nms-expedition

[indigo falcon]

there is only one portal per planet... if you are given the option to insert glyphs this sounds like a portal

[balmy dirge]

i am in front of the portal

so this is not the place i must be?

[indigo falcon]

oh I think it is, if the game language is about "cross the threeshold into the boundary portal"

[balmy dirge]

mow i try with a signal booster as suggested by Lonely Gabriel..

[indigo falcon]

so i would try: multiplayer off. save-exit-reload. see if interacting with the portal then gives you the proper interaction (not prompting for glyphs)

if not, then I'm unsure about next steps

[balmy dirge]

ah ok now trying

[clear moat]

If I get multiple iron vultures, scrap them for parts and rebuild new one, would I be able to change it's colours? I'm not really a fan of this black one

[indigo falcon]

I believe so, though I don't know what stage in the process you need to apply colours

[balmy dirge]

reloaded, multiplayer off, it asasks glyphs like before...no way

[indigo falcon]

crap

[balmy dirge]

isn't a way to reload or edit the mission log ?

[proven ravine]

There's no way to sell or upgrade ships, is there?

[indigo falcon]

in the expedition? no

[indigo falcon]

I don't know that these missions can be reset. they don't have to be done from a specific world but now that you're partway through, I don't think you can just go elsewhere

[balmy dirge]

eh i think i must cancel the entire save and restar from scratch.....

[indigo falcon]

there's got to be a way

[balmy dirge]

....crap

[median sparrow]

Hmm...

If I made a copy of my MT, do I need to claim it to bring it back to my save?

[indigo falcon]

@remote thunder got any bright ideas here? player that went to the portal during the milestone with the mind ark, did not activate it, left the planet, got back to the portal (not sure how), now it just prompts for glyphs...

[indigo falcon]

no, this isi a copy, your original save still has it. the resources and tech however are gone from the main save until you transfer them back

[median sparrow]

I really don't want to do the derelict.

[cerulean thorn]

Huh, I found a "lost green planet"

Never saw one of those before

[indigo falcon]

starter system and rend 1 systems have derelicts that aren't bad. no nests

[cerulean thorn]

It's kinda like a paradise planet, no sentinels no storms, but coincidentally it's in a green system (emeril)

[median sparrow]

They're just... boring.

[indigo falcon]

well you only need to get the crew manifest-captain log - tech/nanites, no other salvage and no other rooms but those on the way to the terminals

if you get a good layout you can be in and out in < 5 minutes

[median sparrow]

Just let me sprint.

[remote thunder]

started from scratch or from existing save?

[indigo falcon]

good question. @balmy dirge ?

[balmy dirge]

new save

[indigo falcon]

(this might have been answered but I am fading somewhat, it's late here. mostly just have an eye on the game fest and thinking about sleep sometime soon)

[median sparrow]

Get me out off this rollercoaster

Right now.

[ashen shore]

Man I hope they update freighters in the future so I can give each ship I own their own parking spot

Oop wrong channel

[remote thunder]

hi; the milestone is locked to that portal? iow, the milestone/mission HUD marker is "on" that specific portal? cc @indigo falcon

(let's try and roll with your idea earlier 🙂 - out of range)

to trigger the out of range state <#bot-spam message>, to hopefully be able to restart that mission stage to another location

space anomaly featured bases are available, Ealpha Base and Wizards Rest are both in Euclid; try teleporting to one or both of those

[indigo falcon]

the other end of the portal is fixed. but the planet with the portal can differ. what happens when it's interrupted like this, no idea...

[remote thunder]

i'd suggest trying it

not much to lose right

[indigo falcon]

just save the coordinates of the current portal or even dropa base computer... just i ncase

[ashen shore]

This worm planet is kinda fun. The ambience is terrifying. I kinda wanna build a base here.

Well. .lately empty but where I spawned there were.all these worms. I gotta find it again.

[glass stump]

There are PLENTY of worm worlds in this expedition.

[median sparrow]

Not enough worms.

[ashen shore]

I can't scan the dang worm for whatever reason

[faint mesa]

The giant one is impossible

[indigo falcon]

no one scans the Shai Hulud.

smh

[median sparrow]

That's... different...

[remote thunder]

yeah, saw that reported a few times after Adrift

[ashen shore]

Can I un-condence carbon?

[remote thunder]

yes, cond carbon refines to carbon

[ashen shore]

Awesome ty

[median sparrow]

It's 2024.

Why does this game still nag me to use "key" items?

The egg is FAR less important than my expedition.

[remote thunder]

i didn't claim that one till i was done

@balmy dirge let us know if you need some more guidance yeah? anytime

[median sparrow]

Time to finish this expedition!

[remote thunder]

almost there! 🙂

[median sparrow]

I will say.

Every time HG Puts an expedition on a "mountain" type planet.

I die on the inside.

[remote thunder]

heh yeah, they can definitely be against us sometimes 😄

[median sparrow]

Just... uncalled for.

Not even in the same book as "close" 😦

[remote thunder]

try setting a visor custom waypoint, then flying off slowly in that direction, and finding another landing spot in the next mountain

not fully accurate, but it has helped me sometimes

[median sparrow]

That's usually what I do but it forces me to start from there designated point.

Which is honestly a slap in the fac.e

I can see how that table talk went...

Okay, get me off this planet!

[sonic shale]

me, when I dug through the dang mountain trying to find the rendezvous only to find out it was on top of the mountain and you can't edit the terrain anywhere near the rendezvous

so i had to find my way out of my OWN MAZE

[median sparrow]

Love that.

The sentinels must have loved me completing the expedition too.

Immediately attacked me as I left the planet.

[ashen shore]

I should have gotten nanites before starting this. I want my multi tool grr.

Even the anomaly is empty. That's wild.

[median sparrow]

Don't worry.

The worm planets have loads of things that refine into Nanites.

[lusty slate]

Okay, I think 3x of each Iron Vulture part is good. I'll stop copying and do something else now.

[remote thunder]

zoology, refining vile spawn/fleshy rope that drops from baby worms

a planet with 4 fauna yields an additional nanite reward of 1000 nanites

[wanton raft]

The starting planet among others is a nanite fest. With the low gravity, it's really easy to kill hungering tendrils while staying out of reach of the monsters. Each drop from those tendrils is worth 50 nanites so each one is worth 100-150 nanites for an easy 500+ nanites per group.

[ashen shore]

I should head back there.

[median sparrow]

There's lots on the way.

[lusty slate]

Confirmed: you can take the derelict crew manifest and captain's log from Adrift to main and turn them in like normal.

[median sparrow]

Oh good.

I dropped them in my box just in case lol.

[wanton raft]

I forgot what those were worth.

[lusty slate]

Yup. When you retrieve the items on main, the Lost in Space mission re-triggers and let's you sell them.

[median sparrow]

Perfect.

Makes that derelict slog a little worth it.

[lusty slate]

The derelict was the hardest part of Adrift for me. Had three robot security bots jump me at once. Fun fun.

[median sparrow]

Mine was just... slow.

I never liked Derelicts.

[lusty slate]

I had half the health on Adrift than I do on main. So it was a lot of hiding in corners and sniping.

[wanton raft]

The derelict in the first system is a complete cake walk to the point of being boring.

[median sparrow]

Yeah. Think I had like 4 points.

I didn't know the security drones even existed.

First time I've ever seen them.

Is it safe to assume I can't break down the iron vulture?

[lusty slate]

You can.

[heady pilot]

I wouldn't say it's hard but it is the most dangerous. Especially in this expedition where there is otherwise very little danger. But on a new character without any upgrades, it can be rough and you can find yourself dead faster than you can blink and lose all suit inventory too. That thing almost caught me off-guard, I forgot how fragile and flmsy new characters without upgrades are.

[lusty slate]

Yeah, first time I regretted not copying my combat MT over.

[wanton raft]

Yes, you do need a few preparations, but it's far less dangerous than other derelicts I've seen in the past. For one thing, it had no bugs.

[heady pilot]

Well, how dangerous this derelict is also varies from player to player depending on what system each player does it in...it may not have had bugs for you but it might have had bugs for others. The derelict differs from system to system.

[remote thunder]

(there's 1+n unique interior DF layouts per system, where n is the nr of moons in the system)

[wanton raft]

Right. That's why I speciied that I was talking about the derelict in the first system.

[median sparrow]

I Yolo'd it with the MT they gave us.

[lusty slate]

I used the starter system derelict. No bugs, but the bots loved to jump scare me. Had to go into defensive sniper mode.

[wanton raft]

I brought my Atlas staff to do the derelict, so that made it mch easier.

[heady pilot]

Did you? I still don't see you mentioning that. But either way, most players are unlikely to do it in the first system. Most players most likely do it in whatever system they're in when they come across the milestone and have the device needed to do it.

[lusty slate]

I have a combat alien MT with a heavily modded up pulse splitter. But nope, dumb me was "Eh, I don't need it. The exped MT will be fine".

[heady pilot]

I did the same, brought in the fully upgraded Atlas Scepter from my main save...but almost died to eyebots floating in and out of the ceiling and taking pot shots at me and every time I tried to shoot them my shots would hit nothing but ceiling. Had to learn to time it to hit them as they'd float back down into the room from the ceiling...which was a surprisingly small time window as they would float down just enough to take a shot at me and then back up.

[lusty slate]

Yup. Exactly. Every time I entered a new room, I hung in the doorway and scouted for them.

It walked in a few steps, shot at it when it flew down, then backed into the corner of the doorway. Rinse, repeat until they were all dead.

