Oui ok
Are there any useful pets for combat against Sentinels and other hostile enemies?
👀
The only reason you would want to start the exp on a new save file, is to avoid potential bugs. I've seen some people reporting their main save being corrupted after they did the expedition.
Not really
If you install the AI module inside your Minotaur exocraft, i guess you can classify it as a pet 🙂
Just as useful as normal pets, or your squadron 😂
#no-mans-sky is a better place for general questions, but know that you're asking a server full of enthusiasts if the thing they like is worth buying...
No, takes too much time for too little investment. Other games come across as not worth the value 👀
no disrespect man I am confused thats y I came here
Yeah, it helps just a bit 🙂 but when it comes to the squadron, they're better fighters now, then they used to be 🙂
Depends if u like chill casual space sci fi fantasy sand box exploration focused games with some multiplayer features. Its not a action focused space war game.
I mean I do like exploration I have completed elden ring 100%
I do like sci fi
ok I will buy it
Just keep in mind that NMS isn't a very challenging game. It's more of a casual experience.
And has a lot of nerdy stuff to nerd about
always confuses me why people try to seek an unbiased opinion in game discords where you're not likely to find people who wouldn't recommend you the game
I am an engineer
go ahead then
Ahh i think it happens every expedition. Not a new issue
I am analytical guy that asks people directly which I dont think is wrong
It can happen, but it's probably not a common occurance to be honest. But yeah - start from a new file, just to be safe
U sure u will get enough time to play...
Yeah yeah true
I need one game for casual interactions where I can go for multiplayer and have fun
Yeah fair. Ask any questions here if u get stuck, ppl are very helpfull & nice here
max 1-2 hours in weekdays maybe
u sure?

The multiplayer here is a bit buggy and not very, extensively developped. Just keep that in mind
Thankuuuuuu 
What a time to randomly open this channel.
fr
its okay tho ,would be playing this game for fun... so dw
Is there way to use build manu while being in minotaur?
Nope, have to get out
yupp
By the way guys, no matter what troubleshoot i try. I cant play multiplayer in game
i see player for few sec
then they disappear
Sad, seems like i gotta constantly recharge my shield while building base on gas giants and look out for tornados😔
that one dude literally shared a nude pic after your mssg, that timing is insane
Then something is blocking peer to peer traffic on your internet connection

It doesnt happen in any other games though
i have played minecraft, palworld etc many more
Few other games use p2p as a multiplayer system
Those are server-based multiplayer
Yeah, those two above use p2p
btw thanks guys for helping me out see u all
no not server. Normal host and connection
have fun
sadly yeah lol
u can verify in net.
So idk why im getting issue in NMS only

One exe can be blocked while others are not. Firewall, router, antivirus
Start there
If you played a long time ago (year+) and it worked then, you can also try deleting game install folder\Binaries\SETTINGS\TKGAMESSETTINGS.MXML
yeah i checked firewall, i thought it worked as it lasted more than seconds. but same in the end
Is there any way to learn atlas words besides on the atlas station bubble things?
umm whats this ? cache ?
It's a game settings file
No, it's your game settings
follow-up question. If I go to an atlas station, get all the word bubbles, then leave without talking to it, does that mess up the Atlas path quest at all?
Why would you leave without talking to it? But no, it won't
I realized I'm only like 20-ish words from having all of them, and I kind of enjoy slowly learning what it's saying before hand 😅 🤷
You can learn more when you complete the Atlas Path and it turns to Atlas Eternal, also impressive learning 220+ words without completing the Atlas Path at all
I've very much ignored a lot of the critical path. I got to the point where Apollo told me I should build my base up and did a few of the atlas station things, then went off and did all the side content first instead😅
are all the space stations abandoned in expedition 20?
What’s going on after the expedition 21
Yes
A period of nothing followed by another update, somewhere along the line another expedition. That's how it is after every expedition release, I don't expect this one to be any different
Pretty much. Player bases are hidden aswell
Ah Okie
I luv no man’s sky
Same. i just dream of so many bugs being patched one day 😅
Hello guys, do anybody have a spawning sac please
well shit. so no upgrade modules besides what i brought with me. that blows. selling space ships and multitool parts was how ive always made units and nanites luckily found a fat load of curios deposits that i can refine for nanites but units will be a problem. shit you cant make a corvettee either i guess
thank you
also i wont be able to get new inventory space
my jetpack doesn't recharge that fast, is there a secret? I feel like i have most of the best upgrades, maybe its some sorta food?
Increase recharge rate via movement upgrades
It can depend on the type of upgrades you install
Not all upgrades boost the same things
ok . thanks. im just intimidated. havent really looked at the milestones actually. i might aughta do that
hm
My layout is just this, and the video featured no usage of food and no mods that improve anything about what's happening in them
what are those?
Autophage/rebuilt upgrades
bought from autophage synthesis terminals for void motes
their stats are identical to the sentine/forbidden modules
Void Motes, yes
What stats do you have that your game so beautiful and smooth?
Damn illegal passports are expensive asf I'm gonna make BANK
Is there any specific economy where selling illegal stuff makes more money? Or just non pirate sectors in general
Non pirate sectors
for my first base how do i find a Paradise planet when i dont have a warp drive
i use lossless scaling with 2x frame generation for 100+ fps everything on ultra
If one isn't in your starter system, this is fully impossible
just progress the tutorial to unlock the hyperdrive
You don't. You build it in the system you start in and keep it built until you're sure you don't need it anymore
Check all planets in your system, if there no paradise system then just get hyperdrive and search for them
You can have 400 bases eventually, so it's not going to matter where your first one goes (the planet the story is directing you to will be the host of several upcoming parts of your story mission, though)
They're just starting, they don't have the hyperdrive yet
Just this stuff, plus two mods that kinda help (fine lod and 2x grass lod distance)
mods?
Yes, mods installed that change data files in the game
o.O
First screenshot was enough to realise that i'm not getting to this level any time soon
Yeah but id rather sell am at 160 percent 😏 cause I'm lazy
I have found that after about 316 bases or so, the game stops putting icons on the galaxy map for your bases, and multiplayer crashes on opening the galaxy map / i have not tested this since the 4-settlement allowance was introduced
Likely depends on complexity and proximity
Oh no no lol
Also, how would anyone get caught snuggling when you're like 2 feet from the station everytime u warp into system lol?
If you sell your wraith ship are you able to buy another one from the anomaly
When it comes to money making, i'd recommand looking into the Nutrient Ingestor + Nectar Islands recipe 🙂
If someone decides to attack something and anger sentinels
Tbh getting sentinel scan is more rare than finding rare deep space object
But snuggling is fun 🥹
I got only like 1 or 2 in my 60 hour save
Lmao 🤣
Am I not allowed to make a corvette in the expedition?
In expedition 21? No. You have no access to any ship until you complete it
Lmao amazing timing. Just got scanned and attacked by pirates while trying to go planetside
You can summon freighter and get inside it to scare them off like little kids
Naaaah I wanna test my new ship weapons
how can i find more TRitium in space, everything i shoot is all silver
Are there 255 or 256 galaxies?
255 that you can reach solo, the 256th you have to be taxied to
Find different asteroids. Tritium asteroids will be the most common. Alternatively, if your starting system has a planet with Pyrite you can use that instead (and it's far more efficient)
Find an asteroid belt. Also, the pilots that land in the stations often do sell it. I like to buy it from them when i'm around
How did first humans got there?
