nms-questions

[mighty carbon]

Oh you can actually get units in a lot simple ways....

[humble pendant]

And if she doesn’t have the anomaly yet…?

[mighty carbon]

Have you tried trading ships?

[wet sigil]

I would try scrapping interceptors, scrapping even one or 2 would give you enough units to start a corvette with room to spare

[stuck berry]

Then go to the base and have her leave and rejoin

[proven frigate]

I did once, and I used units from that to get the corvette

[mighty carbon]

If you want i can give you some units... Unless you want hard work by yourself.

[stuck berry]

When joining, you're always brought to the hosts current star system

Unless you're already in a system somewhat nearby

[humble pendant]

That’s the thing it didn’t work

Ah alright I’ll try to find her then

[proven frigate]

That is very kind of you, but I prefer working my way to it

😄

[stuck berry]

Well then have her finish the tutorial and access the space anomaly at least, it's usually already advised to do that

[humble pendant]

I did but we got impatient lmao thank you

[mighty carbon]

Ok go to Outlaw system it will trigger a freighter battles once you make the enemies freighter to surrender they pay you 6m units not to destroy their freighter...

In other words we call them dreadnoughts...

[stuck berry]

Not all outlaw systems always begin pirate dread events, only 20% of them do this

also, they may not qualify for those to begin yet

[mighty carbon]

The battle should be triggered after 5 jumps to different systems the last one should be outlaw

[stuck berry]

(may not own a freighter)

[mighty carbon]

It happens after 5 jumps you can try.

[proven frigate]

🫡

[stuck berry]

No, it's 20% of all outlaw systems have guaranteed pirate dread battles

otherwise, they follow the standard freighter battle cooldown of both 3 hours of unpaused gameplay time and 5 warps since your last battle #nms-questions message

[distant plank]

why is the staff yellow and red when the components are Green and Grey?

[wet sigil]

5 jump freighter battle is an entirely different trigger, the 5th jump can be in any stars that isn't uninhabited

[stuck berry]

Procedural color

based on combo of staff head and camp built at

change either variable to change what you get

though this also changes the class of the staff, but that can be upgraded later for a ton of nanites

[stuck berry]

That and it could be the 34th warp or the 7th warp or whatever warp if the 3 hr cooldown hasn't passed first

[wet sigil]

On that topic, can it trigger in an abandoned system?

[stuck berry]

the cooldown is a 2 parter, only a warp done after both are complete will begin one

[tight ferry]

the npc's ships are also randomly generated? like the planet's creatures

[distant plank]

ok so i can just hop from camp to camp until i like the result

[stuck berry]

Yes, it's one of the only ways to get NPCs to land on abandoned stations

[stuck berry]

Yes, each system has a pool of 21 ships that NPCs can use

[wet sigil]

Every star has a set of starships that can spawn in them, the NPC ships are drawn from that pool

Every star has different pools

[tight ferry]

so theres almost infinite variantions of ships? since there are a lot of systems

[stuck berry]

basically yeah, each ship type has a bunch of different parts it can have as well as a bunch of colors they can come in and names they can be given

and each ship type is funamentally different from the rest, there are about 6 ship types that are in the "system pool" that NPCs use

[mighty carbon]

What is this?

[wet sigil]

Even the dominant race of the system has an effect on what ships you can see.

[tight ferry]

damn thats cool ash

i will wait till i find a cool one to trade for

until i can buy my corvette

[stuck berry]

Space encounter, I think it can be talked to but that might only be during the living ship mission
like most space encounters, try talking to it, shooting it, etc, none of them are important

[west apex]

I found this settlement, do I do something with it?

[mighty carbon]

I did talk to it but nothing else happened

[wet sigil]

You can upgrade and build up the settlement until it turns a profit, then you can ask it to make stuff for you

[stuck berry]

Make decisions for it over time so that it becomes better

[lusty galleon]

take care of it and expand, diffrent buildings will give you diffrent utility and also produce materials

[wet sigil]

The event is basically for flavor

[west apex]

decisions, like what?

[stuck berry]

Like approving construction things, settling disputes, signing off on the next good thing happening idk, there's a lot of them

[west apex]

also there is like this unberground thing but idk how to get to it

[wet sigil]

Overtime the inhabitants of the settlement will ask you to make a decision for them, each decision can have different outcomes for your settlement, but some are simply benign like what to name their first born, etc

[west apex]

ah ok

[stuck berry]

that's just the waypoint, nothing is under the ground other than the waypoint

it's just a minor bug

[west apex]

can I leave for now? Will I get notified or something?

[stuck berry]

yes, the mission notifies you

[west apex]

ah ok

ok ty

[lusty token]

its because of woke

[mighty carbon]

Where can i find Iron Vulture Cockpit?

[stuck berry]

From salvaging the Iron Vulture from Expedition 13: Adrift, and nowhere else

you could ask for another player to give you one in #nms-lfg-or-trades, as some have found ways to copy and salvage it repeatedly or just duplicate it's parts

[wanton night]

Hello, guys i got a sentinel starship with 40 weapon slots and only 1 supercharge so now if i upgraded the class where will the supercharged slots appear while its already all opened and only 1 super charged slot, please? will a supercharged slot replace a normal one?

[rough thistle]

They should in my experience

[wet sigil]

One of the slots in the first 3 rows will turn into a SC slot

[rough thistle]

Can I do better then this on my main ship for the layout?

[wanton night]

okay great thanks a lot

[wet sigil]

I can't think of anything except maybe trying to supercharge the weapon instead of the upgrade, but if your current layout does more DPS, then keep that layout

Oh, and switch your crimson core with one of your warp drive upgrades, I think that's better warp range

[deft schooner]

arent corvette refiners meant to grab materials from storage modules?

[rough thistle]

I didn't think SC'ing the weapon did anything

[wet sigil]

Nope

[deft schooner]

I swear its done it before...

[rough thistle]

I tinkered with that and didn't seem to make a difference

[wet sigil]

In most cases, weapons are the first thing to be supercharged, exceptions exist (e.g. Neutron cannon)

[wet sigil]

Did the tooltip DPS not change?

[rough thistle]

Good to know, 2k hours and still learning

[deft schooner]

darn no mod for it either. I swear my refiner had access to everything in my ship.

[stuck berry]

It does, if you have the storage container objects build nearby

[deft schooner]

same room

[stuck berry]

the contents only appear in the "All Inventories" category

they do not have their own category

[rough thistle]

Oh shit, I was looking at the sidebar, not the part, swapping it went from 22k to 34k, Thanks a bunch

[deft schooner]

they arent showing for some reason.

[stuck berry]

Well it's working for me, maybe they're not close enough idk!

[deft schooner]

lemme reload and see

[mighty carbon]

Just to ask is it possible to travel between galaxies or not?

[deft schooner]

yes

[stuck berry]

of course it is, or else we could never reach them

[wanton night]

IS the analysis visor tied to the multitool or the exosuit please?

[deft schooner]

visor

multi*

[wanton night]

thanks

[stuck berry]

we can warp through the core of a previous galaxy to reach the next one, and we can teleport to built bases and visited stations throughout all galaxies

[deft schooner]

and glyphs

[wet sigil]

MT

[stuck berry]

no, we can never travel from one galaxy to another using portals

[wanton night]

thanks

[deft schooner]

I thought glyphs were universal

[stuck berry]

No, they are not

[deft schooner]

that sounds... annoying

[stuck berry]

The entire portal glyph system is per-galaxy

it's like using latitude and longitude to reach somewhere on Mars

[deft schooner]

so you gotta manage to get into the same galaxy as a planet before you can use its glyphs?

[stuck berry]

Yes, or else you are just sent to those coordinates in the wrong galaxy

[deft schooner]

..... hmmm....

[stuck berry]

Are the storage containers significantly far away from the refiner?

[wet sigil]

Hang on, let me double check on my corvette

[deft schooner]

they are in the same Hab

[stuck berry]

Then I'm not sure why it's not working

[deft schooner]

its all in this room

[stuck berry]

as it's working for me still, even across my corvette

[rough thistle]

If your looking for things like system encounters they are the same in each galaxy with the portal glyphs, like a derilict freighter you like to farm in Euclid will be at the same glyph set in every galaxy

[deft schooner]

thats numbers 0, 1, and 2. and number 5 is further away but im not worried about that one

actually

[stuck berry]

I have all 10 of mine built nearby

[deft schooner]

starship storage isnt showing up at all

[stuck berry]

oh that's weirder

[deft schooner]

lemme delete all my storage and place them again.

nope

[wet sigil]

2 questions, 1. Is the storage container you want refiner to grab from actually built? as in the same number storage container

and 2. Did you summon another ship recently?

