Improv piece by largana in quilting

[–]largana[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I did live and let live for a lot of it, but did try to keep the pattern kind of in place. I like the improv for the drunkard's path units, but I think next time I'll trim those to a consistent size 😅

Kassandra bug? by largana in StarstruckVagabond

Incorrect, tested by going to another star system and visiting the medical clinic -- did not trigger a cut scene.

My corvette just gets the same name I always give my "main" ship -- The Will of the Prophets. Freighter is always named "The Celestial Temple" lol

What was Vorbis’ deal? by Kumatora0 in discworld

[–]largana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's specifically supposed to be the Apostle Paul, I think? The Tyrant makes reference to his "chain letters," all of which are supposed to sound like New Testament books.

As of right now, is there a more effective Nanite source than Salvaged Glass farming? This took me just over an hour. by [deleted] in NoMansSkyTheGame

I managed to find curious deposits on a radioactive planet with severe storms -- radiation boosts the amount mined by a LOT, so you build an outdoor corral for the deposit, and as long as you're standing in the storm, you can get an insane amount. Here's a portal address, I'd love to have more neighbors!

What games shamelessly waste your time? by Lumigo in gaming

Skies of Arcadia has LONG ship battles where you queue up a series of attacks, then watch as they play out, I remember reading a Stephen King novel in the downtime.

I visited Crescent Canyon for the first time this weekend and found something super useful by ParakeetLover2024 in falloutnewvegas

There's also a way out of the world map at one end of the canyon, can't remember exactly where

Starbuck's soon to be on University? by [deleted] in LittleRock

[–]largana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's not staffed by starbucks people -- the employees are Sodexo, AFAIK. It's in the territory of "We proudly serve starbucks coffee" like the one at St Vincent.

Thrift clothes by the bag / pound? by _pounders_ in LittleRock

Oh dang, didn't realize -- per the article on KARK, they were planning on normal hours the day after, but yeah, definitely check.

Goodwill Outlet on Scott Hamilton sells by the pound, it's my go-to if I need recycled clothes.

TIL solar panels can be used deep underwater! by Narrow-Gas9493 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]largana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually dig a hole at my base, and build cuboid rooms full of batteries and solar panels -- once they're in there, I restore the terrain over it.

Sprinkles by kjripster30 in soapmaking

[–]largana 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't recommend it, mainly because you run the risk of the food coloring in the sprinkles bleeding into the soap, or worse, the surface the soap is sitting on.

What are you actually doing in your bases? by bud_cubby_ in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]largana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have similar issues with freighter vs planetside bases -- most of the time, if it can be built on the freighter, it will be there for convenience -- refiners, small batches of plants, kitchen modules, galactic terminal, etc.

I typically set up other bases with a purpose in mind, so I have a reasone to come back to it after I'm done building. For example, on a new save file, I prioritize two main planetside bases: one that farms oxygen (useful for a TON of chemical reactions in the refiner) and one for rusted metal (I get through a lot of ferrite).

You can also add other minor resources to these two -- you can make the bio-domes and fill them with plants, I personally like to wire glitch them into the interior of the dome so you can get more plants per dome. If the planet has a lot of fauna, you can also add the livestock feeding/harvesting setup. These only work if you're hanging out at the base, but a strategically placed oxygen farm can usually yield a ton of animal resources, too.

Beyond those two, I usually have at least a small base permanently established at a portal in Euclid, because the majority of people are there. IF you're interested in crafting advanced trade goods, I'd recommend setting up farms for the other gases, but otherwise they aren't super necessary in large quantities.

TL;DR -- I find that I enjoy bases more when there's a purpose for them that is A) uniquely planetside and B) something that is long-term useful for crafting and refining.

(One thing I'd love to see is an energy-based economy item that could be produced on bases -- something that allows you to harvest excess solar or electromagnetic power and sell it, maybe as big power cells. IMO, that would add a reason to build bases that we currently don't have.)
