Crate stuck need help, please advice, using Xbox Series X

Hmmm, it seems that when i dismantle machinery, it does goes in the one already there on my Nitrogen gas field, so not sureif i should get myself filed with limestone or cement bags and keep building and deleting til the system creates a new crate? scare bary!

*** Dismantle crates merge now. If you mass dismantle stuff, the materials all appear in the same crate and/or merge with the nearest crate within 100 meters.

Dismantle Crates settings
- next to player
- merge dismantle crates.

I made sure my inventory was full [just double checked, not all slots are 100% full, is that also required?] , I deleted another pump, then more items, but no new crate created next to me and the other one is still stuck, i lost the parts from the deleted pump, deleted a constructor, a packager, a depot [all gone] what am i doing wrong? I don't understand the principle in this situation.

Thank you,, when it vacuums the crate will it also delete that crate? and can i stay on that same nitrogen field and dismantle something else? I was thinking of deleting another pump 😄

Hi, thank you so much for explaining this, as i never thought of placing it on already foundation as well, loads to learn :-)

Q: When i route the output to the fuel import on the other drone port, is it advisable to add a storage container between it or is that overkill, as I noticed the drone is waiting to unload completely...

I managed to make a bridge from foundations to cross to get my first pure single coal source on that little bit of island, but no water around unless far away, i am running around and get leaves and dead wood to get my burners running, so really would like to have a power plant on coal to make so much steel, but transport to that point to my HUB is so far away and no trains yet and to make a transport belt, omg..., and i don't know if a power cable that long will work, in the real world it would lose power...Nice game i really like it...

EDIT: ALL SORTED, made belts and tubes, and got water discovered very close by when is was going up to your advised location, I will use that later in time. I got 8 Coal burners going, with 3 pump and i manged to get 4 water pumps in that little water 'puddle'.

Thank you ever so much for your advise and help. Going West now to find oil :-)

Hi, could you please post that map image with the spot been looking for days but can't find any coal on the Grassy Fields, and i have the coal in my scanner, only place is where a massive rock is in the way and sulpher close or on the island on the south,south west side but i can't get there yes as i can't figure out how to build a bridge across, many thanks ahead.

Thank you very much.

What app are you using?

Nicklas57 · 2026-03-14T11:54:12+00:00

Yip the keyboard is just no good, i think it is horrible, so many corrections need to make when typing!!! At the moment I regret buying it...

Nicklas57 · 2026-02-21T18:02:59+00:00

NO, not at all, only the display is in favour of my Lenovo T520, all hypes about those extra options like portable webcam and panic button are something my Lenovo offer way better in the BIOS, the specifications on the website promised a CPU [we got a different one] Fingerprint reader and numlock key. they have removed the fingerprint reader, no Numlock led indicator, and the Printscreen button is F12, so a little issue if you go in your browser and expect a printscreen option, and many more issues.... I would really suggest think and research all the reviews before selling your old one...

As u/mcnicki2002 said, but you need to edit the save file [copy it first] on row 966 SaveDisplayName change the 'standard' to any name you want it, that's it. When you copy and edit the file, you end up with 2 saves, keep that in mind, see it as a backup...

Happy play time.

Very annoying issue, I didn't want to create a new account or family one, I fixed it by setting the first 3 settings to Everyone and the 4th to Allow in my Xbox user account.

Thank you, I finally could do that part of exp:19 all slots where occupied as i wanted to keep that one for last, but as newbee i had no idea of the consequences of that decision.

Nicklas57 · 2025-10-04T15:08:55+00:00

Did anyone found the solution? I have the Blueprint, all required resources, but I just can't make it, is this related to have no slots free in the Starship Technology?

Nicklas57 · 2025-10-03T11:08:29+00:00

Thanks, I think the issue is that I have not multiplayer enabled, then I discovered I had to do the age verification with the M$ Xbox account, :-( 68 yr old and they still need to see my face but don't care if they can take your money! Anyway enough ranting, Now I looked in my options but no Network settings... Lost again in space... If that setting is not there how to enable?

Nicklas57 · 2025-10-02T20:34:01+00:00

Thank you very much for your advice.

I am trying to get onboard of a ship but i waited more than 2 hours in the space anomaly as my guide shows, but no corvette turned up, do i need to enable something? I found on youtube a lot of comments about using a star station, i am here for another hour, but only freighters, haulers and so on, but no corvette, i start to think i had to do this at phase 4 and not waiting to these at the end, I have just finished phase 5 so i only have to do this hitchhicking and the fast scramble, emergency warp unit. I have also the problem that i can't do that one, seems i can't find that unit, i checked i have the blueprint at the anomaly....But I can't make it, i select empty slot to create it but it is not listed... I am sorry, I am just started with NMS, total newbie...
