[desert escarp]

nvm im not doing my base here lmao

is there rare to find a no bad weather, no sentinels water and floor planet and no pirates system?

[wide onyx]

i can give you cords to my old base planet after i get off school

[wide onyx]

kinda

[stuck berry]

Not really tbh

I find them every like 10th warp

[wide onyx]

im pretty sure you needs bubbles on a paradise planet to have no bad weather

[desert escarp]

im more specific to find a base

its wrong to do only 1 base tho?

[stuck berry]

not really, somewhere to be home is nice

[wide onyx]

i live like a nomad so i ignore paradise worlds 🤑

[stuck berry]

Wrong

[wide onyx]

oh

[stuck berry]

Bubble just guarantees no storms, unless extreme

[wide onyx]

cool

[stuck berry]

Standard weather always has a chance to be clear, on all biomes except gas giant

[wide onyx]

alr

[desert escarp]

i found one in my other game but had no water and no species lol

[stuck berry]

These weather names dictate the storm status you'll see

Also, lush worlds can lack storms but still have high or aggressive sentinel activity, disqualifying them from getting the Paradise Planet name

[desert escarp]

how mine got paradise but even present sentinels?

[stuck berry]

Can't, Low Sentinel Activity is required for paradise

Low Sentinel Activity means that there aren't sentinel patrols

unless you're on survival, in which even low has sentinel patrols because it's not intended to appear

[desert escarp]

what

i swear i read paradise

it does not say paradise now

im braindead

[mellow thorn]

dose anyone know how i turn my graphics down on ps5 cause myps5 is over heating like hell

[stuck berry]

Did you change difficulty options?

[desert escarp]

nope

[stuck berry]

Then it's probably the bug where some details don't show right in specific places

mainly, the point-at-and-scan of your starship being a bit wrong very rarely

it's annoying and strange

[mellow thorn]

can anyone help me

[stuck berry]

If you don't see anything of use in Options > Display & Graphics, then there isn't anything that you can change

[long pulsar]

Can I change my ship thruster color? all ships have purple

[stuck berry]

at best, improve the airflow of your PS5 by having it in the open without stuff around or on top of it

[stuck berry]

You can change the trail color, but not the thruster flame color

[long pulsar]

Thanks

[knotty crystal]

how to get echo locater

[stuck berry]

Destroy Dissonance Resonators on Dissonant worlds

20% of them contain an Echo Locator instead of an Inverted Mirror

You can see what they will drop before destroying them by walking up to them and looking at them

[knotty crystal]

ok thanks

[worldly peak]

how does cycles work on extractors? cus i have over 144 extractors with an hourly rate of 2978 but every five minutes it only produces 250?

and no matter how many more i add its stays at 5 minutes

oh if it wasnt obvious activated indium farm

[gray shoal]

Dimnishing returns hit after 1k extraction per h

[worldly peak]

thats stupid

let me build my hyper powerful factory game

[wheat cove]

To avoid the diminishing returns, have separate storage for sets of 2 extractors

[silver bluff]

I can’t find one on the cord exchange I’m looking for a two legged antelope classic deer head, ears antlers no long neck

[gray shoal]

Make seperate extractor-silo network to workaround it

[worldly peak]

oh shit fr?

[worldly peak]

oh okay bet

[wheat cove]

Yeah, it's diminishing returns for the network, not the hotspot

[gray shoal]

Extractors work in air. So u can stack them but keep few u distance to not accidentaly merge networks

[worldly peak]

i know that but it also goes down sadly

[silver bluff]

Something like this but a shorter neck and no butt wings

[worldly peak]

so what im hearing is hypothetically my farm should be making upwards of 600 million a day

also question again what percentage is needed for like 500 extract an hour

do we have a way to calculate extract/hr by percentage?

[wheat cove]

If you're extracting it to sell, gold might be better than AI

[wet sigil]

S rank at 100% iirc should be like 600 per hour

[worldly peak]

why? higher extract rate?

[wet sigil]

Higher sell price per unit

[stuck berry]

So like this?

[wheat cove]

Gold currently has the highest value of extractable ores

[desert escarp]

sorry for the late reply but i was thinking of this, what "stats" that planet have?

[worldly peak]

shit really?

whats gold ppu

[gray shoal]

Max % deposit density depends on deposit class. It does not mater much it only affects amount of extractors needed to reach 1k extraction

[silver bluff]

I saw that one the eyes are weird I want the big eyes

[gray shoal]

For S its 2 extractors when placed on 100-98%density.

[worldly peak]

ok

does anyone know or can someone check the gold ppu?

[worldly peak]

ok so 100% extract power=~500k

OH SHIT ITS LIKE DOUBLE

ight im moving the factory then

[wet sigil]

Subject to 1000u/HR diminishing returns

Basically every cluster of connected extractors have heavy diminishing returns once they hit an combined income rate of 1000u/HR, you'd have to construct multiple clusters of silos/extractors to maximise extraction (can all be on the exact same hotspot)

[worldly peak]

ok so get it as close to 1k/h extract rate per system of gold would mean 353000 per cell ar an aveage of 85 cells puts me at an hourly theoretical max of 30 million and daily theoretical max or 720 million

realistic 360 million a day at 85 cells

ok sweet time to move to a gold planet

[wheat cove]

The unit cap is 4.2b though, so it won't take you long to hit that 😅

[gray shoal]

I do 24 silo per network . Bc 24h clock

And with 1k extraction per h is easyer to calculate daily yeld

[worldly peak]

it is?

bruh

welp in that case ill stick to activated indium just cus moving would take too long and ill just optimize it

this farm is massive enough optimizing it will give me plenty of money lol

and im still gunna make a stasis farm too

[desert escarp]

what was the command to know how to farm money easily?

okay got it tysm

[burnt onyx]

I Just got a freighter what Is the fastest way tò upgrade It?

I found a B tier frigate with 43 in industrial stat Is It good?

[desert escarp]

im hella farming bones

but where should i sell them

[stuck berry]

For Salvaged Frigate Modules, the items needed to unlock technology and base building blueprints for your freighter, see #nms-questions message
For upgrade modules, which improve your fleet's expedition stats overall as well as one set of them being hyperdrive upgrades, see #nms-commands message

[wheat cove]

Note that you cannot change your freighter's class, if you want a higher class freighter you have to exchange your current one

[wide onyx]

low sentinel amount, paradise world, yellowish green grass and blue water, but can have occasional superheated storms

its alr ig

[stuck berry]

That's not a paradise then

[wide onyx]

wym?

the tag is "paradise planet"

[stuck berry]

And it has storms?

[wide onyx]

not storms js heated weather

[stuck berry]

Oh, so floating islands

[wide onyx]

no lightning and stuff

[wide onyx]

no

[stuck berry]

huh, then weird

[wide onyx]

i can send the stats after school

[stuck berry]

Barren weather is only a possibility for floating islands subbiome lush worlds

[desert escarp]

all planets have burried mineral formation?

[stuck berry]

which is the only way that a lush world can have a passive heat hazard, outside of a storm

[wide onyx]

its a normal paradise world that occasionally gets heavy rain thats superheated

[stuck berry]

No, it isn't, those are storms.

[wide onyx]

oh

[stuck berry]

"Paradise Planet/Moon" is a biome name override applied to all lush worlds that have both No Storms and Low Sentinel Activity, as well as aren't the infested/ruined subbiomes

[wide onyx]

the tag is paradise although

ill send the description soon

[stuck berry]

if it has storms with this, then the descriptor is being applied wrong which is a bug

[wide onyx]

odd ig

my new save also has a paradise moon with high sentinel activity

is that normal?

[stuck berry]

Yeah that super isn't intended

difficulty options can mess with things like this too

but the Paradise Planet descriptor is supposed to adapt to this

[wide onyx]

mine is always on normal

no changes

js the default

[stuck berry]

then idk, I've been on normal for years and haven't seen any worlds that don't match how it works in ages

you probably read it wrong, or conflated "paradise planet" with lush worlds in general, or it displays correct in one place but incorrect in another

[wheat cove]

I've definitely seen differences recently between the descriptor seen from space and when on the planet. Perhaps something has messed them up a bit?

