nms-questions

[gaunt radish]

i love this

i wish settlements could work like this

scavenging stuff of their planet

or having pve vs other npc settlements

[dusty thicket]

They kinda can, they can go on excursions as a potential event/decision

[gaunt radish]

i kinda wish settlements werent like just go, decide and forget bout it

but u being able to choose what to build freely, etc etc

like freights

[gray shoal]

If not build whatever then at least chose where to place the building. Something simliar way to frostpunk.

[gaunt radish]

yeah at least that

even tho i like settlements

i dislike how they work

how do i see the max energy my freighter has

apparently rooms can consume energy?

[bitter crypt]

I don't believe so, on a freighter

[stuck berry]

It has endless power

[gaunt radish]

oh

i see

alr

ty

[stuck berry]

each room simply radiates power inside of it

including the catwalks/walkways

[gaunt radish]

a bit bummed out the extractors are only for gas mostly

wish there was a module to select a planet of the system to extract materials from it

can i put ship upgrades to the freighter?

nah right

like the hyperdrive stuff yk

[stuck berry]

Not starship upgrades

freighters have their own upgrade modules

[gaunt radish]

how i get those

expeditions?

[stuck berry]

#nms-commands message

[worn oxide]

freighters have their own upgrades

[gaunt radish]

i see

blowing freighters

ty

[silver bluff]

how do i get to another galaxy?

[worn oxide]

you can get them from the derelict freighters from the emergency signal scanners

[worn oxide]

go to the center of your current one

[stuck berry]

By warping through the core of the previous galaxy #nms-commands message, ||selecting to reset the simulation at the end of the main story||, by teleporting to a base from the space anomaly (three featured bases are in different galaxies than Euclid, including two lush galaxies), or via joining someone there via multiplayer

[silver bluff]

what the core of euclid whats the cords?

like the portal address

[stuck berry]

Here are coordinates that lead directly there, if you have all 16 portal glyphs

overall, sends you within 5,000 LY of the center of the galaxy that you use it in

[worn oxide]

if you use the all the first glyph for your address in any galaxy it will always get you somewhere near the center, just some info to know

[naive gate]

whya re the exocraft so slow

[stuck berry]

you have not installed engine or boost upgrade modules yet

you can purchase these from space station exocraft tech merchants, you can install up to 3 of each

[naive gate]

i have the boost

[gaunt radish]

are all the sentinel ships of a dissonant planet the same rank?

[stuck berry]

S-Class ones aren't rare, just expensive

[gaunt radish]

or can one be C rank, another A rank

etc

[naive gate]

but it runs out in 1 second and iwhtotu it tis so small

[stuck berry]

Then install more, and possibly install engine upgrades too

[gaunt radish]

you have the boosyt

not the upgrades for the boost

[naive gate]

yea

[naive gate]

from the space station

[stuck berry]

Each crash site rolls it's class individually

[gaunt radish]

yeah, you need the upgrades for that

[silver bluff]

im in the system now what?

[stuck berry]

Warp into the center #nms-commands message

make sure your hyperdrive is 100% fueled, prepare for technology damage if you don't want that

packaging exosuit tech, and switching to a junk starship/multi-tool is advised for that

[versed lodge]

Hi, I'm playing with a friend who uses Xbox, and I use Steam. We both board each other's reighter ships, but we see them differently. We want to know if this is normal or if it's a bug

[stuck berry]

This is indeed a bug, it's been the case since 6.00 (August 2025)

Is yellow a common color for interceptor?

[stuck berry]

Kinda, yeah

[subtle perch]

What about big wing?

[stuck berry]

"Big wing"?

[subtle perch]

Big dragonfly wing

[stuck berry]

The "dragonfly wings" are somewhat uncommon themselves

[subtle perch]

Alright I’m keeping this as my main ship. Not the best looking but

Wait…
I’ve been just swapping ships cuz my ship inventory is full

Uugghhh

help, game doesnt launch - i have NMS installed on steam, whenever i click "PLAY", steam says for a moment (few seconds) that game is running, and window that shows a black screen pops up for a few seconds, mouse is in the "stuck loading" animation, and it disappears without saying anything, no error report no nothing. and in steam, the button goes back to "PLAY".

im on desktop using AMD GPU, driver software is latest, i have done a reinstall aswell.

[stuck berry]

If you don't get any answers here, possibly post in https://discord.com/channels/146101654981312513/964865106334875698

[strong aspen]

there IS however a text file called "FullLog.txt" located in the "GAMEDATA" folder that says the following:
cTkStorageTemp (PC) unable to load file (Error 00000002) - C:\Users\my username\AppData\Roaming\HelloGames\NMS\st_76561198267513047\cache\DISABLEMODS

[sour ice]

So I deleted this base but it still appears in the planet and belonging to nobody so I cant even delete it again. Am I cooked or is there any way to fix this?

[subtle perch]

Is there a easy way to find caves?

[stuck berry]

Not sure, but uploading another base on the planet might make it go away. Maybe you uploaded it on another platform that was connected with cross-save?
It was weird with that before, but I thought that was fixed

[mossy cape]

Gold and White or Blue and Black?

[sour ice]

I have another base uploaded even before deleting that base, and no cross-save or another platform either

[gray shoal]

Often found near points of intrest

[stuck berry]

Then I'd advise reporting this to Hello Games, as it shouldn't appear as another players' base like that under any circumstances in this case

||im the part where i have to choose a galaxy to restart the simulation, is there any differences between the galaxies since theres one that is "dangerous", another "calm" and so on?||

storyline spoiler ^

[gray shoal]

Affects only diffrent planet biome chances in yellow systems

[stuck berry]

Yes #nms-questions message

||The red one is harsh, the green one is lush, the blue one is empty, the teal one is normal||

[gaunt radish]

thanks

||def taking the lush galaxy||

[wet sigil]

It's also probably the best choice, gives you the biggest headstart on your galaxy warping journey

[gaunt radish]

||after this whole trip like i was drugged, what am i supposed to do||

[errant moth]

More quests
||(aka finish atlas path till it's atlas eternal if you haven't, lift the seal of a harmonic camp so you can get They Who Returned, etc)||

[wet sigil]

You basically can do whatever you wish in the new galaxy

[gaunt radish]

can i jst go back too if i want?

to euclides?

[wet sigil]

Yes

[gaunt radish]

alr bet

[wet sigil]

But I would make a base computer in your new galaxy just so you have an anchor to teleport back if you ever want t0

[gaunt radish]

when do i get to use the portal

that lets me teleport anywhere through gylphs

also by some reason doing this duped my void egg

[wet sigil]

You need to find it first, which you can do via an alien monolith

[stuck berry]

Since you warped for the 16th time during The Purge

!faq-portal @gaunt radish

[tulip dust]

-# to view info below, enable embeds

Locating a Portal

1. Obtain the race relic item to give to a Monolith, [see this post](#nms-questions message);
2. Locate a Monolith, [see this post](#nms-questions message);
3. Interact with the same Monolith twice to locate Portal, [see this post](#nms-questions message).

📚 Notes:

• Portals don't have to be unlocked via any quest.
• To fully use the portal network, the player must unlock all 16 portal glyphs and purple star systems.
  • Run !faq-portalglyphs and !faq-purplesystems in #bot-spam to learn more.
• A portal is not the same as a teleporter. (see image )
• For planets in uncharted systems, obtain the glyph address of that planet via photomode, and portal to it from another system.
  

Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[stuck berry]

make sure to find a portal that is in the same galaxy as your desired destination

[gaunt radish]

i can also just make a base next to them to use them anytime

?

or re they one time use and gotta find another

oh bet

[stuck berry]

Yes, they may be reused endlessly

[gaunt radish]

so this part ive just did was to unlock a new galaxzy

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

alr thanks

[gaunt radish]

does visiting a space station work too??

[stuck berry]

Yes, but only the last ~73 space stations are saved in the teleport list

so having a claimed base in the galaxy will guarantee your ability to return

[gaunt radish]

i dont even have that many space stations saved 😭😭

ill just have a space station meanwhile

[gaunt radish]

related to the race relic item

i need all 3?

or jst one

of any

[stuck berry]

No, only the one related to the dominant race of the system you're in

[inland ermine]

There is no need to own more than 5 fleet control consoles, right? I'm starting to plan out the freighter base and really want to make it nice and symmetrical

[stuck berry]

Correct

[proper lodge]

can i offset freighter rooms?

