nms-questions

[swift sand]

they were korvax, but not anymore

[quartz minnow]

Actually that brings me to another question

What even is the convergence?

Is it like a data mind or smth

[stuck berry]

The Korvax hivemind

[swift sand]

like i was saying, because there's another building in the settlement already undergoing upgrade: you cant upgrade 2 buildings at the same time

[quick rivet]

But the one I sent u was the advanced docking zone

[fierce coral]

pretty cute

[swift sand]

that's just the name the landing pad gets at b-class

[quick rivet]

Ohhh

So when it’s gonna be A-class, it will change to “starport” ?

[quartz minnow]

Oh so I was correct

[swift sand]

you could think of it as a networking hub, where korvax entities shared/uploaded knowledge to, where korvax uploaded their memories when they died (the korvax echoes)

[quartz minnow]

So like if they died

[swift sand]

not sure what it will change to, but it will change name again i think yeah

[quartz minnow]

All of their knowledge and memories went to the convergence?

[swift sand]

yes

[quick rivet]

Ohh okay thank you again man

[nimble wraith]

Is there a way to reset the anylysis visor when looking for hotspots? Like I found a copper, but want a paraffinium, any way to reset it?

[swift sand]

moving a bit further than 800u away from copper hotspot should let survey device start pinging a diff hotspot

[nimble wraith]

Ok, will give it a go, thanks as always

[quartz minnow]

Locate with catalog and guide?

[swift sand]

nah, i think they meant on the same planet, like planet has both copper and paraf hotspots

[quartz minnow]

oh

so for some reason I was tryna look for my first ever planet and upload the discovery but it says that I discovered it eleven years ago

I played for just over 4 months

so I think it might be a bug

[stuck berry]

Bug, it's date internally was accidentally set as 000000000

[quartz minnow]

Oh

[stuck berry]

when uploading it, it will update to the upload date

this happens with all discoveries that are uploaded

[quartz minnow]

Alr

[limber kayak]

Man what the hell did you grab a screwdriver and carefully take your controller apart out of pure rage

[quartz minnow]

What item makes the growth hormone stat the most? I want a huge creature

[limber kayak]

Steroids

[quartz minnow]

man if only they had that in NMs

[heavy smelt]

hi all,
i have just started playing nms after a very long hiatus on ps5, and i am loving the new corvette feature and want to build some ships.

i have been looking at some youtube guides for initial builds i want to try, but I found out i needed exclusive expedition parts that are no longer available outside of trade.

i have read that as long as i can get 1 of each part, i can then farm them using refiners, so i was hoping someone may be willing to trade me -
"Aeron-style Sentinel Corvette parts: the Aeron Cowling, Wings of Aeron, Aeron Winglet, Aeron Pyramid, and Aeron Blade."

if you are able, please let me know so we can arrange a trade.

thank you to everyone who takes the time to read through this request.

[fierce coral]

hmmm

whats this

[shrewd steppe]

Hey so my no man's sky is still not working can it be an issue with the game files by chance for multiplayer

[magic nebula]

Can I go back and do older Expeditions?

[stuck berry]

A storm thing that appears on lush worlds, even those that lack storms

[stuck berry]

Only on PC via unofficial means https://cwmonkey.github.io/nms-expeditions/

[stuck berry]

In what way is the game not working?

[stuck berry]

Try asking in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[shrewd steppe]

I can't see people in the space anomaly

[stuck berry]

Personally I use Gold or Platinum a lot

also, make sure to redo it multiple times until the size says "inherited"

[nimble wraith]

I am looking for mineral deposits, and all I keep finding is damn copper!!! argh!

[shrewd steppe]

I'm on PC using steam

[stuck berry]

Try the steps in this post #nms-questions message, if those don't work then post in https://discord.com/channels/146101654981312513/964865106334875698

[dim oriole]

aight

[late otter]

I was on a dreadnaught trying to speak to the captain to claim it, it wouldn’t let me speak to him. Then after like 20 attempts it just blew up whilst I was in it. ??? Why can’t I speak to the captains.

[dim oriole]

I just went to eissentam and forgot to change starships.... does anyone happen to have some leftover resources they could lend me? XD

[stuck berry]

I do not know, that shouldn't ever happen. I haven't seen anyone else report this, other than others reporting interaction range jank/placement issues introduced in Remnant

[late otter]

It’s glitchy as heck, I keep respawning one from an anomaly and something goes wrong each time.

Like it prematurely blows up after taking to shield cores out, happened 3 times in a row.

[stuck berry]

That definitely shouldn't happen, do you have mods installed?

[late otter]

No I’m on ps5 pro

[stuck berry]

If not, then definitely report that as a bug #nms-questions message

[magic nebula]

Thats a bummer.

[tacit smelt]

can i only have mk3 refiner on a freighter?

[stuck berry]

There aren't any refiners referred to as "Mk 3". Are you referring to the Freighter Refining Room, which acts as a large refiner?

[tacit smelt]

yea

[stuck berry]

You can use either those or portable refiners aboard your freighter

why would you want to use any others?

[tacit smelt]

wym?

[stuck berry]

The freighter refiners are just as good as large refiners, and are cheaper to make and have no limits to being placed next to each other

[stuck berry]

Your original message implied that you wanted to build a different refiner aboard your freighter

[tacit smelt]

no, its just that i couldnt build one on a planet

[stuck berry]

You can't build the freighter refining room outside of a freighter

you can however build a Large Refiner at any planetary base, which operates identically

or build the corvette refining thing along the hab of a corvette, which also works identically

[tacit smelt]

im dumb, idk how to phrasethings

[heavy smelt]

Thanks, i have moved to that thread ❤️

[hollow moat]

there is this post on reddit about 2x2 staff location, how to find this place? i entered glyphs but there is only a portal:
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/1ruv7mf/staff_w_4_connecting_sc_slots/

[stuck berry]

Since the player didn't document the latitude/longitude of the camp, you may just have to follow communications stations/bases until you find the right one

[fierce coral]

why does it value so much

[hollow moat]

Oh

[stuck berry]

Many cargo slots

[fierce coral]

hmm i see

YO I FOUND AN EXOTIC

i think

yeah!

damn

[hollow moat]

my first one as well today!

[mortal otter]

My friend (on Xbox) and me (on Nintendo switch) can’t seem to add each other every time we try to it says “friend request failed” does anyone know why

[stuck berry]

Are you sure that you are entering the code correctly?

[mortal otter]

Yes

[stuck berry]

Then I'm not sure, I haven't seen anybody encounter this previously outside of user error

[fierce coral]

looks good

[stuck berry]

either that, or a full lack of connection to multiplayer services

in which case, check if you can see other players aboard the Space Anomaly with multiplayer enabled

for the player that can't, see this post #nms-questions message

[paper yew]

Is there a tier above S for ships (specifically exotics)? I have an option to upgrade my Exotic Ship class at the space station (was dismantling ships)

[stuck berry]

S-Class is the highest class. This option will display an error if you attempt to select it with an S-Class starship equipped, displaying "Max class reached"

[soft wolf]

Where do you find a heat capacitor? Or build one

[stuck berry]

Unlock it's blueprint from the synthesis lab aboard the anomaly

[soft wolf]

Yk how much salvage data?

[stuck berry]

0

[soft wolf]

Or is it nanites

[stuck berry]

It's unlocked using nanites

[soft wolf]

Alr thanks

[soft wolf]

Which seeds are worth getting?

[untold cove]

my friend completed the purge and picked the dark blue dimenson Budullangr, while i picked the cyan (hilbert) one (so we'd have access to both dimensions, we met in the anamoly, but i guess he now ended up in Hilbert with me and cant get back to his dimension... any hope?

[stuck berry]

Did he visit any space stations or create any bases in that galaxy?

[untold cove]

he built a base but no teleporter

[stuck berry]

Then he can teleport to it.

[untold cove]

oh

hold up

[stuck berry]

Bases can be teleporter to if they lack a teleporter

[untold cove]

thanks mate, it worked

[kindred bloom]

with the expeditions why are there rewards at the quicksilver station for ones all the way back to like- 10 or something but obv the only one i can play is 21. This is the first expedition i've gone on so idk fully how they usually work but are the rewards literally just there unable to be atained?

[stuck berry]

If you didn't do those expeditions in the past, yes. Them being always visible is probably a menu system limitation, or something to make you want to do future expeditions idk

[amber pivot]

I’ve seen people collect these like ruined domed tower things? How do you get them?

I have a feeling I’ve been to a planet related to them but I’m not sure

[stuck berry]

From "Relic Worlds" which use all of the brown names here #nms-commands message

they usually say something like "ruined" etc

[amber pivot]

Ok I think I’ve found one of those already so I’ll check it out tomorrow, thank you

Hopefully I find some

[random jewel]

are you supposed to have the atlas and artemis questline at the same time

[untold cove]

when my friend rides with me in my corvette, his character starts spinning, is there a way to stop it without having to relog?

