No Man's Sky Glyph Exchange

The Orbital update has introduced the notion of starship construction. For those who haven't explored this aspect of the game yet (or are still waiting for the Xbox update), the new space stations have a construction terminal where you can build a fighter, explorer, or hauler (no solars, exotics, shuttles, or interceptors at this time). The way it works is, each ship is constructed from base components that you obtain by salvaging a starship, and a reactor core that you purchase from the starship tech merchant at the station (the class of the reactor core determines the class of the ship). For a hauler you need: cockpit, wings, and engine. For a fighter, it's: fuselage, thruster, and wings. For an explorer, you have hull, left wing and right wing. Note that each component can (and for wings, typically is) a set of *multiple* of components, which is how you get all the variations. To obtain a component, you have to scrap a ship that has the configuration you want. The ship scapper has a new option to let you salvage one component. So if you want to make a ship, you have to scrap three ships total to get each component: cockpi+wing+engine for hauler, fuselage+wing+thruster for fighter, and left+right+hull for explorer. ![](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F8605639a-ec98-4572-9334-5e424c15a44b.jpeg) Testing has shown that supercharged slot arrangement is procedural. The same components (including the reactor core, so S-class vs A-class etc. matters) at the same space station will result in the same SC slot configuration. Color is irrelevant. So what does this mean for the Glyph Exchange? It means we can publish glyphs to space stations that result in favorable SC slot arrangements for a given starship configuration. The question is, how best to do that? Since the subject lines here are intended to serve as an index, I'd like to suggest using this form: Fabricated Starship/*Galaxy* Then we have to name the parts and provide a photo of the SC slot configuration that you get from that space station with that configuration. ![](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F94a0cfac-780d-4e47-94fb-f22bcb09defc.jpeg) As for part naming, though it's tempting to use the game's "language" for the parts, there are a *lot* of component names because they are describing *combinations* of parts rather than the parts themselves, and those names have a lot of potentially confusing redundancies. I think it's better for us to stick with the standard part names we always use, as people are already familiar with those and it's pretty easy to figure out which ships you need to scrap to get what you want.

# Welcome to the No Man's Sky Glyph Exchange This community serves as a searchable index of "finds" in the No Man's Sky universe. Players post their discoveries with the galaxy, system's portal address, and planet name (where relevant) so that other players can locate them, too. All you need to visit another player's discovery are: - Access to the galaxy where the discovery was found - Knowledge of the glyphs that are in the portal address - The location of a portal **How to locate a discovery** The process for locating a discovery depends on the type of discovery. The following is a hyperlink index of the various discovery guides. *NOTE: This is currently a work in progress. Links will be provided as guides are made available.* - [Starships](https://lemmy.world/post/1332644) - [Multitools](https://lemmy.world/post/3948258) - [Freighters](https://lemmy.world/post/2776601) - Frigates - Derelict Freighters - Planets - Fauna - Flora **Additional resources for Travelers** The following are links to various resources that are useful to Travelers. - [How to obtain glyphs](https://www.fanbyte.com/games/guides/no-mans-sky-portal-glyph-guide-how-to-unlock-all-nms-glyphs/).

I've converted a system in Euclid into a Stasis Device factory. I've built a base on every planet with a local Mineral, Gas, and Flora. Each base has Refiners and access to Storage. Feel free to stop by if you're low on Units. Remember to turn off Multiplayer before emptying the Supply Depots. ``` | Base | Mineral | Gas | Flora | ------------------------------------------------------ | Alpha | Paraffinium | Nitrogen | Star Bulb | | Beta | Dioxite | Radon | Frost Crystal | | Gamma | Phosphorus | Sulphurine | Solar Vine | | Delta | Cobalt | Oxygen | Echinocactus | | Epsilon | Uranium | Oxygen | Gamma Weed | | Zeta | Copper | Oxygen | Gutrot Flower | ```

After a lot of planetary landings, I finally found one! Galaxy is **Hilbert Dimension**!

No filters were used; I promise. The colors look "normal" when it's (fire*) storming. Feel free to visit my base—a WIP—if you're in the area! *edit: I was wrong. They're super-heated rainstorms

When I first found it, it did also give an entered building message, but I haven't managed to test it in a storm. I'm currently distracted in my Permadeath run looking for more of these ... structures?

Spotted this beautiful red and white hauler with off-white elements and yellow writing. Haven't seen one this pretty and clean.

White grass planets are nice, but pink grass is so much more chill. Add to that blue-green seas, pink skies, and a wonderful view of a neighboring ringed planet + moon, and you've got a premier destination for anyone visiting the Galaxy 59 core. Sure, there are some minor storms every now and again, but the pink serpent-butterflies and blue-white nighttime nebulae make up for any intermittent weather inconvenience. Visit today! 1146FAFFDFFA 07F9:0079:07FC:0146