[stuck berry]

I don't think that's normally possible, but maybe there's glitch building stuff that you can do #nms-base-building message

[gaunt radish]

wait...

i lost all my saved space stations

...

[proper lodge]

alright thanks, if i delete storage rooms in freighter and replace them do my resources disappear or not?

[stuck berry]

No, they do not

[proper lodge]

great

[gaunt radish]

any way to recover them?

[stuck berry]

as their contents aren't tied to the objects used to access them

[gaunt radish]

or gotta visit them all again

[stuck berry]

Unfortunately not, this is a bug that occurs in the current version of the game when core warping/||resetting the simulation||

[gaunt radish]

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[stuck berry]

at best, you can revisit the space stations to add them back to your list

[gaunt radish]

best weps for ships (not corvettes)

?

also what happens if your freighter gets destroyed or critical damage

[gray shoal]

U cant loose your freighter

[stuck berry]

This cannot occur

[gaunt radish]

it doesnt idk

upgrade modules get broken or smthing

theres no consequences on heavy damage against other freighters?

[stuck berry]

Again, it is not something that can happen

Our own freighter cannot be damaged in any meaningful, long term way

[gaunt radish]

so they can just keep fighting forever

with no damages?

[stuck berry]

NPCs might be able to damage it's cargo or turrets, but the freighter itself can never be damaged and resummoning it fixes everything

[gaunt radish]

ohh

the cargo

i see ty

[vapid sun]

i forgot how to find autophage camps

[gray shoal]

Use polychromic core tech

On your mt

[vapid sun]

i don’t understand

mt?

polychromic?

[gray shoal]

Multitool

[vapid sun]

oh duh

[gray shoal]

Polyphonic*

[vapid sun]

i still dont see it and I have autophage mt

[gray shoal]

Its a tech that u charge

[stuck berry]

You have at least it's blueprint

either install it onto your current Multi-Tool, or switch to a Multi-Tool that has it installed

then charge it with Atlantideum and activate it to locate an Autophage Camp

[vapid sun]

is it only in the one like this?

[gray shoal]

No u can instal the tech in any mt

[stuck berry]

It comes automatically installed on staffs I believe, but it can be installed on all types of Multi-Tools

[vapid sun]

ok. I got it. I remember now.

I feel kinda lost since I’ve completed all the main quests and chose not to reset the simulation- is going to the center of the galaxy a good next goal? I have been doing all kinds of stuff- nexus missions etc but feel kinda directionless

[wet sigil]

Not resetting the simulation just means you didn't get a free galaxy core warp, you are basically free to do whatever, I explored organic frigates and notable frieghters to share on NMSCE before I took a break

[vapid sun]

cool. ty!!

[gaunt radish]

why does the hyoerdrive of my sentinel like

BARELY consume any fuel

compared to the one of my corvette

do sentinels have like really high stat in that or wht

ive done like 20 jumps with my sentinel

[stuck berry]

Sentinel Interceptors natively only consume half warp fuel

[gaunt radish]

and its 80% left

ive done like 20 with my corvette

and empty

[gaunt radish]

i see

so these bad boys are better to explore

where i get these hearts_

?

[stuck berry]

From defeating Corrupted Sentinel Quadrupeds on dissonant worlds

[gaunt radish]

world of pain awaits me

[stuck berry]

if this is needed for a repair thing, you may use a Repair Kit instead

[gaunt radish]

oh

bet

life saver

grouch big brain as always, alr ty ma mans goodnight

holdup i seem to be a bit confused

how does one use these kits

[stuck berry]

Hover over the required repair item in the UI, then press "Use Repair Kit" #nms-questions message

[gaunt radish]

does it work on multitools_

im trying to repair a multitool

[stuck berry]

They work for repairing all things in your exosuit, owned starships and multi-tools, exocraft etc

[gaunt radish]

oh bet

yeah just got it

thanks gang

[stuck berry]

Note that if you install 3 Zenith-Class Reactors and 3 Hyperdrive Upgrade Modules that increase Warp Cell Efficiency, you can make a corvette more warp-fuel efficient than a sentinel ship

by a smidge (25% more)

[gaunt radish]

what if the sentinel

also has

zenith_

[stuck berry]

You cannot install corvette modules onto sentinel ships

[gaunt radish]

wait zenith?

the hell are zenith reactors

[stuck berry]

One of the four reactor types for Corvette-class starships

[gaunt radish]

wait you can have multiple reactors on a corvette_

?

[stuck berry]

Each of the types of reactor focus on a different thing

[gaunt radish]

huh

thats

damn

[stuck berry]

They act like upgrade modules of their own types

you can have up to 3 of each reactor type

[gaunt radish]

im probably gonna keep my corvette full on combat and my sentinel for exploring

if its like u said by a smidge

not worth

plus sentinels can just be recharged with radiants

so

didnt know could have up to 3 reactors tho

gotta lock in getting new corvette modules

my corvette deserves a revamp

welp alr ty grouch

[final spoke]

It feels like these inventories are infinite long

How much more am I gonna be upgrading my starship inventory like what

[gaunt radish]

tech slots can be up to 60 if S class

[stuck berry]

Up to these limits

[gaunt radish]

have fun getting those 60 slots

[gaunt radish]

^

ngl tho wouldnt even try maxing the cargo slots

if u have a corvette u can just get storage modules inside of it

[final spoke]

Wait hold on I have a follow-up quick
Wtf is this

[supple goblet]

May i ask, i saw a system code is X7, X is purple system but what does 7 means? Ty

[gaunt radish]

105 cargo slots

[stuck berry]

Exotic ships can have their cargo inventory raised to 105 slots

[stuck berry]

7 means nothing

[final spoke]

So 10 rows and one half row

That's

[stuck berry]

In the stellar class reading, all stuff after the first letter is meaningless randomness
lots of people have tried to find meaning in these text strings, but it's been proven for years that it's fully random and doesn't align with any factors or features of the star system

[final spoke]

What

[supple goblet]

Oh so the code just random after the first letter? Oki, ty XD

[final spoke]

Why

[gaunt radish]

like ive said

wouldnt get them

[stuck berry]

Dev decision back when the Waypoint update was being created https://www.nomanssky.com/waypoint-update/

(latest inventory overhaul)

[gaunt radish]

jesus grouch

you truly have every single thing ready for any question

truly nms wiki man

[final spoke]

I'll try to throw curveballs then and ask only truly esoteric questions

[gaunt radish]

someone dares to challenge grouch's knowledge

this is worth staying till 4am

[final spoke]

Like, there's a specific species on the wiki listed as "guppieflyer" and I am now truly invested in them

I have SSS desert and cold variants

Are there strategies to find specific species across the game as anything other than a community effort

Like, for example, I don't imagine there's somewhere for me to place a bounty on it, the same way speed runners and glitch hunters do

[gaunt radish]

😭😭

[stuck berry]

Not really, just lots of brute force to find the type of creature you want at whatever class you desire at whichever type you desire

[gaunt radish]

tho planet's biome is what sets the creatures type and their looks

[final spoke]

Do we have a set theory on that?

