The only carbon I see in any inventories is a stack of 600, but that would show as 600 in the recharge screen not 999

[swift sand]

not sure how it's showing 999 then - save+reload, still the same?

any of the exocrafts have any carbon in them, even if they're not around?

sounds like it might be reaching into those regardless somehow

i dont see base salvage capsule being a possibility here

[fresh birch]

I know an exocraft probably does but none are in my same galaxy. That’d be so weird

[swift sand]

how much is in there, can you double check

[fresh birch]

I just really need that carbon wherever it is lmao. Yeah I’m loading back in

This might take a moment all my exocraft are everywhere

Unless they all share an inventory

[swift sand]

nah, each has its own

[fresh birch]

So one exocraft has 880 carbon

[swift sand]

mhmm

so..

wanna test it?

[fresh birch]

Would I just move it to a different inventory?

[swift sand]

well, were you going to use it for something?

[fresh birch]

Make condensed carbon. That works too I guess

[surreal wadi]

so I've been getting random crashes, idk why, idk the cause, I sent a report to the devs but they just autoresponded with a message that did literally nothing (I followed these steps and its still crashing) so idk what to do, its annoying like itr crashes every 10-20min randomly, when I fly/walk or enter a ship any help?

[swift sand]

yeah, that should reduce the carbon stack seen by the harvester. that said:

1. i'd suggest moving on to gas extractors+supply depots: dont have to fuel them manually, but it does require a base and power. each supply depot can hold 1k material, each extractor 250. piped all together, creates a big storage network. type !faq-units in #nms-commands . every planet has o2 hotspots.
2. remember, in a 2 (or 3) input refiner, it goes carbon+o2 = more carbon; condensed carbon+o2=even more condensed carbon

Getting NMS Crash dump files

1. Press&Hold Windows key+Press R, in the Run window that appears, type %localappdata%, press Enter.
2. Open the Temp subfolder;
3. Relevant crash dump filenames will start with NMS_crash, for example NMS_crash_1771955407_161480_0x846ED-HANG_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.dmp;
4. Drag and drop the latest crash dump in the #964865106334875698 thread: be patient till someone is available to take a look.

Notes:

• While waiting, uninstall anything like OBS, Overwolf, Twitch Studio, Medal, Riva Tuner, etc. All are known to cause crashes in NMS when not completely up to date. Additionally, ensure your graphics drivers are completely up to date. Integrated graphics as well if on a laptop.
• If you didn't find a Temp folder inside %localappdata%, try %appdata% instead.
• You can also use Windows Search to find files with the dmp extension.

[surreal wadi]

didnt saw the thread

[swift sand]

that's ok, no worries

[fresh birch]

I just unlocked those modules and mean to work on it, just need gas for enriched carbon at the moment.

It was the carbon in the exocraft the harvesters were seeing. That is super strange. My suit didn’t even see that.

[swift sand]

was it in the last exocraft you had used btw?

[pastel light]

What does technology overloaded mean

[swift sand]

went over the limit of 3 upgrade modules of the same type at the same time (regardless of class)

whatever didnt overload, are technologies, and those cant overload

[fresh birch]

Maybe? Hard to say. Can throw it back in the exocraft and see if it only is the active one that does it

When I warp to my underwater base it automatically changes my active one so that’s why it’s hard to say

[swift sand]

probably is. yeah, i've seen this happen with some other things in the game, like it registering a void egg inside an active exocraft that wasnt even in the same system

[swift sand]

yeah, i hear you

in any case, a minor thing, but feel free to raise a bug report on it

!hg

Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[fresh birch]

Nah I’m just gonna throw all the fuel for stuff like this into the exocraft lmao

Jk, that truly was annoying

[desert escarp]

best way to find paradise planets?

easiest

[swift sand]

be in a lush type galaxy (e.g. eissentam; there's a featured base in the anomaly teleporter in that galaxy, "last egg" base), focus on yellow star systems, use catalog&guide to locate lush biome planets (not necessarily going to be a paradise labeled body, but could be storm free, or have infrequent storms)

[fresh birch]

Freighter scanner is the fastest way to scan a whole system imo

[swift sand]

yeah, pretty much

[pastel light]

Where do I sell my suspicious modules

[desert escarp]

open them

and then sell then on the space station

second floor

up there

[swift sand]

any upgrade module shop:

[desert escarp]

wdym last egg base? i cant see it here

[fresh birch]

It shows in the anomaly as featured at the top

[desert escarp]

ohh anomaly

[untold wadi]

Guys I need an honest answer here, people who have played both minecraft and nms answer this. What map do you guys think is bigger based on surface area(no space)

[worldly sable]

so it absolutely does not work when i'm not around?

[desert escarp]

mc 100%

[untold wadi]

Why’s that

[desert escarp]

u can actually see a whole planet with your ship

[swift sand]

yeah, you need to be around for fauna to remain spawned, and there getting fed and harvested

[desert escarp]

and well, u can try to calculate the dimensions, its not thaat big

[worldly sable]

Pffffff thats not really useful then

[swift sand]

well, it kinda depends really. remember that some animals, on some planets, will herd up. and when you're harvesting herds - it goes fast, stockpiling produce.

something like this...

[untold wadi]

Ig so but just imagine all the planets in nms as it’s around 18 quintillion planets or what I think is infinite bigger than the surface area of mc 30m blocks to the border

[desert escarp]

if we comparing ALL the planets nms wins easily

[untold wadi]

Not counting the nether/end

[worldly sable]

I don't know if it's really worth the time and ressources, might as well just handfeed them instead of building my things and do nothing next to it...

[desert escarp]

if we are comparing one planet vs overworld mc wins

[swift sand]

just fwiw, there arent that many planets "enabled" atm - that's the max it could ever "turn on" for us to see and visit

[untold wadi]

Theoretically if that were so what do you think would be bigger

[swift sand]

personally, i carry the mats to build a "portable farm". i just use biofuel reactor for those. a biofuel reactor, a livestock unit and a feeder, on a beach.. fishing.. it's like break time.

[worldly sable]

do you get the mats back when removing the farm?

[swift sand]

man, that's a lot of planets. see this image. really old, and we have planets larger than "large" now (giants).

or even this one

[desert escarp]

R-Redacted planet?!?

[untold wadi]

That’s a really good example, let’s say every planet is a medium planet, times that by 18 quintillion

[swift sand]

check !faq-biomes in #nms-commands ; a synonym for either weird or rgb biomes planets

[untold wadi]

Minecraft is only 1.5 billion square miles long

[swift sand]

it's crazy, they're not kidding when they say "an infinite universe"

[desert escarp]

red

[untold wadi]

Yeah tbf

[desert escarp]

bro said only

[fresh birch]

The whole area of Minecraft isn’t even useable area

It starts breaking down at the crazy coords

[swift sand]

alright, we're drifting offtopic a little, so from now on we should move to main chat or possibly other-games

[timber pine]

what happens if you die? lokwey, do you get put in last save or do you lose all your stuff? i havent died yet but i want to fight some sentinnels so id rather know

[swift sand]

it depends on difficulty settings. check options/difficulty/death consequences: cursor over the options

[timber pine]

aight

[swift sand]

permadeath aka death consequences=save deleted can only be set when starting a custom difficulty character

[timber pine]

thanks! ill make sure to avoid perma death!

[swift sand]

tbh, the hardest part of the game is that initial scenario: nothing on us, in a hellscape sometimes, getting out of that hole is the hardest. after that's done, we can start making use of trade terminals and npc pilots to buy mats, etc etc. making it a whole lot easier from then on

[timber pine]

also, small question, sorry for asking so many, but is it more viable to use uranium or starship launch fuel?

[timber pine]

dang

[analog scroll]

Uranium is more efficient

[timber pine]

ah, isnt fuel cheaper though?

or am i just bad at finding uranium

[desert escarp]

LETSGOO

now im praying for it to be cool

[swift sand]

i guess it could depend on your stack sizes and fuel cost difficulty settings. if you're playing with <9999 stack sizes, you might prefer to do launch fuel. but with higher fuel costs, iirc 1 launch thruster fuel doesnt fill it up to 100%. the thing with uranium is that we can find planets with it on the resource list, and find uranium deposits/hotspots, giving us the possibility to even automate uranium extraction using mineral extractors and supply depots.

[reef wave]

If i want to make a floating base, how can i know when to stop building up?

