Ground reclamation has been driving me crazy.Thank you for the heads up and thank you for your hard work Professor Xaine! You are a professional, a scholar, and a gentleman.
After coming back to the game from a long hiatus, this is incredible for all new features. I was a day 1 player, so base building just wasn't in my books yet.
Found out about the ground "healing" itself from my very first base when I went back to visit it after a long time being away. Had to dig the terrain away inside the base and even remove a wall panel to be able to get out of it. These days I build bases on pylons constructed on virgin ground and build them high enough that no horizontal construction will intersect the ground or any plant life.
Thank you for taking time. Another one is, place proximity sensors on Teleporters and Staorages so that it only activates when you are going to use it. It saves power and looks cool.
that is the simplest resolve for my first unanswered question about all the wasted resources used in powering up tech. and I am the kinda guy who leaves lights on.
I maybe in the minority but I’m really starting to enjoy the wiring. And making the energy sources whether it’s a hot spot or solar made. I hated it at first.
Ray Miller place a simple proximity switch in line with the power wire to your storage box. That way it only drains power when standing next to it to use it.
you have some of the smoothest vids on this game I have seen. You give relevant facts in a concise manner. You do not go off on tangents about bugs, glitches and all round useless babble about unimportant BS, and you speak in a fairly calm monotone which I fine easy to listen to and absorb pertinent info.
Wonderful video, thanks Xaine! I always try to route my power and supply lines underground and found that it's a lot easier to keep track of the service holes by parking my ship and/or exocraft near them, especially on extreme weather planets and underwater
Loved the video, thank you. Flashing lights can be done with one inverter. Also night-time only light with a solar panel as a signal instead of power source.
52:40 How do you farm this much Oxygen ? Is there a fully automatic machine to collect oxygen ? I have one that requires fuel input constantly and can't put it in supply depot. So how ?
I haven't finished the video, but thought it Already deserved a comment!!! First things first, THANK YOU!!!! I started the video, and realized I haven't really had much trouble with #30, and thought, "man, it sure would be nice if he put Time Stamps in the description for each different thing!" And to my surprise, you actually did!!!! I have watched too many videos that I wished had Time Stamps in the description! Well update comment if I feel it's necessary...
I know this tutorial is probably out of date now, but it still gave me a good idea about how electricity in NMS works. Thanks for the great video, I really like your no-nonsense delivery and focus on the important details! Cheers :)
Love your combination lock. With as far as your buttons are from the door... For added fun/security, add a motion sensor near the door. People watching the buttons to see if the door opens won't know they have the combo right unless they know to run over close to the door itself. :)
Thank you for this great video! I strobe with an inverter and a toggle switch. I dont use two inverters. They do this on their own with the output and center post connected to the power line which I have lights attached to. The only reason I have the switch is so I can turn off. I have two sets of two different color lights blinking on my Portal Bases deck, as well as an exocraft runway with red blinking lights! Its neat looking.
Dude. IDK if I missed the tutorial about the terrain manipulator creating land, but holy smokes. I started a base in a cave awhile back and got upset when I made a hole too deep in a mountain creating a hole. I wished there was a way to patch it I thought. I gave up on the base and moved on. After seeing this I ran back to my base and patched it up. Now I cannot wait to work on that base! Thanks for the info.
I learned a lot thanks ... wish I had known about the clearing of earth re spawning over time before I built my cool base... I was wondering why my lower floors were filling up with earth every few days lol. So I also found you can't run long lengths of wire with out losing power but by putting a solar panel and battery in line the wire will now transfer the "big" power from the power source {ie electro-magnetic source) simple fix and it works.
That massive chlorine refinery isn’t possible anymore. The per-base limit is now 3 medium and 2 large refiners, rather than that huge farm of refiners. There appears to be no limit on the number of refiners on a freighter, but freighters have space limits.
the freighter machines have also been kinda buggy for me so far (new to the game w/ thist most recent expedition, Polestar). I built a lot of stellar extractors but most of them quit collecting anything. 🤷♂️ And I built a few refiners and now once in a while one of them gets a big stack of copper spawning in its input and chromatic metal spawns in its output-even after emptying it multiple times and using it for other refining. So far the freighter farm rooms work the most consistently. Haven't had a major problem yet, mainly sticking with the quad planter rooms. The freighter space is massive, but maybe it's small compared to some of these elaborate bases. I think it can be 14 stories tall, and the horizontal limit is pretty large: you can have several thousand rooms. But I don't know if it runs into resource limits or other bugs depending on how you use the rooms. I also read that the freighter has some type of power limit, and each of the rooms draws a bit from that, but there doesn't seem to be a good way of seeing the power grid status the way you can with a battery on a planetary base. Hmm.
