Sorta. You can bring back as much as you want, assuming the items are allowed:
Once you have finished the required milestones but before you click End Expedition, you can put items in the expedition terminal and switch to your primary save in the pause menu to collect them. This can be repeated multiple times.
In my case it was locked till I clicked finish expedition or something. Don't remember the exact details but I could only do it once
If you can do it once, you can do it more than once.
After you put the items in you save and switch to your primary save in the pause menu
I think it you click on end expedition, the return to primary button goes away, but the slots become unlocked, and the only button that exists is finish expedition
If you click end there are no chances to add anything to the terminal
Oh in the pause menu?
aye
Nice will try it for my next exp π but the cargo etc auto turning into currency is also nice
@solemn bane in case you still have the game running could you check something for me real quick? You're able to craft Orbital Uplink whenever you want once you get back to the main save right?
I could before the patch, I didn't think to try after. I'll check.
They patch a blueprint out? Feels like a waste to not add it in for general use no?
You never know what they're gonna do
@boreal violet
π
This save was converted after 6.04
Thanks, so yeah @boreal violet should be next to warp cell crafting icon
It'll change based on what you crafted last
Love skydiving and using one of these right before impact
Knowledge is power, didn't know that
Wish you could attach a product to a hot key, like dpads?
I will definitely be keeping my save then π
@solid sentinel has an issue with the harmonic seal mission
ok, this is coming from someone who has not played in god knows how long ( I don't think expeditions even existed back then) Doing the current expedition and am trying to get this harmonic camp multi tool, used the interface and put in the correct symbol, it says access granted but only gives the greyed out lockdown in progress and leave options, how do I remove this lockdown or did I bug it out somehow?
hello, how do i get the thing that i need to locate the staff for the quest on the 3. page ?
how did you even got there ? how did you find the things to locate it ?
Mission rewards I think
damn i should have it too, but i dont
the Wilds thing mile stone gives one as a reward
yes i completed it too, but i dont have one
did you actually collect the milestone reward?
yes
You try turning off MP and restarting the game?
I know I'm not the only one with this problem lol there is a camp of ships forming around this place
is there a way to get a second echo locater ?
Like quit the game completely and relaunch
You can kill corrupted sentinels until one drops. Also you can get them from the big mirror dudes. They either dop mirrors or locators (locators at a smaller rate)
@versed tree you can ping here for expedition related queries
ahhh thank you
how do i fall 60 seconds of my corvette ?
Enter a planets atmosphere and then jump out of the corvette
ahhh ty
anyone got spare walker brain need one for conflict scanner
Did you finish the milestone just before it before the 6.04 patch? If not go beat it and you'll get a Walker Brain
Oof, nm, I conflated two different things. Walker Brain is from a previous milestone but it's always been there.
Check missions givers and nexus to see if there is any brains as reward
thanks! apreciate that ^
You claim the rewards during the expedition, then finish expedition and carry them over to main save
ah cool got it!
Some rewards can be brought in manually, others will be available by a person on the anomaly that usually gives out twitch rewards
He's called skin Walker or something man I just blanked out so bad
Quicksilver?
ahh oke thanks! got it, so claim the milestone rewards while in the expedition! got it
Yep
Claim everything before ending
And while ending you can choose what you want to bring in
You can actually only end it if you claim all the rewards, so don't worry about that
Some you don't have (will auto carry over) and some you do
is there a limited amount to what i can bring back out? because i brought in alot of materials aswell xD will i have to chose between bringing those materials back out and the rewards? haha
Once you have finished the required milestones but before you click End Expedition, you can put items in the expedition terminal and switch to your primary save in the pause menu to collect them. This can be repeated multiple times.
@solemn bane can help, in my case it was only one time with a limited quantity but I'm relatively inexperienced at expeditions, this was my first one
Fear my copy/paste skills.
ππ«‘
ohhhh!! perfect! makes sense now thanks!
Some rewards are not save specific items per se, like banners and the robot mouse lol, they're like twitch drops and will auto carry over
Can you play expeditions with a crew? How does progression work in that case?
Nightmarishly broken, if I had to guess.
With how much emphasis light no fire is placing on co-op, wouldn't be surprised if one of the next exps is a co-op overhaul focus type lol
Speaking of nightmares. If I have to do an expedition online I may cry. Especially with other people.
Oh certainly but having the option to do it with people would be nice too
Like atleast have the ability to on a technical level
Yeah I'm sure normal people would enjoy that. Just don't rope me into it!
I'll spam invites to you specifically mf!
Finished the Expedition last night
Me too! No, wait, technically last morning.
You hadn't finished it earlier?!?
Sure, five times before that.
π
Last morning was my permadeath/hard mode run. The corrupted sentinel fight in a blizzard with a bolt caster pushed me pretty good, lol.
I fought the sentinels on an atmosphere less planet, punch and jetpack was really fun to fly above them
A couple did bug out and flew up really high but the game despawned them I guess
I don't allow myself to punch dash when I'm fighting sentinels
im in the 5. phase and have to loot the big lost cargo ship. how do i do it ? im done with it but dont get anything
They are already too stupid to win, I can't rub their faces in it too much
and it said i have explored 2/10 zones ?
Did you get the three things?
yes
Crew Manifest, Captain's Log then the end terminal
also done
Oof, you're not gonna like this
Leave any groups you are in, turn off multiplayer, and if it doesn't pop, restart your game. You may have to do it again which will mean buying another scanner from the dealer in the back right bottom of the space station for 8 million units
damn ty
You can try selling ship parts and grav balls lol
π«‘
Hm should've atleast been half no?
It should auto complete as soon as you get the last terminal
i looted everything but nothing happend
How did you get the manifest, log and get the last terminal reward with only exploring 2 zones? They are always in three different zones π
Even logically speaking,
Key in one room and 3 separate rooms, min of 4 hits
idk but i completed all 6 zones and found all passenger data
Did the individual objectives show a green check mark?
Bottom right hand corner right below the rooms explored count?
idk it had grey font below, saying i already took the data (or similiar,my game is in german)
i did not saw something like that π
ok, do what I said above and make sure the milestone is highlighted in your quest log
ty
https://youtu.be/BJDYbndM144?t=40m28s
Watch this in case you need to reattempt,
Oh and make sure you're not on any missions from the corvette mission thing. I saw that can make it so no other milestones will complete
(I kept taking the ones that were of the "kill sentinels" genre)
ty
i got it now, thank you 
What ended up working, out of curiosity?
what you said, i had to buy new coordinates
cool cool
now to my last quest. i have to deactive the guardians... do i just have to kill the 5 waves on a planet or visit their special output for which recived the map ?
Sentinels are bugged so it can be a pain. The map makes it easier since you just have to blow up the three thingies then deactivate the sentinels at the terminal
thank you
i got it now. thank you so much
I'm new, can I do the expedition mission and merge it with my main save? I'm a little confused on how this event works. any help is appreciated π
If you start the expedition from an existing save you will get the opportunity to transfer items and be able to clone your ship and weapon in to your main save. Normally you would be limited to what you can bring back but someone found out you can go back and forth transferring items as long as you don't choose End Expedition after completing all the milestones.
Did they take out the ability to get sentinel ships in the expedition
You are unable to claim any other ship but the corvette you build during the expedition.
Got it, thanks
Did it
Nice. At my rate it may be a couple more days before I finish.
Ggs
Congrats on completing it!
Every time an image like that comes up, you can hear the collective squeak of a million Switch player noses against the glass...
I wish you luck when it comes to switch
The redux ones will start just as switch get started on voyagers lol
anybody know how the 1200 quicksilver exidition milestone works ?
i dont understand what to do π
ohh sorry it is german
speak with the last statiuon multiple times
einfach mehrmals mit der letzten station reden
ohh you mean station 5
yepp
i try
Yep just go talk to it after doing the rendezvous 5 conversation
LOL thx π

The kidnapped one? I mean hitchhike one
wwhere i need to kill all 5 waves on a planet
if I end an expedition to move stuff between the saves, is the only difference that i can no longer do the expedition quest? I can still visit there if friends are playing?