[swift sand]

first, i'd suggest watching this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsYwtKLGG6M for all the basics

the term we normally use for really high altitude bases is "low orbit base"

[reef wave]

Thanks!

[desert escarp]

i should not do a base if the terrain is not already flat, no bk?

[reef wave]

this is what i have at the moment

[reef wave]

Yeah, terrain regenerates

[fresh birch]

If you see a three star collectible named metal ‘fingers’, absolutely go for it

On a planet

[swift sand]

you could try to do something like this: make your own flat ground above the non flat ground

[fresh birch]

You’ll never be without uranium again

[swift sand]

yeah, can be uranium sometimes

[fresh birch]

When I find them it’s usually a mix of gold and uranium

Always instantly go for it lol

[swift sand]

iirc also pyrite

(which can be pulse engine fuel for most ship types)

[fresh birch]

Gold can also be made into pyrite

[swift sand]

yep yep

[arctic ridge]

Been shiphunting for the past 2 hours in an Outlaw system using navigational charts, and it seems really tedious for something that only pays 1-2,5 million units per scrap. Are there any other (legit) ways of making money in the early game? I started doing this after finishing The Voice of Freedom

[swift sand]

go sentinel ship scrapping for the big bucks in crashed ship scrapping

@arctic ridge would suggest typing !faq-interceptor in #nms-commands , follow harmonic camp link: at the bottom of that subpost, there's a section you'll want to take notice of

more suggestions, please see <#nms-questions message>

ship scrapping value depends on size of usable cargo inventory - sentinel ships have large inventories and arent ever damaged

[reef wave]

how do i know if im in low orbit?

[swift sand]

"low orbit" is just the term we use for "high altitude" bases

it's not really orbit

[reef wave]

oh ok

Still, how can i know if its a good spot, or if im on the limit

[arctic ridge]

Thanks, I'll give it a try! The shiphunting was only worth it for the chance of scoring an S class solar ship anyway

[swift sand]

if you save+reload, are all your base parts still visible, interactable with? are you still inside atmos, or is your life support perhaps draining like crazy

[reef wave]

Well yeah, i just left and re entered, everything appears normal

[swift sand]

with some nanite farming strategies, it's often faster to upgrade a lower class ship to s-class than it is to find a natural s-class. not gonna be any weaker because of it either

[swift sand]

so you're good still. as you climb and build parts further and further up, regularly save+reload, every few pieces, to see if you're still good. sometimes full game restart too, or warp out and back in.

[hearty plaza]

Is there a way to upgrade my frigates?

[half stone]

So I'm on the they who returned quest and don't have a quest marker for the marked location after getting hijacked. I'm in the right system. What should I do?

I did go to other systems but came back

[reef wave]

I spawned the Colossus on top of the tower im building, it is now stuck in the air, i guess its a low orbit colossus

[swift sand]

type !faq-frigates in #nms-commands for more infos, but in short, just keep sending them on expeditions

[hearty plaza]

Thanks

[swift sand]

1. are you playing solo? if not do so
2. what does the tooltip lower right of the screen want you to do? can you post a screenshot?

[half stone]

I have no marker 💀💀

I am playing solo

[swift sand]

weird - the current mission pathline is pointing that way though

[half stone]

Oh so I'm just stupid lmfao thank you

[swift sand]

goto a teleporter, do you have a destination that says closer to mission system?

[arctic ridge]

Any good nanite farming strategies? I know about runaway mold farming

[swift sand]

no, not at all, it's confusing me a little too. is that a autophage settlement icon perhaps?

[half stone]

Okay problem solved thanks for letting me work through that 😂😂💀

I followed the green line

[swift sand]

try sus packets tech/arms or salvaged glass farming, then unpack them and sell the upgrade modules you dont want for nanites.

[half stone]

They shouldn't have had the quest show up in the galaxy map for that system it was confusing me lol

[swift sand]

@arctic ridge the former <#nms-questions message>, the latter <#nms-questions message>

Thanks again! 🙏

[timber pine]

how long do sentinnels get reinforcments

they keep getting them

[bitter crypt]

Until you defeat the wave or the summoner sentinel

[timber pine]

oh no whats a sentinnel walker

sentinnels are scary

[burnt cloak]

My corvette keeps hitting something invisible and spazzes out

How do I rectify this?

[timber pine]

when do sentinnels despawn,

i am being camped by a walker

[bitter crypt]

when you destroy them or hide long enough for the timer to reach 0

[timber pine]

which timer

the searching timer already went to zero

they didnt disapear

[bitter crypt]

If you hide from them, a timer should appear saying that they're searching

[timber pine]

they are roaming around the base😭

[timber pine]

yeah and it ended

[bitter crypt]

sometimes it takes a bit after it hits 0

[timber pine]

they are still there

[bitter crypt]

are they still aggressive?

[wide onyx]

is there any food i can make that gives my companions mutation lvls/xp?

[timber pine]

i dunno, i am too scared to come close to them, theres a walker

[bitter crypt]

Do you have the red squares in the corner of your screen?

showing that you're wanted

[timber pine]

i dont

[bitter crypt]

Then you should be fine

[timber pine]

u sure its safe to come out?

[bitter crypt]

If they're not chasing you and don't show up as red dots on your radar, you're fine

[timber pine]

oh hes stuck

he is the only sentinnel here

if i fight him will more apear

i really wanna know what he drops

[bitter crypt]

Yes

[timber pine]

oh.

[bitter crypt]

that's how all sentinels work

[devout shuttle]

Is there any way to build power lines/grids

Like yk the old wooden ones smth like that

[timber pine]

jsus christ he is scary

[bitter crypt]

You could probably use a combination of parts, then place the wires on them

[devout shuttle]

I guess that’s true is there any way to duplicate multiple parts at once?

[bitter crypt]

nope

[timber pine]

what are some good drops from salvaged glass?

[calm wasp]

Hello,

Why not my Base Screenshots loading? .... 1 Years old Bases with screenshots and today? Not loading or very very long ... what wentr wrong?

[desert escarp]

lets say i found a planet like this one, but actually is not paradise..

[timber pine]

what are forbidden upgrades? i just got 2

[desert escarp]

scary ones ouhhhh

[devout shuttle]

Infested paradise?

[desert escarp]

yeah..

big ahh worm

but dam it looks like earth

[desert escarp]

(ignore the big worm on the right)

[calm wasp]

I cant drop egg from the Ozeanus Reward companios? Toxic Worm and Toxic biom ... tell me Wrong biom lol ??

[cerulean cliff]

I'm still progressing through the endgame autophage quest line, when you beat it do you unlock them as a customisable race with a multi-tool staff?

[calm wasp]

Nobody can help me by this question?

[cerulean cliff]

No idea

[desert escarp]

wanna know what google said?

bc idk either

[desert escarp]

@maiden summit

[maiden summit]

Thanks

[desert escarp]

np :D

the teleporter is on the anomaly btw

[reef wave]

How big is the radius of the Base Computer?

[wet star]

By default around 300u, but using base expansion tricks you can build out to 1,000

[reef wave]

how can i set a marker? and is it a circle, or a cylinder

[wet star]

The base center should have a marker of its own. And from what I recall, the radius is circular.

Or, rather, spherical.

[reef wave]

it just says, on planet (im making a low orbit base)

[wheat cove]

Note: The base radius is from its initial activation position, so if you move the base computer, the base radius doesn't move with it.

[wet star]

Do note that there is an altitude limit. It won't be obvious at first, but if you leave and return, any base parts above that limit may end up missing.

[reef wave]

i did that, no parts are missin i think

[desert escarp]

can i move faster with the camera photo mode?

[reef wave]

nevermind

i am floatin in the base

[distant pike]

Are 2x2 supercharged slots better than them being spread out?

[desert escarp]

bk told me that yes

[wet star]

Yes, since you're basically stacking the supercharge and adjacency bonuses together

[reef wave]

If i move the base computer (that is below my floating plataform), it says that there is already an existing base

[desert escarp]

where can i get frost cristal?

on cold planets while the storm event?

[calm wasp]

5 Companios from Oceanus ... i cant drop eggs and tooks 5 slots on my list.... i give away and never get back right?

[inland ermine]

Frostwort plant

On frozen planets

[supple goblet]

Hi, may i ask. I just found a planet with near 400 bases, but on my teleport gate, it can only let me tele to like 20 bases, all others keep downloading. How can i fixx this, ty

[cold storm]

So how can I use chat while on steam deck?

