ohhh ok
But yeah, the goal is sort of whatever you want
kinda minecraft but space
i see
one of those old games where imagination is the limit and not your wallet
Hey guys I have a question, I literally just got off my first planet today lol, but I set away point for another start system but I can't see it, why is that?
a bit of a late reply sorry, but in truth, there is no "best way" to progress, no need to rush; but there are quests that, as a player, to enjoy the game in full i guess and unlock all the possible content atm, that you will want to complete for sure. so i'd suggest knocking out the main story (always the mission with the eclipsed sun icon first; type !faq-artemispath in #nms-commands for a list of its missions)
probably press X and enter galactic map
@tawdry copper see post below, custom waypoint icon in galaxy map
-#
to view info below, enable embeds
I was on the map and that's how I set the marker but I can't see it to fly to it
so you were looking at a system, waypointed it - and game did not add icon on it?
Yup!
Well it added it
But when I look around its not there
hmm, working ok for me atm. i remember that there were some issues with this on xbox, but it was about waypointing from discoveries, not using galaxy map
wdym look around? you mean that you.. e.g. teleport away, and then have no custom waypoint pathline to follow or..?
When ever something had an icon above it I could see it while on a planet, so ik where to go yk, unless it doesnt work like that while in space lol
"in space"? you mean in the galaxy map?
Wait I'm not explaining great sorry let me type out an explanation!
while waiting for your reply, i waypointed a system near me in the galaxy map, then warped a fair distance away, and reopened the galaxy map - i can see the waypoint icon, but unfortunately game isnt giving me a custom waypoint pathline, which is a much more recent issue than the one i was thinking of earlier
Guys my nephew deleted my save is there any way I can get it back (I'm on ps5)
already quit game after that? that probably triggered a cloud sync already so it's also gone from the cloud
He came over a bit ago I hop on no mans sky snd my saves disappeared I asked him he said he deleted it
are exocraft really worth the trouble?
rip and thats why i make even my brorher login with his account
So far when for example it's told me to go somewhere it's had a marker so I knew where to go, like when I was walking around I could see the marker, so when I've finally gotten to fly my ship, I opened the map and marked a galaxy bc the planets weren't great where I was, so I'm assuming that whilst flying my ship the marker would work the same so I could see which way to fly, I don't have the warp thing yet. Unless I'm wrong and if so how do ik which way to fly? Unless I need to continue the missions it's given me to build a base before I can. I wanted to find somewhere nicer for a base lol
One of the highest crimes in video gaming 🙏 my condolences friend
I dont know much about ps5 but hopefully someone here does know
if you didnt quit the game yet, i'd strongly recommend not doing so without disconnecting from internet so that it doesnt update cloud save, in fact deleting it (because it was deleted locally). then i'd probably try to get in contact with sony support and see if it's retrievable
My ps had been turned off since hes been here
@pliant star strong suggestion: sign up for hello games cross save: even if you dont cross save, you get an extra backup, one that you can even do manually (disable auto uploads)
Ahhh good idea
try to hit up sony support anyway, maybe there's snapshots of cloud saves
True thanks for the help
I might just restart it wasn't that good of a save anyway
I didn't have anything s class
Depends. Some are probably more worthwhile than others. The nautilon for instance is required to explore ocean worlds in purple systems, and generally makes water exploration much faster (also it can go on land just fine which is hilarious)
The pilgrim is the fastest land vehicle and it, along with the roamer and nomad, nicely fit the niche of travel thats too far to run and too short to fly (also the pilgrim is a motorcycle with a jet engine, what is not to like?). The minotaur is cool, can go on land and walk underwater, and is the strongest combat vehicle. It can be very useful to help fight sentinels or automatically protect you from predators.
Technically they're not necessary, especially min maxing them, but they can be cool or fun and provide utility. Up to you
yee support seems to be best bet, googling there is no way to recover it
Holy yap, sorry lol
tho maybe you can try to restore data localy
if you dont have hyperdirve unlocked yet, then just continue progressing the main storyline, and yeah, you need a base computer claimed somewhere, we can have up to 400 base comps, you just need a base comp to build structures as early missions need you to. we cannot travel to other star systems without hyperdrive+galaxy map
im asking mostly for ground navigation, cause if i wanna do a longer journey i just fly there, if i need to move really quickly i just use the jetpack melee dash
To add on to the minotaur, I like using it to explore on planets during storms so I dont have to bother with hazard protection or the camera effects of storms
If they were not synced they might be gone
I'll just try make a new save it's just a bit sad
the minotaur is the only one ive used for sentinels and haz protection but even then it doesnt seem like much help just for it to get damaged
Ah okay thank you!!
Ah fair. You can get by just fine without them for ground exploration. They can be decent for more mid range travel that is inconvenient to jetpack or fly to, as they can be very fast. Ultimately up to personal preference
The minotaur alone is usually sufficient for exocraft
im not sure but deleted files can be recovered from ssd if its not been overwriten yet
in old times on HDD those files were only marked deleted not actually deleted
on PC ssd have trim enabled which actually delets those files but even then i have worked in a computer repair shop and we had recovered files from not working SSD, should be able with deleted too
do some googling perhaps
Will do thanks
Are those edgy Aeron parts tradeable?
vesper sails?
the expedition parts for corvette's
btw can you actually edit exocraft colors or parts to change how they look?
besides the hardframe for minotuar for example
you can change colors at their geobay for all exocraft, and put decals on specific parts of them. atm the only exocraft who can have different parts is the minotaur and colossus. colossus parts are unlocked by salvaging waste or through that one expedition
oh i didnt know it was at the geobay
thanks
ofc :)
How do you get access to gas giants in NMS?
Does it help if I give the animal more food?
Don't suppose anyone knows why I don't have shield strength or maneuver 😂
Do plants you destroy grow back?
Open the "pause" menu to fix this temporarily
Thanks, I will check it out
Eventually. After some time. Probably long after you've left the system.
It's caused by viewing the multitool inventory, and fixed by viewing the pause menu
Thx 🙏
Ah fair lol
at ship outfitting, does ship cargo content increase the salvage reward price?
Yes, the amount of available cargo slots improves the starships value
not what i meant
i said cargo content not cargo slots 💔
Like if I fill in an entire ship with nipnip will that raise the price
darn... no nipnip smuggling.
My power hotspot doesnt seem to be connecting to my circuit. any ideas why?
Are you trying to connect power between multiple bases?
If so, this will not work
no, one base
Then it should be connecting fully. Do you have the Electromagnetic Generator built on top of an Electromagnetic Hotspot?
i guess i should give more infos... i thought maybe there was a known glitch about it, or something like that
You can interact with the generator to see how much power it is outputting
yeah, its working, the cables seem powered, but it says its not connected, and its not contributing to power the base
its outputting around 150KP
i have it connected with 6 solars, then to 5 batteries
That is very strange, it should fully work and give power. Is the base consuming more power than it produces?
i got 7 scan missions not only in the same system but in same planet, wonder how that gona work lol
Either delete two of those batteries, or add four more solar panels
is there a cap to those modules i can build?
but with the extra KPs from the hotspot, it should be more than enough, no?
but as i said, its not connecting
Yes, if anything you could get rid of the solar panels and batteries
Since you can add more electromagnetic generators atop the same hotspot
Get rid of all of the solar panels and batteries, what happens?
