[stuck berry]

which is only default on Creative

[viral dagger]

|| ive got to the point where i unlock the second galaxy ||

wait

why did i spoiler that

everyone knows that theres more galaxies

[viral dagger]

oh

MIGHT be why i havent found any

😭

[stuck berry]

That is after the main story
unless you are mistaking star systems for galaxies

[strong bronze]

what am i supposed to do with a hyperspace navigation station? i got a transmission but it was just random stuff

[viral dagger]

Yeah, i think the difficulty thing was my problem

Ill do ot tomorrow tho

[stuck berry]

Just be wowed by it and move on

[strong bronze]

damn i used an item to get to it aswell i was hoping thered be a reward

[stuck berry]

most random space encounters follow this, some you shoot at, some you talk to, some you fly through, some you just look at

[viral dagger]

Do yall listen to music while you play games? If so what do you listen to while playing nms

[undone kayak]

could someone help me out i have no idea what this is telling me

is mechanical gonna be good against it or if i send my mechanical out is it gonna get obliterated

[strong bronze]

how do i repair one of my frigates which is critically damaged

[viral dagger]

uhh

[stuck berry]

It's telling you that that creature will kick mechanical ones' asses, but will do way less damage to radioactive ones

[viral dagger]

dock your ship

maybe?

[stuck berry]

Board it, then follow the waypoints to the repair spots

you can teleport to it from the fleet management menu too

[undone kayak]

and that fire is gonna do the most damage ok ty gang

[haughty pasture]

every star that doiesnt have the anomoly says i need more fuel

[thin frost]

Are type advantages consistent across species, or does it vary each time?

[stuck berry]

Then your hyperdrive requires more fuel

in Normal, I believe it requires 20% by default to warp

in survival I think it requires 25%

[haughty pasture]

Im in survival for my first playthrough

And im going through the questline and I cant warp

[stuck berry]

then craft and insert another Warp Cell

[lost jay]

can i get the infographic with all the freighter desings? cant find it

[stuck berry]

you need 25% fuel to warp in survival, without upgrades

[lost jay]

ty

[stuck berry]

Yes, as all of the same species of creature are the same type

which for most depends on the biome of planet they're, but for some it's fully consistent per their creature type or "genus" as some call it

like how robot antelopes and walking buildings are always mechanical, plant cats and bonecats are always tropical

[thin frost]

I mean in terms of Tropical creatures being weak against Toxic creatures.

[stuck berry]

That's 100% consistent

[wet sigil]

The chances of S rank is the highest in outlaw systems, so most S rank hunters use outlaw systems

[zenith flax]

is the 257th galaxy real? i think it was called Yilsrussimil

[stuck berry]

not real whatsoever

other than in name generation

[zenith flax]

oof

[stuck berry]

attempts to save edit to it in the vanilla game will always auto-correct to within valid galaxy values before loading completes

[modern pawn]

is there a way to bookmark/pin certain systems and planets?

[stuck berry]

this happens after the galaxy name is loaded, so the galaxy temporarily displays as Yismuwhatever/259gazillion until you warp or save and reload but is either Euclid or Odyalutai

[zenith flax]

whats the easiest way to find portals?

[stuck berry]

!faq-portal @zenith flax

[modern pawn]

space anomaly

[tulip dust]

-# to view info below, enable embeds

Locating a Portal

1. Obtain the race relic item to give to a Monolith, [see this post](#nms-questions message);
2. Locate a Monolith, [see this post](#nms-questions message);
3. Interact with the same Monolith twice to locate Portal, [see this post](#nms-questions message).

📚 Notes:

• Portals don't have to be unlocked via any quest.
• To fully use the portal network, the player must unlock all 16 portal glyphs and purple star systems.
  • Run !faq-portalglyphs and !faq-purplesystems in #bot-spam to learn more.
• A portal is not the same as a teleporter. (see image )
• For planets in uncharted systems, obtain the glyph address of that planet via photomode, and portal to it from another system.
  

Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[wet sigil]

No, can only place a base there and name the base to something that's tells you about the system

[stuck berry]

This does not assist in locating portals

there is however a Teleporter aboard the Space Anomaly, which is not the same thing

[modern pawn]

thx, would be so QOL Tough

[modern pawn]

oh though they were lol😭

[stuck berry]

The best way to do so is to place and claim a Base Computer, which allows you to always teleport back to it via any teleporter

You can then name this and even set a photo using the base computer

[thin frost]

Important to note also: Portals only traverse within a galaxy, whereas teleporters will work between galaxies

[lost jay]

do star brambles grow on "tropical" planets?

idk if thats the same as lush

[stuck berry]

Yes, they are the plant resource of lush worlds

[zenith flax]

final question, are any of the 256 galaxies considered unique?

(not counting the 256th ones weird way of getting to it)

[stuck berry]

That's a name that can refer to lush worlds #nms-commands message

[lyric venture]

Is hijacked laser faster on sentinels multitool? I got one but don’t feel a difference tbh

[stuck berry]

but also Swamp/Marsh worlds can have Tropical as a name for some reason

[thin frost]

They're all unique, but I don't know if any are considered more special than any other

[zenith flax]

😭

[stuck berry]

Euclid Galaxy is unique for being the galaxy that all players start in. Kikolgallr, Eissentam and Isdoraijung are somewhat special for having featured bases in them to reach them at any time. That's the only true uniqueness to them I'd say

[zenith flax]

oof

thx though

[stuck berry]

The galaxies' contents are not special other than aligning with the chances given by their type

[modern pawn]

is finding planets with dissonance rare/useful?

[stuck berry]

which is just biome chances in yellow systems, or sentinel/extreme storm chances for harsh ones

[stuck berry]

Not too rare, they display their presence from the Galaxy Map

[zenith flax]

not really rare, you can easily find them by looking at purple systems

[stuck berry]

They are useful to get sentinel ships, sentinel multi-tools etc, which aren't hard at all to get if you know how to #nms-commands message

[thin frost]

I wonder which galaxy is the least populated. There's likely more people in the 256th galaxy than ones in the middle of the list, after all.

[modern pawn]

oh damn i swear i can't understand anything on there😂

[modern pawn]

i mean at the end every galaxy is like only discovered for a fraction or less, but wouldn't like to stay in euclid

[zenith flax]

i guess the above wasnt the final question, i have 2 more, sorry

whats the easiest way of aquiring alot of nanites?

what do i need to do to get more living frigates?

[urban citrus]

What do the stars mean when im looking at the system stats

[wet sigil]

I would say anything in-between #11 and #255 inclusive would be very sparsely populated,

[thin frost]

The stars are the economy level. They don't affect much, other than what is available at the trade terminals

[urban citrus]

Oh ok

[modern pawn]

for nanites its a nanite farm if you want you can add me i have a planet where a ton of ppl build nanite farms for everyone, you just use a mining beam to mine mold ot whatever its called tehn you refine it into nanites, you can ofc build a nanite farm yourself though

[wet sigil]

They also dictate odds of ranks naturally spawning in those economies

[wet sigil]

E.g. s rank cannot spawn in level 1 economy systems,. except those that ignore it (exotics and living frigates, for example)

[urban citrus]

This stuff

How does my brother have a settlement??? Like he's the mayor of it or somethin

[modern pawn]

i have a dumb question can u build sodium farms? i keep running out of it

[wet sigil]

You will get a quest after warping a few times, if I am not mostaken

[urban citrus]

Alright

[wet sigil]

You can buy them from galactic trade terminals

[grand bane]

Is no man's sky's xeno arena going to be released for the ninteno switch 1?

[modern pawn]

can't find them there either, bad luck ig a farm fixes everything

[stuck berry]

You can indeed do so, as it is one of the 5 secondary minerals that can be listed on planets #nms-questions message

[undone kayak]

Meant to respond to this but usually I just put on something chill or upbeat like a pop playlist and just vibe

[grand bane]

Also, Nintendo told me this:

[stuck berry]

We believe so, like all updates so far

[grand bane]

Ah

[errant moth]

The only time an update was explicitly said to not be for switch 1 so far was settlements iirc

[wet sigil]

Just bear in mind that corvettes took a while for switch 1 to get, so it's anyone's guess whrn

[wet sigil]

My apologies, I believe they only show up when goods availability setting is set on abundant

[strong bronze]

what are these outlines

[wet sigil]

Adjacency bonus

[strong bronze]

should i make everything i can connect then?

