but i need a harmonic brain

[wet sigil]

So the interceptor should have nothing left in there except for the prompt asking you to repair the interface, right?

If you have done it correctly, the hyaline brain should be highlighted in your inventory, interacting with that brain should put an alien ruin marker on your HUD

Which looks exactly like the dissonant spike icon

<:nmsatlas:972222451801010207> Locating and Claiming Interceptors

Interceptors may only be found and claimed in Dissonant systems. The system cannot be Uncharted, and the planet cannot be a Dead biome or Weird biome.

Locating:

Fighting Waves of Sentinels »

Harmonic Camps »

Nexus Missions »

Other Methods:
Any Nexus Missions or Frigate Combat Expeditions have a chance to reward the Carrier AI Fragment used to find an Interceptor.
Random Space Encounter - when pulsing and then receiving the notification of an encounter, drop out of pulse and use your ship communicator to answer the call. You should be directed to a suitable planet with Interceptors.

Claiming:

Claiming an Interceptor »

Sentinel Pillars will shut down the Corrupted Sentinels and leave the Dissonance Resonators, if needed.

[tropic ginkgo]

follow steps above

[bleak ruin]

i got it ty another thing is how to i get crystalized hearts

[wet sigil]

Iirc off the corrupted sentinels

One of the bigger quadpeds should drop it

[urban citrus]

Do the ships at the space station stay tiny if I buy them?

[bleak ruin]

ALL THAT FOR A BOOTY ASS C CLASS

BRO

[wet sigil]

Interceptor scraps for a lot of units

[left bobcat]

where tf do i find s class hyperspace modules?

[wet sigil]

Space stations, if a space station don't have warp drive upgrades, try the next one

Once you find one, you can save and reload on the same station to force a restock

[left bobcat]

so far ive only found up to a class but it was better than my x class

[tropic ginkgo]

finding a C class interceptor is very common

[wet sigil]

Just keep trying, they will eventually show up

[tropic ginkgo]

X class can roll higher than S but worse than C

[left bobcat]

OMG I FOUND ONE

[bleak ruin]

i still dont understand where and how u scrap them

[left bobcat]

ik. i just didnt know how midling mine were. +200 ly sounded amazing till i found an a class with +200 ly AND 100 percent extra efficiency

[wet sigil]

Space station, at the back, left of the central terminal

[bleak ruin]

how do i store my ship

??

[tropic ginkgo]

you also don't really need more than the base few hundred Ly range unless you're going for core jumps
at which point it might be faster to do black holes

[wet sigil]

If you have 12 active ships already, then you need a freighter, if you don't have 12 yet, any ship you claim goes into one of those 1w slot

[bleak ruin]

ugly as ship

[bleak ruin]

i have 1 ship this is my second

[wet sigil]

Oo that's a flea interceptor

[wet sigil]

If you pick that up, then your current active ship will go inactive

[bleak ruin]

so can i use my main ship go to a space station and just spawn the interceptor in or do i have to do other stuff

[wet sigil]

You can spawn any of your ship anywhere, but the space station is the easiest

But you need to claim the interceptor first before leaving

[bleak ruin]

so it auto stores once i claim it as mine

[wet sigil]

Yes

[hot nacelle]

Hey folks. I’m a few days into the game and enjoying it. Just wondering about something I’ve come across. I just started messing with settlements.

The building (automated warehouse) just hit B and I saw that little fireworks thing. But I can’t seem to advance. There’s no timer on any building and no pending decisions. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

[wet sigil]

Just be ware of the 12 shop limit, once you hit that limit, and you claim a new ship, it will be replaced with your active ship

[bleak ruin]

what if that happens

is it gone forever

?

[wet sigil]

The active ship? Yes, in most cases

So just be careful

[bleak ruin]

HELL NO

[proper lodge]

If you exchanged ships with npc you can talk to him again quickly and buy your ship back

[tropic ginkgo]

have to wait for settlement events but you should be able to upgrade buildings at any point

[bleak ruin]

man are there chances on what type of interceptor rank u can get

becuase c class is ass

[wet sigil]

Yes, they obey the system spawn rates

[hot nacelle]

But I have no other constructions going.

[bleak ruin]

what is it

system spawn rates

/??

[tropic ginkgo]

if you are 100% sure, relog

[hot nacelle]

Yeah 100%. I did but came back to the same thing.

[bleak ruin]

dam

what do u think is the best economy for C+

[wet sigil]

My personal experience is that getting a natural s rank interceptor takes way way more time than to get the 85k nanites required to upgrade a c class to an s

[bleak ruin]

u can upgrade

so much things i dont know about this game

[tropic ginkgo]

the table says the spawn chances for classes pretty clearly based on economy

[wet sigil]

Apparently s ranks from outlaw system has slightly nerved stats, so the min maxers look for naturally spawn S in t3 economy stars

[bleak ruin]

k

[wet sigil]

But yes, ships can be upgraded with nanites, at the same terminal as the one that scraps ships

[languid pond]

since i stopped playing late 2023 i know they added new space stations, new race, new staff tool and corvettes - was there something else big since then?

oh and you don't need to hunt specific spaceships anymore u can just build anything you like??

[frail turret]

You can either build corvettes, but you have to hunt down corvette parts
or
You can craft starships, but you have to dismantle starships you find to get the components you will need (no way to craft starship components out of materials yet)
At the end of the day, you still have to go hunting for either of them...

[tropic ginkgo]

"gas giants", new tier of system (purple), waterworlds with deep oceans (not a lot going on there sadly)

[raven dune]

Bit of an odd question but is there anyway to take a solar system of a person that discovered it 3 years ago the name is MisFit Anders

[cursive roost]

I'm trying to get a radiant hear staff through coordinates someone on reddit gave but don't I need a specific head for that or will just any radiant head from anywhere do ?

[wheat cove]

There's only one "Radiant" head, which is the Radiant Heart. There are 7 heads in total. Only the head part matters for class and sc slot locations.

[cursive roost]

I see, one of the guides I read said where you get the radiant head from matters

[wheat cove]

What do you mean by "take"?

[stuck berry]

We cannot overwrite the discoveries of other players

[thin canyon]

why is my corvette melting

no better inside

[stuck berry]

Outdated mods

lighting parts of scene files were redone in 6.20 to use 1/1,000th the values or whatever, so outdated ones are 1,000 times brighter than intended

[thin canyon]

gotta take some more pictures tho, looks magnificent in space

[severe crown]

An "off planet" marker appeared out of nowhere and points...nowhere? I did not pick up any new missions as far as I know and I can't find it linked to any current missions. Any idea what this is? Just a weird bug?

[stuck berry]

Bug, caused by the space anomaly usually

!hg

[tulip dust]

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

[stuck berry]

it leads to nothing, it can be ignored

[frigid wadi]

Thats a settlement marker, normally given by NPC's or clicking on a waypoint. It literallly marks a small settlement on another world

[stuck berry]

It's the result of a bug, the waypoint is in the middle of space

it appearing is not caused by any normal player actions like speaking to NPCs or using charts

[severe crown]

Thanks. I am glad I asked and did not just use up my fuel trying to see what it could be. 😁

[proper lodge]

should i scrap my old sentinel ship or keep it?

what is this?

[valid dragon]

I somehow managed to anger the sentinels. I am very early on in the game. How am I supposed to deal with them?

[raven dune]

Okie thank you sorry for the odd question

[raven dune]

I just dig a hole in the ground and wait for them to stop

[valid dragon]

I'll try that. How long should it take?

[white wagon]

Once they lose sight of you it'll give you a timer in the top right.

[valid dragon]

Interesting. I don't see a timer. I'm in a hole

[white wagon]

It'll say like 'SEntinels searching' under the wanted bar.

[proper lodge]

go inside your base or dig underground using terrain manipulator

[severe crown]

Probably depends on the ship. I've been scrapping my old ones if the new is better. they are worth quite a bit and, unless I particularly like the look of both ships, I'm not sure there is a reason to keep them around.

[proper lodge]

also you can kill them from that hole since they can't attack you while you in it except the dog sentinel

but it will be very long without boltcaster

also after killing giant sentinel it will show you their "base" which will turn off every sentinel on that planet

[severe crown]

That will find a harmonic camp if one exists in the current system. There you will find a multi-tool and can locate more crashed sentinel ships.

[last gust]

will the terain that i have flattened regenerate inside my base?

[valid dragon]

welp I was in my ship. I landed. dug a hole. now I have a little tunnel as low as I can go

still no timer tor anything. it just says they are deployed

[gray shoal]

Reloading autosave resets wanted lvl

[proper lodge]

alright thanks

how do i reach centre of the galaxy?

in "the purge" quest

[gray shoal]

Just jump . Quest will get u there

[inland ermine]

Okay, so I know there is a method to finding a pirate freighter of S-class where you just jump in and out of the same system with space combat in it. But, if the space conbat is not civvies vs freighter but civvies vs fighters, if I use that method, can it spawn a freighter instead?

