How do i not take damage when doing Q and space? Cus i fly to high with no fuel left then i js plummet
i'd suggest having airburst engine exosuit tech installed; it recharges a bit of life support when you're falling down. can be unlocked from anomaly exosuit research npc
kk thx
not that i'm aware of
And btw what ship do u use?
@swift sand why is tut so hard
me? my current favs are sentinel, explorer, solar sail
it's not really - should be a lot easier on creative mode too
is there a way to give my friend a ship i bought?
I’ve died 3 times already
both go to a space station, you trade the ship you want to give for an npc's ship, and your friend immediately buys that ship from the npc. im pretty sure you can reload your save after to get the ship back yourself
then you're not playing creative mode - cant die in creative
can go to options/difficulty/and change the preset to creative - later change back to normal
can someone who knows about sentinel ships plaese let me know which has the most potential
with the supercharge slots and maneuverability which should be my best?
Is the starborn pheonix good? these are my things
im still in the story line
yep, it's pretty good, even just a barebones build (stacking s-class upgrade modules and techs to make the ship better) will perform nicely
KK what should i upgrade to in the future?
personally i'd take this one, because i like 2 SC slots adjacent and 2 scattered. that's a player preference thing mostly. i find that i dont need 4 SC slots to a single system
what dictates which planets ||autophage|| spawn on?
wait fk didnt mean to reply sorry
upgrade to? you mean a diff ship? you dont have to upgrade to anything really - unless you dont like starborn phoenix. no ship is going to perform without stackng upgrade modules, a proper build on it
after completing they who returned quest, autophage camps can be found pretty much on all inhabited systems
holy
any ship you upgrade will be able to deal with anything in the game
ok
but also exotics are objectively the best purely statwise
huh, i guess they have worse cargo
the difference in the max cargo inventory upgrade size isn't very significant i'd say
So which type do i have?
starborn phoenix is a unique ship, doesn't really have a type it fits into
oh ok
like you can't obtain it in the wild
im so happy i accidentally got it in 2024 when i didnt even have nms
js cus it was listed as free
yeah, was a time limited free steam dlc
phoenix has exotic innate bonuses, sentinel flying mechanics, and can hover inside atmos
i mostly meant
which planet in a system are they found on?
huh
what's differnet about interceptor flying mechanics?
does it even make that huge of a difference? i havent rlly experimented with them
you dont need to worry about that - you can use polyphonic core in space to find an autophage camp in the system. but they'll never be on planets with rusted metal or gold on the list
most of the agility buff is applied to boost maneuver, not core maneuver
im mostly wondering bc im trying to find a decent spot for an autophage settlement
then you're not going to be using poly core, you're going to use autophage settlement charts. same rules.
what does "make a huge difference"? supercharged slot layout?
I was just informed about this nms bot service is it reliable? It’s used for stuff in game apparently
reliable? you'd want to ask in its home discord server, they'd know
!creativehublink
Oh so it’s a whole thing? Woah
I only just started playing a few days ago I know nothing
think of it as a save editor/reward unlocker/etc even for platforms that arent pc. anyways, yeah, join its home discord server, can ask everything about it there
yup and in general the base stats
Tysm this game has me lost but it’s fun to figure it out every now and then
a daily driver doesn't need max out stats - that's not where the game balances at. 2) you can see the difference yourself. someone was here earlier: they supercharged infra knife core tech+1 x-class infra knife module: went from 40K to 90k dps (cursor over core tech to see dps readout)
I cannot get multiplayer to work with my friends. & have issues on my characters.
I am connected properly as I have cross-play/save & multiplayer all enabled & can see others on the anomaly. But I cannot have join or join my friends on NMS.
I get this pop up when I try to join via PSN. & I have been playing single player. I even tried deleting & reinstalling & starting a new character.
load save via play game iow solo, update both restore points, quit to main menu again, try again
Whats you're method to making alot of nanites?
sus packets tech/arms
What is update both restore points?
if i buy them what do i do with them? ik that u unpack them but where do u sell them
enter+exit ship to update restore point, walk around for a bit to update autosave
mb
Is it possible for a living ship to have a purple pulse?
any upgrade module shop
ok thx
a "purple pulse"?
Yeah the pulsing light effect that they have
Awesome thanks that worked.
probably, not sure, check nmsce.com
Actually didn’t know that was a thing tyyyy
who of you cannot see other players walking around in the anomaly
No his server doesn’t even appear in the server list
Hello! It's been a very long time since I had last played, and I'm trying to join a friend through Steam. When I go to join his game through my friends list, I get an error message that I need to update the game. When I try to join through the Join Friends menu, nothing shows up. We've confirmed that we have same version of the game.
Would anyone have any insight on how I could troubleshoot this?
you're not following me. do you, in your game, when you got to the anomaly, do you see other random players walking around
load save via play game iow solo, update both restore point and autosave, quit to main menu again, try again
bk201 whats ur method to getting alot of units
How long does it take to get to the anomaly
in creative mode, focusing on it, like 1h, if not less.
Are they still going to update the game after Zeno arena?
yes, they've given no indication in contrary.
see <#nms-questions message>
Can I join a normal world after getting to anomaly in creative
@rare boltdid you and your friend add each other with the NMS Friend code?
Once you have a decent money base, you can do trading routes, or smuggling goods from pirate stations to non-pirate systems. Should be included in the guide bk linked
Yes
you're not going to be joining a normal world, simply another character's iow player session. and yes, creative/relaxed/normal/survival can all play together
we dont make worlds in the main menu, we make characters, we all play in the same universe
characters which can be used to play solo, or join a friend
systems with skulls right?
Oops mb
you're fine, just clarifying what it actually is/what actually happens
A tip: Buy from both station and a trading outpost in the pirate system, and sell it on a trading outpost, if you can afford it
whats a trading outpost?
and ive got 1.2 mil units
a planetary structure on planets with a trading terminal. Prices are better on those. If you have an economy scanner, you can use it to find one in your current system
where do i get an economy scanner?
I believe the blueprint can be bought in the Anomaly
It's a ship upgrade
once it's installed you can use it via the quick access menu
and where do i see skull systems?
cant seem to see them
for that you need a conflict scanner. Same as the economy scanner, blueprint can be bought in the anomaly, and its a ship upgrade
kk thx
Still recommend checking the guide bk linked, it goes more in depth
what are the coolest ships in this game. im gettign living ship rn and have a bunch of sentinels
it's kinda personal preference i like the ones i build
the conflict scanner costs nanites that i dont have....
Guys how can i be able to teleport to pirate stations from a pirate station?
ill do a nexus mission
What do you mean, exactly? Pirate stations you've previously visited should be accessible from the teleporter in another pirate station, but non-pirate stations are not accessible. Inaccessible stations will show as "Network Restricted" / "Clearance not granted"
Similarly, pirate stations are not accessible from non-pirate stations
@bronze crypti started out buying and scraping ships and selling the upgrades for nanites
ships are expensive
you can buy distress signal maps, and have a few of them send you to crashed ships. From there you can repair the launch pad and pulse engine and have them salvaged at a space station
how do i override doors?
ok
most ships scrapped with this method give about 2-5m units
but its not as reliable. Distress maps often lead to abandoned buildings instead
(use them from space instead of planet surface for better chances, in my experience)
if you hunt the sentinel ships you can always scrap them too
oh yeah, those give like about 15m when salvaged
they are even more money
how do i hunt the ships?
Anyone know why I can only name things in all caps, when I played about a year ago I named things in lowercase but now it's only letting me type in caps
i always fight them
and how do i override locked doors?
from planet buildings?
yh
shoot them
im in this nexus mission
exterior
does it have a gun symbol on it?
reinforced door with a gun symbol
yeah, shoot it
kk
beware the sentinnels that will come
and yeah, for future reference, if it's got a gun symbol, you're intended to shoot at it with a weapon, if its a diamond it's with the mining laser
I have a bugged out distress signal that won't complete, I can't abandon the quest, and it wont let me use another because of it. Any suggestions?
Oh, it's happened to me. Don't recall how/if i fixed it.
If no one already know the answer, maybe try going far away (like space station), save, reload, and return?
I'll try a space station or soemthing. I've already restarted my whole game
Hello there! So i was wondering, does multiplayer only happens on Anomaly and Expeditions? Or the galaxy is so vast that its really low chance to meet other players in planet etc? I mean, i know the game is mainly single, but never though about it before lmao
Whole new system, already restarted my game, the works. I still can't quit the quest and going to the area and doing everything doesn't remove it 🙁
The galaxy is just that big
when two players reach the same system, they're matchmade together (if multiplayer is enabled for both)
Hi, can anyone help me? I built a ramp and wanted to build a flat floor on top, but I can't connect the floor properly; it keeps rotating instantly.
Pretty much the galaxies (yes, multiple) are so vast it's real hard to find anyone. However, if you go to a place many people have gone (example, community highlight locations and surroundings, or recent weekend outpost mission) you're more likely to find folk
So there is a chance meeting someone when i have multiplayer on? :3 Thats nice, feels like mmo yet its single , Hello Games did really great job with this game, i hope for LNF be also so goood
where the hell are teleporters in the anomaly?
Sometimes the objects consider something as in the way when technically they should work with each other, which is annoying. You might have to free-place one of the two
The teleporter is in the huge left room
yh thx
is there some reason why containers cannot be sorted like other inventories like suit and ship? it would save alot of time
you can do it in the freighter, thought yeah, it's a bit of a pain option's not available from the direct interface
ohh im very new to the game so i did not even unlock freighter yet, is some big storage there?
when viewing a creature's stats, do the lengths of these bars actually mean anything?
You can add the storage units to the freighter as rooms. Once installed, in the freighter inventory tab (where the exosuit, multitool, starship tabs are) you can select the storage unit sub-tab and use the sort button there
where do u get walker brain?
Is cross play available in switch?
kill sentinnels, progressively pissing them off by killing each wave. On the last wave a giant sentinnel walker will appear. Kill it and you can get its brain
They do, that's the relative range they'll be able to reach (when fully scanned at least)
anyone know why my friends ship has turned tiny on my screen 😭
sentinnels are so annoying is there another way?
On Switch 2 it's supposed to, though the latest updates have taken a bit of extra time to roll out on Switch 1 & 2
oh thats cool thanks
so cute