[deft schooner]

oh I can try re summoning it

[strong bronze]

why cant i see my friends cape?

[deft schooner]

storage 0 has my materials, refiner is in that same room

[rough thistle]

Did you install the teleport receiver on it?

[wet sigil]

Try this: get in and out of your corvette seat

[deft schooner]

I did yes. should I try removing it?

[stuck berry]

Mine has one too so idk

[rough thistle]

Naw, just a hicup I made once

[deft schooner]

nope....

[stuck berry]

It's just how capes work unfortunately

they are invisible for other players

[deft schooner]

im confused so much

tried a reload, tried a restard, resummon,

lemme try swapping ships and then swapping back

THE REFINER IN MY OTHER SHIP WORKS MAN WTF

this is what im supposed to see

im so confused XD

[stuck berry]

I'd definitely advise reporting this as a bug if you keep experiencing it

[deft schooner]

aight. man this is so weird

they get it.

[rough thistle]

Hmm, I;m getting an update right now for NMS

[deft schooner]

really?

[wanton night]

is there a way to craft more than one item in my cargo like naything to press with "E" to craft more than 1?

[stuck berry]

Not really, you can increase how much to craft with one button press but that only lasts for that one button press, it's weird

[deft schooner]

anyone else get a no mans sky update or just that guy?

[stuck berry]

There's not a new one, the latest is 6.33
if there was a new one, it would have been communicated in #nms-news-ticker automatically

[inland orchid]

Hi. I completed the breach expedition and claimed the rewards, but I'm not able to craft the Corvette parts in my inventory. I can only craft them in the Corvette builder and the game refunds me the materials used instead of the parts that I didn't end up using. So I have no way to store parts in my inventory let alone "craft more". This isn't normal since I've seen other players craft and manage the Breach reward parts in their inventory.

[deft schooner]

maybe the game doesnt like my first ship ive made >:C

[stuck berry]

This shouldn't have changed, so I'm not sure why it's like that for you. Deleting the Aeron modules should place them in your inventory intact, unless Crafting is set to Free

[lusty token]

is there any way i can make my organs mature faster

[stuck berry]

only with mods on PC

[lusty token]

im on pc

what mds

[deft schooner]

oh in game

[stuck berry]

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/2685

[lusty token]

i meant the organs not the egg

[stuck berry]

Yes, that's what this does

it makes the mission timers all 30s I believe

[lusty token]

ok cool

[stuck berry]

if that doesn't work, there's this https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1921

[lusty token]

tbh i didnt know there was a mod for a live service game

usualy they are only visual

[pine sigil]

What is this ship?

[lusty token]

like putting bender's model from futurama on mr fantastic

[stuck berry]

the game has built-in mod support, only through it's game data files though, more complex feature stuff or custom models are nigh impossible

[stuck berry]

The Starborn Phoenix, from a free special offer in December 2024 https://nomanssky.miraheze.org/wiki/Starborn_Phoenix
It can't normally be obtained anymore, outside of unofficial means on PC #nms-questions message or getting one from another player #nms-legacy-ships message

[fast siren]

is there a way to give one of my ships to a friend?

[lusty token]

sure but timers seem like a very important thing to be unchanged

isnt htere an economy

[wet sigil]

Nope

[lusty token]

a

[stuck berry]

Not at all, whatsoever.

[lusty token]

nvm then

[gray shoal]

Limited time Steam exclusive free dlc

[stuck berry]

See this post #nms-legacy-ships message

[wet sigil]

Because creative mode existing

[lusty token]

whats the point of multiplayer then tbh

is it just

like animal crossing multiplayer

[stuck berry]

Playing with each other and enjoying the universe together

[lusty token]

yea but that doesnt have to be multiplayer

it can be peer to peer

[stuck berry]

it already is peer to peer

[lusty token]

no... its network

[fast siren]

thank you

[lusty token]

think of it like this, rn we have a minecraft server type of multiplayer

[stuck berry]

No, it's P2P using an initial connection server for matchmaking

[lusty token]

the multiplayer im talkin about is minecraft realms/ lan

[lusty token]

so if 2 guys were to play together and one had a mod that made things significantly faster, would the other person jsut have a disavantage

[stuck berry]

Yes

this is a game that has Creative Mode, so it really is not important

all players can truly play at their own pace

[lusty token]

ima be honest i tought cretive mode made it so u couldnt be on multiplayer at all

[wet sigil]

Incorrect

[stuck berry]

Creative can play with all the other standard gamemodes

[wet sigil]

You can even swap to creative mode when MP is on

[stuck berry]

or simply enable some of it's options

[lusty token]

sounds kinda lame ngl

[gloomy holly]

Ive seen autophage terminals on corvettes, how does the stats roll work when attached to a ship as surely it wont have a set seed tied to it

[stuck berry]

not intended, so we dunno

could be based on position, could be based on ID or something

[lusty token]

maybe mods too

[gloomy holly]

If its based on position thats kind of cool

[lusty token]

aparently

[gloomy holly]

Infinite rolls

[gloomy holly]

Yeah its definitely modded in but Ive seen a few ships with it now

[lusty token]

maybe its a popular mod

[gloomy holly]

Yeah Im gonna have to try and use someones terminal to find out ig

Stowaway for life

[stuck berry]

I think that's one of the objects exclusive to save editing, like it doesn't have a blueprint entry

[gloomy holly]

Think you might be right there as most of them are service bot ships as far as I can tell

[stuck berry]

similar objects exist for stuff like the starship outfitting terminal, starship fabricator and a few other things

the fabricator may work similarly to the Autophage Synthesis Terminal

[gloomy holly]

Yeah its kind of a cool feature tho even tho its not intended like being able to have a terminal on a ship would be cool

[bronze crypt]

Can someone in euclid directly go to the 256th galaxy?

[gloomy holly]

Not seen the starship fabricator yet but I love this community for being open to basically every exploit ever😂

[unborn basin]

I guess no?

[gray shoal]

Everyone who been there and placed a base

[gloomy holly]

Ive never tried but are there 256th bases via the anomaly portal

[wet sigil]

Not without help, in most circumstances

[deft schooner]

does supercharging a mining beam do anything

[wet sigil]

256 is unreachable in the game, as warping through #255 loops back to Euclid

[wet sigil]

It should increase the mining speed

[deft schooner]

wish it showed a number

[wet sigil]

You can test it by timing how quickly it mines through a tough rock/plant

[bronze crypt]

Why is it that way?

[novel sundial]

Where do I get the boundary horror egg for maxing out 20 creatures?

[lusty galleon]

what dose this mean? i dont understand

[visual terrace]

Oceanus

[wet sigil]

I have no idea, dev decision probably

[wet sigil]

Are you on the anomaly when you were trying to use that chart?

[lusty galleon]

no planet

tried it twice

diffrent systems

[novel sundial]

Does the 20 count start after I beat the first champion?

[wet sigil]

Were both systems uninhabited?

[lusty galleon]

ye

[wet sigil]

That would explain why

[lusty galleon]

dose those not have monoliths?

dam

didnt knew

ty

[novel sundial]

I think the 20 creature thing starts after beating the first champion 🙁 I'm sad 😔

[hollow orchid]

any tips on optimizing the game? i get 40 fps after a few hours

[normal olive]

Is the corvette workshop inventory global? Can I access it from any station and use something I put in there at another station?

[strong bronze]

wait thats a solar ship?!?!? i wanted my next ship to be a solar ship and i love the look of that, but ive never seen any parts like that before

[visual terrace]

I have no clue on that one

[wise reef]

yes

[wet sigil]

If you start with normal fps but it eventually drops, restart the game

[fiery escarp]

Is it possible to upgrade your pet to S class if A class?

[visual terrace]

No

[hollow orchid]

ahh okay then i just thought it might of been my pc as ive had a simlar issue

[distant plank]

is there a max count of supercharged slots on S-Class Multitools or in general?

[wet sigil]

4

at least without any save editors

[distant plank]

thats not much

[last oak]

With the help from your tip, I was able to get the ship even though I had previously revealed the unknown building.

