i forgot to do it with this one

[fallen radish]

🫂

[native gust]

does anyone know a sequence of glyphs for some system that I have a white or gold sailboat?

[pale oyster]

"sailboat" ?

[prisma lava]

So in order to get a ship through glyphs and portal, you have to go to the relevant station and still wait for that ship?

[pale oyster]

or trading depot. Park your ship on the ground, 5 NPCs will land, so better odds

[woeful flicker]

@native gust "sailboat" all white, Euclid

[compact maple]

Great find! It's not a first wave but I got it to show up 3 different reloads under 10 minutes. It's more like a reliable 3rd wave.

I know of no other Squid with a better supercharger slot layout.

Outstanding find!

[woeful flicker]

I might have to trade in my current white squid for this one

[compact maple]

@deep tangle
I forgot to add an image of the version I bought

[woeful flicker]

Version?

[compact maple]

Each time I reload, it comes back with different base stats. I'm probably using the wrong term. sorry about that

[deep tangle]

Thank you. Yes, I think it wasn't a first wave for me either, maybe a 2nd or 3rd wave.

[woeful flicker]

Oh I see

[compact maple]

The utubers will make videos about this one! You'll be a star! For a few days.........

Truly, great find!

[deep tangle]

I put some upgrades from the Utopia Speeder in the supercharged slots, I managed to get it's maneuverability stat to 1635.1

[compact maple]

💯

[pale oyster]

do it right, should be close or over 3k

[deep tangle]

I am mostly uneducated regarding properly placing upgrades.

[pale oyster]

I dont see any tutorial in the pinned in this discord, bummer

[deep tangle]

Oh well

[pale oyster]

google 'NMS tech adjacency"

[deep tangle]

I will.

[silent wyvern]

@worn sage ©️

[worn sage]

What up?

[silent wyvern]

Someone has the Need. The Need for Speed.

[worn sage]

Lol

It’s not that complicated but it’s not very intuitive either.

[pale oyster]

add the sail 😉

oh wait, I dont have it in there.... dang

[silent wyvern]

No cheating ;P

[worn sage]

You don’t need to 😦

[native gust]

thank you very much

[fallen radish]

sailboat

[patent grail]

I'm debating doing a vid showing 2-player reskinning to build an exploited speeder, the Utopian Array. It'd certainly start with a Solar for the sail, and I have a crazy idea about where to go from there.

[pale oyster]

@patent grailare you one of the admins here? There are no tech layout cheat sheets in the pinned section, unless I am blind

[patent grail]

@pale oyster You arent, I havent gotten around to making a new ship chart because "best" is dependent on one's goals. Minmaxing maneuvering, damage, shields, and/or range all require different layouts, not to mention maxing overall combat effectiveness, in PvE or PvP.

I coulda sworn @jolly dew said they were going to make something up for that, as well though.

[pale oyster]

@patent grailhistorically I have always shared Craig Mark's charts, cuz he shares them freely, and I assume loves them being shared, but since I saw yours and the others in the creative hub, that is what I use for my own reference, but have been hesitant to share much

[patent grail]

@pale oyster Youre welcome to post my work wherever, but I should warn you, Craig wont entertain the notion that my work is better than his in any measure, large or small. He has me blocked on all social media lol.

[pale oyster]

<snort>

[patent grail]

Anyone wants to argue about my results, point em to my DMs, always open, 0 people blocked on my Discord so far, ever lol.

[pale oyster]

well shit, maybe I am guilty by association..... when I came back to NMS last fall I asked him some things in his FB group and he flat out ignored me twice. 🙂 🙂

[patent grail]

The funniest was last time we got into it on subreddit, before NMSCE/GE split. Went back and forth on someone's post to the point he tried claiming personal contact with HG backing his side.... My response was, "Bold move, so was it Sean himself or just one of the minor HG members who conveniently confirmed your findings, 2 hours deep into an argument you were losing?"

[pale oyster]

hahahaha

@patent grailcheck DM...

[patent grail]

He deleted his entire comment chain, then reported me, then got a bunch of other people to report me. Apex looked it over and suspended Craig lol.

Wondering if anyone has a recent glyph code for a resurgence freighter with the spoiler fin in a 3-tier or pirate system

This one has a spoiler

Just took a SS of it's belly for some reason

[fallow pollen]

Thanks for the help - though just after I posted that I hit a system with one, and to add to that literally just this min got it in S class

[fossil pike]

the saddest-looking ship i've ever seen

[bold meteor]

That thing flys XD

[pale oyster]

flew too close to that tree, should have listened better to his mom

[bold meteor]

More like a meteor/space rock

[bronze kernel]

looking fir a ship with alot of slots. dont care about the grade just want something better than my starter ship. ill even settle for a wreck

[plain panther]

Haulers have the most slots, and you can find many in Gek systems in particular, but since the ships cost is heavily influenced by the slots the ship has, haulers are normally very expensive. If you go to the systems station and get some distress signal planetary charts, you can use those to find some crashed ships and see if any of them catch your interest

[bronze kernel]

ok thanks alot

[plain panther]

One thing to note, is when you use a planetary chart it can show one of several things. If you use a distress signal one and it shows a crashed freighter, just use another one. Sometimes it will say that it already showed the location, since it rolled to show a crashed freighter again, or it will show another thing on the list of points of interest it can show. You can do this to mark all of the places you're not interested in going so that every chart after that will always show you what you're looking for, though you'll have to use the chart several times until it choses to show you that particular thing

[bronze kernel]

i dont have acces to the anamoly yet im still new

is there spome in the station?

[plain panther]

yes, those charts come from the vendor in every space station closest to the portal, they offer several but the distress signal ones will show crashed ships, so you can find a big hauler without spending thousands of units on it

[chrome laurel]

Means you don't have glyphs yet either doesn't it?

[pale oyster]

@bronze kernelwhen you fly to check on a crashed ship at the distress signal, fly in low, then use camera mode in the quick menu and look closely around the ship to see if there is an NPC hanging around. If so, don't land. You can't claim those ones, and there will be one I believe on each planet. So then open another map for the next distress signal.

Starting out very new, and relatively low on credits, the best bang for the buck for more slots than the Pillar are the shuttles. But that is about the only thing they are best at. 🙂

If I am doing a permadeath speedrun to the core and want a backup ship for the jump, it's almost always a c class shuttle

[tardy carbon]

solar, euclid

if anyone is even interested

[pale oyster]

weird.... waited a bit for an exotic to show, and 2 land at the same time

[zenith bolt]

nice, I like Guppies

Blue Ball Hauler, Euclid

Is there a way of getting seed without going into editor? ie the number

[pale oyster]

@zenith boltmjstral created a mod where you can see it when you scan

I go in my editor, so I can copy and paste it to the image when I rename it

[zenith bolt]

ok, i just dont fancy opening editor up every time i see a ship i like

[random parrot]

Guys, what is the luck of me getting the exact interior I want the exact colors I want and the exact crew I want what are the chances for a freighter?

[pale oyster]

42?

[timid siren]

assuming you mean the exact size, class, type, colors, and crew, those chances would be seriously low

[pale oyster]

https://www.reddit.com/r/NMSGlyphExchange/comments/11vrewt/grey_chrome_yellow_needlenose_vector/

^that makes me almost want to use a needle-nose again, as much as I learned to hate running around and jumping over them

[random parrot]

Yeah, I may have gotten exactly what I wanted through a pirate fight in like one warp

[timid siren]

dang

[random parrot]

A gek freighter in red with the pre derelict freighter interior

unfortunately it’s a C class I hope in the future will be able to upgrade freighters to S class I still took it

[olive wraith]

some haulers people might like (euclid)

[warped pulsar]

Duhuuude, I lucked out

Quite the stats if I do say so myself

[undone granite]

Still maneuvers like a hauler

[warped pulsar]

Eh.

