[flint girder]

I use infra-knife + photon cannon

[swift sand]

many like to go with phase beam, to be able to shield leech and regen shields easily when in combat

[flint girder]

infra-knife shreds the shield and doesn't require much aim, and photon cannon shreds the ship and doesn't require much aim

You noticed

lol

[swift sand]

yeah, like @flint girder said above, gotta do it manually (just pinging to make sure)

[flint girder]

Mhmm

lol

I've also just realised i accidentally discovered an infinite source of warp cells

[supple goblet]

Can i get a capital freighter (not dreadnought) without rescue mission? And do rescue mission guarantee s class?

[flint girder]

No. You must rescue two freighters first, decline to take the freighters both times, take the monetary reward. Also rescue mission guarantees a free freighter. It does not guarantee any class.

[supple goblet]

Oh shit... So after that, i can have s tier?

[flint girder]

Yes

[supple goblet]

I mean like s class only appear in rescue mission?

[swift sand]

capitals only spawn in rescue battle events - you could get a s-class freighter drop before you even start spawning capitals

[swift sand]

no, as long as system isnt t1 eco

[flint girder]

nope. They can appear randomly too

[ivory belfry]

But we could buy, an S class one correct?

[flint girder]

Yup

[supple goblet]

So what is the purpose of rescue mission?

To unlock s class?

[swift sand]

the event by which capital freighters were designed to be acquired by

[flint girder]

To get you your first freighter for free and alternatives after you have it

[ivory belfry]

Like fer a billion bucks? lol

[flint girder]

anywhere between 20mil to 180mil

[ivory belfry]

Wow, thankee

[supple goblet]

So if i never do rescue mission, will i still able to BUY S tier?

[flint girder]

You don't need to BUY it

[winter wolf]

nothing in the game has tier locked behind anything

[supple goblet]

Cuz i cant do rescue, somehow, the sentinel show up

All the time

[winter wolf]

access to s-tier is never a problem

[flint girder]

To clarify. The first freighter you obtain from a rescue mission will always be free.

[swift sand]

those freighters you see spawning in a system sometimes: even those can be s-class, it's all a matter of rng drop chances

[rustic lagoon]

Any ideas how to get around ''version mismatch'' I'm on PC and a Friend is on PS5

[swift sand]

freighter class is never fixed

[flint girder]

Are you by any chance attacking the shields and general freighters in the middle of the fight?

[swift sand]

gotta wait for ps5 to catch up, steam is ahead since today

[supple goblet]

Uhmmm. Maybe...

Since i keep aim blind...

[flint girder]

That might be the issue lol

[supple goblet]

Oh dang

God, its so hard to fly with my old mouse

And my little war machine laptop XD

[flint girder]

I mean logically if you shoot a machine gun at a terrorist holding two people hostage and you kill both the terrorist and one of the hostages. The survivor is going to be upset. You could've done better.

[rustic lagoon]

Don't suppose you know roughly how long it usually takes for ps to catch up??

[flint girder]

lol

[swift sand]

nah, sorry, we're all just players here, no idea

[rustic lagoon]

Thought it was worth a shot but Thanks anyways 😁

[supple goblet]

XD sorry to bother you both @swift sand . Cuz chat gpt said capital s tier can only be earn by rescue mission XD, so it makes me confuse

[flint girder]

Not the chat gpt 😭

[swift sand]

first two screenshots are capital freighters, last shot is pirate freighter. yes, if you wanted to get one of these, no matter the class, you could only get one via a rescue battle event.

system freighters can just be found warping into inhabited systems after the first rescue battle is completed iirc

[lone marlin]

should i unlock the recipe for a Mind Control Device by fighting Sentinel ships or breaking into Manufacturing Facilities?

i dont want to buy a frigate just for the recipe

unless someone can trade me one

[swift sand]

the blueprint is unlocked in the freighter bridge, upgrade terminal, nowhere else afaik - dont need to go out and buy a frigate for it. that said, yes, someone could give you one, it's also possible to drop from mission boards sometimes

[lone marlin]

i mean also not buying a freighter

[swift sand]

i dont recall it being possible to unlock at manufacturing facilities, since those have the same research trees as the synthesis laboratory in the anomaly

[lone marlin]

or do npc ones work?

[swift sand]

any recruitable freighter would work, you'd have to own a freighter, but you'd need to farm salvaged frigate modules unless options/difficulty/purchases=free

[fast hearth]

How do I start making an exocraft? Like the blueprints and all

[flint girder]

You don't. Just place the bay that stores it. It makes it for you

[swift sand]

geobays can be unlocked from anomaly construction research station with salvaged data, or most of them for free from various secondary missions

[fast hearth]

Fair ty

[flint girder]

Starting to get an impression of your favourite emoji @swift sand

[urban arrow]

does hardframe engine have a function apart from selling it?

[swift sand]

much traveler love - my fav emoji is 🙇‍♂️ though //offtopic

[flint girder]

Yes

[swift sand]

besides being used to install hardframe legs iirc, nope. edit: forgot donations to mercenary guild

[swift sand]

oh and repairing it ofc, but we can use repair kits for that

[urban arrow]

oh okay, thanks

[urban arrow]

btw, wheres that page at?

[swift sand]

@urban arrow in any case, can always get more, so dont have to hold on to them

[flint girder]

Wait it can also be handed it at some envoys right? @swift sand

[swift sand]

check this one out https://nomanssky.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page

[swift sand]

ah yesss, good one, to mercenary guild envoys

@urban arrow ^

forgot about that, getting sleepy lol. i'm off 👋

[flint girder]

@swift sand What the hell is this

lmao

[proven frigate]

The starship storage upgrade item, can it drop from salvage any tier starship?

Because I don't want to spend 50 millions on 1 slot, buying random C class is way cheaper

[flint girder]

Yes. However it is more likely to be obtained from exotics or haulers

The higher class the better

[normal hemlock]

I think my game is buggin out, how do i fix. relogging doesnt work

[flint girder]

My best one was buying an S class hauler for 20 mil or so and getting 3 storage augments

[gentle lagoon]

How often does NMS update the game? I'm on xbox game pass(PC), and been trying to play with friends, but the different versions between steam and game pass is so frequent. The last month or so has been days of incompatiblity, then 1 or 2 day of it being compatible, then a patch drops and I need to wait another 4-5 days again.

[proven frigate]

I'm on a planet that spawn broken sentinel ship everywhere >:)

Gonna fix and claim them all for that

[flint girder]

repair it. scrap it. profit.

[proven frigate]

This game is so peak, I like seeing numbers going up 🥹

Put in 21h on first 3 days I got the game

[flint girder]

Technically i'm seeing my nanites slowly go up right now. Since i'm using my freighter scanner on every system i enter i get a lil bit

[zealous kettle]

few questions:

[flint girder]

few answers:

[zealous kettle]

1. Are S class multi-tools possible and if so what type of system can I get them in?
2. Are S class frigates possible and if possible what system can I get them in?

[flint girder]

so proud of myself

[proven frigate]

Since I have S class rifle now, should I scrap my S class pistol since it have way less slots?

[zealous kettle]

yo you should like... give it to me somehow

[flint girder]

1: Yes. Any i think.
2: Yes. 5% chance in outlaw systems, 2% in 3 star economy, 1% in 2 star, 0% in 1 star

Wait that's frigates

uhhh idk frigate chances

[flint girder]

No

[zealous kettle]

what did you think I was talking about

[flint girder]

Freighter

Much freighter talk recently

It's also just better to not buy an S class frigate

[zealous kettle]

also I got like 3 of these and it is lowkey getting annoying😐

wait

[austere garnet]

my freighter starts bugging out when I warp to new systems. For example the rooms like the planet scanner are disappearing. Any help?

[zealous kettle]

there is a difference between frigates and freighters

OH

[flint girder]

Yes

[zealous kettle]

WAIT

like

the small ones vs mothership sorta thing

I mean the big one

[flint girder]

Yes

Ahh well then my answer was correct then

big one is freighter

You want to go to an outlaw system for an s class capital freighter

5% chance

[zealous kettle]

ok

[flint girder]

A three star system is only 2% chance

[zealous kettle]

does it look like anything specific or no

[flint girder]

No

[zealous kettle]

ok

[zealous kettle]

isn't that for like

actual starships tho

[flint girder]

Nope. That's for all of them apparently

[zealous kettle]

ok

[flint girder]

APPARENTLY that is

If i'm wrong i blame @swift sand

I can however guarantee outlaw systems = best chance at S class freighter

[austere garnet]

Anyone know how to counteract this bug? my freighter starts losing rooms when I warp to new systems.