[summer lantern]

Other than exosuit upgrade charts, what should i trade my navigation data for?

distress signals?

[stuck berry]

Yes, this is normal

[stuck berry]

Report this to Hello Games, it is a bug that was introduced in 6.20

[tulip dust]

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

[untold cove]

introduced, like a feature, amazing

[stuck berry]

It's a bug, it's not intended

[untold cove]

obviously 🙂

[random jewel]

it'll be fixed soon -- the sooner its brought to their attention

[dim oriole]

guys is it rare i found a planet with like 7 different robotic creature species on it...

[shut silo]

yeah it is

[stuck berry]

It's only possible for 3-4 robotic species to be on one planet

[shut silo]

good job

[untold cove]

post glyphs?

[dim oriole]

uh idr what they were

[stuck berry]

Portal glyphs to the specific planet

[dim oriole]

i warped away bc i have seen a shit ton of robo fauna recently

[stuck berry]

they appear in the lower left of photo mode

[untold cove]

😭

[gray shoal]

2 variants per species. So technicaly can be 8 diffrent robots

[stuck berry]

Yes, but those aren't species in themselves, and it's not easy to see that within the discovery screen

[dim oriole]

yeah there were 6 at least here

i can try and go back?

found me an exotic there too

oh sorry for the false alarm guys, there were only 4 robotic fauna species.

[stuck berry]

At the very least, here are some planets that also have synthetic fauna

but only 3-4 species each

[untold cove]

ty

[dim oriole]

Found the system boys

onmw

[untold cove]

:))

[dim oriole]

i'll get you those glyphs in just a moment

[untold cove]

[dim oriole]

what is the photo mode default bind?

[stuck berry]

Unbound. Must select it in the Quick Menu

Quick Menu options can only be bound to things on PC, where they can be "quick bound" to numbers 0-9

[dim oriole]

can actually see a robot in the bg there

[untold cove]

can i actually teleport there from euclid/hilbert though

[stuck berry]

No. You must use a portal that is in Eissentam Galaxy to reach that planet.

[untold cove]

crap :))

[stuck berry]

There is a featured base that's in Eissentam Galaxy

which is available to be teleported to at any time at the Space Anomaly Teleporter

[untold cove]

oh, fantastic, thx m8

[dim oriole]

yup

also there is a sporal planet in the system

checking out the other stuff rn

btw it is a red star system if that changes anything

[dim oriole]

also odd question but while you are here, do you have a walker brain i could borrow?

[untold cove]

Never had one of those before. Sorry

[dim oriole]

np

enjoy your new robotic fauna :D

[untold cove]

Ty

[dim oriole]

last thing

@stuck berry are robotic fauna rare?

[stuck berry]

They appear on about 10% of worlds in uncharted systems that support life

[dim oriole]

so no xD

[stuck berry]

so not really

[dim oriole]

how about bubble planet with them?

or sentient rocks?

[stuck berry]

That's a separate thing, but depends on if you mean a bubble world or a bubble lush world

[stuck berry]

Oh, these are really really really rare

[dim oriole]

boring bubble world

[dim oriole]

i MAY have missed a few in my travels

[stuck berry]

Then somewhat common, as "weird" worlds are most common in red systems which are also almost always uncharted. About 1/11 weird worlds are those bubble ones

[dim oriole]

i see

welp, here's to me finding another squid or another sentient rock

which do you think will happen first?

[stuck berry]

The former

[dim oriole]

i see

as i am aware squids are rarer than royal exotics?

[stuck berry]

Yes, by a lot. 1/20 of all exotic ships are squid ones, while the rest are royal.

[dim oriole]

thats crazy

i found mine in my starter system while saving money for a corvette xD

saw something was odd about it and that it was S class and scooped it up

turns out now that i have all the slots, it actually got a really nice layout

anyways thanks for the wisdom

i gtg to sleep i have work tmr

[proper lodge]

Is there upgrade modules for freighter or something similar to it?

Freighter can warp very far but consumes 25% fuel per warp while my ship can't go as far but consumes around 7% per warp

So i want to get the same or nearly same warp efficiency

[young cedar]

Why is #1418605454300549120 so inactive? Is it archived, or is no one making communities?

[tranquil gull]

anyone know why my camera has suddenly started moving on its own?

im on pc so its not a stick drift issue

[inland ermine]

Yes and you have some methods to go around getting them.

[proper lodge]

How to get them?

[inland ermine]

First, some envoys from explorers and merchants guilds sell them

Although it's all random

You gotta buy it to see what kind of module you got

[proper lodge]

Alright thanks

[inland ermine]

Also, derelict freighters might have some

And of course you could play a pirate and attack active freighter's cargo pods

[proper lodge]

Not really an option for me since i'll need to fight 2 freighters at once

[inland ermine]

Wait sorry

mb

I made a mistake

[proper lodge]

?

[inland ermine]

You do earn them these ways

But

You use them like salvaged tech at a terminal on your freighter's bridge

It's like tech terminals on anomaly

[proper lodge]

Those are frigate salvaged modules

[inland ermine]

You pay in salvaged modules to unlock recipes for upgrades

[proper lodge]

Well i know that but is there any to upgrade warp efficiency?

[inland ermine]

That specifically, idk

Unless they added it since Expedition 13

[proper lodge]

Alright thanks

[wheat cove]

I believe the Uenoh XI derelict freighter is the best one for fuel efficiency, see #nms-questions message for a doc with a list of thrm

The tech items are random from a pool at the end, so you might want a few emergency scanners

[wheat cove]

This is usually due to exiting a corvette before it has completely finished the docking animation

[proper lodge]

Alright thanks

[tranquil gull]

Ahh okay, im new to using the corvette so it makes sense

[hazy lark]

Hey I’m pretty new and I’ve been trying to figure out how to get an “Abyssal Horror” egg I’ve been seeing a lot of videos with em as pets I just don’t know how to get an egg for one

Is there a particular way of going about that?

[tranquil gull]

It was an expedition reward

[hazy lark]

Is there anyway shape or form to get one now?

[proper parcel]

can someone xplain to me how to effectively use the jetpack jump? i only manage to correctly jump about 50% of the time

[shell veldt]

anyone knows the best color combination to make human looking color?

now that i ask shoulds like a weird question lol

i am trying rust on white color kinda looks like it but not really

[rare heath]

what is the best food to produce to enhance scanning bonus, ie. the amount of units one gets from scanning

[livid kayak]

Nectar Islands, if i recall correclty

[wheat cove]

You can get an egg from another player who has completed the expedition, or (in on PC) modify your account data to say you completed the expedition (so that you can obtain it in the anomaly from the Quicksilver vendor).

[rare heath]

thanks

[hazy lark]

Oh okay sweet thank you!

[livid kayak]

activate your sprint, press melee and then immediatly jump

[inland inlet]

Any way to reroll construction opportunities? Feels like UI for Settlements is astoundingly minimal.

[livid kayak]

i'm not sure, but i wouldn't worry either way. You'll be able to shape your settlement to your likings with enough time

it's a side content

[inland inlet]

I mean, I have an old settlement that's completely kitted out. More, I just keep getting offered a choice between Dumb Thing and Starship Port, and the wiki says I have like 15 build opportunities per settlement and I have three ports.

[livid kayak]

if you don't like what you have, you can abandon it, or get up to 4 different ones

and start fresh

[inland inlet]

Sure but that wasn't the issue exactly

It's not a deal-breaker or anything, I was just curious

[livid kayak]

yeah i know, and like i've said, don't worry about it too much

[proper parcel]

that doesnt seem to make any differnence. cant seem to figure out exactly how it want me to hit the space bar. is it supopsed to be hard to do or am i just dummy?

[livid kayak]

i mean the spacebar is suppose to stay pressed

so sprint -> melee -> jump being pressed for as long as you want to fly

[proper parcel]

right but half the time i just go up

[livid kayak]

yeah the timing needs to be fast, like try to hit melee + jump almost instantaneously, one after another

[proper parcel]

k i try some more thansk

[livid kayak]

alternatively you can buy the rocket boots and it will have a similiar effect after just pressing double jump, but this tech is known to be a bit "glitchy"

it can send your character flying unintentionally

[proper parcel]

was the rocket boots i was refering to it turns out. and i was only hitting it once and expecting it to go. not double pressing quickkly. told you i dumb ha

quick double tap is consistintly doing it now thank you

[livid kayak]

haha ok, i see 🙂 well, don't worry, and like i've said - if you find this tech a bit too wonky, try uninstalling it and going with my previous method. It's what the most of the community is using

the only downside of NOT having the rocket boots is that you won't be able to rocket jump around the space stations and such

So you'll need to make a choice, there's no perfect solution, unfortunately

[proper parcel]

its the quick forward movement im after thou7gh and couldnt get that to do it the way you were saying. was just going up and momentum was carring me forward

is use it alot going up steep hilss but was expecting it to jump on first tap. thus not hitting it everyu tiime

[livid kayak]

takes a bit of pratice sometimes, but the "melee jump" is pretty trivial after you get used to it

you can try to find some youtube guides for it, so you might understand better how it works exactly

but if you're going to feel comfortable with rocket boots, it's unnecessary, ofcourse

like i've said, just a matter of preference

[proper parcel]

ill try it some more but now that i know that its double tap i should be off to the moon. and at least here in station its going off perfectly every time now that i know what to do. thanks for the help

[livid kayak]

Yeah, you'll only notice that sometimes, the rocket boots are going to go off when you don't really need them to do so... Like if you still hold the jump button during the landing. Might be annoying sometimes, but you'll have to see

i think that's the main reason why most people decide to uninstall them afterall

[proper parcel]

at least at the moment i need it. hunting merchant guils with cargo bulkheads and itll significantly speed up movement in the many amny space stations

[inland ermine]

If I build a container on my corvette, is there any way for me to access it except for walking up straight to it?

