nms-expedition

[rotund obsidian]

Quick menu has a leave seat option

And auto pilot next to it

[indigo falcon]

I can't answer as to the tech expansion. but leaving your chair when you are above the ground should not start you into landing on the ground, instead you should be able to walk to the (closed) hatch and use the button on the let side to "beam down to the planet"

ah yes, stand up from chair via quick menu, it's a kind of weird little icon, arrow right once (?) when you enter the menu

[worldly sluice]

I'm guessing when ending an expedition it's better to try and put as many parts as possible on your corvette, right?

[raven bridge]

oh, there it is!

thank you

[jade plinth]

Does anyone have the wraith expedition?They could trade with me

[native veldt]

How long till the expedition is over

[indigo falcon]

I certainly took that approach, many other players as well

[indigo falcon]

4-ish weeks, you can give the command !exptime in the #bot-spam channel to be sure

[native veldt]

Thanks

[solemn thistle]

What do you get by completing the expedition ?

[faint mesa]

Rewards! Titles, banners, a pet.

...and some other things.

[indigo falcon]

the full list of milestones and rewards is pinned in here

[urban compass]

uhh y is my ship went invis? got from exp to main save

[worldly sluice]

tried to take everything with me

[stoic nebula]

Thats an amazing ship you should keep it

I love seeing organic, asymmetrix corvettes haha

[indigo falcon]

well then here's another mess

[tawny sedge]

Maybe anyone there who'd like to play the expedition with me? 🙃

[indigo falcon]

If you don't get a reply in here, try also #nms-lfg-or-trades but be patient, it's a low traffic channel

[worldly sluice]

yeah turned out way better than I expected lol

is there a way to scrap a corvette instead of just manually deleting parts

[indigo falcon]

no. you can strip for parts and then trade it away for another ship and scrap that (if you want that slot back for example) but that's it

[tawny sedge]

Thank you:(

*:)

[rocky rampart]

It’s beautiful

[indigo falcon]

gotta egt started on household errands, safe travels, explorers!

[rocky rampart]

You got a stealth ship now I guess

[faint pelican]

For the pillar shut down can you just buy a sentinel boundary map and then find one easy?

[silk birch]

I dont understand the Advance Expand Milestone in Phasse 2 ? can any1 explain

[urban compass]

im gonna cri i guess

[faint mesa]

It's about improving the storage of your corvette; install parts that relate to that. You should have the parts from previous milestones

[silk birch]

ok imma see what i can do

btw can i extract all parts off my expedition corvette for my normal corvette

[worldly sluice]

guys, I bought some basic cockpits to barter with for an advanced one, but thye don't show up when I try to use them for bartering

[sour gorge]

Looking for someone who is willing to drive around a bit with me as passenger so I could get milestone

[worldly sluice]

just turn on multiplayer asnd go into a space anomaly and either beg people or just climb their ship and hope

I couldn't do it. good thing it's optional

[sour gorge]

In anomaly the game doesn't render half of player corvettes x_x

How to do the Derelict Freighter milestone. Anomaly NPC doesn't give free ticket

[faint mesa]

The emergency signal scanner is a reward from a prior milestone I reckon.

[sour gorge]

Is medi pod a decoration or functional? What does the game mean wired to airlock

[junior spindle]

how do i build conflict scanner to find pirates if my ships technology is full???

[faint mesa]

Isn't there something you can remove? To free space. I think I had to do this.

[junior spindle]

ive removed a few things

i guess ill just have to remove almost everything ugh

[faint mesa]

You'd only need one slot 👀

[halcyon bobcat]

Yeah that's one of the downsides of the corvette is a ton of tech slots are taken up by the parts you install on it leaving little to no room for upgrades unless you spend a ton of units on new slots or find some workaround.

[indigo falcon]

my understanding is that it is supposed to be functional but as of the current update it isn't yet

[halcyon bobcat]

Ok good to know I'm not going crazy with it's description.

[indigo falcon]

I packaged up one item to make room

[young warren]

Super not enjoying the start of this expedition. Every planet but one has super aggressive sentinels and the one that doesn't tries to kill me within 40 seconds from extreme weather + whiteouts.

[indigo falcon]

too late for your start now, but the sentinels on the starter planet will be suppressed until youleave the planet's surface for the firtst time. so I gathered a bunch of resources and did as many tasks as I could before heading to the space station.

the extreme cold planet was a right PITA, to be sure

oh also do not forget that you can shoot salvaged scrap from the comfort of your ship; just get out of the pilot's chair via quick menu, scan for the marker, tag it and then head there and shoot. repeat until you've got a bunch of parts.

[bronze fractal]

Is it me or have the corrupt sentinels become harder to damage against

[indigo falcon]

they didn't seem to me to be any worse than usual

I went for the drones instead of the doggos, since the quads are more annoying

[silk birch]

Can someone give me a ride in their corvette for 10000u ?

[indigo falcon]

(sorry, I don't have multiplayer...)

[bronze fractal]

shooting them with scatter blaster or the boltcaster and why they are reloading the sentinels already got their power back up

[indigo falcon]

I had a couple S scatter upgrades on my (starter) mt and made sure I reloaded before starting to take one out, then blam blam blam and it would be gone. reload for the next one, etc.

I did get right up close and personal, it makes a difference being right in their face

I did make sure I put all the modules in supercharged slots and/or got adjacency, to make the damage as much as possible

[raven bridge]

when do we get access to the space anomaly on the expedition?

[silk birch]

Btw how long is that distance ?

[indigo falcon]

after first warp

[young warren]

the annoying part I am dealing with is poop. Between hiding to deactivate the sentinels and the random of when it drops, it keeps vanishing just as I climb out of my hole to try to grab it.
It's just early expedition pain. Didn't realize I was safe on spawn nor did I have any idea what the starting system was like.

[indigo falcon]

I always try to get as much done on the starter world as possible, then as much done in the starter system as I can... just habit at this point

obviously if you pick up grav balls on the starter planet you will get a reaction, just that sentinels won't otherwise be harrassing you if you behave normally

[tepid grove]

Hows the Expedition going for everyone?

[silk birch]

Its my first day and i only need 12 missions left good but i need to wait for living plants and i need a ride in someones corvette

[indigo falcon]

I'm trying to decide when I should stop the daily upload of my sentinel pillar base, now that a boundary map is a milestone reward. in another week maybe

wrong channel; this channel is for help on the expedition, which is a special time limited event

you want to be in the main #no-mans-sky channel and if you can't get help there, try #nms-questions after that

[livid stratus]

Oh sorry.

[indigo falcon]

no worries. the expedition runs for another month, when you've played the normal game some you might want to try it!

[silk birch]

@indigo falcon could i have a small ride in your corvette for mission ?

[indigo falcon]

I'd do it if I could, but I am on ps5, and don't have psplus so no multiplayer for me

[silk birch]

oh ok imma just ask someone else

[indigo falcon]

good luck!

[silk birch]

thx

[bleak zephyr]

Can Corvettes land on derelict freighters?

[silk birch]

yes

[indigo falcon]

yes. there are a couple weird blue circle like things towards the front of the derelict, aim for one, press the button for landing

it took a couple times fro me for it to trigger

[silk birch]

Btw how can i smuggle stuff from black market ?

i dont undersstand the quest

Bountys ?

[indigo falcon]

when you go to a pirate system (you have a conflict scaner from a milestone, use that to find one on the galaxy map)...

[silk birch]

I found one

[tepid grove]

buy contraband

warp to normal system

sell there

[indigo falcon]

then buy a bunch of stuff from the contraband agent, warp to a normal system with aregular space station, sell all the things

you want to buy a few hundred k units worth of stuff

[silk birch]

Oh buy Illegal Black Market goods ?

[indigo falcon]

uh huh the ones with purple text

[silk birch]

this

[indigo falcon]

yup

[silk birch]

NMS teaching bad stuff xdd

[indigo falcon]

maybe. or maybe the restrictions on goods permitted in normal space stations are bad 😛

[bronze fractal]

switched to the new multi tool i got and it was easy peasy

[silk birch]

WAITT is smuggling giving profit

WTFF

[indigo falcon]

yes that's rather the point of smuggling

[silk birch]

oohh

[indigo falcon]

😄

[bleak zephyr]

They still use four pads with green lights to indicate landing on a derelict?

[indigo falcon]

they didn't when I did the milestone, that's why I posted about the two blue circle-like areas at the front part, not where the normal landing pads are. no idea if that was some artifact of my particular derelict or what but I saw no regular landing pad areas

[silk birch]

Btw what can and how much can i transfer from expedition to main save

[indigo falcon]

you started the expedition from the anomaly terminal, right? on the main save?

[silk birch]

yea

[bleak zephyr]

Ah, I didn't see your post. Blue circles on front. I'll look for those.

[indigo falcon]

ok, so whatever you can fit in those slots going back (bu tfor the corvette, just shove all parts onto the ship and make a copy when back on the main save, for some nanites)

[silk birch]

can i do it multiple times

because i rly want those corvette parts

[indigo falcon]

you should be able to just put every single part onto the ship, use it as a part transferring device 😄

i fthere's a few left over, ok put those in the slots.

[silk birch]

wait so i copy the corvette to the main save does it cost anything ?

[indigo falcon]

yes, on the main save you need to pay some nanites, like 2800 or so?

[silk birch]

ohh

expensive

[indigo falcon]

depends on class, if you upgraded it then it will cost more, etc

[raven bridge]

the "expedition path" is the green line on the star map, right? What goes wrong if we deviate from it?

[indigo falcon]

well the main save should have a nanite source by now hopefully

[silk birch]

i played on the main save for 20h and on the expeiditonb 5

[indigo falcon]

well if you need to getto the next rendezvous system yo uare farther away (but you can just go to the space station teleporter and go to the previous rend. system)

it should say top left 'expedition path' or something like that

as opposed to e.g. 'galaxy center' or whatever

hmm gotta go do round two of household errands, good luck to all explorers!

[crude veldt]

I have never been on expeditions before. What should I take with me?

[silk birch]

wait when i die how do i get my tuff back

[misty plinth]

Find your gravestone and interact with it.

[crude veldt]

There is a Grave it looks Like a Atlas Symbol I think

[faint mesa]

Depends on the expedition, but you can keep on the basics. Chromatic metal, perhaps some batteries... there's a pinned post in this channel with some recommendations

[crude veldt]

Thanks:)

While on Expedition Can I Switch to my main Save?

