[steel ginkgo]

and i cant retire either

[swift sand]

weird but rare bug - if you fly to the station, exit ship+pause+options menu, reload restore point - then fly back down to the settlement, is there an admin building there?

[steel ginkgo]

let me try that

[paper timber]

so whats the strat with heptaloid wheat or whatever

[swift sand]

building probably isnt below ground, but there's a way to go under it and see

[swift sand]

are you asking about our convo before?

[paper timber]

kinda

[swift sand]

can you elaborate?

[paper timber]

trying to make the honey puffs and im trying to find wheat

[swift sand]

to cook refined flour?

[paper timber]

yes

[swift sand]

grow frostwort, process frost crystal to glass grains, glass grains to ref flour

[paper timber]

ohh

that works

nice

[pliant star]

Is update today or tomorrow

[swift sand]

we dont know for sure, but probably not today

[cinder bison]

I only make flour with kelp rice cause it’s easy to find haha

[analog scroll]

When it comes out. We have no idea

[pliant star]

Ah OK thanks

[swift sand]

yeah, true, pretty much everywhere underwater, but yeah we can do it via things we can grow at bases

[cinder bison]

Unless that’s already an ingredient I just have a ton of

[analog scroll]

You can make refined flour from Glass Grains, which come from Frost Crystals (which you can grow every hour)

[viscid magnet]

in a corvette ship is there any way to colour the flooring

[pliant star]

Using the wall panels on floor

It kinda workd

Works sorry*

[viscid magnet]

ok thanks

[cinder bison]

@swift sand @analog scroll I had a question for yall 2 about 2 weeks ago regarding the food donation.. turns out I’m no longer allowed to donate after reaching 100% however I’m still able to see all 6 daily food items luckily

[swift sand]

gtk! ty!

[cinder bison]

Does anyone in here have page 1 of cooking recipes 100% done? Would you mind sending a pic in here so I can look up the 3 I’m missing

[steel ginkgo]

term is still missing

[austere grove]

how do i migrate my save game files from xbox game(windows) to steam

[analog scroll]

You can upload the save to the cross save program, then download it to Steam

You have to have access to the game on the source system (Xbox in your case) for this to be an option

[swift sand]

carbon nanotube, refreshing drink and grahjam

[cinder bison]

Dude you are a legend thanks so much

Carbon nanotubes tho? I feel like that’s something I did when I first started playing lol

[swift sand]

but did you cook it though

[cinder bison]

I didn’t !!

Legend fr

[swift sand]

yeah, some weird bug. i'm not sure, i think it wont work, but you could try to find another settlement on the same planet, using settlement charts

[steel ginkgo]

this is a negative settlement, wont this kill my credit income

[swift sand]

nah, that's not coming out of your pocket

[swift sand]

we can have up to 4 settlements per save, but with a max of 1 per planet

[steel ginkgo]

i don't think i can retire this one settlement either

[swift sand]

right

but perhaps taking another on the same planet will work and auto discard the first one

it depends on the stages of each settlers mission, it could be worth a shot

[steel ginkgo]

hmmm let me see

[fading oar]

When the bee thing promised by Sean, approximately?

[analog scroll]

When it's released. There is no timeframe

[fading oar]

I've seen some approximations, that 3 emojis mean that update is within 24-48h timeframe - is that true?

[analog scroll]

Historically, but it could be more

[fading oar]

Like, not the rule, but usually happened so.

[pliant star]

I js started my permadeath save since my last one got deleted bit I was js thinking what's the difference between permanent and survival apart from how if u die ur save is deleted?

Permadeath not permanent*

[analog scroll]

I'm not sure if there are more differences other than save deletion

[swift sand]

do believe T is correct

[stuck berry]

Permadeath has the exact same options selected by default as Survival, just with Save Deletion

Also, PD allows you to change options within allowed limits and still get the achievements (including lowering options to certain amounts)

while Survival fully prohibits the achievement if you ever lower anything

[paper timber]

is there a bug where using a nutrition unit on a freighter just makes your ingredients disappear?

[analog scroll]

If you leave refiners, nutrition units, etc with anything in them, the contents can disappear (this would not impact ingredient storage)

Babysitting them prevents this

[paper timber]

so its very

not secure

[wheat cove]

They may also sometimes also randomly reappear, but don't count on it

[paper timber]

so i have to wait for each time for the "refinement" to be done for me to be able to play the game?

[keen portal]

I personally find that warping tends to make them disappear
and then warping back to where you came from tends to make them reappear
not entirely sure how consistent this is though

[paper timber]

that really infuriates me

[paper timber]

im going to try this

[swift sand]

sometimes toggling multiplayer on and off might also do the trick

[bleak gulch]

How does the game run on base m1 MacBook Air?

[swift sand]

this was a while back but it seems that it should run pretty good https://www.youtube.com/shorts/gTrBext7zxM

[bright dove]

How small can freighters be?

[swift sand]

system freighters can be pretty small

[swift sand]

i'm sure you can find some examples on nmsce.com 🙂

yep, that's a pretty small one

[bright dove]

Baby freighter

It looks like

A toddler version of a freighter

Will it grow if I add more cargo?

[swift sand]

just looks, no influence on stats beyond starting inventory size or functionalities

[pastel light]

At least with the interceptors I wish the people uploading would put the ship class and the coords

[bright dove]

What are those

[pastel light]

Sentinel ship

[bright dove]

Can I own a sentinel freighter

[swift sand]

well, many dont because 1 sentinel ship design per suitable dissonant ship

[swift sand]

you can own a sentinel capital freighter, but not the space police one

[bright dove]

That's so cool

How do I obtain

Or is it bad

[swift sand]

capital freighters can only spawn in rescue battle events, and only after completing 2 of those. so just keep playing, if you dont have options/difficulty/space combat set to none, you'll eventually come across the event and rescuing either a venator or a sentinel - only 1 capital freighter design per inhabited system

[cyan void]

Is cargo transferred when claiming a new freighter? I found a S Class

[swift sand]

@bright dove once you complete 2 rescue battle events, simply keep playing and progressing quests etc, but always exit ship to update restore point before warping out to another system.

[swift sand]

check <#nms-commands message>

[bright dove]

Thanks

[pastel light]

When Salvaging, what are the chances of getting the ship augmentation or whatever it’s called

That explained slots

[swift sand]

!faq-storageaugments in #nms-commands for more infos

[swift sand]

besides personal preference about looks (and remember we can color customize a freighter we own, though we need to unlock colors first), the only thing i could say is "bad", better said inconvenient about sentinel freighters is those vertical fins in front of the hanger bay entrance

[willow cove]

How do i make my terrain manipulator mine smaller to get more materials

[bright dove]

You press until you get the mine option

[swift sand]

R/T if kbm, bumpers if controller

[bright dove]

Yee

[pastel light]

Best way to learn words from a race

[analog scroll]

Talk to them and ask then to teach you words, or find knowledge stones on planets

[swift sand]

yeah, combine those two

[dusk river]

i havent yet noticed, does expeditions get refreshed if they arent completed?

[cyan void]

Didn’t find out how to do it sadly, lost a few things but not really any important things 😅

[swift sand]

core cargo inventory contents arent transferred automatically - so either change to cargo inventory in the exchange screen, before pressing exchange and push items over to new freighter - or store them elsewhere before talking to the captain

[swift sand]

if they arent completed, you mean, if you recall a fleet i.e. abandon an expedition?

in short, expeditions only refresh at 00h00 UTC

[weary yoke]

I'm having some weird fps drops, even though the game isn't anywhere near using all my system resources. Any ideas what could cause it? It seems to sometimes just drop down to like 30-40 for a while for no reason at all

[tranquil walrus]

Hi all, does it matter which one I pick

[weary yoke]

no, you do them all

[swift sand]

see <#nms-commands message>

are you on steam?

[weary yoke]

yeah

it runs perfectly smooth most of the time, my frames just sometimes plummet some of the time

[swift sand]

laptop yes? temps, not throttling?

