It's a cat
Might need to put it on multiple gens at 100%, BUT I think some, like hellcats, can't be recoloured
Its a cat, but i have a dog like that
screenshot?
And what you mean by chart?
Color chart, there are 2 of them pinned
Ohh color, well, whichever seems better to you
eggs are less worst because it's only 24h
also, if those items don't get you to 100%, try the craftable minerals
I want a specific color but these 2 charts suggest different things
I'm exploring them, so I'll know only magno gold's color now, but they can be used for other stuff pretty well
ohh
I see
use the newest
well, they seem to be for different kinds of creatures
This is what my questions are about
Which one should be used for creatures i listed?
oh my bad, it's because I haven't seen the chart before
It seems to fit better the first
but still, from what they wrote, yours doesn't fit to any
Make a save. Apply a color. Hatch pet. See what the color is. Reload save as needed
There are a few primary animal species. Robotic, Bonecats, etc. Each category gets different color effects from the same material. I'd guess the cats and dogs are the organic chart, but I'm not an animal expert.
If the material you chose produces a color that corresponds to the chart, you know where you are
I guess ill stick to it, thanks
Does anyone have a specific type of animal they're looking for at the moment? I am always fauna hunting and can keep an eye out!
(My personal hunt right now is a quadrupedal cat with a dome head)
Good luck!
what happens if
i put something in the gene splitter cat
for the whispering companion
oh nvm
it doesnt let you do anything
some companions cant be gene splitter
it looks like hes doing a handstand with those widdwe wegs in the back
Welp. I decided that since this is the official discord that I won't post giant piles of carnivorous companion exrement.
I might encounter the ban hammer.
pretty cool large chicken dinosaur fauna, Euclid
toes (btw, don't remember if it's on Euclid or Eissentam, but it's a paradise found yesterday, full of fauna)
Can you resequence it to change color and anatomy or it's the kind of species that it's fixed?
What's it mean to have a very large and agressice companion?
Do we not have any sources for egg colors on non-bipedal creatures? And is the neural calibrator still reversed?
Aggressive companions I assume will attack things more often, probably sentinels as well but take this with a grain of salt
so I'll have to work against that. ok
Reversed?
I heard that it was reversed, like if it said helpfulness increasing it was actually decreasing
Unsure how reliable that was tho
Oh, it's working well with independence, at least
Mm so it’s probably fixed
You could do the same as here
If helpfulness is still bugged, increase other personality traits you want
If I remember, I think the helpfulness was just a display bug
Strangely... endearing
I can't ride it, nor can it take accessories, but it's kinda cute how it rolls around
day 1 of wandering around the galaxy with my pets until i find someone to game with
Try changing it's anatomy and let us know of the results
its fixed yeah
darn, shame
Dunno if it even can produce eggs, but sure, I'll try. Might make it giant, even if that's useless 
Is that a pet biological horror?
Yes indeed it is you can get them by expeditions or trade.
yes
If you can, would you mind sharing? I can give one or two of the ones I'm breeding too.
Sure sure, the update is taking hours tho, and I haven't toyed with the gene stuff at all yet. Gonna take some time, that
uuh, so when you sequence an egg, you get an entirely new egg?
I now have 5 whispering companion eggs 
Thats a bug. Youll only be able to hatch one of them.
Don't really have much space for pets rn anyway. Don't want to dismiss any of mine
I haven't played in about two years and then i get online and see companions
It's amazing
Does the pinned guide for colors not work anymore? I used the one not for bipedals on my feline/cat egg, but the color didn’t change in the slightest. I used 100% dose
Also how long does it take for them to grow, and will the overly-large head stay?
Used this one
I have a little four legged snail-like companion and it laid an egg
This reminds me of breeding dinos in ark: survival evolved
Woah where did you find this dino?
he's on one of my paradise worlds
required a rider/tame mod and 2 hours of effort to catch the daddy, hatched a 4.5m 180kg alpha on my first try
and what you see there is the juvinile
not even close to full size lol
Oh I'm xbox I don't have mods. Looks like a skinny lugia I love it! ❤
im very excited to see his full size
his species teased me outside my base for a year
day 2 of wandering around the galaxy with my pets until i find someone to game with
4rth gen, 3 meters, almost pure white except for purple dots in tail wings and slight teal color
It's still too young to lay eggs, but I can give it's parents egg and say the items used
I uh, I might be able to mess with a rolling coral formation today. Yesterday the timer for an egg wasn't done yet
From OG pet to first egg. I'm super happy with the color :D
how do make my pet crystal color blue in the egg squencer?
its about a week and overly-large head gets not so large after growing
Modded?
just a mod that lets me tame it nothin more
dm'd it to you
By the way, reddit has an updated version that includes more materials, like trading, minerals, trading stuff
The pins here could stand to be cleaned up. Post that updated version
Mhm, true
Could you send the updated version?
