What in the galactic poptarts did I just tame?

Sad doggo

[golden gulch]

Distira diplos just built different

[crimson needle]

True

[copper yoke]

Are certain pets a max extreme of size when found? I have two creatures that no matter what I put into egg editor (eggitor?) they will only grow, nothing seems to shrink them. On xbox, so no mods or anything.

[deep badger]

radioactive dragons for once, normally find them on raining planets (euclid, but extreme radioactive moon)

with these birds on the same world

[golden gulch]

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/lor3v2/egg_sequencer_raw_materials_and_their_effects/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

[copper yoke]

Yeah, unfortunately, even the stuff that says it should shrink it, makes it bigger unless it is some sort of text glitch. I guess I'll just try anyway and see what happens. 🙂

[deep badger]

what is the creatures "Height"?

[copper yoke]

0.6m naturally

[deep badger]

perhaps what I'm thinking isn't correct, hadn't tested it but was wondering, since if memory serves all the pets i've maxed grow to 3.0, leading me to believe that's just a general term for determining the max size

once I can get back in game i'll check

[copper yoke]

I wonder if 0.5 might be the smallest end of the spectrum. Odd though, seems it would give me the "inherited" text instead of making it have the opposite effect. 🙂 It's still cute, I just thought it might be even cuter super tiny lol.

[deep badger]

going to try for a smaller butterfly one, just to have it around

already have the big ones to ride though

[copper yoke]

Same, I have a couple of "mounts" and a few just for looks. Also, some just for weird value. I have no idea what I'm about to hatch but it's bound to be awful lol.

[golden gulch]

This makes sense now...0.5m is pretty much the smallest I've come across and have never been able to make them smaller from that. Can definitely make them huge though. The pic above is a baby

[copper yoke]

Yeah, the big ones are really cool too. I wish it didn't go by height, my critter is sort of flat, it isn't really all that small. Maybe I'll make a massive one just for giggles lol.

[golden gulch]

I keep a tiny little deer around for my little one

[deep badger]

always love seeing them, the size of your foot

[copper yoke]

❤️ It's cute!

[bronze roost]

ive got a child of helios egg if anyone wants to trade for an older event pet like the dog mech

[graceful iris]

Anybody know if it’s possible to tame creatures that only stay in the air?

[spark jay]

It's not sadly

[spark jay]

If in the details about them it says flying then they can't any ground animals can

[graceful iris]

Oh ok ty

[copper yoke]

The actual flying ones, no but you can get the "flying" fish/tadpole critters that hover all the time. That might be the closest.

Euclid

[worldly yacht]

How do you make dragonflies larger than 3m?

[spark jay]

Eggs

[deep badger]

the only legged creature on this paradise planet (euclid)

[charred monolith]

How long till a pet fully grows?

[copper yoke]

When you guys talk about "dragonflies" are you referring to the butterflies with long bodies or is there something that more closely resembles one I just haven't found yet? If it's the latter, please share pics ❤️

[worldly yacht]

Butterflies

[copper yoke]

Thank you! Wanted to make sure I didn't need to go on a hunt 🙂

[cyan beacon]

just finished my first expedition yesterday and was wondering if its possible to change the size of the companion that you get

i first assumed it was possible but ive seen a couple people saying that you cant

so i just wanna confirm

[copper yoke]

I think I've made a mistake, my baby Diplo is 12m....and it keeps saying it's hungry...

[median solstice]

Max 1 week usually

[worldly yacht]

Is that animation jank unavaoidable with colossal pets?

[kind tulip]

Is there a way to get a child of helios egg without doing the expeditions? Just curious 🙂 if i gotta do the work thats fine!

[crimson needle]

I think its tradeble

[kind tulip]

@crimson needle i kinda figured but i dont have anything that valuable to trade for it so i didnt wanna start looking for a trade and waste someones time if that makes sense

[crimson needle]

Yeah. I get that👍

[charred monolith]

Anyone got a Helios egg I can trade tainted metal

[floral badger]

Theres a lot of kind people that gives it for free here, you could try. But i mean you could always do the expedition it only takes 2-5 hour

[kind tulip]

@floral badger oh wow i didnt know it only takes that long. I wanted to do expedition but ive been dragging my feet on starting. Thank you!

[wicked ledge]

I do have a helios egg for anyone who wants it but the expedition is def no trouble

[solid crystal]

I could use the egg!

[kind tulip]

@wicked ledge if you have more than 1 i would love to pcik one up! Otherwise its no biggie 🥰 im just trying to really get into the game and get at least 1 nice of everything 🙂

[wicked ledge]

Hey! Only have 1 atm but I think I can get another after a 24 hour timer :))

[kind tulip]

@wicked ledge oh you dont have to do that! I have toooons of other stuff i can work on then get into the expedition but i really do appreciate it! I dont want anyone to do any extra work for me 🙂

[charred monolith]

I'm looking for 1 as well

[wicked ledge]

Np! The expeditions kind of intimidated me at first but this one was the first I did and it’s worth it :).

[kind tulip]

@wicked ledge oh ok! I wasnt quite sure how they worked but ill do some research

[wicked ledge]

for this one at least, I believe there’s five sets of milestones which you can do in any order and include things like “make x units” and “kill pirates”

[kind tulip]

@wicked ledge oh ok! Thank you so much 🙂

[floral badger]

👍

[kind tulip]

Just got an egg from this crab baby! It will be ready to hatch in 24 hours, and says it has the genetic potential to be very large and gentle if anyone wants it 🙂

[solid crystal]

Wow!

Better photos

WearBear wolf/bear

[spice jungle]

What galaxy is that crab from

[kind tulip]

@spice jungle its from euclid 🙂

[spice jungle]

Ok thanks and do you have the cords

[kind tulip]

@spice jungle i dont 😦 i can try to figure it out, but its from before i stopped playing for a year. I can gie yoi an egg at some point at the very least! Im just watching a movie with my daughter rn 🙂

[spice jungle]

That’s fine I’ll try and find it

[kind tulip]

Ok! If i can figure it out when i get back on, ill message you 🙂

[kind tulip]

@spice jungle im not sure if this helps at all but its native climate is verdant!

[spice jungle]

Ok thanks

[deep badger]

fish, that is all

i suppose that planets winged dog men are also of interest

[deep badger]

more butterflies (euclid)

2 types 1 world

they're, somewhat common here

[heavy mirage]

Hi, is the size for flying companions (except the worm maybe) capped to 1.0m?

[foggy brook]

no

[heavy mirage]

Oh I see, maybe its just this specific one is 1.0m, a dragon given by Bob. I tried jacking it up with growth materials, didn't even grow an inch

[heavy mirage]

I kinda wanted to make this fella bigger lol. Looks like imma just toy with the genetics for body parts

[deep badger]

these guys seem to cap at 3

[heavy mirage]

Looks like Helios is also capped to 1.0m

Not sure if I can change its color

[deep badger]

i've seen that creature in many different colors, this one I posted was from a yellow parent, but I used some re-color items during the several stages while doing the personality tweaking

[heavy mirage]

Cool, imma play around with this one

[heavy mirage]

Hatched a new eagle 😄

[deep badger]

nice

[floral badger]

Oh my.. thats so beautiful

Im gonna get one thx :3

[cyan beacon]

anyone know?

[gentle mulch]

U can’t it’ll just say neutral and do nothing

[cyan beacon]

alright thanks!

[gentle mulch]

No problem

[kind tulip]

Found this in the nms coordinate exchange! Figured someone else might like it too 🙂

[crimson needle]

Not my find. Looks really cool, isnt that big thou

[copper yoke]

Euclid, not very friendly but that face 😆

[deep badger]

new system, more butterflies (euclid)

i love how they don't mind being under water

[clever briar]

Any chance you still have one!?

