it's a "baby" maybe?
what does that mean
How big can you modify a creature?
they were prob suggesting that since they're "infant", maybe they'd grow older looking differently? i'm doubtful that's the case. in my experience, with more standard looking creatures at least, i've seen two look different even if they're the same species...as in the show distinct characteristics, and it's unrelated to gender or age.
ginormous lol from what i've seen in screenshots of some gigantic pets out there at least.
i dunno the specific measurements though. i assume that'd be relative to the creature or type of creature. we do have some pins in this channel with helpful references in Reddit on what material to use in the sequencer for size. maybe in those threads, they also discuss any sequencing limitations for size, as in how many times players sequenced till they no longer see any more change...(?)
Now Iβm exited
hehe big
interesting position
I found this cute fella in Eissentam. My first butterfly pet π₯°
How big can I get these butterflies to go?
I have a third generation egg from a line of butterflies - the second gen parent had its size maxed according to the egg sequencer - but this egg will not take more carbon for size
Piss crystal
What's your current one at?
Mine "maxed" at 3m apparently
Same, 3m
3m pretty big
Hello! I'm looking to aquire some eggs! I can trade any number of things for them if someone has spares. Units, nanites, storage slots, salvage data, living ship eggs you name it.
I call himβ¦Big Chungus
I....I just hatched this creature. I may have overdosed it on oxygen
You don't say
Wondering if anyone has managed to find a different colored crystal creature like the one shown here. I thought i saw someone post a black one that was a bit more roundish but lost the post and never found it again.
I like the look of that planet too!
thanks!
another weird one, on cabled planet
bubble creature!
Euclid?
Glutto :]
ill try to breed it,dont know if it would even give the same shape as the parent is completly different
Actually a cool base
Could I trade with you for one of those creature eggs?
I could give you one of these or some tainted metal
@near flame I would give it to you no charge but unfortunately that picture is about a week old. I actually bred him two more times (erasing the one before each time) and his children got so big that they glitched through the groundπ. So I ended up having to erase his whole bloodline. But yeah I just maxed out my flying beetle not too long ago
@fallen island thanks man, means a lotππΎ
Can we expect NMS to add Raytracing one day? >:O or is that too far fetched
sorry, i didnt notice this. it's in lousongola, if you need help getting it lmk
I found the same type on another planet in Euclid. Excuse my trash video on my travel laptop.
I got a butterfly snake one that's orange
And a big ol glowing yellow soccerball
And some weird thing that looks like a kids drawing of an octopus
The noises those lil blood bubble creatures make are adorable 
LOL he knows something we don't know....
Torus critters probably not rideable? Says incompatible size
can you tame the bubbles and pets which look like anomalies now?
My pet butterfly keeps screaming and growling at me.
so cute n aggressive
my piss crystals father is the same guy
the planet is a frothing one,yes
?
my planet
are we on the same planet?
She's still growing (just hit Juvenile) π
Waiting for the right QS mission is tiring business ^^
The Rainbow Bubbles are tamable but you can't ride or decorate them
That's pretty much what my planet looks like too.
Ahhh gotcha! The balls made of eyes too?
I'm don't know what you are talking about there.
It's like, the ball creatures that roll across the ground
Which can be found on the "weird blue" planets etc
I wish I had a picture of it
Ah I haven't seen it I'm still new myself. I think you are limited though to companions that don't fly, burrow, or roll. You'd need to check though I mean you'd think the Balloon flys but it just actually floats. I still want a better look at the Massive Dragon I saw once.
Ahh sounds interesting
And yea I have played quite a bit, but not enough to be able to describe the weird creatures I have seen

Since Prisms you can also tame and ride flying companions, but only the low fliers. And what I got so far, it looks that only flying creatures added by The Prisms can be tamed. Also unlike the ground ones, you need to give directly pellet to one, as just throwing it into air doesn't make them to go to eat it.
But you can see if you can tame creature by going near it and if you see "Press e to feed the creature.", it can be tamed.
Nice... now if only I could manage to find all the flora on a planet for once
Land on this planet, and this is the first thing i see... Like, yo, bro's, what is going on here... All I saw from a distance was all their tails wagging around...
Hah, that was meant to go here for others also... The life support plants count too!
There is about 10 of them in that single spot by the way. So many meaty chunks for me tum
Was, was, about 10 of them....
Also, don't be a bonehead!
Eissantam, cool floating orb creature
they sound adorable
So I'm doing Leap in the Dark, left the planet after getting back in my ship, called the Anomaly and then accidentally teleported back to my friend who was at our base. I did not go to the space station there because I am dumb. Help me.
It changed to be near me after I restarted like 3 times
Asking in the room devoted to critters probably won't get an answer fast, hah.
No idea. You don't want to use the help channel, that's on you, heh.
I found an orb-friend
What are you able to change on robot fauna through the egg sequencer? can you change what's on their back or legs?
You can have flying companions. I have a big butterfly of sorts lol
You can have sorta flying companions. Low fliers only. Flying companions...you can't even interact with flying animals.