I'm not even kidding... I saw so many Squid Ships back in 2019 on one planet and all I could do was observe them. I was so broke. I have seen like one since and I ran to grab it and the pilot flew off before I could get there. Super sad lol
• 31:37 Logic Switches 101 & One-Way Power Current Question: I tried to wire a button to my short range teleporter so I need to push a button to teleport instead of just step too close. I haven't pushed the button and it is still on. It won't ever turn off. Is this because I'm building in the Square Room (large structure). Are those just always on no matter what?
Kinda of, the square and cuboid rooms have conductive power, there are likely ways to position the teleporter so it doesn't auto power but never tried playing with that
@@XainesWorld With cuboid rooms if I build them higher than one unit, they start to get weather (actually, even just one level and they sometimes start to get weather in some spots). Do the wooden/concrete/whatever parts also have this problem?
@@KaoruTai cant claim I've seen every possible scenario for this problem. But I can say, for SURE, that on one of my builds that has a massive exocraft hanger/ garage that's about 6 levels high of interior space, made of metal, glass & concrete, that the storms on my planet rage around inside it like it's not even there. If you stand under the floors of second level shelving and walkways, the game then treats it like an interior.. But ONLY underneath those shelves/walkways. Step out from under them and your getting blasted by the weather again. I REALLY, REALLY wish they'd address this because my otherwise gorgeous world, has storms at least three times in every in-game day. 8(
Im really glad your channel popped up because a few videos ive seen i kinda understood but when id go to actually do it id be like ah shit which of these go up and which goes down or etc. I mean as far as game play goes i have a few bases and ships and freighter storage loaded with max stacks of stuff but on my planets i have like 1 design and its a shoe box with solar panels and a sun roof
A lot of these tricks are really handy. Especially the wire glitch, as difficult as it is to do consistently; very useful for getting lights in some places the game doesn't normally allow, though I do notice it doesn't always work. It is a bit annoying that we have to use glitches (or mods) for some things, though. Like flipping some pieces upside down; you'd think there'd just be a button for that, but no. Or being able to pick which teleporter you're using with short range teleporters.
A few of these things changed since the video got out, like the fact that you can use your multitool inside now, so you can deal with terrain that grows back, and even that happens way less now (grass and such can grow through objects, but terrain not so much; it will detect structures and build itself back under them and in some cases around them, but not inside, except if bugged). Also, the inside/outside boundaries have been loosened, since now building a roof on a structure will usually consider the structure is "inside" even if you delete a wall (my garage is as such and I am completly inside when in it even though a whole huge wall is missing). And we have an object which allows us to make wires invisible when not in build mode.
Hey, Xaine. I have seen some cool builds on the NMS subreddit every now and then, one of them being a space station in low orbit (high above the clouds). Is there a height limit to base building? If so, is there a way to get around that height limit? I would really like to try building a space station. Great video, as always. Thanks!
I love this idea. I know though that there isn't a height limit at least not immediately. After low orbit you get into space and start taking actual damage. However if you built a cuboid room right away as soon as you started taking dmg/getting a warning and you go inside then build with camera mode you might be ok. Let me know
Just wanted to say Xaine you are a legend 💪 picked this game up 2 weeks ago and I'm genuinely having a blast playing it. Hands down my favourite game. I had a gander on your website mate and it just opened the game right up. All the little permutations to the refinery , Ship guides , base tips etc etc. I'd buy you a pint big man 😀 thanks for taking the time to teach us noobs 😂
@@XainesWorld have a question dude.... Extending base boundaries... From my understanding Xbox ( which I play on ) has a cap limit on placeable structures... Would extending base boundary increase that cap ??
