and place it

[serene anchor]

Okay thank. I just tried, but unable to build, the same error message remains present. If I restart my game, the basics will no longer be present?

[serene anchor]

I've gone too far, I don't know where he is anymore.

[remote thunder]

you'd want to go full offline to prevent other player bases from downloading from the server. then you just need to keep walking till you find an area that doesnt have any

[serene anchor]

Okay my bad. I think I'm going to have to walk for a long time then.

[small tendon]

guys how to complete this mission? i've already found 8 waypoints but it seems doesn't work

[hollow shale]

just exit game, disable your computers internet, start up and do it, then save and exit and reenable internet.

then keep playing as normal

[hollow shale]

I also found it didn't work every time.

I found that ruins and depots triggered it every time

[small tendon]

welp, lemme try to find ruins or depots if it trigger the mission or no

[hollow shale]

good luck!

[remote thunder]

i mean, it should work with any waypoint that's not been discovered yet

a waypoint is the same object, same interaction table regardless of what poi it's next to

Expedition 21: Roadsigns milestone not registering

If interacting with a undiscovered waypoint isn't working, the steps below worked for some players:

1. Be sure to have mp disabled
2. Save+return to main menu, load save, make sure to have the right milestone selected, interact again. If needed try to upload waypoint discovery.

To find more buildings, you can use your exocraft radar in the quick menu to scan for drop pods for example.

Going completely offline or firewall blocking the game would make every waypoint be uncharted, undiscovered.

Note: This issue should be fixed with the 6.22 patch.

[hollow shale]

yeah but it doesn't work

[remote thunder]

as of today, there's also this on steam experimental branch:

Implemented a recovery fix for players who could not discover waypoints on expedition worlds.

[hollow shale]

half the time I showed up to a place, it didn't trigger the quest.

[remote thunder]

i always made sure to select the milestone again before i interacted with a waypoint, then gave it a few seconds to register, and it seemed to work everytime, i had like all of them by the time i got to checkpoint v

[hollow shale]

wierd. I had all kinds of stuff going on while going around.

didn't work at most of them.
I went to one of each type while experimenting

[stone violet]

I need people to play with

[remote thunder]

yeah, some kind of weird bug that fell through the cracks still

[thick umbra]

#nms-lfg-or-trades

[hollow shale]

How did the hauling mechanic get through the cracks tooo???? 😮

[serene anchor]

@hollow shale @remote thunder
I finally made it. Thank you for your help. 🙏

[buoyant ledge]

I already scanned 6/8 minerals. Where are the rest???

[remote thunder]

try looking for spots like these, look like dried up river beds, or solidified magma flows

[hollow shale]

all over.
some are medium rocks, so if you are using the scanner inside the truck, it's a bit hard to see them

[buoyant ledge]

💪 I’ll try that, thanks!

[small tendon]

Update. Once i found some depots and save it at waypoint, its trigger the mission
Then i tried to reload and back to save it again, its triggering

[jade elk]

Anyone have any tips for the charting waypoints?

[small tendon]

thanks for the help guys

[hollow shale]

when I did it, the only ones that registered everey time were depots and ruins.
there's supposed to be a bug fix in the worlds atm though, so you might wanna just wait for a patch.

[remote thunder]

also see <#nms-commands message>

[whole seal]

Every trash pile destination in the phases has a waypoint save post. And most other buildings on the planet.

These

[remote thunder]

blast from the past

[whole seal]

They're not all named creepily

[small tendon]

guys, can we leave the planet on this event?

[whole seal]

So, I finished all the go-to-trashpile bring-back-trash missions thru the phases, but I still have in the last phase a few of each type of trash to destroy left. Wandering the planet looking for random items of each type. Do I need to, instead, go BACK to the trash piles to get more of those items? (I guess I should've loaded up more on the initial runs.)
?

Or is stuff lying around in sufficient quantities on the planet surface

[tribal condor]

only after the expedition is completed - you've gotta get back to the space anomaly somehow

it fixes your ship for you once you're done with all the objectives

[stoic hollow]

This expedition is hell, iswtg

a freakin early april fools joke

[small tendon]

now how to clear this while the planet only have 5 type of rocks?

[cloud marten]

Yoo fellow voyager i’m stuck at the second milestone of the first phase 😭

[hollow marten]

The planet has more than 8. You just can't find 8 in the exact same spot. Some are only in caves, and some are only on the dark strips across the surface

[stoic hollow]

My car just launched by itself because of janky physics

[mighty flax]

I'm stuck on the space station. Teleporter isn't showing any other bases this time. I only have to scan the flying fauna and find one more location to save at. Am I cooked?

[dry patrol]

theres one that appears on top of the pillar looking mountain things

[dry patrol]

no, people go to hell as penance for sin. there is no sin that warrants this as punishment.

sisyphus was condemned to roll a boulder up a hill for eternity but not to haul 20 boulders up a mountain with questionable collision and random pits

hades never said "peep my rock collection while you're at it btw some of them are hidden

"and also one of them is a tree lol"

[fervent ocean]

I don't know why but I see flickering green pixels on this specific image, and they scroll with the image. It's probably something up with the image itself, but scared the hell outta me because I thought my gpu was cooked

[dry patrol]

anyway, rocks I have found: standard size rock, big rock, small rock named big rock, rock that is tree, pointy rock, stalagtite in cave, stalagmite in cave, small rock on those grey roadish paths, rock on top of the pillar looking mounds

[thick umbra]

There is .. if it show Industrial Waste .. there may sometimes also explosive trash .. If it shows Specialist Industrial Waste .. there you find Toxic or Radioactive Trash
I would also within the exp. do the following :
Off-Road Wheels (Rusty): Process 75 units of Waste Metal.
Tracked Treads (The Loadmaster): Process 50 units of Explosive Waste.
Caterpillar Tracks (Hazmat Specialist): Process 50 units of Toxic Waste.
Superelastic Wheels (Fuel Handler): Process 50 units of Radioactive Waste.

[mighty flax]

Could somebody with a corvette rescue me from the space station?

[fervent ocean]

i LOVE carrying unsecured volatile cargo over extremly unstable terrain! It is definetly not a recipie for disaster!!\

[hollow shale]

yeah it sucks

they need to change it so that the stuff in the back can't fall out

[coarse garnet]

If you have found the expedition too easy, I can share the location of a scrap planet with the Liquid Hell climate 😄

[whole seal]

Please do.

[tame mesa]

It takes a lot more time, but you can use your terrain manipulator with the flatten setting to do some MASS terraforming and sculpt parts of highways between points

[thick umbra]

there are no corvettes in expedition 21

[whole seal]

Just be careful. I am old and so maybe I have longer life experience with physics, but I've loaded only 5 items in the bed each run and only once had a big blowout of cargo (falling out - never blowing up). Go cautiously and use the angle of the hills you are de/ascending to your advantage to slide the cargo around. It sounded like it would be far, far harder, but it was pretty easy with caution, doing the hauls, as far as my experience.

[mighty flax]

That's fine. I managed to get out of the space station. Slowly boosting all the way back to the planet.

[whole seal]

You just (aged) Princess Leia'ed your way from station to planet without a ship?

[stoic hollow]

FINALLY im done with this expedition. I'll be honest, i'd rather fight eldritch squids from breach than doing this over again

[mighty flax]

I was able to get a rescue ship once I got out.

No pulse drive though.

[wooden bane]

How'd you get out? Currently stuck in the station

Or any way to die in the game and respawn on planet?

[mighty flax]

I jetpacked through the roof.

[wooden bane]

How far and where from

[mighty flax]

Towards the back where the platform is. Fly to the highest point, jetpack from there and hope for the best.

Might only work with higher upgrades

[wooden bane]

got full S jetpack stuff

oh wait

[mighty flax]

Hell yeah

[wooden bane]

no yeah i got S

the back by the entrance or the big robot eye thing

[urban compass]

Apologies for asking kinda too busy when this event gonna end?

[mighty flax]

Big robot eye

[somber path]

Learned my first evwr expedition fail on hard .... left the planet - anomaly and forgot to put things from suit and truck into ship ... lesson learned

[wooden bane]

can i get u to add me on steam and inv me to your game in expedition mode?

[urban compass]

!exp

[mighty flax]

I'm not sure exactly where you phase through the station but you'll pop out between the station and the walkable part if you do it right. Then you just jetpack towards the front and you'll be able to call your emergency ship.

[wooden bane]

can i try adding you on steam and have u invite me? see if that works

[mighty flax]

You're on PC?

[wooden bane]

yeah

[mighty flax]

I'll dm you

type !exptime in #nms-commands

[urban compass]

ah imma note this down tot tis !exp thank you very much

[old prawn]

so, we REALLY have to walk for hours to find a spot to build the f* geobay or what am i missing?

[past oak]

Turning off MP helped me with this, still had to find a spot that worked but not an hour

[lusty slate]

Turn off mp or report the base.

[sturdy zealot]

This

if you're stuck on the space station. people with corvettes can bring u back

vast majority of the nms community is great 🙂

[harsh laurel]

this way point expedition is gonna be the end of me. i cant get them to register!

[sturdy zealot]

Oh, that's handy.