I've cleaned up repeat pins, it should be clearer now.
@plush dawn ^
Ah, thank you guys!
mountaints aint nothin but a thing for kitteh
I got a bubble
day 3 of wandering around the galaxy with my pets until i find someone to game with
you're welcome to explore with me but i spend a decent amount of time making kaijuu lol
you creative
probably not
Can we change the color of its offspring to something different in the egg sequencer?
Well damn 😔
of course you can
thats literally what the "dye" channel is for
unless im misreading your question
oh his crystal creature there?
probably not, they're kinda exotic ...not many different seeds or schemes for them
Yes the crystal pet. I have one, and I want to change the color of it so that it looks like a storm crystal/protoss pylons
although i dunno i havent found a creature i couldnt change the color of yet
like antimatter = red/white and blue
some species cannot change color, zero clue why other then it has to do with the texture of their skin
try star ship launch fuel for the dye
Ok I'll try that thanks
I already tried emeril on it earlier. If I try the antimatter/starship fuel next, will it count the latest material that I used for the dye?
so you can constantly modify the same egg with a different result before hatching it
and it will enherit the previous changes if you dont modify them
so i can say take a base egg, keep feeding its personality and size and make only 1 change to its color
and it'll always keep the color and keep growing
how to determine when i pumped max cytophosphates into egg?
uh so it'll just say 100% but you wont see any gain
so from there you gotta just...go down the mat list till you find what it likes again and keep feeding
i mean before hatching
yeah it just...wont go up anymore
i mean during genetic sequencing phase
uh so tryin to explain this right, if you take your egg and just repeatedly feed it cyto before hatching it'll eventually cap out and you wont see more growth
and you cant overcharge it, just 100% on the slot
but you cant see growth till you hatched the egg
im talking about what an i check during sequencing
instead of waiting 24 h
or hatching it and realising it wasnt enough
The color of my crystal pet hasn't changed 😔
I hope they add more colors for the exotic fauna
hmmm, can you change its genome?
or does it just stay a yellow crystal
Of course, here:

I got one these days, a bummer you can't change color or anatomy of Hellcats.
no prob

500 votes and 84 comments so far on Reddit
would be nice if you could change their anatomy to the "wolf" type
would nake them look lethal
Ikr, I actually wanted a wolf
but the one that was posted got fur due to recent updates... I don't like furry predators
well, at least my GPU/NMS can't render fur well lol
if you change its genetics you can end up with this that has the wolf anatomy , getting fur on it was a different nightmare
This was originally a hellcat?
aye
friend had his out
I see. Do you remember any specific item you used for it to become a wolf? I actually really like the skin and the horns
nothing i did would make it keep the horns or the thick skin, if you change the hellcat genetics it produces this soft skinned ...aquacat lol as seen above
after much more modifying i got it to that size and to have fur
- the color
darn... ideas on how to remove only fur?
Without many generations... I mean, anatomy changes are linear or depend on what you use?
because I initially wanted this fella, but fur happened in-game
I have found a small blob that moves -very- fast.
He honestly makes me think of the edgy rival character for some reason. So like, if Blob was the protagonist, Borb would be the anti-hero. I am sticking by this canon.
I have found a friend for him, Buge
Let me see lol
This is my floaty, electrical, orb man. He is very pleased to have a friend
Oh damn, an exotic! Nice!
What
Now I've got two exotic things?
I'm so lost
All I know is this is an "anomalous animal"
Yes, that's an "exotic" fauna.
Oh cool
It'll go well with my "exotic" ship
I'm so new that all this means very little to me but I'm sure it will later
So exotic fauna are on exotic/anomaly planets like the one you are on. For example, there are "calcishroom"/Mushroom planets that have Will-O-Wisp looking fauna. They are a set creature rather then being made from randomized parts. Irrc, colors can still be different? Regardless, generally they are -really- cool pets.
Float ball!
Does a robot dog count?
One sec
I'll tell you where I am rn
It's anomalous so it'll be quite rare
Good because I have no clue where I am
These are sort of inbetween, but no. They are still made from randomized parts, just robot parts. There is also a smaller selection. You'll notice some similar looking fauna species like the ever popular Diplos.
And then more unique ones that aren't pulled from the pool of parts. It's... a lot. Procedural generation but there are patterns to pick out.
The...what?
