nms-fauna

[edgy moss]

Does anyone have an egg for one of these?

[untold roost]

When using the analysis visor switch to "Creature Survey Mode" to see what class the creatures you scan are.

[placid widget]

seeign a lot B and A but no S

I guess if I find the right biome it will have tons?

[untold roost]

That's RNG for you...you can keep going until you do find SSS or you can adopt from others' discoveries if you have all the glyphs to use portals. There is no easy trick to finding SSS...and it has nothing to do with biome, there is no one biome where all the SSS are hiding. Ultimately you'll want SSS fro every biome anyway.

[placid widget]

so if I land on a mechanical planet, somewhere on it there's an SSS?

I see only A at most

[untold roost]

No? Maybe? If you're very lucky there might be but they don't have higher chance of being SSS than any other creatures anywhere else.

[placid widget]

so all the fauna I find will have a pre-generated classing and if I scan 4/4 mechanicals, I won't find SSS among them if one of them isn't

[untold roost]

They have pre-determined classes, yes. And if you scan every creature on the planet without finding an SSS, looking at more won't help. If one is SSS, then ALL creatures of that species on that planet will be SSS.

[placid widget]

ok that saves me a ton of time

[brisk vine]

Can confirm btw 👍. I just got one.

[brisk vine]

I'm also asking after one.

[untold roost]

You can't adopt flying creatures without mods or getting an egg from someone.

[old narwhal]

If you guys have planet coords for a planet with those birds I’ll tame one for you otherwise I’ll search for one. I think I know where one is

[analog rose]

there are flying creatures they are just hard to find

[old narwhal]

I did find this mini dragon lookin guy if anyone wanted. Very fast flying

[regal idol]

High flying bird, dragons, griffons and most worms. I have a flying sphere, and a skinny worn with wings. Altitude is hard to control, doesn't seem to be like exocraft

[analog rose]

creatures have mind of own

[regal idol]

Some, I think it the personality traits. But the controls for flying them is turn by right and left not the default mouse camerad control

[cyan silo]

Found another care bear but this one has spikes on its head and fur shoulders

[stoic elbow]

grossly neon udder

the flying purple system creatures have a lot more colour variation than I though

[hollow hamlet]

Is that mode automatically there or do I need to install something?

[untold roost]

Automatically there.

[limpid panther]

It auto installs after you tame a creature, at least that’s what happened for me. Think the check is having a creature in your registry cause when I released my only creature I lost the creature survey mode

[hollow hamlet]

That's good to know

[supple ice]

made the squishy thingy huge, it's hilarious

also SSS radioactive dinosaur

[stone burrow]

Well-well!

[brisk vine]

Ya I know. I think i posted about asking for an egg earlier on the lfg/trade channel.

[brisk vine]

I'll take a dragon please.

I can mod the egg now that I've figured out the egg splicing.

[real berry]

crazy

all in a single system

[lucid island]

Flyinglizards flight can be adjusted by changing the creatures creaturetype and size.

They fly like shit and dive into the ground when the standard flyinglizard ID is used in the creature type section

Not at all to do with personality

[lucid island]

Very limited if you intend to sequence for multiple models, can have some good colours tho also depends on texture and model.

[stone burrow]

SSSpike

[hollow hamlet]

What number is broomerrai?

[twilit prairie]

@ocean chasm @edgy moss @brisk vine If you see the previous message I attached you can get eggs from other players. 🙂

They can't be tamed like normal without mods, but you can always try asking around in #nms-lfg-or-trades or different #1418605454300549120

[twilit prairie]

I'm definitely interested. :3 I don't think I have any radioactive yet and that's a beauty!

[tribal coral]

130#

[manic lodge]

I have bases in Broomerrai, if you need a lift. I also have an egg for a dragon.

[gentle wing]

so i just saw a BIG worm

what was that??

should i be worried??

[manic lodge]

Nah, they don't really interact with you. Though, planets with them quite often have burrows with worms in them. The big guys arching overhead won't touch you.;

[brisk vine]

I have been. Gotten a couple offers. Just timing at this point. Thank you

[supple ice]

gaaaddaam that a huge dinosword

[brisk vine]

Big d*** swinging 🤣

[dark pond]

that orange crystal is an animal but it can only run. you can't feed or tame it :c

big ass dino

[meager canopy]

Guess who has a walker as a pet.

[dark pond]

how

[meager canopy]

Im a modder

Pm me for a free egg.

[manic lodge]

Scary feet scary feet.;

[meager canopy]

I make designer pets

I can make any creature a triple S class, and customize move sets

[edgy moss]

Thank you for the info

[twilit prairie]

Of course! ^^ We're always happy to help.

[neon topaz]

Hello, which biom? Toxic, Desert? Triple S?

[brisk vine]

Guess who also has a Sentinel Walker friend now

[lilac vigil]

how?

[tranquil zephyr]

save editing

[meager canopy]

I do it all for free

Because I’m against charging people for in game items

So yeah I’m out of eggs tonight but I will have more tomorrow

And I’m tired

[lilac vigil]

it wouldnt let me pm you could you message me?

[sage summit]

Anyome do some nuzzlocks yet?

[hearty hare]

White grass autumn forest blue sky and ocean ringed .. and oversized leviathan for Subnautica 2 vibes

[dark pond]

if I remember correctly it was just a grassy planet with hot storms. I can give you glyps if you want to

[dark pond]

that's so cute

[bold harness]

triceratopish looking dude

[broken widget]

any tamable flying dragon?

[dusk echo]

I have a giant bird

Its so fast if I let it fly around it dismisses itself

[brisk vine]

Same. Except mines a dragon. It's so fast! >_<

[dark pond]

I am 90% sure that this is that planet.

[supple ice]

proper t rex, garbage stats though (CCB)

[neon topaz]

Which Galaxy?

[supple ice]

floating spines... I wonder how it would be looking really huge

[dark pond]

Euclid

[broken widget]

do u knoq where did u find it?

[patent sonnet]

You cannot adopt "flying lizards" without a mod on PC. At best, you can be given a Companion Egg from one by another player

[hearty hare]

You want an egg of it it’s triple A class max size I’m sure 💯 % aggressive desert type sure it being maxed out could be a heavy hitter and it’s a good high flyer

[dark pond]

thank you a lot for asking but no

[neon topaz]

Not Triple S that Dinosaur

[dark pond]

I never said it was

[neon topaz]

i just looks for Triple S

[stone burrow]

Again... Those undiscoverable btches...

[ornate spade]

what is this type of spider/ant fauna called?

[indigo topaz]

mines called Cupcake

[raw mantle]

Arthropods
https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Arthropodae

[ornate spade]

tyy

Arthropodae is a genus of fauna. They are giant beetles. They often prance, and are found with a crystal, or any other form of big ass

im crying

[raw mantle]

lol

[neon topaz]

I have bad luck or all Desert planets are Flyers only now ?

[open glade]

Yellow/Pink Helmet (S.B.S. Class)

[old narwhal]

quite a well endowed unicorn dog thing?

[charred shore]

wiki is a work in progress to say the least lol

[lilac vigil]

where

[old narwhal]

helmet crab is here

[lucid island]

You might want to add more details for people.

The walker cannot be interacted with without a mod, and the walker being summoned will kick the player from multiplayer until they have de spawned the creature or reset their session.

[meager canopy]

No worries, I always drop the multiplayer warning right before or during the delivery so they don't miss it. It’s definitely a niche companion, but it still does exactly what it needs to do in the Xeno Arena.

[lucid island]

Ahh ok never messed with any of the new xeno stuff for pets didn’t think it would transfer for the egg? Though that was assigned when the egg hatched?

But you could also add that you wouldn’t be able to use the xeno pellets on the walker

[meager canopy]

Same thing. I always say right before a trade because if I say it right before in the title no one sees it. It’s a common problem I’ve had.