Got a boundary map? Can get it shutting down a pillar
if you joine a player in expedition it start a new one for u
but i have heard you can go back and forth between the saves to deliver more loot between them? how would that work if you lose access to the primary expedition save on confirm
no clue haha
How long will I be able to keep copying my corvette to main save? Does that go away after the expedition ends?
Once it's over, you cannot interact with it anymore, yup. Until then, any time.
it would be a lot of nanite upkeep if you plan to keep copying all the time? rather than just do it when done
Thanks!
i thought there was a cost to copying corvette π€·ββοΈ
You can trade them in on other ships, which is ive been doing to farm storage upgrades for my main ship
oh, cool
basically its a way to turn 2.800 nanites into ~80 million units trade in value for whenever I find an s-class
im a noob, if there is a better way to turn nanites into units I do not know it
huh why i cant transfer the egg
Bc cant transfer pet eggs. But u can redeem exp pet egg in qs store
ohh nice its my first expidition i made
just a bit annoyng now to firgure out what i sould transfer to my main safe
if i sell anything i dont need to i get the nanits and units on my main safe ?

ohh so i dont need to sell anything by hand
so i think ive shot myself in the foot royally. Im at step where i need to completely explore a derelict freighter. I started it, landed and explored a bit but i had to go due to work so i saved. Now im back ingame and the freighter is obviously not there anymore and it seems only way for me to try locate one is to spend 5 million credits which i dont have. Anyone got any tips for me on how i can get past this?
you should have the item to spawn it again in your inventory again
normally nms safes before you activate it
i had tahe same issue, well ike the same, mine was bugged, i relogged and i hat the thing to start the mission again in my inventory
when i used the locators in my inventory it pointed me to different things one was a listening post and the other was a sentinel interceptor
well that should all be different things to active them
the one you are looking for its looking like a little television π
Check if you still have the emergency signal scanner with you -- that's the item to locate derelicts
When I leave expedition and copy corvette:
- Are all the things in my corvette workshop cache transferred over?
- Is any cargo inside my ship transferred?
end of phase 3 you get a starship trail customisation, how do you find this / apply it i dont see it at the terminal for expedition rewards
anyone here need hitchiker?
anyone know what happens once to this stuff once i convert my save back to primary ?
I came in here to ask about that. I think I messed it up, I wanted to transfer some of the stuff from my other save's inventory to my main save but I guess I can't do that? I'm so confused xD
what does sign the first rendezvous station mean? (im new)
Hello everyone I asked this a few weeks ago but never got around to it unfortunately is it safe to start an expedition from a main save and if so how do you do it ? And I have ai ship valves to bring what else should I I bring over ? Also when I finish the expedition do I get everything moved over to my main save when itβs over ?
Yeah I read that I should not choose End Expedition until I got all my items transferred but it's saying I have to choose it in order to transfer any items at all.

welp, I guess I cant get any of it back then. thats a bit of a shame. I wanted to keep the starship augments I got as rewards lol
you need to travel to the system that the first rendezvous station is in, then go to the station in that system, go up the stairs where all the npc's are and speak to the big computer looking thing at the back and follow the dialogue
ah ok thank you so much
What should I bring on the expedition I have valves ready should I bring anything else ?
i brought stuff that would make my life easier, fuel for ship, stuff for recharging suit etc, unsure if thats helpful or not, i didnt rlly find i needed much else tbh
would anyone mind giving me a hand with hitchhiker milestone?
Any tech modules ?
nah i didnt bring anything like that just the resources, some nav's, and some salvaged data but i didnt use either of those
Ah ok ty
Is there a rendezvous point in every star system on the expedition route or they start somewhere in the third system or later? π€ Just trying to figure out whether I've missed some already and need to return π
not on every system, the rendezvous point will have the expedition icon on the system
Oh, a special icon in the galaxy map, I see. Thanks!
yeah, if u have the milestone selected you you defo see like a yellow icon on the galaxy map, u will need to stop there and dock at station n interact with computer etc
Great, so it's ahead for me then, nothing missed π
nice
If you're starting the Expedition from a save then I'd bring O2
Hey fellow Travellers, new player here. Anyone else doing the expedition and feeling kinda weird about the hitchhiking milestone? Iβve been playing offline since the start and donβt wanna sneak onto someoneβs corvette uninvited π Looking for a friendly Traveller to give me a lift β or even better, if you need the same milestone we can help each other out! π
The game keeps switching me to the Lost in Space mission. What derelict freighter, there wasn't any in the starting system or anywhere nearby? Is it a bug?
Also the game keeps playing sound of space enemies warping in but nothing happens
just curious but is there a landing ramp that goes down two spaces worth? or is it only one space worth for them all
I managed to get the Hitchhiking milestone finally after being on someone's ship as they were leaving the space station and once I hit the milestone I jumped out the back of their ship and called for an emergency pickup.
What if switch doesnβt get the update before the expedition ends? Do we just likeβ¦ not get it?
question, is the portable refiner supposed to lose all the fuel I put in it inside the corvette while I fly? been losing mats this way during expedition
Same issue
I started a new save recently and it lost it's fuel when I left it to go somewhere else and came back so I don't think it's just on the corvette.
dang the switch still doesnt have the expedition? poor guys
Yo guys i put the plant in the living wall how long before i can harvest??
Depends on the plant, says it on the tooltip
They gonna have to wait quite a bit i think
Oh ok thx
They gonna need to wait more than 6 week lol π
oof. whats the holdup? think its too much for their hardware?
Nintendo.

oof. super villains
if i create a corvette in the expedition will it carry over to my main save?
You can transfer it over for a few thousand
after you finish the Expedition
I think its juste the corvette the prob lol
any way to transfer just the parts?
Dismantle it, throw them into the transfer-terminal
do we have any info on the research milestone rewards for the expedition?
hoping we get some unique corvette parts
that can only be had from completing the expedition
Wdym? π
iirc, the community rewards for how many people complete milestones increase right? like i thought with the bug expedition the more people who completed the expedition the more rewards were unlocked right?
i could be misremembering
Good quesiton, nothing's currently active tho
where is that?
Space station, use the teleporters on the side to your Corvette, use the terminal and deconstruct everything but the basic parts like cockpit, landing gear, etc
wonder if were waiting for nintendo
We'll find out in a month I guess 
For us peeps still waiting on the latest 6.xx update on Switch 2, how does that work with the expedition since itβs already started? Will it be extended to allow us time to play it?
probably. i cant imagine HG cutting you guys off
Definitely hope not. If we don't get additional time, does HG still reruns expeditions at end of year?
iirc this happened with the last expedition i played and they extended it
Ah good to know, thx for the info
it does it for the nuterient processor aswell as the dedicated ship refiner (not just the portable one)
Ok NOW I have officially completed the Expedition after the tedious task of transferring all of my items over to my main save.
HG Servers maybe have problems
Probably but only for some can not everyone of them has that problem
how much time left?
?

See Pins
in #nms-expedition & run !Expedition in #bot-spam
thank you π
Actually most of them lol
Y'all, I'm feeling really overwhelmed in managing which items to bring back over into a regular save
Literally just anything you canβt get normally or have an obscene amount of
does my capital ship transfer with me?
will copying my corvette over to my primary save work?
i notice that there are none of the corvette modules
yes you can copy the corvette over, just shove all parts onto it beforehand, doesn't matter how ugly it looks
how do i participate in this
Go onto the anomaly, behind the nexus there should be the expedition terminus, interact with it then just follow the instructions
oh
You can either start a new save in "expedition" mode or start from an existing save in the Anomaly
i thought it was a discord thing
How long does it roughly take to finish the expedition?