[gaunt radish]

it

its just like that

[wet sigil]

In some cases this is not the case, it's possible to find anomalous creatures on non-exotic biomes

[stuck berry]

It's how it works for nearly all fauna types. Some fauna types have a forced type, like plant cats, bonecats, purple weird floating things, mechanical ones etc

[final spoke]

Cuz I have looked into the guppieflyer and it seems anybody else who thinks to post pictures most of the time has them on cold planets

[gaunt radish]

most cases are in this way

[final spoke]

Naw, just wondering if there's a way to predict it

Like "if X is on Y planet, try looking at planets in the system or nearby or under similar conditions"

[stuck berry]

creature groups are just chosen randomly to my knowledge for most regular planets, so no "this one is more common on frozen worlds"

[wet sigil]

That would most likely involve reverse engineering the game's algorithm

[gaunt radish]

tho idk how much the planet's biome affects the design of a creature since ive seen creatures greener than grass in volcanic biomes

[gaunt radish]

someone 100% has done that

[final spoke]

Thus my question

[gaunt radish]

reddit

[wet sigil]

I am not aware of any public meghods

[gaunt radish]

thats where every big brain of nms will be

[stuck berry]

with the amount of misinfo I see on there sometimes, not really, but idk

[wet sigil]

The only entity I know that could possibly have done that has kept the algorithm a secret and hid it's results via paywall, if I am not 100% sure on that

[gaunt radish]

not every reddit post but always a reddit post

[gaunt radish]

crazy

ik a guy who sells 100 void eggs for 5 bucks, idk if anyone actually buys that but im getting off topic

[wet sigil]

However, if the algorithm went public, it does somewhat negatively impact exploration in this game

[gaunt radish]

very

the randomness is the fun part

[final spoke]

I remember as a kid answering Yahoo! Answers questions with random information I'd make up, and I still feel guilty about a lot of those random answers

I don't understand the internet at all I think

[wet sigil]

Which is completely stupid, as you can save edit yourself those eggs

[stuck berry]

This is why they protect it like eagles

they have and will pursue legal action to prevent their tech going public

[gaunt radish]

thats exactly what i thought, not even that u can just dupe them with 100 ways, BUT we are getting off topic

[gaunt radish]

very respectable

[stuck berry]

that's why the service bot stuff is a bot and not a script you can run yourself, an NDA was signed

[final spoke]

I still wanna put a bounty on it
Like
A few quid for someone who runs into what I'm looking for spontaneously

[gaunt radish]

u can do that, put a bounty on a specific design you wanna find

someone with free time will prob do that

[gaunt radish]

design, stats wtv

[final spoke]

New question for Grouch
Where

[gaunt radish]

reddit

best way

😭

even if its meant to grouch

[final spoke]

Nobody uses Reddit

[gaunt radish]

wrong

no mans sky reddit is pretty active

yo grouch

[solar osprey]

so why has a "sentinel captial ship" just spawned

[gaunt radish]

can one make a freight warp cell efficiency as efficient as a sentinel ship?

[stuck berry]

You reached a sentinel wanted level of 5, which is the max

[gaunt radish]

u made the sentinels very angwy

[stuck berry]

Yes, I'm actually testing that right now and my upgraded one matched my corvette, matching a sentinel ship without supercharging

[gaunt radish]

thats fun

[wet sigil]

Which is how many % per warp? 2%?

[gaunt radish]

i feel like freight would be better in exploring with the scanner module

does the fuel consume depending of the distance or is it always a set % depending of ur efficiency

[stuck berry]

Uhhh 4/120 per warp

[solar osprey]

hmm ok

[wet sigil]

Ah, so about 3.5%

[stuck berry]

so 30 warps per full charge

[wet sigil]

Personally I think warp fuel isn't the biggest deal, you can use antimatter reactors for fuel and just setup a galactic trade terminal at your freighter to get material for the anti matter housing

[stuck berry]

this can be increased to 40 warps per full charge with supercharging, or using a corvette with zenith class reactors

the latter itself can be supercharged to achieve 60 warps per charge, probably the most efficient possible

[solar osprey]

my mission is telling me to destroy depots but there isnt actually a marker or anything there when i look towards it. The little icon js straight up vanishes can anyone help?

[gaunt radish]

thats cuz u re like

right next to it

if im correct

[stuck berry]

Possibly follow this guidance #nms-questions message, some bugs are still remaining that should be patched in the next patch/update (they're already patched in Steam Experimental)

[pearl plinth]

It's a known bug at the moments, I'm getting it a lot, even with Monolith, Processor Plant etc. markers; when you get close and it disappears, for now just stop turn away slightly till you pick it up in your view again and follow slowly till it disappears the head in that direction until you land on it.

[oak cloud]

I'm trying to play NMS on the switch 2 away from an internet connection but the game keeps wanting me to connect to the Internet with constant console pop-ups, is there a way to fix this? I did enable crossing saving a bit ago, could that be the issue?

[stuck berry]

This is a bug with the current version, should be fixed with the next patch (it's already fixed in the Steam Experimental version)

not sure of any workarounds though that don't involve connecting to the internet in some way, or waiting for HG to release the patch

[oak cloud]

Well I hope that patch comes soon

Thanks for the help though!

[loud cobalt]

Hello new to NMS

I have found an another ship from distress signal.... Now the problem is i have 2 ships to transport back to my base how can i do that?

Like send 1 one starship to base automatically and take one more with me in it.?

[narrow canyon]

Hey I recently just started playing and wanted to just travel around with people I have honestly been going ham since I got it

[tropic ginkgo]

ships can freely be switched using your quick menu as long as they're not critically damaged

[stuck berry]

Non-primary ships don't need to be worried about, you can summon owned ships freely using the quick menu

they're stored in magic nothing-space after you save and reload, or leave the system

[loud cobalt]

Never knew that

New found one... Is critically demaged but i have repaired the thruster and all and my base is in same plant...

So like should i take that demaged with me or take my primary ship?

[wet sigil]

If you repaired it's launch thrusters, you are already taking it with you

[stuck berry]

pulse engine is required too

[loud cobalt]

And what bout the one i came with..?

[plucky plinth]

Hey guys
Is it possible to see what tier the animal is before adopting it? Im trying to fill my deck for the arena battles

[stuck berry]

You must also repair it's pulse engine

[stuck berry]

Yes, aim your Analysis Visor at it in Creature Survey Mode

[loud cobalt]

I have pulse at 100 and launch thrusts at 84 also i have backup thruster in inventory

[plucky plinth]

Alright thanks so much. also do you know how to feed creatures that are flying high in the air? Even if i fly up to them with my jetpack it does not give me the option to feed

[stuck berry]

Note that if you ever have a critically damaged/unfueled starship that you want to summon but can't, just go to one of your bases and save + reload, then try again #nms-questions message

[stuck berry]

Some fauna types can't be interacted with/adopted, like birds and flying worms. Aim your Analysis Visor at the creature in Creature Survey Mode to know if you can, it will show Holo-Arena stats if you can interact with and adopt it

[plucky plinth]

ahhh okay thanks for the help

[solar osprey]

how do i find the first freighter info from gunter

nvm i took it

[stuck berry]

!faq-freighters in #nms-commands > Regular Rescue (this link #nms-questions message)

[swift sand]

just summon it to you later via on foot quick menu

[deep pier]

need 250 radon very quickly, whats the best way

[swift sand]

personally, for small amounts of gases like that, i just tend to hit a few sentinel depot buildings. easily found with an exocraft radar or secure planetary charts

[deep pier]

just found out chromatic metal + sulphurine works nicely, but thanks heaps

[loud cobalt]

got both thanks a lot guys this new one is class B so i wanted it

[swift sand]

cant see the image, but congrats on the new ship!

[loud cobalt]

thanks bro

idk why i cant directly upload an image here need to check

[swift sand]

possibly because the image doesn't have a image extension in the filename. make sure whatever you're using to copy screen buffer doesnt copy it raw

[deep pier]

also is there any point in reading all the logs in abandoned freighters?

[swift sand]

if you want to learn more about nms lore yeah, lore locations/series are scattered around, use several building types

[loud cobalt]

oki now works

[deep pier]

i was wondering why i couldnt find any heaters

they are either really small or invisible 😭

Invisible

AHU - Atomic Heating Units.

[tropic ginkgo]

oh the invisible heaters is a bug, I thought it was one of the mods I'm using
unsurprising, game introduces more bugs than mods

[inland ermine]

With how big it is, it's kind of a given

Not to mention that derelicts are years-old content and not getting any kinds of reworks lately

[deep pier]

unfortunately got myself stuck in a spot that i cant escape in the frieighter, walked over like a bench or something and now i cant get out

[stuck berry]

Is this your own freighter?

If so, go to Options > General > Reset Position in Freighter

[deep pier]

no derelict

[stuck berry]

Oh, then reload a save

[deep pier]

unfortunately means i gotta reloot the whole thing

was considering dying

oh it stole my emergency reciver

whatever

nevermind it didnt

also how do staffs work with getting one u want

[swift sand]

first, collect the parts you want to use to build a staff. then you can do staff assembly, and can even get to preview the whole thing to see appearance, starting class, supercharged slot layout, which are affected by staff head and camp used to assembly - and not have to actually build it.

moving ur character is all u need to do

thats insane lol

but for me its always purple

no matter where i stand

[swift sand]

remember to assemble+back out twice

then when you take out a part, it'll color shift

How to find high security plsnets

I need grsvitron ball

Searched 19 systems

[swift sand]

any planet with aggressive sentinels or dissonance detected on the list will have grav balls scattered around the surface

look for dissonant systems in the galaxy map instead

How to find Dissonance

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

Notes:

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

Oh okay

I found many of them

Also how to make exocraft

I have blueprints

[swift sand]

exocraft geobays can be unlocked for free from various secondary missions/quests, or using salvaged data at the anomaly

-# to view info below, enable embeds

Quality of Life: Summoning exocrafts via on foot Quick Menu

• Requirement: At one of your bases, build all the exocraft geobays you want to have for later use. They can't be built on the freighter base, other than that pick any base you like.