Save edit
Does anyone know why I can't talk to the dreadnoufht captian, im holding x to talk to them. It puts me in the animation like im going to then it kicks me out rhe animation
I can post the clip if that helps
It let's me talk to all the other people in it but the captain
Had a similiar bug lately, but when i tried to talk to one of my settlers. Restarting the game helped me
Won't that get rid of it tho
Mostly likely
I remember standing in npc freighter i saved and after restarting game it disappeared and i was left in space
The game creates restoration points when you exit your ship. Alternatively check when did you had your last autosave
I got it i had to position myself weirdly infront of the captain
How do I name my companion?
Open up your quick menu and select your pet there
you should be able to find it, when you select the paw icon and then companion register
companion register
Does anyone have planeta with rideable supersonic flies?
I completed the story but far from unlocking and having everything, am i still in mid game or late game?
Do you have access to Purple systems?
No. Diplos have long necks
Guys I found a rare deep space hazard containment field wtf do I do?
Admire it, talk to it, fly through it, shoot it, and/or/then move on and enjoy your day
i put on cross save from my xbox account to my steam account, i only see my steam save there, how do i find my xbox save....
Did you upload your Xbox save?
Anything to get from it?
Maybe, maybe not. Some do, others do not
😭 i cant get to it cause it was a gamepass thingy
You have to upload the save to be able to access it
Do a 1 week GamePass trial (or whatever the smallest, cheapest one is) to get access to it
Interesting.
I'll shoot it and find oth
Out
the gamepass trial is a scam now, its limited to 50 games for a dollar, and NMS is not on it
I got abyssal worms what do I do with em? 💀
I don’t even know what those are lol
Get vaccinated? 😂
Oh yeah btw, is there anything I should know about NMS that ya’ll think I might not?
(For example a QoL feature i might notve found)
You can swap at any time between buying/applying cargo slots and tech slots. Works on ships, freighters, and your suit
There's probably a lot 😉 Just play the game or ask about something specific
!faq-beginnertips in #nms-commands has a lot of lesser-known tips
That one took me an embarrassingly long time to learn
🤣🤣
Odd question how high can you actually build cause want to 2 office blocks for settlements
Is there a fast way to transfer upgrades to different mutlitools?
and i wouldn't recommand buidling anything inside settlements. Any update might erase your project there
Package them, swap tools, install. That's the only way other than rebuilding from scratch
Also know that the game will let you build over the height limit while you're building, but when you leave/come back or save and load the game anything over height will disappear from view
That's how people end up with half of an orbital base
Ah ty I hope it doesn't I love building
Ty everyone I love the nms community it's an honor to part of an amazing experience
Also how do I get the best modules for my ships is there any good way
Just keep searching space stations for the ones you want
Ty colours
The best you can get are the X modules, bought from pirate stations, but those are a gamble. Try to get a set of S-class modules first
why do i get storm or toxic damage so much on a planet but my partner has no effects
weather effects might not sync, while playing in a group, and your partner might have a better hazard protection modules
but we both just started the game and have the same suits
Then weather is probably out of sync
Oh Kk
Follow up, how far can you dig down?
What’s the max size for a sandworm?
Uh
I have a 10 meter big sandworm that’s my companion
Why can’t I interact all all?
Too big. Interact prompt too far away
Upgrade modules for freighter, only found in DF?
No, they are also acquired from destroying pirate dreadnoughts without allowing them to surrender, or from destroying civilian freighters in non-outlaw systems #nms-commands message
How do I ride my 4.6m sandworm
Is it a flying worm or a sandworm?
Thank you
Flying worm
sandworms are extremely non-functional as companions, as they were never intended to be
Then just interact with it after you spawn it
when you spawn it, does it make loud noises and dig?
it should be super simple to just summon it and ride it if it's a flying worm
it goes underground
Oh
whoever gave you that should have probably told you
Wait then how the hell do I have it
Now I feel like an idiot trying for an hour to interact with it
I made 1 extra set of all atlas seeds because they glitched.
I finished the quest.
Throw away?
So is it a common thing to build small bases with teleporters on Planetary archives next to the guild envoy's kiosk? That's what I've been doing and it kinda pays off .
i today took a break from heading to the galactic centere and noticed that you very slowy gain the glyphs about evrey miniute, is there a actal effect is all 16 minutes run out and the universe booms?
oh, well, ill ask again tomorrow.
If you're doing The Purge quest, you get a glyph every time you jump to another system. It doesn't even have to be towards the center, any direction should work.
And no, nothing is going to explode 🙂
You don't have to go that far. Just do the jumps untill you get all the glyphs
hey sorry for the very late reply; i assume you're still having issues with this?
keep watching the video - where's the grass at?
ok
it's bad
ooh dang
not as bad as mine, thotgh, it crashes at least once per time i paly
play
Some optimization issues lately. The longer i play the less FPS i got. No crashes tho
my game dosent lower FPS, its a memory problem, it generly happens when in biuld mode or in a online team
Yeah, might be a memory leak
probably is
yeah I do
I mean its a bit inconsistent
sometimes it loads fast, sometimes slow
but stuttering, 100% of the time
NEVER played this game smooth
ooh dang
clean boot the machine and retest the game https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows-da2f9573-6eec-00ad-2f8a-a97a1807f3dd
Are all the Protection Modules like "Thermal Protection Model" just shields? Are there any other that reduce the incoming damage like the C-modules like "Toxin Protector" do (e.g., -21% toxin damage)
x-class hazard prot buff core hazard prot tech like the +21% c-class techs
up to 4 stats corresponding the hazard types, +10% being max stat
Can any buildable objects be landed on? Like floors or paving?
if its big enough
not that i'm aware of
some can, but not much
Im doing the trace of metal quest, and i need to speak to Ariadne, he has the icon over him but says to come back another day.
I logged out, logged back in, left the anomaly, came back , I even gave up turned everything off and went to the dmv. Still not working. Any suggestions?
How long do you wait? The quest says go see him
Xbox
do you have the first quest item on you? the one you got from mercury?
Xbox... idk how those work, but chek for updates mabey
Yes
can you confirm the name of the item, please?
Portal phylactery
yeah that's correct
well, i dont know a thing about this, so goodbye
have you tried selecting a diff mission, then disabling multiplayer in network settings, then fully restarting the game, loading back in, warping to a different system, resummon anomaly there, then try again selecting the mission again?
I will try that now
I'm trying to get better at building.
is there any easy way to flip this block 180 degree vertically while also snapping.
I really wish we had upside down 90 degree triangles.
^ like that
i think you might want to start learning about glitch building techniques (or perhaps a base building mod) to overcome these limitations
Still nothing.
the icon is still on his head, but i went to polo, he gave me beads, so ill just run around and try everyone else i guess
that's really weird
would definitely recommend raising a bug report on this when you get a bit of spare time
i wonder if you'd just get the needed item from something like service bot, would that progress it all the way
Service bot?
https://nomansapp.com, should be getting nanite filament or something like that from ariadne
So I only got the first thing and beads from polo but I visted everyone else and then went back to tethys and got sentinel flare(off)
Im good, went planetside and checked. I got him. The quest bugged out a bit but still went thru so.... ¯_(ツ)_/¯
How many days until a creature can lay an egg?