[proper lodge]

alright thanks

[proper lodge]

what

[inland ermine]

Let me put this out.

I want a pirate Freighter, S-Class.

To find it, I'm jumping pirate-controlled systems and waiting for space combat event to pop in.

The usual method is to jump out of the system after defeating the pirate freighter and landing on it but not claiming it if it does not meet your satisfaction, because then jumping back into the system will spawn a new one, completely randomized again, including the class.

I am wondering whether I can use this method to make a Pirate Freighter spawn out of combat where there initially were only pirate fighters.

[echo imp]

I am in search of Lithium. I have tried to refine it using this recipe that I found on-line but it doesn't produce Lithium. Did the recipe change?

Lithium can be refined using a Refiner with the following ingredients:
Crystallised Helium ×1 + Quartzite ×1 → Lithium ×1 ("Environmental Element Transfer", 0.36 sec./unit output)
Crystallised Helium ×1 + Activated Quartzite ×1 → Lithium ×2 ("Environmental Element Transfer", 0.18 sec./unit output)

[proper lodge]

pirate freighter can only spawn in combat with another freighter

you cannot find it like normal freighter

[inland ermine]

I know. But my question is: can reloading the space combat event via jump out-jump in method spawn a pirate freighter in combat instead of pirate fighters in combat

[proper lodge]

also theres a way to do it way faster and without using resources, make a save in another system, warp into the pirate system, complete battle, if freighter isn't class you want just reload the save

[proper lodge]

oh you mean fighters, you need to be in pirate system for freighter

theres a chance to encounter pirate freighter in normal system too but low and chances for S class way lower

[inland ermine]

sigh

I am.

In a pirate system.

Jumping between pirate systems specifically.

And I cannot get a pirate freighter to spawn, only fighters harassing civilian ones.

[proper lodge]

bad pirate system then, try new, also you can ask someone for glyphs for system where pirate freighter will 100% spawn

oh wait, you have freighter?

[inland ermine]

My own, no

[proper lodge]

ah

thats the problem

[inland ermine]

Don't tell me I actually need one

Lmao

Well then

[potent coral]

Yup

[inland ermine]

stoopid

[potent coral]

The grind to S class is long

Im on a B class

Also make sure you warp to the system with the race you want!

[inland ermine]

On my last save I got a S-Class pirate in about 30h tops

3-4 combat reloads is all it took

[potent coral]

(Im trying to stick to Korvax systems)

[inland ermine]

ayyyyyy my man

[potent coral]

Wait you last save?

[tropic ginkgo]

it's supposed to, unless there's some bug or interaction I'm not aware of if you haven't located it naturally or you don't have access to purple systems yet

[inland ermine]

I played on Gamepass version before

PLayed for about 100-150h

[potent coral]

Oh (Im on Switch)

[inland ermine]

And then stopped around the time expedition with Iron Vulture came out

[potent coral]

Okay Im new, Iron Vulture?

[inland ermine]

And can't retrieve that save to my current Steam gameplay since 1: Xbox doesn't transfer to steam, 2: Nvidia Cloud and 3: I like my current one more.

[inland ermine]

Expedition... 16? 15?

Somewhere like that

[potent coral]

Crossplay exists, surely you could restore it?

[echo imp]

I have not found it naturally. Where do I find it in the wild blue yonder?

[inland ermine]

It was when they added fighter building

[inland ermine]

I mean I have no way to access savefiles

[potent coral]

Oh my first Expedition was 21

[inland ermine]

One of two main downsides of nvidia cloud

[potent coral]

Ah, not even on the original console?

[inland ermine]

Second one being no workshop allowed

[inland ermine]

PC Gamepass

Never had a console

[potent coral]

Okay, I have no idea how to fix that

[tropic ginkgo]

waterworlds in purple systems

[inland ermine]

Main issue here is I have no way to access these files anyways because I played it on Nvidia Cloud. This means I have no rights of accessing gamefiles and their directories.

[potent coral]

Dang

[inland ermine]

Small price for RTX 5090

[potent coral]

Well, at least you hopefully got you prior expedition rewards? As you can get them from Quincy even if you didn’t do it on that save file as long as it’s the same account

[echo imp]

I have heard that and have travelled to those systems but have not been able to locate it. does the planet have to be a water planet?

[potent coral]

(Quincy= Quicksilver Synthesis Companion)

[inland ermine]

Never did any expeditions lmao

[potent coral]

Oh

[inland ermine]

I started my current save by doing the expedition

[vital estuary]

Yeah lithium is only naturally found on waterworlds, they can be a bit tricky to find but you will see the lithium on the resource list.

[inland ermine]

Walked out with a corvette, 200m units and 5k nanites

[potent coral]

Okay so you got the Heirloom armour?

[inland ermine]

And AtlasPassv3

[potent coral]

OH MY GOD

[inland ermine]

All rewards

[potent coral]

Good

[inland ermine]

Took me like 4h to max it out

[potent coral]

How’d you get a Corvette from Remnant????

[inland ermine]

Not directly from it

But built it right after

[potent coral]

Oh just from the money?

[inland ermine]

I found a crapton of parts in the system

[potent coral]

My sister doesn’t like her corvette apparently

[echo imp]

I have found systems that say water but I have not found a water planet yet. is there another tell tail?

[inland ermine]

I'm currently flying a placeholder since I have my eyes set on a bigger fish

[potent coral]

Funfact yiu can go back there with a particular portal (I have a unuploaded base there)

[potent coral]

Oh?

[inland ermine]

I just can't decide which one to build

Darkwater's Galleon or Phoenix's Phantom Blade

Yes, I like retro games and their space pirates

[potent coral]

Send me a picture of ‘em and I might be able to help if you want

[potent coral]

Im to young to know those games ngl

[inland ermine]

Now comes the hard part: there is NO PICTURES of Darkwater's galleon except for some obscure Minecraft build from years ago.

[potent coral]

How is there no pics of it?

[vital estuary]

Has to be a purple star system, and won't be listed on the system tag, cant be in a system that says gas giant and won't be in one with a giant planet either as far as I can tell, so when you select a system look for one that has a normal looking solar system.
Purple stars have the X and Y codes.

[inland ermine]

2008 PS3 exclusive game

Strictly exclusive

[potent coral]

I can work with an obscure Minecraft image

[echo imp]

Thanks. I will try that.

[inland ermine]

Pics of various angles is all there is

This and my still working PS3 that I hope to use as main source.

On the other hand, Phantom blade even has its own fandom page

[vital estuary]

So the crystallized helium and activated quartzite didn't make the lithium for you?
Should if you unlocked purples and went to a gas giant already.

[potent coral]

Okay and the Phantom Blade?

[stoic oak]

Guys before starting the expedition I put some itemsn I want to use and need in the expedition but its not on my character, how do I get it?

[potent coral]

You can’t in Remnant

Your ship is disabled till phase 4

[stoic oak]

Im doing breach expedition

[potent coral]

Okay how

Are you doin Breach

[inland ermine]

https://jakanddaxter.fandom.com/wiki/Phantom_Blade

This... and a PSP exclusive

[stoic oak]

the method to do previous expedition method where I put the game offline and change game session time to breach

[potent coral]

I know nothing of breach, BUT it should be in the space anomaly

[stoic oak]

Can't summon it and don't see it :>

[potent coral]

Dark water Galleon you should build

[potent coral]

Hrm, okay

Just keep playin’ I guess till you can?

[vital estuary]

The items should be at expedition terminal at the anomaly, normally have to warp once before being able to summon it.

[stoic oak]

aa i see

lemme warp once ig

[potent coral]

Or that, can you tell it’s my first time playing an expedition (21 on Switch 1)

[vital estuary]

This expedition is definitely different than most since we were locked to the one planet.

[inland ermine]

Also, guess what @potent coral @proper lodge

I took the freighter I saved.

I made a jump to the next pirate system.

IMMEDIATELY. Pirate freighter.

[potent coral]

My sister played 12 as it was the free demo

[potent coral]

Yup! Your 5 jump every 3 hours (total over as many sessions as you want) spawns a Dreadnought

[vital estuary]

Certain outlaw and level 3 conflict systems also will always spawn the dreadnaught fight if you warp into them with a ship. Chances are 20 and 10% respectively.
So must have either found one or had the other conditions ripe for it.

[potent coral]

Oh?

[vital estuary]

Find 2 that always spawn it and you can just warp back and forth...
Either faster way to get an S class dread or capital freighter, or destroy the dreadnaught fast enough and get S class upgrade modules for freighters.

[potent coral]

Honestly the five jump system hasn’t been to bad for me (but if someone has a portal code for Euclid/Eissentam I’ll take it8

[inland ermine]

About the drives btw...

If I upgrade to Indium, do I still need Emeril/Cadmium installed?

Or is it all-in-one?