What worked was traveling to a different galaxy to initialize the egg, then resetting from a distance. I also switched from offline to online, in case that made a difference.

Thanks again!

[hollow orchid]

thats a cool looking ship

i want to know how to get that

[last oak]

I will help you to get it in just a bit. I need to get a ride from the cabbie service.

[hollow orchid]

nah its fine lol i just wanna know if theres a specific mission for it

if not ill hunt myself

[tiny vortex]

brothers......should i fire this Gek?
i dont really think he even went on an expedition...

[bronze crypt]

What do i even do after completing the main questline

[tiny vortex]

play all the expeditions, thats what im doing

[bronze crypt]

Whats an expedition?

[tiny vortex]

oh you are newer than me 😮

[bronze crypt]

Im still in the main quest

Story line*

[tiny vortex]

every couple of weeks or so, the game starts an expedition, its basically like playing from scratch, but with a theme on missions and you get cool stuff from doing it

[bronze crypt]

Ah k

[tiny vortex]

last one was "Remnant" (exp 21), which focused on new gravitino gun and modules for the colossus exocraft

basically "Life in a day of a garbage collector"

[bronze crypt]

How do u even get an exocraft?

[tiny vortex]

you have 20 more

[tiny vortex]

Anomaly, you buy the blueprints with Salvaged Tech for the platforms for each

[tiny vortex]

In the Expedition you get it in other ways, for the convenience of the .....plot

[mighty carbon]

There are some frigates bugged

So you have to recruit the ones aren't bugged

[tiny vortex]

it came with the Freighter, lazy ass repitlian

[manic vessel]

Every 2-3 months, not weeks. They even skipped it for this update, so even longer between.

[mighty carbon]

Wait i will send you a link

[mighty carbon]

https://nomanssky.miraheze.org/wiki/Frigate

Read from this article

[tiny vortex]

yeah but expeditions last a couple of months, so the space between them is just some weeks isnt it?

[inland orchid]

Oh thank you, it was a free crafting thing. Although I thought I was supposed to be able to craft the parts straight from inventory. At least I can build them on the Corvette builder and then transfer to inventory and craft more from there, so no big deal.

[stuck berry]

You aren't, you can at best hover over an existing part with the blueprint unlocked to "craft more"

[inland orchid]

Yeah

[small crag]

Hey guys, i just got a bug in my base, basically it makes my base parts disappear, and i've seen that im not in the base parts limit, so what can it be?

[stuck berry]

are you extremly high in the sky?

[small crag]

no

[stuck berry]

then I'm not sure, does saving and reloading make anything reappear?

If not, it would be advised to report this to HG

@stuck berry how to unlock the paint styles some of them are locked....

And can you guys help me to pick a colour?

[boreal wolf]

What fo I need to do to be able to see if a system is normal or outlaw?

[small crag]

No

[stuck berry]

Only by completing Expeditions 13 or 17, which can't be done anymore

or via unofficial means on PC #nms-questions message

[mighty carbon]

What colours should i pick am soo confused.

[inland orchid]

The one quality of life feature that I desperately want is ways to hide or organize the current missions on the log. Many quests still take up space in the log and makes sorting through the other ones cumbersome. Especially the main quests and a couple more that never go away.

[small crag]

Unfortunally they didnt gave any sollution, i tried to solve this before, like 3 months or 2, and a AI respond me

[median girder]

New guy here,is expedition loot unobtainable?

[stuck berry]

well it's extremely rare for them to respond at all
outside of the initial automated response that isn't related to AI

[last oak]

You can't actually hunt it yourself, and it may be possible to actually screw yourself out of getting it.

You have to first get your first living ship and then do sort of a finicky process that resets a different ship into the one you want, and it requires a good bit of quicksilver (between like 13K and like 26K, depending on if you already got your first one).

Well, you can, but not without knowing a very specific procedure.

[hollow orchid]

ah i see

[tiny vortex]

paint style that are locked were expedition prizes

[stuck berry]

You could easily just use one Void Egg and reuse it endlessly until you claim a ship, no need to throw them away and pour QS down the drain

[small crag]

Thank you anyway

[stuck berry]

I'm not sure what process you're doing, but it's far less efficient than just using your second Void Egg or onwards to just locate a crash site, see it's not one you like, refuse it to get the Void Egg back for free

[last oak]

You basically have to get a living ship, then buy another living ship egg, then go to a different galaxy to crack it, then look at the planet and coordinates for the ship (https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/The_Heartless_Oufims) then approach within like 350 distance from that ship without actually getting close enough to spawn it in, then press the button under your quest to reset it to your current location, which will put that specific ship there for you.

[inland orchid]

Yesterday I got my first biological frigate, I don't even know how I got the quest I was playing blindly. I had to select a lot of dialoge options, does that affect the frigate stats like Combat vs Exploration?

[stuck berry]

That's the process for grabbing a specific ship documented online, not for getting a living ship design you want in general

[boreal wolf]

What fo I need to do to be able to see if a system is normal or outlaw?

[stuck berry]

It does a big, but that's only for your first living frigate. Following ones are located using Anomaly Detectors #nms-commands message
You can reroll their stats by feeding them different things

[stuck berry]

Either an Economy Scanner or a Conflict Scanner

[tiny vortex]

big skull on warp map xD

[stuck berry]

the former is far easier to install

[last oak]

@hollow orchidJust make sure not to get too close to it before you hit reset on the quest, because I think that's what caused me to almost mess it up before, which I think can be permanent (but I could be wrong, since that's just my understanding from asking here today and finally making it work).

[fiery escarp]

Is it possible to breed a S class pet?

[austere garnet]

Does anyone know the name of this ambient song playing in the background? I've tried multiple song finders and no luck

[stuck berry]

I believe the offspring of a companion will always match it's parents stats

[last oak]

I think if that crash actually becomes "discovered" before you reach it, it just resets the ship to a different location and gives you a different one.

[fiery escarp]

Ohh ok

[last oak]

Anyway yeah, the length of that explanation is why I couldn't get to it immediately. I hope it was helpful!

[mighty carbon]

That's lovely graphics...

You playing on PC?

[hollow orchid]

ah ok lol

how do i get living water

[reef sandal]

i just stumbled on a redacted planet. what does that do?

[fresh cloud]

Where does a relic gate send me?

[plucky sail]

will the new update be releasing on switch 1?

[stuck berry]

Progress Starbirth

[lusty token]

i have

[stuck berry]

A random system

[lusty token]

its hwy i need it

[stuck berry]

The progress it more, it comes from the mission

[lusty token]

for the living ship

[lusty token]

ITS IN THE MISSION

[stuck berry]

It has no other source

[lusty token]

it says "in outer space"

ive been in out space

[stuck berry]

Then pulse in space.

[lusty token]

I HAVE

[stuck berry]

That's what you are meant to do

then pulse more, for longer periods of time, without stopping

[lusty token]

aw i had to pulse longer

[stuck berry]

so that the pulse event triggers

[fresh cloud]

Is there anything special about the system?

[stuck berry]

Just have color filters and sometimes huge minerals/flora on them, not too notable otherwise besides being strange #nms-commands message

[stuck berry]

No, like all systems

[lusty token]

mb, i didnt know a jellifish had access to radio broadcasting

[reef sandal]

okay thank you

[stuck berry]

It will, we do not know when

[steady tulip]

So just a quick question. I’ve recently finished the purge questline and have traveled to the calypso system. The questline I’m up to now is called new beginnings however there is no clear objective to complete. Can someone explain what I’m supposed to do now?

[stuck berry]

New Beginnings has no true objective, it will stay in your log forever

[steady tulip]

Ahh alright

[stuck berry]

just like The Space Anomaly

[steady tulip]

So I’ve completed the Artemis path then?

[stuck berry]

There are also things to do after the main story to unlock more things #nms-commands message

[tiny vortex]

i checked the OST, specifically the planet exploration music, couldnt find a match by ear.

[stuck berry]

There's also https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBO2h-GzDvIYAJ6s5uPQ0Qdyrg2BF9O9F

which is an extended amount of tracks, but I couldn't immediately find any matches

oh and also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZGZxPEp5Ag

[tiny vortex]

99.5%? what does that mean?