[iron tendon]

Beginner questions: How come I can't see the extra cargo that I bought into the expedition? And where do I go to exit the expedition without ending it

[lusty slate]

The items you send over can't be claimed until you reach the Anomaly in the expedition.

[heady pilot]

The cargo you bring into the expedition can only be obtained from the expedition terminal in the anomaly...you have to reach the Anomaly in the expedition.

[lusty slate]

Then you retrieve them from the same terminal you put them in.

[wanton frigate]

So.. having never done a derelict on my main game, through a combination of ignorance and cowardice, what do I need to know?

[dusty elm]

I 'tried' to do the derelick freighter milestone and not sure what happened. When I was shooting at the creatures that were coming after me, the game crashed, game shut down, had to log back into the game. When I got back in, it rolled back to before I entered the freighter. Has this happened to anyone else in this expedition?

[heady pilot]

One of the biggest factors is the environmental hazard...it is permanently cold and your hazard protection will drain quite fast but there are these waist high blue pillars that you can interact with...they are heaters. Interacting with them will turn one one and staying close to one will refill your hazard protection...there are usually multiple of these in each room.

[lusty slate]

Okay. Cleared all my expedition subspace bag goodies and put them away. Copied/salvaged 3x each Vulture part + claimed the fresh QS one.

Now I can catch up on Nexus missions lol

[lusty slate]

Game doesn't save when you're in the derelicts. It tells you this.

[dusty elm]

So was this considered a game crash?

[heady pilot]

Beyond the environmental hazard there are multiple enemies you can encounter. Small floating eyebots...if you see them keep your distance, take cover around a corner or something and shot them from afar. If not careful they can kill you quite fast. You might also see these orange lights from the ceiling waving from side to side, stay out of those lights...those are turret sensors and you don't want to buy what they are selling. Lastly there are these rooms filled with organic growth...looks green and gross...the dangerous bits are these sacks sitting in the middle of the room connected to both the ceiling and the floor. They only pop if you move fast...so move very slowly and if they start pulsing a bit fast just stay still until they calm down...if they pop you'll be swarmed by small insect like creatures...also very dangerous.

[lusty slate]

Crash or death, you'll have to restart the derelict.

When you exit your ship on the derelict landing pad, it tells you that saving in derelicts is disabled.

[dusty elm]

Good thing was, I didn't lose the scanner!!

[heady pilot]

Oh and one more thing, to complete the milestone for the derelict you need to interact with all the big terminals, there are 3, but for one you will need security credentials to complete it, those can be randomly found in blue datapads laying around on desks and stuff so make sure you interact with every blue datapad until you get the credentials...if you miss them you'll have to go back and find them and then go to the terminal that needs them.

[remote thunder]

follow the white arrows above the doors to stay on the DF's "main path", that should be enough to get you secure creds and the three rooms without needing to explore any optional rooms (purple arrow)

[wanton frigate]

Gentle folk and scholars all, thanks

[vernal aurora]

Where is R5? I’ve flown around the peaks and valleys and always 500u away

[royal jetty]

How can i tell if a planet has robotic life?

[heady pilot]

Rendezvous 5 is actually wedged in a weird spot half way down one of the peaks...there's this flat area that sticks out to the side and there is a crashed shuttle there.

[heady pilot]

The milstone will tell you if there is robotic life in the system you are in by mentioning it's detected on a nearby planet. Then land on every moon and planet until the milestone tells you that the planet you are on has robotic life. Also planets with robotic creatures always have only 2 creatures to discover so look are your discovery screen for the planet you are on and if it says there are 2 creatures to discover they are robotic. If it says 1 or more than 2 then they are not robotic.

[vernal aurora]

Oh gosh. Thanks!

[royal jetty]

ok thanks

[remote thunder]

(tbf, imo, 500u away is close enough to land and start a on foot search)

[loud surge]

What's the Lost?

[heady pilot]

Yeah but rendezvous 5 planet is a pain to navigate because of the extreme terrain...especially if you land down in a valley. The infinite jetpack up the side of a cliff doesn't work quite right either as I typically tend to just make small jumps up the side of the hill and each drains jetpack and often can find yourself sliding back down.

[loud surge]

It's a crashed ship

I went to a player base and jumped down the massive hill

[remote thunder]

names are proc gen

[heady pilot]

Yes. Crashed shuttle.

[loud surge]

Ye

[remote thunder]

i'll do it when i've wasted a little time trying to fly around and photo mode wasn't helping; at least to get more accurate bearings 🙂

[loud surge]

Idk how to get more nanites

:(

[remote thunder]

zoology, refining stuff like rad shards, fleshy rope and vile spawn

[loud surge]

Refining those gives nanits?

[remote thunder]

nr of species on planet * 250

[remote thunder]

yep

[loud surge]

Crapppppp

I got rid of 11 spine things

[remote thunder]

plenty of worms around

[loud surge]

💀

[remote thunder]

any rdv planet

if you get lucky might even find a burrow next to a building, just stand on top of the building lol

[loud surge]

7 shards gives me 300

Shouldn't be too much more after that

[heady pilot]

The best method to get a few thousands is by scanning all creatures on a planet and then clicking the complete fauna scans button...this pays 250 nanites times the number of creatures on that planet. So completing a planet that only had 1 creature pays 250 while a planet with 9 would pay 2,250. Don't bother with planets that have underground creatures...those are more trouble than they are worth. Also be mindful of nocturnal, diurnal, and creatures that only spawn in the north/south.

[heady pilot]

If you are not averse to some danger then worm nests...killing a worm will automatically give you an item that refines into nanites and drops some things on the ground that also refine into nanites. so clearing out a few nests is quite profitable.

[remote thunder]

i tend to do it on 4-6, maybe 7-8 fauna planets

10min or so and i'm usually done, if it starts getting longer than that i sometimes throw in the towel when i need to move on

[loud surge]

I deleted mine

Waypoints are so tedious...

[low light]

Larval cores, almost every building I've come across is loaded with them

Stack of ten gives 500

[loud surge]

Laval cores? I sold those too 💀

[low light]

Find some more lol, they're all over in the expedition

[loud surge]

...am I free to sell the artefacts?

[royal jetty]

So I need emiril drive to get to the robot planet. But to get it I need to go to a planet theat needs said drive

[low light]

Cadmium to make Emeril drive

[loud surge]

What? Cadmium Drive -> Emeril Drive -> Indium Drive

Cadmium Drive = 250 chromatic metal

[low light]

I took an indium drive with me, most useful thing I brought

[loud surge]

I went fresh

[heady pilot]

Which artifact? I only remember two...the wormskin and the book. Those are only cool bits of lore...I guess you can sell them but they are not really worth anything. I transferred the book to my main save and placed it in storage for the lore value of it.

[loud surge]

The fossils

[low light]

I sold mine

[heady pilot]

Oh yeah...can't do anything else with them except sell.

[loud surge]

Phew

[royal jetty]

Now that I can't buy cheap tech to scrap how do get wiring loom?

yes I know I can scrap what the game gives me but it will run out

[heady pilot]

You only need wiring loom for the 3 drives, and you only need to keep the Indium drive at the end. So you can scrap enough to make the Cadmium drive, then when you can craft the Emeril you can destroy the Cadmium drive to get some back and scrap a few more tech to have enough, and lastly when you can craft the Indium drive you can scrap the emeril drive and a few more tech. It should be doable without too many issues. If you are playing from a main save you can also pay nanites to import a ship with Indium drive already installed.

[royal jetty]

ahh so that how the got nice ships so quick

how do I import a ship?

[heady pilot]

From the expedition terminal on the anomaly but it is only available if you started the expedition from that same terminal on a pre-existing save.

[royal jetty]

I thought you had to start it from a pre save?

[heady pilot]

Yes. You have to have started the expedition from the expedition terminal on the anomaly while playing on a save that was created before starting this expedition to be able to import things.

If you created a brand new save in an empty save slot for this expedition then you cannot import things into it.

[royal jetty]

I did it from my old save

[cedar wind]

So... someone killed me just as I got off the first planet and now I cannot find the deuterium to fix my ship nor can I find tritium... How do I get deuterium? 😛

[tired sorrel]

I had to use the Personal Refiner Mk 2 that they give you as a reward for a previous milestone to make Deuterium.

[cedar wind]

Oh yeah I would love to but I can't get tritium

[tired sorrel]

You don't need Tritium

[heady pilot]

Then you can import things.

[hollow compass]

di-hydrogen + silicate powder homie

[lusty slate]

Some refiner recipes for Adrift are modified, btw.

[heady pilot]

Refine di-hydrogen and silicate powder together.

[cedar wind]

OH I thought it was only di-hydrogen + tritium!

Gahhh

Thank you all

[hollow compass]

I got stuck for a minute too on that in the very beginning

[lusty slate]

Not in Adrift.

[heady pilot]

This one wasn't just modified for adrift but added to the base game too...it is now just permanently in the game. Useful to remember for the future in case future expeditions require deuterium.

[cedar wind]

Saviors, all of you. Thank you.

Was thinking I just wouldn't play this one lol

[loud surge]

I finished!

6:29

[old fox]

Do I use these to get my starship and tool from the expedition without ending it?

[loud surge]

[old fox]

nvmd found it

[loud surge]

I kinda wish the expedition had a conclusion :(

[old fox]

Same

but cie le vies

[dusty hedge]

...that's disappointing. I just realized doing the expedition reset all my planetary records and such.

Seems my discoveries and scans are okay, but I'll have to make new discoveries for the records I guess, or just go back and try and recall some of them

Oh no, it did delete the scans too.. sigh

[cedar wind]

Even if you leave the expedition?