[stuck berry]

Yeah, that's all I've observed

but I've always seen that at least one of these is correct

[wide onyx]

ill send a few pictures to help clarify

[stuck berry]

like sometimes this shows the correct stuff or smth, but other things don't

But I haven't seen one of these planets/moons that act like this in months

[wide onyx]

because im sure every time i do the house building tutorial a superheated storm appears

[stuck berry]

Oh wait, was this during the tutorial?

[wide onyx]

and after

[stuck berry]

After as in how far?

Like after your first ever time warping?

well moreso your second or third probably

The base building tutorial has scripted storms to motivate you to build a base. These occur regardless of the planet's storm presence (if it lacks storms or not)

These don't keep happening after this point though

Also: Planets in your starting system are overridden to be safer. If they have Aggressive Sentinels or Extreme Storms, they are overridden to have Low Sentinel Activity or No Storms permanently for that save only.

This system has a bug where the "true" details of the planet show up in some places, but in others you see the details pertaining to your save (the safer ones)

[worldly sable]

What do I do here??

[wide onyx]

well my second saves paradise moon has high sentinel activity, is that normall?

[stuck berry]

You're meant to use the Gravitino Coil multi-tool technology to carry these and load them into a Colossus with the flatbed, then drive them to a processing plant

[wide onyx]

aight ill send some ss

[stuck berry]

Research the Gravitino Coil blueprint at Iteration: Eos to be given the tutorial mission for this system

[stuck berry]

As all my stuff above states, no, that's not intended

[worldly sable]

I might have the gravitino coil already, that's the tool that allows to carry these items right?

[wide onyx]

isnt your first planet always a mildly harsh weather and high sentinel activity?

[worldly sable]

whats a collossus tho

[stuck berry]

Neither of those are what qualifies as too harsh

[wheat cove]

An exocraft (truck-style)

[stuck berry]

as I said, extreme weather and aggressive sentinels are counted

[wide onyx]

ok

[stuck berry]

The exocraft that's a huge truck. Research it's Geobay at the Construction Research Station aboard the space Anomaly on page 4, then build it to summon the vehicle

You may also want to research the Exocraft Radar at Iteration: Perses, this is required to locate Processing Plants and Waste Heaps using the quick menu while piloting the vehicle

[wide onyx]

is finding a planet with two robot animals mildly rare? i found a video from 2ys ago sayings its rare, idk about now

[stuck berry]

10% of worlds in uncharted systems have them, they aren't rare if you know what to look for

95% of red star systems are uncharted, so that's something easy to look in and find them

[blazing tusk]

No. The robot antelopes always come in pairs. And often time the building fauna do too

[stuck berry]

Worlds with them have 3-4 fauna species, including 2 robot antelopes and 1-2 walking buildings

[wide onyx]

one of them was those tall buildings and i think one or two antelopes

[stuck berry]

the planet's fauna reading displays "Synthetic", which can be useful when using the Scanner Room aboard your freighter

[worldly sable]

got it ! thanks

[stuck berry]

The tutorial for the Gravitino Coil/waste hauling makes you throw in one piece of scrap, which gives you the Flatbed Module to equip on your colossus at a Colossus Geobay for free

[glad vessel]

can a freighter itself be driven or can I only warp to move around?

(Not including ships you can fly in and out of the freighter or the corvette)

[stuck berry]

Cannot be piloted whatsoever, can only be warped around/summoned

Summoning via the quick menu can be done from infinite distances for free

[glad vessel]

My poor poor a class vessel

[stuck berry]

Note that your freighter is restricted in what star colors it can normally reach, similar to starships. Technology blueprint can be unlocked and installed that remove these restrictions

[glad vessel]

Is it possible to get weaponry for the Minotaur?

Like how you can add cannons to the others or flamethrowers

[wheat cove]

Yes

[stuck berry]

Yes, the Minotaur Cannon, as well as some extra technology given from the mission "A Trace of Metal"

[wet sigil]

And I think QS parts also give a weapon?

[stuck berry]

and some further extra stuff from the Quicksilver Synthesis Companion aboard the Space Anomaly, including a flamethrower arm, which were originally from Expedition 14: Liquidators

[glad vessel]

I only have like 800 quicksilver

Shit is annoying and slow to get because nobody likes going to the nexus at the same time

[wet sigil]

I do the QS missions solo and from a mission board on corvettes, sometimes I choose the ones that can be handed in straight away

e.g. the stellar metal or faecium hand ins

[glad vessel]

Say I were to play on Xbox

How do I type in chat?

Is it keyboard only?

[wet sigil]

I do not believe consoles can chat at all?

don't quote me on that though

[glad vessel]

They can use Gestures and Voice Chat but I think that’s it from what I know

It’s just gta 5 chat mechanics all over again lmao

[analog scroll]

Voice chat in groups, no text chat

[wet sigil]

Yeah text chat is what I meant, sorry for missing that crucial word

[glad vessel]

Well, yknow a lil keyboard usually pops up on a console screen to type so they could just add it

It wouldn’t be hard either, they’ve used it for years to rename things and bases

[wide onyx]

cant

[silver bluff]

how long for day to become night on a planet

[stuck berry]

The whole day/night cycle is 30 minutes I think, so I'd expect like 15 minutes

[burnt onyx]

how i get cystal sulphite?

[stuck berry]

From volcanic vents in oceans. You can identify oceans from space

[burnt onyx]

there is specific type of planet i need to search?

[stuck berry]

No, any planet that has oceans will work

[burnt onyx]

if a planet as some water will it have every time an ocean?

[stuck berry]

Pretty much

just look at different parts of it from space to identify these larger ocean areas

you can manipulate the sun in photo mode if the night-side is too dark

[burnt onyx]

ok tysm

[worldly sable]

On which kind of planets can I find those balls that give a LOT of fungi when I break them?

[desert escarp]

do i waste launch trusters % when i call a ship??

hell nah

[burnt onyx]

what this does?

[desert escarp]

well i have 2k uranium so it should not be a problem rn ig

[gray shoal]

Finds things in space

[stuck berry]

If it was previously landed on planetary terrain, yes

[desert escarp]

what use rusted metal have??

[gray shoal]

U make ferrite

[stuck berry]

Refining 1:2 into Ferrite Dust

[desert escarp]

oh

[stuck berry]

whereas all other biome minerals refine at 1:1 into ferrite dust

[rugged elbow]

Hi where can I get technology modules for my exocraft

[stuck berry]

You can purchase upgrade modules from the tech merchant aboard space stations, and technology blueprints can be purchased from Iteration: Perses aboard the Space Anomaly

[worldly sable]

Can I find curious deposits on any planets or only on specific planets?

[stuck berry]

You can install up to three upgrade modules per type, plus as much technology blueprints as you can fit. S-Class upgrade modules are ideal but not all space stations sell them, they're not rare though, just expensive

[stuck berry]

It's only on 1/3 of all planets/moons

this is not tied to any features of the planet (biome, sentinels etc)

[rugged elbow]

I appreciate it

[worldly sable]

Oh okay, just gotta be lucky then

[stuck berry]

Pretty much. Planets that have Metal "Fingers" or Sac Venom do not have Curious Deposits, so if you see either of those then move on

[worldly sable]

That's good to know ! Thanks !

[stuck berry]

Ideally the planet would be an extreme irradiated one, as radioactive storms increase mining beam yeilds significantly, but this optimization definitely isn't necessary and can be overkill if you're not mining up 2 inventories of mold to use at 90 refiners

[fiery bone]

does anyone know how to get Aeron Corvette parts? I wasn't playing when they ran the expedition. I have no idea how to chat with people in the anomaly area (I'm on PS5) and just started playing this month...but 160 hours in.

[stuck berry]

At best, someone could give you the parts and you could make more of them yourself using those

try asking in #nms-lfg-or-trades

[wheat cove]

The only way to obtain them now is save editing (for the blueprint, PC only) or trade from another player.

You cannot text chat on console, unfortunately.

[fiery bone]

ty

[stone carbon]

can I improve what I have here? If so, how?

[stuck berry]

This depends, what do you wish to prioiritize?

[stone carbon]

i'm not really sure tbh, probably my jetpack I guess? idk I think having it all equally good would be ideal

[stuck berry]

That's pretty much what I do, and mine is like this

[desert escarp]

what vicous fluids do

[stuck berry]

Refine into stuff that refines into nanites

[desert escarp]

MONEY

okay got it

i was trowing that thing away

dam

[stone carbon]

wait the bottom left 3x3 you have is all one group?