Grrs distant cousin, maybe.
Flying protogek being hunted by a horned raptor beast
Creatures are procedurally generated. This screenshot is of a creature nobody knows about, so there's no telling where it is.
There's also no telling if that creature was genetically modified in any way
I just found one not to long ago
They probably have similiar features as the random nature is bound to line up at some point, but it is not likely (if not impossible) that you've found an exact replica of that creature
Apparently the near perfect stegosaurus replica counts as explicit materials. No photo and portal location for you!
Can someone tell me what you are able to change on robot fauna? I tried sequencing one and I got the same pet just smaller with a different gender and personality. Are you able to change the appearance (as in color or head shape)?
you can change color and shape, heres a pin for color #nms-fauna message
i didnt see one for shape
oh cool thank you
a trick you can use, wait for your egg timer to run out then make a save. then you can use the gene editor, hatch the egg to see how it changed and reload if you want to try something different
would this count as a t-rex or does the face not work?
Anyone want a massive 100+mtr tall diplo before i cook up the egg for breakfast
I would like a giant Diplo, maybe we can meet up tomorrow
youve probably realized its 2d, but what you wouldnt know without vr is that its one sided. you cant look at it from the back on desktop, but its completely invisible there
Now that's efficiency
Cant remember who wanted it, but I have an egg for this if you still need/want it π
Hey, I'm I able to get the egg? I've been looking for a pet like that for a while.
Flying fart fish?
What galaxy is that?@elder prawn
Shoot. Sorry, thought I had a pic with portal coordinates. I don't even have a picture >.>
For the robots, that is. Have exactly the same, as far as I can see. Heh
I'm talking about the flying fish, I went to his coords in Euclid but it wasn't there
Hey yeah sure! I'll be on in the morning. π
Einesstam
Love the robot pet
That's alot of omelettes
Jeez lol
What is that for?
Feeding an army
Prolly a Diplo..
Thicc boi diplo π
I like mine with mushroomsπ€£π
hello ! dos anyone know which is the best flying pet to play in fps ? no view pb with wings, great control.. ?
if yes, can u post a screen of that kind of pet
You can have one of these if you like. They are rideable, and you see nothing. Not the best of control though
I'll have 50.
The planet I got them from has literally hundreds flying around, its insane. haha. I wish you could have that many eggs! 6 egg limit sucks. π¦
π
Ok Ok, I got myself smoking fishy
do you have glyphs for location@delicate pelican
ho nice, i ve never seen this pet yet. For the best flying of control, u suggest the butterfly ?
is the control of the pet u show is like the flying fish ?
can you sit on its head?
I am sitting on his head in that screenshot lol
oh lol i didnt even realise i thought that that was just a part of its head
Hahaha
In my experience, these have the best control. But I'm sure I haven't rid them all. haha.
hi Saladin how are u? π yes i have one like this in yellow, first time i saw a green one. Yesterday i find a kind of pet i never seen before : it looks like an alien fish : so no wings pb, and control not bad but not as good as this butterfly
im asking about trying to catch a flying pet which look like the butterfly without wings. I ever seen many like this but they fly high. I dont know if all can be catched or if we can catch just low flyers
this is this pet
yes i had
yes
and this one is my favorite "dog" pet ^^
a mix between shark and whale
but which play like a dog lol. the problem is that he always go kill all other pets
komodo dagron!
shark whale dog? so is birb or is fish?
or is dog?
lol its many things in one π his nature is pretty fun
i found him in a hostil desert and dark planet, in a yellow system
nice π
No
fusion igniter.. in egg sequencer.. π§
Hah..
When you're ballin so hard you tryna put a stack of fusion igniters in egg sequencer lol
this fella sure does have a lot of legs (eissentam)
if i make em bigger will they be worth 30 mil? π
Lol
I thought he was trying to inject fusion igniters in the egg π
true true, recolor the diplo with diamonds π
Hah
Gold plated Diplo live sized statue.. π
Speaking of Diplo's think mine is too hot on my current planet...
It shrunk... A lot π
oh no!
This π
To this π .. I want a refund
Wow..
Uhr screenshot lol
1 sec..
Dunno what happenend there lol
Hey! Sorry, unfortunately I dont have a base or egg for that pet. Sorry! π But as gleam said you certainly can tame them, Sometimes you can feed them from a rather considerable distance.
Say hi to Guardie! They were going to be named "Goldy" but I liked what the game picked.
.bot
nice ducky pet xD he is fun. U find it in desertic planet? fire planet ? i ve never seen duck pet like this
Cold planet and yea also first time i bumped into one while getting emeril/cadmium for someone else lol
I kept a screenshot with glyphs around on my ps5
Tallneck from Horizon Zero Dawn living edition
Exactly my thoughts too. One of my favorite games of all time tbh. If I could find that but in robotic form.. hah..instant adaption π
maybe try ark , there is an option to have robotic creatures. A dlc (genesis?) is about robotic mobs
Personally ark is my favorite ^^
@crimson needle I did play ark ages ago not been keeping up to date with DLC's tbh, might have to look into it
Tamed and augmented these in the past, never seen a 'rainbow' coloured one though. Pretty cool.
the Flying Spaghetti Monster
Thats a Shuckle
new horizon zero dawn soon π
dress like your pet day π π
this one is so cute! which planet is it from if i may ask?