[tranquil walrus]

I have simarlar spec , same on occasions it runs bad but most of time it's great

[weary yoke]

yes it's a laptop (FW16), and temps are below throttle

[swift sand]

i assume you're running this on valve's proton, and on xorg/xwayland? have you tried gamescope, or perhaps feral's gamemode?

[weary yoke]

running on GT proton 10-29 rn, although its been persistent with other versions

[cyan void]

Can I return to this location somehow?

[analog scroll]

Not on that save, if you've already passed it

[tranquil walrus]

Lol tying had no clue ha

[cyan void]

Ah shucks I chose a random one because I didn’t know what it was, i wish I could choose the green one 😔💔

[analog scroll]

Summon the Anomaly, go to the big teleporter. One of the featured bases is in Eissentam

Doesn't matter what your choice is at the end of the story other than the immediate impact. You can still get anywhere you want to go in the game

[swift sand]

personally i dont have great results with gamescope, but some do - it might be worth a try. gamemode is basically a set of scripts to optimize schedulers etc. you could possibly also give scx-scheds a try, or perhaps a different DE/window manager. i'd also suggest installing amdgpu_top, keep an eye on that resource usage (if you can do secondary monitor for it, that'd probably be perfect). sounds like it's spilling over to gtt tbh, so it might even be worth checking out the latest dmemcg-booster, which you could pair with gamescope (plasma-foreground-booster only works with Plasma).

[weary yoke]

i am using plasma so I can use that, I'll give that a shot sometime later

[exotic zenith]

I'm going off grid soon, minimal internet. What do I miss by being offline? Things such as "Chance of pirate attack" are equal whether online or off? As well as all the procedural stuff

[analog scroll]

Most of the quicksilver shop, any updates, the ability to start any expedition

[exotic zenith]

The power company are having it off 8-4 and a few weeks ago they did too. New post, there was a crane in the yard and everything. I have an msi claw and battery powered monitor and a couple usb batteries

[analog scroll]

If it's only off for a day, you'll be fine

[swift sand]

a long shot, something else that came to mind, you could make sure it doesnt switch over to igpu - i think you can accomplish this via steam game launch options, something like MESA_VK_DEVICE_SELECT="vendorid:productid" %command%, where vid and pid are taken from e.g. lspci, relevant to the needed card.

[plucky urchin]

Are wild computer bases rare? Is there any way that simplifies their search?

[swift sand]

commercial charts can pop them under the "shelter" category, but not guaranteed ofc, so could need to use quite a few

[analog scroll]

I saw someone the other day who posted that they spawned next to one on a new save. I'd say that was pretty rare

[swift sand]

if they didnt start on creative, yeah

[stuck berry]

That happens 100% of the time when the tutorial is skipped, yeah

[dusk river]

how much materials do you loose if you use bigger teraforming tool?

[stuck berry]

magnitudes

[analog scroll]

Quite a lot, surprisingly. Smaller is absolutely better if you're going for resources

[dusk river]

but its so slow lol

[swift sand]

just do hotspot mining and never need terrain manip for nothing but powder

build a small mine for every mineral and gas you need/want - it harvests even when game is turned off, come back later to thousands of material

[glossy dock]

Is there a date for the update already?

[analog scroll]

No

Release dates for updates are almost never communicated until the release happens

[dusk river]

was about to do something like that, realized i need lots of salvaged data for that

[tranquil walrus]

Sorry, I've chosen an orb it's took me to a new galaxy but everything's broken lol. Do I gotta fix everything haha

[silk pasture]

Will we get corvette docks for smaller ships?

[fresh birch]

You’ll want to fix everything, but to fly all you need to fix are the launch thruster and pulse drive

[gray lodge]

I want to go to a new galaxy. What do I need to do to prevent the most DMG done to equipment

[tranquil walrus]

Not on a fully loaded sentinel shop 😞

Ship

[fresh birch]

Store all tech that can be, put on junk MT and ship

[fresh birch]

Oh dang, what you need? Sentinel ship might mean you’re stranded

If I can join you I can come with emergency supplies

[swift sand]

remember repair kits

[fresh birch]

Also yeah if you got repair kits those work

[gray lodge]

Op item right there lol

[tranquil walrus]

I have inventory i made portal but so many broken things . Ouch

[fresh birch]

Okay phew

Yeah going to a new galaxy sucks unprepared

[gray lodge]

I have a lot of mods on my stuff so I don't want to be stranded lol

[tranquil walrus]

Lol

[fresh birch]

You can store the modules

[gray lodge]

How does it work doing it with the freighter

[swift sand]

still damages exosuit, active ship and mt

[fresh birch]

The freighter would be fine, your current equipped ship, suit, and MT would break

But with a freighter you can make an already broken ship your main ship

[gray lodge]

Ah ok I need to find a trash ship

[tranquil walrus]

Yes tool and suit also filled with broken.. definitely take everything off the stuff before u choose haha

[swift sand]

pilot interface -> harmonic brain -> repair kit

[tranquil walrus]

I'm good got plenty brains and will have tool kits soon. Tyvm

Do the things like the suit refiner nutrient injestor and stuff get dmged

[tranquil walrus]

Yes everything

[earnest swallow]

is it worth keeping two starships? or should i sell one, & why is the sentinal ship at a class better than a s class normal ship (damage & sheild wise)

[tranquil walrus]

But my spare tool are fine so just equipment ones

[gray lodge]

Ooooh. So you just did this

[tranquil walrus]

Yes, Just store everything first if u do it lol

[analog scroll]

If you like both, you can keep both. You can have 12 active ships plus 18 more in deep storage if you choose

[gray lodge]

I haven't done it for so long for this reason lol

[tranquil walrus]

Easy to avoid if you know ha

[earnest swallow]

but i gotta buy or transfer the upgrades each time then no?

[swift sand]

why is the sentinal ship at a class better than a s class normal ship (damage & sheild wise)
define better? bigger inventory size? higher warp range? in short, these arent things to worry about - inventory upgrade limit is set by class and ship type, and the differences between max cargo for each type arent huge. any ship can be upgraded to easily be a daily driver

[twilit wing]

How can i become an living freggate

[earnest swallow]

better for a combat ship

sentinels r better for that right?

[swift sand]

they can all do combat well, it's a lot more about the tech inventory build we use than the ships themselves - though for example, a fighter or an explorer, would be more maneuverable than a sentinel when dogfighting.

the reason for that is hidden behind the game's logic, but in short, it's about how much of the agility bonus ships (including sentinels, fighters etc) can have is applied to core maneuver or boost maneuver (boost maneuver is ofc, maneuverability when pulse boosting). pulse boosting isnt something you do a lot when dogfighting, and that's where sentinels get the larger part of their agility buff applied on

[earnest swallow]

ahkk thxx

[swift sand]

@earnest swallow that said - if you like sentinels, you like sentinels - and they can still shred, and wont give you problems when dogfighting

eheu, even a explorer with 0 damage bonus can 1-2 shot enemies with posi ejector

devs have made it so we dont need to max out stuff, we dont need to "minmax" or specialize

[twilit wing]

bk201

I maked the Starbirth quest and i just landed in systems where are players

But i play on PS4 without PS Plus

[swift sand]

you're in the portal stage then?

free multiplayer weekend?

[twilit wing]

its thuesday

thxx

[swift sand]

well, i dont know - shouldnt be seeing other players without ps+

one thing is player bases, another is actual players

[twilit wing]

ok, then i don't sayed anything sry

But i have another question

[swift sand]

nothing to be sorry about 🙂, always feel free to ask

[swift sand]

shoot

[twilit wing]

Can i add techs to my living ship

[swift sand]

yeah, some. atlantid drive, figurines and starship trails can be installed on them. other than those, they've got a few more prebuilts e.g. wormhole brain (eco+conflict scanner 2 in one), but those only drop prebuilt from psychonic eggs (blueprint not available)

[swift sand]

3rd and 4th links @twilit wing ^

[twilit wing]

And how can i become living techs

[swift sand]

sorry not sure i get the question - was this referring to living frigates?

