How does unlocking the various Colossus parts work?

Not including exp parts

[swift sand]

see image

[scenic saffron]

oh jeez

Grind is on lol

[stray mauve]

Exuse me, i have a question, and a little report to give, first:

i checked the road signs quest and did the steps and itts totally broken, but

for some reason, i hopped off and hopped back on a little later, and it register me doing yet ANOTHER part of the quest

went from 1/6 to 2/6

sencodly, do all the special collosus parts HAVE to be unlocked before the event???

[stuck berry]

Before what event?

All of them except the Camouflage Finish, Asymmetrical Cabin, Mechanical Legs will still be obtainable after Expedition 21: Remnant concludes

[stray mauve]

Sry, by "event" i ment expidition

so, all the stuff is obtainable after the expidition except the stuff that REQUIRES, you complete a section of the event?

[stuck berry]

This has been true for every community expedition so far, so yes

Things currently obtainable outside of the community expedition will remain obtainable

[proper parcel]

mm dern. thanks.

[peak lantern]

Is “it” fixed yet

[stray mauve]

not official support here but, currently playing, reloaded the game a couple times, if "it" you mean, the bugged Road signs quest, then no, "it" hasnt been fixed unfortunatly.

[peak lantern]

I’m just joshing lol

[swift sand]

btw, none of us works for HG, we're all just players here, community run

[real trench]

When do you think that the switch 2 version will match the pc version? Can't play cross platform because of it :/

[stray mauve]

you guys are devote, my thanks

[stray mauve]

switch is roughly 2 weeks behind in updates for NMS

[real trench]

Dang. Alright, thanks.

[ember helm]

not quite

they got this weeks update

they're just behind on the hotfixes

[stray mauve]

please correct me if im wrong (not sarcastic)👍

[ember helm]

i can go on switch and start the new expedition if i wanted to

so it's not that far behind

[stuck berry]

No it isn't, it's on the same version but a prior save version for some reason

[real trench]

Would minor hotfixes cause a version mismatch issue?

[stuck berry]

A save version that was skipped by all other platforms

[ember helm]

but all consoles are behind on hotfixes rn

[stuck berry]

If it increments the save version, yes. None have been released that would do so though for this current patch cycle

[real trench]

Alright. Thanks.

[stray mauve]

(xbox isnt)

[ember helm]

it is

unless that changed in the last few hours

what's the command for all versions grouch idk it lol

[stray mauve]

my friend and i are on together rn, he is on xbox

[dapper oxide]

How can I get aeron blades?

[stray mauve]

though, i should double check his activity for accuracy

[ember helm]

someone has to give them to you or you can use mods to obtain them if you're on PC

if you aren't on PC, being given them is the only way

[glass wigeon]

why does my game keep crashing

[dapper oxide]

Damn

[livid kayak]

are you on xbox?

[glass wigeon]

yep

[stuck berry]

That's fully unrelated to the hotfixes, as all currently public patches can play with each other (besides Switch 2 which can't, due to being on an early one that all others skipped)

[stray mauve]

my bad sorry

[livid kayak]

Known issue right now. Just gotta wait for the patch

[glass wigeon]

alright thank you

[stuck berry]

#nms-commands message All platforms that match each other in save version can play with each other, and also fully support cross-save

[stray mauve]

thx, ill remember

[fluid surge]

Xbox keeps crashing, anyone else having issues?

[stuck berry]

Some hotfixes don't increment the save version, which means people can still play with each other. The next upcoming one will though (which is in Steam Experimental currently)

[real trench]

So basically when that one releases we'll have to wait another 2 weeks or so before the switch will be cross-platform again?

[stuck berry]

Currently it's already behind, so no "Again"

[ember helm]

unless they release the version at the same time that's compatible

[real trench]

ok. I see.

[stuck berry]

And yeah, only if they update at similar times and to the same save version

for some reason, switch has had many save versions fully to itself, we do not know why this is

[river willow]

I spoke to soon lol

[stuck berry]

this update cycle is one such case of that, 4202 has not existed for any other platform

[ember helm]

yeah it did

it was last version's save version

they just didnt increment the version on switch 2 for some reason

[stuck berry]

I thought that 6.18's save version was 4201 though

Yeah, 6.18's save version was 4201 #bot-spam message

[ember helm]

wtf?

it was 4202 before Remnant even came out

either that's wrong or what i saw in game is wrong

[stuck berry]

Well it wasn't

Unless yeah, it was somehow wrong

[ember helm]

i saw 4202 so many times it's burned into my memory lmfao

i saw that number on switch 2 and i immediately thought "wtf they didnt increase it?"

[obtuse wave]

I saw the update on switch on Wednesday and got fooled into thinking that meant cross save was up

[clear pecan]

why won't my cape show up💔

[stuck berry]

It would seem that none of your textures are fully loading

[clear pecan]

oh😭

how does one fix this

[livid kayak]

you can try to: Restart the game, verify the files integrity, or delete shader cache.
Let me know if you need any assistance with that

[granite sail]

How to use the gravity gunnoutside expedition?

[stuck berry]

By using it. Are you asking how to acquire it's blueprint outside of the expedition?

[clear pecan]

"that's the neat part"

[stuck berry]

You do that buy purchasing it's blueprint from Iteration: Eos aboard the Space Anomaly

[granite sail]

2nd part, yes

[granite sail]

Ahhh thank you

[ripe rivet]

I just want to ask here since it's kinda hard to tell by googling, if you make a corvette, if you use the best stuff and resources to make it, can said corvette have more total stats than any other type of ship class?

[digital vessel]

Lolll

[nova zealot]

Hi, how many normal frigates do you need to unlock full length freighter missions? I notice that when I went down to 3 normal frigates and 20 living frigates it stopped giving me missions longer than 7 hours

[granite sail]

Loving the pfp👉

[stuck berry]

Probably, idk. There isn't enough tech slots for everything at once so you definitely have to sacrifice things though

[granite sail]

I feel like it's random

[stuck berry]

4, though it should count living frigates towards that

[proper parcel]

what is the second input slot for in refiner?

[nova zealot]

Hmm yeah, not sure why it isn't doing it anymore for my living frigates. Confusing

[stuck berry]

A slot to use special recipes that turn 2 items into one item

They require trial and error to find out what works together, or guides

[proper parcel]

oh ok thx

[livid kayak]

example: gold + silver gives you platinum

[stuck berry]

I think https://nomansskyrecipes.com/refining is a good place for that

[proper parcel]

oh thats good to know.

[stuck berry]

Many other simple recipes exist, like combining a plant resource with it's native biome resource to make more of the plant resource

(Like Paraffinium + Star Bulb = 2x Star Bulb)

[ripe rivet]

well, the thing about corvettes is that the modules you can use to build it also affect it's stats

not just the tech slots

[stuck berry]

Oh those stats, those only really affect it's maneuverability I think, we really don't know enough about how that works but that also doesn't impact their stat bonus %s at all, so they will always have extremely low damage and maneuverability bonuses as well as very high shield strength bonuses

[ripe rivet]

nope, I've been looking at them and they most certainly do not affect just maneuverability

[dapper oxide]

🥲

[ripe rivet]

reactors affect light year distance and decrease pulse cost and variations also affect different things, landing gear decreases launch costs by percentage too

[stuck berry]

That's tech.

Those bonuses work by adding tech to the tech inventory, they are internally just procedural upgrades with seeds determined by placement order. Adding a Zenith-Class Reactor is not very different from adding a Hyperdrive Upgrade Module

[dapper oxide]

Does anyone have any extra aeron blades?

[stuck berry]

It would be better to ask in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[dapper oxide]

Allright I’ll ask there thanks!

[clear pecan]

ty twin :3

[dire vale]

Sentinel ships can be S class when I am looking it up, right?

[stuck berry]

Yes

[dire vale]

I’Ve only founded max A

[dire vale]

Oh I need to check if the galaxy is poor so

But I don’t think it is

[stuck berry]

Galaxies don't have economy tiers, only star systems do

[dire vale]

Yeah sorry, star system I mean

[stuck berry]

But yes, higher class system economy means a higher chance for higher class starships (with outlaw systems having wacky chances)

[ripe rivet]

I actually think those are separate things, but google is kinda confusing me, I asked in the corvette discussion channel instead since those guys probably understand the corvette design better

Because it says specifically modules are not tech

[dire vale]

Well, gonna keep looking so, I really liked the design of one star system but I haven’t found S yet

At least I get tons of units

[stuck berry]

They are directly listed in the procedural technology table, their bonuses are purely from the tech that's populated when they're placed

When the technology itself is removed via bugs/mods but the physical base object remains, the bonuses go away

[ripe rivet]

nvm, I guess not, so it's a mix of non-tech and tech, idk what is going on

[stuck berry]

You could just upgrade the class of an existing one using nanites too

[ripe rivet]

or not?