[wet sigil]

Always

[stuck berry]

All technology of the same type connects, granting a ~6% boost per touching module

so a module with all four sides being touched by similar tech receives a ~24% boost

[limpid echo]

ok the quest told me to go a specific system to find an atlas station
i went to the system it marked but it's giving me no further guidance and just keeps telling me to open my galaxy map
am i just supposed to roam until it shows up?

[wet sigil]

You need to follow the atlas icon on your HUD when you are in that system and fly towards

[urban citrus]

Are there any others than this?

[limpid echo]

i don't have one

[urban citrus]

Pirate dreadnaught

[strong bronze]

can it give a bonus to everything? some stats wont change with or without connecting

[limpid echo]

the only marker it's giving me is in the galaxy map

[acoustic relic]

I got this today and it's so sick

[urban citrus]

But is it the only variation?

[acoustic relic]

I was wondering though where the pirate frigate went

Im guessing since I've encountered it 3 times (it looked the same)

[wet sigil]

Adjacency bonuses are not reflected in the tooltip, but if you check your weapons tooltip DPS it will change

[stuck berry]

The stats displayed will never show the improvements, only the final stats

[stuck berry]

Pirate Dreadnoughts always have the same shape

[strong bronze]

so the bonus is there it just wont show me

[wet sigil]

That's the only pirate dreadnought model

[strong bronze]

i see

[urban citrus]

Shit

Its hideous

[stuck berry]

their only variations are in color and stats/supercharged slot layout

[urban citrus]

Its like half a potato

[stuck berry]

the former can be changed later to an extent

[limpid echo]

sitting in the system it marked this is the only thing it's giving me relevant to it
the only markers i have in space are my bases and the space station

[acoustic relic]

What does it mean when u negotiate a term with the pirate admiral and it says either claim the ship or get tribute whats the tribute you get

[stuck berry]

It should direct you to a star system that has an Atlas Interface

which is it's own kind of space station

[limpid echo]

im already there, but it stopped directing me once i got here

[stuck berry]

The tribute is units and stuff

[wet sigil]

Just some gold and silver ores

[acoustic relic]

Is it alot or no?

If u dont want tribute what do u do with it besides claiming

[stuck berry]

claim tribute

or leave and get nothing

despite the text, destroying a surrendered pirate dreadnought gives nothing

[acoustic relic]

I was about to destroy the one i found

Are you meant to save the civilian ship because it takes some time to destroy the hull

[wet sigil]

If you want the destruction rewards, you should never let them surrender

[acoustic relic]

And by that time the civilian ship is dead

[wet sigil]

Are you chasing after the torpedo's?

[stuck berry]

Then destroy the fuel cells instead

which is way faster depending on your ship's firepower

[acoustic relic]

Yea i destroyed those after destroying the shield and half of the hull

[stuck berry]

destroying all of the fuel cells makes it begin fleeing or surrender if it's hyperdrive is destroyed

[wet sigil]

Don't chase after torpedo's, use that time to damage their hull instead

[haughty pasture]

Should I buy the black market things and sell them at space stations?

[limpid echo]

yea idk, im here
map says it's here
but it's not giving me anything

[acoustic relic]

Ok tell me if my order is wrong but I first destroy the warp drive engine and then shield then hull (will skip torpedos)

[stuck berry]

that is a way to make units

[wet sigil]

If you want to destroy the dreadnought for the destruction rewards, do not touch the engines

[acoustic relic]

Alr

[viral dagger]

You said you have a dreadnought yes? What class is yours?

[wet sigil]

Look on your ship's HUD, there should be an atlas icon, fly towards that, if you don't see it, turn your ship around and look for it

[strong bronze]

does it matter which shape they are in as long as they all connect?

[wet sigil]

S CLASS

[limpid echo]

i looked around all over, no waypoints other than previously mentioned

[viral dagger]

Was it hard to find an s class?

[wet sigil]

Correct, though you generally want them as blocky shaped rather than line shaped as much as possible

[viral dagger]

Or are they all s classes

[stuck berry]

The shape matters only for maximizing the amount of sides that they are touching

[wet sigil]

Not with guaranteed fight systems

[stuck berry]

and which ones are maximized in adjacency

for weapons, prioritize the main weapon, then the upgrades, then the blueprint

[viral dagger]

ok so its not guaranteed

[wet sigil]

Do you have atlas mission set to active?

[limpid echo]

yea

[viral dagger]

one last question, are you able to walk around most of the length of the ship?

[stuck berry]

Absolutely not, like any freighter it's just the small hangar/bridge area

[viral dagger]

aight

[strong bronze]

is 3 in an L shape better than 3 in a line?

[wet sigil]

That doesn't matter for a 3

For a 4, a square would be better

[stuck berry]

The area is visualized here, as this size with the hangar area beneath

[viral dagger]

cool

[wet sigil]

@stuck berry any chance you can give a hand here? 8 am not at my computer

[strong bronze]

is this okay? (the mining ones are far apart so they can be supercharged)

[wet sigil]

Yeah you would need to unlock more tech slots but that's as good as you can really make it

Ps this is my dreadnought

#nms-legacy-ships message

But it's not in a guaranteed systems, so it's trickier to get

[strong bronze]

DAMNNNNNNNN

[wet sigil]

I was after it's 1x4 layout

[strong bronze]

how do i get more tech slots?

[wet sigil]

Cargo bulkheads

[strong bronze]

wait they can go into tech

...

no way

[wet sigil]

Yes, just like starship storage augmentation and exosuit cargo upgrades

[strong bronze]

it always defaults to the cargo slots so i just thought it was only cargo damn

[strong bronze]

WHAT!!!!!!!!

[zenith flax]

ive just been given stacks of fusion ignitors and stasis devices, is this a scam thing?

im on the space anomaly

[stuck berry]

I wish I knew, I'd say just do another mission in the meantime or try saving and reloading or teleporting away and back or smth

[stuck berry]

Just a generous player, they either have a farm for them or crafted them in creative mode or duplicated them via a glitch or save edited

[zenith flax]

and then they disappeared...

welp, my units now

are there living corvettes?

[strong bronze]

whats a quick way of getting cargo bulkheads?

[stuck berry]

Doing derelict freighters and choosing to fabricate a bulkhead at the end

this of course costs a lot of units to buy the emergency signal scanners, so it can be good to buy one each day to get them at their cheapest amount

[zenith flax]

its been awhile since i did the autophage quests, how does one find them again?

[stuck berry]

Use your Polyphonic Core to ping an Autophage Camp, then go to it and Scan to reveal the hidden Autophage units

this can be done on any inhabited world

[zenith flax]

thx

[strong bronze]

i see

[mossy cape]

If you farm Interceptors you will make a huge amount of cash and some ship storage augmentation modules. You can use the cash from about 3 interceptors to buy a slot on a ship OR buy an S class ship for less than that and scrap it for one or more augmentation modules. Also check missions in non-pirate stations. They often have a mission that gives a ship augment. Focus on getting increased exosuit storage though. You only need a few extra technology slots on a ship especially if you only have one or two weapons. If you are REALLY ticked off about selling augments you could get one from any method then use the duplication glitch to make more.

[wet sigil]

Basically the cargo bulkheads at the end of derelict freighter is the only reward that is worth getting, since it's a pita to get. The nanites are quite pitiful, and techs are even worse since it's not guaranteed to be s rank, while killing dreadnoughts guarantees S rank techs, for free.

[pine leaf]

So I think I have a serious issue

My freighters menus cause me game to crash

Someone on here recommended that I make a save in creative mode and try getting a freighter and seeing if the menu works then

… it does….

… does this mean my save is partially corrupt???

I’m on the Switch 1

[wet sigil]

For starship augments, I semi cheat by looking up shared coordinates of "first wave exotic" space stations (stations with a high likelihood of having an exotic amongst its first wave of ships), and check to see if scrapping that exotic ship drops 3 starship cargo augments, if not, try the next station, if one is found, then stay at that space station, scrap the exotic, save and reload, wait for first wave to appear, buy and scrap the same exotic, rinse and repeat.