[random canopy]

How much time left on expedition? Like 5 weeks?

[faint mesa]

More or less. Here: #bot-spam message

[random canopy]

Ah thanks. 4 weeks 2 days ish

[faint mesa]

That could change though given Switch's delay. We shall see

[random canopy]

I best get going on it lol

[misty plinth]

I ran it barebones and it went pretty well as long as I stayed in offline mode.

[sour gorge]

How to get more than 30 tech slots for Corvette? Do I need upgrade its class from C to B?

[bleak zephyr]

Are gravatino balls needed to complete any milestones?

[sinful zodiac]

I have played NMS off and on for years, but just reinstalled. As a starting point, should I do an expedition save and then just convert when I complete the expedition, or should I start normal save and then start expedition at the terminal once I make it to the anomaly?

[bleak zephyr]

I always start Expeditions with a clean save. They may have fixed it, but the normal save conversion was a bit fiddly when I tried it.

[misty plinth]

That's a personal preference.

Some people like to bring back what they earn in an expedition to their main saves and some aren't all that fussed about it.

[sinful zodiac]

Is it possible to still get all the normal questlines in a save that was originally an expedition save? I have read conflicting info on that.

[misty plinth]

I've continued a couple saves that were originally started in an expedition and have been able to get them up to the current update content.

[sinful zodiac]

Gonna give it a try, thanks!

[lavish stream]

so I just finished the expedition. What do I need to do to carry my corvette parts back to my primary save?

[misty plinth]

It should copy out at the expedition terminal on the anomaly. Some nanite cost to be expected. Probably no more than 3K.

[lavish stream]

I read that you had to do some sort of exploit to bring all the parts back?

Like I have my built corvette and spare parts I found thats stored at the corvette cache

[misty plinth]

You can bust it up for parts and move it out that way I imagine. Might take several times switching saves.

If you completely exited and closed the expedition though that will no longer be an option.

[lavish stream]

😟

[lavish stream]

to clarify, how do I do that, as in switching saves back and forth to grab stuff from the terminus? I thought I needed to end the expedition to be able to grab from the terminus in the main save?

[misty plinth]

So put the items into the terminal you want to take back to the primary save. Open the main menue and return to primary there. Collect the items and stash them. Then use the terminal to return back to the expedition.

[lavish stream]

Also do I need to hatch the companion in the expedition or can I do that in the primary after ending expedition?

[misty plinth]

Expedition eggs/pets do not transfer. Need to collect them from the QuickSilver vendor on the main save after you earn them.

[lavish stream]

🙏

[lavish stream]

I only see 1 save for my entire game, and thats the expedition. Did I mess up? I thought there was supposed to be a new save created?

or was I supposed to create a second save and use that for the expedition?

[ashen shore]

I’m on expedition, how do I kill sentinel interceptors in space?

Does the leaving my pilot seat regenerate my shield?

[ashen shore]

this is patched now isn’t it?

makes you end before you can put stuff into terminus on expedition saves

[indigo falcon]

when you start from the main save via te anomaly terminal, and then you look at the menu, you will see that the main save is listed as "on the corvette expedition", this is normal, don't worry. it creates a sepcial version of the save for the expd, you can switch back and forth between the two versions via the options menu I think it is

https://imgur.com/d01twrD this

[lone marsh]

is there any reason to own a freighter in an expedition?

[kindred hearth]

Extra storage primarily.

[lone marsh]

ok thank you

[solemn bane]

This may only be if you have optional milestones to complete. Guess I'll test it.

[wooden moon]

For those who started a new save for the expedition, are there any good multitools that have been found yet? L-shaped/square-shaped S-class?

[kindred hearth]

Is there a base I can teleport to for the Phase 4 Rendezvous system?

[indigo falcon]

haven't heard of any but that doesn't mean there aren't some on the route. could check the subreddit maybe

[indigo falcon]

there are probably plenty, check at the space station and see

[kindred hearth]

I'll look again, but didn't see anything that indicated such.

[halcyon wasp]

Best expedition ever

[solemn bane]

lol

[rain spruce]

woah desert planet..

[crude veldt]

How Long does it take to complete the Expedition? Im now 4 Hours in and Almost done.
But if its that quick why do we have so much Time for it

[ashen shore]

ah that makes sense

[wraith moss]

@solemn bane hello again! I just completed the NMS expedition. You were right about staying on this save. However, when I returned to the space anomaly it doesn't give me the option to keep this save (or at least I don't think it does). It says 'place all your valuable items in the expedition terminus' and then I can return to primary save. Will my corvette, nanites, units and quicksilver come with me?

[solemn bane]

You will have the option to buy your corvette for nanites on your primary save, multitool as well. The rest goes with you (plus more for things you have done during the expedition)

[crude veldt]

Why is my anomalie always Empty I Cant do the optional Mission
(Multiplayer is on)

[wraith moss]

Yeah, it says that anything else will be converted into nanites/units. What about the companion egg? It says I cannot take that with me?

[solemn bane]

You may need to turn multiplayer on in network

[crude veldt]

It is

[wraith moss]

And how many nanites are we talking 🤔 ?

[solemn bane]

Yeah some items can't be transfered. In the case of the egg you can claim it on your primary save at the quicksilver vendor

[solemn bane]

My fully loaded one was like 2100 maybe? You'll likely get a lot more from completing the expedition.

[wraith moss]

Yeah, I appreciate you. It's gave me an understanding of how to complete expeditions for the future. It's also taught me a lot about the game, that I didn't know before.

[crude veldt]

Reload the Game didnt work too so I have to quit the Expedition without the last Mission

[random canopy]

I cant land my corvette, I'm trying to locate the salvaged parts now but it literally wont let me land

[solemn bane]

I'm not familiar with playstation nms. Have you seen people on the Anomaly before?

[crude veldt]

Yes When I First entert but After that not

[solemn bane]

Don't land your corvette ever. Use the back left red button to teleport down. Also, you don't need to get out of your corvette to mine the parts, just get up from your seat, mark them with your scanner then shoot them with your ship's photon cannon.

[random canopy]

Why not land it?

[solemn bane]

Why waste the time and launch fuel?

[crude veldt]

Yea that was 4 hours time waste

[orchid cave]

If starting from an existing save, what’s useful to take besides things like life support gel and ion batteries?

[solemn bane]

Warp fuel, warp drive upgrades maybe. You don't really need much of anything, just don't sell the Walker Brain and Sentinel Boundary Map they give you

[chilly kayak]

How do you get stardiving?

[solemn bane]

Pulse to a planet, fly down until you get the "entering atmosphere" mesage, jump out of th back of your ship and hit the jetpack all the way down. Bring an Orbital Uplink so you don't have to wait for the full fall.

[chilly kayak]

I tried that and only got about 40 seconds

[solemn bane]

hit the jetpack all the way down

[chilly kayak]

Thanks I'll try again

[frank bloom]

Is the optional hitchhiking part extremely buggy for anyone else?

[solemn bane]

yep

[frank bloom]

I need 5k more u for that optional. Can I group with someone and ride in their ship for a bit?

[chilly kayak]

Got it. Thanks

[frank bloom]

Anyone?

[young warren]

Did I just softlock myself?
I warped into a system on the way to Rally Point 2, got into a fight, and the game tried to auto dock with the freighter after defeating the pirates.
Ended up floating in space and falling onto the outside of the freighter.
I can see a ship marker outside of the freighter in the center of a blue disk but I see no ship.
I can not reach said disk/marker.

[sullen meteor]

Expedition 19 - Corvette
Event ends <t:1760540400>

See Pins in #nms-expedition & run !Expedition in #bot-spam

[solemn bane]

Just relog probably

[young warren]

Same boat. I guess I can see if I have a save from warping in before the fight

ohh, climbing down the side of the freighter, when I get exactly under the ship and look up I can see it.
Maybe I can find the teleporter. I didn't teleport down or walk out the back door, though. My ship just vanished out from under me.

[solemn bane]

You can't fly off and summon your ship or something?

[young warren]

Just discovered I can jump off the edge of freighter and do weightless flight so working my way up to it.

[young warren]

re-docked and was able to properly dock and TP down.

[pastel glacier]

Did u not transfer stuff over? Also the purpose or expeditions is for the exclusive rewards which go to all your saves forever 😭

[raven bridge]

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.
Ohhhhh I think I get it.
So basically, I remove all the parts I attached to the corvette, fill up the slots with cheap starship modules, then reattach the parts - which will force expand my tech slots permanently. Did I understand that right?

[oblique pivot]

sup guys, im doing my first expedition after i finished the main story

[raven bridge]

So that being said, what's the maximum amount of tech slots corvettes can hold? 60?

[solemn bane]

Someone did it on the Steam forums and got 60, so I guess yeah

[raven bridge]

oh awesome!

thank you

[fading socket]

what should i take for the current expedition?

[faint mesa]

#nms-expedition message
For this one specifically, makes sure to bring chromatic metal

(That being said, this one is an easy one -- so don't worry too much about it 🙂 )

[fading socket]

alright, thank you

oh, easy one?

should i be fine not bringing anything?

[faint mesa]

Probably. Bring at least the chromatic metal if you can. Will shove off a few boring minutes of grinding

[fading socket]

alright

[low horizon]

to rebuild my corvette, do I have to first dismantle all the interior additions?

[surreal pulsar]

Does my expedition ship transfer?

[solemn bane]

How do you mean rebuild?

[low horizon]

fully redesign build since I have more parts

[solemn bane]

If you started from an existing save, you can copy your expedition ship when you switch to your primary save.

[solemn bane]

You can remove parts and add them as you want. There's no "start from scratch" option though

[surreal pulsar]

If I used the egg on my expedition does it transfer

[solemn bane]

If you started from an existing save, it does not transfer back to your primary save, but you can claim the expedition egg on your primary save at the quicksilver vendor.

[low horizon]

but what happens to the parts I built inside it? like refiner and processor, etc. And the storage unit, do I need to empty it first before removing?

[solemn bane]

Oh I see what you mean. I think they get deleted and the parts refunded, but you'll have to test

I finally decided to try Hitchhiking and someone rebuilt a part of their ship so I was stuck inside of it, lol.

So I just tried this on a new save. If I choose to upload the plans or not, I still kept the plans on my save after the expedition was over.