And when you finish it what can you keep?
everything u have turns into units exceot for what u choose to transfer, u can also copy over ur multitool n ship
Depends if you try to speed through it or not
some things turn into nanites i think
Some peeps finished it in 3 hours
Oh, so i cant transfer just normal corvette parts?
You can choose like 20-30 items to bring back to main save
But yeah just put as much stuff on your corvette as possible before ending it
2 minutes into expedition, can barely play because my frames have dropped from the full 60 to 15
Time to tweak your graphics settings.
MP on? If so, off.
CC: @lilac dagger @sterile cedar FYI if you go over the number of spaces allotted for items:
Once you have finished the required milestones but before you click End Expedition, you can put items in the expedition terminal and switch to your primary save in the pause menu to collect them. This can be repeated multiple times.
I did learn that you must complete both the optional quests to be able to do that.
At least that's when it unlocked for me without me pressing End Expedition before the Hitchhiker milestone was done.
You don't need to complete optional milestones, but you do need to collect the rewards if you have completed them
Hm, interesting, I spose it could have changed, I'll test
Well it made me a bit nervous when I did try and it warned me I still had optional milestones to complete so I went and did it anyway just to be safe.
It wouldn't let me put any items in without pressing End Expedition but when I saw that warning I backed out and got it done.
Oh, yeah you just have to ignore the warning and complete it but not end it
I had a feeling but I felt better to be safe then sorry and it was for an extra 500 Quicksliver so it was worth the effort to finally find someone leaving the space station. I had fun jumping out of their moving ship.
Can you do the expedition multiple times and keep getting the quicksilver each time?
is anyone else having trouble pinning the hyperdrive repair instructions? I'm pressing x like the prompt says but nothing happens
Must be a bug with the Expedition. I actually found a dupe glitch for hatching an egg that doesn't happen in the regular save.
any tips for fishing, everytime i land anywhere sentinels spawn and are annoying
I was able to hover with my corvette over a large body of water to fish but I have seen videos stating to dig a tunnel next to a body of water so the sentinels don't see you and if you do it right you can create a small body of water to fish in.
Funny enough I don't recall being able to even pull out my multitool until at one point during the expedition when suddenly I noticed when I pressed the button I was able to use it.
@wispy lily
No gifs in this channel please
Oo very good to know, tyty
can't even send a screencap of my issue ig
Package your technology upgrades to be able to transfer those too.
You can try in #nms-questions maybe it's not as restricted to pictures.
On different saves yes
Fish from your corvette at low altitude or go to a planet with corrupted sentinels, they don't attack you
Sorry but what do corrupted sentinels do? I havenβt seen them until the expedition, Iβve been staying in my little corner of the galaxy.
Can someone ferry me about for a few mins? I dont have friends and am going for the hitch-hiker milestone but nexus is not treating me well rn sadly, too much afk to hitch hike organically
thanks ! that works
They are (usually) on Dissonant planets (will be purple text saying "Dissonant" on the planet's description). They will just fly around and leave you alone until you attack them. Though you will need to kill some eventually for a milestone.
I thought we weren't able to fish on the corvette or was that a bug
When I tried I couldn't pull my fishing rod out
6.04 allows you to use your multitool in the corvette
Cool. I just built a little fishing base on a dissonant planet in the expedition and they didnβt seem to care. Thanks.
It's kinda buggy though. I used the terrain manipulator from my ship and weird stuff happened
I wonder if we will get a short halloween event like last year.
Thanks
Guys how do i know i completely explored a derelict?
do you have to start a new save to do the expedition?
No u can start it from the anomalie in the main
Yh the big ball u spawn in space
ok
Do the sublight thrusters not count towards the total?
Okay nevermind...It just took like a whole minute to register
wooo finally done with the expedition.
So i just finished. Should I hatch the pet now? Can I take it to my main save? Can I breed it?
whelp. ngl. that expedition was pretty darn boring. But loving the corvette stuff.
Can I ride with someone in their Corvette ship for the hitchhiking quest
just go to the anomoly and ask thats how i got it
This was first expedition I've done in awhile. And it felt quick which was nice, I just want my corvette stuff lol
Iβm looking for a walker brain
just get an economy scanner you dont need it
i sold mine on accident. if you use the economy scanner pirate systems will show up as a skull on the map
Ok
You get one from the previous milestone too
But yes its not needed. I still have mine
This it the previous and itβs reward
i accidentally sold mine so just got an economy scanner. could also ask at the anomoly if someone would take you
Guess im mistaken. I got it from a milestone tho. But its only 300 nanites at the space anamoly to get economy scanner
Alright thank you much yβall are awesome sauce
!
Thanks
np. kill two birds with one stone, hitchhiker and pirate system
Stardiving was fun. Turns out the planet I chose I didn't nee to be all the way in the upper atmosphoere because I ended up falling for nearly 5 minutes before seeing the ground.
You need three green check marks saying you collected the Crew Manifest, Captain's Log and created the reward at the last terminal. If you got these items but the milestone did not complete, you need to turn off multiplayer, leave any groups you are in, restart your game, and likely buy a new scanner at the dealer in the back of regular space stations, bottom floor to the right (it will cost 8 million units)
If you started from an existing save, the egg won't be transferrable, nor will the pet. When you switch back you can claim it again at the QuickSilver vendor.
Ty
So Iβm looking with the economy scanner and Iβm not saying anything that says pirate on it
Keep looking for a skull.
It will look like this
This was a fun expedition. Even if da little grindy. Really helped me get back in the game and fall for this game all over again. Cheers!
Ok thank you
π₯Ή
But.. I think I might have messed up on being able to send items back to primary.. got my final rewards and the box wonβt let me put things in. Should I βend the expeditionβ?
No.
Maybe try relogging? Click all the milestones to make sure you got the rewards? Have you done the optional ones? (You shouldn't have to but I want to make sure there's not something buggy happening)
I clicked it anyways. Reread it and after you end it you can begin transferring things back over to the primary!
Help, so first I haven't played nms in at least a year, now I decided to do expedition, where do I get the BP for a portable refiner?
Wait, you clicked End Expedition at the terminal and it still let you transfer stuff?
Hover your ship in the upper atmosphere of a planet and jump out. You should tag the milestone so you get a countdown for how long it's been and make sure to save your jetpack for just before you land.
Puls to a planet and drive down until you get the "entering atmosphere" message, stop, jump out of the back of your corvette and jetpack until you hit 60 seconds. You can make an Orbital Uplink before you jump so you can warp to the space station after hitting 60 so you don't have to wait the full fall and have to summon your ship.
You just have it
Could someone dm me what to do new player new to expeditions. Iβm close to the purge mission tho. So I have a good bit of knowledge except for expeditions
Ok I was trying it from space I thought in planet it will be too close
The Expedition automatically unlocks several blueprints your don't normally have when you start a normal save.
You can read my pinned messages for some tips and tricks, Otherwise just jump in and have fun
O, I feel dumb... im super rusty
Yeah after that it let me begin putting items in. I think because I still had the optional mission to ride in anotherβs corvette.
I guess it was smart of me to have stared a new save when 6.0 dropped so I got to be reminded of a bunch of stuff.
Iiiinteresting, hm. Ugh, looks like I need to update my tip yet again π
Yep that sounds like what happened to me only I didn't finalize ending it until I got all my optionals done which in my case was just Hitchhiking.
Yeah I was like whatever concerning that one lol
I really wanted to carry over all those corvette parts I got so I wanted to be sure it would let me go back and forth and not lock me out with only a single transfer.
Yep same lol
Ready to get to buildinβ
I made a few modifications to me existing corvette and the one I carried over but I need more parts still so next time I get on I'm going scrap hunting again.