aw man
I think you can randomly get them from other uncommon sources. I know I did once, but dont remember how, and it was quite rare

Buying Suspicious Packet (Goods) from the Contraband Dealer aboard Outlaw Stations
either way, an easy way to cheese them (once you have a decent weapon) is to summon them near a building of some sort. Sentinnels are bad at finding you when you're inside a building, and it acts as good cover
well for that to happen i need a skull system
Then just find one
but the scanner for it
install an Economy Scanner
the Economy Scanner is far cheaper to install, only requiring 5 Microprocessors and 1 Wiring Loom
you can theoretically jump randomly to new systems until you stumble into one
they're uncommon, but not that rare
but doesnt it need a conflict scanner?
need? no. But it makes it much easier
No, an Economy Scanner also works.
It's equally easy for both to locate an Outlaw System, at least just by the icons
Outlaw Systems have both a unique economy and conflict tier, both represented by a skull
I believe yellow systems have the highest chance of being outlaw systems
ive been searching and cant find a single outlaw system
Do you have the Economy Scanner fully installed?
Can you see the economy data of systems that you have not visited so far?
With only an economy scanner, this is how they look like
note it's lacking the stars denoting economy strength, and instead has a tiny skull by the economy type icon
is that an outlaw system?
can i change my atlas ending so i can choose a new galaxy, or did i mess up permanatly by choosing the other option
I accidently selected refuse
You cannot redo the choice (unless you have a save prior to reload which is unlikely), though you can still reach every galaxy in the game regardless, via core warping
holy im so dumb... An outlaw system is next to the system im currently in............
the skull was so tiny
Yes. It's harder to spot, since the skull is not as obvious as with the conflict scanner, but technically visible
awe man, i wanted a free galaxy choice
You still have the option to teleport to three other galaxies from these featured bases at the space anomaly teleporter. The first two here are in lush galaxies, while the third one is a normal galaxy like Euclid
even 256?
All galaxies can be reached regardless of any choices you make
even 256, via joining someone already there through multiplayer
all of the others can be reached via core warp from the prior galaxy
or lucky portal lol
wait i forgor, ignore me
lucky portal?
im being silly
as we were made to be
is there some reason why my base is switching colors on its own?
mid build, or post build?
It shouldn't do that, but sometimes mid build the colors visually show as their prior color
saving and reloading fixes this
i painted it like 30 minutes ago and it switched back to red
but wierd thing when i acess the color it shows its repainted as it should be
it shows the right color
yes, then it's the bug I described
save and reload to fix this issue permanently for these objects
Is there a natural cap on creature stats? (And have we found any at that cap...)
one question
if i uploaded the base with computer should i upload it again when i reload or it should be fine as it is?
Fine as is
where do u sell the things u get from sus packets?
Like the upgrades? You sell them at tech merchants. There's one in outlaw stations, the Salvage Dealer, they're to the right of the large gutted hauler, in a tent
thx
Question, the default max stock of any space station is pre-determined, correct? So I could, in theory, tabulate the max stock of say suspicious packages and use that to determine the best set of space stations to hop?
How well does this game run on an rtx4060 with a 13th gen i7 and 16gigs ddr5 ram?
on what resolution?
1080p
I have a laptop with rtx4060 laptop GPU, but 32 gigs of ram. Runs pretty well.
Also 13th gen i7
👍🏻
Yeah should be ok
I run 4k with a 5080, I extrapolated down to 1080p and 4060 should be well within acceptable range
I normally have DLSS on
I have DLSS on quality
K
How bout 6x FG?
Basically 4060 has about 1/3 the hardware power of a 5080, but 1080p is a 1/4 of the resolution, assuming that performance scales linearly with resolution, roughly speaking, 4060 should be more than capable of handling NMS at 1080p at similar framerates
i get a solid 120 fps on ultra 4k with a 4060 .....minus the bubble planets lol
whats this option
I need help getting a ship, the glyphs arnt working
Are you in the correct galaxy?
those look like underwater mines
portals are not intergalactic
yeah its euclid
Is the ship in a purple system?
yes fr
doesnt say but im guessing, would i need to upgrade my ship?
you'd need the atlantid drive
nutss