Managable

[undone granite]

Actually my hauler maneuvers better than my personal ls

[smoky drum]

Oof

[safe pecan]

What’s the deal with this little stub? Are they common?

[smoky drum]

In different shapes sure but just funny to have

They just dont make sense

[safe pecan]

Yeah I didn’t buy it but it’s just so weird haha

[pale oyster]

🙂

[patent grail]

@pale oyster Enjoying your Scooty Puff Jr? Lol

[pale oyster]

@patent grailit looks less silly than the orbs, but I didn't care for the cockpit view

S-Class fighter, first wave

[safe pecan]

Aw he kinda cute

[marsh pagoda]

anyone know where i could get a Resurgent Class "Star Destroyer" ? i've been looking for hours and i have had zero luck. im in the Euclid Galaxy

[woeful flicker]

Are you triggering the freighter battle?

[marsh pagoda]

trying too

[woeful flicker]

3 hours of game time and 5 warps.. the 5th warp will trigger the freighter battle.. then it's just a matter of checking the systems to see if it's what you want. You have to create a restore point before your 5th warp so you can reload and check a different system if you don't find what you are looking for.

[marsh pagoda]

alright, i have probably warped like 30 times and haven't gotten one yet

not sure what to do

[woeful flicker]

And then... if you are trying to roll a certain class you would keep reloading and warping to that specific system....

Have you triggered any freighter battle as of yet?

[marsh pagoda]

yes. i had one this morning but haven't since then

[woeful flicker]

Once you trigger one and continue playing it is then another 3 hours of in game play time before another battle spawns

[marsh pagoda]

yea, that one this morning was like 7 hours ago

i should have had at least 2 battles triggered

since then

[woeful flicker]

Of play time though? Not in pause or menus

[marsh pagoda]

yea of play time

[woeful flicker]

I would restart my game and see if that clears it up

[marsh pagoda]

alright ill try it.

[woeful flicker]

It should always be 3 hours and 5 warps

[marsh pagoda]

once i restart my game does the clock restart?

[woeful flicker]

No

[marsh pagoda]

alright ill try it now

[woeful flicker]

I hope it works for you. Otherwise I'm not sure if it's locked behind something else progression wise

Good luck, I'm signing out ✌

[marsh pagoda]

thanks man!

[hollow wharf]

First AI-piloted squid I've ever encountered after five years of playing, and it hecking just. Lands on my freighter in front if my current ship. Yes, please.
Edit: euclid

[dawn badger]

Nice

[quaint sapphire]

Hot take: squids look ugly and are only sought out because they are rare

[dreamy crypt]

I also dont like squids, no part variety and no uniqe cockpit.

[split breach]

Never liked squids personally, and I ditched exotics entirely now that I got a wonderful color-matching solar

Solars are the cooler exotics for me, with lotsa color options, better moving parts and not being a pain in the ass to look for

[dreamy crypt]

The only one solar config that i wanted dont exist in the game. Full white Raven with torpedo tips and grapple wings

[carmine cypress]

Euclid. Consistently shows up on space station about 5 minutes average after every reload. Sometimes comes in on first wave.

[split breach]

Please include galaxy name when posting pictures with glyphs

[carmine cypress]

Sorry sometimes I forget

[crystal cave]

That's a regular style. And a mohawk if my eyes aren't failing

[patent grail]

@ebon crown Mohawk, Shark/Long cockpit, Short arms, Fruitbowl/Big feet, Backpedals

[ebon crown]

Man, y'all know your stuff lol

Is it a good one? Rare, not rare?

I think it looks pretty cool though. Ngl

[crystal cave]

Good is all relative to your taste

[patent grail]

Rarity is a very tough quality to judge in NMS, but no, it doesnt look like anything special

[ebon crown]

Okey dokey

I really like the aggressive looking ships

And this looks aggressive lol

[patent grail]

That really just means its your own judgement of how a ship looks/feels thats most important

[crystal cave]

Tusked would be what some call bearded, no?

[ebon crown]

Now I've read about living frigates. Are those a thing too? Like the big frigates that escort my freighter

[patent grail]

So seems like you grasp the important part lol. And yes, you need Dream Aerial blueprint from Frigate expedition to get 1st living one

[ebon crown]

Oh ok. Yeah, that's gonna be on my to do list this week lol

[patent grail]

If youve ever sent out frigates tis worth checking if you already has blueprint

[ebon crown]

I really like the whole living ship concept. But mainly because I'm a sci Fi super nerd and it makes me think of Farscape

I haven't yet because I can't figure out what kind of fuel they use to save my life lol

[patent grail]

Yeah there's dozens of Moiya's flying around in NMS, lol.

[ebon crown]

Lol. Damn

I was gonna name it Moiya lol

[patent grail]

They use Oxygen/Mordite for launch fuel iirc, Silver/Gold for Pulse, Chromatic Metal for Warp, Pugneum for Shield?

Something like that

[ebon crown]

All easy stuff to farm

I've got stacks upon stacks of most resources lol

[patent grail]

Yeah, all raw material fuels is one of the selling points

[ebon crown]

Well, warp cells have never been an issue for me lol

I've got more than I could ever use lol

[patent grail]

I didnt say it was a selling point for everyone - at one point I was flying a Squid with 3550LY range that got 5 jumps to a tank lol.

[ebon crown]

Damn lol

[patent grail]

That was when X mods were actually a bitch to roll

[ebon crown]

I would love to get a ship that looks like the creature you get the living water from in starbirth

I love my X mods lol

[patent grail]

Squid is as close as it gets

[ebon crown]

Do you have pictures?

[patent grail]

Squid locations in all 60 Colours + 4 duplicates, Impoxectin galaxy

[ebon crown]

I mean, I can kinda see it lol

@bleak mapleplanetary coordinates are needed for anyone to be able to find this

RIGHT after I pointed out to another about proper info... LMAO

[zenith bolt]

it happens

[pale oyster]

Need +- coords for crashed ships. You can see them in your scanner visor or ship cockpit

[zenith bolt]

like this

one of the better looking Proteus I have found... a keeper for me

[nocturne badger]

So cute!

I’m not sure if it’s the same place as that guy posted (prolly not), but I do have one with me if someone wants to get the similar pinky ship in Euclid (credit belongs to the player name shown in pic)

[pale oyster]

@nocturne badgersimilar colors, different body, personally like the looks of yours better

[nocturne badger]

I like this one too xD might change it to this one after I log on

[alpine jackal]

When buying the starship trails and the figures, is there anything i should buy first? either of the figures, or any particular trails?

[tardy carbon]

red solar, hilbert

[tardy carbon]

how you wish

you can buy the figurines first but i believe they cost a lot

and the trails are a little cheaper

[alpine jackal]

Yeah this was the bit i was looking for.

I was trying to ask how to arrange them when I got them, but i ended up finding what i was looking for. thank you anyways for the reply. 🙂

[digital shadow]

Euclid

[hollow wharf]

100% agree, but I couldn't not buy it after all this time. Even better, it’s on my living ship save, so the weirdo boats are together 😂

[steady flicker]

Some cute fighters I saw today
(Euclid)

[pale oyster]

squids are only sought out because they are rare? LMAO.... someone doesn't know stats very well 🙂

[winter obsidian]

Why does this system have mainly blue ships? (Euclid)

[zenith bolt]

Rng

[winter obsidian]

It's still funny

[zenith bolt]

You do tend to find that, like I found 2× white solar ships but different designs at same place

[wary bridge]

Anyone else having problems with the game loading? The game crashed 5 times upon loading in

[rugged sonnet]

Euclid

[rugged sonnet]

My daily driver.