You can
the where saying you can't?
ok, on phase 2 of expedition and just built an upgraded model. I added the ramp and it is blocked:
what do I do?
Delete the part that's blocking?
it is holding up the two sides. would it break the ship?
One way to find out. If it does, delete those parts too. If that breaks, keep deleting and rebuilding.
Can anyone let me ride in their Corvette so I can finish this task please?
I finished already so I can't go back and help you but if you can just climb on board as someone is leaving the space station it won't take long to get the milestone. I jumped out and did an emergency rescue call for my ship once I hit the target distance.
You start expedition at the anomaly right?
Unless you want to start a new save on the expedition, yes
Thanks ! π
are 98% of all planets have aggresive sentinels? also, is there some kind of bug where corvettes fly kinda normal then go super fast and slow down again?
For the former, yes, it's a flag they added to this expedition. To avoid them you can go to a planet with Corrupted Sentinels (most Dissonant planets). For the latter, no idea.
what happens if ive completed the expedition on a fresh account, but want to do it again on my real save?
will i lose my real saves progress π
You will not. It's like a rogue-lite extension of your real save. When it's over you go back to your primary save.
will I be able to keep what I get from it? I havent fully closed my last expedition on my fresh save so I dont know what will happen
(Keep the corvette parts I mean)
Almost all of it, yes.
Really... So I start it through the Anomoly, Do it all, and i get to keep most of the tool slots , ship parts, and stuff from it?
Yeah you can send stuff back to your primary save, then once you're on your primary save you can copy your ship and multitool over
Wait huh?! How do i send stuff back and copy my stuff over :O
After you complete the milestones and collect all the rewards you'll have a chance to put items in the expedition terminal on the anomaly. Then when you end the expedtion that stuff will be available in the terminal on your primary save, and you'll also be able to copy your ship and multitool there
Ohhhh Okay, Thanks!!!
@solemn bane If i get the option to copy my multitool and ship, can i take for free or will it swap with my current one?
All I get at the anomaly is the prompt to start a new expedition?
But I already completed it in the other save
You buy them for nanites and they are added to your collection
You can't transfer stuff between saves. If you want to copy stuff over you have to start the expedition on the Anomaly from an existing save.
Are you serious?? Ffffff I thought you went from main menu to start a new expedition
i messed up so bad
if you have a friend you can transfer stuff to them from one save and get it from them on the other but it's just the stuff that can go into inv and it's tedious
do bear in mind though that all expedition rewards (end phase and end expd ones) can be claimed once on every save you make, you just go to the quicksilver bot at the anomaly for those.
Good excuse to play it again. I've done it six times π Also yeah that ^
It was fun but I aint got time for that!!
I have hardly enough time to play as it is
heh no worries... know that you know the tricks, you won't have trouble getting piles of corvette parts
Might just keep my expedition save and start fresh from there
That's the only legit way to have the Orbital Uplink pattern, so that's what I did.
Apparently if you do the optional final sign in mission during the expedition it removes it permanently? Intended behaviour or bug?
The final mission where you transmit the blueprint details, bringing the whole adventure to a circle and the cycle repeats for some other player technically (really liked that, but taking away me blueprint is absolute BS π)
Oof, I bet that's intended. I never did the milestone because I play them offline. So your choice is 1200 quicksilver or the Orbital Uplink blueprint I guess.
Man I thought that was a really cool story beat with how you get a random ass transmission with the blueprint when your ship is broken in the beginning and you end by transmitting to very same blueprint details at the end, helping someone else.
Felt so warm and tingly, kicked my feet even perchance perhaps
Me fucking blueprint πππ
Idk if I have it over on my main save didn't check yesterday
Hm, I just realized Dissonant planets may not actually be Dissonant planets after you're done with the expedition, so if you put a base down or whatever to get a cool interceptor, it may not be there.
Kinda felt like there were a shitload of Dissonant planets all of a sudden compared to the regular game. I guess there were π
.... why did my interior modules in my corvette just disappear? i got my nipnip seeds back but the living walls are just gone? and so is my faecium
Welcome to No Man's Sky, where shit just happens.

sigh i just want to live on my ship, touching down to check out planets
corvettes seem like a cool way to do that but if its just gonna erase parts of the ship i guess not
Bugs are expected. They've been tackling them on the experimental branch. Corvettes solve a lot of problems for me, mainly never having to land, so I'll take the good with the bad I guess.
Left red button, teleports you down
Total game changer
Are the rewards worth doing the expedition?
People find them lacking. I like the experience of the aggressive sentinels and building a ship with the parts they give you. There's a unique pet at the end. Probably the best thing in the expedition is a craftable teleporter they give you that teleports you to the space station for 30 chromatic metal, but to keep it you need to start a new save on the expedition.
What is this unique pet ?
Look like a robot tardigrade
Anyone have a sentinel chart?
The previous milestone should give you one, assuming you didn't complete it before patch 6.04
I did complete it before .04
In that case you can kill sentinels to get them, or go to the Anomaly/space station and look for bases near a pillar, or you can farm corvette parts in salvage scrap to get them
Why would I wanna salvage corvette parts?
The salvage scrap drops Sentinel Boundary Maps
Won't it be a super low drop
I wouldn't say super low. I get them more than I'd like.
Anyway you have three options, pick whichever you like. Well 4 if you count waiting around for people to give you one.
How do I know if a base is near one?
Just look at the names
I did the Resistance milestone and I've still got the blueprint for the Orbital Uplink, I'd thought it'd gotten removed as well but I still have it
nice
It might be buried amongst other recipes you have
It would be cool if Expedition specific blueprints could go back to your main save, but it would probably add a lot of bloat to the crafting menu if there wasn't a specific tab added for them
Switched back to main save as soon as I completed the exp, it is joever regardless for me ig
I've been holding off on going back, just in case some of my friends start it up
I wonder if I can slap in a thousand uplinks using that goatfungus editor in my inventory slot π
If you're save editing you can just unlock the recipe
Can't play with friends if you end it? What happens if you invite on a normal save and visit the anomaly?
Would the recipe be even listed?
Expedition people can only see other expedition people
Am i supposed to destroy it?
If u transfer them yes
Rewards you earn by completing all the milestones in a phase are usually account-wide unlocks that can be collected at the QuickSilver vendor on any save once unlocked.
If you started the expedition from an existing save via the expedition terminal on the Anomaly, other rewards and items you collect during the course of the expedition can be sent back to your primary save via the expedition terminal once you have completed all the milestones but before you click End Expedition. Once the items have been added to the terminal, you can either click End Expedition to end the expedition and return to your primary save (can only be done once) OR you can save and switch to your primary save via the pause menu and collect your items from the terminal (this can be repeated multiple times). Not all items can be transferred (such as eggs). You will NOT keep anything you learned during the course of the expedition, but you will keep any bases you made.
If you started the expedition from the new game screen, you will keep everything you collected.
New copy/paste
π
Alrightyyyy where is the terminal located?
Aboard the Anomaly, behind the Nexus to the right
Alrighty
If I joined a normal save with my expedition subsave, It'd probably put me back in the primary for a bit as I haven't claimed all my rewards yet. I do know that if I join someone who's in an expedition it'll put me in a new expedition save if I don't have any active ones
Actually I need to update that copy/paste because this expedition has the optional milestones which adds some complexity. Need a damn flowchart
Any specific cargo to bring?
Warp cells, and a hyperdrive upgrade too if you've got spare change
Nah, you get everything you need from milestones. Don't sell the Walker Brain or the Sentinel Boundary Map
Or the above is also fine ;D
Found that out when I tried joining a friend who never went back to their primary after the expedition they'd been doing ended
How long doses it take to complete
4 hrs if speed running, 9 if chilling
Between 3 and 30 hours
Holy shit π
Look up "Jason plays" on YouTube he has a video walkthrough
Closer to 3 if you have any idea what you're doing, lol
Well shii ion knowπ
And yeah following a guide will also put you closer to 3
Will I be able to use the corvette after done done
You can copy the corvette once main side
Using nanites
Don't remember how many nanites
But thousands
Did I seriously forget that in my copy/paste?