[zealous kettle]

respawn it ig

[flint girder]

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

close game, reopen game

Fixes most issues

[austere garnet]

I've tried respawning it and closing the game

Opened and reclosed and bug is still there

[zealous kettle]

thought you meant the freighter at first ;/

[zealous kettle]

Idk then

[hot birch]

Re-asking

[flint girder]

I mean technically dismissing and resummoning it would turn it off and on again

[austere garnet]

also every time I warp it clones more freighters around it for some reason

[flint girder]

AHA! I know the solution to this one

Turn it off and on again

Worked for me 👍

[granite slate]

Ive talked with every traveler iteration I can find, but im still missing someone for Trace of Metal

[flint girder]

(close your game, reopen it)

Try clicking on a different mission in your log, then back on it

[supple goblet]

I was searching for how to get bigger freighter, and its automatically answer on google XD

[zealous kettle]

yeah no joke either just look at the mission log and it will tell you or if it is something you can do in a new system, do it in a new, previously uncontacted system

[flint girder]

Silly

[supple goblet]

Damn, ok, well, ty this hunting process will break my back bone XD

[flint girder]

Indeed it will

[granite slate]

I meant in the anomaly

[zealous kettle]

uh

[supple goblet]

It took me near 20 hours just an A class dreadnought...

[zealous kettle]

idk

[flint girder]

Can you share a pic of the mission in your log?

[flint girder]

Rip

[supple goblet]

And the rescue, is there any homing weapon, cuz my aim is terrible, i surprised that i still can hit any button on the menu XD

[granite slate]

During trace of metal when yoou have to talk to three people in the anomoly and get parts, ive only found the first two tht give parts. I cnt find a third

[flint girder]

Yes. Hold down S

Literally will aim it for you

[austere garnet]

Tried closing out the game and got an error message haha!

[supple goblet]

I do, but they keep shooting around the target T,T

[flint girder]

Yeah sometimes you just gotta NOT shoot

or manually aim

[supple goblet]

Is the message from the universe XD

[supple goblet]

Im using the infra knife now, is it good?

I just change my ship so i lost all my black market upgrade

[flint girder]

Well it's literally the best ship weapon for destroying ship shields

[supple goblet]

Its a little bit weak when i use, perhaps there is something else idk

And it overheat fast

[flint girder]

Slap on three S class modules around it

and the infra-knife upgrade you can research

at the anomaly

EASY wins

[supple goblet]

Hmm..., let me try tomorrow

[zealous kettle]

worth it? y/n

[supple goblet]

I have play from 9am till now, im abt to die 😛

[flint girder]

No. Not S class

[zealous kettle]

found this on my second check in a 3 star system lol

[zealous kettle]

so I should wait to find S class

ok

[flint girder]

Wait

You have one already

Oh

Why?

[zealous kettle]

no I have a class B'

[flint girder]

Yeah i mean you have a freighter

in general

[zealous kettle]

yes

[flint girder]

Why did you settle for a B class?

[zealous kettle]

pretty sure I got it for the mission where you get a freighter and I just got somewhat lucky

so like

over 2 years ago

lmfao

[flint girder]

Oh

nvm then

Do what you gotta do

[supple goblet]

My first one is B too, since i suddenly saw a big ship and i think i should see inside and meet the capt, yeah, then i buy it

[flint girder]

Mannnn you guys breaking my heart over here

[silver canyon]

Hello! New to this server, forgive any mistakes 🙂 is this the correct channel to ask for technical game help?

[zealous kettle]

what do these mean again

[flint girder]

Yes

[hot birch]

Storage and tech slots

[supple goblet]

U gotta see me laugh in joy when i got my first freighter, its a B

[flint girder]

One of them is how many cargo slots it has unlocked, the other is how many technology slots are unlocked

[zealous kettle]

ok

[supple goblet]

Storage slots

[flint girder]

😭

I couldn't bring myself to settle for anything but an S class

[supple goblet]

Then i accidentally exchange it for a C, somehow i read C as S

[supple goblet]

My first airship is a C too...

[flint girder]

Ohhhhh....

Mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

[supple goblet]

I was dumb, i jusst bought this game 4 days ago...

[silver canyon]

Bless, I am struggling. Trying to finish the autophage quest and failing. I installed my polyphonic core (useless at finding anything other than scrap). Found two harmonic camps on two separate planets, but they’re empty. No autophages to interact with and move into the “Audience with the autophage” or “prayers of the machine” sub quests

[flint girder]

"was"?

🤣

[supple goblet]

Yes, i wass dumb, now im dumb, but faster

[zealous kettle]

what is an airship

[flint girder]

Ah see now have you tried pressing C to activate your scanner?

When you are there at the camp

[supple goblet]

I mean star ship, dont know why i keep calling it airship XD

[zealous kettle]

oh

[silver canyon]

Im on switch, the command is to press down on the L joystick

And yes lol

[zealous kettle]

Lowkey I have over 500m units and I have no clue how I got them

[supple goblet]

Same, i got 1 bil too

But now i only have 300 mil

[hot birch]

Is the core charged?

[zealous kettle]

this guy started 3 days ago

[flint girder]

Hmmm, can you show me a pic of your mission in your logs?

[supple goblet]

I buy storage slot for spaceship with units...

[silver canyon]

It is!

[zealous kettle]

#1 biggest waste of 700m 😭

actually money in general

[flint girder]

YOU WHAT?

[supple goblet]

Yep, and 44,9 hrs of gameplay :>

[zealous kettle]

bro

[supple goblet]

This game is so addicted

[zealous kettle]

bro u spent

SO MUCH UNITS

[flint girder]

I also did that and then realised i made a mistake

[zealous kettle]

DO NOT SPEND MONEY ON SLOTS IN INVENTORIES

[supple goblet]

Actually i spend 800 mil, but i got more after that 🙂

[flint girder]

lmao

[supple goblet]

Btw, that ships i spend on, i exchange it for sentinels and squid

[silver canyon]

Sorry for potato quality

[supple goblet]

Since i full of ship

[frozen stirrup]

I was playing with a friend, he's on pc and i'm on console, but he got an update and now we can't play together

[flint girder]

All good, have you tried selecting either of the other two missions it tells you to in your log?

And if so can you upload a pic of them?

[zealous kettle]

thought you were on an ipad for a sec

[supple goblet]

Oh yeah, i just done this today, scroll down, there are 2 more side quests, u must done it first

[solid oasis]

With the quest pinned, exit out of the menus and look at the prompt in the bottom right corner of the screen...what does that tell you to do?

[silver canyon]

Do you mean the audience and prayers? I don’t think I can activate either until I can interact with an autophage

[flint girder]

No they're activated. Just look in your logs

There is a second page to your logs

[zealous kettle]

@flint girder if I trade for the A class does my storage and stuff transfer or no

cuz I wanna know if I have to take the stuff out or not

[flint girder]

I have no idea. I don't think so though

Better safe than sorry

[supple goblet]

Yes u have to do it, it will ask u to create staffs

[solid oasis]

Wait, nevermind, it tells you right there...you have two other quests to do before this one proceeds, do one of those.

[flint girder]

@silver canyon Go to your logs, there is two pages to it. The missions you want are on the second page

[silver canyon]

@solid oasis Jfc I’m dumb

[flint girder]

@silver canyon

[silver canyon]

Many hours spent trying to figure this out

[flint girder]

There you go

lol

[silver canyon]

Being stupid is exhausting

Thank you so much

[flint girder]

All g

[hot birch]

Any way to skip the loading screen when you land on a planet in a new galaxy or no?

[flint girder]

If you're on keyboard hold Tab

[hot birch]

That doesn't do anything

It's not strictly skippable in game

[flint girder]

Oh

[supple goblet]

Yes, the audience and prayer

[flint girder]

a new galaxy

No.

No way to skip the new galaxy cutscene

[hot birch]

:( ok

[supple goblet]

The new galaxy gave me flashbang

Btw, how to unlock more galaxies

I only unlock hermit for now

I heard there are 5

[hot birch]

255

[supple goblet]

U mean 5?...