[heavy mirage]

The wings are beautiful, I want them

[fringe plinth]

I can never find the underground animals on the planets.... what am i doing wrong?

[deep badger]

the odds of finding them is always poor, just comes down to luck honestly, and sometimes they'll come above ground for scanning, but going through the caves often yields little

[dawn sable]

@fringe plinth Find a structure onplanet that has cave entrance/s <100u away. (The cave entrances don't need to be at NPC structures, they just tend to be easier to find there because many structures cut away some terrain to make the ground theyre on level.) Place a Save Beacon near the caves. Pulse for 1s or so out to space, then pulse back towards your beacon, land, and wait for creatures to spawn in - if the underground creatures arent among the first to spawn in, repeat.

[fringe plinth]

Ok thank you 🙂

I keep seeing long tracks of dirt on my ice planet.... could this be worms?

[dawn sable]

The first creatures to spawn in usually arent in your direct line of sight, so dont stare at the cave entrances after you land and exit the ship, better to slowly turn in circles checking your visor 90 degree intervals for fauna so you know when theyve spawned in.

No, pretty sure the leading theory is those were a failed attempt to procgen rivers, however because they tend to cut into the terrain to the same average depth, and flattish terrain near sea level is super rare, they don't quite work lol.

[foggy brook]

Make sure you are using actual caves as well, those large tunnels with no stalactites or stalagmites don't count as caves.

[deep badger]

i'll have to try that technique myself, been skipping planets with rare cave species since they're otherwise to time intensive

[foggy brook]

Keep in mind, you are what the fauna spawns for. It doesn't exist until your presence triggers it. So if the cave system is large, you can simply move ever deeper into the caves to trigger more fauna to spawn in your area. No underground creatures? Keep going

[dawn sable]

@foggy brook The problem with that is the game seems to show no preference for spawning fauna inside the caves when you're underground - I thought that finding a tunnel with 50u of terrain above it, manually saving there, and reloading would surely work, at least 10% of the time, but nope, >95% of the time all fauna spawned aboveground, including f***ing birds. Birds!&?!%??

[floral badger]

Hey does anyone have a cute turtle egg? If you do can i get one? :)

[heavy mirage]

Afaik they cannot be tamed

[floral badger]

Yeah i checked it myself that you cant :( , just hoping there would be a type that i do not know thats tamable

[heavy mirage]

You might have better luck with somebody who managed to breed something that looks close to a turtle 😅

[floral badger]

Tru

[heavy mirage]

Anyone here documented body part changes/mutations with flying sandworm?

Oh actually it seems I can still toy with mutations even with a ready to hatch egg and just reload save if I am not satisifed. Cool.

[vale valley]

anyone have robo antelope egg?

[heavy mirage]

Honestly not sure which one is the antelope lol

Both are ready to induce eggs though if you want

[vale valley]

riho riho

yeah thats the one,can i trade for another egg?

[heavy mirage]

Sure thing, surprise me with any egg!

[vale valley]

dm me your code im gonna join u

[heavy mirage]

Oh but I am just gonna induce an egg for riho-riho, sooo 24 hrs till hatching if you dont mind?

[vale valley]

its fine

[heavy mirage]

721V-MH3F-KTTXG

Meet u at space station

Oh wait

There is no space station here, lol just my freighter

[vale valley]

sure thing

god damnit i spawn with my radiant pillar

[heavy mirage]

lol

and in an unchartered system to boot

[copper yoke]

First time I've encountered robotic life on a Paradise planet. Euclid.

[heavy mirage]

Congrats! Took me some time looking for them too!

[vale valley]

woah thats look cool

[heavy mirage]

I cant wait to mutate the hell out of them too, excited to hatch some more of these

[copper yoke]

I usually find them on tox and radioactive planets. There was only one other variation, same head but triple disc backs and they were the only animals on the planet. Pretty cool, I've been seeing how far away I can get from galactic core and I feel like I'm finding more unique combos than I was but may be coincidence.

[heavy mirage]

Mine are both from radioactive. I honestly wish mine were from a Paradise too, but I just took them home anyway

[copper yoke]

If you're in Euclid, you can go snag one from that planet, I included glyphs. 🙂

[floral badger]

Hey if anyone got a cute pet lmk :))

[vale valley]

is this count as cute?

[heavy mirage]

Not sure if this is cute but is pink? (or purple lol)

[heavy mirage]

Definitely cute and rocking the hairstyle lol

[floral badger]

:00 yesh but i already got a similar but chunky version

Imma show my collection when im in the gane

Game*

[heavy mirage]

Anyone of you got an airless planet?

I need to make my zergling lay an egg

[floral badger]

Idk robot seems uninteresting to me lel sry

[heavy mirage]

No worries lol

[tame kite]

What does this mean?

[floral badger]

Try it

[tame kite]

Also don’t ask why my screen is just black and red. Idk either, it just started happening a bit ago while I was in an outpost.

[heavy mirage]

Its another term for pulling its innards out

[tame kite]

…

[heavy mirage]

Kidding, it just harvests whatever produce that creature makes

[floral badger]

Maybe planet enviroment

[heavy mirage]

Most likely a chromatic planet

[tame kite]

Maybe, but it wasn’t like that when I first landed

[tame kite]

What does that mean

[floral badger]

A type of planet

[heavy mirage]

Planet's atmosphere has a different color, when you land you get that weird color

Sometimes monochrome, sometimes with a hint of other colors

[tame kite]

Well… ig I now have a weird technological ball as a companion

This is what it looks like without the weird planet stuff

[copper yoke]

Full grown but I can't seem to get it any smaller than this. Still cute, I think.

[heavy mirage]

Cute diplo!

[tame kite]

That reminds me I need to adopt one of the really cool diplos from my home planet

[vale valley]

@heavy mirage got your airless planet?

[floral badger]

Do be cute

[tame kite]

I just found a wolf thing…

[deep badger]

if you're in Euclid

[tame kite]

It’s name is chrono apparently

I’m gonna keep it

That’s a cool name

[vale valley]

and if you are in eissentam

[heavy mirage]

Thank you! I actually found one at NMSCE

I wonder if the crap still smells in an airless planet though

[deep badger]

i had a system with 3 of them, all surrounding 1 lone normal planet

[heavy mirage]

That one lone planet sucked all the life out of the others

[deep badger]

if only, can't find it now but I don't recall it doing that well itself

also I lie, I found it in about 5s

[heavy mirage]

I find it fun to traverse these airless planets. Been a while since I stepped on one. The shove+rocket boots dash feels so satisfying and fast

[heavy mirage]

Yep that planet sucked them dry

[deep badger]

theres one planet like that in the system my freighter is parked at, named the "Thunderdome" just because it's fun to fight sentinels on a low atmosphere planet, with infinite one of those orbs there to loot when the fights done

and it only has 7 species on it, definitely worth it

[heavy mirage]

Excited to experiment on these

[copper yoke]

Dude has a farm on its back. Euclid

[floral badger]

@vale valley

[vale valley]

heh

you definitely like cute one

cus most of them are

[floral badger]

my favourite one

[floral badger]

lmaoo

some of them arent cute, theyre just funny

like the dinosaur

for some reason it really likes to dance

and i named one fartoholic cause it kept farting blue clouds lmao

[deep badger]

i saw someone at the anomaly who had a trex like that, so happy swinging its entire body to wave

[heavy mirage]

The t-rex does dance lol that's why I love it

[floral badger]

hehe

[deep badger]

yes

they're amazing

[floral badger]

agree

[deep badger]

hard to disagree with tangible facts

[vale valley]

weird dude

[floral badger]

very weird dude

[deep badger]

i may be obsessed with the butterflies, so here's the newest member to my gang (colored with nipnip buds for those wondering)

[spark jay]

Any1 want a flying beetle egg if so dm me

[copper yoke]

I have that in pink, I love how the antennae look like leaves; super cute.