Don't worry I'm lost too
This must be some Korax words I haven't learned
I would like y'all to meet Bubbles. He comes from planet Bubbly.
He is very cute
I would also like y'all to meet Roger.
I have one just like him. They don't stop running around like little rams
btw @slim heart , found a more complete one: has diplos, proto-geks and butterflies

it's amazing how it's detailed, wow
Oh.
Awesome, thanks!

Yeah, he always ends up falling in some hole or something and getting stuck.
For robots they are not the smarted chip around
Theres bubbles?!
Bubbles that appear to be leaking multi colored ink or something.
When I wake up and have free time. Can't atm.
ok
I think when you put something for the anatomy, it will change to a different exotic. I have a flying rocket box exotic and it's offspring became a blood dripping bubble after putting lots of storm crystals and some other mats in the anatomy slot
this is my favorite floating rocket box fauna
my new robot-dog-thing is talking with me
oh hey, I think a quest sent me to that exact planet. Took one of those with me
when the babies are bigger then your starship ..
anyone have a tamed sandworm, ad could help me out with the seed id, im not looking to mod, ive also already asked in there with no help so i thought id ask in the creature tab, if you do have a sandworm pm me to make things easier thanks alot
Huh, I didn't even know we couldn't tame them
Interesting:
N. Protobiriium / 90.5kg / 1.8m / found on the temperate moon Yeninco Gamma in Euclid.
Might breed this one to max size.
very nice
Yeah. I love the eyes. I found him on the prowl for my daily diplo.
Has anyone made a water creature into a whale yet?
Want me too?
My latest pet, "Siege".
I’m planning on trying to use the gene splitter to see if I can remove the magnet from the back. Any suggestions or tips before I blindly experiment?
I fed my egg cyto phopsphate until it stopped showing that the size would increase in gene sequencer and then more but the one that hatched was still same size as before
is there a link or something that gives like a mhmmmm what each material does in the sequencer to the egg?
got a dinossaur
This is my Dino!
one of my dinos 🙂
guys
i found a way to skip the egg timers
without clock jumping
but it needs the save editor
first you go to edit>edit raw json
go to the pets tab
and select the slot ur pet is in
set birth and lasteggtime to 0
then ur pet is ready to lay
then for the eggs its the same thing
the end
thank u
nice to know it, thanks
I hope one day wr can tame birds they put so much detail its a shame you rarely see them upclose
There's a mod that let's you tame pretty much any creature
Sadly im on console
Ah so you'll need a friends help that ays pc then, have them download the mod and find a bird you like and tame it. Once it lays an eggs, they give you the egg and bam, you have a bird @brave tartan
What!?! Can someone in here float me a bird egg
i have a dragon
flying creatures are ridiculously hard to catch
also im in creative
bro, can you help me get to that planet to get one of those?, pls
I need a dragon in normal mode, been looking everywhere
Hey how do I get a robot pet?
What’s the best material to give an egg to cause the most growth
You can find these in uninhabited systems, mostly red start systems, can spawn on all planets (biomes) there
||sorry that was for a friend XD||
This was one of my first „pets“ and is still my fave :)
It looks happy 
Robofauna produce eggs too, yes. They're just regular eggs, same as the other pets.
Do you have glyphs and galaxy for this? I'll come tame it right now
Anyone have coordinates for glowing orbs or other abstract normally uncapturable critters? I'm on the hunt
My new lil friend 
No one loves my fluffy Nutters 
He's very cute 
This is the baby. Going to be 12m full grown... and less big headed...
How do I get food to get pets??
Make it from carbon
You have to make it further in the main story to unlock creature pellets, i believe after you unlock the anomaly
how do I know when my egg is as big as it can get
Yall I grew one of Aquilas eggs... Gen 3 is gonna be a doozy.
Aquila first
her daughter, whom i have not named yet
when i get an egg from her... it onnnnnn
Top 10 photos taken before tragic events
He is so cute. Blobs are the best pets. :D
is she made full of chin?
Chin wasn't what I instantly thought of 
Scp 999 >.>
How is it so big?
you can force the soft cap on egg size over the limit
none of my pets are under 10 meters
You can get turtles as pets now?
Mod.
no, that requires a mod
ill just tag my posts with "mod" now if its required
i get asked this too often haha
currently trying to perfect the genome of my "cat" , lets see what todays egg reveals
HNNNGHHH so close
just gotta get the spines removed
I thought the spines looked good ._.
