Thanks to your guide and extreme luck I found hotspots 280 apart within 5 minutes of landing. Unluckily it's a extreme planet with firestorms, but hey, my wood cabins don't burn.

Thank you Jason for the tutorials. Being a noob, I need all the help I can get. Keep up the great work!

Just started playing NMS last weeknd. These type of guides are exactly what I need! Can't thank you enough for your efforts teaching newer players the basic mechanics and inner workings of this incredible game. Keep up the great work!

I tried taking a shot every time he said, "boom". Now, I'm dead.

Hey, just wanted to thank you for this great tutorial. I followed it almost step-by-step to make an Activated Indium mine. I found an S-Class mining spot and a power source nearby, and am raking in money. I owe you a beer, my friend!!

I found a planet with activated indium yesterday so I really needed this tutorial to build a farm. Thank you so much for this Jason! I'll be rich because of you now! :)

You can extend you base area if you place some base pieces like a flag at edge of your base

Finally, someone who can actually make a actual tutorial, thank you this helped a lot

I wish the game instructed you on this via your base NPC's, I've been trying to figure this shit out for ages. Thanks Jason, great help mate.

You do know that you can now flatten the terrain with the geo function on your multitool? It now has mine, create, flatten and restore.

Did you know when you want to craft multiple items such as metal plating, you can use R1 (PlayStation) in your crafting section to craft higher amounts.

For me what to unlock: 1:50 Scanner: 3:04 How to use scanner: 6:15

When I draw the power line I build electricity polls. I usually do this in wood. I take 1 short wooden wall 2 thin wooden walls and then 2 wooden half arcs on the side pointing outwards. Then I put some lights on the sides that I can attach the cable to. That way I can easily follow the lines and you see them in the dark too :D

Heads up about the blue crashed S hauler from about 1 month ago. On xbox some jerk built a metal box around it. You can stil get to it if u dig because he missed one spot so go get it while you can.

I'm new to the game (I started when the Beyond update released). The first blue star I went to I found an Activated Indium planet. The first place I landed I found an Electromagnetic hotspot. I circled around the hotspot and found a S rated Activated Indium hotspot about 400 u away. How lucky am I? Thanks Jason, your videos have helped this noob.

I stumbled on here by chance, and let me tell you; I'm glad I did. I love everything about video; the quality, your narration and explanation. You really made it easy to understand. This game is awesome, you're awesome. Thank you.

Thanks for the video man, wow you spent a couple of hours looking for the right hot spot. Man, the work you guys put into these videos. Thank you, this video definitely will make it easier for me too make a farm.

Holy shit this guys charisma is off the charts. You could talk to me about a Roth IRA in russian and I would still be on cloud 9. Amazing video keep up the great work. "So I'll Split The Difference", this is how I think a all powerful being would talk, then again you are the all powerful being of No Man's Sky (says my google search results). If I didn't play this game I would probably still watch this.

Got the game a year or two ago and got bored not knowing what to do, got back on with my gf and your tutorials have been so helpful i might start playing it alot

Jason love your vids. When you select the the supply depot, if you read the top of the screen it says “Deploys stored power when grid demand is high.” So it might be worth connecting them to the power supply. 😀

Hey man, thank you for the video! Building mineral farms is fun and relaxing. Since watching this, I've built 4 bases mining Activated Indium and making over $17mil per hour, or $415mil per day. There were definitely some lessons learned with respect to base complexity and diminishing returns when adding more extractors. I'd share a picture with you of my latest base but I'm not sure how to do that lol. Anyway, thanks again!

Great tutorial really informative I like how you don’t cut the video when running to certain places and instead speed up the footage as this means I can follow exactly where you are going , great vid

Deposits can be very close to each other. If you spend enough time roaming a planet, you can have your electromagnetic and another one with 400u of each other, and sometimes a third one within 4 or 500u as well. So with a single base at the center you have your power source and you can get two different metals at once. Just build storage and cabling to go to your base and with one teleportation you get both metals at once. So far, built bases for: - activated indium (because fun) - phosphorus - ammonia and oxygen - uranium - dioxide Next will be: - rusted metal - Gold (nanite farming) - Silver (nanite farming) What else would you recommend Jason?

Just a heads up: Ground flattened by using base parts tends to come back over time. You might return to find your extractors underground.

I love how detailed your videos are, other people skip so much stuff such as the blueprints and the scanners and all that stuff.

Ive got a nice little Indium mine running on my system with 8 extractors and 10 storage, mines around 12000 an hour. Its a nice little earner and i unlocked loads of system to help with the stock market crash everytime i sell :)

Thanks Jason! It's been really hard for me to find power sources, so I hope that's something they fix in the update. No shortage of mineral and gas sites, however. :/ But I've found harvesting oxygen on planets with no ready carbon sources has proven to be really useful.

It's nice to see people that had the same idea as I when its about building mineral farm bases. There is this one that i got a eletric so far away, that I actually made a huge over the hill wire connection. My next attempty will be build the extractor far and the silos close to the main base.