[wheat cove]

I did that on my first playthrough, too 😅

[stuck berry]

Yes, all of those are adjacent, at least when they all improve Shield Strength

[sturdy vigil]

this demotivated me

[stone carbon]

I gotta reorganize my stuff then

[desert escarp]

in my defense, those look like trash

[wheat cove]

They do!

[stuck berry]

The Jn does indeed stand for Junk

[stone carbon]

how come one of my water modules doesnt get a bonus but everything else does

[stuck berry]

Because the water modules are not adjacent with hazard protection stuff

they are only adjacent to themselves

[desert escarp]

vortex cube is just for selling, right?

[stuck berry]

Yes

[stone carbon]

oh so I need 2 for an adjacency bonus

[desert escarp]

more money

how can i get the cars btw?

[stuck berry]

Exocraft? By unlocking the blueprints for their geobays from the Construction Research Station and building them

you also get some geobay blueprints from the base NPC missions, Dreams of the Deep and A Trace of Metal

[gray shoal]

And Base expansion sidequest

[desert escarp]

okaay ty, i need to finish the tutorial first then

[stone carbon]

alright I think this is better than it was before. I just need some X class upgrades to replace the S class ones

[wheat cove]

I think you can improve the hazard protection stuff by putting the B/C/X class modules on the inside, surrounded by the modules that need to be charged. The aim is to get the ones with numbers the best adjacency bonuses, which the charged ones provide but don't benefit from

[analog scroll]

The translators don't teach you words, and A+S will translate the max number of words per conversation (they can translate words you already know), plus the artemis translator has not done anything since the single mission it is used for

[cinder orbit]

im looking for a certain wing-type on my future sentinel starship. does the race in a system influence it or is it always random?

[analog scroll]

Random. 1 sentinel model per suitable system

[distant pike]

Bro I did a thing for an autophage but he won’t give me my reward he’s just asking me to do another quest

[analog scroll]

What thing did you do, and what reward are you expecting?

[distant pike]

I helped a broken autophage somewhere

And I’m expecting 419 void motes

[analog scroll]

Go back to who gave you the mission, or turn it in at a space station

[prime cedar]

Anyone got tips on finding cool galaxies with unique fauna, starships, etc? I keep coming across the same dog and cat looking creatures and other similar things

I’ve been playing for years btw and can’t figure out how to find unique stuff lol

[distant pike]

The guy who gave me the mission won’t take it

I’ll go to a station

[swift sand]

feel free to elaborate on what you mean by unique - what i mean is, well, regardless of galaxy, game is still using the same algos for proc generating like fauna or ships. tbh, there isn't really a specific way to find these things we can consider amazing, unique, other than to basically bruteforce it. goto every system, visit and explore a bit on every planet, etc. sure, there are some rules and exceptions: for example, robo fauna cant spawn in inhabited or abandoned systems, only in uncharted. anomalous flyers only in purple star systems. more fighter designs in vykeen systems. etc etc

[prime cedar]

By unique I mean like anything but the same fighter starships and same cat/dog fauna lol
Cause I’ve seen pictures of dinosaur and rodent looking ones before and other starships but I can’t figure out where to find any of that no matter how far I go
But what you said does help a bit

[swift sand]

yeah, i get what you're saying. but trust me: dont get discouraged, you'll eventually find cool stuff.

[knotty crystal]

How do I get the multi-tool from Sentinel Pillars?

[wet sigil]

You need to interact with the terminal near the pillar

(not sure if you need to destroy the 3 towers surrounding it the first time you use that terminal)

[knotty crystal]

How do I find that place?

[wet sigil]

The towers or the pillar?

the towers are right next to the pillar

[analog scroll]

It's 1 of the 4 small towers surrounding the larger pillar

[crisp sphinx]

My frigate Thunderbird's landing platform is getting stuck inside the model bug

[knotty crystal]

pillar

[wet sigil]

The pillar are findable either by using sentinel map (which drops off sentinels) or go to a non-dissonant world, kill sentinels until wave 5, after that it will automatically reveal the location of a pillar

[knotty crystal]

ok thanks

[swift sand]

@knotty crystal see attached image for some more info, if you're looking specifically for royals

[swift sand]

sorry, didnt understand the situation - would you please try to clarify/providing images if needed?

[astral wadi]

new staff, are these sc slots good?

i thought so

[swift sand]

imo yeah, and you're still missing the S-class SC, who knows where that might be

[astral wadi]

oof, i need 35k more nanites to upgrade it 😭

[swift sand]

let us know if you need some tips for that 🙂

[astral wadi]

i know the basics, is it more profitable to refine salvaged glass or to sell the upgrades you get from it?

[knotty crystal]

im lf exp12 final quest,

[wet sigil]

Wait, salvaged glass can refine into nanites?

[astral wadi]

yeah, and inverted mirrors

[wet sigil]

I know about inverted mirrors, but not salvaged glass, how much do they refine for?

[astral wadi]

i think its 60, not sure though.

[analog scroll]

Not according to NMSAssisstant, but it has been behind for some time

[astral wadi]

let me go start a fight and ill let you know

[wet sigil]

if it's 60, from the odds of seeing an upgrade by looting it instead, not even remotely worth it

If you have units, I would hop outlaw stations, buy up all the suspicious tech and weapon packages (and goods if you want to lessen the unit cost), open them all up and sell the x ranked techs for nanites. 35k shouldn't take too long

[astral wadi]

yeah i have 91m

[wet sigil]

I would do that then

[deft schooner]

what ship part am I meant to attach these too?

[analog scroll]

That's a corvette part

[deft schooner]

I know, but in the tech menu what does it connect with, I cant find a pair

[swift sand]

should be pulse engine

[deft schooner]

it connected to launch thrusters nvm

[swift sand]

lol, it was one or the other 😄

[deft schooner]

yeah lol, thanks tho

[astral wadi]

i could have sworn you could refine it but i guess not

my apologies

[echo sinew]

I’m doing a mission and It says to purchase technology blue prints or new base parts, I’ve done both but nothing is happening???

[analog scroll]

The Space Anomaly? Where is the purple HUD indicator right now?

Have you spoken with Nada twice?

Am I allowed to send pics into this ???

[analog scroll]

Yes

[fair raft]

a doubt i have a a class stardistrorer , i got a a class pirete ship if i take the pirte ship will i be able to farm s class pirate ship?

[analog scroll]

For troubleshooting purposes

[analog scroll]

You can farm freighters any time they spawn. !faq-freighter in #nms-commands gives you the way to do it. Note you can only have 1 freighter at a time

[analog scroll]

Exit that screen, screenshot your entire game screen. Where is the purple icon? Is this your first time in the Anomaly?

[echo sinew]

No Ive bene multiple times

[analog scroll]

Then it's a placeholder. There are no objectives you can complete for it

Select another mission and move on

[echo sinew]

So I can never complete it ?

[analog scroll]

No, and it will never disappear

[echo sinew]

It’s a primary mission

Wtf

[analog scroll]

None of the 3 primary missions ever disappear. You will end up with New Beginnings, Atlas Eternal, and The Space Anomaly

[wheat cove]

It currently requires you to progress the Artemis questline

[analog scroll]

Select whichever primary mission is not titled The Space Anomaly or The Atlas Path and move on

[deft current]

Recently i got some Silver from shooting & destroying a Space object, i didn't know we could get Silver outside of the Anomaly, are there other ways to collect Silver outside of doing the bidding of the Anomaly..?

[swift sand]

condensed stellar ice; there's also the rare drop chance on fleet expeditions and some settlement decision rewards

[analog scroll]

I assume you mean quicksilver

[swift sand]

i think so too yeah

[pastel agate]

Hello travellers, i am not able to Change my exosuit colors to black anymore and i only have Like half the colors available, how can i fix this?

[deft current]

How rare is Stellar Ice, is it reasonable to farm this method, or is ot too rare to care about..?

[swift sand]

too rare ime, to drop the qs

[analog scroll]

There is no true black in the game

[signal cedar]

Do you mean the colour selection is cut in half? Are you playing on handheld like Steam Deck?