[dusty hedge]

I'm done with the expedition, I finished it last night

And from a Google search it seems like I'm not the only one this happens to

Ah well

Oh, apparently the scans part has nothing to do with that

It's the game forgetting older stuff, so you gotta rescan, but it still remembers you found it

The records does seem to be caused by the expedition though

anyone else have their ship not upgrade their class after clicking the mission that does that?

[spring stirrup]

I believe I have at least once

[low light]

We can only copy one ship on the way back right?

[low jackal]

#nms-expedition message

[low light]

I mean going back for something that isn't iron vulture

[brave knot]

So if I accidentally scrapped the hypnotic eye... What do? Lmao

[heady pilot]

Is your active ship already S class because it was imported from main save? The class upgrade can only work on your active ship so if your active ship is S, you need to swap to something that isn't S before claiming the reward.

[calm yoke]

Nope, was an A class found during the expedition

[heady pilot]

Sounds like a bug to me.

buy one at the space statio, all the trade terminals have it

[brave knot]

Wooo mini freak out avoided. Thank you

[still bramble]

Expedition was excellent, really enjoyed myself on this one! Also some good scare moments at times! Got to love space horror!

[umbral forum]

Looking for a good station to build my new Hauler now.

[golden dagger]

Whats the fastest way to find 13 way points? Using a signal booster seems slow

[indigo falcon]

don't use that, it costs surge batteries and there's no need. just fly low and slow and use ship scanner on any of the planets that has some fauna and not giant mountains, look for the unknown building icon. it will cost you launch fuel, but save you time

@golden dagger ^^

[golden dagger]

Ok thanks once again

[indigo falcon]

you bet

[low light]

Are the freighter logs pretty much useless during expedition?

[indigo falcon]

the snippets from tablets or...?

[low light]

The ones you take out

[indigo falcon]

the captain's log and such you can sell later it seems, post-expedition, ,at least a player has reported this. the logs you see at terminals don't have special lore, just the standard stuff; the snippets, same but you do want the one security cred

[low light]

Not worth taking back imo

[indigo falcon]

can't sell them for tainted metal in the expd for obvious reasons, if they have a value in units you could sell them at a trade terminal

[low light]

646 each in the expedition lol

[indigo falcon]

ic

[low light]

Oof, yeah I forgot about the tainted metal

Might keep after all

[indigo falcon]

I know one person is thinking of buying up emergency broadcast receivers because they are a lot cheaper in the expd, and shipping those back (assuming they can be shipped back over)

[low light]

Thought about that too, strapped for space because I'm saving all the inventory upgrades to see if I can take those

[indigo falcon]

gotcha

[low light]

14 ship slots going back hopefully 🫦

[indigo falcon]

ooooooh nce

[golden dagger]

for Dereliction do i just need to reach the end?

nvm it says fully explore

[indigo falcon]

you need to visit the three terminals and get: crew manifest, captain's log, bulkhead/nanites/whatever. that's all

[frosty wing]

so, are you supposed to go through the black hole for amidst the stars? the log told me to go back to the previous system, so i restarted with local structures, now i have to go back to the anomoly but the mind arc doesnt work anymore, tried recrafting another but still doesnt work

just remembered restore point, one sec

[indigo falcon]

you're supposed to go through the portal when it directs you

[frosty wing]

portal not blackhole above the plent that the coords led me directly to?

well crap - my earliest restore point doesnt work

i am ~166k lightyears away from the mission objective

[indigo falcon]

you should not be going through a black hole, no

[frosty wing]

any other way to restore game from other locations

[indigo falcon]

the coords should have led you to a portal on a planet; when you activated it you would have been told to step through.

[frosty wing]

the restore point and save point are no go

[indigo falcon]

and restarting the mission does not work?

[frosty wing]

yeah the coords led me to a planet, and just as i reached it a black hole appeared

[indigo falcon]

ah heck

[frosty wing]

restart missions has locked the mind arc from working

[indigo falcon]

what instructions do you have in the log?

[frosty wing]

mission wont progress until mind arc has worked

seek answers, summon the space anomoly

there atm

(forgot to mention i did not have access to the previous space station [didnt go there])

[indigo falcon]

and now that you are there, anything different in the log or the game hint in lower right?

[frosty wing]

(which is why i restarted from narby structures

[indigo falcon]

any icon in the hud to follow ?

[frosty wing]

bring arc to prime terminal

[indigo falcon]

and when you do.... what happens exactly?

[frosty wing]

prime terminal says popluation empty or such

[indigo falcon]

(oh also: you have mp off or on?)

population empty is ok.... but after that something else should happen

you should get given coordinates iirc

[frosty wing]

nothing, missions stays on bring mind arc to prime terminal

[indigo falcon]

dang

[frosty wing]

multiplayer disabled

[indigo falcon]

it's now too late to try to get back to the original system; you could do other milestones (just get back to r2 system space station and keep on from there) but that doesn't fix this problem

[frosty wing]

how to get back to r2 system? i havent been using space stations (i got 3 i think) could go back to r1/starting station?

[indigo falcon]

go back to any one of them in your list, the system names are pinned in here so you can check

[frosty wing]

can i... reset my progress? i have transferred a lot of stuff will they be lost?

[indigo falcon]

I don't know of a way to do that in the expedition, sadly

[frosty wing]

stupid concept

hmmm

[indigo falcon]

so first off I would report this as a bug

!hg

[unkempt kraken]

You can submit bug reports, suggestions or feedback to Hello Games here: https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

[frosty wing]

did that for the toxic planet one for a earlier expedition

[indigo falcon]

and second, I would continue on for now (you could try resetting w/local structures again once back in the expd area, though I doubt it will make a difference)

[frosty wing]

when dealing with computer glitches, it could work

done

now for the earlier station journey

[indigo falcon]

good luck!

[frosty wing]

nope

[golden dagger]

To get the Iron vulture multiple times on your save you just Make the ship your main ship before completing the expedition, the go into your main save and pay nanites to copy it correct?

[indigo falcon]

yes but see the guide here #nms-expedition message

[jagged sedge]

Call me nutty, but one Vulture is enough for me

[golden dagger]

yeah i wanna make one since i dont like the back of it

[indigo falcon]

note the new ship you build may not hover, it will just have the visuals

[golden dagger]

yeah the wings are needed for it to hover

thats what ive heard anyway

[jagged sedge]

Hover?

[golden dagger]

yes hover in atmosphere

like sentinel ships

[jagged sedge]

Oh, ok

[neat latch]

Wait a minute, what is this hover business?

[indigo falcon]

the iron vulture. you know, the newfangled hauler

[neat latch]

This contradicts friend entity apergos’ comment.

[indigo falcon]

it, like sentinel ships, can hover.

[neat latch]

Oh hello!? I didn’t know that 😮

[jagged sedge]

[mind blown]

[indigo falcon]

one of the big selling points!

[neat latch]

What is HG doing with these new ships? Ever since the interceptors they’ve released two uniques that can hover. Interesting.

[jagged sedge]

The hover ability is quite liked among us iterations

[neat latch]

But I guess we cannot simply slap the wings to any hauler and expect it to hover, correct?

[neat latch]

Indeed, I love the hovering.

[indigo falcon]

I don't think you can, best to have some testing on it but I have seen reports to that effect (reuse all parts, resulting ship won't hover)

so starborn runner is the other one that hovers? I have that but never put it to use

[neat latch]

I believe the hovering is a part of the code for that ship.

[indigo falcon]

makes sense

[neat latch]

Indeed, it was supposed to hover when near ground (as mentioned in the release notes) but it never did, only when it was parked. They dropped a quickfix to fix that quickly, making it the first and only unique exotic that could hover.

[indigo falcon]

nice! I claimed it on a save today (trying to clean up outstanding quicksilver stuff), nice look, didn't jump in though. just tped home

[neat latch]

Have you seen mu pic of the runner?

A beauty shot of sorts. I’ll share in #no-mans-sky channel.

[jagged sedge]

The hover feature helps me most when I need some extra time to get landing clearance at trading posts

[indigo falcon]

don't think so, please show!

today I did the weekend mission on two saves and bonked into buildings on both 😕 why they let me have a pilot license I will never know

[jagged sedge]

"Any landing you can walk away from - is a good one"

[indigo falcon]

ship looked fine after. not too sure about the building 😛

[jagged sedge]

Glad you made it out unscathed

[indigo falcon]

sturdy traveller is sturdy

[foggy steppe]

Haven’t been on in awhile. Roughly a year. Heard there was a way to do expeditions with my main save

[jagged sedge]

You can, the terminal can be found in the space anomaly, to the left of the QS dude

[neat latch]

Pinged you in sky channel

[indigo falcon]

ty

huh, makes me want to take another close look at it (later, done with in game for today I think)

[royal jetty]

I started the expedition on a current save. Can I go back and bring over more items to expedition toon?

[meager scroll]

No, you can only bring provisions before you start the expedition

And you can get items back after you complete it

[royal jetty]

ok thx

[turbid bridge]

Hi, is it possible to sell modules (for nanites) during the current expedition?

[indigo falcon]

no.

#nms-expedition message

that doesn't spell it out but it should give you a general idea of what's up

[turbid bridge]

ok, thanks for info and for the link

[royal jetty]

Should I make a base and grind out all that or no reall need?

[indigo falcon]

grind out which, sorry?