Worlds Part 2 Content
How to get started...
📖 Warning: Purple systems are end-game content so you must finish certain quests before you can access them.
- Complete the Artemis Path (the main story of the game).
-# >!faq-artemispathin #bot-spam shows the steps. - Atlas Eternal must show in your mission log, once Atlas Path is completed.
- Find a Harmonic Camp and release the multi-tool seal.
-# >!faq-interceptorin #bot-spam shows how to find them. - Warp to trigger: They Who Returned and complete the Autophage missions.
-# >!faq-echoesin #bot-spam for more info. - Return to space, aim towards empty space, and engage Pulse Drive, disengage when you see the quest's Space Encounter.
- New Mission: In Stellar Multitudes.
🛑 Warning: Do not leave the Atlas Station system you'll go to in the quest without visiting its space station or claiming a base computer on one of its planets.
- Finish the mission to reveal all purple systems on the galaxy map.
!faq-starcolorin #bot-spam for more info.
These are the known steps as of update 5.5 Worlds Pt II (<t:1738163940:D>) and are subject to change.
-# See patch notes »

lord this is gonna take forever
And just an addendum, it's not just the drive you need, you need to complete that whole quest, the purple stars are not accessible (barring exactly one) until you complete that quest
Are there any base parts that appear solid or cover stuff up but can be walked through?
can players give units?
iirc not units directly but you can give items on the anomaly (that the recipient can then sell)
ah kk
I believe rugs work similarly
"New" player, need help with glipps. Ive been playing solo just exploring for a while, now i want to actually use the teleporter. Ive watched the youtube guides on gliph search, but the system they showed is littered with bait bases
any easier way to just get gliphs?
The final steps of the artemis path start granting glyphs for just about every jump, i believe
use your visor at every starbase to look for a traveler it will be glowing and it will lead you to its grave and you get a glyph
Very nice :)
lucky you, i lag lake crazy in multiplayer systems
dammn
@summer lantern
well idk what to choose
spoiler
mb
But yeah. I only started playing a few months ago. I got some experience, but I'm no expert
Still, that is a personal choice
what did u choose?
Reward-wise, i dont think it matters. Just changes the narrative outcome
so what did u chose?
choose*
Someone gave me a starborn phoenix and I’m on console. I was wondering is it even possible for me to claim or is someone just messing with me?
I still think it's a personal choice, up to the one playing to decide. You're the one that gets to decide what is best.
But if you really wanna know what i chose:
||An ending can be better than endless futility||
#nms-legacy-ships message players can give ships to each other through a small glitch
||so u put an end to their suffering?||
Spoiler alert
correct
Ok
Again, ultimately, should be your choice
Is the "Starborn Phoenix" here an item in your inventory?
Yes
I figured I just wanted to ask thanks for the help
It's not intended to be obtainable, it can only be gotten via save editing
Some players give those out to confuse newer players unfortunately
Yeah I figured I started a week ago
They only exist to populate the info in the Quicksilver Synthesis Companion's menus
hypocrits tbh
mild confussion hardly sound malicious. Just a lil harmless fun
So has there been any tips identified yet to find an SSS creature?
Other than maximize how many different fauna species you find, no
It seems fully random per the species
Do holo terminus have a function after the main questline, other than a photo mission target?
portal coordinates. If a player uses that on a portal they can reach the system corresponding to those glyphs
ah kk
anyone wanna visit?
what are walkers brains for?
since it's from the main questline, it's probably ||for the center of the galaxy||, but if you open photo mode, you can see the ones for your current system
the S class drive
how many do i need
i think js 1
how i open photo mode?
a few installable technologies require it, but can also be traded to mercenary guild envoys for reputation
quick access menu, right-most
i got a new multi tool, but its kinda bad, how do i equip my other one?
quick access menu, utilities
tysm
how do i focus energy on my starship?
yh
there's a button for that
think it's D-pad up on controller, or G on keyboard
unsure about the keyboard one tho
what are vortex cubes for?
To be honest, other than to sell them and part of some quests, I have no idea
Experts chime in?
How hard is it to use the wire glitch? I wanna make a landing pad for my corvette but I gotta use the wire glitch to do the thing for it to work
whats the best way to get units? (i wanna buy a freighter)

I know that reach ship type has its own bonuses, which appear within a range. Lets say I find a class b fighter with a almost maxed damage, will increasing the tier to s result in the bonus being proportionally the same, or will it be completely rerolled?
Thanks for clearing this up
Any suggestions on what to do for a settlement construction site that doesn't have a terminal next to it for the materials?
Whats the best ship type?
Up to you, each one is for different purposes but really all of them can be upgraded to do everything eventually
how do u go down on a flying creature
not an option
only turn left, turn right and speed up really. Some kinda have functionality going back and forward but idk
ive seen that orange exotic ship in the anomaly before or something similar how do u get that octopus looking engine? is it i cant tell
Squid exotic ships make up 1/20 of all exotic ship designs, each system only has one exotic ship design
unless you talking about living ships
in that case there's a !faq command for them
is it just a very rare thing to see? and its just like random or?
im talking about that orange exotic one in the photo i replied to
Yes, as only 5% of all exotic ships are squid ones
does it look like a normal ship, or an eldritch living thing?
1 in 301 chance 😢
ah, mb
Yes, exotic ships are a 1 in 301 chance to spawn as any ship in the system
ive never seen an exotic ship before i dont think
brooo thats so cool i want it
There's aslo this design
How are folks getting multiple gene edits as a result of one arena battle? What's the mechanic?
i would think that fighting creatures with higher levels would be a factor
I WANT IT
I want it
not mine lol
LOL
whats the best way to get storage thingies for the starship?
like the item that lets you expand the storage by 1 box
buya higher class starship
how would that give me the item
missions at a space station, and i believe some explorer envoys if your reputation with them is high enough
frigate expeditions sometimes give some too
how long did it take u to complete main story line?
uff, cant say for certain. I took a break early on, then really got into the game. However, i postponed the main questline until i had finished most side quests I'd been given, plus building up my resources, bases and such
Salvage the ships to be given a chance at some
what for recources should i get?
So can't say with certainty how long a straight forward main questline run would've taken me
like stock up on
First I'd make sure system-jumping is a non-issue. Ensure warp cells or warp hypercells are easy to come by/craft, plus maybe upgrade to make 'em more efficient
after that, make sure I can repair stuff with ease. Good amounts of carbon, condensed carbon, ferrite in pure and dust form, tritium, di hydrogen
people at the anomaly are generous. i have like 30 warp cells so i dont think i need to stock up on those
ok
consistently, with an economy scanner in your ship
alternatively, with an exocraft radar
lacking those, you can try your lack with charts
are those the resources i need? or are there more i need and how much of each
@summer lantern
where can i use these
In the anomaly, there’s a little kiosk to the right of the nexus and expedition terminal
ohh thank you