Then, in the future, when on any planet in the universe, the actual summoning part is done using one of these methods:

a) Build the portable Exocraft Summoning Station on the current planet, use on foot quick menu to summon desired exocraft(s), delete Exocraft Summoning Station.

b) Build the Orbital Exocraft Materializer freighter room, summon freighter to current system, use on foot quick menu to summon desired exocraft(s).

c) Install Exocraft Summoning Unit exosuit tech, use on foot quick menu to summon desired exocraft(s). Requires access to purple star systems.

looks like earth but agressive sentinels?
anyone want coord?

ill fly down to the surface in a sec

[swift sand]

always feel free to post them in #explorers-archive (see pinned post in there for guidelines). remember that many planets have sentinel pillar buildings, which can be found and used/reused to shutdown sentinels planet wide; not permanent, but yeah, can be reapplied

[deep pier]

wow it is literally earth

nice to see a planet without giant mushrooms or smth

shame about the sentinels tho

[candid aspen]

Any AZ people?

[swift sand]

find a sentinel pillar building - you can shut them down

[leaden quartz]

is there any reason I cant place a wall in this corner

[candid aspen]

Thank you

[deep pier]

yeah ig, but it would be too much of a hassle, also i normally just base on a freighter anyway

[swift sand]

probably because of the other parts that are already placed

oh yeah you were right thanks

[tulip dust]

@void crest
-# to view info below, enable embeds

<:AtlasNmscord:1269532093076078658> **Artemis Path Missions**

The main storyline The Artemis Path is composed of these missions:

1. Awakenings
2. Alone Amidst the Stars
3. Ghosts in the Machine (requires progression in Expanding the Base, a secondary quest)
4. A Leap in the Dark
5. The First Traveller
6. Patterns in Time
7. 16 / 16
8. The Purge - 16 warps in any direction. It does not require travelling to the core.
9. New Beginnings - Like the Space Anomaly mission, this will forever remain in your Log tab (even after this quest's completion).

Do not reuse portals found via the storyline to prevent bugs.

❓ For in-depth questions about these missions, ask in #nms-spoilers, or in #nms-questions with spoiler tags -- run !SpoilerTag in #bot-spam for help.

📖 Did you know? The Atlas Path and The Purge mission can be completed in tandem.

[void crest]

im at patterns in time

[swift sand]

keep going, not long now 🙂 when you're at the purge, come back and ask if there's anything you should prepare for

[void crest]

takes some time all this

is this ship good enough and like money etc?

[swift sand]

a few hours, yeah, if we focus on progressing it. there's more quests after this too, that you'll most likely also want to do

[void crest]

i think i wasted most time on just worthless stuff not the story till now

[rustic grail]

Where to find better frigates to recruit, I can only find C's and sometimes B's

I was able to find an S one time

[swift sand]

seems like a nice solar sail - but remember that we can stack upgrade modules too - that's where the power comes from

[deep pier]

arent these hard to find in freighters?

[swift sand]

actually, if you hire c-class frigates with less than 4 expeditions completed, they'll class upgrade with more and more completed expeditions, and often even become stronger than naturally acquired s-class ones

[swift sand]

we can unlock the barrel fabricator blueprint, and build that in our bases

[rustic grail]

oh, alr thanks

[void crest]

just upgrade modules bought from the space stations?

[swift sand]

yeah - remember that we can stack up to 3 upgrade modules of the same type, tech blueprints (from anomaly) dont count to that limit. also remember that save+reload restocks upgrade module shops

[deep pier]

where do u unlock em?

just anomally?

[swift sand]

yeah, sorry, in the anomaly construction research station

[deep pier]

shame its a c class but still a good find

[swift sand]

!faq-frigates has lots of info on the topic, see <#nms-commands message>, its sublinks too

[heavy field]

so......i found a guide on farming for an s class pirate ddreadnought. i did it and got a c. reloaded earlist save and it brouhgt me back to the start of me entering the system and appearing at the event. took maybe 10 attempts to realize its the same captain and a c every time. did i screw myself somehow and will have to wait another 3 hours before trying again?

[hushed saffron]

Oo resurgent class venator. You can save this system and come back when you're able to trigger freighter battles and farm it for a higher class if you want

[swift sand]

outlaw system i assume - see image

that's just rng luck, not doing anything wrong

[heavy field]

so.....the name of the captain being the same means nothing?

[swift sand]

stats get rerolled everytime you redo the battle

[swift sand]

tied to system

could be the same name but higher class

i'll give you an example on some personal numbers

usually takes me 10-30 reloads on outlaw to get a s-class drop

[heavy field]

ohhh gotcha. that and the fact that it was 7 frigates in the fleet every time made me think that it would be stick at a c, but the random numbers and the price tag would differ

thanks for clearing that up

[swift sand]

yeah, you're doing good, no worries

good luck 🍀

[heavy field]

thanks. at least its simple enough. my phase arrays make quick work of it

[hushed saffron]

I cast "next try is a high class freighter" 🔥

[heavy field]

I cast "eternal C class"!

[swift sand]

heh, yeah, now that they "complained" about it

[heavy field]

XD

[hushed saffron]

What have you done

[heavy field]

the demand of the sentinels

lmao. gl

[wet sigil]

Just your average outlaw farming experience

[deep pier]

wow ok, bubbles + infested + agressive sentinels

[heavy field]

what do the bubbles even do?

[deep pier]

evil

[swift sand]

cosmetic, denote no hazardous storms/bubble storms

[heavy field]

ahhh

well, time to farm for an s class.....luckily pirate ones are free

[deep pier]

how do u farm em?

and u think 95m would be enough to get it?

[wet sigil]

you pretty much save scum them

[hushed saffron]

Set up a base computer in a system adjacent to the one the freighter is in. Then, when you have the conditions met such that your next warp will trigger a freighter battle, go to this base and save the game. Then, warp to the system with your desired freighter and trigger the fight. Save the freighter and land on it, using your analysis visor to check the class of the freighter from the hangar. If its not what you want, reload your restore point from outside the system and try again. Rince an repeat until getting a desired class. DO NOT save the game in the freighter's system if at all possible until buying it.

[deep pier]

does it matter if ive already bought one in the system? if i come back after the cooldown?

[swift sand]

s-class capital will cost up to 178M if normal mode

[deep pier]

k

[swift sand]

nope, can be the same system

[deep pier]

sick

[hushed saffron]

If you already have a freighter make sure to take all cargo and tech out of it before buying the new one

[deep pier]

cant rename the system because this guy found it already

[hushed saffron]

(Storage containers 0 - 9 transfer, dont worry about them)
(Take out the matter beam last or not at all because it will stop you from accessing your freighter inventory)

[deep pier]

yeah i realised after i bought the first resurgance i had like a bunch of frigate fuel but not THAT much

[hushed saffron]

Lol

Good luck in your farming

[hushed saffron]

By the way, can you save scum for freighters in a corvette as getting out of the seat saves the game?

[swift sand]

you can, but gotta work with reloading autosave instead

[hushed saffron]

Ah

Doesnt the game autosave like every minute or smth

[dense sapphire]

Im so sad i got a sentinel ship but its not fuel efficient like my solar

So i csnt use it slot

[hushed saffron]

With enough upgrades fuel efficiency won't even matter 🤩

[swift sand]

if we moved recently, yes - so you wait for it to update mid battle, exit seat, aim visor at freighter to see stats, then quickly reload autosave (to go back before restore point was updated)

[deep pier]

landing fuel is so free now with envoys

[dense sapphire]

How to upgrade fuel efficieny

[brave tangle]

So I looked up on youtube white and gold living ship and then hatched the void egg, when I then went to the planet and the right coords The ship wasn’t there i’m on switch 1 can someone help pls

[swift sand]

stack 3 s-class pulse engine and hyperdrive upgrade modules

[wet sigil]

This is the fastest way I have found to roll for freighters

Req: a corvette, and several minutes of patience.