[rare mulch]

Where to find robotic life forms

[indigo falcon]

see the pins in this channel: #nms-expedition message for a guide on how; if you want to go to systems others have found, check the pins in here for specific systems players have documented @rare mulch

[royal jetty]

nms portal glyphs makeing a unite nanite farm

[indigo falcon]

if you want to do something like that for the benefit of other players, sure, but you don't need to do it to finish the expedition by any means

and we don't get portal glyphs during the expd

[foggy steppe]

What should I start out with cargo wise to get a good start to the expedition

[indigo falcon]

well you might look at the milestones in here #nms-expedition message and then also read the general tips #nms-expedition message and see what tech seems helpful

(your list likely will differ from someone else's)

[royal jetty]

can I pick up minotaur geobay?

can I not buy upgrades for Exocraft

[trail iron]

the only vendors that work in the expedition are the building station and the synthesis blueprints station on the anomaly. There are no NPCs of any sort.

Thus no, there's no way to buy those upgrades - unless you cheat and bring the utopia stations with you. But very few people have access to those (and i suspect they will be banned int he future)

[rare mulch]

I think the expedition is bugged

Can't move off of signs of nowhere

It's stuck on 9

[royal jetty]

any tip to find ancient ruins?

[lyric roost]

Use the signal booster

[indigo falcon]

you can complete this by low flying on any regular planet (not a dead/airless world) and using the ship scanner to look for the unknown building icon... probably the most efficient way if you haven't come across enough waypoints organically as you explore

[rare mulch]

The amount of RSS I wasted I swear I got so mad I closed the game

But thanks I'll do that some other time

[indigo falcon]

if you pin the mission, it should tell you to place the signal booster and use it. in these cases, always choose the first option the signal booster gives (the second "nearby structures" is a generic option that is always present and will not help you). if you run out of surge batteries, which you should have gotten from destroying 40 asteroids, you can craft more, you should have gotten the blueprint from another milestone

[rotund copper]

Phases aren’t as hard as I thought they would be tbh

I’ve just been doing an overall completing them out of order

[indigo falcon]

yes, most (but not all) tasks can be done in the order that's convenient for you.

[rotund copper]

Im just reading them and figuring out which ones I can do on the way to the next objective

[indigo falcon]

this is the way

[rotund copper]

Phase 3 gives the iron vulture right?

[low light]

Bring an indium drive

[indigo falcon]

no, this is an end of expedition reward, you need to have done all milestones in all phases for that.

[rotund copper]

Same for the frigate I would assume?

[indigo falcon]

no, the frigate is a reward for completing all phase 4 milestones 😄

[rotund copper]

Ah Ty

[rotund copper]

It’s like haunted right?

K thx

[indigo falcon]

there's a post pinned in here with all milestones/phases and rewards which you might find useful

[frosty wing]

i destroyed the mind arc again and this time ive been able to pin the crafting recipe (i already had the eye before destroying it last time)

[thorny saffron]

hello guys
i'm pretty new in NMS but i have some experience hahaha
i've already completed the main story btw
i want to do the expedition, but i'm kinda lost...
i have some questions, so if someone can come into my direct to help me i'd be grateful

[indigo falcon]

your best bet for that is #nms-lfg-or-trades although it can be a very slow channel. but if there are questions we can answer, maybe that can help

[thorny saffron]

thanks dude

[frosty wing]

...aaaaaanndddd it still didnt work

[indigo falcon]

what happened when you went back to the prime terminal with it?

[frosty wing]

same already downloaded popluation message, didnt change at all

i found out later tonight that i was running mods and those mods were out of date (pre-adrift)

i removed them all (and have them set up with their updated files)

[indigo falcon]

oh ouch... yes, old mods can impact your game in all kinds of ways

[frosty wing]

is there a way to restart with nearby locations for a mission that wont give me that option/a way to trigger it?

[indigo falcon]

the usual way is to get a long distance (> 4k ly) away and reset in the log. I don't know of another method

[frosty wing]

i didnt know about that - ill try it with a deleted mind arc

[rotund copper]

Is the iron vulture a hauler?

[frosty wing]

so i cant get 4kly away

hyperdrive only goes 99ly at a time

[deft lichen]

how many kinds of parts can you get from the iron vulture

[indigo falcon]

a black hole is the way for this, ,or hitch a ride with someone who has brought in a ship with full upgrades and can get a good distance away

[heady pilot]

How many do you think? It is one single model, how many parts does any other craftable ship have?

[deft lichen]

i've never scrapped a ship for parts before

super cool and kind response

[remote thunder]

featured base(s)

[indigo falcon]

ooohhh good point, one hop and done (go to anomaly, check featured bases, odds are any one of them will be well outside of the expd area)

[remote thunder]

aye

[indigo falcon]

plus no tech damage as you might get from black holes

[remote thunder]

none currently, they patched that out afaik/ime/from other player reports

[indigo falcon]

oh did they patch it out completely? not gonna complain!

[remote thunder]

and if the first featured doesn't do it, resummon anomaly and teleport to another featured

[heady pilot]

I mean, it takes two minutes to find out...go to any station and interact with the ship crafter. Even without any parts you can look at the basics of it...see what it asks you to put in.

[deft lichen]

yeah thanks i never thought about figuring it out for myself :)

[low light]

It's okay to ask questions

I ask questions, I answer questions, no big deal

[neat latch]

Let's try to be reasonable and remember that others might not know about the game as much as you do. If you don't a helpful response to a question I suggest not replying to a question. We want to help others first and foremost @heady pilot, there's always the option to let someone else answer instead of replying with the tone of mockery. Respect the rules and try to remain civil.

[heady pilot]

I have provided a helpful response. Can't craft ships without using the crafter and it's incredibly fast and easy to look at. What it requires is what you can get.

[neat latch]

Question: how many kinds of parts can you get from the iron vulture

Answer: Three; Cockpit, Wings, Engine.

[heady pilot]

In situations where the answer is incredibly fast and easy to get I like to promote a little bit of self reliance. That's not a bad thing. It's hardly like I said anything bad or asked someone to figure out an advanced game mechanic.

[indigo falcon]

not trying to pile on here. but the player didn't find the response helpful, and that's important. butting back out now.

[heady pilot]

I'm not trying to be a jerk and that was never my intention, but it should not be unhelpful or offensive to just look in a coomon and easy to access place.

It would also provide a little bit of information that would be necessary before crafting ships.

[neat latch]

The question in question wasn't about crafting ships, Spirit. It was "how many kinds of parts can you get from iron vulture"
The answer is very simple and rather informative too. Three parts (name of parts). That's basically it.

Let's not push this any further as it's neither the topic of the channel nor the intended channel for discussion. If you have an issue with moderation actions you may always appeal to the Admins using the #contact-us form.

[ashen shore]

You know the items you bring with you to the expedition
Do you have to put them back in the terminus to get them back to the primary save or do you not have to worry about them?

[indigo falcon]

you have truly transferred them to the expd save, rather than copying them; to get them back you must stash them on the expd side for pickup again

[ashen shore]

Okie

[indigo falcon]

(however if you copied a ship/mt, these are copies only)

[coral steppe]

Does this expedition take a while?

[heady pilot]

If you want them back on your main save then yes, at the end of the expedition you should put them back in the expedition terminal before closing the expedition completely.

[ashen shore]

It took me 3 days to get everything done

[coral steppe]

oh alr

[ashen shore]

You shouldn't worry tho, it's out for 7 weeks

[heady pilot]

About 5 weeks left now but yeah, loads of time left.

[ashen shore]

I like the expeditions running for longer now

I've missed one or two BC I just wasn't able to be there for them

[indigo falcon]

they used to have about a 6 week run time, the extended period is good

[wanton frigate]

Depends on whether you're aiming for speed or not. Some say 4hrs. I've been at it since the Switch patch dropped, haven't even reached rendezvous 1 yet. But I've ticked a whole bunch of phase 2 -5 tasks off on my merry way.
I think they build an extra week in now to compensate us switch players for the wait for the patch to drop

[heady pilot]

I mean first runs of expeditions have always been at least five weeks...this is not that much more or anything. If you are thinking of the redux expeditions those will absolutely still be 1 week, maybe tow at most. @ashen shore

[ashen shore]

Oh yeah I did miss a lot of the redux ones

I think it was Singularity I missed

[heady pilot]

Those are not likely to get any longer.

[ashen shore]

I'm happy the main ones are running for longer tho

I got 20m units and 9500 nanites from this expedition

[heady pilot]

I think it's definitely doable in four hours but first time without any guide or information beforehand it's probably a bit longer. Should still be under 10 hours for most people if they don't get too derailed with other activities like base building and so on.

[wanton frigate]

Derailed? You mean like if you were on your way to the Comms array and this little waddling lizard toddler scoots past you, and you spend 37 minutes trying to find him again after he escaped while you were crafting pellets to tame him with?
In fairness I think NMS generally is just Derailed - The Game. Everything you do is something that distracted you in the middle of the last thing you were doing.

[ashen shore]

Lmao I agree

[indigo falcon]

mumble mumble it's-not-the-destination-but-the-journey

[ashen shore]

The real expedition was the grah's we made along the way

How do you put the stealth paint on your ship?

[indigo falcon]

dunno, haven't tried yet! I mean it is for ships you construct, I believe, applied at the time

you can't post-apply it

[ashen shore]

Oh oki

[heady pilot]

It is only available for fighters and haulers, not for explorers for somereason. In the ship crafter above the color selection where you can pick between matted and metallic there are two more options...stealth and metal plating.

[reef grove]

Poor explorers 😦

They really are the worst ship class by far in the late game, but they're really cute!

[heady pilot]

I imagine the reason explorers don't get the stealth and metal plating is because Hello Games plan to give them other additional paints in the future. The same way as fighters now benefitted from the these new colors I suspect explorers will benefit from others in the future. We know that Hello Games are working to implement craftable shuttles and solar ships so my guess is a future expedition will bring a unique solar ship and paints that will also benefit the explorers.