[clear pecan]

restarted the game, idk how to do the other two

[peak lantern]

I reported my issue to their website, hoping it’s fixed within the next coming days. I JUST discovered this game and then an update dropped to where I crash damn near every turn and it sucks booty.

[stuck berry]

This text is just describing how it follows a separate module limit

[ember helm]

yeah you can have 3 S/X/whatever tier AND 3 corvette parts increasing it; for example my infra-knife has 3 illegal mods ON TOP OF having 3 corvette parts that make it better

[dire vale]

Yeah but I only have like 15k nanites, so it’s probably not enough

Although I gonna check tomorrow

[proud spire]

Has anybody come across a waypoint that looks like this in the expedition?

[stuck berry]

No. Your graphics are bugging out

[proud spire]

I’ve just reloaded it three times and it still looks like that

[stuck berry]

It would be advised for you to clear your cache #nms-questions message

[proud spire]

But the thing is, it’s the only one I’ve come across like it

[short heart]

Do the different colossus tracks do different things? Different stats or anything?

[tidal charm]

Does anybody have some building tips specifically for building on the side of huge mountains?

[winter wolf]

we don't know for sure. personally i feel like the legs keep your vehicle more stable over bumps, but i haven't done any testing to verify that

[remote tree]

has any one else had an issue with, phase 5, field guide badge resetting to zero when you scanned all of the creatures and can not rescan them because the game has logged that you have scanned them already?

[delicate coral]

There is an area that you need to click in the discovery section, I don't remember how I got there, but once you do that, then you get the badge/rewards

I had the same issue

Ok so when you click on fauna it takes you to another screen, at the top the bar should be highlighted, you click on that and it registers

[remote tree]

becuse it is an expadition i can not find a upload descoverys option i think it is disabeld for the event, if multipule people tryed to log the same findings there would be conflict ad only one person can discover an item

i rolled back to an older save where it was not compleated but lost a few hours of progress

[livid kayak]

what platform are you on? Steam?

[clear pecan]

how does one delete the shader cache if I'm running NMS on steam

oh

sorry

didn't see that

yeah, steam

😭

I figured out the integrity thing tho

[livid kayak]

navigate to: Steam\steamapps\common\No Man's Sky\GAMEDATA\SHADERCACHE

and delete all the files within this folder, this will force the game to regenerate the files when you restart the game

[livid kayak]

just right click NMS inside your steam library, select properties -> Installed files -> Browse -> and continue from there

[clear pecan]

folder says it's empty

went to gamedata then shadercache

[livid kayak]

Well, perhaps they've changed it. I'm out of ideas for now then

[clear pecan]

alr, ty tho

[rough thistle]

Work's fine for me on steam

[river willow]

Do I actually have to travel to the center of the galaxy for the quest

[short heart]

Which quest?

[river willow]

Reset the simulation

[simple yoke]

is there any way of rerolling the starbirth quest time to wait or is it pretty much set alreeady

[short heart]

Just follow the atlas path

[chrome berry]

oops

have they fixed corvettes not in active use’s tech slots getting jumbled up like a puzzle yet

I wanna know because I don’t like having to fix it every time

[flint siren]

Are they in the process of fixing the crashing on Xbox?

I’m jus tryna run a game after work😂

[ember helm]

it hasnt happened to me since the update but it seemed to be random before so idk

i have 3 corvettes that shit was INFURIATING

[chrome berry]

I’ll wait and see

[chrome berry]

Exactly

i’m gonna stress test it with a few set of complex black hole jumps and portal trips

[ember helm]

try multiplayer and reloading your save while NOT having your corvette main (and also when having it main)

multiplayer was a previous glitch that i thought was happening to me, but i saw it was in the patch notes from a version before i even started playing the game so either it randomly regressed or it was something else entirely (like the save reload while corvette is non-main)

[pure lily]

New to freighter building. How do I make an X-corridor?

[empty geode]

anyone else having an issue getting their character customization not showing their saved presets?

[pure lily]

one without adjacent rooms (i.e. 4 corridors connected to 1 X-corridor)

[stuck berry]

By just attaching corridors to the central one

They automatically snap to each other like that

You can force them to be the straight, L and T variants if needed

[pure lily]

as in using a straight corridor and attaching it to the sides of other straight corridors?

[deft current]

Q: Is it a known Bug that if you sit inside a Trading Post you can Die..?

[pure lily]

I've been attempting to do that but I believe my game is bugged

I just did a restart and it's working as intended now

[stuck berry]

As in having one non-forced corridor, and attaching any corridor to each of it's four sides now

[pure lily]

but unsure for how long

[stuck berry]

Die in what way?

It's not intended for you to be unkillable while inside of a trade outpost or anything, but you are immune to outdoor hazards

[deft current]

Silently die from exposure to the weather/storms.. !!

[stuck berry]

that is not normal, unless referring to the special weather events like the localized storms etc

or the wind events

[warped spindle]

Anyone have an answer for this problem? Me and my buddy recently got into no mans sky, and started the expedition to play it together(both of us are on series s) were in a group and could see each other but the next moment he was gone and I couldn't see him even tho we were in the same exact spot, we were still in a group too

[rain geyser]

im sure its been asked before, do we think raytracing or close to it may ever be implemented

namely for things like gi, occlusion, lighting and shadows

[empty geode]

me and my buddy have the same issue, one of us will normally go to the anomoly and lleave group then leave the anomoly, as long as yall are in the same system youll see each other

but this might not be the way to fix it just how we get around it

[warped spindle]

We don't have that issue when playing regularly, it only just happened when we were doing the expedition

[empty geode]

ah, then im sorry my answer wasnt on topic mate

[warped spindle]

Alls good, maybe it's a server thing, hopefully when we hop back in tomorrow it'll work, thank you tho, I appreciate the help fellow traveler

[deft current]

Nope. I guess it's not a known Bug yet, but before i went afk i sat down on one of the many seats inside, but before i went away i noticed my Toxic protection icon dropping, like i was outside.. However, the 100% was not dropping..! I stood up and checked and for sure i had lost Toxic Protection in a short amount of time, i fed it up to 100% again, and while standing there was no drop, as expected, but when i sat down it was dropping again..!!

Q: Do some things (plants, animals, rocks maybe??) go extinct normally, or after Updates..?

[stuck berry]

Only after updates that change things like that fundamentally

which the last one that had this happen was WP2 for flora/minerals, and Origins for fauna

[deft current]

..Seems to have happened this time as well, since last week i lost some plants & animals, they became extinct..

[normal pagoda]

I need urgent help, I somehow managed to regain my starship before I completed the expedition, I flew across the planet to try and find another waste processing facility and to find more scrap as I wasn’t having any luck. I landed and scanned, only to find out there’s only 1 on the planet, but my starship is out of launch fuel and I have no way to insert the launch fuel. Please help, what do I do?

[quartz kelp]

I don't think there's only one on the planet. I found a second one not far from the first. But I do think the expedition is designed to ONLY ping the one so it seems like there is only one. So you can either try your luck looking for one near you, or start the long haul trek back to the main one

[normal pagoda]

The closest it pinged me to was 3 hours away,

By exo

I mean I was on the last phase? Is the heirloom set really worth it?

[quartz kelp]

yes, it will only ping the main one. Some people have made an 8 hour trek (one way) after flying and discovering what you have, so 3 hours isn't bad comparatively!

I like the heirloom set, but that's up to you

[deft current]

Apparently, not immune at all, lol.. 🙂

[normal pagoda]

Il see what I can do

Unless there’s someway to refuel my ship?

[quartz kelp]

no clue. I found my ship, got the "this won't work, there must be another way off this planet" and got the hint that ships weren't going to be used in this expedition

[normal pagoda]

Oh

[inner wedge]

uranium is launcher fuel

[safe ravine]

What is this thing? 😮

[normal pagoda]

Can’t put that in, the slot to insert fuel is greyed iut

[normal pagoda]

I believe there is a lore terminal at one side

[ember helm]

Boundary Failure

interact with the terminal for some lore, other than that, it's just to look at

[dark holly]

Wait really?

[safe ravine]

Ohh ok, ty. Couldn't see a terminal at first and sentinels keep bugging me. Thx

[ember helm]

yes, the expedition is on one planet entirely this time

you get your ship autorepaired at the very end

[dark holly]

Yippee

[quartz kelp]

Yes, the whole expedition is about the Colossus

[dark holly]

Yippee

[normal pagoda]

So how common are the waste processing plants?