[distant pike]

If one system is 718,000 LY in the Euclid system and the other is 707,000 LY in the Euclid system this of course means they are at least 4000 light years away from each other, right?

[clear anvil]

eucleadian math says: yes

[distant pike]

Alright ty

[errant palm]

I have a big building on a cold planet. its all closed off but some parts think its still outside. any tips to tell it its inside ? x

[clear anvil]

iirc don't make a building that is as big or bigger than 5x5x2

[errant palm]

Its al ot bigger haha

[clear anvil]

then the game will treat the interior as being outside

[errant palm]

ah dam

[clear anvil]

while it is tempting to make huge rooms this is one of the reasons not to do it

[errant palm]

I have no choice haha

do heaters exsist?

[clear anvil]

yes

[errant palm]

Oh yeah where ?

[clear anvil]

either unlock them on the anomaly or maybe randomly on derelict freighters, not sure

i'ld check the anomaly first

[errant palm]

on my way (:

[inland ermine]

Derelicts

As a blueprint from random loot pool

[errant palm]

Dam better go hunting

[worldly sable]

Is there a way to tell which station has which guild or do i need to remember

[inland ermine]

Sadly, you'll have to remember

[cerulean cliff]

It would be great if there was a way to see which teleportation area was closest to the centre of the galaxy you are in, but I've already beaten the main story so I wouldn't need it

[distant pike]

Bro the void egg isn’t activating starbirth

[distant pike]

Name the system guild

And the station will change name

[desert escarp]

how can i delete a whire

wire

[distant pike]

Press aim button while in editing

Well are u in console

Or keyboard

Yea ur on steam idk the pc key binds

[uncut kiln]

i last played that industrial waste expedition, after that there are no new expedition in nms right?

[desert escarp]

keyboard

[mental forum]

Anyone know when another expedition will be available?

[bitter crypt]

We do not know

[dark holly]

okay my crashing is getting more and more common

happens most when tabbing in and out a lot

[desert escarp]

is this unlockable on the anomaly? i did not saw it

[wet star]

Yes. Check all tabs very closely.

[latent goblet]

I'm highly guessing english isn't your first language, regardless. Huehue...Saw it

[desert escarp]

what

[weak cloud]

NMS sometimes doesn't seem to like that. I've found tabbing out from the "pause"/catalog/log menu has been better for my game performance. I wish Discord still had it's chat game overlay.

[cerulean cliff]

You know with building up a settlement

Do you just

Tank all of the debt

[desert escarp]

can i do more bateries?

[cerulean cliff]

Everything requires you to wait so like eventually there'll be a point where my settlement will make more units than it costs to run

[desert escarp]

or better?

[dark holly]

still doesnt work perfectly

[dark holly]

mhm, upgrade the big factories to s class first, itl get u out of debt the fastest

[cerulean cliff]

Jesus

There's no strategy here? It's just waiting until it becomes profitable? 😭

[tranquil walrus]

Hi , what best way for collecting salvage data for unlock buildings. Taking forever haha

[desert escarp]

i miss bk201

[stuck berry]

Just driving between buried technology modules in an exocraft really

[desert escarp]

hi grouch

[tranquil walrus]

Nw was hoping there was a faster way 👍 ty

[clear anvil]

over time more and more building opportunities will occur and a lot of them will improve productivity, the cost does not get deducted from your own money, settlements have their own purse

[desert escarp]

if i conect a batery on other batery etc
batery>batery>batery>batery>thing that uses energy
does it work normaly or im just wasting tons of energy?

[clear anvil]

batteries will stack that way, as long as you create enough energy so that the batteries are loaded you are fine

[desert escarp]

they all are unloading at the same time

and i conected them in serie

[clear anvil]

yes, but as long as not all of them go empty you are fine

[desert escarp]

oh nice

they all will be empty at the same time tho

[stuck berry]

The order that you connect batteries in doesn't matter

[somber gulch]

Is it possible to get a settlement on a planet with dissonance?

[stuck berry]

same with any other powered thing, it's all a network

[clear anvil]

just make sure that your battery power will be high enough to last through a night if you use solar power

[desert escarp]

i did

grouch

you know if i can get better bateries or similar

[stuck berry]

There's just Batteries, no extra versions

[desert escarp]

ahww

[clear anvil]

there is only one battery type

[stuck berry]

you could upgrade to using EM generators instead

there's almost always an EM hotspot within 1,000u

[somber gulch]

I'm going to try to find one on this planet

[desert escarp]

i think 18 solar panels works

[stuck berry]

Then you absolutely should be able to find one

just land on it and use a settlement chart

[somber gulch]

Thanks!

[wise reef]

What CPU do you have?

[dark holly]

pc specs:
ryzen 9 5950x
radeon 6900 xt sapphire extreme toxic edition
64gb of ram

its only near my cities tho

:/

the game really cant handle 6.5k parts rahhh

[wise reef]

OK, different issue then. Games started crashing with increasing frequency for me, Being noticeable in January and getting worse and worse by the week

Turned out my 14th gen Intel CPU was fried

13th and 14th gen had that design issue where they degraded uper fast

Did a warranty replace and issues disappeared

[calm wasp]

Why i cant change skin for my Companion?

[austere grove]

Does NMS separate players by different game modes? cus i saw a lot of people in Permadeath mode but none when using custom gamemode in anomaly i dont see any players.... or my game bugging ??

[stuck berry]

Permadeath is separate, yes

all others can play with each other

[stuck berry]

In what way?

[calm wasp]

how i can change skin of my companion? Gold in Gen splitter = Useless same skin like the mother

[stuck berry]

What creature is it?

do you have an image of it?

[stuck berry]

Idk then, it should just work

it could be some sort of bug, not sure

[calm wasp]

This 2 pictures... left mother roght side the juvenlile....

idk which ressource i can change the skin

[desert escarp]

how can i farm navigation data?

[stuck berry]

That looks like the colors that Gold gives

[desert escarp]

easily

[calm wasp]

i need a new skin not the color

[stuck berry]

Place barrel fabricators and open them

[calm wasp]

Base computer on Navigations Cubes

red cubes

[desert escarp]

huh

[desert escarp]

do i need to unlock them?

[calm wasp]

Place a base computer neabry on this one

[stuck berry]

Yes, at the Construction Research Station aboard the Space Anomaly on page 8

[desert escarp]

ohh

[stuck berry]

You'll also need an AtlasPass v1 or higher

[desert escarp]

then i need to farm salvaged data Xd

[desert escarp]

ohh i saw those one time idk where

[calm wasp]

i got a base computer on 30 of them

[desert escarp]

name or how can i reach it?

[summer lantern]

ummm, why is it red?

[dark holly]

just did a LOT of diagnostics using htop and atop

nothing really out of the ordinary

aside from nms really liking to push certain cores to 98% for a second or 2 lmao

[desert escarp]

you cant collet it ig

[summer lantern]

except i did pickup the multitool expansion despite being red

[desert escarp]

then idk

[half stone]

Deleted my question because a relog fixed it

[summer lantern]

Ah

made me think i was replying to an old question

[wet sigil]

display bug I think

[simple path]

Does anyone wanna play

[fair wraith]

It seems i've not had to charge a portal in a long time - something change?

[stuck berry]

not really

[fair wraith]

Interesting. I'm doing system survey work for a newer Civ and using portals at about 20-25 per day for the last 4 weeks and have not had to charge once

[stuck berry]

especially if you only use one portal

[fair wraith]

Ahhhh...

[dark holly]

I think i know why i keep crashing

[stuck berry]

IME using a different portal makes the game forget the charging of your previous one sometimes

[dark holly]

the game is tweaking the hell out loading all the parts while im doing stuff so the fix is for me to stand still for a few seconds until everything is loaded then its mostly stable sometimes

ima turn of my mods tho as advised per the game for a sec

[buoyant terrace]

what is your guys smallest planet?

[desert escarp]

is the atlas quest just pressing a button a lot of times?

[uneven forge]

how do I switch between ships

im new and js made my first corvette

[stuck berry]

Quick menu > summon vehicles > swap ships

[dark holly]

dumb question, my crashes keep giving me this error (EVEN THO IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MODS)

happens on a lot of parts being loaded/unloaded

probable cause?