[obtuse stirrup]

do you have the coordinates of where i can get that? or can i trade you something for an egg?

[floral badger]

I found it on nmsce reddit

Theres a lot of good petto there

Just scroll down and ye gonna find it

[obtuse stirrup]

aight thank you

[copper yoke]

Does anyone have a sentinel dog egg, I wanna have full set

[vale valley]

quad egg?yeah i think i have it

[fiery quarry]

Nice

[vale valley]

can you join me?

[fiery quarry]

I’m busy till 6pm GMT+2

[vale valley]

oh its fine then,im still gonna online like 10 more hours

[fiery quarry]

Nice

I’ll dm you when I’m free

[vale valley]

👍

[deep badger]

so more butterflies, but also balls (euclid)

[heavy mirage]

I will name him Ptheven

[spark jay]

Any 1 want a free beetle egg ready to hatch?

[split ibex]

I found a pet

[charred tiger]

Nice stegoceratops

[dry jolt]

Gotta go catch a pokeball xD

[crimson needle]

I chased this guy for 13 minutes straight. He just glows like that normally.

[crimson needle]

This rex is alpha, look at that arm length.

Anyone got a giant sandworm egg I could trade for

Not the expedition one but save edited ones

[obtuse stirrup]

anybody got a worm egg or sentinel dog egg to hook me up with? willing to trade anything

[minor sandal]

I do

[obtuse stirrup]

friend code?

[obtuse stirrup]

anybody got a worm egg or sentinel dog egg? willing to trade anything, in normal mode

[fading gull]

What’s this channel for?

[crisp ether]

Gek-zilla

[copper fog]

Anyone gotta dragon/bird

[floral badger]

For ingame petto showcase

[near oriole]

Are those eggs duped?

[heavy mirage]

Nope, made all my animals lay them

[near oriole]

I have both on normal mode

[near oriole]

Ok cool, no judgement, but some folks aren't aware duped companion eggs dont work

[vale valley]

indeed

[heavy mirage]

No worries, I found out they do get messed up when duped. Attempted them before due to curiosity 😅

[vale valley]

we do have limit how many eggs we can have isnt it

[near oriole]

I seem to recall something like that, don't remember any details though

[heavy mirage]

I think there is, probably read somewhere to like 6 eggs in inventory and your companions will not lay one? Not sure...

[vale valley]

i believe you can get 18 eggs max

after that you cant lay eggs anymore

personally i find the limit pretty annoying,cus i cant just keep stocking up eggs incase someone want it

but well,18 already alot i guess

[heavy mirage]

Same. I wanna store lots of them

[vale valley]

like few days ago someone ask me for sandworm egg,guess how many they want? 5 eggs

😂

[heavy mirage]

Oh for the gene splitter, I keep getting the same results of mutations regardless of material and dosage on my t-rex, is that normal?

I would be surprised if we get a nursery/hatchery related updated lol

[vale valley]

i havent do much with squencer. but i feel some pet cant be modified

have you tried splicing quad egg?

[heavy mirage]

Yeah the zergling/space horror, helios, I didn't have luck with any modifications for them aside from behavior

[vale valley]

its doesnt do anything for me

[heavy mirage]

The sand worm, I haven't tested extensively yet, but I saw some before having issues that no matter what they feed, they just get same results

I really wanted to modify my t-rex but it gives me a mutation that I do not like and I just get same results. I will try to have it lay another egg and then see if mutations are tied to the egg

[vale valley]

i have trex too,but i dont get her normal way. im gonna try splicing it when she lay egg

let see what we can do

[fading gull]

Ayo what

[crimson needle]

Is it possible to gift eggs if so how

[deep badger]

whenever a player is in close range to you, using the 'quick transfer' option, where you normally go to quickly send items to different inventory tabs, will also include those players, and you can chose to send items from your normal inventory window to theirs

companion eggs included, where some players do go to the anomaly just to slip eggs into peoples pockets

"Ah yes traveler, I have seen your future"

[deep badger]

2nd ball, of eyeballs (euclid)

[pseudo talon]

What is the quickest way to make my companion colossal sized? Materials are not an issue

[fiery quarry]

Gold I believe

Use 100% dose several times

I believe it was 22 for me

[worldly yacht]

Different companions seem to have hard limits though, unless theres something Im missing. Ive been pumping my dragonfly's size but it wont pass 3m

[keen mortar]

how big can those butterflies go?

[deep badger]

they cap out at 3m height in the info tab, which gives them this size

[deep badger]

also this micro-diplo with a snazzy hat (euclid)

[deep badger]

they're small, that is all

[floral badger]

Omaigod so cuteee

Im yoinking one later

Thx :))

[sick shell]

What does you have it. I have one like that too

I want it bigger though

[golden gulch]

I think it's as big as the egg sequencer could make it but I haven't tried a new egg in a while

[sick shell]

Nice

I had found one so i tamed it as well

[golden gulch]

The perspective on that other pic is a little misleading

[sick shell]

I am looking for a flying one...that i can tame

But they are SSSR

[golden gulch]

I'm debating getting 1 of those 6 legged dogs. I only have a couple spots left

[sick shell]

I want TORUK MAKTO

😭

Toruk makto

[golden gulch]

Like this?

[golden gulch]

💪

[sick shell]

I am so jealous....i want one

What planet... Please tell me

And how you got it

[golden gulch]

The flying ones like these have to be modded in. Not sure who gave me the egg but I can get you one from it

[sick shell]

[golden gulch]

Let me get to a safe spot on this endless curious deposit search and I'll switch over to that save and drop you an egg

[sick shell]

I am on survival... So that's why i asked you for a planet cords

[golden gulch]

Oooooh right sorry

[vapid pivot]

@golden gulch Unapproved Discord invite

[golden gulch]

Oof sorry Gunter

[vale valley]

big girl

[tribal coral]

Dont forget the things behind his head. For lore and visual accuracy

[sick shell]

can you give me the egg....

[tribal coral]

dont have the mod or egg sadly (ps4)

i also had same idea some time ago to get bird egg looking like toruk

[solid sentinel]

Hand it over

[clever briar]

Wow does anyone have an egg for this!?

[vale valley]

sure

[tribal coral]

Mod

[clever briar]

🥲I’m on Xbox

[solid sentinel]

I can have an egg?

[vale valley]

yeah if you can online rn

[solid sentinel]

Should I join you?

[vale valley]

i can join u

[solid sentinel]

Ok

Did you friend me?

[tribal coral]

Im on ps4 🥲

[vale valley]

nope,dm me your code

[solid sentinel]

K

[vale valley]

im coming,wait me at the station

@solid sentinel enjoy !

[solid sentinel]

Thanks and what are the other ones?

[vale valley]

sandworm,quad,robo antelope,robo dog,jellyfish

[solid sentinel]

OMG

THANK YOU SO MUCH

[vale valley]

also whispering horror too iirc

yw

also dont worry my eggs not duped so its hatchable

[mild geyser]

Pretty much a triceratops or whatever it's called in euclid

[urban lava]

Does anyone know what the native climate is for the "Pitch Black" creature? Can't induce an egg until I find what system they are from.

[foggy brook]

Tells you in the register

[dry jolt]

A truly extraterrestial creature xD

[median solstice]

Airless planets

[latent quest]

Any tips on finding fast flying companions?