No worries tho. It performs well in xeno arena

No one crashes

[stoic elbow]

bug with interesting colours

[dark pond]

that's so weird

[fierce heron]

How long for hatched fauna to grow into adults

[quaint fractal]

i think its like a week i forgor

what i do know is its a global timer

[lucid island]

Oh ok, what can you change in terms of arena performance? Does any of it actually transfer over when a player hatched the egg?

[meager canopy]

Not much. It’s stable enough for xeno arena. I can edit class type and move sets and traits

[solar plank]

If anyone has a HOVERING VALET or MECHA MOUSE, this Gek tryna catch ‘em all 🙂

Dm me please

[stoic elbow]

every colour variation I could find of the floating spikey creatures so far. they're very fascinating!

there are probably more colours out there but I got tired of travelling to many systems just for a small chance of finding one

I was going to include coordinates for each one but I downloaded the images in the wrong order and I don't remember which set of coordinates were for which variation

[tawny leaf]

are those purple system-only?

[patent sonnet]

Yes, they are.

[stoic elbow]

oh god there are more colours. I'll try to find them next time I play

[old narwhal]

found a pretty nice bird if anyone wanted a big flier

[little glacier]

Was that naturally adoptable?

[old narwhal]

Unsure. I can give out eggs though

[patent sonnet]

No, flying lizards are not naturally able to be interacted with/adopted from the wild

[fickle oracle]

I use to be neutral to Hello Games's ignoring mods. Didn't see any downside. However now that they're coming to the Anomaly with perfect pets, highest agility possible, it's ruined play for me. And all that hard work i have put in on console.👎

[placid widget]

Do people get variations of these guys?

How big is the register of the prize companions?

[placid widget]

Where the heck do people find eggs??

[tribal coral]

These are unique pets and dont have variety i think and bc of that they cant lay eggs. Not sure about glowing eye one

[placid widget]

Do I have to fight actual players for them?

I'd rather not

[young steppe]

@placid widget You need to accomplish the Milestones Xeno-Arena for them

[tranquil zephyr]

1 and 4 are the only ones that can't lay eggs afaik
corrupted quad and boundary horror

[placid widget]

Ohh ok and that's how I can get that unique mechanical one that was shown?

[little glacier]

For sure, I was clarifying because they said they found the pet.

[supple ice]

it’s a standard egg, I found this dino on some planet, adopted it, it gave me the egg, I modified it as much as I could and it came out huge

[placid widget]

Oh I completely forgot that they give eggs

I thought they just get found in the wild

But they need to be hatched on the planet they got adopted from?

[lapis mulch]

Nope, just need to be on a planet of that creature's type to have it lay an egg, then you can hatch it on any planet

[placid widget]

Oh thank god

Because I forgot where I caught them lol

But you can breed S rank high stat critters from these eggs?

Or is it going to be random each time?

[little glacier]

The rank is permanently set. You can use the egg sequencer to change the Traits (helpful, aggressive, devotion…)

[placid widget]

What do those stats do?

[little glacier]

They can allow the pet to trigger random acts during battles. They also affect how the pet behaves toward other animals on planets, or they can find resources for you.

[placid widget]

That explains why some of my guys would just do something on their own like a bonus action

[solemn knoll]

Diplo in the background, yay

[thin haven]

this looks sick 😱

[neat sierra]

glyphs to this planet if anyone else is interested

[stoic elbow]

they can be lavender?!?

[neon topaz]

Hello, i looking stil

SSS T-Rex Toxic and Desert if anyone has coords.

Thanks.

[pale carbon]

Like to get one as a pet, sent you a DM

Do you have the ability to get Eggs to trade with others

[old narwhal]

Sent you a DM because I’ve been searching for one of those for weeks lol

[half tulip]

how can you get the glpyhs of the planet without going to the portal?

[neat sierra]

photomode, glyphs will show up bottom left

[spice verge]

Where do I find this guy

[half tulip]

tysm

[gilded crown]

Anyone else end up with pets they can't interact with? I'm working on getting some aggressive Anomalous pets and hatched this one after some re-sequencing. It can fight but can't be fed or otherwise interacted with.

[open glade]

Ill adopt an egg!🙏

[open glade]

Glyphs are in the first photo😇Euclid

[spice verge]

Oh they are lol. I didn't click the photo so I didn't see the whole thing. Lol

[brisk vine]

Talk to @twilit prairie . He hooked me up with egg.

[raw mantle]

Yes. If you gene-split most anomalous-looking creatures they will either stay the same, turn into another anomalous creature variant or turn into a mineral like that one (there's also a black egg-shaped mineral one too). The mineral ones I'm guessing are placeholders or something and are bugged.

[stoic elbow]

they're supposed to be the ones that come out of the ground like the jumping hexagons and light geysers but I think this update broke them

[vivid coyote]

some variants cannot be interacted with in vanill anms

that particular one never could be tamed

[stoic elbow]

that's really weird

[twilit prairie]

You need to use mods to be able to interact with that one unfortunately. I can get you an egg for it though. You too if you're still looking @old narwhal

[dawn python]

I found a very small creature I could tame. You can barely see it in the grass.

[twilit prairie]

I think we had like 3 or 4 of them out at one point because there is no despawning them lol once you summon or hatch them they linger and even follow you to the local space station (full size) until you close the game and restart. You can even summon a different pet and it will stick around xD I don't remember crashing, but yeah the no interaction and arena xp bits are pretty standard disclaimers.

Vc and dms tend to be easier tho

[old narwhal]

I have the mod that unlocks the companions to tame, I just haven't been able to get close enough to a sandworm 🙁 i'd love an egg if anyone has the bone variant

[twilit prairie]

Of course. 🙂 That one is quite popular where I usually am so I keep one handy just in case.

Mind if I DM you?@old narwhal

[old narwhal]

Of course! 🙂

[fickle oracle]

I don't see any point in grinding for SSS pets for the holo arena any longer. Ran into 2 players yesterday, both with modded pets. Perfect 100/100/100 417 agility on 9 pets. I spent hours and hours mutating my less than perfects. Leaves such a bad taste in my mouth that I am leaving the game. I'll come back when they show more love to console players.

[static zodiac]

Hello 👋Would anyone be willing to gift me a sentinel quad egg if thsts possible?

[waxen river]

What’s the news is it tomorrow yet

[serene leaf]

Happy to, dm me

[pale carbon]

O well I guess I’ll pass for idk where to find the Mods

[serene leaf]

Companion pet unlocker, which allows you to interact with creatures that don’t have that interaction in the vanilla game.

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/1868

[pale carbon]

@twilit prairie I got the mod download, I am EST and will be online today with the update after 5PM my time if you have that Egg

[pale carbon]

Thank you for the Mod Location

[static zodiac]

4 variations of the robotic life forms if anyone is intrested

[manic lodge]

love it.;

[radiant sand]

Anyone knows what the best cataclysis mods are for an egg?

[manic lodge]

@radiant sand

[radiant sand]

Do i need to study astrology for this ? 😭 [joking] tyy

[strange garden]

found this just now in the expo

[radiant sand]

How does he has an "S" rank 😭

[strange garden]

absolutely no clue i just saw it and thought hey thats cool what its an s rank

[radiant sand]

XD

[strange garden]

the height is def wrong tho

cuz like im not even as high as the leg

[radiant sand]

This tuff aswell

[strange garden]

rocket leg ball

[radiant sand]

Ohh ik how he has an S. Its because if u scan em and see good stats thats what its final form looks like but u get the normal form so u need to upgrade it

[strange garden]

makes sense

[latent orchid]

Found this cool guy

He is very chill

[near stump]

I’m kinda new wtf was this thing??

[latent orchid]

Ur friendly neighborhood giant worm

They just hang around

[quaint fractal]

the first SSS i found myself isnt even a normally obtainable one 🤣
heres the coords i guess (also features a verdant-only system)
(if you want it, use companion unlocker)

[fervent trail]

Can those things be petted ?

[serene leaf]

Sandworm CreatureID Would require a mod to tame and interact with.