[frank bloom]

So when harvesting plants from the corvette, I notice it’s only harvesting 1, resetting the rest of my plants, and I only get 1 harvest

Is this a known issue?

[solemn bane]

I usually have two living walls facing each other in two different rooms, four in total, and it only takes me one round of harvesting to get all 8 that I need for the milestone. I've done it a number of times.

[frank bloom]

Mine is like yours and it’s resetting all of my plants

Doesn’t matter where I harvest it

[solemn bane]

Weird. I typically play offline, who knows if that matters.

[frank bloom]

Also offline

[light plume]

Afaik this is purely visual and u can still harvest the other plants u haven't harvested

At least on my end

[frank bloom]

I’ll try messing with it

Some are and some aren’t. It reset all of my cacti

[oblique pivot]

how's my Expedition corvette?

[solemn bane]

Ah that's true. I remember seeing the animation happen on all the plants.

[solemn bane]

Not ugly enough.

[frank bloom]

It’s the only mission I’m stuck on

[solemn bane]

Grow Frostwort, they're only a 12 minute grow time.

[frank bloom]

I did the Mord/grav ball

What’s the grow time for those?

[solemn bane]

Longer

[oblique pivot]

yours can be neat if you make it less squarey

[solemn bane]

If you google it, divide the time by 5 (the grow time multiplier for this expedition is .2)

[solemn bane]

Yeah but then it wouldn't be as ugly.

(But Frostwort is still the fastest growing plant)

[tepid basin]

how do you open the hatch of your corvette from the outside if it’s closed

[dark cobalt]

Anyone on phase 5 rendezvous station that can help me out with traveling on another corvette?

[tepid basin]

yeah i can

[dark cobalt]

Nice

[tepid basin]

probably if i can get my corvette open haha

[dark cobalt]

lol

ingame I am M4XT3R

@tepid basin Do you also need to complete it?

I can give you a ride also

[tepid basin]

yeah

how do i add u lol

[dark cobalt]

steam?

shoot me a friend request

[tepid basin]

do u got a ghost for a pfp?

[dark cobalt]

Nope its misato lol

[tepid basin]

k added

[dark cobalt]

Nice

[solemn bane]

Summon it or use an Orbital Uplink to warp back to the space station

Or probably relog

[tepid basin]

relog worked haha

[low horizon]

okay so I was in the anomoly and I fell through the floor and an invisible wall kept me from accessing teleport pads to corvette. Is this a known bug?

[dark cobalt]

Yeah lol so strange

I bugged myself into it and it spawned lol

[indigo falcon]

invisible walls is a known bug, try reloading last restore point

I seriously cannot wait for these larger bugs to get resolved, it seems especially bad this time

[young warren]

Lost in space, seems to not check off the "Return to your starship" objective but the milestone completes.
Known issue?

[solemn bane]

You may need to sell the Crew Manifest and Captain's Log

[young warren]

Just did that.

[solemn bane]

Then probably a bug

[young warren]

Just noticed 2 derelicts spawned in the starting solar system. Maybe I need to clear the other one.

[solemn bane]

Might have to do with multiplayer being on. I noticed it when I was testing something else but didn't think much of it. Don't remember it happening in my other runs.

[young warren]

Had it on when I cleared the first one, but no friends with me.

[solemn bane]

Multiplayer just being on seems to cause all kinds of issues with missions

[young warren]

Yeah. Fun, the second one is an exact duplicate of the first one I cleared.

[sterile cedar]

Guys I've just finished expedition 19, how do I keep my corvette? Is there a way to?

[solemn bane]

Did you start the expedition from an existing save?

[sterile cedar]

Yep

[solemn bane]

You can switch back to your primary save at any time via the pause menu and copy it over, or you can just wait until you've ended the expedition completely and copy it from your primary save.

[sterile cedar]

Will it copy the parts as well, or just the design?

[solemn bane]

Parts and tech, not cargo. It'll cost some nanites.

[sterile cedar]

im a bit confused, where will i see this option?

[solemn bane]

Expedition Terminal

[sterile cedar]

thank you. another thing, is there any way to bring the companion egg>

?

[solemn bane]

No but you can claim the mouse on your primary save at the quicksilver vendor

[silk birch]

Can someone takeme on a ride?

[silk birch]

Wait so how can i import all my corvette parts then ?

[solemn bane]

You can put them in the terminal or add them to your ship before you copy it

[silk birch]

Ok but does it cost more ?

When i add parts ?

and does it also copy my inventory ß

[solemn bane]

I dunno, probably

[solemn bane]

It'll copy the number of slots, not cargo. Only parts and tech modules installed to tech slots.

[silk birch]

Ok because i only did the expedition forthe parets

[silk birch]

Oh so when i attach everything on my corvette itll alll import ?

[solemn bane]

Yes. Or you can put the parts in the terminal.

[silk birch]

Ok

[sterile cedar]

thank you very much for your help @solemn bane

[silk birch]

@solemn bane by chance do you have any shield corvette part for sale ?

[solemn bane]

I'm not in game, but you can just buy them from the space station, right?

[silk birch]

i dont have any parts for trade tho

[solemn bane]

The basic ones are for units. Are there no shield parts in there?

[ashen shore]

Guys, how can I beat the paintress in expedition 33?

[silk birch]

no

[silk birch]

Wrong Game XD

[solemn bane]

Ah, I'd go digging for corvette parts then. To make it easy, you can go to a planet with Salvageable Scrap, fly low, get out of your seat and use your scanner to find and mark locations, then you can just fly to them in your corvette and shoot them with its photon cannon. No need to land or get out of your ship.

[silk birch]

Ok imma try

[silk birch]

Can i import stuff mutliple times ?

or only one time

wait cant i import corvette modules ??

nvm

[solemn bane]

Multiple times by switching to your primary save via the pause menu

[silk birch]

How can i disasemble a corvette ?

[solemn bane]

Slowly.

[silk birch]

but i need a cockpit and the reactor right

[solemn bane]

If you want to get rid of the ship altogether, you'll have to trade it to an NPC

[silk birch]

so i cant just deleete all

[solemn bane]

Right

[lone marsh]

if you're doing a darelict freighter is it better to take fabricate items or extract nanites when doing an expedition?

[solemn bane]

If you make items you can make corvette parts, that's what I've been doing. Nothing is necessarily better.

[lone marsh]

ok thank you. Ive never done one before i just knew it was a choice. I think ill do as you said. Thank you 🙂

[mystic cobalt]

Can anyone help me complete the quests??

Im new and only started on the expedition

[split merlin]

It will keep all the stuff in your main save, right? Base location, blueprints, that kind of stuff?

[solemn bane]

If you start from an existing save, you will keep your bases. Maybe discoveries? Not blueprints.

[split merlin]

Oh...so I won't get to keep anything I purchased with nanites from the Anomaly.

[solemn bane]

Correct.

[knotty peak]

Where would I acquire an advanced mining laser?

[solemn bane]

You can learn it on the Anomaly or at Minor Settlements (use the Signal Booster to find them or buy charts at a space station)

[knotty peak]

Ah I totally forget about that. Ty!

[split merlin]

Oh well, Thanks for the info though. 🙂

[shy geyser]

Stack the upgrade tech, and bring it back to your main save. or take back to your main and get someone to help you packmule it to another sav eif you r main is fully tech unlocked

[split merlin]

Main is no where near fully loaded. I had to start over because of an...accident when deleting files. Which is why I'm also starting over this expedition again.

[shy geyser]

oh well if you started an expedition save, and you plan to let it transition to a normal save, anything you unlock at the anomoly SHOULD then be unlocked after it becomes a normal save when the expedition ends. ******If you started a new save, THEN came into expedition, it wont be unlocked, bt take the unlock tech back out of the expedtion to your main save at the end

[split merlin]

Started a normal save and used the anomaly to start the expedition.

[bleak star]

Is it better to just copy my corvette with nanites or deconstruct, transfer and rebuild?

[solemn bane]

Well, you can do both

[solemn bane]

When you're able to transfer parts, you can switch to your primary save in the pause menu, copy your ship, return to the expedition, dismantle your ship and send it through the expedition terminal

[bleak star]

I figured, it's just I'm noticing that not all of the tech I have installed is showing up when I go to copy it the normal way.

[shy geyser]

oh shiiiiit, hadn't thought to do that. You doing too much now haha

[solemn bane]

If you only want to do one, I've been copying the ship, but it's up to you

[solemn bane]

It'll be there, just a bug

[bleak star]

Gotcha, thanks 🤘

[fading ibex]

Is there still a problem with the expedition overwriting the savegame in ps5?

[solemn bane]

I haven't heard of that til now

I only say that because I've spent a LOT of time here

[fading ibex]

Someone mentioned it on Sept 5

But it seems to be rare so … worth trying

[bleak star]

Anyone else having problems with stored tech not transferring out?

[solemn bane]

How do you mean?

[bleak star]

I'm putting stuff in to transfer to my main save and it's not coming thru. It just disappears.

[solemn bane]

Save before you switch to primary save

[lone marsh]

is there a sneeky way to do this?

[bleak star]

Items come thru just fine tho

[solemn bane]

Yeah you can just climb on someone's ship and hope they take you for a ride

[bleak star]

Cargo I mean

[lone marsh]

I just tried i found a hiding spot and the ship took off and left me

[solemn bane]

Hm, interesting. Haven't seen that before. I sent myself tech when I ended the expedition a few times.

[solemn bane]

Yeah it's pretty buggy

[lone marsh]

maybe ill try the anomaly

[bleak star]

Yeah it's worked for me before no problem

Just lost some pretty good rolls because of this too 🤦‍♂️

They're just gone

[ebon kayak]

these sentials are aholes through and through

[crude veldt]

I got the egg and the jetpack trails if you mean that

[solemn bane]

And the Pile of Junk Mk VI since I found another save I hadn't run the expedition on yet, lol.

[lone marsh]

do you get to take anything with you when you leave the expedition?

or finish it*

[lone marsh]

I really like this

[solemn bane]

If you started the expedition from an existing save you can copy your ship and multitool once you are back on your primary save. You can also send most items back to yourself (you cannot send eggs and some other things, but you can claim the mech mouse on your primary save at the quicksilver vendor)

[lone marsh]

Oh sick ty.

[ashen igloo]

you can copy those ships/multitool multiple times btw 🙂

[solemn bane]

yep

[ashen shore]

Finished the expedition, missed my original corvette

[tame coral]

what is the event about?