@foggy brook yeah i just saw it.
Saw what, I'm missing the coords if they are there
Rareish
Yeah it seems
Less than they were though
Found a t-rex like fauna yesterday.
Which coords do those ones go to Singular?
Ok cool, im looking for one like Caesar asked about without any fins or anything on its head. Every set of coords I have looked up have been really old and are not valid anymore. All the creatures have changed since then
@rapid igloo the head looks very dragon like. Which i like. A shame that this exact diplo is not in the game. Such teasers!
π
yeah i have it : Ark ! ^^
That one I found on a Blighted planet. π
Thank you. I would ask for the planet address but i wouldn't know how to get there π
I have a base saved there, I can help you get it if you really want π
Oh really? Ya that would be great π will DM cus im not in game rn, but will be a bit later. Thank you!
Yeah neither am I, DM me and we'll organise it π
The fact it decreased itβs size when I summon it pisses me off
Was it bigger, and got smaller when you tamed it?
You can always augment it to make it bigger if you really want
Yes 
Resting, exploring abandoned systems with my buddy.
wait, animals sit down when you do?? i never knew that!
They react in yes and no to a few and then will sit go and come.
Go and come I know are obvious but still, it all works in the actual gesture menu
i like how u can take anomalous animals as pets
_B A L L _

Snirb
If youβve ever read the book βWhere The Wild Things Areβ you know that this kinda looks like those things
Y e s
I didn't quite have plans to delve into the companion system until later, but I liked this guy.
That bull skipped head day
it's more like a sheep who didn't skip any days
love lol
yeah im soo mad. I went back and now it has no horns
dog
@near arrow could just be that when you went back you only saw the opposite sex. Check around more and you will probably find a horny one π€£
Yeah I went back after 3 hours and they had horns again
they grow up so fast...
(aka i just learned that size on a planet's surface is different from the size in the anomaly or on a space station)
(this was. a bit of a shock)
for scale, look below the weapon for my character's jetpack streak
I remember during the Pre-Foundation those things kept killing me in packs
bad dogs!
you do apparently π
just play with its genetics at the sequencer lol
I found a thing off a radioactive rock a planet or two ago.
I tamed it cause it looked cool, but I learned shortly after that it moves pretty fast when asked to sprint
Great companions for a ride.
Now I'm just curious if the colors on its glow are available for changing
ball-ier
mirror-surface sphere. can be ridden. super weird, had to buddy it.
Electrode looking a bit odd here
i see it more like the avatar: the last airbender, his air-ball ride
I called it Primal Groudon (a stretch?)
I'm new, I heard you can play with genes. Is there a way I can breed this guy to stand upright?
I don't know the extent to which you can splice genes, but it'd either take generations - given you'd probably want to avoid overdosing the specimen - or it's just not possible to be that selective. I have to do some more research about the whole gene-splicing thing, I usually just increase their size & behaviour and change their colours.
Based
Yeah I just heard limbs and that could change. It's based on a Pokemon that is on 2 legs so I thought it'd be cool to do that if you could.
the entire head could change from like a TRex to a Rat or a Clown Bird
anyone know how to sneak up on a flying creature
i'm on a planet with these flying worm things that don't seem to land
and every time i build a pillar or something to get up to their level they just move higher
If they are flying high and don't seem to ever land then you can't tame them.
B. Nanogayera. 134.9kg / 2.5m / Euclid
Tyrannosaurus Rat - Elkupalos
knee high protogek, Elkupalos
He's going places, no one can stop him.
dude has places to be, he was zoomin lol
Elkupalos
im just realizing i should be listing the planets. crap. next time π€¦ββοΈ
Those portal coords will take you to the right planet I believe
My lil angel
Gorgeous 
moments before disaster
Bit big for a shoulder cat π
New family member
he doesn't like it when I say i'm gonna put his home address here on discord
two diff breeds of umbrella robodogs, Euclid
GekDuck, Elkupalos
these two on the same planet as GekDuck
thought id bring this to share, a planet with both beetles and butterflies
Its not as nice as it may look extreme toxicity so come a bit prepared. Planet nufordeneb . Euclid
looks beautiful! toxic or not
You can! @charred acorn
@zinc geyser i thought you couldnt make flying animals pets, or do those count as ground animals?
any that land you can tame
except the newer stocky fliers
IIRC, they land sometimes and you can interact with them. But you can also boost up in the air and interact while airborne.
good to know, thanks!
Werewolf?..
My pet π
- Could gene splitting change the anatomy of a creature that roams on all 4s to one that walks on 2?
- Does the size increase stack across generations? (can I continue to make them bigger?)
wow that's sick
- Yes, they get progressively bigger but there's a limit I think. I know for butterflies it's like 3 meters.