These are core resources I'd reccommend. Not necesarily these amounts, but they come in use often
holy shit thats alot
primarily you want carbons, ferrites, sodium, dihydrogen, and tritium (this one can be replaced by pyrite), and maybe some copper and/or chromatic
what kind of ship is this?
i think ill first finish the story line
looks like an explorer
for how much did u buy it?
i didnt im in photo mode its a random ship
An explorer is one of the common type of ships
ah k
to add to this, pyrite is a better replacement for tritium for pulsing, but it can only be found in hot planets or refined. Uranium is a good replacement for launch fuel
solar is best for launch fuel
I prefer pugneum
So someone gave me a bunch of things and I sold them for the units, what should I buy without giving me too much of a headstart.(9h playtime)
launch fuel isnt a problem. the starborn pheonix came with automatic recharging
There really isnt anything prohibitively expensive or hard to obtain that you can buy, and youll make more than enough money to sustain buying ammo or emergency resources passively by just wandering. Honestly i would just say treat yourself to a cool ship or multitool if you find one.
Money is
Kind of just a number in this game really
is sitting at a trading post in a 3 star system a decent way to find an exotic ship?
Ok thank you
eco tier doesn't matter, and saving and reloading after 5 ships have landed can speed things up
how to get the familiar role?
saving after 5 ships have landed and reloading? or saving, 5 ships land, then reload
are there paradise moons?
how much?
So why does
not like being shared planets, it seems to sigh when I share with it planets
but not fauna/flora
didnt check the price, but it was C class, so prolly about 1.5m?
ok, 2 more showed up. one for 6m, another for 7m
Yes, equally as common as their planetary variants, per how uncommon moons are compared to planets
...
how do i find one?
with low gravity
Just look around, a freighter scanner room helps a lot
They never have that
only dead worlds have low gravity
moons dont have low gravity?
oh
no, they have full, standard gravity, unless they are dead biome
indicated by rusted metal
i like being able to fly for long
some dissonant worlds can also have low gravity storms, but dissonance counts as a sentinel level that disqualifies paradise planet/moon
(it has corrupted sentinels patrol around)
but it's just a word
and how do i increase my starship slots?
At any Starship Outfitting Terminal, using either Storage Augmentations or boatloads of Units
you can unlock either Cargo or Technology slots here
can anyone tell me what that red icon on the bottom right of my screen means
backpack's full
where do they think im gonna get 56 mil units?
from my ass?
yeah, i dont even bother with that option.
It's best to just seek capacity modules
from where can i buy them/
at a space station?
can't buy them in most cases
salvage ships for them, claim them from guild envoys, do mission board stuff for them
Usually you get them from scraping other starships
well they gave me an exosuit expansion slot but idk how
Keep in mind you can adjust difficulty options to have lower costs or even free purchases
exosuit merchant at a space station and the anomaly have a station besides them to apply them
I've seen people with triple S of this guy and the robot mouse but my guys aren't hatching like that. How do I get mine to hatch triple s?
I'd recommend toning down the language
kk
Heck my tiny mouse keeps coming out triple C
It's an option the developers added to the game for players to use it
Not appropriate here @bronze crypt.
yh mb
Adding on, no judging of other player's playstyle, everyone have their own personal preference
I don't think you can for the exped ones, but bone cows can be found on planets in purple systems
actually, some have reported that reloading to a save prior to claiming their eggs from the merchant can reroll it for some but not all
it's weird
oh, I've seen people with triple S mouse as well. Thats sad.
Yea, I have been trying that myself but isn't working from what I can tell.
they could have gotten those via save editing possibly, idk
How do i get myself an exocraft?
Wtf i am so confused . So here it shows the gold is installed ( in freighter) but if i land the same ship on the ground it shows the gold is not there and asks for gold . I am so confused bruhh
The gold just vanishes the moment i take my ship (repairing it) out of the freighter
How
Is it true we can get a triple S squid as a reward?
@summer lantern
For maxing out creatures?
I have a question about making a... idk a proper civilization with my friends. As in recognized. What steps would I need to take? If this is the right channel for that of course...
Go to the anomaly, on the second floor in the back one of the things sell geobay blueprints.
Then you build them on a planet, and you have an exocraft
Tysm
Is it a known bug with corvettes going to third person view in planet atmosphere and having it zoom your camera wayyyyyyyyyy out or is this some kinda of consequence of my ship construction/layout?
kk thx
.
can derelict i land on a derelict freighter with a corvette?
Yes, there are two light spots above the doorway into the derelict freighter, those are corvette landing spots
thanks

