nms-questions

[gaunt radish]

okay im a bit confused tho, how do i find these

like the systems i find in google are probably thousands of thousands light years away from me

i havent unlocked that thing to tp to them using cords

[wet sigil]

Portals

That's the only way to get to those, unfortunately

[knotty frigate]

how do I fix frigates?

[wet sigil]

If you haven't unlocked portals, if you need the cargo augments, do the missions thing

[wet sigil]

In your frieghter there is a terminal you can examine your fleet, which you can examine frigates, choose the frigate you want to repair, press teleport to frigate, then proceed to each marked point to repair them

[summer lantern]

First time taking this type of mission, am i missing something? I see no freighter cargo pods anywhere

[indigo lion]

so im trying to setup my first gas collector and im wondering how the supply depot thing works. it says it allows travel over "long distances" but doesnt it still have to be within the base limits?

[summer lantern]

ah, in this freighter its the spheres

[simple epoch]

Do I have to do this if I want to advance the Artemis quest? I'm happy with my freighter right now.

[summer lantern]

you dont have a planetary base?

[simple epoch]

I do but it's not very expansive. I just threw down the portal there basically

Should I make one?

[summer lantern]

yeah, It's a good idea to have at least one

eventually you can make more bases dedicated to extracting specific resources too, but main one is also a good idea

[simple epoch]

Ok, is there anywhere specific I should make one? I think I can get to green star systems

[summer lantern]

I recommend you seek a spot near an electromagnetic hotspot, ideally class A or S, for free power

[simple epoch]

Should I make one on an extreme storm planet for crystals?

[summer lantern]

if you can place it near a trade outpost, it can be particularly useful to sell stuff at a better price (and with that said, probably want it to be in a tier 3 economy system)

[summer lantern]

Not a bad idea, if those dont bother you much

[wet sigil]

Has to be in base limits, otherwise you won't be able to place the storage silos.

Then text is just referencing that you can pipe it a long distance within the limit, it's not too hard to pipe from one end of the circle to the other by daisy chaining

A lot of people do that to get 2 or 3 hotspots resources to move the silo they interact with to loot them closer to the teleporter

[fiery badger]

How you get that i couldnt find it

[simple epoch]

Stellar corruption?

[bitter crypt]

exotic type

[marsh zealot]

exotic planet with oversized stuff and weird sky colors

[winter wolf]

green type planet #nms-commands message

[spring roost]

I'm confused I was buying a ship off an npc and I noticed my ship had all my materials in it. WIth this said I quick moved everything in that ships invetory so I could get a discount on the npc's ship where did that stuff go I can't find it?

[marsh zealot]

anything in the ship is lost on an NPC trade

[surreal maple]

There’s like 400 eggs in an egg thing in anomaly and they won’t hatch and I can’t destroy them all it’s gonna take way to long. Can anyone fix it?

[spring roost]

But I quick moved it prior to that

I pressed quick move on all the stuff

[marsh zealot]

should be on you then

[indigo lion]

they are in each category in the base building section of freighter upgrades. there is both one for tech and industrial

[marsh zealot]

go to another system and summon the anomaly. might need a different instance of it

[spring roost]

dang well I think I lost it cause I cant find it which sucks causse I had great stuff

for me at least

[marsh zealot]

if you haven't saved the game again...restore the last point

[spring roost]

no I did

thanks for the help tho

how do I get better missions from the bounty master

[marsh zealot]

pirate bounty master? just keep doing them and raise your outlaw level

[spring roost]

alright

whats the fastest one idc about the pay

like smuggled goods?

[marsh zealot]

do them all. i just spammed them until i hit max

[summer lantern]

smuggled good involves going to another system, so that's probably one of the slower ones

[spring roost]

well I want to get expensive smuggled goods, but do you know which one is the fastest mission to complete

[marsh zealot]

killing the pirates was easier for me cause it was pew pew. and the hitting a freighter usually just involved a quick pulse drive

[spring roost]

alright great thanks

about how long would you say till max level?

[marsh zealot]

about the same as normal bounties for the races and guilds.

[spring roost]

sounds good

[marsh zealot]

although with smuggled goods if i remember once you do one and don't move systems...it tends to send you to the same agent over and over again

[spring roost]

hmm

[marsh zealot]

still longer cause of the warping around though

[spring roost]

well I was only asking because I found out that if you take the smuggled goods mission and get the supplies. Right after you can cancel it in the logs menu (not from the bounty or it bugs) yet you still keep the supplies

So, if I max out the bounty level, the goods will be worth crazy amounts

[marsh zealot]

eh, there's better ways to make money honestly

[spring roost]

what actually?

to be fair, I did just start tho so idk

[marsh zealot]

you can setup a Mineral farm on a planet with activated indium, for instance (does require you buy the tech from the Anomaly to make it) but with a few containers and a few miners you can farm thousands of it and sell it in a non-blue star system for a decent chunk of change

[spring roost]

dang and it works afk?

[marsh zealot]

or ... setup a nipnip farm in your own freighter and make herbal crunchies (i do 400 a pop and it sells for 20-30 million for relatively little time sink every day)

[spring roost]

dang

I did just start tho so I dont own any freigher

is that the make your own ship thingy?

[marsh zealot]

planetary mineral farms work as long as you have power to keep the machines going. a bunch of solar panels or an electromagnetic generator

[indigo lion]

can i daisy chain the pipes? or do i need a single pipe to each collector-depot

[marsh zealot]

you connect the feed pipes between all the extractors, 1 pipe to the nearest container, then connect all the containers together

[wet sigil]

That I don't know, I never needed more than one pipe's length

[indigo lion]

didnt say anything about length lol

[simple epoch]

how do I find this?

[marsh zealot]

they meant connecting all the extractors with pipes, then all the containers with pipes.... you only need 1 pipe between the lot to feed everything but it will transmit all farmed minerals into the containers and fill them all over time

[summer lantern]

you need the 'Survey Device' Multitool technology installed

[wet sigil]

Oh I was saying that I never needed daisy chaining since my teleporter is never more than 1 pipe's max length to reach

[summer lantern]

I believe its blueprint can be found in the anomaly?

[marsh zealot]

you actually learn that through the story at some point, but also yes Anomaly

[wet sigil]

Ah yes, that works, but I don't even do that lol, I glitch build my silos to stack them on top of each other so I don't waste my object quota on pipes

[marsh zealot]

no need to glitch build if that's all the particular base does

about the only type of base you need to personally AFK in is the ranching base... cause the animal product collectors don't work unless you're there cause animals are weird like that

[indigo lion]

stacking them removes the need to connect pipes?

[wet sigil]

Stack glitch is much easier to do than to drag pipes between them

[wet sigil]

Yes, but you gonna stack them so their models overlap. Normal stacking (the one that makes them line up like organ pipes) don't, or at least didn't for me when I tried it

This is also why you should build different clusters of extractors a little bit apart so they don't accident overlap and connect to each other

it just got voided???

[stuck berry]

this is a bug that others have been reporting

[gaunt radish]

bruh...

[stuck berry]

maybe it went to your ship's cargo inventory or smth?

checked

everything

every storage

even my tool 💔

it just gone

gimme 3k quicksilver compensation

💔

[summer lantern]

Do hex core serve any purpose other than perhaps some quest?

[indigo lion]

Final Question regarding these hotspots. now that i have my first functioning supply depot do i need to worry about the spot drying up?

[summer lantern]

nah

[wet sigil]

Never

You also don't need to worry about "overloading" the spot either

[indigo lion]

also my cycle finished and only the first extractor went into it. so it looks like you do need 1 pipe per extractor. atleast thats how its making it work for me.

[wet sigil]

You can also connect the pipes between the extractors

[indigo lion]

thats what im saying.

didnt. work.

it only took the one it was directly connected to

[wet sigil]

Check your silo

[indigo lion]

i did. 250. out of 1000.

[wet sigil]

Does the resource income rate equal to the sum of your extratxors6

Extractors*

If they do, you have connected them correctly, if not, you didn't connect the extractors correctly

[indigo lion]

yes but something else just happend... i went to double check that. noticed the extractors now empty. okay maybe they went into the depo. depo empty. no nitrogen anywhere whatsoever....i just got robbed....

and now it says. stored 81,464

but checking shows nothing. bro i feel like im being trolled rn by this game holy hell

[wet sigil]

That's a telltale sign that your silos are not connected to your exteactora

[indigo lion]

BRUHHHH im literally abt to give up on hotspots. they are literally connected.

[wet sigil]

Double check if silos have a faded icon of nitrogen in the content window, or if it's literally a black box

If its a black box, it's not connected

[summer lantern]

is it a long line that needed multiple pipes?