As for 1, I don't think that's feasible but that's where I reach the limits of my knowledge.
Its possible for the dog like bipeds to become quads through it, so its liable to reverse is true as well
And yeah, most creatures cap at 6-8 meters in height, my diplo is currently at 24 meters tall though and i cant increase it further
So uh should i only grow and make my pets more gentle on the first go at it.
Its just a matter of how you want your pets to be. 4 of my 6 have max aggression, and they hunt for me occasionally and handle their own hunger so they dont need to be fed. As to size thats your call
Oniijialdu
Are they wild cats wild dogs or T-Rex and Raptors
The ones ive seen hunt of them are the dogs and rex/raptor things
Pets that are too large dont seem to hunt though
Also in my experience though im not entirely certain they look to only hunt if the climate is the same as their native one
I found a big bird. I think it is a protogek. It is... very large and fast. Will send pic later
uhhh
have you been using mods for these? mine always cap out at around 1.8 meters, no matter how many cycles i do
Nope! This one stands around 3m or so in the companion stats, but could be just the specific breed that you picked up. What was the original height?
1.6Meters or so, been getting it to 150% overload in the gene sequencer for some time now but it capped out at 1.8m after the first one
thought they were capped like other, more exotic animals are
Hmm thats odd. Mine was around 1.5m when i started
If you want, i can throw you an egg for your troubles!!
all good, just means i am doing something wrong π what materials do you feed for growth? might be superstitious of me, but that might help
I use platinum!
i run an insta-hatch mod, so i can always experiment very fast
thank you, will look into it π
Oh!!
Mind helping me out then? We can explore color combos together :))
@lusty fractal im a creature trader and maybe we could work together to set up a trading catalogue!
i sadly dont think i have the time necessary for that, as much as it hurts to say π however, i do think robot companions use the same color palettes as our build menu has, since i am pretty sure they use the same textures
Oh thats awesome! Ill have to explore that
Well DM me or tag me if you run into any issues, have any questions, or want any specific animal!
will get back with my success and/or failures regarding the growth here for sure, thank you π
also, i highly recommend the mod if you do this stuff regularly
couldnt imagine waiting for the counter each day
so how does the growth hormone thing work
just got my 1st egg from my dragon looking companion and it says i can give it a growth hormone
nvm
Rocksteady? is that u?
I found a 6m beattles
Whenever you are trying to grow a pet,mutate it or whatever, make sure you put in as much of the material you are using as possible. You want it to be 100%
not necessarily. In the anatomy section you will get variation through different percents
I have a quick question about the anatomy mutations. When I get the egg back and it gives me a summary of what happens it always says "Anatomy: Inherited", did it actually change something or do I need to keep mutating it? I'm trying to mutate a beetle
I've tried looking through the pins, sorry if I missed the answer I've found my own answer. They do change even when it says inherited
Are creatures the size they'll be forever when hatched or do they grow over time?
I had an egg that said it would be large but what hatched was half the size of the parent.
They grow up, they are just babies when hatched
Okay, cause I spent a tonne of resources to get an egg to large and the hatched creature was tiny. Was not happy.
Ionized cobalt from my experience is best for growing. also baby dinos are only half their max size until theyre adults. you can resequence an egg several times, until it says inherited after adding
smol battlecrab
Frank
First ever companion! Her name is Whisper :)
I saw these things on the planet I first spawned on and knew, for a FACT I had to come back and tame one ASAP.
And I just saw this thing and had to tame it.
Big beefy spider.
Wait so i can just max out the height on a creature by using the resequencer multiple times on the same egg?
Yeah. Somethimes youll hit an lower then max cap, but you can keep raising on the next egg
My life has been a lie.
Ive been only resequencing them once and then waiting to hatch until i hit max cap.
24 meter diplo would not exist if i had to go one by one
Brb currently hitting my head into the wall of pure self shame
I mean if you're willing to look into mods, gpack or something on nexus mods removes egg and growing timers. Makes things much faster
I would do that if xbox would let me
that's the most catlike head I've seen
it looks so a n g e r y
Ive got 2 mostly pure wolfdogs, but i need a cat
Ratasaur, Euclid
nice
π¦
How long does it take for a baby pet to grow
I have a thing that looks like a leathery tiger with horns that is already large but has weird proportions
You can visit it's native planet and scan for adult species, this will give you a look at your pet grown up
Also, pups have bigger heads
I've heard grow up time depends on species or size, can be from 24 to 48 hours
There are mods that let you get rid of pet timers - instant adult/elder pet, instant egg laying and hatching
Looks like a new living ship model.
big walkin' fella
HI BILL
HELLO
Thicc cat having his first baby tonight! Gonna make him purdier colors. Will be my first time ever making an egg. (Just came back after a loooong absence.)
Also, more cats! Six leggies on this boi
And one very very smol fuzzy
That is a nice kitty! π
Quick Q: When savescumming an egg hatch... will you always get the same Gene Splitter results regardless of what ingredients you use? I thought I read that somewhere
Check the pins for more info.