[pastel agate]

Yeah but there is this dark grey, i only have light grey available to select at the Station

[signal cedar]

If so, it's a known issue with the games UI, feel free to report it to the devs

[pastel agate]

Yes, i Play on Steam Deck atm

[silver bluff]

Is there something that fixes the deer creatures eyes being weird when they bend down to eat

[deft current]

I hate to think HG really meant Mercury, which is so very toxic here on Earth and has affected so much of our post WWII populations permanently as it was mined for all our war munitions..

So, i just focus on the Silver part of the word even though mining Silver itself still exposes heaps of combined Mercury and presents it to damage our populations and pollute our lands irredeemably..

[alpine heart]

can i use atlas v3 cards on v2 doors?

[pastel agate]

Ooh okay thank you

[knotty frigate]

Are there any more secret quests after finding the purple systems I should know about?

[wheat cove]

Same with the cargo pods, atlascard V2 and V3 open the ones that require V1

[desert escarp]

is it a good system??

[analog scroll]

If you like it, sure

[deft current]

They're all "good", but for what idnk..

[knotty frigate]

What does conflict level dictate?

[desert escarp]

i mean, the economy and conflict

[wheat cove]

Pirate attacks

[deft current]

Go 3 stars for either to increase likelyhood..

[desert escarp]

3 stars?>

[deft current]

Yeah, skip the descriptors, look at the icons and stars the icons have next to them.. ..when in Galaxy View.. ..some players look for fights, lol.. and some players look for 3-Star Systems to do Trading..

[desert escarp]

where can i see that..?

[deft current]

Galaxy View.. when doing light jumps..

[knotty crystal]

I obtained a metallic hatching unit. Should I hatch it directly or put it in an egg sequencer?

[desert escarp]

thats why i cant see it i need to install things

[analog scroll]

Economy scanner is cheap and the materials needed to install it are available at every space station

[deft current]

Are you da mama, or is the machine da mama..? You decide, lol.. Just jesting.. go sequencer if you want to add mats to affect the outcome of the hatching eggs..

[knotty crystal]

I don't know the system in eggs, that's why I asked

[deft current]

Srry, there's heaps of choices using the machine hatching..

[desert escarp]

is the bug of paradise planets being not paradise is common?

[deft current]

Bug? Planets & Systems actually evolve & change over time..

[analog scroll]

A planet labeled Paradise will be Paradise, a planet not labeled Paradise will not be (assuming normal difficulty)

[desert escarp]

i scanned a planet and it said paradise while on the ship, when i landed it says flourishing

[analog scroll]

Show the screenshots, and your difficulty settings

[swift sand]

you mean mecha-mouse? not sure we can alter that one/exp robo pets

[desert escarp]

sadly i dont have a screenshot of the ship saying it, but im in normal with nothing changed

[analog scroll]

Scan it again from space

[desert escarp]

nvm it still says it

[swift sand]

another question: but what does the visor show you, when you're on the planet and aim visor at the sky for example?

[analog scroll]

Discovery screen is often different. The image on the right and the visor should match, though

[coral shoal]

I haven't started the Xeno Arena yet but I'm going to get some pets today and start 🙂 I have noticed that at different tables that some are Challenge Contenders, some are Rising Stars and one was a Challenge Trainer. Are these different ranks of difficulty to play against?

[swift sand]

playing modded? in any case, blissful weather pattern = no storms - could as well be labeled paradise

[desert escarp]

yeah actually

Just a QoL modpack i think

[analog scroll]

That's why

[swift sand]

then before submitting a bug report, you'd test without mods

if you can still repro, then go ahead and submit

[desert escarp]

whitout mods it wouldnt say paradise?

[knotty crystal]

i mean quad egg

[swift sand]

no idea, i assume it would, but it's a matter of testing without mods - general rule, devs dont accept bug reports with mods on

[swift sand]

yeah, afaik quad egg cant be size modified, color modified

@desert escarp sorry, i assume it would

[desert escarp]

whats the diference bettewen flourishing and paradise?

[swift sand]

but as long as it's running with mods, one cant really know

[desert escarp]

the sentinels?

[fringe osprey]

Hi. How do I clear a 'set waypoint'? I am in my list of 'visited systems', and I set a waypoint on a system, ex ABC. But I don't want to go there now, I want to clear the 'waypoint'. LongPress to re-set does not clear... and you can have multiple waypoints set on systems.. so I'm confused. Thanks.

[swift sand]

both are synonyms for the lush biome, paradise will outright confirm that it doesn't have storms

[knotty crystal]

Is the situation the same with other exps pets as well?

[swift sand]

any planet of the lush biome might not have storms, but not be labeld paradise

[desert escarp]

ohh i see

[swift sand]

the robotic ones yeah afaik

[swift sand]

via galaxy map, set a waypoint to a system you want to get to, or one really nearby - then warp to it. it will clear the marker off the other system

[swift sand]

sentinel presence is basically shown as <none>/high sec/dissonance detected/aggressive

<none> = low, rare to see them spawning out in the wild near us

[desert escarp]

yeah here is high sadly

can i get rid of them tho?

[swift sand]

high sec isn't a big deal tbh, they're not aggressive by default still. that said, if planet has at least 1 sentinel pillar, you could locate one, and shutdown sentinels on the planet whenever you need to. the shutdown state persists till next reload/restart or leaving system

[desert escarp]

hmmm, okay ty

[swift sand]

@desert escarp locating sentinel pillar can be done via sentinel boundary chart, or defeating wanted level 5 on that planet

[tulip dust]

-# to view info below, enable embeds

<:info:850810445577453658> Where to get: Sentinel Boundary chart

There's multiple Sentinel Boundary chart sources:

• Salvaged Glass (possible drop from non-corrupted ground sentinels)
• Suspicious packet (Goods) (possible drop from destroyed enemy ships, available from outlaw station contraband agent npc)
• Buried Cache
• Wheel Barrows at Harmonic Camps
• Mission reward
• Salvageable Scrap
• Mercenary Guild Envoys

Outlaw systems can be found using an Economy Scanner. Type !faq-systemscanners in #bot-spam for more info.

[knotty crystal]

ok thanks

[fringe osprey]

Hi. I tried that... did not clear the waypoints on other systems... those still exist. Maybe I'll just log on/off... that usualy fixes stuff... lol

[swift sand]

that's odd yeah, shouldnt let you have 2 waypointed systems at the same time. when you waypointed via galaxy map itself, did you double check discoveries to see if it also marked the system there? it used to at least

[forest sparrow]

Has anyone had this issue before? when i craft a corvette the camera sometimes becomes offset like this, where the ship is no longer in the centre of the screen but slightly to the left.

[swift sand]

hmm, try to change to cockpit camera and back again?

[forest sparrow]

I have tried that

[swift sand]

not sure then, sorry. does save+reload temporarily fix? or warping to a diff system?

if you're not running any mods, would recommend raising a bug report when you get a bit of spare time

Hi. I re-did the whole process a second time (without log off/on)... and now it seems the other old waypoints are gone. So.... seems to be OK now... thanks for the advice.

[shy marten]

Hello, I wanted to ask if the plants stay in the biodome after I move whole biodome to another place. Or do I need to replant it after I move it?

[analog scroll]

I've never moved one that was full, but my thought is that it should stay planted. If it doesn't, though, the plant materials will be returned to you

[hollow bluff]

They won't stay

[astral wadi]

How many systems does one need to make a complete loop for buying suspicious modules

10?

[swift sand]

thanks for the feedback+sharing back!

[swift sand]

10, 12, that sounds about right

[shy marten]

Okey, thank you.

[balmy willow]

Hey, I encountered something a couple of times last week. I took off from a world to go to where I left my freighter, and found a duplicate, cockeyed to mine. I entered the hangar, and as soon as I left my ship, the camera tilted and I was now floating a bit off the floor. I flew around to explore to suddenly find myself OUTSIDE the hangar, with no way to get back in! I reloaded the 1st time and was back at my last save. The duplicate was still there but I didn't go in the 2nd time. The other instance, a total repeat of the 1st, except now when I reloaded, I was still in space outside the duplicate ship. I would have died had I not been able to summon my corvette.

Anyone else experience this, or know if the Devs are aware?