How...

[flint girder]

No

256 galaxies actually iirc

[mossy cape]

I just stopped a pirate dreadnaught attack and this time instead of the usual C class it is an A class. My current freighter is an A class hammerhead though I barely use it. What do I need to do to make sure I don’t lose anything when I take the dreadnaught? What is transferred automatically and what needs to be transferred by me and what can’t be transferred and will be lost?

[supple goblet]

So each day pass, there might be a whole new galaxy to discover...

[supple goblet]

The transfer base only transfer yourr base design

[hot birch]

Portal, activate, spam first glyph, go through portal, warp through galaxy center (might have to warp closer first)

[flint girder]

@supple goblet Every time you reach the center of the galaxy, you can go to the next one in the list

[supple goblet]

So u will have to manually transfer the rest

Oh god, @flint girder @hot birch I have to do all those again 🙂

[hot birch]

Make sure you're a. in hilbert, and b. I would recommend buying a ship first to avoid the breaking of your stuff

[supple goblet]

Oh yeah, i broke my exotic one

Then i have to get rid of it T,T

So sad

[flint girder]

No you don't

[supple goblet]

The ball ship

[flint girder]

You can just repair it

[supple goblet]

What

U can?

[flint girder]

...

istg

[supple goblet]

I thought the galaxy warp is permanent damage... Like cant fix

[hot birch]

rip

[supple goblet]

...

[flint girder]

No

It is not

[supple goblet]

So basically, i lost my ball ship...

[flint girder]

You are

Something else

[lone marlin]

are we able to build on settlements yet

[hot birch]

Like a base?

[mossy cape]

Can I please have a confirmation and explanation or a second opinion on what you need to do before accepting a new freighter to not lose anything??

[lone marlin]

like building stuff you can build on a base. without the base since you cant put one on a settlement

[supple goblet]

Ok, first, manually transfer all your important stuff to your other storage. The tranfer will only transfer your interior design

[hot birch]

You should uninstall all of the tech in your old freighter, and if you're trying to copy the base, put 3 different throwaway items in the cargo inventory

Before copying

[supple goblet]

Idk abt the 3 things, what is that for?

[hot birch]

Don't know, and don't know if hg intends on addng that

[mossy cape]

I don’t know what you mean by base. I am talking about a ship

[hot birch]

Avoid a bug that prevents the copying

[supple goblet]

Oh...

Damn

[hot birch]

The freighter base?

[supple goblet]

"the base" is the ship interior, the coridor, the flower room, the portal, it will be the same on the new ship if you want

[mossy cape]

I didn’t build one

[hot birch]

Oh, then just uninstall the tech

[flint girder]

Did you, or did you not, place down any rooms, storage rooms, refiner rooms, on your current freighter. IF SO, then that is your freighter base. If NOT don't worry about it

[hot birch]

And take the cargo out

[supple goblet]

Yeah, dont forget the cargo

[mossy cape]

Isn’t storage linked to containers on a planets base?

[hot birch]

Yes

Transfer the physical freighter cargo

[flint girder]

They're talking about the cargo slots in the freighter

[proven frigate]

To upgrade Corvette class is it units only?

[mossy cape]

So by cargo you just mean stuff on the freighter page

[flint girder]

Yes

[supple goblet]

Yep

[flint girder]

Yes

[hot birch]

Nanites

[proven frigate]

😔

[supple goblet]

Carugo shippu :V

[proven frigate]

Even worse

[flint girder]

Don't worry i know a brainless grind you can do to earn heaps of nanites fast

[supple goblet]

Should i build corvette? I have freighter now

[proven frigate]

I will probably find S class Capital freighter before I get enough nanites for S class Corvette

[hot birch]

You can build it whenever

[supple goblet]

That is my plan XD

[supple goblet]

Like can it have better stat than normal ship? Like i want to have a list of what to prioritize

Since im poor now

[flint girder]

Runaway mold. Find a deposit of 15+ on a planet, set up a teleporter nearby, harvest it, teleport away, teleport back, they've respawned. @proven frigate easy nanites

[flint girder]

Yes it can

[zealous kettle]

@flint girder lowkey just found an S clas on my third try no joke

[flint girder]

I hate you

[supple goblet]

Damn, can i unleash my friendly giant dinosaur Cookie inside?

[flint girder]

You're evil

[proven frigate]

:O

[supple goblet]

Omg, im so jealous T,T

[flint girder]

No

[zealous kettle]

I got the A class and everything and then saw another thing a little bit away and I am SURE glad I went to it LMFAO

[mossy cape]

As I said, I basically never use it.

[flint girder]

No animals on the corvette

[supple goblet]

I want to build a ring so i can lure my new meet friends in there with Cookie

[mossy cape]

I only really used the freighter to store starships. Do they transfer?

[hot birch]

Did you archive them?

[mossy cape]

I might have paid for a couple of frigates too. Do they transfer?

[hot birch]

...

[hot birch]

Frigates do

[zealous kettle]

wtf

[hot birch]

Archived starships should but I'm not sure

[supple goblet]

Oh god, when i have decision like u, it always C XD. Well, conrats bro yay XD

[mossy cape]

yes I archived a bunch of ships

[supple goblet]

Well, i have change freighter

[zealous kettle]

yo I am dumb asf

[supple goblet]

My ship still there

So i guess yeah

[hot birch]

I don't see why it wouldn't

[zealous kettle]

for the second time when taking stuff out of my ship I take out the matter beam so I HAVE TO GO ON MY FREIGHTER TO GET THE REST

[hot birch]

Worst comes to worst you can reload?

[supple goblet]

Remember i used to say that my first was B then C then blabla now A 🙂

[tardy cedar]

Also radiant shards give you nanites too 100 is like 5000 nanites

[supple goblet]

🙂

[supple goblet]

I got by kill pirate

[hot birch]

There's a reason I'm on iteration 39 or smth...

And why multiplayer is now off...

[supple goblet]

What is iteration 39

[hot birch]

Every time you die is a new iteration

[supple goblet]

I bought this game so i can play with other players, like luring them into my slaughter fun house, kind like that

[flint girder]

I advise against dying

[hot birch]

No it was one of my friends

[flint girder]

Sounds like a lot more time spent

[mossy cape]

I blew it. When I quit the game to discuss what I might need to do to avoid losing stuff, I went back and it reloaded before I had defeated the dreadnaught. When I did it again it wasn’t the Sam A class but yet another C class. L

[flint girder]

You can just disable pvp

[hot birch]

Yeah ik

[supple goblet]

....

[flint girder]

See now you can aim for an S class

[supple goblet]

Yeah, hope we can all get the s class we want

[flint girder]

No need to settle for an A class

[supple goblet]

I will need to rescue now, it even harder to get event like that than pirate 🙁

😠

[hot birch]

Are you aware of the freighter farm tactics?

[supple goblet]

Yes, but somehow it only works twice for me

I tried it multiple times

[hot birch]

Interesting

[supple goblet]

Reload the game, reliad the laptop

[mossy cape]

Same

[supple goblet]

It always just twice

Sometimes it only happen right after i warped from the previous place

Like 2 systems 2 battles

[hot birch]

Do you go to the same system each time?

[supple goblet]

Yep

I even write down its name XD

[hushed saffron]

👀

Im listening

[hot birch]

If you do it again does it just not spawn?

[inland orchid]

What does this symbol on the galaxy map mean?

[supple goblet]

Do u wanna go to my planet, where there is no sadness, since there is no one left at all

[hot birch]

That's where you're frigates are doing missions

[hushed saffron]

Active frigate expedition i believe

[hot birch]

*your

[supple goblet]

Yep, or it will spawn in the next system if i warp away from that place

I got 3 pirate battle consecutive yesterday

[hushed saffron]

Do you mind if I come in my heavily armored and armed Gundam supermech that also has my life support or smth

[supple goblet]

All C

[hot birch]

Interesting

[supple goblet]

I even meet a bug that dublicate my freighter today

I go into the wrong one and got glitch

[hushed saffron]

Exqueeze me

[supple goblet]

Then my fan screaming like it was burning

[supple goblet]

Oh great, im finding friends for my friendly giant dinosaur Cookie too :>

[hot birch]

It should spawn every time you reload and warp

[supple goblet]

No, i mean it spawn in another system, after i warped from the system that the battle occcured before

If it a pirate system then it likely to be repeat again

Same stats

Make me angry for entire day

[hot birch]

So you defeat the dreadnaught, and then warp?