[stuck berry]

the record in the wonder catalogue, for "paradise quotient"

a semi-random stat attributed to planets

with bonuses for them being lush, lacking storms and sentinels etc

[mellow olive]

i visited my save from 3 years ago and found it in my records

[stuck berry]

oooh

[stuck berry]

in Worlds Part I, subbiomes rerolled making some records outdated

[mellow olive]

when was that

[stuck berry]

July 2024

[mellow olive]

weird

[tiny vortex]

that shows there is no perfection in the universe,
deep.

[mellow olive]

so i found like the most hospitable planet but never upgrade my exosuit size

[fresh cloud]

Where do i find living ships?

[stuck berry]

Via a Void Egg purchased from the Quicksilver Synthesis Companion for 3,200 Quicksilver

which begins a mission that takes about 5 days to complete (4 large waiting times), and requires 12 of the 16 Portal Glyphs unlocked by the end #nms-commands message

you only need to do the mission once, all subsequent living ships skip the mission but cost an extra 10,000 Nanites to claim

[fresh cloud]

Welp, i cant earn quicksilver

[stuck berry]

Why not?

[fresh cloud]

Every time i try to finish one of those missions at the nexus my game crashes

[stuck berry]

that's strange, possibly try disabling multiplayer?

[fresh cloud]

Doesnt work

[stuck berry]

that is very strange

I already submitted a bug report

[tiny vortex]

tried repairing your files, just in case?
i remember it happened the same when i tried building my corvette the first time

[stuck berry]

If you are on console, clearing your cache can help random issues too #nms-questions message

[glossy silo]

how do I get the little blue sentry to leave me alone?

I completed the questline for it

[lusty galleon]

the same way you enabled it

in your inventory

[glossy silo]

ohhhh thank you

[strong bronze]

i was purchasing starship technology slots and when i got to a new row it just gave me the majority of the row for free? is this normal?

[fresh cloud]

Wdym repairing files?

[severe crown]

Creature question...why might it be that the creature I see has a different look than it does in the fauna list? Not only that, another player standing right next to me sees it the same as on the fauna list and does not se what I see. (I have no mods.)

[fresh cloud]

Doesnt work

[stuck berry]

Fauna can have two genders

which give both genders slightly different randomizations, mainly in the physical features

only one of the two genders is displayed in the discoveries screen

[severe crown]

Makes sense. But why, when looking at the same exact creature walking around, I see one thing, friend sees another.

[stuck berry]

Multiplayer is sometimes poor at syncing

[fresh cloud]

Are there any other ways to earn quicksilver besides missions at the nexus?

[fresh cloud]

I think it might be from version mismatches maybe

[stuck berry]

if that was the case, you would not be able to connect at all (at least for the current versions available)

[lusty galleon]

!faq-harmonicscamp

guh

[wintry escarp]

so i am looking for help on getting the staff multi tool and not sure what quest it is i need to finish to be able to start building one or are they all different?

[lusty galleon]

autophage questline, u need main story finished for it

[stuck berry]

See this post #nms-commands message

[stuck berry]

See this post #nms-commands message

[wintry escarp]

thats what i was looking for

struggled to find it in here

[strong bronze]

the boost means when you press left shift right? not when you actually use the pulse drive

[blazing tusk]

Correct

[strong bronze]

also what exactly does manoeuvrability do? i never really questioned it

[wise reef]

makes you turn faster mostly

[rocky cipher]

this game is too good for my laptop...

[pale slate]

Does anyone know if it is possible to determine the amount of warps to a given planet without glyphs or coords? I found a planet that has a pet that I wanted to get in expedition 8. Unfortunately, I dont know the glyphs of the location and the only way I know to get back is warping an unknown amount of times. So it could take me the rest of the day or the rest of the year, also not even sure if its worth it at this point lol

[weak cloud]

If you visited the planet once, and it's in your Discovery list, you can add the planet to your personal wonders and get the glyphs of it that way.

[pale slate]

I didnt know that you are my hero

[weak cloud]

Also, if it was one of the rendezvous planets, its glyphs are probably posted somewhere online. Maybe even in this discord somewhere.

[pale slate]

I wasnt sure because I didnt know if the singularity engine warped you to a different place or not in the experdition

[gray shoal]

More like rest of your life if u totaly dont know planet coords.

[stuck berry]

Just use glyphs, if you have coords then you have glyphs (and if you've been there then yeah, you can add as personal record)

[true snow]

does anyone happen to have previous NMS expadition guides? for like.. all the expaditions?

[tiny vortex]

guides? like....walkthroughs?

[true snow]

yea, im redoing all the NMS expaditions in order

but ive been stuck on pioneer for ages

[tiny vortex]

yeah me too, im on the second one now

[tiny vortex]

what do you need broski? which part

[true snow]

the black hole

[gray shoal]

Og or rerun?

[weak cloud]

The OG one

[pale slate]

I didnt know you could get the glyphs by adding the planet to your wonders. I do have them now. Unfortunately I dont have the glyph teleportation unlocked but now I have a reason to

[stuck berry]

I think for reduxes it would say (Redux) after it
to mimic how it shows up in-game

[tiny vortex]

looking for a blackhole? always. ALWAYS ask POLO

[pale slate]

Its notne of these. I think I mioght have went somewhere else within the expedition, but I ahve the glyphs now so thank you

[weak cloud]

Great! I'm glad you figured it out!

[true snow]

your a life saver thank you

[tiny vortex]

anything you need, you can DM me if you want. Im not an expert, but....

[hushed cave]

whats up yall. just got into the game recently - what is the purpose of taming animals and having pets? just cute companions? do they follow you around if you want them to, any useful benefit or assistance?

[true snow]

you can ride larger ones, breed them, and fullfil your pokemon dreams and become the best trainer that ever lived.

[hushed cave]

wonderful

thank you

[sour tartan]

what has happened to my settlement ? i swear it wasnt always floating lmao

[lusty galleon]

will attacking freighters in pirate systems give me minus standing or are they considered pirates?

[true snow]

also they can give cooking materials aswell

[hushed cave]

wait so can i take them aboard my ships and fly them to other planets?

[true snow]

you can dismiss them and recall them on different plannets

[vast smelt]

hi was wondering if to get this game what are the good wat the bad

[lone roost]

Minus standing, but no interceptors will attack

[lusty galleon]

bad: combat is meh
good: exploration aka. what this game is mainly about is very good

[true snow]

games great, really open ended. what i tell my friends is its better to make your own goals going in then expecting the game to make the goals for you.

[lusty galleon]

ty

[hushed cave]

i'm assuming theres some animals that you can ride that run really fast on

[vast smelt]

would anybody be willing to have me in their dms

[true snow]

possibly- i think there stats are randomly generated. ive got a Wi-Fi tower pet that goes pretty fast. but exo vehicles are the way to travel if you wanna go faster

[hushed cave]

true.

thanks for the info

[lusty galleon]

i suggest asking about the pros and cons of the game in #no-mans-sky, ppl always give more deep anwsers about this there

[manic vessel]

Nope.

[manic vessel]

It's a casual space exploration game, more wide than deep. If this appeals to you, get it. If looking for a hardcore space combat sim, may not be your cup of tea.

[tropic ginkgo]

discord acc created yesterday btw

[manic vessel]

Tons of videos of the game on Youtube, so you can check out some of the gameplay first.

[strong bronze]

do planets in no mans sky actually move because the star isnt "actually" there so do they actually orbit or move at all?

[manic vessel]

No they don't

[stuck berry]

They do not ever move or rotate

[strong bronze]

damn

[stuck berry]

The star and skybox rotate around the system

[manic vessel]

The skybox moves around them

haha, echo

[strong bronze]

do moons move around planets though?

[manic vessel]

No

[stuck berry]

No, as we said before, planets do not move at all

[strong bronze]

thats interesting so it gives like the illusion of orbiting when ur on the surface

of a planet

[stuck berry]

It's one of those things the game is good at making you not think about

Also, eclipses never occur as they would be nearly constant when on moons (well they still occur, the light just goes through other celestial bodies)

[gray shoal]

Eclipses would be cool tho

[stuck berry]

Moons in NMS are dozens of times closer than IRL because that's cool looking and fun

[lusty token]

what does "evolve pet" do?

[stuck berry]

It levels it up, giving you one point to improve a trait on it for xeno arena stuff

[lusty token]

does it change appearance

oke

[stuck berry]

The pellets required for this are given from the system champions you're pointed to from the special item you get for beating regular ones

[empty prairie]

how do i feed the creatures that are constantly underground and sometimes pop up, if you know what i mean?