[pine leaf]

I really don’t want to lose my almost 400 hour save 💀

But I can’t send my frigates on mission, warp or upgrade my freighter at all anymore

[subtle aurora]

for the end of the artemis path, do i need to go ||into the galactic center or into an atlas station near the center?||

[wet sigil]

Did you try moving your freighter elsewhere before going into the menus?

[stuck berry]

Neither #nms-questions message

[wet sigil]

||No, you just need to warp 16 times, but I high recommend you wait a minute after each warp, until the Glyph learned notification pops up before warping again||

[subtle aurora]

||oh goddamnit, i portaled to the center already||

[subtle aurora]

||i do already have all 16 glyphs||

[visual terrace]

What time does the Oceanus fight reset?

[wet sigil]

The go nuts

[mossy cape]

Use a teleport from any station to go to your freighter. When you have some freighter modules you can built a teleport on the freighter too.

[wet sigil]

Or you can simply summon your freighter to your system

If you can't, travel to the nearest yellow star and summon it there instead

[pine leaf]

I’ve brought it to several systems and the issue persists.

I am very sad

I need Sean to fix my save 😞

[wet sigil]

<

[pine leaf]

I am going to try trading my freighter to see if that fixes it

[charred trout]

Yee but highest in terms kf just 5% 😭

[wet sigil]

Yes, so it's not the easiest, but compared to finding the right freighter it's a drop in the bucket, I just got ridiculously lucky with how quickly I found that 1x4 freighter

[strong bronze]

if i move my freighter will that increase the time for my frigates to finish their expeditions?

[wet sigil]

I do not believe so, but don't quote me on that, I usually wait until they return before changing

[mossy cape]

So long as you have enough fuel on your freighter right?

[wet sigil]

I am not sure if fuel is actually needed, but I know it never consumes any

[pine leaf]

How do I get a pirate freighter?

[calm wasp]

What i doing wrong?

I defeat many times Oceanus and not count

[wet sigil]

Triggering a freighter fight in any outlaw system should guarantee it

[blissful wedge]

why does it think im in space

[wet sigil]

||given the state of atlas, not surprising|| I'd try save and reloading

[stuck berry]

Because you are outside of the bounds of the space station

[blissful wedge]

how do i fix that

[stuck berry]

reload a save

[pine leaf]

Right but how do I get it after I beat it up??

Is it just mine then?

I don’t have a good fighter right now so I might not be able to take it all down in time

[wet sigil]

You need to get it to surrender, which requires you to destroy it's engines, and either destroy it's anti ship cannons or destroy it's shield generators and damage it's hull down until it surrenders

[stuck berry]

You don't need any decent ship at all, the default one can do that #nms-questions message

[charred trout]

What are the chances for getting a and above class expedetion ships (not the ship class like just in general)

[stuck berry]

Do you mean frigates? They have these chances. Note that frigates level up as they complete expeditions, so it doesn't matter toooo much

[wet sigil]

Do frigate expedition events have a chance to fail if that expedition has 150 across all 4 stats?

I don't remember seeing any

[vagrant wasp]

anyone have any success coloring their pets with the egg sequencer?

[chilly juniper]

Do all ancient ruins have a large ancient crate, and can I find the large crates using the analysis visor?

[wet sigil]

Yes and yes

[chilly juniper]

Hmm interesting, I ended up finding one but it wasn't showing up on my analysis visor

[limpid echo]

howcome the right module doesn't get a adjacency bonus?

[wet sigil]

No idea, some modules simply don't have adjacency bonuses, a few modules are like that sprinkled around, the auto charging launcher, one of the exosuit oxygen upgrades, etc etc do not confer adjacency bonuses to anything

[zenith flax]

it says thatone of the larval core's uses is upgrading, what kind of upgrading does it mean?

[wet sigil]

Possibly an old tooltip text? You can either sell it for units or refine them into nanites, but I would sell at least 2 for units, one of the quest steps involves getting units for microprocessor, a few eggs should be enough units for that step, assuming you haven't gotten the units required already

[charred trout]

Is the only way to get quock silver through the nexus missions daily only? I dont remember if I asked this already 😭

[rare cave]

Hey so I exchanged a new ship and it told me to "quick transfer" since the game told me to empty my ship, I did quick transfer on everythink in my ship and when it was clear I hit exchange, I assumed quick transfer went to my exo suit but everything is gone, does quick transfer delete everything? Its not like all of it isnt earnable back but it would just be really sad if i lost all my progress collecting for hours

[strong bronze]

can the default life support unit be supercharged?

im just confused cuz im not sure if ANYTHING can be supercharged or only stuff that shows u stats alreay when u hover over it yknow

[mighty carbon]

I don't think so i put jetpacks in supercharged

But you can try and put life support

And see the difference

[strong bronze]

idk how to check the difference

[mighty carbon]

You mean the Freighter?

or normal starship?

[rare cave]

normal starship

[mighty carbon]

Just go on a planet that have bad weather or storms

And try it there

See if putting it on supercharged will consume less or no

[mighty carbon]

So you had stuff in your starship storage

Double check freighter might be there

If you have one

[gusty rivet]

Would anyone be willing to pull a ship for me from the service bot and send me the json code? Please I can’t use the bot for 30 days

[urban citrus]

What does using the gravitino coil do

[rare cave]

I dont have one I only had my one star ship.

[urban citrus]

Like when I move the stuff what happens

[mighty carbon]

It can be for Industrial recycling

[urban citrus]

Whats that do

[mighty carbon]

And it gives nanites and so components

[urban citrus]

Oh ok

It makes my gun look ugly tho

[mighty carbon]

It could be lost or stored somewhere else like another storages

[mighty carbon]

😂

[lyric venture]

If I reject my first freighter is the next one free?

I think I rejected one before I got to the story mode one? It looked bad and I thought I had to pay

[rare cave]

Yeah I have no other storages as im just starting out, I guess its all lost. Its just a bummer since I work a lot and it was days of work. Thanks for trying to help though man

[mighty carbon]

There is a mission that gives you one for free after saving it other than that you have to pay to get one

[lyric venture]

And that’s the I people soft reset?

[mighty carbon]

Sometimes it would be transfers to storages to get those storages either you should have a corvette or freighter

Once you go on build menu you will some storages

[signal socket]

How do I get glyphs

Do I really have ti travel all the way to the center of the galaxy for em cuz im at the purge mission rn

[wet sigil]

You just need to warp 16 times for that quest step, in a y direction

[mighty carbon]

You have to travel between systems the game will give you automatically when you travel a lot

[wet sigil]

Also, after each warp, wait for the Glyph learned notification to popp up before warping again

[mighty carbon]

Ask frost he knows more than I do about Freighters

[signal socket]

Like now that ive reached the purge Mission? Cuz ive warped a shit tone already

[wet sigil]

The next one should still be free

[wet sigil]

Can you screenshot your quest log?

[signal socket]

Just say reach the core

Ah

[wet sigil]

Can you also check how many glyphs you have actually learned?

[signal socket]

Now i have to do it 16 times

I got 1 already

[signal socket]

Zero zero. Ig you only get tjem once you get to this mission point

[wet sigil]

Then warp again, wait until the notification pops up, don't chain warp

[signal socket]

Gotchu gotchu

[proper dawn]

where do i assmble my corette ship? is it in the spacestation or the anomaly?ar someplace else?

[wet sigil]

Space station

Anomaly has no such terminal

[proper dawn]

bt it only shows me to make starships in the space station

[wet sigil]

Go the other way

Towards the direction of the hangar door that your ship came from when landing

Once you pass the starship landing pad there should be a terminal in the middle of the "runway", that's where all the corvette things take place

[proper dawn]

ohh ok

[mighty carbon]

You can reach the core by a portal that's the easiest way

If you have one glyph that would be enough

So find a portal

[wet sigil]

Yes, though he's at the step where the glyphs are given to you got gree

That step, contrary to the log, do not actually require you to warp even in the general direction of the core, nevermind being at the core

[lyric venture]

Should I claim a class B for my first freighter or do lots recommend to reload? How time consuming is getting an A class

[signal socket]

Nah dont work the core. Just want the glyphs so I cam go to an old friends planet

Ik the core is to change galaxies

[wet sigil]

I would take it, since pirate dreadnoughts cannot spawn until you have one, and it's always free to claim anyway

[mighty carbon]

No your mistaken

Core make new ones

[winged moat]

??????