[wet sigil]

Try tearing down the pipes and reconnect them

[summer lantern]

also (and just in case) ensure you're not trying to connect them in free placement

as in snapping enabled

[wet sigil]

Yes, you need to snap them to the piping points

[raw orbit]

is there a difference between finding a SSS pet or hatching pets? is hatching them just for size?

[gaunt radish]

does the like plant things in the corvettes even work

or just decoration

[forest night]

is there a way to distribute power to other bases?

cool, thanks

[gaunt radish]

these things, they re just decoration?

also this, apparently it heals me automatically?

[wet sigil]

They are not, you can plant crops on them

[summer lantern]

you can grow the crop plants there. starbloom, geknip, etc

[gaunt radish]

or just pure decoration

[gaunt radish]

bet ty

[gaunt radish]

what bout these

[wet sigil]

Decorative only

[gaunt radish]

ggs

wish u could get in and heal yourself there

or maybe regen life support

idk

[indigo lion]

i think i finally got it working now after replacing the pipes a thousand times. istg this had gotta be the most buggy thing ive experienced so far lol do the same thing over n over n it just decides when to work.

[wet sigil]

You can build a first aid station for that

[gaunt radish]

inside the corvette?

i dont have it unlocked

oh bet the

then

[wet sigil]

The green circle snap points are critical to the function of the pipes

[gaunt radish]

any way to close rooms inside the corvette without needing to yk

build on the wall

[wet sigil]

I don't believe so, not I have tried, the wall points are an extreme premium on my corvette

[gaunt radish]

wym extreme premium 😭

[indigo lion]

no shi lol its not like i wasnt connecting them. over. n over.. n over... i literally have no clue why. its connected the same way it was failing.

but now its just working.

[wet sigil]

My corvette is always made as small as possible, but doorways between hab units always loses me two wall points, so I have to use morenhab units to compensate

[gaunt radish]

oh i see lol

[wet sigil]

Which is counter to my small as possible corvette

[wet sigil]

That's very odd, personally I have never run into that issue

[gaunt radish]

how many storage thingies do u at least have?

[wet sigil]

So I never willingly waste wall points unless it's to make door ways

[wet sigil]

10

[gaunt radish]

it isnt that small then

u didnt do an abomation of corvette like ive seen in the anomaly

and actually visually pleasing one right

ive seen people dont even try and just place the modules that have a functionality

[wet sigil]

Right, and now you see my issue with corvettes, even having all 10 storages demands a minimum size, which makes corvette too bulky

[gaunt radish]

so actual blocks with guns and rockets

[gaunt radish]

if you make the corvette long it doesnt seem that bulky anymore

[wet sigil]

I consider 3 hab units to be too wide

[gaunt radish]

damn, thats kinda minimum tho

[summer lantern]

meanwhile, I manage with 2-3, yet i added more habs just for the room (6 hab chonky dude)

[wet sigil]

1 is too narrow, and there is a massive issue with 2

[gaunt radish]

1 habit its way too small

[pale valve]

Is it normal to that my first bunch of systems have already been discovered by someone?

[gaunt radish]

2 u must be locked up

3 is minimum

[wet sigil]

Not that abnormal, since everyone starts in the same band of stars

[pale valve]

Ah okay thank you

[summer lantern]

my first base was built on an already discovered system (but undiscovered planets)

[wet sigil]

2 has a very big issue of not being centre-able

[gaunt radish]

yeah thats why if you go for that u must be locked up

[summer lantern]

even vertical stack?

[wet sigil]

I recently started a new save where the system I started that save on has the stars name being and ad for a YT channel lol

[pale valve]

Ha! that's crazy

[gaunt radish]

cant that be reported?

[wet sigil]

I ain't doing vertical corvettes, stairs make the already claustrophobic hab interiors even more cramped

[gaunt radish]

kinda wish u could like

remove completely the walls

from a hab to another hab

to have like one single big hab

[wet sigil]

Yes, but unfortunately that removes the wall points to build on, so it's a very double edged sword

I could prefer all 4 sides of the walls to have wall points, instead of just 2

[gaunt radish]

yeah but

[wet sigil]

That way it makes sense for the wall removal to happen, can build around all 4 walls

[gaunt radish]

im sure a lot of people would use it

when they have above average size corvettes

this new cockpit beam in the middle of the glass troubles me heavily.

[summer lantern]

How bad does settlement debt tend to get before it actually starts recovering?

[wet sigil]

Even as a vertical stack, you cannot place the landing bay and cockpit at the dead center of the corvette, plus a wall would be there. My pipe dream is to have a hab unit that is exactly twice as wide as the hab units we have now, but all 4 walls have build points, plus being able to centre the cockpick and landing bay doors.

[wet sigil]

If you focus your upgrade on the most profitable buildings (i.e. anything that isn't residential buildings), id reckon they'd go not much more than double that before you start recovering, keep going and you will get them out fairly soon after

[vale escarp]

anything here that i can sell?

[summer lantern]

Oh, that made me realize i can start upgrading them now that the admin building and other project building are complete

[gaunt radish]

i kinda wanna start building an actual base, all i have are outposts to just have a quick teleport to the planet, should i use pre built stuff or actually build the stuff myself, my issue is that due to the building system limitations its just kinda off gonna be really blocky

[gaunt radish]

i mean you can sell everything lol

if you mean whats worth selling

depends of u

[frail turret]

Do not worry about the dept... It does not affect your balance... As long as you keep building and upgrading the settlement, it be ameliorated and eventually disappear altogether. Small tip: do not send your settlers on expeditions, you get a few nanites but your pop will not grow as fast and thus the settlement's buildings will not be working in full force...

[summer lantern]

lol, I just sent some dudes to one cause of the reason they wanted to

[frail turret]

If you are not into cooking, sell the nip nip. Also you can sell the convergence cube

[gaunt radish]

why is that

miniature walker way harder than the actual walker

those missiles just did my entire health

and has laser precision

any counterplay?

[frail turret]

Meh... It's ok, don't worry about it... Settlements play a minor role in the game, they are more like a side side quest. Also... If you wish you can place your three air harvesters right outside your main building and harvest some air (nitrogen, sulphurine or radon depending on the planet type). This way, whenever you visit the settlement for upgrades, you will gather some (up to 750) of the local air for your storage and maybe your high end productions

[summer lantern]

blaze javelin with the stun upgrade

[gaunt radish]

hm

[summer lantern]

That paired with a quite upgraded pulse spitter has become my go to combo for sentinnel waves

Javelin stuns from afar, pulse spitter melts

Also, if possible, i recommend fighting the waves from inside a building

Oh? Is this where I would've learned to craft the minotaur, had I not obtained it from the anomaly?

[indigo lion]

do pirate settlement raids do anything? like if i where to ignore/fail would i lose buildings?

[solid oasis]

I think that's the Trace of Metal questline. I don't remember if you learn to craft a minotaur during that quest but it does teach you to craft some extra minotaur parts you can't learn elsewhere.

[solid oasis]

Nope.

[frail turret]

You can also refine the larvae into nanites, give some pirate transponders to the guild representative at a space station to raise your status, and refine your jn (at the top right corner) to runaway mould, then to nanites

[summer lantern]

Ah, from before they recomed that requirement, i pressume? Already got access to autophages and purple systems

[solid oasis]

Trace of Metal is unrelated to the core progress quests...you can do it before or after, doesn't really matter when you do it.

[summer lantern]

i see, thanks

[indigo lion]

i just did it for the drone buddy lol

[fiery badger]

If i trade in my ships will it move the stuff in my cargo to the new ship?

[bitter crypt]

not automatically, no

you have to take all the stuff you want out of it

[summer lantern]

i think it specifically states that it wont

[fiery badger]

What about freighters?

[bitter crypt]

same thing there

[fiery badger]

Dang alright

[bitter crypt]

though I think it lets you transfer stuff between inventories in the prompt when buying the new one

[solid oasis]

Also no but it will ask if you want your freighter base transfered. But not the inventory and tech.

[harsh bough]

I’m doing the purge I feel like the choice here is important what do I do?

[bitter crypt]

It's fully up to you

Neither make a huge difference

[harsh bough]

Do I have to worry about anything being destroyed?

[bitter crypt]

not from this decision, no

[harsh bough]

All the planets I’ve been to they will be there still right?

[bitter crypt]

they always will be

[fiery badger]

Do different shapes of freighters matter i see a very tall one and a very flat one is there a difference or should i only look at the class?