[deft current]

Quick Q, how do i give someone a MT..?

[stuck berry]

Not possible

at best, you can lead them to the cabinet of one

[stuck berry]

Mine also says this despite not having crashed in a while outside of mod testing

[silver bluff]

how do i get additional living ships

[dark holly]

heres a crash in action of above scenario

only happens in the big ass city

ik it VERY likely has to do with loading and unloading too many parts

but how do i avoid it

[stuck berry]

Buy another Void Egg from the Quicksilver Synthesis Companion and pulse in space #nms-questions message

[dark holly]

especially cause sometimes i cant cause itl just crash randomly looking in a direction in my city

[stuck berry]

For that, possible lower the Base Complexity graphics option by one notch and test

[silver bluff]

do i gotta do the whole starbirth questline again?

[dark holly]

lowering the base complexity in a major city is crazy work but ill try it and get back to you

[stuck berry]

No, you just have to pulse and it will instantly mark a living ship crash site

just that the living ship will cost 10,000 nanites instead of being free to claim

if you don't like the living ship it marks, you can refuse and it will return the void egg to your inventory, allowing you to retry your search

[dark holly]

its inconsistent to reproduce even on ultra :/

i cant get it on either rn

[drifting tapir]

If i made the drive to go to red stellar bodies and then made the upgrade of that for green ones, can I delete the red one?

Or do i gotta have both

Sorry if thats confusing

[uneven forge]

thx

[knotty frigate]

either it takes really long for the squid ship to show

or

I put the wrong coordinates in

[dark holly]

u got any ideas which could work which wont hide half my city? @stuck berry

why does it spike a core to 100%

it appears to be happening when exiting the build camera most of the time

[drifting tapir]

:3

[dark holly]

YEA

the crashes happen because it randomly spikes a core to 100%

what the rfuck game

[stuck berry]

I wish I did

[stuck berry]

You can see your coordinates in the lower left of photo mode, along with your current galaxy

[knotty frigate]

I think I put the right one in

[stuck berry]

exotic ships are a 1 in 301 chance to spawn every time a ship spawns piloted by an npc, and each system only has one exotic ship design, so if you haven't seen one then keep waiting

[deft current]

Does that also work for MTs in the Big Red Sentinel Silos..?

[knotty frigate]

reference image

[dark holly]

apperantly it saves a log crash file somewhere in the /logs folder but i have no idea which

lemme check rq

[hushed cave]

are S class sentinel ships similar in general stats compared to exotic ships or is one by definition supposed to have stats that are better than the other

[stuck berry]

Different stat bonus % ranges

that and sentinels handle fundamentally differently

[dark holly]

-# conveniently these basically dont matter

-# or at least quite little

[stuck berry]

pretty much, tbh the actual ship top speeds matter more imo

[hushed cave]

🙏

[dark holly]

reported it to zendesk

for now ill build using high part instead of ultra part complexity because im just building and not doing screenshots

[buoyant terrace]

Rate the paradise guideee

[stuck berry]

Lots and lots and LOTS of misinfo.

No offense, but horrible

Stellar class misinfo is all false, it's meaningless

Just look for G or F, never worry about the variance of it or the stuff after

[buoyant terrace]

Well i didnt make it so non taken lol

[stuck berry]

Whoever made it is spreading a many years old myth that was proven false years ago by modders who have reverse engineered the game's exe's functions and seed system

[buoyant terrace]

I believed it

Is it actually false?

[stuck berry]

To my knowledge, completely

all modders I speak to are always surprised it's still being spread, was proven false ages ago

and multiple times

[buoyant terrace]

I see

[stuck berry]

Basically, disregard the guide and treat any yellow star as something that could have ideal lush worlds

[buoyant terrace]

Okay, sorry for sending it.

Well i emailed hello games for a explination

[stuck berry]

Well as I described above, we already know

randomly generated things specific to each star with zero meaning

[weak cloud]

The only think that matters is the stellar class capital letter (G, F, etc.) because that tells you the in-game star color. Everything else is unsubstantiated conjecture somewhat based on the classification of stars in real life astronomy. But No Man's Sky stars aren't like real life stars. As Grouch said, it's randomly generated text in the game.

[long notch]

should i do the voice of freedom questline? if i do will it negatively effect my gameplay in anyway?

[dark holly]

no questline in the game has negative long term consequences on ur gameplay

only positive ones

[long notch]

Ok thx

[boreal cave]

Has anyone been to Odyalutai?

[unique rock]

Is there a site or area I can request a ship. Trying to get a Starborn Runner.

[tropic ginkgo]

as players do know what the galaxy is called, someone has been there
what is the actual question

[tropic ginkgo]

#nms-lfg-or-trades or use the service bot (Runner is only available in the paid version of the app)

[boreal cave]

That is my question, it's the hidden 256th Galaxy and I'm trying to find someone who's been there so I can go there too

[wheat cove]

Starcabs could probably give you a lift, see #nms-commands message

[fallow maple]

I could give u a lift if u still need 1

[long horizon]

If I sent the coordinates for a paradise planet what are the odds of the community going to the planet and building based because I want my planet to look like it's got actual citys and stuff

[distant pike]

Does anyone know why starbirth isn’t starting?

Non activated void egg in pulse drive

And it’s in my inventory

[wheat cove]

Have you done the quest already?

[stuck berry]

Depends on how pretty it is and how much you can get people to care about it/see it

[long horizon]

Fair enough ty

[distant pike]

Yes 2 times

Is there a cooldown between starting the quest?

[stuck berry]

Then see the things in this post about stuff that can stop it #nms-questions message

[distant pike]

I don’t see anything that would stop it

[stuck berry]

Then idk. Sometimes extra void eggs (especially the cracking ones from the mission that forget to delete themselves) or the dream aerial can confuse it

[deft current]

Do Baby Fauna ever grow up to their normal sizes as Pets..? If so, how long does it take..

[stuck berry]

They do, yes. This time can vary between creature types I think, nobody's ever determined exact specifics but it ranges from a few days to like 2 weeks or smth

[deft current]

Tyvm! So, if i entice a baby creature into being a Pet i just have to wait and it'll become normal size..? Do elderly Pets die of old age..?

[stuck berry]

Pets cannot die, no

[distant pike]

Can I not get someone else’s activated void egg then restart mission using nearby structures?

[stuck berry]

That wouldn't give you the mission

[distant pike]

Hmm

Idk what to do then

I’ve been trying to start starbirth since yesterday night

Do I maybe need space

For a ship?

Cause I’m at 12/12 rn

I’ll try to salvage a ship

And then do it

[stuck berry]

I don't think that's something that the mission checks/cares about, but maybe

[distant pike]

I genuinely don’t know what to do bruh

[stuck berry]

Possibly post in https://discord.com/channels/146101654981312513/964865106334875698 and await a response, since it could take more troubleshooting

[primal locust]

Did you do all the primary missions?

[stuck berry]

Not a factor.

[river canyon]

You can archive ships in your freighter

[primal locust]

Did you buy the egg yourself or somebody gave it to you?

[distant pike]

This way I get cash to give beggars in the anomaly tho

[distant pike]

Someone gave it to me

But it’s not activated

[stuck berry]

If it just says "Void Egg" then it should be fine

[primal locust]

I dunno. Anything can glitch it. My expedition is glitched, lets me resume the remnant expedition still.

[primal locust]

You can try buying an egg yourself, and see if it works or not.

[distant pike]

I’m out of quests to get quicksilver tho

[primal locust]

All primary missions done? Just checking.

[distant pike]

Yes

Atlas path and main story finished

[stuck berry]

It would be the exact same item, so that wouldn't change anything

and again, other mission progress is not a factor

[distant pike]

I’ll try to restart the game

[stuck berry]

The correct item is this, if what you have doesn't differ from this then you're fine on that part

[distant pike]

Yeah that’s what I have

Yesterdsy I completed starbirth for a second time

Maybe I need to wait a bit

Before starting it again

Idk

[stuck berry]

Not how it works (people spam it to document living ship locations) but idk

the main things are to check if you still have any extra Void Eggs, especially the weird prefix versions of it, and check if you have a Dream Aerial somewhere, both in any of your inventories

[distant pike]

Should I remove all the fragile things I got from the first one cause some of them duplicated

They’re not in my own inventory or starship but it’s worth a try

[stuck berry]

Yes

discard those, they are useless

[long nova]

Question. What's the best current exosuit tech layout ? It's a bit hard to find one without old tech. Ty !