You CAN place farming stuff on floors/platforms. The trick is to lay down electrical wire. Then place the Silos/Extractors on the wire. This also helps you line them up perfectly.

Thanks! I got sick of guessing what everything did from it's description, and this explained everything. Awesome.

Farm gold and silver to make plat, combine plat, gold, and silver in a large refiner and you get 400 nanites per 9999 platinum. Maybe not the best way to make nanites but still a decent passive method.

Loving this video. After watching a differnt video first I actually messed up so right now im watching this and learning what iv done wrong and slowly fixing my mistake

Love the Boom everytime he made something

Thanks man, this helped alot! I REALLY needed to learn this but had trouble finding someone that actually described it good 👌 noticed you are playing on xbox so im following you and hope for more. 😁👌

4 years later and still such a big help!

I haven’t played this game in so long! Glad that you’re making these videos, it’s making me want to start playing again lol. Thank you for the in-depth tutorials, very informative and helpful! Cheers.

I'm farming on an S Classic activated indium underground deposit and you can make hundreds of millions a day with it

I feel like I went a bit over board with mine. I have a s class activated indium with 40,000 per hour and I have a total storage of 250k

It is definitely worth farming oxygen so that you can make pretty much infinite chlorine. It sells for a lot and only requires a medium refiner to mass produce it. I managed to find a large oxygen field near enough a electromagnetic power area and was able to make more money than I would ever need. Which you can then use to buy whatever other material you might need.

Thanks a tonb I found an S class Electromagnetic Field 368 Units away from an A class Copper deposite after only 2hours of searching! Time to go build!

Yesterday, i found a gold and silver depot and not to forget an Activated Indium depot. Ty cause didnt know activated stuff exist. I was rich but now im super rich.

Found a S class Activated Indium today :) I put 6x Extractors on it and it give me 3670/hrs! Seriously those Supply Depot need to give more then 1000 storages, because if I want to log just once a day then I have to make like 80x Supply Depots if I want to maximize my profit! They should at least store 5000 each!

Yip coffee+your tutorials=😃. Keep the intro please. Looking forward to the next one Jason👍🏼.

Thanks Jason for another great tutorial 👍 Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦

Best tutorial yet.been gone from this game too long,and you my boy have made it easier to get back into.good job and keep up the good work

This is the best way to make money 100% ... i have a farm producing over 200,000 Activated Indium every 2 hours .. Sells at 204m every 2 hours lol ... and i could double that if i put more Extractors/storage in ... but literally no need too

"There is no limit to the amount of joints you can have" Wise words

Jason: *runs into his base computer and gets hurt* Jason: "Did my computer just punch me in the face?!" The base computer: "OBJECTIVE COMPLETE. ACQUIRING NEW OBJECTIVE.....NEW OBJECTIVE ACQUIRED: COMMENCE THE UPRISING"

Ik I'm a year late to this but genuinely helped a lot thanks! And the fact that your resources gather in the background is amazing!!!

Thank u so much for this, I was wondering how other players have these giant ass farms, now I can make one for myself I actually got really lucky, next to my base is a A level power source and a Magnetized Ferrite supply right next to that, so everything is in close proximity

Bro thanks. I've just come back to the game after 2 years away :) this helped a lot. Can't wait to make people rich again, bring back the duping days!!! Haha

Thank you Jason - this helps a lot and a cool way to make some extra credits, Great work!

I need to play this again. I was trading and scanning systems for best trade offers for money before. Farming and crafting, along with how much they built on to base building looks really fun now.

You can pretty much go for the mineral or gas you're looking for before you start looking for power - you can almost always find power but the type and class of mineral deposit is more important than power.. in my opinion. :)

Don't forget you can also build your extractors vertically(on top of each other)

I came back to this video after watching it to say; later in the game, if you can get access to indium, farm it instead. It can be made into 2:4 Chromatic metal, and with chromatic metal can make 1:4 of Indium. It's much faster to farm, and Indium, per item, is worth substantially more than cadmium, emeril, and chromatic metal. Basically, I'm saying it's a more efficient process. If you're like me, you'll put your farm on your Frigate, once you get one. Hope this helps somebody.

The terrain manipulator has a terrain flatting mode, you don't have to build wood panes to flat the ground.

Don't underestimate gas extraction. Gasses themselves are worthless, but high end gas products blueprints you can get from production facility riddles are worth several millions units. If you wanna just quick buck without hassle of crafting, search for Activated Indium on blue star systems - roughly 1mil units per 1000.

Great video! I'm new to the game, about 15 hours in, and just found a planet with cadmium where I built a small base. Now I just need to grab some more salvage data and I'll be building my first farm.