[bitter crypt]

appearance makes no difference

[solid oasis]

If you refuse you stay in Euclid, if you reset you will be offered a choice of four galaxy types red=hostile, blue=dead, cyan=normal, and green=lush.

[bitter crypt]

and you can go back to euclid at any time from those other galaxies, too

[harsh bough]

Just use the portal on my freighter?

To go back and forth?

[solid oasis]

Or any teleporter, yeah.

[harsh bough]

Cool so I have nothing to worry about?

[indigo lion]

Galaxy types? theres not only system but galaxy types? how does that work? i thought each galaxy you progress was basically NG+

[solid oasis]

If you reset, when you go to the new galaxy all your tech in ship, MT, and exosuit will be broken and will need to be repaired.

[harsh bough]

Yikes my mats are gonna hurt lmao

[solid oasis]

Yes. There are 4 galaxy types. Out of the 255 galaxies in the game 70% are normal and then dead, hostile, and lush are 10% each. Lush = far more lush planets in yellow systems, dead = a lot more dead worlds in yellow systems, hostile = a lot more extreme weather and hostile sentinels and higher conflict ratings so more pirate attacks and whatnot.

[solid oasis]

You can uninstall all your tech before committing to your choice...any packaged up tech will not be damaged.

[indigo lion]

i assume most people who make it that far choose normal or lush right?

[harsh bough]

Oh well I’m talking to the atlas rn from this picture

[solid oasis]

Lush seems to be the most popular one as it means lots more lush and paradise worlds. Not many want to go to hostile or dead galaxies.

[indigo lion]

ngl i might go red lol i love the space combat and want more

[solid oasis]

If you want to go to a lush galaxy the easy way you can refuse the Atlas, stay in Euclid, then go to the Anomaly and of the 5 featured bases one is in Eissentam(galaxy 10, lush) and one is in galaxy 19(also lush). If you do it that way then no tech damage. If you want normal galaxy you can just stay in Euclid, it's normal. But if you want dead or hostile then you'll have to rough it through the damage from the quest choice.

[vale escarp]

this is a no brainer right?

[harsh bough]

Tbh imma just reset get my base off that toxic air planet finally

[indigo lion]

question ive always wondered. what do the little head icon next to systems mean in discovery?

[summer lantern]

someone else's discoveries, i believe

[knotty frigate]

is this a good trade?

do my built things transfer over?

[wet sigil]

Your base, frigates and starship archive gets moved. Installed techs and contents of your cargo are not

[wet sigil]

I would do that, you are choking on MT slots as is, getting basically double that is far more valuable for you right now

[indigo lion]

Well the base is optional. whenever i get new freighters i always take a tour to see if i like the base design more

[vale escarp]

thats what i thought, i exchnaged it without removing the mods at first but luckily i had a previous save lol

[wet sigil]

Yeah take the techs off first before trading

[solid oasis]

More like a side trade but the new freighter comes with more tech per-installed.

[indigo lion]

Whats better to supercharge? expedition speed or defences?

[knotty frigate]

Yeah I haven't really gotten any freighter uogrades tbh

[wet sigil]

If you cannot do expeditions under 24 hours without SCing the expedition speed, expedition speed, otherwise defence

The longest ones can spill over to 24 hours

But iirc with even one expedition speed it should bring it down to below 24hours

[indigo lion]

i havent seen one over 13 yet

[wet sigil]

Then defencrs

[indigo lion]

i got all these from the same freighter.

i had never done a derelict at the time. i was just pirate killing and destroying freighters and i checked to see all these modules from the same freighter is that normal?

[solid oasis]

For my freighter I choose speed...but that's also in part because I have insane maxed out S class frigates...like full on level 10 frigates with 55+ expeditions under their belt. And with all the other non supercharged frigate tech installed in my freighter I generally hit full 150 stats across the board with pretty much any 3 of my frigates.

[wet sigil]

Freighter always drop s rank

Derelict freighters do not

[solid oasis]

But supercharging speed greatly reduces expedition length...like even 28+ hour expeditions will finish in like 4 to 6 hours at most.

[wet sigil]

Same, though it's not that useful

Due to the 5 daily missions limit, I'd say 12 hours is good enough for all but the very fringest cases

[solid oasis]

Uhm, depends...it is very useful when you want to do all 5 expeditions in a day with the same few frigates...like I was when I was leveling up my frigates. And they keep gaining stats until they completed 55 expeditions even if they're S class.

[indigo lion]

is it just super rare that freighters drop their modules? cause this was the one and only time killing a freighter gave me freighter tech

[solid oasis]

I think only pirate dreadnaughts drop S modules reliably and only if they didn't surrender first I think. If you want o destroy them then don't take out their engines so they don't try to surrender.

[wet sigil]

I was under the assumption that destroying any freighters drop s rank techs regardless, but I never raided civilian freighters.

I always just repeatedly kill the dreadnought in systems that's guaranteed to spawn the fight

[indigo lion]

well i got these when i was killing in a pirate system for money. just normal contraband freighters not a pirate one.

[wet sigil]

Fair

[indigo lion]

i was just astonished all 6 modules where from the same ship the, SV Saras III.

[wet sigil]

A fun fact, for the exact same freighter, the expedition timer and hyper drive techs will have the exact same stats, they only vary when you kill different freighteta

(I think it's the expedition timer, I can't remember if it was that or defence that has a stat range)

All other upgrades have the exact same stat regardless of freighter

[knotty frigate]

how the hell

[indigo lion]

Right.

uhhhh am i supposed to have both of these after the maturation? i feel like the fragile one was supposed to vanish..

[scenic quail]

does planets moves or they keep in the same place

[balmy badge]

I had the same happen, pretty sure it's not supposed to though

[bitter crypt]

they stay in the same place

the skybox rotates

[scenic quail]

thats good

[balmy badge]

Fastest way to get living ship mods btw? Like is there anything faster than ||break 2 eggs in an empty system?|| been taking like 15 mins per 1

I have 1 purple mod & 3 green

[indigo lion]

bruh why are traders attavking me for saving their stupid ship.

[balmy badge]

You hit one of them

Or their freighter

[indigo lion]

i saved a freighter and as payment the moment i killed the last pirate it turned on me at the same time as hailing me. this is the 5th time something like this has happend in the last few days. i think its a bug. and no i didnt shoot anything cause i make sure i dont fire if there is ANYTHING near my target.

[wet sigil]

If you had stored a body part in a starship cargo, they don't get removed properly, you now have a souvenir from that quest

[indigo lion]

full hp full shields and every fighter was untouched

[balmy badge]

Maybe the faction hates you? Idk

[indigo lion]

its my highest fac XD

[balmy badge]

They are yandere for you Ig

"if I cant have you nobody can" or something

[indigo lion]

and now i cant escape cause i refuse to fire on my own people. and its a inhabited zone so theres no pausing lol ive been getting shot up this whole time just hoping they screw off. ive flown to the furthest planet and am sitting here in the surface and they just wont stop. theyre more persistent then sentinels or pirates

[balmy badge]

Oof

[indigo lion]

cant pulse away either tried that and like 10 seconds later they literally pulsed in behind me. like what.

[indigo lion]

i may or may not have had the egg and brain in my freighter lol

[balmy badge]

Pulse then warp to another system?

Idk

[wet sigil]

Just bee line towards space station

[solid oasis]

A stray shot probably hit something. It can be annoying when they turn on you like that.

[wet sigil]

Yeah agreed

You may not even realised you actually hit them, saving freighters from outlaw ships is harder than from dreads xd

[indigo lion]

a stray shot? with phase beams? 😭 literally how.

[gaunt radish]

so im trying to make the upgrade which lets me summon any land vehicle without needing to build their station on the planet

how do i get crystallised helium and the activated quartzite?

[summer lantern]

Quarzite and activated from pruple star systems. There's a whole quest to unlock those. Likewise, Crystalize helium can only be found on gas giant planets, also purple star exclusive

[indigo lion]

wouldnt have cared if it wasnt the faction im trying to protect lol and if they were vykeen i woulds destroyed it no hesitiation

[gaunt radish]

well damn.

[solid oasis]

I typically find NPC ships fairly often fly into my line of fire. HG seem to have fixed it a little over the past couple of years as it doesn't happen nearly as often as it used to, but it still happens sometimes.

[summer lantern]

oh that was bigger than expected, sorry

[gaunt radish]

oh god..

can someone give me the upgrade btw?

or i gotta craft it

[summer lantern]

i dont think the game lets you trade stuff the other hanst unlocked

[proper lodge]

craft

you can't give tech to other players

[gaunt radish]

can someone give me the materials then?

