Summary [ ]

Base building allows the histrion to build multiple bases, which tin be used for farming, storage and recharging Take a chance Protection or Shield. A limit of 400 bases has been reported. The game displays a generic "unsuitable location" error message in one case the limit has been reached. In that location is as well a limit of xvi,000 components per relieve and a 3,000 components upload limit per base. Bases which use more than 3,000 parts cannot be uploaded. Racetracks may also exist created and shared at a player base. Base edifice is available to all 4 Game modes currently offered in No Human being's Sky.

To create a base, merely place a Base of operations Computer (found under "Portable Technology") anywhere, use information technology to claim the territory, and first building.

Location Pick [ ]

In general, selecting a location for a base is not restricted, however the following should be considered on selecting a location for a base:

You cannot usually construct a base within 300u of another role player'due south base of operations (specifically ane that is previously uploaded to Hullo Games servers)
You tin can construct a base inside at to the lowest degree 200u (some reports are 300u) of a planetary Portal, but on upload, this base might non 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 research issue. This wipe happens hourly.
The base of operations perimeter starts out as 300u in every direction from the base of operations computer. This tin exist extended by 50u at a time, by placing objects at the electric current perimeter east.g. silos or batteries. You lot tin walk 1000u away from base computer by doing this, but walking further closes the build menu. At the 1000u point, you tin can open build camera to move an additional 50u & place as far as you tin can see from that indicate.₂
When considering Base of operations Computer 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 Cloud, and Deep-Level Mineral Deposits. From any given point, with extensions to 1050u, you tin reach up to 16 hotspots, which will often include at to the lowest degree one of each blazon: Power, Gas, Oxygen, Mineral one, Mineral 2, Mineral 3. What class they appear every bit notwithstanding is not a guarantee.
Alarm: In the result that a histrion does decide to go skyward and establish a base above the clouds with the assistance of another base (i,000 u direct in a higher place), it will permit the role player to claim the base of operations initially, just the next fourth dimension the player loads the salve, the new base of operations pieces will not appear and volition instead display as a base of operations icon with no style to delete it.

Base Construction [ ]

Run across Construction for a detailed description of construction data.

Base Editing [ ]

Editing a base tin can include removing a component or irresolute the colour scheme. To do either of these things, open the Build Card, and hold downwardly the left command central. This will bring up the post-obit two options:

Delete office: Aim at a base of operations component, or a component of some sort. Click to remove it. Removing a component will commonly refund the materials used (alternately, some components will be added to inventory every bit items instead), so this is helpful for relocating things. If a player removes a terminal and replaces it, the final employee will respawn with information technology. Note that components unable to be free-standing must be removed from an item before it can be deleted; i.e. a Landing Pad or Straight Corridor attached simply to a Cylindrical Room in mid-air must exist deleted earlier that Cylindrical Room tin be deleted.
Textile function: Browse through texture options (Wood, Concrete, Rust and Stone). Pressing "F"/left click (PC) to select the desired fabric will bring the histrion to a new option called Color. There are sixteen different options for colour schemes. The primary colour is mentioned start (large circle) and the secondary/accent colour is mentioned 2d (small circumvolve). Changing the color/material does not toll annihilation and tin be done every bit oftentimes as desired.

Base Deletion [ ]

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

Base Sharing [ ]

A thespian can cull to upload their base of operations to be discovered past other players. In order to do so, they must activate the Base Figurer, and choose the option to upload their base. Doing so will also salve the current state of terrain edits & mineral deposits.
Player bases are simply visible from the same Game fashion, although all uploaded discoveries, system and planet names are shared betwixt all modes & platforms.
Only one base per role player will be visible per planet or moon to other players who are non in a lobby with the base owner. The nearly recently uploaded base will exist the one that appears to other players. Uploading a unlike base on that planet or moon volition cause that base to appear instead of ane that previously appeared to others.
Only Communications Stations the player builds will be visible in other modes, even when built inside the base of operations (Message Modules are non) and Communication Stations cannot be deleted.

Meet the Thespian Base Catalogue for a list of shared bases. They tin can be visited using the respective coordinates on the Pilgrim Star Path website.

Base Components [ ]

There are a finite number of components that can exist initially used to construct a base of operations.

Those bachelor before the Side by side update are referenced on the Construction types folio.

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

Mission base components: the role player can unlock them for gratuitous every bit rewards for completing missions requested by employees
Buy component blueprints using Salvaged Information with a Construction Inquiry Unit.