[frail turret]

no you don't

and it's the same for both the freighter and the starship
iirc the only one you need extra is the one for the purple systems

[proper lodge]

do i need to craft all the spheres all over again to craft heart of the sun?

what do i do now?

or should i reset the atlas?\

[vital estuary]

Even the one for purple systems replaces the earlier drives.
The early ones do add a little to the warp range, easier to keep them in on a freighter than a regular starship since you might be running out of tech space.

[inland ermine]

On topic of tech-space...

Why tf can't I remove photon cannon from my corvette

[vital estuary]

Supposed to hang onto the orbs and then craft the item.

[proper lodge]

well after i completed atlas path and started atlas eternal my orb just disappeared

[vital estuary]

It won't let us unfortunately.

[hushed saffron]

There is one mod that fixes the photon cannon, though

[vital estuary]

So you don't have remembrance in a tech slot in your exosuit?

[proper lodge]

why would i if i don't have heart of the sun?

[vital estuary]

Been a while since I did that quest but it shouldn't have totally removed it, unless it is now asking you to do something.

[proper lodge]

well, all 3 primary missions now don't make me do anything

nvm

atlas wants wonders in atlas eternal

but other 2 is "enjoy reality while it lasts" and "enjoy the galaxy"

[vital estuary]

I can't remember what I did exactly but I might have discarded something and had to make the orbs again to get the tech.
It adds a core health point and allows access to certain lore terminals, technically can live without it but can be useful.
It isn't the end of the world if you end up re-crafting the orbs.

[tropic ginkgo]

that means you're done with story missions

[livid kayak]

It looks like the Steam Overaly screen capture (F12) is bugged now. It only works occasionaly, or after the game restart

[vital estuary]

It was working fine a couple days ago, wasn't on last night though.

Ive had it be really sluggish or not take screenshots before but restarting usually did the trick.

[dire iris]

Do you know if the developers are working on or planning to improve the VR mode? Like OpenXR compatibility and improving menu and system interaction to make it more compatible with current VR? I ask because there are many good mechanics they could take inspiration from in the Star Wars Tales game MetaQuest.

[vital estuary]

Not sure if they are, they don't say what is coming for updates until right before one hits.

[near matrix]

Ok so assume I ask this here. Can I change the colour of my first space ship?
(Also noticing a lack of pink. Please tell me this appears in rewards or something. Yes I am a girly girl gamer)

[livid kayak]

The Radiant Pillar BC1? Unfortunately no. You can only change the color of the ships that you've constructed yourself

[versed vector]

What do you guys think looks better on a black ship? Stealth or ironclad paint?

[livid kayak]

And yeah, you can color your ships pink when you construct them with a Ship Fabricator or when you make a Corvette

[near matrix]

Sad times

[near matrix]

Ok so at least I can look forward to this 🤪

[near matrix]

Going to be a long time, mind. I’ve no clue what I’m doing 😂

[livid kayak]

Don't worry, enjoy the game at your own pace. It's a lot to take in at first. If you're new to the game, i'll just recommand to disable the multiplayer.
The game is very buggy at the moment, and MP just makes it worse

[livid kayak]

i'd say it depends on the overall project and your general taste. The importat thing to note is that it's your ship, so make it as you like. It doesn't even matter what's percieved as "better"

[versed vector]

Yeah I’m currently building a pelican from halo at the moment but I think I’m going to go for the stealth paint for more of a military look. The ironclad is more ‘black’ but it makes the ship look worn out I think

[still oasis]

Animals not producing faceum on psvr2

[livid kayak]

I'm not sure, but i guess they should. Are you feeding them?

[vital estuary]

Bugged at the moment

Yes

Thanks

[main stone]

Anyone know about ship fabricated (assembling a ship from parts and a reactor? ^^

[gray shoal]

No tool.

[slender raven]

yeah I know a decent amount, unfortunately, afaik, the SC slots is based on the space station, and even if you use an S class reactor, you may not see all of them visible before you confirm & add slots to reveal enough of them, so it's kinda guess & check at best

[gray shoal]

Space station and parts u use

[slender raven]

I swear the parts used (besides reactor to be the class and therefore how many SC slots) don't effect SC slot positions but fair enough

[gray shoal]

So best is to jump around with parts that u like and check the sc slots

[near matrix]

Can’t do this as I’m playing my my Besty.

[main stone]

Ok thanks, i didn't know it was by station but that explains why the ship I'm trying to make doesn't match one online

⚠️ No Man's Sky - Doing Quests in a group

Playing in a group can cause one or more players to experience issues or bugs when progressing quests, such as the main Storyline. Some of these issues are listed below.

• Waypoints not appearing on the HUD;
• Waypoints moving or jumping planets when you get close;
• Destinations being thousands of lightyears away;
• Quest destinations fail to provide the correct dialogs for the current stage;
• Primary ship getting accidentally reskinned to a different ship;
• Getting trapped on the other side of a portal;
• Getting trapped in a star system without access to both an hyperdrive or a teleporter/Space Station.

Some of the above issues can be difficult or even impossible to fix with just in game steps. Already having access to the Space Anomaly can help in some cases, but it's generally best to ignore quest progression when playing in a group.

📖 Did you know? Also known as The Artemis Path, the main Storyline was implemented before Multiplayer came to be a thing. It is intended to be run solo.

[tame bane]

Has anyone noticed the languages of pao achievement not triggering on steam

[vital estuary]

Some missions do bug when playing multi-player, just a heads up.

[maiden junco]

I have finally finished the expedition. I love the idea of the truck but the mechanics...
Anyway, just to get a clear understanding: returning scrap only provides (some) nanites, nothing fancy otherwise this gameplay provides? didn't feel like it was a lot of nanites, so building a highway for nanite farming seems not worht it.
Or do i miss something?

[inland ermine]

Scrap as in basic scrap, such as rusted boxes is only nanites

[analog scroll]

It unlocks the rest of the colossus parts outside of the expedition

[inland ermine]

Shinier scrap can yield resources

And special scrap, of the 3 special types, yields stuff like uranium, phosphorus etc and even more rare stuff if you recycled bigger pieces

[maiden junco]

Ok, i did see some resources pop up. tbh i did just run the exoedition with a guide to be able to focus on that awful driving 😄
But in terms of time value, most stuff you can get easier i guess, right?

[inland ermine]

Some, yes

[vital estuary]

50 each of the 3 special types is needed to unlock certain things, and do have to haul it to the processing plant and put in the proper disposal unit for it to count.

[inland ermine]

Best thing I managed to get on the planet is Emeril, this stuff ain't too rare but having it right away is nice as a beginner

Atlaspass v3 and indium hyperdrives specifically

[maiden junco]

Oh yeah that is quite helpful early on

[vital estuary]

The good news is once you unlock the stuff on one save it is available to other saves on that same account.
(Colossus customization bits.)

[inland ermine]

LET'S GOOOOOO

Took me only 3 hours and 3 hypercores

Also, Korvax crew :3

Now, we can play the game.

[near matrix]

Ok quick question. My besty and I are at the same place in the game. We’re both at the anomaly and we’re in a group. But we can’t see each other. Is this because we’re still doing the quest on it?

[analog scroll]

It's because the Anomaly is instanced and you're not in the same instance. The game will try to put you in the same Anomaly instance, but it's not always going to be able to do so

[near matrix]

How can we meet up here then?

[analog scroll]

Keep trying, or meet somewhere else.

You also need to keep this in mind when doing the story in a group #nms-questions message

[near matrix]

By trying do we have to do something like leave and come back?

[random jewel]

achievements can be delayed

[near matrix]

And yep. I’ve read this bit. Thank you 🙂

[analog scroll]

That's one way, sure

[errant cloud]

Hi guys how the first wave exotic work ?

[severe crown]

By luck, magic, and the power of superstitious thinking as far as I can tell 😆

It's an exotic that lands in the first wave of ships either at a space station or trade post. Here's the thing, though, the "waves" change all the time. Unless someone found one since the last patch, it won't be accurate (likely), but exotic models spawn in every single populated star system, they're just rare (1 in 301 spawns)

[errant cloud]

thx for your answer

[gleaming tusk]

can you increase the value of a found ship by fixing it?

[hazy berry]

those "collect x amount of y material" quest. can you justt pull the material from your storage

[outer tree]

is it possible to add the ships you want to your squadron? Also do the ship upgrades installed count towards their damage?

