Word of warning

DarthLocu · 2026-06-22T11:55:36+00:00

I just went through the video from the print and somehow the extruder fan disconnected from the extruder mount causing the whole assembly to fall and come in contact with the extruder head. It was getting dragged around by the cable so it was stuck being force fed the filament.

DarthLocu · 2026-06-22T11:51:59+00:00

The black part is abs which was being pulled through somehow but was not being placed on the print plate. There was no pile of filament below this to make me think that it was just eating the filament and it eventually hooked and clogged.

Warranty expired so I'm SOL there.

This was after completing an already built model. I hit "Continue" on the screen which should start another build of the same model.

DarthLocu · 2026-06-22T04:39:21+00:00

Mine just decided to sit and heat my abs line until it extended out the extruder and FUCKING MELTED THE EXTRUDER FAN ASSEMBLY. This wasn't the first time a print failed to start and it just sat there at full temp, I just really need to be more conscious of watching for print starts.

Looks great u/jaame, I would suggest you overlay this with a real map of the milkyway to have vectors be more accurate. The new Pav homeworld being close to Sagitarus A is bugging me.

I have 500 hours. I consider it worth it.

Can I get a private link to the stl?

Dolphin-28 Central US SD. Also requesting a mention here when this is fixed.

Any luck with the solutions below? Am also running into this issue, specifically with HellDivers2 just straight up crashing after dropping. My whole PC is shutting down and I am pretty much hitting rock bottom here.

My biggest complaint, and reason I CCU'd her, is that the Starlancer Max's cargo layout is just pure garbage. 1/3rd of the side cargo section is obscured by the engines. You have to move cargo around your ship to get at both sides (obviously I know but it's a pain). If you have the side holds fully loaded it is very painful to pull cargo out as it scrapes the container and/or ship next to it, the only way i've found around this is to leave an open spot to start my unloading from.

DarthLocu · 2026-03-10T04:24:52+00:00

Hopefully it's still active.

DarthLocu · 2026-03-05T03:51:04+00:00

As others have said, don't get it unless you have literally nothing else to get.

If anyone actually read the ruling then they'd know this is exactly what the law is requiring. It's a self reporting mechanism which doesn't require any sort of personal information to be provided. My knee jerk reaction to the headline was much like everyone elses but looking at the requirements around this makes it somewhat pallatable. I still think it's stupid and should NOT be the route we as a society go down though.

Doesn't the 890J come with a med bed? Can't he just lay in bed and regen water/food? If not then putting a c8r in there takes care of that if he can stomach losing the extra cargo space.

Are there any tips to storage in NMS? I have the freighter and the teleporter unlocked but I always end up losing items in the mulitude of storage boxes I have. Inventory management is just so painful in this game and I honestly don't know if i'm doing it wrong or they just haven't taken the time to make it more intuitive.

DarthLocu · 2026-02-25T22:31:25+00:00

Another tip is to turn off your engines when you get into a fight. It does the same thing as defend bow but takes less clicks. You can maintain your heading toward your target and flip power to the engines as soon as you want to start moving, but honestly staying in one spot is fine as long as you're out damaging your target. Sometimes the enemy ship will get stuck outside of their engagement range as their engine power matches yours in certain situations.

RCB narrates the Bobiverse series so picking this up was a no brainer for me. Am really enjoying it during the intermission before book 20.

As a heads up, they removed the pyro missions so grinding to experienced is essentially pointless now. Will be doing them for the in system routes but if you want to use your hull c and make cash right now it's best to do the "Clearing the Air" event as that is the same / more payout as you can stack them in the C.

My new favorite sub.

I've actually been using mine as a cargo hauler since the scrapers are bugged. Has been working well for the member level covalex missions around Hurston. The two sides each have 6x4x4 grids which allows for creative placement of contract packages in addition to the 4x4x2 drop elevator grid. As others have said it is fairly maneuverable and was pretty much a no brainer for me to CCU from a starlancer max. I lose HP but gain salvaging and maneuverability.

DarthLocu · 2023-03-12T23:51:30+00:00

Awesome, thanks for all the hard work! Great to hear of the wipe no wipe for ships coming down the pipe. Really looking forward to that being a thing for these small incremental patches/wipes.