They’ll stack and complete at the same time, which is best case scenario for taking missions
killing animals is the best one :D
idk, if theres no known glitch about this, i might just forget about the hotspot. i already spent too much time on this..
ill triple check that
Or the extra batteries are trying to take more energy, idk
I need help with egg sequencer
Does the electromagnetic generator power however much it says per second nonstop day and night??
i just deleted and rebuilt the same wires and it worked :3 thx for the help
i honestly dont understand whats the point of happiness in setlements
Hey guyes I got a question is there a korvak empire some where I wanna join
other question is he assasin or scout and how da hell is he supposed to do any of those lol
Galactic Hub has many empire/communities
Hey dear nms community.
Can someone help me out with two aeron blades? I’m building a Korvette right now and it would help me massively
am i safe from gas giant tornados inside minotaur or other exocrafts?
Should I trade in my A class pirate freighter for this?
brothers......can someone please share that pic about the rotation in trading? like....a graphic on what to sell where when trading goods
like the S, dislike the ammount of slots in that
Can somebody help me getting a portal in elucid galaxy?
So I can just join you and get to a portal cuz i need one and cant find one
Get your roamer and then search for alien artifact thingd
sure, add me if you want
or do this lol @full plank
Sure DM me your friend code
How is the switch 1 performance of the game
what?
Probably trash
The space anomaly quest tells me to search for Artemis & The Mysterious Apollo by purchasing technology blueprints or new base parts? Undertake missions and exchange things for nanities
Im confused and I also don’t know what’s the next quest or step im supposed to do
When naming bases, can special characters be used such as . and / ? I have looked for some kind of guide but it gets lost in the ether
Track the main story instead
That's what it's telling you to do
Can somebody tell me how to get the new exocraft thingys?
Like the colossus stuff? Unlock the Gravitino Coil blueprint from Iteration: Eos aboard the Space Anomaly, then install it to begin the tutorial mission for waste hauling. You'll also want the Colossus Geobay blueprint unlocked, as well as the Exocraft Radar from Perses
is the wiki info about the pillar of matter multi-tool accurate? i tried the portal but i can't find the camp with the given coordinates
Alr thx
Yes, by installing hyperdrive upgrade modules, which you can purchase from space station starship tech merchants. You can install up to 3 of each type of upgrade at a time, this limit doesn't include blueprint tech. Each space station offers their upgrades at different classes, S-Class upgrades aren't rare, just slightly pricey
I have the blueprint, but no tutorial mission or anything
what now?
Okay
Have you installed it onto your current Multi-Tool?
No but i dont have it in my inventory either
it just says unlocked
Yes, because it is a technology blueprint
And what to do with it then? I´m very lost sorry
Click an open slot on your Multi-Tool, then select it to begin installation
Just like how you installed the Analysis Visor and Terrain Manipulator previously
oh thx
Are you in the same galaxy as the coordinates specify?
oml i'm so dumb
It can be pretty difficult to find freighter upgrade modules, so I would rather not...
actually i should be because i used the portal. i typed in the coordinates on the wiki page. it worked when i looked for the ozone clarifier
What's a black hole do? I found one in a pirate system
having a bit of an issue im hoping anyone might know whats up with
i used to be able to play the game just fine but i took an extended break and now the game always crashes on the hello games logo
i dont think i changed anything? restarting the pc didnt do much either
verify your files ig
i remember this happened when i was trying to rollback the version
nope, still nothing I'm afraid 😔
do you have any mods installed
nah. clean game since its my first playthrough
cant be the storage either, i have like half my drive still available
i dont think that would be a storage issue
I just cant think of anything that wouldve changed in that time that would make the game suddenly unable to run :(
ill keep looking around
How di i get to other galaxies im in callypso rn but only got here from following atlas path mission, ive been following the galaxy map to galactic core but it keeps going kn
I'm trying to make my first perma death save and when i click new game i dont have the option of perma death, why?
Does any one have a link to korvak empire i would like to join
Try looking around there
Thx
is there a "strat" to finding certain planets? (such as star types) or are they completely random
different star types have different odds for each planet type
how many technology slot storage upgrades can you get
and is it the same for the multi tool, ship and exosuit
how to locate alien monoliths? to get to a new galaxy
Or to get closer to the galactic core
Depends on the class of the thing

Locating a Portal
- Obtain the race relic item to give to a Monolith, [see this post](#nms-questions message);
- Locate a Monolith, [see this post](#nms-questions message);
- 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

- 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.

what makes a staff "worse" for harvesting then a sentinel multitool
Really just star color and galaxy type
where do i sell or give away pirate transponders? and if in a space station, where would the vendor be?
It doesn't have a second core mining beam module
stats ig
cant i just install it
except that one staff
No, we cannot obtain the blueprint for the Hijacked Laser or the Runic Lens
oh thats the hijacked laser?
When i click the links they dont work
so how does that differ in performance then
adjecency bonus
At the back right of the space station. If the current station isn't mercenary, then go to a different region #nms-questions message
Sentinel MTs have the Hijacked Laser pre-installed. You can then install the Mining Beam alongside this for greater stats overall
greater stats being just faster mining?
Yes, just faster mining
thank you, imma try
Someone put one of those holograms on my corvette and I can't take it off. Can someone tell me how I'm supposed to remove ts
Atlantid Multi-Tools also have this feature, but their mining bonus is far higher
is it that much of a difference?
I found extraordinary torquer 1.9M and rotten welders instrument, are they useful at all ? their descriptions dint help
i wouldnt because then you have 2 mining lasers dilluting the weapons
how do I remove one of these
just to be sure, do you mean the guy sitting in the ship in those ruined space stations?
Aim at it in edit mode and press the delete button
the staff or the wonder projector
No, guild envoys are not found in outlaw stations
it doesnt even highlight it
is there a picture somewhere of that?
same general area but in a normal space station
i didnt even know that this area exists, i found it
nvm i cant sell it there
needs this guy
Hi, may i ask, do fishing in the fishing pond in settlement guarantee a higher chance for A and S class fishes? And do settlements count toward base parts limit? Ty
can you put the same egg in a sequencer several times?
and does that actually do anything
So I randomly have phosphorus on me but nothing on my planet that I remember gives phosphorus
Maybe you just picked it up from another planet in your travels?
Or, I'm not sure if it drops from anything else, but that might be it as well.
Well I was on my planet this whole time so I don’t know
Is it hot?
Yeah but nothing here drops it
Hmm.
Well, there's always the deposits in the ground.
Or some of the rarer rocks and plants.
Kinda hard to know for certain if I don't have much intel on your planet.
Hmm okay I’ll try to look around if maybe I missed something but my planet doesn’t say it has it so
What's its biome descriptor?
Lava-type, alright.
Not entirely sure where you're getting phosphorous, then, if you've never left that planet.
But I could be forgetting something.
I have left but as in the last hour I haven’t left the planet I’ve been at my base
Then again, could be from somewhere else.
Wouldn't be the first time I've missed something slipping into my inventory
What drops phosphorus tho
Could be a secondary element on almost any plant or mineral
You have to have scanned them to see that secondary element, but every plant and mineral has one
You can only have one living frigate in your fleet?
No, you can have 30 if you want, but you can only obtain one per system
Hello i am at a portal and it wants me to enter a sequence but im just tryna get closer to the galactic core to kove onto next galaxy
Oh I just want 5
What should I do
And the food they like depends on each right
Or rather how it affects their stats. It’s not always the same
all first glyph repeated
Thanks and is there a way to know that for next portal?
that will take you to a portal within 5k LY of the core
which will be covered in message balls
from there, jump towards the core as you normally would
REMEMBER: Jumping through the core will damage ALL equipment, your ship, your suit, your multiool
Ya i have spare ship ajd multitool im gonna use
Is it worth it to store the technology in exosuit and then put it back on?
