nms-expedition

[chrome gust]

Honestly the expedition just feels really buggy.

[solemn bane]

I'm guessing you sat in your chair when you had a wanted level? If so yeah that's a lingering bug. You can get them to come at you by shooting a space station. It will bring out a LOT of them though.

[solemn bane]

Also yes this is definitely true, lol.

[astral verge]

So I completed the Expedition, in the "Shared Inventory Cargo" that i can send items back to main save...is it best to send back corvette modules are other rare items. If i do not put in corvette parts will i still keep a copy of the ship?

[solemn bane]

At the point you can send items back to yourself, you can put items in the terminal, save, switch to your primary save via the pause menu, collect your items from the terminal, switch back to the expedition via the temrinal and repeat. So you can take everything.

[astral verge]

nice thanks!

[lost lagoon]

For the Corvette modules I can do that method too? I was going to try sticking as many as I could to my ship and transferring the ship lol

[solemn bane]

I was actually about to say I recommend not putting all your corvette parts on your ship because some people have complained about their corvettes vanishing after they copy it over. But yeah you can send corvette parts via the terminal.

That said though, I have put all my corvette parts on my ship and copied it over six times, so.

Who knows what is actually causing the vanishing corvette bug 🤷‍♂️

[dense basin]

It seems to be related to multiplayer

I avoid doing expeditions in multiplayer for the most part because it's usually buggy at the start

[low horizon]

oh boy..lol...so the corvette refiner and nutrient processor share the same recipe pool making one unavailable/unusable

actually make both unusable

[dense basin]

Maybe take the nutrient processor out and then put it back?

[wraith venture]

!Network

[unkempt kraken]

We've received multiple reports of connection issues affecting multiplayer and the community expedition. Due to timezone differences, it's unclear when Hello Games will address them.
-# Try Downdetector for status updates. For reports, go to hellogames.zendesk.com

[solemn bane]

Try moving them to different locations in your corvette

[low horizon]

ok

[low horizon]

that worked

apparently having them back to back glitcvhes them out

also found a duplication glitch

[chrome gust]

Dang I might have to lower my graphics to enhanced.

[idle dune]

so i transfered my corvette from the expedition and its invisible and i cant use it

[solemn bane]

Shot in the dark, but try leaving any group you may be in, turn off multiplayer, relog, go to your freighter and archive any ship that isn't that corvette then teleport to it.

[chrome gust]

Hopefully it’s less laggy outside the expedition.

[solemn bane]

Turning off multiplayer helps a lot for me

[idle dune]

ah yes the spaghetti code solution

i will try

[chrome gust]

Might have to do that unfortunately…

The plants in my corvette probably aren’t helping.

[idle dune]

teleport error // no corvette docked

[solemn bane]

And you archived all your other ships?

[idle dune]

ya

[chrome gust]

Wish there was a better way to dock ships at bases and trade centers.

One more phase to go.

[solemn bane]

Well damn. It's a relatively common problem and I haven't seen any solution yet. Maybe the experimental branch fixes it? Maybe try going to a space station and editing it.

[idle dune]

yeah its invisible in the station too

i physically cant edit it

[solemn bane]

Ugh, I'm out of guesses

[idle dune]

i think they didnt test this update

[chrome gust]

It’s gonna be so nice to see all the stuff I discovered again when I finish the expedition.

[idle dune]

you know what else would be cool? letting us disassemble corvettes to get the parts back

[solemn bane]

I wonder if the invisible corvettes even exist. Like if they are even in the save file or if it's just an empty parts array. If it is empty, there's no fix that will save them 😬

[idle dune]

oh boy if thats true then the devs will get a lot of unhappy reviews

[chrome gust]

I’m very curious about what made the sentinels so aggressive in the first place…

[solemn bane]

Specifically this:

"ForceAllSentinelsAggressive": true,

[idle dune]

their ships turned invisible

[solemn bane]

lmao

Maybe that's why the sentinel interceptors don't show up when they should

Full circle

[chrome gust]

I wish they didn’t make the process of getting corvette parts annoying

[solemn bane]

Easiest way is to get up from your chair and scan using your multitool scanner from your corvette then fly over and shoot the ground with your photon cannon.

[orchid harbor]

[idle dune]

11 million units damn i only got 6

[chrome gust]

16m units received so far.

[orchid harbor]

can i send my corvette back?

wait... pins. nvm

[idle dune]

technically yes but itll be invisible

[solemn bane]

If I had to put a number on it, I'd say it happens to 1 in 20 people

[orchid harbor]

should i convert all my money and nanites into items?
Or can i transfer that directly?

[solemn bane]

It transfers directly, quicksilver too

[orchid harbor]

alr, thanks

[solemn bane]

Anecdotally, I coped my ship over six different times on six different saves and none of them turned invisible. I have no good guess as to what the issue could be or what causes it.

[orchid harbor]

possibly items in it?

[solemn bane]

I mean it's possibly anything

[idle dune]

mine was completely empty

[chrome gust]

I’m in a pirate system, how are there sentinels?

[orchid harbor]

where do i select my multitool and ship to send back?

[solemn bane]

There will be an option at the expedition terminal when you are on your primary save. It will be your active ship/multitool. If you want to take multiple multitools back, you can switch to your primary save in the pause menu, copy, return to expedition, change multi tool, save and repeat. Same goes for items, just save in between.

[orchid harbor]

oki, thank you!

[clear wave]

Could anyone help me do the hitchhikers challenge?

[solemn bane]

I did it by going to the Rendezvous 5 space station. The Anomaly was too buggy for me

[clear wave]

Oh thank you

[orchid harbor]

Can I do it multiple times on the same save? It's a good source of inventory upgrade slots if you decline when it prompts you

[solemn bane]

Not through conventional means, but you're on PC so you can start an old expedition offline then start this one again, or you can just play old expeditions since they all give inventory modules. Link in my profile.

[orchid harbor]

Would I get the rewards from the older expeditions? Or only if they rerun them?

[solemn bane]

You'll get and keep all your rewards as if the expeditions were re-run.

[orchid harbor]

Thanks!! I'll give them a shot

[tender sluice]

It’s very strange. I’ve been able to start the expedition from my console without any problems, but my wife hasn’t been able to from hers. She tried deleting the game to download it again, and we even loaded her save on my console… and nothing. In the menu, it says that there are no active expeditions yet, and it has to be something related to the user’s save file. In the menu to start a new expedition it says “downloading data,” but on my console everything is already downloaded. She’s just as far along as I am—we completed the entire main story and much more. This is my wife’s first expedition and she was really excited, I hope they fix it soon!

[solemn bane]

It's because nms caches the expedition config locally. She probably hadn't opened the game since the expedition dropped, so she doesn't have the cached config.

If you're on PC there's a workaround: #nms-expedition message

Otherwise yeah you'll have to wait.

[tender sluice]

Thank you very much for your comment! Well, I’m not sure if that could be the case for us. Ever since 6.0.0 came out on PC, we’ve been playing—even the whole drops weekend—and in the following days we both kept playing, earning money and nanites to be ready for when the update finally arrived on Switch 2. We both stopped playing at the same time, and yesterday I downloaded the update first on her Switch 2 and then on mine. So, it’s really strange. I could try installing it on PC, since I have it through Game Pass, but I’d run the risk that she wouldn’t be able to play afterward, as her save would update to the current PC version (6.0.4?) and then it wouldn’t let her load it on Nintendo Switch 2, since that’s still on 6.0.0. I mean, I know people who have had exactly this issue.

[wanton raft]

Are the servers back up?

[solemn bane]

It wouldn't matter when you downloaded the update, but when you opened the game.

[solemn bane]

Still offline for me

[tender sluice]

That’s why I’m saying it — we both stopped playing over a week ago at the same time. Yesterday I installed the update on both consoles just a few minutes apart, and we basically jumped into the game almost at the same time, like a minute or two difference, no more.

[lethal estuary]

How hard can it be to host one JSON file? Cloudflare will host it for free. This has also been an issue going back 4 years at least based on a google search. Just bizarre.

[solemn bane]

lol yeah. I guess it's because they need special logic for Switch and whatnot, but still. You'd think they could just point at different URLs or something.

[wicked horizon]

Hi
How do I reach the derelict freighter if the jetpack is blocked on it? It is literally impossible to reach it from the corvet parking platform

[solemn bane]

Red button in the back of your corvette, on the left

[wicked horizon]

Thanks!

[lethal estuary]

It’s not platform specific that this doesn’t work. I can’t start the expedition on both PS5, MacOS, and Switch 2.

It’s weird to juxtapose this with the huge amount of other stuff delivered over the years. They have done much harder things well!

[olive salmon]

My vette refiner only accepts food items. Cannot refine any minerals at all in it. Only food items and plants can be refined, in the refiner on my vette

[solemn bane]

Hm, I agree that would have had to have been some pretty incredible luck. You can see here when the reports started coming in: https://downdetector.com/status/no-mans-sky/

[normal steeple]

fwiw on my switch 2 the expedition terminus says no expedition available. so, i’m in the same boat.

[solemn bane]

Oh, I just meant the reason they may not be storying it as a static file is because there is some logic around which clients can and cannot have it sometimes.

[solemn bane]

Move your refiners etc when this happens

[rugged forum]

Will I keep my freighter and all my frigates if I end the expedition?

[solemn bane]

Not if you started the expedition from an existing save.

[rugged forum]

Damn alright. What’s the best way to sell them? Is it possible or just unfortunate loss lol

[solemn bane]

Freighters you can only trade. Frigates I have no idea.

[rugged forum]

Alright cool. So before I end it I should:
Pause and unpause transferring all items through the menu.
Deconstruct my freighter and send all the parts

Anything else?

[solemn bane]

Before you deconstruct you can copy your ship over to get double items, basically.

[rugged forum]

Awesome thanks

[rugged forum]

You get nanites for the frigates got a lot

[solemn bane]

Oh right, that makes sense.

Anything for the freighter itself?