Purple robotic fauna found in Euclid, Traveller for scale
This puppy is big, around 5 times the size of my interloper I think
i love Bill π
BILL LOVES U 2
Ill take 100
Cute 
Rat
Fluffy 
probably doesn't look so good on planets without red grass
I like that he matches his environment 
I want to boop the snoot
I think it'll chomp ya
Love the expression on him, looks like he's tired of ya existing
My dog makes this same face when you take his toys
some lucky screenshots id say most of hem are just generic
"Leave"
?
He's describing the expression
oh lol
It looks like a possum hahahaha it so cute
I made a google drive with fauna colors and the dyes used, feel free to use and share https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1AMliRuTNAeSyCWyZcJI-Sk_saihy1MPm?usp=sharing
So I understand that it takes time for a pet to grow up but do they have to be out of their pokeball that whole time?
lol pokeball. but no they don't
also if you don't want to wait there is a mod on pc that allows you to skip the timer
On console unfortunately. And thanks it just seems like its been a week since I hatched the bugger and it still says hes an infant.
yeah from what I know it's 5 days until you can hatch an egg and 10 until it's an adult
maybe its 15 till an adult
Oh okay thank you for the help!
Anyone else here ever got a bug where creatures on your game were less furry than for other people?
I'm running at literal max settings
I got one of those flying Beetle things
First generation results, Storm Crystal color pallet. Working on making not-mothra and recording the colors as I go.
Floating crystal flora on a columned planet, Euclid galaxy (note it can't be ridden nor have accessories)
Some triceratops-like animal in Euclid
i found one of those too
Canβt tame this one apparently, but I wish I could. I love that it looks so phallic in design and the additional observations reads; βhighly fertileβ.
Are you on pc?
Yes
Thereβs a mod that allows you to tame those types of creatures
I think I found it. (Companion unlocker). Going to try it later. Now just to find one to fix the Minotaur view point. (Why the put it so low Iβll never know).
Yeah thatβs the one
I had a nightmare trying to scan one of these when I found them, they're crazy fast
I was able to start the scan from range and it kept scanning while even though I wasnβt looking at it.
GUYS I FOUND IT
i found a planet with this thing on it
I wonder if you can get a Rex with this head
Was this Euclid, btw?
Adorable 
Can I has
yis, glyphs are in the pic i believe. dont remember planet name, but its the volcanic biome one
unless you dont have access to Elkupalos, in which case DM me and i can take you later or smthn
yeah, they eat gravitino balls what chads
So is it possible to "mess up" genetics? I have found almost no difference between the last few generations of dinosaurs. They all end up like this no matter what I put into the anatomy slot.
I've found that some creatures just don't develop mutations... and some creatures always mutate even if you don't put anything in the gene splitter. I'm guessing it's intended in their genetics, but it's frustrating
My egg description keeps saying "inherited" on all traits despite the sequencer saying they were unstable - is that just a bug?
Wow... found a planet that looks kinda like a hilly savannah with a load of turtle, dinosaur, and demon cats! Would totally build a base here if it weren't for the high sentinel population. Grabbed a dino cat for good measure
Dino cat
From a diff planet... hoping to mutate out this crazy head, because I love everything else
And finally - a genetically mutated baby I'm currently raising. Rhino hexacat
how do you get at the flying worms to tame them
whenever i pillar up to them they just fly away from me
you canβt tame them without mods but if you do have the mod for them itβs easiest to change your interaction distance
@hot trail
not without a mod
mmk
what about those things that look like ploughs with the tentacles poking out the back
that skid along the ground stupid fast
same thing
mmm, i chased one of those for the better part of an hour
on an extreme weather planet too
yea
oh well then you could get the mod and be able to tame them
isn't that just client side tho
ah, do you know if the skiddy bois are rideable?
cause they're roughly as fast as a jetpack lunge
ah
rip
does this apply to all birds?
yeah I have one that I canβt tide. Says incomparable size
or do you need mods to get them too
Havenβt tried any others
Need mods as well for them
wait do what did the prisms update actually do?
idk I got the game after prisms
cause it says they're now tamable but if you can't get close enough what's the point
birds?
Thereβs only a few flying creatures that can be tamed, mostly big butterfly looking things
Basically only the new flying creatures added in Origins are tameable
The low flying ones
graphics i guess
like flying raviolis
How do i know what i add to the egg do? i mean in the egg sequencer.
Which part of "see the pins" don't you understand?
pc?
I look at it my mistake
Yes, I got it tamed now. Just applied the companion unlock mod.
So you understand good
Yup, once I knew it needed a mod it was no big issue. I just need to come up with a name for the the species, Iβm having an equally tough time naming a similar type that is just a wheel.
Never seen such a weirdo before-Euclid
He's doing his best ok.
Weird, the animal he ate counted as a creature pellet. I didn't have to feed him to tame him
I have never found a companion that's faster than just sprinting/jetpacking.... Do they exist?