[wanton turtle]

Same. I got 2/6 but idk how I even got that 2 .. Just as I got to this part it was already 2/6 ..

Tried using them beacons at everything .. Waste heaps .. Processing plant .. Random buildings ...

[harsh laurel]

i made it to 4

im two away, its infuriating

[wanton turtle]

What did count for you?

[harsh laurel]

processing plants 2 , waste heap 1, rando 1 i think do remember for sure

[wanton turtle]

Thanks

[harsh laurel]

no problem i was also single player mode, if you figure it lemme know

[wanton turtle]

Sure!
I even tried using them beacons without having the objective active to see (well, I got the first 2 without having it active so ..) .. Still no luck

[dark kindle]

I started the expedition yesterday. The game freezes regulary causing me to have to exit to console dashbaord and restart the game losing random amounts of progress each time. This is immensely frustrating considering the tedium of driving a vehicle that goes excruciatingly slow.

[patent talon]

is there anyway to get off the space station?

[harsh laurel]

yes, imagine this with a corvette instead!

[harsh laurel]

teleport

or wait for a corvette

[patent talon]

nothing shows up in the menu

[patent talon]

alr

[wanton turtle]

Just got to 3/6 woth the beacon at randezvous 3 location finally

[harsh laurel]

really? try switching to single player if you are in multi

[harsh laurel]

how?

[wanton turtle]

Idk it just counted .. Maybe only the objective related beacons count? Just guessing

[harsh laurel]

sweet!

[remote thunder]

also, remember to

[solemn bane]

For Roadsigns you can also just put it off until you have your ship, which makes it way easier to find more waypoints

[remote thunder]

also this!

[harsh laurel]

ty monkey! AND BK!

[wanton turtle]

Thanks!

[rocky fractal]

any idea what the bright spots on the planet are that look like the sun spat onto a patch of the ground?

[jagged spruce]

I find it crazy that you guys can find the expedition planet

the galaxy map is so big

[crisp prism]

Easy way is to get the portal address.

[rocky fractal]

Also curse every person who built a base on the deposits.

[junior shard]

is there water on the expedition world? I can't find the last minerals lol

5/8 minerals

[solemn bane]

Just a rendering bug. I thought I saw it was fixed in the latest patch, but maybe not depending on your hardware/graphical settings.

[jagged spruce]

I don't have a portal

[solemn bane]

One of them is probably in my pinned message: #nms-expedition message

Another may be one of the underground minerals.

[junior shard]

Yeah I found two underground ones

well big rock too now on the ground, thats 6/8

[rocky fractal]

I found 3 underground afaik

[jade elk]

When do you get ur ship back? Because the only 2 missions I have left out of all is to deliver toxic waste and the road sign one

[vocal spindle]

is it better to launch the expedition on a new save? or current?

[wanton turtle]

Some trees are actually minerals too.

[wanton turtle]

Personal preference, I always do new save

[balmy pagoda]

How do you enable the headlights on the colossus exocraft? At night it's annoying having to get out all the time just to use the light on the suit to see. My craft to stuck ion a cave trying to dig it out.

[vocal spindle]

thx

[junior shard]

ah trees minerals? lol

[solemn bane]

Depends on which patch you're on. Either after the last milestone, or after phase 5 is completed in total

[junior shard]

Lmao you're right, this was a mineral 😂

that brings me on 7/8

[solemn bane]

You can send stuff back to your primary save if you start it from one, you also get your units, nanites and quicksilver sent back to that save, in addition to bonus units and nanites.

[junior shard]

if you found 3 underground then I guess my last is a third underground not there in my first caves

[winged verge]

Yo guys im trapped in a space station and cant get out. My only way is through reloading my save but id lose 2 hour progression in this expedition. Is there another way?

[rocky fractal]

I beleive there were 2 types of stagligmites? the hang-y down-y ones

[junior shard]

Yeah I got 2 but someone said 3

[rocky fractal]

2 hang-y down-y, 1 stick-y uppy

at least, i think that's what i scanned

my last one was the tiny rock

[velvet moon]

The 6 spots we have to get better to scan for a building.

And can we not Have a ship...🤔

[solemn bane]

Not until you finish Phase 5

[turbid cedar]

imma say it, this was the worst expedition yet

[solemn bane]

I'd be so bold as to say there will never be another expedition this bad or worse.

[median warren]

@junior shard look in the river beds which is the Grey flatter areas

[junior shard]

Yeah caves just have these two for me

I haven't seen a river yet 🙁

[turbid cedar]

would be slightly better if they hadn't picked literally the worst planet for it

[solemn bane]

I will say, it's not the worst possible planet. On my main save the first planet I found with Salvagable Scrap was one of those planets with mile-high mountains that are like huge spikes. It would have been literally impossible to complete the expedtion there 😆

[turbid cedar]

even if they had picked a planet with flatter terrain the colossus just sucks to use, really slow and clunky

[junior shard]

I hope the 16 of each special wont suck

[solemn bane]

It's the worst part, lol.

[turbid cedar]

and then there's the gravity gun, was my favorite part of HL2 but here it's way too situational

[velvet moon]

There used to be bad one until this one came out.

[solemn bane]

lol exactly. For a few days after I was unable to even remembr which one I thought was worst, since I'd rather play any of them ten times before playing this one again.

[velvet moon]

For the 64 peices to throw I just spammed a tire against the side of one of the buildings lol

[solemn bane]

If I were to make a tier list, they would all be either S, A or B, and I would leave C and D empty to show how much worse this one is to be in the F tier.

[turbid cedar]

for me the second worst expedition would be aquarius - way too much RNG

[solemn bane]

Yeah I eventually remembered it was that one. The RNG and because I HATE fishing. I'd still rather play that 10 times, lol.

[velvet moon]

I have to drive ~30 minutes to the third spot....

I just stopped for the day.

[turbid cedar]

if i had to pick a favorite expedition it would probably be emergence

[velvet moon]

I just have to finish the 16 of each , find the 6 locations , and just 3,4 etc with thr the 5 each

[median warren]

https://youtu.be/DHx71OekvG0?si=ANSA4zlJVLbvrDNA

[solemn bane]

Corvette for me, hands down. I think I ended up playing it like 12 times. I was absolutely addicted.

[velvet moon]

This should be called the gravitino ball planet

[median warren]

@junior shard its not filled with water obviously but watch Jason plays on YouTube it'll help alot

[velvet moon]

I found that last mineral ..... Finally

[turbid cedar]

i only played corvette once for the unlocks

but corvette is definitely my favorite update by far

[velvet moon]

That's what I did. Then built corvettes for like 3 weeks straight lol

[median warren]

The link i posted above will show you @junior shard

[vast sail]

Main save my first one was a toxic planet that was just covered in ocean with periodic islands that were 40% giant mountain spike and 40% sudden cave holes

I think that's the only one I've found with salvage on my main file so far come to think of it

[turbid cedar]

i make a point of playing every new expedition at least once for the unlocks

[solemn bane]

From what I hear I think that would be possible, since the collosus can drive underwater. It can't scale sheer mountains, though.

[vast sail]

I didn't check the oceans thoroughly but it seemed to be mostly trenches

How's the truckbed loads do when driving underwater?

[solemn bane]

I just loved making junk pile after junk pile with each playthrough and all the parts I ended up getting. Man I miss that feeling 😆

[solemn bane]

I haven't tried it, only saw a screenshot of someone attempting it. I imagine it would be fine-ish. But even slower.

[vast sail]

Man next time I go to a planet that's got corvette salvage drops I need to accumulate enough pieces to build mine

[velvet moon]

Yes I made a super ugly monster loved it

[solemn bane]

Speaking of junk piles, it would have been cool if they fused this expedition with Corvette building somehow. You use your collosus to salvage scrap and bring it to some corvette building place. Coulda been fun, but nooooo.

[whole seal]

Keep going and you'll have the Valerian planet.

( God, that movie sucked so horribly. )

[queen viper]

why this not working?

neverming i see now how to use it properly

im inpatient 😄

[whole seal]

It scales those large stone pillars just fine and fast, though - apparently.

[vast sail]

It's gotta be some pretty sheer mountains for the colossus to not be able to handle it

It's just keeping your cargo load that becomes a problem

Especially if the back wall of the truckbed is still inexplicably lower than the sides

[manic badge]

trying to summon my collosus during expedition. Getting exocraft not owned?

[vast sail]

You might need to place down your geobay again then?

[manic badge]

only options I get for construction are save beacon, message terminal and the other one? do I just need to run far enough away to make my own base?

[solemn lion]

Hey do you know why getting out of starship game doesn't save? And cannot summon anomaly the buttons isnt there? Already tried reload save lost 30min progress and situation repeat. Trying o finish expedition last save is at checkpoint. Anyone have any ideas?

[vast sail]

Have you done the first few expedition objectives

[vast sail]

You have to do the first three or four in order

[vast sail]

Click the expedition tab for me?

[vast sail]

Click on the quest buttons for the three you've already finished

[cloud marten]

Yo how do u save ???