[pulsar ermine]

Hi Guys i need some help again, I want to get the free freighter but i want a capital, i declined myt first one and i just got my second one but it wasnt a capital that spawned, i reset to the last save, is there any way to get it to be a captial or not?

[empty prairie]

whats the matter with capital ? arent like all freighter the same ?

[lusty galleon]

is there an permament fix for having to turn off windows audio in order to launch the game?

[mighty carbon]

Go to systems with high conflicts or go to an outlaw systems wait for battles to be triggered in them usually you will see 2 capital ships attacking each others one is dreadnought and the other is sentinel once you make the dreadnought surrender you can pick which one you want.

[mighty carbon]

No capital ships are Dreadnoughts and Sentinel they are more bigger in size...

Than the normal ones.

[empty prairie]

ahh ty

[bronze crypt]

What are the ways to going to the 256th galaxy?

[mighty carbon]

1. Press Win + X → Device Manager

2. Expand Sound, video and game controllers
   Right-click your audio device (Realtek / NVIDIA / AMD / USB headset)

3. Uninstall device

4. Restart PC (Windows will reinstall the driver automatically)

See if this works.

[bronze crypt]

Then u have to delete system 32

[tropic ginkgo]

#nms-questions message
capital is available only after your second battle, so it happened like it should have

[proper lodge]

Is there any chest armor that almost invisible?

[pulsar ermine]

So i have to reject two and then on the third encouter i can get one?

[lusty galleon]

garmin, run dism.exe 40 times in a row.

[mighty carbon]

No you don't....

🙂.

[mighty carbon]

He's joking don't actually do it...

[lusty galleon]

i know don't worry

garmin is a meme

ill check relatake audio for now

scared to touch amd

ptsd after an month full of random crashes

[mighty carbon]

Usually if the Audio crash while lunching the game has to do something with the windows itself or try to contact the game developers...

But try do the steps i told you it might fix it.

Don't worry am IT student...

If that won't work we can try another way around

If that also won't work then i can't help.

[empty prairie]

how do i feed the creatures that are constantly underground and sometimes pop up, if you know what i mean?

[lilac hinge]

Has there ever been talk from devs of giving players stations to make? Would be neat, althought idk how much it would differ from just having a freighter.

[lusty galleon]

it's because the game is so old that new windows just makes it kaboom itself

[mighty carbon]

I know 😂😂😂

[lusty galleon]

eughh reletek alone didn't work

[mighty carbon]

You have to get for them food i forget its name

[mighty carbon]

Let them fix games bugs first most importantly corvettes

😂.

[true snow]

last time i played and attempted a underground base i noticed that after a while it would be filled in with dirt/ground is that still a issue?

[manic vessel]

Dig down to them or find in caves

[empty prairie]

okay ty

[mighty carbon]

You playing with VR?!

Or no?

[manic vessel]

Devs don't interact with the player base.

They are barred from doing so.

[lilac hinge]

Really? No dev streams or anything like that?

[vast smelt]

how do i fly

[true snow]

hold W for keyboard and mouse

[mighty carbon]

No... Dev don't care about them game anymore as far i know

Expect for the new update.

[vast smelt]

should i buy a game called starfield

[empty prairie]

is your ship fine ?

[empty prairie]

nah no man sky is better

[mighty carbon]

Am buying it too soon ....

[lusty galleon]

nope, also it did not work

[empty cape]

if you put the cost of things on free

[manic vessel]

Communication is via two means. 1) Short x (formerly twitter) messages from the Sean account and 2) Occasional company edited and vetted write up by a senior developer Martin Griffiths, but always about things that have already happened, not future development.

[empty cape]

Can you still get trophy’s on ps5

or not?

[mighty carbon]

What about audio enchantment did you tried to turn it off?

[empty prairie]

when you repaired your ship, you can press and hold "W"

[manic vessel]

HG is very closed lipped about upcoming.

[manic vessel]

That's up to you

If you can afford it and want it, yes. If one of those is not the case, then no.

Nobody can know what your situation is and what you do or do not like.

[winter wolf]

also not a topic for discussion in this channel

[manic vessel]

Check out some reviews and gameplay videos to see if it appeals.

[manic vessel]

No. Employees sign a strict NDA. All communication about NMS from HelloGames staff, both current and former, must be approved by the company.

[lilac hinge]

Thats crazy. Guess im just spoiled by Warframe devs

[manic vessel]

Been this way since the beginning. Their game, their IP, their rules.

[mellow olive]

what galaxy type is odyalutai

[manic vessel]

From a business standpoint makes a lot of sense. HG, always being a lean company, has to minimize leakages. As well, every hour of time devs would spend wasting time shooting the breeze about the game online is one hour less of dev time to create new content and fix bugs.

[pulsar ermine]

I just want to check for the free freighter thing, i have gone into my second battle, can i get a capital to spawn or not?

[lilac hinge]

For sure, i wasn't saying there was anything wrong with it. It was just a surprisingly stark contrast.
In comparision DE just can't stop their devs from accidentally leaking things in dev streams. But its like... part of the fun. Its a running bit at this point.

[swift sand]

norm

[mellow olive]

just rarer than others then

[swift sand]

capitals can only start spawning after 2 completed battles, so on the 3rd and onward

[manic vessel]

Just never happened with NMS. NDA is a good incentive. Lose your job and get sued for more than you ever made working there.

[swift sand]

basically, it was a part of the loop before atlas rises, but then got removed from the loop but not from the game, probably because there was players by then. just another norm type that cant be reached by core warping, only by save editing or getting taxied

[mellow olive]

yea i’ve been it’s quite cool

just wasn’t sure

[mighty carbon]

Ahhh guys this is a question & answer channel not a discussion 🤓.

[graceful lotus]

My performance has tanked since the most recent update, but it seems to only be in one specific save, on both PS5 and PC.... Is there anything I can do to try to fix it besides making a new save or waiting for another update? :/

[true snow]

did they add player buildable pet arenas?

[swift sand]

if it's just a specific save, then when does it tank? does it tank perf when in space? have you tried resetting graphics settings (delete game install folder\binaries\settings\tkgraphicssettings.mxm and launch game)

[graceful lotus]

It's basically immediately a few seconds after I load in.

I tried flying to another planet but no dice

New save is smooth as butter though

[swift sand]

did you try a different system

[graceful lotus]

No but I'll try that

[manic vessel]

At best, one of the autophage presets includes no armor I think

[peak ferry]

Hello, i need some help figuring out ow to make a better power grid for my base, as the power grid gets overloaded from drain every night! if anyone has some good ideas or solutions that would be greatly appreciated. (I also dont have alot of resources on my planet either)

[proper lodge]

Amazing

[stuck berry]

Not sure if the other torso options force armor on though

[proper lodge]

Alright, thanns

[subtle aurora]

any idea what im missing?

[stuck berry]

Just use 2 solar panel and 1 battery per every 50kps consumption

[fresh cloud]

Anyone willing to help me test out a theory?

[graceful lotus]

So leaving the system made it way better, so it's something about the system and that specific save I guess. The new save has no issues in the same system

The original save tanks returning to that system

[stuck berry]

Have you finished They Who Returned?

[stuck berry]

Could you explain what it is?

[peak ferry]

ok i will give it a go! thanks

[mighty carbon]

How to fly forward using jetpack in PS5? Seen many players going forward instead of going upwards mine only goes upwards unless if am doing something wrong?!

[fresh cloud]

By doing a nexus mission with another player on switch 2 the game wont crash

[subtle aurora]

thats the quest where you make a staff?

[stuck berry]

Forward on left analogue stick while holding the jetpack button

[neat yarrow]

how do you get dioxite?

[stuck berry]

Mine it from cold planets

All cold planets have it as a mineral, in some of their deposits

[swift sand]

did you mean how to melee jetpack? start running, then melee, as weapon animates, press & hold jetpack button

[neat yarrow]

kk and how can u see it from galaxy map ?

[subtle aurora]

in that case
yeah i did

[stuck berry]

And it's no longer in your log?

[mighty carbon]

Only goes upwards

[neat yarrow]

llike do they appear as blue in system ?or nope?

[stuck berry]

Are you in VR?

[fresh cloud]

I think its the upgrade tech called "Rocket Boots"

[mighty carbon]

No PS5

[swift sand]

try to save+reload, see if there's any markers around to follow/did you uncloak npcs?

