selecting specific galaxy without a mod but with the editor

[BelanaJolinar]

soooo ... I found a way to select any galaxy I want without any mod and without jumping from galaxy to galaxy all you need is the nms save game editor and a list with the galaxy names and their distribution of planet types and hazards

 

there is a wiki with a list of the galaxies plus their distribution https://nomanssky.gamepedia.com/Galaxy

 

so, after you chose a galaxy you really want to go to you have two options 1) exit your current game while parked on a planet or 2) on an spacestation ...( this is important as to what you have to do later after a galaxy switch)

 

another important detail ... Euclid may appear in the list as number 1 but in the save-game history it is the number 0 (zero) ... so after you picked a galaxy take the number of it MINUS 1 ... like you choose number 30 Sudzerbal ... you have to use the number 29 in your save game.

 

ok ... first of all ... do a backup of your current savegame!!!! (just in case)

 

now you have to go to the editor, choose the game you want the galaxie changed then:

open the Edit raw JSON

klick on PlayerStateData ... the first folder is named "UniverseAdress"

klick on the plus to open folder

first topic you can see is the "RealityIndex"

click on it and you see a number on the right side, thats the number of the galaxy your in currently.

change the number into the one you want but dont forget!! MINUS 1 (if you want galaxy nr 30 put in nr 29)

save and exit

 

start the game ... now ... the next bit can be a little tricky.

if you exited you last game while parked on a space-station you will find yourself falling throu space and will soon die ... dont worry ... you will wake up in the spacestation with you spaceship parked beside you

just hopp in the ship and exit it right away again and voila ... all done ... the system your in now is likely to be almost in the same position the the one you where in the galaxy before like ... you where right in the middle of the galaxy so you are now right in the middle of the new galaxy

 

if you exited you last game while parked on a planet you will find yourself awakening on top of your spaceship in the middle of space ... now you dont need to die for this one, just go into the menu and restart the latest savegame ... when it has finished loading you will sit in the spaceship and just have to move forward, there will be a little invisible border you have to cross and which costs you some damage but not enough to die ... anyway ... make your way on a planet or spacestation, save the game and voila ... welcome to your new galaxy :D