[vast sail]

You need to collect the rewards manually

[cloud marten]

Cause u can’t use ships

[vast sail]

That'll give you the geobay recipe

[vast sail]

Game autosaves every couple minutes

[manic badge]

ahhh

[manic badge]

now I feel dumb, hah, thanks so much.

[vast sail]

No it's fine I had the same problem just a little earlier than you

[cloud marten]

Thx bro

[solemn bane]

Yeah, now imagine starting this expedition without spider legs on a planet that was covered in nothing but spikes and valleys that are 10 times bigger than that

[vast sail]

No problem

[solemn lion]

It isn't. Mine didn't save for 30min

Already reloaded save, restart the game still doesn't save.

[vast sail]

Huh, that's weird

[solemn lion]

Yup, have no clue what to do. Stuck at fifth waste heap.

[vast sail]

Have they fixed the thing where spider legs get randomly stuck on dihydrogen crystals?

[solemn bane]

Yep, should be out on Steam

[vast sail]

Nice

Next time I break out the colossus I'll need to swap back to those, the spider legs are busted in comparison to other options with that fix

[cinder fog]

Is the new update out on Xbox yet or nah?

[queen viper]

hello i ended expedition yesterday with all milestones done, now im on transfering items in exp. terminal, i came back to planet for last items and wanted to build a base. Anyone knows why I still do not have computer base availble?

[marsh willow]

If you really need to save in game you can always use the beacon point saves.

[solemn bane]

You don't get one if you start on an existing save. You can screenshot on the planet with the glyphs and portal back to it on your primary save if you want to build a base there.

[queen viper]

honestly i dont care so m uch about the base but i was just curious whats goin on\

yea i play on 1 save , thx for answeringf

LMAO i wanted to start ship to anomaly and i dont have starting fuel lmao. is there easy way to get that ? i dont have any items on me lmao

[solemn lion]

Doesnt work also

[queen viper]

ok i see dihydrogen and metal plating oooof im saved

[cinder fog]

Is the Expedition on Xbox or is Xbox being left out?

[solemn bane]

Is this on PC?

[solemn lion]

Yes

[solemn bane]

Could your hard drive be full?

[solemn lion]

Is that i thing? I need to check

[solemn bane]

I have seen it happen a couple times before with inexplicable saving problems. If that's not it, I might try another save, restarting, uh, turning multiplayer off? I dunno, that's a really weird bug.

[rocky fractal]

When you think you're being clever cause a trader ship landed...

[manic badge]

no edit permission when trying to place?

[vast sail]

That's because of people setting up bases all over the place I think

[solemn bane]

Instructions for getting around that in my pinned comment: #nms-expedition message

Oh, I should check to see if they fixed base reporting

[junior shard]

I wxill probably regret this

[full slate]

Is the crashes fixed

[queen viper]

if i play on one save and i ended expedition, i need to discover all the mods for collosus again like on the start of expedition? right?

i dont have flatbed availblle

[solemn bane]

Nope, still can't report bases to get rid of them and build. gj, hg.

[solemn bane]

Yeah. Flatbed is available after processing one waste.

If it's not, relog. If it's still not, too bad so sad.

[wintry inlet]

did you win big or live to regret it?

(you probably don't know yet ^^; i misread what time you sent that XD)

[primal raft]

What are all the minerals? I just need one left

[solemn bane]

Possibly the one in my pinned comment: #nms-expedition message

[primal raft]

Awesome

Just gotta go to a grey cracked area then

[solemn bane]

Also possibly the one that looks like a tree

[primal raft]

Got that one. It is the weirdest rock I’ve seen. 😂

[high granite]

This feels like a dumb question, but how do you chart the waypoints for the Roadsigns stage? 😅

[topaz rune]

Guys I can't complete a task

[wintry inlet]

By using one of the chart & save thingies, but it (often?) doesn't seem to register as a new one

it took me quite a few tries to get the last couple

[solemn bane]

Interact with the white flagpoles at the various poi's. Best to save it for the end after you get your ship, because as said they seem to be a bit busted and you can find them faster in a ship.

[tranquil frost]

How do i do the waypoint missipn?

[solemn bane]

Story of my life.

[high granite]

I think we’re stuck on the same stage 😄

[solemn bane]

See the answer above

[junior shard]

I've won

which gave me 2/3 of these lol

hauled 23 pieces without losing one

[frozen laurel]

Access the white pole save beacons next to a light pole at most POIs

[mellow rain]

Expo on xbox yet?

[topaz rune]

lol

[topaz rune]

GG dude but can you tell how can I do this ?

[solemn bane]

You're probably stuck on the part where you upload your discoveries on the Discoveries tab

[junior shard]

If you find them all, register discovering them all

[topaz rune]

yep

[junior shard]

under discoveries -> fauna

[topaz rune]

Yes I know but

It's ....

[solemn bane]

ok find that last one then

[queen viper]

he found it

but it didnt count

i think

[junior shard]

Yeah need to scan the birds 🙂

[queen viper]

somehow

he scanned it u see green icon

[junior shard]

was diurnal day or night

ah damn

F

[solemn bane]

Oh I see, hmm...

[solemn bane]

If you're on PC, see the instructions in my pinned comment for a workaround: #nms-expedition message

where do you find all the radioactive waste 😭

[primal raft]

Ah crap my vehicle fell into a cave!

Soooo

How do I do it now?

[distant cave]

Im trapped in space station in 3rd phase help

[junior shard]

all over the place 😛

[primal raft]

Am I screwed?

My thing fell into a giant cave

[distant cave]

U can summon it back like a spaceship

[junior shard]

caves are really treacherous

[short zenith]

Jump out go above ground then re summon it

[junior shard]

you can also aim and right click to get the things out of the cave

[primal raft]

Oh

[junior shard]

as it wont tele the cargo 😛

[primal raft]

Mine is empty as I was going to a rendezvous

[distant cave]

Guys help 😭 im trapped in space station

There are like 6 other people here

[primal raft]

You know what. I’m walking to rendezvous 3

[coral cape]

i can barely find any

instead i keep finding toxic waste and explosives

[distant cave]

Re summon your vehicle

[primal raft]

I’ll do it when I’m there.

There’s nothing u can do i think

Im trapped as well

[last vigil]

Omg, it's you standing next to me?

[distant cave]

No unfortunately, im alone

[last vigil]

I think there's a third stranded then , I'm sitting next to REDGhost

[distant cave]

I mean life in space station isnt so bad so…

[distant cave]

Its not me

[last vigil]

True, beats the food on the planets lmao

[distant cave]

Ye and there’s no sentinels

[last vigil]

Is there a way, let's say I go back to my main save then go to the location of the expedition itself and save someone and someone save me?

[solemn bane]

You won't be able to see people on the expedition.

[last vigil]

This update is a disaster....

[stuck apex]

when was an update? did i miss it?

[junior shard]

I saw a few, but grabbing gravitinos will spawn them too

NOw I need to find water and then mess with the sentinels and done 😛

so

do I ride in one direction for water? 😛

AAAAAAH

I unlocked my ship

that makes it easier to find water 😂

[vast sail]

What do you need water for?

[fluid otter]

the "chart waypoints" quest doesn't seem to be advancing for me. any tips?

[vast sail]

Currently a bug where it only counts sometimes, check pins

[solemn bane]

Save it for last when you have a ship, makes it easier to find new waypoints. It seems just buggy.

[junior shard]

I was told the last mineral was underwater

I'm on 7/8

[fluid otter]

will do, ship would make it way less painful too

[vast sail]

There's about 3 more minerals on the planet than you need for the quest

Unless they changed the quest

[solemn bane]

No it just looks like a dried riverbed.

[vast sail]

Yeah

There's one that's findable near spawn but is obnoxiously small, too

[solemn bane]

Last one is usually the one in my pinned comment: #nms-expedition message

oops, lol

[junior shard]

aaaah gotcha

now I understand what you meant with dry river bed 😛

[vast sail]

🎉

[junior shard]

I was dumb lmao 😂

now I just need the two sentinel tasks

to gravitino balls

[fluid otter]

also, is there a way to increase the fov while driving first person? looove the vibes of first person driving but it's too much of a pain with how limited it is

[small merlin]

yo, im stuck in the space station. Anyone willing to help me out?

the experimental fix isn't up yet for consoles.

[stuck apex]

i dont think we can

[small merlin]

i read that i can join a friend to spawn on them.

but none of my buddies play this gamr

[junior shard]

Done, ez

[small merlin]

are there any ps5 people here rn?

[stuck apex]

if its true, dm me your friend code, making new char now

[small merlin]

my hero

[stuck apex]

oh shoot forgot to swap mp settings, need to reload after

initialising the longest part of every character rofl

[dapper aurora]

I also did this, somehow

[young charm]

when does this expedition end?

[stuck apex]

If you start now, you can still make it 👍

So the station-stuck people, I have some bad news for you.

[solemn bane]

You can check the events in this Discord for the end date/time

See Pins in #nms-expedition & run !Expedition in #nms-commands

[young charm]

alr so i can take my time im still on phase 1

[rocky fractal]

Seriously, a curse on all those building bases on plants and heaps and deposits. May your bread be stale and your tea cold.