I tried making it big but failed or just carnt
Can’t you give save file edited eggs to ps4 players and have it work as the modded animal was designed
elaborate walling
I fed it a bunch of gold
different materials work
Guess round 2 XD
Like a dude make a massive sand worm with 9 heads. It’s edited in save files so the data is compatible with cross platform. The egg inherits the abnormal though source code compatible data and thus works for other systems. Is that a thing?
ah to simplify
if i edited an egg to be 100 meters tall
and gave it to you, would it retain that size
the answer is yes
i give non-mod users my dragon, they cant ride or interact with it but they can hatch and own him
today i have my first god turtle egg available
this as well is a mod creature, but you can own him
Making me tempted
Some dude with to much time on his hands is going to make it so console players can use modded freighters
Wait now I got the image of a huge dragonfly flying over settlmemts or so big it fly from system to system
Dam
otherwise i'd sail the stars on my dragon lol
Just imagine being a casual person in a settlement just doing your own business then fron afar you see thus huge cat coming towards you
i go to the galactic hub and do it to people all the time
Lol
Hmm similar in fear factor
he's napping while i build uwu
@tawny tartan is the dragon egg you gave me a direct descendant of the first modded one? I have a theory that second generation creatures spurred on non modded offline saves will be interact-able
first egg i think
ive actually lost track
im pretty sure felix (the cat) is in the 20"s for generation
ive been breeding him down from...
Jeez
took extreme work to change his species, color to white, get him fur
get him a normal tail
How do you know what to add
Can’t wait to see one of mine get that size
So specific materials add difrent stuff
XD
I want a big kitty thats supper lazy but also super helpful
And dam that just shows how big it is
his stats are quite special
So cute
prob my fav pic of him
Scarey
How long does it normally take you to mature them after hatching?
Do you know for beetles?
Ingame? O , O
And I'm here struggling to get my first living ship XD
Oof ;-; I was wondering why it nothings happened I read it could be 24 to a week and it’s already been a few days
Also the struggle is real
I had no clue I needed to collect glyphs so my last day felt like forever >~(
Ahhh then it should just be a breeze
Sorri I got a question
Is it worth keeping the anomaly pets
Like glowing balls
Floating crystals
thank
Welco
@tawny tartan how do I know if a pet is fully grown
"elderly"
Check the companion register
Where does it say that XD sorry I'm a lil dumb
@tawny tartan oh yeah do I have to have the pet out to let them grow?
nah, grows in your inventory
i think it might even tick down while out of game but dont hold me to that one
i would imagine so lol
Lesser Mushroom Beetle:
R. Neckcokeae / 151.3kg / 3.1m / found on the grassy planet Tead Major in Euclid
So, when messing with the genetics, is overdosing the only way to change something? Like, making a tail longer, different, etc, or will a normal 100 percent dose work?

he is lookin for tasties
A stretched dolphin
I just want the stub tail to be GONEEEE
He skipped a few leg days XD
26 generations later and i've recreated a species from the mysterious "pre-traveller era", known as the house cat this docile lil guy is the ultimate fuzzy whimsicle companion ❤️
I want one SO much!
I want one. Sleep with one eye open I MIGHT STEAL
@fluid pivot @devout lotus happy to give eggs when available 🙂
No way:O
i didnt create this lil guy just to keep him to myself thats no fun
All I got is flying Teddy bear floating crystals robot reindeer dragonfly and little blob thing that fly around
Dam
I know if you just get a egg from the pet
And keep it
You can technically have more
That's still alot more
yeah i mean total you get 12 pets
but each day my 6 pets produce 6 eggs
so ...it stacks up quickly lol
lol no prob
And ofc I'll be happy to just give them out randomly to people
I'll be like a santa x Easter bunny
This is really impressive.
I want a white wolf
sadly this isnt possible
i have a 100% wolf type, the closest to white i got was blue/white/red
you CAN achieve albinos but its stupidly rare
Depends on the creature’s species, you can check the pins though.
Kk thx
Free void eggs normal save atm, Dm me
how long does it take for an antelope creature to grow to adult?
Is there a resources for the color dye for the exotic animals?
I don't know. I don't think your companion can be recoloured though.
Yikes.
I was hoping to turn it to orange or red. Make it more like the eye of Sauron

Imagine how cool it would be
My collection (work in progress)
friend
where did you get that? From other player?
lol
looks like it was spawned in with a save editor thats why
Does anyone know how long it takes for the biological horror pets to become adults? Mine has been too young to lay an egg for what seems like ages.
say hello to the first creature I deemed worthy to be tamed.
anyone want an alien capybara
There really aren’t many pets that are rare as such. There are occasional attributes that are, though. White coloring, camo print on the robots, for example. Nothing shown above seems to be outside of the norm
i find it's noises fascinating
this is another good one
another
do my pet needs to be out to grow?
No
how much do they take usualy?