@@scottishhighlander1602 to an extent yes, though it depends what cap you are on about. All platforms have a save file cap of 20,000 items placed total everywhere for a save, this is an insane amount, my biggest farms are only in the hundreds. If by cap you mean base complexity, this system works in localised spots, so the more concentrated everything is for placement, the more it is affected by it and extending the base out would lower the concentration of parts placed by spreading it out allowing for more to be placed in general. hope that's understandable, and not rambly O.o
@@XainesWorld no no that makes perfect sense actually. I just thought with Xbox/PS4 hardware compared to PC the cap may have been lowered and complexity would be an issue for console. Thanks again man.. going to build Hadley's Hope from the film Aliens on my permadeath save 😂😂
@@scottishhighlander1602 tbf, complexity is an issue on console and will be in comparison, i used the extra ability PC has for building insane amount of aesthetic detail, console would have to be a fair bit more conservative with the shiny stuff lol
51:55 I know it's an old video, but I was wondering how long it took you to empty all the oxygen generators and fill all the refiners with chlorine and oxygen each time? Or is there a way to empty/fill all at once?
VERY awesome video mah dude!!! The conductive lighting bit is an amazing find! I just took down 340 lights in my normal mode main base and was trying to figure out how i was going to redo it and make it look good lol. Love the combination lock as well! Very well done!
Discovered and fixed 29 yesterday myself while overbuilding a storage shed that ended up larger than my current build of an aquatic base. Frustrating since I already was distracted and building something I hadn't planned on, yet had to start over on twice due to stairs. Good to know for sure to everyone out there despite how small an issue it seems.
So trying to do the adjacency glitch and could do it fine in NEXT, but for some reason i can't get it to work in Beyond. What keys are you hitting and do you have to do a remap to make it work?
Hey I'm new and just starting to get into base buildings, and for underground bases will it save alterations made with the terrain manipulation tool itself? Was thinking of doing a half-natural tunnel base but if it'll fill in anyway I'd like to know ahead of time. Great video, although building a cool base is very daunting for me.
the lights and conductivity! I was so irritated by the (what seemed to me after a few tries) inconsistencies. thank you for demonstrating some solutions.
I messed around with the one way door and a few tips could be: 1. Put pressure plate before the walls. 2. Put the door inside to minimize space so it won't open from inside. 3. Build it close enough to a portal in a system shown by a youtuber, bases close to portals will still show up you just gotta give it time to load, small bases load up faster.
15:20 That red icon on the custom marker seems to be a new addition. I've used those markers every time when I found a hotspot (because I always lack of some building resources and head back to my base before I can proceed) but I've never seen this icon. So I guess it came with the latest patch? About that teleporter cable: This is just an idea but here it goes anyway (haven't tested it yet). Let's say you have 4 teleporters A, B, C and D. Connect A to B and C to D. This should tell the game which ones to connect to each other. So you can only teleport A B and C D.
Fantastic video! I can't thank you enough this was inspiring. I want to try and use the noise boxes coming from test once they patch Xbox with proximity switches on an exocraft track to play a cool song as you race around. I did this in a game called Trove to Coldplay's song Clocks. Could you do a video in-depth of the noise boxes?
I’m new to NMS. So this old video leaves me with questions: 23: Ground Reclamation. I am confused about this one because I have searched on the internet about this and have seen such contradiction as to whether this is true or not. So, I put it out there. 1: Does it reallly grow back? and 2: If so, how long does it take to grow back? 3: any tricks on preventing it from growing back.