[stuck apex]

The real issue with this expedition is the junk runs at the end of each stage tbh, they are the only time intensive thing in it

[stuck apex]

Disable MP before starting an expedition. No people no buildings no problems 🙂

[rocky fractal]

Yeah, it's too late for that now.

Oh well, that's how we learn hah. Honestly, I haven't found this expedition as bad as people have seemed to.

[stuck apex]

The only upside I can think of with MP enabled here is if you forget to pack your geo bay for that 1 time you need to use it later and you find a nearby player owned one, everything else just makes it harder

[rocky fractal]

Yeah, using the bays is nice. But honestly I'm only changing appearance. And if bases weren't there, I could easily get enough to build a bay without having to constantly get no edit perms

[solemn bane]

You can do those all at the same time if you just rush the Checkpoints. Problem is you still need to do the 16/16/16

[stuck apex]

Nice

[buoyant ledge]

I’ve completed everything except the waypoints. How do I get my ship?

[worldly salmon]

call for it

it should come right to you

[buoyant ledge]

Thank you!

[soft gyro]

does anyone know a portal address for the Expedition planet? im stuck on the system's space station 😭

[night thistle]

Is there a way I can do previous expeditions?

[wraith junco]

[solemn bane]

On PC yes

[wraith junco]

Only mods

[night thistle]

Yes I'm on pc, i was hoping there would be re runs, i bought the game with 3 days to end the last expedion 🙁

[solemn bane]

Link in my profile

[terse gust]

I FINISHED THE EXPEDITION!!!!!!!!

That took almost a week!

[night thistle]

I'll have a look...ty

[grim galleon]

Will the Expedition Generator work using it from a main save (anomaly terminal) while another expo is active? I'd assume yes, but just wanna make sure.

[solemn bane]

Yep, you're basically tricking it into thinking another expedition is happening

[soft gyro]

nothing in there has helped me so far ):

[grim galleon]

Alrighty, thanks a bunch. Then I shall finally start my Expedition Marathon tomorrow eve. Thanks for making it possible! I dipped out of NMS sometime after Origins, and only returned for Omega.

Will still do all of them again anyways to keep better track of whatever lore bits I stumble upon. The terminal is gonna make this much more worthwhile now that we can transfer over stuff, I'll have so much QS on my kinda new main save by the end of this marathon too

[solemn bane]

The portal glyphs are usually in the pins but they are not this time

[soft gyro]

i used a random teleporter to get onto the station, and there arent any return addresses. had enough credits to buy the parts for a corvette but the mode assumingly prevents me from redeeming the corvette

[wraith junco]

Oh...Will be soon probably

[wraith junco]

Maybe bc whole exp is in 1 planet and to see glyphs u just need to open photomode

[stone lotus]

Wait for the next patch; it includes a fix for this (from the experimental patch notes)

Or if you're on pc and using steam, you can switch to the experimental branch to get the fix now

[soft gyro]

all good, i just edited my save to warp me back to the planet lmao

some other poor dude was stuck there with me too, i hope he found his way out too 😭

[tribal condor]

it's on everything, even Switch 1

[fluid otter]

loading up my truck knowing full well that by the time i reach the waste station i'll only have 2 boxes left in the truck

[fallow monolith]

Are spider legs the best locomotion option?

[mental geyser]

Except for the blue crystals, yes..

[fallow monolith]

Blue crystals?

[mental geyser]

Smoothest ride

Dihydrogen, the legs get stuck

A recent fix helps, not on my Switch yet though

[agile pond]

finally I got to listen to the full "supermoon" after a week of moving trash... what a relief

[fallow monolith]

'supermoon'?

[agile pond]

the song that plays after completing every phase in the expedition

it's sooo rewarding

[boreal herald]

hey i haven't played in forever, i start the game and have an option to enter the expedition.. i have no idea what I'm supposed to do.. I'm on a planet and it tells me I can't leave

[wraith junco]

U do series of tasks for cosmetic rewards. If u started from main save u can jump back to main save from options.

[buoyant ledge]

So what happens to all my items after I’ve completed the expedition?

Expedition Info

Game mode explained:

Expeditions are an alternate time-limited, season-like game mode with a set of challenges rewarding exclusive items that can be claimed in any and all of your saves, in any game mode account-wide.

To get past expedition rewards, you must wait for possible future expedition re-runs (see past expeditions) or possible future Twitch Drops campaigns featuring old expedition rewards (see past campaigns). You may also obtain certain rewards via other unconventional means, including ship trading or using a "service bot" in the Creative Hub Discord. Additionally, PC players ( ) can get past rewards via save editing or #nms-modding.

FYI if you teleport to the space station you cannot teleport back you will be trapped

[solid cargo]

<@&590975379678953522> soooo can anyone help me please lol I used someone’s teleporter and now I can’t get back to the expedition planet😅

[solid cargo]

I mean just someone fly here and get me lol surely it’s possible

[thick osprey]

i am done with the expedition and hypthetically i could do that

[primal raft]

It is finally done!

[thick osprey]

but idk i it will work since multiplayer in this game is weird

[solid cargo]

Would be amazing lol I’m trying to make a corvette rn to see if that will work lol

[thick osprey]

ah good, i hope it works

[quaint stone]

is anyone else having a really laggy expedition?

like vehicles and players just glitching around everywhere

[worldly salmon]

if your still stuck ill come get you

[solid cargo]

Yes plz I’m just short weapons I need 1.2 mill to finish this corvette there’s also someone else up here with me

I’m short like 400k

[solid cargo]

Ya I can’t get back please come save me😂

[worldly salmon]

send me your friend code

[solid cargo]

Friend code is ZB3D-BKYK-2C88Y

[winter locust]

This expedition sucks dude. I have been trying to put down the colossus spawner for the past 20 minutes but there's "no edit permission" everywhere.

[quaint stone]

i just wish the expedition wasnt buggy asf

[worldly salmon]

ZB3D-BKYK-2C88Y add me and ill join you

[solid cargo]

That’s the same code as mine lol @worldly salmon

[worldly salmon]

omg lmao

[marsh brook]

They have a new expedition going for this junk update?

[worldly salmon]

TZE0-GHBW-A2Z74

[solid cargo]

Ya it’s alr just super slow and kinda long

[marsh brook]

alr?

[mental sandal]

Hey anyone know how to get this dang paraffinium so I can craft my colossus

[solid cargo]

I think I added you @worldly salmon

[winter locust]

Read the pin. pyrite and ferrite dust

[mental sandal]

Yea that didn’t help I will figure it out thx anyway

[winter locust]

Pyrite and ferrite dust
In a refiner.

[solemn bane]

You mix those two things in the refiner in your tech inventory.

[mental sandal]

Thank you so much !

[winter locust]

The hardest part is finding Pyrite. People keeping building on Resources.

I get what they are going for.... But stacking everyone in one area is just causing congestion.

[boreal herald]

this is a lie

[remote thunder]

it's not accounting for when we're within another player's base build area and have no building permissions, no 😅

[boreal herald]

sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do i find a place to put it? everywhere says cannot build no build permission

[remote thunder]

If you can't place your geobay, try placing it at the starting processing plant. If that doesn't work, go offline and walk far away from where you were (reporting bases no longer works)

there's no dumb questions, always feel free to ask - but remember to check the pins, sometimes useful info there (we try to do it for all expeditions)

[boreal herald]

thank you!

[remote thunder]

note that when it says "go offline" that's what it means, completely, off, disconnected from internet

[oak thunder]

Anyone else have a problem with those tiny stupid cannisters always slipping off the truck no matter how careful you drive?

[remote thunder]

i try to not stack waste and just have like all of them on the flatbed, that seems to help quite a bit. could also try using mechanical legs and rear tracked treads

[oak thunder]

I have everything flat and even, but just the small, narrow canisters seem to have an interesting relationship with the collision geometry

[remote thunder]

i usually put those in the middle of the flat bed

maybe like 4 or 5 at a time

and seem to do alright

[solid cypress]

Do Expedition rewards go to all saves? I decided to start a new save for the Expedition and completed it but when I tried to redeem the rewards in another save it does not show up

[lofty folio]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[remote thunder]

only the phase and final expedition rewards are unlocked account wide when unlocked in expedition

did you goto quicksilver shop, collect expedition rewards?

[fallow monolith]

Anybody ever accidentally dump all your industrial waste out the back of the hauler and down a steep hill when trying to get into the vehicle?

[fluid otter]

i only have some specialty wastes left for phase 5, but scanning for waste heaps ONLY gives me the 5th checkpoint one, which doesn't have and specialty waste left. what do i do?

[fallow monolith]

Oop, reply was accident

[solid cypress]

Oh looks like I already redeemed it. Thank you!

[fluid otter]

like twice </3

[remote thunder]

you can try to find specialist industrial waste markers either using visor or quick scan -

[fluid otter]

it's gonna take sooo long 😭

[remote thunder]

maybe not. dont just focus on those: sometimes there'll be a specialist waste at an industrial waste marker too

[tidal sleet]

I have five pieces of special explosive waste and I'm in the processing area. Where should I put them? Which waste container?
Road trip 1
can any one help with photo

[remote thunder]

also remember that grav coil magnetize function has quite a bit of distance to it too

[remote thunder]

explosive goes in the furthest right one

[fluid otter]

i actually don't see any specialist waste markers - only visible on exocraft scanner?

only finding normal industrial

[remote thunder]

no, visible on both, when in range ofc

[fluid otter]

🫡

[tidal sleet]

Many Thanks
appreciated

[winter locust]

That dump materials button is evil.