24 hours i think
if they are mature
So they fully grow up in 24 hrs
i just got this game on xbox its stuck on red circle
Untill animal is adult (diffrent per animal type. up to 2 weeks) and in native climate
😭
that's such a weird glitch, so weird. glad it somehow went through.
what do i need for the freighter to tp to the system im in? its all fueled up. but when i tried to summon it in a diff system, it said i didnt have something, (forgot what it was)
Freighters also need Hyperdrive Star Upgrades
Cadmium, Emeril and so on
got it, is it thesame with starships, i just need the blue one and i can travel to theother 2?
If you were in any star system other than yellow star, it might not be able to warp in since it is missing a drive upgrade
Exactly
Unlock them on freighter's bridge first and then install
already installed, just now
They also increase the jump range by a decent amount so makes sense to keep even the outdated ones
my jump range is like 2500 on my freighter 😭
Fair nuff
Any tips for begginers?
Need resonance matrix for every single one
you can make sodium with magnetized ferrite and nitrogen in a refiner
😰
check out this post - it's a bit big, so you may even have to scroll up to get to the start of it, but yeah, nice infos there: <#nms-commands message>. also, in the #nms-commands channel, type !faq to get a list of lots of helpful commands
iirc there's some pinned posts in #nms-fauna with mats to use in egg sequencer
I was meaning which one has the biggest impact on growth
I heard it was platinum but not too sure
that's the one i normally use, but i think that the other materials just need more quantity to get to the same levels
I used platinum and it said weight and height decreasing?
how do I use voice chat in VR? 
hmm, what kind of animal are you trying to sequence?
big ass worm
is it enabled in options/network settings?
yeth
and are you in a group with the other player(s)?
oh, well, no 
i think it only works when in groups
-
Early your storage space will be very limted. Do the base building quest until you get storage box BP from the overseer.
1.1 All storage boxes with the same number have the same contents.
1.2 You can also build the storage boxes in a freighter or a corvette.
1.3 You can buy one inventory slot per space station (limit 120 total iirc) and is one of the cheaper storage space increases. Once you know how to get a solid amount of credits, you want to buy that slot it every time. -
Do not modify the terrain to build a base. Terrain modification often regenerates!
Is it possible to give someone eggs of a 10 meter tall creature and have it be 10 meters tall when it hatches
dont think so
Aw
they're infants when they hatch so it will always take a little bit to grow
i went and got an egg from my worm from exp4, then put it in the sequencer, says that it will increase using platinum; not sure why yours said decreasing
How do u install tech modules to exocraft?
pretty much the same way as you do on ships for example
unlock them, click on a free exocraft tech slot, select from the list
Ooooooooooooooooooooo
upgrade modules, same deal - obtain upgrade modules from space station module shops (there are no x-class exocraft upgrade modules) and just install them on a free tech slot
is there a way to check what i get from where_
i have some fuel accelerant and i want to make sure i got it from my freigther's expeditions and not gifted by a player
do i need a black hole?
can drop from fleet expeditions for example
ok so it tracks that i actually won this fair and square
if you end up needing to/wanting to black hole travel - you will be able to - they're really common, 1 per galaxy map region
yep, you most likely did
ooh, is it random every time?
where i tp to
the same black hole always leads to the same system - but there's tons of black hole systems, and they all lead closer towards the galactic core
wow fleets really do pay for it self, but i didn't expected that to happen so quick... like 2 or 3 expeditions and you are set
fleet expeditions are one of my fav ways to get stuff passively
this is partially why i dont wait to get a free freighter early on
ummm. theres 11 hours left in the expidition, what happens then? another one or we have to wait?
different topic, commerce wise, if I have scientific-type trade goods... are scientific economies best to sell at? or is it all just random?
yes, you get new expeditions to send your ships on
im not talking bout sending ur fleet out like u were
im talking bout the expiditions like we r on 21 rn.. 22 tomorrow or we have to wait is what im asking
dont mean to sound rude either
oh no worries, yea don't know about that
Are the corvette the exocraft??
How rare are infested paradise planets?
It was cause it was max size
guys how do i find a outlaw solar system?
Get a Conflict Scanner for your ship and apply the conflict filter in Galaxy Map. You want to find systems with a Skull icon
ok
do u know any way to increase the tech slot on a corvette?
Haven't touched corvettes yet. I'm new
Hey so I’m doing Industrial Cleanup quest and it says process industrial waste and I’ve done it numerous times with both the flat bed to a site and also the incinerator upgrade
I can’t get the quest to move on or complete
You should! It's fun
i bought packets from a couple outlaw stations 3-4 days ago and not 1 of them has restocked anything, whats wrong?
I just got the game today can anyone teach me how to play
Theres tutorials at the start of the save that can lead u around to basic gameplay elements
Is it showing stats like how much you hauled over the life of the save or something else?
Yes
Lifetime waste management statistics
Yep that part of it won't go away.
🙁
Thanks for the info, my useless quest ocd will just have to suffer then
This game is good for triggering that.
yo im trying to use service bot on nomansapp and it keeps saying bot is busy
So is this a problem still? I needed Dietrium so I put a stack of Tritium in my refiner, jumped down to the planet and harvested up some Di-hydrogen and when I got back my Large refiner on my Freighter the stack of Trit was gone. I looked in every single storage, exo suit and starship it just poofed.
long lasting bug with refiners in general, babysit (ie dont go to another area and leave them behind) them or they'll lose their contents
Went out and left the Hydrogen in and when I came back the Tritium is back IN THE REFINER but the freaking Di-Hydrogen in gone. Going to pull out the Trit and do the same thing and see if the Di-Hydrogen comes back
Is there a way to rearrange the screens on my ship? I finally found an exotic and the frickin throttle is obscuring some of the screens
tbh ive been leaving stuff in my refiners in my corvette and i havent noticed anything despawning
ive noticed input items despawn if my portables runs out of fuel first
so from an entirely personal experience, if you're noticing things despawning, try smaller batches of things ig
and I dont really fly my corvette around as often, I use mine like a portable base. so I do leave it very often somewhere to despawn off the map with 3 refiners running
im not understanding what's going on with my boltcaster DPS. I have ROF and rounds in burst stacked up pretty high, and sometimes itll do ridiculous damage, sometimes it wont, and feathering the trigger into shorter bursts actually gets me more damage usually
any ideas on that
it's not about accuracy, ik that
guys when is nms expediton 20 gonna be here

When is the next expedition?
We do not know when the next expedition will be.
👉 Expeditions are not run on a set schedule, and we have no insight as to when they may occur.
But last year there were X many expeditions!
✅ Correct! However...
There is no quota for the amount of expeditions per year. When Hello Games is ready to run an expedition, they will run an expedition.
guys why does my outlaw system have no outlaw shops?
are you sure it's an outlaw system?
What are the exocraft?
Yeah there's a thing on the anomaly where you buy weapon/parts for multitools, ships, and so on and there is a terminal for bases one of the tabs should have a wireless upgrade that does nothing other than hide wires (there is cosmetic wires you can get that are non functional and don't hide)
Vehicles
But like is it the corvette or is that seperate
corvettes are ships
so that's seperate
corvettes are buildable ships, like piece by piece
exocraft are planetary vehicles, like subs, mechs, and ground vehicles
Can ship engine upgrades improve base speed? Or just boost?
Also how the hell do people get hyperdrive ranges of like 3000?