[reef grove]

Ooh, they are planning to expand the craftable ships? That's very compelling

I was really bummed that solars weren't craftable

[indigo falcon]

I will spend a chunk of time with craftable shuttles because they deserve some love 😛

[pearl nacelle]

Do I actually have to visit a blue star to find synthetic creatures or will any exotic world do?

[heady pilot]

I mean the official NMS website post that showed the Omega update contained a gif showing a shuttle screen in the ship crafter and an additional image with shuttle parts on it. Then the post for the Adrift update shows a ship crafter screen for solar ships. So it's probably a safe bet to say those are coming in the future.

[indigo falcon]

uncharted systems. there's a pin in here with a step by step easy guide if you like

[reef grove]

Also the expedition reward hauler had ludicrously good stats for a hauler

[pearl nacelle]

So even a yellow will do so long as it's uncharted?

[indigo falcon]

yellow uncharted is not a thing.

[pearl nacelle]

Oh

I could've sworn I found one of those

K I'll just make a cadmium drive then lol

[indigo falcon]

(that'll teach you to swear 😛 )

[heady pilot]

Uncharted systems are probably more important than strictly blue though I have had luck with uncharted blue.

[reef grove]

If you make it your active mission it will just show you the closest system in the warp map screen

[heady pilot]

No, not really. Above average stats but not great. core damage goes up to around 144, Iron Vulture had 110, core shields can go up to around 312, Iron Vulture has round 301. Hyperdrive bonus goes up to 58% for haulers, Iron Vulture had around 50%. It's ok, you can do much worse. But I will be looking for better from a crafted one.

[reef grove]

You just have to change the routing from free explore to current mission

[manic tulip]

is there any specific criteria for completing "its alive" challenge other than looking on planets around blue stars?

[indigo falcon]

there's a guide in here pinned for that, have a look

[reef grove]

The guide doesn't say "just make it your active missing, go to warp screen, and follow 'current mission' routing directly to nearest system with artificial life forms in it"

[heady pilot]

The milestone will tell you if there is robotic fauna as soon as you enter a system by saying it is detected on a nearby planet. Just warp to uncharted blue systems until your milestone says that and then land on every planet or moon until milestone says it has robotic life.

[indigo falcon]

no. that can mean multiple hops away, and it will require the indium drive. neither are necessary

[manic tulip]

thanks

[reef grove]

That worked for me two systems in a row, and then it was finished. But I think that's a pretty good indicator that the game knows where to go.

[lusty slate]

A lot of the wording in the Adrift update post indicated that they will continue to expand on ship customization too. So I think it's not so much of a will but when.

I wouldn't mind them adding another craftable MT type either. Or at least some new staff part sets.

[reef grove]

MT?

Oh multitool

[heady pilot]

multitool.

[lusty slate]

Yup, that's what happened to me. Was prepared for a hunt... and the first two uncharteds I warped to had robofauna.

[trail kraken]

grumpy vykeen
went to a distress signal and there's no ship

[indigo falcon]

multiplayer off in case you didn't

[trail kraken]

ig

can you refine chromatic metal from activated metals?

it gives you more right

which is it 😭

[indigo falcon]

I thnk activ. copper is 1:1 and the others are better, 1 act metal -> more than one chromatic

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Chromatic_Metal#Source

[trail kraken]

ah

so you can refine but its not better (speaking about copper)

[heady pilot]

Wait, yes you can. Sorry, I read that wrong. I thhought you were asking about refining chromatic into activated metals.

[trail kraken]

checks out

[trail kraken]

ah fair enough

[indigo falcon]

it is better than copper. activated emeril: 1 of those -> 3 chromatic metal.

[trail kraken]

alright

thanks

[heady pilot]

Chromatic can also be refined with the base metals to multiply them...especially useful with Indium because turning 1 chromatic into 1 indium which then refines back into 2 chromatic is a useful way to multiply chromatic and indium.

[indigo falcon]

Pure Ferrite ×1 + Activated Copper ×1 → Chromatic Metal ×2 things like that

if you're not actually needing to build up stock and this is for expedition purposes only, of course any recipe will do as long as it gets you "enough"

[trail kraken]

useful but yeah I just needed to install my hyperdrive

I'll keep it in mind for my main save though

[rare mulch]

So you can't get carried in this expedition?

[indigo falcon]

I didn't quite understand the question, can you explain a little?

[rare mulch]

Like someone to help you complete it faster

[indigo falcon]

you can play with others, yes.

[rare mulch]

Like someone to take me around the game to make it easier

Rather than having to do all the work

(Carry)

[analog oyster]

Why is that I am playing on my Nintendo switch, and I can’t access the expedition at all?

[indigo falcon]

mm you'd have to find someone interested in doing that, as opposed to the usual co-op gameplay

[indigo falcon]

switch has it, make sure you're on 4.70 update and system time is set right.... not sure after that

[analog oyster]

K thanks

[low light]

How much was it supposed to be to copy the iron vulture?

[indigo falcon]

2.8k nanites maybe?

[low light]

It's asking 7k for me

[indigo falcon]

change any difficulty settings?

I mean off of "normal" mode

[low light]

Oof, that worked. Went down to 924 nanites

[indigo falcon]

what did you have it at to get 7k?

[low light]

I was playing on custom settings for a challenge

[indigo falcon]

ah that would be it, normal mode should be 2.8k yeah

[low light]

Well, creative brings it down to 924

[indigo falcon]

heh not free but not bad

[low light]

Yep, three more iron vultures for the same price

[lusty slate]

You might have to update NMS manually. Sometimes it won't auto-download the new one.

[rare mulch]

Now I gotta find ancient runes

Ughhh

Why they just don't make a simpler game to play man

[low light]

Set that mission as active and use the signal booster

[rare mulch]

That dumb thing does only 2 things gives me trade post or nothing

[low light]

Set the ruins mission as active

I just did that one last night, took like ten minutes total

[rare mulch]

Keep saying nothings found again

[heady pilot]

You don't need the glyphs for the expedition...in fact it would be exponentially harder to get the glyphs in the expedition than doing the entire expedition itself.

[rare mulch]

On a different plant in a different system

[low light]

Make sure you're not in an uncharted system

Because uncharted = no one has lived there to make ruins

[indigo falcon]

for those sorts of missions, you always need to have the mission pinned, and there should be two signal booster options, one will be the right one and the second one will be the generic "nearby structures" which you should ignore. if you're on a regular (not dead, not worm hive) world, an dit's not finding something in your area, fly off a bit and try again

and yes there needs to be a race associated with the system (i.e. it has a space station)

[rare mulch]

I need a smake brb

[manic tulip]

what is this?

loot from some mosntrosity, encounted randomly when traveling between planets

[cobalt spoke]

Oh I sold that- must be your turn 😉

I think it's just a cool thing to sell

[little torrent]

Note: It won't actually stalk you.

[manic tulip]

anyway i could try and outstalk it

[wraith junco]

Sadly

[manic tulip]

cool egg bro

interacted with egg sequencer a couple of times and got this :/

not including multiple duplicated (and broken just as this one) stacks of items

just deleted everything that was bugged

[calm yoke]

Just curious, has anyone else had their starting MT have 4 supercharged slots, even though it's a C-class? I made a fresh save for the expedition and now I'm using my main account and it's the exact same

[wraith junco]

Yep

Just expedition things.

[chilly sinew]

how do i advance signs to nowhere, ive got it up to 2/12 but now whenever i search for structers it doesnt progress

[lusty slate]

Thanks for the transferable Writhing Manuscript, Adrift.

[lilac scroll]

I finished the expedition and now I’m sad.

Adrift was a blast.

[drowsy thicket]

I'm still working on this, by the way

[unkempt hemlock]

How on earth are you meant to get wiring loom without dismantling existing tech lol

[wraith venture]

Space station, starting system per this thread: #nms-expedition message

[remote thunder]

@unkempt hemlock yep, remember check the trade terminal in stations for useful stuff, non-station trade terminals like in trade outposts have different stocks

[unkempt hemlock]

I've never seen a space station in adrift with a trade terminal in it

Or a trade outpost with one

Am I just unlucky or what lol

[edgy hamlet]

Where do you get the hyponic eye from?

[unkempt hemlock]

You have one in your ship right? I know I spawned with one

[remote thunder]

can be bought from trade terminals in station, but you should have spawned with one in your inventory, i had one too

[edgy hamlet]

I didnt think to look on ship inv.

I just logged off so i check Tomo thanks peeps

[unkempt hemlock]

Lol fair

[remote thunder]

when you exit your ship, go to your left, you'll see a door on the upper floor. go through the tunnel, there will be a trade terminal inside. on the other side of the station, there will be the teleporter room

[unkempt hemlock]

Aaaand nevermind I never checked the rooms

Never thought to check those ngl lmao

Just found it

[remote thunder]

trade terminal on starter system

[unkempt hemlock]

Do stations like this spawn in normal nms or is this just an adrift thing

Cus I've never seen ones like this before

Oh niceee sus packets don't mind if I do

You can dismantle the upgrade things for materials after installation can't you?

[lusty slate]

Be aware there's no one to sell them to for nanites.

[unkempt hemlock]

I can upgrade my stuff and dismantle the unneeded ones for materials

[lusty slate]

Aha, then continue

In my run, I dismantled the ship rocket launcher for copper for the hyperdrive. Didn't feel like going back to the starter planet to get more lol

[unkempt hemlock]

Smart

I also learned today you don't need all 3 drives to go to all 3 special star systems only the induim drive is needed

[low light]

Next expedition take an indium drive with you

I have nothing left to do in adrift, yet I feel like I don't want to end it yet

[white agate]

So what’s going to happen with the Adrift galaxy after the expedition? Curious what its relationship is with the other 256.

