[scenic saffron]

were they dissonant sentinels

[hexed kindle]

no luck, the visited circle isn't on any nearby star system either

[scenic saffron]

like the purple ones

[drowsy elbow]

im killing the tower things the wiki says to kill

[stuck berry]

That is strange. Do you have the glyphs to send to me so that I can see if I can find it?

[hexed kindle]

just a moment

[supple river]

Oh yeah I forgot one more annoying one: Pretty much every time I land at a building with the save/chart interactible thing, which usually has a few containers around it, several of them aren't interactible unless I reload the game. Sometimes you can find a weird angle to interact with, but most of the time it's just no dice until a reload. Super annoying lol. Is that a common/known one too?

[scenic saffron]

Before you attack them you can see if they have inverted mirrors or echo locators

[hexed kindle]

i'll throw it in DM

[swift sand]

main storyline missions are able to temporarily change the planet you get sent to - as in, literally, not the same biome, full change exotification cc @stuck berry

if you try portaling afterwards into those temp locations, you'll just get a diff planet

this has been tested years ago actually

[quiet stratus]

Thinking about buying NMS what FPS should i expect on medium or high settings with:
-RTX 3050 4gb laptop version
-16gb RAM
-i5 12450h

[swift sand]

probably 60 if playing with those settings and 1080p

may dip at times

[quiet stratus]

alr thanks

[hexed kindle]

do you have the link to the test still by any chance?

[swift sand]

probably depending on the site, but yeah, somewht known

[swift sand]

nah, it was years ago, but has been tested by me and others too - both using locations "we've been to" via quest personally, and that others been to via their own quests

in short, you can portal into the address just fine, just that the planet wont be the same, not even of the same biome subtype

[supple river]

It happens at literally every sight lol if I land in the ship at least, sometimes even if I've walked from nearby

[swift sand]

would suggest raising a bug report

[sweet flare]

does anyone know how to play cross platform on switch/ switch 2

[scenic saffron]

Should I upgrade my Multitool from A to S?
How much better does it get at S?

[analog scroll]

Switch 1 has no multiplayer

[hexed kindle]

yeah that's more or less what i experienced, i guess i'll consider the stuff i bookmarked as lost

[sweet flare]

what about the switch 2 version

[analog scroll]

10 more max inventory slots, 1 more supercharged slot

[scenic saffron]

I assume the one downside is the 50,000 nanite cost

[swift sand]

neither of those can cross platform (in case you were thinking of cross save, that neither) atm because of different save versions in relation to other platfoms

[analog scroll]

You have to wait for the save versions to match other platforms. We do not know when that will happen

[scenic saffron]

Which I can decently easily make

[supple river]

will do then, already did for the no collision thing only to come here and learn its apparently fixed on experimental branch lol, but good to know this one perhaps isnt then

[swift sand]

yeah, can confirm, collision issue is fixed on steam exp

[supple river]

looking forward to that one because boy its annoying

[scenic saffron]

collision issue?
Do you mean like
the ramps to buildings having no collision?

[pale steeple]

Is there anyone tht would do a voice call with me and help and maybe explain more things with story mode and some other things? Its so hard to txt lol idk if thts allowed or not? Not saying right now but maybe tonight after my kids are in bed and what not maybe?

[scenic saffron]

How many stars is prosperous?
3?

[timber moth]

Is there a way to speed up the void egg maturity?

It shows 25+ hours

[analog scroll]

probably, but the economy scanner will tell you for sure

[analog scroll]

Mods, otherwise no

[timber moth]

Dang

I guess I'll get back in the game tomorrow

[scenic saffron]

can you send me the exotic ship chance for systems ples

[analog scroll]

1 in 301 in all populated systems for exotics

[scenic saffron]

oh ok

so 0.33%

[analog scroll]

Correct

[scenic saffron]

Added an extra zero by accident lmao

I thought the chance varied by system
Or is that only for like
S-Class stuff

and A- to C- Class

[analog scroll]

That is for normal ships, Exotics are a special case

[scenic saffron]

Oh ok

ty

[analog scroll]

Exotics only come in S class

[scenic saffron]

Ik, was just curious of the exotic chance

[pure edge]

did the translators ever got a rework ? they seemed pretty useless a few years ago

[tender blaze]

How do you get the free emergency broadcast from iteration Helios? I've read on the wiki you can one for free every week after you complete one which I'm pretty sure I did fully like today but can't seem to get it from him

[analog scroll]

You have to complete a derelict mission first, and he won't give you one immediately

[analog scroll]

They're still useless

[tender blaze]

Hmm, alr, will try again tomorrow

[scenic saffron]

Do trade posts or space station have higher chance to spawn exotics

[analog scroll]

Trade Posts cycle ships faster, so technically them; but the spawn chance is the same no matter what

[scenic saffron]

k

[hazy berry]

how do i fins systems with merchant guild reliably, all the systerms near me (like 4k lighyers atleast) are exploration guild

[analog scroll]

Guilds are regional. Expand the system info card on the galaxy map and look for a different region, travel there and look at the guild. Repeat if necessary

[hazy berry]

is warping with freigter now safe? if i recall correcty there was once a bug with it that could have deleted something

[analog scroll]

Never heard of warping with a freighter deleting anything

[hazy berry]

im almost sure that there was somehting at one point

like positively sure

[analog scroll]

I don't usually warp with my freighter so you could be right

[stuck berry]

Also never heard of such a bug, and have been warping with mine for many hours at a time for months

Haven't done so this update cycle yet outside of once or twice

[hazy berry]

i dont see anyhting about guilds...

[analog scroll]

And you won't. You know what guild is in that region, so travel to another one and look there

[hazy berry]

ohh thats just great, so i have warp randomly and hope i stumble upon a new region?

[stuck berry]

No, you can clearly see which system is a part of which region

[analog scroll]

Look below the system name. It literally says what region you're currently in. Cursor over system to system until you find a different one

[hazy berry]

found an mercenary part but no idea how i tell them apart

ohh

nvm

[thorn jasper]

Been hearing players have to pay for pirate dreadnoughts now? Wanted to confirm this as I haven’t had time to jump in game yet.

[stuck berry]

It's a bug that was fixed in 6.23 https://www.nomanssky.com/2026/02/remnant-6-23

[thorn jasper]

Awesome, thank you 😊

[vital estuary]

Speaking of bugs was that camera drift supposed to be fixed in the regular PC Steam build?

[exotic scarab]

i have this door in my base and i was wondering, why i could connect the door to the power. i connected it and now its like locked. i bet it will open again if i disconnect the wire. is there another way to open it / auto open and close the door?

[brazen flame]

if you havent reasearchd yet. get the power inverter and proximity switchg

[supple river]

you need to use some kind of switch to flip power on/off when you want to open it, there's several options for it

[brazen flame]

powering on the door closes it

if you want to make it proximity based then you need both of these

[exotic scarab]

alrighty. no research for me right now. but thanks for the anwers

[radiant saffron]

are ships simply disabled within the new expedition?

[analog scroll]

You don't get one until you finish

[exotic scarab]

basic engineering it is 😄

[brazen flame]

very basic circuits

[radiant saffron]

ah so everything till it's finished is on this planet exclusively

[supple river]

I've seen this diagram or ones like it so many times and to this day I still don't understand why the inverter has 3 connection nodes lol

[analog scroll]

Because the inverter you can buy has them

[brazen flame]

1 input power
2 output power
3 direction switch

so 2 has no poewr if 3 the direction is switched on

input stays the same

[analog scroll]

It's 2 inputs and 1 output

[supple river]

yeah I just don't get why its not input power and output power and it just flips between them lol. I might understand it if I ever actually built or used one 😂

[brazen flame]

cause it flips them

remember its not a signal

its just electricity

so you need 1 for the actual current and voltage

2 for switching the direction

[supple river]

oh I suppose so

[brazen flame]

and 3 to actually transmit it

[stone summit]

Are there any major big cities made by people? If so what are the portal glyphs

[brazen flame]

i think what youre thinking of is a NOT gate

[supple river]

somehow my brain just refuses to make sense of it lol but I guess if it didnt have its own power source it would spontaneously generate power when receiving a "power off" input lol

[brazen flame]

which if not powered returns a 1

but it still needs electricity

[supple river]

yeah thats probably what i'm thinking of tbh

[brazen flame]

ya

[supple river]

too much logic gate stuff in my brain

[brazen flame]

yeah lol

cause put it liike this

[native forge]

can i ride with friends in my corvette

[brazen flame]

if you dont power the switch where is it getting the poower

[stone summit]

Yeah

[native forge]

do i need chairs?

[stone summit]

Yeah

[supple river]

I think the reason it breaks by brain is because it wants the input from the left to be flipped to the output on the right, but the flipped input is the one on the top/bottom instead

i think

maybe my next base will use prefab doors until it sticks

[stuck berry]

No, you do not.

[hazy berry]

did guild rewars refresh or not?

like can i get multiple cargo heads from same system

[analog scroll]

No, they do not

[stuck berry]

Don't expect them to

they "refresh" in the same way most static things like Buried Technology Modules do, aka after you've done enough things in your save since then

[hazy berry]

i have pretty hard question for you all and dont expect an answer for it, but it would be game changing

does anybody here know what are the best foods to feed for living frigates to get best possible respectitive stats, like in combat, trading, etc...