This is great and exactly what I needed right now because I'm currently in the middle of working on several base builds at the moment aha. One of them being my, more or less, main base on my current playthrough, which is far from finished but the new, main objective is getting power up n running through it. The others are basically still in the blueprint design stage but I've been working on one that was a bit of a spur of the moment idea. It's gonna be a subterranean base near an ancient burial site on an anomalous planet, and I've yet to find the locations for the others but I wanna build my own space station-esk type of base as well as an Activated Indium farm somewhere. Not to mention I have yet to start working on an underwater abode because I haven't really done anything with what came in the abyss update. Aha well it looks like I've got a lot on my plate 😅. Surprisingly I am still having an issue with inventory and there not being enough of it, but then again I think it's more of a hoarding problem than anything else🤔🤣. Haha well thanks for the tips tho bro, as always you never fail to keep the info flowing. You da man! And sorry for the TLDR comment lol.😁😅
I've made a different combination lock using 9 push buttons and 3 wall switches, if you input the code in the wrong order it basically wont activate the auto switches. I also set an inverter to reset the combination anytime the wrong button is pressed as you did. The nice thing about using push buttons is that they are wired to not stay lit as you go. Just for the hell of it I also made sure that if the door is powered my vaults are not. I was thinking of making a sort of alarm if the wrong button is pressed, maybe using that strobe system you showed
Xaine, any chance you have an update planned for freighter bases? I'm know you have some "pre-beyond" freighter building videos, but have there been any major changes in beyond that have made these obsolete? I'm having lots of minor issues with a new freighter build, limits reached, hydroponic trays that wont place in certain spots or stay red when all the others around them are fine, etc etc..and not finding a lot of info about freighters in beyond, in general yet. Thanks again for all your time and efforts!
Indium mining - why? Buy up all the wire looms you can at a station - (min 5.5 million units worth to get going) Station-tele to the next station and do the same until you have as many as you can hold, then go back to that first station. Sell them all, and buy them back. Go to the next station, sell them all and buy them back. Each station your profit goes up (up to selling them causing a negative 81% value, then its the same each time) Assuming random station economies, you should reach 100 million units in about 8 or 9 hops, which is less than 5 minutes. An hour, you should be at the unit cap - half that if you're doing the warps to reach new stations.
Nice tips! Basebuilding was very glitchy on PS4 tonight. Cube rooms were not connecting. Even trying to install doors didn't allow me to enter into the cube rooms. Very strange, and randomly out of the blue...
Rather than a single super silo I like to take advantage of the way hills grow back to put all of my storage underground with a single pipe coming out for access
I wish the lockable/powered doors were still able to be put on regular walls. Dunno if my game is bugged or if they removed it but Im not able to do that in this update lol
How do I enter the viewing sphere? Does it need power? I have a small moon base with some fantastic views and can’t find much information about it. Any help gratefully received!
I need a river going under that bridge you built! I need NMS to add rivers and make the water graphics better Immediately! NMS has some extreme potential to be the best game ever made, just need more things diversity in things to do, and also more ease of base building!
Step 1: Make Everything Square Step 2: Don't look up how to base build, or the use of any components Step 3: Just buy whatever tech you have the resources for, shove it in a room and attach a million electrical cables to everything. Sorted
8:30 If you use your Base Camera View, hover about 50 u directly above where you want to build your stack of generators/extractors. Look DIRECTLY down. You will place each device precisely centered above the last one. 27:40 Isn’t “conduction by proximity” just the longer way of saying “induction”? 😂
Hello, I’m having issues with EM generators and wires not connecting, or dropping connections. Have you had this at all? Have you come across any solutions. Thanks, great videos!
Hi Xaine! First off i really like your channel and all the effort you put in to help us all! Kuddo’s!!! I have 3 questions, 1. How do i adjency glitch in om my PS4 (what are the buttons to push and in which order? 2. How can i expand my base borders so i can build further? 3. I have seen an older video and i think it was yours but i am not sure, it is about putting a sell/buy terminal into a buildingcube and make it snap into the side half of that cube. If it is yours could you give me a link because i can’t find it atm? Thanks again and keep up the good work! 👊🏼💙✌🏼
Just a thought, but when your farm is on a high sentinel plaent...you could put a Silo underground so you can collect all your stuff without the Sentinels shooting at you :)
you do realise the strobe lighting only needs one inverter attach one powered wire to the input, then one wire to the light from the out put of the inverter, then take a wire back from the light to the modifier on the inverter still works less parts

They do this on their own with the output and center post connected to the power line which I have lights attached to. The only reason I have the switch is so I can turn off. I have two sets of two different color lights blinking on my Portal Bases deck, as well as an exocraft runway with red blinking lights! Its neat looking.
Dude. IDK if I missed the tutorial about the terrain manipulator creating land, but holy smokes. I started a base in a cave awhile back and got upset when I made a hole too deep in a mountain creating a hole. I wished there was a way to patch it I thought. I gave up on the base and moved on. After seeing this I ran back to my base and patched it up. Now I cannot wait to work on that base! Thanks for the info.