[ebon crown]

Does anyone know where I can find this particular living ship? I saw this at anomaly and I really liked how it looked

[pale oyster]

@ebon crownstuff like that, I use google for reverse image search, see if it leads to a reddit post or anywhere

there are hundreds and hundreds of LS entries at the creative discord

[ebon crown]

That kind of stuff is confusing to be to be honest lol

[pale oyster]

@ebon crowngo on google search page, upper right click on Images

then you get a new search box, click on the middle icon, serch by image

[ebon crown]

No. I know what reverse image searching is lol. I meant trying to navigate through countless forums and posts looking for the info I need. I get information overload very easily.

[pale oyster]

good luck, then

[ebon crown]

That's why I'm here. That's kinda what this channel is for..

[rugged sonnet]

its more like...look for your ship in game and if you find some cool stuff while you search then post it here.

[ebon crown]

Then why's it called "Ship hunting" and not "Ship showcase"?

[rugged sonnet]

we are all hunting xD

its better that way honestly. look for your own ship and you never know what you might find.

[ebon crown]

Well. I figured I'd ask, there are a lot of players who are much more well informed than I. Maybe they know, maybe they don't. I've seen others asking similar questions for other ship types that got answers. So maybe.
If not, oh well. I tried

[rugged sonnet]

at the risk of sounding trite...

its the journey, not the destination.

[pale oyster]

my own experience, when I browse through a specific channel looking for something, I end up finding many more treasures than I was trying to find

[ebon crown]

Meh. I've spent 5-6 hours looking for different living ships. That's enough journey for me in that department lol

[pale oyster]

we're all different 🙂

[wraith quiver]

It's near impossible to find or even use a SE to make a ship. Just based on a photo. Best bet you got is the reverse image search

Unless

Ehhh

Got something close

Bit more on the red side

Aha

[ebon crown]

If I get truly desperate I might. But it was more of a "Hey that's cool, I kinda want one" situation. If I don't find one, I'm not too worried about it, I still have some other pretty cool looking ships

[wraith quiver]

This is the cloosest one i could find

Will this do?

How about this?

[ebon crown]

Was my comment deleted?? Lol

[wraith quiver]

No it wasn't

I get it isn't exactly what you want i'm trying to get you the next best thing

[ebon crown]

Weird, it just disappeared on my end. Oh well lol. And uhh that's a pretty good looking one

[wraith quiver]

Really weird

Will this ship do?

[kind parrot]

Anyone know a system with a small, round exotic ship with the little round thrusters on the sides?

[ebon crown]

Let me compare it to the ones I already have and get back to ya

[pale oyster]

scroll up and see, I have posted some exotics here, and I have many others that I havent posted here

[kind parrot]

Pog thanks

[ebon crown]

These are the ones I already have. I wanted to replace one of them with the one I took a pic of becuase it looks much more aggressive and I liked the black/purple combo

I want to keep myself limited to 2, but until I find the 2 that I want to actually work on upgrading, I'm going to keep looking around lol

[kind parrot]

None of those were quite what I was looking for : (

[pale oyster]

I don't know the command for the creative discord invite, but there is a channel for exotics and you'll find every type there is there

[kind parrot]

Like this but colorful

[ebon crown]

Thanks for trying though. I really appreciate it.

I'll just keep looking around, hopefully I'll find one eventually lol

[pale oyster]

that's the game

[undone marsh]

Euclid (galaxy 1) today's finds

[ebon crown]

I have a couple like those. I really like the ones that look like Battlestar Galactica fighters

[undone marsh]

Vipers 👍

[ebon crown]

Yeah. I forgot what they were called lol

[pale oyster]

@kind parrotlike this?

[ebon crown]

I'd love to find something that looks similar to the cylon raiders

[kind parrot]

Oooh

Ye

[undone marsh]

Actual nice shuttle in Euclid

[kind parrot]

😀👍

I like my shuttle

[ebon crown]

It's a pancake lol

[undone marsh]

Just like cylons 😆

[pale oyster]

@kind parrotso, I didn't grab the glyphs, I posted it on a site for the Seed. So I have it, but can't tell you where to go find it

[undone marsh]

@kind parrot what colour exotic are you searching for?

[ebon crown]

My shuttle

[kind parrot]

Preferably teal, pink, or yellow, but any color except red or anything dark would be nice

[pale oyster]

@ebon crownthat is a royal exotic

[ebon crown]

It is?

What does that mean exactly?

[pale oyster]

@ebon crownin the pinned section is a parts naming chart for exotics

short top fin means royal

side wings, single thruster

[undone marsh]

I found these myself in Euclid

[ebon crown]

I'll check it out. Lol yeah I'm dumb when it comes to ship types, classes, names and rarities lol

[pale oyster]

everyone is, until they aren't

[ebon crown]

Lol

Tooth, you like the shuttle I posted? I can help you dupe it if you want.

I can't remember where I found it otherwise I'd just do that lol

[zenith bolt]

Eiss galaxy - Blue Exotic with Gold Trim

[ebon crown]

Could you possibly link me to that chart you were talking about? I can't seem to find it

[pale oyster]

top right corner of this page, there is a thumbtac icon, click on that

[undone marsh]

Some others I found in Euclid

[kind parrot]

I like the little one

[kind parrot]

I’m mostly looking for ones without fins

[ebon crown]

This stuff?

[pale oyster]

@ebon crownyes

[timid siren]

whats funny is that you can sometimes find exotics that are just the cockpit

[ebon crown]

Ok ty

[pale oyster]

this is a shuttle cockpit only LOL

[undone marsh]

Seen just the ball of exotic too

[pale oyster]

yeah, I made some of those, too, but I don't like them

remind me of an escape pod, not a ship that can fly

[pale oyster]

the side wing double or single thruster royals are the ones I like the looks of the best

[timid siren]

Ive got an exotic just like that top left one

[ebon crown]

I really love my royal exotic

It looks so cool

[zenith bolt]

I have a crashed location of the yellow guppy

[pale oyster]

it's a good ship, with good stats to build on

exotics with gold trim are capable of higher stats than the silver trim

[ebon crown]

I haven't actually done much with it yet lol just been sitting in my garage

I only have two fully upgraded ships

A fighter and a solar

Is that thing glowing blue?

[woeful flicker]

Here's a yellow one... usually comes in 2nd wave

Euclid

[humble breach]

I want a living ship but I have no idea how to get one I think I am still on the main story right after the anomaly just been exploring for months looking for one.

[kind parrot]

Haha, nice

[ebon crown]

They are a pain

[zenith bolt]

No not glowing blue, its visor view, to show coord

[ebon crown]

You have to buy a void egg from anomaly for 3500 QS IIRc

Then pulse around with it till you get contacted by a strange ship

It'll start the "Starbirth" quest, which takes a bare minimum of 5 days to complete

[humble breach]

oh man

[kind parrot]

Also save before the final mission

I did the whole thing just for my living starship host to not load in properly but I didn’t know what to expect so I didn’t notice until it was too late

[ebon crown]

You have to collect a bunch of stuff, make a bunch more stuff, fly around and interact with alien structures

[woeful flicker]

I can give you an egg if you need so you don't have to spend the qs

[humble breach]

they aren't tradable too?