Steps:

1. Get your corvette out into space next to the star you want to roll freighters on.

2. Get out of your seat. This will make an restore point for you

3. Wait inside your corvette while outside of your seat for a few minutes. This will cause the game to make an autosave point for you.

4. Once you have both points, you are ready.

5. Warp to the freighter system to trigger the freighter fight.

6. Get out of your seat. (Yes, this will overwrite your restore point, but it's not what we are relying on.

7. Go your loading bay, open the door and fly out of the space. Then turn around in space so that the freighter(s) is(are) in your sight.

8. Use visor to check their class.

9. If it is not your desired class, reload the autosave, this will place you back at the previous system before you warped.

10. Repeat until freighter of satisfactory rank has been obtained. Once you find it, get back into your corvette seat and do the fight as normal.

[dense sapphire]

Also where to get geobays

[hushed saffron]

Ah very nice. Definitely saving this

[swift sand]

type !faq-livingship in #nms-commands , see "getting additional ships" link - we cant target specific coordinates when running the full quest

[brave tangle]

ok

[dense sapphire]

Wherte to get geobay blueprint

[hushed saffron]

Geobays can be unlocked from the construction terminal in the anomaly

[brave tangle]

ohhh so I should move my other void eggs

[hushed saffron]

Along with special tech like autocharging launch thrusters and hyperdrive upgrades from the other vendors in the same area

[swift sand]

you'd not want to have multiples in your inventory to avoid having multiples activate, right

[dense sapphire]

Whats the difference between sentijel ships and norm ships

[deep pier]

u can tp to bases w no teleporter right?

[hushed saffron]

Yes

Any claimed base computer can be teleported to

Though of course you need a built terminus to teleport away

[wet sigil]

Different handling characteristics, in atmosphere speed is the highest, and has alternative fuel sources for its launcher (gravity well), pulse drive (luminescence drive) and warp drive (crimson core).

Also its warp drive gives it a 600 LY baseline warp range instead of 100LY of say fighters (not sure about the other ship types), but they still fall short of other ships like explorers

[hushed saffron]

Sentinels are also the only ships besides corvettes that can hover in place in atmosphere

[dense sapphire]

Which do u guys prefer corvets sentinel or norm

[deep pier]

gonna make a base in that system w the freighter

[wet sigil]

I personally prefer sentinel, because they come in very small sizes, Corvette is my distant second, but I still use it since killing ships is its specialty and its mission board is highly useful.

I don't use any of the other ship types since they don't offer enough over sentinel for what I want them to do.

[dense sapphire]

Also csn anyone guife me which exocraft to get

[errant moth]

Personally I always use the corvette, unless a new update happens making corvettes have really bad bugs (happens a lot), then I switch to exotic or sentinel

[deep pier]

any diff between the resurgent and a generic s class pirate freighter>

[errant moth]

Other than design, not really

[deep pier]

cool

and the star destroyer ones have no bs spire thing near the exit to bump into like the sentinel ones

all i need now is a good multi

tool

[wet sigil]

You can get all of them, you don't have to choose one, but there are content that's basically locked behind the colossus (waste disposal), and another quest involves another exocraft somewhat (minotaur), I personally use the pilgrim (the bike) and nomad (the hovercraft) the most.

[dense sapphire]

Okay

[errant moth]

Also nautilon, it's heavily involved in the quest introducing it

[wet sigil]

that too

[errant moth]

(And better for exploring deep oceans than like, anything else lol)

[dense sapphire]

Wish we could see tpp aircraft cuz i wanna see it change shape

[wise reef]

Did Pirate Dreadnoughts stop dropping S-class Freighter Modules? The last 2-3 I destroyed the shield gens / fuel rods on did not drop one. I did destroy the engines first to keep them from running, maybe that's why?

[swift sand]

must blow it up leaving engines intact

[wise reef]

ok it is the engines then

[swift sand]

you'll have enough time still

[wise reef]

I got so used to making them surrender, I just do it on autopilot now 😛

[quick coral]

What upgrades should I get for my suit or multitool

[swift sand]

some suggestions <#nms-questions message>

[quick coral]

thank you

[wide onyx]

is the infraknife the best starship tech? the dps is soo high

[wide onyx]

the module that adds another chamber does insane damage too

[analog scroll]

"Best" is the one you like the most

[wide onyx]

true

whens the next community expedition btw

[analog scroll]

We don't know. Whenever HG releases one

[swift sand]

yeah, infra is most likely the best overall single weapon in the game, but it's also a matter of gameplay preference. fact is, with high enough fire rate, infra doesnt really care what it's hitting.

[wide onyx]

oh

[wide onyx]

yea i have some decent upgrades

mid-game with 1.5k per hit and rly fast fire rate

that paired with rocket launchers after enemy sheilds are melted downs ships so fast

[swift sand]

it just melts. to give you an example of gameplay preference, i prefer that 1-shot from positron ejector, or that blaster feeling from photon cannon. feels more satisfying to me. plus, i dislike how infra sfx audio clips.

[wide onyx]

yea

true

i like sending a few fast shots to keep ship sheilds from regening

for me infraknife does that rly well

js sending a few

[swift sand]

gentle reminder about phase beam's shield leeching, and phase beam+corvette brokenness

[heavy field]

well, i got my s class pirate dreadnought. i have a question though. how do i get more tech slots in it?

[analog scroll]

Cargo bulkhead items earned from piracy, missions, or guild emissaries

[heavy field]

oh thats not just storage? thanks

[analog scroll]

Can be cargo or tech, like any inventory expansion unit

[swift sand]

can also type !faq-inventory in #nms-commands , see sublinks for more drop sources/infos

[wide onyx]

salvaged frigate modules im pretty sure

for increasing the storage and tech slots

[swift sand]

(that's for research)

bulkheads are required for inventory upgrade

[wide onyx]

oh

alr

what is a caustic nightmare planet 😔

filled with worms

[swift sand]

infested subtype toxic biome

[wide onyx]

yea i saw one

its weird

[swift sand]

sometimes weird color filters on them too

[west apex]

hey bk wsp, do you know which tech modules I should use for my multitool?

[analog scroll]

The ones that benefit the main tech you choose to use on said multi tool

[west apex]

which main tech should I chose?

choose*

[wet sigil]

I'd experiment with them and see whichever you like best

[analog scroll]

Whatever you like the most. There's no "best"

[wide onyx]

are alien multitools rare? they look kind alive

[west apex]

Which main techs do you use?

[wet sigil]

They are not the most common

I see them... maybe 1 in 20 space stations, in a hand wavey way?

[wide onyx]

cool

[swift sand]

@west apex since we can easily switch between tools in the quick menu (and if on pc, even through hotkeys), a lot of players go with having multiple tools, built for different activities: combat, mining, scanning, or perhaps mining+scaning - filling up the rest of the slots with utility techs e.g. survey device. then there's also the topic of supercharged slots, and SC slot layouts, and what you're building a multitool for. some SC layouts are better suited for some techs+their upgrade modules. in general, when it comes to SC'ing weapons, you want to supercharge first the core tech, and if using more than 1 SC slot for that weapon, SC upgrade modules. check !faq-multitoollayout in #nms-commands

[west apex]

sc is?

[swift sand]

see this image: you may want to experiment with "switching multitool pools"

[swift sand]

supercharged

[west apex]

ah ok

[swift sand]

the purple tech slots

[west apex]

ok got it

so for combat, which tech parts should I pick?

[swift sand]

see image; additionally, i'd suggest some techs from the anomaly mt research npc, regardless of what primary weapon you're going with: paralysis mortar and voltaic amplifier.

feel free to post a screenshot of the tool you're working with, if you'd like some tips

[west apex]

here it is, should I find a s tier instead?

[west apex]

I can just portal into a station and pick one up right?

with money ofc

[swift sand]

with a few changes to this, you could make it a little better. tell us, what's your favorite weapon out of all those? blaze javellin, boltcaster, neutron cannon, plasma launcher (? even though i dont see the core tech installed, i think i see two x-class plasma launcher modules installed?)