How can i become an living freggate

[twilit wing]

no, i want to install technologie

[swift sand]

living ships cannot use other ships techs and upgrade modules, with the exception of atlantid drive, figurines and starship trails (the latter two can be unlocked in the quicksilver shop)

to get LS upgrade modules and techs and storage augments, you need to have a living ship, and run fleet expeditions with at least 1 living frigate assigned to them

[twilit wing]

how can i get living frigates

[swift sand]

run fleet expeditions till you get the dream aerial blueprint - then craft it, and goto space and follow its instructions. type !faq-livingfrigate in #nms-commands for more infos.

[twilit wing]

ty

[swift sand]

@twilit wing to be clear, you dont need a living ship to obtain living frigates, but you do need a living ship to randomly find the alien melody space encounter (which is a drop source for LS upgrade modules only). remember that we can evolve lower class LS upgrade modules after they're installed, up to s-class, using nanites.

[shrewd saddle]

do i have to build the base in the tutorial on the second planet? or can i go back to the first one?

[twilit wing]

i dont unterstand it, so i just need to warp in my system?

[swift sand]

can go back to any base you already have built yeah

[swift sand]

space encounters trigger when we're pulsing, like going really fast between planets (that's not warping)

[dusk river]

im not sure but i believe if you deliver one item to a secure depot, all active missions will get completed

[swift sand]

of the same type? same resource? shouldnt be allowed to in those missions yeah

[brave quartz]

How does one achieve this posture

[swift sand]

this "posture"?

[brave quartz]

Jits a joke ablut how the head is like that

I meant to put it in the other channel on nms

[swift sand]

oh that's one of the vilebrood helmets yeah, i think it just makes characters like that lol

Any ideas when the update will drop?

soon we hope, we dont know

[dusk river]

even different recources but i believe to the same depot

like i had my starship filled with some recources

[brave quartz]

What’s the chance of a head drop from the brood

[dusk river]

go to secure depot, delivery screen pops up once, pretty much all missions completed but items stayed

[swift sand]

iirc it was 25% for each, but it got harder to unlock the last ones

[brave quartz]

Ok

[swift sand]

yeah, definitely not how it's supposed to go

[shrewd saddle]

so when i die i lose everything on me?

[cyan void]

Can I “equip” titles I have? Like the “Admiral of the Black” I got from the highest outlaw standing?

[shrewd saddle]

yes, in space station

[cyan void]

Where?

[analog scroll]

Appearance Modifier, specifically

Backpack tab

Maybe banner, can't remember

[cyan void]

Wait what 😭 how did I miss that

[swift sand]

death consequences depend on options/difficulty settings: if not on survival or pd, if item loss is set, you get a grave to retrieve inventory contents after you die

[analog scroll]

It's easy to overlook

[shrewd saddle]

gotchaa

im playing normal for now

will go for permadeath once i have 10-20 hours

[swift sand]

getting out of the hole is the hardest on any game mode, after that it becomes a whole lot smoother

[cyan void]

How did I get my banner from C-class to S-Class? I never focused on it but I just saw it it like that now

[swift sand]

equipped ship class is s-class iirc

[cyan void]

My equipped ship is C, freighter is S tho

[swift sand]

what about multitool?

[cyan void]

A

[swift sand]

probably changed to s-class when you obtained s-class gear

it was connected to that

[dusk river]

does these disapear and get replaced with possitve traits?

[cyan void]

Only S class thing I got on my exosuit is my jet pack, anyway not that it really matters since it’s cool I got S class now. How do I unlock more appearance styles?

[analog scroll]

Eventually, as the frigate improves

[dusk river]

so by the time it gets to S class it should have 5 possitive traits?

[swift sand]

having 5 positives is what makes it s-class

[dusk river]

what about those C class that got 2 possitive traits? do they get extra one?

[swift sand]

see <#nms-questions message>

[swift sand]

when a rankup happens, a negative is deleted; if there arent any negative traits left, and frigate has less than 5 traits, a new trait gets added with each rankup. rankup isnt the same as a class upgrade

[fresh birch]

Is it not possible to build a large flat spot to park my corvette on?

[analog scroll]

No

[fresh birch]

Dang, thank you

[dusk river]

those two trading circles

does items only sell in next one or anything next?

[analog scroll]

You can sell items in any economy, but each economy has a corresponding economy where the items sell for more than others

[cinder bison]

I built a base and I have a spot where I drive my corvette into and exit ship while it’s hovering.. only work around possible lol

[dusk river]

im talking about these

[analog scroll]

So am I

[dusk river]

says should be sold in next, so only next or any?

[analog scroll]

You can sell trade goods from Trading economies (for example) anywhere, but you'll get a better price selling them to Advanced Materials

Note that this is Trade Goods Only

[dusk river]

okey

[cyan void]

I feel schizophrenic in this game sometimes, I believe there is an appearance modifier in the anomaly right? Or am I seeing things again

[analog scroll]

There is. Room up the ramp from the quicksiver merchant

In the back corner

[cyan void]

YES I knew I wasn’t going insane, thanks!

[shrewd saddle]

does anyone know what that is?

[analog scroll]

Sentinel Pillar

[shrewd saddle]

whats that

[analog scroll]

Place where you can potentially get a royal multi tool and where you can temporarily shut down the sentinels on that planet

[shrewd saddle]

tell me more

[analog scroll]

What more do you need to know?

[shrewd saddle]

whats a royal multi tool and how do i shut down the sentinels

[fresh birch]

If I could tell the game where I want it to hover when I use my teleporters that would be fine, but it seems to pick whatever spot it wants lol

[analog scroll]

And you interact with the terminal on one of the side pillars to shut down the sentinels. Once shut down, they remain shut down until you leave the system or restart your game

[shrewd saddle]

#nms-questions message

[willow cove]

what does this mean?

[pliant star]

It's a pirate system so you can't warp there

[analog scroll]

Means you're in a regulated space station and can't travel to a pirate system (or vice versa) OR you haven't yet completed Under a Rebel Star, but have started it

Rather, that your Freighter is in one of those places

[willow cove]

okay so i need to use the warp to get out and cant use the teleporter?

[analog scroll]

You can teleport from a planetary base, but not from a space station or your freighter

[pliant star]

If Im on permadeath and I start expedition on the permadeath save does that mean in the expedition if I die my save is gone or can I die in expedition?

[analog scroll]

Expeditions have their own rules. When one is active, and you start it from your main save, it's a save within a save, typically they follow the same rules as a Normal save

[pliant star]

So if I die In expedition I keep my permadeath?

Thanks

[reef karma]

Hey! I'm pretty new to the game and farmed a whole bunch of activated indium with no knowledge of the market 😵‍💫 so I was wondering where people usually go to sell this stuff?

[analog scroll]

They don't, it's not worth the effort anymore; but if you have to just find any pilot and sell to them

[reef karma]

Roger that 👍 thanks

[agile dirge]

How do I check to see if multiple is on?

[analog scroll]

To see what?

[agile dirge]

If multiplayer is on.

[analog scroll]

Options > Network. Going to the Anomaly can verify that everything is working the way it should be (you should see other players)

[agile dirge]

I may sound crazy but I have my reasons.

I don’t have network in options…

Im on Nintendo if it helps.

[analog scroll]

Then you're on Xbox and do not have Gamepass (or on Switch 1), in which case you don't have access to multiplayer

[agile dirge]

I have the game pass.

[analog scroll]

It's not active. The Network option is hidden if it's not active (or that traffic is being blocked)

<:info:850810445577453658> No Man's Sky - Matchmaking Issues

📖 Did you know? Matchmaking/Multiplayer in No Man's Sky is peer-to-peer based, not server-based.

This means that if anything is blocking p2p traffic, it will block multiplayer on NMS as well.