None of them are faster than jetpacking
But yes some are faster than sprinting, the roboantelopes for example
I mostly just ride my.oet when I need to get somewhere but also have to do stuff in my inventory, aim the pet where you wanna go and he keeps walking while you much around.

Can I get the coordinates to get it
What's the max height of the triceratops type creatures?
Nope
if you get rollers big enough can you ride them?
Eissenteim beautiful dino
I need a pet/companion that's abnormally helpful right off the bat. Seems all of the critters I've found lean towards a mischievous nature.
Any ideas?
If you have the materials, you can pump the desired stats in one generation by repeatedly feeding the egg at the splicer.
off the bat it will be pure rng
So... Put the egg through the sequencer.. put it back in and repeat?
ye
you still have to add the materials again
it will stop telling you stats are going up when it caps out
is it possible to ride rollers
You're awesome! Thanks!
I wonder just how large -very large- is.....lmao... I did all kinds of experimentation with my bubble pet (except for the size because I'm trying to keep it roughly the same.)
My latest fave find - a winged feline with lovely colors
new buddy π Euclid
Ive never been able to and i had a pretty big one. :/
I want to blow up the planet where this thing lives
It scares me
I want it to die
cute!
Ooh pretty puppy β€οΈ
I want it it's cute
I have one pet slot that I just keep replacing with the biggest boi I can find. As of 2 minutes ago, it's this big guy. 6.4m
New friend..83% dutiful and aloof right off the bat!
Might i interest you in a 24 meter tall diplo egg
If you can pass those over, then yes please.
Ill get on now then if you can
I'll DM you
At least it's not tiny spitting crabs
What's the max height for the triceratops types?
How do colours work with the camo bots? Do incompatible colours cancel out the pattern or the other way around?
is it actually possible to tame flying creatures without save edits?
not with save edits but mods. And no itβs not for most of them
@hot trail
there are I think 4 or 5 types that you can catch but any bird or glizzard canβt be caught normally
ah ok
is glizzard the official term now? i agree to this π
I donβt think they should ever have another name. Glizzard fits too well
agreed
You came up with it right?
i did not come up with the word glizzard lol, but i did start calling the flying alligators glizzards a long time ago
ahh yeah thatβs what I meant lol
π
np
How fast are these guys?
Same speed as most bipedal deers
Do bipedal deer have same max height as rex?
I dont think so
If I want to roughly double the size of my companion, how much percentage do I want to put into the egg sequencer?
100% in my testing it doesn't always double size straight away in will take a generation or 2.
some 2 legged deer i found
they sure do look tasty
Chickendeer
bear type creature
t rex creature
Just hatched this absolute unit
nice
found this weird zebra/bear hybrid thing (eissentam)
Has anyone hatched a companion and it is invisible?
Cannot interact with it either
This guy looks like a who from the grinch, but like radioactive
Bruh
It eats with its proboscis?
found this triceratops
Six-legged rhino-chamele-cat
another trex i found
new bb
Basically a spinosuar, 5.0m... eventually... 100% stats on Playful/Aggressive/Loyal. It's pretty much a scaly dog.
it is also a creature of happiness.
Looks like a walking fuzzy chicken wing
I'm still trying to figure out genetics. Size, personality? Easy. Colors? Gotta do some testing, trail and error. As for the actual mutations, thus far only when overdosed did I get a noticeable change. But. That mutation was carried down the entire genetic line three generations later. My most recent egg, pictured, was actually from the -original- companion without modification. Outside of colors, size and personality, it isn't any different. I can't seem to crack any pattern with this.
got this one has a pet
I think I found a Pokemon or something

Cutie
You arent going to make that smaller
haha i figured
How do I get feeding pellets?
you unlock the recipe as you keep doing the quest line
Okay
that's a furby ππ
It looks surprised
There's a pin in this channel for colors of dinos that seems accurate, as for genetic mutations I haven't been able to identify a pattern
You can also just look up the color patterns on YouTube. I know Jason Plays did a video abt it
Yeah moreso trying to figure out mutations then colors/personality
they seem genetic/random
Found Sid from Ice Age lol
Those are cool but can't be tamed right?
I encountered one of those yesterday.
right. some burrowing animals will actually eat pellets (or seem to be attracted to them anyway), but produce no faecium or allow the player to tame them (no interaction prompt)
they tried, but they dug holes all over the anomaly. Took polo weeks to fix it.
π€£
My beautiful babies. I took a pretty long break from the game and just came back with the frontier hype.
Do mechanical pets grow? If I hatch an infant, will it get bigger?
yes
anyone ever encounter an issue with the egg sequencer giving back all inherited traits regardless of what you put inside it?
Yeah... I've experienced it always mutating even if I don't modify the egg, or always pulling inherited traits even if I mutate the egg
tbh I thought it was intended... like some creatures just have strong dominant and/or recessive genes
it seems to be doing that for any egg i throw in there, i cant imagine i have four different eggs that would do that right?
unless youve found its a really common thing
Honestly it's been like 50/50
oh wow, that's a lot higher than i expected lol
Yeah, higher than I'd want, lol
did you end up getting any of the further generations to change dye colors and stuff at all? or did you just give up on trying to mutate those lines
I gave up unfortunately
gotcha, a shame that eggs being unchangeable seems to be such a high chance/is a thing at all lol thanks for the info and gl on your travels!