If I built a storage on my base, before i got teh freighter i want, and i rebuild the same numbered storage now on freighter, is that keeping all the contained items and just moving the "access" point of said items?
yes
thanks
is there a practical difference between interceptors and most ships?
Would anyone be able to explain the basics of going about getting my staff? I just recently started playing again and have no idea where to get one.
is there a rule of thumb on knowing where to sell things to get more for them?
You make one during a mission, after finishing the artemis path
so mostly stats and some tech. thx
I think I get the idea with trade goods and the wiki tells about them anyways. but what about things like raw ingredients and components
Those are mostly the same, just sell them to pilots so the price does not go down
damn, I got like.... maybe 15 mill in gravatino balls, i was hoping to game it a bit lol
Well I get that- but I was kinda hoping more for a general direction to look for dissident planets and harmonic camps since that seems to be what I'm missing. I've already finished the Artemis thing I'm fairly certain so I've been hunting for a dissident planet for about an hour or so now.
Google isn't exactly the most helpful resource for this sorta thing since everything is mostly a vague outline of what to do.
So upon hatching my first titanworm egg I’ve gotten one that looks almost exactly like an eel, I’ve tried overloading the genes for the following eggs to see if I get a new variant but I’m currently on generation 3 of eels and none of them have had anything changed. Am I missing something? Does it take a lot of generations before changes happen or am I stuck with eel titanworms? (I’ve hatched 5 eels altogether and literally no changes)
is using service bot bannable?
you open galmap, you find a system that has the "dissonant" tag, warp there, then see which planet is the dissonant one, fly there
spending "an hour" seems excessively long, as you can see all systems that have a dissonant planet on your galaxy map and can locate one within ~5 minutes
why would something linked in the official community discord for the game be linked if it was bannable
Being mean to other players is bannable
something linked in the discord
what's the difference between gas extractor and atmosphere extractor?
Gas extractor works only on beep deposits.
there's no official discord for NMS
Atmospheres extractor only gets u oxygen
but there's an oxygen extractor
why the hell do you need two of the same thing
This discord is closest u can get to official
how do I power an entire farm of gas extractor underwater with no nearby power hotspot?
Solar panels
U need 2 panels and 1 batttery for evey 50 power to have power 24/7
wdym 50 power? you mean to power 50 gas extractors?
official community discord
idk, I think I typed it pretty clearly the first time, can people not read?
what 50 power then
can people not be nice?
For every 50 power your farm consumes
oh ok
so you had no issues fully reading that, alright
not gonna say more or I'll get warned again
do you not see that you being warned previously as a problem?
i noticed 2 of the same thruster type on my corvette have different stats, how does that work? is it bound to like.... the actual item? or can I manipulate that somehow
the corvette modules basically behave like the standard tech upgrades you can buy on space stations
they also roll from a range of possible stats, so placing the same module twice might result in slightly different stats between them
didnt know it was mb
Is it too late to try the new expedition? I haven’t played in ages and have 0 experience with expeditions

Aren’t expeditions basically a tutorial? I think my main save file should have that no?
not quite, expeditions often come with unique mechanics/ quirks that differ from regular gameplay
in this one all you do is drive a truck around the planet, hauling and recycling waste items in processing plants
I dont think couple of hours would be enough to jump back into the game, I reckon you'll end up frustrated because of stuff falling off the truck while pressured for time to finish
there's also a matter of having to re-learn the game after all the changes / reworks HG brought to the game since the last time you played
so I highly recommend just starting a new save and learning stuff again
Aight thanks for the help!
I noticed I was EXTREMELY overwhelmed when starting my save file, on top of my old base being broken due to it being on a floating island I may start over but I fear I’d waste my time, how easy is it to speedrun into being able to travel as I please with all the QoL like mecha and ships without needing to do the main storyline?
Is the relaxed mode the best for me if I still want to engage with the game?
Thwre’s a cable cloaking device
How is Crystallized Heart obtained? I recently forgot because I haven't played NMS in over a month
Relaxed or creative maybe sure - but some things you will still need to do the story for, such as purple systems.
killing the big corrupted Sentinel quads
the ones that look like armored spiders
they spawn at level 3 or 4 wanted at planets with dissonance detected, those spawn corrupted Sentinels
Thanks
why do some bases always keep the blueprint icon instead of the screenshot i set for them?
what do you do for large quantities of di hydrogen? I constantly look for jelly to refine but it's very rare I can buy some, is there another solid source for it?
The blue crystals on planets? I just grab them as I see them.
i seem to have a lot of it and i don't know why.
do the blue crystals harvest when shot from a starship?
Apparently you can also refine (not craft) dihydrogen into jelly (30:1) then refine it back to dihydrogen (1:40) to get extra for free
that takes forever on normal. and is to painful to bother with execpt in emergencies with survival sized stacking.
The small ones, but not the large ones that need an advanced mining laser
I didn't realize that the ratios are like that...
the small ones do
I was buying jelly and refine it, it do take long time to refine
and it's a pita to buy
However, do note that refining a single unit of Di-hydrogen Jelly from Di-hydrogen requires a full 60 seconds and that Di-hydrogen Jelly only stacks to 20, making this process very slow and tedious if you are looking to produce large quantities of Di-hydrogen
Hmm
I also refined tritium but the ratios are crap
The wiki says for large volumes, buying it in bulk at trade centres/archives is the best method, otherwise just gathering it as you go
Some systems have more in stock like 80 jelly
yeah most jelly I've found was like 40-60 to buy, 20 jelly = 800 di hydrogen, it runs out quickly when converting to the frigate fuel
well don't do that. thats why i have so much. i dont make frigate fuel.
didn't find these quantities, max I've got was ~60
Tried high supply systems?
yep, almost exclusively
Perhaps you need some more fuel efficiency buffs and support vessels?
levelled support frigates can, assuming you are upgrading your freighter even a bit, 5* missions with zero fuel cost.
I do use the oxidiser modules but they only make the missions faster afaik
I have support on every mission but the requirements are still high
I need like 250-300 tonnes for a mission
not 1 support. only support.
but isn't the point is sending other ones too? for variety of stuff you get back?
is there fuel effiency tech for freighter?
the only unique item you get back are from sending 1 living frigate.
so you're saying if I send only support I still get storage augementation?
yes. i do.
start with a mixed fleet. but hire any support frigates that are C and have a 2-3 tonne/ly built in cost. level them to S, fire a few of the specialist ships and hire more support.
Keep a few specialist ships around for flavor. There are 30 ship slots so you can have 1 of each type, but still enough support frigates to saturate all missions with only support.
I usually just add 1-2 support frigates, but I also made lots of fuel (and have a compulsion to gather blue crystals) and a supercharged S-class efficiency module
This means you can send 1 trading ship on a (short) trading expedition and still be 0 fuel cost with 2-4 support frigates.
all my support are a/s but I don't have a lot of them, I was sending one with each mission, I'll fire others and get more support then
just keep going. send extra frigates that arn't S yet to level them.