It's most likely due to that the gold is in your freighter and you don't have matter transporter installed, so when you land the ship on the ground, it doesn't have access to the gold
but when it was in your freighter, you do, so it shows as you have it
easy way to solve this is go back to your freighter and move the gold into your inventory, or unlock matter transporter and install it on your freighter, either works, but eventually you will want to do the latter, as doing so effectively makes your freighter cargo part of your exosuit inventory
no no i already installed it
but it shows that i havent installed gold on it once i land
If you already installed it, then you can ignore that it asks for gold
but it keeps asking for gold once i take it out of freighter so it becomes confusing
Basically, if the part that you need to use gold for is fully lit up, it's considered repaired
if it is pulsing, it's showing you that you have the material to repair now.
yes i got that but once i take it out ,the bar shows i need to put gold once again
If the icon for part that requires gold is fully lit up, you can ignore that it's asking for gold
okok
the game will remember that you already fed it gold if you already did
Where do I get the boundary horror egg for maxing out 20 creatures?
I found a toxic SSS xeno pet on a planet. I've forgot to get the coordinates the planet so I can share with others. Is it possible to track back the homeworld of a pet?
Where do I get the boundary horror egg for maxing out 20 creatures?
Please refrain from sending the same message across multiple channels back to back, you may trip our spam filter and get auto muted
Yes, you could go through all of the toxic and swamp worlds you've recently discovered in the discoveries screen. At worst, I think companions have a universal address that could be viewed with a save editor to find their homeworld, not sure why they have that though or if that's even accurate, have never resorted to using that so far
how do i know which items are good to sell in specific economy’s? Like how do i know which category they fit in like tech or minerals
is there a symbol or a tag that shows what it is?
if it's not contraband, it'll have a red or green percentage on the demand
green means profitable
The item description will also say what economies demand those items, iirc
contraband will pretty much always be green when selling (assuming supply wasnt saturated)
Hello, does the save and reload work with getting a better sentinel ship from harmonic camps, please?
Yes, but it's still quite tedious because you need to fly to the crash site every time
the thing is game will take a restore point once i reach the crashed site so that will ruin the saved restore point or will still work?
Yo do we have to do the whole story to get staff multitools? I cant remember
Just FYI, harmonic camps are reusable, so saving and reloading really doesn't do all that much
ok thanks
Yes, the entire main story
as well as another small thing #nms-commands message
Rip, oh well
To answer your question, the issue with restore and reload with harmonic camps is that you will need to spend time to fly from the camp tongue crash site so it's guaranteed to overwrite the action based save (getting out of the ship), and there is a good likelihood that you will overwrite the time based auto save too unless you can be quick, it's probably just better to make a base at the harmonic camp and teleport back there to roll for sentinel ships
And to be perfectly honest, scrapping two ships is basically enough for you to upgrade an C class ship to S class
@stuck berry is it possible to check the class of interceptor by using the visor before going through with repairing the ship?
i get nanites from scraping to upgrade from c to s?
Yes, of course it is, it's class is always displayed in the inspect menu for it when you are tasked with taking stuff out of it and see it's pilot interface
You get a lot of units, which you can the use to hop pirate stations for suspicious packages to sell for nanites. 2-3 interceptors should be enough to buy enough packages to get there 85k nanites you need
Amazing thanks a lot, appreciate it
It shows the class in this menu, which appears before repairing it
ignore the struggle
Thanks
While at the freighter, I thought I would take a look at the squadron... Well, this is what popped up! Has anyone else also encountered this?
(sent a bug report anyway)
Yes, this issue will be fixed in the next patch
it is already fixed in Steam Experimental
Excellent! Thank you for the heads-up!!!
I just got a pirate dreadnought and the weapons on it are destroyed. Will they be fixed or removed bc visually it looks annoying
If you call it in it'll spawn with the guns fixed
If you ever switch a setting in survival mode, and later on swap it back, is the save still going to be displayed as being in survival, and yielding the achievement for reaching the core of a galaxy in said mode?
what is the best usage for the pirates transponder if i dont need units atm, please?
give to envoys
okay thanks a lot
What exactly do retroviral pellets do? Is it just like rare candy where it gives a level up or something?
are the crashed sentinel ships classes randomized?
exactly!
They're not easy to come by. A few methods include:
- Space station mission rewards
- Nexus mission rewards
- Envoy free supplies (require leveling up respective guild rank)
- Derelict freighters
- Frigate cargo pods
Got it
By frigate cargo pods do you mean like raiding capital ships or the crashed freighter containers?
raiding capital ships, inspecting which ones contain frigate modules
but now that you mention it, think they can also appear in crashed freighter pods
Alright
Even still, they are quite uncommon
I'm currently on a trip to the galaxy core without portals, passing through every space station checking for envoy supplies and missions, and i still haven't gotten every upgrade
wish does the most people chose for the first time?
i went with normal
is this normal?
I scrapped a starship for 34.5M units but i didn’t get any of them is that a glitch?
You get the money in the form of parts in your inventory.
ohhh
They Say something "only valuable to sell in stations" or something
does the price change demanding on the economy?
like where do they sell more
it has to be a high tech economy right
or manufacturing
Not sure but i don't think it matters that much. I just sell them as soon as i break the ships
Do normal
Survival is just a bunch of small annoying changes ive noticed
I personally like survival but theres no reason to play it really unless you want things to be more difficult for no reason
If i alreadz have companions, they wont lay eggs anymore right?
I have just come upon this on a planet, and I wonder... Can someone pickup the player's beacon if multiplayer is turned off?
Or milk
They will, you just have to let them "roam" at a planet with the same climate as their original one
Not cooking stuff, no
Then, they will be eligible to lay an egg once every 24 hrs... sry... I meant egg for reproduction... No cooking eggs that's true
Ah okay
If it's a part of an uploaded base and the owner isn't in-system, then no. If they are, they'd need the permissions set correctly
I think I left one next to a derelict freighter so that I would find it next time around...
there it is
It looks like a trap, there is an open door at the other side
Can i check the range of the livestock unit?
Could somone help me ? please i am in one of my colony and i im stuck behind shelves
Try a reload, if still stuck after that you may need to try an earlier autosave/manual save load.
how do i access manual saves? i already try to reaload
Whilst in the game you're stuck in, select Options and on the right you'll see the SAVE DATA list to load a previous save.
wait i change my game language realoded my save and it unstucked me! how ?
But always thanks for the help
anyone know the glyphs to the edge of the galaxy?
?? not sure on that one, likely coincidental and the couple of reloads finally jolted it, but good to know sorted.
?
yeah its more likly to be that lol
try these
it's not huge, probably about 20-40u or so. remember that animals only stay around when you're around
try asking around #nms-lfg-or-trades or use service bot https://nomansapp.com
works on all, yeah
does economy level affect the class of sentinel ships? I know it does with normal starships you can buy
yep
is there a percentage chance that i can see

Whats the best way to farm void motes?
yoo bk one more question
there's not many sources; personally, i just go out and find a planet with an easy autophage mission pool: stuff like delivering resources, crafting basics, etc. scrapping atlantid tools also isnt a bad way, if you got the nanites to burn
always feel free to ask as much as needed; what's up?
what would be the best way of get a staff
How do I find a place with atlantid tools?
- first, they're quest locked, so you'd need to complete
they who returnedquest first. have you?
after completing they who returned, every korvax monolith will have a discordant interface to get them from
Alr alr
like glowing ourple
did you do the autophage quest? goto catalog&guide, collected knowledge, left side bar: do you see autophage?
Is there a way to disable autoclimb?

Make sure the steps below are completed.
⚠️ Use #nms-commands for FAQ commands below & check #nms-questions for the latest details about the update.
- Finish the Artemis Path (main story).
Run !Faq-ArtemisPathin #nms-commands. - Lift the Seal from a Harmonic Camp.
Run !Faq-Interceptorin #nms-commands. - Warp to any system via a starship and wait in space for the quest to start. If you triggered a freighter battle when entering the system, warp to another.
❗ This information has been verified as of <t:1694212090:D> (after Update 4.44) & is subject to change.

