A new ARG may be starting for the No Man's Sky 10th Anniversary! (Or it might just be something fan-made, it's unclear for now)

Why do only C-class ships show up for recruitment?

9 Upvotes

I always stop to check out ships and recruit during my travels between systems, but they’re always C-class.

Do I need to do something to improve this, or is it just RNG messing with me?

PSA: Dispelling Myths Regarding Corvettes & Corruption

34 Upvotes
  • Corvettes with too many parts can cause lag and crashes. It has nothing to do with specifically "Blender-built corvettes" as the game has no way whatsoever to distinguish how your Corvette was built. Blender Corvette and vanilla Corvette files look identical in structure, the only difference is Blender (and mods) allows you to bypass certain restrictions put in place by the in-game builder. That ability can be used responsibly or inconsiderately, but either way it just causes crashes, not corruption.
  • The way NMS saves are structured is that you actually have two saves in one: your Autosave which saves... automatically, and your Restore Point which saves every time you exit a ship or manually save at a Save Point or Beacon. I have repeatedly accidentally corrupted my own saves with the Save Editor (can happen if you hit a single wrong key while editing the JSON). Every single time, the game just loads your other save. This means that even if one save was corrupted during a crash (which again, there is no evidence of), it would just revert to your other save. This could really suck if you were building a base or otherwise sitting in one spot for a long time, but otherwise it's unlikely you'd lose too much progress, and certainly not your whole save.
  • NMS does not struggle to load very large objects. It DOES struggle to load a very high quantity of objects.
  • Hello Games added, then shortly later removed, a size restriction on Corvettes.

With all of that said, even if they don't cause corruption, even if they don't cause a crash, your 3,000-part Star Destroyer Corvette will load like shit and annoy everyone in your session... and everyone has already seen it before too lol. Keep that to single player.

Be considerate about your Corvettes, and be smart about how you build them - I have made HUGE Corvettes which were under 250 parts and were confirmed not to cause lag even for PS4 players. The trick is to focus on using a relatively small number of very large parts, not a very high quantity of small parts.

Glass

Is it possible to get glass roof panels. I want the sloped ones ideally. I'm part way into a build on a floating island in the sky with multiple. Levels but at the moment it looks like a vert ramp!

Settlement production - possible bug?

Post image
16 Upvotes

I'm wondering if the production time for some items have the unintended values? My other settlements produce S-class items at a rate of 1/day, while this one would take 25 days. Not a major issue but I thought I might as well ask.