[mighty carbon]

PlayStation 5

[mighty carbon]

I have all the upgrades I can jump very high but can't go forward like others do.

[stuck berry]

Oh, do you mean melee boosting?

[true snow]

sprint melee jetpack all at once

[swift sand]

the "going forward" part, pretty sure that's what i was referring to, melee jetpack..

[swift sand]

wont appear in the galaxy map - but if you've already unlocked either dioxite or frost crystal in catalog, you could locate either to find a planet with dioxite on the list

For file space saving, delete all .DDS files in the backup (they're just base thumbnails)

Or heck even the whole cache folder

[mighty carbon]

Thanks it worked

I was wondering why people go fast.

[subtle aurora]

the save/reload didnt work
i already uncloaked/talked to a lot of NPCs but i cant really interact with them

[stuck berry]

That's definitely more than just "going forward" for future reference

[swift sand]

try to go and get some atlantideum/raise standing with autophages a bit

[stuck berry]

You can place a Save Beacon near the settlement at least to return to, or even a claimed base computer to teleport back to

[mighty carbon]

Is this good? That's what am using at the moment.

Only one S being supercharged.

[swift sand]

usually when we interact with that settlement building, it'll say what we need to apply. i'd try to save+restart game, because you should be able to talk to npcs i think too

[stuck berry]

Replacing the illegal one with an S-Class one may be better for now, also the Neural Stimulator is a blueprint tech, which have fixed stats

[hollow orchid]

can someone tell me why this turns into a metal looking plate when i try and add a wall underneath it

[stuck berry]

Hover over that part in the part selection menu, press View Variants, pick the base variant

Alloy, Timber, Stone and Salvaged walls by default change variants based on stuff being above or bow them

We can force these variants by expanding the options of a part in the menu and picking that desired variant

[hollow orchid]

ok thank you!

[mighty carbon]

The problem is the Illegal one offers less tank and it dose not offers any sprinting distances and recharging rate is very low...

[stuck berry]

Then again, replace it wish an S-Class one

[proper lodge]

Best way to exploit the autophages and become rich with 9999 void motes?

Guys which is better in space combats a Fighter or a Sentinel please

[stuck berry]

Disassemble Atlantid Multi-Tools

Alright thanks

[stuck berry]

Fighter has slightly higher damage bonus, but it's so little that it doesn't matter rlly

[true snow]

does anyone know a way to track down a airless and unusual planet type? for the first expadition

[stuck berry]

If you like the steering on sentinels (works fundamentally differently than all other ship types) more, then sentinel would be better

[proper lodge]

as i know red systems have plenty of those

[stuck berry]

Look for rusted metal or gold as a resource on planets, I think both are most common in red star systems

[wanton night]

Okay great thanks a lot

[stuck berry]

Worlds that list either Phosphorus, Ammonia or Dioxide without a plant resource may also work, these worlds are only found in red/green/blue/purple systems in non-lush/empty galaxies

[subtle aurora]

hard resetting didnt work
here's what happens when i talk to an NPC btw

[fresh cloud]

IT WORKS!! completing a nexus mission with someone else in a group, it stops the game from crashing on switch 2!

[swift sand]

do you have atlantideum on you?

a decent stack, like 500 or 1k?

[subtle aurora]

yes

[swift sand]

and you dont have any other settlement on this planet right?

[subtle aurora]

this is my first settlement period

is there some prequest to getting to have settlements?

[swift sand]

okay, check this: did autosave trigger recently, after you got to the settlement? reload autosave, not restore point

@subtle aurora also, do you happen to have a planet in distress mission in your Log?

[subtle aurora]

no

[swift sand]

that's odd. how did you go through the entire main storyline, without getting that, i have no idea. okay, so let autosave trigger at the settlement, then try reloading autosave, not restore point then try again

[subtle aurora]

tried that already, didnt work

[swift sand]

so you tried reloading both autosave and restore point slots, made at the settlement, none worked, ok

[subtle aurora]

yes

[mellow olive]

thanks, it’s a bug that’s been in game for years apparently

[subtle aurora]

well
restore point was outside the settlement since i cant place a save beacon inside

landed my ship inside and reloaded which also didnt work

[swift sand]

@subtle aurora so you got to this settlement via an autophage settlement chart? and there's no npc marked after reloading autosave, for you to talk to? what's options/difficulty/on foot combat set to?

[lusty token]

bro ive been following this green line for about 15 systems now WHERE IS THIS EGG PLANET

[subtle aurora]

i got no quest from the settlement chart
just a waypoint

[swift sand]

does the mission tooltip lower right say something about "unconventional travel"? does the egg when you cursor over it say EUCLID 3x?

[subtle aurora]

theres a bunch of NPCs i can talk to, but all of them have a single line and nothing else

[lusty token]

no

[swift sand]

that's not the mission tooltip - mission tooltip pops lower right when you're playing but i can already see what stage you're in

why would you want to follow a line forever that you dont even know - no, just use the intended way to do long distance travel, use the coords posted on an euclid portal

i wouldnt know it was forevfer

do you have multiple secondary mission pages?

the good news are that the next system is a disconant one

can you double check all of them again for a mission titled a planet in distress?

[subtle aurora]

yeah its not there

[lusty token]

ndm it does ;-;

this is a settlement - so you do already have a settlement. select this mission - unpause - what does the tooltip lower right of the screen want you to do?

no clue
should i restart mission?

What ways are there to get to galaxy 256?

Agh why have they made it so hard to find some terrain to put a base on that isn’t just going to Rez back in a day after it’s placed? Any tips? I don’t want to make another floaty prefab.

[swift sand]

yes, and progress that

[swift sand]

get taxied or save editor

[swift sand]

i really like ancient ruins for example. easy to find via charts or exocraft radar, lots of flat space around

op centers... etc etc - many buildings do this.

[near matrix]

Great idea. Is it ancient buildings on the exocraft?

[bronze crypt]

How do u get taxied?

[swift sand]

in short, at some point, you did get a planet in distress, which you followed for a bit probably, and it turned to the settlers. it's probably stuck on some early stage, and i'm guessing that progressing that is going to eventually let you get the autophage settlement

[next ginkgo]

Hey everyone!
What are your tips for wise early game unit investment (for a newbie)?
I got myself 11 million units from salvaging a ship I found and selling stuff.

[chilly juniper]

So I just scrapped a ship for 2 mil units but I didn't receive the units? Does it take a little bit for them to get deposited?

[near matrix]

Look in your pockets. They’ll be parts you can sell from it

[next ginkgo]

You get items worth that amount.

[chilly juniper]

Ahh I see

[true snow]

its 2mil worth of items scrapped from them

[chilly juniper]

I get it, ty

[mellow olive]

how many units do you have

[chilly juniper]

I had 2 mil before scrapping, it was worth a bit over 2 mil though

Also do multi-tools ever rotate at space stations, or is it set forever? And if I buy a multi-tool from a space station, does it ever get replaced?

[rapid cedar]

Are there ways to not have roll left and right in starship control but just left and right thrusting, as in is there an ingame setting for it maybe or a mod that provides that?

[swift sand]

1. a tool popped on a cabinet? try to save+reload on a (diff) planet in the system, then return to that cabinet, tool might be something else now. try with the other planets too
2. eventually, your save file will run out of space to remember that you looted a specific cabinet, in order to remember more recent ones. when that happens, it will regenerate in game.
3. there's hundreds of multitool cabinets on a single inhabited system

[swift sand]

like straffing? nope

[rapid cedar]

🙁

[near matrix]

Ok so all my radar scanned ancient ruins are all fully above ground. Do I need a specific type to get sunken ones?

[swift sand]

try to move away and use it again

@near matrix or alternatively, just get dig site charts

[eager geyser]

I’m guessing the answer is a big fat NO but can I give someone an atlantid drive?

[swift sand]

cant give packaged tech

[charred trout]

Whats the best way to find monoliths?

[swift sand]

either using alien charts or exocrafts with the radar and the radar power resonator techs installed

almost cant tell on the exocraft image sorry, but it's basically the last entry

[proper lodge]

Is minotaur only exocraft with infinite fuel?

[swift sand]

you mean that can install icarus fuel system tech?

nope

[proper lodge]

I mean infinite

[swift sand]

wdym infinite?