[proper lodge]

anyways you would need to unlock purple systems either way bc atlantid drive doesn't show purple systems, it just allows you to warp there

[proper lodge]

yeah

[gaunt radish]

👀

I mean i will get to do that eventually

i just reallyyyy need that upgrade

anyways ty

[summer lantern]

in the meantime, you can unlock one of the freighter room that allows the same thing, with the caveat the freighter has to be in the system

[gaunt radish]

i dont have a freighter either

i kinda feel wayyyy too lazy to get one

its just i have so many things to do

[summer lantern]

if you save a freighter from pirates, the first one is free

though, actually unlocking that specific room requires seeking frigate modules, which arent easy to come by

[proper lodge]

wdym room

there isn't any room that allows you to warp there

[summer lantern]

A room to spawn exocraft from anywhere in the system

[indigo lion]

whereever the ship goes. the exocraft goes.

[proper lodge]

oh you mean exocraft

[summer lantern]

yeah, i guess what i was referring to was a bit ambiguous there

[proper lodge]

we were just talking abt purple systems and when you said "allows the same thing" i got confused

[proper lodge]

you don 't need salvage frigate modules for that specific room

Go to number 20 and there unlock room for salvaged data in page with exocraft spawners

[summer lantern]

thought only the placeable one was there, not the room

[proper lodge]

there room too

i think you need freighter to see it there

[vale escarp]

does the walker sometimes bug out? its nowhere to be found

[proper lodge]

yeah it's underground

don't try to dig down

it's under not digable ground

[summer lantern]

Dig a big hole to bedrock and it might pop back up

only works sometimes

as in dig completelly around the area above where it'd be

[proper lodge]

old screenshot from wiki but whatever

it now just has room icon

[summer lantern]

Ah, interesting

prolly missed it then

[balmy badge]

Fr though is there a better way?

[proper lodge]

no as i know

[balmy badge]

seems it'll be 40 hours of repeat

[edgy mortar]

where can I find crash logs of NMS?

[proper lodge]

windows or console or other os?

if you on windows you can just check "windows event viewer" idk about consoles

[balmy badge]

Console always says 1 of 2 things

"uh oh, looks like you overheated" or "there was a problem" (xbox anyways

[proper lodge]

on ps4 Settings > System > System Software > Error History
on ps5 Settings > System > Error History

well at least thats what other ppl said

[balmy badge]

Xbox refuses to give much help

[tropic ginkgo]

#nms-questions message

[wet sigil]

You can do it slowly overtime using living frigates on frigate expeditions, if your voyage is successful enough you can get like half a stack to a full stack of eggs in a week without doing much of actively hunting for the thing

[edgy mortar]

thank you!

[wet sigil]

Turning a living ship into a main ship is a fairly time consuming activity, especially if you want cargo space

[edgy mortar]

Linux. I will probably find it in the same location it would be on Windows though.

[summer lantern]

Uhhh, I already translated it but didnt complete it. Will it be fine, or will it softlock the expedition?

[balmy badge]

I'm more after mods than space rn

[knotty frigate]

I only got like one freighter mod from a derelict ship

Am I supposed to salvage everything I see?

[summer lantern]

bruh. So I choose one of the options, it doesnt complete. I choose 'neither' and NOW it accepts my answer

[wet sigil]

Did that freighter mod come from the engineering terminal at the end?

Or did you get it on some other parts of the ship?

[balmy badge]

God, I am lagging bad

[balmy badge]

Also my 4 been getting me nothing

They slacking

Several minutes of lag

[summer lantern]

ok, no. It just stopped asking me, but quest wont complete. Guess I'll see when the expedition finishes

[wet sigil]

It's fairly random, though I reliably get like 3 a day, 5 or 6 on a good day

[edgy mortar]

Found it, thank you very much!

[wet sigil]

If they left the system, they should be on their way, if not, they would still be stuck at the place

[knotty frigate]

Terminal at the end

[wet sigil]

Personal recommendation: always choose cargo bulkhead for derelict freighter engineering terminal, the freighter tech is the worst choice out of tgem

For freighter tech, you are much better off farming dreadnoughts for them, they always drop one, and always S rank, derelict freighters are not guaranteed to drop S

[knotty frigate]

You mean to tell me I could have been destroying the last few pirate freighters I made surrender for them?

[wet sigil]

If you can find a system with guaranteed dreadnought fight, then you just repeatedly kill that dreadnought to get as many s ranks as you want

[wet sigil]

Yes

Never let dreadnoughts surrender if you want their tech

If you kill them without them surrendering, they always drop a s rank, but there is a little of a time delay after they explode so be mindful of that, I think it's like 8 or so seconds?

[knotty frigate]

Oh so I'm not supposed to take out just the engine and cannons?

[wet sigil]

Correct, you have to destroy all the shield generators and destroy their hull, it's faster if you destroy the fuses that come out of the shield generators afterwards

Don't bother with guns when destroying them, and don't touch the engines

[knotty frigate]

They chew through the attacking freighters so fast though

But I guess once I get used to doing it that way it won't take much time at all

[wet sigil]

The freighters can survive 3 torpedo volleys iirc

[tropic ginkgo]

with an almost maxed interceptor you should be able to destroy it just about fast enough before it warps away, I recently managed to destroy a few with like 5-2s left until warp

[wet sigil]

They only die on the fourth

I usually have like 20 seconds left on my timer on my interceptor

[young leaf]

can someone help me it do that too on the terrain

[wet sigil]

But if your ships weapon isn't strong enough, try destroying fuses, they will give you more time, if not, I'd recommend looking into upgrading the weapons

[subtle perch]

Do what exactly?

[young leaf]

despawn the solar and all the other things i put

[subtle perch]

Did you reach the max building limit or max base part limit?

[young leaf]

i dont think its there is just that nothing else i trie put a lot on another base on the same planet but this time on the ground i go and come back all gone

but when i do that on another nothing happen

can we build on dissonance planet ?

[subtle perch]

I saw something about base build near spawn point will disappear

[young leaf]

wdym spawn point ?

[young leaf]

near harmonic ?

[subtle perch]

Wait that’s 2019

[subtle perch]

Dumb question, did you save?

[young leaf]

uhh idl i guess ill just build somewhere else

yes

i did with the ship and with the saving thing

it too despawned and i cant put another one

[gaunt radish]

any way i can ensure a settlement map spawns in a specific planet?

[subtle perch]

I think you can buy the settlement map from space station

[gaunt radish]

ik but the system has

6 total celestial bodies

so

i want it to be in a specific one

idk if perhaps being close to it ensures it

[subtle perch]

So technically most planet should have settlement, try using the map on the planet you want

[tropic ginkgo]

yours is higher class with X upgrades I assume? maybe I just need more mechanical practice

[rigid inlet]

Anyone help a guy out with a super conductor?

[subtle perch]

I think you’ll have better luck asking in the anomaly

[rigid inlet]

I was being super lazy about crafting it after noticing how much stuff you need to craft leading up to it hahaha

[proper lodge]

No purple systems(except autophage), no uninhabited systems, no exotic planets(probably)

[gaunt radish]

they cant be in exotic planets?

thats so depressing

[proper lodge]

Idk

I never got them on exotic planets

Maybe just unlucky or they don't spawn there

[subtle perch]

I’ll just buy a ton of maps and keep using it

Navigation data is sold at outlaw system

[wet sigil]

It's x with 2 SC slots on the weapon techs,.maybe that's why?

[indigo lion]

huh i have one on a reliqaury witch is considered an exotic types

[proper lodge]

Then i was just unlucky

[gaunt radish]

this guy sells it?

[stuck berry]

Gek/korv/vy settlements absolutely are in purple systems

I have two of them in those I think

[subtle perch]

Mostly galactic terminal

[indigo lion]

well a quick google says they 'generally' arent found there. so its just super rare im guessing. or only certain ones are able to.

[stuck berry]

Not exotic, that's ruined lush

[gaunt radish]

outlaw stations has a terminal?????

[stuck berry]

You were correct in that, they do not appear on dead or weird "exotic" worlds

[gaunt radish]

where?

[subtle perch]

Use economy scanner and scan for trading outpost

[stuck berry]

No, just that guy

or yeah the ones at trade outpost

but not in the stations, those guys are basically just a trade terminal

[gaunt radish]

ohh

or build one myself but

gahh

[proper lodge]

Oh i see, guess that was a bug that i couldn't find any

[stuck berry]

probably was a gas giant system

[subtle perch]

Outlaw trading outpost is the best way to farm s class ship btw

[stuck berry]

they struggle to be located on moons, or spawn at all, it's strange

[gaunt radish]

wym

class S ships or class S ship upgrade things

[stuck berry]

highest chance for S-Class ships, tools, freighters etc

[indigo lion]

how do you know that but every post i pulled up when i first found the planet said its considered an exotic. 😭 im so confused.