[wet sigil]

Completely incorrect

[mighty carbon]

Not a portal to take you back

[signal socket]

? What

[winged moat]

Straight lies

[wet sigil]

You never make new galaxies

All galaxies are pre-determined

[signal socket]

Theres 250 right?

[wet sigil]

256, though the 256th require taxi

[winged moat]

When going through the galactic core you are taken to the next galaxy in order, starting with #1 Euclid, then going to #2 Hilbert…etc, and when you reach #255 it takes you back to Euclid @mighty carbon

[signal socket]

Taxi

[mighty carbon]

Everytime i go there it takes me to a new one 🤷‍♂️

[signal socket]

Like a cab

[winged moat]

Correct, new galaxy for you. Doesn’t create a new one though

[wet sigil]

It's not a new galaxy, it just takes you to a galaxy that's next on the list

[mighty carbon]

Oh

But you can travel back to any galaxies you want through the normal portals by putting glyphs code

[wet sigil]

All 256 galaxies in the game have already been discovered, it just teleports you to the next galaxy k. The list

[mighty carbon]

Instead of like going all 255

[winged moat]

No you can’t

[wet sigil]

Incorrect, portal codes do not contain galaxy number

[signal socket]

What happens when you reach 256?

[mighty carbon]

You can i can send you a video

[winged moat]

Glyph codes only work within your current galaxy

[winged moat]

Straight lies again

[wet sigil]

If you go through the core of 255, it loops you back to #1

[mighty carbon]

I did actually

[signal socket]

Makes sense

[bitter crypt]

This is incorrect. Galaxies are not the same as systems

[tulip dust]

-# to view info below, enable embeds

Galaxy isn't the same as Star System

Galaxies are huge maps and there are 256 of them. Each one contains billions (1 billion = 1 000 000 000) of Star Systems

Star Systems have a star and 2-6 celestial bodies

Shared by: art3mis_7129

[winged moat]

It has been proven time and time again that using a glyph code for a system that is not in your current galaxy will cause the portal to put you in a different system in your current galaxy

[wet sigil]

Try it with any coordinates in Euclid, then go to a different galaxy, and use the same portal code, you will be brought to a different star

[winged moat]

But please, send me the video of you going to a different galaxy with a portal

[signal socket]

Ig the only way to go back would be tbe actual teleporter maybe thats what hes thinking

[mighty carbon]

Bro where did you learn to speak like that you don't know some manners or respect am not an old player in this game am just confirming i could be mistaken as well am not lying go learn some manners before speaking what are you American?!

[winged moat]

…wut?

[signal socket]

This is what the atlas path does to people

[mighty carbon]

Am not sure but i will give it a try thanks letting me know

[rare cave]

Arthur is trying to help gamer, I dont know why your being rude lmao

[shadow path]

How do I use chat on ps5

[wet sigil]

Teleporters do not take glyphs, so speaking about glyphs basically locks that action to using portals

[mighty carbon]

The problem is am new as well and frost knows he always help me i don't understand why that guy is being rude.

[signal socket]

Yea ik. Just thought thats what they were thinking

[wet sigil]

But yes, teleporters brings you directly back to galaxy that it's built in

[winged moat]

I pointed out what he said was wrong, then corrected it. In what way is that rude?

[winged moat]

You don’t.
Text chat only exists on PC

[signal socket]

You dont have to craft glyphs right

[bitter crypt]

You can't craft them, no

You unlock them, then can use them at any portal

[signal socket]

Kk

Just wondering i got the 16 now

[bitter crypt]

Awesome!

[stuck berry]

The end of the main story gives all 16 of them

[mighty carbon]

So portals is only for same galaxy not the different one because somehow i did manage to go back to the old galaxy eculid by watching a video in YouTube

I will give it a try

[winged moat]

Correct.
And again; I’d love to see the video.

[bitter crypt]

you probably used the portals to get to a system near the core, then warped to get to a different galaxy

[stuck berry]

All players start out in Euclid Galaxy, you were probably already in it

[mighty carbon]

Yeah but according to frost it should be after 256

🤷‍♂️

[bitter crypt]

correct

After the last galaxy, it loops back to Euclid, #1

[stuck berry]

When entering the core of Odyalutai, the 256th galaxy, you are sent to Hilbert Dimension, the 2nd

[winged moat]

After 255. 256 is glitched to not allow travel into normally

[mighty carbon]

Yeah i didn't complete 256

[stuck berry]

256 is meant to be out of the loop

[shadow path]

I connected a keyboard now what

[winged moat]

You’re still on PS5?

[bitter crypt]

Ps5 with keyboard is not a PC, so it still will not work, I imagine

[shadow path]

Yea but I connected a keyboard

[winged moat]

A keyboard doesn’t magically make a ps5 into a pc

[shadow path]

Oh um ok

[signal socket]

You sure

This does not enable you to type into the game chat in NMS

[wet sigil]

A console and pc is different due to the hardware and operating system, a keyboard or even a mouse alone will not change the nature of the hardware

[signal socket]

!!

[mighty carbon]

Oh am actually mistaken am using the normal portals to travel back 😂🤣

I just remembered now

That makes sense now

Am using the base portals

[stuck berry]

Those are not portals, those are teleporters

[steady token]

is there a way to fix this? It's just looping when I hold E

[signal socket]

What the hell is the heart of the sun

[winged moat]

Teleporter vs Portal

[stuck berry]

An item that you unlock the blueprint for by progressing The Atlas Path

[stuck berry]

Not sure, it shouldn't do that. Possibly try saving and reloading? I had something similar happen once, I just went to another one instead

[signal socket]

Its telling me to make the remembrance thing

[wet sigil]

Try saving and reloading

[stuck berry]

Yes, that is pinned to your log upon completing the main story

[wet sigil]

That item is made by making the first blueprint from the atlas path and then working your way up

[shadow path]

Is this a real person??

[steady token]

yeah not happening, ill just find a new monolith

its still broken

[signal socket]

Ah so continue atlas path

[wet sigil]

Heart of the sun should be one of the last recipes

Before rememberance

So you should already have the recipes unlocked

Each step requiring the previous to make, except for the first

[mighty carbon]

But what difference between the galaxies

Are they all same?

[signal socket]

I dont have tje sun tho but I have remeberace

Gear item remembrance

[limpid echo]

does how well a ridden creature controls vary, or are they all about the same

[signal socket]

I just got modified quanta now

[empty mural]

Does anyone know if you can tame flying critters, I can't imagine why not but I also have no clue how to get close because I've seen some really cool ones

[stuck berry]

aim at it with your analysis visor in creature analysis mode, if it shows no xeno arena stats then no

[empty mural]

That's a very good tip I hadn't thought of before thank you

[stuck berry]

currently a bug makes this require you to have at least 2 companions

[wet sigil]

Galaxy type dictate the planet type distribution in their yellow systems, for example, harsh galaxies have more harsh weather planets, green galaxies have more lush planets, dead galaxies I think has more dead planets, and light blue is just normal like euclid

[empty mural]

I got the small shivering pet creature event just now and it upset me pretty bad so I'm trying to tame other animals to make my brain feel better right now

[limpid echo]

cause i found one and riding it was worse than just walking lol

[wet sigil]

Then you should already have made it in the past before

[mighty carbon]

Oh so green is best option?

[stuck berry]

if you wish for lush worlds in yellow systems, yes

[wet sigil]

My bad, rememberance is from artemis

[signal socket]

Nah. The remeberance is apart of the path for the glyphs but to make this remeberakcs thing requires to finish the atlast one

I made the star now anyway

[wet sigil]

Yeah I got confused

[signal socket]

Just got the blueprint

[wet sigil]

I used to use red when I was looking for curious deposits farm because 8 need them on harsh radioactive planets, so I was fishing around in a harsh galaxy a while back

[signal socket]

But it seems I crafted it too fast now it wants me to make 2

[mighty carbon]

So it's best if i just build base in each of the galaxies

[wet sigil]

Speak to the atlas station with it in your inventory

[analog wasp]

Hello im enjoying permadeath but the stacks size its just incompatible with the way i enjoy this kind of Games (somewhat hoarder). Anybody knows wich option changes it? I don't see to find one

[stuck berry]

can't change that in pd

[strong bronze]

what should i put on the other supercharged slot? (bottom left is supercharged too)

[analog wasp]

No but a custom with permadeath-ish vibes. I want to choose permadeath then change stacks sizes only Even if its custom. But i don't find wich option alters that

[signal socket]

What does the remeberance exo mod do?