Seems to be inconsistent. Particularly since the last update
Usually a few days to a week.
I know a friend who has a white wolf and white tiger type. I'll update you if she still has
Sent previously by someone, just wanted to see cordinates clearly. :]
that dude got neck for dayz
Need coordinates for a dragon type creature, anyone have any good ones?
I'll even make a deal for it, starting at 5 AI valves if I decide to tame it and increasing based on how I like it, prefer flying with wings. If it's on a paradise planet as well, I'll empty my settlements Stasis Device production into your inventory (115 stasis devices +/-)
how to get biological horror pets
Its the final reward for Cartographers
@compact sable you can ask someone on Anomaly for an egg, my biological horror craps a lot of it 
how to get my companon to be bigger?
afaik you need to provide something as a grow hormone in egg sequencer on space anomaly
depends on egg, I did it for my biological horror with fusion accelerant for example
it will show you info if something you put in cause decrease/increase in growth
and if you overdose it
how to figure out the right one?
I recommend you to search for guides, yt or text, for example: https://www.fanbyte.com/guides/no-mans-sky-egg-sequencer-guide-how-to-overdose/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4IV9la4wE4Y
but I just tried random things in my inventory the first time I did it
but horror had only options for growth and behavior as far as I remember
sometimes it's intuition, sometimes quite random, for example something sweet like caramel reduces animal aggresion 
but you can use base stuff like carbon, ferrite etc. to get similar results
I like to experiment, but if time is crucial then recipes online are your best bet
...
too much "but", sorry
i kept feeding stuff to my companion that showed as growth in sequencer but it doesn't seem to grow any more
The simple answer is to check the pins here
https://www.nomansskyresources.com/guide-pages/pets
Has a really good chart showing how/what materials work in the sequencer
everything becomes crabs eventually
it reminds me of that one enemy of a serial cartoon from France, Code Lyoko.
Has anyone found dragonflies that don't have an orange-reddish underbelly? I've seen a few pics online of some with orange-red in the beginning and then it goes to white but wanted to make sure those are a thing
You can change their colour.. Get an egg and mutate it at the anomaly.
@hybrid briar
I did twice, and the underbelly remains red-orange. I looked up some photos and through the channel here, and saw that the majority of dragonflies have red-orange underbelly
My dragonfly started off as red and I've changed the color to bright green, then bright purple, with no effect to the underside
Hmm. Just checked mine. Yer right. Bottom didnt change for any of em that i chamged the colour on.
I suppose it might be a permanent feature. Have you encountered any dragonflies like this one with a white underside?
Not personally, not yet
Yeah, I'm not familiar with the flying creatures, but most of the pets seem to have a feature that is a static color and not affected by dyes
I feel like mine changed. Let me check.
Nope you're right. It stayed
These floating worm things are adoptable. As pets.
Planet is Gellis V23 (Galaxy: Euclid)
Actually, only some of them are adoptable? It's very weird.
Hatched an egg and the companion was completely invisible
Unable to interact with it
Guess its just gonna starve
@tawny tartan do the heads/front legs of baby cats get to normal size after they age a bit? I didnt change anything cept size of the original and the dimensions are all off with the baby
Or if not. How do i avoid said issue and make it a lil bigger in the process. Dont what it huge. Just like 2m instead of .8m
They grow into their head and paws
Good to know. Cause it looks funky. Heh
Ive only had butterflies and a meteor. So this cat breeding was new to me. Was too cool to pass up.
the babies come out very dispreportionate
and yeah , grow into it
Thank ya as well
Bit late but if you can't tame that natively did ye want me to tame and get you an egg from it?
Np. I already tamed it and kept it for a while
If you’re wondering how to get that orb pet, look for fissured planet , planet of light; etc. and you will find those orbs and take them if you wish
It was just more i use mods so if you couldn't tame that normally i coulda gotten one for you
sussy
one of the weirder creatures I've encountered
Yesss I finally found a quadrupedal helmet head cat! ❤️ He's super spiky!
I have a planet full of those I remember seeing one tear a snake ball to bits.
more late statements but could i get my hands on one of those cats too
Yep
Lost companion
keep a lookout for a little crab-like goblin-man dancing in space stations
return to Wayfinder Cheems if found
did you check with the lost and found desk? 
Meet Ryder, my robofauna companion who absolutely cannot sit still.
when you give them pats
so cute 🥰
amgry
Not sure if it's bugged or intended but regardless of material or dose, the gene splitter always makes it come out like this.
I think its a bug, im getting the same results
How big can you grow these noodles?
Not sure, with the first egg I could only do two growth injections before it just says 'inherited' - will try with new egg when this one's mature.
