The one time a Vy'keen offered me a multi-tool it was 20 slots but 15 of them were busted, so I was just like "ehhh no thanks." Out of curiosity, though, can you still use the multi-tool if it has busted slots? Also, the multi-tool blueprint vendor has a different multi-tool for sale on each station as well, just to the left of them. The hotspot for activating it is super-wonky though. limaCAT posted:Yes but I'd like to see a seven or eight slot multi tool so that I can upgrade before getting the profit boost tech. Eh I mean they cost 450 nanites which you'll make over the course of like two systems. Really it's just a matter of finding them, but you can do the "Join Random Game" trick usually.

It's not cheap to repair(usually chromatic ore/modules/etc), but it's a great way to get a decent multitool on the cheap if you don't mind the legwork.

Yeah, I took the free multitool, which was kind of a mistake since some of the repairs I have no clue how to fix. I think I’ll be setting up a base on one of the planets and building a teleport rather than trying to keep my fuel going. Anyone on Xbox want to party up and see how we do?

DaveKap posted:Funny enough, getting new stuff (ships/guns) this way as an "alternate progression route" puts it closer in line with normal RPG mechanics. Technically, as you repair each broken slot, you're practically doing an incremental upgrade to your equipment. It's... almost ingenious. Absolutely. I picked up a 20 slot ship that's going to be a great mid-game acquisition. It'll take me quite a while to repair but it'll eventually pay off.

Inspector Gesicht posted:They need to change how sentinel ship encounters work. If you fight them, they keep coming. If you try to flee, your pulse is disabled. You might as well reload. Its like the Dark Souls II Morton's fork where neither option works and the enemy has unlimited aggro. ok I came here to ask a question about this because I'm practically in a soft lock with these fuckers. Pulse drive is disabled, can't out run them, killing them only causes them to spawn more. Is my only option to literally die or reload? God that is so loving dumb and this whole chase began because i landed on a dead planet and with "Casual" sentinels and mined a single outcropping of hydrogen. I didn't want to deal with them so I just left, but my wanted level persisted in space and I've been hosed every since so PSA: do not leave planets with a wanted level or else you'll be stuck in an endless loop until you die. hope you're not in ironman!

How are you supposed to get underground artifacts or whatever they're called? I see the icon, I get a bit above it and dig down then just before I'd reach it the icon disappears and there's nothing there. Even if I dig out a big area around where it should be. I buried tech things appear and so do cargo crates. Not sure what gives...

I'd like to get a better ship but even with an S-class analysis visor upgrade it still takes ages to get a million spacebucks and the only ships that interest me tend to be in the 15 million spacebuck range. Are you using the Upgrade Modules? Even a C class scanner module randomly gives x10-x15 money on plants or animals (it's randomish). You should be able to get up to like 500k per animal that way

Started over, and the main quest seems to be in a loop of “fuel your hyperdrive”. Do I need to make 5 warp cores before it advances? Edit: it was because I had swapped to another ship I found, which had a broken “green” hyperdrive in it in addition to the one I built.

The way the game window acts is pissing me the gently caress off. There's no option to run on the third or fourth monitor, using WIN+shift+left makes the screen the same size proportionally as the other screens, so running at 1080p coming from 1440p monitors to a 1080p tv, it makes like a 720p sized window with half of the game out of frame. in borderless windowed, it puts the entire thing off-frame to the top so i only see the bottom half of the game. I don't understand how this is still a problem in two thousand loving eighteen.

DaveKap posted:Apparently those modules stack, too (up to three according to the in-game guide,) so if you can get multiple S-class scanner modules, your $$$ should flow like a river. Yeah. There is a cap on how many modules can be installed at a time, though. And I'll reiterate, if you need Chromatic Metal and Tech Modules and like me you have thousands of Nanites, just buy random Upgrade Modules and Dismantle them, you get 75 Metal and 1 Tech Module per. Be warned though that you can't do this forever in the same station, the vendors will run out. Now that I think about it that would be a decent way to convert Nanites to Money since Tech Modules sell for over 50k and Upgrades only cost 70 Nanites. I keep warping hoping I'll find a chill planet again so I can actually focus on the base building. I found a Paradise Moon last night but it has Superheated Rainstorms. Man the storms make the game feel real and atmospheric as gently caress though, like flying around on a planet and not being able to see and poo poo drat this game is pure liquid cocaine now

Does the... I think it's the Phase Beam, the ship upgrade that says it helps with mining, does that actually have any benefits over blasting asteroids with your photon cannon? Like more metal returned or anything? Otherwise I'm not really seeing the use, it just overheats instantly.

So it's probably faster?

Earlier today steam downloaded some gigabytes of data in no man's sky's name. I proceeded to play other things. Now I go to play no man's sky as a break from those things. I am presented with a featureless dull gray steam window stating that no man's sky is performing first time setup. Installing Microsoft VC Resist Package (step 1 of 2) it says... The loading circle plays infinitely ... what do?

I feel like I'm missing something real stupid here... How do you delete a base? I can't pick up a base computer and going into the "delete" mode doesn't let me pick it up either. However, I'm reading people trying to solve the "base building mission is on my freighter" bug that I have now hit and people are talking about deleting their bases but outside of removing base structures, I don't see an actual way to remove a base computer. This also led to my main base now having 2 computers in front of it and one of them doesn't even work.

Interact with the base computer and select delete base. You might need to pick up everything else first because that’s what I did and it worked for me.
