Holy hell new space station I just visited is cool as poo poo. One side has multiple levels, everything has been moved but it is buggy as hell. With some of the vendors, it won't let me purchase anything. New ship builder will be awesome but it looks like everything needs to be cleaned up a bit. On screen selections are "ui_ship_tab_scientific" instead of whatever it is meant to be.

E: this is way late but just realized it's my first ever snipe, so :synpa:

The UI labels are super messed up, all the upgrades on a space station cost anywhere from minus 500 to 20,000 nanites (it says they’re “discounted”) and can't be bought so there are some bugs as expected. Even the in-game patch notes have labeling issues. :haw:

There's a ship builder that lets you create the four basic types of ships but no other customization from what I can see. So no customization for exotics then? Could be I just haven't found it yet.

E: Okay so yeah you scrap ships and get to pick a part (left/right wing, cockpit) that goes in your inventory which you can then use to build a new ship. Exotics, solar ships and expedition ships can’t be scrapped for parts, only units. :(

Also the explorer's guild envoy now doesn't just throw a random reward at you but has a shop inventory with a bunch of cool free stuff, like warp hypercores, launch fuel and upgrades up to S-class.

So yeah, if you see a wing you like, you’ll need to find another of the same type if you want a symmetrical ship. Or a ship at all. I guess it’s a good thing that systems have only a specific number of ships, but parts are consumables.

Hahaha with the discount bug for tech upgrade vendors, selling them gives you an insane amount of nanites. Sitting pretty on 4,29 billion right now. I didn't even notice until after I'd sold the couple I'd gotten from the envoy.

Haven't played NMS in ages after who knows how many 100's of hours.

How much variation is there now when it comes to space station interiors? That was the one thing I always disliked but it sounds like this is now 'solved' with procgen? Or is it still just a number of prefabs?

Aww man, this made me excited but turns out the bug doesn't happen on PS5, all my tech upgrade prices are completely normal. No big nanite boost for me, it seems.

When editing your Freighter Base loadout, is there a way to add like a vertical column or vertical hatch? Or is everything confined to a flat grid layout?

There are both ladders and stairways, but you might have to unlock them, I don't remember.

PS5 user here. It worked for me. You have to SELL the vendor one of your tech mods. Then you get a ridiculously high number of nanites.

Tried this, 3-4 times. Each time, I just got the completely normal amount of nanites back.

Edit: In fact, because I've been buying and then selling tech mods multiple times, I'm steadily losing nanites. :shepface:

I went to 3 stations, picking one each of the Gek, Korvax and Vykeen. They were all noticeably different from one another. Not sure if they did anything with the Anomoly.

I'm pretty sure this is reputation related; as in if you have fully done every race they give you discounts at space stations for tech. I have everything maxed out so it gave me a discount but because of this bug the discount brought the price down to a negative to an absurd degree so selling tech upgrades to them refunded a bananas amount of nanites.

This was on PS5 as well, by the way.

I guess I shouldn't complain! After all, that other weird glitch that cost people thousands of items from their refineries also never happened to me. I'll just chalk this up to karma payment for all the bad glitches I never had to suffer through. :v:

I want to say the 3D grid for the freighter base is 20x, 20y, 15z? ish? So conceptually "yes things can go upwards" and some people before this update "spoofed" large internal areas by making them outside

Honestly I'm a bit bummed out since I didn't mind doing the work earning nanites but I guess now I'll never have to worry about it. Now instead of setting up mold farms I'll have to focus fully on scavenging the parts to build the goofiest explorer ship I can.

I think you can still save yourself if you didn't create a new manual save. If you reload from before the point where you exploited the glitch, everything should return to normal.

It's far too late now, I quit the game once before I noticed the glitch happened and loaded in twice since so I'll have to live with it. Fortunately there's plenty to do anyway.

I've started buying random ships and trashing them for bits, in between repairing crashed ones for the same reason. Interestingly, the ship parts are inventory items, meaning you could give them to other people.

They patched out the PS5 UI bug quickly enough, wow.

I still can't buy ship reactors because of the rep discount bug, I now have a 172% discount at tech vendors and it claims I can't afford to buy them because of insufficient nanites, which I have over 4 billion of. :shepspends:

I did test it once out by reloading and re-harvesting the same patch with the larget and smallest, but this was years ago, all i remember is it was a very significant difference. You get a tiny amount from using the largest one.

The thing I'm wondering about currently is how to get rid of these 4 billion nanites i got from the bugged station merchant.