To avoid having to repair
Im discovering all the glyphs trying to use the Agrajag base method, any tricks you guys know (outside of turning off multiplayer) to get the agrajag bases to show up in the base list at the station portal?
the final mission of the main quest will give you all glyphs
Thanks, I am aware, but not really what i'm asking.
You guys recommend resetting atlas on first playthrough?
You have to be in the same system
It's a personal preference. There is no right or wrong answer, but beware of spoilers
I'm pretty sure I am, at least I portaled to the glyph coordinates in the post, ill double check and see if there is a system reference for the agrajag bases and double check. Thanks
How in the world am I still on the construction terminal part of the space anomaly quest when I collected either 30 or 50 (stack size on survival) salvaged tech and unlocked stuff with it?
The Space Anomaly is no longer a mission after it's tutorial
It's just a reminder that the Space Anomaly is important for unlocking base building/tech blueprints and earning nanites
That will always show when you return to the Anomaly with any Salvaged Data in your inventory
Artemis quest says click space anomaly mission, space anomaly is stuck on construction terminal thing.
Ahhh, then something is wrong
Where is the purple icon in the Anomaly?
Are you in a group?
Have you talked to Nada twice yet?
No to group, no purple icon, and...no? Let me go talk to him again
Nada gives the travel between worlds speech.
If there's no icon, get in your ship and leave the Anomaly. There is a set order for what you need to do there
And it just updated from going to the terminal and going in and out, weird.
Question about the Autophage Salvage Operation missions: Can I extract a module instead of scrapping a ship and still have it count towards mission completion?
No
Do note it does not have to be the ship you are directed to. You can scrap any ship as long as it has enough value
Ye, I figured as much, but the one that has the appropriate value IS the one I wanted parts on lol it's alright though.
You can buy a shuttle
I’ve scanned pretty much everything and none of them have that as a secondary element
can I stop trees from regrowing in my base?
even If i use terrain manipulator to destroy the part that tree regrows on?
Altered terrain always regenerates
Just picked up my first experimental MT. Should I upgrade and use it over my alien multitool?

-# Tech build we end up with, using supercharged slots and stacking Upgrade modules, will allow any ship/MT/freighter be able to easily deal with anything in the game. - That said, all gear can have its inventory upgraded, although for that a class upgrade might be needed first.

||I just misclicked while talking to the atlas after going to the final portal.|| instead of continuing i accidentally pressed refuse and now i have a mission that just says ‘enjoy the galaxy’. is there any way to go back to where i was before and continue?
Either choice ends the story, you're done. You can still get to other galaxies any time you want via the core, a taxi, or teleporting to a base there (at least 1 featured base is in Eissentam)
what would have happened if i’d have pressed one of the other options?
||You get a choice of one of 4 galaxies to travel to (fixed based on where you are). You travel there, but all installed tech is damaged||
ah so maybe it was kind of a good think that i misclicked lol
Certainly can be, especially if you're not prepared
but what i’m confused about also is that my mission was to ||get to the galaxy centre|| but i was completing other missions in other systems and everytime i warped ||i got another glyph|| and then found ||the final portal|| even though i hadn’t ||gone to the centre||
do jetpack trails provide stat bonuses like how starship trails do?
The mission tooltip says to progress toward the center, but even that isn't needed. ||You can warp anywhere, you just have to warp 16 times during that mission||
Heyo, I just beat Permadeath for the first time, and wanted to loosen up the inventory restrictions now that I got the achievement. Is there any way to modify the inventory stack limits difficulty setting, maybe via an external program?
ohhh got it thank you so much
Save editor would be the only way
also i was shocked that the ||goodbye to artemis|| was really anticlimactic but did i miss anything or was that just me?
You didn't miss anything
Reviewed some previous discord messages, Getting the glyphs using Agrajag's bases are only for permadeath mode. Just in case anyone else is trying it on a fresh playthrough like im doing.
Good to know, thanks for the update
There is at least 1 system where they can be obtained not in permadeath. !faq-portalglyphs should have it, but know that completing the story will give them all to you and is required for autophage content or to access purple systems
quick question please? My sc weapon now is photon cannon w/ one module. Will modules for other sc weapons systems increase dam on the photon cannon? Like a positron ejector module or phase beam module? Not the actual weapons, modules for them
Will modules for other sc weapons systems increase dam on the photon cannon?
nope
damage potential on ships will increase if you install mre than one weapon, but that doesnt increase any one weapon's damage
Thot so lol tyvm. Dint you say bk, you like the positron ejector or was it something else?
yeah, posi ejector is def one of my fav weapons, thing hits like a truck, especially at closer range
See, I have a litle memory left 🙂 Thankee kindly
hehe 🙂 always feel free to ask, have fun
Is there a way to copy only a corvette build in its entirety from one save to a new one? About to start a save with another person and wanting to start it with something to ride around in together, so kitting out a basic corvette with like no weapons etc
Before I put the effort in, do long power lines work?
Not via normal in-game means. You might be able to trade it to someone, then have them trade it to your new save; but I don't know if that works and it would be tricky to get right in the first place
@dusty thicket ^
Power lines max at 200U, but you can daisy chain them. You cannot, however, take power from one base to another
cant trade corvettes between players, only able to do so via save editor
I mean even save editting is fine by me just wondering if its at all possible without corrupting something
oo okay
yes, it's possible
Even if the bases are close?
@dusty thicket if you'd like, i can guide you do it
Period. Everything has to be within a single base boundary (which can be expanded)
How do I expand the boundary?
@fresh birch
-#
to view info below, enable embeds
- Open the Build Menu near the Base Computer and select a base part. Make sure you edit the correct base on the part's info panel.
- Walk away from the Base Computer until the Build Menu displays the Base Out of Range error (±300u).
- Walk back until the error message disappears (inside base boundary).
- Aiming towards your goal, place a 'building' part in front of you (each part expands ±50u). Decorations may not work to expand.
- Repeat steps 2, 3, and 4 until you reach your goal, or reached maximal distance.
Note: Save/Reload within the base boundary, if expansion no longer works.
- Max expansion is ±1000u away from your Base Computer in any direction.
- A maximal distance of ±2000u can be covered with the base computer dead centre.
- Moving the base computer does not change the expandable area
Did you know? After expanding, and completing the build, you can delete the parts used for the base boundary expansion.

I mean hell, sure man that sounds nice, but I'm more than happy finding a tutorial online or something if that's a thing
or if it's fairly straightforward in whatever save editing app
i'll ping you in #964865106334875698
Thank you
Wait I didn't realize I could make a corvette before beating the storyline for it, it might not be super necessary
If we can make one within the first hour or two of playing then it's probably fine
You can build one immediately on reaching the first space station, if you have the parts or units by then
okay damn I thought it was locked behind whatever random quest I did way back when
Thanks @analog scroll, and @swift sand no longer needed for save editor and I appreciate the information and help
y'all are great
i finally found the "common" flying always active ive been looking for for hours, i scanned it, it got ADDED to the list as extinct and the entry avove remains not found ???
let me guess, just scanned it and it went extinct?
yeah, known issue atm
!hg
Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
i didnt even know extinct was a thing
im pretty new to nms and i was wondering what i should focus on doing. i have the space anomaly unlocked and that stuff
usually only a game update could do so - but yeah, bugs
well if its a known issue reporting it would just add clutter to whoever's receiving the reports
i'd sggest to keep progressing main storyline to keep unlocking stuff further down the line. that said, once you get access to anomaly you could side track for a bit, do some other stuff, unlock parts from anomaly, build mines/farms/bases, upgrade your gear to have an easier time progressing quests/missions etc. you'll want to unlock purple star systems as well, they're a great part of the game. there's multiple requirements to trigger the needed quest, you can type !faq-purplesystems in #nms-commands for more infos
alright sweet, i appreciate it man 
which figure gives me maneuverability and warp distance?
see <#nms-questions message>
nice
What is this marker mean "corpoal dekoure" there is nothing there its just on a planet but no buildings people or anything
Will I be able to use this with my GEK race player? I purchased the blazing orbit helmet and can't use it with my GEK !
that name doesn't ring a bell - can you post a screenshot of what you're seeing?