Mission Rewarded Base Components [ ]

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

In the event that a player wants to motility bases, all they have to exercise is construct the respective terminals inside of their new base of operations. Hold the action primal (E for default on PC) and they'll announced. This tin can exist done without an issue and is cost costless. This means a thespian could take terminals at all the bases they build, and only "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 Structure Terminal equally shortly as possible. This will let the first gear up of missions to be issued by the Overseer (see Employees above). These missions will lead to all other terminals, the employees associated with those terminals, and hence unlocking additional missions that tin can add to the number of base components available for base building.

The post-obit blueprints are non available via Construction Research Unit and must exist unlocked via the Expanding the Base mission and information technology's related missions and are in order of obtained:

Overseer:
- Storage Container
- Scientific discipline Concluding
- Weapons Terminal
- Agricultural Terminal
- Galactic Trade Terminal
- Exocraft Terminal

Scientist:
- Big Refiner
- Salve Buoy
- Atmosphere Harvester
- Autonomous Mining Unit

Farmer:
- Hydroponic Tray
- Gutrot Flower (formerly Coprite flower)
- Frostwort
- Solar Vine
- Fungal Cluster
- Gamma Weed
- Gravitino Host
- Venom Urchin
- Albumen Pearl Orb
- Echinocactus
- Star Bramble
- Mordite Root

Exocraft Technician:
- Roamer Geobay
- Colossus Geobay
- Nomad Geobay

Using The Construction Research Unit [ ]

Boosted components can be unlocked at the Construction Enquiry Unit.

As the thespian buys/earns boosted components from diverse methods, and then the Construction Research Unit will unlock to let buy of additional related components; i.e walls with glass windows.

Salvaged Applied science can be obtained past scanning for Cached Engineering Modules with the Assay Visor and and so digging up the module with the Terrain Manipulator in one case the thespian is close enough. Opening them will requite the role player one to five Salvaged Technology and very rarely, two modules may spawn in the exact same spot.

Storage Containers [ ]

Storage Containers can be congenital for additional storage capacity. Each contains twenty slots with twice the capacity of a starship inventory slot, and upward to 10 can exist built. This provides the player with 200 additional inventory slots if they choose to build all the containers. The design for Storage Containers is given by the Overseer during their mission series. Containers may be recoloured or named in lodge to continue track of where resource are stored, and likewise contain an external number from zippo to ix. A histrion may build only one of each Storage Container, but they can exist built at any base they own, including aboard their freighter. Resources can exist teleported to storage from anywhere but they cannot be teleported back unless the thespian is actually in the base where the resource are stored (or the thespian has a freighter with affair beam and the appropriate containers in the organization).

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

Teleporters [ ]

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

Bugs [ ]

The Construction Research Unit of measurement's design isn't available to erstwhile saves before the i.53 patch
Some 'investigate building' missions may possibly exist bugged on planets with lots of water. The location may spawn under water and there may be no structure present. It is possible to receive new locations from the mission giver until a location is given on the surface.

Report Base of operations [ ]

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

Tips [ ]