Common Causes (PC)

• Antivirus
• Firewall
• Other blocking software (Malwarebytes)
• Router
• Internet Service Provider

Common Causes (Console)

• Router
• Internet Service Provider
• No active subscription to GamePass/PS-Plus/Nintendo Switch Online

Less Common

• Account setting in Steam or Xbox limiting online gameplay
• Clock out of sync
• Country you're connecting from (Egypt, Israel, and at least 1 German ISP are known to block this traffic)
• Starlink is also known to block this traffic (fix: turn off its malware detection in Starlink app/Content filtering)

Exitlag is a VPN that has been known to work for players in Egypt

Disabling Cloudflare WARP, if enabled, has helped some on Deutsche Telekom

Thanks. I’ll try to figure it all out.

[analog scroll]

Step 1: Verify your gamepass subscription. Step 2: Where are you connecting from?

[steel ginkgo]

i see people reccomending corvettes, is this worth it semi-early on since the cost on this is huge

[analog scroll]

If you like them, sure. Ships are entirely subjective in this game

[jagged pine]

guys, how does the event defending freighters work? I completed it 4 hours ago but an hour ago I quit the game. Now im back and did 5 warps and nothing. Is 3 hour CD since the event finishing or it should be non stop 3 hours of gameplay?

[analog scroll]

3 hours played since the last rescue event, and 5 warps. Cumulative, not consecutive; but there are a lot of things that can pause the timer

[tulip dust]

No Man's Sky - Gameplay Event timers

Any action that brings up a menu, dialogue choice or otherwise halts gameplay. This includes interacting with any terminal, NPC, POI etc. in any system.

• While in the Galaxy Map.
• While the game is loading a new system (e.g. warping, teleporting, black hole).
• While the game is paused.
• When the game is not the focused window (when Alt + Tabbed away from)
• When the game is closed.

ty guys

oh shit, I can't alt tab sheeet xD

and 5 warps will only count when those 3 hours played, right?

[analog scroll]

Pausing the gameplay timer isn't the only thing that alt tabbing can cause

[analog scroll]

The warps count at any point, but both have to be completed. If you warp 6 times in 2 hours of gameplay, then play for an hour in that last system, your next warp will trigger the event

[jagged pine]

oh, now I got it

is there anything on empty planets except resources?

No

anyone though about what the bee stands for?

[analog scroll]

They're turning us all into Jerry Seinfeld a-la Bee Movie so we can sue a tennis playing Patrick Warburton? (sarcasm)

[cedar gazelle]

There is an ARG going on that requires numbers. Bee could mean hivemind

[crude walrus]

What do I get for donating food to iteration cronus?

[swift sand]

nanites

food market probably the best way, can be fun

could also do specific recipes like delicious vegetable stew

[cedar gazelle]

Tomorrow we get bees

[analog scroll]

Perhaps

[hushed saffron]

maybe it is a reference to the old-fashioned idiom "the bee's knees" and this update will actually overhaul the knees of every player and living organism, or add terrifying bee monsters with legs

or both

[analog scroll]

I'd be ok with that 😂

[hushed saffron]

‎ 🐝
🦵 🦵

[willow cove]

with my ancient bones should i just sell them or is there anything special to do with them to earn more moeny?

[hot birch]

Because bees don't normally have legs...

[hushed saffron]

i should specify: human legs

[shrewd saddle]

how rare is this? this is my second system

[hot birch]

Oh

I'm not sure how to feel about human legs...

[analog scroll]

Depends where you are in the galaxy

[analog scroll]

No, just sell them

[shrewd saddle]

and how do i know that

[hushed saffron]

given it's their second system it's likely still in the euclid spawn ring so probably not very rare

[analog scroll]

Open the galaxy map, if you're still in the outer ring (or very close to the core) it's likely not too uncommon as TNF said

[hushed saffron]

as suspected

[swift sand]

@shrewd saddle galaxy map, top left, below "minimap": if that number is around 700K, you're still in the starting rings

that's where all players start basically

[shrewd saddle]

pretty sure theres a ton of undiscovered systems here tho

[swift sand]

yeah, surely

[hushed saffron]

players spawn in a ring ~700k light years from the core

definitely

[analog scroll]

There are a ton of undiscovered systems everywhere

[hushed saffron]

if you travel up or down, or move out of the ring, you will find way way less discovered systems

[analog scroll]

There are trillions of star systems, literally

[shrewd saddle]

can i just teleport to the core?

[analog scroll]

If you had a base there, or were in a group with someone who was there, or there was a featured base there

You can take a portal close to the core, but that involves learning at least 1 portal glyph

[willow cove]

how do i solve the portal questions?

[analog scroll]

At a monolith? Pick one. Assuming you got there via your ship if it's the wrong answer reload your restore point and pick a different one

[hot birch]

That doesn't look like a monolith to me

[willow cove]

How do i set up a waypoint?

[cedar gazelle]

What are your hopes for the bee update?

[shrewd saddle]

this is a monolith

[swift sand]

a more reliable one? use a save beacon or a claimed base computer

[swift sand]

this is a plaque btw, not a monolith - plaque cant locate portals

[hot birch]

This is an ancient plaque which I believe do not lead to portals

Oh oop

[swift sand]

probably a topic better suited for #no-mans-sky

[swift sand]

correct yeah

[cedar gazelle]

oh whoops didn't realise sorry

[swift sand]

@willow cove how to locate a portal, flowcharts: exocraft / alien charts

[hot birch]

Afaik, the colossus scan will always lead to a monolith if you scan for alien structures, not sure about nomad and romer though

[swift sand]

same deal with other exos, as long as they can install power resonator tech - but it can actually mark a plaque too, it's just rarer - so much so that many think that it can only locate monoliths

[raven oracle]

guys quick question: why is no mans sky a game, which is for morrons, not in a mean way, just for stupid or low iq people?

[analog scroll]

Perhaps #no-mans-sky or #off-topic-bond-james-bond

[shrewd saddle]

the mission objective is somewhere on this mountain, is it even possible to reach it?

[swift sand]

looks like it; remember that jetpacking while face hugging a vertical wall doesnt use jetpack stamina

[shrewd saddle]

Wha

[swift sand]

yeah, if you walk up to the wall, "stick your face in it", then jetpack, you'll see that you could use that to get out of a pit/hole, or climb to higher places a lot easier

without worrying about running out of jetpack on the way up

[fresh birch]

The old face crayon strat works every time

[wary zealot]

is there a way to not pause the game when I'm on another application? Excluding multiplayer, it's kinda annoying having to sit and wait while pulse driving

[swift sand]

#nms-modding only, cant do that with vanilla

[stuck berry]

Only by using an extremely simple mod that makes one puny change https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/3308

[dreamy bear]

How does interaction with players work? I turned off multiplayer months ago during an expedition because trolls were making bases near the spawn and you literally couldn't mine anything to continue. If I turned it back on, do I only meet players playing the same game mode as me? Like normal, survival, custom etc?

[stuck berry]

If you're not in permadeath or an expedition save, you would see players of all gamemodes except those

Permadeath can only play with Permadeath, and Expedition can only play with Expedition (though those are converted to Normal upon concluding)

Other than those two exceptions, all gamemodes are matchmade with each other and may join each other, including any combination of custom options

[wary zealot]

Thanks, better than nothing

[stuck berry]

It's a must-have IMO, a strange omission as an in-game option

[wary zealot]

I see a lot of other xbox games pausing when not in focus, it definitely has to do something with cross-play compatability

Other recommended mods? Quality of life would be nice

[swift sand]

#nms-modding

[stuck berry]

Not at all, the Steam version includes the same thing

[swift sand]

it paused game when not in focus well before crossplay

[dreamy bear]

So I can meet normal survival players in anomaly?

[stuck berry]

If you are not on Permadeath (Death Consequences = Save Deleted), yes

[shell idol]

If u have a second monitor drag nms onto it and then if u press windows key and select the other application the pulse drive stays running

[restive hawk]

Regarding reaching the center of the galaxy, what occurs? Like detailed breakdown

[swift sand]

nothing happens by just reaching the regions near the center but core warping (warping to the galactic center) damages installed tech+modules on exosuit, active ship and MT. always spawns you in the next galaxy on the list. it is not the true objective of mission titled the purge

[restive hawk]

Also I wanna know how to get to purple star but from sources online, it mentions I gotta do missions to get to that point to unlock a drive that could take me to one

I have I think every drive except for purple

Worlds Part 2 Content

How to get started...