Multiple reports can help them know how frequent/widespread it is. It could also potentially help them prioritize.
no, cant be used on gek
(ignore ship there i moved it and marker was still there)
Damn that's a bummer
This is first planet i got on in new galaxy so maybe thats it
That looks like there should be an NPC with a quest
ah i see - this marker should be to a npc, but it seems they're not there? if you're not in a nexus mission, have you tried to save+reload?
I just left ngl but yeah weird
I saw a few days ago someone had shrunk down the save point tool on their corvette to be a little "desk ornament" thing that they put on a table next to their Crew Berth, but trying to do the same thing on my own corvette, I've found you can't change the size of the Save Point normally. Is there some glitch/mod that the person may have used to do that, or is it something that can be accomplished in vanilla somehow? (I wish I had taken a picture to show what I'm talking about).

Guys I might just be stupid but I’m trying to get a sentinel ship right but when I try to get the locator it just gives me mirrors am I tweaking or is something wrong?
No, the Dissonnant Resonators have an 80% chance to drop a mirror, and 20% chance to drop a locator. But, it's pre-allocated, not random on drop. To see what they drop, walk up to them and point your multitool at it.
Oh ok thx
Thanks!
This is my first ship so wish me luck
Run !faq-interceptor in #nms-commands for more info
expeditions and quicksilver shop
Can they no longer be obtained through missions?
There's always been, like, one obtainable that way.
i dont know if any are gotten from missions
this is what you're talking about?
They've always been from other sources
wait i think the wingpack one from the sentinel dudes is one
Yeah. one.
For the most part, yeah, just expeditions and Quicksilver.
That's the one I have
I'm sorry, but that's just how it goes.
Well, thank you very much 
Okay, im so confused. I have NO idea how these came to be collected... I dont remember doing any of these
well 2 of them are the switch stuff
I really need some guidance
I have no idea where I'm going or what I'm supposed to do
Check your log. There's quests to follow there.
In essence, this is a sandbox environment, with a few quests. It's encouraged to complete the main questline (the 3 missions pinned to the top of your quest log), but really, you can do whatever you like.
If you want some general new player tips, you can type !faq-BeginnerTips in #nms-commands !
I should add that the main 3 quests never go away, they'll always stick around, even if when there's nothing more to do.
That's what I'm having trouble with
I'm supposed to track down some lifeform but I don't even know where to begin
What the log say?
It's the "alone amidst the stars" quest and all it says is "Visit the lifeform and locate yourself on the star chart"
Is there a way to opt in for being pinged when an expedition starts?
Is there a space where I can have people who are good at bulding help me build a base?
I remember back when I played fallout 76 there were tons of sub communitys called carriers that wouldf facilitate large trades and base building for you for an ingame fee.
Just wandering if theres anything like that here.
What was the last thing you did?
I don't know, it's been like 9 months since I last played
This link might help
https://nomanssky.miraheze.org/wiki/Alone_Amidst_the_Stars#Triangulation
I believe you're on the section titled "Artemis' Star Chart"
is there some way to do the expeditions? I'm trying to get the special construct heads from Expedition 10
Only works on PC/Mac and jailbroken switch, doesn't work for other consoles
If you just want the rewards and are on PC, you can use a save editor like NMSE to unlock them, rather than doing the expedition
just a quick question - Can solar panels be used on Gas Giant planets?
They can be used even under water
ty
Anyone know why I can’t install this? I have another module I also can’t install pretty new to the game (10hrs)
Are you placing it in an empty tech slot?
All the slots were grayed out I don’t know why they made it look like that sorry Ty
what object does a tall antenna snap to? trying to get info from the corvette section but I haven't had a good response
I want it to go horizontal
Many ships/multitools need you to unlock additional tech slots with tokens or currency at space station
what else does the game want from me
the planet is in this system, so by process of elimination if i take a photo on every one of the planets i should get it
Im on a scalding planet and I can’t find phosphorus. It say the planet has it but I can only find cobalt
Check the planets discovery page again
I believe it's also a terrain manipulator deposit, so you might have to look around a bit more
Okay I did eventually find one deposit
Another question. How come even after finding an digging out a whole deposit will it still show up when searching for more?
As I’ll look and look and see one but come to find out I already mined it all out
A quirk of the game, I would say aim for a particular cardinal direction and keep going in that direction to keep yourself from going back to old deposits
Okay
hey so when i play nms vr it runs alrihgt but,when im at the space anomaly it freezes every 2 seconds.
which multi tool is better, staff, atlantid, royal or alien?
How do I bulk buy this? It's getting old having to hold down E for 3 seconds
scroll left
uhh.. how do I do that
just click the left arrow
oh sweet thanks!
Also you can press Q to scroll left
does conflict level determine the pirate fight if I warp there?
Determine in what way?
different bonuses, not better
like am I gonna see a pirate dreadnought if I go to a conflict 3
Can anyone taxi me to Galaxy 256?
I've been away from this for a while, I have a few questions
Only "not normal" ships are solar, living and ex-sentinel?
Should I even be accelerating when in ship combat? Ships are always circling around me, I never have to chase them and it's a bit too easy
I got the conflict scanner but I'd like a way of guaranteed getting into a fight, other than attacking a starbase and getting sentinels
Does anyone have an idea where I can find the s class scanners on planets that give INSANE multipliers I have yet to find even a regular one not sure where they are
How do I lower the hit chance on the “roar” attack? Is it tied to agility?
I don’t accelerate in combat it’s definitely way to easy, you can also attack the ships harvesting meteors to get a combat scenario I believe
Up the difficulty
- exotics yep- but there are a few one off ship designs too
- i personally don’t boost because of the turning radius yep
3)if you have valuable cargo you’re way more likely to run into danger- but you can take community missions to fight pirates as well
i’m also rusty so take this with a grain of salt
is there always a set number of land creatures vs sea creatures? like 4 land 3 sea
and how much does the total number of species vary? Usually it's 7 or 8
idk
at least you tried
Is it possible to increase my ship maximum
No, but if you have a Freighter, you can archive your ships to make room
how can i archive my ships
The console on the bridge that says "Manage Fleet"
can i archive Corvettes too?
No, only regular ships
You should, yes, but I don't believe it's tied to conflict level, that only pertains to whether it has guaranteed version of the fight
what's the easiest way to acquire temporary fleet upgrades, e.g. mind control device
Craft them
And how do I do that
U unlock bp from freighter bridge
Sorry it's been a while since I played. The bridge is where the navigator is?
Where do I find it exactly
upgrade control?
ah I see them now
If you progress a conflict level to 5 you can get a dreadnaught to appear
That's a Sentinel Capital Ship, one that we cannot take as our own freighter
heya, fellas, new here and in nms. Do devs release any kind of roadmap or plans for the year? And when to expect next expedition?