I was trying to get back in to start moving... Boom. ALL DOWN THE HILL.

[thorny turret]

Interesting expedition so far

[whole seal]

I see Industrial Waste everywhere with green HUD icon. Does Special Waste have the same icon? Would Special Waste always say Special Waste on the HUD, or would it sometimes be in with Industrial Waste?

I only see Industrial Waste with visor.

[sly schooner]

hi does anyone have a picture of the wall of text you get once you finish all expedition reawrds? i accidentally skipped it while skipping the rewards list from one of the mission :(

[whole seal]

(I finished the big trash hauls and now need a few more items in Phase 5 to complete all the wastes of diff types: toxic, etc.)

[remote thunder]

see my replies above @whole seal specialist has the same icon

[mild current]

Bro so I scanned all life before I got to phase three where it wants you to discover two creatures with an exocraft… am I cooked? What do I do?

[remote thunder]

that can be different from player to player

[remote thunder]

goto discoveries/system/planet/fauna view and press the additional nanite bonus reward button

that should do it

[sly schooner]

oh so i missed something unique to me aw man

thats annoying lmao, atleast i got the cool outfit :D

[remote thunder]

basically, that screen is where the bonus rewards are shown, how many units, nanites you earned in general etc that kind of stats

[mild current]

I’m not sure I see what you mean? Cause it’s requiring me to scan 2 new creatures

[sly schooner]

is there a way to find it elsewherre, or did i doom myself by skipping it

[remote thunder]

discoveries menu, then go into planet, then fauna, to find this list

[remote thunder]

it's really nothing much, and no, you cant see that screen again now afaik

[mild current]

Yeah but how does that complete the current objective?

[remote thunder]

clicking that button triggers the milestone completion, it's just how it is, a failsafe i guess

[sly schooner]

rip lol

[mild current]

Thank you. I’ll try it when I get home. Appreciate it

[sly schooner]

oh god it feels WEIRD getting access to the ship after all the driving

[whole seal]

Wait - when do you get the furnace for exo in this Expedition so you can destroy waste on spot?

Phase 5 obv

Before very end I guess?

I am in Phase 5.

[remote thunder]

we dont get the furnace as a milestone or phase reward unfortunately - and oh, btw, afaik, using it to destroy specialist industrial waste on the go wont work for the title/colossus parts

[whole seal]

Oh.

Is the furnace not part of the Expedition? Purchaseable on the Anomaly or something?

[tidal sleet]

Is there anyone who can confirm that it's possible to complete phase 4 after completing phase 1 without completing phases 2 and 3 to obtain mechanical legs?

[remote thunder]

nope, see <#nms-expedition message> for phase and final rewards

[remote thunder]

iirc you have to do at least checkpoint milestones from 2 and 3, before you can do phase 4 completely (i.e. including checkpoint IV)

[whole seal]

Ok, so you get it elsewhere.

Thanks.

[remote thunder]

this is what i have atm

[whole seal]

Very helpful - thanks!

I am seeing several (in a row) "Industrial Waste" piles randomly strewn about but theres one Special item in there. I guess that happens.

[remote thunder]

yeah, industrial waste ones can sometimes have a specialist waste too, but the specialist industrial markers specifically will have more

[tribal condor]

wait, did they get rid of the ability to copy your multi-tool and ship for this expedition?

[lusty slate]

If you thought getting 16 of each type in the expedition was tedious, have fun getting 50 of each in main for all the wheel unlocks. 😛

[whole seal]

hmm

In main, I assume the furnace counts (once you get it) to burn certain waste types.

[winter locust]

Dude. I'm about to cheat this expedition. It's so poorly designed. I have to go back into the customization, but I've been riding around for the last 30 mins trying to put down a exocraft machine but I have no edit permission for a base I cannot see.

[lusty slate]

Didn't get rid of it, really. It's just that it requires the Anomaly. Which in an expedition unlocks after first warp. Since this one is almost entirely on one planet, you won't get access to the terminal until the very end.

[lusty slate]

It doesn't. You have to manually process all the special waste for it to count for the unlocks.

[whole seal]

I guess after all the unlocks (and furnace is last @ 200) the furnace is just for burning trash for nanites.

[lusty slate]

Yup. And playing explodey hoops for kicks. 😛

[lusty slate]

I'm almost done with all the titles on main. The special waste ones take the longest. 200 is easy to get, as it's 200 total of all types.

[whole seal]

nods

[tribal condor]

I'm at the anomaly though

I can't copy my multi tool or ship into the expedition this time, only out of it

was hoping to copy my fully loaded Corvette in, but it looks like I'll have to bring the bare minimum parts over to build one instead

wanted to stick around in the expedition to grab an achievement that didn't pop on my main on Steam when I hit the milestone, plus taxi people around that get stuck

[ionic moat]

Is there a easier way to complete roadsigns besides just traveling to abandoned buildings

[lusty slate]

Then yes, it's probably blocked. Not unheard of. Some expeditions have tailored limitations.

[solemn bane]

I don't think it will let you make a Corvette at any point.

[tribal condor]

one way to find out

that would explain how empty the anomaly looked when I went there on the expedition

[fallow monolith]

That would be really nice, I kinda want to become a space taxi now, my corvette is really roomy ^^

[solemn bane]

Mostly because the expedition has this setting: "NeverAllowShipPurchases":true

[marsh plover]

why can only certain people react to messages with emojis

[tribal condor]

wait a dang minute. I can't even send materials to the expedition. oh nooooooooo

[marsh plover]

thanks bk someone need to mod this guy

[solemn bane]

You can, just can't claim them until you're done.

[tribal condor]

I am done

the boxes are grayed out if I load the terminal from the main save side

[solemn bane]

You can't send materials after you start I don't think

Er, after you end

[tribal condor]

has that always been a thing?

oh well yeah

[solemn bane]

I think so

You can send stuff out, but not in

You know, maybe.

Honestly don't think I've ever tried

BUT I saw no new config for that on this expedition, so I assume however it works is how it usually works

[tribal condor]

might have to break out the good old save editor then

[solemn bane]

If you're on PC you can just go offline and enable ship buying in the expedition config. Oh, looks like you're Steamdeck. The SEASON_DATA_CACHE.JSON file is in /home/deck/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/275850/pfx/drive_c/Users/SteamUser/AppData/Roaming/HelloGames/NMS/{steam id}/cache I think

If you change "NeverAllowShipPurchases":true to "NeverAllowShipPurchases":false it should work.

Oh but you still want the items, right

Well, that'll at least let you make a corvette. I think.

[kind marsh]

should i drop waste indivually on each scrapper thing, or shoul i use the drop hud?

[tribal condor]

eh PC or Deck, depends
but good to know

[solemn bane]

Special waste won't count if you do it via the console.

[solemn bane]

PC's here: %APPDATA%\HelloGames\NMS\{steam id}\cache

[kind marsh]

so should i drop each one individually?

[solemn bane]

yep

[sacred arch]

if i just wanna play the normal game, will i eventually be able to do the expedition stuff or is it a seasonal and then might go away?

[oak thunder]

I already found all the animal species on the planet, but the Field Guide milestone says 0/6 and won't complete 😭

@sacred arch exp21 does have a limited runtime, but the devs will most likely rerun it at the end of this year, like they normally do - this one, and any new expedition they might release further into the year. to give all players at least two opportunities to get the goodies

[oak thunder]

Thank yooou

[sacred arch]

nice

it might sound kinda dumb but i saw a sale on steam and ofc the page has a HQ video, but that made wanna play again since i got a new pc. game pass ftw

[remote thunder]

sounds like it got you interested again - that's nice, i hope you have lots of fun. anything else just ask 🙂

[sacred arch]

yea i gotta setup new trade routes

last time i started to like log my planets in obsidian, i think i may do that again

[ivory river]

May I ask what you mean by "log my planets in obsidian"

[short tendon]

Are they planning to add more ships for expeditions i wonder

[ivory river]

In game or some other software?

[sacred arch]

what i did was made a log of the name of the system, how many planet, if it had certain umm things in it, what the resources for trading were...i forget all

[ivory river]

Thank you

I'm new barely scratching 50 hours today

[sacred arch]

yea i deleted it, had about 30 or so entries

but it did help alot with setting up trade routes

[ivory river]

Just reading what I can here to understand this gorgeous game

[sacred arch]

for sure, im gonna be sinking at least a good 50 hours to get back to where i was

and i didnt even have the complete ships

was like a few years ago so there is more now

[solemn bane]

PC can play any expeditions at any time for as long as they want while offline, with a little workaround.

[median warren]

I screwed up lmao so at the end of the expedition you go back and go to the terminal I didnt leave my stuff in the terminal I put it on my spaceship and my exosuit and hit end expedition well I lost it all instead of leaving it in the terminal

[warm sigil]

Once I complete the Expedition, will I be able to access my Exocraft's inventory from the Space Anomaly?