[proper lodge]

If you don't install +20% fuel efficiency on minotaur and only install icarus fuel system the fuel will never ran out

It will recharge with the same speed as it's consumed

But +20% fuel efficiency somehow bugs it and it starts to lose fuel

[swift sand]

it's possible to get other exocrafts to be really fuel efficient, and even be able to recharge nearly if not as fast as it discharges (depends on efficiency i guess) - but i think this was bugged on nautilon

[proper lodge]

Alright thanks

[warped valve]

ngl I never had to recharge my roamer yet with icarus system

[charred trout]

How much altantium is a gkod amount if farming for the multi tool?

[proper lodge]

What are the purpose of other exocrafts if nautilon and minotaur enough for everything?(Except for waste on planets)

[swift sand]

yeah, was about to say, my roamer is basically that, dont have to recharge if i mostly explore during daytime

[swift sand]

might want to make use of their scanners, also just having fun, more storage

[charred trout]

Pretty much for their land speed as the Minotaur sounds pretty slow moving

[proper lodge]

What is that "bike" exocraft and what he does?

[charred trout]

Does the same as the roamer pretty much but just a bike

[proper lodge]

Well i wouldn't call 170 u/h(or whatever measurements are) slow unless other exocrafts go 250+

[swift sand]

a bike, really goes vroom, it's fun

[proper lodge]

So useless?

[proper lodge]

Alright

[swift sand]

1k, 2k? depends really, how many monoliths. if you'd be hunting monoliths on a dissonant planet, you could literally sustain it from that planet

[proper lodge]

Can i fly by going up the mountain with high speed on exocraft?

Or the crazy gravity of exocraft gonna pull me back again?

[hushed owl]

im trying to delete my corvette so i can save and use the parts for a new one this is my first corvette is this possible

[swift sand]

depends on the planet you do it in - if you tried it on a dead biome planet, low gravity; i remember people getting out of the atmosphere lol

[swift sand]

in short, have the needed basic modules to be able to finalize a corvette; add them to the build. delete every other part, finalize. then go exchange it with a npc. if you don't have options/difficulty/crafting set to free, all the parts you delete manually will be refunded to you

[proper lodge]

So i can fly of the mountain and land on the corvette that will get me to the space station?

[charred trout]

Can I use the same monolith to farm the multitool?

[hushed owl]

how do i exchange? just find an npc and trade

[swift sand]

lol, you could probably try to pull something like that, but your exocraft wont come along

[hushed owl]

oh mb lol i meant the required parts i kinda only have 2m

[swift sand]

yep, or a crashed ship; then scrap their ship to get the active ship slot back

[proper lodge]

Oh yea i forgot that space station has wall that cannot be passed unless you on ship and initializing landing

[swift sand]

wdym farm the multitool? you mean that you interacted with the discordant interface, dont like the tool, and want to know if you can make the game spawn a diff one in its place now?

[proper lodge]

Well i know basic physics and as long as they work properly i can pull it off

[swift sand]

just remember: NMS physics - have fun 🥳

[charred trout]

No more or less like just repeat the process on the same one and continue exchanging rubbish muktitools for the ones u get from the monolith

[swift sand]

no, you'll have to find more monoliths

[lusty token]

man now i gotta wait for travelers to appear on the space station?

someone told me to do th eggs stuff befoure the protal stuff

[swift sand]

why? just complete main storyline in a few hours, leave starbirth on hold

[proper lodge]

Just teleport across the space stations you already visited

[lusty token]

now i cant go on with the egg stuff because i havent glyphs

[proper lodge]

You'll find plenty

[lusty token]

ãnd no travelers are spawning

[swift sand]

completing main story is the easiest way to learn the glyph set

gonna need it to do the autophage and purple star systems quests too

[proper lodge]

Also you can get first 2 glyphs and teleport on planet with all glyphs

[lusty token]

im tyrin to do that

but i need travelers to spawn

and they aint spawning

[swift sand]

just use the eliminate haz flora nexus mission strat

forget travellers

[lusty token]

i do have the first one tho

idk how i got it

but i do

can i find travelers that give me the glyph on the anomaly

or is it only space stations and osmetimes trade centers

<:atlasnmscord:1269532093076078658> Unlocking the 16 Portal Glyphs

Glyphs are always unlocked in the same order. Completing the main storyline is the easiest and most hassle-free way to do so, but the player may also obtain glyphs from Traveler graves.

A) Through the main storyline mission named The Purge: perform 16 warps in any direction, to any system (despite what the quest objective says). Wait for the game to register the last warp, then warp out again. Type !faq-artemispath in #bot-spam for a list of missions.

B) Find Travelers in inhabited star systems, and for 100 nanites, ask them where they came from.
This will add a HUD marker to a grave location on one of the planets in the system: follow it and interact with the grave to obtain the next glyph. Please note that if multiple travelers are found in the same location/system, it won't be possible to get markers for all their graves in one go, you need to get one grave at a time.

C) Through the Eliminate Hazardous Flora Nexus mission. It is strongly recommended to do this with multiplayer disabled. As part of the mission, the player is led to a grave. Once located, do not interact with it but instead build and claim a base computer near by, then return to the Space Anomaly by reloading restore point or using on-foot quick menu shortcut (if available). Nexus missions refresh every 10 minutes, so if the mission is still available (or another of the same type has been added with the last refresh), the process can be repeated again. Once done with finding graves, they can easily be reached through any teleporter.

Run !Faq-Portal and !Faq-PortalUse in #bot-spam to learn more about portals and using them.

@lusty token ^ see post above, method C

[peak ferry]

hey, i just built a magnetic resonater at the nearest hotspot from my base, and i realised that it is like 8,000 u away. is there a way that i can get the power there?

[lusty token]

this is the main quest correct?

cause it still seems as if ima need to talk to people anyway

[hazy swift]

So i have a question and a problem

[peak ferry]

wait no, it is 2,000 u away

[acoustic siren]

hey anyone can help me?

[swift sand]

we can expand default build bubble up to ~1000u in any direction from the original claim position of a base comp, but not more. you should be able to find hotspots closer. see this video https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/839545127692795954/1185031467336736820/survey_device_howto_handshake_1.mp4

[swift sand]

yes

[swift sand]

ask away

[lusty token]

hmmm, im p sure if i do the glyphs now i would get them faster

[swift sand]

ask away

[acoustic siren]

I need help, I can't join my friends

[hazy swift]

I have the starborn pheonix item in my inventory, but i can't claim it. Im on ps5

[swift sand]

what's the error you get, have they added your nms friend code and have you added theirs, have you all tried to restart your games completely?

[acoustic siren]

I've seen everything online and nothing.

[hazy swift]

I don't have the game for steam

[swift sand]

wont be able to claim that, just someone who save edited that in, thinking someone else could use it perhaps

[stuck berry]

Not an item meant to be obtainable

[acoustic siren]

Nothing shows up for me, it just says "connecting to group", it shows 2/4 and then it disconnects me from the group without showing me anything.

[swift sand]

have they added your nms friend code and have you added theirs, have you all tried to restart your games completely?

[hazy swift]

Yet somehow i have it

[acoustic siren]

yes

[peak ferry]

thankyou

[swift sand]

dump that, cant use it for anything, someone dumped it on your inventory in a trip to the anomaly

[hazy swift]

I see

[swift sand]

can you see other players in the space anomaly walking around

[hazy swift]

I've just been giving them out

[acoustic siren]

cIf you want, we can make a call with a friend because I don't speak English very well.

[hazy swift]

Would have been nice to claim it though

[acoustic siren]

yes

[swift sand]

try restarting your router? if that doesn't fix, connect your device to a mobile hotspot or run through a vpn to bypass home network, try again

[hazy swift]

I can give them out. Right?

[swift sand]

they're useless to everyone

[hazy swift]

Oh....

[acoustic siren]

I reset it too, that was the first thing I did

[swift sand]

i know you meant well

[hazy swift]

Now i just feel bad

[swift sand]

sorry, i should have worded it differently. anyways, dont worry. you're not the first, nor will you be the last. people wont be upset.

[acoustic siren]

check dm

[hazy swift]

Well, is there anyway i can get the ship?^^ i really do want it

[void karma]

.