[subtle perch]

S ships
Outlaw have 5% chance, higher than wealthy 2%

[gaunt radish]

i see

[stuck berry]

Idk, but they're wrong #nms-commands message
I've even seen them all myself, The Reliquary is a name for ruined lush

[subtle perch]

Trading outpost spawn 5 ship per respawn

[gaunt radish]

can anyone taxi me to a space station which has exotic waves btw?

or where do i ask for this

i really need to upgrade my ships slots

[subtle perch]

Try lfg, but there’s a discord server specifically for taxi

[gaunt radish]

ohh

#1418605454300549120

right?

[stuck berry]

!starcablink

[tulip dust]

https://discord.gg/WgUdnbZJjh

[stuck berry]

or ask in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[gaunt radish]

thanks

question tho

[indigo lion]

all what? ur telling me youve seen every possible planet type? if so idk if i should be impressed or worried for your sanity.

[gaunt radish]

anyone got a space station with the exotic wave thing

i can have the gylphs for the taxi?

[stuck berry]

Should just be that if I recall

[subtle perch]

What’s exotic wave?

[gaunt radish]

yk when the first 3 ships contain a exotic ship

so u just buy it, salvage and

[stuck berry]

probably a "first wave" exotic, how space station ship spawns work

[gaunt radish]

boom thingies

[gaunt radish]

yeah that

[stuck berry]

could just use glyphs to crash sites for them

[gaunt radish]

didnt explain correctly

[gaunt radish]

huh?

[proper lodge]

It has gold?

[subtle perch]

https://www.reddit.com/r/NMSCoordinateExchange/s/wv7CRwX2wt

[gaunt radish]

ty

[stuck berry]

There are also some planets that have the features of Salvageable Scrap, but lack the two structures added in Remnant and don't say they have Salv Scrap. These planets most likely also have these rusted ship things, as they use the exact same regular object spawning table as the "new" ones

[subtle perch]

You can also search there for crashed exotic

[wet sigil]

Crashed exotic has a disadvantage: it doesn't respawn immediately, first wave does

[stuck berry]

That is indeed true\

[wet sigil]

I can give it to you later, I am away from pc rn

[subtle perch]

I’m still debating if I should ship hunt solo, portal ships doesn’t have the personal attachment factor

But I don’t have time to grind after work

Btw my current ship

I love how ugly it is

[wet sigil]

I hunt only freighters and organic frigates, since I can mod the odds of different ranks without completely throwing the rank mechanic out the window. E.g. if I set s rank go be guaranteed, I can be sure that every dreadnought I encounter is the same for everyone else, but I can't do that for crashed ships because it won't be the same for everyone else

The 1x4 SC layout dreadnought I am using is a personal find, my MTs are not, just a random examples

[proper lodge]

How rare are normal freighter battles? My last 13 encounters(without reloading) were just pirate dreadnoughts even if i warped into normal system

[stuck berry]

The chances of encountering them differs based on conflict level of the system, and systems that roll the chance to have a dread battle instead will always have dread battles instead

[subtle perch]

capital ship every 3 hours + 5 warp, pirate is 20% chance every warp in outlaw system

[stuck berry]

I don't think I ever found the exact chances, but Outlaw Systems always have dread battles, high conflict almost always, medium conflict quite often and low conflict super rare

[stuck berry]

Not really, both follow the same cooldown, the 20% is only for outlaw systems and rolled per system

[proper lodge]

What conflict lvl even does?

[indigo lion]

higher chance of pirate encounter

[wet sigil]

Incorrect, every pirate star has 20% chance to spawn dreadnought fight 100% of the time, the other 80% behaves like normal

[subtle perch]

Isn’t that what I said?

[stuck berry]

20% of Outlaw and 10% of High Conflict Systems have a Pirate Dreadnought Event every time they're warped to, this chance is predetermined, systems that fail this roll will never have this property

[proper lodge]

So i should go for t1 ?

[stuck berry]

it's not a 20% chance for every warp to have a dread

[subtle perch]

Oh I forgot to add outlaw system

[stuck berry]

it's a 20% of all outlaw systems have a special property that makes them always spawn a dread

[subtle perch]

Yea typo

[stuck berry]

warping between a bunch of outlaw systems that fail this roll will result in failure/waiting for the cooldown to occur

but yeah, the cooldown also applies to pirate dread events normally, in which they replace the freighter battles of systems in increasing chances based on conflict

systems that roll to have a pirate dread event in that context will never have regular freighter battles again after you qualify for pirate dread battles to occur

[indigo lion]

if you want the best chance of a standard freighter battle pick a peaceful/tranquil system. any least conflict level you can find

[wet sigil]

In other words, the type of fight you will encounter in that system is pre-determined

[stuck berry]

also, pirate dread events always have a capital freighter being attacked still

[forest night]

Does the permadeath achievement unlock under the preset, or does simply toggling the “save deleted” option give you the chance to get it?

[stuck berry]

so no need to avoid pirate dread events, if anything they're easier

[stuck berry]

latter

if that's enabled, achievement's yours in the end

I tested it myself twice with wacko combo of options

[forest night]

Ok, cool. Wanted to try it on the absolute hardest settings because I’m a masochist

[subtle perch]

Good luck

[stuck berry]

I've been meaning to do that for a long time

[forest night]

Not turning on abandoned mode though

Abandoned just doesn’t sound that fun IMO

[stuck berry]

Yeah, that's it's own thing really

[wet sigil]

Have fun

[subtle perch]

Also make sure you turn PvP off

[wet sigil]

Abandoned saves you the trouble of unlocking purple systems

[stuck berry]

in exchange for all the other existential trouble that could exist

[wet sigil]

No freighters, no one calling you interloper, relying only on X ranks, etc etc

I believe you still get corvettes though?

[subtle perch]

Question: I have a ship but I forgot where I got it, does the ship description show which system it’s found in?

[stuck berry]

Unfortunately, no

nothing about it will assist you in relocating it's origin, other than spinning around space stations trying to match ships to it's appearance, or building your own with parts to look as close to it as you can

[subtle perch]

Rip

Anyway it’s only 6/10

[neat hawk]

So I've just seen dreadnoughts and after looking in the wiki it looks like they help fight freighters?? That would go crazy for me I've been farming vykeen freighters non stop for a few days

Do they? How do I go about getting one??

[stuck berry]

They do not do that when in your own possession, if that's what you're seeking

[subtle perch]

I don’t think they help you fight freighter?

[neat hawk]

💔NOOO

That sucks

[stuck berry]

the guns on them are basically cosmetic for our own purposes

[subtle perch]

I mean they send out frigate, but they don’t do much

[neat hawk]

Eitherway the look cool do they just spawn in pirate systems or what?

[stuck berry]

I think the combat frigate only assists you when pirates attack too

[stuck berry]

See this post #nms-questions message

[neat hawk]

That sucks🥀 I'd love a pirate expansion one day

[stuck berry]

Basically, you have to already own a freighter, as well as have encountered at least two freighter battles so far

once both of those are reached, they replace the freighter battles for most outlaw systems and all outlaw systems

[neat hawk]

Alright, thanks!

[stuck berry]

as well, 20% of all outlaw systems are given the ability to have a Pirate Dreadnought Event spawn every time they're warped to

so that can help make it consistent, if you want it at a decent class or don't want to wait for the cooldown #nms-questions message

[knotty frigate]

That's assuming I'm still not bumping into shit like I never played a flight sim of any kind before lol

[stuck berry]

Even if you bump into stuff, four trench runs is easily shorter than it's destruction if you're careful

[wet sigil]

Honestly you can simply fire into the trench if that's makes it easier for you

I think the trench is shorter than the max range of most weapons

[proper lodge]

I need to avoid so i can get freighter that i want

[stuck berry]

What freighter do you want?

The only type of freighter that is never a part of pirate dread events are system freighters, which you can only get after that point by pulsing around

[proper lodge]

Max size venator

[knotty frigate]

That's pretty seamless actually

[stuck berry]

Well again, Pirate Dreadnought Events always have a capital freighter being attacked

So again, no need to avoid them

[tropic ginkgo]

are they recognizable from Discoveries/scan?

[stuck berry]

No, due to the "tag" being missing/blank

[proper lodge]

You can't interact with saved freighter if it's pirate dreadnought battle

[stuck berry]

False.