📖 Warning: Purple systems are end-game content so you must finish certain quests before you can access them.

1. Complete the Artemis Path (the main story of the game).
   -# > !faq-artemispath in #bot-spam shows the steps.
2. Atlas Eternal must show in your mission log, once Atlas Path is completed.
3. Find a Harmonic Camp and release the multi-tool seal.
   -# > !faq-interceptor in #bot-spam shows how to find them.
4. Warp to trigger: They Who Returned and complete the Autophage missions.
   -# > !faq-echoes in #bot-spam for more info.
5. Return to space, aim towards empty space, and engage Pulse Drive, disengage when you see the quest's Space Encounter.
6. New Mission: In Stellar Multitudes.

🛑 Warning: Do not leave the Atlas Station system you'll go to in the quest without visiting its space station or claiming a base computer on one of its planets.

7. Finish the mission to reveal all purple systems on the galaxy map.
   !faq-starcolor in #bot-spam for more info.

These are the known steps as of update 5.5 Worlds Pt II (<t:1738163940:D>) and are subject to change.
-# See patch notes »

Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[stuck berry]

The drive is unlocked during the mission that unlocks them, which that comes after a bunch of stuff (all primary missions, as well as the autophage intro mission "they who returned"

For a big comprehensive step by step guide, see https://nomanssky.miraheze.org/wiki/Purple_Star_Systems#How_to_Unlock

[restive hawk]

So I don’t need to run all the way off to do the center shiz, I can do this other stuff?

[swift sand]

do you have a mission titled the purge in your log?

[stuck berry]

Never had to physically reach the center, that's not what progresses The Purge

[restive hawk]

Not yet I think

Think I was last working with Artemis on… oh translating stuff

[swift sand]

you need to keep progressing primary mission with eclipsed sun icon till you have new beginnings there

[stuck berry]

Then continue that

[restive hawk]

I just don’t find it particularly fun going to the center just to end up at the beginning with cool stuff with me

[tulip dust]

@restive hawk
-# to view info below, enable embeds

Q: Do I really have to travel to the center of the galaxy?

A: Despite what its objective says, no. The Purge simply requires the player to warp 16 times in any direction, to any system.
Each warp teaches 1 portal glyph, if the player hasn't learned any yet. Please wait for the mission to acknowledge progress before warping out again.

-# ❗ Warning: After the 16th warp, mission will mark a Portal. To prevent damage to installed technologies during this next part, before going through the portal player should:
-# - Store installed exosuit tech and upgrade modules;
-# - Do the same for current ship and multi-tool, or change to a ship/multi-tool player doesn't care about.

Shared by: bkay201 Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[stuck berry]

Well, again, reaching the center of the galaxy is not required and doesn't undo any progress

[swift sand]

you could literally warp between the same 2 systems

[restive hawk]

Is mirahaze credible?

[swift sand]

yes

[restive hawk]

Why I asked earlier to confirm if anything changed

[swift sand]

you could also just type out the commands sugegsted by the gunter post that i called for earlier

[restive hawk]

More so I thought about reaching the center to wrap up a quest if it called for it, but if not then I’ll vibe and do my thing

[swift sand]

at the end of the artemis path, there's a mission that's going to say "warp to center" because it was devs assuming that players would be so far away enough from the center that 16 warps would never be enough to reach it. however some players take it literally and start trying to figure out ways to bypass warping to get to the center faster, not seeing the actual objective, sometimes even core warping when there was no need to. completing the artemis path is one of the things required for purple stars unlock, so eventually you'll have to complete that to unlock them

[restive hawk]

Do I need to have the atlas path completed alongside The Who returned?

[swift sand]

for in stellar multitudes, yes, artemis path+atlas path+they who returned

[restive hawk]

Alright

[buoyant terrace]

Is this rare? the rings are clipping through the planet

[stuck berry]

Quite uncommon, yes

rare, not really crazily

like, nowhere near as rare as colliding planets

[restive hawk]

I have two planets in one of my stars kinda close but not colliding distance. Just being close, live on paradise

[stuck berry]

Yeah, close planets are also kinda rare and interesting

makes for some really interesting views

[swift sand]

i love pulsing between them

and personally it feels like colliding planets became less rare to see because of purple systems, but perhaps just a bit of observation bias

[stuck berry]

I feel like that is a true thing

[swift sand]

right?

i dont think we're the only ones with that experience either

[stuck berry]

I've only found three sets of non-purple colliding planets ever, but like six purple system ones

[swift sand]

yeah, similar story here

[stuck berry]

maybe it's due to having more average planets to make up for not having prime planets, but without the prime planet safety distance thing

or more weirdly, all of them internally count as prime planets which may be doing something different

[tall magnet]

So how Sean Murray made pokemon and copy and pasted starfields build system i wish he would take the concept of how these creatures(https://youtu.be/vfa68R8c6ik?si=JhgehZSrQ8idk7gq) are genetically modified and apply it to no mans sky. Is that possible??

[hot birch]

We don't really have control over that

I know that other people have experienced this too, but I've interacted with all of the Boundary Failures the I've needed to to get the associated title, but it doesn't give me the title, and if I interact with a Boundary Failure it just cycles through the Iteration: #ERROR message, and then that's it. The one thing that's different this time, is that the game is letting me interact with the terminal again and get the same message line. Is there a way to fix this or should I just submit a bug report? The terminal also does say "Repeat Breach" which also didn't happen before. The second terminal I checked does not say "Repeat Breach" however.

[tall magnet]

Lol I know but its an inspiring question 🤔🤯

[wise reef]

How do you create a zone on your planetary base where you can land a corvette?

[analog scroll]

You don't

[wise reef]

I know it's possible, someone made a base in the sky where you could land on it somehow

[swift sand]

is that the game is letting me interact with the terminal again and get the same message line.
did you try restarting game after interacting with what would be the #32 entry?

iirc, there's 31

[analog scroll]

Mods, there are no landing pads at your base for a corvette. They don't exist

[hot birch]

Uh, I interacted with the 31st a few months ago and just happened to land on a planet with boundary failures and thought I'd check again to see what it would give me

So I have restarted

Same thing happened

[worn charm]

So is it recommended to use a different (throw away) starship when going into black holes ?

[swift sand]

there was something weird with this one at the time. i'll try taking a look tomorrow and let you know what i find

[analog scroll]

Black holes cause no damage

[hushed saffron]

You can choose to swap freighters after saving one

Make sure to take all the cargo and tech out first tho (not storage containers they're fine) (you can also choose to transfer the freighter base at purchase)

[prisma portal]

Can you change interior lighting of a freighter ? Not a fan of the red in the pirate

[wise reef]

With mods, yes. Normally, no. Also, same.

[gloomy jewel]

How does one find good ships to recruit to ur fleet? Is it just luck?

[crude walrus]

Pretty much. Freighters will also rank up over time, so eventually everything will be S class with good bonuses

So recruiting C class freighters for cheap will not matter long term

[gloomy jewel]

Got it, ty

[crude walrus]

Sorry I meant frigates, not freighters. Freigher is the large ship that you can customize and it never ranks up. Frigates are the little ships you send on expeditions

Freigthers = no rank up, so try to find an S class. Frigates = ranks up over time, so it doesn't matter which ones you recruit

[gloomy jewel]

I read it as frigates the first time anyways XD

[crude walrus]

Does anyone have that chart that shows the ratio of plants you need when crafting trade goods? I remember seeing it a few days ago

@acoustic bloom you can type !Faq-BeginnerTips in https://discord.com/channels/146101654981312513/372164853286305802 for some starter tips

[restive hawk]

Could you just warp back and forth at places and it count towards progress?

