[zealous kettle]

it is just a yellow diamond when you're in space

[buoyant ferry]

There is no yellow diamond

[zealous kettle]

are you in space?

[buoyant ferry]

Yes, I’m very new so sorry if this is a stupid question

[bitter crypt]

it's an orange hexagon with a white inner filling

[zealous kettle]

and also are you in the ttutorial

if you are literally just starting the game might force you to do something else but im not sure

[buoyant ferry]

I think I’m past the tutorial, I made a corvette

[zealous kettle]

um

how did you make a corvette but you don't have a space station??

[bitter crypt]

:v

[buoyant ferry]

I had one, but idk where it is now

[zealous kettle]

LOL

[wet sigil]

Space station is where you made the corvette

[buoyant ferry]

There’s no more marker for it

[bitter crypt]

it is possible that you're in an uncharted system

[zealous kettle]

send a screenshot

[bitter crypt]

Those don't have stations

[zealous kettle]

I more meant of the map

click M

[wet sigil]

That looks like an ambassador cockpit, but definitely a corvette

[zealous kettle]

I mean

solar system

[buoyant ferry]

I didn’t even know there was a map

[bitter crypt]

so is definitely not uncharted

[zealous kettle]

yeah idk

[sour ice]

icon bug maybe

[bitter crypt]

That's how you warp systems

[wet sigil]

Fly around the space and see if you can find a hexagon marker with a circle in the middle

[zealous kettle]

yeah fly around a bit

[bitter crypt]

Keep looking around, you must find it eventually

[opaque marsh]

aksed in the wrong chat, but where do yall buy good ships?

[wet sigil]

That's space station market

[opaque marsh]

?

[zealous kettle]

space stations

[wet sigil]

Define good?

[opaque marsh]

better than class c or b

just a general upgrade to starter ship

[wet sigil]

Do you have upgrades for your ship yet?

[opaque marsh]

like 1 or two

[wet sigil]

Like technology uogrades

[opaque marsh]

thruster upgrade is all

[zealous kettle]

either get lucky and find one, do an expedition that has one, or save up nanites, buy an S class reactor, and make your own with parts (this is expensive to do and you shouldn't do it unless you have the parts you want)

[wet sigil]

I would focus on that first, s rank without technology is worse than a c rank with s rack technology

[zealous kettle]

yeah

[opaque marsh]

so stick around space station till one i like arrives or is there an actual merchant?

[zealous kettle]

just stay there until one arrives

[urban crypt]

hang out in stations or trade outposts in "3 star economy" systems. until you see a ship that you like, that is the class you want. its rng. 5% chance to spawn as s class iirc.

[zealous kettle]

might take a while tho

[wet sigil]

Every star has a selection of around 21 ships that it can spawn with, if you want to see different ships you need to try other atars

[wet sigil]

3 star economy is 2% for S rank

[opaque marsh]

im really new so how do i check the economy star thing?

[wet sigil]

It is a good place to get a rank though, I think it's 30%

[opaque marsh]

im in one of the space stations rn

[tropic ginkgo]

you're not going to be able to make use of a higher-class ship early on your save as upgrades to modules do more than its class alone

[urban crypt]

otherwise use nmsce to find a ship you like. there are ways to force a s class spawn iirc.

[sour ice]

3 stars here instead of 1

[tropic ginkgo]

ship class can always be upgraded also

[urban crypt]

but seriously, pick a ship for its visual style, you can upgrade it to s class later, and the performance deficit is not that important.

[opaque marsh]

nah just trying to get like a class above so like b

[opaque marsh]

checks out

[wet sigil]

Ship ranks don't do nearly as much as tech if you have no tech

And better ships don't always mean better looking ship, every ship, even the beginning one, can be made into s rank

[sour ice]

Where can I find a list of all the possible stat ranges of all X class upgrades?

[urban crypt]

wiki if anywhere

[wet sigil]

Or google

[tropic ginkgo]

can also just spend nanites to upgrade a ship you like
is why it's more useful to go for looks first, harder to adjust than performance/stats

[sour ice]

Yeah, found them
https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Multi-Tool#Upgrade_Modules
https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Starship#Starship_components_and_technology

[urban crypt]

you can also craft starships by scrapping ships with parts you like and then building your own. with a s class reactor thats s class out the box. Or you can build a corvette, but that will start c class and require nanites to upgrade.

[silver bluff]

I’m at this point I’ve beat the atlas stuff how do I unlock the autophages

[wet sigil]

You have not reached the autophage requirements

You need to complete the other chain

Atlas actually is not required to get autophage staves, Artemis quest is

[tropic ginkgo]

complete The Purge

[silver bluff]

I just wanna be able to customize myself to be an autophage can I do that after I complete the purge?

[wet sigil]

The purge is an active requirement for autophage quest

[autumn talon]

i am softlocked glitched inside my freighters landing bay and i cant get out i have tried everything does anyone have any tips

[zealous kettle]

reload?

[autumn talon]

forgot about that thanks

[wet sigil]

If you are in a starship, next time that happens you can just warp away and back in

[charred trout]

Does it usually take a while till I can get a settlement out of debt?

[reef shale]

whats the portal glyphs for eissentam

[sour ice]

You cant travel to other galaxies via those portals

[reef shale]

yea i just found that out nvm

gotta find one in the anomoly

[wet sigil]

That's why most portal coordinates shared by community also include the galaxy name

[sour ice]

Yeah if someone in the anomaly has a base in that galaxy then you can teleport there, else you can ask somebody for a ride

If its eissentam then maybe one of the featured bases is located there too, havent checked

[reef shale]

are these just here forever now

[urban crypt]

what i love is when you start docking with the anomaly, but you fail to land and just drift out the back of it. can't access emergency warp there so its reload only :/

[lusty tusk]

Does anyone know how to solve the "location corrupted" when I try to use a portal sometimes? Im pretty sure ive completed all i need to

[reef shale]

im assuming most of the systems in eissentam are all discovered?

[lusty tusk]

Theres a few trillion systems in each galaxy so I doubt it

[reef shale]

hm okay

hopefully i can find a good system thats 3 star and korvax to colonize and kinda make my own

[lusty tusk]

I think it would be rare even to find discovered systems if youre just traveling on your own

[reef shale]

every system near where im at thats 3 star and kovax have all been discovered

[lusty tusk]

How did you get to thay area did you use coordinates or go to someones base?

[reef shale]

i wenbt to sum1s base

[lusty tusk]

Thats why

[reef shale]

ahhh kay

how far out do you think id need to go

[sour ice]

I would warp far away from that region or go through a black hole

[lusty tusk]

If you are just traveling on youre own it is very rare to come across other people or discoveries

[reef shale]

ive done like 8 warps and all are discovered

[lusty tusk]

Just keep going you'll get far enough eventually. Or maybe find a black hole

[reef shale]

but i got yall

black hole sound better idea ngl

[sour ice]

I guess you could also start a nexus mission to warp you to the mission system, which should be random

[reef shale]

aye ggs fionally got 1

first warp out of a black hole

gentle conflict too were so up

time to colonize the shit outta this place

[wet sigil]

Eissemtam is probably one of the more populated galaxies outside of Euclid due to them being the first lush galaxy after Euclid, I would probably choose somewhere between 100 to200 to find truly deserted galaxies to hide in

[lusty tusk]

True its definitely the most populated after Euclid but its still huge i dont think it makes much of a difference

[reef shale]

dont necassarily wanna hide just wanna find a good place ot call my own system and stuff yk

[lusty tusk]

Even Euclid most probably wouldn't make a difference

[reef shale]

ive already got a system or 2 like that but theyre all like low star and my early bases n what not

[ivory hull]

Ok can someone help me

I cannot get to my cockpit in my Corvette

I just made it. What am I doing wrong

[urban crypt]

you added an entrance with a path to the cockpit?

if you created a multilevel corvette, and can access some of it, you will need to enter build mode while inside to place stairs to reach the cockpit level.

[wet sigil]

There is also the possibility that your cockpit may have snapped ever so slightly to the wrong snapping point of your hab unit, causing the wall between them to not open up

[ivory hull]

I had a walkway above a hab

[wet sigil]

How exactly can you not get to your cockpit? The doors between the hab and cockpit not appearing?