[elfin temple]

You save warp get battle check stats if don't like reload save

[hot birch]

Yeah ik

Not my q

[supple goblet]

Defeat it, found out it was C, reload savepoint, in THAT system again and there is no battle. Bored, then warped to ANOTHER system then another battle happen

So weird

Like the battle been delayed

[flint girder]

Ahhh

there's your issue

You need to reload to the save BEFORE you warped in

Ignore the autosave

[supple goblet]

Oh...

Youtube said auto so i just auto...

Dang

[flint girder]

Silly youtube

[hot birch]

Yeah that would do it

[supple goblet]

Ok, will try again tomorrow, so wassted 20hrs for nothing XD

Might aim for rescue now since it was more predictable XD

[hot birch]

What type of freighter are you going for?

[supple goblet]

The one that looks like from star wars

The nacho freighter

But how to know if it capital or not?

I cant measure size in space :V

[hot birch]

If you rescue it it's capital

Also if it has the freighter icon

[knotty frigate]

found a C class capital ship, do we keep looking?

or do we accept payment?

[zealous kettle]

keep looking

[flint girder]

Here's the step by step.
Play three hours.
Do 4 warps.
Dock at the space station of that system.
Get out of your ship (This has now created a manual save)
Get back in your ship.
Leave the space station.
Warp to an outlaw system.
You should now be in a rescue freighter mission.
Defeat the pirates (Without blowing up any friendly targets)
Accept the communication request.
Board the freighter.
Get out of your ship. (Exiting your ship on board an npc freighter is one of the only times exiting your ship will NOT create a manual save)
Use your scanner to check the class of ship.
If not satisfied reload your manual save

[supple goblet]

Keep looking

[zealous kettle]

what is the difference between starship types

[proven frigate]

Do I "hire to squadron" on this one? I tried to talk to normal npc but the only options are practice and learn language

[winter wolf]

you can measure their size by the number of storage pods along the side

[zealous kettle]

???

[supple goblet]

Oki, but i thought in outlaw, it will be dreadnought

[supple goblet]

Oh nice, ty 🙂

[winter wolf]

make sure this is your active quest, then follow the quest marker. it might point to another star system

it will point to a specific NPC

[chilly urchin]

I just found a distress beacon ship, I'm trying to repair the pulse engine. I have the hermetic seal and metal plate but it says this technology is critically damaged.

[flint girder]

Perhaps. But it's also your best odds of an S class.

[errant moth]

if you want to, you can also offer to buy the system capital freighter involved in the pirate dreadnought encounter

[proven frigate]

I see it now, it wasn't showing earlier, I had to leave and enter station again

[supple goblet]

Hmm, true 🙂 wait, if i defeat the dreadnought, can i jump on the ship i just rescued?

[winter wolf]

if you click on the broken tech in your inventory, it should open another screen that allows you to repair the components

[chilly urchin]

in my inventory? It's part of a ship

[zealous kettle]

[supple goblet]

Oh wow, but dang, i need a capital one 🙁

[winter wolf]

if you get inside the ship, open the ships inventory

[chilly urchin]

I have, it says I have the components but I can't repair it

[errant moth]

oh sorry, i must have been getting the terms mixed up all this time. the encounter is a dreadnought vs a capital freighter so yea it's a capital one

[winter wolf]

show that screen

[chilly urchin]

Oooh i had to claim it first I think

COOL! I got my frist non newb ship it's an A class

[supple goblet]

Oh nice >:) time to be a good guy for a bad reason 🙂

[vapid sun]

I cant figure out how to get to the system my mission is in through a teleporter

[errant moth]

keep in mind the capital freighter wont be free, and can be fairly expensive

[supple goblet]

Can u be more specific?

[supple goblet]

Dont worry, i have ton of things i havent sell

[winter wolf]

the teleporter will only take you to the target system if you've been there before. otherwise it will only take you to the nearest system you've visited

[supple goblet]

If it not more than 300 mil, im cool

Will it...

:)?

Thank god for that

I waste 800 mil for ship storage only before

[errant moth]

iirc at most ~200mil, then 'discounted' because you need to trade in your existing freighter which is probably also valued quite high

[supple goblet]

Shouldnt upgrade storage for everyship i have XD

[supple goblet]

Mine is an A tier dreadnought now

Looks cool but too dark, i dont need the sun but pls tell them to install a led lamp XD

The control room is like my room irl

[scarlet yacht]

hi guys, is there any chance to replay the remnant expedition? i sadly missed it and wanna get all that stuff

[zealous kettle]

expeditions replay every while and Im pretty sure they sometimes are the same so just wait

may take a long time tho

[winter wolf]

when an expedition is complete, that's it. they do seem to offer a Redux (replay) at the end of the year for all the new expeditions that year, but they don't start that until about November.

unofficially, you can do it via mods but you would have to ask in #nms-modding

[analog mulch]

Has anyone been able to find a tame-able sandworm pet, or are they only from expedition four?

[winter wolf]

check the pins, i believe

[winter wolf]

expedition only

[river radish]

Can PC players tame this guy with a mod?

[analog mulch]

oh thats heartbreaking

well thank you

[winter wolf]

you may be able to get an egg from another player if you ask in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[scarlet yacht]

ok thank yall guys✌🏼

[winter wolf]

or #nms-fauna

[analog mulch]

Thats good thinking and I really appreciate you for it

🫡

[hot birch]

What is wrong with the dissonance marker? (From a dissonance spike scan at harmonic camp)

[onyx pier]

where do you find "Aeron" parts for a corvette?

[hot birch]

Blueprints are from the expedition, and after you have them you craft them with materials

Aeron corvette parts cannot be found naturally

[onyx pier]

oh dang. Thank you!

[winter wolf]

might want to save and reload

[hot birch]

Yeah considering I just hit an invisible space wall that seems wise

[tender oyster]

Im at early game and I got som S class Mining modules, Could someonenspare some Deuterium, all i need is 200

[winter wolf]

The portals

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.

[analog mulch]

Mango do you know of anyone with a sandworm egg to trade?

Apologies I made a post there but wanted to be thorough

Thank you

[proven frigate]

Is there projectile speed upgrade for pulse spitter gun? it so slow :/

[hot birch]

There's fire rate upgrades

I don't think they affect the actual speed of the particles themselves though, just more

[wet sigil]

There isnt

[rotund tulip]

i keep seeing a ship that looks like this what is it and how do you get it

[proven frigate]

Cool

[wet sigil]

That is Starborn runner I believe, either that, or Starborn phoenix. Runner is a reward from expedition 12, phoenix is a time limited free dlc on steam. Both of these cannot be gotten anymore unless you save edit, or run exp12 off line on PC, or if someone trades them to you

[rotund tulip]

ahhh thank you

[flint girder]

Definitely runner. I have starborn phoenix. Totally different ships.

[knotty frigate]

Problem is you can't

[still void]

Question if anyone knows the answer, i play on steam but my buddy plays on playstation and hes behind a version or 2, is there possible fix for getting their game updated or must we just wait for the thing to get to playstation?

[flint girder]

Those are your only two options

[flint girder]

Gotta wait

[winter wolf]

this discussion should be spoiler'd or taken to #nms-lore

[flint girder]

True my bad

[knotty frigate]

mb

new question, where do we find the silly mold balls to farm?

[vapid sun]

i just bought an s class frigate and can’t find it

[winter wolf]

each planet will have one of the following: curious deposit, metal 'fingers', or sac venom. land on a planet and look for this icon through your analysis visor

if it's not Curious Deposit, go to another planet and check there

[winter wolf]

if you recruited the frigate, it will immediately warp away and reappear in your frigate fleet around your freighter. you can summon your freighter to your position using your Quick Menu while in space

[zealous kettle]

is it normal that I have found the same starship like 3 times in one system

[winter wolf]

each star system has something like 20-ish starship designs that it will rotate through

[zealous kettle]

ok

[winter wolf]

https://nomanssky.miraheze.org/wiki/Buying_a_starship#Additional_information

[tardy cedar]

It is normal yes I have done the same jus go to a different star system if u can't find another

[reef shale]

are they supposed to get this big?