[sleek siren]

it should be an instanced setting, which won't be available after the expedition

[white agate]

Thanks!

[sleek siren]

oh do keep in mind it is still technically Euclid galaxy, with some modifiers, so it may still be used to record certain finds

[white agate]

I’m actually working on dropping a base at a portal in every galaxy, so wanted to be sure whether this one would persist.

[sleek siren]

would likely become available in regular Euclid.
Now im not sure about interactions with previously existing bases in the same spot (before expedition).

[white agate]

Hmm, might have to give it a try.

[gloomy trail]

Do you have to have the new hauler equipped on your expedition save to copy it over to the main save?

[low light]

They definitely stay

[white agate]

TY

[low light]

Drop a base somewhere during the expedition and you can go back. You'll see everyone else's as well and can warp to them from the station in that system

[ashen shore]

Im glad the devs fulfilled their dream of making a resource deposit for giant sandworm turds, but did they have to make it so common? Had to reset my expedition because there was literally no copper around me

The 2nd try one was almost a bust because it was one of those "empty" deposits, but i finally found on. And then i spent 30 minutes melee slapping rocks for oxygen

In other words, classic no mans sky gameplay here

[prime zinc]

regarding expeditions started from fresh saves, what happens to them after the expedition ends?

will i get a save file that is permanently in that state or does it become a normal save file?

[solemn bane]

It becomes normal

[prime zinc]

ah i see

[ashen shore]

Am I able to change my active ship I want cloned after starting an expedition or am I stuck with whatever I had as active before starting?

[misty widget]

it became normal as soon as I finished the expedition

[mental saddle]

What's the progress, guys?

[waxen shuttle]

so i'm trying to do the chart waypoints but it's stuck at 3/12

[frosty wing]

if i could dupe i could get enough nanites to buy my ship

how to find black holes without polo?

been a while since i played

[indigo falcon]

bit of a problem, isn't it? 😆 many things you just can't do in this expedition... gotta hope you happen across one or that some player posts info about a system with one, if you need it

[waxen shuttle]

okay I guess I had to turn off mp and find the waypoints myself

[indigo falcon]

don't bother with the signal booster in any case, just fly low to the ground and scan for unknown buildings, you should be able to get a bunch that way if you're not on a dead/exotic world

[frosty wing]

omg, somehow ive got the portable refiner plans! i didnt have them when i started, but do now - right when i need them

[indigo falcon]

ok... but why isn't the personal refiner mk 2 good enough?

[frosty wing]

duping - i have processed the slime into runaway mold, now duped that into 3 stacks (from the 3 i had using 5 portable refiners) and am now processing that into nanites, then will dupe that with my 5 p.r.'s into ~5k nanites to buy my star runner at the anomoly

[indigo falcon]

oic makes sense

[frosty wing]

not sure when i earned the plans, but i certainly am glad

just duped 18,000 nanites

and completed the nanite foam mission

[indigo falcon]

that ought to hold you for nanites for a good while 😄

[frosty wing]

quite - star runner is good to be in again

yeaaaah - 670ly jump - so much better than the 99ly jumps i could make before

[indigo falcon]

lol indium from a buried cache. ah this game

[frosty wing]

so... ive travelled over 7,000ly from where i started, but its not allowing me to restart with local structures 😦

over 10 jumps at over 700ly each

[indigo falcon]

mmm 4k should have been enough, but is it over 4k distant from where you were, the jumps might not all have been in the same exact direction?

[frosty wing]

i was heading to the galactic core so i expect it should be

i just found a new exotic planet i havent come across before - its unique fauna are balls of electicity with a red core

"uprooted" fauna

[indigo falcon]

enjoy!

could plop down a base computer, find it again later in normal mode

[frosty wing]

wait thats a thing?!

i already warped, and cant find the system again

waah

[indigo falcon]

bases carry over. next time then

[frosty wing]

OH MY GOD - i just found the system by chance

[indigo falcon]

could check discoveries, see the system name, see if you stopped in the space station, or plot a custom waypoint

ah excellent

[frosty wing]

done - thank you for that

the planet was a metalluric boime type

[timid mango]

Hi folks. Is there a bug with the ship upgrade? My A-Class sentinel ship didn't upgrade to s like it said it was going to. I'm kind of annoyed, lol

[indigo falcon]

I have heard other players report this issue.

[rough hatch]

which rendezvous point has a water planet?

[indigo falcon]

can't remember if any of them do, but systems on the way will have them. just keep your eye out for "// Water" at the end of the system description in the galaxy map.

[frosty wing]

just warped another 10 times at over 700ly per jump - last time was to the galactic core, but that was like parallel to the current mission

so i set it to current mission and went again - still no reset unfortunately

[edgy hamlet]

Dam i sood the storm crystal i had. Now I need it. Just typical 😂

[frosty wing]

sooo, i just rechecked the phase 2 reward and its base wreckage parts

i can deal without them - moving on

[opal oyster]

Is there a bug with the 4th rendezvous?

[ashen shore]

Using my own ship and multi tool makes this easier

[hot stream]

Is there a way to get all my previous expedition stuff on a new save file or how does that work?

[lethal mantle]

No, what's your issue

[lethal mantle]

Yes. Once the anomaly is available you can claim old expedition completion items through the quicksilver merchant

[hot stream]

Thank you 🤙🏼

[opal oyster]

For some reason it wasn't marking complete when I got to the freighter crash. It's resolved itself now

[paper ether]

me being unable to find dig sites for bones:

[fossil token]

Man do I really have to go through all 3 warp drives

Without cheating

[meager scroll]

for what

Robotic fauna?

No, visit red systems, you can build the Cadmium Drive easily

[fossil token]

I still gotta build 2 ultimately superfluous ones then, it's not much better lol
Edit : of wait the cadmium drive is the first one not the 2nd

[sinful elk]

Is there anyway to get back the Iron Vulture after I've accidently scrapped it after completing the Expedition?

[fossil token]

[hollow shore]

See if this pinned info helps you:
#nms-expedition message

[indigo falcon]

a little late but: in rend 1 system (Havida-Bozho) the frozen planet Sadene VI has lots of bones and is a pretty pleasant place generally

[fossil token]

Found 2 in the first red system I tried lmao

[thin tangle]

Is it safe to presume the route on the galactic map is the fastest when locating dissonance? I need shards and now it wants me to back and and them some couple thousands lys..

[faint mesa]

That's weird -- if you are on the expedition route, there are plenty of dissonant systems in the path

[thin tangle]

I passed one, to which I'll have to guess and relocate but it doesn't point me to it, just some random one in the distance when I selected the objective

[faint mesa]

Are you heading for a rendezvous?

I think I'd just continue on the path

I mean, it seemed easy to me to find dissonant planets just by following the expedition's intended path

[thin tangle]

Yeah, i think I'll just do that then. Just seemed a bit odd it chose one so far after I only just reached the second rendezvous

[ashen shore]

Where the heck can I get atlantidium? And activated copper?

[thin tangle]

Yellow stars with storms for Activated Copper iirc, as for the Atlantidium you get that from Dissonant planets. You'll be able to search for it and it'll leave markers on the galactic map for you.

There are a few along the expedition route as mentioned above so you will come across these planets

[ashen shore]

Awesome. Thank you very much 🙂

[thin tangle]

Happy travels!

[indigo falcon]

note that the other world in the starter system had activated copper.

[finite harbor]

oh sh

[ashen shore]

Where do I find the robotic creatures????

This expedition is great. I'm interested in the lore behind it. Why is this entire universe empty? It wasn't at one point. It's like Thanos snapped his fingers and just said no to life. So far I haven't found a solid explanation as to why. Just faded memories and vast emptiness.

[faint mesa]

Check pins, many tips and systems with them there

[lethal kelp]

[shut dagger]

hi guys, so i just started the expedition and i need deuterium to fix my launch thrusters. the problem is that i need tritium and di-hydrogen, but i cant destroy asteroids for tritium because my launch thrusters are broken. any advice?

[neat latch]

The recipe is different for Deuterium in the expedition. You can make it with DiHydroge + Dirt, iirc.

[shut dagger]

oh

thanks :)

oh yeah it works

thanks

[frail pendant]

Best way to dupe or obtain multiple iron vulture parts? I know there is more than one way too.

[remote thunder]

partially answered in -help, there's also a pinned post here that can help if you start an exp run from an existing save

[frail pendant]

Say if I have an iron vulture and I want to scrap it after the expedition ends, am I?

[remote thunder]

what i said in help

alt: save, get a part, push it to another player, reload, get a second part, push 2nd part to other player, repeat for 3rd part

as long as you don't enter+exit ship after scrapping vulture, you can repeat this the three times needed

using another player to hold the parts basically

[hoary cave]

I need help

where can I find hungering tendrils?

[indigo falcon]

any of the rendezvous planets have worms. just look around for the green glowy mounds, there will be 5-6 of them spread out in a group. if you can't find them, track one of the giant worms and see where it comes up/enters, it will lead you to some

[hoary cave]

ah I see ok, thank you

[quaint root]

Can anyone remind me how to get upgrades for my multitool outside of shops? I'm about to take on a abandoned freighter and I was not expecting new changes there! The new security lasers are a pain! But the whole place did use to be a lot easier so I don't mind a bit more challenge

[cedar wind]

Is it just me that thinks it's kind of weird for the cook your own food milestone to be in phase 5?