[stuck berry]

Try using the quick menu instead

[normal pagoda]

What’s that

[golden ridge]

Ik the Colossus is very slow but does anyone have a guide on how to max its speed?

[dark holly]

I just want the legs

[stuck berry]

Common enough to be scanned nearly first try when on any salvageables crap world

you must use your exocraft radar's quick menu optiobn

[normal pagoda]

But the one for the expedition is tethered to the one you spawn at

[quartz kelp]

they're still in the expedition world

[stuck berry]

That doesn't mean there's only those on it

[normal pagoda]

I know there’s more than one buts it’s like searching for a needle in a haystack

I have an idea

[stuck berry]

I'd advise restarting, or enabling multiplayer and going to where players are, or following latitude/longitude coords to the site you need to reach specifically

[quartz kelp]

they are trying to avoid the 3 hour journey back to the main one

[silk bane]

First expedition, should I start a new save for this or use my current?

[normal pagoda]

On switch so no multiplayer right?

[quartz kelp]

I always start a new save for my expeditions

[stuck berry]

Switch 1 lacks MP

[silk bane]

why do people do this?

[normal pagoda]

Got it

[normal pagoda]

It gives a more accurate experience

[quartz kelp]

I find it more immersive?

[stuck berry]

You can still get an equally "intended" experience by just not sending yourself stuff

[normal pagoda]

Can I reset a restore point

Back to where I started?

[stuck berry]

You would go back to where you last exited your starship/interacted with a save point/beacon/waypoint

[normal pagoda]

Damn

So no way to remove that restore point?

[vale thicket]

Not exactly a question for no man sky itself but rather for the server, is there a specific place to put clips from no man sky

[stuck berry]

It overwrites the previous one, so the data is truly lost

[stuck berry]

#nms-media

[normal pagoda]

Damn

[vale thicket]

Thanks

[normal pagoda]

Oh my god I did it

I recharged my ship

I got into the ship and used the quick menu

[pure lily]

Okay so I'm still having the major bug where I cannot claim the Pirate Dreadnought for free

This is the second time I've beaten them and I can only purchase the freighter and not seize it

[stuck berry]

Then I would advise reporting that bug, I have not personally identified a cause/workaround

!hg

[tulip dust]

Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[pure lily]

I've already submitted the report before but no response

[stuck berry]

It's not the kind of issue that would have a response

99% of issues don't require responses, so they don't get any

only those pertaining to save-specific issues will usually get a response

[pure lily]

Fair enough, it's just extremely immersion breaking for me

Okay and the bug is worse than I thought. After taking off from the Pirate Dreadnought my corvette is completely bugged. Weapon fire from my corvette is not even originating from the ship

[pure lily]

Switched starships to my fighter, destroyed the dreadnought. Went back into my corvette and now it's completely bugged saying the dreadnought is still active yet its nowhere. Only sign is pirate fighters still being around and spawning in.

[short heart]

How long does it take waste deposits to respawn?

[clever creek]

how exactly do I continue with the expedition if I cant build colossus bay anywhere because its all bases? I already turned multiplayer off and reported all of them

[pine drum]

Are you BKs replacement? XD

Anyway, just saw the new update, my game will take a while to update because bad Internet.

Where should I go to look for the new content, do the planets have a new thing that signifies where the new content is, or is it found on all planets just like crashed ships. Thanks 🧡

[digital vessel]

Are the devs aware of the Xbox issues? I do not mean this as a rude comment just a literal question

[pine drum]

One that I'm not sure if it's a widespread issue, is my discovery list gets messed up for me from time to time, it's quite frustrating.

[jolly basin]

Anyone else having an issue with the charting building challenge for the new expedition?

[short heart]

The waste deposit stuff is on planets with salvageable scrap

[stuck berry]

Go to Iteration: Eos aboard the Space Anomaly and purchase the blueprint for the Gravitino Coil, installing that should begin the tutorial mission for the new system added

the new waste stuff and their processing facilities are only found on worlds with Salvageable Scrap as a resource

[dire badge]

Is this supposed to happen? I don’t think it is supposed to. 😅

[whole harness]

Did my planet glitch after the update. I had a planet that said salvagable scrap on the planet view menu, but no longer. Theres still salvage scrap icons everywhere and even the new industrial waste can be found. And unless im unlucky I cant find any trash heaps or processing centers on the planet either

[stuck berry]

Salvageable Scrap status did reroll with 6.20

Most worlds with it before will not still have it

[whole harness]

Wut the..

[stuck berry]

Many of these worlds and others do have scrap on them, but not the facilities to process it

I don't know why the latter part is the case, so it might be a bug, but the former part may be due to the possibility of them excluding dead worlds due to them not being able to have inhabited structures on them

I have heard one person say that they found a dead world with salvageable scrap post-6.20, but it was not confirmed

[whole harness]

Hm...mine is alive and active. I have a settlement on it

[stuck berry]

Yes, that isn't related

The reroll affects all planets that had it before

one small refactored variable and everything has it's chances redone

[whole harness]

Along with everything else that happened to it, the discoveries added 13 extinct species and I have to re-scan mostly everything xD welp..Thanks, ig having a undetectable planet from space that does actually have salvage containers still is cool in itself

[raven elm]

I’ve charted more than six waypoint beacons but it says only 3/6 any reason why ?

[stuck berry]

See the pins in #nms-expedition

[pine drum]

Thanks

[pine drum]

Thanks

[digital vessel]

Can I get the incinerator , flat bed and the wheels in normal gameplay not the expedition I’ve done some testing normal game and play through is fine expedition for me tho is not

[dark holly]

Im pretty sure you can yeah

[prime sage]

Yes. But you wont be able to get the spiders legs or asymmetrical cabin

[digital vessel]

Ok sweet I’m just gonna wait till the fix the crashing issues to do the expedition then

[dark holly]

Same

[prime sage]

Smart, lol

[digital vessel]

Yea cause I only play on 1 save

[dark holly]

I am the lorax i speak for the trees, ah shit they are speaking vietnamese

[digital vessel]

Don’t need to worry about other stuff

[prime sage]

Expedition is rough right now

[digital vessel]

I am the Lorax I speak for the trees cut one down I’ll break your knees

[digital vessel]

It is

[fickle spade]

Has anyone built a covette to transport there colossus around in? For salvaging scrap. I built one and loaded colossus onboard but it leaves the colossus behind on take off. Or haves anyone loaded scrap onto a corvette and transported it to refining station.

[stuck berry]

It's not something that can be done.

[digital vessel]

The scrap in the vettes my be possible

[fickle spade]

Yeah after a few failed attempts i realise it. About to try and load the scrap onto covette

[sacred bluff]

Question here can I use the furnace attachment to work towards the rewards parts?

[dark holly]

Wdym

[sacred bluff]

Like if I toss all the waist in the back of the furnace on the colossus does it count towards the unlockable parts like the tank tracks and stuff

[stuck berry]

It should, at least for scrap

As long as it counts for the overall thing in that persistent mission

[sacred bluff]

The scrap number is going up but the others are not big sad

[quartz bear]

anyone phase 5 milstone field guide not counting all the registered creatures?

[stuck berry]

Claim the nanite reward in the discoveries menu, at the top of the planet's fauna list

[quartz bear]

thx

[steady jetty]

Are things you put in your furnace module on colossus not supposed to count for stats and progression?

Bc they’re not counting and I wanna know if that’s a bug or not

[bright hull]

I am stranded 3 hours away from the remnant objective zone, cannot build a base computer or teleporter, wth do I do?

[dull salmon]

any fix to get "roadsigns" mission in expedition to work?

[balmy adder]

has been fixed in experimental version
Fixed an issue in the Remnant expedition that could prevent waypoints to fail to count towards the Roadsigns milestone.

Meanwhile try it with Multiplayer disabled

[sacred bluff]

Am trying to figure this out

[native stump]

You have to drive unfortunately

I believe so at least

[native stump]

You just have to claim the nanites for discovery in discoveries tab

[quartz bear]

anyone know where all 8 of the minerals are? I found 7 of the 8

[spice kelp]

Has anyone else been seeing some visual bugs, such as the glowing parts of the rings on the Iron Vulture?

[pure lily]

Considering the Outlaws faction, is the only "moral" way (i.e. maintain standing with other races) to increase ranking with the Outlaws through pirate hunting contracts? (no spoilers if possible please as I am a new/returning player)

[charred gulch]

trading post cant buy ship from thgere? or is it banned?

anyone?

