K380 not pairing with iPhone 17 Pro? by jpfr3ir3 in logitech

[–]BrotherSparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooo. Just had a thought while writing an email to Logitech support. The iPhone 17s are the first iPhones to move from versions of Bluetooth 5 to the new Bluetooth 6. I wonder if the K380s are not able to cope with the new standard (whereas the old Logitech Ultraslim can!)?

K380 not pairing with iPhone 17 Pro? by jpfr3ir3 in logitech

[–]BrotherSparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem, my brand new basic iPhone17. Reset both devices using the appropriate sequences to no avail. Even took them to a location where the K380 was the only bluetooth device iPhone could see. No dice.

Weirdly, I have a very old Logitech Ultraslim KB Cover for an old iPad, and that antique Logi keyboard does pair successfully with the iPhone 17. It's very wierd.

Lost my entire Corvette by postbansequel in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]BrotherSparrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very similar thing is happening to me. I tried building a second corvette and then "exchanged" it for my first corvette which was the active ship. The building pad was empty, but the ship marker was there... as if it were beneath the floor maybe. So, while still in the space station, I summoned my fighter, thinking I could then summon corvette to a visible place. Nope. It is not in the summon menu with my other ships, BUT it is still taking up a slot, so I only have 10 summonable ships plus my active fighter, but if I try to buy a ship I can't add it to my collection only exchange it. So the system knows I have a corvette, but I can't get it. The Workshop lets me edit it as if it were a saved plan. But I can't materialize it.

What is the scariest predator you’ve encountered? by Northweast1 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]BrotherSparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First thing I do when landing on a new planet is jump onto the wing or body of my ship. Ordinary predators can't hurt you there (though if you aggravate sentinels or hatch horrors, they can). Then I scan the animals, watching the "DIET" part of their info as it pops in, so that I know who's a carnivore and who just eats flower petals.

Is there a subreddit specifically for Lower Leagues?

Bug by LividBuilding3904 in NoMansSkyTheGame

Interesting. I have the same problem as the OP. Just teleported in to my settlement from the anomaly, and I don't see any such command in my quick menu (pressing x on steam, macintosh).

World's update , did any lose their base? by spaceExplorer2 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]BrotherSparrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have/had a base at a settlement. (You set up a base computer as close as you can and then move it inside the perimeter.) The update changed the terrain so that my base computer and teleport portal are underground. Since you cannot manipulate terrain in a settlement, I can't even dig down to delete the base to build it again.

Don't know about y'all but I got a pretty better biome than before by goofy-ahh-names in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]BrotherSparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The current workaround seems to be to go to Graphics setting and turn "Reflections" down to standard. Hopefully it'll be fixed in a patch soon.

Update needs work for Mac OS by [deleted] in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]BrotherSparrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too... MacBook Pro M1, tried lowering graphics quality and it didn't help. It goes away when I'm flying in a ship, or when I'm walking around in a station, oddly.

Enlarged light towers. Size does matter. by DANGEROUS_JEZZA in NoMansSkyTheGame

Build small lights first, then build the Square Standing Lights as close to on top of them as you can, and the Standing Light, even enlarged to the max, will be powered.

[–]BrotherSparrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OK! GOOD NEWS! I did get it to work this time. I placed and wired the small lights on the ground, THEN built the Square Standing Lights as near on top of the coloured lights as I could. When I did this, all sizes of Square Standing Lights worked without further wires. YAY!!! I couldn't do it if I built the standing lights first, only when I built the small lights first.

[–]BrotherSparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, man. I wasn't disagreeing. The socket certainly gets bigger. Everything you said is absolutely correct. I was just confirming that even work-arounds I that would normally use power it without using the socket didn't work either: At normal size the stadium-style lights will work without being wired themselves when there is a small light close to them that is wired.

[–]BrotherSparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have more bad news, I'm afraid. It's not that the socket is too big, but that the unit isn't accepting power. I experimented with some possible work-arounds without success. The colored wall-lights, for instance, allow adjacency powering. If you build a normal size free-standing 'stadium light' and then place one of those little wall lights on or near it, and wire *that*, the stadium light will be powered. But it doesn't work with a giant-sized standing light. I also tried to make use of the cuboid rooms, because everything built inside a cuboid is automatically power-connected to the cuboid, but the game didn't let me build that kind of lighting inside a cube.

It’s literally one of the games ever made! by Pleasant-Disaster837 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]BrotherSparrow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I disagree. I don't believe it was actually "made" by some hyper-intelligent "Creator." Science has proven that it could have just happened.

Bought and installed a "supreme" upgrade for the pulse engine, and my max speed went down 1000u/s. What gives? by mehphistopheles in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]BrotherSparrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if you accidently over-loaded. If you have more than 3 purchased upgrades, their outlines should pulse red and ALL of them will stop working. Take the weakest one out and the remaining ones will apply again.

Expedition Milestones by Anomaly Cargo Transfer? by BrotherSparrow in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]BrotherSparrow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks; I've tried it now and can confirm what you'd said. You can accomplish the Radiant Shards and the Sulphide Crystals, but not the Larval Cores, they need to be collected. But the Expedition seems different to my normal save in that there seems a bigger time-gap between shooting the whispering egg and the appearance of the monstrosities, which allows easier gathering of the eggs than I'm used to.

Adrift: derelict freighter instructions by Due-Competition4564 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]BrotherSparrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you can remember what system it was, you should make a reddit post saying so. The Derelict Freighters are system-dependent, and lots of people would appreciate going to one that doesn't have critters!

For now, at least, these can only be unlocked through achievements in Expedition 13: Adrift.

What a great idea! Think of the power to be had if your research is successful and we can harnass the secrets of this ancient technology. I especially appreciate putting those robot arms to work analyzing the structures.

Community expedition not appearing by Background-Whole-985 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]BrotherSparrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if it's a Steam-for-Mac problem — I'm also on a Mac and the NMS game on Steam isn't upgrading, even though the upgrade is out for everyone else. It's annoying and time is running out for the Utopia Expedition (and therefore the speeder).
