how many bases can you have?

[analog scroll]

400

[spark lichen]

how can i give friends my modded ships and tools ?

eg:

[shell ridge]

What do I have to do to get these Exotic Parts to show as known in my Catalogue of Building Parts? (I have found, discovered, harvested, and built all of them.)

[analog scroll]

You can't give anyone a freighter or multi tool

[spark lichen]

damn

what about a normal ship

[analog scroll]

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

[spark lichen]

alr thanks bro

[stuck berry]

We can't transfer corvettes to other players, and transferring non-corvette non-fabricated starships via the "ship trade glitch" #nms-legacy-ships message wipes all technology, cargo and the class is rerolled for ships that aren't exotic/living

the supercharged slot layout is also wiped, changing to what the seed defines based on it's class

the only unique aspect of a save edited ship that can be transferred is the "cockpit ships" that are just a cockpit, which includes the "ball" version of royal exotic ships

[spark lichen]

appreciate it bro

[normal hemlock]

why is this happening? i cannot finish my expidition with this happening

also relogging and closing the game doesnt help\

[analog scroll]

Running any mods?

[normal hemlock]

nope im completly vnilla

[analog scroll]

Verify files, perhaps reinstall graphics drivers, clear cache

[normal hemlock]

i just restarted entire pc ill see if that helps

[pastel cosmos]

Will not help, this is a issue as of right now

[stuck berry]

Definitely not for all players, I'm not experiencing it currently

It resembles issues related to shader cache/cache stuff or outdated mods for the latter issue

[swift sand]

i'm seeing other players in #nms-expedition reporting this

[swift sand]

it seems like warping to a diff system/rstarting game fixed it for the other player

[normal hemlock]

i didnt try warping, ill see if that helps if all the other things ive just done doesnt fix it. thanks though

[tight nimbus]

Im going to a skull on a planet but theres nrhf there

[spark lichen]

anyone got eggs for sale

[normal hemlock]

that did not fix it XD

[swift sand]

try to verify game file integrity? disable multiplayer?

[normal hemlock]

done and done haha

[analog scroll]

#nms-lfg-or-trades

[normal hemlock]

turning multi[player BACK ON helped hahaha

i had it off originally, thank for the help @swift sand

[tight nimbus]

Im going to a skull on a planet but theres nrhf there smth with rebel or

[swift sand]

hehe 🙂 nice, thanks for the feedback

[copper oar]

Anyone else have their sentinel walkers stuck on the ground and can't fight them?

[normal hemlock]

it must be becuase of the nature of the expedition, being a community competition and all

[swift sand]

interesting, i was having issues connecting to the server just now, and that hologram there was totally missing 😄

[swift sand]

known issue yeah, sometimes you can dig them out, sometimes moving away for a bit and back again works

[tight nimbus]

Hi i need ur help again, theres this mission with rebel and i we t to the skull on a planet but theres nthg there

[restive hawk]

1. Good sources of nanites
   A: what sources
2. Good selling goods for creds
   A: top ones or ideal ones

[copper oar]

Can the brains be bought?

[crude walrus]

I literally just built a nanite farm last night, you want some runaway mold to refine for nanites?

[swift sand]

playing solo or with friends? be solo. when you get on the marked planet, game should want you to use target sweep visor mode to find the building/POI you're to interact with iirc

[analog scroll]

You need to use target sweep mode

[swift sand]

no, but they can be obtained from other sourcse, see gunter post below:

There's multiple Walker Brain sources:

• Destroy Sentinel Walker: interact with its head first, then destroy it. see example »
• Suspicious Packets (Goods), that can be purchased from any outlaw station contraband agent NPC.
• As a mission reward.

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

Yeah, I suppose that would be good, would I meet you in the anomaly?

[tight nimbus]

Location service unavailable

[crude walrus]

Let me get a few stacks of mold first, give me a few minutes then we can meet at the anomaly

[swift sand]

can you post a screenshot of the game with the mission tooltip lower right of the screen showing? remember that you can spam press H or dpad left to cycle through them if needed.

@crude walrus @restive hawk adding each other's friend codes and one of you joining the other's running session would be preferable; there's no guarantees you'd end up in the same anomaly session. in game chat, please take it to dms

⚠️ No Man's Sky - Doing Quests in a group

Playing in a group can cause one or more players to experience issues or bugs when progressing quests, such as the main Storyline. Some of these issues are listed below.

• Waypoints not appearing on the HUD;
• Waypoints moving or jumping planets when you get close;
• Destinations being thousands of lightyears away;
• Quest destinations fail to provide the correct dialogs for the current stage;
• Primary ship getting accidentally reskinned to a different ship;
• Getting trapped on the other side of a portal;
• Getting trapped in a star system without access to both an hyperdrive or a teleporter/Space Station.

Some of the above issues can be difficult or even impossible to fix with just in game steps. Already having access to the Space Anomaly can help in some cases, but it's generally best to ignore quest progression when playing in a group.

📖 Did you know? Also known as The Artemis Path, the main Storyline was implemented before Multiplayer came to be a thing. It is intended to be run solo.

There will be an update in #nms-news-ticker when it is out

[raw kestrel]

So its not put yet

Out

[normal hemlock]

BRotha, got to give u a pat on the back, awnsering peoples questions is a full time job here XD

[crude walrus]

Does anyone know I cant gain reputation with the autophage on my expedition save?

[abstract lion]

it has been forever, how do i find a dissonance camp?

[swift sand]

because no they who returned completion i would assume again

[crude walrus]

Probably something to do with the in stellar multitudes quest

ahh trhat makes sense

[analog scroll]

A harmonic camp or an autophage camp?

[earnest swallow]

How do I join the expedition, just got the mac update

[analog scroll]

Either through a new save or through the terminal on the Anomaly

[earnest swallow]

Okk

[abstract lion]

what's the difference XD

[crude walrus]

So does this mean the expedition saves are totally unable to get the autophage exosuit mods?

[swift sand]

yeah, no way to get rebuilt aka autophage exosuit upgrade modules in exp22

[analog scroll]

One is used to find sentinel ships, the other is used to do Autophage missions and purchase items from them, but is only available after they're unlocked

[swift sand]

@crude walrus but you could get sentinel ones, which have basically the same stats

[abstract lion]

uhhh i don't have voice of the machine done on this save and was more looking for a camp to put down a base at, so i guess harmonic for now

[analog scroll]

Follow the Harmonic Camp link in !faq-interceptor in #nms-commands

[abstract lion]

i see, thank you

[fresh birch]

Do pirate systems have trade terminals on the planets? Would solar sail ships appear more often if there are?

Trying to find ships to salvage for refabrication

[tender bramble]

did xbox not get the update?

[swift sand]

trade outposts? yeah. frequency of solar sail spawning on them though would be the same

[swift sand]

not yet

[fresh birch]

Even though the wiki says they show more in pirate systems?

Or is that just more bologna someone added

[swift sand]

well, i was comparing to ship spawns in the station of an outlaw system

compared to non outlaw systems, any location in them, yeah, solar sails are far more common in outlaw systems

[normal hemlock]

wait does everyone have to wait until the countermeasures step is complete before we can finish the expedition?

[fresh birch]

Okay nice. Just got tired of loading in and out of a station

[spark lichen]

check dm @restive hawk

[fresh birch]

Thanks

[abstract lion]

man this planet was a bust, radiation storms are not base friendly lol

[swift sand]

nah, it's true. in outlaw, there's an 10% chance for any non-exotic/sentinel/living ship type and an 85% chance any shuttle to be replaced by a solar. in non outlaw, there's only a 10% chance for a shuttle to be converted to solar.