[livid kayak]

that's for sure, yeah

[proper parcel]

guy said it suppoed to be 1 in 3 im getting like 1 outa 10

[livid kayak]

yeah, you need the Teleport Receiver installed. Schematics avaliable to buy in the Anomaly

[inland ermine]

Oh, so it just works like fighter cargo?

[livid kayak]

mostly. i think there's a limit to how far you can be standing away from your ship, but it should still work pretty well for most of the scenarios

[inland ermine]

I just need space for all my loots until I finally find my freighter

[inland inlet]

Another question that's a little more meta, uhh

Portal glyphs. Somewhere, I read that inputting the first glyph into the portal all 12 times then teleporting there would take you to a planet in a galaxy usually very close to the center. Is there a general rule for that? Like if I wanted to be like a few hundred thousand LYs from the center in the left of a galaxy, do we know so general rules of how the glyph code should start?

[shell veldt]

anyone knows why i cant press b for third person?

[livid kayak]

i'm not sure about the exact placement, if that's what you're asking for, but yeah - first glyph entered 12 times should alwasy get you very close to the center - that much is correct

[livid kayak]

You mean free cam? Yeah it doesn't work for corvette editing as far as i know. Probably not intended so i expect it to be added in the future

[inland inlet]

I guess I could experiment with putting in all 12 of each of the other symbols. Mostly I want to use the little taxi service to go to a galaxy of my choice then get completely lost when there.

[livid kayak]

if you just want to jump a couple of galaxies, then the first glyph should do the job with no problems, at all. You'll need to make like one or two additional system jumps after that and you'll be at the center of your current galaxy.
Just remember that each galaxy jump will make your exosuit, ship and multitool tech damaged. My suggestion is to uninstall all the main tech before the jump, and storing it in your backpack, or switching to a ship/multi tool you don't really need or use that much.

all your inactive gear/ships will remain untouched

so just switch to some junky ones and temporarly remove your exosuit tech, and you should be fine

[livid kayak]

And just in case: The damage i'm talking about isn't permanent. It will just take some time to repair it all, so it's better to prepare beforhand and avoid the hustle

[noble shell]

What are those 2 planets? I can not seem to reach them lol

[livid kayak]

Just the suns of your current system 🙂

you can't reach them

[noble shell]

thank you

[swift sand]

yeah, not planets, just the "host stars" of the system. not an actual body, just cosmetic

[livid kayak]

You can have up to 3 suns in a given system, if you're lucky 🙂 i don't think i've ever seen more

yeah, it's just a visual, but it looks great if you find the trio

[swift sand]

yep, 3 is max

[livid kayak]

love it

[livid kayak]

By the way, what is your usuall go-to value of ship's manuverability, before you don't bother to go any higher?

just curious

[swift sand]

tbh i dont really look at that value and try to feel it, if it feels nice i stop. i guess i reckon i usually stop at 1.5k/2k?

[livid kayak]

Yeah, that seems about right

[bleak escarp]

help how do i damage this

[livid kayak]

with your offensive tech, not a mining laser.

[bleak escarp]

ah didnt notice the other parts

[swift sand]

actually mining beam should work all the way, but yeah, there's bits to the side that need to get destroyed first

also remember to not have a full exosuit inventory when you try deleting the last bit, the core one

[proper parcel]

i much prefer the external view when flying a spaceship as it provides for much wider view of surroundings. however i find the view from cockpit much easier fly and responsive. i feel like im all over the place with the external view. might there be a sweetspot or particular setup of control settings that might make flying externally feel better?

[livid kayak]

the TPP view shouldn't change the flying model of your ship to be honest, but the cockpit view gives you additional radar, witch makes locating different planets easier, so i'd prefer it anyway

[swift sand]

maybe try options/controls/ship flight control style?

[livid kayak]

yeah, that's a very good idea

[proper parcel]

k thx.

[livid kayak]

by the way, have you noticed a camera glitch when landing your corvette while your character is in a TPP view?

the camera gets all jittery, until you exit the cockpit. Is this a know issue?

[swift sand]

i'll have to test that scenario specifically and let you know, i'm pretty much FPP all the time except exocrafts

[livid kayak]

to reproduce: Set both your flight and character camera to TPP.

and make sure to use a fairly big corvette, as this might be a factor aswell

[proper parcel]

what isstpp?

[livid kayak]

third person perspective

[proper parcel]

oh ok thx

if you are turning when you exit corvette cockpit, sometimes view rotation will bugger up and start rotating some in first person on foot. is there a way to fix this without restarting game?

[livid kayak]

yeah i've noticed that aswell. Enter and exit your cockpit seat again

[warped valve]

um, are there no brightness settings on pc? Cursory google search indicates that they removed a gamma setting at some point?

[proper parcel]

oh..i probaby should have tried that. thx

[livid kayak]

yeah, it usually works for me, just enter and exit without flying off

and when you're landed. Not sure if necessary to be on the ground, but i'm saying it just in case

[hollow epoch]

can sombody link the servers i cant find them

like

[swift sand]

hmm not that i'm aware. the gamma option only appears on consoles (some at least e.g. xbox) now

[hollow epoch]

the other groups

[swift sand]

type !links in #bot-spam

[hollow epoch]

oki

[livid kayak]

you can still set a custom brightness in your nvidia controll panel, or the Radeon equivalent

[rare heath]

does the game forget who discovered a planet or system after some time? I tried building a base near the portal on the planet I settled on, but I get a warning about a previous base registration, yet the planet is listed as me discovering it

[proper parcel]

tethered feels much better for TPP i think

[hollow epoch]

umm not what i meant

like the smaller comunities

the ones uploaded by gunter

[livid kayak]

You can only have one base per planet

[hollow epoch]

not true

[livid kayak]

No? Sorry then

[swift sand]

1 uploaded base per planet per account

[livid kayak]

yeah, that's what i meant

sorry

[hollow epoch]

ohhhhh

[hollow epoch]

nah its my bad

[rare heath]

So once I upload my first base, I can't build a second base?

I'm pretty sure that is not correct

I have planets where I have 2-3 bases for runaway mould, all uploaded

[swift sand]

well, in short, one can make a base and upload it, and not discover the planet. possible that someone visited after you discovered it. also possible that because of a game update its discovery might have been wiped. if you uploaded the discovery, and after a game restart you're still credited, then i wouldnt worry too much about it

[rare heath]

and besides, this gives me a warning about registering the just-placed base computer so that I can even build a base there, I haven't gotten to the part about uploading it

[livid kayak]

i mean there's alwasy only one uploded, even if you press upload on all of them. Only your recentently uploded one will be on the servers.

as far as i know

[hollow epoch]

can anyone answer this in need a #- link

[rare heath]

but again, this is not about uploading the base, I'm prevented from building a base

[swift sand]

so you meant #1418605454300549120 ? i think you have to double check #1418605454300549120 , i dont think there's bot commands with invite links for all those

[rare heath]

I placed down a base computer and interact with it, it gives me a warning about a previous base and that I have to build the base computer elsewhere, there is no base visible, and the planet is listed as discovered by me, and I got here earlier today and been here since

[hollow epoch]

yup ty

[swift sand]

on foot quick menu, scroll all the way right, report base, is there a base to report?

[rare heath]

no

[livid kayak]

Hmm

that's weird, save and reload perhaps?

disable multiplayer? The usuall stuff

[swift sand]

@rare heath have you - yes, save+reload and/or save+restart?

i need to afk for a few minutes

[livid kayak]

save + restart the game, disable multiplayer if enabled and tell us if it worked

[rare heath]

I relogged, same issue

[livid kayak]

ok, and what about the MP?

[rare heath]

I disabled MP and restarted the game, same issue, can't see an npc base or ruin or whatnot nearby either

[proper parcel]

do the insides of all sentinel ships have exposed wiring? looks ugly in VR. only thing i dont like about this ship. need some damned ellectrical tape on them things. dangerous af too

[livid kayak]

And what if you remove the previous base comp, and set up a new one now?

[rare heath]

same, I'm trying to move it around now to see if that changes anything

[livid kayak]

so what's the exact warning you're getting? What does it say?