[analog scroll]

!faq-livingfrigate has a food list and the results

[hazy berry]

because there are 65 food groupsd i think

[analog scroll]

In #nms-commands

[hazy berry]

so it would take a while

thanks, i check it out

ohh maan its going to take a while to go this all out

i expect that the yeallow ones are the best?

[turbid glacier]

How do I unlock colours to customize my freighter

[analog scroll]

Freighter tech terminal

[turbid glacier]

K

[turbid glacier]

Where is that?

[lofty dirge]

I think you build it

[hazy berry]

im getting different stats for the same foods that are shown on the guide

[analog scroll]

On the bridge, terminal closest to the green stairs around the center terminal

[hazy berry]

like really different, not matching at all

[turbid glacier]

5000 NANITES!?!?!?

[hazy berry]

quick question, sorry about all this

[turbid glacier]

For a colour is insane

[analog scroll]

Per color

[turbid glacier]

Blud

I just want a white dreadnaught

[analog scroll]

Don't need to apologize, that's why we're here

[turbid glacier]

They look fire online bro

[turbid glacier]

I prob don’t know I just started this game

[analog scroll]

Most of the coloring in a pirate dreadnought can't be changed

[hazy berry]

do the autophage modules count toward the 3 module max slots, like i can have 3 s class modules and 3 sentinel modules

[turbid glacier]

Ik I saw it online thought it was cool

[analog scroll]

They are their own group of 3, yes

[hazy berry]

oh thas nice, better get grinding then i guess

[turbid glacier]

Why do pirates have such good ships but I gotta wait an hour for a solar ship in a normal system

[analog scroll]

There is only a chance to replace 1 shuttle model with a solar in a regulated system. Outlaw systems can have 20 of their 21 models replaced with solar models

[turbid glacier]

O

[hazy berry]

when building staff, what determites the quality of it (not final version, just test one)

[analog scroll]

The head + the terminal you use to assemble it

Coloring and Class

[foggy steppe]

Hey, seems I can't buy the candelabra bloom at the quicksilver merchant but I also don't have it and I see it grayed out in my discoveries... how do I get it?

[analog scroll]

Why can't you buy it from them?

[foggy steppe]

Doesn't show up in the list to purchase.

[analog scroll]

Are you connected to Discovery Services?

[hazy berry]

tyndall, could you please link the site or what was it that told about the differences between multitool classes, like what is each one good? i remember seeing somethingh like that here

[foggy steppe]

Yes, I see all other items just not that one

[supple river]

its such a big list I swear I scroll through it twice to find anything tbh

[foggy steppe]

Ok, I'll look a fourth time.

[hazy berry]

thank you

[supple river]

wasnt trying to imply you hadnt looked thoroughly enough lol

[analog scroll]

Should be able to filter the list, that will make it easier to search

[hazy berry]

hard choise, staffs are really cool but the have worse stats than atlantid, tho minign is not that important when i can buy everyhting

[analog scroll]

Depends what you want, but bonuses can be overcome. Pick the tool you like the most and go from there

[hazy berry]

Any idea which one matters more?

[analog scroll]

For what? It's the combination that gives you a specific class and color

[hazy berry]

ohh sorry, i misread your previous message

[atomic fractal]

Welp I haven't been able to give use to my ciclotron, as good as it is it's not worthy swapping my super upgrade infra knife that deletes enemy shield in half a second

[scenic saffron]

Question
So I have a thing to rerun an expedition downloaded
Should I delete the current cache and replace it with the downloaded one?

[hazy berry]

yea, I dont understand the staff assembly, sometimes the color changes, sometimes notm there are so many variables that i cant keep track of all of them

[scenic saffron]

yes? no?

[atomic fractal]

Oh yeah I understood why my infra knife does 26k against shields vs my current ciclotron doing 16k against them

[hazy berry]

i presume the community has propably found glyps for system that has an really good terminal with great chance for s class?

[analog scroll]

There are hundreds of Autophage camps per planet. Trial and error would probably be faster, or farming the 85k nanites and just look for color. 85k nanites can be gotten in no time

[scenic saffron]

Okay so uh
I have 433 months to complete the Leviathan Redux
You think I have enough time 🤣

Okay
If I started a new save for it will my other saves be safe

[celest prawn]

I recently,y attempted to play co-op with a friend and could not believe how bad the session was. It was laggy, and very glitchy. He could not even see my base on my freighter, and kept glitching through the floor in my planet base. Are others experiencing these issues?

[foggy steppe]

Well, it was exactly that. 5th time through I finally found it. Really need a search function since it's not even alphabetical!

[cunning tree]

whats the best way to get a lot of dihydrogen

[foggy steppe]

Bob, convert it to gel in a refiner then back again. Repeat.

[gilded otter]

this game has multiplayer, though it isnt the main focus and its really buggy

[foggy steppe]

You get more out than you put in doing that.

[cunning tree]

Sounds good

its a pain trying to constantly get more for frigate expeditions

[stuck berry]

The former is an issue affecting all players mostly, introduced in 6.00. The latter issue may be due to the base not being finished downloading yet for them, you most likely had never uploaded the base yet which makes it download for others almost instantly

[supple river]

It really is a very cursed list!

[hexed kindle]

is there a way to fill all my freighter's refiners with one recipe or collect from them all?

[stray plover]

i just got offered this for free and have no idea what t it is or does, should i take it

[fading forum]

this is a scripted encounter that happens every once in a while, if you don't take it then you will be offered another in the future after defeating pirates, the next may have better stats

you can also reload your save and do the encounter again to reroll the stats

[stray plover]

if i do take this one am i allowed to take another one later on? or is it just one i can have

[fading forum]

you get one free one, the next you will have to trade or buy if you take this one

[stray plover]

is this ones stats pretty good, or no?

[hexed kindle]

you can but you'll have to pay and swap your current one out yeah, it's decent but you'll want to keep in mind its class can't be upgraded

it'll stick as B tier

[stray plover]

i probably dont even need this as of right now yeah? im still doing the base building missions, where i have to go hire scientist and stuffs

[vapid arch]

Guys help, I was salvaging this, but went to a station to save/end session and the next day I forgot to pick it up, and now I don't remember where it was;

What do I do now

[hexed kindle]

you don't need it at any point if you don't want it so to say, you can finish the main story without one

[fading forum]

if you see an A class freighter you should take it, as freighters are very useful for storing containers and you can get an upgrade to access all 8 storage containers from anywhere in the system if it's summoned

[stray plover]

do they come any higher than a class?

[vapid arch]

yesS

[hexed kindle]

S class is the top just like starships

that being said you could be farming for a while if you're not lucky

[stray plover]

i usually have 0 rng in games lmao

speaking of how i got to this ship, im running around trying to do these build your base mission, and i can not find a korvak system to hire a scientist in. is there an easy way to find one, or do i have to just keep warping to systems?

[hexed kindle]

your log can sort nearby systems by dominant race, otherwise you can check the portal card

bottom right gives you the race icon

for that quest though as long as it's selected you should be prompted to the station

[stray plover]

if thats the case, im in a korvak system, but theres no scentist at the sapce station to hire

i have the quest selected but its not pointing me anywhere

[stuck berry]

Look at the Galaxy Map, it should point to a specific star system

[deft current]

Yea, like never the local system those fetch quests..

[stray plover]

if its the green line, thats where i went

[granite creek]

Guys what's the utility of having a freighter? happened to me the same than the guy who got one for free, but i accepted it

[stuck berry]

Yes, it's the green line leading to the system with the "beaker" icon on it

[deft current]

i used to ask that Q too, until i finally got one.. 🙂

[stray plover]

yes i went there, and any other system attached to this green line, theres not a scientist anywhere

[stuck berry]

It's only at the system with the mission icon on it

at the end of the green line

[stray plover]

yes i went there, i went to that station, then there was no scientist there

i keep getting led in circles back to the same station with no scientist... is my mission bugged or something

[granite creek]

idkk, it's too much info atp. I got it right after I finished building the ship you build (im sorry idk the name in english)

[stuck berry]

Go back to this system, once you reach it then see what the mission tooltip says to do in the lower right

[stray plover]

it just keeps saying this

[stuck berry]

After you warped to the star system that has this icon on it, does it still say this?

[deft current]

It's an A-Class, if you like it take it.. it's a new Home Base, can follow you anywheres.. 🙂

[stray plover]

yes, im there. still says the same thing, thats what im saying its bugged or something

[hexed kindle]

land at the station, the scientist should be inside

[stray plover]

ah i found him

[vernal nexus]

If you use the furnace chassis on the colossus, can you put all types of refuse in it? And does it count to open up new parts?

[proper parcel]

where do you get more slots for exocrafts

[stuck berry]

can't

[proper parcel]

crud thx

[simple bolt]

I think you can, but mine has been counting everything as Scrap Metal rather than the specific waste, so I’ve sent a bug report to HG. 😅

[vernal nexus]

Oh dang

[severe crown]

Is it a bug that an Exosuit Upgrade Chart keeps pointing me to the same drop pod (that I've already completed), no matter how far away it is (disclaimer, I'm only about a 10-15 minute "drive" away, but that should be far enough, I'd hope)?