[normal hemlock]

Is this the case @swift sand

[swift sand]

yeah

[normal hemlock]

Ohhh I thought I was bugging out again lmao

[spark lichen]

im looking for any types of eggs

i have a lot of resources and currency

dm for pic

[fresh birch]

Oh, not a question but might help someone else.

You know how if your corvette is too close to your base then the build menu will only show corvette parts? Well, if you duplicate a normal base part and exit out of the menu (don’t have to place anything) then the next time you open the menu will be the normal build menu.

[analog scroll]

Keep that to the appropriate channel and you might get better responses #nms-lfg-or-trades

[spark lichen]

i did

[agile needle]

Whats the best way to get starship upgrades?

Just warping to different stations?

[analog scroll]

This channel is for questions related to gameplay

[hazy mulch]

Get lots of nanites; I usually go to Pirate system, buy all the tech modules, extract it, and sell it at the same stations to vendors. And repeat.

[agile needle]

I have plenty of nanites lol, but thanks

[spark lichen]

yea

[agile needle]

Just wondering if there was a better way than just warping around

[hazy mulch]

Ah not the class upgrades lol but ya, warping around usually.

[agile needle]

Alright thanks

[hushed saffron]

How do all the creature traits (trust, independence, aggression, etc.) affect them in combat again? I know some make them more likely to do moves on their own, etc, but not specifics.

[swift sand]

nice 🙂 iirc there's also a button to switch from one base to the other. i'd suggest caution when building a base with a corvette nearby, or a corvette base with a base nearby. the image i'm attaching is from a blender scene, to which i imported the corvette ship of another player. the teal arrow shows where the actual ship is, but you can see that there's base parts being counted as parts of the corvette - and this ofc is gonna cause the "not all modules connected" when you would try editing that specific corvette.

[fresh birch]

Thanks for the extra info. Thankfully I’ve never run into that but I’ll have to keep it in mind. I just got tired of having to move my ship lol

[swift mesa]

Is xbox the last one getting the update or there's still some other platform left?

[fresh birch]

Switch is still left

[analog scroll]

Switch

[swift mesa]

So switch then xbox?

[fresh birch]

Probably Xbox first

Nintendo is notoriously slow

[swift sand]

personality traits are about bonus moves in battle. iirc:

• helpfulness (+strength) / playfulness (+evasion)
• gentleness (-enemy strength) / aggression (damage over time to enemy)
• independence (-enemy accuracy) / devotion (heal)

[swift mesa]

Aight

[hushed saffron]

Thanks!

Does trust do anything in combat

[swift sand]

sorry, unaware of that one

[hushed saffron]

No worries

[spark lichen]

i got some stuff, looking for eggs if anyone needs any resources?

also got billions of currency in those starship ai things

[jade flower]

Is there a new expedition?

How do i do that

Never did one befoee

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.

[tall cape]

i have my main save on xbox but it was off game pass so i cant access it anymore. i just got nms on steam and want to transfer my main save onto it, and ive activated cross save on both platforms but havent uploaded the main save to the cloud. am i not able to somewhere else or am i just screwed

[abstract lion]

is my third person camera meant to be this when piloting a corvette

[agile needle]

ah alright

[spark lichen]

ok

[agile needle]

Probably should've read lol

[analog scroll]

If you had the game on GamePass, you will have to get GamePass again to access the save to upload it

#nms-expedition will have tips, but generally I've seen it's not really necessary

[upper hawk]

Is this new update an expedition or a gameplay update?

[analog scroll]

Both, mostly expedition focused. Update notes are found in #nms-announcements

[swift sand]

there's a couple pinned posts in #nms-expedition that you probably want to read <#nms-expedition message>, and <#nms-expedition message> (this last one, so basically you can go phase by phase and see what rewards you'll get for each milestone - for example, you dont need to bring hazmat gauntlet into exp22 because it's already a reward in phase 1

[twin escarp]

Is update out on xbox yet? No updates showing for me

Ty

[jade flower]

What exactly is an expedition

And why do people make new saves for it

[swift sand]

<#nms-commands message>

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.

[jade flower]

I should read dang

[swift sand]

till exp12, we always had to make a new save. it didnt matter: the rewards are unlocked account wide. having some separation between saves, being able to just dump an expedition save and start a new one, and just simply having a new save, that's something that many still do

starting from existing save though, allows some nice features - though the devs are free to disable them sometimes. e.g. in exp22, we cant copy ships in.

[fossil crow]

same but i also have it on PC and there it works

[jade flower]

Okk

Ive started a new expedition

Lessgo

[wary dawn]

At least we can still claim old rewards

[upper hawk]

What happens if we die in expeditions? Im tempted to just use my current ships to fight the swarmers instead of creating a new save and being bare bones

[analog scroll]

You can't transfer a ship into this expedition

[lunar drift]

Dupe

[wind kettle]

How

[lunar drift]

Place a portable refeiner then place the item you want to duplicate inside the refeiner after that place another refeiner inside the existing refeiner

[wind kettle]

K

[lunar drift]

If you're having problems you can search on youtube

[wind kettle]

Thanks!

[lunar drift]

You can also just change the difficulty if you don't want to go through the trouble of duplicating

To make everything very cheap or even free

[lunar drift]

If you want to do it legit then go to dissonant systems and grind for a dissonant starship then sell at space station for about 7 million

[ember helm]

you should have suggested that from the start

when people ask for help they usually aren't asking because they want to be told to just simply cheat

[lunar drift]

If you want to make billions then do this step then after you get starship ai valves you can dupe

[wind kettle]

What are good weapons for the sentinels waves to unlock the ship

[lunar drift]

It's not cheating and I gave them other options like dissonant ship scrapping

[lunar drift]

??

[ember helm]

duplicating is absolutely cheating bro

you might not get punished for it but it's literally Cheating In Items

[lunar drift]

It's a glitch not cheat

[wind kettle]

Isn’t there a lot of sentinels that hang around the crashed ship?

[ember helm]

it's a cheat

you are using a glitch to cheat

lmao

[lunar drift]

No to get sentinel ship you need to get echo locator

Search on YouTube

[lunar drift]

Okay but I still gave other options

[ember helm]

after the cheating option

[lunar drift]

Like sentinel ship scrapping

[ember helm]

but regardless i have better things to do than talk to someone who doesn't know what cheating is so bye

[lunar drift]

It doesn't matter which comes first I gave the best options for each play style

How do you know they don't want to dupe?

[ember helm]

leave me the fuck alone

i am done with this conversation

[lunar drift]

You started

[ember helm]

thank you

[lunar drift]

[ember helm]

i didn't start anything

Yes you did

[ember helm]

i pointed out that mentioning cheating first is a dumb idea you're the one who's getting mad

[shell ridge]

That's like, your opinion man.

don't care

I gave plenty of options bro

Can you build a base, make a teleporter and go to the space station?

[strong ember]

Maybe might take longer than usual tho

[hushed saffron]

Assuming you just started the game, progress the story missions and you will unlock it quickly

[signal cedar]

You unlock the access to Space Anomaly after you progress the tutorial a bit and warp to a new system

On expeditions it can be different

[stuck berry]

Also, press H to make it show again when it hides due to it not being relevant currently

[exotic zenith]

Ok, and I either need to find a portal or use an editor to go to these, right?