Good luck to you too! :>
Cool spiny deer/anteater hybrid thing I found (Eissentam)
bruh
its all the bugs in one
i cant make this lil dude a pet and my day is ruined;(
i cant tame my normal turtle
Anyone else hyped for monstosity pet
LMAO, I went to a planet that has just bubbles and I found a floating bubble with water inside of it that pees
(Image coming soon)
its an odd bubble with rainbow liquid, it leaks some red substance
on its planet it looks like water, but i dunno where the planet is anymore
Is it an animal??
Yes Iβve had one as a pet before
look at this
its an odd creature
that there's a blood balloon
Meet tiny
Wow itβs so cute
He's just baby!
Has anyone noticed that the pets seem to be bigger than before the update dropped?
I thought that!
Took me ages to get him like this tho this is the 3rd modified egg
Well, a 2.5m bone cat that was about my character's height before the update is twice my size now and a 5m Rex is now shaking the ground when it walks after the update and wasn't before and is huge.
Which galaxy? They're so cute
Look at this boi!
It won't be able to produce eggs for a bit
I guess I could give you an egg of its parent
I gave it 80 oxygen capsules for its color scheme
Are all rideable pets the same speed?
Well, let me know when you can lay an egg, I'd rather not leave it to RNG π
Plus, oxygen capsules aren't a thing anymore.
you can use the pet unlocker mod if yer on pc. if not gimme a location and i can get you an egg from one later
Red one is called devil, big frill collar is gia, and little guy with feelers is loki
What was the parent's color scheme like? Though admittedly I know nothing about the system - the shape of the creature is cute and I'd love to get an egg from it or its parents eventually
Yo does some1 have any snake pet cords?
Is this lizard cat thing one of the non-random/less-random creatures? I feel like I've seen it before
Yep! I think it's generally called a Demon Cat. I've found them several times. They can have varying proportions but the features are the same
Makes sense
π
Do u have cords for the one with the neck frill?
Did anyone else notice any of their companions change after the recent update?
My favorite boy's spots changed color... they were pink, and they are now teal
Old: #nms-fauna message
The system I found him in is now acting like a totally new system that I never discovered?
idk if it's just the lighting, but I think his body color is a bit greener tooi
!hg

Okay... I actually traveled to the system, and the planets now DO show them as discovered, but the Fauna are all undiscovered
Went to his planet and re-discovered his species! They are still there, just with the color change. Here's the coords, btw, if anyone else wants a fairly "normal" big cat!
(Eissentam, btw)
The same planet has some other cool fauna, like this glowy boi
Found this guy while on a Nexus mission
Found this one and 1more on [CENSORED] Planet, Euclid
@cyan thunder@slim heart@ocean hawk
This was the coords for the parent
Mine is max sized and will look like that when grown
Its still a baby and has the baby proportions
Ah, appreciated! I don't think I actually have enough of the glyphs to use the portal-thing yet but good to know
That one looks like something straight out of Horizon Zero Dawn, whoa
Umm no sorry
@copper kayak i can give you an egg in game tho?
5.9m flying Beetles on this planet right here
Ice turtles
Tortal
aggressive boi, excited by violence. he also bops you pretty hard when attacking
Np
I bred a Rex and it came out with huge gross claws where did I go wrong injecting Ramdom things into an egg lol
i found a therizino looking dino
or well more like a ugly raptor
This ones my favorite so far
It looks like quartz
To me it looks like marble
very big moth, about to test if I can make the third generation bigger or if this is the cap.
also dinosuar
Regardless, while sad I have to remake my survival base and get the new stuff, I suppose keeping a "moth dock" off the tree house would be a good idea.
i thought you couldnt get flying ones??????? @cerulean root
though your dino looks better then my 2
Moths and beetles are the exception. I like to think because I made a fuss about it and Sean was scared I was going to show up at his house with a jar of bees.
Some swamp world in Isdoraijung. I didn't put down a base computer sadly.
I'd have to go look for it, isn't on my home planet.
Is there a way to inject the genetics so it only changes the body, specifically stuff sticking out the back, of a rex and not the head or anything else.
Tutel where do i find this one i wanna pet him
The coords are in the screenshot!
that's horrifying. where can I get one
Yes, I've said it 3 billion times before but I'll say it again: whomever wrote the companion interactions needs a raise.
Thanks!