How many steps is it to get the void egg ship cause I have the egg and I’m doing a process but like how many steps is it out of curiosity?
Also, the mod channel is that like for weapon mods or does this game allow actual modding like Skyrim?
Also, I imagine I check the website for updates like when the next event is?
No. We only know about things after they have released.
Stay tuned to #nms-announcements , or the emoji tweets in #nms-socials that foreshadow each major update the following Wednesday
5 major steps, with 4 big waiting times, one between each step
Actual mods for the PC releases of the game http://tinyurl.com/nmsmodding550
You could, or you could check #nms-announcements, or check if #nms-expedition is open
Thank you!!!
so I see a tweet post of a bee yesterday in socials. Does that mean that we might get some update this Wednesday?
Yes, we expect so, on <t:1779886800:F>
ty
Is it possible to completely copy a base? I made a base on a planet and i made it flawlessly and i want to put it on another planet
Only using a save editor on PC
Is that a bannable thing? I heard you can add items to your inventory
No.
Keep in mind that the difficulty options can be changed at any time, enabling free crafting and free purchases are options available to all players who haven't locked their options or aren't in permadeath
due to this, external tools and glitches that are beneficial to players aren't something that gets solved usually
Does anyone know at what point in the story that travellers show up?
I'm on the last quest to get my living ship but other than farming the hazardous flora missions I have no way of getting the other glyphs
From game start
aka, they appear at predetermined space stations/trade outposts, and they are visible from the moment you begin your save
note that it's significantly easier to acquire all 16 glyphs from the main story #nms-commands message and you'll need to do that eventually regardless to unlock later stuff #nms-commands message
oooh, alright, I'll do that first then, thanks 
Hi, may i ask, im getting the error where i keep stuck in the warping animation when i tele by base tele portal. Im getting this pretty much a lot recently, may i ask how to fix this, ty
is this happening when you teleport to your own bases, or other player bases?
Only happen when i tele to other bases, i happend like 8,9 times since yesterday
I have to alt f4 to escape the animation
what's options/graphics/base complexity set to?
perhaps try lowering that if it's on higher settings atm
All r at enhanced, except for base complexity, it was ultra
yeah, maybe try lowering that 1-2 notches, see how it behaves after
Like, i have set this since day 1 XD
Hmm, oki, let me see
Ty bro
Have a nice day 🙂
feel free to keep us posted 🙂 always happy to help, and yeah, wish you an excellent day
🌄
Ty, same to u bro :3
does teleportation module work from literally anywhere to anywhere in the nms universe? i am planning on packing my stuff and going through a blackhole to make a completely new base / starting point
Are you referring to the teleporter that you can build at bases? Yes, it works across the universe
You will always be able to teleport to any of your existing bases, as well as the last ~70 space stations you have visited
you can have up to 400 bases at a time, but you'll probably reach the 21,000 base object limit per save first, which includes objects used in your freighter base and corvettes
How long for hatched fauna to grow into adults
should be up to 2weeks, though i've seen a couple reports recently that reported pets still not growing into adulthood even after 3 weeks
how many different styles of staff would u say u can get from a single station
using the same head, for diff color schemes? ime, something like 6 or so
Yeah
sweet cos i just found a REALLY nice one
hopefully the slots are good
from what ive seen slots are random based on terminal unless u get the first design
so
time for a generational nanite grind
how many is it for from c to s class?
looks so nice
colour is slightly off but everything with autophages are so idm
85k on normal mode
Hi again all. Can I pick your brains as I'm looking for activated quartzite. Internet says purple system but I've visited loads an not seeing it. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong
yeesh
thats double all my current units
i guess ill just get them overtime
no rush
have you completed in stellar multitudes quest? need to look for X or Y spectral class systems, see image below
B or O arent purple, those are blue
iow, if you're seeing any other stellar metal/activated stellar metal on the planets in the system, not quartzite or act quartzite, you're not in a purple star system
@tranquil walrus type !faq-purplesystems in #nms-commands for more infos on how to trigger that quest, then complete it
that's 85k nanites (with some strategies, that can be farmed in less than an hour)
i meant double my current nanites mb
also less than an hour?
yeah, e.g. sus packets tech/arms, salvaged glass farming

hey guys, does anyone know where i can buy new ships or buy freighters? i literally just started the game, if anyones able to help that would be great, thank you!
keep progressing quests:
- will first unlock space stations, where npc pilots land, and can buy ships off them; can also build a ship
- if you dont have options/difficulty/space combat set to none, will eventually trigger the first freighter rescue battle - until you take ownership of a freighter, all freighters rescued from pirates will be offerred for free
can type !faq-artemispath, !faq-freighters commands in #nms-commands for more infos
got it, thank you so much!
anything else feel free to ask 🙂

Ah ok no I don't think I did the mission. Guess I need to start doing what the game wants me to do an not what I want lol thx
Quick question, im new and like fishing, i there a aquarium or a way to make it?
nah, no way to make an aquarium with fish inside, but there is a base decoration called small aquarium; with a bit of creativity, + wonder projector base part, you could make something to that effect i guess
thanks
Solar vs exotic vs living ship if I want max fov, no cockpit obstacles in vr?
Kind of silly question but what galaxy has the least active players? I'm going to bed so I'll check answers tomorrow.
The forbidden one
256th
That one's way more popular than most
Can't reach it though, no?
by like magnitudes more popular than any normal galaxy after the first like 50
Can, by joining thru multiplayer
or save editing of course
due to it's "secrecy" it has many more times more attention than most galaxies
even though it's completely unnotable in it's actual features (like any other galaxy really)
Really any non-lush one between 50-240, but personally I've never ran into another player in any galaxy outside of stuff related to coordinate sharing/multiplayer joining
all galaxies are so colossal that you will be functionally alone in all of them after you warp a bit towards or away from the center, or especially upwards/downwards
The "spawn ring" is the most inhabited part of galaxies, which is why Euclid Galaxy may feel so "lived in" as all players start in the same big ring 700,000 LY away from the galactic center
long time i dont play, can i use save editing to chose a lush galaxy to start?
start a new game and do it?
Possibly, it may be advised to do that after the tutorial mission "Awakenings" is complete
but it would be very very easy to do for an existing save using https://github.com/vectorcmdr/NMSE
euclid, if you use the community highlight youi'll have big chance
oy vey least? m i read that wrong?
btw help me out game crashed suddenly c inside
Is this your own freighter?