I send a combat/pirate, dedicated ship, support and mix of exploration/trade
I do that
90% of my fleet is A and S
I will get more support then and have at least 3 of them, combat and a dedicated one, see if that will be better
I didn't know support reduces fuel
i think it's also worth noting you can save on fuel costs with freighter tech upgrades
they'll apply for every expedition you send out
I have everything possible installed, no idea how to get extra tech
there's no additional stuff I can install
the take, as i understood it, was it was the score, rather than the frigate type, that determined rewards.
if you destroy pirate dreadnoughts or salvage tech from derelicts you can get more
so as long as your support ship based expedition has high scores, it can return the full suite of combat, trade etc rewards
I destroy pirate all the time but I get nothing from it except units
should I destroy without boarding?
you cannot let the pirate frigate surrender, you have to kill it before it warps away yeah
otherwise it'll give you units and nothing else
Gotta kill the pirate dreadnaught without breaking the engines
you need to run derelict freighters. the final terminal rewards bulkheads that you can use to expand your ships tech inventory, or frigate upgrade modules that will be a random upgrade to one of your fleet stats when equipped in the freighters tech inventory.
There are portal co-oirdinates to systems that 1. have a very short run to the final terminal, 2. the final terminal gives S class upgrades every time.
didn't know that, I kill engines first
then turrets
then board to take bounty, then destroy
it's an old image but this is what the pirate dreadnought/derelict can drop
killing engines is a good way to practice the rest of the kill, but it reduces reward
The og way when it was only way to get them
ok I avoided doing derelict freighters but I'll get back to that I have some scanners
thanks, that's good to know, I'll stop killing engines and just destroy it
takes me no time to get it done anyways
they can also drop expedition speed tech which can slash your expedition times from 18h~ to about 7h
if you get lucky with supercharged slots i think 2h max is possible
guys i have 2 questions: 1) how can i get the starborn starship? 2)how can i get to Eltiensleen galaxy?
I have 3 adjacent slots on my freighter
is there other way to get superconductor instead of crafting it?
I'll get to work to get some tech
appreciate the help, I wish these things were written somewhere in the wiki
Derelict freighter is an event in space you can only really get by using the locator sold by creepy uncle under the staircase on space stations. The item costs 5m units, then 10, then 15.. resets every week... the final computer offers them, as well as bulkheads (cargo/tech slots)
or maybe they do but I missed it
waht am i supposed to do at this destoyed corvette in space? broke two things but dont see anything else to do with it
yeah I've done some of these but I hate them, most of my luck was the ones with the spawning creepy things so I stopped doing that
can someone help pls
that's crazy I need to start farming tech
1: if you on pc you can play old expedition by changing 1 file
2: you can get taxied there or get there by yourself
once you find a good one, that same layout appears every time, in that same system, as long as there are no moons.
That's all you can do with the broken ones
moons add an extra potential layout
to get the Starborn ship (doesnt matter which one), you need to use mods, save editors, service bot delivery or find a player willing to trade one off
thanks. yes i play on pc but if i do that is there a chance to get banned or something? and also how can i get taxied idk
ah, I didn't even think about it, so I run scanner in the same system multiple times?
some outlaw systems will spawn a pirate dreadnought each time you warp to it, that's how i farmed my upgrades
no you don't get banned for using 3rd party stuff
hmm why the milestone didnt update?
unless you use it to mess with other players
I tried the bot delivery but it wasnt free so..
AS I understand it, the layout is tied to the main planet's code / or to the closest moon if there are moons.
then use other options
for eissentam you can warp to one of the featured bases in the anomaly, the destination info will tell you if it's in the eissentam galaxy
that's too complicated, I was just running it where I bought the scanner
nah you wont get banned and also about taxi, ask someone with corvette to fly through galaxy center to teleport to another galaxy and so on until you reach your destination
awesome thanks.
Do you have any idea how to make discovered poi undiscovered again? I messed up geting a living ship
People have marked the location of "fast" derelicts. I don't know where, but ive heard of it
thanks for help
by any chance do you have the file or do you know where to look?
visit a shitton of similar pois in other places, until (like stations) it falls off the known list
do i just make more debris scaners?
Generates SEASON_DATA_CACHE.JSON files so you can customize and play No Man's Sky expeditions and earn their rewards offline anytime.
for replaying old expeds on PC
there's a guide so don't worry
thanks
Thats the worst case scenario. Was wondering if there is a faster way.
for the living ship the only idea I have
is someone else have to try get this ship
and then trade it off
does anyone have superconductor?
If one players spawns the living ship on crash site. Does the ship turns into living ship for other player? (Probably not)
How much did u visit before it reseted aprox?
Or u just played the game and visited the crash site months later?
Do I need a void egg for every living ship I want to get
Oh
I got one and have just gotten the quest
Do I need to get that exact shop
Or can I go to one I found on reddit
First one u need to get for the mission.
Do i just keep making thes e debris scanners? are ther corvettes that arent broken i nhalf? have been to three and they all broken
They all will be broken. U can get some corvette parts from them
that milestone isnt updating though
i sent a full day spawnign and dismissing new choices elsewhere. not sure how many it was
What choices? Living ships?
i dont understand what it wants me to do it just says to search corvette wrecks and ive searched 3 of them so far
There are elements u can destory on them to get the parts
i have destroys 6 things now
Try using mt visor or ping scan
In expedition there was floating lore log to collect. Idk if it is present in normal game.
will this become a problem if i keep building into the groiund?
or do i need to expand here?
Ground always regenerate at some point
shoudl have placed then even more n the ait
i am on expedition. you had to seearch multiple to find it?
i found it . was pretty far from ship and little thanks for help
Every arcadia wreck should have one
You create a corvette on a space station at the corvette workshop terminal. You will need some parts from the salvaged scrap to make one.
You never find a whole corvette, the entire point is to craft your own.
that's odd; i thought about that, but i guess i was misremembering: what i remembered was that the material should still show as an increase, but the outcome results would state "inherited" on size (meaning it's at max size)
@proper parcel keep one thing in mind: expedition <insert expedition number here> specific stuff, you're mostly on your own when running old expeditions offline - cant expect that people will remember or immediately know what you're referring to, when it comes to an expedition that's no longer live.
we dont really support them - too much to keep track of, especially if it comes to really specific stuff (like getting the data log from a wreck is what completes the milestone)
i'd be more than happy to answer to questions like that via dm
i dont see any harm in asking if im stuck though. someone may remember like they did this time. im not planning on going back to all the expeditions just wanna have access to all the corvette parts. i appreciate youz guys helping. this game leaves a few things really quite vague
to address my original question, apparently pirate systems flat out selling it, at the outlaw station or terminals on planets
may i dm you?
alright i need help understanding this freighter hunting business. i already have a freighter and done all the story missions inc the autophage stuff. Ive been warping around pirate systems non stop all day long and have yet to find the freighter shape i want. all these online guides claim go here you get the battle every time but i go there and no battle. 8 warps later i get a battle in the wrong system. what the heck?
second question: lets say i find the shape i want. but its b class. ive got to land in the freighter and it saves the game whenever you land or leave cockpit so even if i save before the battle, its gonna get overwritten?
i've seen some trade terminals some 40+ jellies - finding one like that should get you going for a long time
I would just search systems until i found a trade outpost selling it then drop a named base computer there. Although i dont know if markets rotate over time. ive never watched long enough
that what I was doing up until now, but pirates sell it no need to refine, yay!
yeah sure.