[remote thunder]

also in !faq-expedition , "finishing an expedition"

[minor terrace]

Still no expedition thus far

[wraith venture]

Yikes. Still not showing for you?

@remote thunder haven't the server issues resolved? Or at least it looked that way from Downdetector's site

[craggy spear]

Does anyone have the system name for each rendezvous station please?

[remote thunder]

i'm still seeing players reporting failure

[wraith venture]

#nms-expedition message

[wraith venture]

with multiplayer too?

[craggy spear]

Tyvm

[remote thunder]

i saw someone reporting matchmaking issues, i assume that would be related

[wraith venture]

Yup, same issue then. I guess their servers continue to struggle, just maybe not as bad as last night based on Downdetector

[faint mesa]

Is that the reason people couldn't start the expedition on Switch 2 yesterday? Or was that an unrelated issue?
(Sorry for jumping in like that, hello all!)

[solemn bane]

That's the reason yeah

Some bum luck

[faint mesa]

Oh, thanks. I was wondering if they needed one of the post-release patches or something

[supple mist]

As a new player, should I run the corvette expedition or do more story first? I think I'm about to unlock the anomaly.

Also, what's the best way to run an expedition mechanically? I see a lot of posts about starting it from your save or not and failure to receive rewards/loot and I don't understand.

[solemn bane]

This is a tough one, because I could see a new person having a difficult time with it, but corvettes are so much nicer than other ships if you know how to use them. But then as a new player you may not appreciate them 😆

There's still some weeks left so maybe do more story then start the expedition on your current save so you can pass the goodies back.

Plus maybe they'll fix some bugs by then, lol

[minor terrace]

Nope, nothings changed. Guess the expedition was available to us for all of three seconds lol

Im debating on if I should just do the expedition on a seperate file since my main one is currently inoperable

[solemn bane]

If this post is accurate, that may be very close to true: #nms-expedition message

[weak grove]

Is the expedition out on switch 2?

[solemn bane]

Technically yes, but the servers are down so you can't play it

[weak grove]

Ah ok is there a role here I could get a ping for when they're up

[solemn bane]

That sure would be nice. Maybe drop a comment in #discord-server-feedback

[weak grove]

Maybe

[supple mist]

@solemn bane when you say start it on your current save what do you mean? I'm guessing that's something other than starting at the game login menu, but how exactly?

[wraith venture]

Sad times

[solemn bane]

Oh right, you can either start the expedition on your current save in the Anomaly, or you can start it on a fresh save. When you start it on an existing save, you start a sort-of-new-game, and at the end you return to your old save but you can send stuff back from the expedition.

[supple mist]

Ooh that makes so much more sense. Thanks!

[cedar steeple]

hey there, somehow cant finish the delerict freighter mission

is this a known bug or is there a workaround?

[faint mesa]

What's happening exactly?

[zenith nacelle]

I’ve completed the expedition in a new save as I’ve always done, but for future reference when I start an expo on my main save do I go in with all my equipment?

[solemn bane]

Leave group if you're in one, turn multiplayer off, relog. When it's fixed you should see three checkboxes in the lower right hand mission info box.

[solemn bane]

I go in nekkid.

[zenith nacelle]

Interloper actin up

[solemn bane]

Makin the sentinels blush, showin them all my interlopes

[cobalt stump]

No but you can bring some amount of stuff with you

[zenith nacelle]

Thanks. I think I’ll continue to do the new start just bc I don’t want to risk losing anything. Plus it’s more fun I reckon.

[cobalt stump]

I don’t think you risk losing anything, and I think you have an advantage of bringing stuff back with you to your normal save

And you don’t have to bring anything with you, it starts you off from square 1 just like if you do it from a new save

[solemn bane]

People talk about losing their saves due to expeditions. I've played hundreds of hours of just expeditions and it's never happened to me, but 🤷‍♂️

@zenith nacelle It's the same experience regardless, you just use your current character's cosmetics and you get to send swag back to your main. If you're worried, just make a backup of your save beforehand.

[cobalt stump]

Like the only thing I usually bring are some warp cores so I don’t have to mine resources to make more

I mean play the way you want, but I’m not sure why I would do the expedition in a separate save tbh

[cedar steeple]

it worked, didn't see that i needed to do the logs too. run straight to the end

thank you

[wraith junco]

For safety i start exp on new save too keep my main save safe from expedition bugs

[solemn bane]

Sure, but just making a backup of your main before starting will accomplish the same. I think you can do that with like PS Plus or something like that? But yeah if you're not able to make a backup I can understand being weary, given what other people have experienced..

[wraith junco]

I have ps4 and i can just copy it on pendrive. No need for ps plus cloud storage.

I do backups from time to time

[remote pine]

hey lads, can anyone help me complete the "ride another player's corvette" mission?

[elfin hemlock]

Can anyone in here help someone in the first system with some gold? They're having trouble with not enough gold for the mission radar on the corvette, the game wont let them fly the corvette to get gold and nobody is responding to them in the station. Can someone in the expedition teleport to the station for some gold?

[remote pine]

unfortunately there is a lot of instances with 20 playerscmax each for every system.

[elfin hemlock]

ah. I didnt realize the max was so low.

[remote pine]

to connect with the one session reliably (not by chance) they need to be friends with the player

[tight lynx]

How long left in the expedition

[remote pine]

low? It used to be 8 haha

[solemn bane]

The game won't let you fly your corvette? Maybe turn off multiplayer and relog

[solemn bane]

I took a portal to the Rendezvous 5 space station to do it. The Anomaly was too buggy for me.

[tight lynx]

How long left in the expedition

[elfin hemlock]

Not me, someone in the #nms-questions page. I finished yesterday

[elfin hemlock]

I tihnk until Oct. 14th?

[tight lynx]

Yeah I got time

[remote pine]

the issue is that while I am on a busy space station, all corvettes I board don't take off. I wait for who knows how long

[solemn bane]

Yep. Fun times.

[remote pine]

they can be fun if someone responds here lol

[dry robin]

Quite new to the game, and just finished the expedition. Can I still find more corvette parts if I go back to the base game?

[autumn hearth]

Yes! Just find planets with salvageable scrap. Pull up your vison and find the nodes to break

[blazing pelican]

My corvette no longer has the option to drive it :U

I tried reloading and that did not fix it

I also tried summoning it and re-summoning it

[solemn bane]

hm, did you try remaking it? Just move the necessary parts around

[remote pine]

I boarded a corvette on anomaly after talking to its owner

We flew out, warping to their system started

game crashed

[arctic crystal]

Ok guys I’ve not played in a while, any tips for this expedition

[remote pine]

absolute cinema

[solemn bane]

Try to be lucky.

[remote pine]

try doing missions in order, turns out a lot of em give rewards needed to complete the following ones

[solemn bane]

Oh, for an actual answer (unlike my previous one), check my pinned posts

[remote pine]

nothing wrong about completing something out of order if there's a possibility, just check if a previous mission has handy rewards

[blazing pelican]

It says "part picked up" and then immediately "Cannot delete core infrastructure while in flight!"

its parked on a planet and i have no other ships since I'm doing the expedition

I even closed the game and reopened it

[solemn bane]

Wait, so you're on the space station and your corvette is on the planet?

[remote pine]

because you can only move/delete big parts via space station corvette interface (there's one on each corvette parking spot)

[blazing pelican]

No, I'm on the planet with my corvette. No option to pilot the corvette

[remote pine]

you can make the thing that teleports you to space station

[solemn bane]

Make an Orbital Uplink and get thee to the space station

[remote pine]

you just need to gather some metal

[blazing pelican]

Okay I'll try that, thanks, I forgot that was a thing

[solemn bane]

Literally the best thing in the whole expedition

[blazing pelican]

It fixed it thank you so much

[peak harness]

is anyone else on PS4 unable to complete the Aperture Expedition Milestone?

[solemn bane]

Leave group if you're in one, turn off multiplayer, relog, take a picture of your whole corvette with the in-game photo taker

One or all of those should work

[peak harness]

odd, i had to change from Easy Screenshot to the default for it to work – thanks though!

[valid roost]

Wrong channel ik but I just want to check, has it definitely been confirmed voyagers isnt coming to switch 1?

[wraith venture]

!Switch

[unkempt kraken]

As announced, Nintendo Switch 1 & 2 got the Voyagers 6.0 update on <t:1758038459:d> (<t:1758038459:R>).

-# Unfortunately, content from Voyagers including the Corvette-class starship and the community expedition did not make it to Switch 1.

-# Although Switch 2 has the full 6.0 update, if the expedition is not showing for you, try #nms-questions where fellow players may be able to assist with troubleshooting. If the issue persists, please report it Hello Games via hellogames.zendesk.com.

-# ⚠️ Neither console is on the latest version other platforms are on (6.05). Cross-save and Switch 2 cross-play won't work until your platform's save number matches the others: 6.0 150560 (4188) / 6.0 151034 (4190) -- Run !NmsVersionsin #bot-spam for more info.

[valid roost]

Maybe it will be on switch next week?

6.0.5 dropped and thats usually the last patch for an update isnt it

And new skins aren't all too difficult to implement, especially for the Nintendo switch with outdated hardware

And theres this

[peak harness]

what can i bring from the expedition back to my primary save? i’ve finished the expedition and woukd like to keep everything, but i don’t know if that’s possible

[solemn bane]

Most things. Not eggs.

[solemn bane]

Usually the last patch for an update?

[peak harness]

oh? will you have to hatch the egg and register it as a companion in order to keep it?

[valid roost]

Yeah

[solemn bane]

Pets don't transfer either. You will be able to claim the mouse on your primary save at the quicksilver vendor

[solemn bane]

What does that even mean tho 😆

[peak harness]

i imagine i’d get to keep my corvette, but i don’t know about my multi-tool

[peak harness]

ah alrighty

[solemn bane]

You can copy them for nanites when you're on your primary save

[peak harness]

nice!