[stuck berry]

Well you can't

pd disables the option to pick many easy things

[tall dock]

Engine upgrade

Use one of the x class

[raven matrix]

I never got a living ship before.
Do living ships have access to X class upgrades?

[wet sigil]

Gives one extra health pip, and if you place it adjacent to the atlas path rewards, both will total to give you 3 pips. It's also used to read lore behind doors that require atlas pass V3 on abandoned space stations

[strong bronze]

which one do u think i should do

[wet sigil]

No, they use completely different set of upgrades

[signal socket]

Pip?

[stuck berry]

one extra core health point

you begin the game with three, and can increase this to 9

[signal socket]

Gotcha

[analog wasp]

Nvm i found it. Thanks anyway.

[wet sigil]

I call them pips because I saw someone call it that way

Basically, rememberance, star seed and 3 s class exosuit shields are enough to cap your health to 9, meaning core health on the sentinel and autophage life support modules are dead stats with those two

[signal socket]

Now whats rhe star seed for

One of those pip things

Nvm u just said it

Ig atlast path is completed

[lilac hinge]

is there an appreciable difference in ship types? I like a big bulky juggernaut ship. Was gonna start working on crafting my first starship, looking at haulers.
Will i get smoked by NPCs in battles or anything by not going with fighter or solars or is it all kinda just samey for the most part?

[stuck berry]

Their stat bonus % ranges, their speeds when fully upgraded, their max upgradeable storage sizes as well as how much they tend to start with

[wet sigil]

The general consensus is that while each ship has their stat differences , a fully upgraded ship of any kind will be enough to take on anything the game throws at you, the ship types becomes a matter of what would you like to do more efficiently than others

[stuck berry]

there's a combat scaling system, so you won't be truly outdone if you don't focus on combat

but combat won't get boringly easy if you spec heavily into it either (well it does eventually, it just takes a lot of effort)

[proper lodge]

Why is there only 1 star on the planet if there 3 stars in the system?

[wet sigil]

Haulers lack of damage bonus and low manuverability is countered by that they have the strongest shields, so it balances out

[stuck berry]

What do you mean by this?

Planets do not have their own individual economy tiers, only entire star systems do

[proper lodge]

system has 3 stars but i see only 1 on the planet

[stuck berry]

Where do you see a "star" on a planet though?

[wet sigil]

Do you have a screen shot?

[proper lodge]

like our sun

[lilac hinge]

Yea, just goin for aesthetics, i like the bulky haulers (plus that was my jam in EVE. I like haulin)
Just didn't wanna put all this effort into building a starship and then be like... dang shouldn't have wasted my time

[stuck berry]

Oh, you mean the physical star in the skybox? That is fully untied to economy tier

[proper lodge]

sad

[stuck berry]

That's just random on it's own

[proper lodge]

it would be cool to see 3 shadows

[stuck berry]

with a like 20% chance for binary and 5% chance for trinary

still with one shadow/light cast position

just looks pretty

they also are always different colors I think

alongside that, visible star color is unrelated to the actual stellar class (yellow, red, green, blue, purple)

[wet sigil]

Well making your own starships avoids a lot of s rank hunting since you can buy s rank reactor's in any space station, which I feel where most new players trap themselves in

So it's not the worst idea ever

I would be quite on board with it actually

[lilac hinge]

Looking for hauler ships, i should do a 3 star gek system ye?

[wet sigil]

For ship parts, it doesn't matter about economy

In fact I would probably prefer one star economies because they would have the highest chances of spawning C class, which is all you need to scrap for the part you need

[gusty rivet]

Can someone pull me a ship form the bot please?

[wet sigil]

The gek system is correct though

[tropic ginkgo]

with how far a star is from you, you wouldn't see more than one shadow if it was a binary/trinary system

[minor flame]

I didnt even consider that it would be cheaper to just buy a whole new ship than it would be to buy an extra slot, does it have to be an S class or could i buy a worse one if I'm just going to scrap it anyways?

[signal socket]

Last question. Why is it i cannot have paradise planets. A person had found one so I warped to them yet it has sentinels but in their sc its a paradise

[stuck berry]

Any class

[signal socket]

This has been troubling me for the past week I just cant find one

[stuck berry]

parts do not have a class

[wanton dome]

Anyone play nms on ns2? Curious how its graphics hold up against a pc or ps5

[wet sigil]

Paradise planet can have high sentinel levels

[stuck berry]

You have on-foot combat set to hostile

[signal socket]

But its labeled paradise

[stuck berry]

or higher than the other player

[stuck berry]

This isn't technically true.

[wet sigil]

8 stand corrected

[signal socket]

Not for me but for them its labeled tjay way

[stuck berry]

Then it's what I said, you're on a higher difficulty

one that makes basically all planets have at least High Sentinel Activity

even those that bug out to have Low will function identically to High

unless the other player is like playing with On-Foot Combat = None

[signal socket]

So what setting is it. I have em set to hostile should I just do standard?

[stuck berry]

Standard, if you wish to find worlds that don't have sentinels patrolling

[misty pulsar]

are there any ways to get these floating cargo pods on player owned freighters ?

[signal socket]

Thats what im looking for. Every single planet as em

[stuck berry]

this does not affect storm status whatsoever. Lush worlds will still have the same presence of storms

[wet sigil]

Nope

[misty pulsar]

sad🥀

[signal socket]

I specifically went to a lush galaxy to find a paradise plenty w zero luck

[stuck berry]

Paradise Planet/Moon is a biome name given to lush worlds that have both No Storms and Low Sentinel Activity

[signal socket]

After 100 warps

[stuck berry]

most people think it's solely the former part

[wet sigil]

Small freighters will retain attachee cargo pods, but the detached ones never follow players

[signal socket]

Lemme try standard then

[wet sigil]

Would low activity sentinel worlds have pillars?

[signal socket]

I could kiss you rn. I spent so much time looking for one when it was impossible

Jesus christ man

[wet sigil]

I was thinking maybe they could make a base at the sentinel pillars, and use that to turn off sentinels whenever they are on the planet for extended periods of time

[stuck berry]

Yes, all are kinda supposed to

[signal socket]

Holy shit I must've spent 5 hours looking for one

I just needed to change the settings to standard

[stuck berry]

I used to play on survival and accepted I'd never see them, but it always got weird in multiplayer when I'd play with a friend who wouldn't expect to be stalked constantly and would trigger them

[proper lodge]

if i attack the sentinel will pillar go in lockdown mode?

[lilac hinge]

is there a way to tell what kinda ship you find other than just kinda knowin how they look?
Thought this was a hauler, guess its an explorer

[stuck berry]

Aim your Analysis Visor at it

it will say Shuttle | A or something like that

[lilac hinge]

just says "building"

[stuck berry]

Possibly save and reload, it may be still thinking it's a crash site

[wet sigil]

It wouldn't stop you from turning off sentinels with the pillar iirc

[lilac hinge]

yea, reload made it populate

[proper lodge]

you can tell by looks, shuttles always have that kind of cabin and it always looks like someone just found rocket engine and put cabin on top of it

[signal socket]

How do you type

[proper lodge]

you need to destroy 3 things around tho

[stuck berry]

in in-game chat? Can only be done on PC, by pressing enter

[signal socket]

Yea got it

Thx

[wet sigil]

For the first time yes, for subsequent times I think the terminal is just unlocked by default

But even then, turning off the pillar is faster than killing your way to a walker

[proper lodge]

has there been expedition about dissonant worlds?

[strong bronze]

is the only way to get one of these via purchase?

[proper lodge]

you can also get from scrappingships

[wet sigil]

Can you? I have never gotten a reactor from scrapping a ship

[tall dock]

1st option

[stuck berry]

Yes, Expedition 10: Singularity

[proper lodge]

i got it before but not always, i think there some chance to that

[wet sigil]

I must be unlucky then, I used to scrap interceptor for sport and I never gotten any reactors

[proper lodge]

so there no hope for major update to corrupted sentinels?