[stuck berry]

That is somewhat of a bug, yes

they should ignore ones that have been pinged before

!hg

[tulip dust]

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

[severe crown]

Got it. Thanks.
And technically, the one it points to hadn't been pinged by a chart before. I found that one as I passed by and completed it. Maybe that is what caused the bug I'll be reporting.

[stuck berry]

Maybe that is why it's pointed to

[granite topaz]

Im trying to get an A/S class capitol freighter but I don't know how to stop my manual restore point I place in the previous system from being overwritten when I get out of my ship after the fight to check the freighter class. Any advice would be appreciated. I'm playing on Xbox if that makes a difference.

[azure stirrup]

I bought No Man's Sky for the pc on Steam - can I link my playstation account to it, or am I starting from scratch?

[stuck berry]

Yes https://cloud.nomanssky.com/cross-save, though to upload saves from PlayStation you would need access to the PlayStation console that has the saves on it

[azure stirrup]

Hokay, I do, thank you! Does the link cover that option?

[junior ravine]

is the blackhole glitch where you can keep entering galaxy center without finding a portal still working?

[stuck berry]

It allows you to link multiple accounts together. After doing so, an option will become available in-game to upload saves to the cloud, which enables you to download them on other platforms (after which they'll automatically be kept up to date/synced with the cloud copy)

[azure stirrup]

Hokay, thank you!

[azure stirrup]

So far, I keep getting errors when trying to sign into my Playstation account. It really doesn't like that, but the errors are coming up at different points of the process

I finally got past that stage, now I have both platforms selected for cross-platform saves

[limber musk]

Did the same thing I had to complete another mission for this one to activate correctly

[umbral ravine]

Yes, you can put everything. But no, it won't count for the titles/unlocks. The special waste has to be done manually for those.

It makes you work for those wheels. 😛

[granite topaz]

Does anyone know how to stop your manual saves from being overwritten every time you get out of your ship? I'm on Xbox if that makes a difference.

[stuck berry]

Can't, unless you're aboard an NPC freighter which then it doesn't happen

(unless piloting a corvette)

[fervent trellis]

I saw people had normal upgrades on their corvette and something about a glitch with adding them so I tried to build my corvette small and then add all the parts after adding in my upgrades with only a few parts in there. When I finished building the whole thing 90% of the mods are missing. Are they just gone forever?

[granite topaz]

Does that mean if I want to reroll a freighter's class I need to use a fighter not a Corvette?

Good to know, thank you!

[gleaming wasp]

If i were to disassemble my Corvette and build something else, will it stay an S class?

[hushed saffron]

So long as you don't get rid of the Corvette, just rebuild it, yeah

It will also keep tech/cargo slots

[pastel light]

If I host a game that I’ve played for a bit (basically on a separate system then when I started) then a friend joins and starts a new save playing with me do they spawn in my system or the one I originally spawned in

[nova wyvern]

Whatever system you're currently in

[pastel light]

Is it the same for if they join through a save they have been playing on for a bit?

[nova wyvern]

Yes

[granite creek]

what's the utility of other ships getting on my freighter? just laying there?

Wait, so i built my corvette which is basically a small freighter, do I use that one as a new home or how does it work? because I'm lost on the utility of each

[deft current]

Your own ships? They are just being displayed for use.. NPC ships? They are there to trade, like on a Trading Post.. Your Friend's ships, idt that's possible for them to find your Freighter.. Did i cover your Q with that response..?

[granite creek]

YES, i was asking for NPC's so thanks so much

[stuck berry]

They can see your freighter and enter it, if grouped with you

[pastel light]

Now would it be morally ok if I have a friend join me on my save where im on a perfect place to live, then leave and join him through a different save?

[stuck berry]

a current bug prevents freighter bases from loading in most cases though

[deft current]

Corvettes are definitely not Freighters, Corvettes are not StarShips, the three have different purposes, Corvette can be a Taxi, the others cannot.. a Frieghter can be a Base, the others cannot..

[stuck berry]

Corvettes are by definition a type of starship

just a big one with stuff inside that can be jumped out of etc, that's all custom

[granite creek]

OOH

Thanks so much you two

[deft current]

How many POIs are on a Planet or Moon, are they continuously generated to infinity or a certain or random number..?

And of the POIs are there a certain amount of each type and they are finite, or is there a big pool that all the POIs are drawn from, and as i use Maps they're created from that pool, so potentially i could search a long time for a certain POI and most of the pool would become those certain type POIs..

What is known and could be said regarding this subject..?

[stuck berry]

Predetermined number/location/etc

just like systems you haven't visited, structures you haven't visited don't exist until you get close to them but mathmatically always exist, charts and stuff just point to where those are supposed to be

[deft current]

Do i make one type of POI become another simply by using a Map..?

[stuck berry]

No, you mark one that already was there

we can never "create" structures

if you had traveled to the coordinates that the structure was at before you marked it, it'd still be there and be identical to how it would have been if you marked it

basically, assume everything exists at all times, like an actual reality

[deft current]

So, each Planet or Moon has a certain number of potential POI buildings (of each type), i only find them either by chance or Maps, correct..? So, each type is finite, and i could find all of a type..?

[stuck berry]

yes, they are finite

[gleaming wasp]

What if i have things in storage containers

Do i have to move everything out

[deft current]

Your 10 numbered Storage Boxes are safe..

[deft current]

Any guess how many Observatories could be on a Planet..? I think i'm at ~300 or so found atm.. hoping it will end..

[stuck berry]

No idea

[gleaming coral]

Anyone know if waste heaps regenerate waste if you collect it all then return to them?

[winter wolf]

in my experience, at least some of the waste will regenerate. usually the basic waste, not specialty waste

[deft current]

Mmm Ok, ty for your answers!!

[stuck berry]

IME all of it has regenerated, but that's only after clearing out other waste heaps until an old one gets marked again

[delicate coral]

I completed the expedition on another save, but I cannot access the sccoop etc on another save, does each account need to complete?

[stuck berry]

The scoop is a technology blueprint that must be unlocked at Iteration: Perses aboard the Space Anomaly

[delicate coral]

of course lol, thanks

[indigo trellis]

does this mission repeat forever?

[slate torrent]

whats gonna happen when i get 100% at Kronus?

[tulip dust]

@slate torrent

No stickers in this channel please

[slate torrent]

🙆🏻‍♂️

[stuck berry]

Yes, it indicates that you have completed The Atlas Path.

[indigo trellis]

awh

[raw jolt]

how can i change that blue bit, it annoys me to no end

[stuck berry]

Can't, stuck as the "default" color

[raw jolt]

there isnt even a mod that can fix it?

ILL DO ANYTHING

it RUINS the vibe so much

[stray plover]

just make the ship blue

[raw jolt]

noooo

You could replace it's home seed using a save editor to a native color that fits

but true black isn't a possible natural color, only greys

[raw jolt]

how do i do that? it sounds complicated

[deft current]

..or get a new ship in a different colors..

[eager geyser]

I’m trying to do the scrap mission and don’t see it in my log. I also don’t have the flatbed available. Anyone know what might be going on?

[raw jolt]

this is an S class that took me 5 hours to find with the crew I wanted, ill do the editor thing

[deft current]

Just do a backup first, and keep it for several months..!

[stuck berry]

Basically just find any freighter with the color you like, claim it on another save, then see what it's "home seed" is, which determines the color, then paste that into your main save's field for that

[young dock]

So 2 things what happens if happiness in a settlement reaches 0 and what are ways to improve it while you wait for construction and policy stuff

[stuck berry]

Thankfully both of the main save editors create backups automatically before changes are made, I believe

[raw jolt]

it doesnt have to be the same freighter or size, class or anything?

[stuck berry]

Correct, though Pirate Dreadnoughts follow different color randomization

[eager geyser]

Does anyone know why “industrial cleanup” isn’t in my log?

[lofty dirge]

you need to unlock and craft the gravitino coil

[raw jolt]

where can i find these editors?

[stuck berry]

I have a bunch here that match the colors you had on already somewhat, I could go grab any of them and extract the color seed for you

[deft current]

Possibly Nexus.com..

[stuck berry]

Decorate your Bases and stuff..

[lofty dirge]

what types of galaxy does relentless, serene, silent and rebuilt refer to?

[stuck berry]

The red one is a harsh galaxy, the green one is a lush galaxy, the blue one is an empty galaxy and the teal one is a normal galaxy #nms-questions message

Lush and Empty galaxies just have different biome probabilities in their yellow systems #nms-questions message

"Normal" galaxies have identical chances for stuff as Euclid Galaxy

and harsh galaxies have more aggressive sentinels and extreme storms on their worlds, across all types of systems

[stuck berry]

That freighter's "Home Seed" is 0x18300FE9D5D48

[lofty dirge]

red green blue are biomes?

[stuck berry]

If you paste that into the "Home Seed", then save, your freighter should match the colors of that red sentinel freighter

[raw jolt]

Perfect how do I make sure it creates a backup

[stuck berry]

Yes, they are known for their color filters, colossal flora/minerals and strange names

[stuck berry]

It should by default. If you still worry, you can make a manual backup of the folder yourself

[wanton granite]

anyone know which is the best wheels for colossus?

[eager geyser]

That was it, thanks.

[lofty dirge]

what type is the second one

[lofty dirge]

spider legs

[stuck berry]

Venator, the shortest of those too

[lofty dirge]

hm I found a similar one, it looks pretty cool tho. small but cool

[balmy cairn]

how problematic is it for transporting scrap in a planet that has gravitational storms?