[ivory hull]

They aren't appearing yes and it's pissing me off

[wet sigil]

Take off the cockpit and put it back on, if it still doesn't appear, try wiggling the cockpit slightly

I know it doesn't make sense right now, but that's all I can think of

[ivory hull]

I purchased another cockpit but it's not in my inventory

[blazing tusk]

Do save beacons and other items placeable without a base computer count towards your build limit? I'd guess yes, but want to be sure

[wet sigil]

Check your workshop storage

[ivory hull]

I did

They get a bad review I think I'm done

It also says the update is out and it's not for xbox

[lilac tide]

how come my visited systems list fills up with random systems i've definitely not been to? With a small "player" icon on the end, which I don't know the meanning of? its kinda annoying

is it just from passing over those systems in the map?

[wet sigil]

A quirk of using anomaly with MP on, discoveries seem to be shared for whatever reason

[lilac tide]

I technically have MP off

tho i saw someone elses base after a portal use

[wet sigil]

Did you check other storage like the Corvette's storage?

[ivory hull]

I did

Several times over

[blazing tusk]

Anytime you hover over a system discovered by another player in the galaxy map, it's added to your visited systems list. Even if you never actually warp there

Use the "hide" option to remove them

[lilac tide]

that does seem to align with whats happened. what a crazy UI decision lol

the whole visited systems list is really weird

[blazing tusk]

Strange indeed

[lilac tide]

no option for 'systems I discovered' or 'recent systems I visited' too

a game about discovering stuff with no good way to track it

[blazing tusk]

I just experienced the issue where your warp list resets after visiting a new galaxy. Glad I always take note of system coordinates I might want to return to

[wet sigil]

I just use base names to keep track of systems

[ivory hull]

Thanks for trying to help I think I'm done game doesn't work

[wanton night]

Hello, i claimed a crashed ship but id idnt repair and took off the system and i cant rememebr where were it and i cant deploy it anywhere, what can i do please to fix this ?

[wet sigil]

The only I can suggest is, if you are still willing, is to turn off costs of crafting and make a new corvette from scratching using the parts you had used, and see if that makes a working corvette, and keep that one

[wet sigil]

Make a base computer, save and reload, then summon that ship

[ivory hull]

I'll try that

[wanton night]

thanks

[gray shoal]

U Might want look at this
#no-mans-sky message

[ivory hull]

Heyyy it worked

Thanks guys

[wet sigil]

Alr did

We are looking over it now

[ornate cargo]

how do i get a living starship

[gray shoal]

U do starbirth quest

[ornate cargo]

when do i get that

[gray shoal]

It triggers after u buy void egg for 3200qs

[ornate cargo]

where can i buy a void egg

[gray shoal]

In quicksilver shop

On anomaly

[ornate cargo]

do i need to be a sertain level of smth to buy it

aight cool

[gray shoal]

But to complete the quest u need to have glyphs unlocked

So its advised to do quest after artemis path

[ornate cargo]

oh cool

im almost done with it i think

[supple goblet]

Hi, may i ask, i have done the purge, why i havent unlock the autophage race? Ty

[river canyon]

You need to do the Echoes content for that

I heard the autophage have a beutiful cosmetic for house, best reason to lock in again XD

[river canyon]

I do like their style

[supple goblet]

I saw their house and i was like, i wanna live in that XD

[past onyx]

Do furniture items stay inside corvettes?

[stuck berry]

If editing the corvette and not accidentally editing a nearby planet base, yes

[past onyx]

Okay, but it wont delete if say, used my starfighters then swapped back over to the corvette?

[soft rapids]

Is it possible to upgrade your c-class settlement to an s-class settlement or will it always stay c-class?

[urban crypt]

it upgrades as you improve the happiness, productivity and population.

[main bone]

whats the best farm to get into early on, super early in and want units/nanites

[outer trellis]

Hi! i'm doing under a rebel star mission and i took the freedom ticket to a station core. I have two options. Does it make any difference what i choose?

[wheat cove]

Scanning all the fauna on a planet gets a nanite bonus (you have to claim it via the discovery page). You can also refine slime into runaway mould then into nanites.

For units, you can buy emergency charts with navigation data at stations, and scrap the ships you find.

[stuck berry]

Each choice gives a different title, both complete the mission

[outer trellis]

Ah is just a title!

[glad meteor]

Been gone for a while... is it possible to increase the base grades of the animal stats with egg sequencing or some other method?

Is there already a pin somwhere for this info?

[outer trellis]

Can you redo it to gain both?

[stuck berry]

No

[stuck berry]

Titles are account wide, so you can do the mission on a different save to pick the other ending and get the other title

[glad meteor]

So I need to go hunting for good animals on planets?

[stuck berry]

we cannot replay missions in No Man's Sky

[outer trellis]

And what are the titles?

To choose what is coolest hahaha

[glad meteor]

ooh look what I just found

gona get two!! 🙂

[stuck berry]

Traitor (NAME) for reporting the pirates to the system authorities, and Heretic (NAME) for turning in the Forged Passport

Both endings also grant another title: Glorious Survivor (NAME)

[outer trellis]

and i guess it has zero implications

it's just aesthetic if you want to put it

[normal olive]

How would I go about building a second corvette while keeping the one I currently have? Where does the other one go if I start building another at a different pad in the station?

[stuck berry]

Same way you built the first one, as long as you have less than 12 active starships currently

note that you can store an extra 18 starships in your starship archive accessed at your freighter's Fleet Management terminal, but corvettes do not fit in this

[normal olive]

So where will my existing one go if I build another? Will it just end up at my freighter or something?

[stuck berry]

Like all of your other starships, it is stored in non-existent space until resummoning

they exist in nothing-space, ready to be re-summoned via the quick menu

also when your freighter hangar is loaded, it places 5 of your active non-primary starships on other landing pads

[normal olive]

Ok cool

[near prism]

What should I be looking for when getting a new multitool?

[normal olive]

I've been trying to find an S class multi tool for a while and I can't find any

[proven frigate]

Same ngl, I only come across them twice, and its the same Messenger of Sight pistol thingy

[normal olive]

I also need to find an S class fighter but my luck has been awful so far and I have nowhere near enough credits

[proven frigate]

That is very understandable, I grown so impatient I decided to build my own

[swift sand]

first, decide which tool type you kinda like the looks of the most. dont worry about innate bonuses (right image): after a decent build, all tools can do anything the game will need/throw at you. we can have up to 6 active tools +18 archived. with a good supercharged slot layout, even more so. sometimes we need to take a tool and upgrade it to reveal any missing supercharged slots (maybe just needs adding tech slots, maybe also needs a class upgrade)

[swift sand]

when you find a higher class cabinet but dont like the tool there, try to save+reload on each of the planets/moons in the system - and recheck the cabinet after each reload. you'll probably get something different.

[normal olive]

Actually aren't sentinel interceptors better than fighters?

[fast hearth]

If I finalise a corvette can I edit it later?

[normal olive]

Yes

[fast hearth]

How exactly?

[normal olive]

Same way you build it

[fast hearth]

Noted, tyty

[proven frigate]

I'm sorry I am not sure I understand how to do that, like save and exit to menu and come back?

[swift sand]

well, depends from player to player really. define better? the end stats difference between the two ships wont matter much for daily driver gameplay

[normal olive]

Oh fair enough

[swift sand]

enter+exit ship+reload restore point in the options menu

[normal olive]

I'll probably be daily driving a corvette but I need something for combat since I hate the manueverability of my corvette

[proven frigate]

Enter the station/place with cabinet or the ship?

or the game

sorry

[swift sand]

what we mean by save+reload:

• hop in and out of your ship (or seat, if corvette): this updates the restore point save slot. then open options menu, there's a button reload restore point: press that.

[near prism]

Would you need to makea fresh restore point each time you check or would you just be able to load the same one each time?

nvm im stupid, it'd make one anyway

[proven frigate]

As you can see from this and previously on our interactions, I'm kinda slow and dense without thorough explainations. mb

[swift sand]

reloading a restore point done on the same planet multiple times wont change the tool on the same cabinet

[swift sand]

nothing to be sorry about, always feel free to ask as much as needed

[proven frigate]

Ok I get it now, thanks

[near prism]

I meant on the other planet but I forgot that once you travel again, you'll need to make a new one

[swift sand]

what is going to matter for the cabinet is what planet/moon you last saved+reloaded on - updating the restore point afterwards and elsewhere, not on the same planet, wont affect anything, until you reload it

[near prism]

Can a harmonic camp be scanned for or would I just have to search each planet?