I learned a lot thanks ... wish I had known about the clearing of earth re spawning over time before I built my cool base... I was wondering why my lower floors were filling up with earth every few days lol. So I also found you can't run long lengths of wire with out losing power but by putting a solar panel and battery in line the wire will now transfer the "big" power from the power source {ie electro-magnetic source) simple fix and it works.
thanks for that.
That massive chlorine refinery isn’t possible anymore. The per-base limit is now 3 medium and 2 large refiners, rather than that huge farm of refiners.
There appears to be no limit on the number of refiners on a freighter, but freighters have space limits.
the freighter machines have also been kinda buggy for me so far (new to the game w/ thist most recent expedition, Polestar). I built a lot of stellar extractors but most of them quit collecting anything. 🤷♂️ And I built a few refiners and now once in a while one of them gets a big stack of copper spawning in its input and chromatic metal spawns in its output-even after emptying it multiple times and using it for other refining. So far the freighter farm rooms work the most consistently. Haven't had a major problem yet, mainly sticking with the quad planter rooms. The freighter space is massive, but maybe it's small compared to some of these elaborate bases. I think it can be 14 stories tall, and the horizontal limit is pretty large: you can have several thousand rooms. But I don't know if it runs into resource limits or other bugs depending on how you use the rooms. I also read that the freighter has some type of power limit, and each of the rooms draws a bit from that, but there doesn't seem to be a good way of seeing the power grid status the way you can with a battery on a planetary base. Hmm.
I'm not even kidding... I saw so many Squid Ships back in 2019 on one planet and all I could do was observe them. I was so broke. I have seen like one since and I ran to grab it and the pilot flew off before I could get there. Super sad lol
• 31:37 Logic Switches 101 & One-Way Power Current Question:
I tried to wire a button to my short range teleporter so I need to push a button to teleport instead of just step too close. I haven't pushed the button and it is still on. It won't ever turn off. Is this because I'm building in the Square Room (large structure). Are those just always on no matter what?
Kinda of, the square and cuboid rooms have conductive power, there are likely ways to position the teleporter so it doesn't auto power but never tried playing with that
@@XainesWorld With cuboid rooms if I build them higher than one unit, they start to get weather (actually, even just one level and they sometimes start to get weather in some spots). Do the wooden/concrete/whatever parts also have this problem?
@@KaoruTai cant claim I've seen every possible scenario for this problem.
But I can say, for SURE, that on one of my builds that has a massive exocraft hanger/ garage that's about 6 levels high of interior space, made of metal, glass & concrete, that the storms on my planet rage around inside it like it's not even there.
If you stand under the floors of second level shelving and walkways, the game then treats it like an interior..
But ONLY underneath those shelves/walkways.
Step out from under them and your getting blasted by the weather again.
I REALLY, REALLY wish they'd address this because my otherwise gorgeous world, has storms at least three times in every in-game day.
8(
Omg so many tipps! ❤️ I‘m gonna forget at least half of them. Gotta rewatch probably a couple times😂
Im really glad your channel popped up because a few videos ive seen i kinda understood but when id go to actually do it id be like ah shit which of these go up and which goes down or etc. I mean as far as game play goes i have a few bases and ships and freighter storage loaded with max stacks of stuff but on my planets i have like 1 design and its a shoe box with solar panels and a sun roof
Thanks!
Aaaw thank you bud, that's super kind of you
@@XainesWorld No worries man, it was a well explained and educational video. You're also great fun to watch. ^_^
A lot of these tricks are really handy. Especially the wire glitch, as difficult as it is to do consistently; very useful for getting lights in some places the game doesn't normally allow, though I do notice it doesn't always work.
It is a bit annoying that we have to use glitches (or mods) for some things, though. Like flipping some pieces upside down; you'd think there'd just be a button for that, but no. Or being able to pick which teleporter you're using with short range teleporters.
There's only 2 things I want in NMS. Fix the damn snapping on this game, and starship customisation.