[ebon crown]

Yeah, I lost mine at the very end right as I was gonna claim it lol

[kind parrot]

I got a c-class dull grey shuttle after over 5 days of work cuz I was busy : (

[ebon crown]

I had to buy another void egg lol

[humble breach]

yeah idk how to get qc yet xD

[kind parrot]

Space anomaly

Daily missions and a weekend mission I think

[woeful flicker]

Missions at the nexus

[ebon crown]

I can give you a void egg if you want

I have spares

[humble breach]

well I only been in there like 2 or 3 times for the artimis

[woeful flicker]

Daily is 400.. stacks up to 4x.. weekend 1 time 1800

[humble breach]

dang yeah i'll take one

[ebon crown]

Yeah, the anomaly will become a second home lol

[humble breach]

save right after too

[ebon crown]

Bet, give me a bit. I'll be on in a sec. Shoot me your friend code

I'm currently toying around with NMS.center lol

[kind parrot]

I often park my freighter above my settlement or local base, then the space anomaly right next to it. Sometimes I park both next to a space station

[ebon crown]

Anyone have tips for how to get a S-class freighter? I have A class, but I realised you can't upgrade it to S, so now I want to find one.... is it just luck?

[grand tinsel]

Patience, find the model you like - in a T3 economy or Outlaw systems for best chances - 2% in T3, 5% in Outlaw
You can check out this post for some more info: #nms-questions message

thanks!

[ruby dove]

whats the big difference between S and A bc im pretty new

[grand tinsel]

Higher bonuses to stats, higher max inventory

[winter obsidian]

Looks like a sentinel solar

[pale oyster]

I honestly don't know shit about solar ships. They got added while I was on an Elite Dangerous kick, but they have never appealed to me before. This is the 1st one that got my attention.

[winter obsidian]

They are very good ships

Look at the upgrade thy have

[pale oyster]

I looked at everything about the stats when I came back... my squids are still better.

[winter obsidian]

Yeah

Solars can be handy in early game though

[pale oyster]

What I meant about not know, was part names, styles, etc

[winter obsidian]

Aah ok

[pale oyster]

so are there ones called sentinel solar ships?

[winter obsidian]

Nah

[toxic pumice]

I want to buy a hauler ship

Can I do so from other players?

[livid marten]

You can buy one from NPCs. Just go to any space station or trading tower place and wait until you find one. You can use visor to see type and class of ship

Or you can find a crashed one on a planet, etc.

[toxic pumice]

ooo

What's the difference b/w hauler and shuttle?

[livid marten]

Shuttle - Low & Balanced Bonuses
Ships of this type have balanced stats, with no significant class bonus compared to the other archetypes. These ships look typically blocky with a rectangular canopy, but some ships in this class have a tubular fuselage. Shuttles do not have a large inventory tier but are great for starter travellers due to their cheap cost and increased low-tier inventory space.

Hauler - High Shield Bonus
Ships of this type feature a shield absorb class bonus, and they also boast the highest possible inventory spaces. These ships are the largest out of all the other starships, and may or may not have wing features on them.

from wiki https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Starship#Starship_Archetypes

[toxic pumice]

Okay. I got 2 broken ship aside from the main radiant one I have. I dont use either of them. How can I make money off of those? Can I sell those? What do you recommend?

[livid marten]

Make that ship your active ship, go to base and "summon it", then enter it to change that as your primary, then use base teleport to space station, then "scrap" it using the computer with ship hologram on it, that is near the ecosuit mod upgrade seller to "scrap" it.

Scrapping it gives you things you can sell for money and sometimes starship mods or starship inventory expansion items

Just don't scrap your real ship. Be careful and remember you can only scrap your active ship -- the one that's in the space station with you

[toxic pumice]

okok

It only gave me 950k rip

i thought it'd give me 4.5mil or somehting

32 million

[rugged sonnet]

ship prices are mostly based on cargo slot count. haulers being more expensive as they have more cargo slots. thats why your crashed ship didnt sell for much as it doesnt count the broken slots. the more slots you fix before you sell it the more units you will get for it

[sacred cosmos]

Haulers are expensive

[toxic pumice]

okok

[sacred cosmos]

Btw i would move that thruster upgrade to beside the other one

More bonuses

[toxic pumice]

Ooo okay

[sacred cosmos]

Do u know about adjacency bonuses?

[toxic pumice]

nope

im just trying to buy a good ship .-.

gonna try and see if i can con an NPC with broken ship

nope, theyre smart ._.

anyways, what type of ship is best for day-to-day usage?

multirole, perhaps.

[pale oyster]

out of 100 people, you will maybe get 99 different answers 🙂

find one that looks cool to you

@sacred cosmos Exotics are T2 post-4.0

Solars are T1 only, Shuttles T1/T2

[sacred cosmos]

I got this from #nms-questions so ye, ill edit it now tho

[livid marten]

My favs are solar, because I like how they recharge when not in use. Less to worry about running out of fuel, plus (besides damage) they do pretty well in 3/4 categories (shields, maneuverability, hyperdrive)

[sacred cosmos]

Every ship can recharge with a nexus upgrade. Its good that they do it stock tho

Plus they look snazzy

im not really looking for speed or anything just lookin for big heavy cargo ships that have lots of storage

[nocturne badger]

Freighter can be one of the choices. Shuttle and hauler can also have nice storage but you will lose the items if you die. So if you are new to the game, get shuttle or hauler for temporary storage. In late games(?), you can get a freighter for even huge storage. @vagrant coral

[radiant herald]

Random find, worth it or wait for a capital?

[fleet pewter]

What is T2 mean? The size of system or its economic level?

[compact maple]

Economic

[patent grail]

@fleet pewter In this case, initial slot limits

@compact maple

T1/2/3 refers to either economy or starship size when it comes to initial slot counts

id like a nice hauler for now

i can hold my own in a fight i just need a cargo ship

if you are on pc, I'd for sure get it, then learn to swap seeds to make it look however you like

[radiant herald]

@pale oyster on ps5, ended up getting it.

[prisma lava]

Do freighters share the first wave rule like starships? If I ran into a S class freighter my fist warp. Would it show up again for someone the first time?

[pale oyster]

@prisma lavanever heard of that trend, so I highly highly doubt it

if it were, there would be reddit posts of locations

I had the best of luck with my first freighter find. It was my second pirate battle, found a system I just got done tool hunting in.. Knew I had 3hrs logged and was on my 3rd or 4th warp. My first warp back in got the pirate battle... Checked her out. It was an S-class(very happy with design as well) ! My mind was blown. Get me a lotto ticket right? Sacrifice me into the volcano. Wanted to share my unbelievable luck. I'll try to get a ss

[marble lichen]

question about trading post ship waves, do the waves repeat themselves eventually, or is each wave a newly generated spawn? for example if the system's exotic doesn't show up in say 10 waves, is there ever a chance of the exotic landing there if I just keep waiting? if no, are these waves going to stay the same for the whole planet or just this specific post?

[patent grail]

@marble lichen Waves at a TP will change over time,due to the mechanics of how spawns are determined, but reloading after you see each 1st wave will shuffle through them more quickly. There tends to be 1 or 2 random seeds aside from the Exotic that resist spawning in each system.

[marble lichen]

ahh okay, thanks for the answer... could you explain your last sentence for me? I don't understand what it means

[pale oyster]

I land on the ground at trading posts, so I don't reload, and exotics eventually show up. I find stuff to do while I wait

[cinder bone]

So there's basically a guaranteed exotic in every system? I thought each system had a pre-generated set of ships/pilots and that's it

[zenith bolt]

Yep, 1 of them is exotic

[cinder bone]

which is why I've sometimes seen the same ship and pilot 2 or 3 times in the same station at the same time

[marble lichen]

thank you all for the help

[pale oyster]

a few days ago I waited a while, then 2 landed at the same time

that was a first for me at a trading post

[cinder bone]

is it always the same exotic or will the game spawn a new one next time?