[pure lily]

Wdym exactly?

[charred gulch]

in epedtion 21 still 1hour drive left to trading post.. cant i trade ship from it?

[pure lily]

Ah, I wouldn't know my apologies.

[spice kelp]

Trading/buying a ship is unavailable till you complete the expedition, then your ship is fixed and available to call in

[quartz bear]

Still can't find the 8th mineral for the expedition

[austere phoenix]

Anyone know when the Xbox patch is coming?

[west relic]

completing the 5 rendezvous/haul specialised waste milestones was enough for me to unlock my ship, repaired it, flew to another planet and scanned a mineral there to finish that

[ivory dawn]

hey all, does anbody know how long does industrial scrap take to respawn

i'm having a hard time getting 500 for the furnace

[ivory dawn]

just keep trying different buildings

[west relic]

they have to be "undiscovered" to count, turn off multiplayer

[timber niche]

personally i just intentionally tanked my standing with one of the races to max out outlaws standing
theres goals and stuff for stealing cargo from freighters so if you plan to max out all of that youd need to lose standing with another race in some way or another

[weak jackal]

Anyone have tips on figuring out which starship type fits their playstyle?

[left jungle]

So waypoint beacons are the antenna outside of buildings right?

[ivory dawn]

yes

[left jungle]

Then it seems roadsigns isn't working for me or I'm doing it wrong?

[pure lily]

Has anybody found a fix for the Pirate Dreadnought bug?

I found an A class and I still can't claim it

[upper thunder]

its not working for most people

[left jungle]

Lovely...

[timber niche]

its buggy and a bunch of them just wont count afaik
theres some tips for it pinned in #nms-expedition

[pure lily]

It states I must pay 134M units to acquire

It's quite frustrating at this point as this is the 3rd time

[west relic]

anyone else noticed the quadruped colossus gear getting stuck on small crap like hydrogen crystals?

[timber niche]

yeah it does that
something about it lowers the hitbox of the truck so far that it gets caught on them

hopefully thats a bug and it gets patched

[pure lily]

^? Please if anyone knows any fix of any sort

[west relic]

i hope so too

[west relic]

were you flying a corvette?

[thin frost]

Do we know how much industrial waste is needed to achieve titles/modules?

[pure lily]

Yes

My primary starship is my corvette

[west relic]

seems to be the root cause, i think you need to capture the pirate freighter in a regular ship for it to work

[pure lily]

Damn, gotchu. There's just been so many corvette bugs.

Quite a shame since it's my favorite game component.

[grave moat]

Anyone has the corrd or glypsh of the expedition 21 remnant planet/system?
I promised to hop in with my bro next tuesday, but I accidentally finished the expedition solo last night thinking I could re do the expedition in exTerminal (I could not)

[timber niche]

afaik even if you tp there

you wouldnt be able to like

multiplayer with people in expedition

while ur not in it

[grave moat]

true?

[timber niche]

im not like 100% sure
but when i tried earlier i wasnt able to

[grave moat]

can I maybe try? can you help me out with the directory?

coords, glypsh I mean

[timber niche]

yeah may as well go tp there and check

those shd be the glyphs

[grave moat]

yo, that shid was so cool parsing glysh via discord emote

lmao

luv you

[pure lily]

Nope corvette was not the issue. Did the whole event in a fighter starship and I still have to purchase the Dreadnought.

[scarlet loom]

is the flatbed only platform we can use to haul industrial waste

or is there other options

[grave moat]

by walking will do

[west relic]

Is there a clue how to unlock the rest of the colossus' customisation options?

[west relic]

thanks!

[elfin urchin]

How to fix the super nova effects when using jetpack and character appearance bugs after latest update, or will we have to wait for HG to fix?

[pure lily]

Has nobody else been getting the Pirate Dreadnought bug that I've repeatedly encountered?

Nvm I see that people on console and macOS are having this issue

[twilit rain]

i want to buy the game but im pretty unsure, how is the gameplay loop? is space in the game really that big? and how is VR support? are the ships in the videos really that big and is it actually possible to pilot them?

[upper thunder]

does the legs make you more stable?

like over small bumps or so

[timber niche]

i feel like it does
no idea if its an actual feature or just placebo but it feels less bumpy with them

[upper thunder]

i'll check the wiki

ok, so nothing in the wiki

[signal cedar]

what "super nova effects" and apperance bugs, you gotta be more specific

You can provide screenshots in this channel for purpose of getting help

[signal cedar]

also, what bug, please be more specific

[pure lily]

Look at prev msgs using search function.

[signal cedar]

NMS is an exploration focused game with elements of combat, trading, crafting, base building, primarly a single player sandbox-like experience

... or you could link the message in question yourself

[signal cedar]

they do but keep in mind they tend to get stuck on some small crystals

so you might wanna drive / walk around them

[pure lily]

It's already awaiting a resolution anyways as there are others who are having the same issue.

Basically the Pirate Dreadnought is unable to be seized and must be purchased in full after the event.

Furthermore interacting with the Dreadnought within a corvette is bugged in visuals and weapon firing origin.

[twilit rain]

sick, then ill buy it and try it out then

[signal cedar]

ok, that is some details, checked the Steam experimental branch patch notes but I dont see anything related to either dreadnoughts or corvettes

I'd recommend reporting this issue to HG if you haven't already

[pure lily]

I have already

^Here is the full convo with images attached if you want to take a look.

FYI this was the first occurence (I've now experienced it 3 times with no fail).

[bronze oxide]

What is your bug

I had one where I blew it up after it surrendered but didnt get anything

Is this what you mean?

[unborn brook]

I somehow have two corvettes ... one of which seems to be bugged to where I can't enter it ... If I trade the bugged one away will I be able to create a 2nd corvette?

[sacred nova]

Anyone know what's up with the chart way points milestone? I've tried turning multi player off and it's still not registering when I find them

[pure lily]

Nah, I linked the convo describing the issue

[river canyon]

Known bug, patched in the experimental branch

[sacred nova]

What's the experimental branch? 🤣

[quartz bear]

anyone notice how easily the cyclops with the legs gets stuck on anything?

[river canyon]

It's where they push hotfixes before releasing to all platforms, you can only access it via Steam

[sacred nova]

Yeaaah avoid hydrogen crystals 🤣

[quartz bear]

for me ist literally everything

even when I spawn it after its stuck its stuck in the ground

[sacred nova]

Ohh I had that issue aswell, just keep respwaning it, sometimes I had to flatten the ground first

[quartz bear]

whelp gotta wait for the crash to go through. for the second time.

[bitter rapids]

is that a bug?

[river dirge]

Hey, I'm just wondering if there's a way to use text chat on ps5 so I can communicate with others in the atlas station?

[gray shoal]

Consoles dont have txt chat

[dark holly]

Sadly

[river dirge]

Hopefully they'll add it in an update at somepoint so I can beg others for good loot lol

[dark holly]

lol

[olive terrace]

how do I unlock the flatbed and furnace chassis modules?

[olive terrace]

thanks

[dark holly]

Np

[grave moat]

withing expedition, yes. post expedition when you want the colossus upgrade then hear me out... make a Hauling corvette

worth the risk of clang

[pulsar jacinth]

You can't haul waste in a corvette afaik

[grave moat]

I am gonna try it

[pulsar jacinth]

Good luck

[grave moat]

bet

[timber shale]

new planet look?

[grave moat]

fook, there a code check to force waste to clip through corvette

hg let me do it and decided to check if I do it and have a specific command to ruin it

clearly directed feature

[grave moat]

I seen familiar before, how you know it new?

[dreamy eagle]

anyone know how to finish the roadsigns milestone its been stuck at 3 for 2 days

[river canyon]

Known bug, patched in the experimental branch

You could try turning off multiplayer if it isn't already, I've heard mixed results so not sure if that will actually do anything

[dreamy eagle]

ahh ill have to wait for a bug fix then

[drowsy elbow]

you can make any multitool upgraded to S right? you dont have to find one at S for the best stats?

[grave moat]

wdym by make S tier upgrade?

[drowsy elbow]

can you make any multitool S

[grave moat]

there are other "tech upgrade" that is rated S tier but they are not the "3 upgrade into core of the tool" stuff

I dont think you can make any of that upgrade tech for suit/ship/tool

you just get or/and buy them

what you can make is the funtionality upgrade, and they could graded differencely

and are fixed at that grade

[vapid radish]

yeah with nanites you can upgrade multitool's class but they get VERY expensive, just like how ships work

[grave moat]

oh the multitool itself? lmao

[drowsy elbow]

so any crap multitool can become the best S multitool

[grave moat]

sorry

multitool have it own base stat is it not?

you can make it best of it kind, but not best multitool I think

[gray shoal]

Any mt will handle what game can throw at u.