Well you got one of them .-.😂
A few of these things changed since the video got out, like the fact that you can use your multitool inside now, so you can deal with terrain that grows back, and even that happens way less now (grass and such can grow through objects, but terrain not so much; it will detect structures and build itself back under them and in some cases around them, but not inside, except if bugged). Also, the inside/outside boundaries have been loosened, since now building a roof on a structure will usually consider the structure is "inside" even if you delete a wall (my garage is as such and I am completly inside when in it even though a whole huge wall is missing). And we have an object which allows us to make wires invisible when not in build mode.
Hey, Xaine. I have seen some cool builds on the NMS subreddit every now and then, one of them being a space station in low orbit (high above the clouds). Is there a height limit to base building? If so, is there a way to get around that height limit? I would really like to try building a space station. Great video, as always. Thanks!
I love this idea. I know though that there isn't a height limit at least not immediately. After low orbit you get into space and start taking actual damage. However if you built a cuboid room right away as soon as you started taking dmg/getting a warning and you go inside then build with camera mode you might be ok. Let me know
Just wanted to say Xaine you are a legend 💪 picked this game up 2 weeks ago and I'm genuinely having a blast playing it. Hands down my favourite game. I had a gander on your website mate and it just opened the game right up. All the little permutations to the refinery , Ship guides , base tips etc etc. I'd buy you a pint big man 😀 thanks for taking the time to teach us noobs 😂
Thank you for the kind words man
@@XainesWorld have a question dude.... Extending base boundaries... From my understanding Xbox ( which I play on ) has a cap limit on placeable structures... Would extending base boundary increase that cap ??
@@scottishhighlander1602 to an extent yes, though it depends what cap you are on about.
All platforms have a save file cap of 20,000 items placed total everywhere for a save, this is an insane amount, my biggest farms are only in the hundreds.
If by cap you mean base complexity, this system works in localised spots, so the more concentrated everything is for placement, the more it is affected by it and extending the base out would lower the concentration of parts placed by spreading it out allowing for more to be placed in general.
hope that's understandable, and not rambly O.o
@@XainesWorld no no that makes perfect sense actually. I just thought with Xbox/PS4 hardware compared to PC the cap may have been lowered and complexity would be an issue for console. Thanks again man.. going to build Hadley's Hope from the film Aliens on my permadeath save 😂😂
@@scottishhighlander1602 tbf, complexity is an issue on console and will be in comparison, i used the extra ability PC has for building insane amount of aesthetic detail, console would have to be a fair bit more conservative with the shiny stuff lol
Aahhhh... The SEED SHIP!! My man!!!
51:55 I know it's an old video, but I was wondering how long it took you to empty all the oxygen generators and fill all the refiners with chlorine and oxygen each time? Or is there a way to empty/fill all at once?
The extractors when linked are combined, so super easy, the refiners are manual though, so ages lol
Any ideas how to place half ramp next wall to create stairs like in 3:47 but with wall on one side?
Been needing a base and power video like this. Amazing video
Thank you sir!, just getting started to learn about NMS building and this video will jump start me nicely!
The shortrange teleporter system is sweet!!! Hopefully it works soon. Great vid.
VERY awesome video mah dude!!! The conductive lighting bit is an amazing find! I just took down 340 lights in my normal mode main base and was trying to figure out how i was going to redo it and make it look good lol. Love the combination lock as well! Very well done!
Discovered and fixed 29 yesterday myself while overbuilding a storage shed that ended up larger than my current build of an aquatic base. Frustrating since I already was distracted and building something I hadn't planned on, yet had to start over on twice due to stairs.
Good to know for sure to everyone out there despite how small an issue it seems.
So trying to do the adjacency glitch and could do it fine in NEXT, but for some reason i can't get it to work in Beyond. What keys are you hitting and do you have to do a remap to make it work?
Incredibly helpful! Thank you
Thanks for your work dude, I digged your Upside Down trick to make some cool parts in my base !
3:44
The small floors also fix this, but that’s a worse solution, ordering the placements it better
Hey I'm new and just starting to get into base buildings, and for underground bases will it save alterations made with the terrain manipulation tool itself? Was thinking of doing a half-natural tunnel base but if it'll fill in anyway I'd like to know ahead of time. Great video, although building a cool base is very daunting for me.
the lights and conductivity!