Is the Helios egg fast enough?

And can you make companions faster/change traits?

[dawn sable]

@latent quest Get a small flying beetle, increase its size to ~6.0-6.5m. Between the fact they get faster when you upsize em, which is rare, and that they fly close to the ground, theyre the most useful option

[latent quest]

Yeah I guess but I hate the look of the beetle

Ill try it but eh

If the Helios ehh is good enough I’ll stick with it, and can someone explain the egg sequencer?

[latent quest]

Also this

[latent quest]

I have no idea how to upsize

Or use any part of the egg sequencer

[latent quest]

For me one of the important parts of the companions is the looks

[wicked ledge]

You can put gold in the size tab of the egg sequencer, it’s probably the easiest ingredient to get to make it bigger

[latent quest]

Oh ok

[wicked ledge]

Basically on the space anomaly, the egg sequencer has the input where you put the egg and four characteristic slot things where you can put in various materials and change those characteristics

[latent quest]

How do control how much bigger it gets?

[wicked ledge]

Yeah there’s a ton of different materials that can be used with different effects so for upsizing growth you could use gold or actived copper/emeril/etc

There’s a “stack size” for the ingredients that you can either meet or half or whichever, highly recommend just skimming through this page and the table: https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Egg_Sequencer_-_Growth_Hormone

Kind of a lot to keep track of 😅

[latent quest]

Ah ok

Pretty complicated

Are bird type companions fast?

[dawn sable]

@latent quest A 100% dose for upsizing will increase by 0.5m

[latent quest]

Idk what 100% dose is but ok

Also any tips on finding flying animals

Are there coloured systems that makes it easier

Or ways to figure out what has more types of flying animals

[dawn sable]

Nope

[latent quest]

Oh

I guess I’ll warp a lot and try to find a phoenix type creature

Idk what I’ll end up with

Hope it’s cool and good

Can you change traits on companions?

[wicked ledge]

Like personality traits?

There’s size, color, personality, and some gene splitter thing I haven’t really messed around with yet

[latent quest]

Oh ok

[dawn sable]

@latent quest You'llneed a mod to tame a bird

[latent quest]

Oh

I thought there were tamalble things that look like birds

[latent quest]

I’ve seen people use them

https://youtu.be/CQqHZjYU-OM

Like this

In the thumbnail

[dawn sable]

That's a butterfly

[latent quest]

Oh

Well either way I’m gonna try and get it

Can you merge different pet types to change appeareance?

[deep badger]

Each species is made of particular parts, like the butterflies can have 6 sets of wings or 4, the back wings could have long ribbons or not, and when you use the dna sequencer the randomize this it is those parts that get shuffled, you can't do something like give them bird wings since that part belongs to a different creature type

[latent quest]

Oh ok

Good to know

I wish I could take birds

Or griffins

[deep badger]

Some random person gave me an egg of one on the nexus and it seems to be working fine, though I haven't personally tried to get an egg from it yet, but some of the creatures you can't interact with do have functional code to be pets, some don't but those that do can have their eggs traded without either player needing a mod

[latent quest]

Are dragons a real type of pet or just modded?

I’ve seen people getting them

Idk if they’re real

They seem scaled

[deep badger]

They're a particular combination of the high flying birds, they're naturally large and fast but require a mod and skill to tame, but they are one of the species that seems fully functional and eggs can be freely traded

Let me see if I can get the picture of some that I've found

[latent quest]

Oh

So Mods :(

I wish they would let you take birds

I guess I’ll just get a butterfly

[deep badger]

#nms-fauna message

[latent quest]

Those are sick

Now I rly want one

But I don’t wanna mod

Whatever

Ima get a butterly

Closest I can get

Hopefully one will look like a dragon

[deep badger]

The butterflies are amazing to, easier to ride, and can get big to, feel free to search this channel for images of them

[wicked ledge]

I love my butterflies, favorite type of creature

[deep badger]

#nms-fauna message

[latent quest]

Ok I’ll take a look

I’m rly new to this so I have no idea

Never even ridden a pet before

What’re your tips for finding butterflies/ any animal?

Do you just keep warping and check each planet or look for specific planets?

[latent quest]

That is amazing

[wicked ledge]

they’ve spawned in a few different types of planets for me, like desert “barren” planets and the hot rainy planets, so I’d say keep warping and exploring

[latent quest]

Oh ok

Also can robotic pets fly

[wicked ledge]

I’m curious about that too, I’ve only seen one planet where the regular four legged ones spawn but lost track of it :/ anyone know what planet types they spawn on?

[latent quest]

I’m pretty sure it’s in reality glitches

And abandoned systems

[deep badger]

There is only one type of robot life, the antelope, so no flying ones there, but as for butterflies I've even seen them on frozen worlds, but since I like to catalog species I find them occasionally, they aren't common but not incredibly rare

[latent quest]

Oh ok good to know, hope I can find a nice one!

Also how do you customize Colors?

[wicked ledge]

Same way as modifying size! There’s a wiki page on all the colors you can get with particular materials too, but it’s fun to experiment with

[latent quest]

Nice, I’ll look into that

[wicked ledge]

This is what I got from using geodesite

Results can vary with species but generally specific materials make specific colors

[dawn sable]

Butterflies are one of the odd ones out, along with bonecats and robofauna

The rest of the tameable pets get generally the same colours from same items.

[deep badger]

So I decided to actually get clips of the differences between a pure flyer and a butterfly, they're very different, and I actually had luck getting back on the bird unlike usual, normally it is much harder but the butterfly is always easy to get back to

also I think the bird could get bigger, don't know honestly, but the butterfly is maxed size

[copper yoke]

Sorry to egg beg but I was having issues completing the expedition and was wondering if anyone had a spare jellyfish egg? I don't have previous expedition pets but can trade regular ones or mould or geknip....idk what people like lol >.<

Also, I have a lot of planets with butterflies in Euclid, if people want glyphs, most if not all on Paradise planets.

[floral badger]

@copper yoke sure, i can trade that for the cutest pet u have :)

[copper yoke]

Ty! Let me check eggs!

[floral badger]

Okei

@copper yoke whats your friend code?

[copper yoke]

Took forever to load into anomaly lol. If I can find it. I've never used them, usually play with irl people, sec

[copper yoke]

Euclid, mushroom crabs and whatever that is.

[floral badger]

Lmaoo

[latent quest]

What materials change Colors of companions?

[foggy brook]

All of them

The better question would be what changes to specific colors

Check the pins here, there are some handy charts

[dawn sable]

@deep badger I don't know if this is outdated, but even if it is, it should give a pretty gokd idea of how large various pets can get - the grey parts are pet limits, T1 to 5 are the extremes that you can find wild fauna at.

Here are the colours for 14 of the 65 food groups.

[crimson needle]

Where do i get thisss

[dawn sable]

@crimson needle I'm sure someone around here has the time tk hand over an egg - try asking in #nms-lfg-or-trades as well

[crimson needle]

Egg?

[copper yoke]

For the bird pet. I believe that is a mod from PC but if someone has one, they can get you an egg from it to hatch yourself.

[quiet smelt]

I think by using mods which allow you to add these creatures as companions. You need then to build some stuff to get to them as they rarely/never come to land though.

Also that shows us another reason to overhaul at least flying creatures.

[wicked ledge]

[frigid gale]

It would be nice if there was a long range stunner attachment for the multitool for capturing high altitude flying creatures

that could bring them down without killing them

[median solstice]

May i trade a egg?

