Summary [ ]

A thespian created base of operations - Keeper Base

Base building allows the player to build multiple bases, which can be used for farming, storage and recharging Adventure Protection or Shield. A limit of 400 bases has been reported. The game displays a generic "unsuitable location" mistake message once the limit has been reached. There is likewise a limit of 16,000 components per save and a 3,000 components upload limit per base. Bases which use more than 3,000 parts cannot exist uploaded. Racetracks may besides be created and shared at a player base. Base building is available to all four Game modes currently offered in No Man'due south Sky.

To create a base, simply identify a Base Estimator (found nether "Portable Technology") anywhere and start building.

Location Choice [ ]

In full general, selecting a location for a base is not restricted, however the post-obit should exist considered on selecting a location for a base:

  • You lot cannot normally construct a base of operations inside 300u of some other player'south base (specifically one that is previously uploaded to How-do-you-do Games servers)
  • Y'all tin can construct a base of operations within at least 200u (some reports are 300u) of a planetary Portal, merely on upload, this base might not exist visible to other players.
  • How-do-you-do Games regularly wipes bases built on weekly Community Research mission target sites for investigation, if constructed during the community inquiry event. This wipe happens hourly.
  • The base perimeter starts out as 300u in every management from the base computer. This can exist extended by 50u at a fourth dimension, by placing objects at the electric current perimeter e.g. silos or batteries. You can walk 1000u away from base computer by doing this, just walking farther closes the build bill of fare. At the 1000u bespeak, yous tin can open build photographic camera to move an additional 50u & identify as far as you tin see from that indicate.ii
  • When because Base Reckoner placement, you should consider the availability of Hotspots for nearby resources (within 300u or 1050u if you extend your base) such as Electromagnetic Ability Hotspot, Concentrated Gas Deject, and Deep-Level Mineral Deposits. From any given point, with extensions to 1050u, you can reach upwardly to 16 hotspots, which volition often include at least ane of each type: Power, Gas, Oxygen, Mineral 1, Mineral 2, Mineral iii. What class they appear as withal is non a guarantee.
  • WARNING: In the issue that a player does decide to go skyward and found a base above the clouds with the help of some other base of operations (ane,000 u directly above), it will allow the player to claim the base initially, merely the adjacent fourth dimension the role player loads the save, the new base of operations pieces will not announced and will instead display as a base icon with no manner to delete it.

Base Structure [ ]

See Structure for a detailed clarification of construction information.

Base of operations Editing [ ]

Editing a base can include removing a component or irresolute the colour scheme. To practise either of these things, open the Build Carte, and concur downwards the left control cardinal. This will bring upward the following 2 options:

  • Delete function: Aim at a base of operations component, or a component of some sort. Click to remove it. Removing a component will usually refund the materials used (alternately, some components will be added to inventory equally items instead), then this is helpful for relocating things. If a role player removes a terminal and replaces information technology, the last employee will respawn with it. Note that components unable to exist gratuitous-continuing must be removed from an item before it can be deleted; i.e. a Landing Pad or Straight Corridor attached but to a Cylindrical Room in mid-air must exist deleted earlier that Cylindrical Room can be deleted.
  • Material function: Browse through texture options (Forest, Physical, Rust and Stone). Pressing "F"/left click (PC) to select the desired material will bring the player to a new selection chosen Color. There are sixteen different options for colour schemes. The primary colour is mentioned first (large circumvolve) and the secondary/accent colour is mentioned second (small circle). Changing the colour/material does not cost anything and tin can be done as often as desired.

Base Deletion [ ]

If a role player chooses the "Delete Base of operations" option in the Base Computer, all components in the base edifice area will exist instantly erased and added to the Base Relieve Sheathing. Once a actor tin build the capsule, a percentage of the materials from their deleted bases tin can be recovered.

Base Sharing [ ]

  • A player can choose to upload their base to be discovered by other players. In order to do so, they must actuate the Base Computer, and choose the option to upload their base. Doing and then will also save the current state of terrain edits & mineral deposits.
  • Thespian bases are just visible from the same Game mode, although all uploaded discoveries, system and planet names are shared between all modes & platforms.
  • Only i base of operations per player will be visible per planet or moon to other players who are not in a vestibule with the base owner. The most recently uploaded base will be the i that appears to other players. Uploading a different base on that planet or moon will cause that base to appear instead of 1 that previously appeared to others.
  • Only Communications Stations the player builds will exist visible in other modes, even when built inside the base (Message Modules are not) and Advice Stations cannot be deleted.

Run across the Role player Base Catalogue for a listing of shared bases. They can be visited using the respective coordinates on the Pilgrim Star Path website.

Base Components [ ]

In that location are a finite number of components that tin be initially used to construct a base of operations.

  • Those available before the Side by side update are referenced on the Structure types page.

It is possible to increment the multifariousness of components in 2 ways:

  • Mission base of operations components: the actor can unlock them for free equally rewards for completing missions requested past employees
  • Purchase component blueprints using Salvaged Information with a Construction Research Unit.

