Ah thanks. My only issue is that alt-tabbing is broken in this game...
On another note, where do I go to find multi-tool upgrades ? I'm about 16 hours in the game and I still have 5 slots...

This is amazing.
Well I'm still looking for my 13th stupid fucking species that I've been searching all day so right now I'm walking in the general direction of the crashed ship to look for that dumb animal and I'm sure I'll eventuallly end up at an outpost with a pad so that I can recall my ship.

You'll definitely find more extreme planets with rare elements. I found one with vortex cubes and Calium, another with Radnox and Albumen Pearls.

You have to replace it with a new multi tool, you can't upgrade it. Aliens will offer you new ones sometimes or you can find them in buildings on the wall.

I find Emeril most places, but especially on toxic or radioactive planets. I rarely hold onto the stuff because it's generally easy to acquire, unlike, say Chrysonite. Damn you platinum, quit getting my hopes up!
And I was pretty shocked when I saw that guy too. I couldn't even remember seeing winged land creatures in pre-release footage/trailers actually flying. Only one I saw there, but I didn't scour every inch of the place.
It works if you change it to borderless (at least on my machine).
It's still a shame that fullscreen alt-tab breaks a game in 2016, but there is a workaround.
I actually found a way for it to work for me. If you alt-tab just launch it again on Steam and then click the NMS window that's already running and it opens back up. ymmv

my cake, fuck off
I was running around a super toxic planet collecting balls and my ship decided to float away. I chased after it for a bit, but it finally left the planet. Took me an hour to find a base to call it back. It was actually kind of fun. Broke up the grind.
Thanks guys, will try that.
I must have been *very* unlucky in regards to getting new multi tools... I just warped to a new system after having spent about 15 hours in the starting one. There goes hopping I find new stuff !
Oh cool ! Good to know ! Will definitely try that.

The systems on my path were already discovered, but he didn't land on any planets. Too bad for him. I found many interesting planets in those systems, some of my favorite so far.

Kinda pissed right now. Apparently there is a bug that some people are running into where new blueprints found show up as "already learned" even though you don't actually have them. I have this bug. I've found a few upgrade blueprints that I really need but I can't craft them.
You gotta learn that language.
They usually don't require language... unless the questions change due to language?
Outposts usually involve breaking into a building and then shutting down the security doesn't it? That involves knowing the language.
Ok, so quick three system check.
O6p - nothing special - planets with lots of fauna
O7pf - nothing special - planets with lots of fauna
Amount of fauna seems to be the key, not frequency. They all had 10 plus species.
O0pf - Extreme conditions and Vortex Cubes everywhere.
I guess the number 0-9 is related to conditions 0 being extreme heat and 9 being extreme cold. Sorry if this is all known. The fauna seems much more bizarre too.

I want to keep a log and document as much as possible about all of them.
Don't be sorry. It isn't.

Atlas is for reading fun flavor text. It has Zero impact. Core does. Minor.
Atlas first I guess as it's fast and you can do both.

Ffs. I'm like 30 hours in grinding the Atlas quest. I'll be burnt out before starting the game.

Language is only required if you activate a monolith trial or if you talk to a NPC.
Other than that it's not that important unless you're breaking an outpost door
<< that one is important

I have found the perfect planet. fields of green grass with red trees as far as the eye can see and an Ocean of Blue water.
Vortex Cubes dotting the landscape, and an abundance of Aqua Spheres in the water. Also Sentinels are docile.
I am bookmarking this place and making it my home planet. When the Base building patch comes out, I know exactly where I will build my first base.
I have named the solar system Archimedes, after the famed Mathematician, and each of the 5 planets in the Archimedes System are named after notable mountains.
Olympus, Everest, Fuji, Matterhorn, and Vesuvius.

If you just push shortcuts to the center over and over through black holes it'll take if you're unlucky about an entire day of warping to get to the core. An atlas pass will trivialize getting warp core fuel as it allows you to open debris containers that always have warp fuel mats

Went to my first red star. Maybe I just got lucky but after ten systems of barren planets and slightly less barren planets (they were still cool though) 2 of the planets here are really lush and both are unique. I'm starting to see bigger creatures as well. Really excited to see what the two better classes of star bring.
Make sure to search the outposts (they could also be at shelters also ) for a small cylindrical object sticking out of the ground that also requires a bypass chip...they are more common than landing pads for sure and work just as well.
edit : here it is..also check out my awesome ship!!