[wet sigil]

Starship sized bugs? Yep

I nickname them Ultralisk strain of Banelings

[hot birch]

Is there a list of galaxies that require special drives to enter the core?

[inland orchid]

So this symbol in the galaxy map means there is a frigate doing an expedition?

[tropic glen]

I just started playing a few days. My inventory is always full, I have a refiner, should I be refining stuff to make more room? I have a bad habit of grabbing everything in case I need it later

[hot birch]

Send a screenshot?

[tropic glen]

One minute

My person and the ship storage

[hot birch]

I would break up the hyperclusters, crystals, and geodes

And sell the vortex cubes

[tropic glen]

Will do thank you

[hot birch]

How early game are you?

[tropic glen]

Hmmm I'm not sure

[hot birch]

Yeah I would sell them

[tropic glen]

I followed some quest for awhile all over then got these quests

[hot birch]

Oh and the pirate transponder, I would sell too

Depending on how low on units you are

[tropic glen]

I haven't looked up too much, just trying to enjoy the playthrough but I realized my inventory is always full

I will sell all of that, I opened up the stuff you recommended

[past onyx]

Currently trying to find a 3 star dissonant system. In the meantime how do i quickly acquire 50k nanites to upgrade from A > S? I currently have 2 Class A sents and really want that S upgrade.

[wet sigil]

The easiest would be to visit outlaw stations, buy up their suspicious tech and weapons packages, open them up to get X ranked tech upgrades, and then sell them.

50k should be fairly quick, provided you have the units to buy those

Once you have a dozen or so outlaw space stations on your teleport list, you can cycle them through the teleporter, by the time you get to the 12th, the first would have completely restocked, repeat as necessary

[austere nacelle]

what tags on a world should i look for that’ll have no hazards on and no critical weather events

[wet sigil]

Paradise planet, they are a subset of lush planets that has no storms and low sentinel levels

For avoiding strong storms, avoid any planets with activated stellar metal as a resource

[austere nacelle]

got it ty

[silver bluff]

How long for hatched companions to fully grow?

[hot birch]

1 day I think

[zealous kettle]

how do I activate the snapping on freighter it seems like no matter what it is in free place

[wet sigil]

Snapping only works for the rooms, the furnitures have no snapping

[zealous kettle]

breh

[wise agate]

How long it take for incoming update i cant play cross play with my friend since ps5 didn't received update yet

[bitter crypt]

We don't know. Each company has their own certification process for approving patches and updates, that can take varying amounts of time

[inland ermine]

Also, if you come by getting a little more cash than just petty couple thousand (around 300-400k units), start buying backpack slots at station vendors. Each station offers only one, but they're worth it. Alternatively, try to get some navigation data (from exploring, looting, any way) and trading them to cartographer for backpack upgrade maps, they will lead you to pods that will give you a free slot for some basic materials (carbon, sodium, etc.)

[wet sigil]

Also also, sometimes planet side galaxy trade terminals can sell the drop pod maps, and they are reasonably priced at around 120k each

[hot birch]

Is there a known number of times you need to defeat oceanus to get grandmaster?

[hidden estuary]

Soooo I just built my corvette and something is very incredibly wrong the camera is pulled WAAAAAAY out and I can’t land anywhere, dock anywhere or call it in the game just freaks out… help?

[hot birch]

Screenshot?

[hidden estuary]

So that’s a space station

Was trying to maybe mess about with the parts and it didn’t help 🥲

[hot birch]

Are you able to exit the build menu?

[hidden estuary]

I’m in the cockpit it happens everytime I do

[hot birch]

I would reload

[hidden estuary]

And this is outside the space station

[hidden estuary]

I have multiple times 🥲

Closed the game and reopened it and it’s just not having it

[hot birch]

Relaunch?

Oh

Reset your settings?

[hidden estuary]

I could try

Nope did nothing 😭

[hot birch]

All of them?

[hidden estuary]

Yep

My corvette is just mega glitched it seems 🫠

[hot birch]

This is when you're in the cockpit or standing in the space station?

[hidden estuary]

It only happens when I’m in the cockpit

And only for the corvette

[hot birch]

That's rly odd

[hidden estuary]

I’ve tried all my other ships and it’s fine

[hot birch]

[hidden estuary]

all done

[tropic ginkgo]

corvettes have this bug where it zooms you out super far away into random space, yes

[hidden estuary]

Guess I just can’t use my corvette for now :/

[hidden estuary]

Any known fix?

[dire marlin]

Is there a fix for the capital freighter issue with the recoloring

[charred lynx]

Any known solution for this problem? I'm on permadeath mode and can't get out of the structure

[alpine knoll]

go into first person view this happens to me most of the time and first person view always fixes it

[charred lynx]

I tried reloading (restored save and autosave)

[alpine knoll]

where’s the structure?

[hidden estuary]

I tried that it doesn’t fix it :/

[alpine knoll]

on your freighter?

[charred lynx]

inside the frigate

[alpine knoll]

freighter or frigate? Need to be sure lol

like did u build that structure or no

bc if you did you can just delete it

[charred lynx]

freighter srry

[dire marlin]

If it’s your freighter there’s an option in settings to reset location on your freighter

[alpine knoll]

have you tried warping to a different galaxy?

[charred lynx]

Can u do that while inside the freighter?

[dire marlin]

I can’t remember which tab it is currently under, but it is very easy to find once you look for it

[alpine knoll]

only if you’re within the construction area

[alpine knoll]

but do this first

[hidden estuary]

Yep I’ve tried warping customising the ship changing views reloading the save and even restarting the tried flying my other ships they work perfectly fine it’s JUST the corvette

Which absolutely sucks cuz that’s half the reason I started playing and now it’s turned me off from the game till it’s fixed

[charred lynx]

got it!!!!! thaaaaaaaank you

jesus I was getting very worried

[balmy badge]

I once lost a permadeath save to glitching into a freighter floor before

[hot birch]

There's this one outlaw station I can't go to anymore cuz I keep falling through the floor

[dire marlin]

Well while we’re here either of you got tips for a first perma run?

[hot birch]

What are your goals for your run?

[dire marlin]

Center of galaxy achievement

I’d imagine I just keep on doin what I did for survival yeah?

[hot birch]

Most likely

Trade outposts are your friend, especially for finding travellers and race items

[balmy badge]

I'd suggest take it slow and steady

[dire marlin]

Will do thanks a bunch

[hot birch]

Follow the white lines

[balmy badge]

Being hasty is death in perma runs, unless exploring

[charred trout]

Is the 2nd last snap for the void egg are the portal gloves always the same?

[balmy badge]

Tldr: Try to take it slow but try not to waste resources

[wet sigil]

Yes

[tame bane]

okay so im about to do the take a deep breath and to live forever achivements together in a permadeath save, what is the fastest way?

just duping warp cells?

[balmy badge]

Probably? I've never duped before tbh

[gusty sapphire]

Okay so I'm on PC and doing a Champion battle and it spawned in an outlaw anomaly and I can't do the battle or get the champion to spawn anywhere else

[wet sigil]

There is no need to dupe warp cells, you are better off just finding glyph and use that to warp close to the core, and then do the galactic warp, the fuel is the least of your concerns

[wet sigil]

Try to go to the outlaw system to find him there?

[gusty sapphire]

I did but it's empty. The outlaw npcs aren't spawning either. I did a reset and tried playing on my Xbox file and pc file and no fix so far :/

[potent frost]

it took 9:c

[gusty sapphire]

Bummed because I'm so close to finishing the missions

[wet sigil]

Try warping away like at least 4000 LYs from where the champion is, and see if a button called "reset progress using nearby structures" or something like that to show up

[balmy badge]

Fastest way to hunt interceptors down?

[worthy gust]

Meaning the ships you can fly?