With update 4.44, completion of the mission, A Trace of Metal is no longer required. A Settlement used to be needed -- except on Switch, where you'd have to trigger it by warping 25 times.
not that i'm aware of
Can I use something else in order to make a hole in cylinder rooms? So that I can use a jetpack?
Bcs that autoclimb consumes a lot of time
not that i recall
suggestion: use short range teleporter
You are a genius
Didn't think about that
yeah, should work nicely
For salvaging a starship for the autopahage do i need to keep the components?(the money value option)
yeah, keep the items you get after scrapping it for units, the money value option
Im lost in all the mods xD went in to check just a few icon mods for them to be colorful now Im half way into l2k mods and cant stop 🤣 some color change here ore colors change there ect ect is it bad thing by any chance?
can i have more than one freighter at the same time? And does it expand my squadron? Because I only have 1 ship in the my squadron and idk how to expand it
nah, devs wont care - and about mods in multiplayer for example, see <#nms-modding message>
- nope, only 1 freighter at the same time
- goto freighter bridge, fleet management terminal - manage squadron: do you have any squadron free slots?
@alpine knoll that said, squadron pilots dont help much tbh, you'll do a lot more damage than they ever will. ship stats of the pilot dont matter, just looks.
so i just wasted 13 mil 
dont worry, can make that back almost in a hearbeat
i know i got 100 mil from just selling sentinel ships
i can do that but wb nanites
can I plant stuff in these (settlement)
If I wanna build a nice looking Corvette, where do I get parts? I built a few in creative but can't seem to find those parts in survival
when you’re scanning planets out in space, look for one that says salvageable scrap
it’ll have the same logo as the buried salvaged data
Is this the only way to get parts?
and it’s going to be yellow once you’re looking for in on the analysis scanner
you could also buy them at the corvette shop in space stations but those are limited
Buy for creds?
👍
lots of strategies, e.g. sus packets tech/arms, see !faq-nanites for more
nope
Hey guys, how do I get my visor to show the class of creature? Apparently this is possible to see a creature xeno battle stats and class just through the visor?
yeah, just keep progressing main story if this is a new char, also have at least 1 pet, then go talk to oceanus npc at the anomaly
that is really lame i wont lie lol
!hg
Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
would be nice at least that they'd have plants in them growing, if we had selected settlement to produce plant resources
yea anything but empty, it even is lit up green like it has power 🙁
By main story, you mean just keep doing the stuff that oceanus says? I'm up to the part where I've defeated the champion npc and oceanus wants to play again
i mean the artemis path (awakenings, alone amidst the stars, ghosts in the machine, etc) - do you have at least 1 pet? should be 1 the minimum, but try having 2
I'm not sure what is the artemis path. I completed something for sure.
"New beginnings" is what my log says
I have multiple pets
I've also done "atlas eternal"
then if have pets (at least 1-2) by this point you should already have the new visor mode available afaik. try to restart the game if you havent already
That's weird. Is there some sort of technology that needs to be installed?
How ling does it take for a gas collector to fill up?
no
do you mean a gas extractor, or an atmosphere harvester?
Ok thanks for the info. I might have to submit a bug report
The atmosphere ine and can it collect different gases depending on where it is?
atmos harvester will need 1h to complete an extraction cycle. gas it will extract depends on planet biome. strongly recommend moving on to gas extractor mines instead - atmos harvesters will most likely need to be babysitted while they're working to avoid losing resources.
Oh im not needing this ling term i just need enough to get a god dam super conductor lol
see <#nms-questions message>. if i need small amounts of gases, i just raid sentinel depots. i prefer to be on the move than to stand still
Whats the easiest way to find the outposts?
exocraft radar, or secure charts
Fff so basically wondering around and subble upon em
with an exocraft or a chart you dont wander around - you scan/use a chart, you get a marker, you fly there
both an exocraft and a secure chart are well within your reach, if you got anomaly access
roamer takes like 4 salvaged data to unlock if you dont have it yet, base radar tech costs like a hundred nanites or something cheap like that
secure charts, all it takes is having some nav data to exchange for charts
Alr alr and what the ucon look like when im close to one?
when you're close to any building that you've not identified yet, it'll be marked as "unknown building"
using a chart - it cant really get much easier than this
I just don't have any navigation data or else i wouldve done it that way 😭
@charred trout

To be able to get specific planetary charts from the Station Cartographer, we need nav data. Easily gathered from lootable objects around Space Stations.
Alternative sources:
- Some Component/Tech Vendor npcs in Minor Settlements/Planetary Archives;
- Waypoint/windmill save points, often next to buildings, the first time they're interacted with.
- Ancient Data Structure clusters on some planets;
- NPC Settlement Tower buildings (once per day, A-class building required);
- Barrel Fabricator decorations;

obtain nav data
nav data is "everywhere"
alternatively, spend some salvaged data and some nanites to get an exocraft geobay and the needed radar tech
none of these things will take a long time to do, from scratch
I already got the exocradt all hooked up with the stuff
get to the depot, see what's in them, if not what you needed, move away for a bit, scan again
I keep forgetting that the radar upgrades have to be manually used sometimes
yo bk question
whats da question
do you have a base in the 50th galaxy i could go too?
not sure sorry. try asking around #nms-lfg-or-trades or just use star cabs
!starcablink
im trying to reach it
Oh right. RE creature survey mode. I just realised I had to cycle through the visor to see the stats. Oops, how do I recall my bug report submission
yeah, it's a new visor mode, like target sweep. cant recall it, just leave it
Can anyone tell me where to find information on xeno rewards and progression?
can you elaborate on "xeno rewards"?
you mean the oceanus>arena league unique eggs rewards?
isn't there a number of pets that you can unlock?
not a reward, in that case. on foot quick menu/creatures/companion register - unlock pet slots there, using nanites, up to 30 pet slots per char
how do i increase ship complexity limit, mine's at 40
if you're on switch1, you can't - tradeoff that had to be done to get them on switch1, probably
omd
so there isn't pets like the crab?
there are planets with underwater crab species you can adopt
I have seen videos with a bunch of pets. One pet is a crab with a cage armor. what are those?
I am currently looking for a specific sentinal capital freighter and using the coordinations given by another player but i cant find it. Although I know i am in the right system because other freighters, that can spawn in that system, always spawn.
How can i find the sentinal freighter? Always hoping in and out of the system? Going around in hyperdrive till i find it?
oceanus league arena rewards
exactly. how bo I claim them?
how good is the vanilla economy for trading, NPC spawning, and long term gameplay - over all these mods I'm seeing that change or tweak things? Most games are better modded 🤔
capital freighters only spawn in freighter rescue battle events. in short, you need to trigger that event in that system. easiest way to do this is to simply drop and claim a base comp in that system, go back to playing "your game", always exit ship in station before warping out until the next battle triggers. when it does, reload restore point, teleport to base comp, warp to uncharted system nearby, exit ship again, warp to target system