[zenith bolt]

Same, 1 exotic per pool

Except for uninhabited systems, where none

Or so I'm led to believe

[cinder bone]

good to know 👍

[zenith bolt]

It could just take a while to appear

90min I waited for 1 yesterday

[cinder bone]

also good to know... not sure I have that kind of patience 😂

[zenith bolt]

I knew the ship was there, as I had it from a previous save, but waves had changed since I had it last, so it took a bit longer

[cinder bone]

Now i'm tempted to go to my old planets and see what I missed

[zenith bolt]

Part of "fun" or addictions of ship hunting is finding those exotics that spawn in 1st or 2nd waves

Yer some of my systems that I frequented alot before waypoint expansion now spawn exotics reliably within 5 waves, but they arnt the ones I like

I'm also quietly looking for a shielded ball hauler or gull winged hauler, I want to find my own, not get off nmse

You also see some other designs of ships you like waiting for exotics, I usually screenshot them with portal address

[cinder bone]

I've never gotten a ship based on someone else's address. WAY more satisfying to find my own

ideally, they're crashed and I can get them for free

I'm dumb enough to not even mind repairing them

[zenith bolt]

Yer I've only ever found 2x crashed exotics on my own, way more time consuming

But I'm not sure there is a guarenteed exotic crash site in a system

[cinder bone]

no, probably not

[zenith bolt]

But if someone posts a fighter or solar or something I like, I have no problem going to get it, same with some multitools, if they look cool.

[cinder bone]

I just look on enviously wishing I could find something that cool, haha

[zenith bolt]

But the ships I use over multiple saves, tend to be ships i have found

And only i have location for them, as then they are unique

Its one of reasons I won't fly the golden vector or speeder, every tom, duck and Harry have them

[cinder bone]

Yeah, they look cool, but I've also never used any of those reward ships

[compact maple]

As long as we're discussing ship hunting, this is what I do. How wrong am I and what should I do differently?

I land and spawn a save beacon and save right away.
I watch the first wave or two then reload to check for 1st waves.
Then I usually sit there for 10-20 minutes or until the Exotic shows up

[zenith bolt]

Its basically what we all do

[compact maple]

I like to hunt T3s with 1 conflict.

[zenith bolt]

Although I dont put a save beacon out

[compact maple]

👌

[zenith bolt]

I look at all as equal chance I think, but I like t3 as better looking other ships,

[compact maple]

I read somewhere the higher conflict, the slower the ship spawn.

[zenith bolt]

Before reloading, I usually check mt cabinet as well to see if s class

[compact maple]

Yep, at stations. I should have mentioned that was for trading posts

[zenith bolt]

Yer I usually do stations for wave 1 to 3 ships

Not really tested if same waves on a planet trade post

[compact maple]

2nd wave too. Someone just found a Squid with great superchargers....second wave at a space station

[zenith bolt]

I've only ever found 1 wild squid in 1500 hrs of play

Wild being not via nmse etc

[compact maple]

I have never found a Squid. 100's of Exotics, never a Squid

[zenith bolt]

Red Ball Hauler unshielded Euclid

Blue Squid Euclid, not 1st 5 waves

[compact maple]

💯

[zenith bolt]

sometimes its just luck and its there in station when you dock

[compact maple]

Lol, you have to hurry before it takes off!! Land darn you! Land!

[zenith bolt]

yep lol

1 thing i will say, I dont know if its coincidence, but I seem to find far less 1st or 2nd wave exotics these days

Euclid - White Explorer

Same system in Euclid - Chrome Fighter

@compact maple what sort of time frame does it usually take for exotic to land at trade post? Similar to station?

[compact maple]

Stations don't work so well for me. They seem to stop sending ships or send them really slow. The Conflict level affects how fast the ships come too. Wealthy or Opulent systems with 1 Conflict level are the best.

Most time I'll wait 15-20 minutes before I leave or the Exotic has shown up. Sometimes it takes 1 minute, sometimes it never comes. Most times within 15 minutes in a Wealthy 1 Conflict systems.

The exact same thing whether a Space station or a Trading Post

[zenith bolt]

The thing i dont like about trade posts are the annoying pirates who attack

[compact maple]

The 1 Conflict level helps a lot with that

[pale oyster]

I shut off combat in settings when I go to trade posts, unless I am on permadeath

[compact maple]

Yes, I have a Ship Hunting save

[pale oyster]

if I really really want to find a ship, and fast, I take a save with only one ship, and use the freighter. Pulse 8 seconds, summon frieghter, scan ships that spawn, pulse 8 seconds, summon, scan

6 ships will land in the freighter

[zenith bolt]

Hmm might try that

This save has 2 ships, could scrap 1

[pale oyster]

on PC, I use the comma to scroll thru the scanned ships

beleive it is D1 for controllers

not sure

[zenith bolt]

Better colour pictures in freighter also

[summer forge]

Is this S?

[dreamy crypt]

Exotics are always S class

[zenith bolt]

Sorry yes, I went to bed as it was 02.30 am, as Astaroth88 says all exotics including squids only come in s class

[kind parrot]

Hunting for frigates 👍

2 down 2 to go this is going much faster than I expected

One to go I am very excited I’ll finally have a complete fleet

I’ve done it

[kind parrot]

Are freighters the same as starships where there’s only a set selection of ships one could encounter or is each one random?

[pale oyster]

each system has its freighters that are set as you arrive or pulse around and they spawn. So if you find a system freighter you like, and there are 3 freighters there with variations, but can only enter one of them, you pulse around til the one you like has the open bay to enter

or reload

[winter obsidian]

Hey I am new to the game and I need some help. SO there was a shipwreck where I went to and I kinda repaired the thrusters...and flown into the space station. But I want the ship cuz it's A-class and mine is C. Do I have to repare evry single component?

[silent wyvern]

Yup, every single one - if you want to keep it and utilize the inventory space ofc.

[winter obsidian]

Is it better to fly my C-class in the meantime, farm money and buy myself an s-class?

[silent wyvern]

Most probably

[silent wyvern]

I only ended up installing 2 S class weapon upgrades and 1 S class shield upgrade in the starter-ship.
Was enough to get by until I had all the materials to tackle and repair a crashed Exotic S-class

The Solar is NOT my find. I am just sharing it with you
The Exotic is my find
As you can see from both the Glyph image and the Coordinates image, both starships are in the same system. In the images both ships are on the landing pad at the same time

These images are an hour old. I went to double check before I replied. About a 15 minute wait to get both ships. Probably not at the same time.......I just got unlucky as I was trying to get images of both
Enjoy!

[rugged sonnet]

thats the 3rd solar i have seen with a square slot and all 3 of them have hex sails. when i was hunting them i also noticed some other hex sail solars that were really close to being square slots

they also have some colors the same

mine is green with blue sails and the reddit post is the opposite

and yours has green sails also

oh wait i just noticed it s the same ship

Opps

[rugged sonnet]

the one underneath is with the green body

they both have trash core stats tho

i did spens a little more time seeking out one with better stats but moved on after a while

maybe soon i will start hitting up more pirate systems again

this one has reasonably good core stats for a fighter but i really dont like the wing body combo. those wings only really go with needlenose or maybe rasa or maybe stubby alphas ... basicaly anything except barrel body

[compact maple]

YeS

[neon veldt]

question

how big do S class capital freighters are

in terms of slots

are they 34+20?

Cuz I found a A class with those

and I have been reloading like 0ver 100 times now for that S and no luck

[rugged sonnet]

that sounds about right yeah

[neon veldt]

how about the S class

what am I missing

[rugged sonnet]

funny story i just started a permadeath save and decided to buy a system freighter as early as i could, took the payoff on the first freighter battle and then when i did the 2nd freighter battle it gave me a s class large sentinel freighter but i didn't have enough units to buy it.

i think A and S class can have the same starting slots

but the S class can be upgraded to have more overall

[neon veldt]

So is worth to continue to reroll?