- the simplest way to go about this is: always exit ship in station before warping out, until the next battle triggers
- when it does, if it's not the freighter you want, reload restore point, and warp to a diff gek/korvax/vykeen system
- repeat step 2 till you find a system with a freighter you like
- capital freighters can only start spawning after 2 completed rescue events
- "guides claim that battle triggers everytime": this is most likely only referring to some t3 conflict and some outlaw systems that always trigger the pirate freighter battle, after its spawn requirements are met
- pirate freighter can only start spawning after completing 2 rescue battles and owning a freighter
examples, minor settlement and regular space station
i get plenty of pirate dreadnaught fights. ive been doing them all day. when i go to a claimed "every time" system, no battle. i warp elsewhere? battle.
im stuck on step 2. land on freighter = save. cant reload.
yep that's what I was doing and refining, but recently had like 4-5 systems that didn't have any jelly, so I asked if there's another method, so now checking the outlaw station I checked with the merchant and he had 600 di hydrogen for me no refining need, as I'm going through the minor settlements I already bough 600 more, so jelly is one method and pirates are another good one
with all the must-own-freighter requirements for pirate freighters, you'd think that summoning your own freighter would lay down effective suppressing fire or something to aid in the capture
land on freighter = save. cant reload.
dont use a corvette or dont land on the freighter (you can exit seat, open hatch, aim visor at freighter to see stats - but you need to make sure that your autosave is done very recently before exiting seat). personally, i'd recommend not using a corvette, much simpler
when i go to a claimed "every time" system, no battle
sounds like you're either portaling to the wrong coords or even in the wrong galaxy
OMFG i finaly found the answer. ive been going crazy over this. WHY DO NONE OF THE GUIDES MENTION THAT CORVETTE AUTOSAVE BUT NORMAL STARSHIP DONT ARRGHHH
do you know.
...
how many friggen guides ive read? SMH
Things get a bit buggy when your freighter gets involved, especially if its a dreadnaught.
well, because.. some guides have been written way before corvettes, and also the corvette method seems to be a little unreliable ime
what corvette method lol there is none
Exactly. Corvettes are a relatively new thing. Been around for about 6 months i think
the corvette method is to never land on a freighter - you just park the ship in space, exit seat, goto hatch, open hatch, then use your analysis visor to see the freighter class that dropped without ever landing on the freighter
your save will get overwritten as soon as you exit corvette seat no matter what. you can just be sitting in space not moving and leave chair to check storage. bam save.
park in space and exit seat = autosave.
reloading autosave made before the restore point, instead of reloading the restore point, triggers the fight again
no, restore point.
like all ships.
right okay wrong word. so the corvette method is to hope the autosave doesnt trigger at the wrong moment?
afaik, you basically warp in, and you wait for that autosave to trigger. after it autosaves, you exit seat. this makes it so you can still reload autosave, that has the battle event state on basically
yikes ok
Normally have 2 save points, corvette usually triggers the autosave, but some other things will trigger the second restore point that doesn't get overwritten as fast.
my crovette is strong and comfy for taking out dreadnaught. i will try this method thank you
you basically never go for it until you see that s-class on the visor
still dont know why im not getting these battles everyone claims will happen every 5 warps >_>
it's not
every 5 warps
to be able to force trigger a rescue battle on any inhabited system, you need 3h of unpaused gameplay and 5 ship warps since the last battle
-#
to view info below, enable embeds
Any action that brings up a menu, dialogue choice or otherwise halts gameplay. This includes interacting with any terminal, NPC, ruin etc. in any system.
- While in the Galaxy Map.
- While the game is loading a new system (e.g. warping, teleporting, black hole).
- While the game is paused.
- When the game is not the focused window (when Alt + Tabbed away from)
- When the game is closed.

i deffo get them more often than every 3hrs
because there are some systems that always trigger the battle, regardless of those reqs
ive revisited a system that didnt trigger first visit but did on the 2nd or 3rd and so on. it seems super random to me
maybe i should be writing this down
no, something else's going on there
20% of outlaw systems and 10% of level 3 conflict systems always trigger a dreadnaught battle.
yeah my experience doesnt seem to be lining up with everyone else
if a system has that property to always trigger the battle, and you meet the spawn reqs for pirate dreadnought, it will trigger it, every single time, if you ship warp in
spawn reqs being 5 warps since last battle? 3hrs of continuous play since last load or last battle or this session?
because like i said, getting more than 1 battler per 3hrs. more like 4 in 3hrs
no, spawn reqs for pirate freighter being owning a freighter and having completed 2 rescue battle events with that char
this is clearly systems that have that property enabled imo.
i'll concede the possibility that you have options/difficulty/space combat set to highest?
and perhaps you theorise ive lost my mind after countless warps and battles? not the worst theory tbh
yeah all on survival default except inventory stacks on normal
oh i think i upped space battles too
yeah space combat = hostile
then i'm starting to think that space combat is decreasing freighter rescue battle event cooldown
you're not the first person i see experiencing this
but really, if you're using such a t3 conflict or outlaw system - then whatever the cooldown may be, it wont matter
now
the weirdest thing would be that higher difficulty settings would be messing with that
im picky about my shape. i want that massive venator resurgent
probably still works - euclid
lots of YT vids claiming they found scripted. maybe this is something i need to try on a fresh session
well, with the exception of those systems, rescue battle events are all scripted - with the requirements for the script to trigger being 3h of unpaused gameplay and 5 ship warps since the last
there being a scripted event is what allows us, to reroll those stats, redo the script
i really REALLY wish id saved the location because at one point earlier today i was bouncing between 2 systems and getting a battle every time, but the shape was always the same 🙁
consistent, since only 1 capital freighter design per inhabited system
like
i defeat it. i bonce. no wait. and bam another battle
there was no cooldown at all
so im surprised to hear there is supposed to be a cooldown
like we already mentioned, there are some t3 conflict and some outlaw systems, that have a property that forces a rescue battle event to trigger every single time you warp in
regardless of the scripted battle requirements being met or not
2x right next to eachother? crazy
yes
i need one of those addresses >_<
plenty of those have been found by now, i remember finding a pair like a week or two after they came out
you can always use NMSCE reddit or website to find such things
this one was found by someone i trust, it should be working just fine https://nmsce.com/preview?i=089a7cd8-b2a3-4d81-ba56-40f3865633192
just remember though
drinking elixr and smashing the address in >_>
@wanton shell if you're going to do color customizing your freighter, the exterior bridge 3d model will remain of the same default color, cannot be changed
Pisses me off to this day 😄 Perhaps it's time for me to also hunt for something new
definitely check out nmsce
tons of them in there
and even if they're not one of those systems that always triggers the battle
that's alright
simply meet the reqs to trigger it yourself
drop and claim a base comp in the system, always exit ship to update restore point before warping out till the next battle, when it does reload and teleport to base comp, warp to uncharted system nearby, update restore point again, and warp to target system
i remember when i wasn't aware of this yet, and rolled my first freighter for half na hour, customised it and everything, and then i suddenly saw that the bridge color stands out like a sore thumb and doesn't match the rest of the design 😂
glad i got told here. very glad. username checks out btw lol

Anyone know a solution to the”game crash every hour since acquiring dreadnought “issue?
I already removed all bling & rooms except essentials. And i dismiss freighter when not using it directly.
Still crashes every 3 hour and always when engaging sentinels.
i didnt know about nmsce. ive just been warping around pirate systems
Hi bk
any ideas?
what platform are you on?
Xbox one
hmm.. i have a couple, but would need time to investigate
under graphics settings, do you have an option called graphics priority?
Yes it is set to performance
have you tried perhaps changing that to quality i believe, and closing+relaunching game?