[hazy swift]

I do understand i probably missed my chance though

[stuck berry]

Only on PC via unofficial means #nms-questions message or from another player trading you one via a small glitch #nms-legacy-ships message (latter can be done on all platforms with access to multiplayer)

It's only original source was from the free Steam DLC made available for only a week in Dec 2024

[true snow]

hey this may be dumb but since i am redoing the expaditions by changing out the SEASON DATA CACHE
when i go back to default will i still have those expadition rewards?

[hazy swift]

Which im sure the glitch has been patched

[swift sand]

yes

[stuck berry]

No, it has not.

This glitch has existed for many, many years

[true snow]

ok, i just wanted to double check

[charred trout]

For the excavating alavage autophage quest what am I looking for?

[hazy swift]

...what do I need to do?

[swift sand]

try asking around #nms-lfg-or-trades for someone who could gift you the ship

[swift sand]

"excavating salvage"? can you post a screenshot of the mission tooltip lower right of the screen when you're playing?

[charred trout]

Thats the quest but I have been hitting a few of em already and still nothing and im a planet that has it

[stuck berry]

Find a planet that has Salvageable Scrap, then and and locate a Salvage Container, dig it up and mine it with your Mining Beam

[charred trout]

I did but nothing

[stuck berry]

Then possibly do that again, each one gives different stuff

they mainly give corvette modules now instead of the procedural "scrap" treasure, but they still sometimes give that

[charred trout]

Ohhh the quests are wanting the treasure?

[stuck berry]

Yes, have you been selling those?

[charred trout]

Nah just havent been able to get 1 to pop up yet

[stuck berry]

They have these icons, based on their rarity

[distant plank]

can u have settlements on gas giants?

[stuck berry]

No.

Gas Giants count in a similar manner to Dead and Weird worlds, so no inhabited structures ever

[distant plank]

i feel like that was a stupid question but i had to ask

[distant plank]

ok

thx

[lusty token]

cant find any of the portals youtube videos show

where they deleted

[stuck berry]

I dunno

We still have our guide here

!faq-portal

[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.

[modern pawn]

what is usually the best planet types to build bases on

[lusty token]

nono, i mean the glyph portals

[stuck berry]

The ones you like the look of really, as being indoors protects you from hazards

[stuck berry]

Yes, that's what the guide above is for.

They are the only thing in No Man's Sky that is usually referred to as "Portal"

[lusty token]

is there any moreto the guide

[stuck berry]

Click the links to see detailed info about each step

it's all of the info needed to locate a Portal

[lusty token]

no ive done all that

im tyring to get all glyphs

so i went to the one that links to them all

[stuck berry]

Oh, that would be a different guide #nms-commands message

[lusty token]

breh

[stuck berry]

You do not collect glyphs at Portals, you collect them at Graves, or from the end of the main story

[charred trout]

How much panties does a s class altantide cost?

[stuck berry]

the latter of which is much easier and you'll still want to do anyways

[lusty token]

https://youtu.be/XS40B9HBBuM?t=295

im tlaking about this

[charred trout]

Then h would be hunting for hero graves then if u arent planning to do the quest

[stuck berry]

Yes, and I linked a guide that showed how to do the same thing

[lusty token]

no... u showed the guide that stopped at where im at rn

my poroblem is htat there is no base with that name that i cna find

~thats why im asking

was that teleporter removed

[stuck berry]

Ohhhh, so you're at a system that has bases at Graves?

[lusty token]

yes

[stuck berry]

That is extremely important context

that should work the same as it always has, still slightly unreliable and tedious

[lusty token]

if u checked the video at the moment i linked it u wouldve gotten it but rn i can tell u just, didnt open it

[stuck berry]

Yeah, because I'm busy and multitasking

you can explain what is occuring in this channel

[lusty token]

i have

like trice now

u just got it on the third time

[stuck berry]

well it's the same as it was in the video, it hasn't changed since 2018

maybe some old bases got overwritten by new bases

as their original uploaders probably haven't uploaded them in many years

[swift sand]

most likely, some ignore the warning to not upload bases on those systems

[stuck berry]

some are just malicious unfortunately

[lusty token]

but like all the other glyphs are also the same way u get the first 2?

[stuck berry]

Each grave gives you the next glyph in order, so for that method yeah

[charred trout]

For hunting altantide multi tools how much do a class and s class usually cost in Nantes

[stuck berry]

I think not too many more than lower class ones, but I never payed attention to that

like 3,000 nanites should be fine for the most expensive numbers that I remember

[charred trout]

😭 oh cause I encounter an a class and it was close to 5k

Alsoo how do I find the slavage data frigate version?

[swift sand]

you mean salvaged frigate modules? see <#nms-commands message> for drop sources

[charred trout]

So for that recommended system it has i just exit and enter the system for the ruin ship to spawn to farm it?

[swift sand]

no, you'd have to buy multiple emergency signal scanners from the scrap dealer (buy coordinates option) to run the mission multiple times (run it once, loot all crates+main terminals, exit, complete mission, go again). there's other much less expensive ways on that list btw

ESS prices will scale up to a cap of 30M, if you buy multiples every day

[charred trout]

What happens if I dont have any scrap to start it

[swift sand]

not sure what you're trying to ask - "scrap to start"?

scrap dealer is just the name of the npc

you buy coordinates with units

"coordinates" is actually the consumable item called "emergency signal scanner", that you trigger to activate a derelict freighter mission

How do you use your scanner to find out what class a xeno-pet is?

[swift sand]

there's a new visor mode to switch to, in addition to target sweep/survey device modes

[rustic sandal]

Thanks. I assume it is available at the anomaly?

[swift sand]

no need to unlock; it'll jst be dependent on a few things, like having a couple pets or more, having progressed far enough into the main storyline (not much), and having talked to oceanus (the new npc in the anomaly)

[charred trout]

Lhhhh i thought u needed scrap to get it

[rustic sandal]

Guess I missed Oceanus. Thanks.

[subtle aurora]

what happens if i upgrade class on an s-class mt?

[bitter crypt]

Nothing happens. There's nothing higher than an S class

[charred trout]

Just some minor boosts and an extra supercharge slot

[modern pawn]

when i exchange a ship, does all my technology get transfered or not?

[bitter crypt]

You lose all technology and items in the ship you are giving away

[full hazel]

That is why I have never exchanged my now built out starting ship for any other.

[swift sand]

@modern pawn that said, you can package installed tech and modules/move cargo items out before going in to exchange

[modern pawn]

i mean i js found a super beautiful S class so i can rebuild all the technology

[modern pawn]

oh forgot about that thanks😂

I installed Linux Mint. Got Steam, then installed NMS. Cannot join anyone on MP, also Anomaly is empty.
Anyone has any idea how to fix it?

[swift sand]

1. dont use steam flatpak

[mystic dagger]

It wasn't

[eager geyser]

Can’t find the walker, it’s somewhere underground. Months ago I thought I’d figured out a way to find it but I can’t for the life of me remember what I did. Anyone have a fix for this?

[rustic sandal]

Did the training battle. Nothing changed. I'll go to a planet and get a screeshot.

[swift sand]

2. i never had to do anything else other than installing the game, having my clock synced via ntp - on arch linux

[true snow]

i had this issue like 10 seconds ago. i saw the red dot of where he was underground and dug in that area then used flatten to make a massive flat area then he just redropped from the sky

[mystic dagger]

Which Proton you using on Steam?

[swift sand]

has pretty much always worked OOTB since proton4

we're on proton10 - used proton experimental for a long time, currently on proton-ge because of a few things

[eager geyser]

I figured it out just now. For me, walking away until it says “sentinel force searching” will make the red dot show up. Unfortunately, the walker was too far underground to dig out this time.

[swift sand]

@mystic dagger maybe, through protontricks, check what windows version is nms'es prefix - should be win11 even these days i think

[mystic dagger]

What's proton-ge?

[swift sand]

https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom

@mystic dagger from memory, when there's issues with multiplayer not working on deb based distros, it's due to some clock/ntp or dns resolver failures

[rustic sandal]

I give up. Best I can do bud.

[swift sand]

it's right there

the paw icon

visor mode 6

after survey device

[rustic sandal]

Let me check it out.

[winged yoke]

is some star systems better with finding burried technology or are they the same, because the system im in feels like it has none

[swift sand]

planets in uncharted systems (no station, no race icon on galaxy map) and planets with rusted metal or gold wont have any

[mystic dagger]

If there a fix for that?

[rustic sandal]

Does not show the class. What am I doing wrong?

[swift sand]

wont show it on animals that cant be adopted
