[solid oasis]

If productivity is higher than maintenance costs the debts will also be paid off even when the game is off...nothing about them requires internet connection either.

[dim plaza]

what are alien charts

are they alien cartography data?

[stuck berry]

Yes, that is their subtitle

[dim plaza]

all i keep finding is first spawn propaganda things

[stuck berry]

What are you trying to find?

If you are seeking a monolith, use multiple charts without visiting the structures marked that you don't wish to visit

Ignore the errors, until three structures total are marked by them

See the link in #nms-commands message on Step 2 for more info

Make sure the steps below are completed.

⚠️ Use #nms-commands for FAQ commands below & check #nms-questions for the latest details about the update.

1. Finish the Artemis Path (main story). Run !Faq-ArtemisPath in #nms-commands.
2. Lift the Seal from a Harmonic Camp. Run !Faq-Interceptor in #nms-commands.
3. Warp to any system via a starship and wait in space for the quest to start. If you triggered a freighter battle when entering the system, warp to another.

❗ This information has been verified as of <t:1694212090:D> (after Update 4.44) & is subject to change.

With update 4.44, completion of the mission, A Trace of Metal is no longer required. A Settlement used to be needed -- except on Switch, where you'd have to trigger it by warping 25 times.

Staff multitool is part of echoes content

[fading temple]

can i disable it?

[pulsar jacinth]

Nope

[knotty bramble]

Yeah, I just finished that. I still have the Atlas path, do I need to do that though

[fading temple]

okay, and another question.... in photo mode the horizontal camera is inverted, when i turn to left the cam turn to rigth, how can i change that?

[pulsar jacinth]

No, you only need to finish the main story to unlock staves. If you have the "New Beginnings" mission, then you're good there.

You still have to meet the other requirements. Visit a harmonic camp and solve a puzzle at a terminal there.

[knotty bramble]

Okay, thanks

[pulsar jacinth]

I don't recall there being a setting to specifically invert an axis in photo mode only

[wet sigil]

If it doesn't work, wait until the next time a new QS mission quota is added and then try again, and then do the weekend mission first

[fading temple]

yo who came up with that 12 ufo portal method

[granite sail]

Hello, what's the best way to trade for Corvette parts? Or are there even any?

[pulsar jacinth]

Around 0.333% spawn rate

[dim plaza]

oh also how do I warp to a galaxy core

im there at the closest system

to the core

but I dont see any prompts

[pulsar jacinth]

You can get corvette parts from multiple sources and trade them for other parts at the terminal.

If you are asking about the best exchange ratios then I have no idea. I would assume since parts you find in the wild are randomised and you want specific parts then the best ratios are kinda irrelevant

[tiny brook]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! im doing the s class grind on dreadnoughts, and since its in a pirate system this could have been a S class

[dim plaza]

absolute pain

[mild latch]

its totally worth it thoutgh

are all exotic ships even crashed ones garuented S class

[river canyon]

Yes

[knotty bramble]

I've been trying to find exotic ships that I can recruit for my squadron

[river canyon]

One exotic model per inhabited system, 1 in 301 chance to spawn wherever ships spawn

[swift sand]

hunting in trade outposts might help speeding up the process a bit, as one can often see ship spawn points in the distance, and immediately check if theres an exotic or not - if not, force game to respawn ships via save+reload

[knotty bramble]

What's the best way to find a portal, and do they spawn on every planet?

[swift sand]

yep, a portal per planetary body; best way to find one is to either use alien charts or exocrafts with the radar power resonator tech installed

!faq-portal @knotty bramble see post below

Locating a Portal

1. Obtain the race relic item to give to a Monolith, [see this post](#nms-questions message);
2. Locate a Monolith, [see this post](#nms-questions message);
3. Interact with the same Monolith twice to locate Portal, [see this post](#nms-questions message).

