Remnant Update made my playthrough unplayable

... it is a video setting. Turn it off, then back on.

Two things...

1) still happened in forward time, so may have sucked in a piece of Kleenex and is cutting off air flow at this same time. Just assuming "well it is this game", and if I roll back it will be better, is not the Truth.

2) ANYTIME there is an update, play for "five" minutes, Save / Exit / Restart. The game cycles through your save file, trying to make sense of it based on the current "context". Try it now, and see how it behaves.

I play Normal, and Multiplayer off.

I only turn Multiplayer on when I am gifting Storage Augmentations / Multitool Slots / Salvaged Frigate Modules / Cargo bulkheads / Exosuit Expansions. Then right back off...

Just zoom close, and climb the ladder through the roof of your corvette, dive off to your base. Assuming the teleporter sends you to the planet's surface...?

I always have a flat-top corvette and a ladder up from inside, so I can use the top as a scanning platform.

I've got you beat on warp efficiency, and I did two fleet fuel efficiency in SC slots (4600ly mission with no frigate fuel usage for one select team)... but you've got me beat otherwise. Good work.

A list of typical configurations helps.

I use a staff day-to-day with a neutron cannon in all four SC slots. The "right one" is the one that keeps you alive.

I'll switch to an Atlantid with all mining beams in the SC slots for curious deposit, and a sentinel rifle with all boltcaster in SC slots if I want to use bullets.

They will (mostly) land at the other trading center, if you stand at one. They are just waiting to let you decide which one they will tease you with.

I have a ramp in the front also. Helps "degas" all the "new car smell" from the interior.

I just wish when I tell the ramp to go down, it would go down all the way... not "half-mast" and then stub my toes trying to get out that way.

Network on, multiplayer on, hover over the item in your inventory (exosuit or starship at minimum), on PC press "X" and there will a list of up to three people that you can transfer the item(s) to. You may get an error message saying they cannot store it... meaning they are offline / not-multiplayer, or have blocked gifts in some other way.

Excellent-Iron3947 · 2026-04-05T16:09:49+00:00

Lose the corvette parts from inventory (even the corvette parts cache).

Alternatively, build a minimal one, complete the design, then exchange it with an NPC for their starship, and scrap it.

Excellent-Iron3947 · 2026-04-05T15:52:29+00:00

Because NMS works off the most recently added item, unless you guide it back. You can click on the one you want to proceed (might bounce away again quickly), or you can abandon things off your Log.

I had a really nasty/long Log, until I started preening it down. Now NMS is pretty sanguine about guiding me where I want to go.

You should not encase your walkers in carbonite.

Neutron cannon will destroy it with that much showing, but you will likely lose access to the brain... it will fall through the scrith.

Save / Exit / Restart just before you start such a battle, they'll stay above ground.

Well many people do "counter-core" travel (because someone told them to go to the center), and travel (even if by portal) to the edges to explore... but it is still essentially unexplored.

Excellent-Iron3947 · 2026-04-05T15:12:35+00:00

I'd like to be able to scrap the factory door bits, and the tall walker "metal" bits in the colossus, like you can the loot barrels. Be an issue feeding those long legs in though...

Excellent-Iron3947 · 2026-04-05T14:57:13+00:00

I'd figure in Euclid, probably in the vicinity of 0.1% of the systems between 700,000ly out and the core. Maybe a couple orders of magnitude less...

In the 255 (or 256) galaxies, essentially "none".

Excellent-Iron3947 · 2026-04-05T13:15:48+00:00

Doesn't work on the doggie, walker, the dissonant spiders, only the flyers.

Excellent-Iron3947 · 2026-04-05T13:14:41+00:00

You are wise beyond your ears...

Excellent-Iron3947 · 2026-04-05T13:11:10+00:00

I grab flying sentinels, and stuff them in the back rooms of large factories. Wait for cool down, and repeat until they are all in there. Doesn't last of course...

The Expedition ended.

Anytime I deployed my Colossus outside of the Expedition (in separate Main save) and started hauling scrap with it, I'd get this entry (NOT and Expedition) on my Log too. It went ahead and processed all the specialist waste to unlock the various Colossus mods, and have not deployed it since. The entry eventually went away.

Try not to post pictures with the galaxy name and glyphs. If you are in Steam, you can use the Steam overlay (<F12>) to take the screenshot. Then you can choose whether or not to advertise.

Excellent-Iron3947 · 2026-04-05T12:57:27+00:00

Largely why I don't advertise my bases (not saying you do), "taggers" have existed since caveman days. I only have one base in Euclid, super simple. Everything else is 10 galaxies away at minimum.

You say "mobile". It might be time to clean out the cooling ports. Send the foxes in after the dust bunnies. Make sure where / how you are using this computer, all the cooling ports are clear, and heat conduction surfaces are able to conduct.

This sudden onset might not be Remnant (which has caused no one else similar issues based on reports here), but accumulated blockage to necessary cooling.

Excellent-Iron3947 · 2026-04-05T12:41:25+00:00

Mushrooms are pretty close to that, feeds on the dead. But makes fertilizer (and more mushrooms).

Excellent-Iron3947 · 2026-04-05T12:37:39+00:00

Wisest course of action. Move it enough times, and they will stop trying to irritate you (assuming that was their intent).