[proper lodge]

Even after destroying dreadnought

[stuck berry]

You can always board it as long as it is saved in any way

[proper lodge]

I did board but i can't speak with captain

[stuck berry]

I've had to do so hundreds of times to check them

[stuck berry]

Bug, one I've never come across so far

might be new, idk

it's not intended though

[proper lodge]

He just sits there looking into nothing, only thing i could interact with is chair near him

[stuck berry]

Then yeah, some sort of bug

I could check myself again and maybe they are just bugged, but I feel like it might just be one of those annoying random ones caused by nothing

[proper lodge]

Alright thanks

[stuck berry]

we'd probably get lots of reports of freighters being unclaimable this way if it were some guaranteed issue, but at the same time most focus on the dread

[proper lodge]

Also do i have to buy that freighter or it's free for saving it from dreadnought?

[stuck berry]

Never free when saved from dread

[proper lodge]

Ungrateful losers, should've left them die to dreadnought

[stuck berry]

Technically that is a strategy, due to some loopholes
-# you can destroy the warp drives on the dread and wait for them to destroy the civilian freighter, then you may board them and claim tribute as well as destroy the dread for an S-Class upgrade

[proper lodge]

What is price of S class capital freighter?

[stuck berry]

Like 178 mil on normal

[proper lodge]

Damn, gotta sell my whole storage of valuables

[wet sigil]

You could claim a dreadnought before hand to pad some of that cost though

With the caveat that your current freighter isn't worth more than a dread

[torn void]

Hi fellas, Ive been using this ship (not my pic, couldnt get an own) for some time now, got really lucky early game Ig
Is this any good?

[formal stirrup]

Looks kinda cool, but I’ve been driving my Corvette for a while

[proper lodge]

Any ship is good, everything comes to looks

And exotic is always s class so thats another bonus

[wet sigil]

Exotics are not bad, they are not the best at anything but they don't have many glaring weaknessrs

E.g. their shield strength is second only to haulers, their hyperdrive range I believe is next only to explorers, the damage is 4th but it's just due to the massive gap between 4th and 5th, and there manuverability is pretty decent too

[formal stirrup]

What are the other bonuses for the other ships?

[torn void]

with this one ive easily managed to defeat dreadnoughts

And im happy with its agility and warp distance

and it looks sick af

[formal stirrup]

Yeah, I took my first one in a sentinel ship A class coincidentally my first one was class

[stuck berry]

These are the stat bonus % ranges for all of the ship types (corvettes match haulers)

These multiply that ending stat by that much %, so upgrades make these bonuses even more powerful

[torn void]

so exotic ones are pretty much the best allrounders?

[stuck berry]

Upgrades still matter a whole lot more of course, a fully upgraded C-Class shuttle will probably feel leagues better than a stock exotic ship

[stuck berry]

Pretty much, the default choice if you're bad at choosing a niche

[torn void]

are exotic ships essentially rare?

[formal stirrup]

Yeah, I basically just made my Corvette my main

[stuck berry]

Sentinel ships fair similarly, plus a lot of wacky quirks like unique tech, hovering and stuff

[wet sigil]

In a nutshell shell, yes, though exceptions apply

[formal stirrup]

I’ve had one for a while. What does that mean? The hovering part

[stuck berry]

Yes, a 1 in 301 chance to spawn in place of any ship you see flying in the sky/landing

[torn void]

i have yet to figure out all the tech spots lol, im kinda low on nanites and i wanna get a better freighter before farming nanites

[stuck berry]

They can stop in place in-atmosphere similar to corvettes, their handling works way differently in that they turn faster when they are boosting/fast, but slower when slowed down, they also only use half launch fuel and half warp cost

[formal stirrup]

Oh okay

lol was wondering why I was warping so much before running out

Also has a decent range

[wet sigil]

and they also have a slightly higher baseline warp range due to crimson core giving a decent amount of hidden hyperdrive range, but still fall short of explorers

[stuck berry]

Yes, their Crimson Core grants +600LY instead of the usual hyperdrive's +100LY

this is despite their far lower hyperdrive bonus % range, meaning upgraded exotic and explorer ships can usually surpass them

[formal stirrup]

Interesting

[wet sigil]

Most obvious when you compare it against a fighter ship, their warp range is bad bad

[formal stirrup]

Well, that’s the only one I really had. I just got my Corvette so I don’t know about that

[outer trellis]

Hi! If i Upgrade a MT Does the SC layout randomly change or the actual SC remain and just another one is added?

[stuck berry]

Remains and one is added in a predetermined position

[wet sigil]

Corvette uses the Hauler stats, but that's a can all on its own

[formal stirrup]

I don’t know bout y’all but selling sentinel ships seems like a really good money method.

[stuck berry]

Corvettes have their special tech, which more than makes up for the low bonuses

[wet sigil]

That is a reason I am a strong advocate for sentinel scrapping as a money maker, at least an active method. Maybe you get lucky a strike a s rank along the way.

But harmonic camp is what seals the deal for me, it's far more reliable than scanning for emergency signals

[formal stirrup]

Bro, it’s so insanely good I made 100 million with like 3 with getting really good parts

[wet sigil]

The only downside of sentinel scrapping is that early on, bad luck can make inverted mirror hunting obnoxious

[formal stirrup]

Yeah, dude, I only like a day in this game that was a pain in my ass

[outer trellis]

One thing i did at the start was setting camps at the sentinel crash sites

You come back after 1 day and they are all back and they need 0 repair

[formal stirrup]

But after getting lucky with one of those at either the the camps or nearby every ship I got 10 so was not really problem

[outer trellis]

For some reason they reapear perfectly fine with 0 broken parts

[formal stirrup]

Oh shit really

Dang it I went to Black hole before getting a portal there

[outer trellis]

I have like 9 bases of a mix of like 6 A, 2B and 2S sentinel ships

[formal stirrup]

Might’ve forgot the space station as well as well

[outer trellis]

If i want i make like 1000 millions in any moment xd

[formal stirrup]

lol might have to do that strat now

Did not know that was even possible

Left all that behind

[outer trellis]

But i mean it's easy to replicate

[formal stirrup]

Fair enough

[outer trellis]

You locate an harmonic camp, farm it

[formal stirrup]

?

[outer trellis]

With just one harmonic camp you can locate as many ships as you want

[formal stirrup]

Can those be used more than once?

[wet sigil]

Yea

[stuck berry]

yes, functionally endlessly

[outer trellis]

For locating crashed ships? yes

For MT only one

[formal stirrup]

I forgot how to find those what’s the process of getting it?

[formal stirrup]

Whats that

[outer trellis]

multitool

[stuck berry]

Just shoot Dissonance Resonators until you get an Echo Locator instead of an Inverted Mirror

You can also not shoot them and just look at them to see what they'll drop, to avoid unnecessary fighting

[formal stirrup]

Oh yeah got lucky with an A class one at my 2nd one and my current one till I find it S

Yeah, I thought they were only used one so my main way finding the ships was just by shooting a bunch of settles cause doing that eventually gets you one

[outer trellis]

And stats are rerolled right

[stuck berry]

Yes, to somewhere within the next tier of ranges

[outer trellis]

But, the stats that are rolled depends on the planet? For example, i find 4 Atlantid MT in a planet. They are all the same "model" bc they are from the same planet, but they have different SC slots and classes. When i upgrade all of them to S, will each of them have different SC and different Stats?

[formal stirrup]

What’s the best one?

[outer trellis]

Or just different SC slots

[gaunt radish]

anyone got that chart where i can see what each item does to genetics of a eggie?

[stuck berry]

I think all of them will have the same stats, and the placement of the added SC slots will be the same but their initial SC slots will still be in their random places based on where they were found

[proper lodge]

are these just numbers added or % of stat boost?

[stuck berry]

The one you think looks cool really, or you can go based on the purpose you seek

[stuck berry]

% of stat boost

[outer trellis]

BUT naturally found S class will have different stats that the upgrade ones right?

[proper lodge]

alright thanks

[stuck berry]

Yes, it will

and technically, these natural stats have weight based on local system economy

[outer trellis]

As far as i know that only influxes the class, not the stats

[stuck berry]

so ones found in wealthy systems will slightly tend to higher, while those in outlaw systems or others will be more random or lesser, by that tiny bit

[stuck berry]

Well now you are learning something new to you

I don't think we've nailed down where the files n stuff determine this, but some players a long bit ago did tons of testing to prove this

[outer trellis]

i think one person here explained to me that the lower roll happens only in outlaws economies but for, specifically, found freighters AND weapons upgraded to S, not found

[merry rover]

What is a cargo pod used for in building a corvette ?