But if u want minmax thats a diffrent story

[vapid radish]

no, you wont know the positions of the supercharged slots until after it's S class, so if you want one with 4 connected supercharged slots you want to get one that's already S class or that you know has them when upgraded into S class

[sudden apex]

If you want a good one you need to watch the supercharged Layout though

[drowsy elbow]

alright, thanks

[pure lily]

Okay I have no idea what is going on but I defeated a Pirate Dreadnought, went into space station, tried to edit my corvette but game was bugged out. I reload and I'm stuck in space.

I can't even call a recovery starship

[vapid radish]

but if you just want a basic S class and don't care about minmaxing supercharged slot layout then sure

[grave moat]

shutdown your hazard protection and embrace the dark space?

[drowsy elbow]

hopefully multitool customization will come

[pure lily]

I can't even reload last restore point

[hollow berry]

Neither auto save nor manual save?

[pure lily]

Wtaf

[pure lily]

Neither

I am legit stuck in space

[grave moat]

then just shut the game down and load it again

it sound like your game is not working, not the saves

[hollow berry]

Use the save editor perhaps

[grave moat]

so restart it should be an option, you may find yourself on station after

[pure lily]

Bruh this is both hilarious and infuriating lmao

[grave moat]

yeah the game is refusing to load save, so shut the entire game down

restart

[pure lily]

Yeah doing that rn

Okay all's good now

😂

Ngl I was fully prepared to fly through space to the nearest planet

[hollow berry]

Is it a permadeath?

[pure lily]

Nah it's not but I'm unfamiliar with what happens in a reg save death

So didn't wanna risk it

[bright walrus]

Yall i got a question,im at the expedition mission where u gotta scan 2 new species thru the colossus but the issue is i already scanned 5 out of 6 species before that,so how do i do it

[grave moat]

you can still do it

[hollow berry]

I think you can just go to the place where you died, but i never died so idk how it works, especially with a bug like that where a whole station disappears

[river canyon]

Should complete once they are all scanned

[bright walrus]

Even if its just one that i do thru the colossus?

[river canyon]

Yep

[bright walrus]

Alr thanks

[grave moat]

you dont even need to actually scan with the colosus, I get in the same case and I was just scanning the last animal with my hand multitool for the sake of it and the mission just finished

had to submit completion in the discovery page later also

[wanton gale]

When will the unbearable crashing on xbox will stop?

[gray shoal]

When they will fix it

[bright walrus]

Ah i see,nah i just finished it and i scanned the last guy with the colossus

[wanton gale]

Get out space station= crash
Use teleporter=crash
USE MY SCANNER=CRASH

[gray shoal]

Report and wait for patch

[native ruin]

i have a problem my game would not save no matter what i did it just wouldnt save and i didnt turn off my pc because of it but it turned off and i had made so much progress is their anyway of getting it back

[grave moat]

I dont understand you, but let put it in the most dire situation, you can go to google and search nsm save edditor
go to the github page and get the newest releast, (while the game still running) follow github guide and use that to access your save
then create a new save from your save and name them differenly using that edittor

[native ruin]

yes but my stuff is already gone would my old save still be somewhere in the files somehow because as i said the game never let me save

[grave moat]

if your game is "truely" not saving, then this wont help, this only assume your game has problem telling you it is saving

[grave moat]

:0 oh if it actually gone then it gone then

[native ruin]

dang that sucks

[grave moat]

sadly, the list of auto save are the only thing that exist, you wont find any buffer of the save unless you are somesort of expert engineer who has the tool to cut open your cpu

try to check each of then out before continueing playing is the only hope

[latent wren]

Anyone else's game on xbox freezing constantly?

[native ruin]

could anyone give me some compensation cash lol

[wanton gale]

Mine is crashing

Like

Every 1m

If I teleport

To any other teleporter

Or you know just USE MY SPACESHIP

Getting S classes was allrady annoying now it's extra

With these crashing

No date lose for me at least

[latent wren]

Do you have multiplayer turned on?

[wanton gale]

nope

[latent wren]

Me neither

[wanton gale]

Gone from rarely crashing within like 8 hours to literally constantly

[latent wren]

I have froze 2x in 5mins

[pure lily]

Just tip for people (so you don't do what I just did). If you are editing or creating your corvette. Make sure your inventory is practically free as if it isn't you could lose your corvette pieces.

I thought after cancelling creation they would stay in the workshop cache. They did not. They went straight to my exosuit inventory (which is almost full) and I ended up losing A LOT of corvette pieces.

So do not do what I just did 👍

[latent wren]

Just froze again flying into the anomely, I will try later, this is messing with my ADHD badly

[wanton gale]

People said they will fix it this week or Monday

That what I've heard

The update was very unoptimized for console

[sudden apex]

They are making a Break for the weekend

[latent wren]

How long is the new expedition?

[sudden apex]

Long

[drowsy elbow]

where does one get the other wheel options for the colossus

[gray shoal]

All expeditions take around 6-8h

[gray shoal]

Dispose 50 waste per type

[drowsy elbow]

i dont think i want it that much

[wanton gale]

My game is fighting for its life to not crash on this random planet

[tulip dust]

@wanton gale

No gifs in this channel please

[sudden apex]

.

[drowsy elbow]

useful, thanks

ok ill go for it. i want tracks

what about the shovel front thing

i assume part of the initial quest

[sudden apex]

You can just build IT after unlocking IT in the anomaly

[quartz bear]

how do I leave the expedation and return to normal game?

[echo hound]

Go to the space anomaly, use the expedition terminal

[quartz bear]

how would I get to it? I can't summon it

[gray shoal]

From options

[proud tendon]

I'm about to start my first expedition. Whats generally good idea to take with me as this starting technology/cargo?

[echo hound]

you need to summon your ship (X). Then go into space and summon it

[gray shoal]

This time cant take anything bc whole exp is on 1 planet and u have no ship unitll u complete it

[echo hound]

Eh, i didnt take anything tbh. Grab som oxygen and a lot of carbon maybe

[ivory dawn]

cant summon ships till the end of this one

[echo hound]

Oh fr

[proud tendon]

ah

[echo hound]

@quartz bear Ur cooked bro

good luck

[quartz bear]

Im at the end and got the ship but it won't let me summon anomaly

[gray shoal]

Jump 1 time

[echo hound]

Can we get chance buff on these plase lmao

[pine drum]

Hey, is crashing on xbox a known issue? I've literally crashed 3 times in 20 minutes, it's unplayable. If there is a known issue causing this, it there an eta for a fix?

[ivory dawn]

i finished yesterday, i flew into space and it worked for me

[echo hound]

same

[cosmic onyx]

guys, if i finished expedition, should i get flatbad on my truck? it's still locked by some reason 🤔

[echo hound]

you need to redo it in your normal save

just scrap 1 piece

itll show up as a mission

[dark arch]

guys is there some known bug or issue in general about PC version not connecting to the servers? I tried for 2 days and i can't start the expedition because o that

[ivory dawn]

go to a planet with salvage scrop and grind some waste

[cosmic onyx]

just throw some regular salvage?

[echo hound]

yup

youll need to find a processing plant in the system your homebase is in when you warp there

[ivory dawn]

then it costs 200 for the furnace 😛

i just got mine

[echo hound]

i dont even want the furnace, i want the wheels and stuff, but they really went lets make this as rare as possible to find so no one can get them

[ivory dawn]

yup, they need 50 of the special scrap each wheel set needs different type

[ornate cargo]

So i found these three aliens aura farming in an Atlas station, what does this mean?

[swift sand]

not that i'm aware of sorry. so you mean that in save discoveries menu, lower left, the connection to ODS server is down?

[echo hound]

im going to go insane. Wait can you use the big furnace to process special waste?

[echo hound]

Death Stranding reference perchance?

[swift sand]

representative of the 3 main races in nms

just one of the possible atlas stations interior scenes

[ornate cargo]

I see

[ivory dawn]

i was wondering the same, i dont think so

[echo hound]

Ofc...ofc.

[ornate cargo]

Oh yeah, a gek, a korvex and a vy'keen

Its kinda fire

[echo hound]

Btw anyine know how to get the plow AFTER the expedition?

[ornate cargo]

Plow?