[solemn bane]

Corvettes.

[tame coral]

yeah so you see i am knew i just got the game yesterday

[solemn bane]

Expeditions are like a rogue-lite adventure where you start over and get to send cool junk back to your main, OR a you can start a new main character on them before starting the main storyline. This one can introduce new players to corvettes, which is a highly customizable new ship type.

Jury's out if it's better to start on the expedition as a newbie or not. It doesn't hold your hand as much as the main storyline so you may get hung up on basic stuff.

[serene night]

Can you do the expedition in multiple sessions like save and quit mid way and continue another day?

[solemn bane]

Yep. If you start from an existing save you can also swap back to the primary save at any time.

[serene night]

Cool thanks

[eternal zodiac]

I heard from somewhere that u can transfer ur expedition corvette to ur main save, 'tis true?

[autumn thorn]

Hello! May I get some help here x)
I am trying to play with with my partner but i cant invite him, he can't join me (I have my settings to friends only, he is in my Steam friend list and already tried adding him via NMS code).

I can join his game BUT i can't see him nor his corvette (we are at a space station). He just sees my character T-Posing in a corner.

[hoary grove]

Yep, for nanites. You can also copy the multitool

[eternal zodiac]

How do I do this?

[hoary grove]

Let's say you're main save side. Got to the area from where you started the expedition over at the anomaly, you'll see an option to copy starship and another option to copy multitool

[hoary grove]

Turn off multiplayer, restart
Turn on multiplayer, restart

Try meeting at the anomaly

The corvettes being invisible is a really annoying bug for those who play with friends unfortunately

[hoary grove]

Do keep in mind you'll need nanites to do this

[autumn thorn]

Gonna try it right now, thanks ^^

[eternal zodiac]

I assume this only works if I started the expedition from the anomaly and not from the main menu?

[hoary grove]

Yes. If you start from the main menu it creates a completely separate save file and you cannot migrate anything to main (except some specific rewards that are shared across all saves)

[eternal zodiac]

Thnx

[ashen shore]

Can you transfer your corvette from expedition to main? (if you started in the anomaly)

[cunning moon]

Is there a way to force change instances?

[hoary grove]

Yes, go back to where you started the expedition from, you'll see a new option to copy corvette for nanites (once you switch back to primary save)

[sturdy dirge]

is there any point in taking equipement into the expedition?

[hoary grove]

Warp cells, warp drive upgrades and some shield upgrades can help you if you struggle with resources, ie. If you normally play creative or custom difficulty

I did it without bringing anything in but could've optimised it a little better. Just take your time with it, definitely bring in some warp cells if you can

[sturdy dirge]

thanks

[young warren]

On the planet you start on, do not pick up any of the glow spheres that anger the sentinels and farm up all the resources you might need.
Almost everywhere else, once you leave the planet, they are aggressive.

[hoary grove]

On the contrary, I'd recommend picking up as many as you can then using the uplink (new blueprint) to delta out of there. Easy units, I had almost 2 million off rip because of that

[sturdy dirge]

what does the uplink do?

[young warren]

As the last thing you do yeah, I can not disagree.

Weird that you can not remove the photon cannon module on the inventory screen (have three other weapons installed) even though it has been removed from the build physically.

[strong saffron]

I just hoped on the new expo. The camera is shaky and the corvete is cramped. I also leave the seat facing front sonin order to leave i have to change direction. And the ramp dont touch the ground when i land. 🙁

[young warren]

Feel for you. I gave up on trying to land after spending like an hour being told you can not land because the ground isnt clear on desert planet with plenty of open area.
I just teleport down.

[dark loom]

does anyone want to help me get the Hitchhiking achievement

[autumn briar]

Hi so I'm legally blind and have a VERY difficult time aiming. I'm stuck on 2 tasks, the one to take out 8 corrupt sentinels and the one to shut down the sentinel force.

Is there any one who could help me? I'll help with the hitchhiking (I also need that one) and any other tasks!

(side note: I am literally sitting right outside a sentinel pillar but I've already died 3 times because I can't aim and it's a lot to take on by myself 😆😭

[dark loom]

ya sure

wanna meet up at the anomoly?

[thick umbra]

if you are close to a pillar .. dont fight .. make it to that terminal and shutdown the sentinels

[autumn briar]

Sure!

[autumn briar]

Oh!!

[autumn briar]

Thank you! I thought I had to fight them!

[thick umbra]

no .. use that terminal and you have peace on that planet 🙂

[dark loom]

my name is Rudolph

in the anomoly

[thick umbra]

And the mission is done

[autumn briar]

Mines CrowBat!

[dark loom]

im here

[autumn briar]

I'm a tree looking guy next to the nexus, as stated, I'm legally blind so you'll have to come up to me 😆😆 the names are small

[dark loom]

i dont see u for some reason

[young warren]

Love the Logan's Run reference for the fishing milestone.

[autumn briar]

Oh what the? Ummm let me leave the anomaly and come back in maybe

[dark loom]

ok

maybe we're in ifferent server regions or smth

[autumn briar]

Hmmm maybe?

Is there a way to fix that?

[dark loom]

lets try meeting on a planet

nvm actually planets r big

[autumn briar]

Actually there's a base right outside the pillar I'm going to!

Also it might help that the system I'm in is on the expedition route? So it's not just a random place

[dark loom]

idk how to enter coordinates lol

whats the planet tho

@autumn briar

[autumn briar]

I say as the anomaly suddenly spits me out in a different system with a space battle istg 🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻I forgot it could do that

Give me a second to get back to it. Feel free to pm me

I wonder if we could use the space anomaly teleporter to go to the same base?

[autumn hearth]

You guys gotta join eachother off the home screen under multiplayer. Trying to find eachother naturally is borderline impossible

[autumn briar]

That's good to know 😅 I never actually play with anyone (thanks anxiety) so I would never have figured that out

[dark loom]

ohh i see

[autumn briar]

Do we need to be friends for that? (Never tried to meet up with anyone)

[dark loom]

nah i think i jus needd ur friendd code

DM ur no mans sky friendcode to me

[autumn briar]

Oh bet one second!

[dark loom]

addedd

u should delete that later just incase

[autumn briar]

Do I need to add you too?

[dark loom]

im not sure

ill DDM umy code

[autumn briar]

True lol

[autumn briar]

Ok cool

[broken garnet]

what system name for Resist 5 milestone corvette expedition

[rocky crescent]

Anyone on expedition have salvageable data ? I'll trade frigate modules for some

[rose ferry]

Why so many planets with aggressive sentinels?

Is it part of the expedition?

[vital vine]

can someone who has gotten the fall from the corvette for 60 seconds explain do i have to like not be able to get back because i am doing it wrong

[split merlin]

Just walk out right after you hit atmosphere and just let yourself fall to the surface. You can then summon your ship to pick you up after you land. Save jetpack for landing safely.

[rose ferry]

My corvette is stuck in pulse engine flight but not actually in pulse engine flight...

[faint mesa]

Is it doing that deafening sound?

[rose ferry]

Yeah

I did a restart

Lost my mission. :/

[faint mesa]

Yep, unfortunately that's the only way I've found to stop this: reload the last savepoint 😕

[nimble anvil]

@kindred hearth I think im in the Phase 3 System: Tumenni Zes

[kindred hearth]

Ok, lemme see if I can get back there.

I'm headed to that station now.

[nimble anvil]

Guess we are in different instances

[kindred hearth]

Guess so. Go back to the anomaly and teleport to the Butterfly House. That usually works for me.

Wait

[nimble anvil]

Try to add me with this code E2VC-J5EW-3M8BY

[kindred hearth]

Here's mine so I can join you: XSKM-KV9K-BJXSE

[rose ferry]

So autopilot is broken

[vital vine]

thank you much

[keen sail]

How do i complete the pirate system quest? I already warped into a lvl 3 System but nothing happened

[faint mesa]

Install the conflict scanner (I think you get its blueprint as a reward from another milestone) and search for systems with an icon of a skull

[sage jackal]

Sorry man, I did not see this on time. Lmk if you still need help and I'll gladly lend a hand.

[keen sail]

Do yk Abt any on the normal path?

[faint mesa]

I don't, sorry 😕
Did it with the scanner.

[copper violet]

Hey all 👋
I can't seem to "land" my corvette by the derelict freighter. I approach the blue disks (slowly) but the landing sequence doesnt start. The teleport button does not work. Any tips?

[young warren]

Quit and come back in?

[copper violet]

I have already 🙁

[fringe star]

Space walk?

[young warren]

have you tried going to the space station, portaling somewhere else and coming back?
Trying to think of things that will reload the state of the solar system.

[fringe star]

Then summon

[copper violet]

I'll try the portal to reset the system. Hope I dont lose the scanner...

[faint mesa]

Before that:

MP on?

[copper violet]

yes

[faint mesa]

Turn it off and try again

[copper violet]

How do I turn it off? Wasn't sure...

[faint mesa]

Network options in the menu

After disabling it, perhaps a reload of the game will be necessary

[copper violet]

Reloading game...

Didnt help. Gonna go to the staton and tyry the portal method to reset the system

[young warren]

Feel for you though. I had a weird bug with the milestone derelict mission.
Two identical derelicts spawned into the starting system and triggered the mission for it.
After completing the first one, the return to your spacecraft would never register and tick off.
Cleared both and only when I went in a day later did that mission "finish".

[faint mesa]

Keep MP off while trying, unfortunately MP is notorious for glitching derelicts

[copper violet]

ooof!!!

[copper violet]

Thanks. good to know

[unkempt lance]

Finished the expedition a few hours ago.
So glad to finally have my corvette in my main save.

[copper violet]

Portal reset did not help 🙁

[faint mesa]

Just to be sure: you are finding the derelict via emergency signal scanner, right?
If so I don't know what could be happening 😕

[copper violet]

Correct

I just pulled up and spacewalked my way in....

[faint mesa]

Did it work? That's a creative solution 😆

[copper violet]

yep! I'm officially playing no man's Alien Isolation 😎

[fringe star]

You should be able to summon your ship when done

[copper violet]

Couldnt (no nav data). But there was s teleport on the deck 👍

[fringe star]

Sweet

[chilly kayak]

Is there any kind of guide on what to do when your finished with the expedition? I.E. should I sell all my uninstalled technology or anything before ending? Do the ship parts cary over to my other save? What should I transfer back to my main game?