[gleaming coral]

How do you unlock the new colossus customization modules? Just keep salvaging stuff?

[balmy cairn]

150 regular scrap and 50 of each industrial type (manually dumping them, dont use the terminal)

[ivory phoenix]

How do I find the Iron Vulture Ship Parts?

[gleaming coral]

Is that both or either or?

[stuck berry]

Pretty much

[balmy cairn]

both

[gleaming coral]

Damn that's a lot.

[balmy cairn]

its from an expedition, you can use a mod to replay it, save editing, or trade the parts with a player who has one

[ivory phoenix]

I am trying to find them. I am on PS5. I don’t believe I can mod or save editing. 😔

[stuck berry]

Then ask for them in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[lofty dirge]

does traveling to a new galaxy damage all your stuff EVERY TIME?

[balmy cairn]

unless you get there via another player

[stuck berry]

Only via core warp/||end of main story||

[raw jolt]

@stuck berry It worked Tys

tysm*

[granite creek]

how do yu find people? Ive seen there is a location where you can find other players, but i dont know here nor how

[lofty dirge]

isn't core warp the only "legit" way of traveling through another galaxy?

[stuck berry]

Every way could be considered "legit"

[lofty dirge]

just keep playing until you unlock the space anomaly

[granite creek]

i have it alr

[stuck berry]

Then that's the "location". Other locations are proprietary and per-community, and only reachable using portal glyphs or joining through multiplayer

[feral coral]

yo is anyone else crashing when they enter their ship

its weird because it didnt crash for me like when i started but now it is

[granite creek]

Oh, so I just gotta be lucky to find people ?

[feral coral]

it happs periodicoly

[honest patrol]

Is it true that capital freighters will start showing up to be rescued on the 15th jump?

[stuck berry]

Kinda, or use portal glyphs to reach specific planets

[stuck berry]

It's after you have encountered two freighter rescue events so far, so third and onwards

[honest patrol]

But those events trigger every five jumps plus the playtime cooldown, no?

[granite creek]

gotchaa, thanksss

[stuck berry]

The cooldown consists of 3 hours of unpaused gameplay and 5 warps, after both are met, your next warp triggers a battle

If the 5th warp is the final thing to qualify for your next battle, that 5th warp triggers the battle

[honest patrol]

I just saved my first freighter but it's not a capital one and a design I don't want. I thought I'll see the next event (the second freighter rescue) after another five jumps

[stuck berry]

Well it's not a flat 5 jumps, 5 warps is just one aspect of the cooldown

You could warp 324893647859 times within 3 hours and the 3 hours part would hold you back

[honest patrol]

yeah, I understand that the cooldown has two components. Number of jumps and playtime.

But when will capital freighters start showing up then?

[stuck berry]

After your second battle encountered

so basically 3rd battle and onwards

Also, pirate dreadnoughts have that same requirement as well as requiring that you already own a freighter to encounter

[honest patrol]

but aren't the battles always seperated by number of jumps + playtime?

so the cooldown

[stuck berry]

They always follow that cooldown, yes, except for 20% of outlaw systems and 10% of high-conflict systems which begin a pirate dreadnought event every time that they are warped to, ignoring the cooldown, but only if you qualify for pirate dreadnought events

[honest patrol]

Well, I'm trying to hunt down a Venator Resurgent as my first freighter

[dire cedar]

What's going on with this?

[stuck berry]

Multiplayer bug

[dire cedar]

Mkay

[honest patrol]

Is the wiki wrong or outdated then about capital freighters showing up?

[stuck berry]

Wrong, well describing it in a weird way. You can encounter freighters passively in space, which could make the wording confusing. Only your first two freighter rescue events count towards unlocking capital freighters, encountering freighters in space randomly doesn't help

[feral coral]

is anyone else crashing after 20-30 mins of gameplay when you enter ship

[honest patrol]

Is freighter design tied to the system then?

[supple river]

Err has anyone ever had a bug where the game has inexplicably given them about a hundred exosuit and starship storage augments out of nowhere??? 😂

Apologies for the poor phone pic but what the hell is this??? 💀

[stuck berry]

This isn't a bug, it was a player giving you items in the Space Anomaly most likely

[supple river]

Oh damn

[stuck berry]

Players can quick-transfer items into your inventory

[supple river]

Well i wish they hadn't lol

[stuck berry]

Each system has 3 "system freighter" designs and one "capital freighter" design (as well as a pirate dreadnought design if it has those and you qualify for those, but those have very little variation)

[supple river]

I gotta remember how many I had and junk the rest 😂

[cyan grotto]

Are other people's freighters still glitched in multiplayer

[stuck berry]

!hg

[tulip dust]

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

[honest patrol]

ok, so you said that the 3rd battle event should have a capital freighter. That means 15 jumps with 3 hours in between every 5 jumps, no?

[cyan grotto]

Oki doki. Thanks

[stuck berry]

Kinda yeah? No reason to wait like that though, you can continue playing the game and just save before each warp

[supple river]

Guess I gotta keep track of my inventory when I go to the anomaly now lol in case of helpful players boosting me in ways I don't want 😂

[stuck berry]

And the time is unpaused gameplay time, so counting it won't work as any menu or warp/teleporting time isn't counted

[honest patrol]

oh, I'm progressing the game. I just need to know when to expect that capital freighter and start fishing.

[cyan grotto]

Oh I was more referring to the interior area of the freighter not rendering correctly for other players. Like it never looks like how you built it.

[honest patrol]

because then I need to make sure that I'm not jumping into some garbage system with a low chance of a good freighter spawn

[stuck berry]

Was not a response to you

[cyan grotto]

My bad

[stuck berry]

Again, just save (set a restore point) before each warp

if it's a battle with a capital freighter, Reload Restore Point in the options

[honest patrol]

sure, but then it is in fact the 15th jump

[stuck berry]

Unless 3 hours of unpaused gameplay time have not passed since your last battle

[honest patrol]

yes

I was puzzled by you responding with

[spice vessel]

Is there a way to upgrade ship clad without nanites ?

[burnt valley]

Hey there. Quick question.

I thought the game for my friend to play with me in VR.

Are we able to start the game together fresh without issues as I have seen problems with tutorials and multiplayers. Or has that been fixed.

Tia

We will be playing via steam and Quest 3

[stuck berry]

There are some issues with the tutorial with multiplayer, but starting it together hasn't had problems ime

one player can start the game alone in their save and the other player can join, and create a save by joining to start out in the exact same spot

[burnt valley]

So we won’t have issues. How does it work in terms of the starting ship or does it convert to a two man ?

[stuck berry]

The missions/objectives won't sync or anything, and your ships will just be next to each other

[burnt valley]

Fantastic. Thank you so much mate. Have a great evening.

[stuck berry]

There is a new type of starship that can have multiple people fly in it though, see !faq-corvettes in #nms-commands for more info

[burnt valley]

Legendary. Yes we will be immediately looking for a 2 man + ship

[cunning tree]

Is it better to buy the technologies in the anomaly or wait till you stumble upon a blueprint for it somewhere?

[burnt valley]

Shame they don’t convert the one man fighter to a two man with duos

[stuck berry]

Either, but very few technology is unlocked via missions if at all

Unlocking them from the Space Anomaly isn't really a waste

[eager geyser]

Scans for processing plant at waste heap. Plant is an hour away. Yeah, no thx. This is unbelievable

[swift sand]

base computer archives, expanding the base, the base crew missions - those can unlock some of what you have available to "rush" in the anomaly. some techs are quest only - e.g. remembrance, star seed, the minotaur hardframe techs, atlantid drive, resonance matrix. in short, imo, if you want to have techs you see in the anomaly now, go for it.

[cunning tree]

I just have the constant warping to the base computer mission but I’ve done all the expand the base missions

I have the stat seed Minotaur and all that

I’m 2 warps away from finishing the purge

Also should I empty my inventory before I do that quests

[swift sand]

ime, often one can find plants closer than that - it could even be a plant you've been to recently (these stay marked on compass/visor, if still in the same session), if all you need is to process stuff

alternatively, could also try to save+restart game, to clear session markers, and then try again to exocraft radar scan

i'd suggest having multiplayer disabled if you still have it enabled (if you're in expedition especially)

[lucid gate]

where we unlock the flatbed in colossus? isnt in nexus npc.

[jagged wasp]

you need to go to a waste processing plant and tossin one piece of scrap

[stuck berry]

Install the Gravitino Coil and follow the tutorial

[jagged wasp]

you'll get the gravity coil plans byu interactin with the control panel at that plant

[stuck berry]

Ooo, didn't know that one

[jagged wasp]

just like the first steps in the expedition, uh huh

[young dock]

Can you capture sentinel freighter or

[stuck berry]

You can only save civilian freighters that look identical

well, bigger

[young dock]

Is it worth hunting one down?

[stuck berry]

that's up to you

[lucid gate]

i finish the expedition and try to find it in main save....i unlock the legs and 1 cabin in main save..

so need to do the same in main save ???