[stuck berry]

Yes, use a Portal #nms-commands message in Euclid Galaxy with the 16 Portal Glyphs unlocked #nms-commands message, or use a save editor that easily supports coordinate repositioning https://github.com/vectorcmdr/NMSE

[latent ivy]

Thank you. I had it enabled but I'm used to seeing it on all the time if I remember right. I'll keep checking it again. I was on a planet and got notification that my thermal was failing but nothing was on the screen.

[exotic zenith]

And I should be able to make/load changes while i'm paused? Or perhaps even cursor hovered over the save, even though doing so would show the incorrect time on the save at first?

[stuck berry]

Well press H or left on D-Pad to make it reappear when you need to know any info, and also cycle the mission hint in the lower right if multiple or none are showing

[stuck berry]

You can make these changes whenever, just load the correct save slot after saving the changes if you're in your save. If you're out of your save, it auto-loads the most recent one but that's the default the editor chooses to modify too

[fresh birch]

How in the world do I get rid of a corvette

I started a new one to play around but I can’t figure out how to get rid of it entirely

[wary dawn]

Sell it?

[fresh birch]

The ship salvager doesn’t take corvettes

[stuck berry]

Exchange it for another lifeform's starship

[fresh birch]

I guess I could pawn it off on a NPC-yeah

[stuck berry]

at a space station or trade outpost

[wary dawn]

You can literally just trade it with any npc lmao

And if you don't wanna keep that ship, scrap it

[fresh birch]

It’s so funny, I needed all the parts so it’s a lil walkway, one engine, one landing gear, a lift, and a thruster. Looks like a lil beetle

[fading oar]

[wary dawn]

Also yes

[analog scroll]

Right now

[fresh birch]

@wary dawn @stuck berry Thank you for the help. Pawned the problem corvette onto an unsuspecting korvax.

[stuck berry]

PC (Steam/GoG) players can indeed play with PS4 and PS5 players

[inland crow]

Can someone help me with something

I died but I can’t leave the planet now

Because I don’t have silver

What should I do

[exotic zenith]

You can only get to another galaxy via the core, having a base in another galaxy with a teleporter, or save editing, correct?

[inland crow]

Also I have this poppy up but no quest for it

[fresh birch]

Look for that icon on your compass. That’s your grave with all your stuff

[inland crow]

Yes

[gray lodge]

How do I get my ships stats like this guys, or are these modded ships. They said they were delivered to the person. I just want to know if these stats are possible in the game

[inland crow]

I’ve looked around but it isn’t there

[fresh birch]

Not in vanilla

You either need someone to trade you a modded ship or mod it yourself

[fresh birch]

Even on the scanner?

[gray lodge]

Ok no I don't want a modded ship

[inland crow]

Yes

But I died in my ship

And the ship inventory is gone

[gray lodge]

It's at the grave where you died

[tight nimbus]

How to get crazy ships like everyone else

[fresh birch]

It might be floating somewhere

[inland crow]

I can’t find that

[fresh birch]

Instead of on the surface

[gray lodge]

Same thing happened to me. Stumbled across it one day lol. I just found more stuff

@fresh birch so are the 100k multi tools modded too

[inland crow]

I’ve looked upwards and all around it isn’t appearing

[fresh birch]

Can’t say with 100% certainty but I sure as shit can’t get my damage that high nor figure out how to do so lol

[gray lodge]

Same highest I've gotten is like 80k

[fresh birch]

I just knew those ships were modded cause others said so when the guy posted them

[gray lodge]

Oh I should have read up farther lol

[fresh birch]

Might just need to find more stuff and hope you stumble upon it in the future

Sucks but it’s like Minecraft, can always find more

[inland crow]

Where do I find silver on a planet?

[gray lodge]

If you're close to them by where you died and you use your scanner to scan for resources you'll find them and you can also use your visor

[fresh birch]

Usually underground, same place you would find cobalt

[inland crow]

Ok

[fresh birch]

Or in resource deposits (the blue diamond icons) if the planet lists that in the resources on the discovery page

[gray lodge]

That scan visor is your best tool it'll show you where everything's at

[inland crow]

I have silver but now there’s an issue of starbulbs

[spark lichen]

is there a way for me to transfer nanites and quicksilver to other people ?

[analog scroll]

Redeem the first milestone in phase 1 and install the hazmat gauntlets, then look around the starting planet

[inland crow]

I’m at the part to investigate the crashed swarmer

And I was shot down by absolutely nothing and the game isn’t showing me where I died to regain my lost starship stuff

And now I need to remake all the echos

But I can’t find starbulbs this planet I think

So I’m stuck

9 hours away from the site

And not a single star bulb in sight

[fresh birch]

Do you have multiplayer and PvP on? Maybe another player shot you down

[tight nimbus]

How to find blackhole

[fresh birch]

They should show on the galaxy map if you’ve made it far enough in the story

[tight nimbus]

The purple twist stuff?

Also i getting a freighter with 7 hour gameplau good?

I defended it and the captain just gave it

Irdk what to do w it

I want the red one

[abstract lion]

so i need help, i left a planet to get silver to fix up a ship i wanted to sell

[hollow coral]

Do you have star bulb listed on the planet?

[abstract lion]

but now i can't find the ship, can't summon it because it's damaged, and can't evencall it to the anomaly because it's damaged

[tulip dust]

@abstract lion
-# to view info below, enable embeds

Can't summon a ship?

If you don't have a freighter or have more than 6 active ships, go to a base on a planet, and save+reload restore point. A quick way to update restore point is to enter+exit ship/seat.

You should now be able to quick menu/summon any of your ships, regardless of its condition.

This is a failsafe added by the devs to ensure players never lose ships in their collection.

Shared by: tyndall_ Contributor(s): Atlas Emissaries

[inland crow]

I’m not on that one

[abstract lion]

does it have to be a base or can i just restore point in the anamoly

[analog scroll]

Has to be at a base

[abstract lion]

A base or MY base

cuz i don't have a base in the expedition

[analog scroll]

It can't be summoned to the Anomaly if the launch thrusters and/or pulse engine are damaged

[hollow coral]

nope non on that planet

[inland crow]

I can’t leave this place

I am stuck

[analog scroll]

Summon another ship if you have one, #nms-lfg-or-trades or #nms-expedition if you need help from someone for resources, since I doubt you can turn crafting to free during the expedition

[inland crow]

Oh wait I’ve found a teleported in one of the nearby bases

I still can’t do anything with this really unless I go to another base on a paradise planet with star bulbs

[hollow coral]

wonders what would happen if you joined someones game

[inland crow]

Dunno

[hollow coral]

unfortunetely, i gotta go work in 10, so cant help you in game

[inland crow]

I think the recipe might stay the same though

Wait what

It fixed itself

The launch thrusters just fixed themselves when I teleported to a random base

[hollow coral]

if you havnt already turn pvp off if you have mp on

just incase its some random dude shootin you

[inland crow]

I’ve turned that off

But the previous stuff is lost forever

I don’t know where it’s gone to

[raw kestrel]

Is update on xbox

[analog scroll]

Still no

Did you look in #nms-news-ticker ?

[tight nimbus]

Do ppl mostly use corvette?

[hollow coral]

not me, i dont like them

but i also lack imagination to build a nice looking one

[stuck berry]

I can't imagine not using them, but I'm also doing the expedition right now which prohibits them

[slate gale]

How do I do that jetpack boast thing I see a lot of people doing

[tropic ginkgo]

input sprint then input melee immediately, then input and hold jump

[stuck berry]

The melee boost?