[rare heath]

It says: Warning: Universal Archive Search reveals previous base registration. Construct terminal on a new site.

I'll just place my portal on a different planet

it's not important, just thought it strange

[livid kayak]

hmm, i got one more idea. If you try to place a base at any specific area, place a save beacon there, temporarly, so you have a marker to come back to, and try to get off the planet and re-enter it again

[rare heath]

I did that too

[livid kayak]

probably all of them, because form a lore perspective they should all be operated entirely by an AI. There never should be any additional pilots inside, so that explains the interior

[proper parcel]

yeah was fraid that might be the case. ok thx

[livid kayak]

i'm not sure what else to do then. You need to wait for bk to come back, he'll probably have some more ideas for you

[severe crown]

In case I am missing something, are there any available light sources you can carry other than the standard on/off built in light? This planet is dark. Like dark dark.

[rare heath]

Ok, now I know the game is messing with me, try to take out the roamer exocraft, I get "exocraft not owned"

[hazy berry]

i have not been able to be on nms for a week now. i had an c class settlemet that was in dept. Is it possiblee for it to gather ungodly amount of dept that it takes 1 moth to clear it off

[swift sand]

wait, just to be sure - do you have another base computer claimed nearby? within ~1000u?

[severe crown]

Have you checked to make sure you are you and not an impostor? 🤔

[quartz minnow]

Not really

[rare heath]

no, I do not, on that planet my base was shown as "8 hours away"

[shell veldt]

it was working for like half the build then stopped

[quartz minnow]

Maybe if you use an exocraft you can get maybe a little more light

[livid kayak]

Unless you really like the style of those ships, you can just build your own corvette and customise it to your likings.

[severe crown]

Eh. Plenty of other planets to check out. This one can just go on living its best mushroom life with no light. 😁

[livid kayak]

I see, well i don't recall to ever have any option to go free cam, except for building the main modules

[proper lodge]

Does living ship has any built in upgrades like sentinel ship does?(aside from being able to warp in any color system without needing to install engine)

[shell veldt]

nono it was working then another player corvette spawned on top of mine and it glitched? i was in the anomily

[swift sand]

hmm. what if you try to move away 1000u from the current spot, and claim a base computer there?

[shell veldt]

farm those

[livid kayak]

oh, perhaps it works in the anomaly? I never tried to edit my corvette there. In any case idk what might have caused the issue

[rare heath]

that might work, but other than the off chance that would make it possible to get back and build in the original location, it would be kinda pointless, since I was going to build a base near the portal

[quartz minnow]

Fly to the 8 hour mark in your starship and see what’s there?

[gray shoal]

Living ships have own tech but it works like normal ship tech.

[rare heath]

my base is there

I just moved to a different planet in the system and do it there instead

[swift sand]

normally, you could expand build bubble to build close to the portal. that said, if you turn off internet to kill connection to online discovery services server, then restart game, does it then let you claim a base near the portal?

[shell veldt]

is there a way to build my corvette outside a space station? or like edit it

[rare heath]

I didn't think of disconnecting from the internet, but it doesn't matter now, I'll just ignore that portal

[livid kayak]

perhaps just buy a map to find a different spot with it

[swift sand]

you mean the corvette ship parts themselves? nope, unless you're on pc and want to dive into stuff like blender

[proper parcel]

i do like this one. have a corvette too but i feel like acceleration and top speed and handling are faster in fighter ships and sentinel ships and the sentinels ships will hover like the corvette and thus are much easier to land. plus this particular ship looks like a railgun which is pretty cool so ill probly just get electrocuted while flying. none of you yell at me. i know electrocuted is only called that if you die

[shell veldt]

corvettes are for either storage or flexing

[proper parcel]

also corvettes are hard to make look sleek without followin some geniuses yo tube video. some of those are just damned amazineg

[rare heath]

I have a build guide for this

[proper parcel]

thats pretty cool but look at this. i want but hate following detaialed directions. feel like im cheating but im sure i will eventualy build one of these

[rare heath]

yep, that one is nice

[shell veldt]

🙂

[proper parcel]

wtf

[rare heath]

ship made in blender I bet

[proper parcel]

oh blender yeah that explains ti

[gray shoal]

Blender much ?

[rare heath]

you can create a ship in blender and use a save editor to put it into your game, so that is indeed a working and flying ship, but I don't think it was built inside the game

[hushed saffron]

its completely vanilla trust 🙏

[shell veldt]

i mean if youre on pc why not build something you be proud off

[hushed saffron]

no glitches either

[proper parcel]

if this is true you ar ea wizard indeed

[hushed saffron]

(it isnt)

[shell veldt]

hehe i will keep the fact that i can fly it inside the anomily to myself

[hushed saffron]

Well, until now

😭

[shell veldt]

watch out the weeping angle might get you

i am in the process of coloring it in angle colors

[rare heath]

This is my current ship. An extension of what I did in my build guide.

[hushed saffron]

Oo I like the shape

We should probably move to #nms-corvette-discussion tho

[proper parcel]

this black one i just showed is vanilla but does use ofsetting tricks and stuff that seem complicated

yep thats my bad i started it

[hushed saffron]

No worries

[rare heath]

On PC, I understand there are mods, is there one that would show hidden stats for the ships, like landing thruster efficiency? I just assume the way I've combined the upgrade mods is not the best way, but the only way I can check is by landing and taking off repeatedly and see what percentages are, but I assume the boost is not optimal either, and I have no way to check that.

Perhaps I should just ask "where can I find mods", so I can check myself.

[swift sand]

no ui mods like that that i'm aware of. yeah, in that scenario, it'd be about launching a few times to see cost. boost is, to be clear, related to pulse engine boost, not in any way related to launch thruster

[rare heath]

ok, so does the boost stat on launch thruster mods affect manoeuvrability then?

no, but then maybe boost doesn't affect that at all

[swift sand]

it affects the boost speed i think, but there's going to be a cap on that so you might not see much of an improvement

[fierce coral]

Just destroyed 3 Merchant Freighters and then destroyed a Sentinel Freighter and not one of them dropped a SFM, this game can't be fr

It doesnt make any sense

[analog scroll]

It's a LOW chance from those sources. You want a better chance? Become Exalted with the Merchants Guild. 1 in 3 Merchants Guild emissaries will give them at Exalted and 1 in 5 Explorers at Master level

[frail turret]

have you tried searching at the #nms-modding channel?

you could also give a try at utube videos or even at nexus...

(tbh, I haven't tried modding the game yet)

[fierce coral]

😔

Is there any "Large Room" in Freighter building?

Can't find it

[analog scroll]

Not anymore, use expansion rooms to help create larger rooms

[fierce coral]

damn

where's that

That's so ass

[gleaming tusk]

once you build a corvette, can you edit it later?

or no

sweet

im building my first corvette rn and I went right for titan parts, if i use just one landing pad part is that gonna be enough or

[hushed saffron]

Yea

But landing pads will give additional bonuses up to 3 pads. You can have as many as you want though

Same for thrusters, reactors, weapons, etc

[gleaming tusk]

does the legs one lift the corvette further off the ground? that's the one I wanted i think but if it looks like im putting it on stilts idk LOL

bc i probably cant afford more than one 😭

[hushed saffron]

Yea i think so

Good if you want to put habs and stuff on the same level as the landing gear

[gleaming tusk]

is there a way to disable auto save?

that way I can just, buy a bunch of shit to test without issue

damn..

[sudden apex]

Just start a creative save

[hushed saffron]

You can set a manual restore point and do it that way

[analog scroll]

Creative is your best bet

[hushed saffron]

Or a creative save (you can also set crafting to free in difficulty settings which does the same thing)

[sudden apex]

And use it for all your testing

[gleaming tusk]

if i start a creative save do i still have to go through story or can I just summon a ship and head to a trading post

[gleaming tusk]

probably gonna do that and then just delete the stuff after, thanks

[hushed saffron]

Coolio

You might have to set purchases to free too if you dont wanna pay for it

[gleaming tusk]

bc i dont really have 10 mill to spare to make some mistakes lmao

[sudden apex]

You have to repair your ship but repairing and buying is free in creative

[gleaming tusk]

ic ic

so manual restore point, set stuff to free, load back. thanks guys

[wooden crystal]

is there any way to fully uncap frames?

[fierce coral]

If i place a mod can other people still join me and stuff?

[shell veldt]

Is it possible to summon three of my corvettes next to each other on a planet so I can take a screen shoot? I mean if I build the landing pads next to each other

[gleaming tusk]

ive not messed with this at all obv but is there a benefit to having more than 1 hab unit? do i literally get to build inside of it

[analog scroll]

There are no landing pads for corvettes, and yes that's possible. Just summon with your quick menu

[analog scroll]

Yes, but they may not see it

[fierce coral]

That's ok for me

[shell veldt]

I did but every time I summon one the other disappear

[gleaming tusk]

how do i set a restore point? any one of those "Save" places?