Found a video. (Sorry for that)

[distant pike]

FINALLY

OH MY GOD

AFTER 3 HOURS

[stuck berry]

Personally haven't found anything better than this, but this is for jetpack stuff and hazard protection

[heady lagoon]

Does anyone know when and/or what the next expedition is?

[wet sigil]

we don't

[tropic ginkgo]

the players have no way of knowing that as HG doesn't share that information until an expedition is released

[stuck berry]

[worldly sable]

Do I need to do something specific to find a planet with activated quartzite or lithium?

Or are those just really rare

[stuck berry]

You can only find those in purple star systems, which do not exist on the galaxy map until a certain mission is completed that comes after the main story #nms-commands message

[worldly sable]

Damn

[lethal grotto]

can someone help me i need some exo suit build but i dont know what value to aim for ive grinded for a while and ahve a lot of time to farm so it'd be kind if someone just drop me an exosuit build that has a very specific stats to aim for -thanks-

[swift sand]

here's an example <#nms-questions message>

also type !faq-suitllayout in #nms-commands

[wet sigil]

There is also no "build", there aren't enough techs in the game to require the user to "choose" on the macroscopic scale, you can fit basically all the important stuff into exosuit's 60 slots, with only few standalone techs that's optional and to taste of the player

[lethal grotto]

what stats do you use for rebuilt exosuit module

im trying to get a good one first

[wet sigil]

The Autophage and Sentinel modules?

[lethal grotto]

ye ye

i spent some time farming them dont know what stats to aim for tho

[wet sigil]

Life Support, Shield strength, Solar Panel Power and Sprint Distance

Shield Strength is 100% mandatory, Life Support is 99% mandatory for me.

I used to use fuel efficiency but I was never able to roll a good % on this stat while the other 3 has high rolls.

Core Health OTOH is as effective as not having any at all in its place, I treat it as a blank stat

[lethal grotto]

so core health is basically nothing ?

just useless ?

[wheat cove]

Not entirely, but it's very easy to cap

[wet sigil]

The stat itself is useful, but you can max it out without ever needing for them to appear on Sentinel and autophage

[lethal grotto]

so i roll em on other tech?

[wet sigil]

Rememberance and star seed placed side by side, plus the 3 shield techs, is enough to max core health out

[lethal grotto]

so theres a cap to stats

i see =))

[wet sigil]

Provided of course, you have core health on the shields, this is not a concern for S rank shield techs since they always appear on it, but on X ranks you may want to make sure core health si on it

[wet sigil]

For health specifically there is a cap, I do not believe there are caps on other stats

[lethal grotto]

is this even a good roll?

still mid right?

[wet sigil]

The values are pretty high

you may set that aside, but lack of shields means you would have to place it in the corner or in the middle, since it can't get adjacency bonus from shield techs directly (AFAIK), so you may need to use other sentinel/autophage techs to provide the adjacency

[lethal grotto]

can you use some less advance English im not so good at English in general

😅

[wet sigil]

The max values of Life support is 110, sprint distance 60, solar panel 75 and fuel efficiency I think is 31

[gray shoal]

U can see max stats for modules in catalouge tab - technology section

[lethal grotto]

damn

ii just check it out

but some stats are hidden

anyway to see em ?

[wet sigil]

Adjacency bonus is: techs get more powerful when they are placed next to another that boost the same thing, if you see the image here, you will see that the shield, sentinel and autophage are placed in a 3x3 in the bottom left hand corner. For those techs, the Sentinel and autophase only get boosted by the shield upgrade when they have either Shield Strength or Core Health stats on them, since I black listed Core Health, that means shield strength is mandatory, because otherwise shield upgrade won't boost them.

[wet sigil]

Stats are not hidden, the sentinel and autophage techs can only have 4 stats maximum

[gray shoal]

If module can have more than 4 possible stats . The other stats are showed in lower class

[lethal grotto]

i mean they only display some and i cant seem to find out the way to see the other stats in the catalouge

[wet sigil]

Check between Autophage and Sentinel

see if they have different stat on their catalogue. They share the exact same stat pools

[lethal grotto]

i think i they share the same stats pool

life support tank cap at 110 per module right?

[lethal grotto]

yo

can you drop the link rq

tbh i cant even find any websites to look for

i think i want to ask one more

are there any ways to install module fast like you just click and its installed

you dont have to hold and drag

[stuck berry]

Never have had to hold, at least since the "hold for destructive" option was added

[stuck berry]

https://nomanssky.miraheze.org/wiki/Template:ExosuitTechUpgrades

[lethal grotto]

thanks mate

[swift sand]

you could even go always instant on hold to confirm

[lethal grotto]

yo does solar power buff only apply to solar panels at base ???

[swift sand]

decreases movement drain when on daytime

[lethal grotto]

so your sprint bar goes down slower?

[swift sand]

your life support bar

[lethal grotto]

oh

okay

bruh

i rolled so many good stats together

but not once i see max fuel efficient with life support and sprint and also shield

🙏

[vernal nacelle]

Good, and now what i would do is pick off C class upgrades and swap in S if possible

Cuz C class add to your limit

[unique fjord]

Hi, I need some help. I created a corvette, then went off in my regular ship to farm some resources, and when I returned to the space station, it wasn't there, and it told me there were no corvettes docked there lol

So I saved it and stuff, and now I'm on the mission, and it tells me to decorate the inside, but I can't because I don't have it lol

[vernal nacelle]

Quick menu/summon vehicles/switch docked ship may work

If that aint work

!hg

[tulip dust]

Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[unique fjord]

yes is that ty bro, and sorry you are the best!!

[vernal nacelle]

Ur welcome

Nms is such a glitchy game

[tranquil walrus]

@stuck berry you seem knowledgeable lol.. trying to make a good one lol.. advice welcome

[vernal nacelle]

That seems good, but i would pick out the c class and put in s or sentinal

The upgrades, or course

[stuck berry]

The C is most likely the Barrel Ionizer, a blueprint

[tranquil walrus]

Yes swapping them out as I find them

[vernal nacelle]

Eh, i saw a couple more, but that one pulse spitter c is REALLY usefull, i keep it in ny combat multitools

[stuck berry]

I'd advise to possibly focus on only one or two main weapon types instead of all of them, especially since one will always be better if one is in supercharged slots

[vernal nacelle]

Is this a every day use multi tool, combat, mining, what is this for?

[stuck berry]

Also if that Boltcaster A-Class module is the "Boltcaster Ricochet Module" then you can absolutely installl one more S-Class upgrade module, unless that C-Class one is an upgrade and not the Barrel Ionizer

[tranquil walrus]

Oops sorry that wrong one haha... This is one I'm trying build lol

[stuck berry]

You can see if things are upgrades or not by if their subtitle says "(Class) (Tech) Upgrade"

[vernal nacelle]

Seems good, too. Royals have more combat then pistols

[tranquil walrus]

So I can't put 2 that have same description right?

[vernal nacelle]

No

It fails

[stuck berry]

That one is indeed going swimmingly, though you can install the Barrel Ionizer to add a bit more to it's stats, as well as the sentinel upgrades gotten from salvaged glass, gained from collecting the canisters from dead sentinels

[vernal nacelle]

Yeh sentinal upgrades, obtained from salveged glass

[stuck berry]

Also, supercharging the main weapon module is more optimal than supercharging a weapon's upgrades. This goes for all ship and tool weapons except for the Neutron Cannon

[vernal nacelle]

If you dont wana kill sentinals for the glass, i can give you some later for the upgrades, if so, ping me in #nms-lfg-or-trades or dm me, il be on later, may also have some upgrades

[tranquil walrus]

Gaining knowledge love it.. I have lots of glass. First thing I did last week when I started was build a nice ship to fight

[vernal nacelle]

To fight... Pirates? Interceptors?

[stuck berry]

The sentinel MT upgrades only improve the Boltcaster, but they count as different upgrades so you can install 3 of those too

their stats are very random (similar to illegal upgrades), so it may be good to install a bunch, then dismantle the lower stat ones

[tranquil walrus]

Do I unlock them or buy them from somewhere

[vernal nacelle]

Sentinal upgrades?