[acoustic bloom]

Ah ok thanks for telling me:]

[restive hawk]

Like can I just do that instead? Kinda hating this Artemis stuff with the annoying sentinels that don’t let up and warping and portalling so much

[hot birch]

I mean kinda? You can get a freighter that way

But you cannot really advance the story by just doing that

[cursive root]

i dont know if i should put this here or in base building, but does anyone know if there are any kind of filler structures i can use to make structs / foundations so the floating buildings look like they are supported?

also if its possible to adjust the walls, constantly annoyed when i set up walls on second floor, and the end wall lines (the wood slits at the last wall) transfer because the walls on the second floor are above another wall on the floor below

[pallid tiger]

can probably just add a few walls that connect to the ground to act as a pillar

one pillar under the corner of the structure should make it look supported

this topic is probably more suitable in #nms-base-building

[willow dock]

how do i obtain living corvettes

[deep pier]

make an artifical hill (not with terrain manipulator) and make a cool cave inside

[willow dock]

Genuinely 🔥 idea

[hot birch]

They do not exist (yet)

But might in the future tho it depends on what sean decides to do...

[buoyant terrace]

Are Abandoned paradise planets more common in Empty galaxys or lush?

[green nest]

like what do you do

like

whats the aim of the game

[lavish badge]

Okay thank you!

[obsidian nova]

It's a survival sandbox game

The aim is to do whatever you want

[buoyant terrace]

You can travel to different systems, Each having their own biomes and you can build a base

Anythung

[green nest]

can i play with my friends

[buoyant terrace]

Yeah

[obsidian nova]

Yes

[buoyant terrace]

Question, What the rarest type of paradise planet? Infeseted, Abandoned ETC?

[ashen kayak]

whats the point of "network restricted" when i try to port to another space station from a pirate space station when i can just port to my base and then port to the other space station anyway l

[obsidian nova]

Cause your base isn't on the network, unlike station portals

[wanton schooner]

Should I play it rn

[obsidian nova]

Yes

[wanton ridge]

What can i use the salvaged data for except base building ?

[wheat cove]

You can sell it for units or refine it for nanites

[wanton ridge]

Yeah there's nothing else to do with it, i thought i could buy plans for things in the anomaly but it seems i can't

[wet sigil]

You can, it's in the middle terminal on the left of the rotunda with all the Npcs that sell unlocks

[wanton ridge]

The one next to the guy that sells upgrades for the ship and the exosuit ? Yeah it's mainly base building and i don't see what i can do with the few technology upgrades for now

and everything else costs nanites

[cerulean cliff]

Remnants of the first spawn still exist out there, so an update where you have to help take them down and fight them would be awesome

[ivory belfry]

Planet says activated copper but I can`t find a drop on this planet. What am I missing?

[cerulean oxide]

I have no clue what these outlines are about? when I move them around the outlines disapear

[gray shoal]

Synergy. Modules work bit better when all of same type placed together

[stuck berry]

Do you see Copper deposits? If so, then go to a different planet that has Activated Copper

The tutorial missions override some dangerous planets to be less dangerous, including extreme weather and aggressive sentinel planets becoming "safe". This includes stripping activated stellar metals from the planets, and this effect is permanent but localized to your save file only

[buoyant terrace]

Whats the difference between a Abandoned planet and Abandoned paradise?

[marsh zealot]

a paradise planet with no intelligent life outside of the sentinels maybe? or possibly a relic world

[stuck berry]

This doesn't apply to ruined/infested lush worlds

"Abandoned Paradise" and "Infested Paradise" do not align with planet factors, unlike "Paradise Planet/Moon"

[stuck berry]

"Abandoned Planet" is a biome name that can be given to many different biomes, mainly dead, barren and a few ruined variants of different biomes (see !faq-biomes in #nms-commands for a full chart of them). Abandoned Paradise is a name given to ruined lush worlds, unlike Paradise Planet it doesn't align with any planet factors

[buoyant terrace]

I see

[marsh zealot]

ye i double checked "abandoned paradise" ..it's one of the reliquary / relic worlds (place you can farm the polished stone from)

[ivory belfry]

In planet description it clearly says activated copper Grouch. Can`t find it anywhere on the planet. Did scan hotspot, mineral, found cobalt?>

Rebel Star sends me to pirate station (mission)?

[analog wasp]

Mineral Hotspots are another thing used by some machines. You need to search for it with normal scanner, like normal copper etc. The blue romboid icon

[stuck berry]

Again, can you find Copper, but not Activated Copper?

[ivory belfry]

Thanks for that, Been trying and hopping around, can`t find only copper:(

Yes Grouch

[stuck berry]

Then it's due to the issue I described

go to a different planet that lists Activated Copper

[ivory belfry]

Sorry scroll back up to see that?

[stuck berry]

This #nms-questions message

That planet was overridden to be easier for you (not have extreme storms and activated stellar metal) but the resource list text wasn't corrected. Basically pretend that it lists Copper

[ivory belfry]

Oh okee, tyvm will go to diff planet. Maybe Rebel Star mission is go to pirate station? If so, can get repair kits there I`m thinkin?

[stuck berry]

Under a Rebel star is indeed the mission that introduces you to Outlaw Systems

[ivory belfry]

Gotcha about overwritten Thankee kindly

Cool, I`m in like Flynn:) TYVM again

[ashen kayak]

....and so i started an upgrade to a settlement building... and it locked me in the building

thankfully the autosave had saved my position outside, false alarm

[stuck berry]

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

Thank you

[buoyant terrace]

What happens if you are doing a dreadnaught freighter battle with a friend, then you defeat the dreadnaught and bored it, Then your friend destroys the dreadnaught with you inside??

[jagged pine]

guys, what does three bullet like icons mean on the system within galaxy map or they look like three small towers

[pallid tiger]

Your frigate expedition is there

[jagged pine]

oooh, ty 🫂

[steel valley]

There’s only one way to find out

[dreamy patio]

Is there a way to skip game introduction? I mean everytime I start a new game there is that tutorial, and I have to play around 2 hours to finaly get to Anomaly and start the proper sandbox...

[stuck berry]

In the custom save creation options, there is an option to disable/skip the tutorial. This can only be disabled before the save is created

[swift sand]

which basically starts you at the end of awakenings, a few minutes away from anomaly access

[dreamy patio]

Nice thanks

[ancient crypt]

I have accidentally synced my save data with a 3 year old save file. I’m on PlayStation and wondering if there is anyway to get my progress back.

[cold storm]

So I crafted all of the Atlas seed blue prints that I have but it won't show the path to the next station. I did talk to Polo and still didn't work.

[restive hawk]

I made the atlas star

Is the atlas path done now?

[swift sand]

so you still have atlas path mission in your log?

[swift sand]

star seed? yeah, now you should have atlas eternal in mission log, which cant be cleared/it's endless, and signals atlas path completion

[cold storm]

Yes

[restive hawk]

So it’s wrapped up then. Just random “pop in every so often” kind of thing?

[swift sand]

i dont think so, no

[swift sand]

are you in the euclid galaxy atm? (galaxy map, top left below minimap)

[swift sand]

atlas eternal is an easy way to find more atlas stations, allowing us to, most notably imo, continue learning atlas words if we're not maxed out yet.

[cold storm]

I'm not actually. I finished the Artemis quest line.

[swift sand]

seems that you're being affected by a current bug (do recommend raising a bug report when you get a bit of spare time); return to euclid, do you see atlas stations now?

[restive hawk]

Onto the portal… stupid Artemis

[swift sand]

if this is the purge mission already, remember to store exosuit tech and modules, and swap to a ship and mt you dont care about, just in case

[cold storm]

So its a bug... I figured that was the case. I have some things to do first but yes I will warp back to Euclid.

Plus I've been neglecting on the settlement so I should get back there lol

[keen jay]

Is there a way to farm S class freighters with saving? cuz as soon as i leavining my ship after landing to scan its making a saving point (not auto save), so im curious abt it

[swift sand]

using a corvette, right?