[echo hound]

Excavation blade

[gray shoal]

Anomaly exo tech vendor

[ornate cargo]

Oh

[echo hound]

Gracias amigo

[ornate cargo]

What @gray shoal said

[ivory dawn]

i think if you want special waste, you need the flat bed?

[gray shoal]

De nada

[echo hound]

All i need it multiple waste dump locations. But i can only ping 1 for some reason

[swift sand]

try to restart game then scan again

[ivory dawn]

i tried to use two recycle facilities, but i couldnt get another one to sh in the scanner 🙁
they dont respawn waste often too

[echo hound]

this is day 2 of trying on many restarts

they are impossibly far apart to detect

[honest glade]

Yup, seems like quite alot of people have issues on xbox rn

[echo hound]

its a pitty

[ornate cargo]

What will happen when i go into this black hole?

[echo hound]

if you go with your ship itll take you to another system. If you spacewalk its just a png

[ivory dawn]

i think everything breaks

[ornate cargo]

I see, but do all my tech and upgrades break like what happens when you go through a galaxy core?

Alr ty

[swift sand]

not when bh warping, not anymore @ivory dawn

[ivory dawn]

ok i havent tried it yet, i read it tho?

[ornate cargo]

I just went through and im lime 800,000ly away from where i was

Pretty awesome

[regal lantern]

is it worth recovering ships like this?

[ivory dawn]

after the new beginnings i was scared of if happening again lol

[heady obsidian]

Hi one question, how do you change exocraft turning from mouse to WASD?

[ornate cargo]

Its c class, so i wouldnt do that

[swift sand]

#nms-modding only

[ornate cargo]

You could repair only the necessary parts and use it to warp through galaxy cores

[swift sand]

kinda depends, only if you really like how it looks, and if you wanted a project, would it be worth it to fix all. that said, many players just simply claim crashed ships, fix launch thruster+pulse engine so that they can quick menu summon it later at a station to scrap it for resources and upgrades (starship outfiting terminal: in regular stations, in the back, left of fabricator)

[ornate cargo]

I just did that with this one

[regal lantern]

is there way to "unclaim" your ships then? and what would i get for scrapping ships

[swift sand]

scrapping is a way of "unclaiming", basically getting rid of the ship getting a ship slot back (we can have up to 12 active ships in the quick menu). as mentioned, resources and upgrades: some of those items make up the scrap value in units, others will be upgrades to use in your other ships like storage augmentation module (inventory upgrade, tech or cargo depending which inventory you apply it to) and/or upgrade modules. storage augs and modules can be used, but if you dont want the modules can just sell them for nanites

[regal lantern]

woah, alrighty. Thank you for the info!

[night badger]

why are most planets fleshy

[swift sand]

"fleshy"? just how the terrain patch texture was made. usually see it in irradiated biome planets

[ornate osprey]

Is it just me or has any else's game been crashing since the new update?

[swift sand]

what platform are you on?

[ornate osprey]

Xbox

[dark arch]

in the main menu, it says connection to the servers failed, however when i hope on my main save, discovery services are active

[swift sand]

yep, lots of other players been reporting crashes on xbox

[swift sand]

goto anomaly in your main save, interact with expedition terminus, what do you see?

[dark arch]

lemme try

[ornate osprey]

Thats good to know thats its not my xbox breaking

[dark arch]

it says "no expedition available"

[honest glade]

I changed the graphic settings from performance to quality. Disabled multiplayer and now it works. Didnt crash since i made that change

[swift sand]

are you on steam?

[dark arch]

yep

[ornate osprey]

Yea i changed it from quality to performance and it hasn't crashed yet

[swift sand]

sounds like a connection issue, i didnt have any problem seeing it. what's the numbers you see in the main menu, lower left of the screen?

thanks for sharing that @honest glade @ornate osprey, will keep it in mind to suggest to other players

[dark arch]

161038 (4204)

[past onyx]

Do i have to build another landing platform to keep my other ship from despawning?

[obtuse moat]

Anyone having trouble retrieving the twitch rewards form the streams?

I know I have my nms and twitch connected and it says I've gotten rewards but can't find em in game. :P

[swift sand]

i guess i'd try 1) verify game file integrity and trying again 2) restarting home router and after it reboots, clear dns cache and reboot machine. 3) if that still doesn't recover the connection, i'd suggest going ahead and deleting save folder\cache\SEASON_DATA_CACHE.JSON file, and launching the game again. 4) if that still doesnt work, feel free to ping me in dm and i can send you the updated SEASON_DATA_CACHE.JSON file for your game to use

[dark arch]

i'll try the different methods, thanks

[swift sand]

after a reload/restart or leaving the system, the game will always despawn secondary ships, i.e. not the equipped ship - unless you're in your freighter hanger

[swift sand]

did you goto anomaly, quicksilver shop, collect twitch rewards

[past onyx]

I see. Right.

[paper bear]

got a question, i claimed a broken ship. its thrusters and launch equipment are screwed

is there anyway i can summon it to me to fix because i cant find it now

[obtuse moat]

I'll do a quick double check just to be sure I'm not stoopid

[swift sand]

if you own a freighter and have 6 or less active ships, just resummon freighter, it will be in the hanger. if not, see next post from gunter

[tulip dust]

@paper bear see below
-# to view info below, enable embeds

Can't summon a ship?

If you save+reload restore point at a planet base, you should then be allowed to quick menu/summon any of your ships, regardless of state.

This is a failsafe added by the devs to ensure players never lose ships in their collection.

Shared by: bkay201 Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[paper bear]

okay im early game so i dont have a freighter yet

[swift sand]

were you logged in the game while watching? may need to restart game

[paper bear]

but i gguess ill hold off on fixing it until i have a freighter

[swift sand]

as mentioned, see the gunter post above

[obtuse moat]

Yea I think that was it cause it's showing the option to collect twitch rewards now :P

[hazy berry]

has anyone gotten their twitch rewards? last i checked i didnt have them yeat

[swift sand]

accounts were linked, claimed them in twitch, restarted game, claimed them from quicksilver shop/collect twitch rewards?

[hazy berry]

accoiunt were linked, restarted the game (yedterday i was able to be online last time) but they were not in the quicksilver merchant yeat

propably today

[paper bear]

must be doing something wrong. ill be honest ive neverr played this game before i placed down a base beacon and everything, area is claimed

ship is nearby i got in got out

[hazy berry]

and claimed on twitch ofcourse

[paper bear]

and i cant summon my damaged ship

[bitter drum]

Anyway to text chat in NMS on PS5 in 2026?

[regal lantern]

is this worth getting or should i aim for higher class instead?

[swift sand]

now options menu, reload restore point

[swift sand]

besides using voice to text, no

[hollow plank]

[swift sand]

correct

[paper bear]

worked, awesome thanks legend

[hazy berry]

if i remember correctly you can upgrade the class of your multitool, so if you like to desing go for it

[oak flint]

Anyone having crashes still I'm not in expedition anymore and I'm still having constant crashes

[swift sand]

xbox?

[oak flint]

Yeah

[swift sand]

try changing graphics from quality to performance, or vice versa

[oak flint]

Alright I'll give that a go

[hollow plank]

One more question, switch does get access to expeditions and new content drops?

[brazen flame]

is there a formula for how many solar panels and batteries i need in contrast to my total powerconsumption

or a calculator

[swift sand]

yes. that said, it is a lower powered platform, and as such, sometimes compromises are made. e.g. it doesn't have npc settlements (small village-like locations that we can manage), but it does have corvettes (a ship type we can build; took the devs months to work them in into switch 1 🤩 )

[brazen flame]

atp ill just write a script

nvm

[swift sand]

2 panels+1 battery for every 50kps of power needed at the base

[pseudo kettle]

GENUINLY DO I NEED TO REDO THE FUCKING EXPEDITION?

[swift sand]

!power 100

[tulip dust]

@swift sand

For a power consumption of 100 kPs you will require:

**4 ** Solar Panels
**2 ** Batteries

[brazen flame]

perfect okay

[hollow plank]

Ty sir!

[brazen flame]

wait htats actually pretty good

[swift sand]

did you click the additional nanite reward button

and dont caps.

[brazen flame]

so for a base terminus id theoretically only need 1 bat 1 panel?

even lkess tehcnically

[swift sand]

nah, make it 2 panels+1 battery. that's the minimum.

[pseudo kettle]

I just did that and it ditn work

[brazen flame]

h okay it scales like that

also is there a way to see your bases total power consumption

[swift sand]

1 panel powers the base, the other charges the battery

[tame furnace]

has anyone been experiencing lag spikes that last like 30 seconds or longer after scanning? my pc is pretty good but it drops to like 10 fps

[brazen flame]

oh does nms automatically route power like that?

