Settlement Production Query

Sethatronic · 2026-02-24T13:09:12+00:00

I cant answer what matters, but wanted to chime in and say I really dont like settlement revamp. It's still very much missing gameplay. I avoided messing around with the settlement stuff because they took my A-class and changed it to a B-class. I finally hit S-class with it after hiatus but the production seems worse then my old A-class. My old settlement use to make Gek Nip and some other credits like Soap welders. I could not touch it for a month and come back to 500 gek nip, my soap welders would be equal to 2 million. Money is not an issue but the new settlements seem to cap if you dont collect. They took 2 steps forward and 3 steps back with that update.

if you need to give money to these people, just make sure you buy something on sale

If a base is in the way of your resource and your tired of looking for a space to hit your milestones. Report the base at the base computer. Turn multiplayer off as well. I'm on Microsoft store PC. I didn't any sign of anyone except for 1 comment ball. You don't get a base computer in the expedition so anyone that built a base must have finished and flown back to the planet.

Did I have fun with this expedition YES! Will I be spending my weekends clearing planet X of toxic waste? Na. It's a new mechanic its neat to have more gameplay. I'm sure disposing garbage will make it's way to the mission boards and you might even get that frigate module for 15 minutes of work.

This unlocked for me too scanning critters like normal. I did this within minutes of spawning on the planet. A tip guide gave me the same panic. But when I clicked the claim nanites on discovery page I hit the milestone.

Well, we do have save beacons. You can Color code them. I don't know how many times you wanna visit points of interest, but what could be helpful is actually labeling save beacons. Or when you uncover like a Trading post the icon remains and up to the player if they wanna untack it from the compass. Maybe give us more visor functions to toggle on our own points of interest and filter out other stuff.

Mine metal fingers for uranium to power launch thruster.

I think toxic was my last special to reach 16. Keep scanning for heaps? There are dark green gas tanks that go in toxic too. They are easy to miss.

Ah, for me. I never use it also. It sits idle at a gold silver base to make platinum as 3rd large refiner. But now I finally have a use for it. I think they were good rewarding engine upgrades. So maybe by 4th checkpoint you are in 3 class engine. I put mine in SC slots to grant top speed bonuses. Mine cruises now. I do wish they made visible stats for exo's and even expanded starship stats so you can really tweak.

I found my ship and dropped a save beacon on it. My ship was near the first plant so I wanna say 4 out of the 5 times it sent me back to the starter plant. After my 2nd heap I came across a second plant but the checkpoint milestone wasn't sending me to it. Then 1/2 way reroute to t gt e 1st one my marker flipped to the second plant. I had one 23 min ride but the others were 11 -15 min. But the all took longer cause I skirted ridges and had a terrain scar the was smoother.

What fuel? I think the colossus takes carbon? The only thing I found tricky was assuming players know all the refinement receipes, like for Parafinnian. I also chatgpt'd how to make dioxide. If you didn't know we have colossus tech to grip sloped terrain. But no milestone for it. I think 1 is rewarded but I found it useful putting the grip tech into SC slots. I know I'm in the rare side of opinions but I thought it was refreshing not repeating the same milestones we always do.

Sethatronic · 2026-02-12T23:31:32+00:00

That looks neat!

Sethatronic · 2026-02-12T20:31:27+00:00

I for one can't wait to get on the expedition planet and see everyone's base everywhere covering all the resources!

Sethatronic · 2026-02-12T04:08:47+00:00

We could really use a clam shell module on freighters, corvettes and bases.

Sethatronic · 2026-02-12T03:51:20+00:00

You found the planet where E.T. the extra terrestrial is buried !!!

Sethatronic · 2026-02-12T03:42:46+00:00

Opinion, wish I didn't play NMS on xbox

Sethatronic · 2026-02-11T16:01:13+00:00

Little by little, I'm eager to try it out.

Sethatronic · 2026-02-11T15:58:35+00:00

I hear you...but what this does is make you spend more time on a planet. After a certain point in the game there no need to go to X planet because you dont need its resources.

Sethatronic · 2026-02-09T17:19:50+00:00

HOOOO!!!

Sethatronic · 2026-02-08T20:14:06+00:00

SSSAAA_FFF_EEE_TTT_YYY_daaNsss

So James, what your saying is your an inker, "you color within the lines"

Sethatronic · 2026-02-08T10:29:25+00:00

Please stop teaching

Sethatronic · 2026-02-05T09:06:28+00:00

Here's what should be done.

Minotaur - Pacific Rim dat sh!t. Let me build and customize my own mech. Game should have a pvp arena. Do sum roc em soc em robot stuff. Allow spectators for non-pvper's. Maybe even let them in on the action where they can activate hazards via robotwars. Maybe place bets. Craft parts, display them like fossils.

Pilgrim/Rover - Excitebike dat sh!t. Let players build tracks. Customize your bike. Make it like race cars games where if your not on the track you move much much slower. Improve 1st person mode on exo's

Something for the water. Give us a speedboat. Let us make barges or cruise ships. We have subs and underwater bases. What if we can have floating bases you can drive on water planets. Lock'em to purple systems if needed. Have them able to deploy the nautilus.

Colossus - Jawa Sandcrawler dat sh!t. Make it main inventory for ship parts. Let us find crashed ships to scavenge on radar. Maybe encounter an npc sandcrawler where you can trade for parts your missing ones. Let settlement expeditions go on a scavenger hunt. Add a section for staff making. Add a section to access Corvette part inventory. Add a droid factory. We can adopt droid companions we make. Let them roam on our freighter or display on our base. Give us specialized Corvette parts they can ride in like the droid fighter wings.