Its really cool to get a ship for free, but if nothing works it will take a long time to upgrade all the parts...so I haven't tried it for that reason. BUt if it is damaged do you basically still need to start from scratch with each material or do you get partial materials for each damaged slot? Trying to assess as my smaller ship with 18 slots is small, but looks cool and has a warp drive already that appears to have difficult to find components. I also have over 1.5 million and am still in my original system, and haven't found a ship in that price range that has a warp drive in addition to the standard hyperspace so I haven't traded up for slots and will keep my little bug looking ship despite low slots...it is the VW beetle of ships.
My first and only serious complaint about the game so far is that at the space station I wanted to see different ships, but often 3 and as many as 4 at once flew in to the port and were the exact same ship with the exact same alien inside...it really was a waste of time to wait for another ship to see a different one, only to have the same ship dock, even before one two or there replicas hadn't left yet. Wonder if it just wasn't possible to "balance" the AI without doing it that way or if it was a bug or whatever. I recall Murray saying it was hard to get the organic set of maths to compute together without "weird" things happening. Does he have a feedback board set up for this type of stuff?
Definitely excited to get playing tonight and finish off this moon's animals list..cant imagine what I missed having had to climb to the highest peak and upgrade my range window to plus three even to have a chance to get these flying creatures to register...they basically just play around high in the sky and never come down....I tried blasting them with the tool and grenades but to no avail...finally the upgrades luckily caught one but it was at least 5 minutes of pressing "F" for "fucking find the flying animal!" It feels like I definitely have seen the same creatures over and over and over again and wondering if what I need is ultra rare, if they program at least one extra rare creature per planet etc. or whether it was just bad luck so far.

10.9 sols in extreme conditions and counting. 100% on the planet and probably walked 20 km.
Any gameplay enhances worth rushing to the core for? Or slow and steady?
Looks great. I found a similar one except all the grass was purple. By the way, is there an actually way to bookmark a planet?

You can Bookmark a System. Fly into Space and highlight the current system you are in add a waypoint.
It will add a tab to your selectable paths for Galactic Travel, Setting a way point means you are given a path to always come back to the specific system you marked with that way point.

Eh rushing to the core isn't worth it IMO. It's not as impactful as you'd think. I wont spoiler it as you can google it but is disappointing. This game clearly wants you to know the reward is just playing. Also the only thing I would rush is an atlas pass as it gives you access to suit upgrades, warp mats and generally those two things accelerate your pace of travel and income quite a bit. Maybe a crashed ship for slots.
I love this. It's so weird that a black night sky is the exception- makes it all the more appreciable when you find one.This game is absolutely gorgeous:
Unfortunately, your current system is the only one you cannot set a waypoint on. But remember its relative location when you jump and you can set it immediately after reaching the new system.
edit: Or use the discoveries search

LOL, this game is so good.
I'm now on a fairly barren planet, but it has shelters, outposts, ruins, and drop pods everywhere. Lots of plutonium too, so I can just hop around and get unlimited blueprints.

I just found the best place to farm so far. It's nothing, but Sac Venom and there is even a trade depot so I don't have to leave the planet. I'm making about million every ten minutes. I'm going to stay here for a while and farm away!

Hm. Last place I was farming pearls. Then I moved on to this place where there are Vortex cubes everywhere.

Oh...Oh man. I need money. Glad I'm on my new home planet.
I was just on an expedition looting as many Vortex Cubes and Aqua Spheres I could find since my current world is filled with them and has docile Sentinels.
Soon as I cash in my rewards, this guy just shows up on the landing pad.
I need only another 17 Million....yeesh!

Haha. Same shit happened to me the other day. I bought a 31-slot, 6 million unit ship, then some other guy in the same model ship shows up with 46 slots, but at a cost of 50 million units.
Stop doing that shit right in front of them.
You gotta be smooth.
