If you like to have (different) music on the background while playing the game, here’s a playlist I’ve been maintaining for over five years now.

Ethereal Synth

Also great to have while coding or studying.

sorriest system in the galaxy for finding crashed ships

https://preview.redd.it/2xt0emcjt0td1.png?width=2337&format=png&auto=webp&s=c0e53dcf9b1140fd4237c122a6ca19912b4ebb4f

the dissonant planet has no ships, tried both echo locator and signal locator

the dead planet has no ships

and even has 4 planets only which is rare

it's a 3* economy but that's it, worst system for crashed ship searching

I'm on the 3rd planet and got a "nothing found" message, don't know what I was suppose to find but never happened before :D

4th planet is tainted, tried singnal locator only to get "can't, another building active", but I can only see an abandoned one on another planet which doesn't lead to finding a ship

After coming back and clearing 3 abandoned buildings, I did get a signal only to find a ship with the pilot near that needed rescue or something, so I couldn't get the ship

Cleared another abandoned building, then I got another signal, and found what appears to be a C hauler worth only 16M. I was searching for fighters hoping to get a better one that I got in a Korvax system which wasn't even 3*

In the end wasted 12 signal maps and got only the 16M ships and a bunch of swiped horror eggs

Facepalm system :D

thrusters do not work overcharged

placed thrusters and mods on overcharged slots, does nothing in terms of reducing consumption. EDIT: even though the number goes up in the mod's report

Question about extractor placement.

I've found a S class spot to build a 'large' farm which will yield me about 40 to 50k as a start. After placing the first 4 extractors the yield was 1260u per hour. Wether In place the next 4 on top (like I did now) or next to the original ones, the yield only goes up to 1460u. I've tried connecting them in different ways (top 4 to each other and then down, or each individual top extractor linked to one on the lower level), but the yield stays the same. Am I doing something wrong or is this just the way NMS works?

Base problems

Hey everyone I have a slight problem that I don't know how to fix, essentially anytime I go off planet or go away from my base for a certain period of time rocks, terrain, trees, and other biome related things "grow" in my base. Is there a way for this to not happen at all? Any solutions would help thanks 😊.

This undiscovered planet has to base on it.

I seen this exact type of thing before where the planet says it's undiscovered yet there's based upon it. I'm assuming it's probably because it can't talk to the server for some reason and so it just put in default data. When I landed on the planet then it said that the base was there but I discovered the planet.

My first time in 3 years.

Oh Yeah the Game changed a lot. My old save is gone, but I am not sad about it, I wanted to start new anyways. What is the best method for Units and Nantes farming?

P. S. Landing on Water is now possible? WTF?

Maybe some downgrade is the redesign of the Space Station Interieur, I liked the old design very much.

Now I am farming salvaged data. ASAP the portable refinery for your backpack. ASAP the fuel saving upgrades for the Space ship. Building with silicate is very cool, just dig something and you have it. The best way for your first stations.

A helpful tip for new players!

When working on the tutorial missions, do not leave the mission area if there isn’t a red icon visible. Currently Im on my 3rd play through and ive only put 60 hrs into the game, and it is all because my ADD got the best of me!

1st time was when the awakening mission brought me to a shipwreck. I got excited and repaired the ship, leaving the area to get some units for it. Little did i know, the mission wanted me to go through the pilot’s log for the hyperdrive blueprint. Without the red icon, i could not find the crash site and was unable to progress in the game from my starter system.

2nd time was during the Artemis quest line. I was tasked with going through a crashed freighter. I landed and started the quest, but my ADD wanted to leapfrog black holes. So i left the area and hopped through 4 black holes thinking i could just teleport back to the space station where my mission was. Apparently I never docked in the space station in the system the mission resided in and was left with 20 plus warps to hopefully get back to the mission system. The distance was so far, I believe the game glitched and just was guessing what direction to go. After the first 15 warps, i noticed that the warp destinations would change every time i warped. It also kept giving me dreadnoughts in every system I warped to.

Hoping to not make the same mistake again 👍🤠 I probably will! 😅