Figures.
Throughout the expedition you'll also get a new multitool, you can copy both multitool and the corvette ship for nanites
Oooo alrighty
Can I not just copy the modules seperate?
How can I transfer the mercury?
If you started from an existing save, it will just follow you to your primary save. If it's a new save, you can't.
I got the plasma starship trail can i use it for my corvette?
After I've done all the expedition stuff is there anything else to do?
my friend is in a regular save game (no longer in expedition). Can they still help me with the Hitchhiker milestone?
I'm pretty sure different game modes can't play with each other
Heya! Seems that I have huge problems so far with the expedition. Aside from the fact that my game is really bugged, I donΒ΄t know, what I need to do to find an advanced mine laser, and what I need to do to be able to reach the anomaly. Happy about any help!
you dont need the advanced mining laser to complete the expedition
and i had to go 'offline' to fix some bugs with the expedition so that may be something you'll have to do
aka turn off multiplayer
Looking for an answer mostly, bc Google gives 500 diff ones, I just started playing for the first time like a week ago, started on exp 19 , I do not have a normal mode save, when exp 19 ends, will I lose everything I've done? Can I carry it over somehow?
Did you start a new save when you started the expedition? Or did you go to a terminal in the Anomaly to start the expedition from an existing save?
The answer depends on that.
New save, as it was my first save, and still my only save
In that case once you're done it will convert to a normal save and you will keep everything
And get to continue the game from a certain point in the main story
Okay cool, I was seeing stuff online about losing your Corvette/multi tools/mats and I wanted to check , because this stuff takes so long to grind out , I didn't even wanna attempt to keep going on that save if I lose it all
Do the systems I've discovered and planetary bases stay as well?
Afaik yes
I think the "losing stuff" comments online are for if you start a new save but want the stuff you gathered onto a different, pre-existing save.
Btw welcome to No Man's Sky, hope you're having fun!
Thank you! I found a dope lush, it's tagged as aggressive sentinel patrols without a single sentinel present, and discovered a bunch of new species and stuff that I get to name, I adopted a flying mini dragon companion right before I had to get offline for a bit haha
I've done all the phases, am I done?
yes, if you want to do the optional milestones for additional (quicksilver) reward, you can do that too, but it's not required.
Ight ima cash in this one then
You on expedition I'd so cani do hitchhiking
I am still on my expd save but I don't have multiplayer (no psplus), sorry!
Oof
you can try asking in #nms-lfg-or-trades too, just be patient (low traffic channel)

Guys i try to hop in my corvette i got launch in outerspace lmao
Is there a faster way yo get the walker brain then just increased the wanted lvl???
one milestone gives it as a reward
check the pins in here for list of milestones/rewards if that's faster than looking at your phases one at a time
But i think i already got that milestone and use the walker brain
Iβm at phase 4 already and just need to sign to the fifth and go to a pirate system and the emergency warp unit but other than that i done everything
so what is an expedition?
lol
time-limited gamemode with specific missions and goals that give rewards
How long it depends if that a completely new save or your new in nms or if you have a pretty play kinda a lil bit already
So could be a few days or few hour or just one or 2 π
Anyone kind enough to help me get that walker brain or give it to me straight π₯²ππ»

How is the planet feature called where you can excavate corvette modules? Salvageable Scrap? Or that's the one you use to unlock base parts?
Salvageable scarp
Is there anything specific I should bring from main save into this expedition?
Nah, you get everything you need. Just don't sell the Walker Bain or Sentinel Boundary Map they give you.
Yep slows u down tremendously otherwiseβ¦
why
oh, swapping. You'll only swap if you've got the max amount of ships, otherwise it's just added to your ship inventory. Also you can store ships on your freighter.
Money
Unless u get really lucky and fall on a planet with a walker already spawned
YESSSS I FINISHED THE EXP π₯Ή
The planet I started on, I found some gravitino balls, collected them. By the time I ran away from the sentinels I found another batch. This repeated until I had about 1-1.5 million units worth of them. Melee+jetpack hits hard
Same, though I killed them
Bit dangerous on very early game, but highly lucrative. Well played!
Do u still need someone to do it with?
I need to do it too and I'm still on my expedition save
I did the same but went up to 8 million before running out of backpack space. I did create the uplink device first so I could escape at the end.
What to take on expedition?
Check pins. Chromatic metal would be useful; sentinel boundary map will save you a lot of time
sneintel boundary map is now given as a rewardfor a milestone so it's not needed to bring one
Oh, oops. Someone told me yesterday or so and I forgot, sorry. π
You should probably change that bio ngl
dude someone is putting bases at every copper deposit so that noone can collect them
guess i have to go offline
does shootinh buried salvage from the corvette actually work? its not for me
It worked nicely for me.
Can anyone help..
On expedition 4 phase 2 βan Indelible stainβ it wants βcursed dustβ I been looking everywhere galaxy after galaxy.. it mentions worms I have found warms nothing
I got all my parts that way
Well, it's tricky to help on past expeditions... some had planets / systems changed so they could work. This is the kind of stuff we would get naturally while doing the expedition back then. You may try searching for "infested" biomes, but I'm not sure...
I take it you are using cwmonkey's setup to run past expeditions? The cursed dust is a resource depost, if a planet has worms in ithat expedition, i t should have cursed dust as a resource,all the rendezvous planets should have it, if you don't see it then something is likely broken about the setup and I would report it to the maintainer
there have baen a number of recent updates and patchs, any one of them could have borked things
you can report the bases via the quick menu and then you'll be able to get your business done
Will the curated dust show up as a product in a system scan?
And yeah Iβm using his setup have the most recent files with any patches needed
yeah it should be listed like uranium or any other thing
Ok Iβll keep
Looking I wana say I might have saw it on an early planet
yeah I did mention that
Oops, I'm blind, sorry. π (Redundant message deleted)
I have a question when it comes to this expedition. Will i be able to make another corvette later down the road once i unlock more modules
If I decide to switch out from the expedition to go back to my main will I loss any progress? Can I just go back and forth ?
guys my pc just crashed and i lost 4 hours of progress on the expedition. is there anyway to get that back or do i need to redo all of it
it says my last save was 2 minues ago but its put me back where i was 4 hours ago
Nothing should stop you as far as I know. But for the expedition itself, just to stay on the safe side -- concentrate on your current corvette. Once you finish it, guess you can venture into new projects π
Thats my main focus is the corvette. I just didnt know if i can unlock more and add more
Oh, you certainly can yes.
Can i leave excess parts in the corvette workshop cache and nobody else have access to it
Guuuyys, I finished the expedition a while ago... But then I got back to my main save (I started from main and came back to main), can I just transfer the exp rewards to my inventory or smth?
I don't know how to get things, and I hatched the pet egg before going back to my main save, so I basically don't have it
Yes
You can claim the rewards form the QS vendor at the anomaly
Not sure about the egg tho
i haven't played with the autophages much, how do i find the code to unlock the interface in the harmonic camp for the expedition?
So.. corvettes are only built around there 3 weapons? I have cyclotron ballista normal module. The issue is if I install any of these 3 to boost damage it automatically adds an extra slot for that weapon, occupying limited slots
You mean the one where you need to input 3 sigils? It gives you a hint when you analyze the console. It's math
OH didn't think to scan the console, ty!
Not scan, just interact with the console. There will be like 2 options if I remember correctly? One is to enter sigils. The other is to get the hint. After you unlocked it you need to interact with it again: it will give you an option: unlock sentinel hand weapon terminal OR locate a signal
example:
No longer. Found some one in game. Thanks and all the best.