[young dock]

I dont exactly know what they reward

[jagged wasp]

the legs are an expedition reward, you'll have those already

[stuck berry]

They're just another kind of freighter. All freighter types are functionally identical in stat ranges and usefulness

[jagged wasp]

I think the cabin might also be an expd special in which case you'll have that too

getting the gravity coil and the flatbedare not special to the expedition, they are just part of the industrial waste mission so you do have to repeat those for each save

[lucid gate]

im asking if need to do the same in main save to get the flatbed....

[young dock]

The asymmetrical cabin is a reward from the expedition yes same with the legs

Oh im just seeing the legs already mentioned ma bad

[jagged wasp]

to get the flatbed you must do the industrial waste mission, for any save: find a waste processing plant (place colussus, install scanner + upgrades, scan for it); interact with control panel to get gravity coil plans;l install that; toss one scrap into the fire.

that 1 piece of scrap then unlocks the flatbed

[stuck berry]

Installing the Gravitino Coil after unlocking it from the Space Anomaly also begins a tutorial mission that guides you to a Processing Plant

[honest patrol]

A pirate hunt lead me to some space debris. I left my ship to investigate. After getting back in, I can't get back into the pilot seat as I'm still stuck in 0G mode. What do I do?

[stuck berry]

Fly away and summon your ship to rescue you using the quick menu

you're not supposed to be able to explore those derelict freighters on-foot

[honest patrol]

The game thinks otherwise

[pure lily]

My apologies, I fell asleep while I was downloading haha. I’ll check if it works later today.

[honest patrol]

When you unlock that next row in your exosuit cargo section, will it always open your inventory scrolled down by default when you press tab?

[spring whale]

no performance problems either or anything else notable

[atomic fractal]

Hey I'm trying to give some items to my starter friend but I can't

It says he can't have them

[stuck berry]

Is his inventory full?

Is he actively interacting with something? (like in a shop screen, dialogue or something similar?)

[atomic fractal]

No

Maybe it's because it's a high value item?

It's worth 12M

[stuck berry]

That is not something that prevents it, unless it is packaged technology

Are you able to quick-transfer other items?

[atomic fractal]

Yes

[stuck berry]

That is extremely strange, maybe something changed with the latest update that did that

But I would doubt it, I can test quickly myself

[jagged wasp]

what items? and what exactly is the message you see?

[atomic fractal]

I could do it now for some reason

[jagged wasp]

huh

[stuck berry]

Maybe they were briefly interacting with something, which prevents quick-transfers

[atomic fractal]

My friend has the ps pre order ship, how does he get it?

He said he had it back then

[jagged wasp]

still have that original save file?

if he does, it should still be there...

i fnot, the ps4 version may still have: Options -> General Options -> Redeem Bonus Content or something similar

[rapid remnant]

not a question more of a suggestion I love nms have played it since I could only play with myself and in all the years ive played ive thought it would be realy cool if we had some sort of enemy to fight I know we have some enemies and pirates in space but there's not enough on planet I suggest having pirate bases and pirate patrols that are walking around "collecting" resources and if you stumble across them they engage you instantly unless you have max rep with pirates

Hello guys does someone know if the freighter refiner bug got patched?

[clear pecan]

if i quit a sentinel pillar mission to change difficulty settings, can i restart it

[stuck berry]

Define "freighter refiner bug"

[stuck berry]

Is this a Nexus Mission?

[atomic fractal]

Is it possible to give tech to a friend?

[stuck berry]

Upgrades? Yes (if they have yet to be installed before).
Blueprint technology? No.

[clear pecan]

yea

[stuck berry]

Then no, but you could do a different nexus mission still

[clear pecan]

aw man

i hate sentinel pillar missions but theyre at least tolerable with survival settings off

oh well

[steady elk]

Like when I had multiple refiners in my freighter base, my refiner inventory flickered.

[stuck berry]

Oh, I have not experienced this issue yet, and my freighter base has a corner full of 90 of them in a colossal tower

[steady elk]

Lmao

Ok

Yea havent played for a while just wondering if someone that also had the issue knows if its patched

[wise reef]

Is there some new issue with clipping through floors? I just entered a building on a planet and ramps acted as if they were non existent, and even the interior floors ate about half my boots in height

[thorny ermine]

Question, if I put a technology (ex. The actual Deflector Shield Tech) does that change the stats like it would with an upgrade like putting a weapon in it changing the dps?

[stuck berry]

If you're referring to placing technology in a supercharged slot, placing upgrades tends to be better for most types of technology except nearly all weapons.

You can compare the numbers for yourself though and see this too

[thorny ermine]

Alright thanks ^^ there’s no visible stats on the base tech so I wasn’t sure

[feral minnow]

Hey, I am new to this game. Should I see other players in the Anomaly Space Station when I first reach it? I see no one here.

[stuck berry]

You are supposed to see other players in the Space Anomaly at all times, if Multiplayer is enabled in Options > Network

Players being missing from the space anomaly is the quickest way to tell if multiplayer is working for you or not #nms-questions message

[feral minnow]

It is enabled but I see no one. I was unable to connect with my friends a few days ago too. How do I fix this?

[stuck berry]

Try the steps in this link #nms-questions message

Okay guys next jump I get a space battle (first one I declined the freighter), how do I make the freighter be one of the big star warsy ones?

[stuck berry]

Will this be your second ever battle?

[vapid arch]

yes

[stuck berry]

If so, then it cannot be a capital freighter

only third and onwards can be that

[vapid arch]

oh, so i can just decline this one too then?

[stuck berry]

Yes, decline it and continue

[vapid arch]

I love how you show the SC slot layout in your posts btw 🙂

[dark holly]

My friend just started no mans sky but why am i unable to join them?

Do they need to progress to a certain poiny before i join?

[stuck berry]

You should be able to immediately be able to join them

If you have not done so yet, try adding each others' in-game friend codes too

[dark holly]

Thats what we did

Actually give me a minute

[stuck berry]

Then one of you should be able to load their save and the other should be able to join them from the main menu > Join Friends

Your friend should be the one who gets joined by you, if they are still doing the tutorial

[atomic fractal]

What ways can I bring a friend of mine without using the Anomaly?

[stuck berry]

What do you mean by "bring"?

[dark holly]

I got it working thanks

[atomic fractal]

Transport?

[stuck berry]

Just go to the system you wish to bring them to, then have them leave and rejoin you.

Note that purple star systems cannot be reached early this way or any other way

[atomic fractal]

But if they don't have the anomaly it isn't possible?

They also can't use my portals?

[stuck berry]

Anomaly access isn't required to exit to main menu and/or join you

[stuck berry]

They cannot use Portals at all, but they have full access to Teleporters to reach any bases they have previously constructed or space stations they have reached

You could instead use a portal, then have them join you at the destination via multiplayer

When you join another player using multiplayer, you are transported to the star system that they are in.

[atomic fractal]

I couldn't do this with my friend. He appears in the game friend list, he's added on psn but I can't join him

Only through invites

[stuck berry]

So when he has his save loaded, he does not appear as an option in the "Join Friends" menu?

[atomic fractal]

But they can't use the teleporter of my base to go into a base of mine?

[atomic fractal]

No

[stuck berry]

Not without reaching the system it's in first

[stuck berry]

Possibly try adding each others' in-game friend codes, both ways

[atomic fractal]

I thought it wasn't necessary when having them added on PSN

[stuck berry]

It normally isn't, but this could help get around whatever issue you are experiencing

[atomic fractal]

Corvettes also seem to be extremely buggy with friends

My friend was left on space multiple times when I warped to yellow systems

[stuck berry]

They do have a bug related to their rotation imparted on passengers, yes. This bug is new

[stuck berry]

Oh, I have not experienced this issue

Were they still in the tutorial?

[atomic fractal]

Multiple times when I'm on the anomaly

And I bring someone with me

This person won't get to the other side with me

[atomic fractal]

Yes

[stuck berry]

I have experienced that, I would advise reporting it

[atomic fractal]

It's really annoying

[stuck berry]

Then that may be intentional, as leaving the starter system early could softlock their main mission

[atomic fractal]

I kinda wanted a more immersive way to bring the friend to my world but Corvettes don't help

[atomic fractal]

I actually could bring them to other star systems freely

Also

It seems the Anomaly is extremely buggy if the player shouldn't be there lol

Managed to put my friend there twice

He said it was very laggy

Dude didn't even have terrain manipulator. His game crashed when he opened the multi-tool blueprints shop

[honest patrol]

What does the solar panel power increase for the exosuit do?

It reduces life support drain during the day

a bunch of POIs on Vykeen planets seem broken. At the entrance you fall through the floor and sentinels will spot and shoot you through walls.

Ten years of development, ladies and gents 👌

[jagged wasp]

known bug, fix coming in what I guess will be 6.24

[swift valley]

But on the Switch can you decorate the Corvettes with the decorations of the bases? Because I don't know how to do it but I don't think it's possible on the Switch...

[jagged wasp]

you should be able inside the corvette pull up the build menu and see any interior decorations, I can't say if that's possible on the switch but that's how you would do it

[swift valley]

Okok, I searched and for switch it is not possible, but thanks anyway

[quartz bear]

There anywhere specific to share location of s class Sentinel Interceptor?

[jagged wasp]

ah that is a bummer. still I am glad the corvettes made it to the switch at last

[honest patrol]

speaking of which, is it possible to open the normal build menu when the corvette is nearby?

[jagged wasp]

you needto walk a littlebit away, maybe it's 30u

It's just that .. Less oxygen drain during daytime

[lilac plinth]

Stand on the chair and choose the gesture sitting.

