How does the multiplayer work in next? If I connect to a friend's session, play for a while, then later play on my own, is it the same character or is everything stored on the friend's instance?

My first planet was a -60c ball of ice, the second was a +60c furnace. About 1k sodium an hour to stay alive. Bountiful world next door tho, which was nice

Does everyone on a mp session need the same mods? like if I install that UI cleanup mod am I going to have to convince all my friends that scanlines are evil too?

Verviticus posted:won't this teleport you all over the universe or do you go back to where you started when you pop open SP Your single player goes back to your universe. As for an explanation, every station you visit allows you to buy one suit upgrade. Joining a random game dumps you in space just outside a new random station. Dock, buy your slot, maybe barter with all the locals for language help, save and quit to mode select, repeat.

Broken Cog posted:Those "Metallic Fingers" or whatever they're called is the only good source for Uranium I've found in the game so far. Apparently you're supposed to find it on radioactive planets, but all I can find there is that a few minerals or flora has it as a secondary resource. The low atmosphere/barren type worlds have metal fingers too. Have 2k gold and 4k uranium in the freighter. Never making launch fuel again

Anyone had an issue with all freighter expeditions being grayed out, and if so do you know how to fix it? I can't run missions at all currently

Powershift posted:get like 10-20 systems in your teleporter by joining random games online and visiting those stations, then go station to station picking up easy missions that reward you with nanites and do them all at once. Stuff like "scan x rocks" or "kill x animals" are all done simultaneously. if you have 10 missions each telling you to kill 5 things, killing 5 total completes all the missions. Yeah, that's what my brother did to get his 15 pages of stacking missions. Ended up rank 7+ in each guild afterwards too

Is upgrading a freighter just like upgrading a normal ship? Move cargo, lose mods, enjoy new ship? I assume I'll need to rebuild my command centers, but I haven't built anything else I'd need to worry about

victrix posted:Just did that, it worked, loaded back into my game by my base and all three of my base specialists were gone from their terminals and my next base mission step is pointing me to a system a few hundred light years away You should be able to hold the middle button on the quest and it'll restart it locally Oasx posted:I just got this game recently and i'm in my third star system so it is still early days. Is there anything like the visor scanner for your ship? It feels like you pretty much have to land all the time to figure out anything of interest around. Maps are LosTech. There are beacons you can build after you do the base building questline a bit, which presumably will persistently mark something. As for scanning in space, not that I'm aware of. Honestly I wish all trade posts were flagged when you scanned a planet, even if it had a reputation gate, because what sort of trade post hides?

IcePhoenix posted:So this is probably a dumb question but in multiplayer can I or my friends use each other's teleporters to go to all our bases or can we only go use our own to go to our own Your bases probably won't exist in a MP game unless you're the host, and I've heard that unless you're the host your base will go away after you leave the MP session. Pretty sure you can teleport anywhere tho

Tequila posted:Can you put npc terminals and a portal terminus on your freighter? There's a very limited list of things you can build on your freighter. With what I have unlocked, that list of limited things is: storage crate (1) base reclamation terminal (or whatever it is called that lets you recover old base materials) hallways and freighter rooms crops I haven't checked since I got the large reactor blueprint to see if that's an option. Teleporter certainly is not, that's the first thing I tried.

Stare-Out posted:By the way, you can prevent your mining laser from overheating if you stop using it right as the bar is about to reach the end and immediately firing it back up. Old tip but still in the game and maybe someone doesn't know about it. Slap 3 S-tier mining upgrades in there and you can hold down that button for about a minute straight. One cycling metal fingers for about 5% of mining power now

xilni posted:Always warp with your freighter basically, it’s awesome as long as you’re not falling through the world, even then be sure to get cool photos for us. Freighters have a very short jump range. Get some hyperdrive upgrades on a ship, economy and conflict scanners, and have the luxury of warping 600+ ly searching for the perfect system. Only end up using like 10% warp fuel per jump with good modules and you can just summon the freighter to you when you find a home.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:So fun MP stuff: if you build a base underground/in a mountain and someone joins your session your friend joining triggers a map regeneration so it buries you base. Burrowing out a base sounds like a bad idea in general unless you plan on building it and ever doing anything in game ever again, I don't know that network players are really the issue here