[solemn bane]

At least you get cash for it

[solemn bane]

nope

[median warren]

Haha ya I got alot lmao 🤣 @solemn bane owell is wht it is I just finished it bout 30 mins ago

[warm sigil]

So what I want autosold I should put in there and what I want to keep in my suit.

[solemn bane]

Yeah, and from your suit you'll put it in the terminal

[median warren]

Ya i left it all in my suit and spaceship not in the terminal at the anomaly lol@warm sigil

[tribal condor]

oh man they got me good. can't even use the select other ship button, it's grayed out. I might have to delete the hauler from my expedition save and replace it with my corvette for this to work

[fallow monolith]

That feeling when you pull up to waste heap, you need 3 rad waste, but theres only 2 in the heap

[solemn bane]

Oh, another thing you can change in the JSON config file is "AllowSaveContextShipTransfer":false to true so you can just copy a ship over.

[tribal condor]

oooooh nice

[glass solar]

Where can I find all the fauna

What are they

[tribal condor]

animals

[solemn bane]

Discovery tab tells you when/where to look

[pastel sun]

Hey guys, i got a question. I finished the expedition. But outside the expedition i can't make a flatbed, its locked. How do i unlock it?

[crude bison]

Reset game

[last crown]

I can't find mineral 7 and 8

[solemn bane]

Process one waste and relog if it doesn’t unlock.

[torpid shard]

I have this issue as @shrewd sundial describes. i cannot collect rewards for Field Guide and finish the Expedition or transfer items out of it. Anyone seen a solution for this?

[wanton frigate]

It's not a bug. It's a LOT of rewards.

[torpid shard]

how many slots?

[wanton frigate]

Off the top of my head I think about a row and a half or two rows of skulls and bones.

[torpid shard]

good god

[wanton frigate]

Yeah, and some of them are admittedly weird and cool but it's a crazy reward to give in an expedition with limited pocket space and no easy access to Storage Containers.

[torpid shard]

ok got it, can you not trasnfer back and forth between saves more than once or do you have to end it to collect your items?

oh wait I see return to primary save in the menu

just not at the terimal

[wanton frigate]

When it's over you can yes, and free up space. I don't know if you get the finish dialogue before you accept all the rewards though, I think you have to accept that reward before the Terminal slots open.

Empty your pockets into your ship, or build a corvette for more space if you can afford it

[torpid shard]

ok got it

another question: Does copying the starship to the normal save just add one to my inventory?

[scenic pond]

Anyone else having trouble with finding the last mineral? I e scanned everything on the surface and crawled through every cave I can find.

[scenic pond]

You can find all of them easy on the ground, just keep an eye on the sky and scan the birds to

[harsh laurel]

pebbles

[glass solar]

Yea I got the message earlier

[chrome meadow]

expedition COMPLETE!!!

[scenic pond]

I’ve scanned those, the only one I found is called bigrock

[oak thunder]

They're a VERY small rock on the grey-ish cracked patches of ground

[elder pumice]

I really do feel the landscape simulates the sea

[scenic pond]

You mean those completely blank spots with nothing but hazardous flora?

[harsh laurel]

literally pebbles, not the stones

[glass solar]

Nice! I’m on the last stage

[chrome meadow]

I was stuck on stage three, completed everything but stage three, then the waypoint mission was bugged, so, eh

[scenic pond]

Got it, things friend!

[harsh laurel]

i had it easy, i found them first try. but they were soo small! congrats tho

[last crown]

I found the last two. One can be found in the wide trenches

[oak thunder]

Finally dooone \o/

no more trucking for me. honestly, I'd be fired if it was my job. I lost cargo constantly.

[tribal condor]

i'm a mad scientist
deleting the hauler with a save editor and leaving my corvette as the only ship i had in the expedition made it so that i could use my corvette, even though the select other ships button is disabled for this exp

[heavy sapphire]

Anyone have waypoints still not registering after last patch? still stuck at 2 of 6. Irritating, to say the least

[oak thunder]

I debated doing that but it seemed like a lot of work >.<

[tribal condor]

one of my friends was having that issue but since he'd beaten everything else and had a ship working, he just flew to one of the other planets, flew around looking for buildings, then used the waypoints next to those

[tribal condor]

well yes and no
the save editor i used was last edited before corvettes were added
it somehow almost handles this gracefully

[heavy sapphire]

I'll give that a go, thanks

[tribal condor]

right now i have a corvette with a really basic build and none of the parts i added, but all of the upgrades

kind of a miracle i didn't break my save

https://github.com/vectorcmdr/NMSSaveEditor/releases seems to be an updated fork so i'll try using that
if this is against server rules or something i'll delete

[oak thunder]

there's few things I won't put up with for a pretty outfit and I really like this new 'fit

I'm not super keen on the armour piece because it's A Bit Much, but the rest? 10/10

[tribal condor]

anyway my expedition corvette taxi service is now up and running if anyone's needing it in the evenings in the US

[tribal condor]

new outfit goes hard

[torn pewter]

Hello guys

i need some help at the expedition

[thorny turret]

Where are the minerals needed for petrology?

[torpid shard]

hmmph. Finished expedition, relogged, the whole 9. Flatbed shows locked

all other colossus things like the mechanical legs are unlocked however

[solemn bane]

You crafted the grav gun and recycled one waste?

[torpid shard]

oh lol. No

thanks

where do i have to do this?

[torn pewter]

how can i restart the expedition if it's bugged?

[torpid shard]

I don't have a quest

I also don't have the grav gun as a multitool option

[tribal condor]

bugged how

[torn pewter]

can you come voice?

[tribal condor]

getting late for me so i'd prefer not to

[solemn bane]

Find a planet that says Salvagable Scrap, land, summon your collosus, build a radar if necessary, scan for a processing plant, interact with the console, build the grav gun, it'll tell you to do some stuff and finally to process one scrap

[torpid shard]

got it thanks

[torn pewter]

i can't scan the animal left

5/6

common/flying/diurnal

[tribal condor]

are you done with everything else?

[torn pewter]

not yet , i only have to get all the trash

like toxicity , irradiated cargo and volatile payload

and ofc field guide

[tribal condor]

huh, alright, this didn't bring my corvette design over either, i just got this ugly thing

still workable for moving people i suppose

[tribal condor]

do that first, then once it gives you your ship for getting all the trash see if you can scan animals on one of the other planets

[torn pewter]

i have it

the ship

[kind marsh]

is there water in the exp. planet?

[tribal condor]

nope

there's caves
and a day/night cycle though, if that helps hunt down animals

[tribal condor]

man they are just determined to not let me have my fun

[worldly salmon]

I too am stuck with that one

they make it really hard to help people sometimes

[kind marsh]

Very interesting name for a mineral

[tribal condor]

12 more and it'll get GOTY

[lusty slate]

Got all the main game titles/customizations now. I'll start the expedition tomorrow.

I wonder if I'll have a smoother time since I've already been driving this thing for hours...

[tribal condor]

i have to respect the grind for still playing despite being locked to switch 1

[lusty slate]

You need to start the hauling mission in the main game. Go to a scrap planet and scan for a plant. Interact with the computer and a mission will start and prompt you.

[lusty slate]

I'm been playing since the Switch 1 port launch in 2022. This is a 900hr save.

[pliant crane]

help I went through a portal to the space station on a whim when passing a base and I can't get back to the expedition

[tribal condor]

i got you
managed to hack a corvette in

you still at the station?

[pliant crane]

yeah. Is it all one server? my hero

[tribal condor]

what platform are you on

[pliant crane]

Steam/PC

[tribal condor]

ok good one sec
if we don't somehow get matched up in the same server I'll dig out my FC

[pliant crane]

oop someone in game is on the way to save me now

ty so much tho

[tribal condor]

awesome

[obtuse talon]

Is this expedition good?

[little owl]

Has anyone else in VR completed this expedition?

[wary wadi]

Is anyone else stuck not being able to build a colossus exocraft platform because they don't have building rights anywhere?

I have to go offline to do it?

Must be too crowded.

[proper kayak]

Did the save editor get updated?

[solemn bane]

The consensus seems to be that it is the worst expedition, that said I've seen some people say they like it.

[solemn bane]

I was able to build mine on the first waste processing plant. Everything around it was blocked off.

[hoary shadow]

i turned multiplayer off in the main menu before starting the expedition and have had zero issues

[obtuse talon]

I see I saw some videos about it and it seems like it’s not worth it

[hoary shadow]

if you want the cosmetics, do it, if not, dont

[solemn bane]

The new cosmetic set is pretty cool, but yeah you gotta want it.

[obtuse talon]

I think I will pass

[frozen laurel]

I had fun driving around.

[solemn bane]

I did not have fun trying to drive around.

[frozen laurel]

I used those meteor or worm half-tunnels on the surface as roads. They're much smoother, straight lines, and only sometimes have holes into caverns to avoid.

[solemn bane]

Yeah the 15 seconds of being able to drive was cool.

Then came the other 30 minutes of my journies.

[frozen laurel]

I was really surprised with the range you can pick up items with the multitool.