[honest patrol]

They really need to fix those misaligned interaction prompts. It's endlessly infuriating 😩

[ebon spear]

In the expedition, the first mission of phase 5 is to scan the planet's fauna; I need to scan 6. Currently, the mission shows I'm at 0/6, but the problem is that I've already scanned all the fauna. I already have 6/6 in the discoveries section. What should I do?

[swift valley]

I have a similar problem on the expedition: I need to scan the minerals (6 in total) but the planet only has 4.. what do I do?

[winged token]

do the ship figurines do anything?

[obsidian nova]

You need to upload them

[obsidian nova]

Check on top of the large stone pillars for one, and look in caves if you haven't gotten both Stalagmites and Stalagtites

[obsidian nova]

No, they're just for looks. They sit in your cockpit.

[frank ermine]

Good morning travelers! I came back to NMS to check out the new updates and build myself a Corvette, but I noticed some pieces like the Aero parts are locked behind expeditions. Does anyway know if there is still a way for me to acquire those pieces?

[obsidian nova]

Unless they Redux it? No. But if you're on PC, you can always use Mods.

[rustic zealot]

Sometimes the do reruns of past expeditions, but that's about it.

Imo the only real problem with the game is literally this .. Timed exclusive rewards. It sucks.

[obsidian nova]

It'd be nice to be able to play any Expedition at any time.

[rustic zealot]

Yep!

[obsidian nova]

I think there's a PC mod that lets you do that.

[frank ermine]

Ah that's really disappointing, guess I was too late for the party

[rustic zealot]

Im on xbox

[rustic zealot]

There's one expedition going right now btw

[frank ermine]

Yeah it's 21 but the pieces I need are locked behind 20 🥲

[rustic zealot]

Yea I get that, Im missing like the first 3 and 16+17 or 17+18 IIRC.

Just said in case you also want this one, but it's upbto you obviously

[winter phoenix]

You can save edit or mod in access to any expedition rewards you missed if you're on PC. You could also try asking in #nms-lfg-or-trades if someone is willing to give you some pieces.

[frank ermine]

This is a big turnoff for me to be honest, I just read that it might take another year for the pieces to come back in rotation, if they come back at all. That means I probably can't build any of the ships I want. What a bummer!

[rustic zealot]

Yea. FOMO systems suck, no matter what

[winter phoenix]

It is highly unlikely that they will come back into rotation next year. That hasn't been the pattern with expeditions so far. So if you want them you'll have to get them some other way, like I mentioned above.

Fortunately PC users don't have to deal with that FOMO business, but it sucks for everyone else

[ember helm]

i can give you the pieces

you can trade them

[frank ermine]

Excuse me dear sir?! I'm on playstation though. Does that still work?

[ember helm]

ya

DM me your friend code

[frank ermine]

Fantastic!

[ember helm]

though, i think you need PS plus

like, you need the ability to actually play with people

but if you can then i can give them no issue

[barren glen]

Does anyone know why my unfinished fossil display can’t be moved or deleted and I can’t finish it

I placed it down and put all the bones I could on it but now it won’t let me interact with it

[quiet gulch]

Guys, how to get basalt.

Ik i can raffine it

Bur idk from what

[charred haven]

you can find it on some vulcanic planets

[charred haven]

^

[quiet gulch]

Ty

[small lily]

how does class of ship matter

like if its s tier or A tier what diff does it make? is it stats or what

[rustic zealot]

Get the NMS assistant App, its a life saver. Better than wiki and sht that's filled with ads usually and has the same info all in one place.

[lilac plinth]

Storage, SC slots and class bonuses. So yess in the end it increases the stats.

[rustic zealot]

Stats, SC slots and limits the maximum amount of slots you can unlock for them (like Tech and Cargo slots) but it's not a make or break sort of thing.

Game kinda scales enemy ships to your ship strength and ground enemies are scaled to your multitool strenght

[fossil crow]

What do the different figures that you can buy at the quicksilver shop do

[rustic zealot]

Minor stat boost to your ship and looks cool

[fossil crow]

Ok

[fossil crow]

Thanks

[alpine knoll]

I claimed a starship but i didn’t repair it and left to go to the space station. Where can I find the starship? Like is there a marker i can use to follow it?

it’s still critically damaged so i can’t call it over anything

[hazy berry]

is there actually any difference between liquidators minotaur or the sentinel (blue) minotaur?

[drowsy elbow]

there a better way to collect atlantideum? these small crystals dont drop that many

[feral minnow]

I'm a new PC player, I reached Anomaly and I don't see any other players. I was also unable to connect with my friends a few days ago. My Online Discovery Services are active. The multiplayer is enabled. The firewall settings say that both Steam and NMS are allowed for Public and Private. I don't understand what the issue is.

[rustic zealot]

Try to call it in the anomaly. It used to work like a year ago last time I tried. It even repaired the necessary things automatically.

But if it's patched since .. Than you have to do it on your Freighter

[alpine knoll]

okay tysm

[quiet gulch]

Ty

[upper coral]

Where can I quickly find sentinels on expedition 21?

[hazy berry]

just pick up some gravitinoballs, it instantly gieves you 3 stars

[tender blaze]

what happens if I delete a fleet control station in a freighter while it has a expedition in it active but I have a one that is free? will transfer to that one or abandon the expedition?

[swift sand]

it will be fine, it'll just use an available fleet command room

[tender blaze]

alr, thanks

[swift sand]

well, for example, liquidator right arm provides minotaur flamethrower, hardframe techs do not

[hazy berry]

can you mix those parts, like have flamethrower from liquidator, but like hardframe body

[ember helm]

yeah

[hazy berry]

or is it possible to install both

[ember helm]

only one for each limb/part

[swift sand]

liquidator appearance will take prio e.g. if both liquidator and hardframe right arms are installed, liquidator takes prio; but yes, it's possible to install both

[hazy berry]

did the liquidator body have the AI like the hardframe

[ember helm]

i stand corrected

[swift sand]

you were mostly correct, just that we cant toggle appearances on/off

[ember helm]

really wish you could. love the look of all hardframe while having flamethrower capability. oh well, HG suggestion box that goes I suppose

[swift sand]

yeah :))

[brazen flame]

whats the [REDACTED] planet type?

[swift sand]

a synonym for weird aka exotic and RGB aka mega exotic biomes, check !faq-biomes in #nms-commands for more infos. (best way to identify biomes is through their resource list, with the presence of a specific resource and/or lacking one e.g. all weird aka exotic biome planets have gold on resource list, regardless of synonym (or subtype)

[brazen flame]

tyty

[hazy berry]

is there any way to choose which weapon the minotaur uses in combat? it sure does love shooting the mining beam

[shut mirage]

Is there any sort of support for bases that get griefed by changed world generation? My partner and I built our first curious deposit base on the planet Bawtrygg XVI (Chromatic Fog one of the weekend bonus quicksilver planets) and when I returned to it today there's a giant undeleteable tree through our base and the curious deposits are gone.

[hazy berry]

i would still like to keep them installed when i need the,

[shut mirage]

We put a lot of time and resources into building this including a second base that we linked together with underground tunnels and now it's all inaccessible 🙁

[honest patrol]

So for these mission where you have to gather faecum or collect milk, all you have to do is to pull that out of your storage containers and you're done?

[lofty dirge]

yes

[lofty dirge]

well they should grow back, try warping once or pulsing around to see if it grows back

[shut mirage]

I quit and reloaded a save next to the base, the gigantic tree is still growing through the middle of the base, my only recourse seems to be to use a base deconstruction kit to recover resources and spend the three hours building both bases again 🙁

[swift sand]

you can switch between available weapons like you do with a multitool

[hazy berry]

i measn when its in autopilot mode, even if i have selected the cannon it shoot the laser

[shut mirage]

Why would hello games tweak the procedural generation for a planet like that, I'm guessing everyone that built bases (and there were hundreds) got screwed over

Maybe it was intentional to discourage people from staying there?

[swift sand]

on steam experimental branch atm:

Fixed an issue that caused runaway mold to be removed from some planets.
(runaway mould aka curious deposits)

giant undeleteable tree
usually the game detects this and despawns the object when player approaches, i've even seen players report that terrain manip/delete at the base of the object (more or less) even deletes it

[shut mirage]

hmm I might try that, all I know is that the tree wasn't there when we first built the base

[swift sand]

afaik, no patch notes were done towards or affecting terrain generation shapes and assets in recent updates, so it must have been something else at play here

[shut mirage]

I mean people went nuts on that planet during the weekend quicksilver event, literally hundreds of bases were built there because it was really close to the core, the system had activated indium and loads of curious deposits.

[honest patrol]

wtf, so I can just cheese myself an infinite amount of money and salvaged frigate modules this way? I don't even have to hand in the items the mission wants.

[shut mirage]

you're depending pretty hard on RNG to generate those missions

[swift sand]

to be clear, on deliver x amount of resource type missions, it's intended that you actually need to go turn the resources in to the lockbox (usually a trade outpost terminal)

[honest patrol]

It's giving me one after the other

I have it all stored and I'm not losing those items

[shut mirage]

Mission Radar or Anomaly?