[balmy badge]

Yeah, hoping there's a faster way to find them than destroying capitol ships/dissonance things

[flint girder]

There's plenty posted on no mans sky coordinate exchange

[tropic ginkgo]

harmonic camps

[glad meteor]

I've found this a random bug (about 1 in 8 chance) at any outlaw station in permadeath. Have to move fast with the AltF4 when it happens or it's all over I guess 😭

[balmy badge]

Sad that there isnt a faster way then

[tropic ginkgo]

harmonic camps are the fastest way to farm interceptors if you care about a specific look or money

[balmy badge]

I def dont need units, but gone through 163 diff interceptors w no luck finding what I want

[tropic ginkgo]

if you can't find the look you want in the catalogue, you'll have to do it on your own

[flint girder]

You can always search on reddit

What design are you after?

[balmy badge]

Full carriage, wingless, wide head

no accessories or just antenna

[flint girder]

So like this?

[tame bane]

How do I I find that glyph

[balmy badge]

No, thats a tank

[tame bane]

I have 16/16 on my main save

[tropic ginkgo]

https://nmsint.vercel.app/
filter for what you need

[flint girder]

You already have it then

It's the first glyph you get

[stuck berry]

So like this?

[tame bane]

Making new perma death save

[stuck berry]

This also mighttt count?

[flint girder]

Talk to travellers at space station

[stuck berry]

Glyphs are always learned in order, with that being the first glyph

[tame bane]

Are the glyphs from the atlas?

[flint girder]

Not entirely

[stuck berry]

What do you mean by that, do you mean The Atlas Path?

[balmy badge]

That does yeah, just praying that its not out of date

[stuck berry]

or the Atlas in general (lore wise)

[flint girder]

You can get them by completing the main story line

[stuck berry]

It's not, none are. Sentinel ships remain consistent since the Interceptor update, outside of purple ones becoming black in Echoes

[tame bane]

the atlas path

its been a while since I got them on my main save can't remember

[balmy badge]

I've seen a few coords for them that had entire diff ships

[flint girder]

I mean lore wise you want to do the atlas path not long after you reach the anomaly

[mighty carbon]

Which is for carbon and which one is for oxygen?

[stuck berry]

I have not yet seen evidence of this that is not result of user error, so far

[flint girder]

Neither?

[stuck berry]

some just type the glyphs wrong or don't know what a galaxy is

or don't know the saving and reloading thing when bases are nearby and mess up the ship spawn temporarily

[flint girder]

Gas extractor

[stuck berry]

Oxygen is not given from any plants, it can only efficiently be automated by using a Gas Extractor atop an Oxygen hotspot (found on all worlds) #nms-questions message

You can then use this Oxygen to refine it alongside Carbon or Condensed Carbon in a Medium Refiner or greater to create much more Carbon or Condensed Carbon respectively

[mighty carbon]

I know the gas extractor but in planets some trees and plants give oxygen and carbon so was wondering because i wanted to make small farm in my corvette.

[flint girder]

Even dead worlds?

[stuck berry]

Dead and Weird worlds have only Oxygen hotspots as their gas hotspots

[flint girder]

Unfortunately no oxygen farm on the corvette

[stuck berry]

all other biomes have both Oxygen and their respective biome gas

[flint girder]

Should I go back to the endless grind of a search for earth like planet. Or sss Helios? 🤔

[wet sigil]

Visit a few space stations for a traveler, they will pinpoint their grave to you, once you get there, do their short quest and they will teach you a glyph, the first one is always and that's all you need to get to the middle of the galaxy

[wet sigil]

It's Artemis path that gives you the glyphs, but for the sole purpose of reaching the centre and do a core warp, finding a traveller is faster

[fathom flume]

how early can you make a corvette ship? im like 1 hour in and already got a quest to make one but when I got to my first space station the parts were millions each to buy

[flint girder]

You don't need to buy the parts. You can literally loot them

[fathom flume]

oh dam didn't know that

[flint girder]

So probably two hours in. Maybe sub one hour if you try hard it

[wet sigil]

Also even if you need units to buy the parts, you can get the money you need by finding and scrapping an interceptor or two

[fathom flume]

I need to go look up how to get these parts then

[wet sigil]

You will need to find a planet with salvageable scrap, then dig them up like you would with buried technology (for salvageable data), but with an extra step of using laser to break the container instead of just pressing E

[fathom flume]

is that the wifi symbol?

[flint girder]

Yup. Yellow version though

[fathom flume]

ah sweet

[flint girder]

Also you can trade those parts in at the corvette terminal for other corvette parts

So say I get three aesthetic pieces I don't want. I can trade them in for possibly a reactor

[fathom flume]

thats neat

[wicked ibex]

dose anyone play perma death and wants to help me out

[mighty carbon]

How the class tier works on gas extractor?!

[gleaming spear]

friend of mine just bought the game and we can't play together because we have different versions or something? I'm on PC and he is on PS5

[mighty carbon]

Also what batteries status depleted means?

[wet sigil]

It just determines how many extractors you need to reach the 1k/hr income, higher classes means you don't need as many, so you can fit as many clusters of 1k/HR income into the same hotspot, but if you are only making one cluster, it doesn't matter a whole lot

[wet sigil]

Yes, the game was just updated on PC and hasn't gone live on PS yet

[abstract ivy]

yoo mod

[wet sigil]

It means it has no power in it's storage

[abstract ivy]

the ms store is up to date rigth?

or does it take a long to update ?

[wet sigil]

That I have no idea, I don't know if MS store goes by Xbox Live or by PC timescale

[abstract ivy]

oh

[mighty carbon]

Ok thanks now everything is working

[muted lion]

Someone told me once to get c ships but isnt A best then B and then C??

[errant moth]

it's different for non-organic frigates, cuz they will get benefits (and rank up to S) as they go on more expeditions

[copper root]

how do i use the ai mino to mine autonomously

[tropic ginkgo]

doesn't work

even when the description says it does

[errant moth]

but on a relative level yea, A class obv better than B or C class, but pretty sure a C class non-living frigate that worked its way to becoming A class ends up better than a 'natural' A class

[copper root]

what kind of a useless robot function is that

[balmy badge]

A natural A/S frigate almost always has lower than a C that became A/S

[blazing tusk]

Don't think that's true

[wanton night]

Hello, what modules i get from Destroying the Dreadnought ship please? like the 6 expeditions types and the hyperdrive so once i get them no point to Destroying the Dreadnought anymore?

[flint girder]

I do

[blazing tusk]

There's a big misconception about leveling up C classes always being better than natural S classes. But the base stats are equally random for both

[balmy badge]

With fuel consumption it is true

[blazing tusk]

How so?

[errant moth]

if it's a misconception then id like to see it debunked (and let the relevant ppl know, im not one) bc it's also listed in faqs of this server

[balmy badge]

At bare minimum, fuel eco is better

S class support (not leveled) always uses 2-8 fuel, a leveled from C always uses 0

[blazing tusk]

There's no evidence in favor to debunk. Only anecdotal stories

[blazing tusk]

Lol, way false

That depends on your freighter modules and random traits along the upgrades

[balmy badge]

so the 500 to 500 comparison net 0 accuracy?

[blazing tusk]

What is that?

And the several others who did tests and checks net no accurate data?

[blazing tusk]

Where is any of this?

[wicked ibex]

dms

[desert kite]

What’s a quick way to make units?
I’ve been farming chlorine but it’s taking a while and idk if it’s the most efficient method

[balmy badge]

500 natural spawned vs 500 ranked up usually nets rankeds w lower fuel use statistically

[blazing tusk]

Leveled up support frigates can still require fuel if you get bad RNG upgrades

[wet sigil]

Scrapping interceptor is my go to choice

[desert kite]

Are they hard to find?

[wet sigil]

Not after you find a harmonic camp, it's infinitely reusable on that planet

[balmy badge]

Its still statistically better

[blazing tusk]

This is still unclear what you mean

[rapid cedar]

how come that there are such big differences?

[errant moth]

if you want to properly compare stats then strip them of mods until they have the same stuff equipped, because equipped mods will change those values
(but also, those values pretty much dont matter for the most part, and for most people)

[balmy badge]

How? If you compare 500 natural spawned S class to 500 C class leveled to S? I was fairly clear

[wet sigil]

My personal opinion: frigate min-maxing is pointless once ith have all s rank techs on your s rank freighter, because it's trivially easy to hit 150 across all 4 stats on every expedition using nothing but support frigates, in fact in most cases only 3 support frigates are needed, 4 if you have badly rolled ones, 5th is borderline unnecessary

[balmy badge]

Pretty true, but I run permadeath 98%

[errant moth]

the only time i care about frigate optimisation is when there's those stupid bugged frigates that could happen

[balmy badge]

So I do prefer to minmax

[blazing tusk]

Because you acted like you were referencing a reliable study or something. It's just anecdotal

My break is over, so I gotta run. But there is no evidence I've ever found or experienced that starting frigate class matters, other than having better control of only positive traits. Just do the math for the base stats and take it if it's good

[balmy badge]

The statistics dont matter if all you want is a full fleet in non permadeath ofc

[muted lion]

Worth to get a outpost?