[marsh haven]

if the crashing was because of rocks rather than my xbox. can't wait for a patch

[solemn bane]

Did you try changing the mode the xbox was in? I remember someone saying it performed better with higher settings, counterintuitively.

[marsh haven]

Intergalactic trash recycler is not a game i would download from Steam. but here we are.
my only problem with the expedition is, well, my xbox. The expedition ive managed to play outside of the constant crashing is not awful.
There are seriously people who think this expedition is worse than the fishing one?

[solemn bane]

Not even close in my mind.

[wary wadi]

I do like how they made it so the stuff stays inside the flatbed. That's nice. If it wasn't a feature I wouldn't be playing right now out of frustration.

[whole seal]

Finding these last explosive and toxic waste items in phase 5 is killing me. If I got back to one of the trash pile sites, will it have new/replenished waste to pick up? Finding it randomly is taking a very long time.

[primal fjord]

Will they ever release any of the old expansions for newer players to play through occasionally?

[torpid shard]

saw a graphic with the rewards for both expedition and after. Was that here?

[torpid shard]

going to the waste areas is far easier

[whole seal]

But I've already been there -- is it refreshed with waste?

[torpid shard]

I had to hit two for the last few on my milestones

[edgy hamlet]

I think it would have helped if the boost wasnt so aweful on the truck.

But the fixed the crashing now do it is playable at least now which im very happy about

[whole seal]

I think there are no boost upgrades in this expedition right?

[torpid shard]

I did not get any, although I got quite a few S tier engine upgrades

[edgy hamlet]

I havent seen anything yet myself. Only mv speed modules whcih i dont know cause they cause you to loose more cargo going to fast

[torpid shard]

got remember your Ts and Cs. Tap the throttle and Crap yourself everytime waste gets launched out the back

[slim elm]

Does the space station in exp system stay in my teleportal terminal after exp?

Wasn't a new save

[solemn bane]

They replay the ones from the current year at the end of the year, they rarely bring other ones back. If you are on PC you can play any of them whenever you want offline with a workaround.

[solemn bane]

It has varying degrees of success

[winter locust]

Was multiplayer on? I turned it off after a while and it seems to have helped with goofy physics.

[solemn bane]

Not mine, but mine did start doing that shit. I play offline.

[winter locust]

I've had my truck get ghost acceleration, but nothing crazy like that yet.

[solemn bane]

I was barely able to do the 5 special scrap on my main save. After that I just used my collosus to scan for processing plants, fly there in my ship, processed the waste there manually and repeated for the 200. No way I can do the special waste achievements with the physics how it is now. I literally moved an inch and the entire payload just shoots out.

Mainly it just doesn't tie into the game at all. Like with Corvette you scavenge parts to make a spaceship in the spaceship game. And the spaceship does cool stuff. What do I get with scrapping waste? Why, the ability to scrap more waste. 😐

[winter locust]

Really? Wonder what the difference is for why some people have really loose flatbeds and others seem to be pretty normal. I'm currently doing RT4 and so far it's been mostly alright. I don't bother with normal scrap, just special. Most I've ever had in the back is 16.

[solemn bane]

Bad physics in the bad physics game, mostly. Different hardware and graphical settings not being compensated for. NMS isn't very good at physics or multiplayer, so when they focus on one or the other for an expedition it's a nightmare.

Corvette was amazing, but multiplayer+physics=hilariously buggy.

[winter locust]

RT 4 hooked and rollin.... Hopefully no goofy shi happens.

[wintry inlet]

wow. nice work 😮

[marsh brook]

In all seriousness, who was the brain child behind thie expedition? On top of that, who was the team who green lit this, thinking it was a good idea?

drives 15 minutes to get to waste location... Picks up trash... searches for nearest disposal location... 18 minutes way... but now you have to drive slower and more carefully so as not to lose or dsetroy the items in the back. Now.. Lets make the people do this 4 times.

[patent dove]

The small radiation canisters are the worst... sometimes i had them just clip out of my bed for no reason

Then I spent 20 minutes hunting down a single toxic to complete that one. That was.... enraging

I had the foresight to play with multiplayer off because I probably would have broken a controler if I tried with other people.....

[winter locust]

Yeah, this feels like a smaller part of a larger update, almost. We'd do this for 30 mins and move on, type content. The drives are sooooo long.

[patent dove]

It litteraly comes down to your settings.... they impact the physics in ways they shouldn't

[marsh haven]

microsoft fixed that for me by raising the price of gamepass the way cwmonkey's game raises his trash

[patent dove]

At the very, very least they could have picked a planet that wasn't Sysaphusian levels of mountain

[stark whale]

that's the fun in it

[marsh haven]

do we get anything other than nanites for processing trash? this ... doesn't look like something ima continue on my main save

[marsh brook]

It would be alright if it was actually fun to do... But this is like playing death stranding without the monsters.... It's just point A to point B to point A to point C and so on. Maybe designed to test new mechanics in the engine? either way, I cannot be done with this fast enough.

[light plume]

other than cosmetics (for colossus), associated player titles and expedition rewards no

[oak thunder]

I also found this expedition a chore... but I needed that fit

[marsh haven]

so, like fishing, its an expedition activity.

[light plume]

ig processing the specialised scrap gives phosphorous/uranium/one other thing probably

[winter locust]

Almost done....

[marsh brook]

I'm basically in the same spot lol

[tender crescent]

desert planet in the remnant expedition was so good except the steep terrain. It was a bit of a bummer that I couldn't make a tunnel straight through the steep mountains, since there is bedrock. But I enjoyed it, it was really good.

[oak thunder]

If you're determined to play as some kinda scrappy scrap-hauling guy... sunken ships and stuff are already right there. I was determined to buy my first freighter with nothing but the money I earned from scrapping sunken ships and it was actually really fun

But hauling dangerous waste around a planet... nah, no thanks

[winter locust]

I will say: The legs feel a bit smoother on the ground. You get them for Phase 4 rewards, equip em asap.

[solemn lion]

Thanks for answer. That was the issue ✌️

[tender tusk]

Some of the Customization pieces are obtainable outside of the expedition by doing these activities here's a diagram so you can do them if you want or not

[solemn bane]

Ha, great. Maybe like the third time I've seen the issue.

[solemn lion]

Still have other issues. Already did all things in expedition but cannot summon anomaly. There is just no button. In older expeditions you needed to warp to other system for button to appear is that the case? Or you need redeem specific reward from expedition missions, because i still didn't redeemed all of them, wanted to go to anomaly first?

[solemn bane]

Yeah you need to redeem the rewards

[solemn lion]

All of them or there is specific one?

[solemn bane]

It may be all of them, but you can start with the phase 5 main reward and see if that does it.

[solemn lion]

Ok thanks ✌️ will try

[night sluice]

How do I get my items from the expedition to my main save if I can’t get to the anomaly?

[solemn bane]

Claim rewards

[night sluice]

Thanks

Wait, no, I meant the stuff in my inventory

And the 600 quicksilver I got as a reward from an expedition quest

[solemn bane]

You'll need to claim rewards to be able to get to the Anomaly

[night sluice]

Ohh, I didn’t see the “starship is now available” portion

[sullen meteor]

what should I supercharge to maximize speed? the engine or the upgrades?

[solemn bane]

I didn't notice much difference. I opted for the S class with +top speed

[sullen meteor]

sorry I meant for the colossus

[solemn bane]

me too

[sullen meteor]

are suspicious upgrades available for exocraft?

[winter locust]

Took me 6 hours to do that expedition.

Felt like 12.

[sullen meteor]

is there a way to change which colossus variant you have active without building a geobay?

[fallow monolith]

How do I access expedition mods like the spider legs in the main game?

[sullen meteor]

they're unlocked by completing achievements related to scrapping

[solemn bane]

The spider legs will be unlocked for all your saves once you unlock them in the expedition.

[fallow monolith]

How do I get other gear like off road or caterpillar?

[solemn bane]

Find a scrap processing place with your collosus, learn the grav gun, go scrappin

[nimble sage]

I tried making tunnels elsewhere, no problem with bedrock, but colossus does not really fit in. It takes so much excavation and even then it tries to climb the walls

[nimble sage]

yes, but pilots land rarely

[sullen meteor]

are there upgrades for the flamethrower?

[outer lotus]

Thats a good question.

I know the minotaur flamer has upgrades.

[wraith junco]

Probably. But easyest to check would be to look for them on space stations outside of expedition

[outer lotus]

After a brief investigation it appears that there are no mounted flamethrower upgrades. The minotaur flamethrower gets them but not the one for other exocraft. That sucks.

[sullen meteor]

did you try installing the minotaur flamethrower mods in the colossus?

[thick umbra]

Impossible

[neon belfry]

What ? I did it yesterday sir

(Hello by the way)

Ka-chiiiing

[wanton delta]

How should I store or reduce my excess of items in the expedition?

[cloud marten]

Yooo any tips to find waypoint beacons outside of planetary structures?

[sullen meteor]

the colossus should have plenty of storage, and if not you can safely trash the dinosaur bones

[cloud marten]

Sell it use it scrap it process it discard it 😂

Oooh

[cloud marten]

Cause i cant really get to a space station lol

[sullen meteor]

every junkyard and waste processing facility has a waypoint beacon, you should be able to get the milestone done just off of that

and you can always use the radar to search for other structures

also if you keep your eyes open you'll probably stumble across a few as you journey between scrapyards and salvage facilities...