[swift sand]

harmonic camps are found either by random exploration or using echo locator consumable items

not all inhabited dissonant systems will have them though

(echo locator) needs a gek/korvax/vykeen dissonant system, with at least 1 dissonant planet that doesnt have gold or rusted metal on the list

can easily locate a suitable dissonant system by popping a carrier ai fragment

[near prism]

Think I'm still too early to fully understand :p
But I have found a few dissonant systems

[swift sand]

carrier ai fragment is also a consumable item that drops from killing sentinel space police freighter for example. it locates a sentinel crashed ship site directly, using galaxy map if needed

[tulip dust]

-# to view info below, enable embeds

How to find Dissonance

Look for Dissonant systems in the galaxy map. In these systems, you'll often find at least one planet that reads Dissonance Detected in their resource list.

Notes:

• All dissonant planets can be used to farm related resources e.g. radiant shards, echo locator
• Not all dissonant systems and/or planets can spawn harmonic camps (image ). Consuming a Carrier AI Fragment should lead you to a suitable location that can spawn harmonic camps.
  

Shared by: bkay201 Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[swift sand]

@near prism ^ if you find a dissonant planet in a gek/korvax/vykeen dissonant system that doesn't have gold or rusted metal on its resource list, then that planet can technically spawn harmonic camps. finding a harmonic camp means you'll have to go dissonance resonator farming - dissonance resonators are these drill like corrupted sentinel units, might have seen them before.

[tulip dust]

-# to view info below, enable embeds

<:info:850810445577453658> When the game spawns a Dissonance Resonator...

There's a:

• 80% chance that Resonator will be an Inverted Mirror Resonator;
• 20% chance that Resonator will be an Echo Locator Resonator.

Approach and aim at the Resonator to see what it will drop when destroyed.

[main bone]

how do u seperate multiple habs in corvette building so there is doors between

[normal olive]

How exactly do you get sentinel ships?

Don't you need to find crashed ones

[stuck berry]

Indeed #nms-commands message

you only find them on inhabited dissonant worlds (those that don't list Rusted Metal or Gold)

[livid crest]

what can i do at a crashed freighter in the space?

other than shooting teh cargo pods?

[swift sand]

all broken up?

[livid crest]

yes

[swift sand]

move on

[livid crest]

okay

[main bone]

What is the ideal weapon on a corvette that will allow me to break salvaged things without landing and doing with multitool

[swift sand]

iirc, for example, infra knife works well

[analog wasp]

hello i noticed some pets have attacks of another element (beside the neutral elements ones) like a fire type with an anomalous attack. Any pet can roll for other element skills? im far from max lvl pet so i havent interacted much with rerrolling skills

[stuck berry]

cyclotron ballista I believe has the largest AOE
I've used it and it reaches every single node that isn't inside the floor of a cave

[fathom flume]

just started nms for the first time, any tips? Im guessing following the main quests will take you through everything and learn about the games mechanics

[swift sand]

Any pet can roll for other element skills?
not sure, but i have seen that with some pets as well

[main bone]

is this the same as the cylatron defence cannon?

[stuck berry]

that's the corvette module that buffs it and populates it in the tech inventory, yes

[swift sand]

see <#nms-questions message>; type !faq in #nms-commands for a list of helpful commands; anything else just ask

[main bone]

so i will also need to scavenge for the ballista

[livid crest]

how do i plant nip nips?

[stuck berry]

kinda, or just trade for it using salvaged modules

functional modules are worth more in the trading interface (reactors, shields, weapons etc)

[main bone]

this is the only thing titled in the trading interface which has cyclotron, so once i trade for this it will allow me to install the ballista or am i misinterperating this

[fathom flume]

thanks, why is it recommended that you disable pvp?

[analog wasp]

IF they can roll them i was thinking if Mabye the ideal compo/pets could be ones with some skills of the element that is strong agains their strong defensive element. I.e: a fire tipe (defensively strong against anomalous) with some tropical skills.

[stuck berry]

As I told you before, yes.

[main bone]

ok sweet haha thanks heaps

[stuck berry]

If it wasn't, then I would not have said yes

[swift sand]

got to unlock the nipnip planet blueprint, either for free or with salvaged data from anomaly, then build it at a planting spot, like a dome's, or freighter grow room

[main bone]

was just tryna make sure i had it right damn

[livid crest]

planet blueprint,i swear i checked the research stuff and i couldnt find it

[swift sand]

just to make sure that you dont a) get accidentally shot by a friend when playing together b) other players who like to kill others cant kill you (see options/difficulty/death consequences)

[swift sand]

nah, goto anomaly, construction research station there

[fathom flume]

ah fair enough, thanks

[livid crest]

okay thanks

i just built my first corvette,can i still keep my old ship?

[silver bluff]

I’m at this point can I unlock autophages now?

[livid crest]

where is it?

[swift sand]

yep, unless you're at 12 active ships already

[livid crest]

no

i went nad clicked the corvette as "add to collection"do my upgrades stay at the iold ship?

[swift sand]

yep - now all you'd need is to lift the seal off an harmonic camp if you havent already. type !faq-echoes in #nms-commands for more infos

[swift sand]

yep - though you could package them and move them over to the corvette

[livid crest]

but how do i access my old ship?

[silver bluff]

How do I find one of those?

[swift sand]

quick menu/summon/other ship

[livid crest]

ohh

whew

[swift sand]

in short, need a suitable dissonant system and an echo locator. see <#nms-questions message>

[tiny vortex]

is this important borthers? appart from being a first spawn ego booster

[swift sand]

nah, no function this one

[hallow swallow]

Hi. I'm on my second day in the game and I saw a big building on my planet and I landed there to see it and there were some robots flying and I hit one for fun and then it started shooting me so I went to my ship to leave and then some "sentinel ships" started shooting me and I killed many of them but then a giant ship named "sentinel mothership" landed on the planed and many smaller ones appeared and they lowered my ship's health very much and it became red and then I got to my base and landed there and then exited the game while I was being attacked. What do I do now?

[tiny vortex]

log back lol

[livid crest]

is there a quick transfer way to put all my stuff from my old ship to my corvette?

[tiny vortex]

once you discoenct most threats and aggro disapear

[hallow swallow]

I hope so

[tiny vortex]

you basically shoot a sentinels nest

[swift sand]

basically, you found a sentinel pillar building, shot some sentinels, got a wanted level, went to ship which spawned sentinel ships. exiting the game, or reloading last save, will kill wanted level, it's not permanent. for example, landing at the space station or in the anomaly would have also reset wanted level

[tiny vortex]

you either burrow yourself waiting for them to not find you or kill them all.

[dusty dove]

Did the update change anyone's creatures or wonders? I have this blood bubble looking guy, but to every other player, he looks like Kryptonite. This didn't happen before the Xeno Arena update.

[hallow swallow]

ok thanks

do people actually destroy that ship?

even in the end game

or it is impossible?

[swift sand]

@hallow swallow looked like this, yes? there's a terminal there, that you can interact with - even allows you to shutdown sentinels on that planet (state that persists till next reload/restart or leaving the system)

[swift sand]

nah, not impossible. see <#nms-commands message>

[hallow swallow]

i wasnt like that. It was more like a big house and the door was locked

and it had robots

[swift sand]

probably unintentional on the devs part i guess? i'd suggest raising a bug report - but there's more planets with that kind of animal, try focusing on planets/moons with gold on the resource list to find more

[swift sand]

oh i see, then it was a secure building like a manufacturing facility

[tiny vortex]

ooooh, then a normal sentinel guarded structure.
if you wanna trivialize them just shoot the door, enter the structure, hide quickly inside behind some curtains lol

[fast hearth]

I’m in a system with a black hole. How do I face it and fly to it?

[swift sand]

use cockpit camera and the mini radar to look for the purple sphere - aim at it, then pulse to it

[hallow swallow]

I tried to shoot the door but i did 0 damage

[swift sand]

need to use a weapon, not mining beam

[fast hearth]

There’s no icon?

[swift sand]

no icon on hud, no - using the mini radar, you'll be fine

[hallow swallow]

ok thanks. I will go back later

[fast hearth]

Ooh ty

[swift sand]

@fast hearth even better image:

[jolly bolt]

Hey, I just build my first corvette but the doorway to the cockpit wont spawn soo.. what do I do?

[fast hearth]

Tyty

[swift sand]

try to save+reload; did you make sure that it had a corridor/room snapped to cockpit?

[jolly bolt]

I tried reloading and yes

[swift sand]

that's weird. maybe some other part you built on the outside is blocking it then? but basically, if you build a hab, snap the cockpit to it, then go in, it'll be open

@jolly bolt try to resummon the corvette (swap to diff ship, then resummon corvette)

[fast hearth]

I found a frieghtrr. Can I “steal” it? How do I enter it?