[slate gale]

There's a melee?

[stuck berry]

Yes, there has been one since 2016

[tropic ginkgo]

you'd be surprised what you can do in games when you try pressing buttons

[slate gale]

I'm pretty new so I never really noticed

[abstract lion]

confused why i can't make one in the expedition

am i missing something i have to do first?

[stuck berry]

Decision made by Hello Games

[abstract lion]

oh okay

[stuck berry]

Expedition 22: The Swarm forbids corvette building, as well as copying starships from existing saves

[abstract lion]

i was gonna do it with a corvette ;3;

welp intercepter b class it is

[untold gate]

Is this good

[stuck berry]

It's fine

It being on an extreme irradiated world would boost mining yields, and you could probably have found one with a few more "balls"

[untold gate]

What the hell is a extreme irradiated world?

IMA BE RICH AHAHAHHAGAGA

[stuck berry]

An irradiated world that has extreme weather. Radiation storms boost mining beam resource yields, giving you more substance per mined thing (similar to the Optical Drill's buff)

Extreme worlds have storms at the highest frequency possible

[untold gate]

Idk what my planet is but it does have storms

[stuck berry]

It's a lush world

[wary dawn]

Can they stack? The storm and optical drill boost?

[stuck berry]

Yes, they stack multiplicatively

[untold gate]

Verdant planet

[wary dawn]

Excellent

[jade flower]

Should i take freighter or payment instead?

[wary dawn]

So theoretically I could have a planet for mining a bunch of iron and carbon?

[stuck berry]

If you don't own a freighter yet, I'd say take the freighter

[wary dawn]

Cuz I don't think you can have miners for those basic resources

[jade flower]

On the expedition

[stuck berry]

I guess? You could just make a Rusted Metal and Oxygen farm though. Rusted Meta

[stuck berry]

Then yeah, take it

[wary dawn]

Oh?? We can find rusted metal hotspots??

[stuck berry]

Yes, all Dead worlds have it as their biome resource

[jade flower]

Or should i take payment and get the better freighter?

[wary dawn]

Sickkkk

[jade flower]

Since the first encounter is always small freighters

[stuck berry]

A "better freighter" won't help you during this

[fresh birch]

I found a spot that’s dioxite and oxygen and have been refining dioxite into ferrite, then to pure ferrite, then to rusted metal

[jade flower]

True

Aight ty

[stuck berry]

Those have the same possibilities, just lower initial slot count ranges

[wary dawn]

What was dioxite again?

[fresh birch]

Blue one, CO2

[stuck berry]

The biome mineral for Frozen worlds

[kindred tulip]

guys, what should I do with this one?

[wary dawn]

Ah thx

[wary dawn]

That's carbon dioxide, silly
:3

[stuck berry]

Claim it, you can have up to 12 starships at a time

[hollow coral]

if you on about ferrite dust, you can also refine pyerite and parrfinium

[fresh birch]

The game calls it dioxite lol

[stuck berry]

plus an extra 18 in your Starship Archive accessed aboard your freighter

[fresh birch]

Yeah but dioxite seemed to have the least uses otherwise

[stuck berry]

Dioxite charges life support well

Ammonia is the least useful one

Also, Rusted Metal is objectively better for refining into Ferrite Dust

[fresh birch]

Can ammonia refine to ferrite?

[hollow coral]

i just laser mine it

[stuck berry]

All biome minerals can, except for like Faecium and Mordite

[kindred tulip]

that i know, i shouldve worded the question better
how should I use taht ship? it looks very good but doesnt use conventinal fuel and i feel like if i sell it i could get smt better

[fresh birch]

Nice. Will have to get a farm set up on my ammonia planet then. Been duping ferrite like crazy

[balmy adder]

claim it and sell it

[stoic plover]

so i just did the simulation reset quest and now my corvette is completely gone, it didnt spawn in with me on the new planet and i cant summon it since its critically damaged, anyone know how i can get my corvette back?

[stuck berry]

Save and reload at one of your planetary bases, then summon it #nms-questions message

[hollow coral]

dont you usually run to it?

[stuck berry]

Yes, it's supposed to spawn at a nearby crash site

[stoic plover]

i spent a solid 10-15 mins looking for it

[stuck berry]

but many summon a different ship and book it before they have repaired their Analysis Visor (required to see Starship icon on HUD)

[stoic plover]

ship was just not there

[vapid urchin]

Is it possible to add corvette guns to floating parts and they function?
Instead of my first build being a UFO, with all the work that goes into that.
I built 3 fighter size floating UFO. And i wanted to mount lasers on them.
I have weapons on them, they just wont fire for whatever reason.

[tough heron]

do i restart the game to change the language?

[stuck berry]

Yes, that's required for it to apply, or at least quitting to mode select I think

[hollow coral]

usually spawns around 500u away, u usually have to locate in visor and run to it

[tough heron]

Thanks so much!

[stuck berry]

Probably best to ask this in #nms-corvette-discussion

[vapid urchin]

Ty

[muted void]

Is one them missons it will take a week to do?

[spark lichen]

are these better than s tier or no

[stoic plover]

i did eventually spawn another ship in to try and spawn it at another spot, so its not gonna be just sitting around on the planet i spawned on correct?

[stuck berry]

If you've left the system or reloaded any saves, then it's despawned. You can spawn it in again using the quick menu

When any form of loading happens, all non-primary starships are despawned

[stoic plover]

i cant spawn it in the quick menu, its still critically damaged, so im guessing its just lost in the void of nothingness at this point

[stuck berry]

Have you just saved and reloaded at one of your planetary bases?

[muted void]

Great 🙁

[stoic plover]

that was one of the first things i tried and nothing happened, it just spawned the ship i swapped to

[stuck berry]

Then you did something wrong. Be at any of your planetary bases, enter + exit your current primary starship, select Reload Restore Point in the options, then open the Quick Menu > Summon Vehicles > Select Other Ship and select the damaged starship while aiming your camera at a flat area of terrain. This feature is a failsafe left in by the developers to never allow the player to be stuck without a ship, it always works when done correctly.

[jade flower]

They look cooler

[analog scroll]

@stoic plover What Grouch said. It's a built in safety feature by the devs. If you do it right, it always works. It's so you can't be without your ship, ever

[trim mesa]

Whom was the person that was farming runaway Mold and who do you do it

[supple hull]

do you get the recources required to build something back after destroying it?

[stuck berry]

Yes, 100% of them if deleted manually via build mode

[stuck berry]

I believe this post #nms-questions message describes how to farm Curious Deposits for their Runaway Mold

[trim mesa]

ok thanks

[stoic plover]

tried this and it did work, i think it didnt work at first because i didnt enter and exit my ship, i just went to the anomaly and teleported there, then did the restore point

unless that part doesnt matter which i have no clue why it wasnt working before

[stuck berry]

If the save you reloaded wasn't at one of your planetary bases, then that's why it didn't work

[wide stream]

Do all freighters in pirate systems have 15 inv slots

Ive been hunting for a better freighter (current is c class 15 inv 8 tech) and this A class freighter has the same amount of slots i thought it would have more

or is it just that it has a higher max inventory count

[stuck berry]

You can just add more later

All freighters have the same max upgradeable slot count per their class

[spark lichen]

are the black market upgrades better than s upgrades or no

[stuck berry]

Their maximum stat possibilities are slightly higher, but their minimums are basically 0 and they tend towards the lower end

whereas S-Class upgrade modules have a fixed range of high stats with a tendency for the higher end of that I believe

[crystal harness]

Any idea if update is live on xbox yet?