[gleaming tusk]

it worked for me with the faecium one

[hazy berry]

1. yes
2. dont know, sorry

[analog scroll]

Only by fixing the cargo slots, and you have to decide for yourself if that's worth it

[gleaming tusk]

equip slots dont count?

or

[analog scroll]

Yes you can add the ships you want, no the upgrades are not used at all

[analog scroll]

They do not add to the value of the ship

[gleaming tusk]

hmmmm oddly specific, thank you. what's the approx added value, if you know? sorry to be asking sm specifics, i couldnt find this info on my own

[near matrix]

I want a ship I can take my Besty in but I don’t know where and when I can start. Any heads up welcomed

[analog scroll]

Varies based on ship class and type

[gleaming tusk]

like MP ships? that could be the corvette

[gleaming tusk]

makes sense, thanks

[analog scroll]

Corvettes are the only ships like that

[near matrix]

How do I even start to make a ship? I found the corvette station thingy. But it looks so complex

[analog scroll]

You purchase parts and put them together

[gleaming tusk]

as for where to start, any space station has the means to build a corvette, itll be piece by piece. you can find the pieces on planets, you can buy them at the console in space stations, or you can trade for them

[left bobcat]

How do I find my save files on PC? I want to back it up so I can use it forever

[analog scroll]

Or you find parts and put them together. They're definitely not intended to be early game content, though

[analog scroll]

!faq-savefiles in #nms-commands

[outer tree]

How exactly do i do that? I just built an S fighter id like to add to my squad

[gleaming tusk]

if you can get about 4 mill or so it's enough to make a pretty decent corvette

[outer tree]

I assume the tier is the most important? S would be in class

[analog scroll]

Trade it to an NPC, hire the NPC. Class of the ship will not stay S, none of the upgrades will be used at all. Only the ship looks are counted for squadron ships. The pilot stats are what is important

[hot nacelle]

Anybody have any idea how I can get this quest unstuck or quit? I’ve done everything I can think of and I still can’t move forward. My settlement is stuck.

[analog scroll]

What quest?

[hot nacelle]

Maseongs Eve. Settlement. Stuck on second building. Can’t do anything.

[swift sand]

missing terminal?

[hot nacelle]

Terminal is there, no timer.

No progress

[swift sand]

hmm - when you interact with the terminal, what do you see? would you post a screenshot of that screen?

[hot nacelle]

Sure

[hazy berry]

uhhhhhhh

how did that end here

[outer tree]

ok so a C class is fine? Just find S pilots? good thing i asked lol

i was planning on building S class ships

[analog scroll]

The pilots can be upgraded

It doesn't make them any less likely to get in your way, though

[swift sand]

someone's pet?

[hazy berry]

seems like it, tho arent those non tamable

or should not be in the anomanoky

[swift sand]

i think it might have been modded in

once i saw someone say that the game would somehow glitch an egg when ran through the sequencer and it would come out like this, though they werent clear about how to do it

[hazy berry]

wasnt it possible to make nipnip "bread"

i remember seeing command about it

[swift sand]

try sugar dough?

[hazy berry]

how was that made

just sugar?

[swift sand]

flour+sugar yeah

[hot nacelle]

So I just started this earlier. As soon as this building hit B, that's when the trouble started. I have the mats but can't do anything.

[swift sand]

if it's what i'm thinking, yeah, this happens sometimes but ime usually is just a little hickup, can be dealt with. ok so image on the right shows "another building requires attention". walk around the settlement/use photo mode, look for a building that's not marked by the settlement mission, but has either a red or a green hologram above its terminal.

[hot nacelle]

Will do. Checking...

[hazy berry]

anyone know which of the nutrient processors is the safest? the freighter one, corvette one or the portable base one

[hot nacelle]

Nothing. Only 2 building have anything above them and it’s the overseer and this building

[livid kayak]

Portable was usually the safest in general

[swift sand]

when you interact with the overseers terminal, what do you see?

[livid kayak]

at least from my experience

[swift sand]

i would say that they're all pretty safe, as long as you dont really move far away enough for the game to despawn/cull them

that said, i do tend to use portable a lot more than the others

[hot nacelle]

Same, no upgrade available. And inside there are no pending decisions

[livid kayak]

i still remember the exoskiff grill bug, that could have resulted in a damaged save file

[swift sand]

not that i doubt you looked, but sometimes a 2nd pair of eyes helps. would you mind, if possible, to voice chat and stream your game?

[hot nacelle]

Sure

[swift sand]

yeah, never really use that, but of the few times i did, i was lucky

[swift sand]

please dm

[livid kayak]

Yes, i was luck aswell, but it almost got me. I've had a backup save, but it was a relatively old one 🙂

[hazy berry]

are the sentinels supposed to violate your privacy like this

[near matrix]

So I purchased my first weapon and I didn’t trade in my old multitool. How do I access my multitool? I can only see the new one

[livid kayak]

They can glitch through walls sometimes, but they usually don't attack you then

[livid kayak]

Quick menu

[near matrix]

I’m in the menu. I can’t see it

[analog scroll]

Quick Menu > Utilities > Swap multi tool

[livid kayak]

the gear icon

[near matrix]

I don’t see a gear icon

[livid kayak]

are you sure you're in the quick menu, and not the main menu?>

press x if on a pc

[near matrix]

I don’t know. I’m brand new to this game. I’m on a steam deck.

[gray shoal]

Down on d pad

[near matrix]

So I’m using ps controller whilst it’s docked

[near matrix]

Thank you 🙂

[paper yew]

Is there a way to ranch animals at a base? They seem to de-spawn as soon as you move any distance away.

[analog scroll]

They do. If you want to keep them around, stay put

[hazy berry]

do animals always spawn at the same spot

[analog scroll]

They always spawn around you

[hazy berry]

if you find them there firts time will you find them again there

[analog scroll]

They will never spawn if you're not also in the area

[paper yew]

Is there a way to get a feeder/milker without dropping down a base?

[analog scroll]

No

Well, you can feed/milk manually, but if you want it automated you need a base

[near matrix]

My multitool now looks like a fishing rod in the menu… 😶 will It still do all the other stuff? I’m at the anomaly atm so I haven’t tried anywhere to change it 🤣

[hazy berry]

thats cause you have the fishing rod as active module

[shrewd jolt]

Same happens with the grav gun

[near matrix]

And how does a noob like me change this 🤪

[hazy berry]

depends on the platform, just cycle your multitool modules

[shrewd jolt]

On keyboard its G

[hazy berry]

on pc its defaulted to g

[shrewd jolt]

To swap your multitool mode

[near matrix]

I’m telling you. My brain hurts today. It’s like information overhaul. I’m on a ps5 controller with a steam deck btw

[shrewd jolt]

Oh it should be in control bindings in settings
I havent played with controller so idk

[pseudo crypt]

I believe it’s Y on controller

But you may not be able to change it in the anomaly

[near matrix]

Yeah. I think that’s the issue. I’ll change it when I get back off the school run 😂

[pseudo crypt]

NMS is totally information overhaul. The game tells you so much and also sometimes it feels like it tells you nothing. It’s sooo discover as you go

[near matrix]

I’m realising this completely. I feel like I’ve learnt so much yet haven’t any clue still. But still I’m finding it fun. My friends husband dragged us both on it and to be fair we’ve got hooked already

[pseudo crypt]

It took me a minute to get into it but once I got the hang of things I was hooked. I’m at over 150 hours after a few months of playing and I’m still constantly like you can do what??

[shrewd jolt]

I picked it up first when I got my vr headset and yeah super overwhelmed to say the least, I stopped playing fast lol
Got back into it in mostly flat-screen when corvettes came out and havent stopped playing since

[pseudo crypt]

It’s been like 3 days since I played and I think that’s the longest stretch I’ve gone not playing since early January lol

[shrewd jolt]

Ill usually at least log in to harvest stuff

[paper yew]

I'm struggling to know which mission is in what location. The Galaxy map just seems to show a generic task description, but if I have a few dozen quests it can be painful to have to activate each mission to see if it's in that system.

[analog scroll]

Follow the main story, do side missions later. When you get them, secondary missions will always be marked and always be within 100-150 ly of the system you start them in

[sudden apex]

Use h on pc

[analog scroll]

Or d-pad L on controller to cycle tooltips

[proper lodge]

It usually creates path to mission target so just look around, also you can use teleport on space station and check where you can teleport since if location close to mission it will say that

[outer tree]

I read differently this morning? Has it been confirmed ship class has no impact

[analog scroll]

It's not stored in the game files

Very much confirmed

Pilot stats are the only stats that are stored

[outer tree]

A built class S and exotics should stay S I think when they use them?

Ok Thks

[gleaming yarrow]

i'm trying to fund a quadrupede sentinel arm
any tips on where to find one?

[wheat cove]

Start fighting sentinels, they appear at alert level 3 (3 blobs on the "wanted" meter)

[outer tree]

You can also upgrade the pilot of he isn’t S? I haven’t recruited any yet 😂

[analog scroll]

Yes, with nanites, on the fleet management screen on your freighter (same place you unlock squadron slots)

[gleaming yarrow]

can i take them down directly with my ship?

[wheat cove]

I never tried, to be honest

I've always fought them on foot

[gleaming yarrow]

oh
i'll find out then

[lost raptor]

Where can I learn more about the Ancient Auctioneer What is the Significance of the building it is in?

[outer tree]

Thks for the info. Saved me a lot of time and nanites building S class ships for them

[wheat cove]

That's a lore entry at a Celestial Archive building. The archives exist for all 3 races and give little lore snippets.

It's giving you a hint about the history of the gek and korvax races

[gleaming yarrow]

is there a way to engage a fight with sentinels in a planet that's supposed to doesn't have them?
i thought about shooting at suspicious buildings but i don't know if this is going to work

i mean the doors of them

[lost raptor]

Why is it behind a red boundary/shield ? Do you know?