If so, then go to Options > General > Reset Position in Freighter
wait theres such settings oh wow i really go past that one i guess
ohh its not on quickmenu oh okay
make sense
thanks man
thanks for saving me again grouch XD
i can continue the Quest in the new universe?
i will tryout
Yes, you can continue all of your missions in the new galaxy. We all explore the same universe though, there is only one universe.
galaxy not universe, and should be able to, yes, awakenings shouldnt have a problem with restart using nearby structures (i've done this before as well)
Ah K, I've just heard about the "can't warp out of starter system" possibly being caused by beginning the tutorial in non-euclid (via multiplayer joining)
hmm, i've not experienced it myself, but i've only done it after getting access to teleporter, and got restart using nearby structures no problems
that said, absolutely, i'd always recommend playing early missions solo, first and foremost, and safer still, access to anomaly unlocked
save editing current galaxy wasnt a problem last i tried either
(just saw that above)
my thing is i want to start and finish one playtrough, but 50% of the fun to me is finding a beautiful planet to build a base, thats why i want to start already on a lush galaxy
with NMSE, it's really easy to save edit to any star position, which places you at the warp-in point always I think so no need to worry about being inside a planet or etc, and even if it does that then the game usually handles that well enough on it's own (jutting you out)
iirc we can also set spawn position to say instation
i'm sure it's been mentioned already, but if you e.g. creative save+anomaly rush, you can teleport to a featured base in eissentam already, and from there just find somewhere isolated
idk if that's an alternative you could consider, but just figured i'd throw a reminder
i did this my last playtrough, but the portals got all messed, and i was overwhelmed
"portals got all messed up"? in what way?
i got teleports in onde galaxy and other, them other, for me was like i where cheating changing galaxy at will, and sometimes i started to explore and noticed i where in the wrong galaxy... is more an "imersion" thing for me
oh i see, yeah, fair enough 🙂
Guys y’all telling me that I gotta repair ALL of my shi after meeting the atlas one last time or whatever (idk how far I am in the story tbh)
if new beginnings mission is in your mission Log - well, if you want to continue, or if you already saved after this happened, then yeah, you're going to have to fix up your ship. that said, ofc, you can repair it gradually, basics first ofc, then upgrade modules, maybe not all at once - but if you got another ship you can just summon it to you and leave. summon your other one later (it can be done at a planet base, even it's completely damaged, after save+reload at that base). can use repair kits for materials you cant really get easily.
I gotta repair my suit, multi tool and ship?! 😭💔
I’m saving up for a dreadnought man 😔
yeah. to fix up your multitool basics, remember that you can melee rocks and plants. repair kits can be obtained for free too, mission boards sometimes have them for example. also, wiring looms can be cheap, if you buy+install+dismantle c-class ship weapon modules, like 70 nanites or something per loom
depending on discounts yeah
I had to fix the basics because I was dying on a glacial planet 🥴 so I guess that’s my dreadnought dream gone for now
I thought I was supposed to die first so I just went w it, my first death in the entire game
Do you mean a Pirate Dreadnought? Those are free
Wait what
sentinel dreadnought? well, there's plenty of ways to make units in the game tbh. if you need some tips on that let us know
Pirate Dreadnoughts are always free
I been saving up so much for it to be free? 😭
You just have to make them surrender.
You can do this by destroying their hyperdrive, then either lowering their health to 25% or destroying all of their Anti-Freighter Cannons.
I once had this encounter and I tried so hard to make it surrender just for me to destroy it 😔
This can be done with the dinkiest of starships on the hardest of difficulties, if you know what to shoot
Turned out it was a S tier too
I’m doing it with my corvette bc of the laser beam thing I got on there
and yeah, dont bother with protecting the npc freighter, just laser focus on pirate dreadnought
I can have it surrender after the npc’s been defeated too?!
I did it all wrong the first time then XD
No, they flee after it's destroyed'
pirate freighter wont have enough time with a bit of practice
they'll get its shields down, but not much else
I destroyed the pirates after they destroyed the npc
Accidentally
you probably wrecked its engines
Is there an holo-arena blueprint available yet?
in the back
I couldn’t find the back somehow
It was like a twisted blanket in the middle of the night
Couldn’t find anything
when you warp in, you're always going to be facing the battle area from the same position, so it's automatic almost; also, the "approach vector" icon can help a bit. can also use photo mode+move the sun to figure out your surroundings for a bit.
I remember spawning in and the thing looking like it’s inside out twisted 3000 times haha
yeah, would need to see a screenshot to understand what you mean here
But either way, thank you guys! I’ll be repairing my components (sadly) and finding a ship
Didn’t make one
no problem 🙂
It was in the middle of the night and I was tired like crazy 🤣
Spent the whole night looking for one of these things for me to destroy it
10% of t3 conflict and 20% of outlaw systems have a property set that always triggers the pirate freighter battle on every warp in, as long as you've met the reqs to spawn pirate freighter. plenty of coordinates to systems like these posted online 🙂
I’m just warping to pirate systems until I find one
yep, that works
I think imma just claim it don’t matter if it’s C or S
higher freighter class doesnt matter much if you mostly summon your freighter around and rely on storage rooms and other inventories for 90% of your items
For me that’s the only use for them, haven’t found out how to jump with them either haha
on the bridge, the hologram table, the galaxy map terminal
I got a encounter
Destroyed the engines and shields
What do I do to make it surrender now?
lower its health - shoot all fuel rods in both trenches
you can make them surrender by destroying engines and cannons
that's what gets them to surrender for me
you can do both
some prefer the trench runs, others shooting all cannons, but both require shooting all engines
Guess who got a B Class dreadnought 🔥🔥🔥🔥
congrats! 🙂
And it’s got my favorite aliens in it as well, life is good
Thank you guys so so much 🙏❤️
always feel free to ask whenever you're unsure of/are stuck on something! otoh, remember that you can get a list of faq- commands by typing !faq in #nms-commands
Well matter of fact I do have one last question, I got some stuff destroyed now and one last fuel rod standing out, can I repair this somehow? Or do I like destroy it or sum?
Should remedy itself in time. At the very least, now that the dreadnaught is (presumably) yours, this sort of physical damage will mean nothing.
Alright! Thanks. I was getting a bit worried about the freighter haha
In the nmsce website when searching for ships is there a way to filter by who posted
Yes, in the "additional inputs" when toggling them at the top-ish
this also shows many more specific search parameters
Reason why I’m asking is funny enough you are the only one who says class of ship and coords
so there is no difference between different classes of the habs for the corvette?
Other than cosmetic differences, correct
Other than visually I don’t think so
👍
aren't paradise planets not supposed to have sentinels?
Worlds with Low Sentinel Activity lack patrols, but still have them at structures
like Depots, Manufacturing Facilities and Sentinel Pillars
on Survival/Permadeath/On-Foot Combat = Hostile, worlds that have Low Sentinel activity will still have sentinel patrols, just slightly less of them (worlds with Low Sents on this difficulty are very rare)
I can't seem to rotate the Ceto class reactor, is this normal?
Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
Are all living ships S-class?
yes
yeah i was about to say
literal living sentient alien ships created with impossible and horrific technology
I just got mine and it looks incredible, its a white and black
what are living ships
its in the name
extremely rare but they are pretty much literal alien beings that act as a starship
A special type of starship acquired from a Void Egg, they use completely different technology/recharging stuff #nms-commands message
do living ships even have upgrades?
Their "rarity" can't really be compared when they are always manually spawned by the player via a mission
wow I'm sure I've never seen one
Can You have multiple corvettes?
yes
Is there a system where a bunch of players go to? Like besides the anomaly
What are the possibilities for deep space object encounters? I avoid them because I don't like the jump scares
But sometimes when landing or entering a planet's atmosphere it will trigger and it will be some pilot trying to sell me goods
Many, see #1418605454300549120
Yes, they take up starship slots, and you can have up to 12 active starships at a time. You can also place an extra 18 starships into the Starship Archive accessed aboard your freighter, but corvette-class starships are not compatible with this
and that the item used for said mission is gotten with quicksilver
The Wraith, however...
and if you want to delete a corvette, just trade it in for another ship and sell that
When is the freighter rescue? Ive played a little since then and i havent encountered it
What are Corvette class starship?