📚 Notes:

• Portals don't have to be unlocked via any quest.
• To fully use the portal network, the player must unlock all 16 portal glyphs and purple star systems.
  • Run !faq-portalglyphs and !faq-purplesystems in #bot-spam to learn more.
• A portal is not the same as a teleporter. (see image )
• For planets in uncharted systems, obtain the glyph address of that planet via photomode, and portal to it from another system.

[knotty bramble]

Thanks!

[swift sand]

(you'll see that it's the monolith's 2nd interaction that actually marks the portal; those are the two easiest ways to locate a monolith building)

[knotty bramble]

Bet, also I just found this planet a bit ago, but it's already one of my favorites

Mainly because of this guy

[swift sand]

proto-geks are so adorable. have fun 🙂 (gentle reminder that these kinds of images can and should go in #nms-media , if not "attached" to a question)

[knotty bramble]

Okay, my bad, I'm kinda tired and forgot. Thanks for answering my questions though.

[swift sand]

nah, you're fine. also, always feel free to ask as much as needed, we know how overwhelming the game can be

[autumn talon]

you can buy the horrific flesh helemet at pirate stations, i was wondering can i buy any other apearences at other places

[swift sand]

quicksilver shop in the anomaly, there's also the autophage race customization pieces (needs to complete ⁨they who returned⁩)

[autumn talon]

is that all?

[swift sand]

to buy, if i'm not forgetting anything, yeah - the rest are as rewards (expeditions, quests, fishing milestones, etc)

[ionic pond]

is there a planet/system type that is more favourable when searching for salvageable scrap?

[swift sand]

system type is unrelated but there's planets with higher concentration of salvageable scrap, at least within some areas. try moons, try extreme weather planets - i seem to get better luck in those. oh, also avoid planets with lots of mountains

[ionic pond]

which tags would extreme weather planets have?

[swift sand]

in short, pretty much any planet that doesnt have star bulb on the list but has activated copper/cad/emeril/etc will be an extreme weather planet

[ionic pond]

ight ill have a look around, never seen one of those planets before now that i think about it...

[swift sand]

i'm sure you have

[ionic pond]

are they common?

[swift sand]

just been focusing on other things

sure

[ionic pond]

ight ill have a look, ty!

wait but the tag ⁨savlageable scrap⁩ is a requirement right?

[swift sand]

yep

[dim plaza]

a gek in my settlement hired an assassin to kill another gek and also had public crashouts without being provoked, should I exile him or house arrest him?

[swift sand]

you pick, not really going to be a huge deal - the effects should be visible on the screen below each option iirc, but if not 1) you can save before taking a decision, reload if you didnt like the outcome 2) exiling him will basically mean 1 less pop

[dim plaza]

alright then I guess he will be exiled

[lost kestrel]

are all sentinel pillars the same weapon?! on a planet?

[swift sand]

yep

[lost kestrel]

other planets too?

[swift sand]

no, other planets will follow the same principle - so a pillar on a diff planet will probably have diff tool

[lost kestrel]

why isnt the robot attacking me?

im next to a button that can kill it

[swift sand]

sentinels guarding pillars arent aggressive by default

game design

[lost kestrel]

ah so i can just chill with it

[analog trellis]

Is 2m units max on settlement? 🤔

[swift sand]

iirc the value in game files was 1.5M, but those values arent always the ones we see in game so that sounds about right

[analog trellis]

Yeah... Two of mine are at 1.7 and 1.6 ....

Happines OVER 150% at one

[swift sand]

yeah, hap can go quite high, near 200%

[ornate kite]

I just sat down in the anomoly. When i came back, i had 2 full stacks of this

[surreal iris]

Can anyone like, help/tell me on how to get glyphs? I'm having trouble finding those travelers on stations

[ivory dawn]

have you done the purge?

[surreal iris]

The purge? I don't think so

[dim plaza]

if not then do it then go for glyphs

[surreal iris]

Okey dokey

[solemn peak]

Is it worth it to go too a different galaxy?

[dull ibex]

Hey guys i found an echo seed, but it's on a moon can i activitate it there as well? or only on planets?

[terse meadow]

That shouldn't matter
