I'm just starting out on the expedition and trying to visit all the starting planet's moons. This is being made more difficult by the number of bases in this system. I can't point my ship at one and see if it's temperate or if it's radioactive, or if it's frozen or so on. This is because I'm only given information about one base on each planet.

Is there a way to turn this off?

So, I'm doing the expedition and trying to not get irritated about it as is usual for me.

Unfortunately, the game isn't playing along with that. I'm on one of the moons of the starting gas giant. The paradise world. I'm trying to find all the animals so I can retrieve some things I actually like rather than the stating gear.

Most of the animals are aquatic so I jump into the water... I haven't tried finding fish in quite a few updates but it appears some of them spawned in a water-cave under the lake I found. I dig down and... the moment I enter any hole in the ground while underwater I'm returned to the surface.

This lake isn't deep so I'm fighting buoyancy the entire time but being snapped back to the surface doesn't seem like an intended behavior.

So, now that I've got the Boundary Herald I was considering outfitting it for raiding and seeing if I could make something formidable out of it like my Sentinel Interceptor. For the Interceptor I just used the Sentinel Cannon and the shield-leeching laser... for the Herald, unfortunately, the Sentinel Cannon isn't an option. So what do you use if not that?

I was thinking Positron Ejector and Cyclotron Ballista but it's been a long time since I've re-evaluated my choices so I'd like second opinions.

So, I've reached the Genetic Glitch objective... I'm in the Andalen Osaka system... the one the third gate takes you to.

I've found the light creature on the Planet of Light but hunting for every animal across an entire planetary body has never been my thing. I really don't want to do it for five planets (none of the others stand out as being able to spawn anom animals).

Where's the other anomalous animal and about what does it look like? Is it terrestrial or does it live in air, underground, or water?

Anyone found a way to silence the voices that taunt us frequently throughout the whole expedition?

I'm having a frustrating enough time of it, I don't enjoy NMS' early game, without this additional vexation.

Was just skimming the community and saw the recent Atlas Scepter post and it had me thinking;

I don't know much about multitools beyond there's several categories, put things I like most in the supercharge slots, and higher numbers in relevant stats are better... in other words the very basics.

My multi is primarily a weapon platform then a scanner and mining tool. So, what category of tool should I be looking for and what should I know about them? I do like the Runic Lens on the Atlas Scepter and noticed the Atlantid mutlis have it as well... could I move that onto a different mutli if/when I replace it?

So, I've managed to find an OK location for a base, not sure if I'll actually build it out yet, and rebuilt my freighter base but in the process I've put down a BeatByte Device, found it had ... something on it from the last time I was playing and realized I still don't know anything about music.

It'd be nice to have something playing in my freighter rather than just the ambient sounds from some of the things I've put in it but I remember how well trying to do it by stabbing about in the dark went last time. I'd rather not. So, anyone else not musically inclined? What do you do with the Beatbyte?

Just booted up the game again after a significant time away and figured I'd try doing something new; building a more robust base rather than something that's just practical.

Thing is I'm used to searching only on the basis of practicality. So, how do you find nice locations to build something aesthetically pleasing rather than just fit for purpose?

Hello everyone,

Finally managed to get a modded world stable enough to have a few large machines running and enjoy their use, including an autonomous concrete factory. With that I've built some walls and then realized I don't have any real experience with modern architecture... so I've got a giant white brick surrounding my machines.

Honestly, I'm not used to building on this scale either so I'm not sure how to make this look nice on multiple fronts. One thing I do know though; I don't like glass curtain-walls so I'd rather not do that for this building in spite of it certainly being big enough.

Any ideas?

Hello everyone,

My friends and I would like to play a modded world together now that we've found 'The Essentials' mod which allows us to circumvent our previous issues with multiplayer. However we've had some issues with finding good modpacks. None of us are experts so we've just been trying ones we've found.

We've mostly tried 'Create on a Potato PC Ultimate' and 'Create: Arcane Engineering'. Create on a Potato PC was/is great but we have a minor crashing issue. Arcane Engineering integrates the mod so much it makes trying to primarily work with one frustrating. My friends have also tried Create Chronicals and found it to just be altogether too much.

What we're looking for is a pack with Create (addons desired but not needed) and an in-depth magic mod like Botania or Ars Magica.

Any suggestions?

Besides Viral Damage and status chance, obviously. I've been slowly wringing all the MR out of my favorite primer, my Kuva Nukor, and I've gotten to the point where I'm not sure if my mod selections are quite worth the slot... and I've got plenty of capacity to work with.

This is my current build. To me the point is that it applies max stacks of Viral ASAP, as an added bonus it's Kuva element is Radiation which prevents buffing enemies from doing much of anything. As is unless I'm on SP the Nukor can and will kill most enemies quite efficiently.

So, what do you do with a Viral Primer once it primes Viral with all the gusto is can?

Edit: Taking all the suggestions here's what I've got:

This is looking pretty awesome now.

Just finished building the Hespar and slapped a build from Overframe on it... I didn't use to have a favorite melee weapon beyond what looked nicest strapped to my hip. I didn't really use melee much. Hespar w Galeforce Down is now my favorite. Love the wide swings and quick forward advance letting me carve through hordes with minimal effort.

Might just have to put together a loadout using all my favorite things now since there's enough to fill all slots.