[wet sigil]

I have outpost in many places, mainly to get resources for stairs device, it's up to you

[wanton night]

Hello, what modules i get from Destroying the Dreadnought ship please? like the 6 expeditions types and the hyperdrive so once i get them no point to Destroying the Dreadnought anymore?

[quasi blaze]

im trying to play with my brother and it keeps saying version mismatch, im on steam and he's playing on xbox pc app

[wet sigil]

Once you get all 6 types of expedition and 3 warp drives, not much point, but you may still want to destroy other dreadnoughts if you want a better rolled warp drive or expedition time discount mods

[wet sigil]

The game was just updated on PC, hasn't gone live on Xbox yet

[balmy badge]

That actually confirms something from earlier

[quasi blaze]

ahh that sucks

[fathom flume]

so when im getting corvette parts from a salvage planet do those continually respawn?

[wanton night]

all im getting now is the same all expeditions give 15% to their equivalent type and the hyper drive all i got give the same amount of ly which is 247?

[wet sigil]

All expedition stats don't change, they are all 15%, but the expedition time has a range of between 15 to 20% and warp drive range between 200 and 250. the dreadnought in one star will drop the exact same stat for those last 2, so you would need to kill a different star if you want to try for a better one, though your 247 ly warp drive is close to perfect

[wet sigil]

Not immediately, but there should be enough of them to go around that you wouldn't really run out of them

[wanton night]

okay thats great, thanks a lot

[lyric burrow]

If an MT can be found both B and A-Class that means it could also potentially spawn as a natural S yes? Is there any way to confirm which one‘s actually the native class out of the two?

Cuz if it was B, well then it can‘t spawn as S right?

[potent frost]

i cant anymore the mission is not starting i found 3 seninely ships i scanned 3 times:( HOW DOES THE MISSION START 😭

[lyric burrow]

Hmmm surely I should find a C-Class and if i don‘t i think it‘s safe to assume the A-Class is the native version; meaning there‘s an S-Class somewhere out there

[potent frost]

anybody knows how to start the quest Autophage Questline i followed the only tutorial but it isnt working? anybody knows how to get it to start?

[wet sigil]

That is true if and only if you are trying different locations for that tool, and that you are not in a level 1 economy star system

[urban crypt]

youve done !faq-echoes in #nms-commands ?

[lyric burrow]

It‘s a T2 system and I‘ve visited like 10-20 minor settlements so far, the MT has always been either B or A-Class

[potent frost]

yes and i did all that i lifed the seal from 3 camps and nothing happend

[wet sigil]

T2 system only has 1% chance for S rank under normal circumstances, I would strongly consider just using nanites to upgrade an a rank into s rank

[wet sigil]

Can you screenshot your quest log?

[lyric burrow]

It‘s an alien one tho…the bonus damage is quite nerfed by upgrading in comparison to natural no?

Not that it really matters for gameplay purposes, but still.

[potent frost]

the quest hasnt started yet all ive been doin is following only instructions

[hollow wharf]

Hey I’m trying to get the expedition 20 corvette parts is there anyway to get them by myself or does somebody have to give them to me now?

[errant moth]

how do the mt hunters get so many settlement charts? (if it's not just duping)

[wet sigil]

I have never compared it, the stats were never far enough apart that I would spend much time on rolling for perfect weapon, besides the SC layout has bigger say anyway, but that's just me

[wet sigil]

If you don't mind, screenshot it anywa6

[wet sigil]

There might be a scanner for one of the exocrafts, which are freely reusable

[wet sigil]

If you are on PC you can use mods tomplat past expeditions offline

[errant moth]

exocrafts cant scan for settlements specifically, unfortunately. none of the 3 'pools' has it

[hollow wharf]

Will that get me banned or anything like that?

[wet sigil]

Creative mode perhaps? I don't know if the charts are free in that mode

[errant moth]

actually do colossus scan different pois from non-minotaur non-nautilon exocraft now that they can also scan for waste heaps... i kinda forgot trash collecting update happened

so there'd be 4 pools now

im just gonna assume it's duped then tbh, cuz the best way i can come up with for nav data is to barrel fab in the correct spots then repeatedly save reload collecting them

[tropic ginkgo]

nothing you do in this game is bannable as long as it doesn't actively grief, harm or otherwise inconvenience other players

if it was bannable, you wouldn't have it recommended by a community server mod

[hollow wharf]

Okay thank y’all!

[outer trellis]

Hi! How does the Corvette stacking modules exactly work? Ive read you can only put at máximum 3 on the same type for stats bonus, but does this apply to every type? (Landing, thruster...)

[outer trellis]

Also, when we say type It is referring to the category as like habitacle, thruster etc, or It means a speciric and concrete piece?

[fast hearth]

If I edit my corvette when it has stuff in it where do they go?

[glad meteor]

Has anyone noticed if any types of planet have a tencency for better class of pets? or if it is just random.
And the agressive animals, do they have any traits making them more useful to collect?

[urban crypt]

equipping corvette items implicitly adds an equipped upgrade mod to the tech inventory. so you can directly see what adds what. Normally adding more than 3 tech upgrade modules disables all of them, in the case of corvettes it intelligently stops at 3

[sonic spade]

hiya i'm new ish to the game on ps5, what's the best way to get valuable items or best way to start out, ive played a bit i have 50m

[urban crypt]

i am not at all sure what happens to a ... c class corvette / a corvette with a small tech inventory if more items are added than slots exist.

[outer trellis]

Yes, but for example, there are several types of thrusters (rear, light, principal...) do they count as the same piece?

Or even if its the same, do they have yo be the same to count?

[true stone]

if i seize a freighter will that replace my fleet with that freighter's fleet or will that fleet get added to my army

[outer trellis]

What i mean is: okey, i cant have more than 3 double dinamo thrusters for his stats to add, but 1- can i have 3 double dinamo thrusters AND then add idk 3 more eco double thrusters? Being both of them rear thrusters. 2- If not, can i add 3 rear thrusters and then 3 main thrusters?

[outer trellis]

Or does ANY thruster counts toward the 3 maximum

[errant moth]

your frigate fleet always stays with you, you can choose to hire the frigates (will cost units like any other) near the freighter you claim if you wish to, but they wont be automatically added to your fleet

[glad meteor]

one easy way for someone with about 50m, is to visit outlaw space stations buy all the contraband and then sell it at a regular space station. If you know several outlaw stations you can make quite a bit of cash quite quickly. You need some money to get started 50m is plenty. After that you could look into making some of the more expensive components to sell. Though setting up the minerals/plants/gasses you need to do it can take time. But once you have this sorted, you will have more credits than you can spend very quickly

[alpine knoll]

i’m currently doing the purge main mission. Should I complete the atlas path missions first or no need?

[errant moth]

ANY thruster counts towards the 3 max
but each of the 4 reactors counts as separate modules, cuz they all do different things from each other
etc. etc.

[alpine knoll]

also how do i reach the center of the galaxy?

[outer trellis]

Oh, so it depends basically on the piece

[errant moth]

if you're referring to 'the purge' part of the artemis path (nvm i missed this lol), warp 16 times in any direction you'd like. no need to/don't physically go to the centre of the galaxy

[wet sigil]

No need

[alpine knoll]

okay thanks guys

[wet sigil]

For the purge, warping 16 times is enough, you don't even need to be in any general direction, but make sure after every warp, you wait until the Glyph learned notification to pop up before warping again

[alpine knoll]

okay thank you

[outer trellis]

I Guess all landing gear its the same, but for habitacles both the cabin and the main habitacle.space are different

[alpine knoll]

also what do the galaxies that require indium drives and the other drives have? Whats so special about them?

[gusty vapor]

If I finish a base, and someone else puts down a base computer on or nearby my own, do I forfeit the base?