Typically players will use the Flyingsnake ID when making pets for vanilla use as these can be interacted with once they are a pet, but can’t be initially interacted with to tame without a mod.

[fervent trail]

Ok thanks !

[serene leaf]

🐟

[tribal coral]

Preety colors

[stoic elbow]

the low flying creatures are so pretty

[little glacier]

Very nice. My glow fish is monochrome, the body and eye are the same color. To get the eye and body different colors would I use the egg sequencer Gene Splitter or Dye Injector? (I was thinking the dye would only recolor it in the same pattern).

[stoic elbow]

the gene splitter either won't change anything or it will turn it into a completely different protoflyer variant

I think there was an image that showed all the colour variants of the glowing fish and what materials can be used in the dye injector to get them

[quaint fractal]

does anyone know what "blue" biome is?
was wondering why it kept saying "invalid climate"

[cloud moss]

the mega-exotic planet use the bespoke red/green/blue biomes

[quaint fractal]

this did not work

[vivid coyote]

dioxite is a radon world / falls under green

[stoic elbow]

I think they're the only protoflyer with this many colour variants. the other ones tend to only have 3-4 colours I think

[quaint fractal]

augg

[stoic elbow]

so cute

[stoic elbow]

first time seeing a plough this big

I think I'm going to build an observatory to watch them do their thing

[mild cliff]

Maybe maybe

[quaint fractal]

wait did i just 1v3 challenging oceanus?

stats n moves

[tranquil zephyr]

hate to burst your bubble but it's not that hard to do when you have triple S
battle other players with that slow pet and see how different it is

[quaint fractal]

why would i

[tranquil zephyr]

you don't have to
but comparatively Oceanus is quite a bit easier, mostly because he doesn't use all triple S iirc
so if you want a real challenge, fight other players

[quaint fractal]

i meant the daily version

[tranquil zephyr]

that is in fact what I am referring to when I say Oceanus

[quaint fractal]

alr

[stoic hearth]

eyy found this cool dino... not what I was looking for but still searching

[stoic hearth]

one of these days I'll fine the dino type I'm looking for

[neon topaz]

Triple S? What Biom?

[stoic hearth]

nope. all Cs It just looks nice. Toxic iirc

[neon topaz]

Need T-Rex Triple S like this

Toxic and Desert.

Many weeks no result.

Nobody of this 10000 users here

No reddit
No google
No Youtube

So insane hard?

[stoic hearth]

yup

Found cool looking ones but not triple S stats. But what I'm searching for is a specific setup which is mega rare to find

[neon topaz]

Atm i got travel bug

1921 Ly hyperrange and dashed line in Galaxy map lol.

100% hyper and cant left system except teleporters, anomalie or bases.

I make user Waypoint... not exist
No atlas station waypoint
No blackhole waypoint
No Mission waypoints

Useless that game.

[stoic hearth]

F

[tribal coral]

They dont do much except zooming in random direction

[weary junco]

Anomalocaris

[peak olive]

mechanical triple S?

[peak olive]

kinda like this one

[peak olive]

found another planet with them by hero2u but ty anyway

[pale carbon]

Cool

[stoic elbow]

baby's first SSS

[stoic elbow]

yeah

[stone burrow]

Finally got trained. 🙂

[cyan silo]

I found a pet thats just a bigger gek that makes comments when i put stuff on him.... caveman geks

[open glade]

A-class, but thought it looks cool.

Any one have a Egg to this Pet,

Not my pic just using it

[mild cliff]

Smol doggy

[placid badge]

Holy crap thats cool

Got coords?

[thin slate]

Might need tiny sunglasses

[serene leaf]

Sure do but please note you won’t be able to interact with it, ie Pat, feed, induce egg ect

[pale carbon]

O then I’ll wait til the expedition for it comes back

[serene leaf]

It’s not an expedition reward, players use a save editor or mod to obtain it

[pale carbon]

O ok

I can meet on the anomaly station

[serene leaf]

We will use friend code as its unlikely we will be in the same anomaly instance, please dm me

[silk heron]

Hello!! Any chance i might be able to have an unmodified egg? I am absolutely in love with that kitty and would love to have one!

[stoic elbow]

they're in the first photo!

[raw mantle]

Dang, looks like they nerfed the XP gain from fighting high level opponents with low level creatures with this update.

[worldly heart]

Found a cool looking armadillo dog

[dawn python]

Deathclaw at home

It wasn't too good I think it was either B or A.

My most broken little gremlin, does stuff and when I need it sacrifices itself for the rest of my team to become invincible.

Crab Rave is small but a unit

[solar geyser]

Why he walking like Bigfoot 😭

[rich cape]

anyone got a sandwarm egg or smth?

[serene leaf]

Sure do, these use the Flyingsnake ID not sandworm but they work better for players that way.

[rich cape]

wdym?

[serene leaf]

Wdym? wdym

[rich cape]

like what do i do with the ids!

[rich cape]

WHERE CAN I FIND ONE

[serene leaf]

You can do whatever with that information, I’m more just providing info on the question you asked with an addition of clarity

[rich cape]

Ohh can you tame the birds in the sky

[serene leaf]

Not all flying creatures can be tamed, birds and worms cannot be tamed and require a save editor or mod to make them a pet.

Low flying creatures like beetles, butterflies ect can be tamed in the vanilla game.

Eggs of creatures even if save edited in can be passed to other players

[thin slate]

Interesting fella here

[cyan silo]

When I get off work I dm you cords

It’s on permadeath tho

[rich cape]

wdym

can i not go to it then

[cyan silo]

Uhhh idk tbh. But I’ll send portal glyphs anyhow after work

[rich cape]

ty man

a caveman gek is going be fire

[rich cape]

Can I get a egg

[elder kindle]

Oh hey @serene leaf

I need you again at some point 💔

I need another flying snake, but improved

[serene leaf]

🫪

Improoooved?

[elder kindle]

Yeahhhh:)))

[serene leaf]

Sure dm me with what you want and if possible we can discuss.

[rich cape]

how?

[rich cape]

HOW??

[rich cape]

Cords?

[lapis nymph]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows if anyone who has a dragon egg I can have as it’s the only way to get that companion?

[serene leaf]

Yeh definitely, dm me and I’m happy to make you one or just give ya one I already made.

[serene leaf]

Save editor or mod

[serene leaf]

Note you won’t be able to tame it without a mod or make it pet using a save editor.

Players can trade you such pets if they have an egg of one.

[lapis nymph]

I dm you

[stoic elbow]

4 more colours!

unfortunately I'll never complete this image because today I learned that these creatures use the same random colour system most creatures use instead of just having a set of fixed colours!

here are some colours I made with the dye injector

unstable plasma makes this very cute cyan and white variant and starship launch fuel makes it completely grey

next time I play I'll try to find one with the circlular pattern and see what other colours look like on it

[midnight tundra]

Just out of curiosity how much would the black bird 2 cost

[manic lodge]

A lot of people don't charge for such things. Eggs are free to produce.

[midnight tundra]

Oh that's cool

[brisk vine]

Anyone want an SAA class Armored Bear-Dog?

[marsh wyvern]

wandering shrimp tank egg
aeron crab egg
geno-prawn egg
corrupted quad egg
boundary horror egg
companion bone worm egg

i have these 6 eggs listed above, what resources should i put in them at the egg hatching station to make them good ?

[marsh wyvern]

dmed you @low wren

[marsh wyvern]

how to make eggs ?

[manic lodge]

Summon the pet on a planet with it's home biome. Induce egg is in the interaction menu.

@marsh wyvern

[marsh wyvern]

thanks a lot

but how can i check where the home biome is

[manic lodge]

When you bring up the pet, in your registry, it says the home biome.