That's probably the max size anyways
Do you have an aerial shot of it?
Hmmm
if it helps heres my guy riding it
hard to see, but you can kind of see the backpack stick out lol
What'd you inject?
just spam injected the egg with platinum lol
Did it with ionised cobalt.
noicee
Not happy with the colour tho, trying to get blue.
yea same, I couldn't get the colors to change at all
No colors or visual changes?
there are visual changes, but I've been getting the same colors
Interesting
Also is this an adult or baby?
adult!
How is it already an adult?
Time skip
^
yea, its pretty fast, and it goes realllly high up for some reason
Epic
Has anyone else noticed that after this new update, underground fauna are a LOT easier to find?
What's the best material to increase pet size in the sequencer?
Why are you so god damn cute, Brainiac?
there's this chart they have pinned here: <#nms-fauna message> but not sure which is "best". whatever's easiest to come by maybe..?
I know you can overload it with some materials
I have a lot of cyto phosphate but I can't do that with it
Are the worm pets able to have the "crocodillian" heads? The modified worms I've seen only have that Lamprey mouth
There is a best in terms of 'bang for buck'. Some materials will give higher values per material than others.
oh good to know. do you which specifically off the top of your head?
Dont you use specific materials for specific colors
?
I've never edited color so idk but I found a chart that told me so
Usually, but for some reason it doesn't work on these wormies
Awww gotcha, that's unfortunate, was gonna make a huge red and white one
Albino blood worm
First link in the pins
I tried to make my worm white with red outlines but it didn't work
Ik that the underside of pets dont change no matter what
Depresso
Just found that out
Also are the heads changeable or has that not been added yet
Like head shape?
Different genus of pets respond differently to the same materials too, as far as dyes go
Yes
Yeah head can change but its random
Im talking about the worm
Ohhh
Idk that
I hope, thatd make a common pet more unique to players
Since anyone playin exped can get a sandworm
ty. sucks that site doesn't seem to work well on mobile 😿
It's doesn't work well on much of anything. Bad design. But the info is solid. This is where you want to start looking.
that helps a lot. ty! i wish they'd posted a read-only spreadsheet. it'd be a lot easier to get to, scroll through and share lol
Anyone know how to use the gene splitter?

Can you change the size of worm
but how do you use the gene splitter tho
Just chillin with the butterflies
Getting away with it
Anyone get a worm that isn't the default model or the circular sky snake model?
I think u have to mutate it to get a different model not sure I've only grown mine to max size
Bro normally I never get this feeling I released a pet that I had since the release of pets and it said "was I useful?" Oh my God my heart hurts so I reloaded the save and got it back bro I cried

I did the same but it's gone forever
I nearly cried haha
Kinda regret it
Bro why can't there be a way to have infinite pets like u can have a captivity room incase you want another pet
Idk man, to make pets more personal maybe
Ig Pets wouldnt be as special if you could fill the slots with as many as you want
True
I wish the worm could be bigger it seems like the max size is 1.0m
Also the colors don't change no matter what you inject into the egg
Anyone got a full grown sandworm?
Mine changed colors
Omg u win 🏆 I loveeeeeeee
I'm not home rn but I can get one when I get back, mines like dark blue with a red belly
Can someone trade me an unchanged sandstorm egg? I messed mine up and I've resequenced this egg 17 times and it never changes its anatomy. I'll happily trade my egg for another
Worm*
Yea asking about that. The only head I've gotten is this old circular mouth, none of the new types
Can the worms lay eggs
Yes
Oof
Hey anyone else mutate their worm? Id love to see what kind of anatomy yalls worm have
I mutated mine and it got kinda stubby so I'm having to wait another generation.
For anyone who was successful with changing the color of the worm, what material did you use?
K thanks
does anyone know how i can get my pet worm to have this head
@olive inlet I've tried mutating my worms anatomy 16 times now, and everytime he stays the same. The chubby, maggot like model. I'm wanting the centipede model if anyone has an egg for trade.
Yea I don't know if it's intended or a bug.
The only thing worm companion-related in the experimental is how they talk.
We'll have to wait for more.
Yo is it possible to get modded pets on ps4?
Cus I just got traded this egg and when I hatched it it was a fish
And It had a blue smoke cloud around it
What does anatomy do
How big can I get the worm before it starts being glitchy?
And how many size increases would that take?
Also how can I check the model my worm is?
Gets bigger I think.
Is there a material that decreases playfulness and increases helpfulness. I don’t know much about sequencing

That pet looks so cool would you be willing to give me an egg of it?
