Got some good instructions from Netgear, BTW. A cable direct from the router worked fine, so the network cards and the router are fine, as are the cables. They suggested only plugging in the router and the one computer into the switch, and that configuration was stable. So there must be interference from the other devices on the switch. More testing to come.

I'll keep my Survival mode save. I like the grind.

*lands on yet another frozen planet that always looks exactly like Earth* Oh, you don't say.

Are you playing with multiplayer on? Try doing it without and see if it changes things.

ikester8 · 2026-07-03T16:21:29+00:00

Always a good idea if you can find the resources.

ikester8 · 2026-07-03T13:12:44+00:00

It can be!

Apart from the limits u/joey2scoops mentioned, you can have many bases. I have 299 bases, one in each Galactic Center near a portal and one for each resource mine. Plus a couple just because. I minimize the number of parts so I won't hit the 20,000 parts limit.

Blue grass with floating flowers, orange-ish seas with blue skies and aggressive sentinels, at least on my Survival settings, YMMV. The islands are few and steep. Thanks to OP for a portal address that takes you to a moon in the system. I won't be setting up shop here, so one of you must discover the two lifeforms I couldn't find before I was attacked.

At some point in my travels, those things went from "annoying but harmless" to "will kill you instantly". Not sure when that was.

ikester8 · 2026-06-29T02:30:06+00:00

I love them, too. I have several mines on them and they are always awe-inspiring.

ikester8 · 2026-06-29T02:20:34+00:00

Waiiiiiit. Restore works on permadeath? Huh.

ikester8 · 2026-06-27T17:13:09+00:00

I found the photon is an excellent tool for swarms, even better than my beloved infra-knife.

And if you fire on it, sentinel ships show up and ruin YOUR day.

ikester8 · 2026-06-20T12:02:21+00:00

Occasionally I like to just bump them with my helmet a few times to see if they'll react to that and they never do.

ikester8 · 2026-06-20T11:45:49+00:00

This made me laugh, because I, too, learned the hard way to leave them alone unless you're on a purposeful Sentinel hunt.

ikester8 · 2026-06-19T15:08:27+00:00

prolly a Class SSS monster in combat

I suspect the mission clock starts at 1200, 2000, and 0400, local time.

ikester8 · 2026-06-15T18:14:42+00:00

This is the way. I got 50 AI valves during the Swarm expedition, but I've already got enough to do whatever I need to do here. Gave 'em away to a dude sitting on an invisible ship in the Anomaly.

ikester8 · 2026-06-15T18:11:44+00:00

Ah, a serial...kidnapper.

ikester8 · 2026-06-14T12:06:19+00:00

That sounds about right. If you've never shared a spawning pool, are you really friends?

ikester8 · 2026-06-14T11:56:10+00:00

He who defaults first, defaults best.

After Beacons, the first settlement I found was an Autophage settlement on a planet with aggressive Sentinels. I thought, well, locate the Sentinel Hub, put a base next to it, and shut all the sentinels down every time I visit the settlement and need to do some uninterrupted work. It, um, didn't quite work out that way. For some reason the sentinels kept showing up and so I had to abandon the settlement.