@marsh wyvern

[marsh wyvern]

much appreciated bro

[dusky nymph]

Cool looking t-Rex creature- essantam

[west aurora]

need a planet with known predatory critters on it .. does anyone know of one ?

in swarm expedition

[stoic elbow]

red and cyan springs

the red is hard to see because of the planet's atmospheric filter but it's very pretty

cyan too

[remote sonnet]

Those are so cute.. where did you find those? ): Do you have one of those code things? I don't think I can use it yet but I want to save it for when I can.

[stoic elbow]

both of the images have the coordinates in the corner!

[remote sonnet]

Oh!!! Thank you so much!!! I really want the cyan one, it looks like a little mage-creature..

[stoic hearth]

so far my journey to find the dino I'm looking for has been unsuccessful. Did find this cutie in the hilbert dimension on a Harsh Blue Globe?

[serene leaf]

They would be free matey, be it already in my catalog or a pet as requested by you

[serene leaf]

Just got home gonna reply now

[green geyser]

First; Catarina! ❤️

I'll eventually add where this species comes from.

[tired oasis]

TriceroRilla 😉

[green geyser]

As far as I can tell though they don't just jump from baby to adult cuz she's bigger now but not fully grown, unless she somehow looks diff from the first one with no modifications to the egg.

Baby photo

[tired oasis]

I love those antelopes! That is a big one though!!

Do they grow bigger than in the wild because they are pets???

[green geyser]

Nah she's smaller than the original one

[void sapphire]

My only pet rn cuz I keep forgetting to play

[green geyser]

Polaris came from the origin planet and Catarina was born on Ricinia Gobo

[void sapphire]

sorry for it not being an actual screenshot

[green geyser]

Its fine haha

[void sapphire]

His neck is long, he's just looking backward

[green geyser]

Prolly has a nice long stride too

Which is something I wish they let pets do

Jog/trot

Faster than walk but slower than run

They do it for like a few seconds after you stop sprinting and its the perfect speed

[tawny nova]

Scoopy! pronouns are it/its, found on a sporal world about a week ago

my fave pic of me and Glumbo (she/her)

[ivory depot]

oh! new channel \o/

Managed to find one of those antelopes with long, glowing mushroom not long ago. I'll grab a pic when I hop on again tonight :D

[green geyser]

I had one where she's sleeping under the tree

But its at home

Can't wait to get this pet in Normal mode tomorrow now that I have a Portal in Eissentam. I got a similar one in Creative mode today and their personality is awesome.

[iron socket]

My first pet, hunter.

One of my favorite pets, nightmare.

And my other favorite pet, Huggable

Last but not least, Smirky.

[gritty basin]

my pet's home world has 24/7 extreme weather(always extreme heat) occasionally extreme storms and always extreme sentinels

[iron socket]

Your pet is probably stronger than you if he lived there.

[gritty basin]

i live there

i can post cords

[crimson needle]

I love increasing their size This is Doli. Super friendly and devoted.

She's a good pupper

And this is Poopoo
I plan on making her children giants

poopoo

lovely name

[gritty basin]

this is the baby as a newborn

hes going to be huge , 4 meters taller than the parent

[crimson needle]

This is Alderelle, she's 100% aggressive, extremely protective and independent. She loves scouting ahead and being difficult to interact with. Blood and death are her favorite things. Fun little note about her species, they devour their children if they're weak.

mmmmmmmmmmmmm child scran

This is her Great Grandmother's information.

[gritty basin]

size comparison between the newborn highly edited offspring vs wild counterpart(exotic gender)

[crimson needle]

She gonna be a big girl

(I know genders are complicated for all the species, I just refer to everything as a girl, comparable to referring to a car as a she)

I'm hoping I can mutate her to have long mantis arms. Not a fan of the stubs.

She's unedited, natural species

how do you do the whole taming/breeding thing

[gritty basin]

im going to get its egg and try and get a 16 meter strider next

[crimson needle]

My world corrupted so I have to restart

is it hard to craft the things required

Creature pellets are a simple craft ( which is what you need to befriend and tame creatures) as for all the items needed for gene editing, you just gotta play the game. Most things you pick up can be used for egg development.

[ember wave]

taming is kinda a lot easier now

no specialized bait

[crimson needle]

I'm surprised they made it so simple tbh

Another creature I'll be working on. Unedited, natural species.

[crimson needle]

Thank you so much for the advice @crimson needle - is there anything you need to have in your inventory/a mission needed to be done to be able to craft creature pellets, as I have tried looking for them but they weren't showing up

[ember wave]

the blueprint should be given to you on story progression; the nutrient processor can also process carbon into creature pellets

[crimson needle]

how far through the story do I need to be?

[ember wave]

should be quite early iirc the first time you talk to artemis?

also, have you unlocked the nutrient processor at the space anomaly?

[crimson needle]

no

I was 2 hours in but my save data corrupted

So I have to restart

[ember wave]

right, creature pellets bp should be awarded with regular quest progression

[crimson needle]

oh ok

thank you

wait is that for the main quest lines?

[ripe whale]

on my new play through I got the Creature Pellet BP after getting the Hyperdrive BP and interacting with a terminal to obtain a warp cell or Antimatter

[ember wave]

yeah, ^

[crimson needle]

Three pet locations that I thought you guys might be interested in

and this kawaii little guy
This head type is heckin rare for this type of creature

[gritty basin]

i prefer aggressive creatures cause they refer to you as leaders instead of suit-creature

[crimson needle]

where is this

Euclid. Portal codes included

also, I'm willing to trade pretty much anything for creature pellets

Do you guys seriously not know how the freaking portal glyphs work

its 2021

Fr

I haven't played in over a year

I just got the game again

I dunno how one forgets how the portal works

This is the third time I've been pinged about Portals

[copper yoke]

O.o well, some people just started playing and haven't even gotten to that part yet. I only know because I googled it.

[crimson needle]

^

Portals is like a key part

^

[gritty basin]

most players when they find a portal on a planet they like build on top of them

[crimson needle]

If I can figure out how to get creatures to age faster I wouldn't mind giving away tons of eggs

I changed date/ time but that didnt work

[gritty basin]

i built mine utop of the portal of a extreme volcanic planet with extreme sentinels

[crimson needle]

I read that that made creatures grow faster

[gritty basin]

i think they might of patched that

[crimson needle]

reeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I hate this timed crap. I'd like some sort of function to bypass it, such as using a stasis device or something

[gritty basin]

maybe they will listen to the community and add a item/structure that lets you speed up

in the future ofc

[gritty basin]

size?

looks 7+ meters

[crimson needle]

I dont recall. He was big

[gritty basin]

i found and tamed a 7.9 meter tall trike with a spino sail

exotic gender

but for some reason it the creature register it says mine is 2.3 meters and yet hes bigger than my strider

[crimson needle]

thiccc

[cobalt delta]

Thicccccccccc

[gritty basin]

Extra THICC

[umbral helm]

thocc

[gritty basin]

is that its head crest?

large enough to be a landing platform hahah

[crimson needle]

thonk

[gritty basin]

i cant wait to see someone with a 15+ meter tall grunt/gek. attack on gek 🤣

50m tall gek: The colossal gek

[cold reef]

Can you keep genetically modifying a egg so that the effects stack?

idk how to word it

[gritty basin]

generations you mean e.g if you breed the offspring of the offspring of the first creature that you tamed

i think so have no tested yet gotta wait until my creatures grow up

i am planning on altering the egg of my 12m strider to get 16m offspring

[tacit igloo]

if i adopt an infant creature, will it always stay baby? or is it going to grow eventually?

[gritty basin]

it will grow but the speed is determined by the size

large creatures take 1 week of IRL time to grow while tiny/small creatures take 1 day

[tacit igloo]

oh no

i just adopted the tiniest thing is adorable

[gritty basin]

the smallest thing you can adopt is 0.1m usually blobs

[tacit igloo]

oh cool, i'm still looking for blobs

[gritty basin]

but ive seen tiny striders less than 0.5m before

My home base which you can goto has the largest strider in the entire game thats wild

[tacit igloo]

wait, my eldery creatures are going to die????