Anyone know what corvette parts (if any) I should priorize taking back to the normal save
Any that you canβt buy with credits if you want
Kk
How do I piss off the sentinels while in space? I need to blow up two more of the tin cans to progress.
They will show up when you warp once, otherwise you can shoot the space station
it was a pretty good expedition overall
how long does it take for the plants on the living wall in the corvett to grow?
I need to grow 8 of them
Frostwort takes 12 minutes
You can google it and divide by 5 (for this expedition)
Why divide by 5?
They grow faster in expeditions?
In this one they do "FarmPlantsTimerMul": 0.20000000298023224,
Has anyone's Living Wall just disappeared after being built, saved, seeded? π
Yep, I saw someone mention that yesterday. You can report it here:

So i just stared the expedition. I nee chromatic metal to make a beacon or a refiner to make pure ferrite.
I dont havethe recipie to mae a refiner. so im stuck.
can I reset the expedition?
You should have the recipe. Post a screenshot if not.
check base building menu, I think the first tab
And would you believe that I have been playing this game for several years.... I found it π€¦ββοΈ
everyone is entitled to a brain fart now and then
hey fellas
i need some help
its not completing even though im on a verdant planet
Turn off multiplayer, leave group, restart
im not in a group and mp is already off
Is there an active expedition right now?
Oh and end any missions you are on from the mission board on your ship
is this where i should be to ask if anyone wants to play?
Feel free to only do the steps that apply.
Probably
i have no missions too
For some reason the screen shows "Expedition 13 Redux: Adrift - Complete" for me
Feel free to only do the steps that apply.
You on Switch by chance?
No, PC
Oh wait, 13? Are you offline?
Do you have an "End Expedition" button at the terminal or something like that?
I have some items in slots, maybe those prevent the screen from updating
Oh, wait, it says "new expedition is available" there
Take the stuff out
Yeah, it will take a while π
Iβm traveling to dissonant systems but canβt find any dissonant planets
Weird, they are plentiful. Sure you're scanning all of them?
Iβm scanning the planets and it says so
I think there's literally one or more in each Rendezvous system
Also others have discovered them already and none say dissonant
I don't think those names are connected?
I.e. dissonant system might not have a planet and planet might be not in a dissonant system?
Itβs a dissonant planet if it says (dissonant planet) right
It'll say DissonantDissonance detected in purple at the bottom
They are. If a Dissonant system doesn't have a Dissonant planet that would be a bug, and incredibly rare to find two in a row
What was the issue?
I thought instead of like βhumid planetβ it had to say dissonant planet
Wasted so many warps
Hm. I didn't finished the original Adrift expedition (not the redux) because markers brought me into dissonant system without dissonant planets3
(And I started the game first time for years at the moment, so, I had no idea what to look for)
That was eons ago so I can't speak to it
β¦.im seeing literally NO life whatsoever for me to scan on this dissonant planet
Well that's possible I guess. I usually start with water.
You can find a planet by using a device, whatever it called
Well, like I said I think every Rendezvous system has one, and they all have life as far as I can remember.
It drops from sentinel carries, I think?
Almost every system is Dissonant in this expedition
I yet to start it, soo... π
Or maybe just like 70%
How much time until it finishes, actually?
Weeks
Thanks. I don't have a timer there
About how long does it take to do an expedition?
Depends on the expedition. The current one and the previous one took me about 3-4 days solo
Oh cool thatβs not too bad
There might've been some longer ones in the past but 3-4 days is a good bet if you can complete the objectives efficiently
I would say between 3 and 30 hours, depending on your level. Probably closser to 3 if you've played the game before.
This expedition is easy, but you can get hung up on stuff (like bugged sentinels)
Do they feel repetitive to do? Or are they different when they come out?
This one is pretty different, since it's about a new ship type
Sorry, havenβt done one yet. Just been playing the base game again after a long break. So much new stuff!
A lot yeah especially the latest update
there are going to be some "filler" milestones which aren't really related to anything, but there are always some that are specifi to the expedition too
True. There are optional milestones you can choose to complete too
Do I have to complete the phases in-order? I can complete milestones out of order, could I complete phase 4 ahead of everything else and then just speedrun my way to each station, theoretically?
It would be difficult to find the systems out of order. I am pretty sure you can't complete Rendezvous out of order
do them in any order you like, but note that often rewards from one are useful for another
Out of order is ok, but I found it easier to do in order
I did a noumber of phase 2, 3 in the starter system for example
I've unintentionally completed stuff from later phases
nothing wrong with that
can you own more than one corvette during the expedition? had someone asking me but i only used one during mine
nope
Hm, actually you can't claim one, I never tried making a second one. Gonna try it.
oh okay thanks
Can I transfer expedition corvette back to mainsave?
If you started from an existing save, yes, for nanites
Oh, cool!
wtf do I do if my ship glitches underground
Make an Orbital Uplink or summon it
reload the last restore point, or try crafting an orbital upilink and heading to the nearest space station to get unstuck, or move a ways away and call your ship to you
or that
am I supposed to upgrade my corvette class in the expedition? I'm getting a lot of inventory upgrades that I can't apply to tech slots
Not necessary, the inventory upgrades can be used just on cargo
^
- You can expand your corvette's tech slots by removing as many parts that cause tech modules to appear in the tech slots as you can, filling your tech slots up with any cheap tech modules, then putting all your corvette parts back on. It will expand your tech slots permanently.
I'm notably having issues finding a "lush" planet.
Is "lush" considered a category that many different kinds of planets fall into, or is it just one very specific kind of planet?
Any planet that has Star Bulbs as the plant
Following up, there is no "create" option in this expedition either, so you are limited to only the corvette you make at the start. No other ships, no other corvettes.
okay cool tyvm
Okay so how does this work?
I finished the Expedition on my save
I'm at the terminal
How do I put my ship/tool in it?
The ship and tool can be copied when you are on your primary save. You can get there from the pause menu or by ending the expedition - assuming you started the expedition from an existing save
You can manually copy it to your primary save for nanites. All the tech will cary over, but no cargo
So, what does this Echo Locator do, exactly? I did a few things out of order and ended up with it, and I'd like to know what it does before I go ahead and use it.
Finds Harmonic Bases
(For the sentinel multitool milestone)
Ah, so it's basically a free encounter, got it.
I found a derelict freighter on my way to the multi-tool, how do I land on it? or can I not do so at this point?
If it was a random encounter, don't worry about it
Am I not able to obtain other ships besides the freighter and the Corvette during expedition? Also, I have the base computer unlocked, even crafted one, but can't get the option to place it down on a planet while I'm landed , like it doesn't show on my build menu?
No other ships.
You may be too close to your corvette to build. Or you're on someone else's base.
Not even the ones I find? I was very close to my Corvette, but I was on a planet that I had just discovered and named haha
Not even ones you find.
Proximity to your ship triggers the ship building menu, even on the ground.
Ahh okay, ty
Also that's kinda crap on the ships, I wanted to get a sentinel ship, just gotta wait till I finish exp and go to a normal save I assume?
Ha, if you're very, very lucky. My planet turned into a non-dissonant planet when I converted to a normal save. I'm pretty sure in addition to the aggressive sentinels, there are TONS more Dissonant planets than in non-expedition play.
I still don't fully understand what dissonant means, and all that with the sentinels, I know they're annoying af when I'm trying to farm resources though haha
It means purple stuff and crashed sentinel interceptors.
Ahh okay , ty
Is the sentinel pillar the place where I turn off aggresive sentinels?
That or kill every wave of them, with the Walker at the end.
so if I understand correctly, I would build a corvette with the minimum amount of parts from the first tab (landing gear, reactor, etc).
then fill all the empty slots with whatever tech modules I have
then edit my corvette with all the extra parts
then remove all the tech modules, so that the corvette parts don't take up my tech slots. right?