[keen jay]

ig so

but the same with normal

[swift sand]

see <#nms-questions message>

[vagrant echo]

Yeah i know this

[swift sand]

by design, with non corvettes, exiting ship on a freighter we dont own never updates restore point save slot

has been this way for ages, only corvettes changed the game up a bit

[vagrant echo]

There is a way, you just need to do it with a normal starship. Not a corvette. I had the same problem. When you leave your corvette it makes a restore point which it doesnt do with a starship

So try it with a starship instead of a corvette

[swift sand]

no, you can still do it with a corvette, but it's not done the same way

see the link i shared earlier

[keen jay]

i just remember when i was getting freighters with small ships i getting save points too

[restive hawk]

I refused that big machine

[swift sand]

not a problem, still completed main storyline (new beginnings should be in your log now), didnt get locked out of anything

[keen jay]

so if i messed up am i have to wait 3 h again or 5 warps is enough

[swift sand]

autosave is one thing, restore point is another - and restore point yeah, by design, that's impossible.

[vagrant echo]

both

3h and 5 warps

[swift sand]

the cooldown to trigger the next rescue battle event is 3h of unpaused gameplay+5 ship warps since last battle - but there are some t3 conflict and some outlaw systems out there that always trigger the pirate freighter battle event on every ship warp in, as long as you've met the reqs to spawn pirate freighter

[pliant star]

Is updated out

[cold storm]

I sent a bug report.

[swift sand]

only on PS

[vagrant echo]

xD didnt even know this

[swift sand]

people have posted lots of coordinates to systems like these 🙂

[vagrant echo]

what do yall think the new update is gonna be

[pliant star]

Ws I'm on ps 😝😝

[keen jay]

ye abt pirate ik but i tried to get the one like lined idk its name on english

[pliant star]

I can dm u if u want

[vagrant echo]

yeah sure why not

[pliant star]

I'm hopping on soon

[swift sand]

topic better suited for main chat i guess, but careful with spoilers

[vagrant echo]

alright thank you

[pliant star]

Sorry that's why I will dm him the upd

[swift sand]

one of these? you can still get one of them through the pirate freighter event

[keen jay]

kk thanks

[floral ledge]

How see update log

[swift sand]

will be posted on official website, but it's not been posted yet - stay tuned to #nms-announcements

[floral ledge]

What's the website

[pliant star]

If ur not on ps u can't but I'll dm you in a bit (if It shows me when i log on)

[restive hawk]

Now I can do the REAL thing I want. The stuff blocking me from them purple spheres

[swift sand]

https://www.nomanssky.com, news or release log

[restive hawk]

Hated the Artemis mission strand AND the atlas path, so much warping, I rather not all the time

[swift sand]

purple star systems quest right? new beginnings and atlas eternal in the log, up next would be they who returned, then in stellar multitudes - not far now

hey FF :))

Is this an ARG?

[vernal nacelle]

Wdym

[wheat cove]

There is an ARG currently in progress, discussion for it is in #project-skyscraper . If you're interesting in working on it, check the pins in that channel.

(this is currently separate from any NMS in-game activity)

[cyan void]

I think I might have scammed myself out of 3.000 quicksilver… I wanted the cool Gek mask but I can’t find it in the appearance modifier. Now either I’m blind or I never got it

[signal cedar]

It's for Anomaly race if memory serves right

Not for the Gek

[cyan void]

Oh wait so it’s a mask u put on when u race? 😭

I thought it was a cool misc accessoire

[signal cedar]

Different races presets have access to different helmets

[cyan void]

Luckily I can reload my restore point so I still have the quicksilver 😁

[cyan void]

I found out, it’s a mask only for the Anomaly race. For some reason I still have it after reloading a save file and keeping my quicksilver

Have I found a glitch? 🤑

[signal cedar]

No that's normal

[cyan void]

So I keep keep it or it dissapears when I leave the anomaly?

[rough ridge]

Do we know when the new update is supposed to drop?

[signal cedar]

Your currencies including QS are stored in your save file

Your special unlocks like QS purchases or expedition rewards are stored in account data file

You reload the save to previous state, but not the account data

[cyan void]

So I keep keep it?! 🫪

[signal cedar]

Yeah if you want

[cyan void]

Can I repeat this process with the capes too?

[signal cedar]

It's already rolling out, PS got it, other platforms to follow soon

[rough ridge]

No big announcement or trailer?

[signal cedar]

There will be, once HG decides the time is right

[jagged pine]

guys, what is the endgame here?

[viral river]

whatever you want it to be?

designing corvettes
building outposts
finding a perfect planet (according to what u want)
get all fish
...

[wheat cove]

Basically it's a sandbox environment. Explore, build, farm resources, hunt for cool planets/ships/tools to share.

There is not a traditional endgame activity, it's freeform play.

[fading oar]

Can I post the photoshopped (ai-shopped) shot to the #nms-photomode-gallery ?

Asked chatgpt to apply a filter over the screenshot.

Original image > result. Not sure is it art already, or still ok.

[river canyon]

No AI in #nms-photomode-gallery - you can use #960001745247928361 for any AI creations

[fading oar]

Was not sure if such edit is accounted as "full AI slop", too. Thank you!

Anyway that was just a dumb experiment.

[potent coral]

Is the latest expedition really not available on switch 1?

[analog scroll]

There are no patch notes for 6.40 yet, and currently only PS has it. We don't know what is there yet

[potent coral]

Okay, but first has there even been an expedition (in the time NMS as been on switch 1) Tjat it hasn’t been included in?

[analog scroll]

Switch 1 has gotten every expedition except the first run of the corvette expedition

[mental kite]

how do I change multitool

[analog scroll]

Quick Menu > Utilities

[ashen plover]

How do I access the new thingy

[analog scroll]

Unless you're on Playstation, you wait. We only have notification that PS has the update, not even any patch notes

[ashen plover]

I am on playstation

[analog scroll]

Then update your game and enjoy

[ashen plover]

But nothing's different

Tried pulsing around too

[analog scroll]

We don't have any patch notes yet. We don't know what the update is all about yet

[ashen plover]

Ok well how do I access the cargo thingy we had before this cause I aint done it either in my main save

[analog scroll]

What cargo thing?

[ashen plover]

Was it in the expedition only? The one where you put goofy tires or legs on your big truck thingy and hauled sruff

Stuff

[analog scroll]

Build the colossus

[ashen plover]

I have one

[analog scroll]

Start salvaging items to earn the parts you can unlock. Some were exclusive to an expedition

Look for salvageable scrap planets, get the gravity gun installed on your multi tool, have fun

[wheat cove]

You need the gravitino multitool tech, you can unlock it on the anomaly or by interacting with a waste processing plant on a salvageable scrap olanet

[ashen plover]

Okie I'll look into that at some point

Now I know where to look

[round wedge]

Hi, there are any planet with a lot of players and base?

[analog scroll]

I'm sure there are several. #1418605454300549120 #nmscord-hub and reddit would be places where you can find them

[round wedge]

thx!

[steep nexus]

The trailer is out 🐝 🐝

[analog scroll]

So are the patch notes https://www.nomanssky.com/swarm-update/

[pastel verge]

We're getting an expedition with this update, right?

surely

[analog scroll]

Read the patch notes. This update is almost entirely expedition focused

[pastel verge]

pog

[polar shard]

How long do expeditions usually take?

[earnest swallow]

why cant find a paradise planet in a 3star economy galaxy at all

been to 8 so far

[analog scroll]

This one will last 8 weeks after it starts. How long it takes you to complete it will depend on you

[earnest swallow]

also how do i take part in expeditions

[analog scroll]

Paradise is only 1 subset of Lush planets. Finding a specific planet type in a specific economy will take time

[robust mulch]

you guys know when the expedition ends?

[analog scroll]

8 weeks after it starts, based on the patch notes

Expedition Info

Game mode explained:

Expeditions are an alternate time-limited, season-like game mode with a set of challenges rewarding exclusive items that can be claimed in any and all of your saves, in any game mode account-wide.