[gritty basin]

i dont think they will

you want to becareful when going to the homeworld of the G._Boneouxii/ aka where my home base is, because its a extreme storm volcano planet with extreme sentinels. when you warp over my base is ontop of the portal

[tacit igloo]

oohh cool

i'm at work atm but i'll visit you tonight

lmao i didn't see you on the top, you're tiny.. it's huge

[gritty basin]

my offspring of one of these is 4 meters taller

[green geyser]

Catarina's origin planet (Polaris pictured) Rewicho in the Argoniu System; I can provide coords if anyone is interested.

[cold reef]

How do people get such massive pets? Do they just gene sequence growth constantly?

[tawny nova]

yeup

[cold reef]

Do you have to gene sequence a egg, wait for it to grow, then get an egg out of the new one then repeat to get massive ones?

I don't know much about the gene sequencer

[green geyser]

that would be my guess from my limited experience; the sequencer will show "increase in size" on one of the options as you place materials in it

[cold reef]

I have an egg on me so ill test it out with 2 separate eggs

[gritty basin]

there is a cap for each egg, i hit it, seems to be +4m per egg, use oxygen to have 100% dose

[cold reef]

Aight thanks

[primal sinew]

Do you have to have the creature out for them to grow? i have a couple of babies rn

[strange plaza]

Not that I have seen

[crimson needle]

No

[crimson needle]

The babies take 7-14 days to become fully grown

In real life

[primal sinew]

Awesome thanks

Anyone had their pets just randomly change colour and texture?

Bad photo but those red patches weren’t there originally

And they haven’t gone away

When resetting and that

[strange plaza]

I have had them grow up sooner, first egg I hatched grew up to adult in 4 days almost exactly

And yea, I had some change color, was temporary and resolved itself by the next day

[primal reef]

yeah, mine changed back to the color of its parent

[crimson needle]

This is Barney

xD

[tawny nova]

the little dance they do is so cute

[crimson needle]

agree

[copper yoke]

Yes, the effects of modding an egg stack, you can keep modding the same one until you've maxed out the slot. When that happens, it will say inherited when you put something of that effect in. I just learned this yesterday, I'd been doing it wrong.

Not sure if I should have done this >.<

[crimson needle]

My colossal

[cold reef]

So just spam whatever category I want constantly?

[copper yoke]

Yeah, like if you want to grow it, put stuff in to grow it, run the sequencer, put the now sequenced egg back in, add stuff to grow, sequence egg until you get the desired result. I did it over and over until I maxed out the size on one and shrunk the other as much as it would go.

[cold reef]

Alrigt

You probably don't remember but how many times did you gene sequence for a massive one?

[copper yoke]

I don't recall and I had shrunk that egg prior, so I likely had to do it more. It will eventually cap and when you put stuff in to grow, it will still say inherited. That's when you hit the max size for that species.

[cold reef]

I'll just keep doing it until I'm not allowed to make it any better

[cold reef]

Thanks for the help

[grizzled turret]

how do you get this color?

[keen creek]

i did some tests on one of my eggs, and there was ~25 size changes going from smallest to largest

not sure if its the same for all eggs

[shut magnet]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/811645919077335100/816827242487218256/20210304091904_1.jpg

unaltered eggs can hatch with color mutants

usually with colors not available from dyes

the first two mantis creatures were altered in the egg sequencer, while the third egg was left along. when hatching them in sequence, the third one will result in a color mutation most of the time.

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/811645919077335100/816788582462390302/20210304064600_1.jpg

here is another example, the center one is the mutant

the mutated color can pass on to the offspring

[bleak mauve]

my first companion

sleepytime

[split carbon]

Seriously bummed about the rng aspect behind fauna / creature generation between platforms / players. It's something to make note of when following other players' coordinates to find the creature you want. The process doesn't work the same as starships as an example. Beware that if you load in the planet and the creature looks different from what the other player saw / shared / posted, maybe try reloading last save prior to scanning the creature or making it your pet.

[lethal garden]

It takes a random amount of time between 1 and 7 days for creatures to grow right? It just depends on the creature?

[strange plaza]

My pet's body is changing shape?

yea, my latest hatched egg only took like 2.5 days to hatch, others 4

[lethal garden]

that happens if you put items in the gene splitter slot in the sequencer

[strange plaza]

No, my original pet that has not been hatched from an egg

[lethal garden]

the actual anatomy or just colors?

[strange plaza]

Anatomy, tail size, head size, front arms are longer, shoulders bigger, it has a meaner look on its face, head is smaller

[shut magnet]

Creatures will change body proportions as they mature

If that's what you were talking about

[celest rune]

Yeah, hoping to have someone on a different platform confirm if that protogek is different for them as well.
Even when it was randomly green the first time i looked inthe discoveries menu, it still didnt look the same as you saw it.

[strange plaza]

This was it young

This is it mature enough to lay eggs

And it was stable like that for a week, now today

[true path]

Hatched a cat like creature. Named it after one of my pets that passed away a few years ago.

[lethal garden]

do they change as they grow? I used carbon on one of my eggs to make it bigger, but when it hatched it was smaller than the parent

[split carbon]

exactly. it wasn't just a color scheme / textures rendering issue which I'd understand. it was definitely two different looking creatures, or same creature with contrasting features.

[celest rune]

Did it look like that the first time too?

[split carbon]

yup. always the same look. "my" hard shell look i showed you in my pics. all of the proto-gek creatures in that planet look just like that even if different size.

[strange plaza]

Wait... they can grow up enough to lay eggs while still being in the "infant" stage....

[split carbon]

no. when they hatch from the egg, they're infant, and they have to grow (in age along with size) before they can hatch their own egg.

wait. did i reply to this question in a different channel?

whew. different user, different channel. not going crazy.

[strange plaza]

No, I mean, I have a creature I hatched from an egg, which has grown enough to lay its own egg, but is still listed in my companion register as an infant

So it can grow enough to lay an egg, but it's body size/shape has not finished changing yet I guess, or something like that.

Or maturity and ability to lay eggs are two separate counters. They said that to grow to maturity would take 2 weeks, everyone assumed that meant time to take to be able to lay an egg, maybe it means they actually grow for two weeks, the "sexual maturity" is a second counter that is varied

"they" being people looking at some internal timers

[true path]

My companion is channeling the spirit of Cardi B

[split carbon]

ooh that's very interesting!

[strange plaza]

Yea, this is the pet I am using as a timer. I got its parent on the first day of the release, 24 hours later got it as an egg, 24 hours later born, 4 days later it started laying eggs, now 8 days after it started laying eggs and still listed as juvenile

so probably next 48 hours it should reach mature age

[shut magnet]

@strange plaza I see you have two specimens of the same species. If they had different coloring before, they might end up looking exactly the same, because how the game works.

[strange plaza]

Yea, I have noticed that the hatched egg reverted to the color of its parent

their image also doesn't update in the index unless you switch to another species first, even if mutated

[shut magnet]

Basically the game generate 3D assets of each species only once. So when presented together, all variants of a specie will converge into one variant.

Between wild variant, variants from people you play with, and your own variants, the game only load that specie once into cache. And all other variants will be overwritten by the one in the cache.

That's why I avoid using creatures with public coordinates, and only keep one variant of each species.

Hope that makes sense.

[gilded smelt]

I have two variants of one species (one modified one original), it likes to randomly switch around which gets loaded.

[lethal garden]

Does it just switch them up in the menu or when you summon them?

[shut magnet]

Yes

Lol

[lethal garden]

So I should always abandon the parent creature before I hatch the baby or else it could get messed up?

[gilded smelt]

It does not actually, for whatever reason it loads the two pet versions fine

The wild version however randomly switches around between the two I have and apparently even one I had before that I had just dyed and nothing else (one that I no longer have) so it's caching everything somewhere

[lethal garden]

Oh so the pet overrides the wild one when you see them?

[gilded smelt]

Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. It's both weird and inconsistent, I can reload in the same spot and get different results.