[wide stream]

[analog scroll]

It is not

[wide stream]

I dont have it

[analog scroll]

Then it's not your freighter

[crystal harness]

Thanks.

[analog scroll]

Or you're in your ship, in which case you can dismiss the freighter from the quick menu

[wide stream]

Yeah it wasnt my freighter and my ship got stuck and was killing itself

[kindred tulip]

just get mined bro

[swift sand]

clear some exosuit inventory space

[kindred tulip]

oh yeah right. thanks

[whole verge]

Hii o/ I've got a question, I'm new to the game and I've finished the awakening tutorial quest fully. After switching every Network on me and my friend we cannot place stuff on each other bases and we have no idea why at this point. Every time either he or I try to put a floor tile for example, the grass underneath will disappear but the floor tile will never materialize. Are we missing something ?

[stuck berry]

I think that's just an issue with the recent major update

[swift sand]

i've seen another player recently reporting the same issues. with another report pretty much about the same thing, i'm starting to think that there's a new bug. i'd suggest raising abug report when you get a bit of spare time

!hg @whole verge

[tulip dust]

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

[whole verge]

I'm doing that right now , maybe someone else has an idea about this

[swift sand]

hopefully. at the time we tried suggesting multiple things to fix the issue, but came up empty. tbf, it should literally just work. one thing that might be worth checking out is, when playing solo, if the parts added to a base when in multiplayer do spawn or not.

[spark lichen]

what are memory fragments and what are spawning sacs ?

[stuck berry]

Memory Fragments are items that open into packaged blueprint tech or upgrade, and spawning sacs are an item that allows you to upgrade living ship slot count

[swift sand]

the former are basically tech/upgrade module loot boxes these days (though there were more types, back in expedition7); spawning sacs are living ships storage augmentation items

[kindred tulip]

guys i've got some money by salvaging a sentinel ship, what should I do with it? ( i still use the default starship btw)

[whole verge]

We just tried it and yes anything that was created in multiplayer appears fine when we back in solo

[swift sand]

the starter gear, with a few more tech inventory slots, can carry you through the entire game - more tech slots, more space to slot in and stack upgrade modules to buff your gear, possibly even revealing supercharged slots, which buff what we install in them by 1.25x (well, most things)

[swift sand]

yeah, def some kind of bug - thank you for the feedback

[kindred tulip]

i see

[swift sand]

so, i'd not shy away from adding a few slots here and there - a few more cargo ones to fill up those gaps too - even if you're eventually gonna swap to diff gear. it's easy to get storage augmentation or mt expansion slot items.

that said, if you see gear you like the looks of - that's worth getting

you'll see that eventually, 40M is pocket change

[kindred tulip]

yes , storage is the bane of my existence in this game rn XD

[hallow swallow]

do you know how can I join that new thing with team? And if I can join because I'm new

[swift sand]

perhaps hoarding a little bit too much

[kindred tulip]

well, idk what most elements do I just sort of collect pretty much anything that looks worth getting

[swift sand]

hi; the "new thing with team" is a different game mode, called expedition, time limited - but still 6 weeks left to do it and complete it to unlock the goodies on your account. they can be completed fairly easily, in a few hours, but that said, if you're really really new, i'd suggest putting in like 2 weeks in a normal game mode character, so that you can actually learn the game a bit first

[hallow swallow]

I have 19 hours so I know the game a bit and I don't want to miss the rewards

[kindred tulip]

i was thinking of creating a custom starfighter (for the looks) so ill do some research for that

[hallow swallow]

at what point am I considered "not new"?

[swift sand]

for example, these upgrade modules. forbidden aka sentinel weapon modules only buff boltcaster, so if you're not using boltcaster weapon tech on your tool to deal damage, no point installing that one. just sell it for nanites. same kind of principle goes for the other two: if you're not going to use them, sell for nanites. the next thing i'd look at is if there are stacks of the same materials in a diff inventory e.g. freighter or exosuit - and merge those stacks into a single inventory

[analog scroll]

You have 8 weeks to complete the expedition. You don't have to rush into it

[kindred tulip]

already did both, and yes i was gonna sell those I just forgot at some point lmao

got a bunch of those modules, i think theyre for that corvette thing idk

[swift sand]

for example: you have no difficulties following and completing missions like ones in space stations. or you know how to handle fuel usage, you know how to handle yourself in combat, you know where to get things like upgrade modules or various materials for crafting, you know that multiplayer can sometimes bug out things, that pvp is enabled by default, etc

[swift sand]

the corvette modules you can keep - there's a dedicated corvette parts inventory in every space station, shared across all space stations: the corvette workshop cache. throw them in there if you dont want to sell them

[whole verge]

Could it be something like I need to finish all the primary missions ? I only finished awekening and just started 'ghosts in the machine' (Also have 'the atlas path' and 'the space anomaly' atm)

[swift sand]

no no, it should just work

like parts should insta render, or render with a very small delay you know just because of it being "online"

really sounds like a bug

i'd just treat it as such

[kindred tulip]

ah, gotta move my corvette pieces from freighter to station then I assume

[whole verge]

Notedd

[swift sand]

yeah, push them to your ship or something, then goto the station, and exit ship. cursor over the parts in the exosuit/ship inventory (either of those will work), then hit quick transfer, then corvette workshop cache. it's towards the entrance of the station

[spark lichen]

does anyone need void eggs for free cos i got too many

[swift sand]

offer up in #nms-lfg-or-trades - here's just for gameplay/tech support questions 😉

[kindred tulip]

did it, thanks man
this game is awesome but holy shit things are complicated XD (not a bad thing, just hard to learn stuff sometimes)

[swift sand]

nice! yeah, it can be overwhelming for sure. go at your own pace, no rush.

[umbral dawn]

What's the status on light no fire

[spark lichen]

sure

[kindred tulip]

yes, first imma build a starship and upgrade it, then ill worry about all of the building a base stuff

[hot birch]

Is there an easy way to find a pirate system without a conflict scanner?

[swift sand]

type !LNFLinkin #bot-spam , join that server - or try asking around #light-no-fire

I always get that one wrong...

if i fly away with my ship how do i find my planet back?

[analog scroll]

Planets are big. They're hard to miss

is the swarm stuff from the expedition unique to the expedition or can it be encountered in a normal save

[analog scroll]

Crash sites and debris are in the normal game, the swarms and motherships are expedition content

[untold terrace]

whattttttttt

[swift sand]

1. discoveries menu, click on the planet, then mark it - there'll be a marker on your hud pointing to it
2. ship quick menu/utilities/change camera to cockpit camera, use mini map to orient yourself

Update on xbox yet?

[analog scroll]

It will be listed in #nms-news-ticker. You don't need to ask every hour. At this point, it's unlikely to be out today

[raw kestrel]

Aw

Be back in 1 hour and one minute

[spark lichen]

can xbox and ps5 play together

[analog scroll]

Not at the moment

[spark lichen]

anyone know what i can do with memory fragments

[analog scroll]

Use them

[dreamy bear]

Are these turboslots good?

