Hi.

I'm trying to build container 1 on my freighter, after building it on my planetary base. The game tells me, that I can't build it on my freighter, because it is limited to one.

I can, though, build Storage Container 2 on my freighter, which I've also built on my planetary base.

Is this a known bug / glitch, and is there a workardound ?

Edit: 1.55, new save.

2nd edit: Reload, 'manual save', exiting and restarting the game yields no change. Not wanting to open a can of worms, alas, I feel like HG were carelessly breaking the games balancing, and now are, instead of taking the lead in changes, letting themselves being haunted --- responding by extending real-time delays to slow players down, instead of responding with a re-balance. Heck. I opened the can :)

I have the same issue as you. I can't build container 1 on a new base in another system. But I can build 0,2,3,4,5...

Did you find a solution?

The bug seems to be quite popular. There's even a mod for supposedly fixing it, named 'Container 1 - Fix'. I have not tried it, since I don't have an account with nexusmods.

https://www.nexusmods.com/nomanssky/mods/747

Also, a redditor posted some manual fix for it involving editing your savegame, but that didn't work for me: https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/96iop1/bug_workaround_for_storage_container_1_limited_to/

I'll quote u/gsamelon's post here: I only have a single instance of CONTAINER1 in my savegame, not multiple ones, so I wasn't surprised, that the manual fix didn't work for me.

To add insult to injury, I can't build Storage Continer 8 at all.

On top of that, I got a duplication glitch, where under certain ciscumstances adjacend slot contents will be copied over to a Stroage Container, without removing the original source.

Yea I get the same dupe glitch and sometimes I cant get stuff from row two .
Annoying but hey that's how Alphas work ;-).

Above linked mod in Nexus can fix container 1 bug indeed. Making account in NExus is free and it has a lot mods for many different games, so I can't see any reason not to make account there.

There are basically 2 typos in config file, disabling nr1 container placement into world more than once, while all others are allowed to be placed once per base.

As there's many diferent weird choices with storage containers (can't place on base floor, can't make 2x2 stacks, messed container nr1 etc) and also weird restrictions and collision problems with some terminals, no possibility to pick up certain harvesters.. then in end I had to make those changes myself, even if I just stared with container nr1 fix :o

Silly question, but you all add a report of this at https://hellogames.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new right?
It will be more likely to get fixed if lot's of people report it.

I do, if I am able to somehow reproduce it, or at least remember the steps, which lead to this.

I think this particular problem supossedly got adressed in the upcoming patch. I'll post back, if it works for me, once I get and have the patch installed.

Just tried building Storage Container 1 on my freighter after a clean install of 1.57. Works for me now, and contents seem to be properly mirrored in its planetary twin.

In other news, we seem to have gotten back the pre-NEXT current system information display after jumping or using a terminus to a space station. That's a very welcome one :)

Would you care to share what you did and why ? Storage Container 1 was fixed for me in 1.57, but I'm always interested in gaining some more insight. Also, others may run into the troubles you faced, and whatever you did might prove helpful to them.

My post was made before they fixed container nr1 ;) This bug lasted through several patches, so I tried to find a solution. After looking BASEBUILDINGTABLE.MBIN file I noticed how easy is to make several quality of life changes for myself. For example.... why can you pick up most of machines but not O2Harvester, Autominer or Atmosphere Harvester? What magic forbids you placing air harvesters on top of your base roof? Why are decorative crates listed under storage menu (you can't store anything into those boxes)? Why storage containers allow only one way stacking - all vertically or all horisontally but not for 3x3? Why can't I place storage containers on normal floor tiles in my base? Why you can place only one terminal into square room, you could clearly fit four?

So I just ended up making changes what I personally found illogical and unreasonable.
https://github.com/monkeyman192/MBINCompiler/releases is very useful for decompiling and recompiling mbin files and https://github.com/periander/PSArcTool helps you to extract and build pak files.

Or if you're just interested my personal changes, you can just PM me.

Really? "That's how Alphas work?" The game had a full release 2 years ago, how is it now an alpha? Lot of people think that way, it's not an alpha, and shouldn't have the massive amount of bugs it has.

Yea Dude exactly, I know that.
So sad it was irony, but your point is valid.

cheers