Yes it was on quality when the problem started.
I tried everything “normal “
Yeah always restart the entire game, no matter what graphical settings you change. I've noticed the game has a bug sometimes that drastically lowers my prefromance after i do some changes there
and it's always fixed after the restart
I rather not swap but I begin to think it’s the only solution.
S class dreadnought 😢
Hey all. So I’ve just got to the part where I have to investigate a black hole and I’ve gone to the galaxy map and set route to black hole but I’m a little confused with how to proceed. Can anyone assist?
have you tried to power cycle the console? does this happen with a different save?
Sure, can you be more specific tho?
what's the exact issue?
In the marked system, you should see a little black dot with a coloured swirl around it. Go over to it.
It may be hard to see if it is far away or behind a planet, so you might need to move around to find it
Oh nvm 🤦🏻♀️ I didn’t see the button under the system that said warp.
Yeah 😄 no worries
I was trying to get to another system. First timer here 😂
Different save? No. I only have this issue on my main with the dreadnought.
Power cycle? How?
Sorry English isn’t my first language
power cycling is basically turning off console, unplugging the power cord for 5minutes or so, then plugging it back in.
also, i'd recommend not leaving console in "rest mode"
but frankly, using the "reset/reboot" option is just as good
Ok silly question but what is a pillared planet? Is it as obvious as it sounds?
Ah. Yes i unplugged several times. It is better now than before but still every 3hour it crashes. Almost like the cache is full and just force close
its a wierd planet with a particular type of ... glitch you can collect. wierd stone block things
Safe for a noob? 😂 sounds ominous
pillared is one of the synonyms for weird biome, shards subtype. on every exotic biome subtype, there's a collectible/base decoration called stabilized reality glitch. as long as we have 1, we can always build more
wierd planets are usually the safest planets
no storms
one ... creature thats never carnivorus because its some kind of blob.
i don't even remember meeting sentinels on them typically?
the biome is never hazardous either.
Ah I see it now. Thankfully landed on a building
Buy yourself some S-class hazard protection modules as soon as possible and you won't have to worry about the planet conditions as much
they can have corrupted or even aggressive sentinels, so i guess it's just a bit of observation bias
thought it might be
I landed next to what I can only describe as a giant hamster wheel.
Anyways I got a message on my ship screen “boundary failing” what does this mean?
def one of the safest environments otherwise, it's almost like seeing "paradise"
“boundary failing” what does this mean?
basically, mostly for immersion
specially if its the 'shroom glitch
it's not actually going to let you fall between boundaries, dont worry
do we have a list of required tasks to unlock all the Colossus cosmetics?
i adore hydrogardens, they're the true paradises for me lol
see image
Hydrogardens?
Type of glitch/wierd planet
When I scan and look at the giant hamster wheel it says that the building is the boundary failure. 🤔
They are indeed nice . Shame that they dont have denser foilage. Getting their assest in qs shop would be nice.
boundary failure lore building yeah; there's a terminal on one of its sides; the lore read there is quite interesting, if you want to know more about your exosuit voice 😉
31 lore entries
ah those ones, yeah
Oh cool. Thankyou. I love reading all those bits
there will always be lots of those buildings on planets with gold on the resource list
wish we could activate those failing lore buildings. they look like portals to somewhere interesting.
Thanks for the heads up
This was my first thought. Especially as my Fauna here says “not of this planet”
yeah, when people see it for the first time, they always expect something more out of them
I see them more as a cool photo op.
i like to fly through them at full speed
I’m not that good a pilot yet
you're also going to need some manuverability upgrades for your ship
I’m more likely to hit a few of these pillars before I got to it
There is a lot I need 🤣 I’m playing on relaxed mode so I can try and get used to everything and even in this mode I’m a little lost.
i know, don't worry, you'll spend 1k+ hours in this game 🙂
Here's an odd question - I have a base that is extended to about a 1000u radius with the base computer in the approximate middle. Can I move that base computer to somewhere else within that 1k radius without losing part of the base?
I believe this. One minute it was 9pm then I blinked and it was 2am this morning
yeah, can't help it
I did for my first base
I took the long route and ran with it though
What do you mean by losing part of the base? Are you expanding upwards by any chance?
Not upwards, I wanted to move the computer so that the teleport in location would change
unless thats based on if I have a teleport station in the base
hmm, i'm not sure
what keywords indicate a "trash" planet?
The teleporter is best for that. Also be warned. The ship you fly will land next to the teleport with you. I found out the hard way so mine was half in my building.
Why did they make it so the spaceship can land inside things 🤦🏻♀️
Yeah, I am noticing that my corvette lands on top and I cannot build until I move it
Salvageable Scrap
Make a portal as soon as you can and give it a safe room away from your base. Thats the best way imo so far
This can be mitigated now, by using a Corvette. They will always spawn hovering mid-air when you teleport
My friend’s husband has one and showed us but he’s not explained much more to me about how I build one. So I’m working my way slowly to getting one. 🤞
The area used for making them is situated behind the regular landing pads on a space station. Just a bit down the entrance tunnel
I found this last night (when I was meant to be sleeping) my plan now is to carry on with storyline and collect as much stuff as I can for a day. Start working on funds and parts.
I got some upgrades for my ship last night. The moderate ones. Only just remembered. So I’ve attached them now. Do I need to remove anything? Or do they stay alongside my current ones?
is it usually cheaper to find and buy a ship with most of its upgraded cargo or do it yourself? it's hard to tell from the prices
I strongly advise to make yourself one, as soon as possible, as it will benefit you greatly in your early days. You can save on launch thrusters fuel, as the corvette can be "parked" mid air, you can use the autopilot function, etc.
And it's very easy and fast to make it. As soon as you locate a planet with "Salvageable Scrap" in its description, just land there and start looking for the yellow "wifi" icon, dig up as much of those modules as you want, return to the station and start making your corvette. If you dig up enough parts, you can have your entire corvette built for free, as you can trade your parts for others, that you need
You will never find ships with most of its cargo slots available. That said, after a certain point it's absolutely cheaper to buy other ships and scrap them for Storage Augmentations and use those to upgrade the cargo and tech slots on your ships
i mean ive found ships that had all save for like 5?
Great advice. Thank you 🙂 appreciated.
The most you will find is somewhere in the 30s, when S class ships can have 100-120
ah. ok
are S class freighters out there in the wild? im shopping for an A class I like rn
Max cargo/tech ships don't exist in the wild, they always have to be upgraded
as long as you don't have any red exclamation marks next to your modules and they don't say "techonolgy overloaded" you don't have to remove anything
Yes, S class ships of any type exist in the wild, you just have to find them. Spawn chance is based on system economy
Perfect. Just looked none so far. So all good. 👍
is there anything to look for in freighters, other than cosmetic preferences and the obvious like ship class and slots
Looks and class if you're going for a specific class. Freighter stats don't really matter
wym going for a specific class
You can't upgrade the class on a freighter
like just the alphabetical class? i just assumed more better letter
interesting
can you adjust the cosmetics of a freighter at all?
