The new baddies look cool, cannot wait to mess with them.

That's right, negative one sentinel units in play.

Yes, this did have the predictable result of not allowing any additional Sentinels to spawn in and also locked me in the Sentinel "combat" state forever until I left the planet. Whereupon I was immediately jumped by a Sentinel capital ship which I summarily blew up.

I'm with the Vy'keen on this one, these guys need to go to hell already.

Or, day 34: The Gek have still not realized I am not one of them...

Here we go again...

For no particular reason I'm trying to work on maxing my Vy'keen milestones and as we all know, one of them requires destroying a lot of sentinel walkers.

Before anyone gets it twisted, this is not a whine about the supposed "difficulty" of fighting the Sentinels. Destroying them is actually trivial. I am a planetary catastrophe on legs; my riced out neutron cannon can destroy most types other than the laser dogs and the walkers with a single shot. Rather, here's what happens:

I can fight through the usual levels one, two, three, and four waves as usual with the typical escalation of units thrown at you. Wave 4 spawns one of the mini-walkers, which I blow up.

What usually happens (or used to happen) is that wave five would spawn a couple of laser dogs/quads, a bunch of various little flyers, and after a short delay one of the big bipedal walkers. You fight this guy, he blows up, and your wanted meter turns blue and the Sentinels are out of your face for 20 minut

I'm just starting out on the expedition and trying to visit all the starting planet's moons. This is being made more difficult by the number of bases in this system. I can't point my ship at one and see if it's temperate or if it's radioactive, or if it's frozen or so on. This is because I'm only given information about one base on each planet.

Is there a way to turn this off?

So, I'm doing the expedition and trying to not get irritated about it as is usual for me.

Unfortunately, the game isn't playing along with that. I'm on one of the moons of the starting gas giant. The paradise world. I'm trying to find all the animals so I can retrieve some things I actually like rather than the stating gear.

Most of the animals are aquatic so I jump into the water... I haven't tried finding fish in quite a few updates but it appears some of them spawned in a water-cave under the lake I found. I dig down and... the moment I enter any hole in the ground while underwater I'm returned to the surface.

This lake isn't deep so I'm fighting buoyancy the entire time but being snapped back to the surface doesn't seem like an intended behavior.

Because your faction standing in expeditions doesn't carry over to your main save, kill a bunch of frigates and freighters while in the expedition. Then transfer the tech modules back to your main save. Yoho

Assuming you end Expedition 17 with the Wraith as your ship, you can go to the Expedition terminal and copy the ship (in exchange for nanites) as per usual. The Wraith has a bunch of nice living ship modules on it.

Two options: store the modules and then salvage the ship; or store the ship in your hanger (so it isn't in your list of active ships). Then claim it again. Lather rinse repeat until you have enough upgrade modules for whatever you need.

You can also claim it from the Quicksilver terminal once.

I jumped around the rendezvous points without hitting the space station and forgot to take the pictures when playing earlier today. If I set my active quest to it, it says go to %planet% so I’m assuming this is a bug but I have no quest route in the galaxy map. I only visited the space station for the first rendezvous if that’s any help

Update: still no luck but looks like the rendezvous milestones autocompleted as I haven’t gotten to phase 5 rendezvous