[lethal garden]

hmm, so if I make a pet suuuper big, there's a chance the whole planet could be temporarily populated by the big creature?

[gilded smelt]

Not sure if size carries over like that but maybe?

[lethal garden]

i hope not lol. If it's a big enough problem, i'm sure it will be addressed in a patch. The original creature that i've been breeding came from r/nmscoordinateexchange, but I don't plan on returning to the planet where I found it so I'm not too worried I guess

[true path]

I'm hoping this is a session only bug that will clear itself, but I have a companion that no longer walks ahead 50u when pointed in a direction. It's 100% independent/adventurous.

I 'suspect' it's because its trust level reached 100% (this is the only thing that's changed since the last save).

[grizzled turret]

anybody here know why all my gene sequencer result in the same creature combination every single time

I caught like 5 different species of the two legged dinosaurs type and everytime I put their eggs into the gene sequencer, no matter what I put in the gene splitter all always result in the same creature

even tho the parents are all different and taken from different planets

[gilded smelt]

Try a different creature maybe, I had the same issue with the t-rex species

[grizzled turret]

yeah its the trex species too for me, no matter what I do if I put something in the gene splitter it always resulted in that horned beaked trex

just with different colors

[gilded smelt]

I could not get any change at all outside of dye injector

[true path]

Still persists

[gritty basin]

im looking foward to what the lightning coil is going to be, a new weapon? or a reskinned laser

[tawny nova]

probably will attract lightning strikes during storms

[crimson needle]

Is there a list of what all the accessories do? Are some just decorative?

[tawny nova]

glumbo meets more of her cousins

[shut magnet]

If there is no good reason to keep them around, I've always deleted the parents IF I want the offspring to look different

The coloration mix-up is just too annoying to work with.

I can't tell if it's just a temporarily glitch, or did the baby I spent days breeding just got reverted to something else.

[crimson needle]

I delete the parents anyway

[harsh lichen]

oh shit

we have a new channel

[near moon]

also kill those blobs... XD

[tacit pine]

I used hot ice to turn my pet into a gray and light purple color

[gritty basin]

I noticed young/juvenile pets can lay eggs

[drowsy remnant]

is there any consistency to the gene splitter? I was under the impression that every parent can give birth to 2 variants (one extreme and one less extreme) OR you can omit the gene splitter and just get the same variant. In roder to get the variants you needed to use different elements in the gene splitter. But I just ran through like 15 different elements and my diplo came out looking the exact same everytime. Maybe it's broken since their last patch?

I also tried different amounts of the elements and still same derplo

[gritty basin]

i experienced that as well my pet keeps getting the prime gender headcrest of its species and i overdosed it several times

i want it to mutate/ get the dorito strider head

[drowsy remnant]

my diplo has like sideways feet and I just want those out hahaha

[gritty basin]

this is the head i want haha

mine is a 12m tall strider baby is also one of those shovel jaws

[gritty basin]

soon he will be bigger than that wild counterpart(he is 2 days old atm, still a infant)

[near moon]

My most affectionate companion

[gritty basin]

mine is very similar except the color is different and mine has a spinosaurus sail instead of stegosaurus dorsal plate

how tall is it?

the one i got wild was 7.9 meters tall

[shut magnet]

There might be 3 variants and more. You can use any ingredients, but you have to find the threshold % when they change form.

[gritty basin]

shouldnt their be like 17 variants one for each gender type, it would make sense, but im guessing its limited atm

[shut magnet]

Why 17?

Something in the save file?

[gritty basin]

theres 17 different genders

[shut magnet]

Oh, I thought the gender are just flavor text and really doesn't do anything

[gritty basin]

male, female, exotic, prime, alpha,non-uniform, etc they tend to have different appearences

e.g a exotic version of my strider has a rhino horn while prime has the prongs

[shut magnet]

For example the threshold of changing form on my mantis crab is 8 ~ 10%

[shut magnet]

From my testing they are mostly cosmetic and may not associated with the physical form.

[gritty basin]

mostly stuff like body parts etc, height/weight is the size etc

[shut magnet]

[gritty basin]

thats a nice bonecat with a amethyst cluster on its back

[shut magnet]

All the at the bottom row is the same specie. They change from mantis to headless bug around 8 ~ 10%

[shut magnet]

Thx.

Native color is yellow crystal. This one is silicate powder

[gritty basin]

try pure ferrite nice mix of orange and purple

[near moon]

well the height is bugged, its 1.1 meters, but in reality, the actual height is about 3m +

[shut magnet]

I have tested all ingredients except for food lol

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/811645919077335100/816827242487218256/20210304091904_1.jpg

[gritty basin]

same mine says 2.3 meters but wild counterpart is 7.9m

[shut magnet]

I am currently testing natural color mutants

Like this lighter mantis crab in the lot

[gritty basin]

im going to try and get the egg off my 12 meter strider and get a 16 meter offspring

[shut magnet]

The natural color mutants have color palette not available through dye

[cold reef]

Can someone tell me what the other stats do, like helpfulness, devotion

[short flicker]

Height is bugged. If you compare actual size, they are the same.

[sterile forge]

My pet is a 6 meter tall crab/mantis hybrid, I love summoning him everywhere and just being like: yes, this is by boi, and he will destroy you

[gritty basin]

i am working my way up to getting a 20+ meter strider

i want it big enough so i can get on it from the top of my base

[sterile forge]

That’s cool

How do u make them bigger

[gritty basin]

pumping them full of oxygen until it caps out(says inherited at the last oxygen dose)

[cold reef]

I found a floating crab that I want to get to max size

[short flicker]

Since pets have glitched height, that 12m is probably closer to 20m

[gritty basin]

the height fixes when you hatch their egg

but only on the offspring

[sterile forge]

Cool

[true path]

Has anyone tested potential effects of trust hitting 100%?

[gritty basin]

one of my pets has 90% trust atm

[true path]

One of mine is at 100% and all of its original behaviors have been removed.

Wondering if this has other effects (even unexpected ones).

[marsh crane]

All of its original behaviors?

[strange plaza]

I do know that I accidentally made one pet that would not listen to any commands at all, wouldn't go where I pointed and would not come when called.

[crimson needle]

Lol

[strange plaza]

Oh, I have 2 pets at 100% trust

Do they gain trust by having them out?

[crimson needle]

Idk

Two of my pets have 100% aggression

Scary

[true path]

Yes. Basically behaves like it has low independence and helpfulness (both are at 100%). So for example it won't travel far away, scan or dig up resources afterward.

Other companions with similar disposition have the correct behavior, which leads me to believe its the trust level itself.

Yes, I've checked the happiness and food meters.

[true path]

I've found you need to summon them at least once per 24 hr period.

Trust increases 5% each time. So a companion taken in the wild will take 8 days to reach 100%

[shut magnet]

Do you mean size of a certain range are represented by the same height of summoned creature?

[gritty basin]

he means like the creature register displaying wrong heights

e.g you tame a 8m creature, register says its 2.5m etc

[shut magnet]

100% trust doesn't seem to affect robot pets

[gritty basin]

all i know is robo pets 1 shot walkers

[shut magnet]

Oh the scanned height of a wild creature will changed to something else once it's tamed.

[gritty basin]

yeah i tamed a 8.3m strider but it displays it as 7.9m in the register

but its offspring is at 12m

[true path]

I have a flying bear listed as 12.0m. It's nowhere near that.

Meanwhile an old Diplo I had towered over the bear. Also listed as 12.0m. Shit's broken.

[gritty basin]

is the bear a elder/adult

might still be young/juvenile

[true path]

Not yet, but I doubt it'll reach 12m

[gritty basin]

my strider who still is a infant(12m) is about as tall as the wild counterpart(8.3m)

[true path]

It's young but I'm pretty sure its species has a height limit.

Point is the height stats just seem plain wrong.

[short flicker]

Height is measured at the withers of any animal.