[shell veldt]

Go in ship and leave

[gleaming tusk]

You can swap advanced parts for other advanced parts at the corvette terminal

You don't lose the modules if the trade fails

Also note that functional modules are more valuable in the trading system

[fierce coral]

Can't i just reload until the 1% hits

[fierce coral]

What's that

[stuck berry]

I don't think so, I assumed the chances for each specific trade were predetermined

[fierce coral]

I bought 5 random maps

[swift sand]

glad i could help. yeah, knowing that bit about the charts mechanic can certainly help when target farming specific POI

[swift sand]

the "random maps" option on the cartographer always drops the same chart type per system (you dont get to chose) - you'd normally want to exchange nav data for specific charts instead

also see <#nms-commands message>

[fierce coral]

are these guys infinitely spawning

[fierce coral]

Isnt that op?

Thank you

[stuck berry]

Not normally, no

[gleaming tusk]

isnt how it works they spawn infinitely for a set time

[swift sand]

heh, well, many wouldnt want to have to find a random system or systems to get the charts they wanted

[gleaming tusk]

after egg break

[stuck berry]

Not really, defeating them faster has ended them faster I think

or maybe I'm thinking of the mission ones that go away immediately once the objective is reached

[summer ermine]

Idk why but I can only access five plants in NMS

[swift sand]

sometimes keeping on killing them will keep them respawning

yes

if we stop killing them, then eventually swarm subsides

[stuck berry]

What do you mean?

[gleaming tusk]

someone mentioned an issue with having 2 landing bays?

[summer ermine]

Like even with the fastest I can go engine I can't find other planets

[stuck berry]

Personally I haven't experienced any multi-landing bay jank since Voyagers first came out

[analog scroll]

Have you progressed the story far enough to be past Awakenings?

[stuck berry]

Progress the tutorial to unlock the Hyperdrive and the Galaxy Map

It's impossible to reach other star systems using the Pulse Engine

[summer ermine]

Oh

I've discovered 4 or the 5

[stuck berry]

If it was made to be possible, it would take centuries to go from star system to star system

[summer ermine]

Ah

Do I need to discover all 5

[stuck berry]

No

Just follow what the tutorial mission "Awakenings" says to do

[summer ermine]

Some of its kinda hard

[swift sand]

i think this has been patched? iirc, some issue with beaming down with 2 thunderbird landing bays?

[summer ermine]

And since i planted a base computer do I need to stay near it forever?

[stuck berry]

No

You can build up to 400 bases

You can also delete any of them later

[summer ermine]

WOAH

[gleaming tusk]

specifically, 2 thunderbird landing bays? or any bays

[summer ermine]

I can't remember what I was stuck on but when I get on the game later I'll tell you guys

[swift sand]

yeah iirc that was only with thunderbirds

[fierce coral]

interesting

do i carbon feed all of em?

[gleaming tusk]

radical, so ill be good with 1 regular and 1 thunderbird one

[swift sand]

charge them all to 100%, but will need more than just carbon

[analog scroll]

Only some will charge with carbon

[gleaming tusk]

does corvette size affect speed and handling?

[analog scroll]

15 isn't charged

[swift sand]

i think it was in the release notes for voyagers that the devs said that smaller corvettes would be nimbler than larger builds, but i'm not sure how much of that gap can't actually be bridged with tech+upgrade modules

[analog scroll]

Neither is 11

[fierce coral]

I know

all i need is di hydrogen

harvesting it rn

[gleaming tusk]

ic ic, thank you

[fierce coral]

I dont have glyphs yet

[summer ermine]

Oh wait but when can I upgrade my ship?

[analog scroll]

Then you can't use the portal

[analog scroll]

You can buy upgrades in the space station in that system, or buy any of the NPC ships in that system as soon as you can afford to

[gleaming tusk]

are all parts in "exterior decoration" other than the cargo pieces cosmetic only?

[stuck berry]

Even the cargo pieces are cosmetic only I thought

their addition may add or remove maneuverability I think, like adding sleek things adds but bulky stuff removes

if I remember correctly

[swift sand]

yeah

a tiny bit, like .1 maneuver or something small like that

[hazy berry]

what actually causes the bug that stuff in refiners and nutrient processors despawns

[gleaming tusk]

it shows a +1 to cargo for most of it

[stuck berry]

Ohhh, I never noticed that

[analog scroll]

Leaving the area has been known to cause that for a very long time. Doesn't happen with everyone, doesn't happen every time; but it does happen

[gleaming tusk]

probably bc it's really easy to hit the limit it seems lol

[hazy berry]

any idea what the size/diameter of this area would be

[analog scroll]

Render distance

If you can see the machines, even on your freighter, you're fine

[gleaming tusk]

mmmmm is there any way to dial back through save points? i forgot that hopping into my corvette would save it LOL

shit

[hazy berry]

doesnt the game create backup saves in the games folder?

[analog scroll]

No, you have 2 saves: Auto and Restore Point

They are overwritten constantly

[hazy berry]

ahh okay, i was thinking that maybe on pc you could rollback your save

[stuck berry]

If you manually backed up the save files/folder, then you could replace the current ones with those backups

but otherwise, only the two current save slots exist

[gleaming tusk]

If i dont make an effort to protect individual parts can they be damaged

[stuck berry]

No.

There isn't any locational damage system

The technology damage system is solely random, with the chances increasing as your shield decreases

[gleaming tusk]

soo are hull piece cosmetic then?

[stuck berry]

Pretty much

[gleaming tusk]

are wings cosmetic?

[hazy berry]

lets jsut say that i see my corvette but not the refiner in it. does that count?

or will it be in risk of despawning

[stuck berry]

I think they increase maneuverability a little in weird ways, but otherwise are also cosmetic

[gleaming tusk]

hmmm alr

[stuck berry]

That is a good question, as the entire interior switches to low lod when any significant distance away

but this shouldn't affect the processes like refining, only true "unloading" should I think

[hazy berry]

what about warping, if i warp to another system in space while they run

[stuck berry]

I would expect them to lose their contents

as that is a full unloading/reloading in most cases

[vital estuary]

The corvette refiners seem to have been keeping the contents while warping for me, would not trust freighter ones however.

[hazy berry]

i rarely use the refiners, im more curious about the nutrient makers

or waht they where called

the ones where you cook

[vital estuary]

My experience is the same as refiners for those.

[white wagon]

Hi there. Hoping someone can help me with a mission 😅

I retired from a settlement I started because it was a really crappy settlement, and moved to a new one.

However, the 'Trace of Metal' quest started as soon as I took over my new settlement, and now it won't let me build my administrative terminal in order to accept the quest's signal? 😅 ANy idea how to get around this?

[hazy berry]

hey Grouch can i ask you for an small "favor"?

[white wagon]

It won't let me retire at the new settlement either, since it says 'Cannot retire because it's linked to trace of metal'

[stuck berry]

Finish the mission

[hazy berry]

you have been documanting alot of creatures

[analog scroll]

Trace of Metal shouldn't have you accept a signal in the overseers office iirc. It starts with a sentinel raid

[white wagon]

I can't? It says to use my terminal in order to get the signal, but to get the signal I need the administrative terminal, but the signal won't let me build the terminal

[hazy berry]

have you found any "machine" like?

[white wagon]

Yeah, a bunch of sentinels showed up as soon as I took over the settlement and I took them out, then it immediately moved to the signal

[summer ermine]

Well what Abt the tutorial area? With the 5 planets?

[shell veldt]

where do i find the file that house my corvette design?

[analog scroll]

Everyone starts in a different system, but where you purchase upgrades remains the same; however you have to progress the story far enough to be able to see the space stations before you can easily visit them

[summer ermine]

I'm in some goofy place

[white wagon]

So now everytime I go to the settlement I get attacked by a group of sentinels(including a walker). WHen I clear it it tells me to go to the administrative terminal, but that hasn't been built yet? And I don't have an option to build it or change which settlement the building uses.

[gleaming tusk]

trying to figure out how to make a decent sized corvette without having it look like a door. any suggestions?

[stuck berry]

It's not an isolated file, it's data within your save file. You can use a save editor's raw json editing function to find your PersistentPlayerBase entries, which includes your corvette designs

[analog scroll]

#nms-showcase-corvettes might give you some inspiration

[gleaming tusk]

thanks, time to go steal someone's design

[stuck berry]

What happens when you track "The Settlers"?

[gleaming tusk]

and then make it objectively worse bc i cant afford it

[stuck berry]

That should guide you towards building the overseer's building as it's first step

[shell veldt]

is that like a seperate mod?

[white wagon]

Says this. I know how ot build the overseer building, I've done it before, but there's no option to do so

[stuck berry]

No, it's an external tool

#nms-modding message

[white wagon]

I tried grabbing another settlement and was able to build the OVerseer's office on that settlement, but it doesn't have the trace of metal quest so I can't answer it there either

If I try to retire out of the settlement I get this message 😅

[frigid wadi]

So...after you destroy all the sentinels, it won't let you build the overseers office?