[wheat cove]

Only the specific race it belongs to are meant to go in there and interact with it. I suspect the barrier is meant to keep the other two out, but I don't know for certain.

[raven matrix]

in your guys opinion, what is the most dangerous type of planet to live on?
I was thinking something like this
since it has extreme weather and a lot of hostiles like those worms and aggressive sentinels

[outer tree]

Maybe a gas giant? I don’t know much about them but the ones I’ve landed on have been pretty rough

[potent coral]

Why can’t I see my sister’s base? She’s uploaded it to the servers, we’re on the same planet (she can see my base, Im on switch 1 she’s on switch 2 (with th switch 2 edition upgrade pack downloaded)

[analog scroll]

When did she upload it?

[gleaming yarrow]

does your game crashes when entering the anomaly? (because i play on switch 2 too and i can't stay more than one minute in the anomaly)

[swift sand]

also, is the connection to ods active? @potent coral

[gleaming yarrow]

taking projects for my base is like a speedrun

[potent coral]

A few mins ago

[analog scroll]

Needs ~24 hours to get through ODS to everyone else

[potent coral]

On switch 1, no Ive never crashed in the anomaly, nor has my sister to my knowledge

[potent coral]

OH okay tyyyy

[gleaming yarrow]

then what's wrong with mine?!

[potent coral]

Wait, my base only just got built today and she could see it (on the hud) and I uploaded it a few hours ago

[potent coral]

No idea, but how big is your base/freighter base if you have one? Because having it to big caused some problems for me

[analog scroll]

Just because it can be faster, does not mean it will be faster. It's ~24 hours typically for ODS to register and spread uploaded discoveries

[potent coral]

Okiii question, will it just appear while Im playing or will I have to fly out of system and come back in to see it?

[analog scroll]

Probably the latter, but I've never tested it to be sure

[gleaming yarrow]

my biggest base has only got 2 cylindrical rooms and in my freighter base i only have the command room

[potent coral]

Guess we’ll find out

[potent coral]

Hrm, no idea then

[gleaming yarrow]

maybe just my connection...
i will try with my hotspot

[wicked flare]

So I’ve been hunting sentinel multi tools and is there a way to see the full super charged slots ? I was thinking save scrubbing after upgrading if it’s caca

[left bobcat]

which of these is my save file

[analog scroll]

The slots will not change on a given tool, you have to find other ones. Best way to do that is to put purchases to free and upgrade until you see them. There's no way to see them

[analog scroll]

You need the whole folder if you're trying to back up saves

[left bobcat]

oooooooooooo so each folder is its own save?

[wicked flare]

Yea I meant to get me upgrade resources back and try on another / figured that be the way was seeing if there was some math equations or something I was missing 🤣 ty ty

[swift sand]

1 character in main menu: save.hg is its autosave, save2.hg is its restore point. accountdata holds account wide unlocks like quicksilver shop purchases, accessible by any character. the mf files are also to be backed up

[left bobcat]

so if i just save and zip the whole folder it'll work?

[swift sand]

yeah, i'd backup to the previous folder, and just zip the st_XXXXX folder

you could ignore the cache folder ofc

[left bobcat]

oh so just the whole NMS folder?

[swift sand]

inside NMS, there's a subfolder called st_bunch of numbers - that st folder is your save folder

[left bobcat]

yes

[gleaming yarrow]

i think sentinels are in love with my colony (it's the 4th time they've attacking me today)

somebody knows how to stop this?

[wicked flare]

Sadly if u built on a pre fab spot it happens

[swift sand]

hmm... wondering, what's options/difficulty/on foot combat set to? 2) does settlement have any negative trait that increases sentinel attention?

[wicked flare]

Maybe a conflict lvl thing would change that

[swift sand]

not sure if it does affect this at all, but figured it could be an avenue to look into

[gleaming yarrow]

i'm checking rn

the sentinel's allert level is at 2%

and there's not any negative effect

[swift sand]

hmm sounds a bit harsh, i dont think i've ever had that many attacks on the same day

@gleaming yarrow do you have a quest called a trace of metal in your mission Log?

[gleaming yarrow]

no i've already completed it

[swift sand]

not sure what might be causing it then - that said, these attacks can just be ignored

[left bobcat]

How high do s tier hyperdrive upgrades go? Could I find one with 200 percent efficiency and plus 400 hyperdrive range?

[gleaming yarrow]

i'll try to ignore it then, thank you

[swift sand]

ships

[gleaming yarrow]

uhh... does pirates attack on planets?

[analog scroll]

They can

[gleaming yarrow]

i have a problem, then...

[swift sand]

if system isnt t1 conflict

[gleaming yarrow]

can i just teleport away from this?

[left bobcat]

Darn. Thanks! I'm pretty much maxed out then; all 3 of mine give plus 100 warpdrive efficiency and at least 200 ly

[swift sand]

away from what sorry

[gleaming yarrow]

from the pirates
my colony is a magnet for bad things...

[swift sand]

sure, just teleport away

they'll be fine

[severe crown]

If pirates are attacking a nearby structure, you can just leave them to defend themselves. You monster. 😛

[gleaming yarrow]

nice

now i teleport back...

this is a moment in history - no sentinels near my colony!

[tiny vortex]

question brothers: engine thruster colors......can be changed? or will always be bluish? (not reffering to the trail they leave behind)

[swift sand]

only through #nms-modding - starship trail tech does not change engine color

[tiny vortex]

why bro

[swift sand]

well, just not implemented i guess. always feel free to submit suggestions on it to the devs 🙂

[topaz horizon]

Question: Crashed Sentinel Ships

Let’s say I find one and the design is what I want. Any other ships I find in that system will all be the same design I know. Could the colors be different?

[analog scroll]

Coloring is part of the model

[topaz horizon]

So all ships will look exactly the same but could have different classes?

Is it worth it to keep looking for a S class vs. upgrading it later with nanites? I’m not 100% on how the supercharged blocks apply in these situations.

[analog scroll]

Up to you, supercharged slots will be the same no matter what

[severe crown]

It was worth it to me because a) I eventually found the S-class I wanted and b) the ships I didn't want got me tons of units.

[tiny vortex]

upgrading will be good if you grew attached to a ship and already spent resources upgrading its slots.
i would upgrade at that point

[swift sand]

the sentinel crashed ship site has the ability to override seed supercharged slot locations, but due to and after a class upgrade, they'll be locked to ship seed alone

[tiny vortex]

btw, assembling
IF i cancel and assemble again, will the stats vary??????

[swift sand]

you'd want to try a diff station with the same parts i think

[tiny vortex]

hmmm i think im happy with those stats for an explorer, personal opinion????

[gleaming yarrow]

it's like the most manuvrable ship i've ever seen

[tiny vortex]

no i meant to ask: whats your personal opinion? lol first ship i assemble. would love to hear some veterans tell me if those stats are worth

[gleaming yarrow]

i never assembled a ship before...

[proper parcel]

can the spikey asteroids that have platinum be found in all systems? doing old expedition and cant seem to find any

[swift sand]

that's certainly within s-class explorer ranges - that hyperdrive range is near the max roll, 6LY short

[topaz horizon]

Not sure I understand what you are saying. Ability to override the SC slots?? (sorry)

[analog scroll]

Platinum can also be found by refining gold+silver

[tiny vortex]

how they look doesnt show what they "drop" though

or at least i checked for a while and they change their drops unfortunately

[swift sand]

two c-class sentinels, same system, diff sites, can end up with different positions on the first SC slot - but the other 3, after both are upgraded to s-class, will be in the same exact position

[proper parcel]

i forgot about this

[tiny vortex]

damn thats good then, and i imagine damage output is normal too, has no weapons installed after all yet

[swift sand]

yeah, all looks good 🙂

[proper parcel]

it is no guaruntee indeed but those do sseem to have higher chance for platinum in my experience

[topaz horizon]

Ahh OK… that makes sense. Are you able to see more SC slots at the crash site for a C vs. an S? (I just don’t remember at the moment how many total slots are available at acquisition time.)

[near matrix]

I’m at a buried technology module destination that says I’ve reached it but I’m not getting the option to retrieve this. Am I doing something wrong? Normally I get a button option pop up to retrieve it.

[analog scroll]

Dig it up?

[near matrix]

As mentioned. I don’t get an option to dig it up.

[analog scroll]

Use your terrain manipulator

Literally dig it up

[near matrix]

I restarted. I don’t have that yet. Nvm.

[dark osprey]

Can u hold a farm with animals and when im off planet do they despawn?

[analog scroll]

They despawn when you leave render distance, even if you're still on the same planet

[dark osprey]

Sadge

[swift sand]

a c-class ship site will never reveal more than 1 SC slot; remember, nr of SC slots is limited and given by class: C1 B2 A3 S4. you'd have to take the c-class, upgrade it till you reveal all sc slots missing: class upgrades first, then adding more tech slots if still needed

[proper parcel]

do ships respawn if you get killed by pirates or what ever?