[valid roost]

Oh, that for each update i only noticed it ever go to 05, 25 and 75, never 06 or 07

Unless im wrong, then by all means feel free to correct me there

[peak harness]

units & nanites don’t transfer over do they?

[solemn bane]

I definitely don't see that pattern

https://www.nomanssky.com/release-log/

[solemn bane]

They do, as does Quicksilver, and you get extra nanites and units for certain things you've done

[peak harness]

nice! ty

is it possible to transfer/copy a freighter?

[solemn bane]

nope

[peak harness]

awwh :<

thanks for all the info!

[valid roost]

What i mean is im not sure there'll be a 6.06, is what im saying

[mystic bridge]

Is it known bug thta this setup still causes bay to flick open?

[valid roost]

As said, i could be entirely wrong on that as I only started paying notice to the version number relatively recently

[solemn bane]

I think it's just based on the number of bugs remaining. 6.0 was especially buggy so I wouldn't be surprised if there's gonna be more.

[jolly flume]

How long is the expedition going to last

[mystic bridge]

three weeks more

[tender sluice]

Right now my wife can already see the expedition on Nintendo Switch 2, I suppose it must have been a server issue.

[peak harness]

can items in the corvette workshop transfer/copy over to primary save?

[solemn bane]

Nope, you'll need to take them out and put them in the expedition trminal

[peak harness]

ty!

when copied, is the starship’s/multi-tool’s technology copied too?

[solemn bane]

yep

The corvette will look like it's missing all its tech from parts, but that's just a bug. Unless they just fixed it

[peak harness]

righty

both starship and exosuit cargo are lost though i imagine?

[solemn bane]

Yep

[tulip pewter]

When I beat expedition can I go back and forth from my original save multiple times to get full inventory from expedition over to main save?

[solemn bane]

Yep

[tulip pewter]

Do I hit end expedition or do I have to do something else to accomplish that?

[solemn bane]

If you can't transfer items it means you still have the optional milestones. If you're sure you want to skip those you can click end expedition and that will lock you out of finishing those and allow you to transfer items.

[dry robin]

Can we transfer multiple times or just once?

[solemn bane]

Multiple

[toxic salmon]

What would be the best way to get corvette parts?

[lucid pulsar]

SOSes

you have to get planetary maps of SOS, I found couple of parts this way with no intent

[autumn hearth]

Just go to a planet with salvagable scrap, put your corvette into auto pilot, scan for the spot, mark it then use your ships guns to blow it up

[lucid pulsar]

crash sites are easy too 😄

[toxic salmon]

I see
Any tips for the exchanging thing? I assume that I can't buy basic modules and send them for exchange?

[autumn hearth]

Just trade less common items that you dont want. make sure you un stack items so they arent getting everything, and attempt trades at every tier. Sometimes you can get lucky and trade with low chances

[winter prairie]

impossible to transfer corvette back to main save??

[solemn bane]

This is definitely the fastest way. I fill up my inventory in a few minutes

[solemn bane]

Possible if you started the expedition from your main save

[winter prairie]

i did

how do i go about doing it lol

[autumn hearth]

are all your missions done?

[winter prairie]

yes exepedition fully complete

[autumn hearth]

Oh just got to the anomaly on your main save

[solemn bane]

When the expedition is fully ended and you're on your primary save you can copy it at the expedition terminal for nanites. You can also switch to your primary save from the pause menu and copy it at any time.

[winter prairie]

can I switch back to exepediton to play with friends even though mine is completed?

[solemn bane]

Not if you clicked end expedition and got that rewards screen

[toxic salmon]

None of the corvettes pf pther people load in for me, at the anomaly. How the heck would I do hitchhiker?

[primal rock]

I found out on my Switch 2 I was able to start the expedition from the terminal in the Nexus but I couldn’t start it as a new save in the home menu.

[solemn bane]

Try at one of the Rendezvous space stations. I did mine at Rendezvous 5

[toxic salmon]

I snuck into someone's corvette and sat in a wall XD
Lets see if they take off.

How screwed am I if they take off for another system?

[solemn bane]

You can just call your ship if it dumps you

[toxic salmon]

I can still get to the sapce station of that system and call my corvette right?

[limpid lichen]

So you can play the expedition in this way? Strange , i was thinking was for server problems we cant play on switch 2 yet 🤔

[static tapir]

What rewards do you get from completing this expedition?

For your main save that is

[solemn bane]

In the pins

[toxic salmon]

Got Hitchhiker done
All missions complete 🙌

[winter prairie]

which i can only do at the anomaly exepedition guy right.. im free to switch back and forth as long as i dont end it with him

[solemn bane]

It's a terminal but yeah

[winter prairie]

thanks

very helpful

[toxic salmon]

What should I take back from the expedition to the main save?

[solemn bane]

Whatever you like!

[toxic salmon]

What about the ||companion egg||? Doesn't seem like I can transfer it.

[solemn bane]

You can claim one on your primary save at the quicksilver vendor

[toxic salmon]

And do I need to transfer corvette parts? I read somewhere that I can get the corvette on the main save for nanites..

[solemn bane]

Yes to the second part.

Multitool, too

[toxic salmon]

Nice, okay

As a new player, my expedition mt is better than my main save one XD

I'll take the good tech upgrades for my suit.

[minor terrace]

Wait for expedition to finally be released
Start it
Instant file brick

Mfw

[solemn bane]

oof

[minor terrace]

Thats now two files ruined by this update

I cant place a refiner to make chromatic metal, it says "no edit permissions" despite multi-player being turned off

[sage finch]

got this error in 2 different dissonant systems now. both are populated and definitely dissonant. halp

[faint mesa]

Any bases around?

[solemn bane]

Report the base in the quick menu

[solemn bane]

Probably need to try another, but if you want to make doubly sure you can leave group if you're in one, turn off multiplayer and relog.

[sage finch]

damn I'm wasting all my warp fuel on this. also I don't have friends so I'm never in multiplayer 😭

[solemn bane]

The Rendezvous systems should work, just teleport to them

[sage finch]

I kinda wanna make sure this isn't gonna happen again before I toss my supplies at it

the what

oh

[solemn bane]

Go to a station teleporter and the space stations will say (Rendezvous 1) etc

They are the systems you have been going to for the milestones

[sage finch]

tysm! it worked

[elder axle]

Can I ride on someone corvette for rhe milstone

[solemn bane]

FYI I had better luck at one of the Rendezvous space stations than I did on the Anomaly. You use the Anomaly's teleporter to get to one (I was able to do it on 5)

[autumn hearth]

Could do that or find some random person on a planet and stowaway

[wanton frigate]

Woohoooo here we go!

[cedar steeple]

really enjoyed the expedition. great job 🙏

[queen oriole]

Am I the only one who is basically unable to play the expedition due to insane performance drops on the switch 2?

massive frame drops, low FPS, Stuttering etc

[solemn bane]

Have you disabled multiplayer? Is that even a thing on Switch?

[queen oriole]

I turned off multiplayer

yes

[autumn hearth]

whats your settings like?

[queen oriole]

The switch 2 doesn't have settings

[autumn hearth]

for the game? thats wild

[pearl nacelle]

why cant i copy my starship? is it because it's a corvette?

[snow ruin]

Makes my habit of taking a backup of my game files before starting expeditions (from main save) seem reasonable XD

[solemn bane]

You can't have any other ships in this expedition

[pearl nacelle]

why the FUCK not

yo

i have to deal

with this shitty ass hyperdrive

and these puny ass guns

the entire expedition?

[stark whale]

the expedition's theme is corvettes

[pearl nacelle]

yeah i slapped some pretty nice weapons on my main save corvette

and i wanted to use my main save corvette

[snow ruin]

Do you have enough nanites?

[pearl nacelle]

nanites isnt the issue i dont think since the multitool button wasnt greyed out even when i didnt have enough (i got 3395 now)

[solemn bane]

"AllowSaveContextShipTransfer": false

[sage finch]

from what I understand that's part of the whole challenge of the expedition. it also puts players all the way from permadeath to creative mode on level field. I get it, I'm a creative mode player too, but yeah having my regular save stuff would make me way overpowered in the expedition

and bored

[pearl nacelle]

im not a creative mode player lmaoo

i earned my busted starship i deserve to bring it wherever i PLEASE

[sage finch]

oh well sorry for offending you lol

[pearl nacelle]

ur good i wasnt offended

im just annoyed because oh my god fuck the terrible hyperdrive
thank god i brought stuff to sell for nanites so i could upgrade it asap

[sage finch]

yeah I just put down my game a minute ago because I ran out of hyperdrive fuel and don't feel like figuring it out right now. my main save is free crafting because I just got tired of like 4-step recipes just to fuel one thing and carrying all the ingredients

[red sinew]

Just finished the corvett expedition did I beat the game?

[sage finch]

you beat expedition 19

they're not technically part of the main game missions

[red sinew]

💀

[sage finch]

I think the main game is kind of ongoing so if it helps, I guess no one really beat it

but idk a whole lot I'm usually stoned when I play

[normal steeple]

should i take some runaway mold with me on the expedition? i have 6357 laying around.

i haven’t played in a long time so i don’t remember a lot of stuff.

[dapper depot]

does the expedition work on switch 2 yet?

[ashen shore]

What are reward for doing the event?

[wraith junco]

[ashen shore]

Mobile makes it difficult

They ruined everything a few updates ago

[wanton frigate]

Yep. Just started it myself.

Waited years for multiplayer.
30s into the expedition at the crash site, try to dig up a module.
You do not have edit permissions
Hell truly is other people

[dapper depot]

nice. hopefully it works for me

[hollow shore]

Be aware you can report other player bases near, using the quick menu. This will make any obstructing base near you, disappear for you. May have to repeat in case of multiple

[wanton frigate]

Cheers. I know this in theory but it's never been necessary before so I couldn't find it under pressure 😄

[dapper depot]

the expedition works

[fluid helm]

Anybody wanna do the Hitchhiking Expedition objective?