[fringe star]

Keep the orbital link so you can make more.

Remember to always keep one in reserve though

[chilly kayak]

What is the orbital link?

[fringe star]

The instant transport to space station

[chilly kayak]

Idk if i have one of those

[fringe star]

No recipe in main save

You have to have the recipe. You might not have one made currently.

I believe if you bring one to your main save you can make more from that one

[chilly kayak]

Oh I see it i never made one

[fringe star]

If not they are gone for good as no recipe for it in main save

[raw galleon]

is anyone givina taxi ride for the mission?

[fringe star]

Its how you got off the planent in the beginning

[chilly kayak]

Oh ok

[hybrid jungle]

You have to actually press the landing button on them. At least that was it on PS4

[copper violet]

Usually for a freighter, I just get close and auto land takes over. That's how it was in my main save ship for derelicts as wekll

[raw galleon]

can anyone land a hand to aboard someone else's corvette?

[hybrid jungle]

Yeah, but i had that "bug" aswell

[chilly kayak]

Is it better to sell everything or do you get max value for everything when you end?

[copper violet]

How do I transfer my vette to my main save when I'm finished?>?

[chilly kayak]

Oh. You can't transfer orbital uplinks

[wraith junco]

Dismantle and send it in modules

[copper violet]

Dismantle in the editor?

[fringe star]

Do you mean intact? If you started the expedition from your main save you will get the option to copy it to your main save at the anomoly

Will cost some nanites

[copper violet]

All I see is the option to transfer matts. I did start from my main save

[fringe star]

Below that there isn't options to copy mutlitool and or ship?

[copper violet]

Nope. Only buitton is "end expedition"

[fringe star]

Back up your save first for safety (in case I am misremembering), but if I remember the sequence right, First end expedition, then you will get the options. I believe the above screen is for transferring stuff from your main save still

There will be a final Finish expedition button

[copper violet]

I already coicked "end expedition" once, since the terminal said I needed to do so to start transferring. Is there another after the one shown above?

also - what do you mean back up save?

[fringe star]

Sorry, I tend to assume people are on PC, which I need to stop doing.

[copper violet]

I am on PC

[wraith junco]

Copy UI will be on expedition terminal on anomaly i think.

[fringe star]

Yes

[copper violet]

After the screen I showed above?

[wraith junco]

Put stuff u want to send . Exit the screen u showed . Switch to main save from options. Pick up stuff on main save. Go back to exp save from terminal. Repeat if u want to send more stuff than there is slots

[chilly kayak]

Do i get credits for all the stuff in my storage containers?

[copper violet]

So take apart my ship in editor, then do the abovce?

[fringe star]

Not necessary

[wraith junco]

Thats what i would do .

[copper violet]

So I need to go back and forth to and from a station? I don't see a vette editor in the Anomaly

[wraith junco]

There is no ship editor on anomaly

[fringe star]

If you are just going to make the same ship again why do that?

[copper violet]

So I dont need to go through collecting the parts and building again

[copper violet]

So I started to transfer some parts - just some extra ones not yet built into my 'vette.
I, OFC, have not yet clicked the second "End Expedition" button shown above.

I loaded my main save, then hopped on the expedition terminal to collect.

There, on the bottom, it asked me if I wanted to copy my vette 🎉

[toxic salmon]

Hello o7
I'm a relatively new player, got to the Anomaly and can start the expedition, so will do that.

Any obvious tips to share? As a newbie, are the checkpoints/quest steps and milestones explained enough to follow through? For reference, this would be my first expedition.

[copper violet]

Pinned message in theis channel really was a big help

[toxic salmon]

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks o7

[copper violet]

o7

[raw galleon]

can someone land a hand for a taxi ride?

[amber plume]

Can someone help me shut down the sentinels on a plant. It the last thing I need for the expedition

[remote thunder]

complete and claim phase 5 milestone 4, use sentinel boundary chart, goto pillar, shutdown sentinels

[amber plume]

Thank you it's been a while since I've played this I just recently got back into it like a couple weeks ago I have one so I'm going to go to a planet and use it

[remote thunder]

can just pop it in space in a gek/korvax/vykeen system

[chilly kayak]

Do i need to spend my quicksilver before I end my expedition or does it transfer?

[fluid vault]

it will transfer

assuming you started the expedition from an existing save

[chilly kayak]

I did. Thank you

[ebon kayak]

hate myself.....moved habs of my corvette and lost all the stuff in storage...fml

[open dagger]

You do not have the storage containers on a planetside base or freighter?

[ebon kayak]

nope. was using corv storage

[torpid oracle]

You removing the storage shouldn't make the items inside the actually disappear, they just wouldn't be available until you made another storage container (of that same number, 0-9)

That's gotta be a bug

[ebon kayak]

you were right...im dummy.

[waxen mirage]

How could I enter the freighter from here?

[faint mesa]

Button near the cockpit entrance will teleport you

[waxen mirage]

Thx

[stuck kayak]

Relatively new NMS player, I put in the work and built a Corvette, I'm working on the interior now (5-20 minutes left depending), and I'd like to form a crew once I've finished.

Is there an in-game matchmaking sort of mechanic or do I need to start human/??? traficking?

trafficking*

[stuck kayak]

Anyone who is BRAND NEW or feels it, let me know! I have enough fun flying folk around that I don't need MUCH loot, 10% will keep me fed, 20% will keep me pleased and 25% is the key to happiness!

Willing to travel, fuel isn't an issue! (I'll gather what I need when I can, in the worst case scenario we'll travel to a hospitable planet while I gather what's needed.

I'm keeping to Discord because there doesn't seem to be a way to opem or engage with text chat on PS5 so far as I can see.

Ir's been 25m since my initial post and I am only NOW beginning work on the Interior (Don't trust my time estimates, I base it off perception rather than reality, or so it seems.)

[ashen shore]

I decided to build the exosuit and killed all the sentinels including the giant robot boss. A lot of enemies and waves though. The exosuit is really useful

[indigo falcon]

you can always post in #nms-lfg-or-trades for stuff like that, you'll have to be patient because it's a low traffic channel

[stuck kayak]

@indigo falcon Thank you for the info! I'll head over there now!

[leaden saddle]

Is there a way to get the advanced mining laser in expeditions without going to the anomaly?

Im new

[indigo falcon]

it might be that a tech vendor at a minor settlement (or maybe there is one at a plantary archive?) would have it

[last umbra]

What do I do when my Corvette is stuck in Warp leaving the Anomaly? Playing on Xbox.

[indigo falcon]

alternatively, buyan mt that has one installed on it

I guess I just spent the nanites and bought the blueprint from the anomly, it's cheap

[leaden saddle]

Ok ill try that thx

[leaden saddle]

From what I looked up, I cant get back to the anomaly from expeditions until I finish phase 1

[indigo falcon]

beyond reloading last save point or... crafint an orbital uplink and using that, I don't have any bright ideas

[leaden saddle]

Ok

[last umbra]

OK, I thought that might be the case. Thank you.

[indigo falcon]

after first warp, you can call in the anomaly. you'll be ok until then

heck I went through the entire expd without it

[gritty condor]

can anyone help me finish the hitchhiking quest

[indigo falcon]

( can't do multiplayer, no subscription, sorry!)

[solemn bane]

FYI I snuck onto someone's corvette in the Rendezvous 5 space station. Other folks have used the Anomaly.

Also they rebuilt it while I was onboard and I got trapped, so I had to use an Orbital Uplink to get free, lol.

[rocky crescent]

Anyone willing to trade salvageable data for my frigate modules?

[indigo falcon]

just grab some from one of the dissonant sentinel worlds, find one without horrible weather

the corrupt sentinels won't care if you dig up buried tech, they won't hassle you

[gritty condor]

thanks for the tip that was the best way to do it, the anomaly was bugging out and making everyone's ships land in the same spot.

[solemn bane]

Yeah that was the issue I was having. Also ships being invisible or half-appearing. I feel like this was the only milestone I had to work for, lol.

[gritty condor]

that milestone took me almost as long as all the other ones combined

[lone marsh]

I have one more milestone (reaching the last area) before my expedition is over. Is there anything I need to know or do? Should i sell off everything I have or will the game kinda do that for me?

what items would you recommend i bring with me. Corvette modules?

[indigo falcon]

if you started from an existing save via the anomaly terminal, you can send some stuff back via the terminal, so things that you find useful rather than having them turned into units/nanites that convert over

try shoving as many corvette parts on the corvette as possible before then, you will need to copy the ship on the existing save side at the anomaly terminal, for a cost of some nanites, the cargo (stuff in containers) won't come back but the tech and parts will

so you might as well make a frankencorvette and get all your good stuffs

[lone marsh]

Ok I'll make a frankenship lol. My understanding is ill be able to buy back my expedition multitool when i go back to my main save so i assume that means all the modules. Will my exosuit modules carry over, or should i bring them? Will i also gain back all the slots i earned?

[indigo falcon]

exosuit modules do not carry over, if you got any really great one you could package it up and put it in the terminal. slots added don'tcarry over, sorry! not in ship nor mt nor suit

[mighty wedge]

anone in the last system in the route right now? I'm trying to take down one of the sentinel walkers, really struglling to bring them down. Are other players able to help with them?

[lone marsh]

lol welp shoot i got 2x slots every single system. That was a waste. Ok i think i'll just package up all of my good modules. THen make a frankenship. I didnt get really anything else of value out of this that i can think of.

[solemn bane]

This may help:

5. Weapons: I tend to use a Bolt Caster in a supercharged slot with no upgrades on a C class multi-tool, because Sentinels start scaling up quickly when you upgrade your multi-tool/weapon. After that, I collect Neutron Cannon upgrades (there are two S class on the expedition path, and 1 A class) then I switch to a fully upgraded Neutron Cannon (learned at the Anomaly) and laugh as I two shot a group of 6 sentinels.

[mighty wedge]

I'll give that a shot

[gritty chasm]

hey alll just finished my first expednition (19). whats the key things i need to do now to finish up? what should i take back?

[indigo falcon]

alternatively, skip walkers and just get a sentinel boundary map by other means (a milestone should have given you one, but you can get them from salv glass sometimes (slow drop rate) or from salvaged scrap while looking for corvette modules (better drop rate))

[indigo falcon]

scroll back like 10 messages in here and read 🙂

[gritty chasm]

oh cool so i can take my crazy looking ship as is too primary save?