SURE
oops caps
ill warn you its much bigger then the nexus picture
That’s fine lol my friend code is 132P-F9EJ-4M8VM
Is there a cap on animal size?
Depends on the genus.
Just send me a message when you are on to give me the egg! And thank you!
How does your companion grow into adult?
no idea sorry, i caught this one this size
I just mean in general lul
ah i wanna say real time and lots of love and food
Ok
stegosaurus
My worm is max size, but can I make it go faster?
I don't think so, your probably could with the right brain development stats(like independence or whatever)
Has anyone got nice colours on their worms?
I got a brown with red accents, but I hatched it like that
That sounds great, I didn't see any guides to how it affects then so I only made mine bigger
I’ve noticed the sequencer acts weird with the worms
Are the flying serpents tameable? (Sand worms but smaller)
if the animal fly pretty high up they are most likely won't land, hence they are not tameable
@nocturne drift mines got a greyish brown upper shell and dark red underbelly
I kept trying to breed mine to see what colours I could get but I couldn't find red off the different inputs, only green, dark green, grey :/
if I could remember what I used, id tell you lol. maybe it was chromatic metal or antimatter
Mines like a grayish dark blue with a red underbelly
@nocturne drift
Didnt change color until I made the dosage 100%
I was only trying 100% doses, with different inputs, did about 3 eggs for each input, no reds only greys greens and browns
what dye did you use
Saw this in another discord, thought I'd share it here because it's pretty useful, 4 different models for sandworms
Centipede
Leech
Sand Worm
Sand Snake
@winged fulcrum yo, could I get an egg of that?
Can worms produce more eggs of themselves?
So even if we can fly up there we can't interact?
once adults yes
@winged fulcrum I'd happily give you an egg which is a maggot model instead of a centipede model. I just really want a centipede model.
Ive got the same model as yukari but mine is a baby
@crimson needle lucky, I made the mistake of putting my first egg in the sequencer, and now I cant change anything about it. Every time I've tried to resequence this egg it comes out the same as the parent
I'm wondering if there's a sea dragon head
@crimson needle I'm pretty sure these just the always open mouth like in Dune, or the default mouth.
Mine isn't very old either I think, I just maxed the size on mine
I hope these start showing up
Do I make it adult just by riding it and feeding it?
it'll be an adult after 7 days
irl
Nice
@Yukari Yakumo#000 you need to either wait like a week or so, or turn network off and time travel
Got it, I can do that
Is adult the max size?
"time travel"
i like that
I think they can become elderly, but their size wont become bigger than 1m
should be altho they do grow "older" (based on description iirc)
these are what I was wondering if they could be tamed since they're so similar
https://nms.miraheze.org/wiki/Flying_Snake
@crimson needle I tried for an hour to tane one, but they always fly and I dont think they're tameable
dang
Sounds good, I'll let you know when I can get on and get an egg
@winged fulcrum cool, I'll dm you friend code for use whenever you're ready
It'll be a while since my power is out currently 
@crimson needle those and the sandworm pets have the same model but I think that the "sky snakes" just arent tamable and they can't land
@winged fulcrum np my man, I have all the time in the world
how many days until the sandworm can lay eggs?
i don't think you can interrract with it even if you somehow fly up there
About 7
Does overdosing the worm anatomy change things much at the sequencer?
Here's what I got from the maggot egg
Can you give people sandworm eggs even if they didn’t do the expedition? If so if someone wouldn’t mind I’d really appreciate getting an egg of one.
Mine is too young to lay eggs at the moment but when it's old enough I'd be more than willing to take 20 salvaged data for one. if you're interested ping me in 5 days.
Ooh I haven’t thought of charging salvaged data
Is could rly use some maybe that’s what I’ll do
Sell void eggs and sand worm eggs for salvaged data
How do u even get that
Also do they just float around or do they act like a sandworm
from the new expedition
They fly, with slither/wave/ribbon physics going on
Like a game of snake, where the front updates but the following segments follow the path the head takes
If you have pet/fauna related mods installed it may interfere with the physics
Anyone have a list of what fauna types can be tamed? Ik butterflies, beetles, (all the older tameable fauna), some proto rollers. What about anomalous? (fireflies, bubbles, diggers, birds, fish)
I just tamed an orb
Can't ride it but hey, orb
Im having trouble mutating my worm. I got a maggot egg and it looks the same as its parent
What do?
yeah mine wont change either
Its bull. They programmed like 7 new head types and body shapes and junk
Im stuck with this maggot because I wanted a unique worm
Like its supposed to have more mutations right?
fairy bear cow things, what do you call them :D?