[rugged sonnet]

depends if you really want the extra slots and hyperdrive range

S class will also give your frigates better bonus for frigate expeditions. lower fuel consumption ect ect

[neon veldt]

is the difference that big

to be worth it?

been wasting 3hours doing rerolls

[rugged sonnet]

between A and S? probably not

[neon veldt]

Aight. I'm taking it then

[rugged sonnet]

what i do if i get an A is just keep a compat freighter base and save up some extra units so if i come across an S by chance i can buy it without sacrificing to much

i probably wouldnt waste any cargo bulkheads on an A class if i was looking to upgrade to S later

when you buy a new freighter there is supposed to be an option to transfer your base but it rarely works in my experience so i just delet the base first then buy the new one

but yeah bear in mind that in the late game units are cheap and your freighter base can be rebuilt so if you do find an S class you like you should buy it without hesitation and just rebuild your freighter base if you need to. also remeber to re-pack your freighter technology and move the contents of the freighter inventory in to storage/other ships before you make the trade

ALSO if you want to buy a capitol freighter after a battle DONT take the reward as it will make it impossible to buy the freighter

[spice lake]

I see stuff online saying to reload the restore point on a station to get the 1st 4 ships that land to be consistent types/models, but it seems randomized?

[pale oyster]

a little of both... if you repeat it, you will see some same ships coming in at the first most of the time

if someone advertises a 1st wave exotic, you might see it 5 of 10 reloads, or 7 of 10 reloads

[spice lake]

Trying to get a solar ship and so far it hasn't even shown up at the station

[pale oyster]

Is it postd as 1st wave?

[undone granite]

Any glyphs for the solar?

[spice lake]

No it's one I discovered. Are the ships that tend to land in the first wave determined by the system?

[pale oyster]

@spice lakeIf it hasn't come in on the first couple of waves after 3 or 4 reloads, I would find a trading depot and park your own ship on the ground so 5 NPC ships can land, and I would watch for it there

[compact maple]

In the 3rd image

[spice lake]

I tried reloading at the trade post too and it seemed like it took a few reloads for each solar ship to show up and then it wouldn't be one of the landing ships anyway, so I guess I'll just have to wait

[compact maple]

You've just described Ship Hunting 😀

[spice lake]

I have an A class version but it sounds like the 50k nanites lands you with worse stats than a nature S class?

[compact maple]

I do not know

[pale oyster]

@spice lakeI believe it is the other way around.

shit, I wish my memory served better..... I think it is based on what your core maneuver stat is at the A you rolled.

scan your own ship and look at the core stats for maneuvering

[undone granite]

Ty bro

[pale oyster]

@spice lake368 is low for an A class, so yeah, I would try to find an S to see how it rolls

I wish DH were here, he is the genius at stats

[spice lake]

I'd probably be happy with S class with good slots rather than hoping to roll good stats on top lol

[pale oyster]

ship-hunting can require a lot of patience, so best wishes

[spice lake]

2 more A class just spawned with the same core maneuverability?

[patent grail]

@spice lake Core maneuverability is always seedlocked, at A 395-407.5 is what you want for top tier ships.

[spice lake]

So it's linked to the skin?

[pale oyster]

speak of teh debbil...

@patent grailso with a low A stat, is the S doomed to also be low? And will be be lower or higher to pay to upgrade to s vs find the natural s

So in console speak, because we cannot use seeds or editors, what Core Maneuverability should us console players look for?

[patent grail]

@pale oyster Core maneuverability is the same whether bought or upgraded, it's the best stat to use to judge seed quality.

[spice lake]

The exotic does seem to spawn in the first wave here once and a while, but I really love this solar ship skin D'x

[patent grail]

@compact maple ~382.5-395 at B Class, 395-407.5 at A, = 432.5-445.0 at S

[compact maple]

My paper notebook is getting full

Yes, I take notes from this discord

[pale oyster]

@spice lakepeoplelike to know where 1st wave exotic spawns are, so you'd make people happy if you took a screenshot with glyphs and shared it, with the name of the galaxy

[spice lake]

I'll see if I can snag it when it spawns again

This is at a trade post though so idk if that makes a difference?

[undone granite]

Same bro

[undone granite]

@compact maple your solar has 3 less on the base Stat than @rugged sonnet s solar, and I'm going for pure speed

😭

[finite linden]

Anyone have a very cool looking ship?

[undone granite]

Euclid

[zenith bolt]

Maybe scroll up, there are loads

[old vault]

What's the process these days for reloading to get a higher class freighter after the pirate attack? Wait three hours, warp 5 times. Where do you save and reload from? The system before? In system before fighting the pirates? (I know it changed in relatively recent history.)

...because it's not after you fight the pirates. I did that, saved on station, reloaded, and the freighter was gone.

[compact maple]

This is the way I did it a few days ago.
Play and warp until the battle starts
Ignore the battle and fly into the space station. Leave your ship and create a Restore Point. The battle will disappear.

Fly into the freighter and check its class with your scanner. If it's an S class buy the freighter.
If it's another class, reload your restore point and it will take you back to the space station.
Fly back to the freighter......rinse repeat

Don't reload at the space station. Just create a Restore point.
Only reload on the non S class freighter.

[old vault]

Ignore battle and save immediately. That sounds right. I'll have to try tomorrow though since the 3 hours makes this a pain. This is a new save for the steam deck so I'll be fine with A class. I have an S class on my old main save but that took something like 8 hours of reloads back when you would have to re-fight the pirates each time.

Thanks

Love the hopper!

[finite linden]

Is anyone able to take me to a system with cool exotics?

[cold sky]

I can take you anywhere in Euclid, Eissentam, or Sudzerbal if you've got coordinates to what you want, but each system that spawns exotics only spawns one so you'd have to know what you want. I usually go to https://www.reddit.com/r/NMSCoordinateExchange/ and use the search to find what I want, then portal there. If you find something you want to try for, DM me.

[patent grail]

Here's a hypothetical question for yous: if one wanted to target a specific System Freighter to reroll as their free S Class, one could use Nexus Slingshot to get there for it, but there are 3 per system, so do you always get the first, is it RNG, or something else?

@modest hemlock @heady wraith @worn sage @grand tinsel Thoughts?

[worn sage]

Ok, so this is something I’ve seen/observer very, very rarely in the game. The first jump system freighter isn’t specific, this is especially true in blackhole systems but the rarity puts me off. I’ve only seen this happen thrice.

In Broomerrai galaxy I’ve seen the model change.

Oh, btw is the slingshot method still viable?

[worn sage]

Galaxy doesn’t matter I guess.

[patent grail]

Ah, okay, so its got a scripted seed or seed correlation mechanic

[worn sage]

I don’t know what is seed correlation mechanic

I’ve always thought system freighter spawns to be scripted, tbh.

[patent grail]

Basically the seed isnt drawn from procgen of the system you find it in

And no, each system rolls 21 ship seeds, 5 hostile ship seeds, 5 frigate seeds, and 3 freighter seeds - those 3 freighter seeds are the 3 system models available, and the 1st doubles as capital model seed.

@worn sage

[worn sage]

Ah, I see.

Hmm! Now I wonder if my game glitched out

Because I haven’t witnessed the change a lot of times

[patent grail]

The hostile ship seeds can each spawn as fighter, hauler, explorer, shuttle, for 20 different attackers, each frigate seed can spawn as all 5 types, and i think the 1st frigate seed doubles as living seed.

