i lost my starship and I need help desperately.

lemme rewind a bit started playing the game a couple of weeks back. I finally made a hyperdrive and went to another star system. i found a distress signal to a nearby planet, which turned out to be part of the main mission. i landed on this planet and went after the signal. found the broken ship and base of someone called Artemis. got the blueprints for advanced mining laser and had to go to space station for wiring loom. I’d added Artemis’ starship to my collection and when i turned to go to my starship, the HUD showed the new starship as ‘my’ starship. it won’t show where my actual starship is and now I’m left with this hunk of junk.

this thing has absolutely nothing in working order, you have to repair a lot of stuff, and some of it requires: a wiring loom. anyway, I tried to summon my ship but it says “you need 25% fuel in launch thrusters to summon. you have 100%”. wtf. I’d checked the launch thrusters before embarking towards the signal, and it had 16% in launch thrusters. I mistakenly assumed that would be enough and went on my merry way.

now how do i get out of this. the only way i see is to restore a previous save, but that would set me back quite a bit. does anyone know any other way?

Hauler fans rejoice! There’s now a reason to use a Hauler over other ships.

They can be upgraded to 42 total cargo slots, which is twice what other normal ships can have.

Edit: For clarity, the new max for Haulers is 48-21-42.

Other ships max out at 48-21-21.

The Golden Vector and Twitch ships are exceptions to the rule.

Playing multiplayer sessions has injected a fresh boost into my NMS playthrough, I’m now having regular weekly sessions with a friend in the next town over and we’ll often talk though the week about the plan for the next session.

During our last session, my friend was getting tired of flying his ship, but wanted to keep shooting pirates in system. I prefer to fly the ships and don’t have much patience with space combat in this game. So suddenly the idea of the two seater ships enters the conversation – wouldn’t it be cool if that was a thing? After all, we’re usually flying around together making mischief but the idea of a dedicated gunner holds some merit in the context of the multiplayer experience. Maybe this could be possible with something that amounts to a bomber class vessel?