[split ibex]

what kind of fauna is this

[latent quest]

Woah

I found a robotic animal first try

Are they supposed to be this vast

Fast

They travel at like 8 units per sec

How do I customize more appearance

All I can customize is the chest

Oh now my companions faster

[supple walrus]

Should I hatch the egg I got from the expedition rightaway?

or is there a right way of doing it?

[latent quest]

Just hatch

In inventory

I can’t find a single butterfly:(

[supple walrus]

I shouldn't modify it with sequencer?

[latent quest]

I would hatch it first

Then modify it’s eggs

[latent quest]

If you modify

You might mess up or lose its original look

[supple walrus]

we all get the same jelly fish?

[latent quest]

Yes

[latent quest]

How rare are butterflies

I found one

It’s pink

[foggy brook]

Nice

[latent quest]

Why is it’s boost so slow

[foggy brook]

Dunno why, just is

[latent quest]

Oh

I did it

I tamed it

And now it’s fast

how can I change its color

To a blusih purple

Maybe some gray

And is that small enough to increase size

If I increase size will it get faster

[bronze roost]

is there a player market for pets? like if i started breeding stuff would people buy it?

[deep badger]

I don't recall if increasing it's size made it faster, you can compare yours speed to the one in the video I posted to get an idea, as for color there was mention that they dye differently than other species so I'm actually going to check that out myself

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/nupxvw/long_butterfly_coloration_egg_sequencer_color/

This is what I am looking through now

The red ones look real nice but now I'm going to need some hexite myself...

As for size, if the "height" stat is less than 3 you can, and each round at the dna sequencer with 100% dose will raise it by .5m until at max

[supple walrus]

i can't figure out why my teleport keeps dropping me beneath my base

[bronze roost]

if your base computer is clipping into something it will do that

[supple walrus]

it is literally on the floor 😒

stupid base computer

[latent quest]

How to change body parts of a butterfly?

[latent quest]

Yeah I found a rly nice chart

Cobalt makes a nice blue-purple

[solid junco]

Did my first egg modification today after getting the game a few days ago super excited

Said it has the potential of being very large and gentle

Gonna be one of these boyos

Also went and grabbed a giant beetle

[latent quest]

How many doses of gold do I give to max out the size

And what do I give to make my pet gentle?

And helpful?

[solid junco]

Not an expert here but I used cadmium and that’s what gave me the possible gentle

[latent quest]

Possible gentle..?

[solid junco]

Well when you get your egg back from the incubator it gives you the most likely things. But I’d say you should probably look at the wiki if you’re that unsure. They have a lot of charts with the percentages

[latent quest]

Oh ok

I’ll check that out

Storm crystals seem best

Will an 100% dose make it max size

3m

Or will I need to make more eggs and redo the process until I got max size

Or make it like 300%

[wicked ledge]

The 100% dose iirc is just how much you can make it grow in one go. So you’ll probably need to do multiple generations of 100% doses

[latent quest]

Oh

[wicked ledge]

What size is your butterfly?

[latent quest]

Like a tad bit bigger then a colossus wheel

[latent quest]

Here

I might have to do multiple

That’s gonna take weeks

Or days

Idk

[wicked ledge]

the main thing is, 3m is their max size and I’m not sure how much they grow each time but I believe the egg sequencer should suggest when you go to put in the ingredients “inherited” or “increasing” meaning either it won’t change or it’ll grow.
I haven’t gotten mine to max size so idk for sure but that’s about it. Just gotta keep plugging and using the egg of each one to keep growing

[latent quest]

Ah ok, also if I change the Color of the first one will the others change too?

[latent quest]

I wanna change it to blue

So I’d wanna do it beforehand

And do I just put enough of the material so the dose is 100% for colouring

[wicked ledge]

Yeah you can only do 100% dose. It’ll automatically fill to the max it can accept when you go to put the ingredient in.
For coloring you should only need one of the material

[latent quest]

Yeah I saw a Chart and cobalt will work so ima use it

Thx

Ima have to wait a while though

Might change system clock

[deep badger]

And just to put it here, if you want to max out the creatures size just keep putting the egg into the sequencer until it says inherited instead of increasing, and whatever you do to the egg will stick around no matter how many times you put it through the machine so you can modify color, size, and all 3 personally parts with one egg

[slow dew]

How does the aging work in NMS. 🤔🤔

[deep badger]

As far as I'm aware the only part that matters is the first 24h before they can lay eggs, anything beyond that is flavor text

[copper yoke]

I've adopted "infant" animals that took longer than 24 to be egg ready, So I'm not really sure.

[latent quest]

Oh I can redo the egg? That’s nice

I’m 100% gonna do that

I might change my system setting cause I can’t wait at all lol

[deep badger]

the egg can be put into the thing as many times as you like, but the information on the eggs tooltip will only relate to the changes between the last step and current one

[latent quest]

So if it says overload or inherited I should stop?

[latent quest]

What should o put for gentleness?

And helpfulness?

[deep badger]

i had some notes here about those, let me see what I settled on...

storm crystals for gentleness, though there are some alternatives if you haven't been to many hazardous planets

you can use a lot of carbon or copper for helpfulness, though from my note I had magnetized ferrite since you only need 60 for a full dose

and yeah, if it says inherited on size then you're at the cap

[worldly yacht]

You can pump the same egg with growth materials and it will come out as big as you pumped it. Keep adding mats until it says "inherited"

[tranquil phoenix]

do we have a table here somewhere that shows what color the pet will obtain with different elements?

[deep badger]

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/lokupo/color_guide7080_but_im_done/

this is one of the references I use that has a lot of items, though not all

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/londa5/updated_egg_sequencer_dye_colours_100_dose_not/

[tranquil phoenix]

thanks

[deep badger]

and here are some more

plus the butterflies I linked earlier since they dye differently

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/londa5/updated_egg_sequencer_dye_colours_100_dose_not/

and lastly for robots

[tranquil phoenix]

this is a robot, yes?

[deep badger]

that's "just" an exotic fauna, the robots are explicitly that antelope like quadruped

[tranquil phoenix]

ahh i see

[deep badger]

not sure if they can be changed color wise

i've never tried personally

[tranquil phoenix]

alright, gotta try it

hope it looks beautiful

[latent quest]

Oh ok I’ll use that

[latent quest]

Aight I’ll do that

[latent quest]

When it says inherited I should put less mats or keep it at inherited?

[worldly yacht]

I dont think it will go beyond inherited. Seems to be the ceiling.

[latent quest]

Should I use a storm crystal

[latent quest]

So when it says “inherited” don’t add more or less?

[deep badger]

think of the egg you're putting in as the 'parent' and if the 'child' egg you get out has inherited traits, it means nothing will change with what you put in, so you're good

and yes, storm crystals, hard as they are to get, are good for making pets larger and gentle

[latent quest]

So if I leave it at inherited nothing will change after that, that’s when I stop pumping it right?

Should I still put the mats in though? But after that stop making it larger

[deep badger]

yep, if it says it'll change then go for it, but if inherited you're good

[latent quest]

K

[deep badger]

also, behold, both underground species, together, on the surface

[latent quest]

I still need to put that mat in for inherited

[latent quest]

I’ve seen those

Wondered what they are

[deep badger]

the plant thing is on the right, though it's hard to see against the grey

[latent quest]

Yeah

[deep badger]

and no, if it says inherited the item will do nothing, think if the materials going in as turning a dial, it's still there even if you don't move it

[latent quest]

Oh ok

Good to know

[latent quest]

How can I make my pet larger then 3.0m?

[latent quest]

Nvm

It’s pretty big

The parent is the pink one

These good stats?