[stuck berry]

There could be, we dunno though

[wet sigil]

Hopping pirate stations, buy their suspicious tech and weapon packages, open them, and sell the X ranks for nanites

[strong bronze]

wait thats smart

[wet sigil]

You only need to visit like a dozen or so pirate stations, after that you can use teleporter to hop between them

However it does require some units upfront, like say 50m or so

[signal socket]

Last question and im done. Is there really a point in changing galaxies. Ik some are lush with more lush planets but is that the only difference?

[lilac hinge]

am i correct in just spamming emergency planetary charts, ignoring everything except distress beacons, grabbing ship, flying it to station and dismantle or sell if its not a hauler?

[tropic ginkgo]

interceptors can't drop reactors when scrapped in my experience

[proper lodge]

is there any special tech in exp 10 and do i unlocked crimson and atlantid helmets across all saves or one

[wet sigil]

That would explain it, thougu I wonder if exotics can

[wet sigil]

Cosmetic awards from expedition are account wide

[wet sigil]

If you don't have the funds to buy ships and scrapping them, sure

[proper lodge]

Alright, can i get 2 helmets at once?

[wet sigil]

But getting the nav data to upkeep the emergency charts would make that a bit iffy

[proper lodge]

I don't wanna redo expedition just for another helmet

[lilac hinge]

yea, broke rn, but im getting 3ish mill a pop, so building up some wealth

[wet sigil]

One expedition should be enough to get all the rewards associated with that expedition

[proper lodge]

Well on wiki it says that if i choose one other will be locked

[wet sigil]

I am not aware of any expeditions where rewards are spread across multiple playthroughs

[lilac hinge]

although i feel like im crazy. liaterally every ship i have found so far has been this Izuma
Am i missing something?

[proper lodge]

Since there can be only 1 mind in construct

[wet sigil]

You are not, if you want different ships you may need to try a different star

[lilac hinge]

i figured each beacon would be randomized

[stuck berry]

You could redo it to get the other one

[wet sigil]

No idea then, I never did that expedition

[stuck berry]

or... pick one, reload save, pick the other

picking one doesn't lock out the other, they were both locked by default

[proper lodge]

Alright thanks

[proper lodge]

I meant that it locks another ignition variant for that expedition run unless you reload as you said

[signal socket]

Last question and im done. Is there really a point in changing galaxies. Ik some are lush with more lush planets but is that the only difference?

[proper lodge]

Pretty much yeah

But it's great to find planet you need instead of going though 80 systems for planet that doesn't even look good

[visual terrace]

Is it worth finding a ship with good sc layout?

[tropic ginkgo]

doesn't make a noticeable impact on gameplay, just minmaxing

[wet sigil]

Do it only because you want to. Don't do it for the improvement s

[ruby fox]

Are sentinel technology fragments good to use?

[steady token]

for some reason I cant find the staff assembly kiosk

[stuck berry]

It's the center terminal

note that you can only use it for this purpose after you have reached the end of Audience with the Autophage, which is a part of They Who Returned #nms-commands message

[steady token]

yeah im done with it

still no kiosk

[stuck berry]

Then maybe go to a different Autophage Camp, possibly one that isn't also a Harmonic Camp

Go to a non-dissonant world and use your Polyphonic Core Multi-Tool technology

[wet sigil]

For the exosuit? Only if they are rolled well, but you would always aim for them to roll either core health and/or shield strength

[steady token]

thanks

[fast orchid]

Guys, but only on Switch 2 is it that the textures of the suit and the character don't load for a couple of minutes?

[ruby fox]

Yes i got one with 10% shield and 33% core health

[fast orchid]

does it happen to you too?

[winged moat]

I don’t know if it’s a switch 2 issue only, but I’ve seen it happen before. Usually fixes itself within a minute or so for me.
Probably worth report to HG so they can look at it

[tulip dust]

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

[wet sigil]

33% core health is a lie by the game, it's actually 20%

That module you have isn't the best but if your alternative is an empty space then keep using it

[stuck berry]

Huh? It should be 33%, or 1 core health

33% of the default, which is 3 core health

[wet sigil]

???

[strong bronze]

inside derelict freighters is there any point in reading the log snippets?

[wet sigil]

Every source i read says it's 20% under the hood?

[stuck berry]

That's some internal stuff, that's probably how big one core health is, 20 hp

or something

I can go check at least

[wet sigil]

I'll test it tonight then

[visual terrace]

Are there black exotics or are those modded?

[wet sigil]

If it's 33%, then 3 of those with 3 health should end with 6, 20% should end with 4

[stuck berry]

the result of a temporary graphics bug, or mods

having 3 x +33% gives you 6 health total

so they each count as one core health

[wet sigil]

If it's 33% then core health stat on anything than shield modules is even less useful

[wet sigil]

Thanks

I stand corrected

[wet sigil]

Please ignore my post about 33% core being a lie

[ruby fox]

Ok thanks

[dense belfry]

Is it possible to save scum with the expedition pets? I was able to do it with the robot mouse, but it won't let me do it with the others—they just give me static stats

[wet sigil]

Actually, may I ask if those modules were adjacent to each other?

[stuck berry]

They were not

Also, the Star Seed and Remembrance were not present

which themselves each add one more, with adjacency of them adding one more for some reason

probably due to their stats working differently? idk

they have the same value as the upgrades, but they have something else saying "level = 20"

[wet sigil]

Yeah, i didn't notice my error as even if the core health was 20%, the star seed and remembrance plus the 3 shield health would cap health by themselves

[stuck berry]

Yes, which is what they do

[wet sigil]

Time for more modules rolling tonight

Anomaly suppressor has no effect post expedition right?

(besides providing adjacency bonuses)

[tame bane]

How do you pilot the exo skiff

[fast orchid]

I put the xeno arena update...then I don't know if I did it right...oh well, they will surely understand anyway

[stuck berry]

This is not a feature of the Exo-Skiff

[fossil pagoda]

can someone help me it wont let me speak to null

[stuck berry]

Have you tried saving and reloading first?

[fossil pagoda]

oh ok thanks it works now

[charred trout]

When tf did tue void egg cost 3200???

[stuck berry]

Since it released, to my knowledge

back then it was more crazy as we could only get 250 per mission

[tame bane]

the abyssal horrors look so derpy

they just die and their eye falls out

i love it

[visual terrace]

Is it possible to have a dissonant planet without any of the tall mining sentinels?

[stuck berry]

Not really, but mountainous ones fail to generate them in many places due to the steepness

[proper lodge]

No but there can be ones where they more than 1k u apart

[visual terrace]

That makes sense it’s super mountainy and I’ve looked for like 20min

[proper lodge]

Better to find normal planet

[visual terrace]

Yea I just left it

[proper lodge]

You'll look for one more hour in mountain planet

Is there any point in communication towers around the planet after finishing the story?

[stuck berry]

Not really, besides like one line of silly text

[tame bane]

Where can I see the living ship permutations?

[atomic glade]

is there a way to like, upgrade freighter tiers?

[tame bane]

And how do you get a dreadnought freighter/

[atomic glade]

or am i wasting s tier upgrades and storage modules on a b tier freighter

[stuck berry]

On places like https://nmsce.com/, https://www.reddit.com/r/NMSCoordinateExchange/, or via this image from the pins in #nms-legacy-ships

[stuck berry]

Like class? No.

[wet sigil]

The upgrades can be taken off the freighter and brought to the new one

So those are never wasted

[atomic glade]

even the storage modules?

[wet sigil]

Not those

[stuck berry]

Pirate Dreadnoughts are encountered in special events that replace regular freighter rescue events after you qualify for them to begin occurring #nms-questions message

[atomic glade]

ok so still, better to wait for an s class etc?

[wet sigil]

Storage modules you have to get them all over again

Freighters are the only things I would spend time to hunt s ranks for, because lack of alternative methods, and that cargo bulkheads can be a big pain to get

[atomic glade]

also another thing, frigates

do they transfer to other freighters?