[analog scroll]

It's a freighter. You're likely not using it for much, and you're certainly not using it for combat. They're fine

[cerulean cliff]

Freighter upgrades aren't even really that necessary

Unless you want to jump across an entire galaxy with ease

[analog scroll]

I'd argue the drives are, especially before you complete In Stellar Multitudes, and the Matter Beam, but really few others

Because you can summon it anywhere for free, and with the matter beam you can access inventory from anywhere as well

[dreamy bear]

I have to discover atlas still

[spark lichen]

i try to absorb them and it says max class reached

what else do i do with them or do i just give them away

[analog scroll]

Then you can't use those ones. Delete them, sell them, or give them away

[stuck berry]

Those items aren't meant to be obtainable normally, they increase the class of your starship or freighter or smth

[analog scroll]

Ship or tool, typically

[cerulean cliff]

Are you the same person who has like hundreds of starship locations?

[spark lichen]

does anyone want them then since i dont need them

[stuck berry]

they were only given from Expedition 7: Leviathan to help the first permadeath expedition be a bit easier, and before the "class upgrade" reward from future expeditions was added

[analog scroll]

#nms-lfg-or-trades

[swift sand]

fwiw, upgraded ship if used when we're in a ship, multitool if when on foot iirc

[sharp grove]

How do I get glass in the expedition?

I need it for the second objective

[analog scroll]

Refine silicate powder or craft it with frost crystals

[sharp grove]

i'm dumb i forgot i could do the silicate thing

they should show that in the UI

[swift sand]

they do actually, in the mission log entry

[sharp grove]

Hey bk! I remember you!

[swift sand]

i remember you too

[sharp grove]

[spark lichen]

what do i do in this game

[swift sand]

lots of stuff! quests, base building, exploring, cooking, fishing, combat, pets/companions, hunting for cool gear (e.g. ships, multitools, etc), building your own gear, etc

it's a sandbox kinda game basically

but some quests open up some content

i'd suggest starting to progress and complete main storyline first, aka the artemis path

[polar tinsel]

Question: Would it be possible to transfer a creature egg from the expedition over to my main save? I'm aware I can get the eggs I unlocked from expeditions at the quicksilver vendor, I'm asking because when I tried hatching the sandworm egg after collecting, it never spawned and I can't get another one on my main save cause its "already been claimed"

[cerulean cliff]

It's literally not possible to answer that, the game is an entire universe

The amount of stuff this game has is crazy

[analog scroll]

No, the eggs cannot be transferred

[cerulean cliff]

I still have a cracking void egg after getting my living ship from like forever ago

Can I make fried eggs or is the thing useless

[polar tinsel]

Its rather open ended on what you choose to do. You can explore planets, build bases, trade with npcs, manage a fleet of freighters to do little trips for you that'll get you items or credits, or fight pirates/sentinels. You determine what you want to do, cause just like the game's universe - the possibilities are endless

Things available:

• Archaeology: dig up bones and put together custom fossils
• find settlements and effectively become the mayor in managing it
• Build corvette ships: Ships you can actually walk around in, think the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars or the Milano from GotG
• Explore: Find animals, plants and minerals you can name yourself, even name the planet if you were the first to discover it (as the game's universe is quite literally so massive that its borderline infinite with how big it is)

The sky is not the limit here, as the expanse beyond it is practically infinite

[polar tinsel]

I've mainly just kept mine as a memento

[cerulean cliff]

I guess I'll keep mine

[buoyant terrace]

Find a earthlike planet like i did:

[cerulean cliff]

If I want to get another living ship, do I need to get another void egg

I know that it should skip the starbirth quest

[polar tinsel]

Yeah, but don't worry you won't have to do the whole quest again

[cerulean cliff]

Id rather spend my 3000 quicksilver on some stupid looking cosmetics

Like the gek hood

[midnight mason]

Reload your restoration point. Maybe you'll be back at the point from before the hatching if it's not overwritten yet

[cerulean cliff]

I look like a deformed Palpatine

[polar tinsel]

My gamer, that was literally ages ago

Its BEYOND going back to lmao

[midnight mason]

Save editing then?

[polar tinsel]

I'm on PS5

My best chance to getting it would be doing a sort of pass off with someone else or finding someone else who has an egg they'd be willing to give me

Think I unlocked it back when I still played NMS on my Switch (the first one), and practically all of the good stuff of the game wasn't available such as the settlements, corvettes, or playing with other people

I've since then completely switched over to playing on my PS5

If someone has the Sandworm and an egg from it, I'd be willing to trade the egg laid by one of my critters for it.

[thorny patrol]

i am confused and scared, help

[candid zinc]

When can I customize my character

[thorny patrol]

Space stations or the anomaly

[candid zinc]

Alright

[cerulean cliff]

Is this game inspired by spore?

Genuine question, I've been playing spore and I've noticed a ton of similarities

[thorny patrol]

Both peak games, only real connection imo is the procedural stuff

Fauna generation is REAL similar

[cerulean cliff]

The grox remind me a lot of the gek, and the space age is straight up just no mans sky gameplay compressed

They are still very different games but they have small similarities

[kind crescent]

Am new to NMS 2 on the Switch 2 (I used to play on PS4 and now on Mac). I can't load my cloud save on switch because the latest switch version is not the same as the PC/Mac version. How long does it take for the Switch (and Switch 2) to be up to date with the other environments?

[polar tinsel]

Whenever you get to any space station or the Anomaly, there is a character customization station. The ones of stations are on the ground floor to the right side of the big eye looking thing, and the one on the anomaly is also on the right, up the stairs and right across from the gourmet food guy

[candid zinc]

Yeah I got lot to go I’m still on my first planet lol

[polar tinsel]

Because of Nintendo being Nintendo and being someone who played on the switch 1, that can take a bit

[polar tinsel]

Oh the moment you fix up your ship then, you'll be able to since every system has a station unless a) its an abandoned system or b) its an undiscovered system with no npcs there

[spark lichen]

how to trade this to someone ?

what is the glitch to do it

[shell ridge]

The process is Pinned in #nms-legacy-ships channel.

[gaunt pagoda]

whats the quickest way to get a settlement out of debt/ more production then maintence cost?

[hot birch]

How did you install 3 of theses?

[spark lichen]

idk it jus came like that

[hot birch]

Hmm

[stuck berry]

Save editing

[hot birch]

O

[stray prawn]

How to do the restore sweeper mission? I went straight ahead to that giant ball thint and almost died lol

[polar tinsel]

That honestly lies in simply upgrading the buildings of the settlement, along with making decisions that will improve production and/or lower maintenance cost

[silver bluff]

are haulers good for damage?

[stray prawn]

No

[stuck berry]

Like any ship, it really depends on the upgrades/tech you install, but they have one of the lowest damage bonus ranges

[gaunt pagoda]

is there a way that i can do more than one upgrade or building at oonce

[slim atlas]

Hello guys I'm having this problem where every time I load my save doors disappear from my base

[stuck berry]

Is your base very high up in the sky?

[slim atlas]

It's on a tidal planet on the water surface

[silver bluff]

what are they good for?

[stuck berry]

Big starting inventory/upgraded cargo inventory, very high shield strength bonus % range

Corvettes share these though, and have their special upgrades given by their modules that make them good at stuff

And Sentinel ships share the first part and are always free

[slim atlas]

That might count as high I guess?

[stuck berry]

Possibly, due to being high above the terrain below you

[slim atlas]

I think it's like 1400 meters deep

[stuck berry]

Yeah, this is just what happens when building "high above the terrain"

What does titan class walkway have adjacency besides habs?