[shell veldt]

i found it and exported the file, came out as a zip file. now how do i move it to blender

[stuck berry]

I doubt that the save editor's custom format for these would be compatible with the base building app/blender plugin, but idk I've never done it that way. Continue following the guide related to whichever one you're using https://djmonkey.uk/no-mans-sky-base-builder-blender/guides/

[white wagon]

It did not! I even ran around the place looking for the physical building, nothing 😩 Tried restarting the game. Warped a couple of times then went back, nothing.

[frigid wadi]

hrm...ok, just a thought. Leave the planet, and go somewhere else like the space station. Then, go to difficulty and switch off on foot combat. Then return to the settlement and see what happens

I suspect the settlement is bugged though. I had it happen to me a few days ago when I was trying to add a new settlement. Luckily, I was able to retire, leave the planet, return, and find a different settlement on the same world

[analog scroll]

The mission is blocking the settlement. Not likely something that will be solved by changing foot combat. Might be able to be solved with a save editor if that is an option

[frigid wadi]

Sometimes, removing on foot combat will remove sentinel attacks and bypass them altogether

[analog scroll]

It's not the attack that's the issue, it's getting the signal after the attack that is. The mission wants the Admin building, and is somehow blocking the Admin building from being constructed

[frigid wadi]

Yeah, theres a settlement bug around though where for some unknown reason, you cannot construct the overseers office in some settlements

LIke I say, I took one over a few days where it wouldn't let me, and because it was just a normal settlement, I was able to retire immediately, leave the world and then fly back in on the other side of the world and find a new one

[livid kayak]

How long does it take for pirate stations to restock the sus packets?

[analog scroll]

Couple of hours

[shell veldt]

is it even possible to spawn multiple corvettes next to each other so i can screen shoot them....

[stuck berry]

No.

[shell veldt]

every time i spawn one the other disappear

[stuck berry]

When you summon a second corvette, the first one disappears.

[shell veldt]

even with launch pads and such?

[stuck berry]

"Launch pads"?

There aren't any buildable landing pads that support corvette-class starships. Regardless, this is unrelated to our inability to summon more than one corvette-class starships at a time.

We can only summon our current primary starship to landing pads, which requires summoning them in the first place

[gleaming tusk]

does supercharging something often/usually benefit things like the azimuth's recharging feature, even if it doesnt show a number

[stuck berry]

For that, no.

[gleaming tusk]

:(

[shell veldt]

kinda sucks would be cool so make giant structures for screenshoots and such

[stuck berry]

For most things that just say "enabled" or something else binary, supercharging or installing multiple of it has no effect

[gleaming tusk]

hm alright

so does supercharging base components etc usually do nothing?

fuck I wasnt aware that parts occupy tech slots 😭 that really sucks...

[stuck berry]

No, they all have hidden stats, but these are usually much worse than their upgrades, except for all weapons other than the neutron cannon

[gleaming tusk]

hm

[stuck berry]

the notable ones are the Pulse Engine which has some pulse drive power, the Crimson Core which grants +600LY Hyperdrive Range, and the Luminence Engine which gives a tiny bit more pulse drive power

The latter two are core technology of sentinel ships

[gleaming tusk]

they should give corvettes an extra row for tech slots 🫠 my ship is like mid sized and I barely have anything left

I see

[stuck berry]

!hg

[tulip dust]

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

[stuck berry]

note that we can add up to 60 technology slots onto any S-Class thing

[gleaming tusk]

wait WHAT

soo do the rows just expand this way?

wait what's the limit on cargo?

[swift sand]

120

[gleaming tusk]

holy shit ok

thanks

so how does having duplicates of a weapon work, do I get a second set firing, or do I just get whatever the passive buff is from it

[red crater]

Hi guys, my photo mode does this, idk it always becomes darker as i use it

[gleaming tusk]

like I have 2 photon cannons arrays rn

[stuck berry]

Set Options > Graphics & Display > GTAO to anything but off

[stuck berry]

Yes, you will have to increase the ship's class though first
or do that trick where you install corvette modules beyond the limit

[swift sand]

iirc for most weapons at least only 1 of them visually fires at the same time (but with high fire rate it might seem that all shoot at the same time), and only up to 3 will have stats. phase beam on corvettes is a bit broken because if you add more than 3 they all contribute to damage, which isnt intended probably

[stuck berry]

It's supposed to be that up to 6 weapons will fire at the same time, which the phase beam technically follows correctly but each beam counts as more damage

[gleaming tusk]

so does each class up give another row that can be added to with those individual upgrades?

[stuck berry]

As the chart shows, reaching each class allows you to increase the tech inventory at starship outfitting terminals to that amount

[red crater]

It's off now, but it does this dark effect

[stuck berry]

Then do as I said, and set it to anything but off.

[swift sand]

ah ok! so if i had like 6 photons on, they're supposed to shoot at the same time? hmm but last time i tried they didn't ok

[stuck berry]

Not at the same time, just in sequence/rotation

[swift sand]

ahh then yeah, that part matches what i experienced ok thanks

[stuck berry]

One fires after the other, for a combined firing speed that matches other ship types

[red crater]

My English is really bad, i translated and did as you said, it works! Thanks

[outer tree]

I haven’t dived into building a corvette yet. Is the idea to gather/buy parts until you have enough to build something decent? I was digging up salvage last night and the inventory fills fast 😂

[swift sand]

remember that you can store corvette parts in the workshop cache in space station (160 cargo slots)

[raven dune]

What are the best mods for the staffs

[swift sand]

you could build a basic one now, and keep adding to it later

[swift sand]

basically after built they're just like regular tools, can use the techs/builds you normally use for others

[outer tree]

I’ve read that some parts you can only find digging up. Is it true?

[raven dune]

Sweet what are some of the best mods for multi tools

[outer tree]

Or all can be bought in a space station?

[analog scroll]

Only basic corvette parts can be found in space stations. The rest have to found in other ways

[swift sand]

well we can barter for parts

[outer tree]

You can build one and fly it and add to it later?

Nice

[outer tree]

Yes, you can barter but does this include all the parts available or you have to dig them up?

[stuck berry]

All available parts to be dug up can also be traded for

but they can only be traded for using other dug up/traded for parts

[swift sand]

the only thing i'm aware relating to that is that this list (ballast tank, coolant distributor, fuel cell, plasma core, shielded joint, high-energy ducting) still dont drop in game, and wont be available for barter either - would need to be using a creative save to have access to them.

[outer tree]

OK, so I’m just getting into building a Corvette, my best option is to get out there and start digging

[swift sand]

you mean like in terms of weapon techs? mostly a matter of player preference, lots go with neutron cannon for example

[outer tree]

To build up my part inventory

[swift sand]

some players like to build a basic corvette, and use its autopilot to fly above planet surface so that they can still use the analysis visor to find salvage container yellow wifi icons; when they find one, they mark it, then get back in the seat and shoot the area where the container is from the sky

[radiant cairn]

I used to play a lot of NMS and now that I return I have no idea what to do. How do I get sentinel or living ships?

[little walrus]

found a planet where all the islands are perfect squares with a hole in the middle, and everything is black and white is that normle

[rare heath]

not every ship type has 120 as their max, as you can see, exotic is 105, fighter is 100, shuttle, explorer, and solar is 110, rest is 120

[swift sand]

yeah, but in that case we were talking about a corvette

[gleaming tusk]

wait do you upgrade tech slots in exosuits with the same things you use for inventory?

[white wagon]

Okay I'm back and have fixed the problem!

So warping didn't work, difficulty and the on-combat stuff didn't work. Restarting the game didn't work. Making a completely new settlement didn't work(THough orguburdurville the Vykeen colony now has a lovely fishing pond <3), going through teleporters and warping around a bunch didn't. I ran around the settlement looking for the building or the option to build it, nothing.

Weirdly enough, what fixed it was going to the Anomaly? Because I went back down to the settlement and ran around and the overseers office was just there 🤔

[rare heath]

ok, I just caught that one message as I scrolled past to update myself 🙂

[swift sand]

yep, same principle goes for everything else

[white wagon]

Ye

[gleaming tusk]

oh, ok LOL

ive been struggling w my tech slots and ive put maybe 20 new inv slots on, wish i knew sooner 😭

[white wagon]

I don't think it's normal but there are weird planets. i found one where everything glows and there's creatures made out of hab modules and one planet covered in giant mineral fins 😅

[rare heath]

I think maybe the normal is that things are weird and different 🙂

[gleaming tusk]

I found a moon with like 5 wrecked ships and 4? wrecked freighters, and borderline nothing else. that was a good day

[white wagon]

I'm just happy my very first planet had a S rank(royal??) ship spawn on it 👀

[gleaming tusk]

wow

congratulations lol

[white wagon]

Well the one I flew across the system too from the first one but the one with my first base lol

[analog scroll]

Every populated system has exactly 1 exotic model with the same spawn chance

[gleaming tusk]

has anyone done stuff with taming creatures or making your own? is it worth it?