Mission Rewarded Base of operations Components [ ]

A base provides a home location for a role player's NPCs Employees. These can be recruited from Infinite Stations to fill their respective terminals that a player can install in their base. They then send the player to perform certain tasks to unlock new blueprints, such every bit Exocraft bays, Haz-Mat Gauntlet and the Avant-garde Mining Laser. The five types are Overseer, Scientist, Armourer, Farmer, and Technician. Each type will require a specialized terminal to be built before they tin be hired. Doors count base NPCs equally entities and so if a NPC is close to a normal door, normal doors volition stay perpetually open unless the NPC is moved farther away from the door.

In the event that a actor wants to move bases, all they have to do is construct the respective terminals within of their new base of operations. Hold the activeness fundamental (E for default on PC) and they'll appear. This tin be done without an issue and is cost complimentary. This means a player could have terminals at all the bases they build, and merely "call" the needed employee when they have the needed materials for their mission or to begin generating their mission structures closer to a base on newly discovered planets.

The player should build a Construction Terminal as presently as possible. This will allow the commencement set up of missions to be issued past the Overseer (see Employees above). These missions will lead to all other terminals, the employees associated with those terminals, and hence unlocking boosted missions that can add to the number of base components available for base of operations building.

The following blueprints are non available via Construction Research Unit and must be unlocked via the Expanding the Base of operations mission and it's related missions and are in order of obtained:

  • Overseer:
    • Storage Container
    • Science Final
    • Weapons Terminal
    • Agricultural Terminal
    • Galactic Trade Terminal
    • Exocraft Terminal
  • Scientist:
    • Large Refiner
    • Relieve Buoy
    • Temper Harvester
    • Autonomous Mining Unit of measurement
  • Farmer:
    • Hydroponic Tray
    • Gutrot Flower (formerly Coprite flower)
    • Frostwort
    • Solar Vine
    • Fungal Cluster
    • Gamma Weed
    • Gravitino Host
    • Venom Urchin
    • Albumen Pearl Orb
    • Echinocactus
    • Star Brier
    • Mordite Root
  • Exocraft Technician:
    • Roamer Geobay
    • Colossus Geobay
    • Nomad Geobay

Using The Structure Inquiry Unit [ ]

Additional components can exist unlocked at the Structure Research Unit.

As the histrion buys/earns boosted components from various methods, then the Structure Research Unit will unlock to allow purchase of boosted related components; i.due east walls with glass windows.

Salvaged Technology tin can be obtained by scanning for Buried Technology Modules with the Analysis Visor and then digging upward the module with the Terrain Manipulator once the player is close enough. Opening them will give the player one to five Salvaged Technology and very rarely, two modules may spawn in the exact same spot.

Storage Containers [ ]

Storage Containers tin be built for additional storage capacity. Each contains xx slots with twice the capacity of a starship inventory slot, and upward to 10 can be congenital. This provides the player with 200 additional inventory slots if they choose to build all the containers. The blueprint for Storage Containers is given past the Overseer during their mission series. Containers may be recoloured or named in club to keep rails of where resources are stored, and also incorporate an external number from zero to nine. A player may build only one of each Storage Container, but they can be built at any base they own, including aboard their freighter. Resources can be teleported to storage from anywhere only they cannot be teleported back unless the player is actually in the base where the resources are stored (or the histrion has a freighter with matter beam and the appropriate containers in the system).

Storage containers are shared across all bases, making resource retrievable at any location, every bit long as the container is built in the local base of operations or on the players' Freighter.

Teleporters [ ]

Creating a base allows the role player to build a Base Teleport Module, which tin can instantly transport the player to their other bases. It can besides teleport to previous locations that have been activated, like Space Stations or other players' bases.

Bugs [ ]

  • The Construction Inquiry Unit's blueprint isn't available to old saves before the 1.53 patch
  • Some 'investigate building' missions may mayhap be bewitched on planets with lots of water. The location may spawn nether water and there may exist no structure nowadays. Information technology is possible to receive new locations from the mission giver until a location is given on the surface.

Report Base of operations [ ]

If you go trapped in someone'south base of operations or the Base has an offensive build, go into build mode (Z), bring up the wiring/color/delete menu, and pick Report Base to hide it from your game.

Tips [ ]

Bases should be built in a strategic location if possible to facilitate farming and completing missions:

  • Build a base further away from the Base Reckoner as teleporting to it may cause the actor's Starship to clip into their base of operations if the Base Computer is likewise close to their base. Test where your ship lands earlier building!
  • For optimal base building, bring large amounts of Ferrite Dust, Pure Ferrite, Magnetised Ferrite, Sodium, Chromatic Metal, Ionised Cobalt, Frost Crystals and Carbon; 3-4 stacks of each will do for a very modest base just you lot will need more for a larger base and/or the Overseer mission and its related missions
    • Carbon for Admission Ramps, Interior Stairs and wooden components
    • Chromatic Metal for some of the NPC terminals, the Science Terminal requires Magnetised Ferrite, the Weapons Terminal also requires Pugneum, the Agricultural Terminal requires Condensed Carbon and the Exocraft Terminal as well requires Di-hydrogen
    • Ferrite Grit for Ladders and Solid Cubes
    • Frost Crystals for components with drinking glass, windows, Viewing Sphere and Bio-Dome (Glass tin can exist made from refining Silicate Dust which is gathered by using the Terrain Manipulator on any non-descript ground)
    • Ionized Cobalt for Holo-Doors, Glass Cuboid Rooms, Curved Cuboid Roofs, Teleporters (which require Ion Batteries) and Wellness Stations (which as well require Metal Plating and Uranium)
    • Magnetised Ferrite for Storage Containers, Viewing Sphere, Bio-Dome
    • Pure Ferrite for Infrastructure Ladders, Cuboid Rooms, Square/Cubical Rooms, foundations, doors, corridors, etc
    • Sodium for Lights and Storage Containers
  • Choosing a Star organisation with five to 6 planets may offer a more than diverse range of resources types without having to warp to other systems
  • Build almost Resource Deposits to make easier use of the Democratic Mining Unit
  • Recall to build Atmosphere Harvesters and Oxygen Harvesters to generate Radon, Sulphurine, Nitrogen and Oxygen depending on the Biome
  • Build near water and caves for easier access to Kelp Sac, Cobalt and Marrow Bulb
  • Resource respawn after leaving and returning to a base via Teleporter, but only if going to a different arrangement
  • Some decoration items have functions, with the ability to restore Shields or Wellness, grow Carbon, get Warp Cells, etc
  • Build on a planet with no hazardous conditions (hot, cold, toxic, radiant, hostile sentinels 2), and so you don't have to worry nigh refueling or stabilizing Run a risk Protection
  • While doing the Armourer's exocraft missions it is advantageous to choose a planet with open flat land and few hills/cliffs. (HINT: You can complete them using your Starship to accomplish the locations, rather than your Exocraft) The presence of numerous animals. pillars, or trees, also interferes with exocraft missions. Some base missions are easier when the planet is not deserted and various buildings are close by.
  • If a thespian wants to subcontract Gravitino Hosts naturally without planting them, it is required to exist on an Extreme Scout planet
  • In that location are variety of Glitch techniques for base building. Some of these are described on the Glitch Building Techniques page.

Extending A Base Radius [ ]

Extending A Base Range

Sometimes a particular location is desired for artful or other reasons, but information technology is also desirable to access Hotspot resource that may not be convenient to access from the preferred location.

The normal base computer radius is 300u from the base computer (which is the center of the base of operations), however information technology is possible to extend the range of a base by over three times this to 1000u. To do this, the boundary must commencement be unlocked by using a Save Point or Buoy inside your base of operations then reloading that save. Next, drib any base edifice chemical element (say a Storage Container or a Supply Depot or even a floor segment) at the edge of the base boundary merely within the limits of the computer range. This volition extend the range by approximately another 30u from that location. This can be used to daisy chain upwards to 1000u from the original location allowing additional hotspots to be accessed from a specific base of operations location. Power and supply pipes of grade volition need to be run to all these remote locations from the chief base site.

Retrieving A Pre-NEXT Base [ ]

An inactive Base Computer set to claim.

If an older save is updated to the Next version of No Man's Sky (version 1.5+), the player will spawn without their base. Follow these steps to become a previous base dorsum:
ane: Select the base edifice mission in Log. If the mission isn't selected, the base of operations cannot be retrieved
2: Fly down to a planet's surface and apply the Scanner. It volition locate a Base Computer. Fly to the location.
three: Activate the Base of operations Computer and choose the option to retrieve the previous base of operations.
(annotation that these steps only work if the player is using the experimental patch as of i.52. If they practice not take the patch, naught will spawn, so not allowing a player to recollect their Pre-NEXT base of operations)

Release history [ ]

  • Foundation - Introduced as new major component of the game.
  • Atlas Rises - The following base limitations existed:
    • Only certain locations were bachelor for base edifice. These were marked by a circular structure, and represented an unclaimed base.
    • A player was allowed to operate merely one base at a time. This was done past entering the base of operations building and claiming information technology at the Final. If another base of operations was claimed, the kickoff one disappeared.
    • Habitable base locations were located by a number of dissimilar methods:
      • Finding them past exploring the planet surface.
      • Flying over a planet in a Starship.
      • Using a Starship'south Scanner from space, sometimes a base will appear as a point of interest.
      • Beacons sometimes located habitable bases, simply like using a Starship's Scanner, it was random.
      • Crafting a Signal Booster, then selecting Habitable Base of operations from the list. A base on that planet would exist located.
  • Adjacent - Bases can be created anywhere using a Base of operations Figurer, and the number of pieces a base can comprise expanded tremendously.
  • Beyond - Power requirements for many base parts added.
  • Beyond 2.06B - Reduced maximum base of operations node count to let very large bases to load ameliorate.
  • Beyond two.06D - Fix to prevent issues with base ownership.
  • Beyond 2.06G - Dynamically limit base building limits to allow some very large bases to load in more situations.
  • Across 2.09.ane - Adapted base role data to better performance in large bases. Fabricated player-buildable sofas sittable. Stock-still a crash that affected large bases.
  • Synthesis ii.20 - Storage containers at present have xx slots instead of 5.
  • Frontiers - Hundreds of new base building parts added.