[bitter crypt]

That's a bug that's been going around lately. I believe people said that reloading restore point or warping back in can fix it

Do be sure to report it to Hello Games though

[knotty frigate]

So if it's low conflict there's low chance of a pirate freighter striking?

[balmy willow]

1st time reload took me back to my last save, 2nd time I loaded still out in space, I summoned my corvette and just went off from there.

[inland ermine]

I KNOW THE FIX

@forest sparrow did you build your corvette off-center?

Like,is tge cockpit perfectly on the middle line of the landing pad, or is the ship slightly to the side

Because it might be just a matter of moving the whole ship one "box" to the right

[swift sand]

hi, this should have been fixed with 6.36; did you update already? then definitely raise a bug report when you get a bit of spare time.

https://www.nomanssky.com/2026/05/xeno-arena-6-36/

Fixed an issue that could cause a duplicate of the player's Freighter to appear after warping.

[wide onyx]

yes but pretty low

I just said

Up there

How to fix lmao

[wide onyx]

oh

i see it lol

mb

[inland ermine]

Np

[forest sparrow]

ill try that thanks

Well the ship is centered for sure

[inland ermine]

Pls tell if that worked, gotta write it down for the future

[forest sparrow]

No, unfortunately not

[swift sand]

@forest sparrow does this happen if you try it out with just a basic corvette, no fancy build? like just the core modules needed, no weird positions on the builder grid, just as simple and straightforward as possible?

[cinder orbit]

if i found my "dream" sentinel ship can i farm the planet for more ships in hope of another colour or class or are all ships perfectly identical?

[wide onyx]

most are different

[swift sand]

nope

1 sentinel ship design per suitable dissonant system, includes color scheme

[cinder orbit]

i found 3 of the same class and colour

[astral wadi]

Got to 69k

[cinder orbit]

and class?

[astral wadi]

Supercharge slot is meh but happy I did it

[swift sand]

class can be different, fixed per crashed ship site, influenced by system economy tier

[wide onyx]

wym

[astral wadi]

Placement

[wide onyx]

you got it in a bad spot??

[swift sand]

supercharged slot is also fixed per site, until/if a class upgrade is needed, at which point it is/they're generated off the ship seed itself

[cinder orbit]

Thanks for the help im guessing im just going to try and get an a class so i dont need as much nanites

[swift sand]

sounds good. remember that you can reuse harmonic camp interface to locate multiple sites on the same planet

[cinder orbit]

i forgot to mark the first one but im using a second one right now. can the harmonic camp mark the same ship tewice if already collected?

[wide onyx]

and set up a base near a harmonic camp to ensure you dont lose it

[swift sand]

not ime, at least not that i've noticed, and certainly not in the same session

[cinder orbit]

thats how i marked it so i can return to get more if i need them

[wide onyx]

nice

i made the mistake of not doing that my first time

[cinder orbit]

me too so i used another echo lovcator

[wide onyx]

mhm

[forest sparrow]

It only happends on certain builds, because a while back i made another and it didnt have the issue

[swift sand]

gotcha. yeah, that might mean that there's a part, or parts, placed somewhere, causing the issue perhaps - but probably hard to track down. have you tried asking/sharing this around in #nms-corvette-discussion ? but yeah, raise a bug report on it if you havent already

jsut an a class upgrade

pfield compressor, unlocked from anomaly mt research npc

try supercharging that instead of core tech

also, you got unlucky with that sc layout

[astral wadi]

yah.

[deft current]

Worry not.. an Alien MT will come along..

[astral wadi]

why does that work?

[swift sand]

more spheres, more damage

[astral wadi]

oh im looking for a sentinel one

there we go

[polar shard]

Sentinel multi tools aren’t to hard to get just find a dissonant system and blah blah

[analog scroll]

Damage Potential is not DPS and is calculated by every installed weapon on a multi tool

[swift sand]

that's ships

[astral wadi]

well i only have one weapon

[swift sand]

multitool only the strongest counts

Mining beam counts

Hey, what is carrier ai fragment for?

[analog scroll]

Finding a sentinel interceptor in a suitable system

[wide onyx]

could work more on mining, and scanning, the fighting aspects look good for now tho

[astral wadi]

im gonna do staff for mining and scanning, and rifle for fighting (sentinel once i upgrade it)

[astral wadi]

i have a sperate one for that

[polar shard]

Staff is the best for damage tho

[astral wadi]

wreong

sentinel is

[wide onyx]

dropped from sentinel freighters, when your in a system with dissonance you can use it to find a crashed sentinel ship easily

[analog scroll]

Staff has a higher damage bonus than a rifle, if that's why you're doing 2

[keen notch]

What a lucky mission that was then to reward it

[analog scroll]

Staff and Sentinel share the same damage bonus range

[astral wadi]

im so confused 😭

[analog scroll]

That might help

[wide onyx]

you can farm it, by shooting the space station once to trigger a sentinel invasion, get all the way to tier 5 and a sentinel freighter will spawn

thank you for linking the thing im asking for help with

a few of those upgrades are not known to me

[analog scroll]

Names are all procedurally generated, with the exception of the blueprints from the Anomaly. Get the ones that boost the stats you want, add all of the anomaly blueprints

[wide onyx]

what does adding a hijacked laser to a mining beam do?

[astral wadi]

i meant the anomoly ones yes

[analog scroll]

Add them all. Go to the multi tool tech vendor in the Anomaly, unlock anything related to the scanner, install all of them

[astral wadi]

interesting. they dont seem to give many benefits compared to s class modules

[analog scroll]

Upgrade modules are different compared to upgrade blueprints

[wide onyx]

some of them have useful utilities rather than pure stats

[real hemlock]

how do i get hyper drive

[astral wadi]

yo congrats on lvl 10 btw

ty guys

[analog scroll]

Keep progressing the mission Awakenings

[wide onyx]

keep doing the first quest

[wide onyx]

ty

[wide onyx]

np glad to be of some help

[real hemlock]

how far into it is it?

ty btw

[wide onyx]

rly early on

js keep going for a bit

[real hemlock]

alr ty

[analog scroll]

You get the hyperdrive at the end of the mission Awakenings, which is the first of 9 story missions

[real hemlock]

also which galaxy has alot of ppl

cause ik u dont usually see ppl

[analog scroll]

You are unlikely to run into other players outside of the Anomaly, which you have not reached yet

The universe is big. Most people have a hard time grasping how big

[real hemlock]

aw ok

ty

[wide onyx]

well the stats say most people are in euclid, but since such a small portion is mapped out, your better off going to a player hotspot or the anomaly rahter than looking for people randomly, which is likely to never happen

[real hemlock]

ok

ty

[keen notch]

How to get a poncho and robotic limbs for my character?

[analog scroll]

You have to complete the story, then complete the secondary mission They Who Returned, then do missions for the Autophage and buy the cosmetics from them

[real hemlock]

wait so r galaxy's massssivvvvve

[analog scroll]

The starting galaxy (and each of the other 255 galaxies in the game) have roughly 2.2 trillion star systems, each with 2-6 planetary bodies

[wide onyx]

pretty sure lesser than 0.1% of the FIRST galaxy is mapped out, so yea they are huge

[keen notch]

Dam, long way to go

[real hemlock]

i cant seem to find any paradise planets tho

[analog scroll]

You will

[wide onyx]

that mission is a dread, continous jumps and constant landings for small amounts of items

my advice

stock up on atlantedium

and everything to make living glass

[wide onyx]

i usually tend to find them every 5-10 warps, so js keep going for a bit

[real hemlock]

ok

[wide onyx]

and aim for system with good economies, js an advantage to put your base in one

[astral wadi]

keep in mind that there are multiple types of paradise planets, some have storms.

[wide onyx]

nope

paradise worlds cant have storms

[astral wadi]

lush planets i mean

[real hemlock]

wait how many pulse engines will it take

[wide onyx]

yep, but if its labelled lush it can still have extreme weather, not rly a 'paradise'

[astral wadi]

pulse engine is the thing that makes you go fast

[keen notch]

No idea what is this

[real hemlock]

ye but ive done like 50 and found nothing

[buoyant terrace]

I have a paradise planet with “corrupted blood” weather

[wide onyx]

wym? pulse engines are for travelling between space in a system, not across systems

[wide onyx]

wow, is that a bug??