[remote thunder]

i ran through my df mission and didn't fire a single shot. that said, phase 2 milestone 4 will reward scatter blaster+s-class scatter blaster module, which, combined with paralysis mortar (phase 2 milestone 5) should be all that you need

[cedar wind]

I guess the order doesn't matter lol

[remote thunder]

as long as you already had unlocked the nutrient processor, yeah, doesn't really matter when

[cedar wind]

Also quick silver seems to be pretty rare compared to the previous expedition, the last expedition was the first one I ever did so just wondering if I'm missing something?

[remote thunder]

exp12 was a special one

[cedar wind]

Yeah I figured

[remote thunder]

not all exps will be like it in qs rewards

[cedar wind]

That makes sense, glad to have it confirmed.

And it doesn't matter now but... Was it foolish of me to bring over the exp12 ship for this one? 😛

I was definiitely spoiled prior to coming into this

[quaint root]

Thank you! I should have that all unlocked already. Just wondered if I forgot a part of the tutorial before on how to get upgrades aside from NPCs

[remote thunder]

once you get access to the anomaly in exp13, you should be able to copy starborn runner, if that's the ship you had equipped when you started the exp13 run from the existing save

[cedar wind]

Yeah thats exactly what I did. I missed it's jump distance and speed

[indigo falcon]

I used the scatter against a few security drones on the derelict, that was it though

(sorry for the long delay, looking at channels only intermittently today)

[mellow blaze]

stuck on 2/3 robotic lifeforms

[indigo falcon]

there are systems pinned in here close to rendezvous systems, if you get really stuck

[royal jetty]

I'm on The lure of the deep will it say if a planet have the Suphide vents?

how can I tell if it has it?

[indigo falcon]

if it has water then it should have those

just don't go to a shallow lake ,find shoreline of a large body of water

[royal jetty]

how can I tell it it has water?

[blazing fossil]

You’ll see it from space

[remote thunder]

right one has water, left one does not

[royal jetty]

ok so I have to be close to the planet can't see it in the ap

map

[remote thunder]

if you look at your discoveries tab, and at the planet in the system view, you might be able to tell too

[indigo falcon]

you can see if the system itself says // water at the end of the description and then you know at least one planet must have it

[old fox]

thats the wrong channel my bad

[ashen shore]

5 systems in no dig sites...

[indigo falcon]

rendezvous system 1 Havida-Bozho has a planet Sadene VI with bones

[ashen shore]

Perfect. Thank you very much 🙂

wht are the rewards for the expedition?

[blazing fossil]

[indigo falcon]

specifically #nms-expedition message

[ashen shore]

oke

[graceful thunder]

Repost from #nms-questions: Anyone trying to complete the expedition in VR:
Since your HUD does not move with your headset, you are wholly unable to "look up" at the stars.
You can build a huge staircase so that your "looking forward" elevation — which, again, cannot be changed due to poorly-implemented HUD mechanics — is far enough above the horizon to count.
Otherwise, the only other solution is to reboot into flatscreen mode.

[remote thunder]

saw someone having trouble with this not long ago, so thank you for posting a workaround

[graceful thunder]

I had to look it up, and found a random reddit thread

I wish they'd just fix the 🤬🤬🤬 HUD, but it is what it is

[remote thunder]

@worthy beacon ^ just in case you're still having trouble with the "look up at night sky" milestone, see this post with a workaround

[lime plume]

This cursed dust on the first planet. Are we gonna need it later?

[remote thunder]

not really

all rendezvous planets have cursed dust too

[lime plume]

Ah, thanks, just wanted to be sure I wouldn't regret it if I didn't mine it now.

[remote thunder]

nah you'll be fine

[royal jetty]

The frieghter the talking about in the first pic is it the same one that I found in the 2nd?

I wish someone would do a guide yes there are videos but they jump around alot

[remote thunder]

no

fathoms below is about getting to a underwater crashed freighter

dereliction is about going to space, and using the emergency signal scanner you get from fathoms below

derelict freighter in starter and rdv1 system don't have any bugs

[royal jetty]

ok

I finally found an ok looking ship

I really don't want to spen the time to get nanites to take my ship over

[ashen shore]

Go through the trouble to chart and find a waypoint and it does t count towards the mission

How many waypoints are on a planet roughly?

[remote thunder]

a lot.

[remote thunder]

are you still on the starter planet?

[worthy beacon]

thanks, I kept having issues with this one eventually I figured out I was able to look at a very specific angle that was like 50-60 degrees up and was somehow able to get it to work

I appreciate you thinking about me!

I knew there was at least one person out of the 8 billion people on this planet thinking about me through out their day. NMS player BK201 just wasn't at the top of the list

[remote thunder]

haha 😄

[fresh sinew]

found a nice ocean planet and popped down to look for a sunken freighter

been here about an hour I think

absolutely zilch

even built a little base

and then I realize I am in an uncharted system

[remote thunder]

yeah, has to be inhabited

[unkempt kraken]

to view info below, enable embeds

<:info:850810445577453658> Galaxy Map: NPC presence

Star systems can be inhabited, abandoned or uncharted. We can easily tell the difference between inhabited and uncharted, but abandoned systems are a little easier to miss. Take a look at the embedded image.

[royal jetty]

can I make my own ship?

in adrift

[faint pelican]

So, super scared to do my first DF, if I start and save from the space station before landing on the DF can I go back to that save if I die? Soooooo scared!

[sleek siren]

without any available inhabited space stations, there's no terminal to fabricate them

[sleek siren]

yes, the game never creates restore point on board of a derelict

[royal jetty]

are the derelict the same per system or can get random one?

[summer nest]

Each system is it's own

so if you find one you like you can farm it

[remote thunder]

afaik, it's still 1+n interior layouts per system, where n is the number of moons in that system

[brittle isle]

Any tips for my first expedition never did one first time now

[remote thunder]

pause, review milestones and their rewards in the Expedition tab, even of phases ahead; some milestones tie into each other, while rewards from others allow player easier completion of different milestones. check pinned posts; type !faq-expedition in #bot-spam

[wanton frigate]

Found my fourth ship. Four in a row look like a fiat ritmo humping a lipstick. Is there anywhere to turn this dross into cash?

[median goblet]

How to get the item that I put in during the start of this expedition at the anomaly?

[hot stream]

How do I get previously earned expedition earned ships on newer saves?

[remote thunder]

nope

[remote thunder]

progress till you unlock the anomaly, then interact with the expedition terminus

[remote thunder]

can't claim prev unlocked items in expedition mode, but in any other mode, from the anomaly/quicksilver shop/claim expedition rewards

[hot stream]

Thank you 🤙🏼

[wanton frigate]

Side question - do crashed ships appear on your radar as red squares before you've found them? Never noticed it before.

[remote thunder]

yep 🙂

[wanton frigate]

Game changer! Thanks.

Well, it will be assuming there's an s-class fiat ritmo humping a lipstick out there waiting for me....

[cerulean totem]

Is there a fast way to get from rendezvous 1 to 2, I had to use 2 warp cores

Hyperdrive upgrades

[cobalt spoke]

Hello, is there any way to transfer the expedition freighter to the main save?

[winged bloom]

fly from system to system until you get a dissonent one and then find and fix a sentinal ship, makes traveling easier

[slate fractal]

im forgot but are unit/nanite/qs already in ur inventory will transfer to ur main save ?
i know item in ur inv will convert to unit/nanite.

[ashen shore]

Using a signal booster does lost or nearby find me a save beacon?

[silent elbow]

Hey uhhh not sure where to report this but someone built a structure around one of the quest points in phase 5 and I can't do anything about it and therefore can't complete the expedition...

Any ideas?

[ashen shore]

I feel like I'm ge uinely wasting my sirge batteries trying to find these points because they're sending me to literally everything BUT a save beacon. This feels far.more.frustrating than it should be

[silent elbow]

that one pissed me off too

NOT AS MUCH as im pissed off right now though

I literally cant complete this quest because someone built a structure around it with no doors

[slate fractal]

open ur quick menu, there is an option to report base, and the base will disappear iirc

[silent elbow]

okay im good, I went to a teleporter and someone made a base at I guess another point that was for the same quest so I was able to complete it there!

[limber solstice]

Hello guys, I need help with a specific resource

Wiring looms, how can i get it in this expedition?

[wanton frigate]

Buy them from the space station terminals or a planetary commerce hub.

[limber solstice]

Ohh I thought it didn't work because they were abandoned

[umbral shell]

Me when I am headed to an ancient ruin:

[sullen gulch]

Need help

Can’t leave my planet

Need deuterium

[muted granite]

Have the personal refiner yet? Use silica powder (from terrain blasting) plus hydrogen in there, and it’ll make Deuterium.

[sullen gulch]

Can’t do that

Have started the expedition… on a very bad planet without any stuff

[gloomy moss]

I really gotta finish this expedition

[gloomy moss]

It’s the same for everyone

[indigo falcon]

you need to work on the milestones in order for the first few. first is getting to your starship, to get the adv mining laser plans; after that is installing the adv mining laser, to get the personal refiner mk 2 plans. on the way to starship, look out for carbon and oxy especially; once you get the adv mining laser plans, prioritize getting those materials. you may have to go quite a ways away from the ship

[gloomy moss]

You can get hydrogen and silica powder on any planet

Oh also go underground during storms

Or in your ship

[indigo falcon]

just use the low grav on the planet to extend your jet pack use; i.e. just tap that jet pack to get airborne nd let low grav carry you the rest of the way, so you preserve life support. and don't forget to scan the minerals, some have secondary elts that can help keep you alive, even if in small amounts. if you get really stuck you can melee the rocks to save mining beam charge

the other thing to keep in mind is that a cave could give you hazardous flora (there's oxy and sodium), so keeping an eye out for subterranean relics is a good idea too, though not required.