[wet sigil]

They move with you

[atomic glade]

or are they stuck on that original freigh ah

[stuck berry]

Like most things, they were never tied to your original freighter in the first place

[atomic glade]

so my 3 little pirate dreadnought "rescued" ones will come with if i get a better one

nice to know

[wet sigil]

Correct

[atomic glade]

any tips for hunting the good freighters down or is it a pure rng type of thing

[stuck berry]

Very much depends on the type that you want, in the end they're all functionally the same besides the big upper ones starting out with a few more slots

But overall, class is fully random for them, chances determined by local system economy

[atomic glade]

i'd assume the venator stuff is not standard?

cuz that seems like starwars stuff

[stuck berry]

They are capital freighters, which are only found during freighter rescue events or pirate dreadnought events

they could be easily farmed via save scumming with regular events, or hunting a system that always spawns pirate dreadnought events and warping back and forth from that

[silver bluff]

Hey is there a way to unlock the Autophage species in the character editor before doing the mission?

[stuck berry]

no

well, if you have the expedition 10 heads, yes

otherwise no

those can't be gotten anymore via normal means

[unique patrol]

Out of curiosity, what is the largest/scariest creature you've discovered in a deep ocean?

[silver bluff]

So I gotta get to that late game mission to be the autophage

[atomic glade]

and the sentinels? i'd assume you'd have to destroy a sentinel tier 5 thing in space to get a chance at those?

or is it a different route for them too

[stuck berry]

No, they are from the same events as venators

[atomic glade]

ah

[stuck berry]

the Sentinel Capital Ships that the sentinels directly use cannot be taken, they are also a different size from the ones we can own

[limpid echo]

is there a way to make riding more useful?

or is it just for the novelty

[stuck berry]

Like riding companions? Certain flying ones can be actually very useful

like flying beetles and butterflies

[limpid echo]

i got a ground one cause i was hoping it'd be decent speed for getting around

but it was straight up slower than walking

[stuck berry]

when made large, they can traverse landscapes faster than exocraft

[limpid echo]

despite itself being quite fast before i tamed it

[silver bluff]

What planets usually got beetles?

[stuck berry]

the "robot antelopes" from uncharted systems are also similarly fast, comparable to exocraft

[stuck berry]

any, no weight

same with nearly all fauna that aren't weirdly special

[limpid echo]

is it just specific body types to look for?
i tried a giant 6 legged beetle and it was basically a crawl

[stuck berry]

most of the land ones are generally janky and slow and not too useful for riding generally, just a neat thing that can be done that might be better than running but is worse than most other means

[limpid echo]

ah so just shoot for flying ones for actual travel

[stuck berry]

even robot antelopes are worse than melee boosting or using rocket boots I think

but yeah, the flying beetles or butterflies are usually what people settle on

there is another class of adoptable flying creature called "protoflyers" that are more similar to land creatures in that they're slow

[limpid echo]

gotcha, I'll see if i find one of those to try when im out and about

and unrelated question
is there a way to mine ore with the manipulator with it set to large and not take a huge hit to how many resources it gives me

[silver bluff]

How many hours in would yall say they autophage quest is

[limpid echo]

cause it takes ages to do it with the smallest one

but only getting a couple hundred per chunk also sucks

[pale sleet]

How does one obtain crystal sulphide

[wet sigil]

In deep oceans

[stuck berry]

Collect it from the oceans of planets, you can see it using your analysis visor or your scanner

it's attached to small volcanic vents underwater

[wet sigil]

And looks like green/dark green glassy nodules

[pale sleet]

Ok thank you

[burnt bison]

Ok, so I thought it was solved, but my corvette technologies mixed all over again, this bug is still happening, right?

[stuck berry]

Yes, as I replied to you before #nms-questions message

I had switched to a different corvette for about 30 minutes, resummoned my original one and it was fine

now I have played for a few hours and noticed the jumbling once again, the same as before

[burnt bison]

Oh, i saw this message and thought you were talking to me D:

[stuck berry]

I was talking to you

[burnt bison]

Ahhh I see, you replied a couple hours later and I completely missed.

Oh well, good thing I took a screenshot of my corvette this time, still, pretty annoying that this is still in the game -.-

[dark stump]

anyone able to trade me the aero parts? theyre so pretty and i wasnt playing earlier this year 🙁 or this another way to get them?

[stuck berry]

Possibly try asking in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[proper lodge]

what happens to corvette when it's destroyed

[stuck berry]

Destroyed as in physically shot down, or as in exchanged with another lifeform's starship?

[proper lodge]

shot down

oh and exchanged too

[stuck berry]

The former is treated like any other starship, it's technology is damaged a bit

Being exchanged just instantly and irreversibly deletes it from existence

[proper lodge]

alright thanks

what is the limit of corvettes i can build

2?

[stuck berry]

They count as a type of starship, so same limits

[proper lodge]

oh i see

[stuck berry]

you can have up to 12 active starships at any given time

but, corvettes cannot be placed in the Starship Archive

which is the extra inventory of 18 more ships that doesn't store cargo

[proper lodge]

what about freighter pads? what if there 2 already staying on them and i need to land?

[stuck berry]

I do not know, that is a very niche scenario

one is always open for you to land when not in multiplayer

[proper lodge]

alright

can corvette parts be destroyed?

if corvette parts in tech will they be damaged? if so will they change their appearance or have some effect?

[stuck berry]

In what way?

[proper lodge]

when something shoots my corvette or something like that

[stuck berry]

You cannot dismantle them directly from the technology inventory, but you can discard them from your cargo inventory

[stuck berry]

Technology is never destroyed, only damaged

[stuck berry]

I do not believe corvette module technology can be damaged, but I am not sure

I'd assume not, as that's a whole lot of resource lists that they'd need

[limpid echo]

anything for this or is it just a quirk you gotta deal with?

[proper lodge]

alright thanks

[stuck berry]

and I recall a mod author who made them craftable had to add their own recipes or something

[stuck berry]

I do not believe so, maybe mods can modify this but I am not sure

[limpid echo]

dang

[stuck berry]

[stuck berry]

maybe changing a difficulty option may improve how much you get total, but not enough to offset how much you miss out on by using big mode

[limpid echo]

I'll send one in but, does that actually work
seeing how some much more pressing issues are years old is discouraging

[stuck berry]

They say they read all of them

they almost never respond unless it's an issue pertaining you you specifically, like your 500hr save being corrupted in some undo-able way

[wet sigil]

Or you can use the autonomous mining unit, build 5 of them on top of a deposit, fuel it up, stand there for a bit and then loot it, it probably won't be much faster than doing the manual mining but at least you can take a break for a bit

[proper lodge]

What expedition is special hauler in?

[limpid echo]

oh those go on nodes?

[stuck berry]

Expedition 13: Adrift had the Iron Vulture

[limpid echo]

i unlocked them recently but haven't gotten to actual base building

[stuck berry]

the AMU can be used outside of bases

[proper lodge]

Alright thanks

[stuck berry]

unlike the Mineral Extractors

[wet sigil]

Those don't require a base to be built

[limpid echo]

if you mean the pillar looking ones

oh, I'm thinking of something else

[wet sigil]

The extractors do, which is a whole different beast, but AMU can be built on the fly

[proper lodge]

Can all expedition ships hover?

[stuck berry]

No

[limpid echo]

how do you get amu? i haven't seen them

[wet sigil]

It's short for Autonomous Mining Unit

[proper lodge]

Which ones can aside from hauler and starborn runner?

[wet sigil]

Which is unlocked in the anomaly

[stuck berry]

Only sentinel ships, the starborn runner/phoenix, haulers built with the iron vulture wings as well as corvettes can hover

[limpid echo]

ah, guess i just didn't see it in the tech tree

[proper lodge]

Alright thanks

[burnt bison]

Why can I not see the maneuverability stat on my corvette? I already closed and reopened the game.

[limpid echo]

do they actually deplete the node ever or can i just leave them there forever

[stuck berry]

Open the pause menu

then close it

the issue is caused by viewing the multitool menu

[charred trout]

Is there any upgrades other then using s class engine ones to increase the roamers speed?

[stuck berry]

and solved by viewing the pause menu

[wet sigil]

You can leave them forever, but they won't extract while you are not there and is limited by the fuel you put in

[proper lodge]

Booster, as i know all exocrafts can use them

[stuck berry]

There are the boost upgrades that improve boost tanks/stuff, as well as the suspension blueprints which the drift one is fun

[wet sigil]

They do not ever deplete the node however

[limpid echo]

ah they're not persistent
bummer
makes sense i guess since there are extractors

[stuck berry]

it makes you gain tons of speed from drifting too, or maybe that's an innate thing and it improves that

[limpid echo]

assuming they mine the same stuff

[stuck berry]

They do

[burnt bison]

Pause menu as in esc?
I did and still happening. When I press tab to view my ship it goes automatically to the multi-tool first

[stuck berry]

then solve that latter thing first

idk why its doing that

maybe you have smth new in your tool

[limpid echo]

yea fair enough then
is there a distance limit to when they stop working or as long as im on the same planet?