[flint girder]

They simply can't

[outer trellis]

Well i can inly install two reactors, not three, for example

[flint girder]

No you could have 4 ceto reactors installed

But it will only show 3 in the technology

[outer trellis]

So it dependa on the specific piece?

[errant moth]

you can definitely install 3 or more reactors, just that 3 is the max in the technology

[outer trellis]

I mean for stats to count

[errant moth]

so like, if you installed 4 zenith and 4 ceto reactors, your module list would include 3 zenith and 3 ceto reactors

[flint girder]

Yeah only the first three will count towards stats

Anything after that is for appearance

[outer trellis]

I have only 2 meduse reactors and in the tooltip says if i install.more stats do not.count

[errant moth]

because medusa reactors conflicts with the cockpit for stats 😄 and are better than the cockpit, too

[gusty vapor]

Even if I change the perms?

[errant moth]

so uninstall the cockpit, put the 3 medusa reactors, put the cockpit back

[fallen plank]

What does this want me to do? 🫠

[outer trellis]

Lol

Only happens with that piece?

[flint girder]

Unsure

[errant moth]

i THINK it's the only weird case

cant remember otherwise

[flint girder]

Those are the names of glyphs

You want to input those glyphs in that order at a portal.

[fallen plank]

I see. How do I find a portal?

[flint girder]

Find a monolith

[wet sigil]

Nothing that sets them apart, the special drive galaxies require those drives I believe due to bugs

[fallen plank]

Thanks

[outer trellis]

Okey, thx! Just to summarize and i stop asking. All reactors are independent, any thruster (even if they if they are rear, main...) go together, all weapons are independent. Os this right?

[errant moth]

yea, and if it's not right, you'd probably find out ingame anyway

[wet sigil]

That sounds about right

[wanton night]

I cant find the planet it want to take the photo at, what should i do please?

[urban crypt]

visit more systems? which planet does it want?

[wanton night]

it is not showing at all

any planet with faecium, mordite (replaced with sulphurine, because of a bug) or paraf but no plant resource on the list

ok will try to look for it, thanks a lot

[alpine knoll]

i just found a new ship, if i press swap ship will all my inventory items transfer over?

[flint girder]

No

[alpine knoll]

[flint girder]

You should be able to add to collection

[alpine knoll]

i just found an s class sentinel ship and an s class exotic i don’t wanna transfer items over and over

[flint girder]

Or just normally claim it

[swift sand]

at the top of the screen, if you notice, you can swap from tech to cargo - if the new ship has enough spaces to hold it all, you can easily 1 click transfer items over to new ship - but you cant do that with installed tech

[alpine knoll]

do you have a photo? I can’t find it

[swift sand]

post a full screen screenshot of the exchange screen

[supple goblet]

Hi, abt the "3hours and 5warps" rule to spawn a rescue mission, do the warp count after u hit the 3 hrs mark or it count before that. Ty

[alpine knoll]

i already claimed the ship to my collection is there another way I can transfer items from ship to ship? without having to do it manually

[swift sand]

no

[alpine knoll]

[swift sand]

any warps you do after the last battle count - but there's no need to worry about the "3h and 5 ship warps requirement". so how? until the next rescue battle triggers, always exit ship in station before warping out. this gives you a safety net. next battle triggers, not the freighter you want, or in the system you want, reload restore point. wait a minute, warp out again: any inhabited system you warp to, will forcefully trigger the battle again. you can then use that to freighter hunt if you want.

[sonic spade]

sorry how do i find outlaw space stations and whats a good starting ish item to make that sells for a bit

[supple goblet]

I mean i tend to warping and discover planets while waiting the 3hrs mark. then when it hit 3hrs mark, i will warp 4 times, then create a savepoint then warp the 5th time for rescur

[glad meteor]

You generally stumble across them, I think they have a greater tendency to be in black hole systems but they can be anywhere. You will know them straight away when you find the. Contraband items you buy from the console are a different colour text so you will know. Best to transport them by teleporter to the legitimate systems as you can get attacked in space by the authorities if you carry them in your ship ( unless you like a good fight).

[swift sand]

there's no need to do that, no

[supple goblet]

Since i dont want to stay in the same system 3hrs XD

[swift sand]

until the next rescue battle triggers, always exit ship in station before warping out. this gives you a safety net. next battle triggers, not the freighter you want, or in the system you want, reload restore point. wait a minute, warp out again: any inhabited system you warp to, will forcefully trigger the battle again. you can then use that to freighter hunt if you want.
but that's exactly why i said ^

[flint girder]

Quick shortcut to finding outlaw systems. Use conflict scanner. Check any red systems.

[timid compass]

unstable gel i believe? as far as crafting goes. it only requires echinocactus.
but you could find resource depots and destroy them for a handful of some rare items that you could sell. alternatively farming for gold from asteroids is a good option as it sells well.

[swift sand]

buried mineral formation, buried caches, salvaged data are my gotos for early on units

[timid compass]

yes that too

[supple goblet]

If after that, i decide to no rerun. I will have to warp 5 more times to meet the rescue mission again right?

[flint girder]

My method was just obtain three good scanner modules

[errant moth]

You can also use the economy scanner to find outlaw systems (they'll be clearly labelled outlaw), but not as filterable as conflict scanner

[swift sand]

no, after you complete a rescue battle both timer and warp counter reset back to 0 - that's why we say that it's "3h of unpaused gameplay and 5ship warps since the last battle"

[supple goblet]

Oh..., my reading issue, sorry, and ty for being patience 🙂

Do anyone have color chart when we use conflict and eco scanner?

[swift sand]

• using eco scanner filter in galaxy map is going to color systems by eco type

• using conf scanner filter in galaxy map is going to color systems by conflict tier

• eco type colors basically match the colors in this image, but only really worth knowing if you're doing trade routes for cash

• conflict tier colors are simple: green t1, yellow t2, red t3 and outlaw

[supple goblet]

Ty so much, have a nice day bro

[gleaming spear]

am i cooked? I started a "survival" character and my planet is hecka irradiated (taking a lot of radiation damage) and i made it to my ship but there's really no sodium around my ship ! EDIT: I see my thing is slowly recharging..

[swift sand]

that's survival for ya really. well, look for caves and hazard plants inside; eat wild plants like heptaploid wheat to restore hazard protection; remain close to your ship to use it as shelter (hop in it and it will recharge your hazard prot), use buildings or caves as shelter

@gleaming spear the hardest part is getting out of that "hole" - once you've got some hazard protection upgrades for each of the hazrds, for jetpack/lifesupport etc - it'll be a lot easier, no planet is offlimits basically

[supple goblet]

Remind me my first day, after i git my terra thing, i keep digging holes XD

[swift sand]

yeah, once you get your terrain manip, can def use it to drill and get to shelter

[alpine knoll]

how do i unlock more customization options like the poncho and robot heads?

[alpine knoll]

i think it’s called the autophage race?

[swift sand]

see <#nms-questions message>. "poncho" and robot heads are autophage customization options yes. would need to complete the needed secondary quest to unlock them, then farm the void motes to unlock the stuff you want

[tulip dust]

-# to view info below, enable embeds

<:info:850810445577453658> How to unlock Autophage race, Staff and Atlantid multitool types

Complete secondary quest They Who Returned

Requirements

a) New Beginnings primary mission on Log tab (type !faq-artemispath in #nms-commands for more info)
b) Lift the seal at a harmonic camp (type !faq-interceptor in #nms-commands, follow "Harmonic Camp" for more info)

Once both of the above requirements are met, simply warp out of your current system and wait in space for a quest transmission that should arrive shortly after.

Note that quest willl not trigger on the next warp if you happen to warp into a freighter rescue battle event. Type !faq-echoes in #nms-commands channel for more info.

Once quest is complete, to unlock Autophage race in Appearance Modifier, player needs to acquire 1 autophage helmet customization (hoods wont work).

how do i get a hazmat gauntlet?

will need to unlock it from space anomaly, exosuit research npc

oh

thanks

and is it a bug or its like that for reason,but my corvette storage isnt linked with me meaning that when i craft i have to take it out of the storage to craft that thing

[wheat cove]

That's normal for the corvette and planet bases, but when you're in your freighter's base area, you don't need to do that. There may be a technical reason for the difference, but it is frustrating to constantly go back and forth.