[swift sand]

yes, they're not deleted, at worst just have a few damaged techs

[topaz horizon]

Sounds good! I think I’ll just take the first ship that has the desired design and color. Luckily I have plenty of nanites to upgrade the class later so I don’t think spending extra time looking for a S is worth it. Thank you!!

[sudden apex]

How many do you have

Upgrading from a to s already costs 10k

[topaz horizon]

I have about 650K.

[analog scroll]

A to S, with pricing set to Standard, costs 50k

[sudden apex]

Then i Just remember IT wrong

[proper parcel]

im on the corvette expedition and cant buy any other ships so im worried tech would get messed up and itd be impossible to fix. well no actualy i have some repair kits so i guess im ok

thx

[analog scroll]

You can only use the corvette you get for that expedition

[proper parcel]

devs probably wont let it get damaged then i imagine

[sudden apex]

I was probably confused because of the price for s class reactor cores.

[sudden apex]

Are you sure that you dont mean unites

650k nanites is insane

[left bobcat]

Where are all the damn pirate ships? I'm sitting in a pirate space station and there's nobody here. Yesterday they were busy

[topaz horizon]

No I have over 4B units. I have over 1000 hours in the game but I’m just now interested in collecting sentinel ships. I do the mold farming quite a bit. 😉

[analog scroll]

650k nanites wouldn't be hard to get

[sudden apex]

Oh Ok thought you were new

[left bobcat]

It's not? 💀

[sudden apex]

I only have about 100k

[left bobcat]

I thought my 4k was a lot lmao

[analog scroll]

No. You can get more than 50k in about 30 minutes with not a lot of effort if you have the money

[left bobcat]

Ah I see. Pirate station tech packets

How do I find pirate s class ships? The pirate station I'm at is dead as a doorknob and I'm trying to get more tech slots for my ship.

[analog scroll]

Save and reload?

If no ships are coming in, that's a way to reset them

[left bobcat]

Okay

I shall wait 🥲

[topaz horizon]

LOL! Even with my hours already there are still so many nuances to this game I don’t understand or aspects I haven’t tried. NMS has turned into my comfort game when I need a chill gaming session to explore and build stuff.

[dense rock]

Some tip for good light source? I know some of plant's for living silver or lamp's are not worst. Still it is a option to make whole room's lighter? Like on freighter?

[analog scroll]

None of the lights are all that good

[swift sand]

try using several pieces: barnacle and candelabra bloom (quicksilver shop), sphere creator (construction research station), some of the space station decorations (construction research station), and some of the exterior lamp poles

[reef mirage]

How many storage augmentations do salvaging A class ships give me?

[dense rock]

Item's mostly make weird round circle of light. There is no option to make it more space covering? I have one freighter megabase and doesn't know lighting regular ground base's can be that hard

[analog scroll]

A-Class shuttles have 50% chance to drop 1-2 Storage Augmentation(s).
All other A-Class ships have 65% chance to drop 1-2 Storage Augmentation(s).

[reef mirage]

How can i make my already made corvette, s class

[left bobcat]

Hmm......should I chance it? Or look for crashed ships to salvage instead?

[analog scroll]

Nanites, and the ship upgrade station

[swift sand]

no option for that - afaik only modding can change those individual light coverages

[analog scroll]

Your choice

[dense rock]

Shit...

Mod are also a option. Still they be propably client side

[left bobcat]

What about s class ships? Are they guaranteed to drop multiple slots?

[analog scroll]

100% chance for 1-3

[left bobcat]

Heck yeah

[proper lodge]

why animals don't produce ANY faecium

i fed them

[analog scroll]

Current bug

Kill them and refine mordite

[mystic lake]

The way high economy systems sell more goods, what's the benefit of peaceful/high conflict systems?

[swift sand]

basically, less pirate attacks; t1 conflict means there's no possibility for planetary pirate raid attacks on buildings/on the player

[proper lodge]

alright thanks

[left bobcat]

Ok I finally found and bought an S class and I'm about to salvage it. Do I click "claim scrap worth" or "extract customization module."

I'm pretty sure it's the second but I wanna be sure

[analog scroll]

Claim scrap

The second is to extracct a ship part to build your own

[left bobcat]

That gets me the tech modules for my current ship yes?

[left bobcat]

Oh

I GOT 3 HELL YEAH

[mystic lake]

Oh

[left bobcat]

How do I apply these storage augmentations to my ship?

[analog scroll]

Same terminal you use to scrap other ships

[karmic vector]

same machine.

[left bobcat]

Thanks!

[scenic quail]

I just bought freighter technology blueprint but i can't build it? It doesn't show up in install technology -section with left mouse click

[analog scroll]

What did you buy and where are you trying to install it?

[karmic vector]

bought it from where

(we're trying to make sure it's actually a freighter tech)

[scenic quail]

From freighters upgrade control system and it was interstellar scanner

[analog scroll]

Does your freighter already have that installed? A screenshot of what you're trying to do would probably help

[karmic vector]

check to make sure you didn't tab over the menu / the minipopup that you see has tabs, and it's easy to accidently knock it over

[scenic quail]

Oops, that was it. I already got it. 😂 🙈

Thank you. I shall go to eye doctor now baiii

[proper parcel]

are all systems in the corvette expedition or any surrounding going to be hostile?

[swift sand]

wdym by hostile sorry?

conflict level?

[proper parcel]

aggressive i mean

[stuck berry]

All planets in it have aggressive sentinels or dissonance I believe, might just be nearly all though I forget

[swift sand]

you mean these synonyms? nah, there should be lower conflict systems in exp19 - though rdv systems might have been t3 outlaw

[warm creek]

do each dissonance planet have only one specific type of sentinel ship?

[proper parcel]

ok thanks the starting planet just had lots of them but all ive seen since is aggressive planets. its painful

[swift sand]

1 sentinel ship design inc. color scheme per suitable dissonant system

[warm creek]

so the color is also the same?

[swift sand]

yep

[proper parcel]

nope i did say systems but meant aggressive sentinel planets. theyrr a pain. just remembered i have cloaking device. ive only ever even used it once. need to dern remember when theyre after me

thx

[swift sand]

cloaking device is definitely one of the ways to quickly have a sentinel/sentinel pack lose track of you, but remember how if you move too far away from pursing party, game will just be allowed to spawn a new one/respawn the ones chasing

[proper parcel]

hmmm good tip didnt knowthat

thx

[warm creek]

oh okay thanks! it was so bad of me not saving the glyphs of the planet where i got my sentinel ship from. i only have the ID of the sentinel ship :/ Is it possible to access previous game saves?

[hot trellis]

I have some anomalous donuts. I’ve built a nutrient ingestor- how important is it to find the perfect Royal Multitool vs upgrading an existing multitool to S?

[left bobcat]

If I choose the "trade in" option when buying an npc's ship, will all my tech modules and cargo automatically be switched over?

[stuck berry]

No.

You will want to package the technology to your exosuit cargo inventory beforehand

[left bobcat]

Oof so I better manually switch everything

Ah okay

Thanks!

[white wagon]

One is time spent trying to roll for it, the other is spending time getting nanites to upgrade the tool I'd think 🤔

[pearl plinth]

Safer bet is to claim as additional ship, swap bits then scrap the one **you don't want, you'll get some units back and may even get extra storage augs.

[raven matrix]

Found a Frothing bubble planet with Dissonance in an outlaw system.
wonder how rare that is

[left bobcat]

Oooooooo okay. I like that idea. Thanks!

[pearl plinth]

Best planet for farming Hexaberry if you're into cooking; hand feed the red blood bubbles then collect from them, collect 100 Hexaberry within minutes.

[raven matrix]

im new to the game, what do you use hexaberries for?

[pearl plinth]

Ah, don't worry for now then, you'll probably get into nutrient processing for buff food later in the game.

[pale marlin]

hello, im like three hours into the game i just basically started and after helping kill some bandits i got this, is it any good?

[raven matrix]

i do have a small garden and nutrient processor but havent done much with them yet

[pale marlin]

it's s class i dont really know what that means but looks cool lol

[analog scroll]

If you like it, it's great. S class is the highest class freighter you can get

[pale marlin]

what do i do with it?

[analog scroll]

It will serve as a mobile base, should you choose to use it that way

[pale marlin]

also where do i have to stand to build inside it i can't find the place

[analog scroll]

Up the green stairs

[pale marlin]

i've also seen i can send them on missions?

[bleak ruin]

guys is there a way i can trade for corvette parts

it keeps saying trade unlikely

1 percent

how do i get parts worth alot

[analog scroll]

Frigates, not the freighter. You can only hire frigates after you get a freighter

[analog scroll]

Dig them up from planets

[pale marlin]

ohh, and how doies that work? what are those missions and are they worth it?

sorry for so much questions lol

[hot trellis]

Plus time locating one to start right?