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

Build a base farther away from the Base Computer equally teleporting to information technology may cause the role player's Starship to clip into their base if the Base of operations Computer is besides close to their base. Test where your send lands before building!
For optimal base building, bring large amounts of Ferrite Grit, Pure Ferrite, Magnetised Ferrite, Sodium, Chromatic Metal, Ionised Cobalt, Frost Crystals and Carbon; 3-4 stacks of each will exercise for a very small base simply yous will need more for a larger base and/or the Overseer mission and its related missions
- Carbon for Access Ramps, Interior Stairs and wooden components
- Chromatic Metallic for some of the NPC terminals, the Science Terminal requires Magnetised Ferrite, the Weapons Last likewise requires Pugneum, the Agronomical Terminal requires Condensed Carbon and the Exocraft Terminal likewise requires Di-hydrogen
- Ferrite Grit for Ladders and Solid Cubes
- Frost Crystals for components with glass, windows, Viewing Sphere and Bio-Dome (Drinking glass can be made from refining Silicate Dust which is gathered by using the Terrain Manipulator on any not-descript footing)
- Ionized Cobalt for Holo-Doors, Glass Cuboid Rooms, Curved Cuboid Roofs, Teleporters (which require Ion Batteries) and Health Stations (which also crave Metallic Plating and Uranium)
- Magnetised Ferrite for Storage Containers, Viewing Sphere, Bio-Dome
- Pure Ferrite for Infrastructure Ladders, Cuboid Rooms, Foursquare/Cubical Rooms, foundations, doors, corridors, etc
- Sodium for Lights and Storage Containers
Choosing a Star system with five to six planets may offering a more than diverse range of resource types without having to warp to other systems
Build well-nigh Resources Deposits to brand easier employ of the Democratic Mining Unit of measurement
Remember to build Temper Harvesters and Oxygen Harvesters to generate Radon, Sulphurine, Nitrogen and Oxygen depending on the Biome
Build almost water and caves for easier admission to Kelp Sac, Cobalt and Marrow Bulb
Resources respawn afterward leaving and returning to a base via Teleporter, only only if going to a different system
Some decoration items take functions, with the ability to restore Shields or Wellness, grow Carbon, get Warp Cells, etc
Build on a planet with no chancy weather (hot, cold, toxic, radiant, hostile sentinels ²), so you don't have to worry almost refueling or stabilizing Hazard Protection
While doing the Armourer'southward exocraft missions information technology is advantageous to cull a planet with open flat land and few hills/cliffs. (HINT: You tin can consummate 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 player wants to subcontract Gravitino Hosts naturally without planting them, it is required to be on an Extreme Watch planet
There are variety of Glitch techniques for base building. Some of these are described on the Glitch Building Techniques page.

Extending A Base of operations Radius [ ]

Sometimes a particular location is desired for artful or other reasons, but information technology is also desirable to access Hotspot resources 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 heart of the base), all the same it is possible to extend the range of a base of operations by over 3 times this to 1000u. To do this, the boundary must first exist unlocked past using a Relieve Betoken or Buoy inside your base then reloading that save. Adjacent, drop any base of operations building element (say a Storage Container or a Supply Depot or even a floor segment) at the edge of the base of operations boundary but inside the limits of the calculator range. This will extend the range by approximately another 30u from that location. This can be used to daisy concatenation up to 1000u from the original location allowing boosted hotspots to exist accessed from a specific base of operations location. Power and supply pipes of course will need to exist run to all these remote locations from the chief base site.

Retrieving A Pre-Side by side Base [ ]

An inactive Base Computer ready to merits.

If an older save is updated to the Adjacent version of No Man's Heaven (version one.five+), the player will spawn without their base. Follow these steps to become a previous base of operations dorsum:
1: Select the base building mission in Log. If the mission isn't selected, the base cannot be retrieved
two: Fly down to a planet'due south surface and employ the Scanner. Information technology volition locate a Base Computer. Fly to the location.
3: Activate the Base Computer and cull the option to retrieve the previous base of operations.
(annotation that these steps only work if the role player is using the experimental patch equally of i.52. If they do not take the patch, nothing will spawn, so not assuasive a player to recollect their Pre-NEXT base of operations)

Release history [ ]

Foundation - Introduced as new major component of the game.
Atlas Rises - The post-obit base of operations limitations existed:
- But sure locations were available for base edifice. These were marked by a circular structure, and represented an unclaimed base.
- A player was allowed to operate only one base of operations at a time. This was washed by entering the base of operations building and claiming information technology at the Terminal. If some other base was claimed, the first one disappeared.
- Habitable base locations were located by a number of different methods:
  - Finding them by exploring the planet surface.
  - Flight over a planet in a Starship.
  - Using a Starship's Scanner from space, sometimes a base will appear every bit a point of interest.
  - Beacons sometimes located habitable bases, but like using a Starship's Scanner, it was random.
  - Crafting a Signal Booster, then selecting Habitable Base from the list. A base on that planet would be located.
Side by side - Bases tin be created anywhere using a Base Reckoner, and the number of pieces a base tin can contain expanded tremendously.
Beyond - Power requirements for many base parts added.
Across 2.06B - Reduced maximum base node count to allow very large bases to load better.
Beyond 2.06D - Prepare to preclude issues with base buying.
Beyond 2.06G - Dynamically limit base building limits to allow some very big bases to load in more situations.
Beyond 2.09.1 - Adjusted base role information to better operation in big bases. Made player-buildable sofas sittable. Stock-still a crash that affected large bases.
Synthesis ii.20 - Storage containers now have twenty slots instead of v.
Frontiers - Hundreds of new base building parts added.