[queen oriole]

I literally cannot play the expedition on switch 2 the performance issues are insane

It’s a stuttery laggy mess

Multiplayer is turned off

Yes

[inner elbow]

Expeditions are limited time missions for rewards, completely separate from the main story

[dapper depot]

ive only played for about half an hour and it’s completely fine

[queen oriole]

I left the starting planet got my corvette and tried to go to the desert or the snow planet

Both planets are insanely laggy and have terrible stuttery framerate issues for me

Borderline unplayable was giving me a headache

I’m on my regular save with my corvette doing just fine

[remote thunder]

i'd suggest fully restarting the switch, and trying again. maybe even in full offline mode if possible.

[fluid helm]

managed to find another player to do it on the 4th rendez-vous station

[remote thunder]

i havent even started exp19

i need to get on and be done with it

[halcyon elm]

LFG to do the expedition Hitchhiking milestone

[woven heath]

Playing on switch 2

Cannot load a save it immediately crashes when entering

It saved when I was on a corvette entering the atmosphere of a planet

[carmine dome]

I’m surprised they even tried putting it on the switch

If I’m still in the expedition and the event ends then will I be booted out

?

Because I started kind of late, I’ll be quite busy the next few days and I don’t remember when it expires but I believe it was soon

[woven heath]

I think so I think it auto converts to a standard save

But we have like a month

[carmine dome]

Oh good, I thought it expired like tomorrow

[fluid helm]

Can you copy your Corvette ship made during the expidition to your main save, like you would regular ships and multitools?
what's the cost? (units/nanites? amount?)

[ebon oyster]

Hi everyone, its the first time I did an expedition since I got the game long time ago. I just completed all the objectives, but now I have the doubt: will my corvette and multi-tool transfer to my main save? How the hell do I do that? Will they also transfer all the installed technologies?

[carmine dome]

I heard the reward for beating the expedition was getting the stuff you earned transferred to the main save

[fluid helm]

like on top of the cargo transfer done at the Anomaly's Expedition Terminal?

[carmine dome]

I don’t mean the cargo transfer. Don’t you get everything you earned in the expedition in your main save as soon as you’re done?

Including the corvette(s)

That would be annoying if you didn’t

[halcyon elm]

lfg expedition hithhiking milestone on ps4 if it matters

[carmine dome]

That’s what I understood from the introduction page to the expedition

[blazing pelican]

So if I have been storing all my corvette parts in the cache during this expedition, do they transfer when I end my expedition?

[west temple]

Items convert to units/nanites and transfer to your main save. Then once back in your main save you can replicate corvette/multitool with nanites at the exp terminal.

[ebon oyster]

So many doubts before finishing the expedition right now lol

[carmine dome]

I have a month to figure it out. I’m sure it’ll be fine.

[blazing pelican]

Like all items in any inventory / storage / anything I stored ANY item in during the expedition?

[west temple]

Pretty much (not sure about what’s in storage units…)

It all converts to currency, so if you want specific things, use the exp terminal to transfer them to main save

I think technology installed in ship doesn’t transfer, just the ship as it’s built.

[ebon oyster]

So, we will need to reassemble our corvette entirely from scratch?

[west temple]

Nah it’ll be built as it was, but installed upgrades like weapon buffs etc. I think don’t

And parts you don’t have built on the ship get turned to currency so if you want them use the item transfer for them.

I think you can transfer items to main save before completing the expedition if ya wanna be tedious about bringing a bunch of stuff back.

Just gotta go back and forth from main/expedition

[ebon oyster]

Time to choose my favorite 8 technologies then

[west temple]

Yep 👍 I just did my best with picking when I finished, then let everything else become nanites/units (which payed for the ship, tool, and some!)

[ebon oyster]

Thank you for the help, time to check everything. I actually forgot some of the things I had in my main save lol

[blazing pelican]

It says "cannot transfer companion eggs" at the exp. terminal, I can just claim it from the regular place anyways despite this right?

[indigo falcon]

yep the end exp and end phase rewards can be claimed at the qs vendor once per save, includes eggs too

[carmine dome]

There’s several things about this expedition that I didn’t expect but I feel like I should’ve. From the expedition called the Corvette expedition giving me a free Corvette ship. To the fact that it’s a larger ship meaning that it won’t be as fast or nimble, and the fact that transferring entire saves worth of materials to a different save, will be more complicated than what I’m used to

I knew I would get a Corvette at some point, but I thought I would just have to like earn it slowly, rather than being given everything I need to make one on the first mission

[sick silo]

If anything the Corvettes I’ve had have been just as nimble as my regular starships

[carmine dome]

Then maybe my Corvette is just slow, I don’t know. It’s top speed is 200 units per second slower than my normal starship and they’re both C class.

And the controls are definitely less sensitive

I’m talking about the basic thrusters, of course

[lament badger]

Mine handles like a space elephant

[sick silo]

Yeah I’ve found mine turns pretty fast, haven’t clocked top speed or acceleration though

[lament badger]

Resorted to using my custom fighter for precision stuff until I can play with the corvette more

[sick silo]

Think it boils down to the thrusters and maybe the landing gear modules you have

[lament badger]

Probably

Is it possible for me to build a large version of my little fighter for a corvette lmao

[sick silo]

Potentially, I haven’t messed around enough with it

[carmine dome]

Doesn’t the free Corvette from the expedition just give you the same parts every time?

[sick silo]

Yeah but you can still scavenge additional modules from planets with the Salvageable Scrap resource

And then trade those in for other modules

[lament badger]

I need more narrow wedge/wedge corner parts. I love my ships to be needlenosed and angular 😱

[sick silo]

Mine looks like a doorstop lol

[carmine dome]

Well, that might explain it. I just started the expedition and I’m still using the default parts. Either way, I’m sure Corvette parts are as variable as starship stats anyway.

[sick silo]

Oh yeah it can get pretty crazy

Plus I wouldn’t be surprised if they add more at some point

[carmine dome]

I’m still under the impression that Corvette ships would be slower than starships just because of the mass difference

Maybe you just have a way better Corvette than your starship

[sick silo]

Nah, starship is a Sentinel A-class

Again, I haven’t clocked the forward speed and acceleration in the corvette, but the turn speed is about on-par with how I have it rigged

[carmine dome]

Then idk, I just made my first Corvette earlier today so we’ll see

[wanton frigate]

Can you get functional modules (interior space / engines / landing gear / cockpits) from salvage or is it all form parts?

[sick silo]

You mean like can you find the stuff out in the world?

Yeah, any planet tagged with "Salvagable Scrap" should have salvage pods you can loot for a few parts

[wanton frigate]

The stuff I've found so far are shapes that add no function. Can you find habs in the wild?

[sick silo]

pretty sure you can find every part from that, yeah

it's just rarer

I've pulled reactors, shield modules, the occasional hab

[cunning sandal]

the Corvette Ships are so clunky when they move. I'm still going to use my regular S-Class ships

They need to tune those up so they're not so clunky when they fly.

Even if you build a small one it's the same thing

[grim delta]

The decorative modules are valuable too since you can use them to trade in for functional parts.

also yea corvettes need a whole lot of bugfixing.

I was refining a whole bunch of rust on my corvette and when I checked it just deleted it all.

[cunning sandal]

I tried to refine mold on the refiner on the corvette and I went back to it a second later and it just disappeared. I just went back to the old way of doing stuff. Because It needs a lot of bug fixing

So you're not the only one that it's done that too

[grim delta]

When I docked my corvette at my freighter earlier

it kinda just

despawned.

and almost bricked my save.

so that's nice.

[cunning sandal]

I was playing with a friend the other night and that happened he docked his corvette And then we turned around and it just disappeared

[grim delta]

like it treated it as I had active gravity instead of floating and I was just standing on the top of the freighter unable to get in, reloaded my save, and was flying but tried to enter the corvette and it despawned again.

so I reloaded a second time and flew AWAY from my corvette and used the recovery ship option to instantly get inside

then it worked.

[cunning sandal]

It's funny the things that we have to go through just to play the game sometime but we love no man's sky so much that we put up with all this crap lol

That too and they have gave us non-stop DLCs and updates for free so much respect on that

[grim delta]

they'll probably patch it soon enough anyways

[cunning sandal]

Oh I know they will👍

[grim delta]

like these are pretty serious bugs lol

[cunning sandal]

I had a bug from From the first expedition from this year it took them 6 months to fix that bug.

[grim delta]

This update (and the steam sale) are actually what got me to finally buy this.

[cunning sandal]

I know and I give them Bug reports and stuff all the time cuz I somehow find all these weird bugs and I send bug reports in

Most of the bugs are from the expeditions too and I've noticed this it's not when we have an update

Although world's part 2 did throw out a whole new batch of bugs

[grim delta]

Its to be expected

No such thing as an update that releases flawlessly.

like I've heard of developers specifically testing for certain bugs they're worried about, not finding them, releasing the update, and then that exact bug becomes a serious problem even though it literally doesn't exist on the development build.

game development must be so annoying lol

[cunning sandal]

lol it is i been doing it for a long time lol

[craggy lava]

How long does it take till you can harvest plants in the corvette? I planted starbulb and they look fully grown, but cant interact

[tulip pewter]

I am coming back after a long time away. I just finished the expedition. Anything I should make sure to bring to my main save? Looking forward to getting on main save and going wild

[hoary grove]

Try to bring orbital uplinks if it lets you, can't craft them mainside for some 5head reason

[hoary grove]

Use the scanner on them to check remaining time till harvest

[low horizon]

is there anything I should do with unearthed treasure or aquatic treasure beside from selling it?

[tulip pewter]

Should I bring everything since I have no idea what is good to bring or not? Is everything possible?

[hoary grove]

Slot in items once it lets you, then switch to main side using pause menu and empty the slots, switch back to exp side using pause menu and repeat. Did not do it myself, was content with items turning into units and nanites

Bring in some cake as souvenir, show it to the guy on anomaly you'll get a decent standing boost

[tulip pewter]

Thx. When I hit end expedition it still lets me come back and get more items?