[real hemlock]

ik i cant travel across yet havent finished awakenings

[wide onyx]

lol, dont worry about that js yet, js keep going through the story and you'll eventually reach there

[buoyant terrace]

I think, It never has storms but has that weather it has bubbles also

[wide onyx]

bubbles stop extreme weather

[analog scroll]

You cannot change star systems until you get the hyperdrive, no matter how far or how long you pulse

[wide onyx]

pulsing doesnt let you leave a system

js go through it

for that you need a hyperdrive

[real hemlock]

ye but will there be no paradises in the system im in

or is there only the planets i found so far which is like 6

[wide onyx]

not guaranteed

[analog scroll]

There will only be a maximum of 6 planetary bodies (planets and moons) in any given system. Not every system will have any of one type of planet

[real hemlock]

aw man there all trash

[wide onyx]

yep you can check the discovery tab to see the max amount of planets (which caps at 6)

[deft current]

OMG!!! I just realized i traded my Sentinel MT (which LOOKED just like an Alien MT) for a "better" looking Alien MT, and have since recycled all my unused MTs!! Now my fighting MT is a real Alien MT and not a Sentinel anymore..... 😱 😭 😭 😑

[wide onyx]

js keep going through the quest until you can leave

[real hemlock]

so can i pick up the base thing later?

[wide onyx]

wym by base thing? i dont understand

[wheat cove]

You can build multiple base computers (up to 400 per save)

[analog scroll]

You can build 400 bases in your save. Your first base will not ever be your only one

[real hemlock]

oh few

[pearl plinth]

Common slip, we've probably all done that at some time; top tip, if it says "Trade" MT come out of screen switch to a crappy one (always keep crappy one in collection) and use that to trade with.

[real hemlock]

MT? mothership or smth else?

[wide onyx]

multitool

[real hemlock]

ohh

[deft current]

No no, i didn't Trade it out, i made the weapon trade myself bc i thought it was an Alien (looks like one and i forgot), but secretly it was a Sentinel MT (the UI won't show us that info..) 🙈

[cinder orbit]

is the placement of supercharged slots important?

[pearl plinth]

Oh shoot!, I get ya, don't worry I once scrapped my best S class ship in the station once, not watching what I was doing 🤣

[deft current]

It is for Min/Max..

[buoyant terrace]

yeah they give better stats

[swift sand]

it can boost your stats by quite a bit yes, but game isnt balanced around optimal or ideal supercharged slot layouts; all work, all can be made to work

[cinder orbit]

could i send you a few screenshots to advise me wich one to invest in?

[deft current]

This makes the game not so dependent on spreadsheets and other complexities.. so, like it's just fun ! 🙂 But i'm still crying over losing my ultra rare Alien looking Sentinel MT, i suppose i may have noted where i located that MT from years ago.. 🤔

[swift sand]

sure. here's a few examples i pulled from the game. on a multitool, and since we can easily switch between active tools, players often tend to try and get SC layouts with adjacent slots, so that they can use them for the same system, and not have to break adjacency bonuses. for example, the top two would be really nice for that (damage dealer?), while the bottom two would suit themselves better to 1-per-system, or iow a more balanced, all around tool (e.g. scanning+mining?)

can post the screenies here too if you'd like more eyes

[humble pendant]

I’ve been trying to visit more galaxies, went through Euclide and Hillbert just fine visiting space stations to “save my spot” basically while I went collecting resources and stuff on bases in other galaxies and suddenly for Calypso and Hesperis, the stations don’t show anymore?

I visit them, teleport somewhere else and when I try to go back it only shows Eissentam, Euclide and Hillbert space stations

[swift sand]

knowing that number of supercharged slots is set by class (C1 B2 A3 S4), so:

• lower class ships i.e. c-class: might not be worth upgrading all the way, just to see how the sc layout is going to be, unless you've got a good feeling about it and the first sc slot isn't on the edge of the grid
• i'd probably go for the last one, because on ships, i like having 2 sc adjacent (e.g. for hyperdrive, weapons, pulse engine) and 2 spread apart.

[swift sand]

known bug i'm afraid

For those galaxies specifically or just when you visit too many in a row?

No known fix I suppose…

[swift sand]

i'd strongly recommend dropping and claiming a base comp on every galaxy you wish to ensure you can return to

[swift sand]

afaik, not for any specific galaxy, and not when you visit too many in a row

[humble pendant]

Oh so just randomly

[swift sand]

not that i'm aware of, just gotta wait for the devs to fix it

[cinder orbit]

im guessing the adjacent one you boost the main module and the strongest upgrade for it?

[humble pendant]

So it might last forever or magically fix itself one of those days

[swift sand]

depends on what you're supercharging, and what gear you're dealing with, but in general, for weapons, that's what you do. then there's some specific scenarios: e.g. using a sentinel ship, you'll notice you'll get a lot more out of supercharging crimson core first then a module if you'd like, but this relation of hyperdrive base tech with sc slots doesn't hold on non sentinel ships

[gaunt radish]

when out of debt, excess productivity makes production of stuff faster or goes straight into ur wallet?

(settlements)

[swift sand]

basically a current bug, we hope the devs take notice and fix it soon yeah

[analog scroll]

When your settlement is out of debt, production can occur. You do not benefit from any profits in any other way

[gaunt radish]

so if maintenance is 200k and u have 600k production

400k is just wasted?

[analog scroll]

It goes to the settlement. It's mostly flavor

[gaunt radish]

where can i check the settlement fundS??

[analog scroll]

You don't

[gaunt radish]

ah

[analog scroll]

They don't exist as a bank, just as it's making a profit or it's in debt

[gaunt radish]

😭

settlements need a bit more content, its just going into them, making the choice, make a building upgrade and

u forget bout it for about and houre

and repeat

ah yeah can claiming wtv u re produccing

[analog scroll]

They relatively recently had an entire update cycle devoted to them. They're a LOT different now than they were when they first became a thing

spawned below the bedrock?

[astral wadi]

yes bro, second time its happened on this planet

might go to a different one

[summer lantern]

rip, hate when that happens

[wheat cove]

Sometimes, if you clear enough space above it, it will pop to the surface, even from beneath the bedrock. But not always.

[summer lantern]

surprised they havent added a periodic raycast check to see if it's underground, unless some weird sphaghetti code prevents it

[cinder orbit]

Thats what im currently running with any ideas what to change?

[analog scroll]

Add more tech slots, add more hyperdrive upgrades

[cinder orbit]

i meant order wise i can also get it to s class and so on

[summer lantern]

Is that modded? I havent seen some of those tech

[analog scroll]

It's a sentinel ship

[cinder orbit]

should be vanilla

[summer lantern]

Ah, sentinnel. The one between the infra-knife upgrades tripped me up

[astral wadi]

k got the walker brain

neutron cannon is STUPID

the thing just shreds

[cinder orbit]

lets say im using my frighter for travel can i put the hyperdrive upgrades away?

[inland ermine]

You could, but then you limit your jump range

[cinder orbit]

but if im jumping with the frighter why would that matter?

[summer lantern]

doesnt seem to be much a concern is using the freighter

[inland ermine]

Oh, you're jumping with the freighter

Then, yeah sure

Just keep in mind that freighter will always have shorter range than any smaller ship

[wheat cove]

If this was my ship, I'd be making sure to add is more shields - you can add the Ablative Shielding blueprint tech, and 3 S- or X-class shields (30%+)

[cinder orbit]

totally forgot about shields thank you

[wheat cove]

Oh, and launch thruster upgrades (because I want to reduce the cost)

What "practice language sklls" does? if you guess correctly they heal you?

[astral wadi]

give you stuff, not major things. you dont have to guess, just show them a word you learned.

[summer lantern]

if you choose right, it can give you standing or some units/nanites/items

just fished an abyssal horror egg, with a warning not to let it hatch

.... will it actually hatch?

[slender breach]

Should this take 20 hours???

[analog scroll]

Looks that way, yes

[slender breach]

Holy...

[astral wadi]

frigate expeditions are more a daily thing

[supple goblet]

Hi, may i ask, does the colour of galaxies mean anything, like what colours mean to planets? Ty

[astral wadi]

yes, different stellar metals and different planet types (for purple star systems)

unless you dont mean stars

[buoyant terrace]

Is there any autophage settlements?

