OK, unfortunately it looks like this issue has gone from kind of annoying to game breaking. I can no longer be at my base for long without the game locking up. Maybe it's an unrelated defect and just a coincidence, but maybe not. ๐

What's funny is since posting this, two more people have built bases on top of mine. ๐
On the one hand, being in a secluded system by yourself means stuff like this doesn't happen. On the other hand, it's generally more fun to have people around in a multiplayer game. Trade-offs, I guess. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Agreed. If they can't catch overlapping bases up front because of connectivity issues, some sort of cleanup process would make sense. Check the timestamps of Base Computer placement or Upload; the first one wins and the others get deleted. Parts from deleted bases show up in the Base Salvage Capsule like normal.
Is there any reason to do it if you have already done Expedition 2? Any new rewards that weren't in the original? I haven't heard of anything.
If I remember correctly, once I finished the final battle the ship automatically landed nearby, ready to be claimed. I don't think I even claimed it in the Expedition tab before it happened. I know I wouldn't have had 1400 nanites.
It's possible you missed the ship or that the expedition glitched. The bug might have gotten patched in an update but it didn't matter to you because your game had already converted to Normal. Poking around Reddit, it sounds like others had similar problems claiming the ship.
Within the Expedition, you will get the ship as part of the storyline for free. If you go to the Quicksilver vendor to try to claim it, it will take nanites.
Assuming they upload their base, you can visit it without them being online. If they are online you can visit their bases that aren't uploaded.
Yes, you can encounter people outside of the Anomaly, assuming you have Multiplayer enabled.
When you start a new save, there are different game types you can choose like Creative, Suvival, and Expedition. They each have their own rules and settings. In this case when I say Normal, I mean the default game type and specifically not an Expedition.
I've literally killed around 3 dozen. Nothing so far. I just wish I knew I wasn't wasting my time.
Yeah. I do think it's odd that Sentinel tools have 2 fixed versions while other types of tools have procedural variability.