Arena League rewards

- Boundary Horror egg: maxed 20 pets
- Corrupted Quad egg: hatched 30 pet eggs
- Geno-Prawn egg: 220 holo arena battles (challengers, system champions, oceanus daily: all count)

awesome, thanls!
tons of players play thousands of hours never used a mod. it's your gameplay experience overtime that will tell you whether the vanilla values are good, good enough, or need tweaking or expanding
which multitool is the best for combat?
Normal start and no tweaks or freebies so far. I was scared to look in Nexus, and my god is worse than I thought. Thanks, that's good to know.
just note that the build you'll use, the supercharged slot layout the tool has - those are very important, more important than having the "right type" of tool.
whats the max supercharged slot? is it 4 like sentinal ships?
How do I collect the other staff parts?
- exosuit and exocraft max at 3, same positions to all players
- supercharged slots on gear (ships, mts, freighters) is assigned by class, C1 B2 A3 S4 (adding more tech slots may be needed to reveal all of them)
farm motes, hop through multiple camps till you obtain the parts you wanted to use
What should I do in nms once I start to get bored and feel like im running out of things to do that interest me
Alr alrr
cool was just still bit worried that I added too much xD, will continue checking some
this is hell
- either find other activities that you havent done yet and might interest you
- take a break from nms, play some other game
dropping 3 hours on a corvette only for it to exceed complexity limit
so if im looking for a good weapon i shoild find one that has 4 superchsrgrd slots in like a square and than upgrade it?
well, kinda depends on what weapon will you be using, not all weapon systems want a 2x2 (4 in a square). but that's pretty good yes.

Multitool Tech Layout
This is just an example of adjacency and supercharged slots. Note that supercharging bonuses always beats adjacency bonuses. Therefore, to maximize tech stats, split apart tech to utilize supercharged slots, as they will yield superior results over maintaining perfect adjacency.
For more in-depth assistance, check #nms-questions & #nms-multitools.
When you farm a planet for interceptors, the appearance is always exactly the same and the supercharge slot positions are different. Are the percentage bonuses always the same when fully upgraded? I have been recording the damage potential (with only the cannon) shield strength, hyperdrive range and manoeuvrability of sentinels fully upgraded to S class with nothing on Supercharge and only the 6 essential items. Cannon, shields, interface and three engines. Every time I had farmed multiple interceptors from the same planet, all their four stats were the same.
Are the percentage bonuses always the same when fully upgraded?
yes, would be, since class upgraded ships will roll innate stats bonuses fixed to ship seed
this happens with other ships too, and multitools
Every time I had farmed multiple interceptors from the same planet
from the same system even, if system had more than 1 suitable dissonant planet
I thought the interceptors got a different seed based on where they were found on the planet because their sc slots were different
When is the next expedition?
no, that happens because the crashed ship site (just like a multitool cabinet) has the ability to override seed locked positions
we dont know sorry
Very good to know. Now I can check one interceptor from each dissonant system and decide whether to farm for good supercharge slot arrangements if the appearance is good, the first person vision is unblocked and the bonuses are good.
Is there a way to calculate what the minimum and maximum values should be for an s class interceptor with only a cannon, shields, interface and the three engine types and none on supercharger?
i'm only aware of this https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Starship#Characteristics, and using a save editor to see
tongue creature...
So far my ranges are 286.5 to 360.8 for damage, 188.9 to 204.8 for shields, 631.1 to 661.0 for hyperdrive and 424.5 to 499.5 for manoeuvrability
Far more variability on damage than other stats
For the different systems?
For different interceptors I have farmed (from different systems) over the last few days.
Based on that it isn’t obvious why interceptors seem to be far more popular than exotics unless it all comes down to fashion.
unless it all comes down to fashion
honestly - for me and many others - it does come down to looks
game will never punish me for me not using "top min maxed gear"
well, i would take interceptor over exotic for the simple reason of still motion hover
True. It really isn’t challenging enough
it adapts to us really
What do you use hover for?
hi any tips for finding savagable scrap?
defensive events, target scanning (finding the mission POI), looking for other ships and locations, and just being able to stop to find a advantagous landing spot - amoung other manuvers
using a barebones corvette so you have autopilot can help quite a bit, as you can just set autopilot and exit seat and use visor to scan the surface for yellow wifi icons on a planet with salvageable scrap on the list. shoot the scraps from the air, no need to beam down or land.
im early game
depending on how early the scanner works well
you could just farm some units first to buy some basic parts -

and then i jsut scan in my corvette?
once you have a few parts and a little liquid cash you can get a basic corvette running - when you pick up your first corvette salv you get log item for building one out
scan and shoot the containers from the air
that's where the time savings are
not having to land/beam down to go mine the container manually
but i still have to land to pick em up
no, that's the thing
see I hadn't tried that one,
they move to inventory
you're shooting the container from the air
the whole sim builds you up while patting you along
the scanner you use is the suit
you just need regular visor - that part of it doesn't change, it's just that you're not on foot, you're inside a corvette walking around with autopilot activated. when you find one with visor, mark it, get in seat, turn around, shoot it, move on
thank you
you'll have more units and parts than you know how tyo use pretty quick if you're collecting salvage parts and building a corvette- and you can just keep changing the basic corvette to your final version as you go
i wanna do the guardians of galaxy one
that's a new one on me

i havent played for a couple years and the cloud saves are stuck at 4% and time out after a while. (last time i played was on a different pc)
that's a steam thing basically
How do you get sentinel ships and what is so special about them?
Is it possible to get off the seat and walk around in the corvette while its not moving in the air?
usually, 2 different ways to get the location of a sentinel crashed ship site.
- carrier ai fragment consumable
- harmonic camp POI
what's special: - sentinel themed core techs, can still use regular ship techs and modules
- crimson core provides a large hyperdrive range and efficiency bonus
- can hover inside atmospheres
- lots of different combos
sure. just brake if you want, then ship quick menu/exit seat
Thanks
Also what do I do with this beside sell it or trade with npc?
yeah, primarily sell, could be donated to explorer guild envoys for standing - usually just sell it off
This sounds cool, I haven't touched the game in years a lot is new to me lol.
I used to just use solar ships for everything
is there like a crafting-recipe-tree-diagram or something like that to visualize what needs to be crafted to get these?
see image
There is one ingame, yes. If you're using an Xbox controller, hover over the Stasis Device, and hit X on it. That'll bring up the tree
perfect. thank u thats exactly what i was looking for
they're pretty cool. anyway, can type !faq-interceptor in #nms-commands for more infos
use the one ingame too. Very practical. Works for any item you wanna craft
I don't really know what I should do in the game these days, right now im still working on getting a hyperdrive and getting some units for a basic corvette.
Guys, I have a question - right now, with all (at least S class) upgrades and supercharged slots, would you all say that the phase beam is more powerful than the infra-knife?
Only issue is im poor
if using a corvette, and having more than 3 phase beam corvette parts on the ship, because of a bug probably, yes phase beam would knock out everything out of the park, including infra afaik
that said, dont count on it remaining it this way forever
ohhhh. Specifically in a corvette. Gotcha
yeah, probably a bug
there's lots of ways to making units for pocket cash, and after you get access to anomaly, you could literally be a multi-billionaire a few hours from that point. scanning for units, buffed in the new ways, could make that happen. you could do lots of things (see <#nms-questions message> for some suggestions)
can you grab laylaps with the gavitiono coil?
I did pick up some scanner upgrades on my first station visit so hopefully I can crank out some decent units now
think so yeah, i dont think they patched that out, just that it wont trigger planet sentinels anymore when you magnetize it
Hi, I’m new to the game and I wanted to know some basic stuff like what should i do after I build a base for the tutorial??
just keep on progressing the main story missions (always the one with the eclipsed sun icon), there's more ahead. for example, through it, soon you'll unlock access to space anomaly, the single biggest source of researchable blueprints in the game like base parts, technology blueprints, etc. be aware that you can not only increase cargo inventory size, but also tech inventory size (before applying the upgrade, switch active inventory or pre select a tech inventory slot, then apply the upgrade). more tech slots, more space for s-class upgrade module stacking, more powerful, more efficient