The type of starship added in the Voyagers update, they are far larger than any other type of starship, you can walk inside of them and they can be fully customized both on the exterior and interior
Keep progressing the main story until a certain point in the mission "Ghosts in the Machine"
Okay thats sad i was hoping on having more than 1 of them
Again, you can have more than one corvette
As I stated previously, they take up the same space as any other starship, and you can have up to 12 active starships
I meant more of the bigger ones
No the ones that you could walk inside of
Then yes, you can own more than one corvette as I stated prior
Corvettes are a type of starship, you can own up to 12 starships at a time
Oh okay sorry i missunderstod
Plus the extra 18 that you can store in your Starship Archive but corvettes can't be stored in there
mission / spoier question: online i keep finding different answers about doing missions before the purge or after. I want to get done with the purge so that i can change galaxies, will i be able to do my side missions and the atlas path normally after that ?
Yes
There aren't any missions that cancel or lock out other missions
I'm having trouble finding runaway mould deposits, can anyone offer advice? I want to find a deposit so I can build a nanite farm
you might have an issue with atlas stations not being visible in the galaxy map in a galaxy not-euclid, but you could just return to euclid to complete the atlas path if you didnt do so while doing the 16 warps for the purge
check out <#nms-questions message> and the post after it
ok, ty, so its like a little bugged in other galaxies or is that intended?
a little bugged yeah
Basically just explore a planet until you find Curious Deposits, Sac Venom or Metal Fingers. If you find Sac Venom or Metal Fingers then move on to the next planet
ok thanks 🙂
Is there a website that tells me what preferable upgrades to put on my ship
Im on the alone amidst the stars primary quest but have no idea what to do with calibrating the translator
This depends on the type of starship and what you wish to prioritize, but for non-corvette ships you can fit all tech/upgrades onto a fully upgraded ship
what does the mission tooltip lower right of the screen when you're playing says you need to do? feel free to post a screenshot
go out to space, does the tooltip update to something "further"? is there a marker already with the same mission icon to go to? side note, preferably, if posting pictures with a phone try grabbing the picture using landscape orientation, and zoom out enough so we can see the entire screen
hmm, did you move systems recently? or are still in the same one you did the first step on?
or, is there any icon on the edges of the screen
I have moved many systems
goto the station again sorry, interact with teleporter, screenshot - there should be a destination with the same mission icon (that red one), perhaps also stating under the title the mission name
What teleporter
the teleporter in the space station, in front of the trade terminal
Okay im in there
interact with teleporter, screenshot; look at the list, there should be a destination with the same mission icon (that red one), perhaps also stating under the title the mission name
hmm nothing there. unlikely, but is there a restart using nearby structures button in the mission Log lower right of the screen?
There isnt
iirc, for this stage, you had to use a chart to mark a building, right?
I think so
did you use it, or do you still have it on you?
A planetary chart?
yeah, a consumable item
I used 1 but got another 1
the quest itself iirc should have given you one, when you use it it should auto mark a plaque building, from which you should pick help with language option
@lavish badge either try to trace back your steps through the systems you visited recently, or get 3 alien charts/an exocraft with radar power resonator tech, find another plaque, and do seek help with language, hopefully that progresses the mission as well
Okay
i'd go with the latter, since it's not too hard to get the nav data to exchange for specific charts at the station cartographer, or get the data+nanites for the exocraft way
Thank you!
np, happy to try and help. if it doesnt work, then try to retrace or trigger out of range state for the mission (let us know)
Alright
is there a cooldown between pirate encounters?
Possibly, idk. Do you mean the encounters where pirates attack a freighter when you warp in? If so, then yes #no-mans-sky message except for special systems that ignore this cooldown #no-mans-sky message
not when using systems that always trigger the pirate freighter rescue battle
I use the race GEK ,can this be used with GEK race ?
yes
to use the scripted event, yes, you must meet the 3h and 5 ship warps since last battle
Then yes #no-mans-sky message except for special systems that ignore this cooldown #no-mans-sky message
All cosmetics can be used with all races, except for head options which themselves are tied to race
I see ,thanks again
Pretty much, warp to many different outlaw systems if you both own a freighter and have encountered 2 freighter battles so far
Appreciate the info !
i'd say that if your only goal rn is to get a pirate freighter, and you already meet the reqs grouch mentioned to spawn them, yeah
if you got other goals that you'd also like to going towards, then maybe accumulating 3h of gameplay will just fly by
that timer doesnt reset when you quit game btw
doing the 5 warps, simply always exit ship in station before warping out
or just ignore all that and portal to one of the systems grouch linked above 😄
Would this be a good trade? I came across another dreadnought and I’m thinking if this one might be better then my old one
It looks like a good trade in for me i can’t lie
i'd say yes, because it has a larger inventory size and even 1 sc slot revealed
Fair lool
Alright!
remember that installed tech and modules dont auto migrate to new freighter
and also,
Yea dw i got them in my inventory
Oh I could’ve removed the tech from the last freighter haha
Didn’t know that
Good to know now before I had a OP freighter
If i warp into an atlas interface system can i have a freighter battle or no?
no
atlas interface and black hole systems never have those
same with uncharted systems (no race icon)
but if i have warped to 4 atlas stations and then a normal one will there be a battle or no?
yeah, basically what i'd suggest is when you finally decide that you want to exchange/"get serious" about it, just make sure to either have matter beam freighter tech installed already (so you can manage tech inventory remotely from anywhere; store matter beam last) or have already stored techs and modules from old freighter
hell yeah
yes, unless the system you're warping to is an uncharted system
If you have also exhausted the 3 cumulative hours of unpaused gameplay time since your last battle part of the cooldown, yes
||how much lore would i miss out on if i chose to let artemis die?||
idk if i did the spoiler thing right so i can delete it if im not meant to do that
||None really||
alr tysm. I have found an outlaw system so time to get my capital ship 🔥
would just get some different dialogs basically, could always do a new save sometime later to see
if I swap will I lose my upgrades?
ahh alr thank you thank you
Any technology and cargo in your freighter's core inventory are lost upon exchange, yes
you can summon your freighter nearby to package those possibly
I lowkey just turned on the setting for that haha
does that include my storage?
or is that like its own thing
Like Storage Containers? Those are their own inventories, they can never be lost
you can build them again if you choose not to transfer your base, and they will have the same stuff in them as they did prior
oh whew
I see u can paint freighters, but all colors are locked, how do I unlock it?
In the "Base Parts & Upgrades" menu
5k nanites a pop
5K?! Do I look like Elon musk to this game? 😭🙏
with some strategies they can be really easy to unlock
Aha
for example, with high race rep, you could buy upgrade modules for half price and sell them right back at full price lol
if i need like tens of thousands of nanites these days, i go with sus packets tech/arms farming. in short, turning units into nanites
How do I get salvaged frigate modules?

Salvage Frigate Modules (sources)
Recommended Derelict Freighter system
Euclid: 











- A few jellyfish
- 53 Crates
- 1-3 SFMs per visit
source: Xaine (YouTube video
)
Notes:
- Lockers and suitcases in Derelict Freighters won't drop SFM.
- Attacking NPC freighters in Outlaw systems doesn't trigger Sentinel ships.

