So I started a new Permadeath save after my previous PD save grief period ended and I wanted to try different ways of doing things. There’s a nice cooking guide that I read a few years ago if anyone’s interested. TLDR at the end

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/g4fynb/lazy_cooking_for_nanites_guide_updated/

So the simplest way is using 200 fungal mold and turn them into 50 delicious vegetable stew with at least 4 nutrient processors. I built 16 so I could get it done faster (4 full runs at a time). Total harvest from the bio dome was 1296 fungal mold that became 324 delicious vegetable stews.

With 55k nanite I went to the anomaly and gave them all for Chronos to taste and now I’m at 88k nanites, 33k richer than before. It takes 20 minutes for the whole cooking process to happen from fungal to stew, so I spent around 40 minutes as it took me 2 runs on the 16 nutrient processors. The first part is a very chill thing to do – fill the processors and wait. I took my time to read a nice book in the intervals of filling processors. There’s also mods that makes refining and cooking instant, so that’d save a lot of time for PC players.

The second part is giving it to Chronos and that is too repetitive. Took me some 25 minutes to give it all to him and I paused at every 1/3 of the way because it was very boring. I spent an hour scrapping A class cheap ships (eventually s classes too) and while I got a little more nanites and lost some cash it wasn’t as tedious as giving him all that stuff. But considering that the first part you’re relatively “free” to do other stuff, it goes like 25 minutes of super boringness against an hour of regular boringness so it still is a better alternative, at least for me.

Scrapping ships have their additional perks tough – enough storage augmentations and you can make quite some cash getting an eventual s class ship to 48 slots, gaining a 100+million units surplus in the process while still hoarding some S class upgrades from the eventual S class ships you’ll stumble upon.

TLDR: So if I’ve got my fleet all patched up I’d go for delicious vegetable stews, if I want some upgrades then it’s ship scrapping time.

Are you a fricking architect? Or do you keep it with prefabs? Personally i only use prefabs in the worst way possible

Grah or Nah?

I’ve owned this game since release, and have finally gotten into it, sinking 100+ hours in a couple weeks. Loving it – aside from space combat. Having played Elite Dangerous a ton (and I’m sure you’re all annoyed hearing the comparisons constantly) and being pretty damn good at combat from smaller agile ships to larger ones, NMS just isn’t clicking with me?

I just got my 150 kill milestone, and I’m pretty sure I just hold ‘S’ and shoot for all of them. I’ve tried chasing and using different loadouts, but it doesn’t matter, because the AI just does some crazy tight turn and flips on me, and their shield are back on in 0.5 seconds. I landed on cyclotron for shields and infraknife for hull because nothing has the RPM or velocity to break shield and do hull damage, but from what I’ve seen from searches here, pure infraknife is just OP and the way to go.

So am I doing something wrong, is this just it? Hold ‘S’ and shoot with infraknife? I’m not dogging on this game in any way, I just want to know if there’s a way for the space combat to be more fun. I want to be able to chase and stay on a craft’s tail while using different weapons, or loop or scissor out of someone chasing me. The AI seems like they can pull crazy maneuvers and then be simultaneously braindead, I either have a 0.25 timeframe to shoot, or they just fly straight.