[hoary grove]

Switch using the pause menu. There are two buttons one is end and other is finish. One unlocks the slots and the other wraps everything up for good, don't remember which one does what

[craggy lava]

is aquiring ships disabled in expedition mode?

I cant use a brain to find a monolith thing

[indigo falcon]

yeah you are supposed to have only the corvette. save your echo locators and use them back on the main save or after the expedition ends

[craggy lava]

Does that mean I can hold onto all the ship/inventory augments as well and use them on my real character/ship?

or do they transfer over if whether you use them or not?

[hoary grove]

Don't use them, bring them over through anomaly

[indigo falcon]

if you started the expedition from an existing save, via the anomaly terminal, you can shove stuff into the slots at the terminal for retrieval by the main save, for resources and such. if you started it from a new save, you keep everything you have and your save becomes a normal mode save at the end of the expedition period.

[tulip pewter]

Who do we show cake to?

[dusk marlin]

I just started my expedition run. Despite the recurring game crashes (Switch 2). It appears stable for the time being! Let’s go!!

[low horizon]

hi all. I see in corvette parts storage that there is a cargo storage box but I can't select it when building the ship. is that just a trading piece?

also are some parts not able to be rotated? I have a set of pieces that goes skinny to large (forgot the name) from back to front and I want to change it front to back.

[hoary grove]

Someone you trust lol?

Nah jk some chef guy on the anomaly, vykeen class I believe

[hoary grove]

Part rotation is infact a little finicky from my experience, specially the habs
Not sure what you mean by storage parts, are you talking about ship interior or an external corvette build part?

[chrome gust]

Definitely gonna leave a base in one of the expedition systems before I complete it so I can go back to it afterwards.

[hoary grove]

I recommend the atmosphere less planet at RV4 or 5 I believe, jump diving for minute+ is so therapeutic

[solemn bane]

FYI the aggressive sentinels will be gone, as will most of the dissonant planets.

[solemn bane]

Not implemented (yet?)

[chrome gust]

Good I want the aggressive sentinels gone, I just want a base for the memories.

[solemn bane]

I wanted a dissonant planet. Oh well.

[silent pasture]

Is there a list of recommended things to bring when you end the Expedition? All I've been able to find so far is to put as many Corvette pieces onto your ship before you leave, is there anything else you should do before ending?

[solemn bane]

Assuming you started from an existing save, just bring whatever you like. You can put corvette parts in there, you can also package up your tech modules and send them. Also when you're able to put items in the terminal it means you can put items in, save, switch to your primary save from the pause menu, collect your stuff at the terminal, switch back to the expedition at the terminal and repeat, in case you have more stuff than will fit.

[dusk marlin]

Bruhh my first corvette I’m making from the basic habs rewarded after first teleporting to the space station, looks like a damn soviet russia era Moon Rocket! Da fuc lol 🤣

[balmy pagoda]

I started a new save for the Exped instead of going off my main save. When I complete the it will it let me keep all the parts in the corvette workshop caache to use in the main save? Don't really care about the corvette ship itself since I was just learning how to build and it's a crappy ship lol

[solemn bane]

Congratulations, comrade.

[silent pasture]

Thank you

[solemn bane]

You will keep everything on that save, none of it will go to any other saves (aside from tha ccount-wide unlocks like the egg). You'll have to start the expedition from the Anomaly on your "main" save if you want to be able to send stuff back/copy ship/multitool.

[balmy pagoda]

Ahh OK I always forget what stuff is account-wide unlocks vs local/save unlocks. Wasn't sure if it was in the FAQ or Wiki.
I am alway reluctant to play expedition on my main save in case something gets corrupted lol

[dusk marlin]

[solemn bane]

Mostly the phase rewards are unlocks that can be claimed by any save at the quicksilver vendor. If you have PS plus I would just backup my save before I start an expedition.

[balmy pagoda]

No I used to PS Plus until 2023 but decided not to renew when they hiked the prices way up,. I mostly play on Steam now with the NMS cloud save feature copied from my PS save. But then sometimes switch back to PS5 to use PSVR2 on it

[solemn bane]

Oh, in that case easy enough to just back your save up on PC before you do an expedition.

[balmy pagoda]

I will do on the next one will have to look to see where NMS stores the saves on PC, then maybe need to disable Steam Cloud and NMS Cloud as well?

[solemn bane]

You can type !faq-savefiles in #botspam.

I don't think you'll have to disable any cloud stuff? Just manually restore the save, load the save and save. Then when you close the game Steam will just update the cloud save.

[hoary grove]

Slightly off topic but how has your experience been with VR as a tech in general?

[wraith badge]

A mate loaned me his VR kit and I played Elite Dangerous and NMS in VR and they are FANTASTIC in VR, the only thing that lets Elite down is there's no on-foot VR for the Odyssey on foot stuff. Other than that if you get the chance you should try both games in VR.

[hoary grove]

What would be the primary compute component if I were to try VR on pc?

Like for video games it's the GPU, is VR CPU heavy?

What about on board processing?

[chrome gust]

I found a corvette design I like on Reddit that had a build tutorial, so I built it before I finish the expedition.

[balmy pagoda]

It's been OK on PCVR, not really optimized for my system. There is another bug where someteimes the game doeesn't recognize the gamepad at all and have to use the motion controls the whole time. I like ot switch to gamepad controls flying the ship vs the virtual controls.

[wraith badge]

Well I used my old PC which was: i7 3820 @ 3.6GHz, 64Gb DDR3, GTX 1080Ti and the game installed on a normal HDD and both games ran fine ... wonder what it would be like on the new PC ... hmmmm

[wraith badge]

The PC version has not been picking up the controller either ... a few restarts and it gets it in the end.

[night fox]

was this part of the expedition supposed to give me actual plants..? cause i didnt receive anything

[solemn bane]

They are actually plans, you can build them in the build menu (I recommend Frostwart as it's only a 12 minute grow time)

[night fox]

so i still have to collec the plants

[solemn bane]

And an additional resource, yeah.

[wraith junco]

U got only blueprints

[wanton raft]

Too bad you can't use the corvette parts right out of the storage boxes.

At least it seems like you can't. Just tested putting a bunch of parts into the storage and it looks like those things are no longer available to me.

[faint mesa]

If I recall correctly they have to be in your inventory yes.

[wanton raft]

I think that at least lately in freighters you are able to use things right out of the storage boxes. I was kind of hoping for that with this.

[solemn bane]

It's weird they didn't at least have the multi-storage interface like with freighters

[wanton raft]

Oh, is it different? I was adding things to it the same way so far I thought.

In that way, it seems the same to me where you can add to all the boxes with overflow to the next.

[solemn bane]

I mean like this

https://i.redd.it/5h6ks3j4mcs91.jpg

[wanton raft]

Oh, yeah that.

I actually haven't used that in quite a while.

I mean, I've used the freighter tab, but I do remember when there were more tabs for each box or something.

Were or are. Maybe I've been glossing over it and under using it.

[wanton frigate]

Can you build corvettes out of parts in the corvette-component-specific storage thing that's beside the build terminal on space stations?
I'd check myself but I'm at work and I haven't built a fake monitor to hide my Switch 2 in yet. Yet.

[faint mesa]

Gotta transfer the parts there to your inventory if you want to use them Corrected below!

[solemn bane]

That's the only way I do it

[solemn bane]

This is not correct. You're thinking the on-board storage containers

[wanton frigate]

just to confirm - when you are facing your corvette there's a terminal in front of you that lets you build, but there's a terminal to your left that appears to be 120 slots of storage for corvette parts, and I'm asking if when you use the Build terminal in front of you, it lets you draw from the contents of that pool on the left. Just making sure I conveyed that properly the first time.

[faint mesa]

Ooops. My bad. 😅

[solemn bane]

Yep, I think it's called a cache or something

[grave lantern]

Hello! Just wondering, is there any disadvantage to leaving the expedition with several weeks left if I've finished all milestones and transferred my ship/multitools/inventory?

[faint mesa]

None, I guess, aside from being unable to interact with players still in the expedition mode (some players stay to help them, build bases etc.)

[minor laurel]

If you want to take all the parts you acquired in the expedition back to your main save, attach them to your ship and copy it across. You can dismantle it at a space station and the parts go into the cache.

[hardy geyser]

umm guys where did my derlict go... do I have to get another signal...

[olive jackal]

If I stash Corvette parts in my cache in the expedition. Will they be available on my main save when I'm done with it?

[solemn bane]

Probably. They can be sneaky. Make sure to leave group if you're in one, turn off multiplayer and relog to be safe before doing another. You can get a scanner in the back of any regular space station.

[solemn bane]

Nope.

[olive jackal]

So before i finish the expedition should I sell all of my parts? Assuming credits transfer

I'll sell the entire ship. 😂

[solemn bane]

Nah, you can send them back to yourself in the terminal. But if you just want the cash, all of the items in all your inventories will be turned into units/nanites, so you don't have to bother with that.

[olive jackal]

Will it convert to units from the cache as well?

The parts after

[solemn bane]

I haven't actually tested it but it should.

[olive jackal]

I'll find out soon enough lol. Thanks for the help

In the expedition when is the anomaly available

I don't remember what I did on my save file. Believe it was part of the quest line

[solemn bane]

After you warp once. You may need to board the space station and leave, not sure if they fixed that

(Also don't know if it is/was even a bug)

[olive jackal]

Hehe. Thanks

Worked. Warped and it's available

[solemn bane]

Boarding the space station wasn't necessary?

[olive jackal]

I already visited it

[wanton frigate]

I warped once and got the Anomaly too, no space station.

Is it just me or is this a really quick one? I've put maybe 2 unfocussed hours in and I'm pretty much done with phases 1-3 apart from harvesting plants 'cause that takes real time.