[jolly bolt]

tried that too 😬

[silver bluff]

I did the directions I found the camp all I got was sentinel ship location how do I trigger the autophage mission

[swift sand]

you need to lift the seal off the multitool cabinet too, did you do that as well? then after you do, simply warp out of the current system, and wait in space for a quest transmission to pop

[silver bluff]

Alright

[fast hearth]

I found a freighter, how do I enter?

[jolly bolt]

fly in it

[fast hearth]

My ship can’t, it’s too big

[jolly bolt]

if its a starship then you should be able to fly in

[swift sand]

try to delete these maybe?

[jolly bolt]

alright let me try

[swift sand]

to dock with a freighter when using a corvette, there's 2 blue bubble like docks on the side of the freighter

dock, leave seat, then goto hatch and beam down

[fast hearth]

Ahh
I was looking for a physical hatch or smth, tyty

[jolly bolt]

still not working

😭

[swift sand]

can you try using a corridor and a cockpit of the same type? maybe it's those parts you put above it, or maybe some you put under it. i literally cannot repro this if i build a basic corvette, just a basic body with a hatch+hab+cockpit

[steel pebble]

help whats this it spawned out of nowhere

[swift sand]

only has a purpose if in the starbirth quest

just a space encounter, not related to your current mission

space encounters happen as we pulse around in systems

[steel pebble]

do i gain anything from it

[swift sand]

it only has a purpose when doing the starbirth quest - no function or reward otherwise

[steel pebble]

k ty ig ill just kill it

[swift sand]

iirc i dont think you can

[jolly bolt]

like this? also didnt work sadly

or wait i think i know what it is

[swift sand]

with these intricate builds, it's easy to place a part that then glitches the others

[jolly bolt]

i got it i placed the landing bay one level below the cockpit lmaooo

thanks for the help dude

[thin lagoon]

Thinking about replaying older expeditions, just started playing a week ago, should i Play them in order from first to last or last to first?

[swift sand]

personally, if i was to, i'd start from exp1 - see how they evolved with time, from expedition to expedition

[thin lagoon]

Was thinking that too, but i heard pioneers was an insane grind and i don’t wanna Get burned out on the first expedition lol

[swift sand]

do the redux for sure then yeah

[thin lagoon]

It’s shorter? And same rewards?

[wet sigil]

It's the same rewards, though I don't think it's shorter, not that it's already short enough as it is

[fast hearth]

What’s the point of a save beacon when leaving me ship auto saves?

[wheat cove]

You can put it in a base so you don't have to go to your ship. Or use it as a marker for later.

[fast hearth]

Lwk useless imo cuz I can just summon a ship but fair, ty

[wheat cove]

For example, I drop one on a harmonic camp when I'm hunting for sentinel ships, because it puts a marker on it

Or I use them to mark resource nodes I want to come back to

[supple goblet]

May i ask, is there any bug that can make me never find a s tier dreadnought, i have been hunting since yesterday till now but i mostly got c, the best is 1 a. Ty

The tier is like 95% C, which make me wonder

[frigid wadi]

Strange but true: The mini-radar is something that NMS shares with Elite:Dangerous. They are both identical and work in the same way. not sure who came up with it first

[swift sand]

outlaw system? 85% drop chance for C, 5% for each of the other classes. on average, players are still gonna get the s-class drop faster in outlaw

[supple goblet]

oh... 85 C no wonder

i was wonder how it be too low XD

ty bro@swift sand

so outlaw is literally gambling system XD

[cold storm]

I think it's supposed to be a reference to a space game from early 80s? From what I've heard so idk if its true.

[fast hearth]

Ok so, I found a ship, fixed it but now when I went to the place the ship is still there but it’s the old version. Is this a bug? I can still use my variant cuz I claimed it but this is p much inf money no? I can keep salvaging the old ships parts?

[worthy gust]

how is it for multitools and also the royal/alien type?

[wet star]

That, iirc, would be the original Elite

[supple goblet]

Is there any difference between types of freighters? Since i hunt pirate cuz it looks cool but i dont know much abt attribute or any unique trait

[cold storm]

Oh wow it is one! 3d wireframe game.

[swift sand]

afaik it is intended for a crashed ship site not to regenerate that fast, some kind of glitch or unknown/undocumented behavior

[swift sand]

class drop chances are the same for ships (except exotic, LS and corvette ofc), multitool cabinets, freighters and frigates. dont know what's the spawn chance on royal and alien exactly, but they're not incredibly hard to find, just takes a little time.

[swift sand]

nah, basically the only diff is looks and starting inventory size (but max upgrade inventory size is dependent on class, not looks)

[supple goblet]

oh naisu, oki, so i will keep farming for what i like, ty XD have a a nice day 🙂

[quick sierra]

is this still accurate?

[hushed saffron]

Does the "Fixed an issue which could incorrectly limit ship lasers." Fix in the latest patch mean corvettes no longer gain extra damage with 6 phase beam platforms?

[visual terrace]

Will I get my gear broken at the end of atlas quest?

[frigid wadi]

no, its just 16 jumps in any direction. you do not have to jump into the next galaxy

[swift sand]

unable to confirm sorry, but what i can confirm is that we're unable to claim a new settlement if we havent completed the very first interactions (making overseer building) on a settlement we already got

[swift sand]

i assumed it might be that, havent tested it yet. will try

[worthy gust]

so its better to look for S class multitools in outlaw systems? as well for freighters and frigates?

[swift sand]

2 things:

1. atlas path doesnt damage your gear, ever
2. artemis path/the purge mission can, depending on your choice, and whether you protected your exosuit and your gear against that damage or not

[swift sand]

well, if you only cared about finding s-class drops, yes

[quick sierra]

is saving and reloading still the best option to get an s class freighter?

[swift sand]

class that drops is random, and capital freighters still can only spawn in rescue battle events, so yes, if you want a capital freighter, you'd reload and rewarp

[urban crypt]

rewarp?
if you see a capital you want in a rescue event yoi dock before killing the pirates to save. and then reload from there.

[swift sand]

to retrigger the event

or iow, warp again

[frigid wadi]

If you want a system freighter however, you just need to pulse in the system and every time you drop out of pulse, the system frieghters will respawn

[swift sand]

if you see a capital you dock before killing the pirates to save
this strat doesn't work anymore

doing that will kill the battle

[urban crypt]

wtf did hg break now

[swift sand]

cannot save+reload in the same system the battle triggered in basically

it has been like this since like... endurance?

i forget exactly

so yeah, reload restore point and rewarp

[livid crest]

how do i quickly transfer all my stuff from my ship to my corvette?

[swift sand]

no way to do it as fast as you want to - gotta go the long way

[livid crest]

oh

also i just got an update,is there something new?

or is there an alert for that in the server

[swift sand]

6.34 <#nms-announcements message>

[urban crypt]

every day i know less about nms

[swift sand]

always feel free to ask, you know that 🙂

[urban crypt]

problem is i know the answers. they are just wrong.

[cold storm]

I've played over 200 hours and trust me there's still alot idk.

[proven frigate]

Should I keep this and upgrade to S class later?

[tropic ginkgo]

the game's not very esoteric with its mechanics, just buggy

[supple goblet]

Same but that is why i like this game, always something new

[livid crest]

can someone say an aproximate number to 100% in this game meaning all achievments and all side quests and main ones?

[tropic ginkgo]

if you like how it looks

[alpine ember]

wait guys... I didnt know

Atlas path quests are infinite?

i've been doing it forever thought it's a main story

should i just forget about them right?

[proven frigate]

Upgrading class is 10k nanites every times right? 🥲

Not going up each times right?

[tropic ginkgo]

to complete Atlas path you'll have to visit it I think 12 times
you know you're done when it changes to Atlas Eternal

[frigid wadi]

no, they have an end. Its a very long quest chain, but grind at it, and you will eventually hit the end

[alpine ember]

it's going to be written like that? "Atlas Eternal"?

[alpine ember]

oh ok! thnx!

[frigid wadi]

its just a LOT of jumping and finding a lot of atlas stations. remember by the way each time you visit one, there are words to learn by going over the white glowing circles in the floor

and think of it this way -- just finishing out all the quests merely means you completed the tutorial essentially

[inland ermine]

Bad news

10k is for B class

25k for A class and 50k for S class

[frigid wadi]

personally, i'd go into difficulty settings just before doing that and make purchases free even if its just for that one thing

[livid crest]

how do i sell my first ship?

[analog scroll]

Set it as active, scrap it in the space station. You cannot do this if it's your only ship

[livid crest]

i get money?

lol its only worth 3 mil

[analog scroll]

You get items to sell for money (and upgrades to use or sell for nanites)

[livid crest]

are teh scraps better selling on outlaw stations?