[worn sage]

Isn’t pirate seed limited to 5 ships only?

[patent grail]

5 seeds, each able to spawn as 4 ship types

[worn sage]

Oh, ok

[patent grail]

Theoretically HG could add extra ships to purchase insystems the same way, have a couple seeds double flagged as 2 types.

[worn sage]

Hmm! Giving us more ship spawns

But yeah. For your question, I’ve only seen this happen two or three times in blackhole systems.

I don’t know if it’s a glitch or an intended mechanic

[rugged sonnet]

system freighters are so cheap wouldnt it just be easier to farm it the normal way?

its not like you need the battle for it to spawn like capital freighters.

like taking any old free system freighter and then targeting a specific system to exchange it for an S seems like a much better way than re-loading saves to get a specific free one.

[grand tinsel]

I'm not following the question anyways, system freighters can be continually found in a system with no need for a reload

[patent grail]

@grand tinsel I'm talking about using that first encounter to space station reroll a free S Class rather tban dealing with worrying about the bridge module spawning on the right one - moot point though, if the model isnt system native.

[grand tinsel]

Gotcha

[rugged sonnet]

so the question is something like does the first free freighter battle always choose seed number 1 or can it be random one of 3 seeds

or im still misunderstanding

and wth is seed correlation mechanic?

[pale oyster]

This is really intriguing, because even though system freighter are more accessible than capitals, you have 3x rng to beat for an S, given which of the 3 types will have the open bay

Excellent find! Thank you for sharing!

[livid marten]

I'm not sure if this is the right place or not, but I feel like the members here will be closest to who can help me. I have a strange request.

I'm forming my squadron and I'm looking for 4 Vy'keen wearing yellow (primary color) and black (secondary color) armor with "military" like titles (Commander, Captain, Lieutenant, Ensign, etc.). I've visited dozens of Vy'keen systems and I'll keep looking, but if anyone notices a pilot that matches this, please ping me with glyphs.

Thanks

[compact maple]

Do you care what kind of Starship they fly?

[livid marten]

No. I have already purchased their ships that I'll give them. Thanks

[compact maple]

I just found this one in Eissentam galaxy. Glyphs are in the images

[livid marten]

Thanks! That's exactly what I'm looking for. I'll check it out tonight.

hey gix, you got numbers on how manouverable this kinky

be baby be bboi

when fully upgraded?

im currently got me runnin a explorer's FIRESPRAYER. with 1k manouverability

[pale oyster]

@robust patrolI looked at it, and I don't remember the number, but it wasn't enough to make me thrilled

[robust patrol]

and i can't upgrade any more. because i dont know how to keep my tech compatible it always overloads

[robust patrol]

😲

[nocturne badger]

what does the FOA mean

[pale oyster]

I don't know

some code referring to the pulse drive array

[nocturne badger]

ohhh okie

[winter obsidian]

im a new player and i went to a distress beacon to finally find a class S ship, which seems to be a bit overpowered... can someone experienced tell me how lucky i was? xD

[gaunt lake]

that's going to cost a lot to fix for a new player, but nice find

you might want to scrap it for units

@winter obsidiando you know how to scrap it without fixing it?

[winter obsidian]

NO

never xD

[gaunt lake]

lol up to you of course 😁

[fallow pollen]

New player, first s-class ship find... I've got a nice collection of repair kits which I'm willing to donate to help you fix it up. Unless you wanna make it a project of it and search out all the repairs yourself

[quasi nova]

summon it in the space anomaly, it will fix some parts for you

[winter obsidian]

idek whats the space anomaly

[winter obsidian]

wait, what? how can u give me stuff

[fallow pollen]

Players can trade goods when nearby. Though if you've not reached the anomaly yet I'd suggest doing that before me joining you(can cause quest bugs otherwise)

The anomaly is a big space ball you can summon and go to once you get past a certain point in the quests

[fallow pollen]

Drop me your friend code in my dm <options-network-cant remember the next part lol> and I'll help a bit.

[gaunt lake]

You need to follow the Artemis questline first. it's also strongly recommend not to do any multiplayer in the early stages and to avoid it for the story missions as a whole, to avoid some bugs/progress blocks.

[winter obsidian]

wait what? does the inventory save between worlds?

[gaunt lake]

@winter obsidian sounds to me like you're getting ahead of yourself a bit, that can cause some issues with your save

[winter obsidian]

yall throwing me random word, sturcture and quest names or whatever and i really dont know any of those yet LOL imma just figure it out by myself but thanks 😂

[winter obsidian]

huh?

[gaunt lake]

Artemis is the main story

[gaunt lake]

1 play solo until you get to the anomaly
2 play the story missions solo

[fallow pollen]

Very early in the game then. I respect that. Drop me a message if you need any help ✌️

[winter obsidian]

my gf bought the game for me and herself aswell it costher so much and we just wanna play together, im not interested in playing solo

[gaunt lake]

Understood but I'm trying to help you avoid some nasty bugs

the road to hell is paved with good intentions, and while people are trying to be helpful, if you don't heed those warnings you could break both of your saves, and you'll assuredly see some other issues

[fallow pollen]

Keep in mind the missions are only a small part of the game and once you're past them there's still plenty more you can do together afterwards.

[gaunt lake]

Exactly, the main story is basically a tutorial

[fallow pollen]

But if you bug out your game before that it will be a worse experience for you both

That's all I'm gonna say on the matter now. So godspeed and feel free to ask for help if you ever need it.

[gaunt lake]

@winter obsidian you don't have to take my word for it, you can go to the #nms-questions channel and ask any of the emissaries, they have the knowledge stone icon next to their name

[winter obsidian]

how can i break my saves?

[gaunt lake]

It's possible to get locked out of certain critical blueprints for example.

the missions will tend to be a mess overall in multiplayer, unfortunately

try putting disable multiplayer in the search function if you want to see how often it comes up in troubleshooting

[compact maple]

Very lucky indeed. I have NEVER found a crashed Exotic and I look for them!

[cold sky]

Water worlds are the easiest to find them on.

[zenith bolt]

Yep both of my finds are in water

@winter obsidian you have a location for that crashed exotic?

[nocturne badger]

first time seeing a X wing ship, might be rare (?). tho its C-class and idk how the SC will be. Euclid, underwater

[zenith bolt]

I take it that waypoint just changed the wave timings of exotics, and not the seeds/design of the exotic found in system?

Just been trying to get an pre waypoint 2nd wave that I found before waypoint, but taking a while

[zenith bolt]

White Solar with White hex sails Euclid

Euclid, same station seed: 0xBBAEB779E5F9C76B - Orange Exotic with Gold trim

I think its orange, not yellow

[pale oyster]

@zenith boltlooks orange to me

[zenith bolt]

Hehe sometimes they look yellow in photos

[pale oyster]

or brown

sometimes using the freighter is a lot faster, about the 4th pulse on this one

[compact maple]

You only have one starship on that save to keep the freighter slots open?

[pale oyster]

@compact mapleyes

[compact maple]

Ack............I love my starships. Time to start a new save and look forward to another freighter fest

[pale oyster]

@compact maplethis is my routine, mostly. Start a new PD save, gather resources for warp fuel, find traveller, find portal, jump to core, back track and discover all planets in systems I discovered and find all ships in non T1 economies. I take first free freighter during core jumps when it is triggered

[compact maple]

PD=Permadeath?

[pale oyster]

yes

[compact maple]

I have 100 hours on a PD. Why start that way?

[pale oyster]

I also have a couple of permanent ones. I love the challenge of the starts. Other times I do other challenges in them, such as not taking starter ship, or not using a ship at all.