[swift sand]

yeah, that'd be a bug, if the mission objective is to collect+deliver

[lofty dirge]

corvette mission radar

[honest patrol]

It's from the corvette mission radar

[swift sand]

if it's just collect, that's fine

[shut mirage]

Mission radar missions are procedural so I guess it's just bugged in that system

[honest patrol]

If a money & item printer is fine, then yeah

[shut mirage]

but honestly if you wanted to cheese and abuse a bug there are far easier exploits than that, but it's your game, play it how you want

[honest patrol]

I'm just running around my corvette and making millions

[swift sand]

ultimately choice is up to you, so yeah

but always feel free to submit feedback to the devs ofc

[indigo trellis]

i have 75 open slots, how much does it need lol (on the corrupted space station)

[honest patrol]

I wouldn't even know where to start

[swift sand]

in your exosuit? bugged then - try to save+reload?

[shut mirage]

this is a known bug

The abandoned space stations always have that one container that doesn't work

[swift sand]

pretty much describe situation, what you see/experience, what you think that should be happening

[indigo trellis]

I thought it could be like 100 inventory spots of junk or something

[swift sand]

nah

[indigo trellis]

wouldn't surprise me with how cooked the station is

[shut mirage]

Just a bugged container, been that way for a long time now

The rules seem to say I shouldn't be able to post a screenshot but I'm going to try anyways

[swift sand]

honestly, i dont remember having an issue with them in expeditions/abandoned universe, but i might have missed one or too

[swift sand]

here anyone can post pictures, different permissions

[shut mirage]

There's my base with the giant tree that randomly appears with the latest update

What's strange is that the terrain manipulations to dig the hole to the underground corridors is still there, just this tree appeared

[lofty dirge]

when do you unlock void eggs

I checked the quicksilver thing and there's no option for void eggs

[swift sand]

are you on pc? if yes, using any mods/sometimes use mods? if not or never used mods, then i think it might just be the game having issues with rendering the object or not. honestly, i'd just rebuild the base and move on

[shut mirage]

You buy your first from the anomaly, but to get psychonic eggs you need to have the dream aerial blueprint from doing freighter expeditions, build that then pulse drive to encounter a living frigate.

[lofty dirge]

there is no option to buy void eggs

[swift sand]

you sure? void egg should be in create quicksilver items/other oddities filter iirc. if you dont see it, pause, discoveries menu, lower left, is the connection to online discovery services active?

[shut mirage]

nope no mods, this is in Euclid on a planet that was extremely popular as it was an anomaly weekend bonus mission, so hundreds of people built bases here, it's like 75k light years from the core, the system has activated indium and tons of curious deposits

[shut mirage]

It's definitely there, try filtering categories

[lofty dirge]

I saw that void egg is in the expedition list in a save editor so idk if you have to unlock it in expedition

[shut mirage]

you can buy it straight away for like 3700 quicksilver

[swift sand]

well, about the curious deposits, like i said, them being removed is a very recent bug, and there's already a fix for that, and perhaps that's exactly the bug that affected the area that base is in: you had curio deposit cluster there, it got removed, and replaced by that object

3200qs

[swift sand]

no, it's not an expedition reward nor an unlock, it's a consumable

[shut mirage]

try adjusting your quicksilver purchase filters, the last one with the fewest options has it

[swift sand]

@lofty dirge as already asked:

if you dont see it, pause, discoveries menu, lower left, is the connection to online discovery services active?

[vapid arch]

What do I do with stuff like this? I faintly remember you could turn these in somewhere for something...

[shut mirage]

You can trade lower value relics at the giant library buildings for a chance at a more valuable relic

[swift sand]

either sell, donate to explorer guild envoy for standing, or exchange at planetary archive artifact vaults (for an item of the same type, equal or higher rarity, but not always of higher value)

[shut mirage]

For my base I guess I'll wait for the full patch to drop then, not sure I want my partner and myself to both go on experimental updates

[pure lily]

Redownloading NMS did not solve the issue

[swift sand]

yeah, just wait for the next patch

[swift sand]

yeah, just bugged on mac atm

!hg

[tulip dust]

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

[pure lily]

This person suggested this and I'm looking into it rn

[swift sand]

so odd that a security issue would have a error description like this lol //offtopic

[pure lily]

Okay looked into it. It's ill-advised to follow the steps provided as it "might" work (if the evaluated issue is a mac problem and not an NMS problem), however, it disables a major security feature.

[pure lily]

Exactly

Was gonna say. It seems irrelevant.

[swift sand]

i've seen plenty of misleading error messages, but this one - heh

anyway, as a test

5minutes - cant hurt

[pure lily]

And seeing at the status of current NMS updates and patches (as well as the number of reports of similar issues), I doubt it's a mac sided issue but rather a NMS File compatibility issue.

[swift sand]

yeah, i've seen plenty of mac players with this issue

[pure lily]

Which should be fixed soon.

[swift sand]

at least 6 or so

[shut mirage]

Does anyone have a link to any good defacto fixes for frame drop issues due to odd vulcan swapchain issues? I'm hoping I'm allowed to link to what I've found so far here that I made on steam discussions, but even with all this sometimes I still run into drastic frame drops yet more intensive games work fine. The drops happen even if I turn my settings way down to potato quality and don't have OBS running https://steamcommunity.com/app/275850/discussions/0/766310215831283579/

[vapid arch]

Ah yes that must've been it, the archive

[pure lily]

Anyways for now, I recommend Mac players to leave the issue for now. Go spend time doing other things and let the devs sort it out in the meantime! 👍

[polar relic]

since a few updates, NMS crashes on me any time I attempt to warp, does anyone here know a fix to this?

[swift sand]

so just to be clear, that link you posted mentions about the known workaround for nvidia users that want to alt-tab and actually get the game to behave as borderless on windows - you did that?

[swift sand]

what platform are you on

[shut mirage]

Yes and it often works for a bit, Windows 11

[polar relic]

PC/ Steam

[vapid arch]

That underwater base mission in anomaly is painful to me, I never tried the underwater stuff

[shut mirage]

But as a streamer I need to be able to click out of the game to turn on or off my stream and recording (and the issues happen even if OBS is closed).

[swift sand]

and the background services setting as well, and/or different combinations?

[dire cedar]

What graphics setting affects loading distance (if any)? Like, is there a setting which will let me see things from further away?

[shut mirage]

There never is anything in the shader cache BTW, but it seems to deleting the "TKGAMESETTINGS" and "TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS"
tends to do the trick if it's acting up, but it seems to only last only a single launch

[swift sand]

look for a crash dump file (pinging you in the #964865106334875698 ), post it there if you have one. run dxdiag.exe , ignore driver signatures, press save all, attach resulting txt file in the same thread please

[swift sand]

planet quality will improve the quality of things drawn further from you as well as increasing render distance, but your antialias option can also play a role

[shut mirage]

yep I changed the profile for NMS in nvidia to
Prefer layered on DXGI swapchain
and
Windows → Processor scheduling → Background services

And turned the low latency off

[swift sand]

what about if you dont use background services but instead applications/foreground, but keep the rest

[shut mirage]

Well the chain swap setting alone didn't seem to fix the issue, so I changed the prirotiy to background which seemed to help, but honestly it seems that it's still pretty random when it decides to drop to a slideshow. Yet I'll quit the game and load up something even more intense like Horizon Forbidden West on maxed settings and run at 200+ FPS

[dire cedar]

Would having antialiasing off help, or hurt, my ability to see things?

[shut mirage]

So I know it's not just redlining the resources

[shut mirage]

If you have a NVIDIA card capable of DLSS turning that on and setting it to performance helps immensely

Anti-Aliasing is a technology that blends square pixels, without it the edges of 3d objects look jagged

[dire cedar]

Does setting it to performance matter on a 1080p display?

[shut mirage]

DLSS performance uses more AI techniques with the CUDA cores to render rather than raw number crunching so it saves quite a bit of resources

[dire cedar]

Alrighty

[shut mirage]

Balanced is usually pretty good too, but performance helps if you're having frame rate issues

[vapid arch]

Am I in trouble? 😮

[shut mirage]

you're in for a treat

[swift sand]

not sure if antialias turned off makes any difference - note that i'm not thinking of fps/performance, just quality and render distance - i never have it off. seems to be that planet quality controls render distance, and antialias can affect the quality of those assets - for example, fsr2 performance makes trees half a km away look low resolution, too much so, while fsr2 quality actually makes them look like trees. another thing i wanted to mention is the planet you're on also affects it - if you're on a dense planet (lots of grass everywhere, lots of trees and rocks, animals, etc), your render distance will be automatically lowered and there's nothing you can do about that - that's just the game's engine.

[polar relic]

sent the txt file, couldn´t find a crash dump file

[shut mirage]

go land on planets and look at the minerals and flora

[obsidian pasture]

Im trying to buy Autophage planetary cahrt but its red out for me tho i have enought void mote. Can anyone tell me what am i doing wrong?

[swift sand]

sounds like part of the UI is showing you incorrect values

[obsidian pasture]

i even thrown all my void mote i had and farmed 4k agaoin still the same =.=

[swift sand]

i wouldnt be able to compare the two games for the simple fact that 1) diff engines, hzd doesnt use vulkan either 2) diff games, hard to use this for a fair comparison. that said, i'm not an expert on this issue, i'd have to go and do some more research on how the whole thing works together on windows

[swift sand]

let me go and try. what platform are you on again?