[analog scroll]

No, won't matter

[wheat cove]

You could also trade your ship to an NPC for theirs, and pay the difference (you don't get anything if yours is worth more, though)

[livid crest]

should i buy pirodrive thrusters? or the other one?

[eternal ledge]

I did the things and got staff but what staff if the best or like what upgrades should I do?

Is there like levels to the staffs?

[analog scroll]

Once you unlock the first one, you can use the polyphonic core to find autophage camps, do missions for them to earn void motes, and buy your own staff parts and cosmetics. The different staff parts are cosmetic only, but can be mixed

[wheat cove]

Staffs have a class (S/A/B/C) and base stats like any multitool.

You can upgrade them in exactly the same way, too

[eternal ledge]

Is there certain upgrds?

To make them op

[analog scroll]

Same as any multi tool. Whatever you want to put there

[eternal ledge]

Ight

[livid crest]

when im in my corvette i still only see the outside buildings avaible

[analog scroll]

What do you expect to see?

[livid crest]

the room stuff?

i saw it till now

[analog scroll]

Decoration tabs

[livid crest]

like the storages

[analog scroll]

Change tabs

[swift sand]

too close to a planet base perhaps

[analog scroll]

Or that

[livid crest]

even when flying

only in space

[wheat cove]

Storage should be on the utilities tab with the teleporter (ring) icon, I think?

[eternal ledge]

What are these best upgrades?

[livid crest]

i meant the storage that you can build in the corvette

[wheat cove]

Yes

[analog scroll]

The ones you like or the upgrades to the weapon(s) you like to use

[livid crest]

wdym

[analog scroll]

There are no "best"

That's odd

And do you have them unlocked for planetary bases?

[livid crest]

okay works normally now

[gusty wing]

Ancient Ruins... in spaaaace (apparently). I tried to google about this and didn't turn up people having this problem. Maybe my search was too specific?

[analog scroll]

Bug. Save/reload will fix it

[dark pendant]

How does one unlock the "Special Rewards" at the quicksilver vendor?

[analog scroll]

You own the (Steam only, limited itme) DLC or pre-order bonuses

[dark pendant]

ooooh ok

tyvm

[livid crest]

how do i shoot the salvaged data from corvette?its not working

[wet star]

If you mean "freighter:" are you sure it's not one owned by you or another player?

[livid crest]

corvette

[wet star]

Hmm

[solid oasis]

I don't think you can...the container isn't something that disappears like fossils or something. You just have to get out of your ship and collect it manually.

[livid crest]

bk said smth else

[analog scroll]

Put the corvette in hover, open the landing bay, shoot with your multi tool

[near matrix]

Asking for a friend: If they have the exocraft summoning room on their freighter and their freighter is in the same system. Why would it say that they don’t own the exocraft when trying to summon them on land. (For reference. They do own them)

[marsh zealot]

you can shoot containers like the Salvageable Scrap but not the data since that only works if you interact with it

[livid crest]

ohhhhhh

[marsh zealot]

they need to have an Exocraft Bay on a planet somewhere

[wet star]

And you're sure said friend has built the geobays somewhere, and did not thereafter remove them?

[near matrix]

I don’t have any anywhere and I can summon all my crafts.

[wet star]

Mind you, they don't need to be in bases. They just have to be somewhere

[marsh zealot]

the game normally works by checking if you have the geobay for the particular craft. just keeping them down on a planet anywhere is fine so long as one exists.

[near matrix]

If you delete a base do they vanish with it or stay?

[marsh zealot]

if you delete the base and they were in the area ... not sure. i never tried. i'd assume they wouldn't since it's not a thing requiring a base computer

[wet star]

And if they do, I'm still not sure how that'd affect ownership status

[near matrix]

Is there any way to find them if you have deleted the base but they may have stayed?

[wet star]

No, but you can always build another.

[near matrix]

Now asking for me because that means mine are littering the planet somewhere 🤣

[proven solar]

Switch to creative, make a base, delete and see what stays?

[solid oasis]

The freighter exocraft summoning station only lets you summon the exocraft you have unlocked, it does not unlock exocraft you don't have.

[marsh zealot]

well if they DO destroy with a base, they'd end up deleting your ownership since no geobay exists anymore, but you have that one technology that keeps all the component bits so i'd assume they'd end up in there and you just rebuild it

[wet star]

Eh. Space is big. No biggie.

[marsh zealot]

everytime i've deleted all the geobays i've had i couldn't summon the exocraft anymore so i just left them on some random rock i've forgotten where they are now

[near matrix]

I’m guessing making another one wouldn’t erase the previous one?

Well oops 😂

[marsh zealot]

you can make dozens of each geobay....they just work like summoning stations at that point

[wet star]

The only real reason why you'd strictly need to find an old geobay is if you want to customize, but that can also be achieved by just keeping them all at your base(s).

[marsh zealot]

btw was that update to the game on steam anything special?

[analog scroll]

#nms-announcements

[wet star]

I take it it's just the usual slew of post-content-drop bug fixes.

[near matrix]

It was originally at my base but I moved galaxies. It’s ok. I think I can track them down.

[marsh zealot]

ah ok nothing special then

[wet star]

You can still access those bases from any teleport terminus at any space station, or the Anomaly. Galaxy borders don't apply to them.

[swift sand]

it seems that we still get a benefit from using 6 - tested against sentinel space police freighter hull, no additional phase beam modules installed, no supercharging, progressively climbs till 10k damage on damage hud numbers (4 weapons, around 7k damage; 5 weapons around 9k damage, 6 weapons around 10k damage)

[hushed saffron]

Oh thats good

Thanks :)

[near matrix]

I meant I deleted it. I don’t like to litter the universe with my bases. (Or confuse myself) so I deleted all of them 🤪

[wet star]

Oh. That changes things.

[split sleet]

Hello! I have an issue with No Man's Sky multiplayer. My friend and I want to play together but a mistake occurs when we try to join up. It's on PS5 and I'm on PC (steam) but when joining the game of one or the other, an error message appears: "Mismatch error". Is this due to a recent update?

[analog scroll]

PC/Steam is, as of today, an update ahead of everyone else

You just have to wait

[split sleet]

Ok tks ! Do we know when the update will be on other platform ?

[wet star]

No.

[solid oasis]

For now...but other platforms will get it in the next hour or two most likely.

[wet star]

I'd say maybe in a day or two, but that's just an educated guess.

[split sleet]

Thanks a lot, thats all i wanted to know !

[wet star]

It's not even HG's fault, it's the console manufacturers.

[solid oasis]

Depends on the platform, PS5 and GOG are likely to get it today, maybe PS4. Xbox likely a day or more late, and Switch is impossible to predict as it doesn't have Xeno Arena yet.

[potent frost]

I broke it

[analog scroll]

Definitely a bug there

[wet star]

I uh

[potent frost]

Funny bug:v

[wet star]

Wow

Please do dispose of... Whatever that is.

[potent frost]

Ik it's dangerous there 2 now:c after I reloaded

[hushed saffron]

Ive seen that error before when save editing eggs incorrectly and I still have no idea what Ferdrium is

[hot birch]

I've gotten that, and if you have multiple of the same egg, discarding one and then hatching another should work

[eternal ledge]

Is there only the one staffs u sent a pic of? @analog scroll

[split junco]

If I uninstall No Man's Sky from my computer, will all the save files etc delete too?
I need to free some space on the computer's memory and it's taking a lot of space there

[analog scroll]

Those are the only parts available to us. You need 1 head, 1 core, and 1 pole. You can mix and match. The head + the terminal used to assemble the staff determine both its coloring and its starting class

[eternal ledge]

I see ppl with like a circle looking with triangle whats that?

[analog scroll]

Back them up first. !faq-savefiles in #nms-commands will show you the exact path, depending on platform

Expedition Info

Game mode explained:

Expeditions are an alternate time-limited, season-like game mode with a set of challenges rewarding exclusive items that can be claimed in any and all of your saves, in any game mode account-wide.

To get past expedition rewards, you must wait for possible future expedition re-runs (see past expeditions) or possible future Twitch Drops campaigns featuring old expedition rewards (see past campaigns). You may also obtain certain rewards via other unconventional means, including ship trading or using a "service bot" in the Creative Hub Discord. Additionally, PC players ( ) can get past rewards via save editing or #nms-modding.

They updated fsr versions not too long ago. I'd have to dig through patch notes to see when and to what

[rapid cedar]

what does one do with waste? I have the gravity thingie but idk doesn't seem destructible?