[analog scroll]

They are initiated from the NPC on the bridge

[pale marlin]

can you tell me how i can build a corvette?

or get one

in any way

[left bobcat]

Ok yeah, where do I turn in pirate transponders?

[pale marlin]

i think its at the space station second floor in a corner

i dont know how to explain it

[left bobcat]

Found something in the corner but it's the merchants guild 😭

[pale marlin]

second floor

[left bobcat]

Yeah it was

[severe crown]

Each station will have only one of the guilds. Each other station in that same system group will have the same guild. You need a different system group and hope to get the right guild.

[bleak ruin]

what has high value?

[novel bone]

Functional parts.
But if you have enough credits, you can just buy regular parts and trade them up.

You can only trade 4 different pieces in at the same time, but multiple of the same part

[bleak ruin]

functional parts?

[proper lodge]

How to install windows on room inside the freighter?

[bleak ruin]

can u give an example

[novel bone]

Shields, weapons, cockpits, reactors

[proper lodge]

Parts with stats and that do something instead of just being cosmetic

[bleak ruin]

good right

[proper lodge]

Hubs, engines etc

[limber kayak]

Do you have an image that shows the class of weapons

[bleak ruin]

fah havent gotten any stat parts

[analog scroll]

Weapons themselves do not have a class

[limber kayak]

I ment like

[novel bone]

Basically I would recommend building a small corvette first, as it is much faster to hunt for corvette parts with a corvette, as you dont have to land it, but can teleport down

[limber kayak]

Type

Staff,royal

That’s the only 2 Ik

[limber kayak]

Thanks

[novel bone]

Thrusters have stats. You can only see the stats in the build menu

[swift sand]

scanning bonus wont affect scanning unit rewards - it only affects pulse scan range, so you can just do any tool you like for scanning for units.

[novel bone]

What I did early game was keeping all parts, and then trade in cosmetic parts once I had enough of them for a solid trade chance

[limber kayak]

What quest do you need for atlanled

Just all the atlas quests?

[bleak ruin]

so was the picture i sent u good in value?

[analog scroll]

You have to do the mission to unlock staff weapons, which means finishing the story first

[novel bone]

You should be able to see the value? afaik the trade in value is soley based on its worth in credits.

[limber kayak]

Did the story already

Well I did the story to the part where I can get purple starts

So what next

[limber kayak]

I did that

[analog scroll]

Then find a monolith in a korvax system and feed the discordant interface some atlantideum

[limber kayak]

Yes slight problem

I don’t think I have any atlantideum

[limber kayak]

I don’t think I have any atlantideum

[analog scroll]

Then go get some. It's everywhere on every dissonant planet

[limber kayak]

Oh ok

[near matrix]

I’ve found a celestial archive building on my planet and I’m wondering how I can mark it on the map so I can come back to it. I’ve clicked save posts at other buildings but I can’t seem to find one here. Or am I being blind?

[analog scroll]

Build a base computer there

[near matrix]

I don’t want to put a base here. I just want to mark it.

[frigid wadi]

base computer is the best way of marking locations

there isnt another really effective way of marking locations otherwise

[near matrix]

I haven’t placed my first base yet though. I’m still trying to find my perfect place. So I didn’t want it to be my first placement.

[analog scroll]

You can teleport to any base via just the computer, and you can have 400 bases

[near matrix]

I don’t want to advance my quest though yet. I’m not ready to. I just don’t want to lose this place in the meantime. Seems illogical that camps have save points but here doesn’t.

[analog scroll]

There is no other way to mark it as you do not yet have access to the save beacon

Save point wouldn't help you

[karmic vector]

those "save points" at camps save your game. You will not find them again.

[karmic vector]

also, you can look in tour visor or at the screen on your ship and WRITE DOWN the latitude and longitude of interesting finds.

[near matrix]

They’re always at the camps I return to. And I can save again on them. What do you mean I will not find them again?

[karmic vector]

how do you find them again? there's no on screen marker to show you where they were

[analog scroll]

They will not let you find the points again. They're not waypoints on a planet, and planets in this game are big

[karmic vector]

sure you can find another camp, but you cant save the location OF a camp

except, with a save point beacon (max 5 per planet / per system?) and/or base computer

[analog scroll]

5 per planet for save beacons

But you need your first base before you can ever unlock the save beacon, because you don't get the terminal until you build the base

[karmic vector]

You will be able to find archive buildings later game pretty easily using maps and/or installed radars. There are many many many of them per planet.

at least, on planets where there are any at all.

(which is a good 66% or more)

[analog scroll]

Roughly half of the systems in the game are uninhabited 😉

[proper lodge]

If i get staff from expedition will i be able to use it or i need to finish quest first?

[analog scroll]

Expedition rewards don't need missions other than the expedition requirements to be able to unlock and use them

[near matrix]

Thank you. I just went for the co-ords approach for now. Appreciated

[proper lodge]

Alright thanks

[tropic ginkgo]

archives can also simply be spawned by using charts
unless I'm wrong and archives don't count

[analog scroll]

That doesn't spawn the POI, just directs you to it. The POI is coded into the planet seed

[tropic ginkgo]

given how huge planets are, might as well, the result is functionally the same, but I get the point

[proper lodge]

Why most colored systems don't have any information about them?

[frigid wadi]

you need the drives, the ecnomy scanner and the combat scanner installed to see it all

[proper lodge]

I have all that

[analog scroll]

You don't have the economy scanner installed. Or you're selecting red/green/blue/purple systems that are uncharted

[frigid wadi]

yeah, theres regions in galaxies with a lot of uncharted systems

[analog scroll]

95% of Red, 40% of green/blue, and 20% of purple systems are uncharted

An additional 10% of Green/Blue and 35% of Purple systems are abandoned

[proper lodge]

Oh i see

Will i be able to see everything about system after warping in it?

[analog scroll]

If there's anything to see

If it's uncharted, there is no dominant race, no economy, no conflict

[undone gale]

Is it possible to...hmm... 🤔 "upscale" screenshots generated with the NMS screenshot tool? SpaceEngine of course has the hires screenshot tool...but the internal screenshotter from NMS lately has just been...pixelly 🥴 I don't know how else to describe it.

I run at 1440p, because my rig can't handle 4k...any advice? Should I just use F12 (Steam)?

[analog scroll]

Turn off DLSS/FSR when taking screenshots

[undone gale]

Huh. I don't have it on.

[proper lodge]

Settings on max and after taking screenshots just turn graphics back to normal

You can use mods too if it won't bother you too much

[undone gale]

I have over a dozen mods, heh, that'll definitely not be a problem.

First image is using windows Print-screen. As you can see, that's clearly the best quality. Second is using Steam's internal screenshot tool, F12. Third is NMS in-game screenshot...and it's the worst by a discernable margin. 😶

These are my graphics settings.

[proper lodge]

Hmmm

Idk what could be the problem then

[analog scroll]

Scroll down to your anti-aliasing settings too

[pale marlin]

i just said he has a nice ship and he gave me all of this

what even is that 😭

[undone gale]

Sure thing

[analog scroll]

Hover over the items, they will tell you what they are

[proper lodge]

Corvette parts, valuable stuff, augments for exosuit and ship(aka cargo and tech slots), exosuit pod chart, proton cannon(?) supreme upgrade and exosuit upgrade also thanks for the method

Will try it next time

[pale marlin]

i was just trying to be nice 😭

he had a cool ahh ship tho i cant lie

[proper lodge]

These corvette parts are aeron btw, which is from expedition 20 and unobtainable without trading with other people and if you didn't do that expedition

Also you can change game files to play old expeditions

[proper lodge]

Wait, did he have HUGE red ship that looks like a freighter?

[pale marlin]

noono

it was like a black one

[pale marlin]

damn so its valuable?

[proper lodge]

Black and red?

[proper lodge]

Well yeah but i'd recommend to build corvette with it instead of selling

[pale marlin]

yes

mostly black tho

very sdharp edges i thikn

[proper lodge]

Is it this?

[pale marlin]

is it easy to build one

[pale marlin]

nahhh

i think it was a corvette

it wasnt too big

[proper lodge]

Yes

[pale marlin]

thats a big price...

[proper lodge]

Yeah...

[gleaming yarrow]

you're rich i guess...

[proper lodge]

Standing on space station and complementing every corvette in sight

24/7

[proper lodge]

Also i'd recommend to watch a guide so you know what it can do and etc

[pale marlin]

i think ill watch a tutorial

how to build a cool one or something

[proper lodge]

You can also place parts inside each other

And there's bug to place parts without connecting them

[pale marlin]

it looks confusing

[gleaming yarrow]

the same thing happened to me
once a random guy gave me 50 of these, i followed him to say thank you and he gave me other 50

i mean it's allright

[proper lodge]

Nah it isn't trust me

[pale marlin]

should i build it from a tutorial?

[proper lodge]

I made pretty cool corvette in like 5 minutes

[proper lodge]

Nah, do as you want

Tutorial are made to just show you basics

[pale marlin]

if i do smth wrong can i like remove the parts?

