protip - you can get as many photonix cores as you have nanites for (2,800 per) by doing the expedition from the main save, and making sure you have the starborn runner ship active before you return to main save. After returning to main save, you can copy the starborn runner (if you already have one, you'll need to scrap it) Now you can package the core, stash it in storage, and scrap the ship. Repeat as many times as you like to get multiple photonix cores. You will only be able to do this until the next redux starts.
There are both heptoid wheat and sweetroot at RV1, if you look out from the RV1 archive landing platforms towards the ocean you will see them both, 200ish U iiirc
@sonalita_ I found them last night too. Did u also know that Kelp Sac (underwater, used to just refill your O2 level normally) when *harvested* and put through a Nutrient Processor twice gives you flour? Finding the wheat and sweetroot so close to R1 might change things. Gonna do two runs and chk this tomorrow night. Good find
@@ElanPaul The completionist in me is trying to work through every refiner and nutrient recipe to get it in my in-game catalog so I knew about kelp-rice -> flour but I dismissed it as less efficient than finding wheat on your route. You can also do it using frost crystals=->glass grains->flour. (and you can make frost crystals from dioxite + oxygen) I suppose its a question of deciding if running 100ish u to a plant or swimming to a kelp sac and doing an extra cooking cycle is faster.
@sonalita_ I am already swimming to a freighter underwater... but knowing EXACTLY where the two plants can be found BEFORE I need them may make a huge difference. Probably knock 5 extra off my time. Same for 3 buried items which we need before first space station. Gonna be pretty interesting tomorrow night
The planet New Ealius in the rendezvous 2 system has the exotic creature to scan also for the achievement. It’s directly infront of space station when you leave the station.
I found a faster way to complete hot pursuit milestone. No need to even warp to pirate system. The rendezvous 3 site crashed freighter, one of the containers has a grahgrah inside and sells at space station for 150K.
@nahnoway1 nice! Found this. Good call. Facing the wreck, it is inside the left room container. Leave R3, go thru Black Hole, sell at Space Station before jumping back to R3 Station and you are done. Nice find!

@@sonalita_ very cool idea! Thx for sharing!
FYI double cook Cactus flesh = lisuid syrup=Sugar .....
Unreal. Never thought of that. Hmmm.... got me thinking now...

@nahnoway1 Unreal. Never noticed. That will definitely save me a couple of minutes. Thank you again!
small point but you don't actually need to talk to the emergency beacon by your ship at the start. A tip more for the speedrunners.
I was doing more damage to the animals with my mining laser than the weapon they gave you