[stuck berry]

for multi-tools, it seems to only affect the damage stat

[outer trellis]

Like, if you find an S class in outlaw it'll have normal stats, but if you find an A class and upgrade, lower

[stuck berry]

the stats for those upgraded to S don't relate to system economy at all

if it did, this would change based on the system you upgrade it in

[wet sigil]

I think they were talking about naturally spawned S rank Vs upgraded s rank

[outer trellis]

Yes

[stuck berry]

The upgraded stats are solely based on the seed of the tool/etc, which isn't something that magically determines lower values per system economy

it has no weight, while natural ones do have weight

that's how I've observed it and seen it explained so far at least

[outer trellis]

Like, the thing that can affect lower stat roll is being in outlaw. But specifically there are two things that are affected: More variability in freighters (not that they are necessarily worse, but it's more often) and that if you upgrade a found A B or C weapon to S (it doesnt matter WHERE you upgrade, but only if you found it in outlaw) it'll be worse problably

[outer trellis]

that's what the user said, sorry i dont remember the exact name, jbl

something like that

[outer trellis]

then this is a different thing hahahaha, i don't know which one is true then

[stuck berry]

Well the game has no way of determining which eco you found it in originally upon upgrade, so idk

maybe it's just in comparison to the ones naturally found there

[outer trellis]

Mmm i guess it's the same way they determine the stats and SC slots no? the seed of the planet you found it

[stuck berry]

but I've heard that outlaw tend to have more random ranges, undesireable

[stuck berry]

They generate their own seeds, and these seeds don't have information like that or follow the same things that the economies do

you can reduce the amount of outlaw systems via mods to 0 and things like these stay the same

[wet sigil]

That's the one thing that is , in my head, a bit controversial, I think there maybr some confirmation bias involved but I have no counterargument except that this can only truly resolved if the source code could be examine on how the game determines its stats, which isn't likely at this stage

[outer trellis]

In my head the explanation i said it's absurd gameplay wise

Bc if you go to an outlaw is specifically to found a naturally S class

[wet sigil]

But regardless, personally I think the difference usually isn't big enough to matter in most cases

[outer trellis]

There's no reason to farm for an A class and then upgrade it

If you go to an outlaw

[stuck berry]

ever since I started using a lower end staff and got nearly the same results as the +50% 4 square craze machine I stopped caring about the tiny variations that can't be easily controlled

[abstract ivy]

what is this

[stuck berry]

An enlarged Colossus exocraft with the processing thing back part, enlarged and spawned in the anomaly from a player's corvette-class starship

[abstract ivy]

how do even do that

[stuck berry]

Mods/exploits allow the construction of exocraft geobays aboard corvette-class starships, as well as the enlargement of objects that can't normally be enlarged (like the Colossus Geobay) which results in the spawned exocraft being enlarged itself

[abstract ivy]

ok thx

[proper lodge]

why some systems don't have conflict data?(i have scanner installed)

[stuck berry]

Abandoned/Uncharted systems

Abandoned systems lack conflict data but have economy and dominant race data, Uncharted systems lack all data

[knotty frigate]

Is it me or are the sentinel mods kinda bad for multi tools?

[stuck berry]

They're tiny increases, but they help the Boltcaster out a lot

they have absolutely no effect on any of the other weapons

[knotty frigate]

I feel like it's me, I'm getting like 1% dmg to my pulse spitter

[stuck berry]

you're getting +0% on that

[knotty frigate]

And added reload speed

(categoric buns)

[stuck berry]

yeah, it doesn't affect the Pulse Spitter, or any weapon other than the Boltcaster

[knotty frigate]

Even if it's for the pulse spitter? Sentinel mods only affect boltcaster?

[stuck berry]

Sentinel mods only affect the Boltcaster

[knotty frigate]

I had no idea

[stuck berry]

It's definitely not clear immediately, but they also lack adjacency with anything except the Boltcaster

[wet sigil]

I had tested this a few months back, it is true, with a pulse spitter specifically

[proper lodge]

do exotic planets that have dissonance don't have anything that normal dissonance planets have?

[stuck berry]

They have everything except Harmonic Camps and Sentinel Interceptor Crash Sites

[proper lodge]

alright thanks

does fish expire after some time if it's not in cold storage ?

[stuck berry]

No

[proper lodge]

alright thanks

[stuck berry]

It's just a place to put them, either to remember or to cook/sell later

[wide onyx]

what is dissonance, i js found my first planet with that and idk what it is

[outer trellis]

If you have a good reroll they are good!

a good roll*

[stuck berry]

purple crystals, corrupted sentinels, dissonance resonators etc, reality falling apart

[proper lodge]

thats planet with corrupted sentinels( basically 2-3 fused sentinels) atlantid, often has gravitational storms, very important to lore and many more

[stuck berry]

They also have special camps with wacky sentinel multi-tools, as well as sentinel starships crashed around

[wide onyx]

what do they offer tho

im greedy for money

[proper lodge]

sentinel ships and sentinel multi tools

[stuck berry]

Scrapping sentinel ships is definitely one of the quickest get rich quick schemes early on

[outer trellis]

One thing funny you can do in some dissonant planets is go to the space with the jetpack

[stuck berry]

Just locat a harmonic camp and mark it with a base and you're set basically

[wide onyx]

are they good? i alr have a B class with all S tech

[stuck berry]

You can locate one of those by getting an Echo Locator. 20% of Dissonance Resonators have one, you can see what they have by walking up to them if you want to avoid fighting (corrupted sentinels are peaceful until provoked)

[wide onyx]

say less

🤑

that planet is getting raided top to bottom

[proper lodge]

yeah, they have natural bonus to their exclusive tech and is one of few ships that can hover aside from corvettes and 2 expedition ships

[wide onyx]

nicee

ill be sure to get one tonight then

[stuck berry]

they also have halved launch and warp costs natively

[proper lodge]

does fish share class rarity with everything else?

[stuck berry]

No, they use their own wacky rarity chances

[wide onyx]

and is there anything of use on the planet like making a farm or smt

[proper lodge]

harmonic camps have radar that you can use infinitely to find sentinel ships

[stuck berry]

Kinda, you can refine Atlantideum (the resource you get from mining the crystals) with Pugneum (the resource that Sentinels drop) to get some nanites. There's also Radiant Shards which also refine into a few nanites but both aren't the craziest
And of course sentinel ship shenanigans

[wide onyx]

and can i sell said sentinel ships?

[proper lodge]

but be aware that you must repair that sentinel ship before finding new one

[proper lodge]

yep

[wide onyx]

for a decent amount?

[tulip dust]

@wide onyx

No stickers in this channel please

[stuck berry]

A great amount, as they come fully undamaged

[proper lodge]

great

[stuck berry]

probably the highest value other than haulers

[wide onyx]

that planet is getting ransacked in ONE night

im not sleeping

[stuck berry]

due to how many undamaged cargo slots they have

[proper lodge]

you forgot about their brain repair but thats can be done very quick

[stuck berry]

yes, but after that they're fully undamaged

unlike other crashed ships that are damaged all over upon claiming, reducing value considerably

[formal stirrup]

How do you do that hover thing with a sentinel ship

[stuck berry]

Just hold the reverse button while in-atmosphere

you stop almost completely, unlike other ship types which have a minimum speed

sentinels and corvettes still have a minimum speed, it's just way way lower, less than 1u/s

[proper lodge]

just hold backwards button

[proper lodge]

corvettes have full 0 if you leave the seat

[formal stirrup]

Ohh thats what meant kk

[tight lily]

Does someone wanna play with me and help me get a staff? I dont understand any videos im seeing tbh

[formal stirrup]

How do I find those things to get echo locators

[stuck berry]

To get a staff, you need to complete a certain mission that comes after the main story #nms-commands message

[stuck berry]

Look around with your Analysis Visor on dissonant worlds, 20% of them will contain an Echo Locator

[formal stirrup]

Only says unavailable for me

[stuck berry]

Switch to the first mode, not survey mode

There should be one within range to at least see, if the planet isn't very mountainous

[outer trellis]

Did you get the echo locator?

[deep pier]

best way to get lots of oxegen and a lot of freighter modules (for base parts, not inventory slots)

[tight lily]

I think ive completed all three of the main stories? And ik ive done artemis, he was that other traveler i ko’d

[dusty thicket]

(and sometimes they do that annoying glitched speed thing even when holding the button where it rapidly switches between ~35mps and 0 and slowly crashes you into stuff no I'm not annoyed you're annoyed)

[stuck berry]

For Salvaged Frigate Modules, see this post #nms-questions message
For Oxygen, consider making an oxygen farm using gas extractors #nms-questions message

[tight lily]

So how to get staff? Im just so confused

[stuck berry]

Do you have New Beginnings in your log?