[proper lodge]

Get inside the ship, it should open it's inventory first

[limpid echo]

ie drop a ton drive away doing something else and collect them on the way back

[burnt bison]

The polyphonic core keeps glowing in my multi tool, I already used it and recharged it and it's still glowing, like if I had to do something with it, but theres nothing else to do

[wet sigil]

Have you completed the autophage quest?

[burnt bison]

I think so? The robot thing is already in the anomaly, I believe I've done everything

[stuck berry]

Is They Who Returned in your log still?

[burnt bison]

Nope

[stuck berry]

Then idk

[wet sigil]

If you are not using the core, and the glowing is bothering you, I would leave it uncharged

Or just uninstall it

[stuck berry]

If you can't find out what's causing it, possibly report it to HG as a bug, or at least something that doesn't seem like it should be happening or isn't clear on why it's happening

[burnt bison]

It started when I got to this specific system and there's an icon to do something, a mission called void synthesis. I'll try and get this done to see if it works.

[stuck berry]

Do that, it's teaching you how the Void Mote currency system works I think

[edgy river]

please tell me what missions i need to finish to start the mission to get the STAFF , from this list what i neeed to do to advance

[stuck berry]

Patterns in Time #nms-commands message (progress until it becomes New Beginnings)

also, have lifted the seal of a harmonic camp for the first time (indicated by having the Aeron Turbojet backpack customization option)

[edgy river]

so patterns in time , ok bro thank you

[stuck berry]

the main story's name changes at each step

[edgy river]

yes and on internet it keeep saying artemis or the purgee or something eeelse .. i was so confused

[stuck berry]

yes, the overall story is called The Artemis Path

and the final actual mission of it is called The Purge

[fossil pagoda]

i think im straded here anny tips

[gray shoal]

Why stranded

[fossil pagoda]

i have no more fuel to go up

[wet sigil]

Mine dihydrogen

[proper lodge]

craft starship launch fuel

[fossil pagoda]

yes i need ferrite but i cant find any here

[proper lodge]

it's easy to craft and resources for it can be found on any planet

[proper lodge]

rocks

[gray shoal]

Ferrite and dihydrogen is all u need

[proper lodge]

even little ones on the ground can do

[stuck berry]

Mine Uranium using your terrain manipulator, refine it

deposits should still be in the ocean

I think

[gray shoal]

There are rocks in caves , water

[fossil pagoda]

okay thanks will i lose all my stuff if i die btw

[stuck berry]

in your cargo inventory, yes, but you can retrieve it from your grave if on normal or relaxed difficulty

[gray shoal]

Depends on difficulty settings

U can change it in options

[fossil pagoda]

maybe i should get the water landing before i do this mission

[proper lodge]

there no need, all planets have land

except one but you wont find it anyways

[fossil pagoda]

but its small land here and its like 1000m away

[gray shoal]

1000 is Not so bad

[unique hare]

guys, found an S class freighter, but I've been using an A same type and same form but it's much longer, I think i should keep my "A" right? (also I put many storage augmentation into it already)

[proper lodge]

if you want to keep yours sure

the only difference between them is base stats and max tech/cargo slots

[burnt bison]

Yep, completing the mission fixed the bug

[proper lodge]

A class still fine

[unique hare]

well aesthetically the longer form looks better

[proper lodge]

true

[gray shoal]

Switch only if u like S one more

[unique hare]

but first time to mew to find an ''S" class freighter 🙂

[gray shoal]

Looks>stats

[proper lodge]

you can find one later anyways by reloading save over and over

[burnt bison]

what does a rebuilt exosuit module do? Is it worth?

[proper lodge]

is it grey with X icon?

[wet sigil]

That's an autophage version of the sentinel exosuit tech, so falls under the same rules; they are good only if they are rolled well

[proper lodge]

oh so they called rebuilt

[burnt bison]

I see, thanks!

[proper lodge]

i thought rebuilt is one of the names for broken upgrade modules

[wet sigil]

Nope, rebuilt is the autophage modules

In inventory it looks like an S rank module

[proper lodge]

how to get them?

[wet sigil]

While installed they have a grey emblem with a question mark in them

[wet sigil]

At any autophage terminal, they are bought with void motes

[proper lodge]

alright thanks

[burnt bison]

I already have teh 2 staffs from the expeditions. Is it worth making an autophage staff?

[wet sigil]

That would depend on how you like the autophage staff's looks

[burnt bison]

SO looks is the only reason?

Also, I can remove a staff from an expedition and claim it again later, right?

[proper lodge]

Sc layout too

Tho expedition staffs have great sc layout anyways

[wet sigil]

Yes, you can store them in multitool racks

While I am a stats > looks guy, autophage staves are the ones where the looks pushes me away from them, I don't like their jerry rigged look

(similar to how the basic corvette hab units looks on the inside)

[burnt bison]

Yeah, same here. One has stone texture, the other is just a bunch of bones. Nothing that looks high tech, not for me

[wet sigil]

@stuck berry what type of planets is least likely, or never, to spawn with water or oceans?

[stuck berry]

dead and weird

indicated by having rusted metal or gold as resources

[wet sigil]

Eek

Do waste disposal ever appear on those?

[stuck berry]

I'm not sure how water indication for other biomes works or what the chances are, I'd assume it's universal but sometimes what I find feels like otherwise but idk

[stuck berry]

No, it does not

they both count as uninhabited

[wet sigil]

😭

Thanks

[peak heron]

Do they spawn on no atmosphere planets?

[stuck berry]

Again, no

[peak heron]

[proper lodge]

Rusted metal can be mined with terrain manipulator?

[stuck berry]

Yes, it can

[proper lodge]

I've got a business plan with autophages

[stuck berry]

all mineral resources listed on planets appear as both mineral deposits that can be mined using the terrain manipulator, as well as deep-level mineral hotspots that can be extracted using mineral extractors

[proper lodge]

Dead planets have salt even without oceans?

[stuck berry]

Yes, they can

I have documented many

[proper lodge]

Alright

I was just wondering why i'm getting salt from my first S class mining spot

[river canyon]

@strong bronze Use image perms here to get or give help, not to meme.

[proper lodge]

How to give food to organic frigate?

[stuck berry]

Inspect it in the fleet management menu, there should be a sloot and a "feed" button

[proper lodge]

Alright thanks

Where can i get foot for them? Cook?

[stuck berry]

Yes, by cooking

[proper lodge]

There no chances of burning the food right?

[stuck berry]

there is not, just wacky combinations using the nutrient processor

[proper lodge]

Great, my freighter is safe then

[stuck berry]

you can always see a preview of what you are about to make, similar to refiners

I think the way food influences living frigates is described here #nms-commands message

[sonic gale]

Quick question

Is this ship good?

[stuck berry]

Yes, that is an A-Class freighter. Class on freighters doesn't impact much, but it can't be improved later

[proper lodge]

How much materials do i need to spend on one dish?

[sonic gale]

Or would is this better?

[burnt bison]

is there a way to fix when an icon for something disappears?
Like, you see the icon on the right? When I turn in order to see where it is, it disappears, I can only see it on the border of the screen, never when I'm facing its direction.

[stuck berry]

Not a lot, could even be raw meat

[wet sigil]

Depends on the dish, some require multiple steps of ingredients, some do not

Also I think you can feed them raw food

[stuck berry]

It's worse, as it's C-Class, but if you like the design more and don't have units or many upgrades on your previous freighter then it could be an option

[proper lodge]

A class i better but people choose freighter mainly by looks

[sonic gale]

Okay thanks sorry

[proper lodge]

Can living frigates starve?

[wet sigil]

No

Half of mine are never fed anything and they haven't made any complaints to my manager yet

Feeding them only serves to change their stats, otherwise they require no additional upkeep

[peak heron]

Waybworse

[upbeat flicker]

this just appeared in front of me

what can i do with it?

i couldnt find any entrances or landing pads

[stuck berry]

look at it, move on

we can't land on the ones that are found randomly