[lunar wren]

What is the rarest item in the Game? I want to have rare items to colekt

[analog scroll]

With the scale and scope of the game, nothing is all that rare

Other than things that were exclusive to older expeditions

[lunar wren]

Foto to know sadly I only Play since 1 year

Good

[west apex]

I honestly don't know, can you give a suggestion for me

[wide onyx]

my planet has a sentinel pillar, i will raid it if royal tools are good, are they??

[analog scroll]

Most planets have sentinel pillars (more than one), but not all pillars will have a royal tool

They share stats with experimental tools. If you like them, they're great

[swift sand]

well, you may have to system hop for a while, be sure to focus on visiting t3 eco or outlaw systems, though i'd probably suggest t3, because of that higher drop chance on a-class - meaning that it should take less time to find a a-class cabinet with 3 supercharged slots already revealed and hopefully with a more decent layout. the SC layout of this tool, lends itself to being a all rounder: your 3 sc slots are spread apart, so you could use 1 for scanning, another for mining, and another for damage (but that doesn't really go well with having so many weapons installed).

that said, you can do a better job with just your current tool, rearrange it better.

in order to truly see what a weapon can do, we must focus on it when building. for example, a "maxed" out neutron cannon is a thing of beauty, but so is a maxed out boltcaster. so, it comes down to preference. what do you feel is more satisfying? a shotgun? a smg? a burst rifle? one of the other options?

[west apex]

t3 is?

[lunar wren]

They Are Good

[wide onyx]

alr ill try to find one for fun

[dense sapphire]

Is discovering a planet rare

[analog scroll]

No

[west apex]

also, doesn't s-class exist why am I not going for that?

[analog scroll]

Finding a planet discovered by someone else is far more rare than discovering one yourself

[analog scroll]

Because they're rare and A class would be easier to locate

[dense sapphire]

How do u play with friends

[west apex]

I see

[swift sand]

to hunt for royals, you only need to check 1 pillar per planet, no need to reload - if there's a royal on the planet's pool, it will always immediately override any other tool on the underlying pool. save+reload on diff planets in the system will still present a royal on every pillar on that planet, just with different color schemes (cc @analog scroll )

[swift sand]

aka 3 star

[analog scroll]

Exchange friend codes. One person starts via Play Game, others join via Join Friends. Have to be on the same save version and there are some things to look out for

[west apex]

ok ty

[west apex]

so Im looking for a A class with 3 supercharges?

[real marten]

is someone here who was blueprints from expedition 20?

[analog scroll]

#nms-lfg-or-trades might be a better place to ask

[real marten]

oh sorry

[analog scroll]

No problem, just pointing out a better way to get them in-game

[west apex]

also can't I use https://nmsce.com/ to find that?

[swift sand]

nr of supercharged slots is defined by class: C1 B2 A3 S4. an a-class cabinet isnt always guaranteed to have more than 0 supercharged slots revealed at the start, though it's rarer to encounter such cases. usually, an a-class cab will have 2, 3 supercharged slots already revealed, which means that you have a better glimpse of what that tool might be better suited for, if there's any SCs in adjacent slots. ofc, a b-class cabinet would also work, but that means a higher cost to get the tool upgrade to s-class. try to follow this flowchart:

[west apex]

ok tysm

[swift sand]

also, one might need to add more tech slots to reveal hidden SC

[west apex]

can I not use nmsce.com to locate one tho?

[swift sand]

sure

i was just explaining how to solo hunt

[west apex]

ok

[west apex]

ok ty

Im looking for a riffle right?

[swift sand]

first, you're looking for a high class cabinet - the class is fixed per cabinet, regardless of what tool "you" spawn there

[west apex]

ok got it thanks

[swift sand]

@west apex second, you're looking for a mt type you want to use, and like the looks of: any tool can be setup to do any job

for example, innate bonus doesn't show that you can install mining beam core tech side by side with hijacked laser on sentinel tools, buffing it by a lot, mostly making you forget that you're not using an atlantid

but you may like aliens more - they can't do what i just described above, like sentinels can, but they're perfectly good miners, good damage dealers, good scanners - scanner innate bonus doesnt affect rewards, only quick scan pulse range

in fact, you may have sentinels that are weaker in innate bonuses than an alien of the same class - and btw, looks within types are just mainly that, looks (besides some small differences on starting inventory size)

[tranquil dawn]

Is there a way you can do old expeditions because I am trying to get some expedition creatures

[supple goblet]

Hi, does giant only appear in purple system? Like normal giant

[shell ridge]

On pc there is a website to rerun past expeditions. It in the pins in the #nms-modding channel.

[dense sapphire]

Anyone wanna do coop

[shell ridge]

Wow, I never realized the innate scan trait listed in this chart only applied to the recharge rate.

[supple goblet]

Uhmm, may i ask, is there any base amount limit, like 2 bases per galaxy?

[dense sapphire]

I dont think so

[shell ridge]

400 base computers per save.

[split sleet]

Do someone know if crossplay is working between PC and PS5 ? Every time i get a "bad version" message ?

[dense sapphire]

Oh

[supple goblet]

Oh woah oki ty

[hushed saffron]

Try asking around in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[surreal gull]

When in the anomaly in the egg sequencer, does it take from your storage in-base (I just got everything sorted on the boxes sob) or does it have to be in your exosuit/ship/freighter/car inventory?

[clear anvil]

prolly version mismatch due to the recent update

[visual terrace]

How do you turn off autopilot on the Minotaur?

[shell ridge]

But there are also part limits per save and per base. So not every base could be a mega city build.

[shell ridge]

From the quick action menu.

[surreal gull]

On PC you press X, go to the cog, its in there. "Enable/disable minotaur AI"

[split sleet]

There has been a recent update ? PS5 is late ?

[supple goblet]

Oh... Oki, tyyyyy 🙂

[clear anvil]

steam and gog version released less than 2 hrs ago

consoles will follow eventually

[split sleet]

Ok tks ! Do you have an idea of how long it will take to get to console?

[supple goblet]

Im on steam, does it auto update?

[inland ermine]

Usually

[clear anvil]

no clue as the updating process on consoles depends largely on the console companies

[supple goblet]

Oki, ty :>

[split sleet]

ok ok tks for the infos !

[inland ermine]

No way to tell when the update will reach consoles as their respective studios need to verify the files on their own first

Doesn't take long usually though

[swift sand]

try double checking library>game>updates

[supple goblet]

Oko, checking it now XD ty

@analog scroll @clear anvil ty, is it one time use item?

[clear anvil]

yup

[astral wadi]

my mouse bugging out rn only for nms, any fixes?

its not a sensitivity issue

[stone carbon]

does every planet have a wild base computer on it or is it completely random?

[swift sand]

had someone here yesterday with a similar issue. could be some vsycing issue, could be an issue with the software mouse uses, a dpi/polling rate issue, perhaps other input methods currently connected. does it go away if you use a controller, a different mouse, or clean boot windows (not a reinstall, see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows-da2f9573-6eec-00ad-2f8a-a97a1807f3dd)?

[supple goblet]

Uh, the planet is gud but the animals here r like walking leaves, is this normal? Like the fauna looks like walking flora

[swift sand]

yes, afaik there's always at least 1 per planet, more than 1 in fact

[astral wadi]

controller is fine.

[stone carbon]

the hunt begins

[swift sand]

sounds like you found a planet with plantcats that walk on their hind legs

this one's not biped, but it's a plantcat anyway

[lost raptor]

Do Glyphs have an assigned number? I need a chart if they do.

[swift sand]

see image

[astral wadi]

oh god im getting 2 fps in game now

i have a 4070 this shouldnt happen

[stone carbon]

that happens to me, do you have frame generation on?

[astral wadi]

no

[stone carbon]

hmm

I usually lower my graphical settings and it fixes it

[astral wadi]

my pc is on performance mode

[astral wadi]

all graphics settings are on low

[lost raptor]

Wow. Ty

[stone carbon]

bump them up a tier, i know it sounds crazy but it sometimes works for me

my fps always gets destroyed when im at the anomaly and changing anything in my graphical settings sometimes fixes it

[swift sand]

push them to high or ultra

apply and restart game

then warp to a diff system and retest

[supple goblet]

Damn, i even faced a sentinel AT-AT here... Bro is so tank XD

[swift sand]

walker? shoot the legs first 🙂

[astral wadi]

guys it worked ty

[supple goblet]

Oh, i keep shoot the eye XD

[swift sand]

yeah, go for legs first, you'll see what happens hehe

[supple goblet]

He looks all skin and bone XD

[indigo lion]

is there a limit to how many bases we can have? i kinda wanna go thru all the galaxies and make atleast 1 base in each one XD and additional question to this if anyone knows. why is there a galaxy that they locked us away from entering normally

[swift sand]

400 base computers per character, 21k save wide parts limit. basically, odyalutai was the last galaxy people could reach back in the day, and when they introduced more galaxies, they probably didnt want to remove access to players who had already gotten there. changing galaxies back then, we couldnt go back to previous galaxies.

