Exploring derelicts and selling the captains log and crew manifest to the scrap dealer are the only ways to get tainted metal I believe. And yes he can sell you things for said tainted metal, you can refine the metal to nanites at a 1-5 conversation. Derelicts are also (as far as I know) the only way to acquire freighter storage expansion and mods. And if you like what you got from a particular derelict you can use a scanner in the same system. Derelicts are absolutely worth exploring because the only real barriers to entry are the 5 mil price tag to buy the scanner

You can get tainted metal from the wheel barrows at autophage camps, but the logs are the only really reliable way to get a decent amount of it.

Tainted Metal can also be refined down into nanites with a much higher conversion rate than Runaway Mold (2:1 vs 5:1).

I got sick of dying from freezing etc so I’ve turned the difficulty down until I get used to it. I’ve traveled a lot on foot. I like that I will be able to play this game long term as it’s huge. Thanks for the tips.

You don’t need to keep getting the scanner’s. Activate the scanner then pulse jump after a derelict freighter shows up put the scanner in your personal refiner then land do the derelict and leave, after that pull the scanner out of your refiner and use it again. Cheese Forever.😊

You can destroy all the gunk around and then refine the resources into nanites too. Forget what exactly it drops but it's a little extra bonus if you feel like playing clean up

a tip for begginers ,you only need one of that and you can use it over and over again,first obtain derelict scanner and spawn it then land on target derelict freighters ,2nd after spawning/landing put derelict freighter scanner to your exosuit refinery(drag and drop it to your refiner) then go to entrance door and open it. once opened take out from your exosuit refiner and if you finished looting boost away far from first spawned derelict freighter and then you can use it again. you can do this as much as you like

You can also just grab that first chest on the ship and fly away to find another. Might be more to it, I saw it on reddit the other day.

The emergency scanner once used will give you a class of module once you get an S class technology module just rince and repeat it will give you the same class each time, So once you get an emergency scanner that gives S class module prize it with your life and just keep using it by using the exosuit refiner exploit.

Why don't you suggest to viewers that after you finish the first one, store all the loot on your frieghter, then on the next derelict freighter all materials you loot will automatically go to your freighter, you can loot for hours.

Not knowing is part of it but you also need the freight space. If you are running derelicts for freighter cargo then you probably don't have tons of space.

I think mine is glitched - I did the derelict freighter - did all the rooms, all the boxes in the quest checklist got checked - the game told me to get in my ship and go to a space station - I sold the cargo and crew manifest like it said - but the game keeps telling me to land on the derelict freighter - so I did it all again - same result - games still telling me to land on the derelict freigther

I’m new but I have found that pretty often if you don’t have a quest active when you complete it it can be hit or miss whether the game will retroactively trigger a completion. I could be completely off though I have < 50 hours in.

The freighter missions bug out all the time. If you start a new one, that will replace it, otherwise I just do other things and it eventually fixes itself to let me turn in the logs at another station.

This dialogue disconnect... The game says buy a "Scanner'... The dealer doesn't sell a scanner. Just random coordinates for $5,000,000. How is the player supposed to know that is what the game intends you to buy. Bad dialogue connection. Another is the fact, after you find out you only made around $1,000,000 from the first derelict and are told to sell the valuable manifests to the Scrap dealer.... the only option you see is to "Purchase Scrap" No sell button in the dialog window. This type of bad game dialogue disconnects is a travesty to game development.