Some of the coloring can be changed on some of the freighters, otherwise no
ic ic
to add on you can only change the engine glow and paintjob, anything else including the model type/size is fixed
What happens if I get sucked into a black hole? I ask because I wasn’t paying attention and got too close. 😱
You go about 6000 ly closer to the core, many times that around the core, and get spit out in a yellow system elsewhere
So not actually going to kill me or anything drastic. 😮💨
No, nothing like that
i never really noticed freighter size, is there a lot of variance? does size have any in game impact
None at all. Build area and max cargo/tech is identical
is there a lot of difference in overall freighter size? bc ima be going for a smaller one if that's the case lol
if you want to get particular, certain types of freighters start with more tech/cargo slots, but nothing beyond that
is there any way to tell their types apart other than visually
nah if you never looked at the outside of your freighter you wouldn't ever know the difference, they function identically
only the pirate dreadnoughts have a red-lit interior but that's as far as it goes
you can opt to look online for other models people have found before you make your choice
gud point ty
is there a way to duplicate the void egg i have
You'd have to look online
If it's anything other than Void Egg, it won't do any good to even try, though
yeah thanks
where can I find guide to get freighter ships? I found some old freighter coordinates, teleported there but can't start a freighter battle. But if I warp to nearest pirate system it automatically triggers freighter battle. It's been more than 5 hours since I last seen the freighter battle and I've done more than 5 warps to various systems to trigger fight but still couldn't
If the battle is not triggering, you're missing something from the requirements. They are quite rigid. Additionally, taking a portal or teleporting into a system will never cause a freighter battle to spawn, you have to warp into the system. If you know the system you want the battle to spawn in, warp to a nearby uncharted system, save, then warp back
Yes, that's what I'm doing. I teleported to that system, warped to various systems near and created a save point. Then if I try to warp into needed system I don't get a freighter fight, but if I reload save and go to pirate system fight happens. I read post with coordinates and it only said to read guide, but when I open the guide it says it is outdated (it is from times when you couldn't warp out of the system you teleported in)
20% of outlaw systems spawn the battle every time, so that's why the battle spawns there. You haven't warped or had enough played time since the last time you encountered a freighter battle
anyone else having issues boarding derelict freighters spawned from ESS? the ship spawns, but the door won't open after interacting with the airlock terminal
Also, if the guide for the freighter is old enough that it mentions portal interference, it's likely not the same model spawning anymore
I see I'll try to wait then

No Man's Sky - Gameplay Event timers
Any action that brings up a menu, dialogue choice or otherwise halts gameplay. This includes interacting with any terminal, NPC, POI etc. in any system.
- While in the Galaxy Map.
- While the game is loading a new system (e.g. warping, teleporting, black hole).
- While the game is paused.
- When the game is not the focused window (when Alt + Tabbed away from)
- When the game is closed.
I also noticed I dont have an active ESS in inventory after landing, even using another ESS after docking doesn't let me open the doors
I have seen it mentioned by others, but I do not know if there is a definitive fix, sorry
Damn gotta look for other one. Thank you
silly question, can you just load your corvette up with all kinds of trash and fly to the incinerator instead?
No
mechanic prevents it?
It won't travel in the corvette
Guys is there a way to free look inside the cockpit?
like freecam your head to look left and right while driving
Hold alt
thanks
are robot animals rare or smthn
Yes. You'll typically find them in uncharted systems
alright cool I found a few for the first time and was pretty surprised
what if you load the laden colossus onto the corvette?
You can't do that
maybe I've been looking at glitch pictures
Now I’m looking at the corvettes, rather than asking what’s the point of freights I should ask is there anything that I should do with them? I already became rich thanks to them and I strayed from them as I’m more of a nomad who wants to explore 24/7 but is there a use that I still need to keep in mind?
Like anything in the game, it's totally up to you. Couple of advantages:
With the matter beam installed, you can access and build from any installed storage units, anywhere in the same system as your freighter
Summon exocraft anywhere without taking up a suit tech slot
I pressed ride on my dragon and left the atmosphere
as soon as I pressed ride
Is that normal?
are tornadoes on gas giants aim for me or they just randomly flying around?
they spawn close by to entertain you
No
Unless it's like colossal or something but I've never used one too big
It’s colossal
Then that might be why
I don't go above 2.5m with mine
mostly because it doesn't look right/make sense when they're large
do settlement inhabitants spawn on extreme worlds? i have yet to see any even though the overview says that i do
can there be any fauna on gas giants?
They should have the same presence as they do on other worlds, but not fully sure
settlements on gas giants yes or no?
Of course not, those count as uninhabited, just like dead/weird
they're even less inhabited than those I believe, as they lack monoliths and other ancient structures
Does supercharging affect technologies like the pulse drive and hyperdrive modules themselves?
Yes, but less than their upgrades
though pulse engine has Pulse Drive Power (pulse speed), unlike it's upgrades
and the sentinel versions of both of those actually have stats greater than their upgrades
Trying to build my base and the roof tiles are only red so can't place them. Anyone have any ideas what to do?
A screenshot of the issue might help
Do echo locators need anything hyperspecific to work? I've traveled to like 3-4 dissonant systems and it keeps being unable to find anything
The dissonant system needs to be populated, and the dissonant planet(s) in that system cannot have Gold or Rusted Metal as a resource
That'll be what I'm missing then, as I've been going to unpopulated systems
There's a minimum distance for placing them, have you tried standing a little further back?
finally unlocked purple systems, what else do they have except stellar resource, gas giants and waterworlds?
Nothing all that different
alright thanks
Actually lots https://nomanssky.miraheze.org/wiki/Purple_Star_Systems#Unique_Attributes
Like 10 new terrain types, which most of them involve tons of mountains contrasted with flat areas (alongside the terrain types from the planets added in Origins able to be on any planet in them, as well as the regular ones). Also oceans that can be up to 450u deep on some worlds, and rare-ish giant planets that aren't gas giants
Did you adjust your system clock for any reason?
No but it’s offline and incorrect rn
That's likely why
So if it goes back to normal (the time) it should fix itself?
Probably, though it may cause other issues if you have missions in progress
Don’t think I do
dayum
Also, moons having water
normal moons don't have water?
Yes, moons in non-purple systems never have water
alright thanks
also, planets in purple systems cannot have rings
Purple systems have the new, improved terrain generation
Yes, I described that. Less "improved" and just more types, including some new types that do things that weren't done before
second purple system and found ying yang moons
also about mountains
are they normal or painful like in normal systems?
i mean in normal systems there planets with only mountains and between them there always huge holes
Way better for actual traversal
why does one planet have both red and white atmosphere colors?
what do you mean?
Oh, upper is the true sky color
also what does chromatic fog means?
Biome name of red/green/blue worlds
but it's purple
isn't "chromatic fog" just means that there's a monochromatic filter applied?
How do I find a traveller because I’ve been to so many space stations and I can’t find any
They're not common. If you want glyphs, finishing the story is the most straightforward way to get them, and is required for current endgame content
I just want the glyphs tho, I’m not really doing story a lot
Here's some decent examples of what they tend to look like
do it then. it takes about 4-5 hours if you stay on track
Finishing the story is not the end of the game, it's basically a big tutorial
Biome name doesn't indicate any details other than which biome it is, besides "Paradise Planet/Moon" of course
red/green/blue worlds can have very minimal or even fully lack a color filter, but usually have them
paradise giant?
Yes, as I said before there are giant planets that are not Gas Giants, these are rarer than Gas Giant systems. These giants can be any biome, except for waterworld (and lava/volcanic due to a bug)
Also just a quick question, every video I have search up is from the old nms before the updated space stations, are the travelers spawn chances still the same?