I was so irritated by the (what seemed to me after a few tries) inconsistencies.
thank you for demonstrating some solutions.
I appreciate what you do good sir. The stairs were pissing me off lol
Super comprehensive! Thanks Xaine!
For number 14 you could use a proximity sensor and an auto switch to be more subtle.
I messed around with the one way door and a few tips could be:
1. Put pressure plate before the walls.
2. Put the door inside to minimize space so it won't open from inside.
3. Build it close enough to a portal in a system shown by a youtuber, bases close to portals will still show up you just gotta give it time to load, small bases load up faster.
15:20 That red icon on the custom marker seems to be a new addition. I've used those markers every time when I found a hotspot (because I always lack of some building resources and head back to my base before I can proceed) but I've never seen this icon. So I guess it came with the latest patch?
About that teleporter cable: This is just an idea but here it goes anyway (haven't tested it yet). Let's say you have 4 teleporters A, B, C and D. Connect A to B and C to D. This should tell the game which ones to connect to each other. So you can only teleport A B and C D.
Awesome video. I'm horrible with power connections and glitch building. I can never stack extractors or silos evenly. lol
Great tip about the seed ship, yes you gotta load it up, but after that- easy mode.
GJ
Fantastic video! Loved all of it!
Fantastic video! I can't thank you enough this was inspiring. I want to try and use the noise boxes coming from test once they patch Xbox with proximity switches on an exocraft track to play a cool song as you race around. I did this in a game called Trove to Coldplay's song Clocks. Could you do a video in-depth of the noise boxes?
So detailed...its even given time stamps...i love this channel...wish i cud create 50 accounts and subscribe 50 times😁
I’m new to NMS. So this old video leaves me with questions:
23: Ground Reclamation. I am confused about this one because I have searched on the internet about this and have seen such contradiction as to whether this is true or not. So, I put it out there. 1: Does it reallly grow back? and 2: If so, how long does it take to grow back? 3: any tricks on preventing it from growing back.
Very detailed video 👌 thanks very much 😊
I can't seem to get adjacency glitch to work at all. Should I be using the arrow keys, or does Q and E work as well?
The combination lock at the end just wow hahahaha awesome
superb tips from the master, keep up the incredible work.
This is great and exactly what I needed right now because I'm currently in the middle of working on several base builds at the moment aha. One of them being my, more or less, main base on my current playthrough, which is far from finished but the new, main objective is getting power up n running through it. The others are basically still in the blueprint design stage but I've been working on one that was a bit of a spur of the moment idea. It's gonna be a subterranean base near an ancient burial site on an anomalous planet, and I've yet to find the locations for the others but I wanna build my own space station-esk type of base as well as an Activated Indium farm somewhere. Not to mention I have yet to start working on an underwater abode because I haven't really done anything with what came in the abyss update. Aha well it looks like I've got a lot on my plate 😅. Surprisingly I am still having an issue with inventory and there not being enough of it, but then again I think it's more of a hoarding problem than anything else🤔🤣. Haha well thanks for the tips tho bro, as always you never fail to keep the info flowing. You da man! And sorry for the TLDR comment lol.😁😅

OMG UPSIDE DOWN TRIANGLE WALLS!!! THE VERY THING I WANTED FOREVER!
Great job explaining stuff. Nice work!
The base extending method helped me out on getting that electromatic power hot spot to power my base instead of using solar panels
Xaine, I think if you upload your base, the base extending trick doesn't work. I'm not 100% but might be worth further testing.
Awe thank you for this beautiful amazing base and byilding tips. 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
whoohooo ... just started on the Switch ... these tutorials are awesome!!!
Does anyone know how much of this is patched or changed now? great vid ty !
I've made a different combination lock using 9 push buttons and 3 wall switches, if you input the code in the wrong order it basically wont activate the auto switches.
I also set an inverter to reset the combination anytime the wrong button is pressed as you did.
The nice thing about using push buttons is that they are wired to not stay lit as you go.
Just for the hell of it I also made sure that if the door is powered my vaults are not.