Yeah that sounds right.
what does the expedition mean by mapping a system?
Going there maybe? Post the context
Am I doing this tech grouping correctly?
Depends, are you having fun?
Try to bring the health mods together
Yes, just no idea what I'm doing haha
when is the next redux going to be for expedition? I want to do the expedition 12 π
If you put the like-technology next to each other they get bonuses. Supercharged slots should be reserved for stuff you want to make stronger. Start with those and build around them
The borders go from black two white when they are next to like-technology
If the x class movement upgrade is better than the b class swap them
The expeditions for this year will (most likely) be reduxed at the end of this year. 12 will (most likely) not be reduxed again this year.
If the b class is a unique upgrade i think those don't really get much adjacency so its best to use them to buff other things? Not sure though
Though looks like you're on Steam so you can check my profile to be able to play expeditions whenever you want offline.
Link in my profile.
if the rewards are unlocked on one of my saves, will they be on all of my saves just like the ones from corvette, for redeeming on other characters I have when I go back online?
How do you get the stardiving goal? I tried getting barely into atmosphere and it took me way under a minute to land
Hit the jet pack all the way down. Take an Orbital Uplink so you don't have to fall all the way once you hit 60s
Ahhhh ty
Hi. Can we craft the Orbital Uplink in normal save?
Only if you started a new save on the expedition. It won't follow you back if you started it from an existing save.
oh! ok! Thanks!
That sucks π
You can't send crafted ones back to your primary save either. Sad because it's easily the best part of this expedition.
Technically it was only created because you can't fly normal ships but I can see how it can be useful.
yea i saw that I was unable to and I thought maybe I had to buy it from the anomaly or something. "sigh". But thats ok. DO you know if we can give it to a friend if we make a new save?
That I don't know.
Is there a way to more effectively travel to the next checkpoint? Iβm burning warp cells trying to get to each next destination
You can get tech modules from stations to boost your range, you can also get corvette parts that will do it. You can put them in supercharged slots
ok ty
for the hitchiking mission, can I just board any random ship and wait for the pilot to fly off?
yep
It's pretty flaky though
I had fun going to each location regardless of how many warp cells I went though. I did take the time to harvest a ton of needed resources to make them a few times though.
Oh yeah I did that for my Hitchhiking milestone. Took me forever to find someone actually leaving. Once I hit my target I opened up their doors and jumped out then did an Emergency Pickup call for my ship and flew back to the space station.
Could have used an Orbital Uplink as well. I even use them when I enter a new system because I can't be bothered to wait for the time it takes to dock and walk to the main area, lol.
I did not think about that. I did have an extra one I had made but I had left it in my Storage Container.
Besides it was fun leaping out in the cold of space. :D
I keep a big bunch of Chromatic Metal on me now
Itβs saying for corvette parts that I canβt add anymore on?
wait, is hitchhiking optional?
Oh yeah I started checking every space station trade terminal for Chromatic Metal after I found myself with little copper left to make it with.
Yes it is optional but you get 500 Quicksilver if you do it.

That is very good to know.
So itβs kind of a bug?
In fact that will help me with my issue with my current corvette design where I don't have enough slots to install the upgrades to go to the colored star systems.
Maybe, I have no idea if they plan to fix it or not
Is this things only purpose to sell it?
yep
Am I restricted from exocraft during expedition as well?
Never tried. I wouldn't think so, you can tame pets.
Wait is that how you get them? I haven't been able to figure it out
No you learn them on the Anomaly. I just meant you can ride stuff, so why not exocrafts
I just now finished buying all of the research at the anomaly that can be bought for nanites, just need frig modules and salvaged data for the rest of the unlocks, I just can't figure out how/where to build the exocraft
Exocrafts are learned at the base parts terminal for salvaged data. You open the build menu to build them once you have them. You may need to be away from your ship a good distance to do it, not sure.
Oh okay the geobays?
yep
Ty for all the help, I'm brand new to this game, and I only have one friend I play with occasionally on it, and he knows less than me π and Google/reddit had been entirely useless
Help would be soooo appreciated for an old dude here... im doing the expedition and I am doing the derelict freighter mission. yesterday i had to end my wandering abord the derelict freighter early. And now I cant find the derelict freighter. Please tell me a fix. Thank you!
Go to a regular space station, bottom floor to the right in the back. There is a dealer that will sell you one for 8 million units.
thanks for the fast answer but... sell me a derelict F.? or guidance to it?
Yeah a locator.. thing, I forget the name of it
Emergency Signal Scanner
cheers for the help mate!
ahhh thanks
yall i feel like iβm warping endlessly for the first rendezvous 
Anyone on and willing to let me ride in your Corvette ? Need to finish that xhallenge
Shouldn't be more than a couple. Do you see the yellow icon you are warping to? If not you're off-course somehow. I'd return to the first system (Killur VII) and start over.
You can theoretically just jump in one you see
In standing in one now haha
Good luck!
He went back, and ported to a diff station so it would boot me, rip
this is what happens when i decide to free roam the star chart π tyty that worked!
Itβs taking me like probably closer to 10 to get to the next point. Am i doing it wrong? I goto the galaxy map and choose the mission option and follow the line
Check the vendors in the space stations and buy hyperdrive upgrades. Put them in your supercharged slot(s) and put the rest next to each other for an extra boost.
A couple of the jumps are pretty far in this expedition
But I was able to do all of them in one jump with a number of hyperdrive upgrades (including two corvette parts that I found out boosted hyperdrive range)
Boy I sure do hope they give the switch version of the game some extra time to do the expedition
Or we're not getting in at all at this rate
Remember that time y'all got the expedition but it was too broken to finish so they had to extend it a week or so, heh.
Let's hope it's like that again lol
(including two corvette parts that I found out boosted hyperdrive range)
Do some parts give bonuses without listing them in the build menu?
Yyyyyymaybe, let me go check
No, I just didn't realize it til I placed it and saw the tech it made, lol.
So the Zenith-Class Reactor adds hyperdrive range
Ah, gotcha
I sorta wish some of the parts that weren't core components gave bonuses, like the wing tips or whatever giving maneuverability
Yeah barebones ships are real ugly
They don't have to be massive bonuses either, just like a couple percent, idk.
Make me feel like it's doing something instead of me technically throwing away millions on looks (bc those parts sell)
Can i still transfer stuff over to my expedition even when i alr started it ?
nope
need to travel in someones corevetter ... Someone have time to help me with that task from the expedition?
Same here, still need it done?
Does anyone have some spare time to help me complete the Hitchhiking milestone on phase 3 of the expedition?
Same handle in game as my Discocrd name
are you only able to get another ship after completion of the expedition?
All ship trading is banned by the Sentinels in the expedition, so yes.
Any chance you can help me complete the Hitchhiking Milestone really quick?
are we not allowed to buy regular starships during expedition??
Not allowed any other ships by any means
sadge i wanted to buy ships and scrap them so i could upgrade my own corvette no? or only way to "upgrade" corvette is by building more stuff??
You can farm Salvageable Scrap for upgrade parts or buy ship tech modules as usual.
buy ship tech modules?
I'm very new to the game but have completed the recent exped, do the old ones become available to complete again?
Yep, at the space station
Not through normal means, but if you're on PC there's a workaround.
I'm on PS5.
Well, the expeditions from this year will be reduxed at the end of the year as well. They sometimes bring older ones back but it's rare.
Oh I see. How many have there been this year?
hey has anyone had a problem with the expestion part where you have to cook food in the nutrstion processor and theres runaway mold stuck in the out put ?
I think we're on the third? I expected 4 new ones but I dunno now. Might be a shorter, older one.
Turn multiplayer off and relog.