[olive jackal]

Got some modules, warped and it was available

[hardy geyser]

guys I accidentally deleted the log due to bug

[ripe dock]

So I need to make this uplink, which needs Chromatic Metals, which needs a refiner, but after running straight away from my ship for 15 minutes now I still cannot place a refiner because I don't have build permission

[hardy geyser]

can I still complete the derlict freighter...

[woeful niche]

Is it worth taking corvette parts back to your main save or are they easy enough to get?

[solemn bane]

It's pretty quick, as long as you don't hit the crazy bugs and/or know how to work around them already

[wanton frigate]

Same thing happened to me. If you can find the base computer, you can flag it and it will get removed. And if you can't, you can lace up your running shoes....

there's also an option in the quick menu apparently

[woeful niche]

disable multiplayer

[olive jackal]

I'm not taking them since most are rewards and can be claimed later

[ripe dock]

Didn't even know that was an option!

[olive jackal]

Hopefully!! They get auto sold from my parts cache

If not so be it

[solemn bane]

Do you have the mission indicator in the lower right of your screen?

[solemn bane]

Report the base in the quick menu

[woeful niche]

ok. These weren't rewards but I dug them up. I think I will do the same and just let them get sold

[hardy geyser]

I got the eng unit but everything above I dont...

[solemn bane]

Wait what, sure there is

[olive jackal]

I don't know if y'all want a guide but this is why I'm following to streamline the expedition

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/s/VDTDG74Ptk

[solemn bane]

Go back and get those from the terminals maybe

[hardy geyser]

ok I reload my previous save thank god didnt save the wrong time

[hardy geyser]

the log was gone before

thank god

got it back

[olive jackal]

I also brought Uranium with me lol. Not crafting 😂

[wanton frigate]

if this is about me saying "apparently" - I wasn't being sarcastic, I just haven't found it myself. I was advised to look for it yesterday but I'd already run away and found some editable ground.

[solemn bane]

Oh, I read it wrong, ha

[solemn bane]

FYI you'll still see player bases with multiplayer enabled disabled

[woeful niche]

Then I was very lucky, because I never saw a base near my Radiant Pillar, and I could place the portable refiner (I rearely play with multi-player enabled)..

[hardy geyser]

holy fk now the derlict is gone again like this pic brotha... so fking bugged

[solemn bane]

Yeah I didn't have the issue either when I did the expedition online twice. Only way to avoid bases though is to play totally offline.

[solemn bane]

Weird. You have multiplayer off?

[hardy geyser]

yeah turned it off

idk

[solemn bane]

yikes

[hardy geyser]

hold what if I delete log

and try

ok idk

idk how I respawn the derlict before

[hardy geyser]

this log is needed to complete the dericlit right

[solemn bane]

You need the Crew Manifest, Captain's Log and to interact with the engineering console at the end. That will get you three checkmarks and the milestone will complete

[hardy geyser]

so I do need it?

[olive jackal]

This expedition is going to STACK my main account with all these upgrades, modules and cargo.. wow

[solemn bane]

Yes, the Crew Manifest is in the picture. I've never deleted it so I dunno if you need to keep it, or just get it

[hardy geyser]

bc I got to the end with tp back out but I didnt get the achievement so Im assuming u needed the log

fk man do I have to start an entire new derict

I gotta grind 5 fkin mill

idk should I hope and wait it to load

or just buy a brand new

and start over

[solemn bane]

I can't imagine it would just load. Luckily it's easy to make lots of money in this expedition.

Gravitino Balls and/or shooting Salvage Scrap from your corvette

[hardy geyser]

can u make another restore point save as backup

[solemn bane]

On PC you can backup your saves, I know consoles have some options

[hardy geyser]

fk imma just wait and hope the derlict randomly spawn itself back

in the meantime imma just take a break and come back to it later while afk

if its not back by then guess I have to buy a new one

like the beam is not working either

idk

I guess the freighter derlict is weird with corvette

[solemn bane]

Derelicts can be troublesome regardless

[balmy pagoda]

Yeah it's annoying, not sure why it doesn't detect it in game when it shows it's detected on the Steam page (wired via USB)

[wraith badge]

Yeah same, wired 360 controller ... started playing on the Xbox, same for Elite too, so naturally got a controller for the PC saved having to learn a new control schema

[fringe star]

The PC controller issue seems to be so random. Sometimes it works at start and sometimes it doesn't though STEAM sees the controller just fine

[hardy geyser]

anyone know how to do this?

[solemn bane]

Go to a station you haven't been to before and talk to the thing in the back like you did for the other 5 milestones

[hardy geyser]

How many more times I need to do this?

[solemn bane]

1

[valid roost]

It's a little off topic, its the wrong post, but I have to say i'm immeasurably disappointed with Sean

He ended up putting up a post with the patch notes for 6.05, and explicitly said it was out for all platforms while switch 2 is on 6.0 and switch 1 doesn't even have the update

Not really the best move, and almost like Nintendo doesn't exist, though i'm probably sounding more butt hurt than I need to about this (or it's mostly Nintendo causing the huge delay)

[digital skiff]

Question if I copy my Corvette over to my main file, do I get all the modules?

[hardy knot]

You gotta bring the modules from the expedition with you first

[solemn bane]

yes edit: no, they meant cargo

[solemn bane]

I assume they mean tech modules installed in the ship

[hardy knot]

I was talking about the modules to build it also

[fringe star]

Copy them too

[solemn bane]

You mean in the cargo? Or actually attached to the ship?

Well, either way, cargo is not copied over.

[fringe star]

Either transfer them individually or make a monstrosity of a ship to copy over

[digital skiff]

So you can copy over your ship, then deconstruct it and transfer those modules over

[solemn bane]

Yes, if you switch to your primary save via the pause menu to copy your ship before fully ending the expedition

[wanton frigate]

Given they were one of the few companies that had a Switch 2 Dev Kit I don't think it's unreasonable to expect them to have seemed a little more invested in the platforms.
Nintendo's slowness has nothing to do with the Switch not getting Corvettes, which I presume HG knew about given they wrote the code....

[valid roost]

It might still get them, but if it doesn't then its up to Hello Games to tell their switch players the full update won't be available

Instead of claiming all platforms have it

At this rate if they say they're impossible to implement on switch 1, thats fine, and it would be unreasonable to complain about it

But its the issue of miscommunication and the fact they said 6.05 was for all versions that confused me a bit, as switch 1 is still out of the picture (reworded what i initially said as it caused some heads to turn)

[olive jackal]

So before doing this Spacewreck expedition. Anything I should know going in ?

[halcyon elm]

lfg hithiking milestonme

[ripe dock]

They REALLY need to fix Corvette landing

[fringe star]

I try never to land. Teleporting to bases has gotten a bit better

[stuck marsh]

hi, im on switch 2. everytime i check the expedition page it says that there is no expedition avaliable. i never done one before. is there a specific time that it goes active or something?

[fringe star]

Still not out for Switch2

[lucid python]

just keep trying, i just finished the expedition on switch 2

you just have to get lucky

[stuck marsh]

lucky!

[lucid python]

make sure you hold the power button on the switch 2, go into power settings and do a full reset, not just sleep mode. that's what i did and it came back on and the expedition was there

[stuck marsh]

ok, thx

[lucid python]

good luck

[halcyon elm]

I've completed the expedition and it's not giving me the option to transfer my stuff over or end expedition

I can copy my corvette but it's charging me nanites and I not transferring any mods I thought we were supposed to be able to transfer it over for free

[young warren]

Looking to hitchhike, willing to help in return.
Currently at rendezvous 5 and in the anomaly.
mink in-game

[wanton frigate]

The expedition is out but your game has to sync up with the HG server. It's a switch 2. You're probably docking and undocking all the time and it disconnected. Press +, go to the discoveries tab and press x to connect to online services. Then bum around the anomaly for a minute.

[potent field]

My Freighter tho has 3489.5 range with its Hyperdrive.

[arctic crystal]

How do I get on somebody else’s corvette?

It always flies away without me

[stuck marsh]

im pretty sure they have to invite you to their group

[young warren]

Look for mink on the anomoly and I can invite you to help.

[young warren]

I can invite if you post your in-game name.

[low horizon]

exterior corvette part...can't think of the name atm but I can post it later today

[molten rune]

Guys, how u complete the stardiving mission? (im on switch2 btw)

[ripe dock]

Fly up to nearly space and jump out the butt. Hit your jumppack a few times, but leave enough to land safely

[molten rune]

I did that but it only count as 0.5s

[remote thunder]

have you read this pinned post <#nms-expedition message>

it recommends hitting the jetpack all the way down

[molten rune]

Oh thanks i checked pins but didnt notice that

[normal steeple]

is it safe for me to sell salvaged scrap like crusty inlet and experimental pneumatics in the expedition?

[wanton frigate]

Go to an airless planet. There's on in the rendezvous 4 system. You can free fall there from the top of the atmosphere to ground without jetpack and it takes over a minute

[dapper depot]

guys where can i find a verdant planet

[wicked oriole]

i think any planet with star bulb counts

[dapper depot]

ok in what system can i find one

[wicked oriole]

lots of different systems, just scan each planet until one of them says star bulb

if one system doesn't have one, the next system you jump to probably will

[faint mesa]

From earlier reports, apparently rendezvous 2 system has one.

[dapper depot]

really?

[faint mesa]

Indeed I remember doing this milestone in one of the rendezvous systems

[dapper depot]

i didn’t see one

[faint mesa]

Planet just needs to be lush I think.

[dapper depot]

found it

thanks

[winter rover]

Well. I'm a fkin idiot. I'm doomed to die and I literally just started the exp

[faint mesa]

If you can't reach the sodium, just dig a hole in the ground until temperature stabilizes

[storm falcon]

What is the weapon from the expedition do

[steep shale]

I've never done any smuggling.
How is this goal accomplished?

[faint mesa]

• find an outlaw system
• go to the space station, buy illegal goods
• go to a regular system
• sell them in the galactic terminal for great profits

In this expedition there's a milestone that requires you to use an emergency warp -- I'd pair it with this one. Two for one.