[astral wadi]

no.

sadly

[supple goblet]

Actually yes, i have 2

[astral wadi]

WHAT

[supple goblet]

U can use the map from harmonic camp to find

[supple goblet]

Yeah, i got 2

[astral wadi]

frick i am useless bro 😭

[wheat cove]

You mean like the normal/harsh/lush/empty galaxy colours (like Euclid vs Calypso vs Eissentam vs Budullangr)? It affects the ratio of those types of planets (they have a slightly higher chance of being that type).

[supple goblet]

I mean galaxies XD but tyyyy :>

[cinder orbit]

is there a way to upgrade ships from your frighter?

[supple goblet]

Oh yeah, i mean to ask that, sorry for my bad english. Ty

[supple goblet]

I think no..., u will need to go to space station

[wheat cove]

It depends which ships, if you mean frigates, they upgrade through experience on expeditions

If you mean your own starships, no. For your squadron, you can upgrade those on the freighter.

[supple goblet]

Both of my autophage camps still in debt till now XD

[lone marlin]

how do i recharge these?

dont know what they are called so i cant look it up

[summer lantern]

is there a global limit to automatic feeder? I only got one in one base in a different system

[analog scroll]

Food, or a health recharger that you build in a base. Those are your health pips

[supple goblet]

I dont think so, if u reach the limit it will say that u have reached the limit, not this...

[swift sand]

dont supercharge q-resonator, supercharge a s-class infra instead, rest looks good to me so far 🙂 remember, "make squares, not rows", and that's where more tech slots will be needed, to get 3 s-class modules for each system, all in a square

[wet star]

Specifically, meat works to restore your health.

[astral wadi]

where is the sentinel multitool guide?

[cinder orbit]

whats the max amount of upgrades i can have per module beacause i added a 4th shield and it overloaded but once i used a 4th s rank for shields it had no problem

[lone marlin]

no something for the pluses

[wet star]

Yes, your health (as opposed to suit shields)

[astral wadi]

#nms-commands message

here you go

[summer lantern]

this one?
#nms-questions message

[cinder orbit]

thx

[lone marlin]

i ate meat nothing happened

[summer lantern]

Anyone know why it wont let me? Got the materials in my exosuit inv

[swift sand]

up 3 upgrade modules of the same type at the same time, regardless of class; what doesnt overload are tech blueprints, only upgrade modules can overload. so i'm sure that you didn't have more than 3 s-class shield upgrade modules

[wet star]

You had 3hp in the screenshot above; is that still true?

[lone marlin]

yes

[cinder orbit]

no it where b calss

[swift sand]

what kind of meat did you eat

[swift sand]

that was probably ablative armor, the shield tech upgrade bp you can get from the anomaly

[lone marlin]

processed meat

[summer lantern]

oh, ok, figured it out

[swift sand]

says there that you dont have enough mats to build it

[summer lantern]

for some reason it said i had 10 pellets but i only had 5?

[wet star]

Just eat it raw. Kill something and eat whatever it drops.

[swift sand]

was about to explain that: it's reaching in other inventories, but then unable to use them all from diff inventories

[summer lantern]

i think it may had been counting another inaccessible inv for the mat count

[astral wadi]

idk. however you get sentinel multitools

[wheat cove]

Sentinel multitools are found in the sealed cabinets at harmonic camps

[rich stratus]

You mean royal tools?

[astral wadi]

no

different thing

[rich stratus]

I know is possible to get a royal tool from those sentinels stations

[swift sand]

processed meat isnt raw yeah, processed meat recharges life support

[wheat cove]

Run !faq-interceptor for how to find Harmonic Camps, solve the glyphs from the sums, and then lift the seal on the multi-tool cabinet.

[astral wadi]

perfect ty

[wet star]

Royals are from sentinel pillars
Sentinel tools are from harmonic camps.
The question was about the latter.

[analog scroll]

Royal tools come from some Sentinel Pillars, Sentinel tools come from Harmonic Camps

[rich stratus]

Oh ok

[summer lantern]

i was really lucky that my first 2 pillars had royal tools

[distant pike]

My go to portal was used in the authopage quest and now it’s still glowing purple. Is it safe to use still?

[analog scroll]

You mean monolith?

[distant pike]

Yea a monolith portal

That you put glyphs into

[analog scroll]

Monoliths lead you to portals. If you can't use that portal because of the mission override, find another one. Every planet has one

[distant pike]

No I can use it

It lets me put glyphs

[analog scroll]

Then do so

[distant pike]

But it’s glowing purple

Idk if it’s safe to use

[wet star]

Should be safe enough, then.

[distant pike]

Or not

Alright thanks

[wet star]

If nothing else, you can always fall back on your autosave.

[summer lantern]

After inducing an egg, can i dismiss the pet and can I take the egg for gene stuff?

[swift sand]

yeah

[crystal turret]

Is it possible to upgrade a pets class?

[surreal wadi]

hello, so I came here to ask a quick question- is there a way to change multitool worldshaper keybinds that change what type it is (leveling extract and building) because I have other things bound to V and I'd like to change it

[analog scroll]

Check your keybind controls

[surreal wadi]

I did check but idk if its the right setting and there was nothing about multitool

only things I found were settings related to menu, flying, exploration and photo mode (and other things related to these)

[nimble wraith]

Does anyone know what kind of material these walls are? I have all the blueprints and they don't look familiar.

[analog scroll]

Where did you see it?

[nimble wraith]

It is in a base I am in, someone else built it. Said they did it without glitching and no blender/save edit

[analog scroll]

Legacy concrete walls

[nimble wraith]

Ahhh.. Are those not available anymore?

[analog scroll]

Not without a save editor

[nimble wraith]

dangit!

I like the clean look of it

[untold gate]

Guys i wanna put more technological shit into my corvette and its just upgrades and i dont have any storage for it is there a way i can get some ?

[analog scroll]

Add more slots, assuming it's higher than C class

[untold gate]

How

[analog scroll]

If not, raise the class

[untold gate]

That costs 10k nanites

Thsts redicoulusly expensive

[analog scroll]

Both can be done in the ship augmentation terminal on the space station

[analog scroll]

From C to B. B to A is 25k and A to S is 50k

[untold gate]

But its for starships and not corvettes ?

[analog scroll]

Corvettes are starships

[untold gate]

WHO CAN AFFORD MTHAT SPACE ELON MUSK ?

[untold gate]

Ah

[analog scroll]

Nanites are easy to get once you have a reliable source of income. You can easily get 100k in an hour

[keen portal]

I recommend making a nanite farm! Soon you won't be finding 10k to be problematic

[untold gate]

Well i guess no uogrades or me it costs 75 million units wich in theory is possible but thsts o much grinding

[keen portal]

for the slots it's easier to farm for storage augmentations instead

[analog scroll]

You have to raise the class to have more than 30 tech slots, though

[untold gate]

Bro i wanna upgrade my 2nd starship to max and i wanna do that to my corvette but i cant cuz it costs 6 arms and 10 legs

[analog scroll]

Options > Difficulty Settings > Purchases > Free is an option, should you choose to use it

[untold gate]

I sesrched for storage parts they do nothing

Atleast i sdded 1 it does nothing i dont know why

[analog scroll]

Storage Augmentations add either a cargo or a tech slot for each one

[untold gate]

I probably reached the limit

[untold gate]

I locked it

[analog scroll]

C class ships are limited to 30 tech slots. If you want more, you have to raise the class

[untold gate]

And i wouldnt do it anyways thats cheating

[untold gate]

Wich costs 10k nanites meaning i have to declare war on the sentinals

[untold gate]

Cuz sometimes i get like 100 nanites from a ship

[keen portal]

No you don't. Look for a big curious deposit or something

[untold gate]

Th fuck is that

I can refine platinum wich means i need gold and silver i think wich means ven more grinding wich means its impossible

[keen portal]

refer to this

[untold gate]

My 2nd starship does like 470 damage and my corvette does 270 or something i csnt upgrade my corvette cuz it costs an absurd amount of money

[keen portal]

But tl;dr curious deposits are fluffy orbs that spawn on certain planets. You shoot them and get runaway mould, which you can refine into nanites with high efficiency

[untold gate]

Ah

Ok

[analog scroll]

Gold and silver mines can be automated, but platinum is a poor way to earn nanites compared to some others

[untold gate]

The hell is tldr?