[tight lily]

Yes i have new beginnings, it says to enjoy the galaxy

[stuck berry]

Have you lifted the seal of a Harmonic Camp for the first time yet?

[formal stirrup]

Nope can’t find one

[tight lily]

Im not sure? Possibly/possibly not

[stuck berry]

(You can know if you have by checking if you have the Aeron Turbojet backpack customization option unlocked)

[tight lily]

Ok

I do not have it, and thanks for helping me so far

[stuck berry]

Then you should just have to locate a Harmonic Camp and finish it's puzzle

[tight lily]

Ok ill do that, is there a certain place or should i look it up

[stuck berry]

Basically locate a dissonant world, look for Dissonance Resonators on them using your Analysis Visor, 20% of those will have an Echo Locator, use that item to locate a Harmonic Camp

[proper lodge]

are hologram gestures do anything or nah?

[tight lily]

Ok ok

[stuck berry]

Systems that have dissonant worlds in them say Dissonant on the galaxy map

[proper lodge]

like show my ship and etc

[stuck berry]

They show the hologram that they show

but I believe this hologram does not appear for other players in multiplayer

[proper lodge]

alright thanks

[wide onyx]

and do you guys think getting pirate freighter and selling it is worth my time??

[stuck berry]

We can't sell our own freighter, we can only exchange it for another one

as we can only own one freighter at a time, and can't just get rid of them

[abstract ivy]

it shoot a laser

how it possible

[stuck berry]

It's a corvette-class starship that far exceeds the normal boundaries/limits

and probably bugged out on landing/takeoff so maybe it's technically flying, idk

[abstract ivy]

why is at the norma; starhip landing

[stuck berry]

Probably due to the bug where switching between a normal ship and a corvette places it at a normal landing pad

[abstract ivy]

ok

thx

[wide onyx]

how to i get undamaged sentinal ships from dissonance planets??

cuz the wiki says i have to repair it

[stuck berry]

You always have to repair the Pilot Interface

but after fixing that, they are undamaged when you claim them

A mission is given to you upon interacting with the sentinel ship that walks you through the repair

[wet sigil]

Just a addendum, the step that involves harmonising a brain cannot be started at all without having the 3 radiant shards and inverted mirror already in your inventory

So if the game keeps spitting out an error when interacting with a hyaline brain, check you have both the shards and mirror.

Also another addendum, every sentinel ship crashed site will have a broken robot at the back of it, which, when first interacting it, will require you to take something out of it in order to "feed" it.

Always loot that robot, it can sometimes yield a full stack of mirrors, which drastically cuts down needing to hunt down resonantors. You don't need to feed the robot, just take the stuff out and move on

[rocky hamlet]

When is the next expédition in the anomaly ??

[stuck berry]

We dunno, stay tuned to #nms-announcements

There isn't one for Xeno Arena

Also #nms-expedition will open up again when one is available

[wide onyx]

unlike normal ships, that come half destroyed even after basic repairs?

[stuck berry]

Normal crashed ships come with damaged cargo slots, damaged technology slots and damaged technology, but all of this can be repaired to equal a fully undamaged starship

[wide onyx]

ik ik

so i gotta do allat work?

😔

like fixing the slots and stuff

[wet sigil]

Not for sentinels

[stuck berry]

and not if you're going to immediately salvage the ship

[wide onyx]

are the ships worth more salvaged if i fix them fully?

[stuck berry]

only if you repair cargo slots that were damaged

[wide onyx]

and is it worth fixing sentinal ships and not js immediately salvaging

[pallid tiger]

generally not worth the time

[wide onyx]

alr

[stuck berry]

again, sentinel ships come fully undamaged after the Pilot Interface is repaired

[wide onyx]

oh yeaaa

thats great

[stuck berry]

that's one major reason why they salvage for the most

as more undamaged cargo slots = more value

and they already come with nearly the most

[wide onyx]

yep, and you said smt about having it as a flyby your corvette right?

[stuck berry]

Huh?

You could recruit ships to your squadron to have them fly alongside you I guess

for sentinel ships, that requires you to exchange them for another lifeform's starship, then hire the lifeform that now has your ship before they take off with it (saving before this to reload if something goes wrong is advised)

[wide onyx]

alr so i use the harmonic camps to locate sentinal ships, repair their console, (they alr have all the cargo slots repaired), i take those i can keep them or salvage

[wide onyx]

alr

thanks a lot

[stuck berry]

And remember to mark the Harmonic Camp with either a Save Beacon or claimed Base Computer, so that you can see where it is to return to it

[wide onyx]

because before this i was doing boring chlorine farms

[stuck berry]

the latter allows teleportation back to it, even without a teleporter built at it

[wide onyx]

ill prob put a save beacon because the space station is right above the planet anyways

[wide onyx]

thats great ig

but there is a space station which also works

[viscid echo]

This ship appeared while searching for crashed ships. Is it rare? It's the first time I've seen one like this (I started playing the day before yesterday).

[stuck berry]

Super rare, exotic ships are a 1 in 301 chance to spawn in place of any regular ship spawn

[wide onyx]

i think its an exotic or smt

idk

[viscid echo]

What is a smt?

[stuck berry]

short for "something"

[wide onyx]

something cuz i dont know much

[proper lodge]

exotic is either looks like squid or black ball with enormous wings

[wide onyx]

what is NMS Service Bot??

[deep pier]

its very good

[stuck berry]

A service offered by a community member where a bot joins your game and does wacky mod stuff

[wide onyx]

works on ps?

[stuck berry]

Yes, as the game has crossplay

[wide onyx]

do i need ps+ tho

[stuck berry]

Yes

[wide onyx]

oh

[deep pier]

wait to get the glyphs u just need to keep warping?

[wide onyx]

alr

[stuck berry]

as that is required for multiplayer at all

[deep pier]

thats so boringgggg

[stuck berry]

If you're on The Purge, yes (wait a sec after each warp for progress to register)

If not, just keep progressing the main story #nms-commands message

[deep pier]

well at the very least i got the indium drive super early so i can go pretty much anywhere

also are purple stars only in the second galaxy? dont see any in elucid

[stuck berry]

they are in all galaxies, hidden until you finish the relevant mission #nms-commands message

You will never see them before beginning this mission

[outer trellis]

Do pillars and monoliths reset the cabinet after some time?

Like, do they forgot that you have taken the MT? similar of guild envoys

[stuck berry]

Kinda, after you've done enough things since then yeah

[outer trellis]

which like if enough things has been done

[vernal oxide]

um guys what your opinion on me getting stuck in a washing machine

adn will you pull me out if i ask

@wet sigil

[tight lily]

Ok i got the aeron backpack now what do i do next (staff)

[stuck berry]

Warp to another star system via your starship

If this warp triggers a freighter battle, warp again

[storm token]

Hi, does anyone know when is the next expedition? (I'm new) 🩵

[stuck berry]

Nobody does, stay tuned to #nms-announcements

Also, the #nms-expedition channel will open when a new expedition is available

[outer trellis]

Do you know how much time and things you have to do for it to trigger the reset?

aproximately

[stuck berry]

Not really

[proper lodge]

can freighter battle apppear if i warp using freighter?

[merry rover]

How do I get more space in my technology?

[proper lodge]

upgrade storage or remove everything with stats except things that needed to finalize corvette(it will keep all your unlocked slots)

[merry rover]

Wait wdym remove everything with stats?

[proper lodge]

there are parts(engines, hubs, landing thrusters and etc) that have stats

[merry rover]

But if I remove them my ship won’t have them

[proper lodge]

you can see their stats by looking at them in building menu or inventory

[proper lodge]

you can place them back after you place all needed technology modules

[pallid tiger]

#nms-questions message

[merry rover]

Where do I put it

[proper lodge]

go in build mode and remove them with X(idk how on console)

they will go in corvette storage on space station

[merry rover]

It says I can only do it in corvette workshop but when I do it in corvette workshop it just gets rid of them

And they don’t stay on my ship

[proper lodge]

because they go in corvette storage ON space station

this thing

[deep pier]

see this is why the autophage are my favourite species

man just gave me 10 inverted mirrors

[merry rover]

I’m still confused… I need Landing gear and reactors, when I delete them in the corvette workshop it doesn’t put them to storage

Just deleted them from my corvette

[proper lodge]

did you look in the thing i sent you?

thats how it looks like when you interact with it and there should be your parts