[hexed kindle]

does the medusa class corvette reactor have adjacency bonus with any other starship techs?

[white wagon]

Yeah! It was just like the first crashed ship I found which was cool 🤣

[stuck berry]

No, it only has adjacency with itself and cockpits

note that placing 3 medusa reactors before placing the cockpit will make the cockpit not appear in the tech menu, and allow for the third medusa one to appear there instead

this can be done with an existing corvette by removing all medusa reactors/cockpit, then adding the reactors, then adding a different cockpit I think

[hexed kindle]

yeah that's what i currently have going on, thanks a bunch

[gleaming tusk]

so can you then remove the bonus reactors and free your tech slot up of the cockpit?

[stuck berry]

No, so you can instead have 3 medusa reactors, which have more stats than the cockpit + 2 medusa reactors

[gleaming tusk]

I see

i googled about adjacency bonuses and this infographic is giving me anxiety trying to grasp it 😭 does anyone have a simplification

nvm i got it lol

[inland inlet]

Any way to get the Mark of the Denier after Atlas Path?

[lean oriole]

Wheres that guide on finding all water planets? tried using the gas giant only system way and still cannot find a water world. :c

[analog scroll]

You get either the Star Seed or Mark of the Denier. They both do the exact same thing

[rare heath]

actually, I want to answer that in a slightly different way than what Grouch said; when you start with your fresh corvette, you might notice that you have very few available slots for additional tech module upgrades, like those S-tier and X-tier upgrades you want to slap on there. What you can do is to slap on 3 of every weapon, if you can find free spots on your ship, 3 of every reactor, 3 landing gear, 3 shield modules, then finalizing the edits. This will add the requisite number of tech slots to contain all those parts. You can then edit your corvette and remove everything you don't need, and the tech slots will stay, but they will now be empty.

In the end it won't matter, since you can get to 60 upgrade slots either way, but in the beginning, before you get enough modules to unlock the tech slots + the inventory slots you want, this can be a quick upgrade to make

and when I say "if you can find free spots", be creative, since you're going to take them off immediately anway, just litter your ship with extra weapons and reactors and stuff, everywhere you can find, up to the limit of 3 of each (you can add more than 3, but you will only see the first 3 in the tech slots)

[lean oriole]

expanding vette slots is super expensive and grindy tho, gotta find alot of augmentations thingys or just pay for it.

same thing for starships.

[rare heath]

in fact, I would say that if you can't find enough free spots, consider temporarily removing cosmetic stuff to make spots free, and then just add them later

[rare heath]

yes, but over time that's going to be a solved problem, unless you add more ships and corvettes to your collection often

[lean oriole]

they want 90m just for 1 slot upgrade for my vette :c

[rare heath]

I have lots of upgrade things now for just about everything, after my half-week spent grinding out the guild tiers

[lean oriole]

this is something you do late game, dont worry about it until you max everything else out, (exosuit, multitool, etc).

you can get a maxed starship easier and use that until you can max your vette also.

[rare heath]

I didn't understand the part about a region in space hosting the same guild, so I was cursing why there were so many merchants guild envoys, while I needed mercenary envoys, so I got a lot of free upgrades from merchants before it registered that only the few systems outside the region I had been visiting actually helped me get progress

[lean oriole]

yeah, im still learning the guild mechanics

so much to learn

[rare heath]

but well worth for all the free stuff

[gleaming tusk]

woah ok, thanks a lot

[bleak violet]

What's the best way to get my first salvaged frigate module?

[tulip dust]

-# to view info below, enable embeds

Salvage Frigate Modules (sources)

See Image »

Recommended Derelict Freighter system

Euclid:

• A few jellyfish
• 53 Crates
• 1-3 SFMs per visit
  source: Xaine (YouTube video )

Notes:

• Lockers and suitcases in Derelict Freighters won't drop SFM.
• Attacking NPC freighters in Outlaw systems doesn't trigger Sentinel ships.

Shared by: tyndall_ Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[bleak violet]

So crashed freighters/derelict freighter crates?

[analog scroll]

The best sources are to raise your guild reputation and get them there

All other sources have a very low chance

[rare heath]

don't you get the option to manufacture such a piece when you get to the end of a derelict freighter?

no, sorry, frigate modules, I was confused, you get other things from that

[bleak violet]

Can you elaborate please?

[analog scroll]

1 in 3 Merchants Guild emissaries will give them at max reputation, 1 in 5 Explorers guild reps will have one at Master level reputation

[rare heath]

in each space station there is a guild envoy up on the walkway, at the right end, if you raise your rank with those, the higher ranks have free stuff, and sometimes upgrade modules for various equipment and stuff

As an example, on this explorer guild envoy, I can pick up 5 ion batteries, 1 warp hypercore, 1 A-tier radiation protection module, 1 storage augmentation for starship, and 1 S-tier pulse engine module, all for free; as well as purchase sodium nitrate at a 60% discount

All of these unlock at different tiers of rank with the respective guilds, and you usually need to get to the Master or Exalted tier for the really useful stuff, like those upgrade units for various types of equipment

[bleak violet]

I see
Is there a way I can see which guild is on which space station before I warp there?

[analog scroll]

Only if you're warping within the same region and you already know which guild is in the system you're warping from

[rare heath]

sort of, if you see that a space station has Merchants guild, when you check the galaxy chart make a note of the region that is listed for the starsystem containing that space station. All space stations in that region will have merchants guild

but if you enter a new region, you have to enter a space station to check. There is a symbol over the envoy, when you land you can look to the walkways, and then up to the right, there will be a big lit symbol over the envoy where they sit, which shows which guild is in that station/region

[bleak violet]

How long would you guys approximate it would take to get max rep for merchants?

[hexed kindle]

if you've got all the relevant materials to donate to them and just keep hopping between their stations, less than an hour

[last flare]

Is there a YT video or anything telling me kinda what to do? I haven't played in a long time and I honestly just don't know where to start or what to do

[bleak violet]

Oh I thought I was just supposed to do the missions, would that take a lot longer?

[rare heath]

yes, it will take a lot longer... however, if you need to grind for the materials, it might be more of a toss-up

so if you have the materials, donating is super quick

[bleak violet]

I'll probably need to grind for the materials but I'll check

Thank you guys

or girls

[analog scroll]

Follow the story

[rare heath]

you can only donate a few of each to any one envoy, so if you find out that you have 20 salvaged glass, and can only donate 3, warp to another system in the same region and usually they accept some of the same things

[bleak violet]

Is there a way to see regions in the teleportation terminal by chance?

🙁

[bleak violet]

Thx

[lean oriole]

so does haulers have more max inventory slots?

[analog scroll]

Haulers, Interceptors, and Living Ships max at 120 cargo at S class

[unique hare]

I've recently did maxed out rank with merchant guild and it did took me quite the time. Missions and donations for a couple of days, but I don't have much time to play (2-3 hours per day)

[unique hare]

Yeah but you can see the region on the galaxy map. Recently discovered this as well as I was trying to find merchant guild envoys.

[proper lodge]

how do i plant something in cultivation rooms on freighter and change what grrows on walls?

[analog scroll]

Build it like a base part, assuming you have the plants unlocked

[lean oriole]

I think haulers should have more than others, defys the whole point of being a hauler and makes it absolutely useless

give haulers like 160-180 inventory slots.

and i'd totally use them.

for when im mass-farming something.

hauler full of nipnip 😛

[urban briar]

A lot of those people were posting in lfg a lot. Haven't seen them in a while. This game was not originally made for multiplayer, and too many people in one area can lead to 'issues'. Issues with sentinels, with terrain returning to it's primal state. Friends can play together, but I'm not sure if there is a huge demand for cooperative town building.

[young cedar]

I see

[urban briar]

If it's your thing, go for it. Maybe you will be the one to pull it off. Everyone plays their own version of NMS. We all have our play-style.

[lean oriole]

why I want the next update to be all about QOL, fix bugs and such rather than new content.

keep adding more content then youre gonna have so many bugs that it will be impossible to catch up unless you only do QOL updates for a year.

like beginning of NMS

[livid kayak]

is there any reason to install a regular mining beam on a atlantid mt?

alongside the runic lens

[limber kayak]

How do I get a flag on my corvette like this

[hexed kindle]

it boosts the mining characteristics of the multitool alongside adjacency bonus

[safe glade]

once I leveled to the max with the guilds, do I need to continue donating to them all the time or I can just collect stuff I want? can my rank go down if I take stuff and don't donate?

[hexed kindle]

you can continue to donate to them, btu there's no added benefit

the only way your standing with a guild decreases is if you abandon a mission you took up with them

[safe glade]

good to know, I don't take missions from the space stations so that's not an issue

[limber kayak]

How do I get a flag on my corvette

[analog scroll]

Very likely a glitch build

[muted spruce]

Hi, I managed to pick up an S class freighter, my first ship of this kind. Anyway, it was going well until I added a science station, then my Korvax science officer turned up.
I did the first mission for him, then he told me to add a save Beacon.
It's not in my build menu.
I looked online and saw that someone has said the fix required deleting my first base and its save beacon. That didn't work.
I'm not sure whether I've screwed up owning a freighter or not. What would you advise?
oh, up until beaming setting up a science room, I did have another base populated with crew, that one still has a save beacon.