[indigo falcon]

if you started the expd from anomaly terminal, yeah. when back on the main save you can copy it for a cost of some nanites

[gritty chasm]

so do i first "end expedition" and then do all the transfer stuff? anything i should do pre hitting that button

[indigo falcon]

there is some clever way to use those transfer slots more than once (which I do not remember) so let me not advise you incorrectly on this

[lone marsh]

that awkward moment when held down w instead of e to get out of ship after landing at anomaly

[solemn bane]

Oh right, I forgot the context of sentinel killing is usually One, Zero lol. Like apergos mentioned you can do this and skip the fight:

4. If you are having trouble with One, Zero, you can just go directly to a Sentinel Pillar to disable the sentinels. You can do so by mining Salvageable Scrap, they have a chance to drop a Sentinel Boundary Map you can use to find a sentinel pillar, OR you can check space station/Anomaly teleporters for bases near pillars OR you can wait to do this milestone until after you have completed Spacewreck which rewards a Sentinel Boundary Map.

[solemn bane]

If you still have optional milestones to do you have to hit end expedition before transfering items. If you can put items in the terminal, then you know that's when you can transfer items.

If you want to do it multiple times, put items in, save, and go to your primary save via the pause menu to pick them up, then return to the expedition via the terminal and repeat.

[lone marsh]

I think im roughly at the same point he is. So when these are greyed out that means i have to hit "end expedition" first and then it will let me transfer stuff over?

[solemn bane]

While on your primary save you can copy your ship, then if you edit the ship in the expedition and change a part you can go back to your primary save and copy it again.

[solemn bane]

Hopefully, it means you still have an optional milestone to do though.

When all the optionals are done it should just be able to accept items

[astral verge]

There is a rumor that you can keep everything freighter,cargo, etc if you wait til the expedition ends for everyone. True or False? don't know if i should end it myself or wait

[indigo falcon]

I was thinking of the transfer slots, not the multiple ship copies

[hoary grove]

Yeah go talk to the big robot eye thing at any space station

[solemn bane]

Yeah you can just go to any space station and do the thing you did at the other rendezvous stations to get that one. Easy.

[indigo falcon]

false.

[astral verge]

say less thanks!

[hoary grove]

Absolute cinema btw

[solemn bane]

Not true if you started the expedition from an existing save. If you start the expedition from the new game screen, you keep everything when that save converts to a normal save at the end. No need to wait for it to end.

[indigo falcon]

if that's a reddit post, I'd love a link; I'll leave them a nastygram

[lone marsh]

Ok so just to run it past everyone. I do want to copy my expedition ship so before i go to the eyeball. I should go to my primary save > make a copy of my ship > come back to expedition. Then go to eyeball which will open up these inventory slots on the expedition anomaly. Then I can put in all the cargo/tech that i can bring. Then Find the "End expedition" button and thatll do it... right?

[solemn bane]

You don't need to copy your ship first but sure

[lone marsh]

I can do it after i end the expedition?

Oh i will because someone said if i want to bring all the parts i should make a frankenship

[solemn bane]

Yep, at any time, until the next expedition

[astral verge]

got it thanks for the info

[gritty chasm]

lol i cant land in the dam space station it keeps trying to land and "lands me" miles outside the staiton

[indigo falcon]

the easy way to get all the parts over is to shove em onto the existing ship for when it's copied to the main save

also it's highly entertaining

[solemn bane]

Use an Orbital Uplink or teleport there via the Anomaly or another space station.

[lone marsh]

can you do an expedition over and over on the same save? or do you have to create a new save each time?

[solemn bane]

Has to be on different saves

[lone marsh]

ty. I still cant put items in my terminal at anomaly. im assuming i have to officially end my run to do it?

like go to "Final Phase"

[solemn bane]

Did you finish the other optional milestone?

[lone marsh]

i did i spoke to the eyeball but it didnt complete?

all the other phases say ive done them 100%

[solemn bane]

Go to a space station you haven't been to before, and make sure the milestone is selected

[lone marsh]

ive been to all of them on the path up here. I can go to any space station even off the expedition path?

[solemn bane]

yes

[lone marsh]

so i have it selected but it keeps showing this

[solemn bane]

Collect your rewards.

[lone marsh]

the final phase is the new reward but i dont want to do that because phase 5 isnt complete.

[solemn bane]

It won't matter

[lone marsh]

the optional milestone is 0/1

[solemn bane]

Leave any group if you are in one, turn off multiplayer, restart the game and try a different space station again.

[lone marsh]

ok it wont lock me out from putting my items in or having me upload my ship?

[solemn bane]

You will have to collect your rewards to use the terminal

[lament plume]

Just finished this expedition. Had this game for years and didn't touch if for long while. had 100M in credits and 6k nanites and A class ship and multitool decently upgraded. BUT I never did any other expedition and now i feel bad not doing any... would be cool when they switch to their new game they would open up the expeditions one more time....

[solemn bane]

Looks like you're on Steam so you can play them again with a workaround. Link in my profile.

[lone marsh]

This did it ty. Man i was sketched out.

i got a mecha mouse companion egg?

[indigo falcon]

this years' expeditions will likely be rerun at the end of the year on a compressed schedule (2 weeks per expedition) so it might be worth keeping an eye out for that too

[solemn bane]

You can't bring it but you can claim another one at the quicksilver vendor on your primary save

[lone marsh]

i remember you saying something about that last night now that i think about it

[indigo falcon]

eggs can't transfer. but all end phase/end expd rewards can be claimed once per save file, including saves you may make in the future

[low stag]

Does anybody on PS5 want to do the expedition with VR

[indigo falcon]

if you don't get an answer here in a while, you can try #nms-lfg-or-trades too, it's a low traffic channel though so you may have to be patient

[lone marsh]

also i imagine pc vr enjoyers could link up with you as well. Unless sony has you cut off. Idk if thats still a thing on consoles

[indigo falcon]

cross-play works between ps4/5 and the rest of the world for nms but I do not know about vr

[solemn bane]

I wonder what the success rate is of finishing an expedition in a group, considering how many problems have the solution of "leave group, turn off multiplayer"

[indigo falcon]

lolol

and yet people do it all the time. (I guess they might turn off mp, fix the problem, and then go right back to the group)

I see enough stuffgo wrong with the weekend mission done as a group... and that's only like 10 minutes!

[low stag]

I'm not sure about connectivity. I just need a bro to play with

[stiff glen]

man I was panicked because right on first mission there are abundant of hateful sentinels. I was focus on instruction of Link to the stars mission before even fixing my starship. and now I ended up in space station with no planes........ what should I do

[lone marsh]

so even if i hit "end expedition" ill still be able to transfer my ship over because the expedition is still ongoing for the community as a whole right?

[solemn bane]

Even when it's over you can transfer your ship until the next expedition drops

[lone marsh]

tyty

[indigo falcon]

this is intended. just folllow the expedition mlestone instructions, you'll be building a new ship!

[lone marsh]

im assuming the same goes for the multi tool

[solemn bane]

yep

[lone marsh]

❤️

[indigo falcon]

(in fact you cannot repair your starter ship in this expedition, it is damaged beyond repair.)

[stiff glen]

building corvette? how to get the parts then? I don't think I have enough money

[indigo falcon]

you are given some parts, have no fear.

[stiff glen]

okay Ill try to follow the milestone

[split merlin]

How do I find a Harmonic Camp?

[indigo falcon]

enjoy!

[stiff glen]

thanks!

[indigo falcon]

you'll be given an echo locator as a reward from a milestone

[split merlin]

Yeah I don't have one. 🤔

[indigo falcon]

"Wild things": scan 3 critters on a dissonant planet

so go do that then, or if you did it, claim the reward

btw a list of all milestones and their rewards is pinned in here, in case that may be useful to you

[split merlin]

Yeah, I did do that and I see I was supposed to get an Echo Locator...but I don't see it anywhere. (I did that before finishing the second phase though.

[indigo falcon]

check ship inventory too?

[stiff glen]

aaah you need to click the milestone to get the parts.... weird mechanics no?😂

[indigo falcon]

also if your exosuit layout is as screwed up as mine was, there are some isolated slots way down in the screen

it could have put one in there

[solemn bane]

If you lost or sold it, you can get another by killing corrupted sentinels (the big ones drop a blue thing that have a chance to have one) or shoot the big mirror guys, who have I think a 1/4 chance to drop one.

[split merlin]

Even checked my storage container that's onboard. Nothing.

[indigo falcon]

yeah the dissonant resonators drop them, you just need to be prepared to run away after shooting it

[split merlin]

Yeah, I did try that one...got an inverted mirror but was killed VERY quickly afterward. 😄

[indigo falcon]

ok, so plan b: craft an orbital uplink, get close to the resonator, if it says inverted mirror don't shoot it, if it says echo locator shoot it, then punch the uplink

[solemn bane]

You can just run away from them, they are dumb. Also put your shield in a supercharged slot. Also also

5. Weapons: I tend to use a Bolt Caster in a supercharged slot with no upgrades on a C class multi-tool, because Sentinels start scaling up quickly when you upgrade your multi-tool/weapon. After that, I collect Neutron Cannon upgrades (there are two S class on the expedition path, and 1 A class) then I switch to a fully upgraded Neutron Cannon (learned at the Anomaly) and laugh as I two shot a group of 6 sentinels.

[astral verge]

anyone know a trick to fix the nexus missions it just tells me to restart but that does not work

[indigo falcon]

is this the weekend mission?

[split merlin]

I didn't know you could tell that!! OK, I'll give that a shot.

[indigo falcon]

if so you're asking in the wrong place (you want the main channel)

[astral verge]

yea

[indigo falcon]

yeah get close enough and it tells you what it has, they won't attack you for just window shopping

[split merlin]

Awesome...thanks!

[indigo falcon]

so yeah this channel is primarily for chat and help with the corvette expedition, everything else you want the main channel or if they can't help out there, then -help

[astral verge]

got it thanks

[hoary grove]

When I look at my health hud area, a bunch of plus icons are greyed out, what does that mean and how do I "ungrey" them?
Can I increase them?

[indigo falcon]

yes, the right kind of upgrade to the suit makes that possible, and then you must either eat health restoring food or interact with those white health restorative boxes enough times to "fill up"" the extra plus signs.

