Missing crashed Interceptor

Hello,

New player, first time posting.

Yesterday somebody posted the location of a crashed S-class Interceptor complete with glyphs and planet coordinates. I went to check it out but it was not there. I even tried turning off multiplayer and reloading the game. I know I was in the right place because someone had placed a comm ball there.

Any idea why it would not show up for me?

Cheers!

Is there a way to set recharge priorities on a ship

I’m flying an interceptor. Is there away for me to set up shields to be the first thing to come up in the menu.

What do I do with my S-class ship?

So I’m pretty new to nms (about 8-10 hours) and I just got an exotic ship. It’s looks dope and all but how practical is it in the actual game. I can tell it’s not a fighter or any of the other ship sections. I also know I can sell it. Any help would be dope

New and died

I wasn't playing survival but didn't know when I die in space my personal inventory will be gone. I have my ships stuff, but nothing else. That hurts. If I have a container in a base on a planet, can anyone open it to use it or just my player? Is the stuff in there safe as long as it's powered or forever? Currently back at anomaly and it's a bit daunting to go out with nothing again.

Buy/sell percentage question

So I understand for the most part how the economy works in the game, what I'm not seeing is whether or not the system's price modifier changes?

For example, if I find a science system with a 75% sell modifier, is it worth it to plop down a base next to a trading post, and use it forever for all it's in demand goods? Or is that number going to change every set amount of hours, meaning I need to just check the map every time I have a lot to sell? Thanks guys

More glitches

So I'm at a pirate station and this time it started off like my first post with the little itty bitty here and there glitches but as I did more missions it got worse over time it is not the GPU and it's not my screen it is actually part of the game I've been trying to figure out what's happening and I came to the conclusion that it's probably something that's forced to make you explore.

Upload unavailable for 25 Seconds...

What does this mean? Is my base too big? It was fine awhile ago. I haven't added that much and since this message began, I have been deleting and making my base much smaller. I still get this message. Is it being uploaded or not? Anyone else experience this?

Game breaks when I access base computer on Switch. Any suggestions?

Hi, I've built my largest base to date but now when I try to access the base computer this happens. I've tried leaving the base and coming back but it still won't work. The game is up to date.

Vr play

I recently got into PSVR 2, and I'm enjoying it so far, but I have a question.

What are some good tips to make the VR experience in No Man's Sky feel smoother and more enjoyable, especially when exploring planets or getting into space battles?