Oh sheesh
sigh
i like doing mission boards, fleet expeditions, sometimes attacking npc freighter cargo pods, but after i get the standing, i start relying on guild envoys and mission boards
not alone, i still do fleet expeditions so
Are the corvette missions decent?
sure, but those are like nexus missions
Hi uh, how do I find like a dissonance resonator so I can find crashed sentinel ships
I tried flying to a dissonant planet and using the analysis visor
find a dissonant planet with not a lot of mountains, look for resonators using visor, ship, exocraft
got an A class venator on my 1st try
@upper hawk flying low and slow, quick scanning with exocraft might help. i tend to look for them on dead/weird biome planets
if you like how it looks, first freighter class isnt a huge thing to look out for, given how easy it is to get and exchange to another freighter later on
I really wanted a venator so i didnt care for S class
but now that its an A class i wont say no 🤣
Alr thanks, yeah cuz im tryna help my friend get a sentinel ship
looks like that should work well yeah. i sometimes look for a building first, then i'll search around that building, makes it easier to stay focused. also, after finding a building, i tend to start exploring north or south
Hey, I'm brand new to NMS and starting to get kind of frustrated with flying back and forth from my Capitol SHip.
What should I focus on first?
but flying back and forth from capital ship aka freighter to say, a base? have you unlocked the freighter teleporter room? that comes in handy
Nah, I figured i'd go farm some frighter's in a pirate system to unlock some stuff for mine?
is it possible for a planet to spawn without a 3-gold star resource? I've been driving my exocraft around for 15 minutes and still havent seen anything
yeah, you can get salvaged frigate modules from cargo pods on freighters, simply approach the cargo pods and see what the game says they have inside. see <#nms-questions message> for all the sources
not that i'm aware of
every single planet has it
why is changing the color so expensive holyyy 😭
check out <#nms-questions message>
Changing colors is free, just that unlocking new colors is expensive
How can I get these? I used a Save editor but it dsays previously collected. I cant seem to find anything online about getting these to work i wasnt around for the expidition
have you checked your colossus customization options at the colossus geobay?
wait really? So i can buy at a discount and sell full price?
I had no idea
yeah, if you max out rep, you get 50% off stuff on upgrade module shops - selling it though, it's always full price
additionally, save+reload restocks module shops so..
no way thats insane
i have like 42 standing with korvax so i will go trade rn xD
yeah, 100 positive standing points and you're maxed
Check at a Colossus Geobay's customisation terminal, you most likely now have them unlocked
you said that i can also trade black market upgrades?
in that case, you have a unit sink; buy sus packets tech/arms with units, unpack, sell modules for nanites
For the dissonant resonators, am i looking for the sharded glass or some other thing for finding crashed sentinel ships?
i have millions of units so that would be easy thank you so muchhh
is there a way to see this inverted?
to find lots of ships you only need 1 harmonic camp - and to find that, you just need 1 echo locator. approach a resonator, aim at it, it will tell you what it will drop. side note, for every sentinel ship you want to claim,you'll need 3 shards and 1 inv mirror
by inverted i mean - show all items that need heat capacitor as an ingredient
well gona make my own lol
no reverse dependency filter
found this but seems old and doesnt cut it for me
I use this one
ahh fusion accelart got a new icon
Does someone have an nice name for an S Black and White Frighter?=
@stuck berry ouch i'm home and i have the nms save to change galaxy you know how to use?
can you kill people in this game without repurcussions?
Obsidian Halo
someone shot at me for no reason in the galactic hub, im going back to finish them off
I want an majestic name
probably a topic better suited for general chat, #no-mans-sky
Just open the save editor that I linked https://github.com/vectorcmdr/NMSE then load the correct save slot, then enter the desired galaxy number and press "Apply Coordinates", then save, then go back to the game and load that save slot. Galaxies outside of the 1-256 range fundamentally do not exist, not sure why they list a 257th one.
well I've already murdered him now, and then i blew him up again after he respawned with a crashed ship
seems about fair for attacking someone for no reason
how do i get an echo locator?
killing a dissonance resonator?
Yes
because 257th would be 256 in binary, 0 is also a number
gentle reminder: you can turn off pvp in save options/network settings
my guess
oh ok
Not how it works in the game, internally gal 0 is Euclid and gal 255 is Odyalutai
the guy said he was going to report me for trolling him for killing him
ones that say they have echo locator in them, yes - it can drop from other sources too, but this is the primary one
Can i also change the interior color of a freigher or no?
im pretty sure high-level corrupted sentinels can drop echo locators but its really rare
I auggest destroying a good chunk of them, echo resonators are great but the mirror things you get from them are useful for fixing up claimable sentinel ships and such
probably as long as you leave them alone now nothing will happen
At best, you can change the color of the base areas' parts
thats what i meant, thanks
for some reason though i cant see my other ships inside. I have 3 and i can only see my main one
resummon freighter
In your freighters' hangar, up to 5 of your active but non-primary starships will be placed on landing pads
i have the inverted mirror and echo locator. now how do i get the next thing
they probably haven't spawned yet due to you just claiming the freighter
Use the echo locator from your inventory
ok let me try teleporting to my base and summoning it
pop the echo locator: if it says no harmonies detected, you need a diff dissonant system
anyone know roughtly the stat ranges for s class fighters (as they spawn in a space station) i just got one with these stats and idk if they're good
i have found the tech/cargo slots ranges in the wiki
It's S-Class, meaning it has it's stat bonus % ranges in the S-Class bounds so it's not ever gonna be "bad". These are bonus % values that apply to the final stat, so they are magnified with installed tech/upgrades and aren't very easy to determine in-game
Do solar panels work deep underwater?
yes they are all here thank you!
They work buried under 100u of soil
yeah i saw these values in the wiki i guess i got misled by what i was seeing onscreen
Basically, the variance isn't large enough to stress out about getting a whole different S-Class fighter
like all ships, upgrades matter a lot more
as someone who used to care a lot about stuff like that, it really changes nothing in the end
am i able to send an image as a spoiler

cuz i either found a typo or i am just really stupid
Yes, see the post above
what eye icon?
On desktop, it looks like this
That is the correct spelling of civilisation in british-english
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
there is an English-US option, but it is extremely rushed and has only like a dozen changes
i see i see alr lmao thanks
I made a mod that fixes that https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/3468
but I haven't gone through the stuff added in 5.70 onwards since it's hard to parse
which is basically just corvette module names and descriptions I think
Are Message Modules for corvettes still obtainable
what do we do with the waste collected by our rig?
I don't have like a place to incinerate it
prcess it to rusted metal/nanites at a waste plant, found with colossus radar
ah
With the Exocraft Radar installed onto your Colossus, use the quick menu to locate a Processing Plant
message module is a base part not specific to corvettes, and yeah, still able to unlock them (anomaly construction research station)
thank you pookie
and if none are found?
move to a diff planet usually
how do we despawn the eyesores permanently?
Go to a planet that lists Salvageable Scrap as a resource
I'm on a paradise planet and there's waste 🙁
in a gek/korvax/vykeen system
due to a weird oversight, there are some worlds that have scrap piles but no waste-related structures
the waste? can't really
if the planet doesn't list "Salvageable Scrap", then it will not have Waste Heals or Processing Plants
or do we look for an uninhabited system with a paradise planet?
uninhabited usually means no waste presence yeah?
just another paradise planet without salvageable scrap on the list
Just find a different planet that doesn't have either Salvageable Scrap or the weird "old scrap" that doesn't show up on the resource list but still spawns waste everywhere
nah unrelated
uninhabited aka uncharted meaning no buildings, but a portal per planet really
no npcs, no npc ships etc
do lost wrecks do smth if u find it in space?
all broken up, nah, just some cargo pods to loot sometimes, low value stuff
here's the weird thing
Yeah, then it's one of those weird ones that I have been describing.
that's so weird

Submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
just some bug yeah
but if I move the waste, will it respawn? can I pile it somewhere?