Steve
I've only recently gave the pet system a shot the other day during my new expedition save file. What sort of things can you currently do with pets? I know I can ride them, and recently add them as a creature I can spawn next to me when needed. Is the breeding system worth checking out?
oh most definitely. check out the top pins for tips on what materials to use in the sequencer. especially with size, color and personality traits which are the most predictable, compared to the other physical features like limbs, which can turn out to be super random
Oh, that is super cool. I'll definitely have to check it out. I wonder if in a future update they'll allow players to battle other players with their creatures like another uber popular game franchise.
What are the inputs for these?
And this
Like genetic mutation input? Its unstable so it should be random
My buddy got a centipede with worm face without mutating
I don't think it is random, I used chromatic metal and kept getting this one
Yeah I got the leech too without the teeth poking out on the head
I can only reccomend hatching the egg and reloading your save til you get what you want
I just didnt have the patience myself
Ok thank you
Yeah no problem man, good luck, hope you get what your looking for
Just out of curiosity, what genetic input did your friend use?
He didnt mutate at all
He just hatched it, didnt resize or color change
How did he get the different heads?
Oh
So Idk if its rng or if that's default but his looks pretty cool
I was iffy on mine at first but then i realized it looks like a sarlak haha
Well thanks anyways dude, I'll try them lol
@bold wren this is the one i was referring to that's in a pin in this channel btw: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/816575988858224650/830892227181543424/No_mans_sky_Pet_Personality.jpg
There are a couple of errors on that one, I can't recall what they are off hand
Thank you!

@bold wren 
So whats the general splitter do?
I've tried 4 different resources and got the same damn thing as the original pet
@split carbon for something different are there any good resources?
I don't want the magnet+long head on my robot deer despite 4 attempts to alter it I still have gotten the same thing each time
so going back to your original question in #nms-questions:
for robotic companions/pets what are good resources to change its look
- for any type of companion, changing the pet's physical features, other than size, color and personality traits, the sequencer is VERY unpredictable.
- i've never tried sequencing robotic pets so i'm not sure about their limitations when it comes to changing their physical traits.
@split carbon thank you lol I'll keep trying then
based on other players' reports here and subreddit, the physical traits are super random for all forms of companions. so there hasn't been any resource like a spreadsheet of sorts, available, guiding what kind of let's say head design you'll get with what as an example.
Ahh okay. I'm honestly happy with any change as I loathe the current look very much lol
i'm definitely curious what you can get
so please do post about any results you find.
Sure thing!
You may even need to successive generation mutations
Hmm never knew that. Anyone doing work with the new worms? Wonder if we can alter them as well
They seemed a little buggy at least when it comes to aggression
I'll illustrate a scenario: say you have a curved head robo, and you wanted a triangle. You do an overdose at 150 which changes the back. You breed that one again through splitter, which may result in different changes.
@halcyon canyon oh alright. I've done that that had zero changes lol
Sometimes you won't
I currently have three different types of robofauna, and I take each generation through 0, 100, and 150 percent doses
I always go for the max dose
Don't
Thinking maybe it increases chances of it altering a feature
Try all.
@halcyon canyon try all..?
Overdose, full dose, and underdose
AHH alright. If this last iteration 8s another failure I'll do just that. Any general suggestions on a resource to use or is it rather completely random
Resource does not appear to matter, only strength of dose. Some materials are more efficient.
That's about my ideal model

I didn't have an ideal, but I am very much digging this one
Yup@ lol
Did the paint pattern change? I haven't seen that happen yet
I'm reloading now to confirm it. The damn lighting really needs adjusting in this game
It's there, look in the companion manager, best you can do while mutating and reloading in the anomaly
Lemme take a pic
I just haven't seen paint patterns change yet, so that's neat. All my stripes have beget stripes, for example
Sick, you got the white camo too.
The thing white is, I'm not sure you can use a dye to get that color, so you kind of have to find it in the wild.
I like them around the average
.8-1m size, I think that's what looks right. And feels the fastest, but I haven't exactly run time trials
i think this is my favorite so far
Ik it’s more of a “mod” thing, but if I had a bunch of companion eggs and the script with all the head things I could tell the egg to have a different head when it hatches
I did it with the butterfly companions pre-prism update
If someone would part with an egg I could check and give it back when I’m done
It's cute
lmk if you need a taxi
i'm in love. like omg
Lol
Can I use the scanner visor from inside the minotaur?
lil rainbow
🦀 Nootanore (222nd galaxy) Planet is Dad System is Texas
Man these are more fanciful than anything I come across.
But then again I end up using a large tree and lately my robotic deer
Wtf how? Is it modded?

I still need to name her