[swift sand]

hook everything up, interact with a battery for example

[pseudo kettle]

oh nvm there it is

guys its working now ty for helping

[swift sand]

after quick scanning using colossus?

[tame furnace]

yes

[swift sand]

i definitely see jitter while panning the mouse/stutter while the quick scan added icons are there

once icons are deleted from HUD, smoothness returns

noticed this yesterday actually

had not noticed it before, i think it was something that didnt come with 6.20

i'll have to report that, but first i want to see if it happens with a controller

[swift sand]

yep yep

[brazen flame]

nice perfect

[reef wave]

is there a way to disable the black screen when leaving a vehicle? (in first person)

[swift sand]

i mean solar panels work even when buried or underwater lol

[tall cypress]

xbox crashes not fixed? multiplayer off, cannot change graphics on xbox X

[swift sand]

nope

[tall cypress]

sad

[swift sand]

are you playing vr perhaps? on pc?

[reef wave]

pc

when im in first person, leaving a vehicle causes a black screen to fade

when in third person there is no black screen

its getting annoying

[swift sand]

yeah sounds like a bug; not seeing any patch on steam experimental branch to fix that, so i'd suggest going ahead and submitting a bug report

!hg

[tulip dust]

Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[reef wave]

i dont think its a bug

[swift sand]

ofc, dont test running mods

[reef wave]

hold on let mer VIDEO

[reef wave]

no mods

oops caps

[winged berry]

Expedition phase 3 with logging the waypoints is not working. I have been to 5 waypoints and none of them have counted. Any recommendations?

[swift sand]

i mean - maybe not a bug, but i dont think that's intended

[reef wave]

this

[swift sand]

this worked for some players:

be sure to have mp disabled, save+return to main menu+reload save if you had it enabled, make sure to have the right milestone selected, if needed try to upload waypoint discovery.
if still not working, wait for the next public patch, there's a fix for this on steam experimental branch atm

[swift sand]

sure, yeah, i mean, part of a transition, maybe because you have transitions set to fade to black instead of fade to white. but this isn't how ships perform for example

[swift sand]

that's why i think it's a bug

[reef wave]

in third person

[winged berry]

Thanks I will try that.

[swift sand]

well, in 3rd person there's really no need to transition

[reef wave]

yeah

its just annoying

because you can really see where your character will be

[swift sand]

anyway, submit feedback for example

[reef wave]

sure

[devout mist]

I'm stuck at a far away Trading Post during the expedition and there's no way to get a ship to fly away. The nearest Save Beacon is 2 hours away by Colossus.

I need someone to make me a terminus so I can teleport back to the main expedition area.

[swift sand]

nearest save beacon? you can build save beacon/save point yourself

[devout mist]

sorry i explained it wrong

i'm 4 hours away from the main mission area

forget the save beacon

i can't get back to the mission

[swift sand]

what milestone are you trying to do atm/what milestone do you have selected?

[devout mist]

i'm on phase 4

[echo hound]

No Mans Sky FPS dropping overtime, that normal?

[true basalt]

Anyone having issues building the exocraft (on ps5 pro)? I disabled multiplayer and completely restarted, but bases are still showing and cannot build anywhere at all. I've even ran around reporting all bases within site and still no dice. I'm starting to think that my expedition might be busted.

[swift sand]

some people complain about that, i was never able to repro it

[swift sand]

I disabled multiplayer and completely restarted
disabling mp wont prevent game from downloading server uploaded bases
only going completely offline or firewall blocking game would prevent it

[swift sand]

milestone

[past onyx]

Can i recompare my current ships stats to one of my others

[true basalt]

Ahhh, every reddit post that I found was people saying that fixed it for them, let me unplug ye old ethernet cable.

[swift sand]

not in a nice UI - hop in one ship, see stats, hop in another see stats

[echo hound]

Btw the furnace chassis turns toxic, explosive and radioactive waste into nanites. Does this count toward the whole process 50 X to get X for the colossus?

[swift sand]

sorry, dont know

[echo hound]

feck

[swift sand]

you should be able to count that progress i guess

[devout mist]

Phase 4 -> Milestone 1 (scan minerals)

[echo hound]

the mission is stuck thats why i ask, its not updating

[swift sand]

so you just need to cyclopes scope scan minerals on the planet, anywhere on the planet, there's no expedition area for that

[brisk creek]

Does anybody else's game keep on crashing on xbox

[swift sand]

yes, try changing graphics from quality to performance or vice versa

[devout mist]

What about the Milestone(s) that do? Like Phase 4 -> Milestone 6 (reach the 4th waste heap)?

[brisk creek]

Ok

[true basalt]

No dice, system is completely offline and bases are still showing with the same no edit permissions message.

[swift sand]

you'll just have that milestone selected, use the exocraft radar to scan for another heap

[swift sand]

because they're cached in your save file - move, eventually you'll have to find an area that doesnt have any, because the game cant download any new ones

[devout mist]

I just did and it says it's 4 hours away.,...

😿

[pine drum]

BK!!! Hi, I'm sad I can't play the new update. 😔 The game keeps crashing, do you think there will be a patch before next weekend?

[pine drum]

Fly?

[brisk creek]

Didn't work

[devout mist]

I don't have a ship

[swift sand]

save+restart game completely. rescan. start heading that way, use exocraft visor to look for other heap icons, keep rescanning

[true basalt]

That actually makes perfect sense. Big 🧠 info being dropped on me here. Appreciate the help, I'll just boot up on PC and try it there

[swift sand]

sorry, no further suggestions, submit bug report, wait for next patch to fix it

[swift sand]

xbox?

[drowsy elbow]

which npc gives the free uhhhh, the pass thing that lets you explore those giant ships in space

[devout mist]

that's actually not a bad idea. thanks! 🙏

[twin dome]

Hey all. I am trying to get back to this Sentinel Salvage Site but I am unable to locate it. Any advice?

[swift sand]

helios, but only after completing first derelict freighter mission

[drowsy elbow]

how do i get the first one

[swift sand]

it says that it's in that system, simply select the right mission in your log (maybe you have more than one)

[swift sand]

scrap dealer npc in stations, buy coordinates

[drowsy elbow]

thank you

[pine drum]

Always has been meme (it's De4d lnside)

[rose roost]

How do we finish Field Guide others already name creaters

[twin dome]

YOU LEGEND!

[rose roost]

In expedition

[pine raven]

anybody know how to fix thi

[twin dome]

I can't believe it's taken me 10 years to find this game. This game is something special. wow

[river willow]

What multi tool is the best

[drowsy elbow]

well to be fair it wasnt worth finding on release

[rose roost]

I like the runic multitool

[twin dome]

That's what I have seen. Glad I found it in this state

[craggy surge]

Hi ! Quick question, I am on the shipment but I am stuck at the stage where it is necessary to place the colossus, it says 'impossible to modify' when I try to place it... Does anyone have the solution ?

[pulsar jacinth]

Maybe you are too close to somebody's base?

I mean

You shouldn't be able to build bases in the expedition

[brazen flame]

other than just putting oxygen into a refiner, is there any other recipes for carbon

[craggy surge]

I don’t see any around, and I walked for a very long time to move away from the spawn

[brazen flame]

oxygen + something i think existed

[pulsar jacinth]

But yo how people are

[pulsar jacinth]

Could you screenshot or take a picture of that error message and send it here?

[devout mist]

10 hours away walking 4 hours by Colossus

[robust lily]

i'm at the third waste heap, and already did one trip from the waste heap to the waste collector, but it didnt work, the quest didnt launch so i have to do it again, but there's no more special waste ;-;, if anyone knows if i can make special waste respawn

[craggy surge]

I will do that thank you for your help

[pulsar jacinth]

It will eventually respawn, but so far I haven't seen any reliable way to force it to respawn. Look around for small bits of waste scattered around, some of them have special waste. Gather 5 and then process them by sorting them manually

[robust lily]

thanks!

[craggy surge]

it might be that I am too far from spawn?

[pulsar jacinth]

I mean, it does look like an error caused by another player's base. Try disabling multiplayer and then saving and reloading. You will need to find something to save your game or run around for a minute or two for autosave to trigger.

[analog trellis]

This is expedition 21 or 22

[pulsar jacinth]

No, you should be able to build that anywhere

[craggy surge]

ok I will try thank you !