To get past expedition rewards, you must wait for possible future expedition re-runs (see past expeditions) or possible future Twitch Drops campaigns featuring old expedition rewards (see past campaigns). You may also obtain certain rewards via other unconventional means, including ship trading or using a "service bot" in the Creative Hub Discord. Additionally, PC players ( ) can get past rewards via save editing or #nms-modding.

also if im playing offline, can some othwe player jump to the system im in

[swift sand]

even if they do, you wouldnt see each other if at least one of you has multiplayer disabled in save options/network settings

[analog scroll]

Yes, but you won't see them if you have multiplayer disabled

[earnest swallow]

like i have it enabled

but what if im offline

then can they see me or i them

[analog scroll]

If you have multiplayer enabled, and you're on a system with multiplayer capabilities, you're online all the time

[swift sand]

define offline?

[analog scroll]

There is no true single player mode unless you start the game offline in Steam or do not have a multiplayer subscription on console

[jagged pine]

so no update for steam?

[analog scroll]

Restarting Steam might pull it for you, it ddid not for me but it did for others

[swift sand]

i got the updated season cache json file no - i didn't - i just looked at it and - it says exp21 - my connection to ODS is stable, but still not available to me

[jagged pine]

weird

[prime field]

picking in on this if you build stuff on a planet. other people can find it? lets say someone does a city project?

[jagged pine]

yeah still no for me even after reloading steam

[cold storm]

Okay I confirmed it's the bug that's causing the atlas path issue.

[lunar drift]

Has the expedition started???

[charred haven]

Unlikely to happen naturally outside of player hubs and galaxy centers. But yes they can.

[prime field]

i am rather new so so idk . But can you have your own crew for a base or only pets. I saw that you can have your own space crew

[earnest swallow]

without wifi

[atomic fractal]

So I saw the trailer and didn't understand what i see. We have some things to blow in the space now?

What's new?

[fair sparrow]

When will the update be reflected on Steam? Says its out now, but I’m not getting an update for the game.

[charred haven]

You can have npcs in any base - and in certain circumstances you can build on top of structures so that you can have ais walking around, i believe

[swift sand]

if you dont have an internet connection at all, having multiplayer enabled or disabled in network settings in game doesn't matter - not having a connection at all will also prevent your game from uploading/downloading discoveries/bases/etc to the game's servers, including other player's

[swift sand]

https://www.nomanssky.com/swarm-update/ scroll down a bit

[swift sand]

we dont know, this is unusual

[charred haven]

It's usually steam first right? and then playstation

[analog scroll]

Typically

[swift sand]

either first or at the same time, yeah

[fair sparrow]

Thought it was just me. Thanks for validating.

[open meteor]

When will the game be updated?

[analog scroll]

Soon

[open meteor]

ok

[charred haven]

We don't know for sure

[open meteor]

what is even the update about

like

it looks like sentinels update

but idk

[analog scroll]

Patch notes are available #nms-announcements

[hallow dagger]

Are expeditions single player or can you do they co op?

[open meteor]

oh thanks

[bronze dune]

When is the new expedition starting ??

[analog scroll]

Either

[analog scroll]

Soon

[bronze dune]

today ?

[analog scroll]

Based on reports in #nms-expedition it's begun already on playstation, so probably

Patch notes just say "Soon", though

[celest lynx]

Is NMS still pretty much unplayable on the PS4?

[celest lynx]

They are extremely short

[analog scroll]

Still very much supported

[fossil vine]

also as a stopgap, I changed my fps from 60 to 85, so that the flickering lines are now non-flickering (but still there)

[celest lynx]

Cool, my friend quit after Worlds because the game became a slideshow and tried again late last year and it was still super laggy and crashed a lot

anyone get the update on steam?

After finishing an expedition on a save, can I get the rewards on my main save? If I can, how?

[charred haven]

Can I use that command?

[celest lynx]

Go to the rewards vendor in the nexus

[charred haven]

yes, go to the terminal on the space anomaly and end the expedition

[boreal wolf]

Thanks

[celest lynx]

you can also bring in a limited number of items from your main save to the expedition if you start the expedition from the terminal on you main save

[charred haven]

Did not know that existed! Thanks!

[celest lynx]

usually helpful to bring a portable refiner and some basic elements like oxygen and sodium, but sometimes other items are helpful depending on the expedition objectives. I usually start from scratch unless I'm speedrunning one for the rewards right at the end.

[swift sand]

give it a few hours/a day or two, and we'll have some pins up in #nms-expedition with tips

[pastel light]

Ok so what’s the gist of the expedition

[analog scroll]

It's in the patch notes

Kill the swarm, save the world

[pastel light]

Mark, this is good news

[boreal wolf]

Can you play expeditions without ps+ (if on ps)

[tiny mulch]

Guys my friend is having a problem for a while, his fps drops to like 15 and stays there until he reopen the game, but it still drop again after like 15 min.

How to solve this?

[celest lynx]

Community is split into teams, the teams race to kill the swarm and rebuild their "core" first one to do it wins, you get special cosmetics based on your team

[analog scroll]

If your friend is alt-tabbing, they need to not do that. One thing might be to delete game install folder\Binaries\SETTINGS\TKGRAPHICSSETTINGS.MXML then start the game and do not touch the graphics settings. That could help

[fading venture]

Not on Steam yet? Only playstation?

[tawny ledge]

Correct

[tiny mulch]

Thanks Ill tell him

[vagrant quartz]

Same. Just put on my pc. No update for Steam yet.

[analog scroll]

There will be an announcement in #nms-news-ticker when it comes out

[tender fox]

Not on xbox either 😔

[jagged pine]

btw, how to change your multitools from your collection?

[vagrant quartz]

Worst case scenario is that we'll get it tomorrow. It has happened before with PlayStation I think.

[tender fox]

The xeno update was like 4 days late

[jagged pine]

I can't find that collection and UI menu to pull a needed multitool

[vagrant quartz]

Oof

[summer wraith]

Tyndaaalllllll
when's the expedition??

[stiff gyro]

Can I ask a question about a certain part of phase 2 of the expedition

[swift sand]

only some of us have been able to start it yet. perhaps best to ask over in #nms-expedition

[stiff gyro]

Ok thanks

[steel ginkgo]

is there a way to skip the scan cutscenes

[swift sand]

like when you use a chart?

iirc you should be able to open quick menu to change camera perspective and that skips it - or just pop the chart while inside your ship

[swift sand]

only out on ps atm, but should have started today

[solar vortex]

can someone maybe help trying to play with a friend he is on ps 5 and im on steam we get allways a versio mismatch he has an higher version as me but steam has no updates for nms

[swift sand]

steam is waiting for latest patch

[solar vortex]

nvm i think i just read it lmao

[swift sand]

unusual for steam build to be behind, but it can happen

[steel ginkgo]

ic

[solar vortex]

ofc at the time i want to play once with a friend lmao

[fresh ivy]

how long do us steam players need to wait until the patch drops on steam?

[swift sand]

we dont know, we're all just players here

and this is unusual, for steam to be behind

[fresh ivy]

sad :(

[swift sand]

something probably happened

[fresh ivy]

i'm super eager to do the expedition

probs

[swift sand]

yeah, we just need to be patient for a bit i'm sure

[autumn talon]

how do i turn pure ferrite into normal ferrite

[swift sand]

<:info:850810445577453658> Getting Ferrite Dust and Carbon stacks fast using a ship

A fast and safe way to get lots of Ferrite Dust and Carbon stacks (among other things), is to shoot minerals/flora with your ship. 2-3 minutes of doing this, and the player can obtain lots of these basic materials without much effort.

Find a planet with lots of minerals and/or flora, land and scan flora and rocks around you for a bit. Then take flight, and just fly low and slow, letting terrain objects generate ahead of you, and shooting them. An upgraded ship weapon works best, as it will deal more damage, destroying things quicker.

Suggested ship weapon techs include Positron Ejector and Infra-Knife.