i finished the nexus weekend mission and my game crashed as i got the "mission completed" message, is there a reason for this
Is there still a method to get the specific living ships listed in the wiki? Going to the location and restarting the mission with local resources seems to just pop the ship into a random location instead of the one right next to you, resulting in a different ship.
!faq-beginnertips in #nms-commands Additionally - Follow the story. Don't get caught up in doing other things, especially before you reach the Anomaly
ty so much, if i may, what is anomaly? it is like a milestone in main story?
You cannot reveal the unknown building POI before restarting the mission. If you reveal it, the game will not use it as a crash site. The method is outlined in !faq-livingship in #nms-commands
Thanks. I couldn't find a method anywhere but a YouTube video, and theirs didn't work.
my dear vietnamese, always have oxygen (so not die) and carbon for your multitool, rest will come by their way sortly.
im being stuck on the first planet in Survival mode, the land burned me XD
better do a normal save 1st and play...survival need to know many things so to continue.
Wait, so, by following that YouTube guide and going up to the ship before saving, it's permanently locked out now to get that specific ship?
how can i find this planet's portal code? ive got no acess to it as all of my space stations restarted
That thing showed just walking up to the ship and it would change right in front of your eyes as you reset the quest.
are u already on it?
oh, so there is an easier mode? but can i still meet other player in that mode, since i bought this game cuz i want to meet random people XD
how come the autophage npcs wear their own custom armour unlike all the other npcs.
Because that's how the devs decided they should look
no, its completely lost with no nearby galaxies that had my bases on, those are the only ones that survived alongside settlements
galaxies, i meant systems
mb
you can meet people in all modes, if you have the multiplayer on. dont know if can meat players from different difficulty saves.
did you land in its station in this system ? if yes, can use the teleporter on it. it will have yoru lasts stations you vizit.
as i said, all of the space stations restarted on my save
i do NOT have them anymore
oh, nice, ty, this is the main reason i buy this game, travel across universe and meet random people XD
since you dont even know the planet's system, i dont thing there is any other way, by seeking randomly all systems you had vizited in your galaxy map.
i know the system, i still keept all of them in my discovery, and been trying to warp there manualy but it might as well be an impossible task with how the game only shows me like 4 systems ahead of me before the trail dissapears
how can i find abandoned ships easier?
like the crashed ones?
on distress signals?
crashed ones
i kinda want a new ship besides the starter one
until i have enough money to buy a carrack or whatever it was called
there are charts that pinpoint you to a distress signal, but the result is quite unpredictable, and more often than not, it's not the claimable crash site
I have uncorrupted my save
those are TERRIBLE for trying to get em up and running as they take way more stuff to fix em up then it's worth it, HOWEVER they make for an great starter source of income to buy an perfectly fine ship off of npcs', simply go to an space station and buy distress signal charts at the cartographer
I return from GLASS
crashed ships are need a lot of repairs to use it, almost all players sell them for creds. since they add ''custom made ship'' in the game, you can make an s class by dismantle them and keep cockpit, engine, wings so to make a custom one.
Did you teleport back to the settlements you had on the original galaxy and see if the list restores them?

If I already went up to a ship that I was trying to use to get a specific living ship because I was following a misleading YouTube guide that did it the wrong way, is there any way to reset that wreck to an undiscovered POI so I can get the only ship I want?
how can i dismantle them? is it a button on the repair interface when interacting with them?
i did, it happend right after xeno arena update and its been 2 galaxies jumps ago already, both times restarted all of the known space stations, already send an bug report about it
is there a list of every autophag-staff component? and do the components have impact if its S- or B- or C-Class?
Anyone knows how to get retrovial pellets
on space stations, left console on the end of it
The head impacts the stats of the staff, but it's also in combination of the terminal itself, i.e. if a head gives A rank, using that same head on another terminal may yield C rank, as random example.
the body and shaft of the staff are cosmetic only
but i need to have the ship working first right? to be able to bring it to the station
?
You only need to repair its launch thrusters and pulse drive, everything else can be left as is
can i upgrade the class of the staff with nanits like other multitools?
You can
just fix the pulse engine and launching thrusters
ok great i have tons of nanites so i can just pick parts that i like
ty guys
np brotherman, enjoy the game
Nvm i understand it now
I actually don't know but you can try buying them from NPC from Trade post or Space station.
See if that helps.
Do xeno arena battles to be given the system champion things rarely, then beat those. Each one heaten gives one
NMS-media only please @clear abyss
Any word on the Egg sequencer being fixed? I want to reduce the size of my egg creature.
No i won't think they will do....
There is a lot of bugs in game haven't been fixed yet...
Importance ones as well.
Is it possible to find a planet with gold as natural resource?
Yes.
I’m so broke right now after I got my first all basic parts corvette, cost way more than I expected
You can get gold from shooting astroids the light blue ones...
Or yellow ones.
You can also get it from NPC.
Hey guys quick question, I’m picking up the game after looooong months without playing, and I forgot how to take my friend to my base.
It doesn’t show on the teleporter despite us being in a group together and when she leaves to join my group she’s in her own base, not mine
It gives so little compared to using multitool with optical laser :(
Get it from NPC if you have a lot of units.
Could also set up a mineral extractor farm #nms-questions message
How much you need?
hi i am new to the game, what are the main goals of the game?
Enjoying the game.
Go to your base yourself, then have her enter the space anomaly and exit it via starship to be given the option to reach your current system
Exploration, basically, but it's a sand boxy game so it's find your own fun
I was aiming to farm gold and sell for units :/ since i'm so broke from getting my first corvette