[pulsar jacinth]

Remnant is expedition 21

[rancid nexus]

Is Xbox still not fully updated yet? I heard from a friend that Xbox is on 6.20 while steam is on 6.21

[true basalt]

Thanks much for the assistance. I was able to get the exocraft built doing as you suggested and completely offlining my system and running to a new area, you are rockstar!

[brazen flame]

is the first set of numbers on planet coordinates north to west? N = + and S = -?

[glacial hearth]

I played on Xbox Series S for 5 hours on the new Remnant update, and in those 5 hours, the game crashed 5 times. I've never had this happen before. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

[swift sand]

try changing graphics from quality to performance or vice versa

[waxen nexus]

Hello together, is it possible to get the Expedition 20 Parts for the corvette via Charing or something Else ? I Play on Switch 2

[swift sand]

correct

[glacial hearth]

and every time it crashes, the xbox freezes for a few minutes and then the game turns off

[swift sand]

see <#nms-commands message>; first number, latitude, N/S; second number, longitude, E/W

[swift sand]

try changing graphics from quality to performance or vice versa

[glacial hearth]

Okay, thanks

[swift sand]

yeah, another player can give you aeron parts already crafted, you'd have to wait for the devs to bring it back (or use service bot, though not sure if that's available on free tiers)

[brazen flame]

tried it, thanks

[glacial hearth]

I changed the graphics from quality to performance and nothing changed

[cosmic barn]

How do people get ships to the expedition? I really dont wanna drive 1 IRL hour to get to the third waste heap

[inner wedge]

I was hearing around that the Xbox is crashing. Probably best to report it so HG can get to it as soon as possible

[drowsy elbow]

what will a planet with storm crystals say with its description. when you scan a planet

[toxic cosmos]

Yeah it's nigh on unplayable on Xbox Series X

[drowsy elbow]

i found it

[toxic cosmos]

Lol

[toxic cosmos]

I even noticed i had to dial back my graphics on my PC to get it torn without crashing.
I was running on high before the update, now it struggles to run on enhanced.

[inner wedge]

Yeah I was hearing that too. But for some people that’s not working for them

[toxic cosmos]

It's rough

[river willow]

Can someone help me get a good multitool

[swift sand]

in short, not meant to, will only have access to a ship at the end

[trim crest]

can someone help me i need the last rock on expedition 21 for petrology

[swift sand]

check out these posts <#nms-commands message> and <#nms-commands message>

[swift sand]

look for areas like

[slender fog]

hello, are the corvette quest board and corvette containers disabled for other players now ?

[swift sand]

disabled as in cant interact? not sure if that was working before tbh (for example, another player cant interact with storage containers built on freighter base)

[trim crest]

i just got it, thank you 🙂

[gaunt compass]

do rusted metal hotspots exists because ive found 7 s class ones but none were rusted metal

[swift sand]

if planet has rusted metal on the list, yes, there will be rusted metal hotspots on the planet

[slender fog]

mhh I played with a friend 3 days ago, I was able to store my ressources in his corvette's storage and we were able to launch quests together directly inside. Today it doesn't work. I'm not sure if it is a current bug or if it was a bugg currently fixed x)

[swift sand]

have you tried to restart games, perhaps changing who hosts?

[slender fog]

the only thing I didn't tried is to reinstall the game x)

itworks for you ?

[swift sand]

i havent tested it recently, sorry

maybe try asking around #nms-corvette-discussion

[tight pulsar]

I have a question. Is the Excocraft getting stuck on Di-Hydrogen crystal a bug or no? Cause I found a bug with the paint

[swift sand]

i've heard of this happening when using mechanical legs - is that what you're using?

that said, already applied on steam experimental branch (just need to wait for the next patch):

Fixed an issue that could cause the Colossus Exocraft mechanical legs to get caught on obstacles.

[tight pulsar]

Ok. Just making sure before I report it. But did anyone report about the paint? Cause the Camo and Weather paint are flipped. So the weathered paint is the Camo paint and the Camo paint is the weathered paint.

[twin maple]

Does anyone know if glitch planets can have salvageable scrap?

[swift sand]

camouflage was working fine for me - on pc, no mods

[swift sand]

nope, i dont remember seeing any

[tight pulsar]

Ok. Then it must be buged on the switch. Since the paints work just are flipped

[swift sand]

hmm i'll take a much closer look next time i'm on, maybe my eyes saw what i was expecting to see

but yeah, raise a bug report when you get a bit of spare time

[tight pulsar]

Ok. Just wanted to check cause i didn’t want to make a report if someone already did.

[swift sand]

dont worry about that. best to have bug reports flowing in, they just categorize them and group them up

[eager badger]

Anyone know if they fixed the Xbox version. I played last night but they still haven't patched shit.

[tight pulsar]

Ok all done

[swift sand]

well, it's weekend now. some players have found success when switching graphics settings from quality to performance or vice versa.

[urban berry]

Nah dude, nothing actually works

[eager badger]

Graphic mode is unfortunately unavailable for series X/S

[swift sand]

sorry

[urban berry]

On series s we can't actually get over 30 sec before crashing the whole console

[swift sand]

sit tight, put game down

Im playing arc raiders so im chillin

[strong folio]

I had about 8 crashes before i switched to my pc 😂

[jade forum]

so how do people find the new remnant planets?

[urban berry]

You played from the xbox app ?

[swift sand]

there are no new "remnant" update planets - any planet in inhabited systems with salvageable scrap (but ignore planets with rusted metal on the list) can potentially have waste processing plants/heaps

[urban berry]

If so i might boot my pc

[strong folio]

@urban berry no i played from steam with my Cloud save

[dusk parcel]

hello, I need help because I can’t find a waste treatment plant, I got the one we were given as standard but I changed solar systems and I don’t find it anymore so do you have a way to find a plant please

someone tell me to go on planet where is write scrap recoverable or something like that but I didn't find one planet with this in 4 solar system

[swift sand]

find pretty much any planet that has salvageable scrap on the list, spawn colossus, install exocraft radar and hop in it, open quick menu, radar, scan for waste processing plant

[boreal zealot]

Is there a way to change the exosuit voice? The default English one makes me want to disable it entirely.

[gilded otter]

there is not

[swift sand]

options/general iirc

[pure lily]

Male/Female or Neutral I believe are the options

[gilded otter]

nevermind

[dusk parcel]

okay but, I try it I find the things we can collect with the collosus and with praticly 1 hour of searching I didn't find

[gilded otter]

i was wrong again

[dusk parcel]

so it's just luck ?

[honest glade]

It is available wdym lol

Even on series s

[swift sand]

personally, i first search for waste plant, then after i get there, scan for heaps/use exocraft visor aka cyclops scope to find specialist industrial waste (just got to explore)

[dusk parcel]

okay ty

I will try

[stuck wolf]

So this just occurred to me, but are there any Easter eggs in no man's sky?

[boreal zealot]

wow can't believe i missed that, hopefully masculine is better, thanks!

[gilded otter]

what would you qualify as an easter egg

[alpine ember]

Has switch received the update yet?

[stuck wolf]

Like anything that references any other form of media?

[gilded otter]

yes actually

the posters ingame strongly resemble some movie covers

[sudden apex]

The uss mormandy

[gilded otter]

also the normandy

[sudden apex]

Is the patch out on Xbox yet?

[swift sand]

switch 1 is currently on 6.20

[alpine ember]

I’m on switch 2.

[swift sand]

same version

[swift sand]

on 6.20.2 still

[alpine ember]

So is that a yes or no?

[swift sand]

that's a yes for 6.20

[flint pollen]

Which ones that

[alpine ember]

I’m asking if the update is out for switch yet, idk anything about versions dude…

[swift sand]

@alpine ember @flint pollen https://www.nomanssky.com/release-log/

[flint pollen]

Is that out on Xbox yet do you know

Oh so we’ve not got the hotfixes yet

[alpine ember]

Idk I saw online we can revamp our exocraft and we now have some gravity gun or something.

[flint pollen]

Alr thanks

[swift sand]

added with Remnant update 6.20 - so yes

[pure lily]

Quick question. What do y'all do with salvaged scrap and artifacts. I'm a bit of a hoarder (specifically with unique items) so I haven't sold any of them and have about 10M in value. Is there anything else I can do with them other than sell?

[swift sand]

primarily sell, could also exchange at planetary archive exchange vaults for another item of the same or higher rarity, but not always of higher value; finally, could donate to explorer guild for standing

[pure lily]

Gotchu thanks! Ngl bit sad to let some of these items go since I've had them from day 1.

Might keep a few 😂

[gilded otter]

if you have bones you can make a skeleton with em

[swift sand]

you'll get more later if you want - even with the same text descriptions, some of those are really cool