[latent quest]

Or should it be aggressive

[floral badger]

Stats matter for some people? I thought you only look for appearance for pets

[deep badger]

3m is the maximum size for that type, and while their traits change how they act it isn't super important

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Egg_Sequencer_-_Neural_Calibrator

You can read the specifics here, but the biggest thing you'll notice is how some behaviors have your pet stick close vs wandering far, for butterflies it doesn't matter much but for land creatures you want to ride making them to adventurous will leave you chasing them from time to time

[wicked ledge]

It’s pretty neat! Havent really bothered much with behaviors in egg sequencing, but a more independent one might be nice for lower maintenance (not that there’s much to begin with)

[latent quest]

Yeah but idk if some stats matter like how fast it can go etc

[latent quest]

Yeah ok I’ll keep that in mind

[latent quest]

I was rly hoping there’d be a glitch

Cause I want a giant like dragon sized butterfly

But I mean it’s good ig

But if there was a way I’d be rly happy

And how can you make butterlifes fly faster?

That a trait? Or is it rng?

[latent quest]

https://youtu.be/iP_IQmojK50

Like this

It prob mods though

I’m not sure

[wicked ledge]

I don’t know for certain but I feel like speed is dependent on the species/type of animal, since the butterflies I’ve had have been the same speed as far as I can tell. As for making it bigger past the maximum, maybe save editing? Never tried that before but it probably works on companions

There are mods to tame the purely-flying fauna like the dragons and birds

[latent quest]

Ok

Does anyone have a dragon/bird egg they could lend me?

I’d be happy to share any of my eggs that I’ve got for one

Or a void egg

[latent quest]

Oh ok I don’t wanna save edit so I’ll stick to my butterfly

[floral badger]

Owh i see

[dawn sable]

@latent quest Speed is dependent on creature type and size. For most fauna, the larger you make them, the slower they go. Notable exceptions to this rule are flying beetles and robotic fauna, so taming either of those at the smallest size you can find and then resequencing them to the maximum yields the fastest air and ground pets in the game.

[latent quest]

What about butterflies

Mine is faster and bigger

I think

It seems faster

[dawn sable]

@latent quest Iirc, butterfly speed scales upward with size, but to a much lesser degree than with beetles.

[latent quest]

Oh ok

Atleast it’s faster

[dawn sable]

Flying beetles are the ideal pet to use for scouting, hands-down the fastest way to find hotspots and Curious Deposits. 🙂

[latent quest]

Yeah ig

I might get one

But idk

I could just use my nomad

It’s maxed

Rly fast

I’ll check it out

I’ve seen beetles before

I don’t rly like them

[dawn sable]

The difference is you cannot use your visor while riding the Nomad, you have to repeatedly stop and get out to check your survey device. 😉

[latent quest]

Oh yeah

Good point

Butterflies still one of the faves tho

Is the Helios egg even useful

The companion doesn’t do anything except look cool

[wicked ledge]

I found some really neat beetles but lost track of them. They were in an uncharted system and I forgot to put a base there :((

[latent quest]

:((

I keep on forgetting to put bases, just recently I started putting more

I hope it doesn’t take me hours to find a beetle like last time

I HATED

That

[deep badger]

Eeh, beetles, I don't like them given how often they fly into the ground for me, but the robot pets are really nice

[latent quest]

well maybe beetles are more common

[latent quest]

Yeah

I agree

I like soaring above the air

Robotic pets are speedy ones tho

[wicked ledge]

For sure. Finally my chromatic metal can do something lol. I did finally find a planet with robotic fauna and MAN those guys are fast. I do wish some flew

[latent quest]

Haven’t modified my egg yet

Gotta do that

[latent quest]

What does chromatic metal do with them?

Can you feed them with it?

[wicked ledge]

Oh no I meant for base building

[latent quest]

Ah ok

[wicked ledge]

It’d be nice if I could though. I never have any cobalt for batteries lol

[latent quest]

Next on my list is my robot and then idk

[latent quest]

Same

I’m just draining space stations now

Taking their whole stock

[deep badger]

For robots though I would suggest you make them less independent, otherwise you will have your mount a mile away "scouting ahead" while you're trying to get back on

[latent quest]

Yeah

Ima make em helpful, devoted, and gentle

That’s how I like my traits imo

[deep badger]

Moda-moda only does this most of the time

[latent quest]

Idk about aggressive

Might get a gigantic cheetah or something for combat

[dawn sable]

@deep badger If you reduce a max sized beetle to 6.4m or less, it pretty much never flies into the ground.

[latent quest]

Oh

Good to know

[deep badger]

I must have been riding one of the larger ones then, and first impressions were, poor

[dawn sable]

As for independence, I circumvent the issue entirely, if I want to ride a pet I have out, I de-summon and re-summon it, lol.

[deep badger]

To much effort for me personally

[dawn sable]

I like to kill things, overly loyal pets just get in the way of doing that far too often.

[wicked ledge]

I have my pet out when I’m building and then I find out it’s like 30 feet underground somehow

They do kind of get in the way of scanning stuff too

[deep badger]

Riding moda-moda past caves is always an amusing time

[wicked ledge]

What kind of creature are they? besides the kind that gets lodged in the terrain lol

[deep badger]

Max size robot antelope

#nms-fauna message

Not a fan of linking post but it's about all I can do at the moment

[wicked ledge]

Niiiice, that looks sick! do you happen to know what number size they get to?

[deep badger]

I'll get back to you on that, but iirc someone tagged me here with a chart showing that, checking that now

#nms-fauna message

I don't see them on that list, but I'll get back to you on it when I can

[wicked ledge]

Thank you! Is it the same as Antelope on the list? Or is that another type? Still quite useful, I want to fill my companion register with max size animals

[deep badger]

No clue

[wicked ledge]

Well i’ll find out eventually with a few generations, thanks!

[deep badger]

Whichever comes first, though a photo op with Moda is going to happen

[dawn sable]

@wicked ledge If I had to guess, I'd say 3.0m, the game files refer to them as RobotAntelope.

[deep badger]

behold, Moda-moda the tall, and their companion, CP5 the small, and they're only 2.5m* tall

issue when they get this big though, this is your view when scanning

[deep badger]

so yeah, beetles are nice, but they still love doing the bobbing and weaving more than I like

[obtuse bloom]

is there some way to determine the speed of companions or a way to breed in faster running/flying speed?

[median solstice]

No unfortunately

[earnest mortar]

Can't find an exotic ship. But found this fellow while looking. 😆

[spice jungle]

What galaxy and code

[crimson delta]

Very big Gek next to his modern day counterpart

[solid junco]

I’m new, you can have gek pets?

[foggy brook]

Yep

[deep badger]

strongest modern gek vs average first spawn

[crimson needle]

That little guy is special, I want one, where did you find him?

[hollow jay]

are those actually a type of gek?

[crimson needle]

No they have a gek like head

[hollow jay]

ok

[foggy brook]

Protogek is their name

Soooo

[hollow jay]

cool

[foggy brook]

No in game connection mentioned, gotta think it's just a chuckle by hg

[crimson needle]

The bipedal fauna with arms are called "Mogara" they can have heads like bears, rats, gek, or wtf.

[foggy brook]

Blah blah, those are the only ones that give protogek milk

They protogek

That came off dismissive, it was meant lightly - no offense intended at all

[wicked ledge]

googles the moral implications of making them pets

I’ve never found a protogek though. Seen very few bipedal ones to begin with across many many planets

tiny blob friend from a few days ago love these guys hoppin around

[floral badger]

Heyo can i get glyph to this flying behemoth? :)

[crimson delta]

Protogek

[dawn sable]

@floral badger It's one of my test tube freaks, cannot occur in the wild.

[floral badger]

Ah i see

[fiery quarry]

Do you have egg?