[hoary grove]

I'll take a look thanks

[split merlin]

Gotta try another system..nothing resonated.

[indigo falcon]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Defence_Systems_Upgrade for more info.

[indigo falcon]

all th eearlier rendezvous systems have at least one dissonant world, some are better than others weather-wise

[split merlin]

Ice planet.

[indigo falcon]

whatever planet works best for you. you can fly low, get out of chair, look for the marker, tag it, fly there and so limit your exoosure to bad weather by just the period whre you beam down, run over to the resonatorto see what it has, run back and beam up (or shoot and then uplink) too

[lone marsh]

Thing is telling me i already copied my multi tool from my expedition to my main and i didnt.

I did copy it from my main to my expedition but not th eother way around

[solemn bane]

Oh I hadn't thought of that scenario before. Yeah it'll see it as the same multitool

[lone marsh]

;__; it wasnt

i changed it so much

[short shuttle]

to Vein, Starborn, thank you for helping me with the ride part of the exhibition 💕

[lone marsh]

it had so manygood parts

[short shuttle]

if I could type a thank you in game I would 🫶🏼

[low horizon]

ok I found my first derelict freighter. Am I supposed to shoot down the ship flying around it before I can land? I can't even see where to land otherwise

[solemn bane]

If it's broken in half it's not the right kind of freighter

[low horizon]

yes it is broken. there is a red symbol that says "derelict freighter"

there is also a ship flying around mining orsomething...npc ship that is

[indigo falcon]

yep wrong type. you want to have used an 'emergency broadcast receiver' or whatever they call it these days, to fid the derelict; you get one as a reward from a milestone

[tardy sapphire]

Installed the Deadeye cannon on my ship and then removed it. Now it is nowhere to be found. WT actual F guys?

[solemn bane]

It doesn't have an associated corvette part, you make it with materials

So when you dismantle it, it breaks down to materials

[tardy sapphire]

Yes it does. The part was a reward from the 4th section.

It was a physical corvette part that I placed on it.

[solemn bane]

Don't worry, I'm right

[tardy sapphire]

Simple observation would say otherwise.

Edit: I see how it's in the list. I am dumb, and I apologize.

[solemn bane]

It's like your pre-packaged Hazmat Glove

[solemn bane]

Simply observe you now how an extra solar mirror and whatever else in your inventory. If not you can report the bug:

[orchid harbor]

are there any screenshots of the rewards? is it worth doing an expedition?

[solemn bane]

It's mostly the mechanical mouse and a bunch of corvette parts. People have found the rewards lacking, but I enjoyed the experience.

[solemn bane]

Oh and the rewards are in the pins

[orchid harbor]

oki, thanks

[balmy pagoda]

I'm currently stuck on Phase 4 MS Off The Radar. The game doesn't explain well how to look for pirate-occupied solar system. I went to galaxy map and changed to conflict, but what colors am I looking for to warp to? I have the conflict scanner installed in the corvette.

[solemn bane]

Look for a skull in the system description tooltip in the galaxy map

[balmy pagoda]

OK I just found one. I just looked up another YT video said you have to have the economy scanner installed too but I saw one of the conflict icons say pirate controlled for conflict.

[solemn bane]

You need one or the other, or both

[raven bridge]

Can someone fly over to my expedition planet and lend me a few jetpack modules? Corvette got glitch stuck under a few solid trees and I died. Grave is on top of the damn tree

Looks can be deceiving but it's pretty high up

[solemn bane]

Can you just fly your corvette to it?

[raven bridge]

every time I try to position it so I can beam down to the top of the tree I'm off by a few meters

[solemn bane]

Spose you could build a temporary base

[raven bridge]

it's even worse than I thought, it's anchored to the bottom of the leaf of the tree so even if I hop out of the hatch and land atop the tree I can't get to the grave

UGH

[low horizon]

try to hpver over it and then skydive off the back

[low horizon]

try to use jetpack just as you pass it the leaf

[raven bridge]

tried that, there's some weird invisible flooring around the leaf, by the time I get off the invisible ledge I'm way too far from the grave. There's a leaf under it I can stand on, but when I jetpack up from it, an invisible ceiling is blocking me from accessing the grave too. It's ridiculous

I'm THIS CLOSE and I can't get to the freakin thing

[orchid harbor]

how am i meant to get in there?

[solemn bane]

Console to your left

[orchid harbor]

i've hit unseal like 5 times now...

imma go back to a restore point. see if that wiorks

[solemn bane]

Well, that's not good. I'd keep trying whatever you can think of for a while, because my guess is you need to relog and try it again, but you'll have to buy a new scanner for 5 million units in the back of a space station

[orchid harbor]

huh? why?

[solemn bane]

Those freighters don't like to stick around

[orchid harbor]

ahhh

it somehow spawned in the exact same spot, so i think it worked. we'll see

should i get the emergency supplies? for the cold protection?

[solemn bane]

Free is free

[orchid harbor]

fair enough

relog worked !! thanks

[frosty zodiac]

hey guys im trying to do the optional thing to ride one someones ship can anyone help me out with that

[solemn bane]

FYI I snuck onto someone's corvette in the Rendezvous 5 space station. Other folks have used the Anomaly.

[frosty zodiac]

it didnt disapear on you?

and drop you in space?

[solemn bane]

Several times. It was better in a space station though. Use the Anomaly to warp to one though since they can be hard to dock in.

[still gulch]

Hey! One question. I've finished every objective in the Corvette Expedition except for the "Resistance" one. It says it is at 100% but it doesn't give me a waypoint. Can we finish this objective or do we have to wait a little more?

[solemn bane]

Just go to a space station you haven't been to before and talk to the thing in the back like you did for the other rendezvous milestones

[hoary grove]

Highlight it, go speak to the space station robot eyeball

[still gulch]

Ohh, any station? Ok, thanks!

[hoary grove]

Should be different from RV5 I believe

[solemn bane]

I'm not sure what it is, but I noticed you have to do something between doing it at rdv5 twice. I tried going to the Anomaly first then back to 5 and it seemed to work, but just trying to do it twice in a row without some sort of warp in between doesn't work.

[hoary grove]

Hmm makes sense, even the objective markers are procedural 😭

[raven bridge]

I repaired an interceptor ship during the expedition because of the Expedition Anomaly milestone. Would it still be here after I swap back to my main save after finishing the expedition?

[hoary grove]

I don't remember a ship repairing milestone? @solemn bane

Anyways, the only ship you can bring over to main side is your corvette (assuming you started the expedition from an existing save via anomaly)

[solemn bane]

They probably meant a mission at the Nexus

[solemn bane]

Probably not

7. You cannot claim any sentinel interceptors you find. Also, most Dissonant systems and planets are not Dissonant outside of the expedition, so recording the glyphs or putting down a base may not help you get an interceptor you found. The first system, Killur VII, is dissonant outside of the expedition.

[split merlin]

Most of the stuff I got didn't transfer during the conversion. Cargo you might as well forget to have come with you. Most of what I even selected didn't move over. Put any corvette modules you want to keep on the ship somehow. Inside stuff, doesn't transfer. Lost my refinery, my plants, and my storages.

[raven bridge]

Ah darn. Also this is the milestone I meant, I was gunning for a derelict freighter but ended up being led to an interceptor ship. Thought since the expedition guided me to it maybe I could grab the ship

[solemn bane]

Oh I see. Yeah you didn't need to do the restore part, just the encounter completes the milestone.

[raven bridge]

That said I'm all out of anomaly detectors and zero derelict freighters. What's the best way to find one?

[solemn bane]

Cargo definitely won't transfer, but you're saying you put stuff in the expedition terminal and it didn't follow you back? That's weird. Hasn't happened to me (yet).

Your refinery, storage and living wall also should have transferred (they have for me multiple times).

Are you playing on console by chance?

[split merlin]

Nope. Steam on PC.

[solemn bane]

They don't come from anomaly detectors. You should have gotten an Emergency Signal Scanner from the milestone you posted. If you sold/lost it, you can buy one in the back of any space station for like 5 million units.

[solemn bane]

Same here, super weird. And I sent a SUPER complex ship over, right at the 100 mark.

[split merlin]

Got a lot of units and nanites...but yeah those things didn't copy so I have to find the stuff to make the refinery again. The storage was pretty easy.

[vague cypress]

But your corvette itself transferred? Mine is listed in my ships after transfer but even if I make it my active ship from a space station there’s just nothing there. Space station landing pad is just empty and freighter teleporter says no corvette docked…

[solemn bane]

One fix I've heard of is archiving all your non-corvette ships on your freighter then teleporting to your corvette. Back up your save first though, I've also heard some further weird stuff can happen.

[raven bridge]

Finished the expedition. So if I'm reading the pins right, before I click End Expedition, I should copy over my corvette to my main save? But I can't access the terminal to transfer stuff.

I don't have a freighter yet so I can't "archive" ships either.

[stiff glen]

in "one, zero" milestone, do we need to kill small sentinels shit in the last wave even when the sentinel walker already killed?

[wraith junco]

U dont need to fight imo . Use chart that u can get from digging scrap. Go to pillar and turn off sentinels

[stiff glen]

I see... thanks!

[orchid harbor]

......

you can bring items into expeditions???

[solemn bane]

If you can't put stuff in the terminal it means you still have optional milestones to do. you can either do those or click end expedition once then you'll have a chance to put items in. At that point you can either switch to your primary save via the pause and copy your ship, or just end the expedition fully and copy your ship once it puts you back on your primary save.

[solemn bane]

Yes. Killing the walker used to kill everything that was left, but now you still have to kill the healers etc to end the encounter.

[merry dune]

Do we know how they decide which expeditions to bring back? There are some old ones that I want to get rewards from but can not anymore

[hoary grove]

I've heard they do a redux (repeat) of all expeditions of that particular year in December

Really looking forward to the dinosaur one hehe

But yeah milestones and rewards change a bit apparently

[indigo parcel]

Same here

[merry dune]

Do they bring back the old ones like expeditions 7, 10, or 12? I really want some stuff from those ones

[hoary grove]

Don't know, but I see you're on pc, you can use a save editor to get the rewards or if you want to play them you can take a look at @solemn bane 's profile. ALWAYS MAKE BACKUPS OF YOUR SAVE

[merry dune]

I prefer to complete things myself is the only thing

That is why I was curious on if they would bring those back.