[short flicker]

Yeah, heads aren't counted for height on quadrupeds. Otherwise diplos would be a bit undersized.

[mystic knot]

cause i like this crab mantis, but i haven't done any gene splicing

what materials would i need to turn those tentacle hands into crab hands?

[gritty basin]

gene splicing is by far the least understood feature atm, since we dont know the exact % to cause each mutation

atleast with dyes/personality and height we know which thing does what, but gene splicing is a total mystery

[mystic knot]

ah ok

so it's still a big rng dice roll

[gritty basin]

i remember overdosing a diplo and its head turned from a diplo and neck to a rat head

overdosed my strider 15 times and nothing changed

[mystic knot]

have you tried overdosing a bos, and seeing what part changed

[gritty basin]

dont have a bos atm, only striders(Strider best pet imo)

[bleak gulch]

One thing I discovered is that the behaviors of creatures you capture in the wild are not species-specific, but individually specific. Meaning, you can capture one of the same species and it will be aloof, and the other one of the same species would be helpful and just run around collecting things for you.

[cobalt delta]

You mean like this?

[cobalt delta]

Yeah but if they're aggressive they're generally gonna be aggressive?

[strange plaza]

I have some very aggressive pets, they don't act like it

[bleak gulch]

Probably? I was talking about non-aggressive ones, actually. Didn't experiment with ones who are hostile to you already.

[cobalt delta]

I've had 2 aggressive pets

Both will attack things

[strange plaza]

Anyone gotten their pet to 100% helpfulness?

[cobalt delta]

Probably someone has but uhh with a big diplo I think most people would want independence

Yo is it possible for this guide to get pinned anywhere

It would just be useful for anybody

[bleak badger]

Is there a guide that explains the use of companions other than feeding them? I grabbed a few put the miner thing on but nothing happened. Tried the storage box thing and nothing. Devs have not explained anything about their use that I have been able to find. Though I usually fail at google.

[cobalt delta]

Mine are just to be cool

I mean some will attack

I guess helpful ones can mine and stuff

[true path]

For me, companions are a nice alternative to exocraft. Sure, they're not as fast and lack other equipment but they don't require as much upkeep.

Depending on the environment, they can also dig up some valuable items. Mine have dug up dinosaur bones before.

[cobalt delta]

I used my pilgrim to boost up a big mountain

I dont think companions could've done that fast

[true path]

Plus it humanizes the gameplay experience a little bit so it's a nice plus.

[strange plaza]

I just wish I could scan flora/fauna/minerals while riding an animal

[true path]

I could on my old 12m diplo

[cobalt delta]

Or maybe the raw document would be better

How do you guys get such good pics?

Is there a specific sun setting and filter you use?

[cobalt delta]

No I just move the sun behind the camera mostly

[short flicker]

[true path]

oh lawwd, he comin

[stable crystal]

where do i find something like this?

i dont think ive ever seen a creature that big

[mystic knot]

So when you don't over dose an egg in the gene splice section theres more subtle changes?

[cobalt delta]

Add tons of stuff to make a thing big

[stable crystal]

what item do i use?

[cobalt delta]

I used nitrogen for the most part

A couple walker brains

But chlorine

Is really effective

[short flicker]

You can stay in space and mine a bunch of gold, silver, and platinum. They all increase size.

[stable crystal]

could also buy a ton

pretty sure i have plenty

[stable crystal]

what do i use for gene splitter?

[true path]

Don't think a guide for this exists. It's best to experiment. Generally, creatures seem to have 2 variations.

Fed an gene splitter ammonia @ 150%. This was the result. Egg was from the Diplo in the upper right.

[stable crystal]

uhm

[fringe wadi]

huh

[cold reef]

Jut found a 8.0 meter tall strider

[fringe wadi]

i got one of those to

[shut magnet]

Start with this, ping me if you have specific questions
https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/lvkspw/mecha_pet_killing_a_sentinel_walker_in_actual/

[true path]

Fed the same diplo egg above nitrogen (97%). Jeepers creepers, where'd you get those peepers?

[shut magnet]

Mech dog/horse is a champ at scaling impossible terrain

[cold reef]

Anyone have portal coords for gigantic robot fauna?

If they can even grow that much

[true path]

Robo fauna max out at 3.0m

[cold reef]

In the wild or just in general?

[bleak badger]

TY so much for the assist. I do not know if you just wrote that up as I could not find it before. See you had this channel here served me well.
Thanks guys seems this is unofficial but it is a game saver for some.

[cold reef]

In general as on with gene sequence

[true path]

General

[cold reef]

Ah good to know

Thanks

[shut magnet]

Each specifics has one other appearance option through gene splicing. In order to see if there are more options, you have to use less amount to find the threshold % when the change happens.

[cold reef]

Gotta find a portal cord that has 3.0

[shut magnet]

Is there a reason not to just grow your own?

Increasing size is super easy, barely an inconvenience.

[true path]

Are you saying appearance changes have an additional sub change, or that creatures have one variation when using the gene splitter?

[shut magnet]

There is one change at minimum, but people has reported up to 3 changes in one specie

You just need to decrease the percentage in the gene splice to find that threshold.

I always get three of the same egg before testing to save time

First egg is 25%, second egg is 50%, third egg is 75%

From there I would narrow it down further until I find the threshold

[true path]

Testing with items now. So far, I've found only two changes and no amount of changing the threshold is generating a 3rd (this is with a diplo)

[shut magnet]

Test was done with robot dog

Also use ingredients that is less potent, like gases

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/811645919077335100/816811761957077012/20210304081729_1.jpg

This example here, the threshold is about 8 to 10%. There is a reason I say, about.

there are some variables to gene splicing. the bottom three are 23unit@9%, 24units@9%, 25units@10%

So the change might or might not happen at the threshold

Also people found the extra forms within 2% of the threshold.

[true path]

Which gas did you use?

[shut magnet]

Maybe spam the threshold percentage to see if extra forms pop up

[shut magnet]

Pyrite in this case

It's not gas I know lol

But gas is easy to get any gives super fine increments

[true path]

So you used around 7 pyrite, I'm guessing?

[shut magnet]

23 units to get 9%

[shut magnet]

It's there

Or was it phosphorous

It's one of the 6 basic elements

[true path]

Because 7 pyrite is 8% for me

[shut magnet]

What about phosphorus?

[true path]

dosage, that is

let me check

[shut magnet]

I understand

[true path]

20 phosphorous = 24% dosage

[shut magnet]

Maybe it's gas, if I misremembered.

Or the percentage is different depending on ingredients

I use stuff I have left over from stasis farms

[cold reef]

Nsh just wanted to see what they looked liked maxed in the wild

[shut magnet]

Oh, i see

[cold reef]

Trying to find some black and white ones rn

[shut magnet]

The height appearing on scanner really doesn't correlate with physical size in the wild though

I am treating info on scanner as mostly flavor text at this point

[cold reef]

Are you able to change the colors of the mechanical fauna?

By gene sequencing

[shut magnet]

Yes with exceptions

White ones are textured with patterns, you can't change colors on those from reports

[cold reef]

Ah

[true path]

Like this?

[shut magnet]

Yeah

In Xaine's video he has one like that with patterns, but pale green. Not sure if green is from atmospheric filter or what

[true path]

Likely a reflection

[shut magnet]

BTW RyanM, thx for providing good info and verifying things independently

Are you still having problem with your pets at 100% trust?

[true path]

Thanks 🙂 I enjoy doing this stuff, even if it is tedious.

Yep, still having that issue.

Occurs on multiple planet types too.

[shut magnet]

Assuming it's 3.22. my mecha horse seems to be fine through

He was featured in the walker killing video and that's 3.22

I will test it again when I get a chance

Another point of interest is that Xaine started his pet killed wild haz plants before. The pet first remarked about the plant, then killed it.

I have seen pets remark about the plant before, but not actual killing

[true path]

Do they need to be aggressive for that?