[crystal lagoon]

i havent played in like a year. trying to glitch place exterior freighter stairs into the first floor like i used to. did they patch this in any way? or am i just bad

[modern rapids]

Cant join my friends multiplayer session, it say wrong version how to fix it?

[hushed saffron]

Bring it to a waste processing plant, you can find one by scanning with exocraft (colossus specifically).

[hot birch]

Make sure you're on the right version and not one PC vs Switch vs PS

[rapid cedar]

oh okay guess need to get colossus first

[honest folio]

same here

[honest folio]

so when will the consoles be patched to play with their friends agein ?!

[modern rapids]

how to make sure you are at the same version?

[hushed saffron]

You unlock the flatbed for the colossus after processing 1 waste, and there's plenty lying around at processing plants make sure to throw waste into the right disposal spot to get rewards for it

[analog scroll]

Steam is on 6.34, no other platform is yet

[hot birch]

Ask them?

[analog scroll]

We don't know. Soon

[honest folio]

wtf this is stupid :D:D

[hot birch]

Their version has to be the same as yours

[analog scroll]

We're just players, and HG does not control console verification processes

[hushed saffron]

Im pretty sure HG staff aren't even allowed to interact with people in servers like this

[honest folio]

i know but its super stupid now i just lost connection to my friends and cant join their game anymore untill thei patch?! 😄 why

[twilit thorn]

that would be funny, but that would also mean they are not chasing buggies

they have a clone account to stop in to the various fan servers to take temp

[steel pebble]

is it normal that some systems doesnt have stations?

[hushed saffron]

Maybe

[hushed saffron]

Yes

Those are uncharted systems

[twilit thorn]

yes some

[hushed saffron]

You can tell on the galaxy map because thete will be no race, economy, or conflict information

[analog scroll]

95% of red star systems and 40% of green and blue are uncharted. Uncharted systems have no space stations

[hushed saffron]

On the race filter they appear white

[twilit thorn]

and even normal for some to have broke down stations

[steel pebble]

ty 😮

[hushed saffron]

Uncharted are also the only places tou can find synthetic fauna

So did atlas quest unlock anything or just lore?

[analog scroll]

Lore, and it wil be required to unlock purple systems, after you finish the Autophage missions

[visual terrace]

Is autophage the echos?

[worthy gust]

is there i way i can skip the storm i want some beautiful pics

[analog scroll]

Photo mode should let you manipulate the weather. It definitely lets you manipulate the sun

[worthy gust]

i think reloading saves skips it

[leaden totem]

Is there a setting in a game that stops random people from going into your base and taking things? What's it in the network area right?

[worthy gust]

might take 2 tries

[copper root]

why did incinerator got removed

[analog scroll]

Because the devs decided to do so. There's one for the minotaur, though

[analog scroll]

No one is taking anything from your base. If they interact with your storage units, they see the contents of theirs

[copper root]

meh i kinda wish one extra close range for multi tool besides the shotgun one

[tight fog]

Players cannot take anything unless you have enabled the "allow anyone to edit" rule under network settings

[eternal ledge]

What does reaching center of galaxy do bcs I did and it just put me 700k ly away?

[gray shoal]

It puts u in another galaxy.

[solid oasis]

It lets you go to the next galaxy in order.

[eternal ledge]

Oh fah

[leaden totem]

Okay I was just wondering because I was exploring last and found somebody's base. I was able to go inside and look at what they have along with their farm they had set up. I was able to open their machines and look at the resource or even take it...

So just wanted to see if there was a setting to stop that lol

[knotty frigate]

Is there a step by step to getting a space whale?

[patent forge]

I have a similar thing too (an abandoned base, in my case). I try to think of it as a feature-bug since it not ruining my gameplay.
You know - sensors malfunctioning, noises, anomalies...

[tropic ginkgo]

what do you mean by "space whale"
ship?

[knotty frigate]

Leviathan frigate

[tropic ginkgo]

only one what
the unique ship as an expedition reward? yes

can you still get it? also yes

In settings you can reduce the price of things, down to free if you want.

can I increase the quantity I can buy?

cost isn't the issue

[solid oasis]

Not really...have to travel to other systems to buy more.

[shell ridge]

No.

[mystic lake]

:(

can a save editor help in that regard

[knotty frigate]

What are they for?

[solid oasis]

Save editor can probably edit how much of something you hold to add more to your inventory but it can't alter how much shops sell. What are you trying to buy though?

[mystic lake]

everything pretty much :/

besides weapons

[shell ridge]

They reveal camp sites for a race you discover through the story line.

[solid oasis]

Well there are a lot of resources you can automate for mass production at bases.

[mystic lake]

for ship upgrades?

[shell ridge]

They want S class tech modules

[knotty frigate]

Man I guess I haven't played much of tht story I got so side tracked

[mystic lake]

yeah I have a sd and nanite farm already

[solid oasis]

no...raw resources like gases and minerals.

[shell ridge]

That is easy to do. I'm always lost on my own side quest.

[mystic lake]

yeah I recently realized I forgot to go to the center of the galaxy 🤦

[thorn ember]

What food should i look into if im trying to get more resource yield?

[solid oasis]

Stellarator.

[shell ridge]

There's a food chart in the pins in the #nms-spoilers channel.

[knotty frigate]

I've had some story spoiled for me and I dont wanna go yet lol I keep ignoring Apollo

[thorn ember]

Thanks!

[mystic lake]

is there any extra stuff to do with an autophage settlement? Or is it like a normal one

[mystic lake]

I was very invested in it lmao

[shell ridge]

The game doesn't end when you finish the Apollo missions.

[stray badger]

How much of the progression is locked by main story cuz I kinda wanna do other stuff

[knotty frigate]

Oh good

[shell ridge]

They produce different items.

[knotty frigate]

Can I get a freighter first? I wanna track down a capital one but I keep seeing system ones

[mystic lake]

oh

[shell ridge]

There is way more out there. And completing those missions unlocks others. Plenty to enjoy.

[tropic ginkgo]

you are never required to go through the galaxy center either

[solid oasis]

It produces some better stuff over time...you can have it produce warp hypercores instead of normal warp cells, as well as tainted glass or whatever it's called that sentinels drop.

[neat hawk]

im brand new and just finsished the tutorial, im in the big ball place with actual people inside. anyone know anything cool to do? or any way to make money?

[mystic lake]

if you head to the terminal in the center of the ship docking area you can do missions with people

[stray badger]

I heard rich ppl there give u money but idk

[mystic lake]

spoils the fun accepting the money imo

[neat hawk]

ooo sounds fun

[neat hawk]

like actual people give you money?

or is it an npc thing

[shell ridge]

I have mine make inverted mirrors, which refine into nanites. I take a couple stacks into expeditions to buy my ship in them.

[mystic lake]

yea

[neat hawk]

dang alright

[mystic lake]

speaking of which, any idea when a new expedition is gonna happen?

[neat hawk]

im gonna try out the mission thing thanks

[rapid cedar]

In derelict freighter is it bad to get into the scanners?

[mystic lake]

have fun!

[knotty frigate]

So I just keep jumping to a 3 Star system and hope an S class capital freighter spawns?

[mystic lake]

you can also buy upgrades for your suit and ships

[shell ridge]

It's your choice to use it. You can discard unwanted items you receive instead of selling them.

[stray badger]

It is a very long grind though I’m feeling so poor rn

[knotty frigate]

And is there only one look for pirate freighters?

[mystic lake]

yea

[junior wadi]

is there like a space station with alot of technologys as im trying to find them and most just have repeat or random ones

[mystic lake]

tbf I got given like 100m and I kept about 10m to buy a cool looking ship early on

[neat hawk]

actually before i do the mission thing how do i sell my ship i got like 3 spare ones

[stray badger]

What is gas for I don’t think I’ve gone that far but I unlocked all the extractors n stuff in the anomaly

[mystic lake]

go to a space station and head to the back. Make sure its selected and go to the terminal on the left side

should be an option to scrap it

[neat hawk]

appreciate you

[shell ridge]

Those are weapons in the ceiling.

[solid oasis]

You can only trade a ship for another or scrap it and then sell the materials. But you can't outright sell a ship.

[stray badger]

My old ship should be like 3M is there a reason to keep it though cuz it’s the only starship I have the other is a corvette

[shell ridge]

Crafting items. Or selling for units.

[hollow talon]

Is there a way to improve fighting skills of companions in the xeno arena using the egg sequencer? I have a triple S radioactive egg that I want to see if there is something that I can improve using the egg sequencer

[mystic lake]

up to you

[neat hawk]

so could i pool 4 of my dookie booty broken ships i found for 1 good one?