[indigo lion]

that sucks cause if i wanna get there to only way is to get a taxi

[swift sand]

or save editing if on pc, yeah

that said, it's just another norm type galaxy

[indigo lion]

of i didnt see that as an option cool.

it is populated at all? like maybe people go there since its uniquely hard to reach?

[swift sand]

yeah, i've known many a player who had a base there

[indigo lion]

i picked green last night so im currently in paradise heaven (eissantam)

[swift sand]

not hard to reach i guess, but i understand the point

well, impossible to reach solo, with in game ways

[indigo lion]

thats what i mean.

the only way is to find another person and no everyone plays this mp some mod it offline.

[swift sand]

yeah, it just doesnt really "count" anymore i guess, since it's out of the loop

but feel free to submit feedback to the devs ofc

[indigo lion]

would be cool if they in the future gave is a questline to get back there or smth idk XD

what is a miasmatic planet?

[hard cosmos]

Anyone know how to get portal glyphs ?? I got one and two

Finishing the story will get you all of them, and is required to access autophage content or purple star systems

[hard cosmos]

Okay ty

[worldly sable]

Hello people, just downloaded the game to play with a friend that is on ps5, and I'm playing on PC. We don't have the same version of the game, I'm on 4215 and she's on 4213. is there an easy way, or any way at all, to fix this and be able to play with her???

[analog scroll]

PS5 is an update behind

[indigo lion]

Rip.

[worldly sable]

Yes I know but is there a way for me to play and older version of the game?

[indigo lion]

blame sony

[worldly sable]

😢

[gray shoal]

Get day one physical copy and dont update?

Thats only thing that comes to mind

[worldly sable]

Aight, so I can't force steam to launch an older version of the game. Can I force steam to NOT update the game so I can still play it with my friend until she gets the same version on PS5?

[gray shoal]

Maybe ? Not sure. Im no pc player.

[worldly sable]

😔

Well if any pc player comes across my message, please answer 🙂

[silver pollen]

I think you can force it to not update.

On the steam library page for it, see if the update button has an arrow. You click that and might be able to play without the update

[worldly sable]

That's good to know, I'll try it next update 😄

[analog scroll]

No, you cannot run an older version and be online. If you're online, Steam will force the update. Sony will get the update, just be patient. It's coming out for everyone

[sterile thistle]

What's the deal with factions ?

[analog scroll]

What do you mean?

[worldly sable]

So I could just start the game while being offline and the turn internet back on

[sterile thistle]

Seems like they are around but not really ?

[analog scroll]

Do you mean the guilds? There is 1 guild per region

[worldly sable]

How often do updates drop? I really want to play the game soooooo bad

[sterile thistle]

Player made guilds

[bitter crypt]

Roughly 2-3 months apart

[analog scroll]

Bugfixes come when they are released, whenever HG decides the fixes are stable enough for release

[worldly sable]

Oh okay, and people are saying the lastest update dropped this morning?

[analog scroll]

Nothing official in-game

[bitter crypt]

No, it was a patch

The latest update was a few weeks ago

Mid-April, iirc

[analog scroll]

That was a bugfix release, yes. Major releases every 2-3 months, as said

[sterile thistle]

I've seen acouple mentions of recruiting and was wondering what was up with that and how it works ingame

[analog scroll]

Unofficial, managed by whomever organizes it

[worldly sable]

Let me rephrase that, how often does the version of the game change?

[bitter crypt]

There is no in-game mechanic for player factions

[tropic ginkgo]

nothing is preventing both of you from playing the game even if on different versions, you just won't be able to join each other (which is buggy in certain activities anyway) or see each other until the game updates to the same version on both platforms

[sterile thistle]

I see so basically nonsense

[worldly sable]

cuz i don't want to not be able to play the game every week 🙁

[bitter crypt]

Major releases every 2-3 months, and usually bug fixes every week for about 2-3 weeks following that, typically

[analog scroll]

There's no fixed schedule. It depends on how many bugs are found in each update

[bitter crypt]

in my experience, at least

[worldly sable]

and the ps5 updates usually comes out how many days after pc, if you happen to know?

[bitter crypt]

We do not

[worldly sable]

😭

[bitter crypt]

That's up to Sony and their certification process

[analog scroll]

Typically same day, can be days later though. It's up to Sony

[worldly sable]

okay, thanks for your answers guys

[analog scroll]

#nms-news-ticker will have an update when the PS4/5 update is released

[wide onyx]

whats the absolute best way of grinding S class and exotic ships?

[analog scroll]

There's 1 exotic model in every single populated system. S class is dependent on system economy. The only sure way to see either is to go somewhere ships land (space station or trade post) and wait

[fresh birch]

I put together a staff and I really like the color/look but it’s only A class. Will this hinder me in the long run or is the difference negligible?

[analog scroll]

You can upgrade the class with nanites

[fresh birch]

So just go with fashion over function? lol

Thank you

[astral wadi]

can someone pls tell me how mineral hotspots work?

i thought you had to use autonomous mining units but nope

also how do you tell the class?

[hushed saffron]

Mineral (and gas and electromagnetic) hotspots are like invisible cylinders where you can harvest bulk quantities of a resource. After finding one with an analysis visor, you can place harvesters (unlocked in the anomaly from the construction research terminal) there and power them to harvest resources. The higher the concentration (closer to the center of the hotspot), the more resources it produces.
You can see the class in the analysis visor off to the side after it analyzes the hotspot, as well as see the concentration where you're standing.

Higher class hotspots have higher concentrations and need less harvesters per network to achieve maximum output (and have better output overall)

[astral wadi]

oh i got it thank you. its only a c class 😭

[hushed saffron]

For most uses, even a B class is generally sufficient

Oh analysis visor also shows what mineral or gas the hotspot has, even before scanning it i believe

[astral wadi]

yeah its gold, thats what i wanted

i just want to make money

[hushed saffron]

Fair lol

You might want a higher class then

[ivory wagon]

With this patch is only steam or gog and Microsoft store pc running too

[hushed saffron]

Note that you should create separate harvester networks to avoid diminishing returns. As you add more harvesters to the same network (which are made by connecting harvesters OR supply depots with supply pipes or having them too close to each other), they produce less and less individually starting at a network production of 1000 units an hour i believe. Placing harvesters and depots on top of each other is far enough to make separate networks.
S class hotspots only need about 2 or 3 harvesters per network, placed on or very close to the center of the hotspot.

[astral wadi]

alright, but it WILL run out eventually though?

[hushed saffron]

No, hotspots are infinite

[astral wadi]

oh sweet ok

[hushed saffron]

These same principles apply to gas and electromagnetic hotspots as well, though im pretty sure electromagnetic hotspots don't have diminishing returns so slap as many of those puppies down as you want

[analog scroll]

They do not have diminishing returns, you are correct

[hushed saffron]

Unlimited power >:D

[digital badge]

Can anyone let me know if the issue with the slow moving flying cigar-shaped fauna being counted as discovered after scanning is resolved yet please? Thanks in advanced. I bug reported it three times, already and was still bugged in latest experimental.

[astral wadi]

lets gooo i got one

[hushed saffron]

Nice

[dense sapphire]

Guys whats a popular system and 2ndly how do i find it

[bitter crypt]

You could check the pins in the #nmscord-hub channel for our server hub system

[digital badge]

Galaxy wise I like the lush ones... Like 10 Eissentam - Just go to the Space Anomaly, and go to the Universal Portal in the back to go straight there off one of the Community Highlights.

[dense sapphire]

Oka

Cant find it

[analog scroll]

You can't find the Anomaly? Summon it, assuming you have it unlocked

[dense sapphire]

No not that

The server hub

[analog scroll]

Pin in #nmscord-hub should have glyph coordinates and galaxy, but you will have to have glyphs unlocked to get there

[dense sapphire]

How to get glyphs

[analog scroll]

Finishing the story is both the most straightforward way AND is required to access Autophage and Purple System content

[dense sapphire]

Oh so i am way back

Sad

[digital badge]

The story and progression through Autophage etc is really fun at least.