[stuck berry]

Habs and walkways, like all other habs and walkways

[hot birch]

Where was something else too though I thought

[stuck berry]

Their adjacency never reaches anything to actually provide improvement

Oh, the cargo things you attach to your corvette probably

[hot birch]

Okie

Thx

[wary dawn]

Idk why a plant grows it lmao

Imma go hunting….

[stuck berry]

For building a fighter/hauler/explorer/solar ship, or building a corvette?

[wary dawn]

Normal ship or Corvette?

Jinx

We gotta kiss now

(/j)

[stuck berry]

😱

[supple hull]

building a fighter

mb

[wary dawn]

Scrap ships

[supple hull]

didnt know the difference

[supple hull]

how do I find them?

[wary dawn]

In the scrapping terminal at a space station

[stuck berry]

Then salvage other fighters and select to extract customisation modules from them

you can buy fighters from landed pilots aboard space stations or find them at crash sites #nms-questions message

Vy'keen star systems have more fighter designs

[wary dawn]

Uh
Ok so usually you buy ships or find them, and scrap them to get some of their components
Usually people hunt for specific parts they want since the visual look of the wing/hull/engine is carried over to the new ship

[wary dawn]

Checks out

Do gek systems have more haulers or explorers?

[swift sand]

haulers

[wary dawn]

Mmmm what about korvax

[stuck berry]

Explorers

[wary dawn]

Ouuu

Thanksss

[swift sand]

and vykeen fighters; outlaw systems more solars

[supple hull]

how do I salvage them? do I need a ship upgrade

[wary dawn]

Man I wish there was a place to SHOW OFF ships, not just store them like in a freighter

I wanna collect all sorts of ships and showcase them in a base 🥺

[stuck berry]

Equip the ship, then interact with a Starship Outfitting Terminal

[wary dawn]

Nah just go to the terminal and click on salvage ship, it'll break the one you have selected

Dammit

[supple hull]

i have plenty of money, where do I buy them for the parts?

[stuck berry]

select the salvage analysis option, then select to extract a customisation module

[wary dawn]

As Grouch said, in space stations, or maybe trading posts in a planet

Anywhere that an npc flies down to trade

[stuck berry]

Vy'keen star systems have more fighter designs, so you'll have more variety/odds there

[wary dawn]

You can talk to them to buy their ship

[supple hull]

ok ok bet

how do I dismantle them?

im new

mb

[wary dawn]

Dude

Grouch just said it lmao

[wary dawn]

Right here

[supple hull]

yooo

im blind

thanks

[wary dawn]

Yessir

Blind ass

Lmao

Have fun searching for a design you like!

[supple hull]

preciate it

yep

[desert escarp]

what should i search for to get ship modules?

[wary dawn]

I don't remember :D

[wary dawn]

Wdym by modules? Like tech upgrade?

Inventory upgrade?

[desert escarp]

uhh ship parts

to create the medium ship

[hot birch]

basically just find any salvageable scrap world and mine salvage containers

[hot birch]

@desert escarp

[desert escarp]

okay ty

[desert escarp]

that?

oh yeah, tysm

[stuck berry]

You can shoot them with most starship weapons to harvest them through the terrain

The Cyclotron Ballista is the most ideal for this

this is also most ideally done using a corvette-class starship itself, as you can exit the seat mid-air to mark Salvage Containers, then resume piloting

[long horizon]

Is this a good ship

[wary dawn]

An easy way to do it is to have a Corvette-

DAMNIT GROUCH STOP READING MY MIND

[stuck berry]

Seeing the technology inventory would help a bit, but it seems decent

upgrades could improve the maneuverability and hyperdrive range somewhat drastically

[long horizon]

Icl I've come of pc all tech is x/s class

Is the damage on this staff any good

[stuck berry]

Well you're definitely either missing lots of upgrades or using low-rolling illegal upgrades

[stuck berry]

Which weapon do you use?

this varies drastically based on which weapon you use

[spark lichen]

i can give u some s upgrades, join my session

[long horizon]

Standard one

[long horizon]

U gave me them x class parts lol

[stuck berry]

For the Boltcaster that's extremely high damage

[spark lichen]

ye ik

[stuck berry]

almost as high as mine

[long horizon]

But I've Gona off now I'll come back on tomorrow

[spark lichen]

s ones are probably better but idk

[long horizon]

Kk cool

[stuck berry]

illegal ones have higher maxes, but their minimums are basically 0 and tend towards that

[spark lichen]

which ones are better the purple ones or the gold ones

[stuck berry]

so you'd need to roll dozens to hundreds to get a good batch of upgrades better than the S maximums, and even then it's only usually 10-20% higher

[stuck berry]

I just described the differences #nms-questions message #nms-questions message

[spark lichen]

alr thanks bro

anyone know how to get fighter parts

[stuck berry]

Salvage fighters and select to extract customisation module from them

[spark lichen]

cant i buy them or something

[stuck berry]

Yes, you can, from landed pilots aboard space stations, freighters or at trade outposts

Vy'keen star systems have more fighter designs

[wheat cove]

You can't buy the parts (except the reactor), only the whole ship

[stoic plover]

does anyone have advice on finding exotic planets that have the weird decor items? i wanna start a small collection of them for my base

[wheat cove]

If you just want the glitched parts, you can look up portal glyphs for planets with them on nmsce.com

[stuck berry]

Go to red star systems, they have them most frequently

[cedar dune]

Does anyone know why my switch 2 won’t update nms? Google said it’s released but when I tell it to update software it says I have the latest version and if I try loading my synced save it says it’s not the right version

"The Swarm" is only out on PS, Steam and GOG currently. It has not released on Switch 2 yet.

Keep an eye on #nms-news-ticker for the announcement

[brazen plume]

It also isn't on xbox yet

[novel orbit]

For the prismatic core contruction, is it something the player has to work towards or is it a community thing

Community

[novel orbit]

Oh ok so you no one can completely finish the expedition until we have constructed it?

Correct

[opal marsh]

Is a large fighter going to have the most potential technology slots? I'm ship hunting in 3 Star Galaxy space stations. Is one race more likely to have large fighters?

[spark lichen]

?

[swift sand]

@spark lichen we can own up to 12 active ships,+18 archived - cant archive corvettes

[wheat cove]

You can only have 12 active ships, you need to archive some on your freighter or sell/scrap some

[spark lichen]

how to archive ?

[swift sand]

if you cant buy a ship, you either dont have the units to, or dont have a free active ship slot

[wheat cove]

On your freighter, in the middle console, there's 3 terminals - one of them lets you manage your squadron, fleet, and archived ships

[spark lichen]

oh yh my slot wasnt free

[spark lichen]

its full

[spark lichen]

ill jus sell one of my ship ig

[wheat cove]

You cannot own all the ships 😄

[spark lichen]

its sad

ok i bought the ship now how do i get the parts from the ship etc ?

[opal marsh]

found this. looks like there is no reference to size.

[wheat cove]

Go to a space station, at the back left (assuming it's a regular one) there's a terminal for upgrading/scrapping ships. Select to scrap, then extract customization module.

[stuck berry]

Yes, maximum upgradeable slot count does not factor size at all

[spark lichen]

corvette workshop ?

[wheat cove]

No, the other end of the station

[wheat cove]

Behind the mission agent

[spark lichen]

oh yh i see

[stuck berry]

Begin Salvage Analysis > Extract customisation module > the part that you want

[spark lichen]

what is a corvette workshop then ?