[steep shale]

Figured as much.
Let's see if I can do that right.

[wanton raft]

Guess you can't even "buy" a free ship in the expedition? Any way around that just to be able to scrap it for money?

[indigo falcon]

note that the illegal goods are the ones with purple text. buy a couple hundred k worth at least to be sure it's enough for the milestone

[indigo falcon]

nope. but honestly ifyou dig up some corvette parts and sell those, you can get rich pretty quick

sell the external plating ones if you like, you get lots of those

[hardy geyser]

anyone know an easy method to do this? Idk how I got 5k on it

[quartz pecan]

It's self explained

[lucid python]

As a switch 2 player who can't land on an outlaw system. Would I be able to get my contraband through a trade on the anomaly?

[quartz pecan]

Get on another players ship and just...ride with them

[hardy geyser]

hmm never done it tho alright then

[wanton raft]

I bet I can just use a regular economy scanner with a corvette, but is there (also) a corvette specific economy scanner module I can find/buy/trade?

[olive jackal]

I had so much fun with the Expedition. Can't wait for the next one!

[grand zenith]

Can anyone help me i need to travel in a friend's corvette

[craggy lava]

Why cant I complete this?

[hardy geyser]

its optional but if u want to do it its ez just warp to a new system with a space station u havent gone to and talk to the big robot head at second floor. If u havent gotten it it means u havent tlak to those robots enough.

Usually after u finish most of the expedition rewards talking to like 1~3 of those robot heads in the space station u should get it

[ashen shore]

Buy goods from pirates, sell to normal stations

[tired jewel]

Can I transfer a freighter I got during the expedition to my main save if i dont have one already?

[steep shale]

I think you can just stowaway on another's ship.

[tired jewel]

ive tried that you just get left behind

[frosty pine]

Just don't be close to the back of the ship

It does work because i did it

[tired jewel]

hmm ok

thats the last thing i need for the expedition imma try that ig

[frosty pine]

Ohh wait

I responded to wrong chat

[grand zenith]

I tried but got froze out of space

[tired jewel]

yeah same

[frosty pine]

When i did it i just got into a random ship, and when the person left the anomaly i just got the normal hyperspace animation

When the animation finished i was still inside the ship

I didn't even need to be in group or anything

[indigo falcon]

most people get left behind when the person warps or pulses away, you got lucky I guess

[steep shale]

Are there certain permissions the ship owner needs to grant?

[hoary grove]

Only the corvette can be transferred over to main side, no other ships

[tired jewel]

tragic

what about credits and corvette modules?

[chrome gust]

What things should I do before finishing the expedition?

[hoary grove]

Credits and units will carry over
Modules can either be slapped on to the ship as well, or be brought over as individual items from the terminal,
Anything that isn't brought over gets auto converted to creds and units

Do keep in mind no cargo slot items get carried over when you copy the ship or the tool, only the tech slot equipment installs are retained

[hoary grove]

Bring over anything of value to main side if you started from a main save

[tired jewel]

do you mean the workshop cash when you say the terminal? or is there another place i grab stuff from?

[hoary grove]

How'd you start the expedition?

[tired jewel]

from a new save

[hoary grove]

Nothing gets carried over then

Except some account wide unlocks

[tired jewel]

so i get nothing from doing the expedition?

[hoary grove]

At the end of your expedition, your new save will become a separate normal one

[tired jewel]

so i do get to keep my freighter?

[hoary grove]

In that particular save yes

[tired jewel]

YIPPEEEE

ok thank you

so i dont have to worry about anything not transferring because theres no transferring happening?

[hoary grove]

Yes

[tired jewel]

great

[hoary grove]

Would generally avoid investing in a Freighter before finishing your expedition regardless to avoid progression bugs

But you can always make backups of your saves to be safe

[tired jewel]

i already have one

what do you mean progression bugs?

[hoary grove]

Mission tracking mostly, but fret not if you already have one

Just play with MP off

[tired jewel]

multiplayer?

[hoary grove]

Yeah

Options -> network

[tired jewel]

will playing with friends bug out my progression or something?

[hoary grove]

It is very buggy with baseline networking enabled, avoid expeditions with friends if you're not comfortable with backing up your saves every half an hour or so, even then the way MP saves progress is confusing. Like it saves your progress, but not your location when playing with friends

Play expeditions solo, MP off. If it was on, restart just to flush out some network frag info from memory

[tired jewel]

ok thanks for all the help

[hoary grove]

There's usually a very cool monkey lurking in this channel, feel free to ping for details n help

[tired jewel]

how does the story work with going off of the corvette expedition? does it start from the beginning? im a little confuse on where id be put compared to my first save

[hoary grove]

The Artemis plot begins as soon as you end expedition and leave the anomaly I think, not a 100% sure

Or was it the Atlas one?

Anyways the transition is relatively smooth don't worry about it

[tired jewel]

ok cool, im was right at the artemis plot before restarting with the expedition

[hoary grove]

Your expedition save will be separate from your old one, treat them as different things

[tired jewel]

yeah i meant when i started a new save with the expedition

[hoary grove]

Since you started a new save for expedition, treat it as a 0 progression save, but after the expedition you'll be a little bit ahead than a blank save when it comes to story mode, like you already have a ship, might've already visited the anomaly so on

[tired jewel]

i think it automoatically finished the expedition for me, im on "the awakening" quest rn

or awakenings ig

[hoary grove]

You can check via the expeditions tab in the pause menu I think

Check if you've completed all missions, I think you still need to end expedition manually? Idk

[tired jewel]

I tried going to the anomaly but it said expedition complete

[tame vector]

Anyone able to help me out with my expedition?

[chrome gust]

This freighter I entered for an expedition is actually kinda good, might have to come back to the system after the expedition.

[steep shale]

How so?

I'm shit at this game, but I'm nearing the end of the expedition so it's pretty fresh.

[tame vector]

Well I got most of it sorted, but could use a ride for that milestone.

[steep shale]

I'm in the 5th rendezvous system now.

[tame vector]

I don't have the warp fuel unfortunately. Someone said they would help so I jumped to them in the first system lol.

[opaque harbor]

i have completed the expedition in few hours.. last week

[dusk marlin]

I’m only now just realizing that the nutrient processor when built in a thunderbird hab on the corvette has a legit Dejarik Holochess board in it from Star Wars! I swear I love this game lol

[hoary grove]

You can use space station teleporters with explicit labels for RV stations I think

[tame vector]

Yeah, just figured that out. Thanks though.

[chrome gust]

And that’s a wrap for the expedition.

I just got a bunch of gold nuggets from the egg sequencer?

[arctic crystal]

Derelict freight glitch

What do I even do

[arctic crystal]

Ok guys, if you get the glitch where the freighter doesn’t spawn the access just hang out in the system and wait for someone else to find a freighter

[thick umbra]

or simple disable Multiplayer

[hoary grove]

Huh?!!?! Did you dismantle the fucking egg instead of hatching it???!!!??

[chrome gust]

No In still have the egg in my inventory.

I also got 501 silver and probably the same amount of ferrite too.

Though the sequence did show the egg like I had 501 of them.

[hoary grove]

I think you just hover over it and use it to hatch from inventory

[umbral crest]

Hey travellers another question here lol... Even if I finish the expedition, will it cost me about 2000 nanites to copy the corvetta to my main game save?

[solemn bane]

I think mine cost like 7k once, lol. It was fully loaded

[wraith junco]

Or u can just transfer it in modules by jumping to main and exp from options back and forth and rebuild it on mian save

[arctic crystal]

Bro the glitch happens wether or not you’re multiplayer

[umbral crest]

Thanks i will try to pay the nanites but its good to know that can transfer the modules too 👍

[solemn bane]

You get nanites when you finish the expedition for things you accomplished as well. I had way more than enough rewarded to me at the end to buy my ship each time.

[umbral crest]

Oh, will the ones I have on the expedition transfer if I complete it?

[solemn bane]

Yep, and you'll get more as rewards

[umbral crest]

🤠👍thanks monkey traveller and one question more, if I dont have now the xbox live service can I see other players, or only their bases?

[solemn bane]

I don't know much about consoles. Google says "yes"

[dark acorn]

im currently stuck on the "Advance: Expand" step of the expedition, no matter what I do, it wont complete. I've tried rebuilding my corvette, to just sticking 3 hull pieces onto the side. but it just wont complete

[solemn bane]

Leave group if in one, turn off multiplayer, relog, rebuild

[dark acorn]

Hmmm

Okay

[dark acorn]

didn't work

💀

[solemn bane]

What is it showing as the mileston's progress?

[dark acorn]

0/3

if I put down a hab module it stays as 0/3

my corvette has 4 hab modules

[solemn bane]

So you turned off multiplayer, relogged, selected the quest, took the modules off your shup, applied the edit, then put the modules back on your ship, applied and it's still 0?

[dark acorn]

yep

[solemn bane]

thanks

[solemn bane]

Did you remove everything from your ship aside from what was necessary to make the red warnings go away? I see a reddit post that said you need to make sure you don't have shields on the ship. No idea if it's true.

[dark acorn]

orly?

i'll try that actually

[solemn bane]

Well, now that I read it again, I think this reddit post thinks they are trying to do Advance: Defend. But still worth a shot.

[dark acorn]

nope that didn't work lol

absolute bare minimum

3 habs, reactor, defense, cockpit, landing gear, and ramp

[solemn bane]

I haven't seen this issue here before. Well, not that the multiplayer/relog didn't fix, anyway. If you're on PC I have another solution, but it's weird.

[dark acorn]

sure

I am on PC

[solemn bane]

Steam?

[wanton frigate]

Do you have any of those sticky-up disks that add 1 storage slot? I threw a couple of them on to clear that, far as I remember.