Turn multiplayer off and relog.
nope didnt work
You turned multiplayer off?
yes
its already off
ive never used it before
first time
and it has stuff stuck in it
greyed out
un lootable
hm, I thought I remembered that was the fix. Try moving the nutrient processor to another wall
Guys, copy corvette before or after expedition completion?
lol im here for the same question, also can we keep modifying and collecting new modules after ending the expedition or no?
You can switch to your primary save in the pause menu at any time and copy your ship from the expedition to your primary save. You can also copy your ship at any time after you have ended the expedition completely.
You can keep modifying your ship after copying it to your primary save, yes. This is only if you started the expedition from an existing save. Ships cannot be copied to other saves.
Wonderful, thx
yes
cool, thanks!
had to go out for a bit but can do now
LOL...I just had to pick a ship to hitchhike on where they went to the deserted freighter. π Now I'm sitting in the ship waiting for him to come back. π
I checked my save, yeah the uplink blueprint is gone lol
Redesigned the corvette and lost tech π emergency warp conflict detector etc all gone if you redesign from scratch
What do you mean "from scratch"?
Hm, I thought I did that before, but maybe I left one
I did reduce the total number of habs and walkway so I guess that reduced the number of slots, anyways, something else to grind for I guess
How do I increase slots for ship?
In general
I do expeditions.
Otherwise it's probably doing missions and scrapping ships.
Also this:
- You can expand your corvette's tech slots by removing as many parts that cause tech modules to appear in the tech slots as you can, filling your tech slots up with any cheap tech modules, then putting all your corvette parts back on. This will expand your tech slots permanently.
still looking for someone to fly on the corevete task
ok I just jumped on ride from someone leaving
for my expedition ship should i use the starship upgrade station? does upgrading class from c to b do anything? and is upgrading storage for 45 million creds worth it ??? (does not seem so?)
Upgrading your ship class will increase the number of tech slots you have, but there is a method for expanding your tech slots for very little cost:
- You can expand your corvette's tech slots by removing as many parts that cause tech modules to appear in the tech slots as you can, filling your tech slots up with any cheap tech modules, then putting all your corvette parts back on. This will expand your tech slots permanently.
Upgrading your ship class will also make space battles harder unless you get the weapon/shield upgrades to keep up with the enemy scaling that will happen.
45 million credits seems like a lot for an extra slot. You can get inventory upgrade modules from missions sometimes, and scrapping other ships (when you're done with the expedition).
ok ty
also is there any way to get inventory increase modules as an item? besides just buying the upgrade directly from space stations
These will come as items:
You can get inventory upgrade modules from missions sometimes, and scrapping other ships (when you're done with the expedition).
no my inventory not ship inventory
Oh, suit inventory. Well you can buy Drop Pod coordinate maps, that will give you one suit inventory upgrade. Probably missions will reward them sometimes. I usually do expeditions, but that's not in the regular game (requires a workaround on PC).
ty ty
is there a good planet to get the multi tool from harmonic camp?
You should have gotten an Echo Locator from a previous milestone. You can use that in a Dissonant system to find a harmonic camp on a dissonant world.
oh thats what that does ,ty
maybe stupid question if I copy my corvette from expedition to main save will it keep the storage unit contents too ?
i finished the expedition but i didnt keep the corvette. Is that intended?
By any chance do people make parties for the "disable sentinels on a planet" milestone? Cause I remember on my save I haven't managed to do that until I got automated minotaur that helped me. And I had tons of multi-tool weapon attachments and a better multitool. And I'm not sure I'm willing to grind that far here.
need to find the sentinal pilar and switcxh if of no fight needed
if I end expedition can I transger my ship after?
have more nanites in the expedition then in my primary safe
Isn't it protected by huge amount of sentinels?
sometimes, yes, but there are 3 pillars or parts around it. destroy those and you can immediately access the console to deactivate drones
in all the previous expeditions, yes, so I guess it's the same here
Didnt' see anything just switched it off
Just tried to carry 5000 mold to my main safe and that doesnt' work. It dissapaers
seems mold can't be transfered to the main safe π
but, you asked about the ship
Hello., week-old-player here, about to do my first expedition. So am I correct in understanding that it's better to do expeditions from my existing save? It doesn't break anything? I heard this expedition was quite buggy.
Yes. Go to the anomaly and there will be expedition kiosk on the first floor where you land. You can use that kiosk to switch between expedition and your normal save state. It's better because you can transfer stuff back and forward.
Expedition does seem buggy yeah
If I move my storage rooms on my freighter, will it delete the items in them?
You have to copy it, on your main save, go to the expedition terminus on the anomaly and you can copy your corvette, it'll cost a couple thousand nanites tho
Shouldn't, no. The "storage" is more like a portal to where the things are actually stored (if we're talking about the 0-9 numbered things)
if I just end the expedition, will I keep my corvette and the corvette parts?
So if I start the expedition am I able to switch to my normal game outside the expedition, if said so?
yes
through the same way u entered expedition or
Oh that's so wicked thank you π€

So.. there are only 3 Corvette weapons? Torpedo Launcher, Photon Cannon and Phase Beam? What if I'm using Cyclotron Ballista? Installing these won't buff it. And it also pollutes tech slots with unremovable stuff
I need help to find a sentinel pillar and finally finish the expedition, if I receive the help I will help you with any other mission from expedition 19. Signed by a Brazilian.
help me
Use the Sentinel Boundary map you received in one of the milestones
A few players have marked them. I left a communicator on one a few systems ago, and I found another marked by someones save beacon. If your stuck maybe look at those spots. But also yeah the map, thats how I found mine.
I didn't receive that.
alternatively look for any player base at a space station in a rendezzvous system that is at a pillar. some of us have created and uploaded bases by pillars with that in the name to help other explorers on their way through
Can you take me to one of those points?
I'd have to warp way back and im busy rn so probably not. I five you the names of planets and systems though. But you should get a map eventually if your completing milestones.
is anybody elses "advance: move" milestone just not completing? i have put the correct amount of thrusters and it says "press p to comfirm edits", after that the popup still says 5 / 6 thrusters put on
Well, there's the easy way and the hard way lol. The easy way is what Lue and apergos said: look for comm balls / bases that other players left. Many marked the locations of sentinel pillars.
The alternative is tricky: fight five wave of sentinels on ground.
well there's one more alternative
salvaged scrap modules drop the maps from time totime, so you could just mine for a lot more corvette parts and keep an eye out for the drop
(buried caches and salvaged glass also give them but it's a lower drop rate)
Are they dropping echo locators too? I'm under the impression I saw something about it
no, echo locators are given by a milestone, well you get one at any rate, otherwise you'll need to shoot those dissonant resonators and if you don't want to deal with the sentinel guards, run away
Hmm... I got mine in a weird way, but could have been a bug.
(or have an orbital uplink crafted and use that)
Happened to me. Perhaps it's by design? Anyway, I ended up just buying another thruster
I got mine from o milestone reward, and got others from resonators after disabling sentinels just for kicks
i probably forgot to read the explanation but what is the lore reason that all planets have agressive sentinels?
(But I'd recommend exchanging, as they are quite expensive)
there didn't seem to be a lore reason, this expeditoin was a bit thin on narrative
I got from opening one of those salvaged glasses. It was very unexpected
Sentinels started behaving extra aggressively and the community had to calm down the space station entity by imprinting on it, we reached 100% imprint within 3-4 days I believe lol
One of my favourite parts was how you end up transmitting the very blueprint in the end that saved your life in the beginning. Absolutely love cinema like this
You can expand your corvette's tech slots by removing as many parts that cause tech modules to appear in the tech slots as you can, filling your tech slots up with any cheap tech modules, then putting all your corvette parts back on.
Can this be done anytime or better done earlier? I don't have many tech modules available. By removing parts does it mean stripping your corvette interior and exterior bare?
Also how are we supposed to not land the ship and just teleport down if leaving the chair executes the landing sequence?