[arctic coral]

I have a question about obtaining a new ship xD

im a new player and i love the flying part

but i really would like a more agile ship

[urban briar]

You can upgrade ships, to get more agility. You can change from a less agile class, say hauler, to a fighter or explo ship. Different ships, in a class, will have different stats.

[shell ridge]

[urban briar]

The first ship I got, that was agile, was a royal. You can hang out at stations and wait for one to buy. You can buy maps and repair salvaged ones, too.

[arctic coral]

what maps do i buy then ?

[urban briar]

Planetary Charts: Distress Signal

[limber kayak]

What dose he mean from the service bot how do I find the service bot (sorry if I flashed banged you btw)

[shell ridge]

Emergency

[shell ridge]

Check the Pins in #nms-modding channel

[shell ridge]

In #nms-commands you can also use !Faq-BeginnerTips and !Faq-ShipSpawns for more details.

[white wagon]

🤔 What determines getting a 'supercharged' slot in something? Like on your ship/multitool? Is it just random chance or?

[urban briar]

The number is based on the class, the placement is random.

[white wagon]

ah thank you

[thick haven]

Is there supposed to be a limit to the number of pirate waves that can attack during an observatory raid quest?

Because I'm on 6 so far, and the quest is acting... kind of buggy.

In that it seems to reset every time I finish a wave.

Okay, yeah, it was a bug, nevermind. Saving and exiting to main menu and reloading set the quest to complete.

[analog scroll]

If you were in a group, that could have been why too

[thick haven]

I wasn't.

[proper parcel]

how do i get faseum from critters? have been standing round animal feeder for 10 minutes and also whats hapening to the animal products if i dont have a collecter yet just feeder

[analog scroll]

Kill them and refine mordite

[proper parcel]

oh. ok info says feed critters. they playing tricks on me

thx

[thick haven]

That's also a thing you can do, it's just much slower.

[analog scroll]

Creatures pooping is broken at the moment

[thick haven]

Oh, it is?

[bleak violet]

Is completing the atlas path worth it?

[thick haven]

...That's a very interesting bug to introduce in an update that has nothing to do with creatures.

[analog scroll]

It's required if you intend to reach purple systems

[analog scroll]

It's been broken for a couple of updates now

I expect a "Made creatures less constipated" patch note any time

[bleak violet]

So yes? I don't know what purple systems mean lol

[analog scroll]

End game (currently)

Best time to do it is during the story mission The Purge. You have enough milestones by then and the warps will count for both missions

[bleak violet]

Yeah thats what I'm currently on

It's just kinda boring warping from place to place with no set goal

[bleak violet]

By the way, I know you said to level up the guild rep but I'm not trying to farm the SFM I just need one for the matter beam
Is there a quicker way to just get one since that is all I need?

[tiny vortex]

brothers:
Is Tainted Metal good for anything more than buying some 5/10 cosmetics?
I mean.... there are contraband packets but are they good or meh????

[analog scroll]

No, it's luck

[analog scroll]

It refines into nanites

[bleak violet]

Ok thx

[thick haven]

Is there any way to get legacy ship parts other than buying ships or claiming abandoned ones then salvaging them?

[tiny vortex]

ooooh, still feels......lacking tough

[analog scroll]

People can trade them to you

[thick haven]

People meaning other players, or NPCs?

[gray shoal]

Players

[thick haven]

That's... kind of awful, isn't it?

Spending 30m units to get a chance to get the one part you want from a given ship?

Or buying distress signal charts and having a like 1/4 chance of getting a random ship?

[analog scroll]

You can extract the exact parts you see. If the ship doesn't look like it has the part you're after, it will never give it to you

[thick haven]

How so? When salvaging a ship, you get a random part from that ship, so it's like 1/4 to get the part you actually want from it. Or is there another way to strip ships of their parts?

[analog scroll]

No, you select which part you want

[tiny vortex]

you pick

[thick haven]

Oh, right, it's been a long time since I actually tried

Forgot about that.

Man, it's looking more and more like I really need to start part farming for corvettes.

[tiny vortex]

i discovered that if you like a part you wait for a C class ship, buy it for like 4kk, then scrap it for that part you want.

Unless im a noob and better ships come with rarer parts

[analog scroll]

Nope, any class will do

[thick haven]

The only part that actually matters for class is the reactor, right?

[tiny vortex]

as far as i know yes, all the other things are cosmetic

and the Type

that have bonus but i dont remember which

(fighter, solar, living, etc)

[thick haven]

Living? That's not a type I'm familiar with.

[gray shoal]

Late game content

It requires to have glyphs unlocked

[thick haven]

That explains it.

[tiny vortex]

ive seen them in the anomaly....but got no idea where

i hope there are alien like systems out there

[limber kayak]

Do yk anyone who is giving away the sentinel parts?

[analog scroll]

For corvettes? #nms-lfg-or-trades

[limber kayak]

Yes

I already asked there

No one reapplied

[analog scroll]

Keep asking (with time between). That's where to ask for in-game items

[limber kayak]

No I mean that channel is dead silent

[gray shoal]

My living ship

[thick haven]

Hm. Interesting, but probably not for me.

[tiny vortex]

you can change its colors? they look cool. shame they all look the same

[gray shoal]

Nope cant change colors.

The have wide color variety tho. So need to find the one u like

[thick haven]

I'm honestly just trying to find a halfway-decent normal ship. Right now I'm using one of the Sentinel ships, and they're probably the most useful because you can recharge them with radiant shards, but I despise the way the cockpit looks, particularly in VR.

I think I'll just keep at it with the distress signals, and hope I luck into a ship I can repair into looking good.

[nova wyvern]

I love the sentinel ships

[gray shoal]

But living ship have low parts variety and are kinda old feature so at this point they are underpowered in comparison to other ships

[gray shoal]

U can own 12 ships so plenty of space to test all ship types

[tiny vortex]

i really love Solar ships, the whole mechanism i always found amazing.....but BROTHER it bugs out a lot

[fierce coral]

Can i grab this sentient plant and plant it in my freighter

[gray shoal]

Some sentient plant give gravitino balls. There is a plantable plant that gives grav balls.

[proper parcel]

is there a preferred economy or conflict level for finding the best variety of fighters to salvage for parts?

[analog scroll]

Fighters? Vy'keen systems

[gray shoal]

Vykeen have more fighters

Gek have haulers

Korvax have more explorers

[proper parcel]

right, i knew that part but i figured that a rich economy and higher conflict might matter some

[river canyon]

Not if you are just after parts, economy tier will affect class spawn rate

Nothing to do with models though

[proper parcel]

ok thanks

[thick haven]

In that regard, lower economy class is probably better because you can buy the ships cheaper and they'll give the same parts, then?

Because they're more likely to be c class?

[river canyon]

Sure, more cheap ships in low tier and no S (besides the exotic)

[proper parcel]

mmk mabey mabey. glad i asked. i was gonna pay out the nose

thx

[warped cape]

guys i was fighting some bots and they dropped this, i wanted the material and now i cant craft it again. pls tell me it wasnt something valuable

https://medal.tv/games/no-mans-sky/clips/ml19yTzgmrMMICFbM?invite=cr-MSw2dEQsNDQyNTMwMzAw

[thick haven]

That's just a generic upgrade.

Don't worry about it.

[stuck berry]

It's an upgrade for the plasma launcher, you can buy much better ones aboard space stations

We can craft upgrade modules, we can only find or buy them

[thick haven]

As far as I'm aware there is nothing in the game that's one-time-only.

Except for quest items and expedition rewards.

And the game should tell you if you accidentally get rid of a quest item, and tell you how to get it back.

[limber kayak]

Dose anyone have the sentinel parts

The rest of the sever is dead

[fierce coral]

interesting

[thick haven]

The agricultural quest chain from the base building line of quests will walk you through all the various plants you can craft.

Though you can just ignore it if you want to buy the blueprints from the anomaly.

You get them for free from the quests, though.

[stuck berry]

Define "sentinel parts"

[limber kayak]

All of the corvette sentinel parts

From the pas expadison

[thick haven]

Are you on PC? If so, there's a mod that unlocks all expedition rewards in the quicksilver shop.

[limber kayak]

Nope

Xbox

[stuck berry]

Oh, you mean the Aeron corvette modules?

Those are Atlas themed, not sentinel

[limber kayak]

I still want em

And wasn’t sentinels atlases workers anyways

They arnt any more

[shrewd steppe]

@stuck berry and @analog scroll thanks for the help I got it fixed it was just a Internet thing I switched internets and it magically started working

[thick haven]

Can't you briefly change the game to creative mode and just spawn them in?
