    So ughhh are we allowed talk about duplication glitches here?

    I don't see why not, but wasn't the portable refinery one patched out?

    Question.

    I started the game in a robot (kvorax?) system and am wondering if I’m better off jumping to another system early on or grinding away here?

    It’s a long time since I’ve played and things have changed quite slot since then.

    Thanks for any help in advance.

    M.

    The only real reasons to jump to a new system are 1) if a resource you are looking for isn't available (i.e gamma roots), 2) economy of that system isn't good, or 3) there are no good habitable planets to setup your base in.

    You need 2 refiners, place the 1st on the ground (flat ground makes it easier) and put an item you want to duplicate in and back out, place the 2nd refiners as close as possible right in front of it lined up exactly the same, open up the 2nd refiner and your item should be there duplicated, take that out and take the 2nd refiner away, open up the first and the original item should be there put that in your inventory and back out, then start the process again.


    I probably explained it badly so look at youtube to see it in action.

    Cool, I get the gist of it :D

    Have a nosey here :
    Item(s) duplication glitch for those who are into that:
    1. Put a refinery down.
    2. Put an item inside it
    3. Put a second refinery down
    4. Open second refinery, take duplicate item.
    5. Pick up second refinery
    6. Repeat steps 3-4

    It duplicates the item, and also the amount.

    (Confirm works on XB1)

    Buy a technology module, I think they are expensive enough, duplicate until you have 5 stacked so that should be 5x50000, so 250000, duplicate that 5 etc until you have around 2 million, go to the galactic market and buy a superconductor( if you can might have to change systems) duplicate 5 of them stacked to 10 million value and duplicate those until you cant take no more :D values may vary obviously but the above figure are from my game.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,570 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Just remember that prices drop as you sell things, so you may need to move to a new system after selling a lot of stuff.

    I need help!

    Came across a crashed ship, bought it for 0 units, but my own ship was there so each time I got into 1 of them, it changed my primary ship. I had to leave suddenly while playing it, and was in the broken ship. When I loaded up my game, I was still in the broken ship but my own ship has disappeared. I had a few tech modules in it so I want to get it back! Anyone know where it might have gone? It's not on my freighter!


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,570 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Depends on what you selected when you found it i think. I added them to my collection, and they all showed up on my freighter eventually. Even the ones i didn't repair.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,779 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    I picked the Buy option for 0 units, and I know there was a swap/transfer option or something like that. I'm positive I own both of them. Let's hope it just turns up! Meanwhile, I'm on the planet trying to fix the one I have!


  • Posts: 15,777 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Thats likely a story line ship with a lot of damaged parts blocking the slots. It'll be on your freighter. If not call it in with down on the d-pad and then left.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,622 ✭✭✭Revoker88


    I wouldnt bother repairing ships tbh,just buy them.

    Save you a lot of material gathering!


  • Posts: 15,777 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    How many times have people warped? I ask becasue to progress polo's stuff you need to warp 30 times I've done 9 in 30 hours.

    Also did anyone else's achievement/trophy for traveller rank in distance on foot glitch?


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,570 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    I'm 25 hours in, and only only hit the 30 warp jumps just after Polo asked about it. I'd been using the teleporters to get around the systems i'd visited for a while before that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,408 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    I think they could throw a lot of tips into the game. Like for a good while I was using Ferrite dust and pure Ferrite to charge the terrain manipulator when it only cost 20 magnetised Ferrite to charge it fully.

    Where or how is the best way to get an upgraded multitool?

    I got mine from talkin to an alien. You can reliably see ones to exchange or buy in minor settlements on planets. In the red box on the wall.

    Its RNG though so might take some time to get a better one than you have

    Also on the anomoly station,its in the cylinder looking thing on the right once you walk into the room polo and nada are in


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,570 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    You can get a replacement at any Station as well. Beside the guy who sells the mutlitool upgrades. It is still RNG though. I got a 23 slot one pretty early on, and can't see myself ever replacing it.

    Sounds like you're boosting and then letting go again. The timer is based on your current speed so goes up and down depending on how fast you're going.

    Quickest way I've found is fly up high so you're almost in orbit then back down again towards wherever you want to get.

    Go up out of the atmosphere and lb+rb boost to it. It will literally save many minutes of your life.

    Install "Another Flight Model" mod if on PC.

    https://nomansskymods.com/mods/another-flight-model/

    Altho it does make attacking Manufacturing bases a lot easier when you can hover and blow open the doors and all the sentinels.

    WHere can i find frost crystals???? I've been running around 2 frozen planets for an hour now and not seen the plants that have them:confused:


    EDIT: And as soon as I post my partner who continued the hunt while I typed here found the f'n things :D

    Secondary on trees on cold planets.

    Get the farmer and start growing them as soon as you can.