[stuck berry]

No, you get them from opening Salvaged Glass in your inventory

[vernal nacelle]

Yes

[tranquil walrus]

Haha ok

[vernal nacelle]

Obtained from destroying sentinal units (any kind, drone, mech, quad, but not walker)

[tranquil walrus]

Ye I've got 19 of them I've just been dumping in a vault

Definitely give u random stuff 😀

[tranquil walrus]

I ate a donut an got this from 6 moulds so got 9 more minutes to keep farming them

[gleaming yarrow]

The infinite settlement attack is happening again...
difficulty: normal
trace of metal: completed and not in the mission register
i've tried 2 times the old solution and it didn't work...
help?

[swift sand]

i had similar issues after beacon update; in short, i just ignored it, and it eventually despawned/stopped "blocking" the settlement

[gleaming yarrow]

okkk thanks

i'll ignore it

[dark holly]

update update, it is 100% solely just it unloading base parts fast and slowly
on high base complexity i dont get a single issue (BUUUT, i do fall through the ground)

[merry nest]

hey btw, idk if you want to use it as it is kind of cheesy, but theres a way to essentially guarantee that the "random" upgrade from sentinel upgrades, black market upgrades, and autophage upgrades are good upgrades. If you'd like to use it i have the link to the reddit page that describes how to do it or i could just tell you how to do it. not that difficult, and everything is possible to do ingame with no third party software

[desert escarp]

exotic ships spawns 1 per abandoned planet no?

[merry nest]

go to pirate system basically guaranteed exotic ship

[desert escarp]

oh

[merry nest]

1 per system

yeah just in the station

[stuck berry]

In abandoned systems they only spawn in the form of crash sites, and they're not guaranteed

[stuck berry]

Outlaw Systems have the same exotic ship spawn chance as all other inhabited systems

[analog scroll]

Exotic ships are a 1 in 301 spawn in every populated system

[boreal cave]

@fallow maple That would be awesome if you could, sorry for the late reply

[desert escarp]

another pirate ship :O

can i have more than 1 freighter? no, no?

[fallow maple]

yea u on?

[boreal cave]

@fallow maple Will be in just a sec, had to talk to my boss

[stuck berry]

No, you can only have up to one freighter

[desert escarp]

ahwww

[stuck berry]

Attempting to claim/buy a new one will always present the "Exchange" option

[boreal cave]

@fallow maple I dmd you

[supple goblet]

may i ask, which type of planet is the worst to live in

ty

[gray shoal]

The one u like the least

[wet sigil]

I would say Deep oceans

[tranquil walrus]

Please that be great. I'm definitely up for learning new things

[distant pike]

What’s the easiest way to power underwater buildings bc idk if it’s supposed to be this complicated or if I’m just stupid

[supple goblet]

i want to build my new living house on the worst planet XD

[supple goblet]

i still use solar panels XD

[tranquil walrus]

Probably ones with aggressive sentimental lol

[distant pike]

Where do you put them

[supple goblet]

u mean waterworld?

[supple goblet]

indoor, it still work indoor XD

[distant pike]

Oh wow

Don’t I need to cable that

Like wire it to the building?

[gray shoal]

Whatever. They will work even underground

[stuck berry]

Probably any non-lush infested world with both extreme storms and aggressive sentinels

[supple goblet]

i want aggrassive weather and hosstile flora and fauna too XD

[distant pike]

Do you need one inside every building?

[stuck berry]

I still gotta find one that has this and predatory fauna and ancient bones

[supple goblet]

oh god, its beautiful, a perfect place to build a farm, ty :3 XD

[stuck berry]

No, you only need 2 solar panel and 1 battery for every 50kPs

the power and it's consumption is shared by the whole network

[supple goblet]

may i ask where do u find infested worlds, like what color system it will be? ty

[stuck berry]

Any really, chances aren't different between star colors for that I think

each of the main six biomes (Scorched, Frozen, Toxic, Irradiated, Barren and Lush) have their own infested subbiome. Ones that are infested have different biome names than normal #nms-commands message

[supple goblet]

oh, so there is more than one way to be infested, naisu, oki, i will try to find more. ty for the answers, have a nice day

[wet sigil]

Yes, the ones that spawns only in purple oceans,

[supple goblet]

oki, ty :3, have a nice day

[desert escarp]

how much time i need to wait until an exotic arrives?

in on a outlaw system

[desert escarp]

i found a paradise infected for example, very cool ngl

[supple goblet]

woah, paradise can be infected??? naisu XD

[desert escarp]

Yeaah

i think i found other too, idk where

i can try to find it in my logs if u want the tp

[supple goblet]

it usually took me arround 20 minutes if i dont reload save point

[supple goblet]

no, ty, but i think i will try to find one since i want to name it XD

[desert escarp]

oh i didnt name it i think

not even uploaded

[supple goblet]

dont worry, i will try to find one, give me a thing to enjoy the game too XD, ty for the support

[desert escarp]

okaayy gll

[tranquil walrus]

Although I've been playing almost a week now I have literally just been doing a settlement and my own things. I haven't done any missions yet but I'm about to. Any recommendations of which would be the best mission to go with first. I have 3 main missions on there an tons of other mini ones..
Recommendations anyone

[desert escarp]

atlas

follow the truth

[tranquil walrus]

No worries I'll give that a go tyvm

[stuck berry]

Same time as any other inhabited system

[boreal cave]

I would say work on getting a void egg from the anomaly and start doing your living ship since that takes forever to do

[desert escarp]

are there "dragon" living ships?

or only the rounded ones?

[stuck berry]

Kinda? Infested lush worlds can't get the Paradise Planet/Moon name that's normally given by having no storms and low sentinel activity. One of their own names is "Infested Paradise" but this doesn't align with storm/sentinel presence. They can still lack storms and have low sentinel activity though, like basically every other type of planet

[boreal cave]

I think they all look relatively the same, it's really just the color that changes but you can get a living freighter

[tranquil walrus]

Some one on FB giving them living ships away. Didn't realise u could give them

[desert escarp]

A LIVING FREIGHTER?

[merry nest]

awh i just always happened to find one immediately on outlaw stations

[stuck berry]

Those are not in the game, there are only living ships and living/organic frigates

[boreal cave]

As far as I've seen you can't just give ships, you have to sell it to an NPC at a space station and someone else buys it from the NPC but that hasn't been working.

[desert escarp]

i cant get a living freighter? :C

[supple goblet]

oh, understood :3 ty, im on my way searching for the planet will eliminate me when i step my foot on, ty XD

[boreal cave]

And you have to do a 3 star expedition to get a living freighter from what I've read

[tranquil walrus]

Didn't know they was a thing haha learn so much to day

[stuck berry]

Not living freighter, living frigate. Also this is not specifically required, completion of any frigate expedition has a chance to award the Dream Aerial blueprint that's required to encounter your first living frigate

[boreal cave]

Ok I was wrong, it's a organic frigate.

Oh ok, ya I only read part of it at first but either way lol

[inland ermine]

Can the dream Aerial despawn?

I swear I had one and I cannot find it anywhere

Definitely did not use it

[stuck berry]

Only if you discard it or give it to another player or sell it manually

or well, lose it by dying

[shell spear]

will we ever get a way to create open space habs in corvettes without doing a glitch cause it looks so cool

[real hemlock]

how do i upgrade my freighter

well acxtually where

[boreal cave]

Go on it to the freighter upgrade computer on the bridge

[real hemlock]

ok ty

[boreal cave]

Np, also to rank up their class you send them on expeditions

[stuck berry]

You will need Salvaged Frigate Modules to purchase the blueprint technology #nms-questions message
There are also freighter upgrade modules that mainly improve fleet coordination stats and hyperdrive range #nms-commands message

[stuck berry]

We cannot send our freighter on expeditions, and it is impossible to increase our own freighter's class

[boreal cave]

I'm talking about your fleet, my bad

[wide onyx]

do waterworlds have portals?

[distant pike]

Anyone know why ladders work weirdly under water?

I can’t exit them I can only go all the way down

[stuck berry]

Yes, they do. These are the only worlds that have them underwater

[wide onyx]

sick

[wide onyx]

probably not meant to be there

and a bug

[tulip dust]

Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[wide onyx]

have you tried climbing up and down on a ladder in another spot?

could be a problem with that spot or ladder

[real hemlock]

how do i get modules i can use to exchange for corvette advanced parts

[stuck berry]

Locate and mine Salvage Containers on worlds that list Salvageable Scrap as a resource

[real hemlock]

alr ty

[stuck berry]

You could use an existing corvette for this, as the weapons (especially the cyclotron ballista) have a blast radius that can reach the buried modules

[wide onyx]

i tried to teleport to a waterworld but it put me in a approx location system, i alr have the purple systems unlocked, what do i do?