[shut magnet]

Xaine thought so, so stated in the patch notes

I will test that too

Find a lone haz plant, clear out 40u radius, load a devoted pet and wait

[gilded smelt]

I've seen a comment relating to a plant but didn't see any actual plant destruction (even when I ran directly into one and took damage - they do retaliate against creatures doing melee damage though)

[cold reef]

First time I've hatched a egg

[strange plaza]

Gotta go fast

[mystic knot]

So when you overdose an egg on size

it just doubles the parent's current size right

[shut magnet]

No

3.22, percentage doesn't matter

It either goes up or goes down, by 0.5m

When will you guys be bored of making kaijuus?

[strange plaza]

There is no "overdose" on size. You can just increase or decrease to a set limit

[true path]

My trusty t-rex.

[foggy shuttle]

Anyone find any tiny pets yet

I have one .4m tall

[mystic knot]

so what fauna are generally found underground

blobs and rodents?

[shut magnet]

Crabs too

And really exotic ones like tentacle pit

[foggy shuttle]

I saw a clear jelly fauna with mini silver spheres in em

But couldn’t take

Tame*

I wish some of the fauna were tame able like the tentacles

[strange plaza]

@foggy shuttle I didn't keep this one and it was a juvenile but.... I do think it was illegally smol

[foggy shuttle]

Ahhh it’s tony lol

Tiny

Do you have any eggs?

Or know which planet it’s from?

[strange plaza]

I know I recorded what planet it was from

[foggy shuttle]

Does anyone know what each thing in the egg sequencer does?

Dude we have the same exact outfit lol

[strange plaza]

That was my old outfit I changed

and...

I think I will have to search my archive to find the little dude

[foggy shuttle]

Ahh ok

Is it a penguin dude?

[shut magnet]

Isn't there a tutorial when you touch the egg sequencer the first time?

[shut magnet]

Did you skip the tutorial?

[river sequoia]

I didn't get a tutorial

[river sequoia]

but it seems that once an egg hatch timer is done you can't alter an eggs anatomy.

[grizzled turret]

you can tho, I tried it except maybe the trex creature they are all bugged and no matter what you use and how much you put on the on the gene splicer the result will always that beaked horned trex

[river sequoia]

I've tried with several eggs and non of them changed after the timer wad done

not to even a t rex

[short flicker]

What were you trying to do? It does, but there's max amounts things can change.

[river sequoia]

the anatomy wouldn't change after the eggs were ready to hatch. everything else would though.

[short flicker]

What anatomy?

[shut magnet]

You can't splice the gene to change the physical form after a lot of things, but timer isn't one of them

So it's one of the other things that's blocking your gene splicing

[gritty basin]

maybe it takes several generation of offspring to see any significant changes in appearence

[shut magnet]

No, that's not a thing in 3.22

[rocky flicker]

anyone know if the bosoptera are tameable as companions? The big flying beetles i mean.

[cursive terrace]

pretty sure they aren’t

[cold reef]

I always thought he looked like Knuckles

[strange plaza]

Yea, just couldn't remember his catch phrase that wasn't from Ugandan Knuckles

[cold reef]

I still have one of the original eggs on my freighter

[gritty basin]

do u no da wae? gonna try and find a red grunt thats 1m and name the species ugandian knuckles

[foggy shuttle]

Can someone explain gene splicing please

[short flicker]

All materials do the same thing and the more you use the more appendages change

[foggy shuttle]

Ah how about size?

And appendages to what extent?

Also, anyone know what playful and indecent does

Independent?

Versus helpful and devoted

[river sequoia]

I've been able to alter things as I see fit, nothing had blocked me from altering anatomy except the hatch timer. This is tested on several eggs from several different creatures.

[foggy shuttle]

Alter in what way tho? Like more limbs or less limbs?

And like a second head or somethinf?

And any benefits of devoted vs Independent companions?

[gritty basin]

independant follow commands at a longer range and dont need as much attention, devoted need more attention but i think they defend you more often

[foggy shuttle]

So independent + help and devoted + aggresive would be good?

[gritty basin]

not sure, my strider is 100% helpful, aggressive and independant, it usually mines whenever i point at something or do Need resources! emote

[short flicker]

Independent and devoted are opposites

[foggy shuttle]

Do creatures not mine on their own?

[umbral helm]

and there's gonna be another one hatching in 20 minutes

[lethal garden]

anyone figured out how to make the robot dog things white and red yet? Gold nugget made it green and antimatter made it purple

[tawny nova]

two weeks ago today, Trilitee was born on the strange world of Oughto, and it just so happens i visit their home star pretty much at the exact time they age up

i entered photo mode, and when i exited they were an adult

though much smaller than their brethren they're still quite the beast

[lethal garden]

If I make a creature smaller will it move faster when i ride it?

[foggy shuttle]

Says it’s .2m but doesn’t look like it

Still pretty small tho

[short flicker]

Yo, I saw something on Reddit

Gimme a sec

While you’re at it, https://reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/lo4doj/egg_sequencer_update/

Has links to some stuff already pinned, but also the material effects and some general info

[neat jolt]

I checked the stickies and didnt see anything but is there a guide to what the stats of a pet mean?

[shut magnet]

Read the first comment

If you still have questions, feel free to ping me

[neat jolt]

Haha almost all of my pets are playful and gentle.

[true path]

Currently testing the new movement module for companions. Don't quote me on this, but it seems like it allows companions to travel further without disappearing.

Mine just went 130u away and still hasn't disappeared.

[shut magnet]

New movement module?

[true path]

Movement Tracker, from the QS shop

[shut magnet]

Oh the attachment

[true path]

A site has suggested that it's for automatically displaying fauna icons on the map. It's definitely not pulling up exotic fauna, so I kinda doubt that.

[shut magnet]

Lol ok

Community has such high expectation of features

[true path]

I'm just curious what it does, if anything.

I would hope HG wouldn't lock something for companions without it at least having some purpose.

[shut magnet]

Feels like cosmetic is purpose enough

[fickle grail]

i feel like some does work

[true path]

The description says it "generates detailed analytics reports of creature traversal habits, to provide explorers with insight into the secret lives of their animal companions...". Fairly confident this is cosmetic. At most it will unlock certain dialogue.

I'd be happy with dialogue. Didn't expect these to have grand effects.

[shut magnet]

Alrighty, time to motivate myself to get to a net Cafe and continue this game

You guys are doing all the work documenting features

[torn cloak]

do we know how many different classes of pets there are yet?

[meager shale]

like how many pets exist ?

[torn cloak]

i.e. robots which only have a chest slot. 4 legged pets that have 2 flank slots, 2 legged pets with a chest and back slot.

[meager shale]

pets like plants and minerals are randomly generated

in theory

[torn cloak]

so, for example, no lasers on robots or 2 legged pets.

[meager shale]

a you mean that kind

thus i dont know

[torn cloak]

i think striders have 2 legs, but probably have flank mount points.

[gritty basin]

yeah striders have only flank mounts, but rexs have chest and flank

[shut magnet]

@true path got pet to kill haz bloater plant

[short flicker]

There's only a small amount of animals out there, believe it or not. Especially as far as what can be tamed.

[shut magnet]

I got away from the plant about 50u, walk towards it until 20u away. Stop, pet continue to walk forward, pet stops, comments about plant, kills plant.

[short flicker]

Once you notice the types, you notice a lot with the same animations, sounds, and general body types. Ruins the sense of discovery for you a bit, but helps you realize what's what.

It lets you see a 1.3M thing that looks like a rodent, realize it's actually a dino, and allow you to try and sequence it into a larger diplo.

Also, I found a rodent that's larger than what the game allows you to breed them. 2.8m, tried to make him bigger and he shrunk to 2.5m.

[neat jolt]

what happens when you overdose in the gene sequencer?

I got a huge adorable dopey creature to lay and egg and decided to see what I can do with it.

first egg ever

the parent was 65% playful 24% gentle and 46% devotion