[cloud marten]

Thx bro i didnt know there’s were multiple salvage facilities

[spark current]

I think i might have messed up… i reached a quest to scan 3 animals with the collosus scanner…. But i did that already on foot, meaning there are no animals for me to scan?😭😭

[wanton delta]

Are we supposed to be able to build a base? What is the asymmetrical cabin?

[sullen meteor]

it's just an alternate cockpit for the colossus that makes it look more like a garbage truck

there's not much point building a base in this expedition since 95% of the content involves driving very slowly over mountaintops to deliver giant explosive eggs

[solemn bane]

After scanning and uploading on the discoveries tab, both milestones complete.

[sullen meteor]

fortunately they anticipated that many players would do that, so no it's not possible to softlock yourself in this way

typically in an expedition you need a bunch of nanites in the beginning so that you can go to the anomaly and unlock your imported ship and multitool, so scanning around for wildlife is usually the first thing I do, it's habit at this point lol

[strong dagger]

i finished the expedition took me a while but it was pretty cool

[cinder acorn]

ok wtf is going on im peacefully fully loaded then suddenly this mf colossus decided to go mach fuck and wont stop so all the cargo is all over the place seriously wtf

I JUST LOST LIKE 15 SPECIAL CARGO

MOTHER......

[tribal condor]

you get a trade rocket at some point during the expedition
so I just put all the bones in there as soon as I had it

why would they just decide to bloat your inventory space with a double digit number of decently valuable items like that during an expedition

[grim vortex]

Is there any mechanical difference between the different colossus wheel types? Stability, etc? I mean, the spide legs are -cool-, but are they -better-?

[remote thunder]

currently on steam experimental branch:

The Field Guide milestone now awards fewer skulls, lessening the inventory space required to claim it.

[remote thunder]

it seems so, yes. for example rear tracked treads might also help if you dont have mechanical legs yet.

also on steam experimental atm, this one, will certainly be appreciated

Fixed an issue that could cause Exocraft to get caught on obstacles.

[cloud marten]

Yooooo auto collect doesn’t count for the processing 😭😭😭

[remote thunder]

yeah, it doesn't

[grim vortex]

The mechanical legs are better/more stable?

[remote thunder]

yep, people have been posting that feedback

[spark current]

I cant for the love of god discover 8 minerals

[rancid hazel]

is there a workaround if i cannot find 8 minerals in the planet i landed? :/ I cannot see any new and i even checked underground. haven't checked under water because i havent even seen an ocean or lake yet

[jagged spruce]

try this

some minerals are really small and I think one is found on a gap on a downwards slope thing

[fallen junco]

I hope this leads to more customisation for Exocrafts!

[spark current]

It was the little one thank you love you

[median warren]

@spark current the lil ones are found in the river bed thts the one I was stuck on as well lol

[jagged spruce]

I want more minotaur ones

[spark current]

My first expedition, can we keep whatever we got during it? (Modules, nanites)

[tribal condor]

yes, but there's only so much space in the expedition terminal at the end
so what I usually do is put as much as I can in there, save, return to my primary save from the pause menu, go back to the expedition terminal from my main save and take everything out, resume the expedition, rinse and repeat
do NOT press the end expedition button until everything you want to move over has been moved over

you'll have to uninstall your suit/car/multitool upgrades first if you want to bring those over, of course
it is also worth noting that while the expedition is still active, you can spend a flat rate of nanites at the terminal from your main save to create copies of your expedition multi-tool or expedition ship, not that either of those would be particularly useful from this expedition

units and nanites will get automatically brought back to your main save once you hit the end expedition button

[fallen junco]

Terminal what now?

[tribal condor]

https://nomanssky.fandom.com/wiki/Expedition_Terminus

[fallen junco]

Thanks

[mighty timber]

Is there any communication sell points anywhere bc I cant find any and my inventory is full ☹️

Never mind i found one

[fallen junco]

How do I get the wide-screen cockpit option for the colossus?

[wraith junco]

Read all expedition tasks and what rewards they give. One unlocks trade rocket that u can summon to sell stuff

[obtuse ingot]

Those mechanical legs are 🔥

Anyone else take back the S-tier fusion engines back with them to main save?

[mighty timber]

Its all good i just found a free one lmao

[vale sundial]

I’m not sure what I’m supposed to be doing for the waypoint part

[wraith junco]

Interact with the save poles at points of intrests

It can be bugged if playing with multiplayer on

[leaden glen]

Me, reading at reddit threads: surely this can't be that bad.
Me, playing the expedition: I didn't even see the cargo dropping out of the flatbed, what, nooooooo.

[wraith junco]

Smallest containers sometines do that. I put big containers around the flatbed walls to block them of. Its not perfect but helps a bit.

[leaden glen]

Ugh. That's clever. I tend to just drop stuff carefully from the outside of the truck, but I could just arrange things too

[little robin]

so the expedition is just driving for 15 minutes to the waste disposal spot -3-

[wraith junco]

[neon belfry]

Maybe a dumb question, how do i unlock the colossus parts ? By doing the expedition ?

And hi everyone, hope you're fine

[jagged spruce]

you keep the units and nanites you got, and even more bonus from stuff you did. and you can sell and keep items in the expedition terminus. I got 16 million at the end after selling everything

[jagged spruce]

except those still aren't fixed yet

it's supposedly fixed in the experimental branch on steam but I wouldn't know if it's actually fixed

[jagged spruce]

you get asymmetrical cabin and mechanical legs from the expedition. for flatbed, you have to craft a gravatino coil by getting the blueprint aboard the anomaly, and after scanning and reaching a waste processing plant and recycling a few scraps, you get it. for the furnace, you need to have 3000 nanites collected in the industrial cleanup mission (NOT in the expedition). you get the other stuff like wheels from getting milestones like 50 toxic waste recycled, again outside the expedition.

[vague fractal]

As a new player who just got the game yesterday, it looks like this is the perfect first expedition for me. I have no previous expectations for having a ship or being able to leave the planet. Trucker life? Let's go. 😆
That said, will I have any issues later on if I start/complete the expedition without having progressed very far on a normal save?

[ivory inlet]

No, they're completely separate.

After you finish the expedition you'll be able to collect the rewards for it in your normal save at the Nexus in the Space Anomaly (if you follow the main quest, you'll eventually end up there).

[spark current]

nanites for words

damn no gifs perms oops

[vague fractal]

great! thanks

[ivory inlet]

I also don't think there's a time limit on collecting those rewards either, so take your time.

[jagged spruce]

there's like a lot of knowledge stones

in the expedition

[little robin]

welcome and have fun!!!!

[neon belfry]

Oh okay, good to know, thank you. Do you know if i can reach the "expedition" planet, when my on expedition is over ? Seems like a great place to farm

[rocky fractal]

You can, if you get the portal coords. But I imagine there's better planets to farm on.

[dry patrol]

... my colossus keeps running away from me while I'm loading it and I think its a glitch specific to the crab legs because it never did this on half track

this isnt even rolling downhill type running away, this is full accelleration up hills

[neon belfry]

Thanks everyone for your time and your answers

[neon belfry]

Point it to the waste center and let it work alone

[thick umbra]

You probably re-programmed it .. 🙂 .. happens sometimes

[neon belfry]

Wait, what do you mean ?

[viscid sparrow]

thats a joke i believe

[thick umbra]

no .. did happen to me if I grab a waste and drop it with full power into the bed... standing behind of my truck

[neon belfry]

Oh, oh... i'm not native english, i don't get when it's too subtile jokes

[rocky fractal]

You know what a joke is... sending me 12 mins to a waste heap, only to send me back to the same waste processing plant, then another 15 to the next heap

[little robin]

why do i see half finished houses everywhere???

[thick umbra]

But yeah sometimes that truck has its own brain
Did just reload and did have no control

[thick umbra]

must be a bug .. in exp21 you should not be able to build any bases

[rocky fractal]

afaik, it's from people building afterwards i think. either way I made the mistake of having MP on and my world is littered with them too

[thick umbra]

thats strange I´m on experimental version and dont see any other bases

[verbal imp]

So is my expedition permanently bugged?

Because I can't build an exocraft thing

Thanks, game

[rocky fractal]

Excuse me. Who put this wall here?

You must now complete ALL of phase 5 to unlock your ship

Ugh

[fallen junco]

Can you only get the mech legs if you do the expedition?

[velvet moon]

I'm on the 16 16 16

[remote thunder]

[mighty timber]

I only got phase 4 to finish and 5 to start so yay

[rocky fractal]

Okay, that was less painful than imagined.

[remote thunder]

@fallen junco that said, remember that as usual, devs will most likely rerun this expedition again later this year, giving you another opportunity

[velvet moon]

Is there a way to find a closer waste heap

[viscid sparrow]

the scan shows you the closest one

[velvet moon]

17 minutes ....(I know it's not that long.But still it's a few lol )

[rocky fractal]

I'm attempting to go to the next heap and hope there's a closer plant there tbh