[mystic lake]

I keep extra ships for storage

[mystic lake]

when you find a new ship you can exchange your current one and make up the difference with cash on hand

can't exchange multiple at once

[tropic ginkgo]

buyable tech is randomized, higher chance of better upgrades at higher tier economies (I think)

[neat hawk]

dang alright i got no cash ill figure something out to progress

[stray badger]

What’s some upgrades yall recommend to get asap for corvette i literally just did the bare minimum

[shell ridge]

There are building tips in the #nms-corvette-discussion channel. They use the same tech modules as other ships.

[solid oasis]

Maybe...depends how much those ships are worth. You get about two thirds of their value to sell when scrapping them but broken slots don't count towards their value so if they have lots of broken slots they won't be worth much. You're better to a dissonant system and fixing up an interceptor...good ship that doesn't need slots fixed, takes 10 minutes to claim.

[wheat cove]

You can't change skills or class in the egg sequencer. You can modify height/aggression which have passive bonuses.

[neat hawk]

issue is i have no idea what that even is let alone how to find

i have a total of like 2 hours

with no prior game knowledge

[hollow talon]

Do you know what are the best traits for a companion?

[solid oasis]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBncEz_wczw

[vital matrix]

Whats the best pet ?

[wheat cove]

Personally, no, I don't. A lot of people like gentleness because it makes your pet heal itself.

[solid oasis]

For what? What do you intend to do with it? For the Xeno Arena or what?

[vital matrix]

Yeah for the arena

[subtle aurora]

what living frigates are most useful?
is it better to go for stats, fuel reduction or duration reduction?

[solid oasis]

No one pet is best...ideally the higher the class the better so you'll want SSS pets but there are 8 types and each type is strong against one type and weak against another. My plan is to collect 16 battle pets, 2 of each of the 8 types.

[vital matrix]

Alright thank you

[mystic lake]

SSS? Does the ranking go higher only for pets?

[wheat cove]

No, that means rank S on each of the 3 categories (combat, agility, health)

[mystic lake]

oh

[wise reef]

Once you have a full fleet, duration reduction is pointless. Once your ships level up, every 5-ship group will be a 5 star fleet. So prob fuel

[solid oasis]

Not sure what you mean exactly but while you can level up pets you can't increase their class and their class has a huge impact on how good they will be at level 30...a CCC pet will still suck at level 30 too.

[vital matrix]

Can I get different types of exo suits ?

[subtle aurora]

figured. is it correct to go for 5-ship, btw?

or should you just do 1-ship expeditions if the stats are enough?

[wise reef]

5 ships per mission is safest yes. Eventually you can have 30 Frigates, and 5 missions per day would use 25 of them

You can send fewer, but they are more likely to get damaged

[wise reef]

No. You can change the backpack and suit appearance, but the suit is the suit

[vital matrix]

Alright

[wise reef]

Exo suit should also be the thing you prioritize in upgrading

[vital matrix]

I have 1 last question, is there a specific ship that is classed as the rarest

[analog scroll]

Squid type exotics are the rarest non-expedition and non-dlc ships, but ships are a personal preference

[wise reef]

Expedition reward ships, followed by Exotics are probably the rarest.

[vital matrix]

Thanks you 2

[analog scroll]

There's an exotic in every populated system, but only 1 in 20 are squid type

[vital matrix]

What does the squid look like?

[wise reef]

Actually, in terms of player use, I would wager shuttles are probably the rarest ship.

no one flies a shuttle

[mystic lake]

rarest ship is the one you are looking for

[hushed saffron]

Fr

[vital matrix]

Oh wait I have that

[hushed saffron]

In terms of raw rarity, it is probably the squid ship or a specific sentinel interceptor configuration that is rarest (though i feel like the interceptor one barely counts)

[open smelt]

What should I do in nms I’m bored are the atlas missions good?

[vital matrix]

I have an sclass sentinel ship too

I also got this dreadnought yesterday

[analog scroll]

The story, then the autophage, then what you need to unlock purple systems

[uneven vale]

yo guys what does off planet means

[wise reef]

No, but necessary to unlock some later content

[analog scroll]

Not on the planet you're on

[hushed saffron]

I meant more like a specific interceptor design, like these wings and those thrusters, would probably be rarest

[wise reef]

it means it's on a different planet in the system than the one you are on now

[vital matrix]

Alr thanks

[open smelt]

But I already have purple systems

[analog scroll]

Then whatever you want to do

[open smelt]

But idk what to do

[hushed saffron]

I like to set long term goals for myself

Like rn my big goal is to find my dream planet

A white grass paradise world

[analog scroll]

Stasis device farming bases

[hushed saffron]

Then construct a series of bases that lead to that planet

[open smelt]

Alr

[analog scroll]

I've been looking for one of these, off and on, for years

[hushed saffron]

Or find my dream sentinel interceptor

[sour ice]

Build a villa or find SSS creatures

[hushed saffron]

Things like that

[hushed saffron]

Theyre so rare 😭
Fortunately I know that if I keep looking I will EVENTUALLY find one

[wise reef]

We all hit that point sometime. Build bases, manage some settlements, design a cool corvette, etc.

[hushed saffron]

My fear is that I've already warped to a system that is right next to the one my dream planet is in

Or even worse, been in the same system as it before i had my freighter scan

[vital matrix]

Could also collect pets and battle them in the arena in the anomaly

[wise reef]

I got my dream Interceptor a while back, though it was off a YT video and i used a portal to go grab one. I'd maybe change 1 or two minor elements, but I love it.

[hushed saffron]

I got my interceptor this way too, but I've moved to a corvette and now want a different interceptor with a different style, but I kinda wanna find this one legit

"Legit"

Both methods are valid

But you know what i mean

[wise reef]

White Dragonfly with tank legs, 3-point star eye, and no front fins blocking vision

[hushed saffron]

Oh nice

Im thinking probably something similar but probably red and gold/white

Red and gold to match the rest of the stuff I own on this save

But from what I've seen those are very uncommon colors on an interceptor

[wise reef]

I also have a fat yellow one that I turned into my asteroid mining ship because it resembles a bulldozer

[hushed saffron]

Lol

[peak compass]

I still have the starter ship, how do i get a better ship?

[analog scroll]

Buy one from any NPC pilot you see landing

[hushed saffron]

(Personally I would still hold onto radiant pillar tho, thing has saved me more than once)

[mystic lake]

how many of these until I unlock living ships :/

[hushed saffron]

(But like add another ship to your collection ofc)

[floral flint]

uhhh

[analog scroll]

4 total organs to mature

[floral flint]

first time getting to the atlast station

and it wants me to submit

[analog scroll]

And you have to know the portal glyphs by the end

[floral flint]

does this have any negative effects>

[analog scroll]

Submitting is the only way to continue the story

[wise reef]

My baby 😄

[floral flint]

ah i see oki

[wise reef]

Last week I was in the anomaly and I landed right next to someone with the exact same ship though.

is maybe the only downside to using a public found ship

but was also kinda cool to see someone with the same impeccable taste 😛

[mystic lake]

I found mine off of reddit

worth it

if I reallyyyy care about uniqueness I'd make my own corvette

[wise reef]

Yeah, I have 300+ hours on this save and I have NEVER seen an exotic in a station, so I finally caved and found a crashed one in the style I wanted on NMSCE

[tiny vortex]

quick quiestion for the music enthusiats:
Is this Dire Straits??? or just another song

cause its a missed oportunity

if its not

[wise reef]

Well the name is absolutely a reference

idk if the song is similar tho

[tiny vortex]

just dont wanna spend 800 quicksilver on a deception lol

[gray shoal]

Name is a reference but melody is diffrent

[muted lion]

How i get 250 radon

If anyone got pls gimme i can trade something for it if u want

I need 250

[gray shoal]

Refine sulphurine

[frail turret]

I had the same thought exactly, then went and bought it... Could have bought something better tbh...

[floral flint]

i found a crashed ship but this time its owned by an npc and i cant just flyoff in it, but i can repair it, is there any point?

[frail turret]

You will get the reward at the end...

Other than that...

[wise reef]

https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=716814943055184 -- it's third. Prepare for disappointment, though I can maybe hear a little bit of inspiration in it

[floral flint]

whats the reward for fixing it

[swift sand]

usually some standing/basic material

[alpine knoll]

how do i teleport with glyphs? I see ppl uploading vids on tt and yt where we have to input glyphs

[wise reef]

You need to find a portal

[floral flint]

oh thats kinda stinky

[alpine knoll]

like the ones in space stations?