[dense sapphire]

Story is long tho

[indigo lion]

referring to that have these camps always ||Had these people i havent been able to see the whole time?||

[tiny vortex]

people......question:
how do you join friends in this game???
i did it once by chance i think.

Cause i played once with this friend and now i cant see his session to join him....

[digital badge]

Been playing since launch, tell me about it 😂 - Just wait till youve visited all 256 galaxies and build 4 S class settlements etc...

[tiny vortex]

he is on my list, im on his, he is playing with multiplayer enables, me too

[dense sapphire]

Wanna have a session

Emerosky

[tiny vortex]

yes but i was about to play with a friend i havent played in a long while

[dense sapphire]

Well go ahead

😉

[tiny vortex]

i wish i COULD

[dense sapphire]

Then /w me?

[tiny vortex]

im honored that the skull knight wants to play but i really wanna try and fix my problem right now, so we could maybe later my man

[dense sapphire]

Sure

Youve read berk?

[iron coral]

any1 know what this is

[dense sapphire]

Guys can the launch auto charger work on sentinal ships

[gray shoal]

Check for update

[iron coral]

idk how too on xbox

[gray shoal]

Xbox dont have latest update yet. Only pc atm

[iron coral]

oh

[gray shoal]

Probably thats why u cant connect

[iron coral]

any idea when it might update?

[analog scroll]

Soon

[gray shoal]

In few days hopefuly

[dense sapphire]

Guys? Doesn launch recharger work on sentinal shio

[analog scroll]

It does

[swift sand]

did the friend double check their in save options/network settings? is mp enabled, are others i.e. you allowed to join in "who can join my group"? have they added your friend code? have you added theirs? have you tried to completely restart both games? host should load char via play game, guest waits in main menu/join friends

@tiny vortex also, can both of you see other players walking around in the anomaly?

[humble raven]

Steam gets the updates first. Then consoles and then GOG. I have a friend who I play with (he's on GOG) and we can't play the day an update launches.

[iron coral]

whats gog

[gray shoal]

Good old games

[analog scroll]

GOG got the update just after Steam today

[gray shoal]

Digital Game shop like steam

But they sell games without drm

[silver pollen]

What is drm

[analog scroll]

Digital Rights Management

[swift sand]

iow, can install and run game completely offline

[gray shoal]

Digital right menagement

Basicaly cant take away your game if the shop gets closed. U dont loose access to it. U "own" the product u bought.

[hushed saffron]

Oh, that's handy

[tawdry urchin]

how do i access the gas planets 😭 I thoguht i talked to the autophag but perhap not

[bitter crypt]

It's not part of the autophage questline

[tawdry urchin]

no ik but one has to do the autophage questline to get to it righ?

[bitter crypt]

You complete "In Stellar Multitudes", which must be unlocked by the autophage questline, and completing the atlas path

[tawdry urchin]

so is this not cleared? and what does it mean to want a wonder

[bitter crypt]

You did complete the atlas path there yes

Did you complete "In Stellar Multitudes"?

[tawdry urchin]

I dont think ive seen it yet

[bitter crypt]

It should fire after you pulse for a while, in a system other than the one you completed the autophage questline in

[tawdry urchin]

idk what system that was lol

[bitter crypt]

You're probably safe then. Also fyi, it won't show as a primary quest

How to get started with Worlds Part 2 Content

📖 Warning Purple systems are considered End-Game content as of 5.50, as such you are required to finish a certain amount of the game before you can access them

1. Complete the Artemis Path (the main story of the game)

• !faq-artemispath in #nms-commands will show the steps

2. Complete the Atlas Path (Atlas Eternal needs to be in your mission log)
3. Find a Harmonic Camp and release the multi tool seal

• !faq-interceptor in #nms-commands will show you how to find them

4. Warp to trigger They Who Returned, complete the Autophage missions
5. Return to Space and pulse until hailed
6. New Mission In Stellar Multitudes should trigger
7. Finish the mission completely to reveal all purple systems on the galaxy map.

BEFORE YOU START it would be a good idea to craft 1 Living Glass

Once you start In Stellar Multitudes, DO NOT warp far from the initial system. You will need to return to it to get to your revealed Purple system. If you have to leave, leave via the Space Station Teleporter in the system with the Atlas Station!

Shared by: tyndall_ Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[tawdry urchin]

how would i check if i completed it? an item or smthn?

[bitter crypt]

purple systems on the map

or the autophage questline?

[analog scroll]

Can you craft the head of the voltaic staff?

Specifically the head

Also in your catalog under races, do you see the Autophage? If so, what is listed?

[tawdry urchin]

i see dissonant systems, not autophage race

[analog scroll]

Then you haven't started or completed They Who Returned. Start at step 3 of the FAQ above

[tawdry urchin]

figured as much but i do remember mining altnidium for the harmonic

[dense sapphire]

Does summoning freighter cost hyperfuel

[tawdry urchin]

wait so maybe i should talk to the one in the anomaly

[analog scroll]

No, you should do the mission. It's the only way to move on to the next step

[plush moat]

i just got my first living ship but it wont let me install mz hyperdrive upgrade ermil and indium one is this a bug or intended ?

[tawdry urchin]

i dont see the misison in log tho

[analog scroll]

Living ships have their own specific upgrades

[analog scroll]

Start at Step 3 #nms-questions message

[tawdry urchin]

they have their own unique versions of mechanicl counterparts

[plush moat]

how do i get those ?

[vernal nacelle]

yep, genarly obtained from freghter expi is how i get them

[plush moat]

ok

[analog scroll]

!faq-livingship in #nms-commands will tell you how. The Singularity Cortex (living ship hyperdrive) is already capable of traveling to Y/R/G/B systems

[vernal nacelle]

what about purple? never tried that before....

[analog scroll]

The Atlantid drive (and the mission to unlock them) is still needed

[vernal nacelle]

awww

glad that i have the matirals

[indigo lion]

Will HG EVER fix freighter bugs? or do they just ignore them on purpose at this point? its gotten to the point i basically cant even use my frieghter anymore. i cant go thru any door at all i cant walk down a hall with any door attached to it. its just completely broken and seems to just get worse the longer you use said freighter. been tryna deal with it but its got to the point in cant even walk a few feet outside of the bridge area.

[analog scroll]

Reset the interior and rebuild it. Make sure you don't have any mods. I don't have any of those issues in any freighter I've owned

it has no problem with normal halls. but the second i put a door to a room. i suddenly cant walk down the hall past the door. i get stuck. and i cant even walk into the door.

[analog scroll]

What door are you trying to use? The only one I can think of goes outside, not into a room

[indigo lion]

the normal door?

[analog scroll]

Never used that for internal doors, I just let the rooms be open

[indigo lion]

and wb doors to outside

[analog scroll]

I have used that bulkhead door to go outside

[indigo lion]

you say that like theres other options...

[dense sapphire]

Bro

I finally saved artemis

[analog scroll]

I haven't ever used the bulkhead door for interior use. I didn't even realize that you could use it on the interior, though your issues suggest that you might not be able to

[analog scroll]

You think 😉

[dense sapphire]

I quit.

[indigo lion]

so why the fuck would they add exterior catwalks if we arent meant to get to them? like what?

[dense sapphire]

🥲

[analog scroll]

That's what I mean. I've used the bulkhead door to go from an inside hall to an outside catwalk. I've done that since Endurance with no issues. I have never used it to go from an inside cooridor to an inside room

[indigo lion]

well that aint work for me

[analog scroll]

Submit a bug report

[indigo lion]

this is as close as i can get to either of these doors.

im walking in place

[dense sapphire]

Try jetpacking

[indigo lion]

nothin

[analog scroll]

Also likely depends on where you are in relation to the bridge stairs

[dense sapphire]

It happened to me

[indigo lion]

im fully blocked

[dense sapphire]

But i could jetpack

[analog scroll]

The build area is not infinite

[indigo lion]

this spot is like 3 blocks fro mthe enterance to the build area. aint no way im outside it

[shell ridge]

It doesn't look placed properly, there's a gap in the corners. Place the door in another location.