[keen portal]

Isn't it like 35 platinum per nanite lol

[keen portal]

too long didn't read

[analog scroll]

"Too long; Didn't Read"

[untold gate]

Well idk man id classify myself mid game

[untold gate]

HOLY SHIT IVE BEEN WANDERING WHAT IT MEANT FOR AGES THANK YOU

So to me its good

But whatever just like making my own starship i gotta say bye bye to the dream of upgrading my corvette untill im in the late game aka like 200h

UGHHHHH

I dont even use my 2nd starship that often its sorta usefull but it does so much damage and i always use my corvette and having a maxed out spaceship is basicly useless cuz i dont use mine for combat just for transportation on planets cuz its easier and less bulky then my corvette and i cant even have my corvettes damage maxed out untill like 295929 hours in the game cuz its way more usefull to have that maxed out instead of my starships

[keen portal]

you really don't, just build a base near a curious deposit

mine the curious deposit, then teleport back and forth between the base and some other teleporter to make the deposit respawn

do that a few times and you probably make 10k nanites worth of mould easily

[untold gate]

What do those curious deposits look like ?

[untold gate]

Well alr

[keen portal]

funny groups of balls
you can look for them using your analysis visor

they show up as a symbol with three stars in a triangle
though that symbol can also be other things, make sure you highlight it

[analog scroll]

Look around the planet, find the 3-star resource. Every planet has 1 type

• Metal Fingers
• Sac Venom
• Rurious Deposits

[untold gate]

Imagine if you cpuld fsrm carbon platinum somehow copper uranium sodium and shit it would so awsome

[untold gate]

Ah and are they commun ?

[keen portal]

yeah, so if you land on a planet and the 3* resource isn't the curious deposit then look for another planet

[untold gate]

K

Thanks

Ill try that

[analog scroll]

If the planet has one of the first 2 types, go to another planet and look again. Repeat until you find one. Build a base there and build basic walls around the deposits, but NOT under them, then shoot and collect the mold, fly to space, fly back and land and do it again. Refine as you get enough for nanites

Repeat as much as you need

[untold gate]

Aight thanks

[tiny vortex]

brothers,
can you do more with fish than just releasing them? or its just that?

[analog scroll]

You can cook and eat them

Or sell them

[vapid sun]

how do you unlock all the options in the appearance editor?

[analog scroll]

Some are expedition rewards, some are quicksilver purchases, some are from fishing, some are from missions (Dreams of the Deep), some are from the Autophage

[vapid sun]

OK, I’m just starting to do more auto phase mission so I can get void modes will that offer options for new helmets and capes and weapons?

[analog scroll]

You purchase them from their terminals, yes. Not all terminals will have all options

[tiny vortex]

yeah, but cant have this handsome head structure without expedition 10

[vapid sun]

OK, that’s cool but what about in the appearance editor?

[stuck berry]

Autophage Synthesis Terminals don't ever contain capes, those are all unlocked from either Quicksilver or past expeditions

[vapid sun]

I had no idea that expeditions have been so rarely throughout the year

[analog scroll]

Once you buy 1 of the autophage heads, their race is unlocked in the appearance editor

[vapid sun]

oh cool

can people gift them to people as well?

[analog scroll]

Other locked items are as I said above #nms-questions message

[buoyant terrace]

What is the max hyperdrive range for a freighter?

[stuck berry]

Up to like 6,000 LY

Realistically any freighter design can reach 5,000 LY

[buoyant terrace]

Oh dang thats alot

[wicked scaffold]

What the heck... 😦

[tiny vortex]

thats a cool looking freighter

[keen portal]

Galleon nose, right? Those are neat

[buoyant terrace]

this is mine

[tiny vortex]

btw, Atlantid Autophage Head has the Salvaged Facial Unit inside it

[keen portal]

My first was an extremely small red Enterprise freighter, super cute
I should share the coords at some point

[vapid sun]

where do you find s class freighters?

[keen portal]

it's random, but the economy tier of the system impacts the rates

[analog scroll]

Freighter class chances, like ships and tool cabinets, are based on system economy

[keen portal]

Yeah, best chance is in a pirate-controlled system

[buoyant terrace]

I got lucky and got a s class dreadnaught on my 3rd try

[analog scroll]

Took me about an hour each time I changed freighters to get one

[buoyant terrace]

What is the smallest planet you guys discovered?

[wide onyx]

how to i get that faecium farmable plant i think its called gotrot or smt

[buoyant terrace]

i just found this one

[wide onyx]

nice it took me 3 tries too

[analog scroll]

Unlock the blueprint either from the farmer or in the Anomaly

[wide onyx]

where in the anomoly?

what iteration or station

[analog scroll]

Construction Research terminal, like any base parts

[wide onyx]

ok

i can put it in my corvette right?

[keen portal]

14.3ks

[wide onyx]

mines 14.8ks

[devout shuttle]

how to stop this

[keen portal]

stop what, what am I looking at exactly

[stuck berry]

Hover over the part in the build menu, press View Variants

[buoyant terrace]

press B or something

[sand warren]

can someone help me troubleshoot my game crashing?

[devout shuttle]

it’s changing design

[tiny vortex]

you mean the type of wall ? you have a button to pick the variants

[unique imp]

I just beat my first dreadnought and it’s letting me claim it for free to replace my current freighter. It is an improvement but it’s only B class. If I claim it will I have to pay for future dreadnoughts as improvements or are they always free

[wide onyx]

are you on ps5?

[devout shuttle]

where

[keen portal]

Ah you need to select the specific wall variant yeah

[devout shuttle]

OH

[devout shuttle]

wait I see now

[analog scroll]

Dreadnoughts are free

[sand warren]

im on a laptop through steam

[devout shuttle]

mb im stupid

[wide onyx]

oh mb i cant help you then

[tiny vortex]

check the UI, i just closed the game, but when you see a part that has yellow bars over its icon, you can pic variants

[wide onyx]

maybe its a gpu problem

[keen portal]

???? They still have a units value assigned to them

I think the one I used to have cost like 60m or something

[stuck berry]

This is mainly for trade in value

Pirate Dreadnoughts are always free though for claiming purposes

[keen portal]

Ah I see

never really paid attention

[sand warren]

i put the crash report in #964865106334875698

[analog scroll]

While waiting for someone to take a look, take a look at what is in the Notes section #nms-questions message

[cyan void]

How do I find those glyph portal things? I been looking for them by just flying around random planets but well yall can guess that it’s not really working

[analog scroll]

!faq-portal

[tulip dust]

-# to view info below, enable embeds

Locating a Portal

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

📚 Notes:

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

Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[analog scroll]

You have to have the glyphs unlocked before you can use it

[keen portal]

Exocraft are your friends

[cyan void]

Aha a race relic item, I need to complete the story for those don’t I?

[stuck berry]

No, you don't

[analog scroll]

No, but completing the story will award all of the glyphs

[stuck berry]

You can just buy race relics from landed pilots at trade outposts and freighters

[cyan void]

Oh haha

That’s also good to know

[stuck berry]

You will specifically need a Gek Relic, Korvax Casing or Vy'keen Dagger depending on local dominant race

[buoyant terrace]

So in my wonders tab, it says “Most perfect” What does that mean? Isn’t there paradise planets everywhere?

[cyan void]

I always got some gek relics with me, love the lil guys

[stuck berry]

Just a flavor stat really

[analog scroll]

Something the devs decided to add in

[stuck berry]

with weight towards lush worlds that lack storms

[buoyant terrace]

I see, il try getting one thats about 98% and set up a base

[stuck berry]

Know that it doesn't determine anything, higher percentage is meaningless if both are lush worlds that lack storms

[buoyant terrace]

Ohh okay

[stuck berry]

My most perfect planet currently is a swamp, due to those technically being a subbiome of lush

[buoyant terrace]

What is the percentage?

[stuck berry]

The highest

it cannot exceed this

[buoyant terrace]

Oh wow

[stuck berry]

The "most hostile" one is this same stat but reversed, in which worlds with extreme storms and aggressive sentinels are most favored

[tiny vortex]

i got a cube shaped one with perfect angles

[buoyant terrace]

this one is mine