[hoary grove]

I can respect that 🫡

[solemn bane]

The thing in my profile they mentioned allows you to play them on PC.

As for how they decide to bring back old ones occasionally, nobody knows.

[warm helm]

Did the insane amount of crashes from 6.03 die down enough with 6.04?

[solemn bane]

I crashed a lot yesterday. Well, a lot in comparison to the never crashing that I did before.

[hoary grove]

Same, I was completely offline too

But I'm sure they'll fix it ASAP

[warm helm]

Yikes, I had a crash right as we got corvettes, where I left my ship to check out a crashed one, and my lovely AI minotaur landed on said crashed ship, crashing my game instantly 💀

It all happened so fast, I've been worried for my save file because I don't even think I was done saving

[solemn bane]

Well in spite of crashing 4-6 times nothing bad happened to my saves, so that's nice.

[warm helm]

Typically happens when I try bringing my corvette into the anomaly

It can't handle the spinny things when you fly in, ig 🤣

[solemn bane]

All mine felt super random. No one thing did it, I never knew when I was gonna get popped 😆

One happened when I turned in a friggin mission at the Nexus.

[warm helm]

Ouch

[solemn bane]

(did the weekly on the expedition)

[warm helm]

I still havent touched the expedition, was hoping to wait for a more stable update

Still waiting for my thunderbird landing bay to work properly, I keep clipping through it when it ascends 😔

[wraith junco]

Exp runned fine for me. Had to turn mp off tho bc pepole crazy corvettes builds where crashing the game

[orchid harbor]

is there any way to fish without the sentinels being a brat or are there sentinels on every planet in this one?

[solemn bane]

19. You can fish on a Dissonant planet and the sentinels will leave you alone (Corrupted Sentinels are not aggressive). You can also now fish out of the back of your corvette.

[orchid harbor]

ohhhh, thanks!!

thats a pin. isnt it...

[solemn bane]

Haha yeah

[orchid harbor]

lol, thanks

uhhhh. so if i want to bring anything back to my main save.... do i need to restart and select the expidition from the anomoly?

[solemn bane]

Yep

[orchid harbor]

✨ sigh ✨

i've already completed a whole bunch...... grrr

welp, there goes 4 hours

[solemn bane]

If it makes you feel better, this may be the most common thing people realize when they first do an expedition.

Probably should be in the pins. Well, mine anyway.

[orchid harbor]

lol, well... it is my first one

[raven bridge]

what's the difference between copying my ship prematurely versus copying my ship after ending the expedition completely?

am I supposed to strip it bare before I copy it over or....?

[solemn bane]

Nothing really, I just mentioned it because that method allows you to make multiple trips sending stuff through the terminal as well.

[solemn bane]

Speaking of, you can copy it, go back, strip it down then send the parts to yourself. But no you don't have to strip it down to copy it from your primary save.

[raven bridge]

So it's just a matter of preference? I want to transfer everything in my expedition save so I should probably copy > strip bare > send everything over > end expedition then. Thanks!

[novel thicket]

I've done all but the last frieghter salvage mission, been exploring for 2 hrs but its not completing and now the frieghter despawned on me. How the heck does one complete it

[final wave]

The derelict freighter one? I just explored one in full and walked out with the completion screen showed up

[novel thicket]

How do you know you've explored it all in full though? I clearly must have missed something. So flicking annoying 😑

[solemn bane]

Well, since it despawned you'll need another emergency scanner. Buy one in the back of a regular space station for like 5 million units.

After boarding the derelict freighter, read the pads until you get the credentials item, then you don't have to read anymore. Then go through the rooms and find three terminals that give you the Crew Manifest, the Captain's Log and the last one allows you to make a reward. Make sure multi player is off and you're not in any groups.

[solemn bane]

There will be three green checkmarks when you get the things mentioned above

Like this

[final wave]

There's like a general info displayed on the lower right of ur screen (if on pc, press H to show ur other missions) on how many areas of the freighter u have explored. Can't remember exactly but there was a checkmark that will apear once u explored it fully

[novel thicket]

OK thanks, looks like I'm missing the engineering unit. Guess now I have to find another frieghter.

[raven bridge]

which is rarer? I got the Pillar at a Sentinal Pillar and the Atomiser at a Harmonic Camp. Trying to see which one to transfer to my main save from expedition.

[solemn bane]

Take em both if you like them

[raven bridge]

oh we're not limited to one?

awesome

thank you

On your primary save you can copy your active multitool on the expedition. So you can jump to your primary multiple times and copy multiple multitools if you change your active one in the expedition between

[remote thunder]

dont forget to save before switching "contexts" (return to primary/resume expedition)

[orchid harbor]

how can i scrap my corvette? so i can reroll the supercharged slots

is it even possible?

[solemn bane]

Not on the expedition. On a non-expedition save I think you have to trade an NPC for it then scrap that ship.

[orchid harbor]

ahhh, dang. thanks

[hushed oasis]

which tech is considered the maneuverability tech? I'm already almost maxed on pulse tech

hmmm, I htink I misunderstood, need to add ship engine modules, not tech upgrades

[solemn bane]

Yeah for the maneuverability it's thrusters, and you can go past the "max" to finish the milestone

[hushed oasis]

thanks

[stiff glen]

I want to end my expedition but I can't add cargo to bring back to my primary save. what am I missing? or we can't transfer it to primary save? (I start from primary save, not new game)

[solemn bane]

You may have rewards to collect or you still have optional milestones to do. You can click end expedition if you want to skip the optional milestones.

[stiff glen]

aaaa got it. thank you!!

[final wave]

I think u can locate them faster by talking to an npc that sells scrap underneath a space station's stairwell. They can reveal to u the location of a derelict freighter for a price (last time i checked it costed 5 million units for me

[granite spindle]

How do you get on the abandoned freighter witht he corvet? I can't make the jump to it and you fall off the map into space.

[cyan pecan]

You should be able to land on the blue dots next to it

Then beam onto it

[granite spindle]

How do I beam onto it? I found the blue platforms but again, can't reach the frighter by leaving my ship.

[cyan pecan]

Press the red button next to your open hatch

[granite spindle]

Thank you so much wtf I didn't even know that was there.

[cyan pecan]

lol yeah, I never use it. You have to use it for freighters and atlas stations

[solemn bane]

CC @granite spindle you can use that button to beam down to the planet when your ship is low so you don't have to land/take off anymore. Pretty much the best feature of corvettes.

[vast prism]

This was one of the best expeditions I played so far. It was a blast making ships and trying things. Thanks for that experience Hello games!

[lost lagoon]

Dear gods this expedition is taking me days. I don't know how people do it so fast. I am a brand new player though.

[wraith junco]

Check pins for tips

[idle sand]

how do i report a base

[faint mesa]

Quick menu ("x" if you are on PC). There will be an option there.

[novel thicket]

Thanks, I managed to hunt down a pirate npc, and completed the mission, I just ignored everything except the 3 computers. This one was less of a maze than the first one.

[gilded helm]

Anyone had success hitching a ride on someone’s corvette from the anomaly?

[strong saffron]

I cant say i enjoyed the expo. Not enough explanation, corvete building is clunky and should be more "structured" to help players understand how to build a basic vessal. No story and the camera was so shaky all the time. Could not understand how to land on a trade depot. The missions to add corvete modules just because are pointless. I did not have a good experiance. 3 out if 10

[bronze fractal]

getting one more shield for my milestone is hard work, picking up every other part apart from something to do with the shields

[cyan pecan]

Right, I forgot about that though because I honestly love jumping down to planets now

[hoary grove]

Shields are an advanced part, you have to trade for 1 shield, anything above 50% probability should get it done

[bronze fractal]

ill try it ive picked up quite a few parts now

[limber arrow]

Is it still the cursed expedition rn or the new one is out?

[faint mesa]

This one is the Corvette expedition

[limber arrow]

👍🏻

Thanks

Haven't been on for a while

[sleek talon]

I just dismantled my corvette because I wanted to change it about and I lost the mission radar internal item. I get that they'd be also deconstructed, but I don't have any of the materials?

Is this intended?

[surreal tulip]

Yeah, just messaged in the chat

Is it possible to somehow take all the received and found ship parts with you after the expedition?

[blazing pelican]

Do I have to start a new game save to do the expedition?

[frosty pine]

Go to the anomaly and talk to the expedition console

[blazing pelican]

Okay thanks, I take such huge breaks between playing this game I forget every time

[weak trench]

anything worthwhile taking back from expedition?

[frosty pine]

You can take back 1 multitool and 1 ship, with whatever tech they have equiped (you need nanites in your main save to rebuild them), and then you have a tech and item section when you go to finish the expedition where you can take back stuff not in the MT or ship.

Everything not carried over converts to credits/nanites and carry over together with the quicksilver to the main save

[indigo falcon]

you'll go to the qs vendor to 'claim expedition rewards' for all end phase/end expd rewards on any save including the main save

[toxic salmon]

Didn't see it mentioned in the pinned comments, do we need / any recommendations for stuff to be carried from main save to expedition?

[wraith junco]

Not much u need tbh.

Just stuff that makes your life easyer. Ship slots , nanites cash items etc.

[faint mesa]

Some chromatic metal perhaps, but just to speed up things a bit on the start

[toxic salmon]

Can we take nanites and units multitools and stuff? All I have are cargo slots and technology slots

[faint mesa]

You can take items that refine into nanites, or tech modules that you can sell for nanites I guess; and valuable items for selling

[toxic salmon]

Ah that, yeah I see.

[wraith junco]

U need to get to anomaly first to get the stuff so i think by the time u get there u wont need it anymore

[toxic salmon]

In the expedition or the save?

[wraith junco]

In expedition

[toxic salmon]

Ah okay

[faint mesa]

Gonna spoiler this. Don't read it, Sayantak. 😅
||The first item you use to "teleport" yourself to the space station requires a bit of chromatic metal; usually you'd have to find some copper, refine it etc. Or take it from minerals||

[toxic salmon]

Thanks XD
I love the community here, makes the game feel much more alive.
Here I go to make my first corvette o7

[wraith junco]

Thats super early imo before getting to 2nd rdv

I did it on starter planet

[faint mesa]

Yep. One of the first things you do.
||Jumping the chromatic metal gathering saves a bit of time there (but I'm biased, I never like getting chromatic metal lol)||