Or portal cords

[lament iron]

Can anyone have or can help me create a crocodile with a fin on the back and longs legs? The entity was today at my dreams as a Pet Dog, and i want to keep him in my memory. He should be dog sized

[fiery quarry]

Anyone got a gek teddy bear creature?

[split carbon]

there've been some posted in this channel before. but you may be able to do a Discord search for protogeks in our #explorers-archive channel where members post glyph coordinates. that is, if you've got 16 glyphs to portal to grab one in the wild

[fiery quarry]

Thanks!

I got the idea from the latest one but it didn’t have glyphs

[split carbon]

ooh got ya. if you do find a location anywhere, here or in NMS Coordinates Exchange, you may also be able to get a "ride" from someone, here or in #nms-lfg-or-trades or with the PanGalactic StarCabs Discord where they also offer a ride. just ideas for alternative ways ofc. hopefully someone here gets back if they have an adorable protogek.

and don't hesitate to check #nms-questions if you need guidance for getting your 16 glyphs.

[fiery quarry]

Ah

I have my glyphs

But can’t I just use glyphs to get there?

[split carbon]

ooh sorry i misunderstood! that's perfect!

[fiery quarry]

Lol

[split carbon]

i'll be on the lookout for locations. also, sometimes some locations posted are in other galaxies you haven't been to. so for that, you may also want a ride to said galaxies. i had to do that for a protogek creature before.

[fiery quarry]

Thanks

[fiery quarry]

Do you have egg or portal glyphs?

[deep badger]

someone looking for a gek teddy bear? (in euclid)

(i know i've seen some small ones, but can't find any photos yet)

here's one

[copper yoke]

I'm really starting to think my game is broken lol. So I had a pet that wouldn't shrink and I grew it instead. I took an egg from the giant one and it still won't shrink. No matter what I put in there, it just says "inherited." I have the chart, I've tried the things that should make it smaller but the dang thing is stuck "very large." Has this happened to anyone else?

Maybe a text bug, should I just try processing it anyway? Not sure but I want a tiny one >.<

[fiery quarry]

Maybe reload?

[copper yoke]

Yeah, I've done everything short of a reinstall. I don't wanna lol but I might have to try it.

[fiery quarry]

Hmm

Maybe ask in nms help

[copper yoke]

I've been at this for about a week. I thought maybe I needed to try different mats but not working. Thanks, will try there or just go out and find a small one in the wild lol. About to hit that point 🙂

[fiery quarry]

Weird

May be a bug

[copper yoke]

Yeah, I'm thinking it might be, going to try to use shrinking mats despite the text and see what happens.

[fiery quarry]

Yeah

[copper yoke]

Oh hell yeah, believe it or not, that seems to have fixed it. The same mats that were saying inherited are now decreasing it. If anyone else has this issue, try that!

[fiery quarry]

Nice

[vale valley]

if someone need any of these lemme know,i will make them lay egg then give it to you

[earnest mortar]

In a galaxy far far away. Muhacksonto galaxy. Still want the code?

[fiery quarry]

can i get a worm?

also anyone know a protogek that has gek head?

[deep badger]

don't need it but that beetle has some nice coloring

[vale valley]

yeah sure

[floral badger]

i want that weird looking dino :D

[vale valley]

sure

[floral badger]

btw do you also have eggs for that xeno xeno and the chunky bird below it? :)

[vale valley]

all of them are adult so they ready to lay egg,i need to visit their habitat planet first

[floral badger]

Ey sweet

[vale valley]

wait me in my freighter or station

im gonna go lay eggs first 😆

[floral badger]

Okei

[fiery quarry]

ill be on later today

[crimson needle]

This place was way to much for 130am.

Balled up shoe lace and microscopic fuzzy snorlax were particularly hard to pass on.

[sick shell]

I found this guy ... In green blue color....now i need to get it

[alpine spoke]

Hey folks, I think it's time for me to make doggo. I have like 10 companion eggs, how do I do it?

[crisp ether]

Leaf beetle/euclid

[tame kite]

Does anyone know where I can find a creature like this, preferably in the color pallet as well? I’ve tried contacting the original poster of the ss, but after 2 pings and a dm spread out by a week, they still haven’t gotten back to me.

[warm heron]

does the armor accessory do anything? I noticed it seems to generate a glowing green field of some kind

[deep badger]

decided to try my hand at taming flying creatures, worked 'easily' enough, but they like to fly into water, so going to need to try other ones

[deep badger]

fun, but still have to work out the 'flying into the ground' issue

[dawn sable]

@deep badger Are you actually taming them, or save editing them in as pets?

[deep badger]

taming, but with the mod for the interaction prompt

[dawn sable]

I'll trade you, I need a specific one tamed because I want its proper 10 digit descriptor. Hand me an egg from one of your birds and I'll figure out how to fix it, in return for an egg from the bird I want.

[deep badger]

just shoot me the address of the bird you're looking for and I can see what I can do

[shadow plinth]

@vale valley Could I get the robo dog, monstrosity and child of helos please I’ll trade you either units nanites or anything I got!

[vale valley]

yeah sure,and i dont need payment

[shadow plinth]

Sweet!

[sage dust]

I also wanted the robo dog and the sandworm.

[sage dust]

I might be wrong, but this pet might already be modified. I have a horned t-rex that ended up in this color.

[vale valley]

i can give you rn if you are online

[sage dust]

I am online.

[solid sentinel]

Railgun is so cool

[tame kite]

I believe it’s uranium that gets the purple and lime color

Also that’s an awesome looking rex you have there

But Ik you can modify color, so I’m more curious where I can find a rex with those spines on the back (and no horns on he head)

[fiery quarry]

True

[slow dew]

I wonder what kind of mutations I can make with these. Is it random with each egg?

[fiery quarry]

Do you have egg for that? Or cords?

@crimson delta sorry for ping but I didn’t reply ping

[tribal coral]

Can someone with flying pet mod get me this pet? With Exacly this wings, tail,head,beak,horns/braids?

[median solstice]

I can recomend the picture to one of my friends hes a modder i can let u know if he responds takes him usually 16 hrs tho were on dif time

[weary drum]

Quick question about the unlimted companions mod

Nvm pins got me

[tribal coral]

no rush. I wont be avaliable in next couple days anyways. Message me when i can pick it up. Thx in advance.

[hot latch]

@slow dew do u have any flying pets for trade

[slow dew]

Just the one in the picture. I don't know how to get up to flying ones to tame them. Lol

[median solstice]

You need a mod to tame flying creatures and they sill have to build up to get them

[hot latch]

Some low flyers are tameable @median solstice

[shadow plinth]

I’m online rn

[vale valley]

i dont

[shadow plinth]

?

[stable trench]

I am pretty new to NMS, what utility do these pets/companions have? Can you ride them, do they eat thy enemies and provide you skulls you can hang outside your base?

[floral badger]

Pets are pets, you can ride some of them but some cant, you get one or.. 18 because theyre cute :)

[slow dew]

Just got this one. The only bird I have. Lol

[vale valley]

looks cute

[slow dew]

And this one. These 2 are on the same planet.

[median solstice]

Oh yeah i know that mate was saying the large ones that fly high in the air

[earnest mortar]

I need a name. Any ideas?

[vale valley]

Can one sequence the eggs of these guys? Hmmm... should try that. Get a tiny, but really vicious one.

[warm heron]

A question about colorations. I have a flying beetle I want to recolor but it seems fairly different from the ones that people have tested out. They are all stag beetles and all that seems to change color are the horns and the wing “covers” but my beetle doesn’t have either of those features or they are quite different. Will the color changes still work the same or at all?

[compact glacier]

Does anyone know if mechanoceris can spawn in planets that arent exotic?

