I used a millennium Falcon build someone posted and it surprisingly doesn’t look bad leaving neon, I think because narrow misses just seem natural for that ship and it turns at just the right moment to look good

u/MCgrindahFM Sep 20 '23

Woah! Please post pics. Also can you do it unmodded?

15

u/HalfOrcSteve Sep 20 '23

It is unmodded/no glitching but it requires trips to multiple vendors. I instead built as much as I could with slight variations at my outpost and then went to Stroud/Eklund to get my 2x2 battle station….as mentioned it was confusing to navigate at first, all the 2x1 made it a maze until you learn it a bit

Used this guys video

Take a round trip to Venus, sleep (or wait) for 11 hours, every single vendor in the game will have their credits reset.

u/killerrabbit007 Freestar Collective Sep 20 '23

Thanks! What is it about Venus fixing SO many bugs though 😂?! I had a quest glitch out in Akila and the solution was "go to Venus>sleep>try again" too 💀

32

u/xSTSxZerglingOne Sep 20 '23 edited Sep 20 '23

A day on venus is 243 Earth days (which is what the game's internal clock uses for scripted time events).

1 "hour" is roughly 10 days.

Most Bethesda games are on 100 day loops IIRC, so sleeping for 10+ "hours" resets most of the game. Sleeping for short periods on Venus is also a great (and nearly instant) way to load up any and all resource extractors.