Honestly I agree. I love them so fuckin much
In my D&D game my druid perma-turned a hobgoblin into a chipmunk and adopted it and the companion dialogue reminds me of the chipmunk's and it cracks me up
look at this cute baby.. preserves the blood of its enemies π₯Ί
Mole/turtle hybrid I found on a volcanic planet, too bad it's not tameable
H-hi
You know how there's those like, optical illusion paintings where you think it's one thing but it's actually another
I thought this was just some kind of alien elephant until I looked closer
Found in Euclid on the Planet Irvinum. Kind of a mix between a Dodo and a T-Rex
Omg I like him
how do I get the desired traits on an egg
everytime I reload autosave it gives the same trait regardless of dose or material
Lesser mushroom beetle, looks like it's greeting you
Butterfly, same planet
There are some other cool things there too
guys does anyone have glyphs for a boar headed predator
is the information given in this comment still valid? I wanna do a pet that can dig out recources as good as possible so i need to know lol
No Way, thatβs so cool

TBF, if you think about it those are aliens, we have no idea if life on other planets even "breathes" the way we know
A lot of things about the current update are unknown. Try it and see.
Awww ok fine
I just got one of those huge knuckle walking predator Fauna but I have to 10 hours for it lay an egg.
I got one 2. At first I pronounced it like el-dorado
dude, 1. coolest being i've seen.
2. How fucking big is it??
The playfulness level of my last pet generation seems to be stuck in 100%. Is this a bug?
like 100m long or something
idk
sad part is tail remains the same size when it evolves to adult
Soo I take it u canβt tame birds still?
nope
Spent about an hour hopping up trying π
you can tame a beetle if you wanna fly some of them go high like 30m
I had a flying snake for a fair bit but just wasnβt a fan
How do you grow your pets?
Where...where is its mouth
i wish the tail grew bigger with the creature
are the pet accessories usefull for anything?
yea the lasers shoot
To my understanding they just provide alternate animations for the most part, might be wrong tho
can i catch any flying creature? this centipede thingy is running away from me
Butterfly, beetles.. jellyfish? idek whats it called but it has a sad face
Wait can u catch worms
oh... welp thats why i wasted 35 minutes catching those centipedes LMAO
Is there smoler worms?
no
Wow
late reply but yes, should be. Follow them with interact pressed and pellets in inventory
can anion help kme out ive just got to the anomaly and i wana get to the big leagues of geear and ships
and get a fiew bases down
How can you actually get your companions to actually help you fight sentinels? My cat is armed to the teeth...100% in Aggression, Helpful and independent...he does nothing but run in circles while I fight the sentinels.
LOL
That is gorgeous, but if it spends most of it's time underground then you probably can't
I was wondering this too, I wanted a body guard, I got something that gets excited about snowstorms and not much else
Mine gets a kick out of wet planets..lmao
Hey hey all, I have a question about lasers and companions, is there something I should do for the, to use mining lasers? Iβve equipped it on them but I have yet to see them use it
They just kind of do it on their own when they feel like it.
Ah ok, I guess she can do it when she wants then
got one of these as a pet
i love the tail thingy it has
It's like a platypus, but less weird
The goodest boi
Mhmm
how are the small spiders called which mime small stones?
I thought mining lasers were a thing you had to like, actually put on the pet, like the other cosmetic things
I have an egg. 100% Dutiful/Ferocious/Adventurous. Currently can get up to around 1.8m tall. Hmu if you want
anyone have a planet where chill people are building bases
If I keep getting egg after egg from a creature could I keep increasing the new eggs height and hit its max, get a new egg, raise that, and keep increasing the creatures size?
There is a cap to how big a certain type of creature can be, like for example the t-rex dinosaur type of creatures are capped at 5m and 200kg i think
the most normal looking animal ive found yet...
anyone have a good guide on pet genetics?

Can u get pet birdss
It looks like a fishing lure
Observation: sings beautifully
Itβs a songbird
My first pet, isn't he just the coolest
very neat
Well it doesnβt resemble itβs parent at all and I think it might die from blood lose or something
bruh he runs on 2 feet as well shits dope
i love it
1st gen
cant wait to spice it up
tho i have no idea what does what lol
@orchid zenith i also have a pig that looks like daedons from ark lol
Ooh nice
Didnβt realise at first how colourful my pet was because it was dark
Very useless though
Still cool
This guy farts a blue smoke trail and flies around I love him
No
no it's legit, tbh I accidently cut out the coolest part of him let me show it in a moment
this is what they look like from a side view, oh its so cool looking
I made a new friend.
Reptar!
that looks cool
So coool
Question about companions, I know I can make them bigger, is it possible to to make them smaller?
If so, whatβs the best ingredient for shrinking them, my gek is a bit sensitive about height
Love
I dont think theres a best persay.
Theres a list in the pins
Perfect seating
@gleaming atlasthat thing lands? i thought those fly around
They only fly but when low enough you can feed and adopt and even ride!
No items on it though
oh but the birds are still not tameable
ive never found the low flying ones like the farting fish
You got coords on this?
No! π’ I forgot to grab them! Found him in a random system while exploring.
Smallest blob I've found so far, interloper for scale (Eissentam)
Do companion accessories make any difference? Just for show, right?
Hi friends I found some birds floating around a base, I can build a platform to get to them but they keep flying away. Are these flying babies not tameable?
looks like this!
Not tameable
Very few flying animals are tamable, sadly