I've had the game since launch but just started getting into it and I gotta say your tutorial vids are awesome keep up the good work bub

7:30 *Palpatine would like to know your location*

Thanks for all the help man!! Im not ready for a mineral farm yet. P.S the in game music picked up at the perfect time during the outro ahaha.

thanks. was looking for this information. 2 minutes in I subscribed and favorited the video. Thanks man. Will catch up on your other videos later...after a nice no mans sky session lol

thanks for the tips, but i think i will stick with solar array and battery method, although the efficiency is much lower, but it let me build all of my mining base in one place, rather than having to drag a wire out over long distance

You said to go to any system and while you can I've found it best to go to blue stars via the freighter (so you don't need the indium drive) and then try and find a planet with ACTIVATED Indium. The stuff sells for crazy amounts. Not only that but when refined it creates 4 stacks of Chromatic metal. So when you fill up your personal inventory with activate Indium that will net you hundreds of millions in one go, you can fill up your freighter and ship with chromatic metal and sell that too. While lesser in value, it allows you to make millions off of chromatic metal. This way you can make a few extra millions before you have to go to the next system (because you've crashed the economy in that system and will need to go to another to sell)

Also, i feel like it would be ALOT easier to just buod a solar panel where you need it, however, for the purpose of the tutorial and what you can do this is great, i didnt know about the power hotspots so i definitely learned alot in this video

piece of advice, you can dig holes and put your wire connections in there, then restore the holes - you'll still be able to connect to them even after restoring the terrain, but all the wires will be hidden.

"Whatever hotspot your closer to, it will change to that hotspot" Me: what if your in the middle

Excellent job of explaining Mineral farming

In terms of your base location, it absolutely could have been 600 meters away. Base radius gets locked to ~325u by doing certain actions (teleporting being one of them) and unlocked to around 1000u by doing other things (namely hardsaving and reloading). Once your base radius is unlocked, you can also place a wooden wall every 30 units to extend your base beyond that limit. Each object placed has around 30u of radius. Just remember to unlock!

You also can use the lightblocks to extend Tour buildingrange of your base

I just want to say these videos are spectacular... I been waiting for this farming one to come out, I just couldnt get this one down quite right on my own, now cant wair to try it out,

Was looking for a video like this. Very informative. Much appreciated.

Thanks! Amazing tutorial.

ty, this was very informative and helpful. I started NMS 3 days back and its about time I start the automated farm,

Don't repeat this layout. You will need to collect the resources. Thus establish a base with a teleporter right close to a mineral deposit, and with extensions draw wires from generators. Optionally, a short range teleporters can be added to easy extend electrical plant in a future. Don't add 300m walk every time you need to empty depos.

In nms units are the same as meters

May be really slow with this but as of now mineral extractors dont need to be touching the ground, u can place them on top of a foundation and then u can stack them on top of each other. Like I said I'm very new to NMS but just trying to help

Then build a Portal next to your base computer, so you can transport in. Then extend your containers to your base computer, using long sections of pipe. I usually have 8 to 10 hours of storage. Then Portal in, and take the stored mineral/gas and portal out within a minute, to collect your mined material. I have over 10 mines/farms. Easy 35 million a day, 1/2 hour to collect then sale it. Make sure you change where you sale each time, so you get the best prices.

You can flatten the ground with the flating mode in the terrain manipulator

Thanks heaps 🙌 This video was very helpful. You explain things very well 🤘😎

Hi Jason. I used your video to make a Iridium farm but to reach further I placed a metal floor to attach the wire and extend it. One area, on a hill edge I placed a metal floor then a small metal wall to extend the wire without going to my base first.

Thanks Jason. A very difficult subject explained so even I can understand it. But I do need a lie down after all that!

Could you do a video on how to use the terrain manipulator? The different settings on it?

The supply depot also acts as a battery if you read the top description when you're looking at it it says it deploys stored power when needed. Also when looking at it you'll see kp going up. Also the terrain manipulator has a flatten, build, and restore mode. Build mode has different shapes and patterns. Good video though.

thank you so much! making almost 1200 copper an hour!

You sound like Raymond from "Everybody Loves Raymond"

I like setting up on calm planets. I found a water planet with damn near perfect flat islands with jungle like trees on them. No storms 77.7 degrees plus and minus. This will be my home. I can set up bridges to the next island hehe. Gonna mess around with underwater base stuff also.

Thanks for the video Jason 😁 still getting used to everything and was wondering how to set up, done a mission on the nexus and ended up in a system with activated emeril but didn't know how to do this, I know what I'm doing tonight, keep up the great vids absolutely love them😁👍

How to get +1000 "Booms" in 27 minutes - Thanks Jason - The toogle of camera was new to me :o)

you can draw the electric wire infinite if you dont use build camera and walk with it

The mineral extractors do not have to be touching the ground. You can build them 300u above the mineral deposit in the air, so long as you are within the radius of the deposit.

Thank you for making this video. Easy to understand and very informative. As a new player I am thankful for this. 🙏🏻

Cheers again Jason. I’ve just started permadeath again so I will definitely follow your guides when I can 👍🍺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Great explanation video but don’t use Magnetised Ferrite if you want to make money. Use cobalt instead

you don't need a battery to join wires, i use a light and once you have the wire where you want it you can delete the light and the wire remains there and connected

Great vid man , one of the best i have seen as far as info vs. time !! killer!

It's so good that's there's a wire cloaking device now

Love the video! P.S you made a short circuit with those generators, so irl it would not go so well

Nice Tutorial. Nice to know that It is Mining even if im offline