[stuck berry]

To build corvette-class starships #nms-commands message

how do you not know, you've built a corvette before

[spark lichen]

havent played in years bro

im basically a noob

[stuck berry]

Corvettes were added within the last year, and you have one

[spark lichen]

also i only built like one ship before

[stuck berry]

the only way to normally obtain a corvette is to build it yourself

[spark lichen]

probably my save then

[deep junco]

Is anyone else having issues building in their friends base? Item and materials disappear immediately after building? I'm open to any ideas on how to fix.

[opal marsh]

I found a ship with a vesper sail but it doesn't allow me to transfer it to another ship. is this craftable later in the game?

[raw kestrel]

Is update on xbox yet

[brazen plume]

Not yet

[raw kestrel]

Davay ubeyom ceo microslop

[brazen plume]

?

This is a standard thing that has been going on for a long time. With nms xbox gets the update a couple days later

[stuck berry]

We can never obtain the blueprint for the Vesper Sails, and we can never package it.

It exclusively comes on Solar ships, it's one of the main reasons to use them

[swift sand]

known issue, no known fix, but the parts should be there when in solo

Wait so after "Sabotage" mission, do you just have to wait now?

[brazen plume]

I think so... they are probably waiting for all platforms to have access till it goes forward

[wide stream]

does custom and normal count as the same gamemode

[spark lichen]

how do i get more staffs ?

[brazen plume]

Build them

[spark lichen]

how do i do that

[hot birch]

Buy parts with void motes

[wheat cove]

I assume you mean to reply to the expedition question - yes, everyone has to wait and just keep doing missions

[spark lichen]

from where

[hot birch]

And then go to the build terminal thingy

[hot birch]

Same place where you made the first one

[spark lichen]

idk bro

[novel orbit]

Oh ok! thanks for clarifying

[brazen plume]

Fyi the colors wont be the same for everyone else they will be default blue and white so if that matters it is knowledge to know

[hot birch]

Kinda? It depends on what you're trying to do

[wide stream]

The only thing i changed was fishing timing

from standard to relaxed i think

[hot birch]

Why does it matter if it's normal vs custom though?

[wide stream]

Arent craetive and normal seperated like you cant interact with normal mode bases if in creative

Just wanted to check there wasnt such a thing for my custom game

[hot birch]

Oh yeah, but as long as the mode you select within custom is normal you should be fine

Fishing is minor enough that I don't think it matters

[wide stream]

Yea i was able to change it back to normal and nothing changed so i think i was already in normal

[stuck berry]

All gamemodes can play with each other and see each others' bases, except permadeath which can only do multiplayer with other permadeath players

same with community expedition saves, locked to their own kind

[wheat cove]

Autophage camps - you can find them at non-outpost waypoints in populated systems (e.g. crashed freighters, upgrade drop pods). You need a Polyphonic Core or Scan Harmoniser to uncover their camps.

You can also find harmonic camps on dissonant planets with an Echo Locator from disonance resonators.

[wide stream]

Oh so in my case it wouldnt really matter

Also would it be optimal to use 2 different multitools - staff for dmg and runic for mining or should i just do all in one

[stuck berry]

if you want

[hot birch]

I'm having an issue where I pulse for 30 secs to try and get more freighters to spawn but I've been pulsing for a minute or so, exit and they don't jump in

[dense hornet]

Really just depends on how much time you're willing to dedicate to fully upgrading both, and also maybe how fast you're able to switch between them on the fly

[stuck berry]

What eco tier is the system you're in?

if 1, try a different system

[cedar dune]

Use the poly-something mod in your multitool to find autophage camps. Talk to them to do missions and earn void motes. Interact with the terminal at the camp to spend void motes on appearance items or randomized staff parts. The same terminal can be used to assemble a new staff. If you don’t see the part you want charge the poly-something radar thing in your multitool and find another autophage camp. Repeat.

[hot birch]

2

[stuck berry]

then wait a while out of pulse

[hot birch]

Oh ok

[stuck berry]

they're on a timer that varies, begins after you're no longer in pulse or in-atmo

[spark lichen]

alr thanks bro

[spark lichen]

i got a lot of void motes already, where is the terminal at the camp tho ?

[shy ginkgo]

[shy ginkgo]

thank you thoughj

[spark lichen]

how to find autophage camps

[swift sand]

have you completed they who returned quest? need that done to be able to find them - then it's just using a MT tech called polyphonic core to find autophage camps. or did you mean harmonic camps? they're different camps.

[spark lichen]

i jus need to go to the place to spend the void notes for my staff etc

dont think ive done any quests but how do i check

[swift sand]

pause, catalog&guide, collected knowledge, on the left sidebar, do you see autophage entry?

@spark lichen ^ need to do all those steps to start that quest if you dont

[spark lichen]

i dont think so

[swift sand]

yeah, see the gunter post above - first up, complete main storyline

[shrewd garnet]

Hey does anyone know when you are comparing a new ship/freighter/multi-tool to your old one (for claiming/buying) if there's a way to compare exclusive the base stats of each rather than the stats with upgrades applied? For example if my current ship has hyperdrive upgrades in it, how do I compare its base stats to a new ship without taking out all of the upgrades?

[fresh birch]

I think the red/green arrows next to the numbers correlate to the base stats

[hollow coral]

In game you cant without taking upgrades off

[fresh birch]

I was viewing a solar ship and the maneuvering was like, 400 something while my corvette is 1500 and it had a green up arrow next to the solar ship’s

[shrewd garnet]

Ah ok, I thought the arrows took upgrades into account

[hollow coral]

True figures only show up once you have bought and sat in it

[spark lichen]

alr thanks

[shrewd garnet]

Still a bit unhelpful that you can't see the actual base numbers yeah

whats an explorer guild envoy and does it matter or na

[high hound]

so I’m playing the new expedition and I need glass to make this extra thing to fix my ship. I cant get frost wart ANYWHERE bc I’m not on an icey planet, what in the world am I supposed to do?? 😭😞 I genuinely don’t see a way out of this problem.

[spark lichen]

actually nvm its fine i dismantled it

anyone know what i can do with these/what is the point of these

[hollow coral]

Refine silicon or whatever its called

[sly parrot]

guys i rescued my first freighter but accepted money instead of the freighter itself

will my next freighter rescue also offer me a free ship?

[swift sand]

later on - yeah, eventually you'll raise standing with them. there's 3 npc guilds in nms, merchants, mercenaries and explorers. 1 guild per galaxy map region. they cant be found in outlaw or abandoned systems. in regular stations, their booth is in the observation deck, towards the back right

[fresh birch]

I usually dump them all in the station box next to the corvette terminal

[spark lichen]

interesting

[spark lichen]

ye ill do the same they jus clog space

[swift sand]

exp22 tips post <#nms-expedition message> - like @hollow coral said, refine silicate powder to glass

[hushed saffron]

why do you have so many wiring looms 😭

[high hound]

I’ll see if I can find what you’re talking about

[fresh birch]

Never know when you’ll want to play around with parts

[high hound]

thank you!!

[spark lichen]

its a small amount wym

[swift sand]

until you take ownership of a freighter, all freighters rescued from pirates will be offered for free

[hushed saffron]

(silicate powder is gotten by using the terrain manipulator to mine the ground, btw)

[hollow coral]

Use terrain manipulator on ground, anywhere except a node

[swift sand]

flatten mode gets more faster