[low light]

Imagine if the whole expedition was increasingly difficult to match the first phase

[pliant terrace]

Hi is it possible to get all the ship upgrade modules of the expedition into the main save?

[remote thunder]

you only have 8 tech slots in the stash to be able to bring back stuff to main save, but you are allowed to copy a ship (or ships, if you haven't yet finished expedition) back to your main save, including its full tech inventory, as is in expedition

[pliant terrace]

Thx

[hot stream]

That discover 3 synthetic life forms part took me for ever! 😂

[indigo falcon]

the only milestone that took a while for me was the derelict, because I had a weird bug where one would just not spawn. the rest, I got lucky, found things along the route, or (in the case of the robofauna) the red uncharted systems I visited near the route had them about half of the time. I guess objectively the "hardest" was getting the heck off the starting planet with enough resources to keep going

also managed not to hit any of the known bugs before the hotfix for them landed

[wanton frigate]

in many ways it's a shame the 1st planet is so carbon-poor, because otherwise it's perfect for the egg-raiding milestone. Zap as many eggs as you can and then fart and you're in orbit. But you can't afford to waste your precious charge on eggs that don't have any carbon in them. Carbon is life. CARBON IS LIFE.

[meager scroll]

Starting planet has condensed carbon crystals, like all planets do

so mine that, pop it into a refiner to get regular carbon

[remote thunder]

alternatively, i found it easy to just melee the crystals to save on some mining beam fuel - not a lot, but every little bit helps

[frosty wing]

i think i recharged the mining beam with silicon so mined that with the terrain manipulator

[thin tangle]

Exactly, and since there's a low gravity field it's easy to traverse the space in between the crystals, and since they're red on a barren terrain they stand out a lot.

I'll be honest, I panicked before I remembered I could make deterium

[trail iron]

One of the goals gives you the blueprints for the in-suit backpack refiner.

[sleek talon]

is there any way to know which systems to jump to for the 'bones to dust' task?

[hollow shore]

No, not at a system level, but scanning planets within a system should indicate the presence with sort of a wifi shield icon (yellow). Once planet side, you use Analysis Visor looking for the same icon

[sleek talon]

shame :/

i've had to resort to revisiting previous systems and wait for the task info to update to say that a planet has been found

[wraith junco]

Rdv 1 system planet has bones

[sleek talon]

thx!

[limpid flame]

Anyone want to help me with my epxo don’t have any clue on what this is?

[calm yoke]

What are you struggling with?

[limpid flame]

Okay so I have just started playing and nms seems easy

[meager scroll]

If you're new to the game, jumping into expedition is not something I'd recommend

Start a new Normal save, play it for a week or so to learn the game

Then you can start the expedition, you will still have plenty of time to finish it

[trail iron]

There are bones planets in some of the rendezvous systems. Bones will be listed as a resource when you scan a planet from space

[calm yoke]

Was a second statement supposed to follow this? Or are you just surprised it seems easy? I thought there was going to be a, "seems easy, but..."

[limpid flame]

I can’t get a refinery

[calm yoke]

The personal refiner? The backpack one?

[limpid flame]

P

[wanton frigate]

Get to your ship, that unlocks the Advanced mining beam as a reward - claim it - then install that which will require you to gather a few bits and bobs for parts, then claim the reward for installing it to get the refiner. Easy peasy. Apart from all the suffocating you'll be doing along the way on account of how little oxygen you have, but there you go.

That part of the expedition is surprisingly linear. After that, feel free to go full Legion and do all the phases at once.

[valid roost]

Alr so I'm currently on part 1 of phase 2, used up all my surge batteries on the wrong setting and now have no clue where to get them

[wanton frigate]

there's a blueprint as a reward I think, so make more

[calm yoke]

you can craft more

[valid roost]

Does anyone know how I can get more without doing the minotaur part and unlocking the scanner that way?

[valid roost]

I tried that but it doesn't say I have the recipe

I checked the anomaly to see if its in there yet can't find the recipe there either

[valid roost]

Asteroids?

[wanton frigate]

Have you done Stirring the Nest?

Or is it Make Do and Mend?

[valid roost]

Not yet, is that the one with the horrors?

[wanton frigate]

It's one of them. Basically fix up your ship and multitool , then blast some worms and eggs, and all will be right with the world

[valid roost]

Yh I've done that but used all my surge batteries for buildings instead of transmissions

Ah alr, thanks 👍

[thick umbra]

You will get 5 if you shoot 40 Asteroids

[valid roost]

Yh I already done that and wasted the batteries

[noble cobalt]

me everytime placing down the exocraft station

[trail iron]

you do learn the surge battery recipe at some point. Recommend you do other goals until that happens. They do not need to be done in any specific order.

[trail iron]

this is why i now use my freighter summoner 😄

[thick umbra]

than you need to do Make Do and Mend for the blueprint

[noble cobalt]

sameee

[valid roost]

So I've learnt, but I'd prefer to do it in order

No clue why, just a personal preference

[trail iron]

well, don't think about it too much, but I'll recommend you hit the save point beacon (the red and white spinny flag) each time you visit a building site.

[valid roost]

Alr

[trail iron]

and scan yourself some plants and animals as you go along. Again, not thinking too much about it.

[frosty wing]

I WAS STRUGGLING WITH THE MOUNTAIN QUEST, BUT GOT IT INSTANTLY UPON LANDING ON REV 3

[calm yoke]

lol same

[frosty wing]

sorry - was editing my spreadsheet for budget

[trail iron]

Lolz. i got the height one on the very first planet.

[sleek talon]

just finished it thanks 🙂

I'm now trying to find a crashed ship. I'm guessing there's no way of knowing if a system/planet has one until you land on it?

[trail iron]

use the submarine radar, which I believe you unlock thru one of the goals.

meanwhile, collect the crystal sulfide and visit a water freighter crash.

[summer nest]

Or Minotaur scan for distress calls

[sleek talon]

okay thanks!

what's minotaur scan?

[wanton frigate]

the minotaur exocraft has a scanner that can pick up distress signals

[sleek talon]

nvm I answered my own question 😄

thanks!

guess I need to go find me some robots!

[winter rover]

Low gravity planet goes brrr

Can people not make bases on the starter planet though xD

[paper abyss]

Hey guys do you know where to find whispering eggs?

[meager scroll]

Starting planet has them

[paper abyss]

Ohh okay thanks

Wait what system is the starting planet in?

[meager scroll]

Check the pinned messages

[paper abyss]

Thank you

[keen stone]

This is messed up

The system I'm in entirely lacks a space station

[sleek talon]

there's enough by R2

[keen stone]

Augh is there a better way to find a crashed freighter than taking off and landing my ship across a planet and then popping into a nautilus to check

[elder yarrow]

have you tried using the beacon with the milestone selected?

[keen stone]

A save beacon?

[valid linden]

Did you mean Signal Booster?

[keen stone]

That's

Yeah

I assume so

Ah fuck and I thought I was done looking for sodium plants

[keen stone]

Neat pfp btw

[sleek talon]

Adipocere-the Immortal — Today at 4:51 PM
Or Minotaur scan for distress calls

That's what I was told when I asked earlier 😄

[keen stone]

Oh cool

[sleek talon]

not sure if it works the same for the freighter. I was asking about repairing a crashed ship

[keen stone]

Ah

No sadly it probably wouldn't work for an underwater wreck

Aaaaa damn it that means I have to search for gold too

[sleek talon]

ahh sorry mb 😦

[keen stone]

Anyway I'm gonna play something else for a bit and try more later

[sleek talon]

this is my first expedition, is there a quicksilver vendor anywhere or does the quicksilver carry over to the main game?

I want to buy the rainbow trail jetpack 😄

[valid linden]

Indeed

[keen stone]

Indeed

[hollow lynx]

Soo emm, how do I get a emergency signal scanner?

Nevermind, got it as a reward and it's in my god damn nautiloid.....

[winter rover]

I started the exp from the terminal and I'm not able to retrieve my saved appearance? I thought it was a thing but maybe its just bad memory

[sleek talon]

are you not able to teleport to other players bases on this expedition? I'm on Xbox and all the bases i've opened give me the message 'unable to download base'

[remote thunder]

what teleporter are you using? pause/discoveries/lower left, is the connection to online discovery services active?

[edgy hamlet]

Yes on the space anomaly

[remote thunder]

in exp13 there's no quicksilver bot npc

@sleek talon earned quicksilver does carry over to main save after finish, if started expedition from existing save ofc

[edgy hamlet]

How do i find a system with dig sites for ancient bones?

[remote thunder]

rdv1 has a planet with bones

[edgy hamlet]

Ah i thought i saw one somewhere along the way

[cedar wind]

Hey everyone I keep getting a popup that says I have expedition rewards to collect... But I've already collected them. Is it a bug?

[sleek talon]

I eventually found one that worked!

I was in a spacestation

[sleek talon]

Cool thanks!

[remote thunder]

in your main save? hmm, maybe from a different expedition?

[sleek talon]

cool thanks

[silver vessel]

That last checkpoint planet was an absolute bitch

[remote thunder]

yeah, rdv location on the side of a mountain

[cedar wind]

Yeah main save, I thought so too. But the quicksilver guy has nothing new to collect lol

[remote thunder]

but hey, gotta have a little challenge sometimes