[proper lodge]

Everything else is coming straight from your imagination

Yes

[pale marlin]

or disassemble or something

even after i created the corvette?

[proper lodge]

Yes

You can modify your corvette any time you want

[pale marlin]

so lets say im bored with the current one, i can just take it apart?

[proper lodge]

Yes

You get all parts back

[pale marlin]

okay thank you

[proper lodge]

Tho you need parts like cockpit and etc too but you can buy them in the same place as where you build corvette

Or find them on planets with "salvaged scrap" in resource list

[sage nebula]

Anyone know how to get this particular staff?

[analog scroll]

It was an expedition reward, no longer available without modding/save editing

[sage nebula]

What’s save editing?

[analog scroll]

#nms-modding

[pale marlin]

r they cheap?

[sage nebula]

Goat

[pale marlin]

what's the best reactor i can get for example, and whats the difference

or is it just looks difference

[gleaming yarrow]

can somebody help me with a mission?
i'm on the mission ''machine prayers'' (hope the traduction is correct) and it tells me to call the anomaly to carry out a scan of atlantideum-sensitive processors
do i have to enter the anomaly? (hope everything is clear)

[analog scroll]

Yes, you have to go inside

[gleaming yarrow]

okk thanks

[proper lodge]

With your money? Yes

[analog scroll]

https://nomanssky.miraheze.org/wiki/They_Who_Returned#Prayers_of_the_Machine There are 4 terminals you need to give Atlantideum to, the first is on the Anomaly

[proper lodge]

All of them serve different role

[proper lodge]

Gimme a sec i'll say what each does

[pale marlin]

is there a way to read that somewhere so i dont bomb you with questions

oh

well thats that

lol thank you

[sage nebula]

@analog scroll can u save edit on ps?

💔

[gleaming yarrow]

and the other 3?

[analog scroll]

If you have the game on Steam as well, you can cross save to Steam, then save edit; but there is no access to the saves on Playstation

[analog scroll]

Listed on that link

[gleaming yarrow]

okk thank you

[sage nebula]

Wait so if I buy the game on steam i can transfer my progress from my ps to pc??

[proper lodge]

nomansskyresources.com but don't worry abour bombing me with question

[urban citrus]

Wjats the best economy for cool ships?

[pale marlin]

idk i just kinda want a corvette that looks cool to fly around and aura farm lol idk the purpose

big fast ship

[analog scroll]

Ship types aren't based on economy (though class chances is), they're primarily based on the dominant system race

[urban citrus]

Oh ok

So which race has the coolest ones?

I have geks, the robots, and the vykeen

[proper lodge]

Ceto reactor-shield strength
Zenith reactor- warp range and efficiency
Medusa reactor- manoeuvrability and boost
Azimuth reactor- pulse drive efficiency, launch cost and automatic recharging

[analog scroll]

Korvax = More Explorer models, Gek = More Hauler models, Vy'Keen = More Fighter models. 7 of each in systems of each race, +3 of each of the others, + 7 shuttles (one of which can be a solar) + 1 exotic

[pale marlin]

can i only have one type?

[proper lodge]

There are hubs which are interior of your corvette, you can build in them, decorations anywhere and functional modules in walls

[proper lodge]

You can have all 4 types with 3 each

[urban citrus]

Dammit alright

[pale marlin]

oh wow well thats cool

[proper lodge]

You can have more than 3 actually but after you place 3rd all excess reactors of the same type will he useless and won't provide any buff

[gritty sequoia]

What are this pillar lookin icons?

[pale marlin]

3 should be enough

[wheat cove]

Your frigates on a mission

[pale marlin]

he also gave me this

[gritty sequoia]

Oooh thats cool I didnt know it showed where they where/are

[pale marlin]

i didnt see that

it's a drive

[wheat cove]

Sometimes you get missions to help them out (fighting pirates, translating stuff, etc)

[gleaming yarrow]

are you on a mission with that icon?

[gritty sequoia]

damn ig they all need help lol

[analog scroll]

No, that's just where they are, not that they need help

[gritty sequoia]

oh alr

[analog scroll]

Also, they will only actually be in that system if they call for help

The game just marks them as close to you

[sage nebula]

How can we tell the rewards for expeditionsv

[analog scroll]

Look in the quicksilver shop. They're all listed there

[proper lodge]

What happens if i press "continue" when frigate captain asks to return or continue expedition with extremely damaged frigate?

[analog scroll]

They can get destroyed

[proper lodge]

Then they'll be returning always

Ain't letting a couple millions die

[livid kayak]

Even the ones that were a expedition reward?

[analog scroll]

No, those 2 cannot be damaged, iirc

[livid kayak]

Ok, yeah make sense

[pale marlin]

where can i buy other modules for my corvette? currently i can only buy a medusa class reactor

[livid kayak]

You can trade for different parts, in the same terminal

[pale marlin]

yea but can i trade with the items i buy there?

[proper lodge]

Destroy something that's already destroyed?

[analog scroll]

You have to find the advanced parts. The items you can purchase cannot be traded

[livid kayak]

I don't believe so. You'll have to find some unique ones in the wild

[pale marlin]

oops

that takes a while doesnt it

[livid kayak]

Normandy isn't

[livid kayak]

Not at all. there's a lot of those parts scattered around the planets that have salvagable scrap in their description

[pale marlin]

oh okay thank you

[livid kayak]

i like to get some of those, using my Pilgrim exocraft. Makes the process even faster.

[native girder]

hello i need some parts on corvette and material Areon my code is CCWZ-1QHP-N3RQG i will wait o space station ❤️

[urban citrus]

Its kinda lame find the same kinds of ships over and over tho

[analog scroll]

#nms-lfg-or-trades

[proper lodge]

Does pilgrim have terrain manipulator and mining laser?

[analog scroll]

There are only 21 ship models in each system. Once you see them, move on if you want to see others

[proper lodge]

Create one yourself

[native girder]

thx ❤️

i didint saw that

[proper lodge]

How to use in game chat?

[karmic vector]

buy a PC 😛

[somber echo]

Is there a way to check how many units you've spent on a corvette? (Without taking it apart)

[untold cove]

anything i should/could do with the stem</egg while i wait?

[gritty sequoia]

So what Do the Lights on your Frigate mean?

[analog scroll]

On PC, press enter. On console, you cannot

[proper lodge]

Alright thanks

[analog scroll]

Positive and negative traits

[karmic vector]

put in your freighter so it doesn't get broke or lost

[untold cove]

oh, it can break??

[proper lodge]

It will at the end of the quest

[karmic vector]

it can break if you complete the main questline or go thru the core of the galaxy, or if you DIE

if it breaks, the timer resets.

[untold cove]

i can leave it in the freighter and it will still hatch?

idk how this works 😹

[karmic vector]

yeah it doesnt care where it is. Put back in your pocket when you get tot he 5th stage

[proper lodge]

Yep, all you need is to wait for new parts to mature

[untold cove]

cool ty

[kind forum]

Can someone tell me why this much mould appeared in my inventory

[untold cove]

no synthesizing the egg beforehand?

[karmic vector]

you went to the anomaly and someone stuffed it in your pocket when your eyes were closed.

[analog scroll]

You were in the Anomaly and someone gave it to you

[proper lodge]

Maybe someone gave it to you

[kind forum]

Thx

[karmic vector]

synthesizing?

[proper lodge]

You could refine it into nanites

[analog scroll]

You don't do that with the Void Egg

[untold cove]

kk, ty

[untold cove]

how come they dont stack to 9999 ?

[karmic vector]

remember to ask us about the last step when you get to the point where you're warping too many times.

[limber kayak]

Can I have glyphs for a multitool

[analog scroll]

One of the last steps of Starbirth requires portal glyphs

[proper lodge]

Void Egg is more like walkie talkie between you and living ships soul rather than egg even if it has egg in it

[untold cove]

right'o

[analog scroll]

#nms-multitools #nms-lfg-or-trades or the coordinate exchange on reddit or their own site

[fiery escarp]

W or L

Idk how to make a good atlas one

[proper lodge]

Cool

Looks like sentinel ship

[urban citrus]

Where would I find these?

[analog scroll]

Vy'keen systems

[urban citrus]

Fuck

[analog scroll]

You can check #nms-legacy-ships or nmsce if you have the glyphs to travel to specific systems, or just look in Vy'keen systems

[tacit smelt]

i found this suuuper cool sentinal ship, but its only C class, what would it cost upgrading it to S?

[urban citrus]

Alright

[analog scroll]

85k nanites on Standard pricing

[limber kayak]

Where am I most likely to find royal ships

[tacit smelt]

standard? are there other pricings?

[analog scroll]

There is 1 exotic model in every populated system

[untold cove]

keep hunting for at least a-class imo.

[analog scroll]

Reduced, Expensive, and free; so yes

[proper lodge]

How rare are A and S class sentinels?

[analog scroll]

Depends on system economy

[proper lodge]

Whats the highest?

[urban citrus]

Why cant I use the economy scanner any more?