[stuck berry]

just get out of the seat, mark one using your analysis visor, fly over to it and shoot it

[wide onyx]

i also have the atantid drive so that isnt the problem

[stuck berry]

You typed the coordinates incorrectly, or it's one of the few systems that can't be reached due to an off by one error in the portal system

[stuck berry]

Having the Atlantid Drive installed on your current starship is not a factor

what is, is having completed the mission "In Stellar Multitudes" that makes purple star systems appear on the galaxy map and become reachable via portal #nms-commands message

[wide onyx]

mhm

ill retry it

maybe i put it wrong

[stuck berry]

or you are in the wrong galaxy

or again, it could be the final purple system in the list

[wide onyx]

yeaa thats the problem

i was in hilbert

[stuck berry]

portals are not intergalactic, fundamentally

[wide onyx]

👍

thanks

anything to worry about in waterworlds?

mainly creatures

[stuck berry]

not at all, outside of the regular abyssal horrors that are triggered by their weird plants

their main challenge is their insane pressure that drains life support many multitudes faster than normal at their depths

[wide onyx]

so my descent to the floor wont have any subnautica level experience?

[desert escarp]

does it take that long? im still waiting

[stuck berry]

long for what?

[desert escarp]

exotic ship to apear in the station outlaw

[stuck berry]

As I said before, Outlaw Systems have the exact same spawn chances for Exotic ships as all other inhabited systems

[wide onyx]

exotic chances are same, js the S class chances are higher

[stuck berry]

Though space stations are less ideal due to them spawning ships a bit slower, and outlaw stations have even less landing pads which can hurt that a bit

a trading outpost will always be better IMO, and you can save + reload after 5 ships have landed to force more to spawn and land

[desert escarp]

So i should just wait untill it apears, no?

[wide onyx]

you could

but trading outposts are superior

[desert escarp]

when you say inhabited systems, wdym

[stuck berry]

Systems that have a race icon

[wheat cove]

You can fly to a trading post (but not land), wait for the ships to fly in - if no exotic, fly a bit away and back again

[stuck berry]

systems that lack a race icon are Uncharted Systems, they lack a space station as well as all structures except portals

[wide onyx]

i found a pretty big bug, midway through In Stellar Multitudes I went to the hilbert dimension

now its telling to anchor the space anomaly there

[shell spear]

how do i get rid of this big ahh door in my corvette

[stuck berry]

Possibly go to any teleporter and go to the destination that says "closest to mission"

[stuck berry]

Possibly not, you are not meant to be able to place that in a corvette and they cannot be removed without already being attached to a freighter room

[shell spear]

oh no :(

[wide onyx]

ik, but the station it sent to me was in hilbert and all the teleporters in my base (euclid) all only showed hilber stations ive visited, its like both galaxies merged 😔

the whole mission reset and its pointing me to a gas giant in hilber

even though that isnt the system i originally used for the mission

[desert escarp]

far planet

fart

[stuck berry]

Then go there

[wide onyx]

i did

rly weird though

[shell spear]

i just fixed it by making it my teleport room lol. anyone have ideas on how i can further hide it?

[gentle stratus]

Hehe

[desert escarp]

grouch, atlas missions are infinite? bc i did tons and it does not stop

shi be looong

[analog scroll]

Atlas Eternal is Eternal

[stuck berry]

The Atlas Path has an ending, and once that is reached it becomes Atlas Eternal which goes on forever

[wide onyx]

euclid teleporters showing hilbert, my mission gas giant showing up in hilbert with a whole new mission planet, my mission resetting

its like it went from euclid to hilbert

without doing anything

[desert escarp]

ignore missions, build a big city

[real hemlock]

is this where i upgrade the freighter class

[analog scroll]

You cannot upgrade the class on a freighter

[real hemlock]

what whyyy

[analog scroll]

Dev decision

[desert escarp]

I'll give you my homework, but don't copy it ahh ships

[real hemlock]

aw mines only b class

[shell spear]

hey guys do yall think you can land on my corvette ?

[stuck berry]

Yes, but the landed ship will not be attached to the corvette

this is not an intended mechanic

[shell spear]

why not

[stuck berry]

because the devs did not do it

[shell spear]

oh

also guys where is the trading terminal in build menu

[stuck berry]

Most likely their vision of corvettes are another type of starship, not freighters but smaller. The regularly allowed size for corvettes displays this, as well as the fact that you can only have one primary starship at a time still.

[stuck berry]

advanced technology, at the bottom I think

[shell spear]

okay thanks :) now i can finally trade.. i am kinda still sad that my corvette is stuck with a big ahh freighter door

do yall think my corvette is cool :)

[merry dome]

atlas interference detected, but no atlas or anything around me? why?

[stuck berry]

Just a weird thing that happens when close to somewhere a pulse event recently happened

boost away and you should be able to pulse again

[merry dome]

i boosted about 40k since sending that and like 10k before and it didnt make a difference

nevermind, worked

[wide onyx]

good start ig, but maybe work on exterior design?

[shell spear]

okay :D its my first corvette. its so cool to have a physical ship with tleporter and trading terminal

[stuck berry]

Possibly reload your autosave then

[wide onyx]

yepp, those are always nice

a quick tip

watch tutorials

some building techniques like 1/2 or 1/4 grid placements are insanely useful

lets you squish reactors into eachother compactly

hiding them

[shell spear]

also i completed the atlas storyline bt the artemis translator calibration is making me travel like 15 galaxies or smth

[stuck berry]

Go to any teleporter and go to the destination that says "closer to mission"

[shell spear]

not a single destination says that

[stuck berry]

And you have the mission tracked in your log?

[shell spear]

yes

[stuck berry]

If you do, it would be the first destination shown on the teleporter list

[shell spear]

or wait

no

nvm

[desert escarp]

are there stations with more %?

[stuck berry]

"%"?

[desert escarp]

or maybe it apeared in the first "wave"

exotic ship

[stuck berry]

Other than some systems' stations spawning it as a part of their first wave sometimes, no

as we have said prior, it is a fixed 1 in 301 chance for an exotic ship to spawn in place of a flying NPC ship

[desert escarp]

but if i go to that station for example, could it spawn in thje first wave again?

[stuck berry]

Probably, idk

first wave things are weird and only work a certain % of the time

[real hemlock]

this keeps happening hellllpppp

[swift sand]

ime, these systems are really rare to find, and why they happen remains illusive, probably hidden in the code we can't see. it's unclear if the observed behavior i.e. an increased weight to spawning an exotic in the first wave also manifests the same for any players who visit the same reported system. the way i personally gauge if i've found a first wave exotic system is if an exotic spawns on the first wave in some system, i'll save+reload and check if it spawns again. if it maintains this behavior for more than 50 reloads in a row - and i've even found systems where a double exotic could spawn on the first wave more than half those reloads), then i will safely assume that i've found one.

[swift sand]

in your own freighter?

[real hemlock]

yep :c

Pause, Options, General -> Reset Position in freighter

Shared by: bkay201 Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[swift sand]

if it's really frequent, is there anything you're doing that's common to all those instances?

[desert escarp]

woh dam, ty

[real hemlock]

yay

[real hemlock]

walking 🙁

[swift sand]

in what area of the freighter? or going to what area?

[real hemlock]

the area where the navigator is and through the corridors around that

[swift sand]

okay so in the bridge, and the corridors that lead to the stairs that go down to the hanger?

[real hemlock]

yep

[swift sand]

i've seen some reports here from players who have issues with stairs, but that is related to stairs from the hanger up having no collision for some reason. hmm. what platform are you on?

[real hemlock]

pcusing xbox

to run it

well atleast i have a way of getting out now

[shell spear]

what things should i use to produce energy

without me having to do anything

[swift sand]

i wonder if it's a graphics settings thing (e.g. perhaps base complexity?), or if it's a specific freighter thing. what kind of freighter do you have?

[real hemlock]

uhhh how do i check

[swift sand]

solar panels+batteries are normally fine for any small-ish base, but when power need goes above say, 400kps, i'd very much consider using power hotspot+em generator instead

[swift sand]

both graphics settings and what kind of freighter you have?