[dark acorn]

yep

[solemn bane]

Close the game. Put Steam in "Offline mode". Go to the NMS cache folder (%APPDATA%\HelloGames\NMS\ then within that there will be a fiolder called st_ and a bunch of numbers, open that and go to the cache folder) and replace the SEASON_DATA_CACHE.JSON with the one I'm attaching). Open the game, load save and the milestone should auto complete (I just changed the "Amount" required to 0)

[dark acorn]

okay will try that now

[neat gulch]

Came back to the game after a long break, finish 19 after a day or so. Then I ran through the other 18 back to back I missed. 1 and 2 I made new characters because I was afraid to lose my progress bc I didn't understand how existing saves / expeditions worked. When I was back on my main save after everything completed I noticed my bases from those expeditions were all in my teleporter so I could go back and pick up exclusive expedition only items I had placed down.

[dark acorn]

epic that worked @solemn bane thanks

[solemn bane]

Aight, I think you can go back online and it will stay finished, but I'm not 100% sure. If it comes undone you can just do the same thing again with the file above

[dark acorn]

will do

[wanton frigate]

Are there limits to where you can use Anomaly detectors? e.g. star colour / dissonance presence / abandoned or pirate systems etc?

Or, if I ask the question I want to ask, why am I down 2 tanks of pulse fuel with no anomaly detected???

[solemn bane]

Leave group if in one, turn off multiplayer, relog, select milestone, pulse again

[wanton frigate]

The NMS Catch 22 - if it doesn't work, I'm screwed and if it does I'm shamed for not trying it before asking 😄

[wanton raft]

I hear the derelict in the rendezvous 4 system "has an up-ladder". I'm actually not sure how that's different from other derelicts I've done. Anyone know? I also hear there's some derelicts without ladders at all. Don't think I've seen one of those either.

[wanton raft]

I'm also interested in what derelict might have a good Salvaged Fleet Unit reward.

[earnest belfry]

With the current Expedition, do the Sentinels on the planets ever turn non-aggressive? So far all I have encountered are Dissonant planets or ones with Aggressive Sentinels. No "normal" Sentinel planets at all.

I did see the comment in the Expedition milestones about Sentinels being aggressive to Travellers but it implied this would be turned down based on the number of Travellers who "signed in" to check points.

[solemn bane]

Not until you're done with the expedition.

[earnest belfry]

Ah, as a newer player the inability to safely explore to gain materials is proving to be a bit of a challenge!

Thanks though... it is good to know it all reverts to normal after the Expedition

[wanton frigate]

if you're digging up Corvette parts you should find a healthy number of Sentinel Boundary Maps which you can use to locate the nearest pillar and turn the buggers off.

[earnest belfry]

Oh, so that is what those are for... cheers!

[solemn bane]

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.

I think i need to also update that note to mention with the Scatter Blaster you don't want to hold down the button to fire, instead do click, wait, click, wait etc otherwise it locks up for a bit after three rapid fire shots

[solemn bane]

There are also things you can do on your corvette to totally avoid sentinels as well:

17. To mine Salvageable Scrap quickly, scan/mark them from your corvette with your Analysis Visor, then fly to them and mine them with your ship's Photon Cannon

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.

[wanton frigate]

17.a Stop pressing Y to get out of your chair, you dunce! You're going to run out of launch fuel!

I'm driving myself mad with that

[earnest belfry]

Thanks - good to know these tips... I have been eaten alive by carnivorous wildlife a couple of times too since I was landing (and running out of launch fuel of course). I assume it is free to hover at low altitude and zero speed?

[solemn bane]

11. Never land your ship. Instead just teleport down, makes things a lot faster (left red button).

😉

[earnest belfry]

Teleport?

[wanton frigate]

11.a NO! Don't press Y to get out of your chair and teleport down!

[solemn bane]

Yep

[wanton frigate]

Yeah - the button you've been wondering about.

The one that isn't "close the hatch"

[earnest belfry]

How do you get back up then? Jetpack I assume?

[wanton frigate]

It drops a teleporter for you

You'll see it on the map.

[earnest belfry]

This really needs to be in the Expedition notes since it is effectively a New Features tutorial.

[pale walrus]

Yeah it drops a little teleporter just below it. I find it doesnt work if your corvette has over 100 parts including furtniture but I dont know if thats fixed

[solemn bane]

HG doesn't really like to.. explain stuff.

Anyway check the pins for more.

[wanton frigate]

In fairness, I can understand why. If I'd read it in a manual I would not have had that immensely satisfying "So that's what it does!" moment 😄

[earnest belfry]

True... but having (just right now) noticed the Pinned expedition tips, there are a lot of Doh! moments in my playthrough.

[wanton raft]

True, but this discord and the NMS Wiki (https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/No_Man's_Sky_Wiki) are my favorite places for answers!

[solemn bane]

Aaand time to check the patch notes to see if I need to update my pins, lol.

mmnope

It was just a little feller

[wanton frigate]

Caveat : So was Napoleon.

[wanton raft]

The rendezvous 5 derelict was one of the most jam packed with loot freighters I've seen and it gave me an S class fleet exploration unit.

[faint mesa]

It's a great one to do.

Many rooms, granted, but no significant enemies

And lots and lots of loot

[wanton raft]

I think I'm going to try the rendezvous 1 next even though I don't need to.

Mainly for the freighter upgrades.

[faint mesa]

Do we have suggestions on systems to run derelicts in the pinned messages?
Not sure if it's necessary, but well.

[dark acorn]

@solemn bane same thing happened with phase 4 lmao

and the shield modules

💀

[solemn bane]

Man you are mega bugged

[dark acorn]

real

the maneouverability one was fine

that one completely normally

[dark acorn]

thanks

hopefully that should be the last one

the weaponry one finished fine too

[wanton raft]

Haven't tried the dead eye cannon yet. What's it like?

[faint mesa]

It gives a bonus to... the positron ejector.

Does it make sense? Not at all. 😅

[wanton raft]

That's the ship shotgun as I recall. Does it make it better at all?

I'll have to try it in battle and for scrap harvesting!

[faint mesa]

It makes it better yes; it was just a weird choice for the weapon that gets the bonus

You'd usually have something else in mind for a "dead eye cannon"

[wanton raft]

I'm hoping it encreases the focus and range maybe? I'll see.

[orchid harbor]

uhhhhhhhh. what??? xD

[wanton raft]

Did you expect more or less than that?

[orchid harbor]

i emptied my inventory XD

[solemn bane]

Parts cache and storage as well?

[orchid harbor]

ohhhhhhh, that'd do it

[solemn bane]

Mostly parts cache I assume, yeah?

[orchid harbor]

yeah

yeahhhh

[solemn bane]

Well that answers that question I wasn't sure of earlier

[orchid harbor]

does it take the corvette into account too? i put most of my parts on it

Edit: thats bad wording

[wanton raft]

Ah so it does take the parts cache into account? That's good!

[orchid harbor]

i put most of my corvette parts on my corvette, so it must 'sell' all the parts on it as well

dont mind those numbers, if i do say so myself

[solemn bane]

I don't think so.

[wanton raft]

I was planning are making monster corvette(s) with all my parts and xferring them to the main save. Is that what you did?

[orchid harbor]

yep

i posted my monstrosity a few days back in one of the corvette channels

[wanton raft]

That's cool they thought of it! I didn't expect that to happen.

I just got done with the expedition on my PS4. Still have the PC expedition to do. It will go much much faster! I have a spinning disk on the PS4! Not SSD.

[orchid harbor]

nvm, i thought i posted it

but apparantly not

[solemn bane]

What's the part max on a corvette? I heard something like 100 parts.

[orchid harbor]

yeah, 100

im at it on mine

thats not including manually built parts tho

only modules

[solemn bane]

Switch 2 is like 80. Switch 1 is 0.

[orchid harbor]

wait, what?

actually?

[wanton raft]

Yeah, I heard Switch 1 doesn't do corvettes at all right now. Hope that changes.

[orchid harbor]

damnnnnn

[wanton raft]

Switch 1 doesn't do online at all either.

Didn't know that until I'd already bought it for a family member.

[orchid harbor]

oof

anyway, i might go do exp18 tmrw - its time to get my backpack maxed out

[wanton raft]

Backpack?

[orchid harbor]

dont event have 3 rows of tech slots

[solemn bane]

Hm, I thought Switch 2 had a lower part limit. I guess I dreamed it.

[wanton raft]

I ALWAYS pass in the backpack stuff to my expedition.

3 shields, 3 health, 3 jetpack, one of each of the protections, ...

[orchid harbor]

yeah, im gonna do that when i do the older expns, i didnt think about transferring them cuz i thought they were just rewarded as slots, rather than items made into slots

[wanton raft]

I think I'm only missing like one of the 19 expeditions maybe. May have that one too now. Can't remember.

On two different accounts too.

[ripe dock]

oh boy is there anything more cool than having to reset a save because the Corvette landed in a super jank way on a teleport?

My corvette landed underwater, in a cave

[wanton raft]

On what platform?

[ripe dock]

I am trying to swim and walk at the same time while inside and my controls are just... odd

[ripe dock]

PC

[wanton raft]

Oh so you couldn't get it out?

[ripe dock]

It doesn't think I am inside my ship

I am not losing oxygen, but I am swimming

[wanton raft]

Can you get out?

[ripe dock]

Since I am swimming I can't get into the helm. I am also blocked from getting out now because the loading bay is behind an indestructible plant

[wanton raft]

Ah

[ripe dock]

Currently:
A - Goes Up
S - Goes Left
D - Goes Left
W - Goes Right

If I turn 90 degrees, it all changes

[idle dune]

What

[neat gulch]

Re-loading, doesn't help?

[ripe dock]

Quit to Menu, Quit to Desktop. Both put me back at the helm

Let me plug in a controller, maybe I'll get lucky

[wanton raft]

Both saves messed up?

[ripe dock]

Yes

[native arrow]

I have a quick question, When it comes to the corvette loading into your base or wherever you teleport. Is there a way to make it NOT teleport inside of your base?

[idle dune]

Can you build

[native arrow]

Not inherently

I like my teleporters in my house

[idle dune]

No I meant the swimming man

[native arrow]

Oh my b