I was thinking of making a sort of alarm if the wrong button is pressed, maybe using that strobe system you showed
Great video! 👏👏👏🤯 Just want to point out that having sections recorded at night makes it difficult to see what's going on at times. 😬 Thank you! 🙏
Xaine, any chance you have an update planned for freighter bases? I'm know you have some "pre-beyond" freighter building videos, but have there been any major changes in beyond that have made these obsolete? I'm having lots of minor issues with a new freighter build, limits reached, hydroponic trays that wont place in certain spots or stay red when all the others around them are fine, etc etc..and not finding a lot of info about freighters in beyond, in general yet. Thanks again for all your time and efforts!
A freighter mega guide that will include a base section is on my to-do list
Indium mining - why?
Buy up all the wire looms you can at a station - (min 5.5 million units worth to get going)
Station-tele to the next station and do the same until you have as many as you can hold, then go back to that first station.
Sell them all, and buy them back.
Go to the next station, sell them all and buy them back.
Each station your profit goes up (up to selling them causing a negative 81% value, then its the same each time)
Assuming random station economies, you should reach 100 million units in about 8 or 9 hops, which is less than 5 minutes.
An hour, you should be at the unit cap - half that if you're doing the warps to reach new stations.
i looooved it, thank you for spending your time on these and sharing! ^-^
Nice tips! Basebuilding was very glitchy on PS4 tonight. Cube rooms were not connecting. Even trying to install doors didn't allow me to enter into the cube rooms. Very strange, and randomly out of the blue...
Rather than a single super silo I like to take advantage of the way hills grow back to put all of my storage underground with a single pipe coming out for access
I wish the lockable/powered doors were still able to be put on regular walls. Dunno if my game is bugged or if they removed it but Im not able to do that in this update lol
Your videos are truly impressive man!
I'd like to know how to invert a triangular wall piece and place it alongside stairs. Why didn't they include pieces like that?
Thanks for the Compact Super-Silo, it is very helpful.
How do I enter the viewing sphere? Does it need power? I have a small moon base with some fantastic views and can’t find much information about it. Any help gratefully received!
I need a river going under that bridge you built! I need NMS to add rivers and make the water graphics better Immediately! NMS has some extreme potential to be the best game ever made, just need more things diversity in things to do, and also more ease of base building!
How do you elevate yourself so that you can build things high up like you did with the power generators? Whenever I build, I'm stuck on the ground.
11:18 You can save and reload and it'll be back to how you changed it. I had it happen to me, just reloaded and it's fine.
Step 1: Make Everything Square
Step 2: Don't look up how to base build, or the use of any components
Step 3: Just buy whatever tech you have the resources for, shove it in a room and attach a million electrical cables to everything.
Sorted
8:30 If you use your Base Camera View, hover about 50 u directly above where you want to build your stack of generators/extractors. Look DIRECTLY down. You will place each device precisely centered above the last one.
27:40 Isn’t “conduction by proximity” just the longer way of saying “induction”? 😂
Thanks for the hiding wire underground tip! I bored a tunnel like 400u to run one for my oxygen farm.

Hello, I’m having issues with EM generators and wires not connecting, or dropping connections. Have you had this at all? Have you come across any solutions. Thanks, great videos!
thanks sooo much for this! no more silo fields XD
Damn dude, this was great! Thanks for all the trap info, I bet DLX is going to try to trap the Gek. Peace!
Thanks for the video Xaine!
Hi Xaine! First off i really like your channel and all the effort you put in to help us all! Kuddo’s!!!
I have 3 questions,
1. How do i adjency glitch in om my PS4 (what are the buttons to push and in which order?
2. How can i expand my base borders so i can build further?
3. I have seen an older video and i think it was yours but i am not sure, it is about putting a sell/buy terminal into a buildingcube and make it snap into the side half of that cube. If it is yours could you give me a link because i can’t find it atm?
Thanks again and keep up the good work!
👊🏼💙✌🏼
Just a thought, but when your farm is on a high sentinel plaent...you could put a Silo underground so you can collect all your stuff without the Sentinels shooting at you :)
Is there any way to make a ramp so I can make an underground garage? Thanks! awesome video!
you do realise the strobe lighting only needs one inverter attach one powered wire to the input, then one wire to the light from the out put of the inverter, then take a wire back from the light to the modifier on the inverter still works less parts
Number 5 is cool to know as my current base is about 30u away from a portal so I might move it over a bit
