No Man's Sky | Tips & Tricks | How to Build - Simple & Efficient Open Concept Freighter

Today we're going to do some base building on the freighter, showcasing how I build my open concept freighter base. It's a very basic build consisting of a simple build layout, and we will only need to spend a few Salvaged Frigate Module to get the rooms we need to build. We're going to want to be able to build the following rooms: Technology Room (Expansion), Planetary Probe room, Galactic Trade room, Teleport Chamber, and the Fleet Command Room. Some of these we start with for getting a freighter, so not all will need to be purchased. All freighters should probably also have Storage Containers installed, but we showcase keeping them separate from the the main area and keeping different sections as their own open concept area.

You have NO IDEA how much peace and harmony you've brought to me and my son with this video. We fought like hell over this and wasted time and got angry. And you've showed us a better way!!! Thank you!

Yupp, the right way! 😊 That's how I set up all my frighters in all of my saves. I hate corridor bumps, they make me feel lost in my own freighter.

This helped SO much! I had an old layout and had rebuilt it a few days ago, but the corridors were confusing AF. Now I have a pristine layout. Thank you for explaining why the different rooms wouldn't connect and leave all those doorways. Corridor breaks ftw.

Finally! Somebody who made a tutorial for this!

[dennispoledna]

You put together a set of tips and techniques that will save folks a lot of frustration. Wish you'd been around when I made my first freighter build and managed to wall off my teleporter in a blind cell. I had no idea how to fix it so a new save.

glad i watchd this before trying to build anything in my freighter

I've long contemplated doing a video on this.. glad to see in comments people benefitted from this..
I often put off making them when I see others have done it... this was NEEDED by look of it.
NOW I'm hesistant lol...
Glad to see you covered the OPEN ROOM thing too, seen MANY comments on videos about this, will help many out.

Always a joy seeing channels help people out with tips and tricks.

EXCELLENT tutorial and a perfect layout for me as well as I tend to build with pure function in mind. The best takeaway for me was the creative use of the build camera and that has already saved me when I fell through a gap on my freighter and was able to build my way back into the base (I just discovered the option in the setup menu to teleport myself back into the freighter today).

Thx. That Looks good. I get lost often because i never did an actual Layout but Just added more rooms without a concept.

One way you can quickly visually make the entrance to your freighter distinctive is to use colors. For instance, my "theme" on my S-Class Dreadnaught is the Black and Gold color for all the rooms, halls, etc. However, the door/hall to the freighter I color a very visually different Red and White to make it instantly apparent that this way leads to the bridge. You can also use decorations, labels, etc. in similar fashion to make the accessway to the ship very noticeable! Great tips!

Wow so helpful, just found your channel, subscribed 👌🏻🙏

[neargrog]

Ngl took couple tries but I now have this setup & it’s a lot nicer than all those pesky maze-like pillars. Thanks buddy!

[sharonj]

Thank you Lee. I really like your layout. I'm anxious to see where you put your agricultural rooms. I have some work to do. LOL thanks again

[designdeity]

This is brilliant and I copied it exactly. With my remaining room I put in a refiner room and a lounge for chilling. Thank you!

[zerogiven]

Thank you for this. It makes for a very clean design as you said without building a maze.

[Schiejeven]

Make use of the color sheme you have, pretty easy if you know what color goes with what utility.
Placing tranporters above each other for easy use.
Use posters on the floor to make waypoints helps too.

[raphaelsilva]

Great vid man! There's so many things i wanna build in nms.... A frigate base is one

[justinace]

Thank god for you brother lmao hated getting turned around in my own freighter

[dieulme]

Love the concept, really nice idea to have all the important stuff right at the entrance. I did set up my freighter somewhat similar, but still needed to use a few corridors to get to certain rooms.

[nufinul]

I also like to color the technology rooms a different color so it does have a corridor feeling, and makes navigating inside the freighter easier.