[analog scroll]

You find a portal and input them. You have to have them unlocked to be able to use them, and you have to be in the same galaxy as your intended destination

[alpine knoll]

how do i unlock them

[analog scroll]

Finishing the story is the most straightforward way (and is required for autophage and purple systems)

[wise reef]

find traveller graves, some other methods I forget

[alpine knoll]

the entire story or a specific storyline?

[analog scroll]

The Artemis Path. The primary mission you have that is not titled The Atlas Path/Atlas Eternal or The Space Anomaly

[wise reef]

Artemis Path I think?

[alpine knoll]

ohh okay ty i think im almost done with it, im on quest 16/16 about to wipe the atlas

[analog scroll]

you're close

[marsh zealot]

refine sulphurine straight or refine sulphurine + oyxgen, or set up an atmospheric harvest on an irradiated world.
If you park your Freighter in a Blue Star system you can make a stellar extractor room harvest the radon that way as well

[analog scroll]

Or mine it from gas hotspots

On every Irradiated, Frozen, or Green biome planet

[wise reef]

There is also a creature that drops a TON of radon when you kill it, on irradiated worlds

like runaway mold, only different

I'll tell you what its called in a sec...

Mutant Plant

killing one just got me 823 Radon using an upgraded MT

they appear in clusters, one-star yellow item of interest on irradiated biome worlds

[mystic lake]

what is solar panel power for?

[analog scroll]

On your suit - Makes life support drain slower during the daytime

[mystic lake]

ah

[earnest steeple]

Is this a new bug ? I've noticed that when you buy or exchange a ship and do a quick transfer of your items to the new ship that those items disappear completely. This is the second time it has happened now.

[analog scroll]

Seems to be a bug

!hg

[neat hawk]

how do i make or get platinum?

and parafinnium

[earnest steeple]

Mining asteroids

And parafinnium is mined at earth-like planets

[neat hawk]

im on a paradise right now seems earth-y enough right?

trees and stuff rocks everywhere

or is earth like its own thing

[earnest steeple]

Press F and look for the blue icons, like when you're mining for copper, for example

[neat hawk]

ah alright

goat ty

[earnest steeple]

Most planets that have star bulbs also have paraffinium

[swift sand]

all planets with star bulb on the list will also have paraf

[swift sand]

also, if you got access to a 2-input slot refiner, you could refine gold+silver for platinum also @earnest steeple

[earnest steeple]

Oh cool, did not know that

[neat hawk]

yo hugee my paradise has it

thank you both

[mystic lake]

does anything besides the stars matter?

[neat hawk]

im gonna have to do it manually though working with a portable one rn

[swift sand]

note that a combat type expedition can have non combat encounters - so if you're too weak at other stats, you might fail an encounter or two. 150 score at each of the stats, like you got combat rn, means that the fleet is basically never going to lose a combat encounter

[mystic lake]

oh I see

so its worth having a balanced set with some bias towards the mission type

[quick sierra]

the economy of a system does not play a part in settlements right?

[swift sand]

or no bias at all, just get the 4 stat types to 150

[swift sand]

not that i'm aware of

[mystic lake]

oh sweet

wdym by 150?

like total?

[gray shoal]

Gold+silver

[swift sand]

take your fleet: sum the "frigate total" and the "capital ship&upgrades" combat scores, you get 150 combat

[austere lichen]

can I upgrade my multi tool at anomaly? cannot seem to find if so xDD

[analog scroll]

No, only at space stations

[hushed saffron]

Is there a list of all the moves creatures can perform in xeno arena somewhere

[tender oyster]

yo, When does Update release On xbo app (pc)

[analog scroll]

When Microsoft releases it

[swift sand]

see <#nms-fauna message>

[hushed saffron]

Cheers

[runic zephyr]

why is my Screen freezing with game still running on background every few minutes, it started happening after I bought rtx5070...

[swift sand]

hmm - so game is running, just not focused? and that freezes your OS every few minutes?

[supple goblet]

Do sentinel ships only spawn on specific planets?

[analog scroll]

Only in populated dissonant systems where the dissonant planet does not have gold or rusted metal as a resource

[hushed saffron]

THERES A REVIVE MOVE?

[supple goblet]

I have unlock the autophage, does it have any extra benefit in finding the ship?

[analog scroll]

The Autophage are everywhere, crashed sentinel ships are only in the systems and on the planets I listed

[hushed saffron]

Are autophage in uncharted systems...?

[stuck berry]

No

[distant plank]

whats the best way for getting corvette parts? i would like to have a few of every part so i can build something cool

[hushed saffron]

Figured

[stuck berry]

Nor are they in abandoned systems

[supple goblet]

Oki, ty :> i was searcing sentinel on a random planet for 20 mins XD

[hushed saffron]

Hmm can non-dead (and gas giant) planets ever have no fauna

[runic zephyr]

while playing the game randomly freezes visually (the screen gets stuck), but auudio continues normally in the background, and the game seems to still be running. I can hear movement and actions, but image does not update...

[analog scroll]

!faq-interceptor in #nms-commands shows you exactly how to find them

[stuck berry]

In abandoned systems, yes

[hushed saffron]

Oh interesting

[stuck berry]

I believe like 10% of abandoned system worlds are just assigned to lack fauna

Or it's 1 per system or smth

[hushed saffron]

This doesnt apply to uncharted?

[stuck berry]

No, they are different

[hushed saffron]

Intriguing

[supple goblet]

Ty for your sp :> have a nice day :>

[hushed saffron]

Interesting lore implications there lol

[stuck berry]

In uncharted, 10% of worlds with fauna will have their fauna replaced with Synthetic fauna, aka 2 species of robot antelope and 1-2 species of walking building

[swift sand]

hmm, try to delete game install folder\binaries\settings\tkgraphicssettings.mxml, then launch game - test without making any further changes

[hushed saffron]

What's up with walking rocks and buildings btw? Is it just a random very small chance for any rock or building on any planet to be a creature? Do they appear on the fauna list or can they be tamed (that one mod included)?

[warm vine]

Around a year ago i changed my steam username, but planets, systems, and creatures that I discovered prior to this are marked as discovered by my old steam username, which is my deadname. Is there a way to change this?

[swift sand]

• living buildings are robo fauna - so only found in uncharted systems, like regular robo fauna, and they do appear on the fauna list
• walking rocks are a special thing, not all planets will have them, they have a low spawn chance, and do not count as fauna species

[hushed saffron]

Interesting

I think I've seen the walking rock thing be an actual structure instead in a video once, not like the normal synthetic walking building guys

[stuck berry]

Yes, that's a small bug related to some buildings having rooms with breakable rocks inside them

[hushed saffron]

Ah lol

[stuck berry]

And the "covert to living rock" thing never expected this in it's logic so it applies to the entire building, not just the rock

[swift sand]

this is what i was referring to by "walking rocks"

[hushed saffron]

Yea those guys

[solid oasis]

Yes. During expeditions your frigates can face checks of all types and those will be checked against the frigates' specific stat...even a combat expedition can face trade, exploration, or industrial checks and if it doesn't have those specific stats high enough, it will fail said checks.

[hushed saffron]

I think I've run into one once

[ocean ridge]

Hey new to the game any tips anyone wants to recommend?

[swift sand]

rare to find, but once on a planet that did spawn one, that planet can spawn them again

[hushed saffron]

Can these be tamed with the mod that lets you tame creatures you normally cant?

[swift sand]

some more tips here <#nms-questions message>

[analog scroll]

!faq-beginnertips in #nms-commands is a good place to start. Personally I'd say focus on the story and don't get too distracted, at least at first

[swift sand]

sorry, i dont know

[hushed saffron]

Only one way to find out >:)

[muted lion]

What i do

It doesnt show wich one

In the teleporter

[analog scroll]

Find a teleporter and look for that mission symbol, or open the galaxy map and look for it if it happens to be nearby

[solid oasis]

I don't think so as they are not actual planetary fauna...just a fun thing you can sometimes see when you try to mine a rock and it walks away. But not actual fauna you can interact with as far as I am aware of.

[hushed saffron]

Indeed

[stuck berry]

Most creatures similar to them can be adopted using that mod

Like sandstorms, enemies aboard derelict freighters etc

[hushed saffron]

I think i can also create one with an online creature creator and then overwrite another creature with a save editor to get it

[hushed saffron]

Wait sandstorms can be adopted??

What

[stuck berry]

With a mod, in an extremely broken and non-functional state

[hushed saffron]

Lol

[analog scroll]

Sandworms, not storms

[hushed saffron]

Oh

[stuck berry]

That's what I assumed you were referring to; with the mod

[hushed saffron]

That makes more sense

😭