[dawn sable]

@compact glacier They can, any biome except dead afaik, but in Uncharted systems only.

[compact glacier]

Uncharted systems as in systems without any dominant species (vy'keen, gek, korvax)?

[dawn sable]

Yes

[compact glacier]

ill go hunt then, ty

[shadow spire]

I love these things lol, like a Neanderthal Gek

[solid crystal]

Thought they were mascots for the Detroit lions?

[solid sentinel]

They can mine stuff for you give things that are worth decent money and protect you from other animals they can do much more tho

[paper imp]

He looks like a Stewart

[earnest mortar]

Nice one.

Am considering Giga-Bite as well.

[earnest mortar]

If the egg-sequencer says "Inherited" under a Catalyst, does that mean the original trait will not change?

[dawn sable]

Correct

[earnest mortar]

Bummer... Thank you, though. 🙂

[sage dust]

I have found a pet with the full animation set of a dog. It even lifts the front paw (hoof) to ask for food. Is that rare?

That yellow thing is a pet?

[crimson needle]

Yes

[crimson needle]

Anyone know what the biggest fauna in euclid is

[sage dust]

Diplos can be very large visually. Game scales them differently.

[crimson needle]

K

[worn jackal]

anyone know where i can get one

[dawn sable]

@worn jackal I don't think they currently spawn in game, and even if they did, theyd be untameable

[quiet smelt]

There were some worms as a reward of one expedition, I think. But I doubt that there are any tameable worms in the game, at least without use of mods.

[deep badger]

feeling a lot like spore out here, with a rogue creature roaming about

[earnest mortar]

Don't find many of these, but this one seems awfully colorful. 🙂 Just felt like sharing a picture.

[worn jackal]

i have one as well

fren

[warm heron]

does the energy coil do anything?

[warm heron]

also my understanding is that if a creature is playful and you raise the helpfulness that should decrease the playfulness until it hits zero and then the helpfulness will rise right? I’ve been resequencing an egg like ten times and the prediction for it is still playful

also according to the guides I have found certain materials that are listed as increasing helpfulness say that they decrease it when I place them into the resequencer. What’s going on there?

[shadow plinth]

@vale valley if you’re on could I trade you for the eggs I wanted a few days ago?

[sage dust]

Some of the materials are mislabeled. If you find the correct one, the sequencer will show the pet as "playful" and then "dutiful" when you move into the Helpfulness scale.

[warm heron]

mislabeled in game or mislabeled on the guides in this channel?

[sage dust]

In NMS Wiki that I was using.
https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Egg_Sequencer_-_Neural_Calibrator

I used materials that can be made indefinitely, i.e Carbon, Copper, or Gold. And got one 100% Dutiful pet, and one 100% Loyal.

[floral badger]

What does pet stats do?

I only know physical changes

Idk what loyal or aggresive ect supposed to do

[wicked ledge]

I think it just changes behaviors like how far away they run or how often they need to be fed/played with

[lean jolt]

i found a weird ball

so now i have a ball pet

[sage dust]

Aggressive means it will attack local animals, Gentle pet will look for resources to bring back. Loyal will try to help you, and Playful will run around smashing into rocks and trees. 😄
Did you knew that you can control them with gestures?

[floral badger]

Wai wha :00

I did not know you can control em

Ty for the info i shall test it later

[crimson delta]

I forgot

[fiery quarry]

Lol

[dawn sable]

@floral badger @sage dust
Aggressive pets are more inclined to attack vs Gentle, Independent pets will wander farther away from you vs Loyal, Helpful pets will gather resources vs Playful.

[deep badger]

i'm testing how the creatures work with different AI, problem is my bird now only knows up, send help

i 'fell' off bird, in space now, to amusing for me not to share

ended up dismounting somehow and ended up at the bottom of the sea, lesson learned, companions are weird

[floral badger]

Space adventure with birdie

[spare wolf]

What can i do to make my pet have all the good traits

whats best thing to give her

[worldly yacht]

Compliments

[vapid pivot]

@worldly yacht No gifs in this channel please

[worldly yacht]

Aaww

[full tendon]

this was definitely glitched in order to make it that big, is this working with other pets as well ? if yes, how do i do that ? thank you

[deep badger]

I had made one of mine pretty big but I can't quite tell how big it is compared to that one, but they can get large

[elfin grove]

Yes

[deep badger]

no that i'm not on my phone I can see the ship in the distance for scale, Moda-moda is no where near that big, so idk

[solid sentinel]

This thing is very weird

[placid spruce]

I have seen worse

[solid sentinel]

I’m sure you have

[slow dew]

Pleased with my find. 😍😍 lol

[spring dagger]

So how do I get into modificating my eggs? Are there any basics you need to know, like basic ingredients you can start experimenting with?

[placid spruce]

Can someone show me something really weird looking

[full tendon]

Oh wow, i thought there is a limit on how big it could be, thank youuu

[sage dust]

How about this?

[solemn nymph]

Hi! I got the same, in red, more high

[wicked ledge]

Nothin major, I like to use gold or storm crystals for maxing out size for example, and there’s a lot of different options for color like geodesite, acid, other craftable materials in that one nanite section of the nexus, and activated metals. Afaik, if an ingredient works, it’ll say unstable/increasing/decreasing, but if it won’t have any effect, the slot thing will say “inherited”. Fun to play around with but if you want specific results there’s wiki pages with tables on the ingredients. I believe colors work a little differently for certain creature types like butterflies but I’m fairly new to egg sequencing too so I haven’t played with it much!

[spring dagger]

Thanks for your answer! I haven't looked further into it because the wiki pages actually overwhelmed me quite a bit! But I'll just start with the ingredients you mentioned that work and go from there 🙂

[wicked ledge]

Oh yeah there’s so much in those 😅 have fun sequencing!

[lime delta]

once I get more companion slots I'm gonna make my weird ass green pig deer bigger

same with my horse robot

[earnest mortar]

I've seen a lot of weird creatures. This one is new to me.

[foggy brook]

Good hat

[foggy brook]

From Next

[earnest mortar]

They have been in for a while afaik. Just quite rare.

[deep badger]

sort of like chrome spheres for me, went forever without seeing any, then saw them in 3 different planets between 2 systems, and only seen them 1 time since

[merry furnace]

Candy cane strider!

[median solstice]

Pls may i have the coords for this lol

[sage dust]

Messaged you in PM

[full tendon]

Ooh wow, its like a eye demom from doom

[fiery quarry]

Oh yeah

I like those

[peak acorn]

Do you know where i can find a planet with a lot of bonecat to make a breeding ?

[foggy brook]

#nms-fauna message

Another one, galaxy not listed- I'm guessing Euclid: #nms-fauna message

[peak acorn]

@foggy brook Thanks, on the way !

[peak acorn]

Do you know in witch galaxy is it ?

it seems to not be euclid 🧐

YES I FOUND THEM !!

They are a lot Thank you !

[foggy brook]

Nice

[solid junco]

Inbred xenomorph

[quiet smelt]

I found them in a random toxic planet one time.

Bululangr galaxy.

[clever cargo]

blob after puberty

[spice jungle]

What galaxy and code

[earnest mortar]

Do you think it is worth getting one? Or are they common? There are also Diplos without the neck extensions on this planet. Looks kinda cute. 🙂

[paper imp]

I haven't seen one, but it looks cute so I'd go for it

[solid sentinel]

I think they’re kinda rare

[wicked meteor]

all of my pets suddenly vanished a few hours ago
i've tried everything to get them back, even save editing

to no avail

however

I'll see if i can work something out

[earnest mortar]

🫢 No backup anywhere?