I'll delete this one I'm on now in the next half hour, then most likely open a new one in the morning

If I find a really cool system I like, I use an app called NMS companion to save a specific spot, and can then transfer the player from a permanent save to that exact spot

[compact maple]

You're a mad man I tell you! Mad 😵‍💫 I think I love you! 😉

[pale oyster]

hahahaha, thanks.... I have some NMS friends that we have all learned ways to have fun from each other, but they are console, so cant use the resources I can

[compact maple]

I play on PS5. I don't have access to all those cool toys

[pale oyster]

nope, but my friends swear by those for playing the game

[compact maple]

Yes, I love it!

I love this game!

[pale oyster]

so like I do for my friends, if you need any specific kinds of ships, I can gift them to others

[compact maple]

I started 4 months ago. 1/1/23 New years day!

[pale oyster]

good start to the year

[compact maple]

Thank you very much for your kind offer! I'd rather have your knowledge though!!

[pale oyster]

DH is who I pay attention to around here

[compact maple]

I pay attention all the time here. I lurk here all day while I play

[pale oyster]

along with several others that are active here

bk is a valuable resource for this discord

I have lots of hours, but I have short term memory issues, so I forget details on a lot of stuff 🙂

[compact maple]

I keep notes. Lots of notebooks around our house

[pale oyster]

I also have folders of charts, and screenshots of answers to stuff

[compact maple]

I love you more now

[pale oyster]

LOL

[compact maple]

Chats, notes graphs....................I need to calm down

Man I wish I had stated playing NMS along time ago. I come from 8 years of Elder Scrolls Online. It got to be work so now I'm here and loving it!

[pale oyster]

getting to know people in these types of sites helps the game be more enjoyable, bouncing stuff off others

[compact maple]

I like Heros videos. I am active on his discord also

[prisma zodiac]

Oh sweet it's an Oculus

[pale oyster]

hahahha, nice trick

[prisma zodiac]

It was not a nice trick 😭

[pale oyster]

huh?

[prisma zodiac]

I got fooled - not tryna fool you lol

[pale oyster]

ohhhh

none of the rest of the freighter matches an oculus

[prisma zodiac]

It's way more obvious in picture mode

[pale oyster]

well, I had to scoot closer to the monitor to see the effect

my first impulse was "wait, how is THAT"

10 days left on Utopia...... not the best, but maybe I'll do a 4th run

[zenith bolt]

Euclid Galaxy -Orange exotic with Gold trim - Seed:0xEC8591587CDDD2A1

Was there just as I landed at trade centre

I've already done Utopia 4 times, 3 on steam and once on ps5, although I dont play on ps5 much, just wanted to unlock rewards

[pale oyster]

@zenith boltI slightly cheated on my 2nd run and swapped seeds from an ugly hauler to a arcwing hopper. No tech or anything, just the appearance 🙂

[zenith bolt]

Hmm I gave myself an op multitool and ball hauler

[pale oyster]

LOL

[zenith bolt]

Got this from a previous save, used to be 2nd wave, but cant get it to spawn now

I thought if Im gonna fly a hauler in expedition, its gonna be 1 I like look of

[pale oyster]

@zenith bolthave you tried ship hunting with your freighter?

[compact maple]

This is my favorite style and color. It looks like my current starship

[pale oyster]

II think it is the best looking of the exotics

[compact maple]

Opps, mine has the side thrusters

[zenith bolt]

not in that system no ive not

tried for hours at station and trade posts, its only 2 planet system

[pale oyster]

I used a yellow and a red one all the time in my 1st save when I reached mid game and kinda knew how to do most stuff

now I mostly use squids for the maneuver stat

@zenith boltwhat economy level is the system?

[zenith bolt]

not sure

[pale oyster]

in discovery, what description does it have

[zenith bolt]

not in that system atm so couldnt say

[pale oyster]

ahhh

still should be able to look in dscovery at the system

[zenith bolt]

after spending probably 6hrs looking for it total, i went looking for others for a break, even tried looking for a crashed version

[pale oyster]

has me thinking it might be a T1 ecomomy, they can be tough

[zenith bolt]

luckily, i have a crashed location of same 1 but blue/silver

The only 2 crashed exotics Ive ever found, yellow Guppy and Blue/Silver one

[pale oyster]

4000 hours, I've never discovered a crashed exotic

[zenith bolt]

I'll portal to system and check what it is, then I need bed, 2am here

[pale oyster]

it's up in your discovery list, also

@zenith bolt UK?

[zenith bolt]

Is crashed 1

Yes

[pale oyster]

so there are 2 time zones in UK? My UK elite squadron shows 3am there

[zenith bolt]

No, its not British Summer Time till tomorrow when clocks go forward an hour

[pale oyster]

ah

[zenith bolt]

Its a 3* system conflict 2

Advanced

[pale oyster]

if you need help grabbing it tomorrow, ping me, I have a mod that speeds up NPC ships 🤣

[zenith bolt]

I wanna post it, but don't want to if it still doesn't spawn here, the info I have is from just before waypoint came out, as I stopped playing when HG changed all my 1st n 2nd wave ship spawns I had found n thought whats the point. So I took a break

[pale oyster]

I love challenges

post the glyphs now, I will go look

[zenith bolt]

Forget the 2nd wave bit

I have seed already, just wanted to make sure it still spawned before posting it as its a nice looking ship. For all I know might be a different exotic now.

off to bed, let me know how u go

[pale oyster]

ok, I just arrived..... talk to you tomorrow

[compact maple]

Nooooo I need to know if you find it

[pale oyster]

I will post now if I do

[zenith bolt]

Might make a custom save tomorrow for ship finding and try your freighter method if you find it

[compact maple]

Me too but I think I'll start mine in Creative mode

[zenith bolt]

Want mod that just spawns 1 of each ship in pool, make things much easier

[compact maple]

I love the hunt

[pale oyster]

definitely a slow one

[compact maple]

There's nothing like seeing that big old wing circling around you just about to land. Before it flies away

[zenith bolt]

I noticed it was slow too. I dont get why some are fast, and some just stop

Didn't used to be slow

[pale oyster]

they spawn fast, but finding it is slow

it usually doesnt take this many pulses to find the exotic

I switched to trade depot 🙂

[zenith bolt]

Lol

[pale oyster]

@zenith bolt you havent named the rocks... big mistake buddy

[zenith bolt]

Lol, I was looking for ships

When I found at 1st was in station

I guess people ain't going to want to spend ages for it anyway, at least if they have editor, they can change with seed

[pale oyster]

I got to name some creatures, too

[compact maple]

What exactly can you do with seeds and a save editor?

[zenith bolt]

What cant you do

[pale oyster]

win

mine was to Scott

[compact maple]

I never googled it. No need. I will now

[zenith bolt]

You can change ship from 1 seed to another, so you put seed number in and ship changes to that seed, same with mt, freighters etc

[pale oyster]

I copy and paste freighter base from one to a new one

change my NPCs

[compact maple]

Whoaaa. You guys can make any ship you want

[compact maple]

I see, just change the game files

[zenith bolt]

Like expedition, gave me a rubbish hauler, so I put in the seed for a ball hauler I like

[compact maple]

Yes, I googled it. I understand now

[pale oyster]

but it isnt fun to give yourself everything, that is why I play pure PD games, for the accomplishment and reward of it

[zenith bolt]

Changing the save file, not the game files

[pale oyster]

doing editing is a differnt game on its own, for saves that are old

[compact maple]

Yes, I see the difference

Save file Game file

Wow. I had no idea you could change, control so much

[zenith bolt]

But you can alter other stuff like multitool damage

[compact maple]

Yes, with seeds from another?

[zenith bolt]

Like Gix said it can make it too easy or boring