[real hemlock]

in quality everything is enhanced

but i have the right amount of gigs and a good res

[swift sand]

gotcha. side question: what are your specs, generally speaking; at least above min specs requirement?

[shell spear]

whats a powerhotspot and em generator

[swift sand]

@real hemlock also pinged you in #nms-commands

[real hemlock]

also it only happens on this freighter btw

[swift sand]

in short, hotspots are like infinite forcefields that we can harvest with specific base building parts. you find them using a multitool tech called survey device. i'd recommend running !faq-units in #nms-commands , follow the mineral farming guide link

[real hemlock]

this type

[swift sand]

meaning you've tested this for example in a different save with a diff kind of freighter and it doesn't happen with the other one?

[real hemlock]

with the one i had before i traded for this one cause of the better class

[swift sand]

gotcha

[shell spear]

how about the generators??

[swift sand]

@real hemlock do you have a big base built inside the freighter, something you might have invested considerable amount of time to finish?

[real hemlock]

nope just 1 command room

or meeting i forgot

[swift sand]

electromagnetic generator is a base part that you'll use to harvest power hotspots (also explained in the guide)

[real hemlock]

the name

[swift sand]

a fleet command room? yeah that's not much. another thing that came to mind would be to reset freighter base to its defaults, using the freighter upgrade terminal on the bridge.

[real hemlock]

k ty

[swift sand]

please let us know if that fixed it, could be a good workaround for other players too if it does

maybe also resummon freighter after resetting

[real hemlock]

ok so do i just go in the bridge to do it?

[swift sand]

yeah, at the upgrade terminal

@real hemlock if you want, delete the freighter command room first to get 100% build mats back

[real hemlock]

im not falling through the floor anymore dayum tyyy

nah its good there cheap

[swift sand]

you're sure? try it out a few more times, perhaps after having summoned the freighter to a diff system, for example

[real hemlock]

ok ill try

[swift sand]

just to make sure it's fully fixed

[real hemlock]

yep still not falling

[swift sand]

i guess we can confirm that as a possible fix, thanks!

[surreal wadi]

how does the train language skills option work? (where when you interact with a creature on anomaly)

[supple goblet]

hi, im on the neoterra planet, but somehow, i cant load bases like las genesis, my portal only list like 8 bases on the planet. can someone help me, ty

[swift sand]

which npc is this with? heh, i dont think i've done practice language skills in the anomaly, missed it or i just ignore it i guess 😄 anyway, usually the reward can be learning another word out of the same npc, or some random item like upgrade modules, or even standing inc/dec

you dont always get the positive rewards though, regardless of which word you picked

[shell spear]

uhh my artemis translator seems to be stuck at 0% after learning like 5 words

is that normal

[surreal wadi]

well not in my case looks like cuz I've been getting -1 to reputation almost every time

[swift sand]

1. the more parts we have used up built by our own character from the 21k max parts per save, the less parts are available for the game to download other player bases. do you think that could be what's happening here?

[supple goblet]

i dont think so, since the last time, when i have more parts, i still can see genesis.

this time, i even delete all my large old bases

[swift sand]

well, it depends on the race of the npc you're talking too ofc - for example, korvax really like when you talk tech terms with them, while gek really like trade related words

[surreal wadi]

and Im guessing that vy'keens like talking bout war etc

[wicked scaffold]

How can i trade my ship to other Players without losing them? 😅

[analog scroll]

There is a pin in #nms-legacy-ships that outlines the process

[swift sand]

2. there's also a limit of parts that can be stored in the server for a specific system, by all player uploaded bases; 8*3000 is exactly 24000 parts, which iirc is exactly right about the limit that we've sorta been able to hit. it's possible that the limit is actually 25k, but perhaps no one uploaded a base with 1k or less parts to make it be 9 bases on the teleporter.

[stuck berry]

#nms-legacy-ships message

[wicked scaffold]

Thank you ☺️

[supple goblet]

is there anyway to exceed this limit? or rotate and change the base i choose to see each day?

[shell spear]

uhh guys i just talked to an entire space station and my calibration is still at 0%

is that normal

[analog scroll]

Depends what your mission is asking you to do, and where it is directing you to go

[swift sand]

no, that's not possible to do. the only way a base would get pushed off the list is triggered by the server itself. the details on what conditions it does this on arent fully known afaik, though we think that's probably a combo of last upload time, and if more bases have been uploaded since then, maybe even how often a different player or players, try to upload new bases. that's a part that we don't see.

[supple goblet]

oh, so basically, there is no way to control this base parts limit 🙁 Oki, ty so much for the answer, have a nice day bro 🙂

[distant pike]

Bro these solar panels aren’t working

I have a lot of them

They’re not giving any power

482kp used / 300kp available

[analog scroll]

You have 6 solar panels, for 482 kP of power you need 20 + 10 batteries

[distant pike]

But ppl said solar panels were enough bruh

[analog scroll]

They are, if you have enough of them

[supple goblet]

u need to have enough of them :3

[distant pike]

Where am I supposed to put them

[analog scroll]

Anywhere inside the base boundary

Just make sure the ratio is right. 2 panels + 1 battery for every 50 kP of power used, round up to the next 50, for continuous power day and night

[distant pike]

Do I need to drag wires from every single one

[swift sand]

sorry, yeah - vykeen are into combat, threatening stuff, but also lore, ancient warrior race honors traditions that sorta deal.

[analog scroll]

Wire them all together. Wire all of the batteries together. 1 wire from the panel group to the battery group, 1 wire from the battery group to the base power network

[swift sand]

@distant pike an example

[distant pike]

Huh

I have them spread out in my base tho

[swift sand]

dont necessarily need to, but you can, as long as you make sure that they're all connected to the power grid somewhere

[supple goblet]

and u can check if they r connect or not by press E

[analog scroll]

They can be all in one place

[swift sand]

and the same for the solar panels ofc

yeah, see the charge rate, capacity, etc by interacting with one of them

[surreal wadi]

well, thx for help I thought it was based on their text (thing that they were saying at the beginning of the conversation)

[distant pike]

I’m using underwater base things and I just placed them where the buildings wants them placed

With snap placement

[midnight oracle]

What would be the fastest legitimate way to max out corvettes tech and inventory? Don't want to make upgrades free thats no fun

[swift sand]

nah, it's iirc based on categories of words, and the words you can say are words you've already learned ofc, from those categories. like tech, or combat, or trade, or lore, etc

[analog scroll]

The building doesn't care where they are. They can be in the water

[distant pike]

No I meant snap placement

[swift sand]

check out !faq-inventory in #nms-commands , the starship header link for drop sources; kinda depends a little on what you have available already atm, e.g. sufficient guild envoy standing, but you could also do mission boards and ship scrapping

[analog scroll]

It doesn't matter about snap placement. Add more (substantially more), and more batteries, or make your base smaller

[distant pike]

Solar panels dont work during night time right?

[analog scroll]

That's why you need batteries

[distant pike]

Btw now it says 482kp used 1800 available

So I’m guessing power is fixed now

[distant pike]

Ok wait

[analog scroll]

Or you're using both solar and EM, and it's now daytime

[heady perch]

guys how do i complete this story mission? this mission is the one where u go to the cartography NPCs and each of them u have to do a task so they tell u the story of their species, them they get possesed by that strange number 16 thingy and yea. i reached the Gek's mission but idk what the hell this guy wants me to do, i already did like 4 missions and none of them counted towards the 0/2 requirement of contracts completed, what do i do here???

[tulip dust]

-# to view info below, enable embeds
@heady perch You have to do the right type of mission

<:info:850810445577453658> Patterns in Time - Gek mission contracts

Patterns in Time mission will task the player with completing missions for the Gek race - not just any mission picked up from a Gek mission board.

Missions of the same type can be stacked and completed in tandem, even if they're set in different planets. Turning in can be done at any station, doesn't have to be a Gek system.

You're welcome 😉

[distant pike]

Wait so I can just make one room filled with panels and batteries and then wire the panels together and wire them to the batteries and then it’s fixed?

[desert escarp]

is this exotic?

hell na

[analog scroll]

If you're using prefabs they don't need wires if they're inside, but yes. As long as you have enough of both

[distant pike]

Ok so 20 panels and 10 batteries

[mossy panther]

hi

was wondering

how does trading even work in this game