[elfin urchin]

Anyone with RTX 3070?
What settings your using in this latest patch, every time I change settings to lower, the fps tanks below 10 fps, only way to fix is restart or alt+f4.

[swift sand]

just another synonym - most of these are basically for flavor. type !faq-biomes in #nms-commands , see the resources

[shut mirage]

well that and considering that I'll easily hit my FPS cap in NMS even on FSR 2x rendering (180FPS) most of the time and then this bug hits and it drops to 90, then 60, then 30 etc

[swift sand]

i've seen another player reporting this that when they change graphics settings at all, game performance tanks - only full game restart recovers performance, but then it's completely fine.

[obsidian pasture]

PC

[shut mirage]

And when the bug hits I'll try all sorts of things turn the quality way down to low settings, change to DLSS performance etc and it makes no difference to the FPS.

[swift sand]

and if you simply restart game, it works again?

[elfin urchin]

but getting the right settings is key, Nvidia App optimization is useless.

[shut mirage]

for FPS issues you can check out my steam discussion post link in this comment #nms-questions message

[swift sand]

well, like i said, that might be a bug with the game; alternatively, thinking a bit more about it, could even be a windows update or a driver version

[elfin urchin]

other games run fine, so it's NMS issue

[swift sand]

again, other games arent nms

[elfin urchin]

?

[swift sand]

how many of these other games run vulkan, and do proc gen streaming like nms does?

[shut mirage]

Yeah it likely is a NMS issue because it uses Vulkan which is way different

[swift sand]

it's not a fair comparison

so like saying that, doesn't help

[elfin urchin]

many games I played use vulkan, so

[swift sand]

how many of those are of the size of nms, do rendering like nms does, etc

see the point here?

anyways

back to the issue itself

[lofty dirge]

if I take out all upgrades and modules before going through a portal to a different galaxy, can I prevent my stuff being damaged?

[shut mirage]

best to just swap to a throw away multitool and ship prior

[elfin urchin]

ok getting to point of defending NMS isn't helping the issue that many player do have

[lofty dirge]

you can't swap exosuit tho

[shut mirage]

It's a well known issue, see my post here which has a bunch of links to ways to (mostly) prevent the issue or reset stuff if it crops up again https://steamcommunity.com/app/275850/discussions/0/766310215831283579/

[swift sand]

@elfin urchin it's most likely a bug with the game, since i've seen another player yesterday with the same issue. i understand that it is a pain while you're trying to figure out perfect settings for your machine, but i'd suggest raising a bug report to the devs so that they can take a look at it. and lol, i'm not defending devs, i'm simply stating what's well known - programs arent all made the same, they dont use resources the same way etc.

[swift sand]

note that his issue isn't the tanking on tabbing out for example

his issue is specifically tanking after applying new graphics settings, fully resolved with game restart

[shut mirage]

mine drops even when I'm not tabbing out too so it's still likely to help

Ah well I don't think there's a fix for that, the way the engine works you do kinda have to reboot the game when you make changes

[swift sand]

portals cant take you to addresses in different galaxies - and portals never damage tech

[lofty dirge]

oh I meant galactic core

[elfin urchin]

thank you, I'll have a look, can't ask simple questions here it seems, but thx again.

[shut mirage]

swap to a junk multitool and ship and remove exosuit upgrades to prevent damage there then yes that works

[shut mirage]

it's cool man you can ask, we all have different ways of answering, just make sure you change nvidia control panel settings just for NMS, so a profile for that game specifically for the vulkan swapchain changes

[swift sand]

i just should have said that we've tried plenty of things to get past that current issue and nothing that we tried worked (we didnt try that dxgi swapchain option though iirc), so i was literally trying to save you the trouble of trying steps that wont fix the issue.

[shut mirage]

But anything more than minor tweaks to settings, like changing AA method or other big changes it's still usually best to just reboot the game

[swift sand]

if anything, i was defending how to do proper comparisons between games lol

[shut mirage]

It's okay my fellow entity, you're in here helping out tons of people. And emotions can be high when dealing with bugs and issues with a game you love.

[swift sand]

👀 emotions can be high? certainly. not me, not at this time. i'm as calm as someone could possibly be lol

dont misunderstand

[elfin urchin]

oh found youtube that can also help users with RTX cards: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c74OjdcHJTI

[lofty dirge]

wait do you need base terminus to teleport to a base

[swift sand]

nope

only to teleport out or set teleport in spawn point

[brazen flame]

is the collision for the freighter base bugged for anyone else?

for some reason sometimes theres 1 way barriers which you need to jetpack over at doorways

[swift sand]

seems to be working just fine here (normal game mode; steam, no mods)

[swift sand]

hmm, i didnt notice this on mine a couple days ago, let me go double check

[brazen flame]

yeah same, i did replace the hallway just now, it seems to be less but still wonky collision around the edges if you dont go straight thru the middle

[swift sand]

okay so testing it rn, and i did notice this last time, there's a small bump when i go through the door, but so far not enough to make me have to use jetpack at all. let me try some other doors...

actually that small bump is happening pretty much on any part where i joined two rooms or corridors, but yeah, not enough to make a bump

i'm on steam experimental branch, maybe they fixed something there on this that i dont remember reading now

[chilly dune]

How do I get glass?

[swift sand]

either craft it or refine it; crafting requires resources and the blueprint; refining does not; blueprint can be unlocked from anomaly synthesis laboratory or expanding the base secondary mission iirc or just refine silicate powder

[honest patrol]

What is this space encounter?

[chilly dune]

Thanks

[balmy adder]

Thats was a fix for a some players :
Going to System Preferences -> Privacy & Security -> scrolling all the way down and checking to see if the No Man's Sky app has been prevented from opening - and allowing it to be opened anyway fixed it for me.

[swift sand]

see image: just a random space encounter, not boardable

[brazen flame]

im on normal branch but its the same for me, the actual jetpack needed bump didnt happen anymore

[swift sand]

well, good news! 👍

[round olive]

how do you get an exocraft?

[swift sand]

you'll be able to unlock all of them for free by progressing various quests and missions, but you can also unlock them (i.e. their geobays) with salvaged data from the anomaly when you have access to it

[round olive]

alr ty

[swift sand]

oh, and in the anomaly, goto the construction research station ofc

[round olive]

what does that do

[native ruin]

whats like the best ship?

[cold furnace]

It depends but typically Exotics

[swift sand]

since geobays are base parts, that's where you'll find them. exocraft tech blueprints can be unlocked by talking to the exocraft research npc in the same room in the anomaly

[cold furnace]

Corvettes can be good too

[round olive]

ah alr

thanks

[native ruin]

they are better than sentinel? i heard they were like really good

[cold furnace]

Generally i guess so yea, Exotic ships are like a shuttle but instead of being bad at everything its good at everything

[unique hare]

Could someone explain me what's the most efficient storage container setup? I watched several YT tutorials about this. Mostly I understand the system what's not clear is how couldnI achieve when I send an item to my storage it would go to the specific stack in given category.

[cold furnace]

Exotic ships are all rounders that you cannot go wrong with

[swift sand]

even the "worst" ship, with tech and upgrade modules and supercharged slots, can become OP and deal with anything in the game; additionally, we can package isntalled tech and modules to move to a diff ship when we want to change, so honestly just own what you love the looks of - in the end, anything works.

in short, this system cant be made to work 100% because the game sometimes ignores stacks in storage containers/room that arent storage cointainer/room 0, depending on which items even

ideally, devs will have to expand the current system, or just patch it to work 100%

(sorry, small edits)

@swift sand do you talk in voice channels?

So if I fill storage "0" with items that are like rare and barely used so there won't be any place left in it and the rest of the containers are categorised well ..when I'm sending items they would gobto the corresponding slots?

Or there will be still mistakes?

[swift sand]

i was just thinking about this yeah lol - in that case, iirc it will try the next one that has an available slot. but again, this depends on items, and now that i think about it, even the size of the stacks that were already stored mattered for when item>quick transfer

[swift sand]

sometimes, if a player prefers it to ask a question/show a video. why? 🙂

[unique hare]

So the system just looks for empty storage slots?

Can hello games track players movements? was just thinking it would be cool to see what paths people took during the expedition

[unique hare]

And goes to the next one if doesn't find any?

[swift sand]

it's intended for it to look for the first container that already has a stack but - sometimes, for some reason, it fails to do that.

[swift sand]

no idea, sorry

[swift sand]

yeah, sometimes yeah, it does this

[delicate night]

been a year or two since I last played. Forgot what I was doing. Finished newest expedition. This is what I got in quest log. What should I do next?

[mossy sandal]

I know there's a bug report, is there one for suggestions?

[unique hare]

Yeah the storage system definitely needs some improvement then. I'm 2 weeks into the game and not handling much stuff still already feels like it's getting chaotic and tedious to manage stuff

[pale steeple]

@swift sand I just have a bunch of questions to ask about things and it would be easier just to be in a voice channel to talk and explain it better lol not saying right now just asking I got 3 kids so If anything it would be nap time or at night lol

i'd clear starbirth and track a black hole, and the fossil tutorial, as well as freighter command to get them off the log. then goto catalog&guide, collected knowledge, on the left do you see autophage? if not, then type !faq-purplesystems in #nms-commands , start from step 3
